There were deep emotions suppressed in Qi Yan's eyes. He took a deep breath and whispered to the old man: "Thank you."
Because even he did not expect that in the hearts of the people, the Qi family would be a family they trusted unconditionally.
Mrs. Liu who was opposite also opened the door and walked out.
She pursed her lips and said nothing for a long time. She lowered her head slightly and said, "I didn't expect..."
Qi Yan shook her head and placed the seedlings and copper coins in her palm.
"Lai Che, are you ready?"
"Hey, here it comes!"
Lai Che's voice was filled with the vigor of a young man, and he was running over. Behind him, a handyman from the local magistrate's house was pushing a cart filled with food, and the fragrance was wafting out.
"Perhaps you are weak, so it would be too much trouble for you, so I brought you food by the way."
"After a good meal and a good night's rest, you will be able to return to the fields and earn a living for your whole family."
Qi Yan said calmly, without any condescension in his tone.
The people felt grateful in their hearts, and their eyes became astringent for a while.
After so long of hardships, are we finally going to see the light?
They wanted to bow and thank Qi Yan, but Qi Yan smiled and pushed Magistrate Gao out to block the gun again.
"Don't be excited, everyone. All expenses and gifts today will be paid by County Magistrate Gao. From now on, you and County Magistrate Gao will have an equal employment relationship. When the crops are harvested and the things given to you are repaid, the employment relationship will be
Resolved spontaneously."
"There will be a harvest then, and you don't have to worry about taxes."
The people felt a little at ease.
They were not incomprehensible people, and they thanked Magistrate Gao profusely on the spot.
A whole street of people had smiles on their faces and sincere thanks, which brought a strong sense of shock.
Magistrate Gao stood in front of the crowd, his arms swinging awkwardly, feeling unusually embarrassed.
At the same time, a strange sense of satisfaction quietly left a sprout in my heart.
Is this what it feels like to be a good official and be loved by the people?
However, as soon as he thinks about it, the scene before him... was the result of all his wealth.
Magistrate Gao immediately grimaced.
That is really the net worth he has accumulated for a long time!
Qi Yan raised his eyes and saw that the sky was getting dark. When he turned around, he saw Zhou Luoyu listening to someone talking.
The leader had a familiar face. Qi Yan chuckled, "Fang Taiyi."
It's finally here.
After bidding farewell to the common people, Qi Yan smiled and said hello to Imperial Physician Fang.
When Doctor Fang saw him, he frowned so hard that he almost couldn't breathe!
He was worried all the way and asked the coachman to rush here as fast as possible, just because he was afraid that something might happen to Zhou Luoyu.
Who knew when they arrived, they hurried to the inn and were told that Zhou Luoyu had gone out? When they anxiously ran to the slum area again, they saw Zhou Luoyu himself.
When he got closer, he saw the familiar method of tying bandages on his body. Doctor Fang didn't even have to think about it, a person automatically popped into his mind.
Ling Yutong.
In an instant, the anger surged up.
Bai Xiang was frightened all the way, and he hurried slowly because he was afraid that Zhou Luoyu would not be cured well and would be blamed by the Holy One.
Qi Yan raised his eyebrows, with a smile in his eyes.
Doctor Fang: "..."
So angry!
Qi Yan walked over and gently patted the shoulder of the imperial doctor below, and asked in a low voice: "Did Yutong forget to explain to you?"
"Actually, she came here in a hurry. She set off at dawn. She didn't even have time to rest when she got here. She said there were patients waiting for her in the afternoon, so she left in a hurry."
"Maybe she was too tired and forgot to tell you."
Doctor Fang hesitated.
The raging resentment was like a leather bag suddenly punctured and exposed to the wind, but soon there was no trace.
Doctor Fang thought to himself, after hearing this, that girl Ling Yutong is no more leisurely than himself.
Forget it, don't blame her.
Not having to serve Zhou Luoyu's ancestor would save him some effort.
Doctor Fang's expression gradually turned cloudy, Qi Yan saw it, and a smile flashed across his eyes.
When Zhou Luoyu saw that the excitement was gone, his mood sank, and the pain in his body became severe.
He gritted his teeth: "This prince wants to return to the palace! This prince's injury cannot be ignored. This prince wants to..."
When Qi Yan heard this, he raised his eyebrows: "What a coincidence, I want to go back to the palace too."
He turned to look at Magistrate Gao.
"And Magistrate Gao, let's come together."
Magistrate Gao’s pupils were shaking: “???”
"No, Mr. Qi, what are you going to do when you return to Beijing?"
Qi Yan narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Oh? What to do?"
"The second noble prince of this dynasty was forced into the inn by an assassin late at night in the area you are responsible for. He was wounded all over and dripping with blood. Don't you have the obligation to explain to the Holy One?"
"It's been one day since the assassination. The assassin has no information and doesn't know which force he belongs to. How dare you say that you are not responsible?"
Magistrate Gao was left speechless by the question and could not utter a word.
In the end, I was unable to lower my head and my voice was very low.
"But the lower official is the county magistrate of this area after all. He has to go back and forth to Beijing. Considering the second prince's injury, there will be a long delay on the way. This..."
"That's right, don't worry."
Qi Yan looked straight at the person who had been following Magistrate Gao. It was Magistrate Gao's deputy who had always been with him.
This handsome young man was quiet and quiet, but when he faced the people just now, the look in his eyes was truly happy for them.
If one affects the emotions according to the state of the people, even if one's skills are weak, one's heart is sincere.
"I think your deputy is quite good. If there is no major issue in the local area, he can manage it by himself."
Magistrate Gao's breathing quickened for a moment and he looked at Qi Yan in disbelief.
Qi Yan raised his eyes and smiled softly.
"Isn't this your deputy? He must understand all the procedures. Moreover, he is just a temporary deputy. Doesn't County Magistrate Gao not have this kind of understanding?"
The deputy boy panicked and looked a little confused.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Qi Yan shaking his head slightly at him.
The young man paused.
The atmosphere was quiet, and Zhou Luoyu said impatiently: "Decide quickly and walk to Beijing tonight! This prince can't wait any longer."
Qi Yan looked at him with a smile.
Double pressure is like a big stone, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Magistrate Gao pursed his lips tightly, and words came out of his mouth one by one.
"Yes, it's just temporary. I think it's okay."
Qi Yan smiled: "That's no problem. Come to Che and pack your things. As the second prince said, we will set off for Beijing now before the curfew."
"yes!"
Doctor Fang took out a bottle of pills from the medicine bag he carried with him and handed them to the second prince.
"The carriage is bumpy along the way. Even if you pay attention, you can't avoid all the unstable road sections. This bottle is a medicine to replenish qi and blood..."
Zhou Luoyu took it and put it down casually. The wound hurt and he grimaced.
"Is there any painkiller? Give me some."
Doctor Fang paused for a moment, with a faint expression of pain in his eyes.
Yes, there were, but those pills were given to him by Ling Yutong, just a few pills for him to study and use.
"No."
Without thinking much, he just lowered his head and said.
Zhou Luoyu curled his lips in displeasure and felt low pressure all over his body. Ling Yutong refused to let him take pain relief, but Imperial Physician Fang did not.
If it hurts him to death, he will never let them go!
