MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 43 caught

  Chapter 43 Caught

  Su Rong went back to the inn, and the journey was very smooth, and she never met anyone who wanted to kill her.

  The inn where she stayed was very quiet, she tiptoed to her room. Passing by Zhou Gu's door, the door suddenly opened, Zhou Gu was wearing a middle coat, and looked at her with his arms folded, "Where did you go?"

  Su Rong was startled, and looked up at him, thinking that it is easy to go out and difficult to come back, if she sneaks out quietly, and then sneaks back in quietly, Zhou Gu is totally ignorant, then Zhou Gu is really not vigilant, and it is useless to practice martial arts since childhood.

  She rubbed her nose, stopped obediently, and handed the wine she was carrying to him, "I'm going to buy wine."

   "Drunken flower drink?" Zhou Gu raised his eyebrows, "Can you drink such strong wine?"

  Su Rong blinked.

  Zhou Gu approached her, "You smell like alcohol, how much have you drank?"

  Su Rong told the truth, "One altar."

   It’s actually one and a half jars. The first half of the jar was given to the land father-in-law when he met an assassin.

   "It's ok, I drank a jar of wine by myself and came back without changing my face, I underestimated you." Zhou Gu raised his eyebrows, "Then did you bring these two jars of wine back to continue drinking?"

  Su Rong shook her head, "I bought it for you."

   "You have a conscience." Zhou Gu took the two jars of wine and taught her at the same time, "A family with a daughter, don't run around in the dark and midnight, relying on your own ability, don't you know the heights of the world? Or is it that Jiangning County has good law and order, so you can keep the door open at night and not pick up things?"

   "It's not that far yet." Su Rong listened to Zhou Gu sternly lecturing her, feeling very relieved, and shook her head, "I won't do it next time, I just slept too much during the day and couldn't sleep at night, so I went out for a stroll."

  Zhou Gu let out a "hmm" and remembered something, "I've always wanted to ask, why is there no beggar in Jiangning County? Not even a single person in rags?"

   "Oh, this is my father's good governance. Every penniless person who enters the Jiangning area can go to the government's relief center to help for ten days. After ten days, he will receive a wage. With this wages, he can do some small business and settle down. There are also various policies given by the government as follow-up help. Once implemented, there will be no beggars."

   "Where does the government get the money? This rescue center needs a lot of money, right?" Zhou Gu wondered, "Besides, there are various policies that need money to support it, right?"

  Su Rong thought that Zhou Gu was really not empty, she nodded, "The tax from the government, donations from local wealthy households, and the beggars who were helped to settle down will also pay a part of the settlement fee for migrants to settle in Jiangning every year. In short, wait. If you are interested, you can find my father when you go back. My father will definitely be happy to tell you about it in detail."

  Zhou Gu understood the general idea, "It turns out that this is the reason why Jiang Ning, although rich, can only provide for himself, and does not pay more taxes to the court every year."

  He was puzzled, "I heard that His Majesty sent people to investigate Uncle Su. Later, he was not found out for corruption. He didn't have a tael of silver. I laughed angrily. I must have known about Jiangning's policies to benefit the people, but why didn't everyone implement them? Not to mention everywhere in the world, just from the capital to Jiangning. I saw many beggars, and many people didn't seem to know that Jiangning was in such a good situation."

  "Jiangning County cannot be replicated." Su Rongxiao, "Because there is a person in Jiangning, the number one scholar in the third year of Zhengde. He has great talents, but he doesn't like the imperial court. He has traveled all over the world for many years. Later, he came to Jiangning and got along with my father, so he settled in Jiangning. far."

  Zhou Gu suddenly said, "I know Xie Yuan, so he has been staying in Jiangning County. When I was studying with me in the East Palace, Qin Taifu praised Xie Yuan very much, saying that he is a great talent. It is a pity that he will not enter the court or be appointed as a Marquis."

   "It's not a pity to benefit the people of one side, right?" Su Rong asked.

   "It doesn't count." Zhou Gu shook his head affirmatively, "Where is he now? Can you take me to see him tomorrow?"

   "He was invited by Yunshan Academy to teach last month. He should come back when I reach my birthday." Su Rong shook his head, "If you stay until my birthday, you will be able to see him."

   "When you reach the end of your life, he came back on purpose?" Consultant Zhou: "It's good for you!"

   "Yes, Uncle Xie never married, he treats me like a daughter." Su Rong yawned.

  Seeing that she was sleepy, Zhou Gu stopped talking and waved to her, "It's so late, go back and rest!"

  Su Rong let out a "hmm" and went back to the room.

   Zhou Gu saw that Su Rong had returned to the room, and closed the door with the wine. After putting the wine down, he turned on the lamp and looked at the two jars of wine on the table. Until she sneaks back.

  The guards of Duke Huguo's Mansion, although they are not top-notch experts, are all good at one against ten, and no one even found out when she went out, and no one reported to him, a pile of waste.

   Thinking again, if her fiancée married into the Duke Protector's Mansion, it would be very easy for her to climb over the wall and get out. She has good skills, but I don't know where she learned it.

  Also, this drunk flower drink cost a jar of a hundred taels of silver, besides drinking it herself, she also brought back two jars for him, quite rich?

   Zhou Gu no longer felt sleepy, so he simply opened a jar of wine, sat in front of the window and drank it. After drinking one jar of wine, he felt that the drunk flower drink was really good wine, so he opened another jar of wine and drank it all at once.

   After drinking two jars of wine, Zhou Gu got a little drunk, so he went back to bed and fell asleep again.

  After taking a bath, Su Rong smelled the smell of wine coming from the next door, and wanted to laugh. After a few silent laughs, she slowly stopped laughing. Stretching out her hand to fiddle with the wick, under the flickering light, she took out the dagger, intending to take a closer look, but under the light of the fire, a special engraved mark was faintly revealed, she stopped suddenly, and squinted her eyes to take a closer look.

   It turns out that there is a mark, but it can only be revealed by looking at it by candlelight?

   Echo?

What means?

  She frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't think of a reason, so she simply put away the dagger, turned off the light, and went back to bed to sleep.

   There will definitely be more Jiagengs, don’t worry, see you tomorrow~
