When Du Zhenglun left, his head was still dizzy.

The effect of alcohol is one, and more importantly, it is to give up Xu Qilin's official position so happily. Is it because he is still young, afraid of being tired, and is so willing to share the burden, or decentralize power?

Of course, this also confirms his speculation. Xu Qilin does play a crucial role in his appointment.

Without the permission of the court, one governor appointed another governor, although it was temporarily signed, there was no such reason.

Therefore, Du Zhenglun believed that Xu Qilin should have His Majesty’s decree in his hand. Whether he could take it out depends on whether he could satisfy Xu Qilin.

Since he has obtained the title of temporary governor, Xu Qilin will probably submit a report to the court and issue a formal appointment.

Du Zhenglun also remembered what Xu Qilin said clearly. Not to mention Xiao Gui and Cao Sui, Xu Qilin did not want any major changes in Suzhou's current business strategy.

Du Zhenglun is not stupid either. Suzhou's political achievements this year have been confirmed, which is Xu Qilin's contribution. If it cannot be surpassed next year, how can he, the governor, explain to the court?

Based on the current impression of His Majesty Li Er of himself, he probably has to deal with it. Alas, who has added suspicion and estrangement between His Majesty and the Crown Prince!

The Du family had three scholars. When His Majesty was still the King of Qin, he was recruited and entered the Literature Museum of the King of Qin. Later, he served as the Minister of War, the Minister of the Central Secretariat, the Left Prince, and the Marquis of Nanyang County.

But once you make a mistake, you are not as good as a young man. He is the saint-family clan, and his future is promising!

After sighing heavily, Du Zhenglun turned around and looked at the inn, shook his head with a wry smile, turned around and left slowly.

…………………

Xu Qilin didn't think so much and had a good rest for a night. The next day, he invited Du Zhenglun to head to Jiuquan, which is the Suzhou District.

Although it was authorized by His Majesty Li Er, the decree was not formal, so Xu Qilin was not easy to take it out. He took Du Zhenglun with him and went to Jiuquan to recruit officials to explain it. The power of Suzhou was handed over to Du Zhenglun.

The autumn harvest is coming soon, this is a big deal. Du Zhenglun is busy, but Xu Qilin has unloaded a burden.

Without stopping in Jiuquan for a long time, Xu Qilin rushed back to Ganzhou. Three days later, he had already seen the city walls of Zhangye.

"It's back!" Fang Er sighed first, not knowing what he was crazy about.

Xu Qilin looked at the thick bloke with some amusement and thought to himself: If you add a few words, such as "I, Hu Hansan, are back again", that would be awesome!

"Alang, I'll go to the mansion to report first." Fang Er was so excited that he was not only excited, but the servants who followed Xu Qilin out for several months all showed excitement.

"Go!" Xu Qilin nodded and waved his hand with a smile.

With permission, two servants rushed out at once and rode their horses towards the city.

Fang Er smiled and said, "Look at these two guys who are anxious. To be honest, I miss the two little girls in your house. I have to fight with them for a few days this time, and I have to win back all the previous losses, so that I can make progress."

Xu Qilin smiled and curled his lips, thinking: I don’t know why I lost, and I still want to win back? A Jiani, that ghost girl, I don’t know what to think of, I’ll lose all of you.

The group entered the city gate and walked along the street towards the mansion. After a few months, the number of pedestrians increased a lot. There were also houses in the city that were built and renovated, which seemed to be rich, or there were big merchants and big families coming to manage them.

Well, selling land can make a lot of money. When Xu Qilin saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel arrogant. When he was blocked into Jiangnan, I made it happen in two years.

Still a distance from the mansion gate, Xu Qilin saw a big lantern lit up, and two familiar figures on the steps were looking at this side.

"Here, here we come! That's Alang." When I got closer, I heard the shouts of the two girls. When I saw them jumping over, I looked overjoyed and cheering.

Xu Qilin laughed, turned over and got off the horse, and when he met him, he was hugged by a bear.

"Alang, you're back." Scarlett hugged Xu Qilin tightly, pressed his face against Alang's chest and rubbed it again and again, "I miss you."

A Jiani could only walk around behind her back, hugged Xu Qilin, and pushed her head several times, "I miss you too, I think everything, everything..."

"I can't even remember it!" Xu Qilin was amused and patted Scarlett on the back. When she let go, she reached out to hug Ajiani, walked into the mansion with a smile.

Fang Er also jumped off the horse and shouted with a smile: "Hey, I'll just keep one for the other, and I won't leave one for a certain family."

Xu Qilin rolled his eyes, but didn't even look back, but said to Ajiani with his side face: "Play mahjong with you again and win him all for me."

Ajiani's eyes lit up and she laughed like a cunning little fox.

When he entered the mansion, he saw A Ke waiting by the roadside. When he heard Xu Qilin's voice, he bowed and bowed, "I have seen Xu Lang."

Xu Qilin let go of the two girls, stepped forward, and said with a smile: "I'm fine, I'm fine."

Scarlett went over and held A Ke's arm and said, "If A Ke hadn't accompanied him, I would have been suffocated to death."

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "I want to thank Miss A Ke."

"You are polite to Xu Lang." A Ke said with a smile: "I have to thank you only if I live in the Xu Mansion, I have to take care of food and accommodation!"

"Thank you for the trouble." Fang Er strode from behind, loudly not knowing to press his voice, "Prepare hot water, prepare wine and rice. After taking a bath, he will drink hard. After being outside for a long time, he will think about food here most."

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Let's go, let's talk in there."

…………………

It was half deep in the night, and the yard was still brightly lit. The smell of wine and vegetables wafted in the air, and Fang Er's loud voice rang from time to time.

