Ruan Zhen thought that Tan Yun was not feeling well, so she did not let her follow.

The carriage was very spacious, and Changfeng pushed Gu Huaizhi inside through the wooden boards.

Ruan Zhen held the hem of the stacked skirts, got on the footstool, leaned down slightly, lifted the car curtain and walked in slowly.

Ruan Zhen subconsciously chose the corner farthest from him and sat down.

Gu Huaizhi had a panoramic view of her every move.

He looked away, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.

ridiculous.

He, Gu Huaizhi, still didn't mind Ruan Zhen being in the way, and even saw that she was pitiful and made an exception to allow her to go with him.

But she is fine...

After Ruan Zhen sat down, Yi Lin came in holding two huge gold ingots. Seeing this behind the scenes, his hands shaking when playing with the gold ingots.

Yi Lin was heartbroken.

These two people are a family after all. What kind of trouble is this in the Chu-He-Han world?

After all, he didn't dare to scold Gu Huaizhi, so he could only turn around and say.

"Sister Ruan, please move over. I think it would be nice to see Huaizhi on his side."

Ruan Zhen naturally doesn't want to.

The carriage has a lot of space, what's wrong with sitting here?

"The gold ingot in my hand is always placed where my sister sits."

Ruan Zhen:???

She looked at Yi Lin holding it in her hand, clearly not leaving her body for a moment.

It's just rhetoric.

Yi Lin, who is a partial student, has the intention of stalemate with each other.

"Sister Ruan, hurry up, we are waiting to set off."

He said "sister" to the left, "sister" to the other, and called her "sister" very smoothly.

Having said this, Ruan Zhen had no choice but to stand up. She held her breath and turned her gaze around Gu Huaizhi.

But when she finally met Gu Huaizhi's dark eyes, she immediately paused, not having the courage to sit next to him.

Not to mention that Gu Huaizhi would not be happy with this weird temperament, Ruan Zhen herself was not willing either.

She could only bite the bullet and sit down opposite Gu Huaizhi.

There was a square table between the two of them.

But like this, as soon as Ruan Zhen raised her head, she could bump into Gu Huaizhi's face that was calm and emotionless.

Eyes as deep as cold pools, an unusually weird temper, and an arrogant identity made Ruan Zhen dare not relax even a little bit.

Ruan Zhen suddenly regretted it.

It's better to be by his side.

Gu Huaizhi glanced at her and said in a cold tone, but he said to Yi Lin: "Those who didn't know it thought she was your biological sister. In the past, you were just stingy, but now you are so frivolous when we are engaged. You are not afraid either.

Is the marriage in trouble?"

frivolous?

Yi Lin was very angry at these two words.

It was a waste of time for him to lose face and tell lies, even if he couldn't get the slightest benefit from this guy, forget it, but...

"Gu Huaizhi, if you can't get a wife yourself, then curse me."

Gu Huaizhi half-closed his eyes. There was no more light in the carriage than outside. There was an oil lamp burning, and his impatient face looked particularly soft at this moment.

"Um."

"What, you admitted it?" Yi Lin whined.

Under his death gaze, Gu Huaizhi just nodded slightly. His tone was neither urgent nor slow.

"It seems that the money you gave to the court is still too little."

Yi Lin's whole body trembled. His aura instantly weakened by more than half.

"what for?"

Gu Huaizhi's eyes were as dark as ink.

Bandits were rife in the Dongyang area. Emperor Hui originally planned to send Gu Huaizhi there, but because of the stabbing incident, he had no choice but to appoint someone else.

Which court officials are vegetarians?

There are very few people who do practical work.

Lin'an is prosperous, but in the remote area of ​​Dongyang, the people are in panic all day long, and it is difficult to have a full meal.

The wine and meat in Zhumen stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road. It is true.

Emperor Hui was the supreme emperor, but he could not gallop around and whip the world.

He has no big ideas, but he is looking for a way to live forever. He is always on the lookout for little thieves who may seize the country.

He was on guard against Prince Jing and used cruel means to achieve his goals.

He relied on the Chi family but was afraid that the Chi family was too powerful and uncontrollable, so he pretended to support the Duke of Dingguo and gave him supreme honor.

Everyone knows that when the Mu family's army is there, the country will be stable.

However, Emperor Hui was greedy and resented the fact that the Mu family won the hearts of the people more than he did nothing. He tried to get back the military power, but he couldn't let go of Mu Youde's chess piece...

How can such a person be worthy of being the king of a country?

Nowadays, the national treasury is empty and the taxes of the people are getting higher and higher every year.

However, he was extravagant and squandered wantonly. Everything he ate, drank and used was of the highest quality.

In the Dongyang area, even if the bandits were surrendered, the people would not have a fixed place to live, so they must report to the imperial court and open warehouses for relief.

"As far as I know, those bandits existed the year before last."

It's just that it's not very popular, and I don't usually go overboard to grab some money bags.

Who would have thought that today's huge team would dare to set fire, loot, and hurt people's lives.

If it weren't for the inaction of the Dongyang government, these bandits would have been controlled long ago, instead of continuing to expand step by step to the point where they are now uncontrollable.

"The rice in the Dongyang granary is only enough for three days."

The imperial court has long been overwhelmed. How can the treasury be filled with emptiness?

Yi Lin:!!!

He was so angry that he knocked the gold ingot from his hand.

The round and golden gold ingot rolled in front of Ruan Zhen's feet. Ruan Zhen didn't know whether to pick it up or not. When he looked up, he saw Yi Lin lying limply in the corner.

Covering his chest with one hand.

His face was full of struggle and pain.

"I'll give you any money, how can he, an emperor, be so shameless!"

Yi Lin's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

There were no outsiders in the carriage, so he didn't hide or tuck him in, but spoke directly from his heart.

"First food and grass, then disaster relief food." Gu Huaizhi's tone was full of pity, but what he said could make a person angry to death.

"It's a pity that you haven't decided on your marriage yet. It's going to cost a lot of blood."

Yi Lin covered his chest with both hands and could no longer speak.

After his funny move, Ruan Zhen quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, for fear of laughing unkindly.

The watery eyes are curved and bright.

Gu Huaizhi didn't know what was going on, and was stunned for a while. He sat opposite each other and met Ruan Zhen's eyes with a faint smile again.

The girl visibly hesitated. Then the corners of her mouth straightened, and the smile in her eyes disappeared. Then she lowered her head.

Ah!

Gu Huaizhi frowned. It was really hard to accept that Ruan Zhen, who he looked down upon, would be rejected.

Ruan Zhen was riding in a carriage with her ambitious cousin Fan Kunneng, but now she didn't even bother to look at him.

Is it possible that Gu Huaizhi is worse than Fan Kun?

Appearance?

Talent?
