Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 1130 1130: Xia Houyu, Gu De, good [asking for monthly votes]

"For me, making money is as easy as breathing." Shen Tang used the deposit collected to buy a few patches of wound medicine, "There are no Xinglin doctors here, so you can just make do with these medicines and take advantage of the situation as soon as possible. Only when you take care of yourself can you work."

 The young man reminded Shen Tang: "Zikuan hasn't accepted it yet."

Shen Tang opened his hands to him: "Oh, give me back the medicine."

 The young man gritted his teeth in anger: "You—"

He just couldn't do it to Shen Tang, and Zi Kuan also needed her to take care of him. He could only swallow what he wanted to say. Shen Tang sneered: "I can't cure Yuan Liang, and I can't cure you!"

 Youth: “…”

Shen Tang threw him another utensil for decoction: "Go!"

The young man carried his things and went to fetch water from the abandoned well outside the house.

But I still have doubts in my heart: "What kind of wealthy family is asking for these things and is willing to pay so much as a deposit?"

Shen Tang said: "How do I know? Some people are born in Rome, and some people are born with cattle and horses. To us, it may be delicacies, but to others it is just leftovers for feeding pigs. I guess the family has a big business, look. Not so much."

The young man stared at the flames in the stove.

Remind Shen Tang: "The situation here is no better than that in the North."

Shen Tang tore the big cake into his mouth and asked with his eyes what was different. The young man looked serious: "If the secret recipe you offer does not satisfy the other party, you may not come back alive with your life."

"That's it?"

 She thought it was something.

She is not a wooden stake. If someone threatens her, why can’t she run away? There was a look of disdain in Shen Tang's eyes: "If the other party really has the courage to take human lives, wouldn't I make a fortune?"

 There are legitimate reasons for killing people and taking wealth.

Seeing that Shen Tang didn't care about this, the young man stopped talking.

He burned the stove, put a clean cloth on Zi Kuan, and then took the replaced cloth to starch. Oh, these strips of cloth were torn from his own clothes. Without taking a break after busying himself, Shen Tang would quietly hold his chin up and look at his hardworking back.

 Zikuan talked to her.

 “Who do you see through your appearance, the queen?”

Shen Tang said frankly: "Look at Yuan Liang."

 Speaking, there was a loving and doting aunt smile on the corner of her mouth.

"When I see you two, I think of Yuan Liang and Wu Hui. However, these two cats and dogs are incompatible and rarely coexist peacefully. If one is unlucky and the other does not add insult to injury, it is considered friendly." The two have very different external stances. They agree with each other, their political ideas are similar, and they can be said to be in sync with each other, but their personal relationship is not good, "...I don't know if I can ever see Yuan Liang so busy taking care of Wu Hui in my whole life. The picture is so beautiful..."

 Zikuan: “…”

Who is a good person who would give a dog or cat a word like Yuan Liang Wu Hui?

 Shen Tang didn't know that he had this misunderstanding.

“What’s your surname and your name?” Self-introduction is the beginning of a closer relationship. Both of them are migrant workers who are about to join the company. She can’t not even know the names of future employees.

Zikuan said: "My surname is Xiahou and my first name is Yu."

"Zikuan, Marquis of Xia? If you are respectful, you will not be insulted; if you are tolerant, you will win people; if you are trustworthy, you will be accepted by others; if you are agile, you will be successful; if you are kind, you will be able to make people succeed; if a gentleman can do these five things, he will be benevolent in the world... It seems that Zikuan is still a high-ranking man" "Being from a wealthy family." If you don't have a certain background, or even someone who is closely related to the royal family, how can you be qualified to take a name like "Yu Shi Yi Kuan" without fear of being beaten with a sack when you go out.

Sun Guo’s national surname is not Xiahou.

Xia Houyu's pale smile added a bit of self-mockery, and said: "What's the use of a so-called wealthy family in a small place? In front of a truly distinguished family, I'm afraid they won't have any more dignity than the common people..."

 Shen Tang knew as soon as he heard that he was also a person with stories.

 Change the subject: “Where is he?”

Xia Houyu knew who she was referring to: "Yourong's surname is Gu."

"Gu?" A joke unexpectedly popped up in his mind, and Shen Tang joked, "Speaking of the word 'Rong', I suddenly thought of the saying 'There must be tolerance, and it will help; tolerance, virtue will be great'." Is your best friend named Gu Ren, Gu Ji or Gu De?"

If Gu Yourong's name comes from this sentence, then there is a high probability that his given name is "Gu De". Shen Tang knows that there will be a deduction for playing with homophones, but it is really interesting. What's even better is that his surname is "Gu" ! To a certain extent, he is his chosen worker! Shen Tang was just teasing, but he guessed it right.

 “Rongzhen is called ‘virtue’.”

  Shen Tang: “…”

How did this make her look directly at the name Gu De?

Xia Houyu saw the subtlety in her expression and asked, "Nvjun, is there anything inappropriate about the name Yourong?"

