It's neither drinking nor listening to music. Of course, it's certainly not to see a girl. After all, Qin Yun at home is a famously shrewd woman in Yingshui County. Everything he has is brought by Qin Yun, and he is basically half a wife.
Son-in-law, how dare you offend the other party?
And his favorite thing is to stay in his study, alone, neither reading nor painting, just in a daze.
Of course, to outsiders at this time.
Zhou Ganyi prefers to call this behavior - waiting.
For ordinary people, if they want to change their destiny, hard work alone is not enough, what is more important is opportunity.
Do what you should do, and all that's left is to wait for those opportunities to come, then reach out your hand, grab that opportunity, and don't let go no matter what the cost.
…
The door of the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Qin Yun, wearing a red lady's outfit, walked into the study angrily. Looking at Zhou Ganyi who was in a daze in the room, she immediately yelled: "What are you doing?"
"You failed in your errand a few days ago and your cousin demoted you. Are you going to accept your fate?"
"Let you go and walk around. With my father's connections, the old and young in Yingshui County will have to sell you some thin noodles. If you go to your cousin and say something nice, it won't be difficult for you to be reinstated! Good for you,
You just stay in the study every day! What? Are you ready to be a lady?"
"Then do you want me to find a matchmaker for you?"
Qin Yun's sarcastic remarks were hard to hear, but Zhou Ganyi behaved extremely calmly.
He smiled slightly and said: "Madam, don't worry, the person who demoted me is the county governor. This matter can only be done by the county governor's nod. No one else can help."
"Then you go see your cousin. What's the point of staying at home?" Qin Yun continued to scold.
Zhou Ganyi calmly picked up the teapot from the desk, filled himself a cup of tea, and said with a smile: "The Sheriff is seriously ill and is recuperating at the moment. It's inconvenient for me to come and bother you."
"Cousin is sick?" Qin Yun's face changed when she heard this, and she muttered: "Why haven't I heard this news before?"
"Five days ago, the county guard led people to intercept and kill a group of people from Dafengyuan, and chased them halfway out of the city gate. Someone from the county guard's office went to report the news, saying that the beacon tower of Ma Tuo City was lit, and Youyun's army was approaching the bottom of the pond.
The county governor may have been worried about state affairs, and he has been seriously ill since then." After Zhou Ganyi said this, he picked up the cup filled with tea and took a sip.
Qin Yun frowned. Youyun's attack on Ma Tuo City is no longer a secret in Yingshui County. Although the people are quite critical of the governor's office's inaction to this day, Youyun's remarks
Nian looked down upon Wu Yangchao, and everyone thought it was just a small fight involving tens of thousands of troops at most, but they were not too worried. After all, no matter how they looked at it, Xiao Xiaoyouyun didn't seem to dare to really invade Yingying.
The appearance of Shuijun. However, Qin Yun had never heard anyone mention the fact that the governor was seriously ill...
After all, she was also Qin Yang's daughter and Qin Chenggu's cousin. How did Zhou Ganyi know about the news that he had not even heard?
Here, she looked at Zhou Ganyi with suspicion.
"How did you get this news? Why didn't I know it and no one informed me?" she asked.
Zhou Ganyi stood up and looked at Qin Yun.
His eyes swept up and down Qin Yun's body, as if he was measuring a piece of goods without any emotion.
Ever since they met, the man in front of her always held her up high no matter where she was. This was the first time she had seen such a look...
"The governor is seriously ill and will most likely not survive for a few more days. The prince, Qin Huaiyi, is still young and cannot take on such a big responsibility. There must be someone to take over this huge Yingshui County, right?"
"But who is the most suitable candidate?" Zhou Ganyi said, his eyes suddenly narrowed, with a half-smile in his narrow eyes, and he came close to Qin Yun.
Qin Yun trembled when she heard this. If what Zhou Ganyi said is true, then...
"Yes." Zhou Ganyi interrupted Qin Yun's suddenly restless thoughts and said: "That's the name Madam thought of..."
The trembling of Qin Yun's body became more and more obvious at that time, and Zhou Ganyi walked towards her. This man who was usually submissive to everyone, at this moment, inexplicably gave Qin Yun a huge sense of oppression. Facing her,
As the man walked towards her step by step, Qin Yun subconsciously began to retreat, as if she was afraid of something.
"The person who can succeed the governor and take charge of Yingshui County must first be named Qin. Among the Qin family, in terms of seniority and qualifications, the most suitable ones are my father-in-law Qin Yang and third master Qin Juxian."
"But we all know what Qin Juxian is like. He is just a freeloader. Let alone let him fight for it. Even if the position of county guard is given to him, he may not dare to take it. In this way, the position of county guard is not worth it.
