The afterglow of the sunset reflected a layer of brilliant golden color on a whole green bamboo forest, and the heat during the day gradually faded away. The breeze blew across the treetops, and countless bamboo leaves swayed gently, making waves of rustling sounds, bringing a refreshing and coolness to those wandering in the bamboo forest. Therefore, Du Shiyi stood there at this moment, both in expression and mood, because he was accompanied by a real legend.

"What did Du Xiaolangjun laugh at?"

"I just feel happy in my heart." Du Shiyi raised the corners of her mouth as if nothing had happened, then stopped and said to Aunt Gongsun sincerely, "I have a small request. Although others call me Du Xiaolangjun, can you all save the small word in Gongsun?"

"Huh?" Seeing that Du Shiyi made such a request, Gongsun was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but smile. The rare smile appeared on her face as cold as ice, and it became more and more dazzling. But she seemed to know nothing. Seeing Du Shiyi staring at her intently, she said with a smile, "Du Lang faced Hao Nu today, first with half a wonderful poem to stir up public opinion, and then made suggestions to stay in Songyang Temple. This feeling and heart, I am grateful."

Du Shiyi asked Aunt Gongsun to save a small word, but she even removed the word Jun. This sound of Du Lang can make people feel infinitely strange expectations. However, when he remembered the cold sword force that was almost towards his nose before, his thoughts immediately disappeared without a trace, but he did not want to show weakness easily.

"I'm angry with the beauty, but if it's someone else, it would be like this."

"No, even if the Duke of Zhao mentioned by Du Langjun was present, he would only avoid the edge and would not confront the Censor Liu." Aunt Gongsun put away his jokes, turned slowly, and walked to an old bamboo next to the path, and then said without looking back, "Du Langjun is in Dengfeng, probably not knowing what the situation is outside. Since he received the order, the Censor Liu has walked very fast. Shanzhou, Xin'an, Gong County, the one and two counties that were leading Dengfeng were all tossed by him. It is said that the people were afraid of God's punishment and refused to catch locusts, so he issued a death order to all the county magistrates. The county office staff drove the people to the fields to catch locusts with whips, and the locusts were not allowed to go home."

She said suddenly, then turned around and said word by word: "Jingcheng, which I had planned to go to, was unwilling to catch locusts. The locust catcher urged him again and again. The county office had been resisting, and the locust catch was delayed. But because he came, the locust catcher was extremely tough for a while, and forced the county office to conquer the people to destroy locusts, and even the deadline was extremely tight. The county office was forced to give helplessness and even had to order a reward. For the reward of three to five cents for locusts, the rogues deliberately used this as a reason to break the green seedlings and blackmail the people to spend money to eliminate disasters. On the one hand, they had to catch locusts by the government, and on the other hand, they had to deal with these things. Even the travel on the road was harassed, so I returned to Dengfeng."

For Du Shiyi, what Mrs. Gongsun said was a great impact. The harm of the locust plague was obvious, but he could never have imagined that the locust catcher, which was obviously more beneficial than disadvantages, would have reached such a point. He thought that Liu Zhuo was just arrogant and bullying others with his power. If the facts were really as Mrs. Gongsun said, then the people could imagine how they complained.

"The people can use it, but not know it. It has been like this throughout the ages. I heard that when Du Langjun summoned people to eliminate locusts, he set up a large pot to cook locusts and ate them like delicious food. At the time, the people gathered in response. In addition, driving ducks and swallowing locusts, and the benefits of flying locusts are in hand, so the villagers gradually trusted them. If these locust catchers were so friendly to the people, instead of just high pressure, the natural locust plague was eliminated and the people were at peace. But they were obviously just eager to achieve success, and..." Gongsun Auntie paused, suddenly stepped forward and stopped just one or two steps away from Du Shiyi. "Du Langjun knew that the locust plagues in Shandong had not been reduced for the past year last year?"

"Is this true?"

Seeing Du Shiyi's face full of incredible expression, Gongsun said lightly: "I have been performing arts in various places in the north for more than a year. This is what I have seen and heard with my own eyes, and it is naturally true. If the reduction is reduced, it will naturally mean that the locust plague harms the people and catch locusts will be of no use. If the reduction is not reduced, it means that as long as the locust is caught, the disaster will be controlled and the rent can be paid on time. Therefore, whether it is reduced or not is a matter of life and death for the people, it is a matter of political achievements for the prime ministers in the court. Although Yao has been in office for several years and has done many good policies, this time it is a must-do to make locust plagues and counties vigorously catch locusts. Unfortunately, it is a mistake to use the wrong person and have too much selfishness!"

Faced with such a sharp judgment, Du Shiyi didn't know whether she should smile bitterly or show other expressions, but she felt in her heart that Gongsun's traveling around the world with his sword seemed to be just a sword dance. She talked about the sufferings of people's livelihood in the bamboo forest without talking about the wind and moon. At first glance, she shouldn't be Gongsun's dancer, he was a white-body man to care about the other. But at this moment, he couldn't help but look at the face that looked particularly dazzling under the golden sunlight.

