Chapter 743 I Am a Landlord (19)

Dugu Yi didn't say the details of how he left the capital, but Dugu Xiu didn't know about it. Anyway, he couldn't leave Baihe County now and had to stay in Shi Sheng's mansion.

How rogue and sophisticated Dugu Yi is can be seen from the fact that he lives peacefully in the Ruan Mansion.

Dugu Yi is a man who will do anything to save his life.

If Shi Sheng suspected that he would pretend to be a girl, he would agree.

…

Dugu Xiu came to Baihe County and did not hide his identity this time. Soon everyone in Baihe County knew that the regent was here.

Shi Sheng went to watch Dugu Xiu without fear of death.

Dugu Yi dressed up as a middle-aged man and followed Shi Sheng, "Ruan Xiaoyang, this king... I said why did you come to see him? He is the one who wants your life."

"Why are you following me?" Damn this retarded person who is afraid of death, it is not good to stay in the house, so I have to follow her, there is cat cake!

"I came to see what he was here for." Dugu Yi looked around with a sly look, causing the people next to him to look around again and again.

Shi Sheng held up his forehead.

When you are a thief, never think of yourself as a thief, stay calm!

Shi Sheng silently moved to the side.

Stay away from mental retardation and cherish life.

Shi Sheng saw Su Hua in the crowd. She seemed to have been dragged here. At this time, Su Hua looked a little confused when she saw Dugu Xiu holding the moon among the stars.

Dugu Xiu had a vague conversation with the county magistrate, and the people around him stood up and signaled the noisy people to quiet down.

"The prince is here this time for the palace draft. If there are girls of suitable age in the family, they all come to the county office to report."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Draft? How did you come to Baihe County for the draft?

This doubt disappeared in a flash, and soon these people were only happy. If their daughter entered the palace and was favored, it would skyrocket.

"Draft?" Dugu Yi scratched his ears strangely, "Why didn't I hear the news?"

"It's obviously an excuse!" Shi Sheng glanced at Dugu Yi.

"Of course I know." Dugu Yi couldn't change his words. After speaking, he covered his mouth. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he continued: "Don't you think this excuse is weird?"

What excuse is not good, use the draft...

Shi Sheng was silent, probably because he was talking to the heroine.

"Dugu Xiu married that... general Zhenbei's daughter?" Shi Sheng said suddenly.

"Married." Dugu Yi nodded.

Shi Sheng held a moment of silence for the heroine.

"Do you know why Dugu Xiu married her?" Dugu Yi approached Shi Sheng, eager to share the gossip he knew with Shi Sheng.

"Military power?" General Zhenbei held a lot of troops. Dugu Xiu married his daughter mostly for military power.

Duguyi stretched out a finger, "This is just one of them."

Shi Sheng's mouth twitched, what else?

Dugu Yi nodded, his eyes burning with the fire of gossip, he almost wrote "Ask me quickly, ask me quickly, ask me quickly" in big letters on his face.

Shi Sheng was not interested and didn't really want to ask.

However, Dugu Yi couldn't hold it in anymore, "I'm telling you, he and the guy from the General's Mansion actually had a secret relationship for a long time and had to marry."

Shi Sheng was shocked, "How did you know?"

"I bumped into him." Dugu Yi said proudly.

Shi Sheng: "..." I don't know what to be proud of.

"The last time he returned to Beijing and attended the birthday banquet of General Zhenbei, Dugu Xiu must have been drugged, and..." Dugu Yi stretched out his hands, faced each other, tapped his thumbs at the same time, and gave Shi Sheng a squeeze. You have a knowing look in your eyes, "And he was caught red-handed by General Zhenbei. Do you think he can refuse to marry me?"

Shi Sheng was silent. She was still a girl. Is it really okay to talk to her so openly?

But this male protagonist is being plotted against?

incredible!

The death of General Zhenbei's family has been anticipated.

Dugu Xiu had already entered the Yamen with the timid county magistrate. Shi Sheng saw the people around Dugu Xiu leading the heroine to the back door of the Yamen.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and most people went to spread the good news.

The palace draft is a temptation for many people. They long for the glory and wealth they will have after entering the palace, but only after entering the palace will they understand that the reality is much crueler than they imagined.

Many people took their girls at home to report to the county government. After the first level of selection, only some girls with good looks were left.

…

"Miss, Miss, it's not good, someone from the Yamen asked you to go to the County Yamen." Qiu Shui ran in from outside in a hurry.

Shi Sheng slowly opened her eyes, and the fire finally reached her.

Plot guy, you’re not dead yet!

"Miss, what should I do? I heard that girls with good looks have been chosen. With your appearance, you will definitely be chosen." If the lady is chosen, what will the Ruan family do?

"Go and see." Shi Sheng stood up slowly, patted the wrinkled skirt, and said arrogantly: "Go and see what these mentally retarded people want to do to me."

"Miss, you can't go!" Qiu Shui stopped in front of Shi Sheng, his eyes red with anxiety.

"If I don't go, there will be no end for them." Shi Sheng touched Qiu Shui's head, "Waiting for news at home, they don't dare to do anything to me."

"Miss." Qiu Shui's tears have accumulated in her eyes, and they will fall out as soon as she blinks.

Shi Sheng smiled softly and walked around Qiu Shui.

Qiu Shui bit her lip lightly, her heart skipped a beat, and she chased Shi Sheng out.

Shi Sheng didn't stop her and let her follow him.

There are still girls wandering around the yamen at this time. These are all the ones who were not selected, and some are unwilling to do so.

As soon as Shi Sheng appeared, these people started pointing at Shi Sheng and whispering.

"Look, look, the one from the Ruan family is here."

"She...should be able to choose, right?"

"Then, what do you think the Ruan family will do if Ruan Xiaoyang enters the palace?"

"With so much wealth, Ruan Xiaoyang is not here, but he is not allowed to be..."

Shi Sheng walked past these people without squinting. Qiu Shui glared at those people a little angrily before knowing what to say.

When entering the Yamen, Shi Sheng saw an acquaintance.

clove.

Being supported by a maid, she was crying so hard that there was a middle-aged man standing next to her, probably Ding Xiang's father, who also looked ugly at this time.

Ding Xiang pushed the maid away and grabbed Ding's father's arm, her voice choked with sobs, "Dad, I don't want to enter the palace. I have an engagement with the Second Young Master He."

"Daughter...Dad...there's nothing we can do about it!" Father Ding sighed. What can ordinary people like them do about the decision from above?

The people do not fight with the officials.

"father……"

Father Ding waved his hand, "Go in first, dad and your Excellency will talk..."

Ding Xiang walked inside while sobbing, and happened to enter the Yamen at the same time as Shi Sheng. She raised her eyes and glanced at Shi Sheng, probably feeling that she was in the same boat, and Ding Xiang lowered her head without saying a word.
