Chapter 171 Countdown to the Meeting
Yan Fei was arranged to stay in the tent at the edge, farthest from Xiao Yuan. Guards were patrolling outside the door and monitoring him tightly.
Xiao Douzi rarely made amends for Xiao Yuan by saying that the governor was worried about his wife's safety, and Yan Fei sensibly handed him a piece of silver.
He understood the rule that the lady of the house had to reward the most useful servant around her husband.
Xiaodouzi didn't refuse and thanked him with a smile.
It seems that after the fall of Ruyi Sect, this third in command did not live well off, so he had the nerve to spend only ten taels of silver.
When Xiao Douzi went back to report, Xiao Yuan was drawing on a piece of paper.
Looking at the paper doll, Eunuch Bean, with a weird smile on the drawing paper, I couldn't help but twitch my lips.
Their leader is a man of both civil and military talents, but he is completely ignorant of the arts.
If he plucked a string from a piano, it would break; if he played the flute, he would attract wolves; he learned painting to draw a portrait of his wife, but now he can only barely draw a woman.
It's these lines and colors that look so gloomy no matter how you look at them.
Xiaodouzi would also join in the fun and say that it would be difficult to draw a likeness if one relied only on one's imagination.
All great painters have models. When the lady is not around, we still have Yan Fei. I should be able to make greater progress by following his model.
Xiao Yuan thought about it and felt that it made sense.
It just so happened that he wasn't sleepy, so he asked someone to call Yan Fei, who was about to fall asleep, over.
Yan Fei bound his feet deliberately when he was dressed as a woman, and he had to imitate the graceful walk of a woman. Walking such a long distance made his feet sore.
This was not the most uncomfortable thing. What was uncomfortable was that big bowl of deer blood soup made him uncomfortable.
Something always got in his way when he folded his legs together and imitated the girls' walk.
Yan Fei thought that Xiao Yuan had changed his mind. His physical discomfort turned into hatred and he secretly thought about how to torture Xiao Yuan after knocking him down.
I am not a cleavage man, but there are no women here who can tolerate this. It is not impossible to use the dead eunuch as a sacrifice.
But when I got there I found out that they were going to paint his portrait.
No, I stayed up late at night and called my wife to my tent just to paint her portrait.
There's something wrong with you.
Unfortunately, she is now playing the role of a gentle, obedient and devoted wife, and has to endure any dissatisfaction she has.
As expected, the eunuch's wife has all the responsibilities except the normal duty of giving birth to a child.
With a model, Lord Xiao was inspired and drew three consecutive pictures of...paper beauties.
In line with the principle that he should not just be disgusted by himself, Xiaodouzi specially showed the painting to Yan Fei, saying that he wanted the lady to appreciate the governor's masterpiece.
Yan Fei almost couldn't control the expression on his face. He couldn't say anything else and could only smile.
As a master of disguise, Yan Fei's painting skills are quite impressive.
He dared to say that even if he held the pen with his feet, the paintings he drew would be better than Xiao Yuan's.
Is this a painting of a person?
Two big eyes, a bulbous nose, and a small mouth as big as a fingernail. The bamboo in the background is painted like a mourning stick, which looks very ghostly.
The key point is that this thing was actually drawn after him. Oh, no, it was drawn after Jiang Xinyu.
He really wanted to grab Xiao Yuan by the collar and ask him, if your wife really looks like this, would you still marry her?
How blind and handicapped must one be to paint such a beautiful woman like this?
I guess it would be better if Jiang Xinyu was buried in the ground for three days and then dug out than this.
Xiao Yuan also knew that his painting was not like the real thing, so he frowned and tried hard to recall the key points taught by the painter and spread out the drawing paper again.
His current state is that his brain says he knows it, his eyes say it's easy, but the hand holding the pen says you two are talking nonsense.
If it was really his wife who was the model, Xiao Yuan would not be willing to let her go. It would be so painful for her to stay motionless.
But Yu Ping didn't feel sorry for him at all. He drew seven or eight pictures in a row. Even Xiao Douzi felt sleepy and advised him to take a rest before he let Yan Fei go.
At this time, Yan Fei had been standing for more than an hour and his legs were straight, all three legs were straight.
After being rejected again when asking for shelter, he could only reluctantly walk back to his tent.
I originally wanted to do something at night, but now I don’t have to do it. Just focus on yourself first. Those who understand will understand.
Yan Fei has always been very patient, and he did not get discouraged even though he had a bad start the day before.
