Chapter 207: The Lone King Has a Disease

Qin Lei heard Chai Shifang kneeling on the ground, and did not open his eyes, nor did he let him get up. Instead, he said softly: "Give me a reason to convince me, otherwise I will not be noisy!" Although the voice was weak, it was unquestionable.

Chai Shifang kowtowed and said, "The little one is not enough to convince the public. Even if he is forced to take office, he may be hindered from multiple sources. If he misses the prince's big matter, the villain will die."

Qin Lei coughed a few times and gasped slightly, saying, "The Xu family should not raise their heads in the yamen for ten years. The Xu family will also be calm for a few years. The weakest Qiao Zhuo family are left. Do you have more than a hundred and dozens of families, but you still don't have the confidence to compete with them?"

Chai Shifang said in a little surprise: "Didn't the prince say that we can unite with sincerity?"

Qin Lei lamented in his heart, why is this black man a bad guy? But what he wants is Chai Shifang's simplicity. The Fuxing Yamen is not a trivial matter. As long as it operates normally, it will be more than the governments of the two provinces in less than a few years. Giving it to a person like Chai Shifang is much better than becoming a paradise for ambitious people.

With a heavy whisper, Qin Lei patiently explained: "Only united to the outside world, but on the inside, the Lone King does not want the whole family to be the only one. Do you understand?" The implication is that, except for Prince Long, the Fuxing Yamen is not allowed to have a second absolute authority.

Chai Shifang is not stupid, he just likes to think about things better. After listening to Qin Lei's words, he understood that the prince wanted to support himself, replace or even surpass the Xu family, and become the third force that can compete with the traditional three. It is much easier to pinch the three everyone than the leaders and three everyone. If he doesn't agree, he will be ungrateful. He quickly responded respectfully and said in a deep voice: "I will definitely be..."

Qin Lei smiled faintly and said, "No need to express his determination. I have heard these days my ears have been called out. Let's show you good things."

Chai Shifang smiled embarrassedly and asked, "Please give me a guideline, so my subordinates can have a standard."

Qin Lei nodded slightly and said softly: "Three points, first, we should not welcome the three people too much while maintaining respect. If there is anything wrong with them, we should argue with reason in the deliberation bureau. If we really can't argue, we can hold a deliberation meeting to vote. This way, there will be a buffer, so that the Lone King has time to understand the whole story and make it easier to mediate."

Chai Shifang nodded and remembered, "Secondly, when treating the governments of the two provinces, while maintaining respect, you must keep a distance and not follow everything. Otherwise, you will become a vassal institution of the government and not waste your efforts on the Lone King's sake, but also disappoint the gentry and the people."

Chai Shifang hesitated for a moment and asked softly: "If the government forces us to suppress us, should we still use the previous method?"

"Yes, drag it!" Qin Lei nodded with satisfaction and said, "As long as the Lone King is still there, the governors and governors of the two provinces will not be arrogant." After coughing a few more times, Qin Lei laughed at himself: "Don't look at the Lone King being sick now, in fact, he is in good health. It's okay to live a hundred and eighty years old."

Speaking of this, Qin Lei finally opened his eyes and said firmly: "Gu believes that the Fuxing Yamen will never need the protection of the Gu King."

Chai Shifang said yes with sternness.

"Third, focus your attention on restoring the vitality of the two provinces. This is clearly written on the development outline of the Lone King. Tell me what do you need to do from now until the beginning of winter?"

Chai Shifang thought for a while and pondered: "After the autumn harvest, we will carry out winter wheat planting support in the province, and continue to provide the people with brick and wood materials for building wintering houses, so that everyone can enter the house before October. During the slack season in winter, we will organize the people to rest and recuperate the roads, dredge ditches, and strive for a major change in the south next year."

Qin Lei nodded and smiled and said, "It's right. Winter wheat should be planted well and the re-efficiency rate in the fields. People will not have to worry about filling their stomachs next year. Winter houses must be repaired. Originally, the winter months of our provinces will not be too cold. If people are frozen to death, I only ask you. As for organizing the people to build roads and dig ditches, you can pay less money and you must take care of the full meal. This year, people generally do not have food in their homes. If you feed these whole laborers, you can feed the food they save, and add some more money to the family to survive this difficult winter. If you starve fewer people to death, you will have more strength next year."

Looking at Chai Shifang's dark face, Qin Lei said in a stronger tone: "Don't worry about money. This year is a year of spending money. If you spend less, you will not be able to achieve results next year. But no one is allowed to waste! I will send someone to review at the end of the year." When Chai Shifang responded, Qin Lei waved his hand gently and said: "Go and do it well." As he said that, he closed his eyes, as if he had exhausted all his energy.

After Chai Shifang bowed and left, Shi Gan came in. When he wanted to ask Qin Lei if he would see Xu Qianshan, he found that he had fallen asleep. Shi Gan thought about it, covered Qin Lei's quilt, blew out the light, and tiptoed out.

After coming out, Shi Gan went to Xu Qianshan's room and said to Xu Qianshan, whose face was still calm like water: "The prince is too tired and can't see guests today." Xu Qianshan did not show any disappointment, but nodded and said in a gentle voice: "Thank you, Brother Shi, then I'll go back."

