"Don't be afraid, I'm just talking to you casually." The governor's eyes were a little gloomy, and he looked at the rain outside in a daze.
"The magician used secret methods to observe me. My poor life in my early years has weakened a lot of my vitality. There are many hidden dangers that cannot be replenished by medicine and stones. This body has only ten years to live. As for me, I don't have much time...
"
"It's all in the past. No one has died since ancient times. Even Jinshi and heavenly beings have fallen countless times. We have worked hard all our lives to have a pure gold god position, which is no less than that of many heavenly beings..."
"Someone advised me that as a governor, you only need to stand on the chessboard and reconcile all parties to gain an invincible position. Once you get involved in the chess game, you will be in a situation of life and death..."
"That makes sense. I'm old. I'm used to acting with the dignity of the court. I don't feel as cold as I did back then... No matter how lucky I am, I don't have the spirit of my youth..."
"But in the lower earth world, enjoying the youth and strength of Cao Cao's body... Being so young has become a kind of enjoyment, and there is a lot of unwillingness..."
After saying that, the governor pinched the maid's face. In her panicked eyes, he followed her smooth skin down to her neck, breasts, waist...feeling her youthful vitality.
"I'm so envious..." The governor laughed, then sighed with emotion, while the maid's eyes were filled with fear, and her voice was filled with sorrow and tears: "Master, please spare my life..."
The Governor stared at her beautiful eyes as pure and crystal clear as a young deer, and many memories flooded his heart. As soon as he exhaled the power in his palm, the maid slid down softly and fell to the ground without making a sound.
One of the housekeepers sensed a strange movement above and rushed up: "Master, what are your orders..."
He looked at the maid's body on the ground and stopped talking.
"Carry it down." The governor waved his hand sadly.
"Go and tell Prince Xin's envoy that I will meet him at the Qinglou."
"This... the master of the house, didn't he say he won't see you?" The old housekeeper was sweating. This messenger from the county king had been rejected twice, but this new messenger had tenacity and insisted on staying in the house.
At this time, traces will be clearly revealed as soon as you let go, and it will not be so easy to talk about it.
"Go ahead, at this point, what else do I have to be reserved about?" The governor waved his hand and said, already making some decisions.

It was daybreak, close to noon, and just after he finished speaking, Ye Qing's face became a little dark when he saw Diao Chan going down.
Cao Baijing, who had been sitting there, stepped forward and asked: "Although the hidden danger is gone, it is always inappropriate to have two souls in one body. How should we deal with this?"
Ye Qing was actually thinking about this problem secretly in his heart, and said in his mouth: "We will discuss this matter later, there will always be a way."
While he was meditating, Qianqian asked: "The other world is just evolution, does it also have a soul?"
Ye Qing smiled and said: "Of course there is, but the world here is thin and ordinary souls may not be able to form, but there may be something above red."
Seeing someone coming, he smiled again: "No more words, the banquet is about to start, we will talk later."
So everyone got up together and followed Ye Qing into a living room. They saw a few tables inside, a screen not far away, and a small bookshelf. Below it was a small table with pens, inkstones, and papers.
.
Everyone was drinking tea and talking not far away. When they saw Ye Qing coming out, they couldn't help but feel solemn and fell silent for a while.
When Ye Qing came to see him, except for Yin Zishen, He Mao and several friends were all his friends, so he smiled and said: "No need to be polite, I remember hearing that Brother Li is coming (Li Huaiji), why don't you see him?"
He Mao saw Ye Qing looking at him and smiled hurriedly: "Huaiji is here. I just said that I wanted to visit your forest garden. It's a rare opportunity."
Ye Qing smiled after hearing this: "Gardening is just a hobby. Brother Li wants to come to visit, so just come, and you guys just come, I'm afraid no friends will come."
"You are really generous, Mr. No. 2. If I had known, I would have been here earlier." Yin Zi said with a deep smile, "Actually, I also wanted to visit the garden just now."
Originally, both of them loved to joke, but when they met, there was no trace of it, and even Ye Qing's status was lower. Now Ye Qing is the second-ranked scholar, a seventh-rank scholar, and a viscount, so there are some invisible rules.
Before I finished, I heard someone say: "I'm fascinated by this garden. It's really hard for me to come back."
As soon as everyone saw it, they knew it was Li Huaiji.
Li Huaiji had a strong nature. He had carried the mountain god back then, so he could maintain his true character. He heard He Mao smile and said: "You are finally here. The banquet is almost ready. If you don't come, you won't be able to catch up."
When Ye Qing saw everyone coming, he said: "Don't listen to him, but you are here just in time for the banquet."
Following the instructions, when the food and wine arrived, a banquet for one person was arranged, which meant one person had one seat. The living room was filled to the brim. At a glance, there were eight kinds of dishes on the table, neatly arranged.
When Li Huaiji entered the banquet, he laughed and said: "As expected of the second best, there are delicacies from the mountains, seafood, and fine wine. It's really a sumptuous banquet. I won't go home until I'm drunk today."
Ye Qing saw seven or eight family representatives on the left, and Lu Shangjing, Jiang Chen, Ji Caizhu, Zhang Fangbiao, and Zhou Feng on the right. They looked like they were all in one place, either heroic, elegant, dignified, or wise, and he was secretly happy.
.
