Chapter 137 Pretending, Who Can't Act Like It!

If it was before, Su Jian would not have thought too much.But with the news that Zhan Zhan might have an accident, and the general's mansion suffered some damage before, she had to change her mind a thousand times.

In ancient times, imperial power was supreme.

When studying history, most of the literary inquisition and misfortune from the mouth began with disrespect for imperial power.This shows that those in power absolutely do not want their rights to be challenged.

And the people below shouted long live, did they mean it or did it not?

And... There are outsiders outside!

Su Jian stood up, cupped her fists respectfully and looked at the sky: "We can have a good harvest and have a good life today, all rely on the grace of the Lord Long Live, we should really shout Long Live, may our Majesty live forever, forever Years old. Only when His Majesty is well can we be really well."

Zhang Da was puzzled by Su Jian's behavior, but Su Jian mentioned long live and thousand live, and he also realized the inappropriateness of the stewards calling Su Jian just now.Fortunately, it was inside the General's Mansion. If it was outside, others might think that the General's Mansion had disobedience.

"Madam is right, let us bow to the sky together and thank the Lord Long Live for his grace."

Zhang Da took the lead, and all the stewards in the courtyard kowtowed and shouted long live.

After Su Jian felt that it was almost the same, she quietly moved her gaze to the gate of the yard, but she never saw the corner of the clothes again.She was suspicious in her heart, but she couldn't turn a blind eye after all.When I went to have a look, there was no one outside the courtyard.

"lady?"

"Zhang Da, you know kung fu, did you feel someone outside the yard just now?"

Zhang Da was puzzled: "Returning to Madam, there can be no one outside the yard. Without Madam's permission, it is impossible for outsiders to enter the General's Mansion."

Su Jian didn't doubt what Zhang Da said, but she clearly saw it just now...

"Dengdengdeng."

There was a sound of footsteps, Su Jian looked at the person who was coming, and seeing that it was Su Qin, she restrained her emotions a little: "Why is the eldest brother here?"

Su Qin looked at Su Jian and hesitated to speak. He accidentally knew that Su Jian and Qin Zheng had met, and he also roughly knew why Qin Zheng fell ill after returning home, and he couldn't afford it.He originally wanted Su Jian to go home and visit him.But Su Jian was always busy, and he knew he was wrong, so he never dared to call Su Jian.

But when Qin Zheng fell ill, he hadn't improved for several months.The man Qi Mo didn't listen to him again, so he still came to find Su Jian.

"Little Jane."

"Ah."

"I...I think..." Su Qin opened his mouth, but couldn't express his intentions. When he met Su Jian's gaze, he closed his eyes and opened his mouth and said, "The magistrate is here, and he is in the front yard."

Su Jian frowned, the magistrate is here?If there is nothing to go to the Three Treasures Hall, what is he doing here?Could it be that they heard that the grain harvest in their mansion was bumper, so they came up with the idea of ​​her family's grain again?

When Zhan Zhan was in need of food at the front, she never thought of donating. Now that Zhan Zhan may have an accident, she is even less likely to donate.

Food is the foundation of the General's Mansion, and it is also the result of her hard work. She cannot give it away easily, especially if it is handed over to the county magistrate. She is not sure how much will fall into the hands of people who really need food.

The county magistrate held the teacup and was not in a hurry to drink the tea, but looked at the water in the teacup for a moment. Is it rice husk that serves as tea?
"Master County Magistrate, this is tea made from rice husks. Drinking it properly can improve your loss of appetite and indigestion." Xionghong said, the more she followed Su Jian, the more she felt that Su Jian was knowledgeable.She never knew about these things before, and she heard from Su Jian that rice husk can also be used as a substrate.She doesn't know what a substrate is, but Su Jian said that putting it in the farmland after it is done can promote the growth of crops.That's good stuff!
But these benefits, unless Su Jian said it herself, she would never say it.