"Cough...cough!"

A burst of inappropriate cough broke the silence between the two. Du Shiyi turned his head in surprise, but saw Du Shisanniang standing there with Zhuying at the other end of the path, with anger and joy on his face. When he saw him looking over, he wrinkled his nose hard. At this time, he was stunned for a moment, and never expected that Du Shisanniang and Zhuying's master and servant did not return to the thatched house, but were in Songyang Temple! So, he didn't care about Aunt Gongsun, and quickly turned around to meet Du Shisanniang. Seeing that the little girl was still silent when she saw him, he called Shisanniang with a smile. Unexpectedly, the next moment, he felt a figure plunging into his arms.

"Brother, if you have something to do in the future, you are not allowed to drive me away. I will never worry about you alone in a safe place!"

I felt a wet and hot feeling coming from my chest, as if Du Shisanniang was crying. Seeing that the bamboo shadow behind him also turned around, Du Shiyi seemed to be wiping tears. He quickly patted the little girl on the back and said with a smile: "Nothing is wrong, it's okay at all. You, you have always been worried at such a young age! Look, brother, am I fine, there is no piece of meat missing..."

Before he finished speaking, someone suddenly pushed him hard on his chest. He lowered his head and saw that Du Shisanniang had turned red and seemed angry. He knew that his joke had a counterproductive effect, so he could only sigh and said, "It's not that Brother wants to leave you, but sometimes I can't help but be impulsive. It's fine if I meddled in other people's business, I can't involve you anymore..."

"But at that time I also wanted to come forward and stand up for the upset. Brother, you obviously stopped me!"

"Hold on the wrong side? Shisanniang, he is either a member of the county office or a confidant of the censor Liu Zhuo. Why should you go up to stand up? What if there is a mistake?" Du Shiyi's face suddenly turned sharply. Seeing Du Shisanniang being dumbfounded, the blood on his face gradually faded, he whispered in a low voice, "Shisanniang, don't think that Cui Ming's mansion will respect us, we really have something to do. The family status, Liu Zhuo's people who hold the fairy in their mouths may not take it seriously. Instead, Cui Ming's mansion is thinking about the time and achievements I have bought for him for locusts, it is better to say that it is due to Cui Shiyilang!"

"Brother..."

"You went to Songyang Temple to ask for a visit. It seemed that you were looking for a support for me, but Master Sun was not the leader of Sima, and his intention was unpredictable. In addition, Master Song Guan had punished several people for your affairs before. What if those people hold grudges and take the opportunity to do something bad for you?"

"Okay, it's all my fault, I admit it!" Du Shisanniang's tears were already rolling in her eyes, and she couldn't help but say in a crying voice, "Brother said I shouldn't stand up for the wrongdoing, saying I shouldn't come to Songyang Temple, but you not only helped Gongsun everyone, but also brought people to Songyang Temple!"

Seeing Du Shisanniang sobbing and turning around and running, Zhuying was stunned at first, and then she couldn't help but feel anxious. She didn't care about chasing Du Shisanniang, and stepped forward and said without hesitation: "Mr., I am waiting for you to come back at home day and night. Today I am so happy to be able to enter the city with you! Even when I was living in Dengfeng County Bureau, Cui Mingfu and his wife even said that they would accept her as their goddaughter and give her more clothes and jewelry. The lady refused again and again, and only chose the most common ones, and never agreed, and she never felt complacent. She rushed to Songyang Temple for you at three moments. In front of Master Sun, she only said Gongsun and everyone came to Dengfeng, without mentioning anything else! She was just worried that Langjun, the brother, would not have time to think about anything else!"

After saying this, Zhuying just bent her knees slightly, and then immediately turned around and chased Du Shisanniang.

The master and servant disappeared in a moment, and Du Shiyi felt a mess in his heart. At this moment, he could only hear the voice of Mrs. Gongsun from behind: "Although Mrs. Du is young, he treats people sincerely. Even if he is careless, Du Langjun should not speak so harshly. What's more, it's for me, an outsider."

"This is not a question of whether outsiders or not." Du Shiyi sighed without looking back, and then said, "It's because I'm too impatient and forgot about Thirteen Niang's age. Only by talking to Gongsun, I have gained a lot. Now I have to go and talk to Thirteen Niang and say goodbye first."

"I'm angry for the beauty..."

When the figure in white had disappeared, she murmured as if Du Shiyi was spitting out casually, and remembered the half of the poem that had not yet been completed, and Aunt Gongsun felt that her heart was mixed. She had no traces in her heart that night. Although she seemed to be in a dream after seeing her appearance, she did not even notice that she set off with her disciple early in the morning. Although she had heard that Du Shijiu, Duling Duling, was eating locusts in public on the way to Yancheng, and advocated driving ducks and swallowing locusts. Then, the people in the four towns were all vigorously raising ducks and raising pigs. Some of the bold people also feed on locusts, there were countless passers-by during her journey. However, today his righteous rescue was inevitably deeply engraved in her heart, especially the scene of cheering in the moment.
