Chapter 183 Goodbye
Lin Wen had just walked out of Huai Town and was about to go back to the dike to work hard when Qin Luoshuang called him back.
Lin Wen grumbled, "What happened again?"
Qin Luoshuang had a calm expression. Yun Zhixing stood beside her, blinking at him frantically.
An exquisite gift was placed on the table. She pushed it forward and said coldly, "This is a gift from the First Princess to you, and there is also a letter."
"Oh? What is it?"
"How should I know?"
"Wouldn't you know if you opened it?"
Lin Wen complained and walked forward to open the gift.
"You're so lazy that you even want me to take it down."
Although Qin Luoshuang's expression didn't seem to change, the aloofness she exuded suddenly became much less. Yun Zhixing gave Lin Wen a thumbs up behind her.
Lin Wen said unhappily, "What's wrong with you? Come and help me, this ribbon is too tight."
Yun Zhixing was stunned and hurried over to help.
After a while, the exquisite gift box was opened, and a statue carved from crystal and white jade appeared before his eyes. He held a sword high in one hand and tore open the cage with the other, looking very majestic and domineering.
Lin Wen was disappointed: "It's not money. Let's go. What a waste of time."
Qin Luoshuang said, "There's still a letter, don't you want to read it?"
"See for yourself."
Qin Luoshuang glanced at him with a slightly complicated expression, but still opened the letter.
Lin Wen was about to leave when Yun Zhixing called out, "Chief Lin, there's another gift!"
He handed over a pink gift box.
When Lin Wen opened it, he found that it was a black, soft, unidentified object. He picked it up and looked at it carefully.
"What is this? Black silk?"
Qin Luoshuang looked up, but Lin Wen handed the unknown object to her: "Put it on and let me see."
Bang!
A heavy book hit him in the face.
"Forget it, forget it, it's boring. I'm leaving."
Just as he was about to go out, Qin Luoshuang called him back.
"Lin Wen, wait!"
Lin Wen glanced at her sideways and asked, "Change your mind?"
A blush flashed across Qin Luoshuang's face: "What are you thinking about? I mean this letter."
"What happened to the letter?"
"This letter is to win you over! They hope you will join the princess's faction and work for the princess and restore the glory of the imperial power."
"oh."
"Oh what? Aren't you the First Princess' husband? Why are you acting like a new person you don't know?"
Lin Wen complained, "Who said I was the princess's husband? Who said that? This is slandering my reputation, you know? Arrest him immediately, charge him with crimes against humanity, and sentence him to work for me until my death."
Yun Zhixing was embarrassed and kept scratching his face: "Uh, the sun is so strong today..."
Lin Wen ignored him and repeated, "Who said that?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Luoshuang pointed at Yun Zhixing, but Yun Zhixing pointed at him.
Lin Wen pointed at himself and asked curiously, "I said that? Did I ever say that?"
Seeing Qin Luoshuang's icy gaze, Yun Zhixing panicked and shouted, "Chief Lin! Didn't you say that publicly? Don't hurt me! I'm loyal and would never deceive the young lady!"
"oh."
Lin Wen finally remembered what he had said casually.
"You believe this? Do you have a brain? Qin Luoshuang, I think this person is too simple and may not be suitable to work by your side."
Yun Zhixing was completely confused. He had said it so decisively at the time, and the First Princess then sent troops to attack Yu Zhongxian. Could this not be true? Anyone in their right mind would believe it was true, right?
Qin Luoshuang's eyes were filled with smiles, but she still pretended to be serious and said, "I will consider it carefully."
"Okay, it's alright, I'm leaving now."
"Wait, how do you respond to the princess's solicitation?"
Lin Wen didn't even turn his head.
"Give me the money first, and we'll take care of everything else later."
Lin Wen's back quickly disappeared into the distance, and the office became quiet for a moment.
Yun Zhixing looked at Qin Luoshuang with a sad face, but the latter ignored him.
After a moment, Qin Luoshuang asked, "You said Xia Xiaoxiang replied? What did she say?"
Yun Zhixing's expression suddenly changed. He said cautiously, "The owner said that there are vicious dogs that have received a large reward and are biting very hard, but they have fallen into the trap set by their wise owner. They will stop at Dapeng Village in a week. We need to find a way to get rid of them so that she can return without leaving any trace."
Qin Luoshuang nodded: "The situation is better than I thought. Maybe we don't need the help of the Dragon Group's agents."
Yun Zhixing picked up the black, unidentified object belonging to the First Princess. It was neither silk nor cloth, and he couldn't tell what it was used for. He rubbed it, feeling it was silky smooth. He asked, "Miss, what on earth is this?"
Qin Luoshuang's face darkened, as if recalling some unpleasant memories: "This is Li Linyue's usual method to win over men. If it's a woman, it's a different matter... Put it down!"
Yun Zhixing awkwardly pulled the thing off his head and scratched the back of his head. "Miss, do you think County Magistrate Lin has any relationship with her?"
