Chapter 367 Solvay (2)
Shortly after returning to the county government, it was dawn.
There was a noise outside, which seemed very confusing. It must be that Cui Xuanwei and others had already returned and were discussing countermeasures in the front office. Logically speaking, Yang Shouwen should have received the notice, but no one came to him to discuss it.
Cui Xuanwei, Gao Jian, Li Longji and others have inadvertently excluded him or marginalized him!
Before this, Yang Shouwen might have felt strange.
However, after talking to Lu Chengzhi, he realized that everyone in this team seemed to have secrets. Gao Jianru, Zhou Lizhenru, Li Longjiru, and even Pei Guangting also had their own little abacus.
In contrast, it seems that only Yang Sixu is simpler and willing to work with Yang Shouwen.
Fortunately, Yang Shouwen was mentally prepared. Although Cui Xuanwei and others excluded him, he did not feel disappointed. In fact, no one paid attention to him, so he would be more free to act.
Moreover, Yang Shouwen has more important things to consider.
Mingxiu asked him to meet at Qiufeng Pavilion in Su's Garden at the afternoon of You. How should he go?
This Mingxiu is really nonsense! You don’t even think about it. How could he go to Su’s Garden in his current situation?
"Alang, I don't think you have to worry too much about this."
"oh?"
"Since the other party has made an appointment with you, I think there will be some proper arrangements. The best way for us now is to wait."
wait!
Yang Shouwen thought about it and smiled.
Yes, now it seems that I can only wait, let’s see how Mingxiu will arrange it.
But this feeling of being completely kept in the dark and being controlled by Mingxiu every move was really uncomfortable. If he hadn't been Mingxiu, if he wasn't a child of the Ming clan of Jiangning, Yang Shouwen wouldn't have cooperated with his arrangements so obediently.
"By the way, when will Di Erlang arrive?"
"It takes half a day to leave Wudunzhai. I asked Di Guangyuan and the others to arrive in Changzhou in the afternoon."
"So. Hachiro will go and rest first, just let Mori stay with me."
Yang Shouwen looked at the white window paper and said to Lu Chengzhi.
This night was very hard for everyone. Yang Shouwen was a martial arts practitioner with a deep foundation and didn't care much. But Lu Chengzhi was a scholar and his think tank. It was not a good thing for Lu Chengzhi to endure like this.
Lu Chengzhi did not refuse, bowed and left the room.
Yang Shouwen leaned against the couch and picked up the book "Wuzhong Miscellaneous Stories" from the table.
In the room, there was silence.
Suddenly, a snoring sounded.
When Yang Shouwen looked, he saw Yang Moli lying on the small bed in the corner, snoring like thunder.
He slept very sweetly, and during the snoring, he would make a sound of smacking his lips from time to time, which made Yang Shouwen couldn't help laughing.
Pick up a blanket from the couch, walked to Yang Moli, and covered him with the blanket.
However, the guy's snoring was too loud, which made Yang Shouwen not in the mood to continue watching, so he sat cross-legged on the couch and silently recited the Diamond Sutra in his heart, and soon entered a state of ethereal and trance. Grandfather Yang Dafang once said that the Golden Toad Guidance Technique was originally the practice method of the Qi Refiner on Wudang Mountain, and it had extremely mysterious effects.
In the past, Yang Shouwen was confused and had a simple mind, so it was not difficult to enter into meditation.
Now he woke up. It was not as easy as before to enter into meditation. However, Yang Shouwen had his own way. Every time he recited the Diamond Sutra silently, he could enter into meditation quickly. Yang Moli's snoring disappeared, and Yang Shouwen seemed to have lost consciousness. The golden toad guidance technique that he had practiced hard since childhood also operated on his own in this unconscious state.
I don’t know how long it has passed since this meditation has entered into meditation.
When Yang Shouwen woke up, it was already dawn.
The sun shone into the room through the window, which also made the room look particularly warm.
At this moment, a drop of water fell on the tip of Yang Shouwen's nose. He raised his head and saw a drop of water on the beam above his head. Where did the water come from? Yang Shouwen was stunned for a moment, and raised his body and jumped onto the beam of the room.
It turned out that a piece of tile on the roof broke and the water droplets dripped from the gaps in the tile.
