Qin Yuan was the top scholar in the imperial examination, but the female emperor was a昏君 (enlightened monarch in reverse, meaning a foolish ruler). He had no choice but to idle away his days, h...
Jingzhou government office.
Qin Yuan was sleeping on the table as usual.
Wei Wuyin pushed the door open and saw this, then shook his head helplessly.
He closed the door and was about to leave when he looked up at the time. He immediately walked to Qin Yuan, pushed his shoulder, and said:
"Junior brother, the sun is shining on your butt, it's time to get up."
Qin Yuan waved his hand, turned his head away, and muttered:
"Brother Wei, please stop making trouble. It's rare that Brother Chen goes to the morning court. Just let me sleep a little longer."
Wei Wuyin patted Qin Yuan on the shoulder and said jokingly, "Junior Brother Qin, you look listless all day long. It's obvious that you have kidney deficiency."
Qin Yuan yawned, "Huqiu said, I just have nothing to do, thinking about life."
Wei Wuyin put his arm around Qin Yuan's shoulders and said with a smile:
"Junior Brother Qin, I've been through this before, so go to bed early and don't stay up too late with Junior Sister."
"We boys are out there alone, so we have to protect ourselves and not let Junior Sister drain us."
"Brother Qin, you must know that there are only cows that die of exhaustion, but no fields that are plowed to death. There is a long way to go, so you must take care of yourself."
Then he whispered in Qin Yuan's ear, "By the way, Junior Brother, I know a great doctor. Would you like me to introduce him to you? I'll ask him to prescribe some medicine for you. I guarantee you'll be able to take care of Junior Sister completely."
Qin Yuan propped up his head with one hand, yawned, and said in surprise:
"Good fellow, Senior Brother Wei, you're only thirty and you're already taking drugs and medication?"
"Brother Wei, you really can't do this."
Wei Wuyin's old face flushed, and he rolled his eyes at Qin Yuan, "Junior brother, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"A man can't say no. I will punish you severely."
"Twelve times a night, no problem!"
Qin Yuan stood up and stretched.
Then he patted Wei Wuyin's shoulder.
He whispered, "Brother, you can lie to your brothers, but don't lie to yourself."
"Brother, I also have a piece of advice—"
“Even medicine is three-part poison, and the iron must be strong itself.”
"I have a secret recipe that will ensure that you will be able to kill gods and Buddhas on the battlefield, and be extremely brave."
"oh?!"
Wei Wuyin's eyes lit up, and he pricked up his ears. He asked anxiously, "What secret recipe?"
As he spoke, he took out paper and pen from his sleeve.
Grind while doing it.
While looking at Qin Yuan with longing on his face.
The whole set of movements is incredibly smooth.
Qin Yuan was stunned and said with a wicked smile:
"Zinc lift, squat, pull, the next book is top-notch."
Zinc squat...
Wei Wuyin picked up the pen and wrote three words, then froze in shock. He asked in confusion, "Junior brother, what does this mean? You have to explain it to me!"
"No problem, no problem." Qin Yuan's smile widened. "Brother, come closer and listen."
Wei Wuyin had no doubts and approached happily.
"Zinc means eating more..."
unexpectedly.
Chen Wujiu suddenly pushed the door open and walked in, sat down on a chair, and said dejectedly:
"Two junior brothers, disaster is imminent. Our Jingzhou Prefecture is in dire straits. You two should resign and run away."
"As the prefect of Jingzhou, I have a heavy responsibility on my shoulders and cannot leave my post without permission. Whether I live or die depends entirely on fate..."
Wei Wuyin saw that the situation was not right and did not bother to explore the unknown.
He walked quickly to Chen Wujiu's side and asked:
"Old Chen, what happened?"
"We've known each other for so many years, am I such a coward?"
"When the enemy comes, we will fight them; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. Now, tell me what happened."
"After all these years of going through wind and rain, this is the first time I've seen you look like this."
"We've all worked together to get through this complicated, tangled mess in Jingzhou. What else is there to be afraid of?"
"well--"
Chen Wujiu hung his head, lost in thought, and sighed deeply:
"Old Wei, this time is different. It's a dead end..."
Wei Wuyin frowned and said in a muffled voice, "What on earth happened?"
Chen Wujiu seemed to have just woken up from a dream and sighed again: "Alas, it's still about disaster relief."
"Disaster relief?" Wei Wuyin was even more puzzled.
"Yeah..." Chen Wujiu felt hopeless.
"Your Majesty, I have come up with a new disaster relief plan and want our Jingzhou Prefecture to implement it."
"What method?" Qin Yuan suddenly became curious and said with a smile, "What's wrong with her? Instead of cultivating immortality, she wants to govern the country?"
Wei Wuyin shuddered, and said, "Junior Brother Qin, be careful with your words!"
Chen Wujiu also seemed to have given up, no longer as cautious as before: "Junior Brother Qin is right, it would be better if she could focus on cultivating immortality in peace, instead she just does whatever she wants to do every day."
"Today, I suddenly came up with the idea of using work for relief, and we need to implement it."
"This isn't implementation, it's clearly a death sentence..."
Wei Wuyin exclaimed, "Work-for-relief? Is that the work-for-relief that Junior Brother Qin mentioned last time?"
Chen Wujiu suddenly came to his senses, "Tu(艹皿艹)!"
"Junior Brother Qin, we have no grudges against each other, why are you trying to harm me?"
Qin Yuan was confused. "Brother Chen, why do you say that? How could I harm you?"
Chen Wujiu said excitedly, "If Old Wei hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that His Majesty's so-called work-for-relief policy is exactly the same as your idea!"
"Uh... no way?" Qin Yuan was also a little surprised.
Wei Wujiu's mouth twitched as he scolded with a smile, "Junior Brother Qin, you're not having an affair with her, are you?"
Qin Yuan flatly denied it: "Pfft, pfft, pfft! Senior Brother Wei, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"No, no, no! Old Wei, you're right." Chen Wujiu also came to his senses and said affirmatively, "Junior brother, a few days ago you also suggested mixing sand and rice bran into the disaster relief grain, right?"
"If once is a coincidence, how can twice be a coincidence? There are not so many coincidences in this world!"
"Junior brother, come clean, are you two having an affair?"
