Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Xuyuan only said a few words.

She didn't tell it all, but she really hated it the most.

Especially places far away from the capital.

Some county magistrates even regarded themselves as little emperors.

Beiyao did not answer, but asked: "What happened in the school?"

He noticed that Xuyuan had never been to the school during this time.

He thought Xu Yuan was worried about him, but he never imagined that something happened in the school.

"On the day Miss Song left, a fire broke out in the school for no apparent reason, killing more than a dozen people, including the teacher. Cheng Zhicheng, the man who recognized my father as his teacher, escaped from the school. He saw with his own eyes that someone in black lit a smoke screen and set the fire. However, the county government not only arrived too late and did not put out the fire, but also gave the most ridiculous explanation, which was - it was a fire."

Xu Yuan smiled, but his smile was a little cold, more like sarcasm, "Tell me, who is the person that the county magistrate wants to protect?"

"The Song family." Bei Yao said.

People in Sishui County couldn't understand why the people in the private school died.

But when he heard those three words from Song Xiujing, he already understood.

Song Xiujing once studied in a private school. She was already fourteen years old. In Tianqi, girls were not allowed to study in the same class with boys after they turned ten.

The Song family took this concubine's daughter back to marry off in place of the legitimate daughter.

If the news spread that she had sat at the same table with a man in Sishui County, it would be an insult to the royal dignity.

Therefore, no information about this matter can be leaked.

It was Xu Yuan's suggestion to let Song Xiujing go to private school.

It was for this reason that Beiyao asked Shen Yichuan to go to the academy as well, secretly letting Song Xiujing have some understanding of the situation in the capital.

Bei Yao looked at Xu Yuan and for a moment he didn't even know how to tell him the cruel truth.

"So, why can the Taiwei Mansion kill people without following the law?"

After making the wish, he fell silent.

What's more, she had also reminded Song Xiujing that she should not reveal anything about her studies to others.

Therefore, Xu Yuan didn't know whether he had misjudged Song Xiujing, or whether it was someone else who was acting through the Song family, or whether there were other unknown secrets involved.

But she will definitely seek justice for the man in the private school.

for sure.

No matter who is behind the crime.

"The Grand Commandant is one of the Three Dukes. He holds military power and naturally has a say."

Beiyao Road.

And, he didn't say it.

If the Grand Marshal Song Tianming wanted the magistrate of Sishui County to die, it would only take a flick of his finger.

He doesn't even need to do it himself, there will be countless people who want to curry favor with the Song family to do it for him.

This is true for all those in high positions.

Otherwise, why would so many people be vying to become officials in the court?

Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.

The scholar is the leader.

“But human life is not something to be taken lightly.” After Xu Yuan said this, the aura around him turned cold.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and occasionally a snowflake fell into the palm of her hand.

Xu Yuan came back to his senses, forced himself to pull away from the painful memories, and said: "One day, I will change the current situation. I don't seek fame, but I just want to have a clear conscience."

The food is cold.

Xu Yuan stood up and said, "Wait for me for a moment, I'll pack up and go back together."

There is only one horse.

Xu Yuan was not so kind as to let Beiyao ride away. Similarly, she also felt a little reluctant to let her ride away alone and leave Beiyao here.

Bei Yao looked at Xu Yuan's back and said softly, "Then I hope you and I will have another chance to meet in the capital."

-

After Xu Yuan finished packing, Bei Yao was already waiting in the yard.

The snow has been falling for a long time and there is already a lot of snow on the ground.

Xu Yuan went to cut some grass for the horse. After feeding the horse, he went to the inner room to find a veiled hat and handed it to Bei Yao, saying, "It's better to take precautions before it happens. After all, your life is worth a thousand ounces of gold."

Although the people from Zhuifengtang should not continue to send assassins.

But Xu Yuan also always remembered that when she said the county magistrate was searching for Song Bo's whereabouts, she wanted to leave, and Bei Yao did not refuse.

Perhaps, there is more than one group of people chasing Bei Yao.

Hearing the words "ten thousand ounces of gold", Bei Yao said, "You are wrong. Ten thousand ounces of gold cannot buy my life."

Because he is the third prince.

People call him Third Master.

Trying to buy his life with a ton of gold is really an insult to him.

Hearing this, Xu Yuan said, "I didn't expect you to think highly of yourself."

“That’s the truth.”

Beiyao said this and took the veil and put it on.

Sishui County is close to the desert, and the wind and sand are strong, so most of the local people wear veil hats.

It is most convenient for him.

Xu Yuan went to get the horse and was about to mount it, but Bei Yao had already mounted it.

The man sat on the horse, looked down at him and said, "I'll carry you."

"Your injuries are almost healed, and you feel more confident now."

Xu Yuan muttered to herself, but even so she still held Bei Yao's hand and sat behind the horse.

Bei Yao said: "Hold it tightly."

Xuyuan didn't reply, just nodded.

The next moment, Xu Yuan felt like he was flying out like an arrow.

Beiyao rides a horse completely different from her.

Beiyao was running even faster, so fast that Xuyuan felt that the biting cold wind had turned into ice knives, blowing directly on her face.

The wind was strong and there was snow mixed in.

Xu Yuan lowered his head and hid behind Bei Yao, and quietly retracted his hands to avoid frostbite.

Feeling the movement behind him, Bei Yao paused and slowed down a bit.

But when we arrived in Sishui County, it was already dark.

Make a wish to return the horse.

Beiyao went to rent a horse.

Relying on the fact that he was wearing a veil hat, Beiyao also bought himself a lot of clothes.

Xu Yuan looked at the increasing amount of things on the horse's back and said speechlessly, "Luckily I brought enough money, otherwise I would have to keep you here."

Beiyao had no money, so Beiyao bought things in front and Xuyuan followed behind to pay.

"I'll return it to you later."

Bei Yao took a look at the things on the horse's back and thought that they were almost done, so he said, "Let's go and get Zhang Yue's clothes."

Beiyao no longer planned to stay any longer.

Buying it now means that you can leave right away after getting the things for Zhang Yue.

"Row."

Make a wish and nod.

There were many pedestrians on the street, and it was snowing, so many children were running in the snow.

Bei Yao did not ride the horse. The two of them walked quietly from one side of the street to the other.

Xu Yuan said: "Shen Renyao, if I go to the capital in the future, will I see you again?"

After saying this, Xu Yuan himself fell silent.

As for Shen Yichuan, she tried to avoid him as much as possible, as she only wanted to protect the Shen family.

Maybe it was because they had been together day and night during this period, she couldn't say such words to Shen Renyao.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan suddenly felt a little sad.

The pain overflowed from her heart, catching her off guard.

"The chances are slim, but if you are willing to become Third Master's disciple, we still have a chance to become colleagues."

At this point, Beiyao no longer wanted to force himself to make a wish.

What the wisher thinks and what he does lead to the same destination.

He and Xuyuan will not become enemies.

"I will not become the Third Master's disciple." Xu Yuan said, then stopped and said seriously: "In this case, I wish Mr. Shen in advance that he can realize his ambitions in Sishui County."

Bei Yao was about to agree, but suddenly felt that the wish sounded a little sad.

He said, "I'll borrow your good words."

Xuyuan nodded and said nothing more.

Bei Yao saw this and said, "But if you want to see me in the capital in the future, just let Shen Yichuan tell me. If you encounter any trouble, you can also go to him directly. I said that I will keep you safe. As long as you don't do anything against the law, I will protect you."

This is his promise.

This was also the first time he made such a big promise.
