Wei Ci couldn't remember how long it had been since he had slept so peacefully. Even the nightmares that plagued him had disappeared without a trace.
It was a good night's sleep.
When he woke up, it was already late in the morning. His side was still warm … It was as if the person beside him had just woken up.
He frowned slightly. She just woke up?
Others said that she was undisciplined, but in fact, she was more disciplined than anyone else.
No matter how late she slept the night before, she would wake up on time the next day to practice. She never slept in.
Wei Ci reached out and touched it. He found that the source of the heat was two hot water sachets wrapped in heavy cloth.
Then, where did the real Jiang Pengji go?
In the government office, Feng Jin and the other two had already begun to deal with government affairs. Xu Ke's expression was a bit sour. His brows were tightly knitted.
Jiang Pengji saw it and asked curiously, "Who provoked Xiaoyu? Why do you have such a scary expression so early in the morning …"
Xu Ke heard the voice and looked up at his lord. His eyes were bloodshot and he looked a little sleepy.
Feng Jin smiled and said, "Yesterday, Hanmei came back and said that more than 500 people were trapped in the mountains. He wanted to send troops to rescue them. If they were rescued, Xiaoyu would have to arrange accommodation, warm clothes, and food for them overnight … There are too many trivial matters. Xiaoyu didn't sleep last night and didn't eat this morning. Naturally, his expression doesn't look good. "
It would be strange if Xu Ke's expression was good after working overtime in the winter.
"Yes, Xiaoyu has worked hard." Jiang Pengji teased him. "Why don't we pick a time and have a barbecue with you?"
Qiguan Rang rested his chin on his hand and said coldly, "Now that the snow has sealed the mountains, my lord shouldn't run around. Spend the winter in peace."
Jiang Pengji had gone out to hunt yesterday for the barbecue gathering. In the end, she had brought back more than 500 "burdens." Poor Xu Ke didn't get to eat barbecue and hotpot. Instead, he had to work overtime the whole night.
Thinking of that scene, Qiguan Rang couldn't help but feel sorry for Xu Ke. It was not easy to be a housekeeper in the county.
Jiang Pengji sat down on the main seat. "What do you mean spend the winter in peace? Your lord doesn't hibernate."
Qiguan Rang rolled his eyes. "I heard that my lord carried a person and galloped all the way from outside the city to the district headquarters?"
Office gossip!
Xu Ke and Feng Jin seemed to be doing their job seriously, but in fact, they were secretly listening. They wanted to know who that person was.
Seeing how his lord valued him so much, the other party couldn't be an ordinary person.
Jiang Pengji admitted it openly. "Yes, I thought that the strange man died of illness. There's no one on the street, so we won't bump into any commoners. "
Xu Ke showed a surprised expression. There was something wrong with this scene.
Xu Ke knew very well what kind of person his lord was. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was cold-hearted. If it wasn't someone very important or a good friend, she wouldn't even bother to pay attention to them … Who exactly was the person she had saved?
Not only him, but the other two were also very curious.
Jiang Pengji raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "What's with your expressions?"
"I'm just a little curious about who that person is. Is he a close friend of the Lord, or …"
"Other than Wenzheng, Huaiyu and Xiaoyu should know him. This is Master Yuanjing's disciple, Wei Ci, Wei Zixiao. " Jiang Pengji did not hide anything. She said directly, "But he's very sick now. He can't even get out of bed. I'm afraid he'll have to rest for a while before he gets better. Don't disturb his rest for now. When he recovers, he should come to the government office. "
By then, there would be another highly capable employee. There would be hope to share the administrative work.
When Xu Ke heard Wei Ci's name, he suddenly thought of something. His ears turned slightly red.
He had a problem with voices. He had a deep memory for a pleasant voice. Wei Ci was one of them.
Feng Jin and Wei Ci had first met many years ago at Ji Shan's hot spring. They could be considered to have met once.
Qiguan Rang was more worried. What if Wei Ci was not easy to get along with and destroyed the internal unity?
Master Yuanjing's disciple. Wei Ci had enough capital to be proud of his identity.
Thinking of this, Qiguan Rang secretly frowned. He planned to ask Feng Jin and Xu Ke in private to be mentally prepared.
Feng Jin and Xu Ke could understand Qiguan Rang's worry.
"Wei Zixiao's personality is a little cold, but he's a gentleman. He shouldn't be too difficult to get along with."
Feng Jin and Wei Ci had only met a few times. They didn't have a deep conversation, so their understanding was limited.
In comparison, Xu Ke knew a little more, but it was only superficial knowledge. It couldn't be considered a true understanding.
Qiguan Rang sighed and said, "Looks like we have to wait for his condition to improve before we observe him."
With Li Yun's hard work, more than five hundred people who were trapped in the deep mountains were safely rescued.
"This is Xiangyang District. Are we really not in Shangjing?"
Once he entered the city, Zhang Ping felt that his eyes were not enough to take in everything.
The ground was paved with green bricks. The road surface was flat and both sides of the street were clean.
Not only that, there were things labeled as "trash cans" at intervals on the street. Occasionally, people would go out to the streets.
Looking at them, they didn't seem to be wearing much. But in the cold wind, they didn't shiver. Didn't they feel cold?
Zhang Ping looked left and right. He realized that the houses here were different from ordinary houses. They were orderly, neat and beautiful.
Separated by a low wall made of green bricks, he could see that the eaves were laid with neat tiles. There wasn't much snow on the roofs. Occasionally, there were people climbing ladders to sweep the snow off the roofs …
From the people's attire and expressions, there was no trace of a disaster. When sweeping the snow, they were still talking and laughing.
Compared to these people, they really looked like refugees who escaped from a disaster.
The district headquarters sent people over to register the people's temporary household registration. Zhang Ping blended in with the crowd and heard a familiar shout from outside.
Was it Dian Yan?
Where was Zixiao now?
Zhang Ping searched for him. Li Yun also noticed the commotion here and came over to ask.
Li Yun glanced at Zhang Ping and asked, "Brother Dian, is this the other teacher you're looking for?"
Zhang Ping's current image was a little pitiful. But his facial features were regular and his eyes were clear. One look and you could tell that he was a magnanimous and upright gentleman.
Dian Yan nodded and took the initiative to tell Zhang Ping, "Mr Zixiao has been taken to see a doctor. He'll be back when his condition is better."
Zhang Ping's brows twitched. Why did Dian Yan's words sound so strange?
Dian Yan said, "Mr Xiheng, the wind here is strong and cold. Let's go back first."
"Go back where?"
Zhang Ping turned his head to look behind him. Didn't they say that they would only be arranged accommodation after registering the temporary household registration?
Li Yun smiled and explained to him, "The lord has already made arrangements. The two of you don't have to live together with the people."
They weren't familiar with the roads in the district city. Li Yun took the initiative to lead the way. Naturally, they couldn't ask for more.
But the more they walked, the more Zhang Ping felt that something was wrong.
"This, this shouldn't be a place for the ordinary people, right?" he asked.
"Of course not," Li Yun replied and didn't continue.