 In the blink of an eye, Shen Tang finished the lie.

"The name Gu De means 'good' in a dialect north of Beidi. Good, good, very good." Shen Tang covered the corners of his mouth with his hand, coughed twice and cleared his throat, "I just suddenly thought of , no offense.”

Xiahou Yu was not angry either.

He could tell that the mysterious and inhuman woman in front of him was not very old. Maybe she was eight or nine years old? Not to mention that she was his savior and helped Yourong. Even if there was no such relationship, wouldn't it be reasonable for her, an eight or nine-year-old child, to be naughty? What do you know at this age?

"If it can make people look good and make them smile, it is also a good deed." Xia Houyu only spoke for a while, but his energy became a little unbearable, and he fell asleep after a while. Gu De was worried that he would have a fever in the middle of the night, so he stayed by his side all night, not daring to close his eyes.

 Fortunately, although his body temperature fluctuated, it finally came down.

 At the end of the whole night, Gu De and Shen Tang didn't say a few words.

 The latter doesn’t want to have an awkward conversation, and the former is waiting for the latter to take the initiative to ask. He couldn't hold his breath until the sky was about to turn white. When Shen Tang got breakfast for three people from outside, he said, "Aren't you curious why Zi Kuan and I are like this?"

"I'm not an interview host, why are you asking so clearly?" Shen Tang didn't have the habit of exposing people's wounds. "If you want to say it, you will naturally take the initiative to say it. If you don't want to say it, it's useless for me to ask."

Gu De didn't seem to expect that she would be so frank.

"...Zikuan and I once studied in the same academy. We studied hard for ten years, and finally achieved some success. I wanted to show off my talents, but the world was dim and my teacher was old, so we agreed to stay in the academy and become a master." Just like Shen Tang. Guessing that, Xiahou Yu was indeed of a high origin. His father's family had been in officialdom for generations, his mother was the daughter of a royal family concubine, and he had an aunt who was also a queen.

 If there are no accidents, you should be a winner in life.

 His life is very relaxed and he has a lot of choices.

 But unfortunately, I was born in a small country.

For any ambitious young man, the most painful thing is that his country is weak and his own abilities are limited. Even at the risk of his life, he cannot prevent his family and country from being humiliated and annihilated: “…the royal family wants to protect itself. Subduing the powerful enemy Qu Guo and even agreeing to attack the allies is tantamount to self-destruction. Naturally, the academy students cannot sit idly by after hearing the news. "

Seeking skin from a tiger is asking for death.

 The leader of Qu State was an extremely stingy person.

At that time, my motherland united with nearby countries to put pressure on Zhai Huan, the previous leader of Qu State, and caused a lot of trouble for people. They even provoked and beat their envoys. This was recorded in their account books! Now that the offense and defense have changed, can Qu Guo be able to settle the score?

These students are young and energetic and have done a lot of things.

The royal court was furious and ordered the arrest of the culprit.

Xia Houyu refused to give in. He also recognized the concerns of these students and did not understand his uncle's foolish behavior. If this continues, the country will not be defeated! These words successfully angered the king! The envoy from the State of Qu was violently beaten by students. He also recalled the unpleasant past during Zhai Huan's administration and asked the royal court to hand over the attacker. Xia Houyu was worried that students from ordinary families would die if they were arrested, so he took the lead himself.

“He was caught just like that?” Gu De nodded: “Yes.”

Xia Houyu is the nephew of the king of the country. His parents are of extraordinary background. These titles are unattainable in the eyes of the common people. But in the eyes of Qu Guo, he is just an ant from a small country, and he is still an ant who offends him. If he is not severely punished, Where is the majesty of a country? This time the envoys came to visit violently. What do you want to do next time?

 Qu Guo demanded severe punishment.

 Severe punishment is said to be severe, but the subtext is that Xia Houyu's head will be demanded.

 The royal family cannot withstand this pressure.

Not to mention the queen's nephew, even the king's son, as long as he is not the heir to the ancestral temple, can be sacrificed to appease the anger of the country! After a lot of running up and down the academy, he finally got a "reduced sentence" - the death penalty for breaking up the government.

When the envoy from the State of Qu was informed of the result, the envoy had a complicated expression: "It would be better to kill a righteous man with such a severe punishment than to be humiliated alive." That’s all, this matter doesn’t need to be pursued. 】

Gu De wanted to burst into tears when he heard this.

 Hand deeply feel the powerlessness caused by the disparity in strength.

“So, both of you are from the Sun Kingdom?”

Gu De shook his head and denied: "No."

 Their homeland fell before Sun.

 This is also the inevitable outcome for a small country in troubled times.

Before the rise of Qu State, the relations between the small countries in the southwest were relatively harmonious. They knew that if they continued to fight, each of them would be destroyed, so they simply formed a non-aggression alliance. Gathering the forces of small countries to fight against powerful enemies around them, life is relatively stable.

 Until this balance was broken by Qu State.

