Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson
Chapter 177: Opening the Roof
Li Yuan hummed softly, inaudibly.
If there are enough absurd things in this world, then there is nothing strange about them. If you want to open a window and people don't agree, then open the roof. They will do everything they can to ask you to open a window.
Things are nothing more than that.
After Li Yuan made that sound, there was no more movement. Jiu Lan stayed in the room for a while and suddenly shuddered.
It turned out that a few years ago, the boss had already been planning on having an affair with Madam Wei.
How old was he then? How did he manage to think about so many things?
Jiulan has always known how terrifying Li Yuan is, but today Li Yuan seems to have refreshed her perception. Even though she is fearless, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
On the fifth day, Li Yuan was dealing with the tenant farmers. Yizhou City seemed peaceful and orderly, but underneath the order was the intertwined power of the Jiang family.
This force allowed it to infiltrate Yizhou from top to bottom, and even gained unimaginable benefits in such a small city like Yizhou.
"Master, there is a letter from the mansion."
Standing in front of Li Yuan was the deputy who managed the tenants, who had been killed by him. The current deputy was trembling as he did his job, and every time he was called in by Li Yuan, his legs trembled.
He had failed to complete something before and thought he would be scolded and fired, but halfway through he received a letter saying...
The deputy cautiously raised his eyes and looked at Li Yuan, who had been silent for a long time, wanting to know what he was doing.
Unexpectedly, I saw City Lord Li's mouth corners slightly raised, with a faint smile in his eyes.
He saw this man, whom he had met twice and who was said to be swift and ruthless, folded the letter neatly, put it in the envelope, opened the drawer under the table, and placed the envelope in it.
Because the table was low, Li Yuan's movements could be seen clearly. When the drawer was pulled out, the contents were neatly arranged with only a few letters.
When Li Yuan looked at him again, his tone was cold, but much better than before.
"You are the first person to manage the tenants. If you do a good job, you will be promoted. But if you don't do a good job, you will lose your head."
The deputy nodded in agreement, and Li Yuan added, "Perhaps you should meet her. She might have some advice for you."
Then he rejected himself: "Forget it, if he really wants to reform or something like that, he will come to you if he wants."
The tenant farmer continued to say that he did not dare to ask who "she" was, nor did he dare to ask when that person would come to see him.
On the sixth day, there were no more people coming in and out, and most of the people who came were insignificant. Sometimes Jiu Lan and Dong Hui would kidnap some people along the way.
See if they can solve it. Those that can be solved will be solved by Li Yuan. If they cannot solve it, they can only wake up the sleeping Li Yuan.
When Wei Qiqi arrived, Li Yuan was sleeping in his clothes on a few stools put together. He had his arms crossed over his chest, his beard was untidy and he looked a little haggard.
Of course, she wasn't in much better condition either. When Jiu Lan first saw her, he was shocked and almost didn't recognize her.
Wei Qiqi was a typical case of illness that came and went like a mountain. The medicine she took to reduce fever and suppress the cold had already taken effect, but she had not recovered completely.
Sometimes when the wind is strong or I am a little excited, I will cough a few times, and my fair skin will appear even paler.
"Madam Wei, why are you so thin?"
Jiu Lan stepped forward and hugged Wei Qiqi first, his hands were full of bones, and he couldn't help but frowned and said.
"You are too thin. You can't continue like this for long."
Wei Qiqi nodded and said, "I just got sick. I don't know why, but I always lose so much weight whenever I'm sick."
Even though they lowered their voices, they still alarmed Li Yuan. When Li Yuan stood up from his seat, he looked at Wei Qiqi.
"I heard that you haven't rested for several days, so I came here to urge you to come."
Wei Qiqi looked at Li Yuan. Although she thought there was an extremely awkward situation between the two of them, after all they had been together for many years, she couldn't help but show concern for him.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think that this person broke the window because he was sure that she would come over and be soft-hearted at this moment.
"I have too many things to do, so I can't take care of it." Li Yuan answered, and he stood up, looking a little surprised and embarrassed. Thinking of the two days of sleepless nights and the slovenly clothes, he couldn't help frowning.
"No matter how many things you have to deal with, you only have one life. If you get hurt while dealing with things, it's a small matter, but if you die suddenly, it's not worth it."
Jiu Lan couldn't help but ask, "What kind of death is sudden death?"
"Sudden death due to palpitations caused by exertion."
Jiulan seemed to understand this explanation, but when Li Yuan looked at her, she made a face and retreated.
Now there were only two of them left, and the atmosphere became very awkward for a moment.
The emotional issues between the two of them were not resolved, and then there was this vague ambiguity.
If it had happened before, she would have felt very uncomfortable, but now, she felt like she had given up.
She found a seat and sat down, then she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qiniang, I'll go first..."
Li Yuan was simply unable to let go of his face. He had never appeared in front of her in this image before, especially when he revealed his feelings to her, he paid even more attention to his appearance.
Who would have thought that he had not anticipated her arrival and would appear like this in front of her.
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you here."
After getting the response, Li Yuan smiled and his whole state slowly began to return to sobriety.
Wei Qiqi stayed in the calculation room. Not long after she heard Li Yuan go out, two footsteps stopped at the door of the calculation room. Then the maid who followed her also stood at the door through the window.
Thinking that these things were ordered by Li Yuan, Wei Qiqi couldn't help but lower her eyelids.
The calculation room looked clean, but the things were indeed a bit messy. There were footprints of different sizes on the ground, and the seats were not arranged neatly.
If Li Yuan was full of energy, he would not have neglected these things, nor would he have looked like that just now. I guess he has been busy with many important things these days.
She looked towards the calculation room. There was a sand table in the middle, and a rough map of the cities around Yizhou was hung in front of it. Under the map was a desk.
The direction of the war is centered around sand table simulations.
The others were a few chairs that Li Yuan had put together for a temporary rest.
She was bored, so she looked around the calculation room carefully. There were a few lines of words written on the paper on the table, which were Li Yuan's notes.
Penetrating the paper backing.
They are all names.
She didn't see anyone who looked familiar and guessed that they might be important people in Yizhou.
He raised his hand to gather the papers on the table, ready to use something to suppress it.
After opening the drawer, his eyebrows twitched slightly when he saw what was inside.
She picked up a letter that was dated today.
Combining the first and last time, it is the date from when Li Yuan left her to today.
Li Yuan monitored her?