Qin Luoshuang fell into deep thought, and after a long while, she said, "There shouldn't be a deep relationship, and being lovers is even less likely. Now it seems that Li Linyue is still the same. She doesn't like men very much, only women..."
She suddenly fell silent.
Seeing Qin Luoshuang's cold face, Yun Zhixing tactfully stopped asking.
——
Lin Wen still failed to successfully return to the embankment.
Because when he was about to walk out of the county hall, Fang Weiwei rushed over to tell him that Yang Shaohu had been awake for three days, his body had recovered well, and he was able to work. He really wanted to meet County Mayor Lin.
This is a great talent who will succeed Wolong, and is also an important component of the Shaking Good Fortune Tree, so he must not be neglected.
Lin Wen immediately went to the First Hospital and met Yang Shaohu, a spirited young man, in the ward.
All the scars on his body had miraculously disappeared, and he was even better than before, with smooth and fair skin, like a baby's.
This is the effect of [Yangzhi Ganlu], which can enhance the body's natural recovery ability, so that some keratin, dead skin, acne, and scars on the skin are all dissolved, while restoring all sub-health and hidden diseases in the body.
The doctors at the First Hospital marveled at this miracle more than once, believing that Yang Shaohu was born with a special physique, and repeatedly invited him to conduct scientific experiments.
But they were all ruthlessly rejected by the staff of the County Government Office, because County Chief Lin had already instructed that he was an important person and would play an important role in Changshan County.
Yang Shaohu was in very good spirits. He smiled with surprise as soon as he saw Lin Wen coming.
Lian Mei immediately brought a stool and started peeling the apple.
Lin Wen, who had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu, opened his seven-orifice mind.
The Seven Apertures Heart, which had been silent for a long time, immediately burst out with infinite enthusiasm. It gave its all and performed crazily, and soon it amused the two people to the sky, making them feel as if they were in the fairy palace and talking to immortals.
A moment later, the dean rushed in with a group of chief physicians. He took Lin Wen's hand and said that Yang Shaohu had a unique innate pure yang constitution among millions of people. As long as Lin Wen nodded and dedicated him, the imperial medicine would usher in great development again, and Changshan County First Hospital would go down in history.
Lin Wen immediately turned off his Seven Apertures Heart and blasted them out.
After all this commotion, Lin Wen didn't want to continue and said, "Shaohu, now that you've fully recovered, start working immediately. Your current position is Assistant to the County Magistrate, assisting Deputy County Magistrate Zhao Minggong in handling all administrative affairs of Changshan County."
Yang Shaohu and Lian Mei looked at each other and said, "Chief Lin, I cannot officially take up the position. If I do, my name will be listed in the Imperial Personnel Department. Chief Yu Zhongxian will soon know that it was you who rescued me."
Lin Wen laughed and said, "Shaohu, you haven't understood the Changshan County way of doing things yet. Go ahead and don't worry about that old dog. If it weren't for the wrong opportunity, I would have killed him long ago."
He patted him on the shoulder and said, "Work hard. I have high hopes for you." He stood up and walked out.
Lian Mei looked at Shao Hu's profile worriedly and said softly, "Yu, Yu, Yu..."
She gritted her teeth and uttered the last two words: "If the old dog knew, he wouldn't come after you, would he? Isn't County Chief Lin afraid of offending him?"
Yang Shaohu's eyes were sparkling. He looked at Lin Wenyuan's receding back as if he was looking at a burning light.
Hearing Lian Mei's words, he smiled slightly: "Lian Mei, you don't understand. I just realized it too. County Chief Lin and Yu Zhongxian have been sworn enemies for a long time. What does it matter if he offends him a little more or a little less?"
"But, but..." Lian Mei still had something in her mind that she hadn't figured out.
Yang Shaohu smiled and said, "Go your own way and don't be afraid of offending others. This is probably what County Chief Lin said about the Changshan County way."
He looked down at his smooth hands and sighed, "I really didn't make a mistake. I was worried that the heroes in my imagination might be different from the heroes in reality."
Lian Mei gently pulled his thigh and snorted, "Are you afraid of your idol being shattered, huh?"
Yang Shaohu smiled and said, "You don't know, human imagination is the most terrifying thing. Sometimes it helps you fill in too many details, so that when you see the reality, your spirit will be shocked and traumatized. You don't want to experience that feeling of shattered idols."
Lian Mei whispered, "I know you said that admiration is the feeling furthest from understanding."
Yang Shaohu's eyes were filled with emotion. "But now it seems that I was too conservative. County Governor Lin is far more of a hero than I imagined. His courage and vision are what I must first learn from. I must discard all the bad habits I've accumulated in the Council and integrate here as quickly as possible."
Lian Mei did not have the same heroic feeling as him. She only felt the sense of security brought by stability and strength.
She looked out the window and whispered, "Perhaps Changshan County is really our home."