Is it just my father-in-law?"
When Zhou Ganyi said these words, the expression on Qin Yun's face changed, and then she looked at him: "These...are these things your father told you?"
When asked this question, Qin Yun tried her best to appear calm enough, but both her trembling voice and the burning color in her eyes revealed her inner excitement at the moment.
This is not a strange thing.
There is a saying that one person can ascend to heaven with chickens and dogs. If Qin Yang really takes the position of the governor of Yingshui County, wouldn't Qin Yun become the daughter of the governor? Naturally, her status will rise with the tide, how can she not be excited?
?
But after hearing this question, Zhou Ganyi shook his head and said: "In the heart of my father-in-law, I am just a marquis who can help Yingshui County expand its troops. How can such an important military master tell me?
"
"Then how did you know?" Qin Yun was confused after hearing this.
"The Sheriff's Mansion refuses to see visitors on the grounds that the Sheriff is busy with official duties. This is obviously someone who can isolate the Sheriff from the outside world. At the same time, the war situation ahead is tense, but all the Purple Sword Guards have been transferred to Yingshui City instead of
Sitting back and watching the battle ahead is a sign of seizing power. Apart from the county guard, the only person in Yingshui County who can mobilize the Purple Sword Guards is my father-in-law. This..."
"Is it difficult to guess?" Zhou Ganyi asked with a smile.
.
Zhou Ganyi spoke so calmly, but Qin Yun increasingly felt that Zhou Ganyi today was full of weirdness. However, her doubts were diluted by the joy that her father was about to take charge of Yingshui County. She said: "Even if you know,
Don’t talk nonsense to anyone else! If you mess up my father’s important affairs, you will see how I will deal with you!”
Facing Qin Yun's rebuke, Zhou Ganyi was about to respond, but at this moment, a servant in the mansion suddenly came to the door of the study quickly, bowed his head to the two people in the room and said: "Qin Huaiyi, Master Qin, please see me!"
If it had been a quarter of an hour ago, Qin Yun, who had not heard Zhou Ganyi's words, would have been overjoyed at this moment, and led the servants in the house to warmly receive her nephew.
But at this moment, Qin Yun frowned and said to herself with a strange expression: "What is he here for?"
But Zhou Ganyi stepped forward at this moment and said: "He came to see me."
"Looking for you?" Qin Yun was stunned again. She had been with Zhou Gan Yi for so many years, but she never remembered that her husband had any personal relationship with her nephew.
At this moment, Zhou Ganyi slowly stretched out his hand and took off the white Confucian shirt on his body, revealing the armor he had already worn underneath.
Under Qin Yun's horrified gaze, he spoke slowly.
"If my father-in-law becomes the governor of Yingshui County, as far as I am concerned, it will just change from the son-in-law of Qin Yang to the son-in-law of the county governor. In his eyes, I will still be the good-for-nothing waste."
"But if I help Mr. Qin keep his position as the governor of Yingshui County, then I will be the number one hero of Yingshui County. This coming and going will be a hugely profitable business. What does the woman think? When the time comes,
You can also live with your husband, but your status is no worse than that of the governor's daughter."
As Zhou Ganyi said this, the servant in the mansion who delivered the message also stepped forward and handed Zhou Ganyi a helmet that matched the black armor. At the same time, several servants came out and brought a helmet that looked very heavy.
The black cloak was worn respectfully by Zhou Ganyi.
Qin Yun's eyes were wide open at that time, looking at the situation in front of her in disbelief - these servants had been slaves in her house for many years, and Qin Yun had never known that they seemed to have been driven by Zhou Ganyi...
At that moment, she suddenly felt that the man in front of her was extremely terrifying - after having been together for so many years, it seemed that what he showed now was his true appearance.
Zhou Ganyi took the helmet, put it on his head, looked at the pale Qin Yun with a smile, and said.
"By the way, madam, don't worry."
"I have already asked the Xuanyi troops to gather around the city gate. Although the Purple Sword Guards have been transferred to Yingshui City, most of them are stationed outside the city. When we go, the Purple Sword Guards outside the city have received the news and will wait for them to arrive.
In the Sheriff's Mansion, my father-in-law has long since fallen to the sword of the Xuanyi Army. By then, Young Master Qin will also have obtained the Sheriff's Seal, and the Purple Sword Guard will be gone and will not be able to make any waves."
"Madam, just stay at home with peace of mind and wait for the good news that your husband will be sealed as a wolf."
After saying this, Zhou Ganyi didn't even look at Qin Yun's pale face and shaky body. At that time, many servants who had also put on black armor strode out of the mansion...
