Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Xuyuan heard his own heart pounding.

Bei Yao's breath was just above her head, appearing and disappearing, which made her even more excited.

I dare not move when making a wish.

Beiyao supported himself on the ground. Seeing that Xuyuan had no intention of getting up, he endured the pain and said, "Xuyuan, are you going to send me directly to see the King of Hell?"

Don't look.

Beiyao knew that the wound that Xu Wenxian had bandaged had opened again.

Curiosity really kills.

If he died today, it would not be Xu Yuan's fault, but his own.

After hearing Bei Yao's words, Xu Yuan came to his senses, quickly got up, and relit the candlestick.

Bei Yao was still lying on the ground, his gray clothes were a little wet, probably because he was bleeding.

She was silent for a moment, her cheeks tinged with a blush, "Excuse me, I'll go get my dad to come over and rebandage you."

"no need."

Bei Yao shook his head, then stretched out a hand and said, "Help me up. This injury is nothing serious."

Last night, Xuyuan should have brought him back in the early morning.

With moving people, changing medicine and washing clothes, Xuyuan's parents and uncle and aunt probably didn't have much rest.

Those people finally got a good night's sleep tonight, and Bei Yao didn't want to disturb them.

"then you……"

"It's ok."

"alright."

Beiyao said so, and Xuyuan did not continue to force him. She supported Beiyao and helped him to her bed, while advising him: "I'll be here tonight. If you feel uncomfortable, just call me."

"Don't watch over me, I'm fine."

Beiyao finished speaking and saw clearly what book Xuyuan was reading. He added, "It's dark at night, don't read. It hurts your eyes. You should go to bed early."

"There are too many things to do during the day. It's rare to have some quiet time, so we must not waste it. Besides, I'm not here just to watch over you. I also live in this room. The bed you're lying on now is my bed."

Xu Yuan looked at Bei Yao and said seriously, "But it doesn't matter. You are a patient. I will sleep on my brother's bed tonight."

Beiyao: “…”

After a long silence, Bei Yao pointed to the bed he lay on during the day, then pointed to the couch under him, and asked, "You and your brother, in the same room?"

It should not be a room. This room also serves as a study.

"Mr. Shen is from the capital, so he naturally doesn't know the real life of poor families. In Sishui County, my family is already considered good. Some even live together, not to mention two brothers."

After making the wish, his eyes dimmed.

"It is said that Hanzhou is the northern border defense line of Tianqi, more important than Shuozhou, and Sishui County is even more important. However, who knows that the people of Sishui County are short of food and clothing in the midst of war, and they don't even have basic warmth."

This is what is called, the emperor is far away.

The county magistrate did not take care of the matter and the general was stationed outside the city.

Officials and businessmen in the city colluded with each other, disregarded the law, and covered the sky with one hand.

Bei Yao fell silent after hearing this.

Naturally, he had seen quite a few along the way.

The bedroom fell silent for a long time. Just when Xuyuan thought Beiyao would not speak, she heard Beiyao speak.

"Make a wish. I promise you that when I return to Beijing, I will definitely change the current situation in Sishui County. If one year doesn't work, then two years. If two years doesn't work, then ten years. I will definitely give you a prosperous Sishui County."

Xu Yuan suddenly laughed, "Mr. Shen, this promise cannot be given lightly."

Bei Yao frowned, "You don't believe me?"

"It is precisely because I trust you that I hope you won't make promises so easily, just like when you asked me to lead the way and gave me the city defense map I wanted, and when you made a deal with me last night, I saved you and you kept my brother safe. I know that you will fulfill your promise no matter what it is, so I hope you won't live for this promise, Mr. Shen, you need to be yourself."

Beiyao understood the meaning of making a wish.

The reason for making the wish was that he felt that he was young now and should not be bound by a promise.

After thinking for a while, Bei Yao said, "How do you know that this is not what I want to do?"

"If you want to do this, I shouldn't stop you, but I hope this matter has nothing to do with me, let alone to fulfill your promise to me."

"Why?"

"I can't let you live your future for me. This love is too precious. I can't bear it, and I can't pay it back."

"Then what do you think?" Bei Yao looked at Xu Yuan, "I've already told you what I want to do. Don't you want to do the same thing as me? You were born in Sishui County, so you should understand how important it is to accomplish this."

"Mr. Shen, do you want to recruit me into your gang?" Xu Yuan asked.

"Yes." Bei Yao nodded, "You are a rare talent. No one wants to let such a talent go."

"But I made the wish first, and then the wish of Sishui County. I know that behind Mr. Shen is the Third Prince Beiyao. I have things I want to do, and I will not consider anything else until I have accomplished my goal."

Almost instantly, Bei Yao thought of the Xu family.

He has been testing whether Xu Yuan is a descendant of the Xu family.

Now it seems almost correct.

Because there is no such coincidence in the world.

If she is really a descendant of the Xu family, this can also explain why Xu Yuan is so smart at such a young age.

With Xu Wenxian as a father, Xu Yuan’s wish would not be too far off.

Thinking of this relationship, Bei Yao said, "I can help you."

"How can you help me?"

"I don't know what you are going to do, but if you choose to be my companion, in the future, even if what you want to do is rebellious and you are put in prison, I will rescue you."

Bei Yao paused for a moment before continuing, "Make a wish. You know I never make promises easily. This promise is the greatest sincerity I can give you. I have never made a promise to anyone else. It is only you."

The person who made a wish suddenly skipped a beat.

She looked at Bei Yao, stunned, not knowing what to say.

Shen Yichuan had said something similar before.

However, the sentence was: "If you want to seek shelter, San Ye is your only choice."

This was the first time since Xuyuan was reborn that he felt protected by someone other than his family.

She was somewhat moved, but she still said, "But I also remember that it was Master Shen who said he couldn't protect me."

Bei Yao thought of what he said last time to test Xu Yuan, and said frankly: "The present is different from the past, and the feelings between you and me are also different."

"Mr. Shen and I have only met once, where does the affection come from?"

Bei Yao dodged for a moment, but finally did not force it any further. He smiled and said, "In that case, I wish you to complete what you want to do as soon as possible."

"I hope so too." Xuyuan nodded.

Beiyao stopped talking and made a wish to continue reading.

But no matter how she calmed down, Bei Yao's shadow kept turning over and over in her mind.

Beiyao is such a nice person.

Thinking of the pounding heartbeat, Xu Yuan simply put down his pen and turned back to Bei Yao and said, "Mr. Shen, my family is indeed a bit poor. I will go to the inn tomorrow and you can recuperate here from now on."

Beiyao was reading a wishing book to kill time. When he heard Xuyuan's words, he didn't understand what was going on and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Because..." You're so nice.

The words came to her lips, but Xu Yuan couldn't say them. Thinking of what happened in the military camp today, she sorted out her thoughts and said, "I offended someone today, and I'm afraid it will be bad for you. Stay away from me, and you will be safe."