From the previous generation of ruler Zhai Huan, who was capable of both literary and martial arts, to the current generation of ruler Zhai Le, who was poor in literature but strong in martial arts. Both generations liked to make neighbors to death. Not only did it take place on the battlefield, but they also planted spies and continued to do so with conspiracy... Finally, this alliance of interests was half-dead. In the past few years, it has been annexed one by one by Qu State, and even an alliance cannot check and balance its development.

Gu De sighed: "The general trend of the world is that if we unite for a long time, we will divide, and if we divide for a long time, we will unite. This is the eternal truth. It's a pity that Zi Kuan was implicated in this matter and ended up like this."

Shen Tang said: "I heard, I just heard that if Zikuan has good talent, he still has a chance to recover Wenxin."



How could he not know the method Shen Tang said?

 However, it’s just about showing off one’s skills, not selling one’s body.

"Zikuan's temperament, he would rather die than accept such humiliation. Wen Xin will be gone if it is gone, but you can't even decide your own life..." Gu De directly rejected Shen Tang's temptation.

 Literary scholars are very proud.

This arrogance does not lie in Danfu Wenxin but in his heart.

Shen Tang gave up for the time being: "After talking about Zikuan, let's talk about you?"

Gu De laughed and shook his head, mocking himself: "What can I say? I'm just an ordinary person with no power. If I really want to say there's something extraordinary about it, it's probably because I'm luckier than others. My mentor was traveling abroad and occasionally heard a baby crying. A couple found me in the arms of a couple who died tragically in each other's arms, so they took me back to raise me. My only ambition in life is to be filial to my mentor and help him take care of his life's work..."

Unfortunately-

Before his death, his mentor set a fire and burned the academy to the ground.

 He moved around to make a living, dawdling around as a hanger-on.

The Sun Kingdom was destroyed, so naturally the old boss also ended up not having a good end.

　　Gu De asked in a tone as normal as possible.

“I’ve finished talking to Zikuan, what about you?”

 When you expose Lao Di, you can’t just expose others but not yourself.

Shen Tang blinked his eyes with an innocent look on his face.

This movement and expression were pleasing to the eye on the original face, but on the current vest, it did not arouse any pity from others, so Gu De was indifferent. Shen Tang's eyes almost blinked: "I told you, I ran away from home to start a business..."

 “Last name, first name, first name?”

Shen Tang said: "Shen, Xing Wu, the word is Dali!"

 Gu De: “…”

There’s no need to be so perfunctory when trying to lie to people, right? As soon as I hear his and Zi Kuan's names, I can tell the correct origin. It seems that they are both well-read poetry and books. How could they use such outrageous names as Shen Dali?

Shen Tang curled his lips and said, "Believe it or not."

 Gu De: “…”

 It is completely bright outside.

“It’s almost the appointed time, I’ll go get the balance first.”

Just in time to see what silly guy is asking for contraceptive prescriptions.

When Shen Tang was completely gone, Xia Houyu, who had been pretending to sleep, slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the broken wooden door. Seeing that he was lost in thought, Gu De said, "Zikuan, you don't really want to..."

If it were Xia Houyu back then, he could be calm even if he lost his literary heart.

 Wen Xin has never been Xia Houyu’s confidence and retreat.

 But what about him who has experienced all this?

Xiahou Yu said: "This lady wants me to help her."

Gu De didn't know why he suddenly mentioned this.

Xia Houyu murmured: "But, if I serve others in order to restore Wen Xin, wouldn't it be impossible for me to help her?"

 There is some contradiction between the two.

Gu De heard the unfinished words in his words.

"This is impossible, the person named Zhai is not far from here."

If he was really the holder of the national seal, he would have been discovered long ago.

Xiahou Yu said: "She is not the original deity."

 Gu De: “…”

"Or does Yourong think that a female monarch like her cannot have a national seal?" Xia Houyu smiled and talked about another seemingly unrelated matter, "Brothers Zhai Xiaofang and Zhai Yuewen traveled abroad in their early years. I heard that I’ve been to Northland…”

Zhai Xiaofang's daughter could become the queen's concubine because Zhai Yuewen strongly recommended it before her death. After that, special cases of women being able to practice appeared in the territory of Qu State. Xia Houyu didn't know if the two brothers did it on a whim or if they were inspired by something.

 “You don’t even know who she is.”

Gu De did not want Xia Houyu to take risks.

"If the entrustment is not done to someone, I will die at the worst. I have no extra choice, but I have room for you, and you shouldn't be like this." Xia Houyu's eyes gradually became firmer, "I have to get better first before I can think of a way to save you." The ban is lifted.”

I always thought that my **** for code words was wrong (the first time I came into contact with computers was in the computer class in junior high school. When I was bored, I used the software that came with the computer to practice typing. I remember that there was still a frog pattern that jumped and jumped with the code words) Last year, I suffered from tenosynovitis for several months. I had to get rid of my usual straight keyboard. I used Alice and got used to it well. When I mentioned this to my friend, I realized that my **** method was actually standard.