Feeling the slightest bit of luck, I even thought to myself: "What happened now and then, I was ranked second in the junior high school, and the foundation was not enough. Everyone was still waiting and watching. Now it is getting better, and there are foreigners who have come to join me. Although these people can't be said to have taken refuge.
, not even a formal vassal, but at least an ally on behalf of the family."
Seeing traces of red air seeping out from the outside, although it was not much, it made the Ye family a little stronger. He sat down, smiled heartily, and said: "This county is in a mountainous area, and the treasures of the mountains are already there, and across the sea
After traveling thousands of miles, treasures in water may be found, but treasures in the sea are rare. I had no idea at first, but this year someone brought it to me. Come and sit down and enjoy a cup."
Everyone knows that this Haizhen was sent by the Shuifu system. Although Lord Long is only the king of one lake, the entire water system is connected. Of course there will be no problem with Haizhen. Sending it at this time is a kind of support.
Everyone was thoughtful at that moment. They took their seats and took turns to drink. The host and guest were all enjoying themselves.
After getting drunk, Li Huaji went back to his accommodation and went to sleep. When he woke up, it was night. He rolled over and saw someone coming in. There was someone behind him who was jumping with a food box. When he took a closer look, it was He Mao.
Li Huaji couldn't help being surprised and asked: "What are you doing? I can't do it anymore if I drink anymore."
"Come and talk to you." He Mao smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed: "Don't worry, tonight there are only dishes and no wine. We will have tea instead of wine, and there will also be fish soup. It's really sobering up."
Li Huaiji clapped and laughed: "Okay, I happen to be thirsty, come on, come on, put it on the table."
Before He Mao could reply, a servant and a maid came forward to set the dishes. The dishes were mainly vegetarian, with a little bit of fishy meat, which was just in line with the taste at this time. There was also a large plate with smoke coming out and a fragrant aroma.
He Mao slightly leaned over and sat across from Li Huaji. Li Huaji's eyes lit up and he laughed: "I'm sober and I'm hungry now."
After saying that, he stretched out his chopsticks to pick out a piece from the plate, blew on it and ate it. He also scooped up a spoonful of soup and tasted it. When he saw that it was like milk, he couldn't help but praise: "Good"
He Maoji smiled slightly and used it slowly along with him. Li Huaji ate some more, then wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "If you have nothing to do, you must come to the palace. You must have something to do here."
"It's really okay. I just heard that you were a little angry?" He Mao said with a smile.
Li Huaiji was startled and secretly worried that He Mao was well-informed. He continued to take out a piece of tofu and said: "You are well-informed, so I won't hide it from you. Although I won the scholarship, I offended the Qian family and the county magistrate."
, I’m just a side branch of the Li family, I don’t receive much care, I got a little angry, and I came here to relax when I was angry.”
Li Huaji couldn't help but smile after hearing this: "This is your temper. You may be good at heart, but it's hard to deal with your temper, or have you offended others because of it? But if you are elected, it will be different. The Li family
No matter how great you are, you will still be used; no matter how great the county magistrate is, you will still be given some face."
Li Huaiji nodded after hearing this, but sighed and said: "I won the scholarship, and I feel that my blood has dried up. Jiayou has also used up. I'm afraid it will be difficult to win again."
He Mao smiled: "I'm not the same. This time I was lucky enough to be a scholar. I finally secured my position as the head of the family. The clan is quite supportive. As for being elected as an official, it's really a dream. I have to find another way out.
."
Li Huaiji smiled after hearing this and said, "Brother He, what do you think is the way out?"
"What do you think of the Ye family?" He Mao asked.
"Okay, are you the lobbyist for the No. 2 candidate?" Li Huaiji pointed and smiled.
"Not yet, but I do have that in mind. Ye Qing is now the second-ranked scholar, the seventh-rank Hanlin, and a viscount. Why, are you still too young?"
Li Huaji really thought about it seriously and smiled: "It seems to be a bit too small and has a weak foundation."
He Mao took a sip of wine, ate another bite of fish, and smiled: "Only with a weak foundation do you have a chance. Otherwise, if all the positions in the big family are full, what chance would you have?"
"It's true that it's a little small. If it were a few decades ago, the dragon would have to lie down and the tiger would have to crouch. Even if he was the second-ranked Duke, the seventh-rank Hanlin, or a viscount, I would still think it was a little small. After all, the development prospects are limited.
Unless we, Duke No. 2, lay the foundation, transform into gods, achieve great success, and then become true immortals."
"These steps may seem simple, but it is difficult to achieve them, but it is different now. I see that the world is becoming more and more uneven - this is where heroes come into play."
"Do you think Ye Qing can't make further progress in this current situation?"
Li Huaiji was startled. After hearing this, he thought about it carefully and said, "Since you are so optimistic about it, why don't you invest in it yourself?"
"Hey, I have wanted to do this for a long time. Unfortunately, I am the head of the family and represent the family. Even if I agree, the family will not agree. And now the Ye family cannot take over my family. It is different for you, a side branch, personally
"
"Stop talking." Li Huaiji smiled, then pondered, and his eyes flashed: "Maybe you are right, I need to think about it carefully."
He Mao was overjoyed when he heard that Li Huaji had actually agreed.
He also had his own thoughts. Ever since Ye Qing got the second place, although his attitude was still the same, there was an invisible gap. This was not a matter of people's hearts, but a difference in status.
If he wants to strengthen his voice in front of Ye Qing, he must have achievements, and this Li Huaji is one of the achievements.