Shi Gan knew the importance of Xu Qianshan and knew that Qin Lei must meet him before returning to the capital, so he kept him and said, "Young Master Xu might as well stop here today to see if the prince can take time to see you tomorrow." Xu Qianshan smiled gently, "It's so great, Qianshan thanked Brother Shi." As he said that, he took out an envelope from his sleeve and chuckled, "Brother Shi will return to Beijing with the prince tomorrow, and Qianshan has nothing to give. Only this little bit of thought will not be respectful. I hope Brother Shi will accept it with him." Shi Gan refused for a few seconds and accepted it.

On August 30th, avoid getting into trouble and getting married, and traveling.

Before the third day, the guards and servants in the yard were already on torches and began to get busy. The guards raised the news agencies buried everywhere to avoid accidentally hurting future generations. They also had to load various combat armor, armor, equipment and supplies into the trucks one by one. The strong guards carried boxes of heavy armor from the warehouse to the carriage. Every time they put one, they would make a muffled sound, which scared Huang Zhao on the other side to the rush.

"Be gentle, you little guys, this is blood coral. If you break it, you can't afford to sell it all..." Huang Zhao's unique sharp voice kept ringing. "Be careful, oh, wrap some more cotton on this jade horse, you can't break it."

When Qin Lei returned to Beijing, the officials and gentry in Jiangbei were naturally polite. From the rare and precious coral screens in the South China Sea, colorful glass trees, to the porcelain and jade with southern flavors, there were countless prices. Although Qin Lei stipulated that each family would only collect the same amount as the same as the one in the following filial piety, the rest were returned. Even so, all kinds of antiques and treasures still collected tens of thousands of pieces.

Why? People are smart in giving gifts. You say that each family only accepts the same gift? Then we will give it separately. There are hundreds of people in a big family, and each family is considered a family. These are hundreds of items. Huang Zhao, who is responsible for registering and entering the warehouse, has long been worried about the wealthy family of the royal family. When he saw someone giving it away for free, he naturally turned a blind eye and accepted it all with a smile.

The morning breeze sent the noise far away, and even Qin Lei on the Red Mansion was awakened by a daze. He woke up once in the middle of the night. Seeing that the light was turned off, he really had no energy to speak, so he tilted his head and fell asleep again.

This night was the longest sleep he had just been in the past, but the quality was not very good. When he woke up, he felt as heavy as lead. When he moved, he felt like a needle prick. His head was also dizzy, and his temples jumped, as if blood vessels were about to burst.

Qin Lei knew he was sick, and he was sick on the last day in Jingzhou Prefecture. Should I be carried away? A strange thought surged into his mind. He opened his mouth to scream Shi Gan, but he didn't make a sound. He licked his dry lips, and then he tried hard to swallow and spit, and then made a sound: "Shi Gan..."

Although the sound was very light, Shi Gan outside the door also heard it. He pushed open the door open and saw Qin Lei's face of illness and half-death, he was shocked and approached Qin Lei, and tried his temperature. He said anxiously: "Prince, you are burning badly."

Qin Lei nodded with difficulty and said, "Yun Shang." Shi Gan remembered the female doctor and quickly ordered his men to call Yun Shang over quickly. He then personally mixed a bowl of honey water, scooped it with a spoon, and carefully delivered it to Qin Lei's mouth.

After drinking a few spoons of warm honey water, Qin Lei felt much more comfortable and said with a long sigh: "It seemed like it was on fire just now." Shi Gan said heartbrokenly: "Your Majesty, don't talk first, drink some water." After feeding Qin Lei a few spoons, he heard extremely light footsteps downstairs. When he turned around, Qiao Yunshang, who was holding his slender waist and breathing slightly, had already appeared at the door.

Yun Shang hasn't had a good sleep these days. First, he was about to part with Qin Lei, so he was full of separation. Second, Qin Lei's body was extremely tired, but he refused to rest for a moment, which made her very worried. Last night, she tossed and turned for a night, and the genius fell asleep at the third night. He didn't sleep for a long time. Then he heard the little maid outside call him and put on his clothes and went out. Only then did he know that the guards in the front yard came to invite him and said that Qin Lei was sick.

When Yun Shang heard this, he was immediately confused. The resentment of being neglected by the lover in his heart did not fly away. He said to Ruolan in the inner world, then spread his body and ran to the front yard. After a while, he arrived in front of Qin Lei.

When he saw Qin Lei's haggard appearance, Yun Shang's tears flowed down involuntarily and could not stop. Qin Lei waved his hand with difficulty and asked Shi Gan to go out first. When there were only two people left in the house, Qin Lei stretched out his hands to the beauty with pear blossoms and said softly: "Hug..."

Seeing that he was so ill, Yun Shang was both sad and funny, but he stopped crying. He turned around and wiped the corners of his eyes embarrassedly. Then he walked over and held Qin Lei's right arm with one hand, and stretched out his other hand and put two fingers on his wrist.