After getting up early and using his gadgets to touch up her makeup, she crossed half of the camp to go to Xiao Yuan's place to show her presence.
Hiss, my legs are a little weak.
Unfortunately, Xiao Yuan had no time to deal with him. It was impossible for a large army to stay in a small village, and they were about to set off as soon as he arrived.
Fortunately, the carriage he was riding in was still there. If he were really allowed to get off, he would probably have dropped the carriage and run away immediately.
Xiao Yuan didn't want Yan Fei to walk around with his wife's face on his head, so he asked Xiao Douzi to give him a piece of cloth to cover his face.
Yan Fei took the cloth without hesitation. He understood the eunuch's possessiveness!
Seeing how cooperative he was, Xiaodouzi knew that this guy must have made up something again, but it didn't matter.
He ordered people to keep an eye on the lady and not to wander around, then returned to the governor and continued his work.
Although Xiao Yuan has a bad taste, he also knows the importance of things. The sooner he finishes the disaster relief, the sooner he can be reunited with his wife.
This kind of fake figurine can be played with when you have free time, but you can't delay your important work.
Yan Fei watched from afar as Xiao Yuan directed the distribution of food and medicine and sneered inwardly.
Buddha and devil are just a thought away.
Who would have thought that King Xiao Yan, who was so perverted as to torture his wife, could actually be kind-hearted.
He had seen some officials providing disaster relief before. Even if they didn't go to the front lines, they were considered to have a conscience just by leaving some porridge for the victims.
Could it be that this dead eunuch has killed too many people and feels guilty about it, so he wants to accumulate merit in this way?
Yan Fei touched the medicine hidden in his sleeve and smiled grimly.
When he gets the chance, he will add some ingredients to the disaster relief rations. Even if Xiao Yuan manages to escape from him, he will have no chance of escaping.
No matter how much the old emperor loved this useful dog of his, he had to kill him to avenge the people's resentment.
When Yan Fei was planning his evil idea, Jiang Xinyu saw that He Bi knew about the fake goods before her.
When they set up camp again in the evening, Jiang Xinyu had already passed the village where they had camped before and was heading this way.
Xiao Yuan's disaster relief method was to send a large force with sufficient food and medicine and doctors to stay along the way.
Every time they arrived at a relatively central village or town, they would bring some people and supplies for disaster relief, and the rest of the team would continue to move upstream along the Yellow River.
Generally, depending on the number of disaster victims in the surrounding area, at least one to three doctors and twenty to fifty soldiers would be left behind.
The Dongchang bandits often only keep two or three leaders, who are very loyal to Xiao Yuan and can play a supervisory role.
You can look down on the character of the Dongchang fans but you can't look down on their income.
To be honest, the soldiers guarding the grain might resell the disaster relief grain for a few taels of silver, but the foreigners in the East Factory certainly would not.
Those who have been raiding houses for a long time would never look down on such a small amount of food. If they were to go for these few pounds of relief food, they would be afraid of being laughed at by their peers.
Jiang Xinyu had nothing to prove her identity, but Xiao Yuan's secret guards all had badges.
When they arrived at the soup distribution point, the leading guard immediately knew they were their own people as soon as they showed their badges.
When he heard that the person in front of him was the real lady, he broke out in a cold sweat.
After hearing the story about how the governor and the fake lady were affectionate and feeding each other yesterday, Jiang Xinyu broke the whip in his hand with a snap.
The four secret guards looked at each other and lit a candle for the Overlord.
Others may not know, but they do know that the governor was afraid of his wife out of love.
Later on, of course there was pampering, but their leader might not be able to beat the lady now.
The reason why Jiang Xinyu was angry was not because Xiao Yuan was ambiguous with someone else, but because he was seeking his own death without knowing the seriousness of the matter.
She knew that there was absolutely no way Xiao Yuan would mistake her, and that he was just teasing Yan Fei on purpose if he didn't expose her.
After all, Yan Fei was using her face, and this bastard of hers could be quite naughty sometimes.
But he didn't even look at the time.
Those who drown are all good swimmers. Boats sailing on large rivers and lakes may capsize in small rivers and ditches.
The disaster area is already full of crises, but he still placed a time bomb next to him. Does he think his life is too comfortable?
It was a waste of her time traveling thousands of miles to worry about him, but this guy actually made a poisoned doll to tease her.
Okay, okay, let’s play it this way, ok?
Wait for me to come over and have some fun with you!