Yang Shouwen breathed a sigh of relief and was about to jump off the beam of the room, but suddenly his heart moved, revealing a thoughtful look.
He squatted on the beam of the room for a while, then jumped down, walked out of the room.
"Alang, are you going out?"
Outside the door, Fei Fugui came over with his toiletries. When he saw Yang Shouwen coming out, he hurriedly put down the toiletries and bowed to ask.
Yang Shouwen had something to do in his heart, so he nodded at Fei Fugui, "Follow me."
"Here!"
Fei Fugui didn't know what happened, so he hurriedly followed Yang Shouwen and followed the winding path and soon arrived at the study in the back garden. Yao Sanlang was cleaning the room with his people. When he saw Yang Shouwen coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"What is this for?"
"Governor Cui said that the imperial envoy is here and he wants to clean the room.
The villain brought people to clean early this morning, after all, the room was indeed a bit unclean."
Everyone seemed to be busy with Di Guangyuan's arrival. However, Yang Shouwen didn't care about this, but walked into the study and said to Yao Sanlang: "You are here, hurry up and find someone to get me a ladder."
"ladder?"
Yao Sanlang was stunned for a moment, revealing a look of doubt.
However, he was a person who had served Wang Yuankai after all, and knew very well that at this time, it was best not to ask too much.
"Please wait, the villain will go and get the ladder."
Yao Sanlang said and ran out.
After a while, he carried a wooden ladder and ran in panting, "Zhengshilang, where is the ladder?"
Yang Shouwen pointed his hand at the side of the bed and said in a deep voice: "Let it be here."
Yao Sanlang walked forward without saying a word and placed the ladder.
In his puzzled gaze, Yang Shouwen didn't say anything nonsense. He climbed up along the ladder and quickly climbed to the top of the ladder. He stood on the ladder and looked at the beam above his head. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Fugui, give me a knife."
"good!"
Fei Fugui quickly climbed up the ladder and pulled out a dagger from his waist.
Yang Shouwen took it, scraped it twice on the beam, then wiped it with his fingers, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it.
Those heroic eyebrows were raised twice, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of Yang Shouwen's mouth.
He jumped off the ladder and said in a deep voice: "Sanlang, the paint on the beam of the room seems to be newly applied, what's going on?"
As he spoke, his eyes glanced at the ground.
Yao Sanlang hurriedly said, "Report to Zhengshilang, this beam has indeed been painted again.
However, it seems that this should be in March... That day, the county master saw that the paint of the beam had fallen off and looked very ugly, so he asked someone to put it on again. Well, it was March 27, and the villain remembered it very clearly."
"Who found the painter?"
"Oh, the renovation of the county government office has always been a work done by Li Daquan, Li Chouzi, the north of the city. Although Li Chouzi is not very convenient, his skills are top-notch. The county magistrate is also very satisfied with him, and he is looking for him to do such work.
Senshiro, are there any problems?”
Yang Shouwen thought for a while, shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing, I'm just a little curious... Okay, if you keep cleaning, I won't delay you."
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving Yao Sanlang standing there, looking at his back, at a loss.
When she returned to the room, Yang Moli was awake.
He was sitting up from the bed, rubbing his eyes, with a confused expression on his face.
"Alang, where have you been?"
Seeing Yang Shouwen walk in, Yang Moli grinned.
"Yang Moli, if you still feel sleepy, go back to the house to sleep."
"Alang doesn't sleep, and Yang Moli doesn't sleep either!"
Yang Shouwen looked at the honest and honest face and suddenly felt the urge to complain: I don’t know who was snoring and snoring in the early morning.
Just then, footsteps came outside the house.
Li Longji walked into the house with a smile on his face. When he saw Yang Shouwen, he said, "Qingzhi, you are here... I have an invitation here, which was sent by Su Wei to invite us to the banquet. But we couldn't get rid of ourselves, so we had to bother you to work hard. It just so happened that Qingzhi, you were yesterday... Why not go and test it yourself, so you won't be suspicious."
"Let me see Su Wei?"
After hearing this, Yang Shouwen was stunned for a moment.
In my mind, Mingxiu's invitation suddenly echoed: Today is the hour of You, the Su family garden Qiufeng Pavilion, see you all the time...
How could this guy know that I would go to Qiufeng Pavilion? (To be continued.)