Seeing that his trick failed, Qin Lei had to embarrassingly withdraw his hanging left hand and sighed: "No need to take a pulse, it's useless."

Yun Shang heard him scaryly and said, "What's wrong? Is there any hidden disease?" Qin Lei said with a helpless voice: "Every time I go to Yun Shang's skin, my heartbeat will always accelerate several times, and naturally I can't see the real effect."

Yun Shang was both angry and funny, sweet and bitter. She knew that Qin Lei was making her happy, but when she saw his weak look, how could the girl be happy? She couldn't tell what she felt in her heart. After holding it in for a while, she was so anxious that she started crying. This scared Ruolan, who was panting, and fainted at the door with a moan.

Yun Shang quickly went over and picked her up, put her on the bed for a checkup, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said to Qin Lei, who was worried, "Sister Ruolan has insufficient blood these days, so she hurriedly ran on an empty stomach for a while, but she fainted temporarily and would wake up later."

Qin Lei nodded, Yun Shang pointed the finger at him again and said heartbrokenly: "You really think of yourself as Lu Dongbin? Do you know that if you do this injustice, you may die suddenly? If it is true... they will not live..." He cried silently again.

Qin Lei’s impression was that Yun Shang was a very strong girl, and she had never shed tears, at least he had never seen her. But today she seemed fragile, as if she was going to shine through the tears of her life. Although her mind was dizzy, he also understood that the girl was confused by the upcoming separation. He was no longer Chu Ge, and knew what to say at this time, and said softly: “Do you think it’s important to me for this disease?”

Yun Shang was indeed shamelessly distracted and sobbed in a low voice: "You are overworked and unable to get up. Fortunately, you are strong, but it is just a temporary yin deficiency that causes the fire to rise. As long as you activate the virtual fire and take good care of it, you will recover and there will be no problem."

Qin Lei said at this time: "I have any big problems, as long as it's okay." He said with anticipation: "Good Yunshang, can you find a way to get me right away?"

While gently kneading Qin Lei acupoints, Yun Shang said angrily: "Disease comes like a mountain, and disease goes like a thread to pull out silk, do you still need to teach you?" Qin Lei curled his lips and said: "What are you doing so fiercely? Be careful that the lonely king will give up you."

Yun Shang was also confused by Qin Lei and said angrily: "Then you have to marry me!" Qin Lei nodded and said solemnly: "Okay, I agree." Yun Shang was angry for a moment and couldn't speak.

Qin Lei raised his hand hard and gently held Yun Shang's cold little hand. Yun Shang was surprisingly not pulling it back and let him hold it. After he held the girl's face red, Qin Lei said softly: "Today is another day for Gu and Jiangbei's elders to talk to each other. At that time, many people should go to the dock to see me off. You don't want Gu Wang to be carried on the boat."

Yun Shang shook her head gently. Her lover was a god-like existence in the hearts of the people in the south. He was high and perfect. How could he use lying in bed as the end of this gorgeous performance?

Qin Lei tightened the girl's hand and said in a row: "The Lone King remember, when I asked you about blood killing, you said you would also be the way to temporarily stimulate your body's potential. Use it for me. It won't take too long, at most, only one hour, as long as you can make me like a normal person for an hour, even if you are bedridden for a month, I will admit it."

Yun Shang shook his head firmly and said, "No, that's too harmful to your body. I can't use that kind of method of drinking poison to quench thirst on you."

Qin Lei sighed and said, "I don't care. If this looks appear in front of the common people and gentry, it will be embarrassing. Many of the efforts I have made before will have to be wasted." He said seriously, "The destruction of image is much simpler and completely more complete than establishing it."

Yun Shang lowered his jade neck and murmured, "I know that in your heart, your career is the most important," and raised his tears, looking at Qin Lei with infinite regret, "But in my heart, you are more important than anything else..."

Hearing the girl finally revealed her feelings, Qin Lei felt infinite tenderness in his heart, and he was about to say something numb to respond. But a low cry sounded in the room. The two of them turned around at the same time, and Ruolan, who was lying on the bed, woke up and looked at the two of them with disbelief.

Qin Lei said oh, weakly: "The neck hurts so much!" Ruolan had no choice but to throw away the scene just now, get out of bed and gently massage Qin Lei's shoulders.

Yun Shang calmly pulled his little hand out of Qin Lei's hand, and whispered to Ruolan with a red face: "Sister Ruolan will accompany the prince first, and the little sister will prepare to treat the prince."

Qin Lei said in surprise: "Miss Yunshang, have you finally agreed?" Yunshang secretly glared at him and thought to himself, since this girl is embarrassing, let's do it for you! He left as if he ran away.

When she left, Ruolan smiled and said, "Miss Yunshang, when did the prince get so distant with Sister Yunshang?" Qin Lei laughed and said, "Haha, the right neck hurts, press the other side."

Ruolan was a girl with a clear mind. She knew that this kind of thing was not something a maid could do. A little jealous would only make the prince feel guilty and pity himself even more. If it was done, it would definitely backfire. Therefore, she stopped saying anything and massaged him seriously as Qin Lei told him.