"Brother Jun really killed someone?" A Jiani didn't believe it and turned her gaze to Xu Qilin.

Xu Qilin nodded and said, "He was not boasting. He covered his head and rushed upwards, and he didn't stop him."

After pausing, he continued: "Luda ​​also obtained military merits and stayed under Wang Fangyi to obey the orders."

"Luda, not bad." Fang Er's tongue was a little big, and he said with his eyes wide open: "He was following someone and also chopped down two Gaochang soldiers."

Scarlett showed a strange expression and said, "It's so boring to fight and kill."

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Brother Jun, let's talk less about killing people in front of the girls."

Oh, oh, Fang Er blinked his eyes a little slow and muttered, "Yes, you are girls, you will be scared after hearing this."

As he said that, he shook his head and stood up, saying, "I'll go and make some more convenient."

As soon as Fang Er left, Xu Qilin smiled and said to the girls: "It's boring to eat and drink only, but no music. When someone sings a song, he will be entertained."

"Okay, OK!"

Scarlett and Ajiani shouted happily, while A Ke was looking forward to letting the maid take the pipa and move the chair to the yard. He was preparing to accompany Xu Qilin, and he also thought that he could learn a new song again.

Xu Qilin stretched out his muscles and bones as if he was going to practice it. Then he walked to A Ke with a smile and said, "This song is relatively soothing. According to your intelligence and skills, you can almost play it if you listen to someone sing it."

A Ke smiled, looked at the direction where he spoke with his big eyes and said, "I am very stupid. If I can't learn it, I have to sing it a few more times."

Xu Qilin laughed, cleared his throat, and started singing.

"The plain embryo outlines blue and white, with the pen tip turning into thinner; the peony depicted on the bottle is like your first makeup; the sandalwood is slowly passing through the window, and I know my thoughts; the pen on the rice paper is halfway there..."

The tenderness floats in the courtyard with a bit of melodious and subtle singing, as if a misty and rain-dream ink landscape painting was presented to everyone's eyes, and it was like a flowing mountain spring stream, winding and gurgling.

"The sky is blue and mist and rain, and I am waiting for you; the smoke from cooking is rising, thousands of miles across the river..."

A Ke's eyes were blurred, his lips were silently opened, and he was singing silently.

"Who?" Through the courtyard wall, Fang Er's howl broke the melodious singing and the silent listening of the crowd in the venue.

Xu Qilin was shocked and quickly turned around to see. A Ke was also frightened, blinked his big eyes and stood up suddenly.

Bang! At the sound of the bowstring, a black crossbow arrow flew rapidly from the courtyard wall and shot on A Ke's left shoulder. If she hadn't suddenly stood up, the arrow would have pierced into Xu Qilin's chest.

"Assassin--" Fang Er also heard the sound of the bowstring and immediately shouted, "Catch the assassin, catch the assassin."

Xu Qilin also saw a black shadow on the courtyard wall jumping and running away. He looked very thin but very agile.

He also wanted to chase after him, but A Ke cried in pain and fell softly in front of him. He hurriedly stepped forward and hugged him, calling out loudly to the servants to help.

The house yard was in chaos, and the servants shouted and held a torch and lanterns to chase and surround him.

Fang Er was the first to discover, and followed the closestly, and yelled to provide scope and direction for the nurses' hospital guards.

Xu Qilin could not control the assassin, and at this time he had already carried A Ke into the house with his servants. According to his vision, the part shot by the crossbow arrow was not fatal, and it should be that it was not life-threatening.

But A Ke's reaction surprised him. He didn't scream or sound, as if he was fainting. Moreover, black air appeared on his face.

Some first aid items at home are still prepared, and Xu Qilin is half a Mongolian doctor. Cut A Ke's clothes and reveals the wounds. Xu Qilin couldn't help but gasp.

The wound was black and purple, and it was obviously a poisonous arrow. This situation immediately left Xu Qilin helpless.

"A Ke is almost out of breath." Although A Jiani's words were not pleasant, she was crying, but she was anxious and didn't know what to say.

Xu Qilin gritted his teeth and pulled out the crossbow arrow. Because it was poisoned, the assassin thought that he would die if he was hit, and he would use barbs without any trouble.

After squeezing the wound hard, Xu Qilin wanted to squeeze out the toxin. But seeing that the effect was not good, he stretched out his mouth and sucked it hard.

Puff! A mouthful of blood was spit on the ground. Xu Qilin took the disinfected high-alcohol wine in the first aid kit, rinsed his mouth, and continued to take drugs.

"It's useless!" Niao Niao's voice sounded in her ears, causing Xu Qilin to stop immediately.

"If you really want to save her, let everyone else go out. I'll teach you a way."

"No, Xiaoye."

Xu Qilin blinked slowly, looked at A Ke who was almost breathless, suddenly stood up and shouted: "You guys go out first, I want to treat A Ke's injuries."

"Alang, I will help you."

"Alang, I'll stay."

Xu Qilinqiang smiled and reached out to push it gently, "Everyone is out, be obedient, I will cure A Ke."

He drove the servant and the two girls who turned around and turned out of the room. Xu Qilin closed the door and bolted it, turned around and walked back.

The candlelight shook gently twice, and Xiaoye and Daya appeared. Daya still stared at her eyes and scolded Xiaoye: "You have thought about it, and after waiting for so long, you will be reborn as a blind girl? Or is it a singing person?"

"But I like to listen to A Ke playing the piano and singing!" Xiaoye blinked his big eyes and said to A Sister with a smile: "Besides, if I attach it to her, she can see it. She can't see anything, it's all black, it's very pitiful!"
