Chapter 190: Do you know how to measure yourself?

Of course, does this make her feel guilty? How can it be? With her strength, it is not difficult to hold an ordinary person back, but if he doesn't want to stay, can she hold him back?

Mingyi snorted softly and said expressionlessly, "Now that I'm awake, the Governor doesn't need to be here anymore. Come back!"

"Madam, you are really cruel. I took care of you all night last night, and I was still injured." Xue Lin replied expressionlessly.

"That's why I want the Governor to go back to your room and have a good rest!" Mingyi said with a tight forehead.

"Madam, you demolished the bridge too quickly when crossing the river." Xue Lin sighed softly.

Mingyi didn't hold back, she stretched out her foot and kicked him lightly, "Hurry up, I'm covered in sweat and feel so uncomfortable."

Xue Lin knew that she was a little uncomfortable. He was just teasing her on purpose. Now he stood up and stood by the bed, watching condescendingly. When he woke up, he wrapped himself tightly into a cocoon with the quilt, only revealing a piece of silkworm cocoon. Mingyi, who had a rosy face, was still a little worried, "Do you really think there is nothing uncomfortable? Does your head still hurt?"

"Really! You should get out quickly!" Mingyi glared at him with slightly rounded eyes. She looked very cute with her messy hair.

Xue Lin chuckled twice, and before she became more annoyed, he said "Okay, okay, I'll go out right now", but the smile on his lips was filled with helpless doting.

However, as soon as he walked to the door, Feng Yu hurried in with his head lowered. He thought he heard the noise and then dared to come in. When he got to Xue Lin, he knelt down and blessed Fu Dao, "Captain, Songfeng just came to report. , Dongying sent news, saying that the border patrol will arrive at the east city gate in about an hour."

It came quickly! Xue Lin looked back at Mingyi, who looked at him slightly startled, then stood up and said, "I'll go with you!"

The border patrol team was not as powerful as Mingyi thought. Except for Chu Yanze, who was dressed in a red official uniform, there were only about twenty guards accompanying them. It only took twenty days. Sure enough, he never went anywhere else, but went straight to Beiguan.

At the other end, Chu Yanze had already dismounted from the horse, and Xue Lin came forward with fists clasped. He took two steps quickly, held up a hand, and bowed to Xue Lin, "Master Xue, this is polite." He turned around to look again. Xiang Mingyi bowed his head and said, "Princess, you are fine!"

He was polite and had the appearance of a gentleman, but Mingyi clearly caught his eye at a glance. When she glanced at him, her eyes were deep and she remained calm. She knelt down and bowed, "I've seen the border patrol before." Sir!"

"My lord, you have been tired from traveling all the way, and the rooms have been packed out in the post house. You might as well go to the post house to rest for a while, and then pick up the wind for you at night!" Xue Lin led Chu Yanze into the city. Since Chu Yanze acted like a gentleman, he naturally acted like a gentleman. Not knowing how to refuse, he and Xue Lin entered the city gate while being polite.

Along the way, he seemed to be very interested in the folk customs in Beiguan City. He would ask a few questions from time to time. Even Mingyi already knew some of the interesting things, and now she listened to them with gusto.

After sending the people to the post house, Xue Lin asked Mingyi to go back to the house first, saying that the border patrol envoy was going to inspect the military camp in the afternoon and he wanted to accompany her. The reception banquet at the post house made her worry more. The Jie Feng Banquet had been arranged early in the morning, so Mingyi didn't need to worry too much. She raised her eyes and met his gaze and knew what he meant. He was asking her to go back and rest.

She was actually fine, but it was fine if she could be lazy for a while. Besides, with Xue Lin watching, nothing would happen. So she said goodbye to Chu Yanze with peace of mind, then turned and walked away. After taking a few steps, she could still feel the probing eyes on her back.

"Captain Xue, you are in charge of the huge Anxi and are very busy on weekdays. I heard that you were assassinated a few days ago and were injured?" When Xue Lin's eyes swept over him like a knife, Chu Yanze had already looked away. , asked with a smile.

"Master Chu is quite well-informed!" Xue Lin said in a deep voice, with a calm look that showed no emotion or anger.

"Since we are coming to Anxi to patrol the border, we should pay more attention to Anxi's movements. I wonder how the Governor Xue is injured?" Chu Yanze looked at Xue Lin with concern.

"Thank you for your concern, Master Chu. This injury is not serious. It won't cost your life, but it's not serious either. If Master Chu wants me to go on stage to practice for you in person, it won't be possible." It's indifference.

"The words of Governor Xue are serious. Is Yue Qin one of those ignorant people?"

Yeah? If you knew what was right, would your eyes have been fixed on my wife just now? Xue Lin's face was expressionless, but he was snoring in his heart.

Chu Yanze seemed unaware, but still smiled and said, "What I mean is that Governor Xue is busy and injured. I am in Beiguan these days, so I can't help but walk around for fear of causing trouble to you! I heard that the governor and his wife had a deep love for each other, and they were inseparable even when they went on patrol before. My wife must be very familiar with the situation in Beiguan, and I heard that the people in Anxi are open and less restrictive towards women. My wife and I It’s an old acquaintance, so why don’t you ask Madam to accompany me on a tour of Beiguan City?”

These words sounded soft, polite, and nothing out of the ordinary, but the underlying provocation was known to everyone who spoke and listened.

For a moment, Chu Yanze clearly felt the coldness of Xue Lin's body that kept strangers away, but before he could lift the corner of his mouth, the cold murderous intention suddenly disappeared and no trace could be found. When he raised his eyes in surprise, Xue Lin slightly raised his lips and said with a faint smile, "It's not impossible, but I still have to ask Madam what she means first. If Madam agrees, I have no objection!"

Chu Yanze took a deep look at Xue Lin, but this man was very good at cultivating qi, so he didn't let him show any emotion at all. He could only smile and said, "Then I'll thank Governor Xue first!"

"Master Chu is the border patrol envoy. Since we represent His Majesty's face, we, the ministers, should do our best to ensure that you can successfully complete your border patrol duties!"

Chu Yanze stared at Xue Lin for a moment, but he really couldn't figure it out. In the end, he could only smile lightly.

After going around the military camp, he didn't see any problems for a while. However, Xue Lin took out the account book and asked him to take a good look at the military salary owed by the Ministry of Revenue to the Anxi Army. One after another, it was clear and clear. Many generals sincerely requested the border patrol officer to report the situation of the Anxi Army to Heaven and help them relieve their difficulties.

Those Lu Hanzi who led the troops in the war were particularly good at talking today, and they even made Mr. Chu, who claimed to be quite eloquent, speechless. In the end, he was left speechless. And the tendency to escape.

After coming out of the military camp, Chu Yanze let out a long breath, but Xue Lin still looked cold and solemn, clasping his fists towards him and saying, "They are all soldiers, straightforward and can't speak. If they say something wrong, Mr. Chu, please don’t take it to heart. However, what they said is not rude. As the saying goes, there is no reason to let a horse run but not let it eat grass. I have been convincing the army to let them I understand the difficulties faced by the court, but these men have to protect their families and the country, and they also have to support their families. I hope the court can be more considerate of our difficulties. We don’t dare to ask for more, so we just need to make up for what we deserve as soon as possible! "