The county magistrate's lips twitched, but he didn't take Xionghong's words to heart.Even if the general's mansion had a good harvest of food, even if the gates were rebuilt, it still couldn't change the fact that the inside was in distress.The distinguished guest came to the general's mansion, but he couldn't even bring out decent tea, and even made the maid deliberately talk about how good rice husk tea is, she has no ability, but she wants to save face.

It really is a woman's style.

The county magistrate put down the teacup. He couldn't drink such tea.

When Su Jian came in, what she saw was the county magistrate's distaste for her family's tea. She looked down at her clothes, and regretted why she changed into women's clothes on purpose.It stands to reason that the county magistrate is not a distinguished guest, so he should salute when he sees her. Isn't she giving the magistrate too much face?

"Ma'am, you're setting up a facade for the General's Mansion."

Song Siqi's voice rang in her ears, Su Jian glanced at Song Siqi, was her thoughts so obvious?She restrained her emotions and walked directly into the hall.

Seeing Su Jian appearing, the county magistrate got up to salute, but saw that Su Jian didn't look at him at all, and just skipped him and sat on the main seat, the light and shadow in his eyes flickered.

Su Jian didn't look at the county magistrate, and didn't speak, she waited for Xionghong to serve the tea.After Su Jian took a sip of the tea, the sweet taste in her mouth made her feel better. Putting a little sugar in the rice husk tea made the tea much better.

"lady."

Su Jian heard the county magistrate's voice, and looked up at the county magistrate: "Why haven't you taken your seat yet, my lord?"

The county magistrate's eyelids twitched. Su Jian was obviously asking the question knowingly, not to mention that he was a guest, but since Zhan Zhan's position was higher than him, it was not good for him to take a seat before Su Jian said: "Sir, sit down now." .”

Su Jian watched the county magistrate take his seat, looked at him indifferently, and initially knew the county magistrate's appearance.Younger than she thought, if she didn't know that he was the county magistrate, she might think he was a gentle scholar: "The county magistrate is here to condolences to the general's residence?"

The county magistrate was taken aback, looked at Su Jian in surprise, and was about to speak when he heard:

"It's been a year since the general went to war. For a whole year, there's been no news." Su Jian lowered her eyes, her voice filled with loss and worry: "I can only firmly believe that no news is good news. I want to come to the county. Lord Ling probably can't see that our General's Mansion has no male master, and the family is full of old and weak women and children, so he must come to see if we need help, right?"

After saying that, Su Jian raised her head, her Yingying eyes were fixed on the county magistrate.

The county magistrate was taken aback, surprised at Su Jian's weakness at the moment.But after being surprised, he was even more shocked in his heart. He knew that Su Jian should not be underestimated, but he didn't expect Su Jian to be so smart.He actually knows how to make a head start.When she opened her mouth like this, it was hard to make the request he had originally prepared.

But if Su Jian thought that he could deal with it like this, she would underestimate him too much.

"Originally, I wanted to help you, but when I saw the general's mansion, it was even more magnificent than when the general was there. Everyone in the mansion was full of vigor, and I heard that the Zhuangzi in the mansion had a good harvest. Even if the general was not there, the lady supported the general. government."

really!Su Jian looked at the county magistrate, who was quite eloquent, and she pretended to choke up a few times: "There is no way, the general is dedicated to the country and the people, and he is loyal to the Holy One. As his wife, as his slave, naturally he cannot Drag him back. But our ability is limited, so what can we do, we can only live our own lives, so that the general will not have to worry about the future, so that His Majesty does not need to be distracted to take care of us."

"..."

"Master County Magistrate, I wonder if this counts as loyalty to His Majesty?"

The county magistrate looked at Su Jian, and his eyes met each other. He wanted to see through Su Jian's eyes, but failed. There is a better way for Madam to show her loyalty to His Majesty."

Su Jian slowly raised the corners of her lips. Did the county magistrate finally reveal the purpose of coming here?

"Oh? Is there a better way? Please tell me, my lord."
