"She seems to be afraid of you."

Night, Procuratorate.

Ouyang Rong walked out of the ward and came to the corridor. Rong Zhenzhen stood in front of the railings, waiting for him with his back turned, and suddenly spoke.

"Ah, why are you afraid of me? Who?" Ouyang Rong asked with a stunned expression.

"President Pei."

Rong Zhen turned around, looked directly at Ouyang Rong, and spoke solemnly.

"Have it?"

"Um."

Rong Zhen nodded and whispered:

"She started trembling all over as soon as you came closer to talk. These details cannot be hidden from me, and although President Pei doesn't look at you much, his attention should always be on you and he should be very concerned about your reaction.

"The emotion revealed by those subtle movements, fear of you should be second only to fear of the moon."

After hearing this, Ouyang Rong chuckled, put his hands behind his back, walked to the railing beside Rong Zhen, and looked at the night outside the corridor.

Rong Zhen saw his calm demeanor and said in a joking tone:

"Looking at it this way, maybe she wasn't frightened by the moonlight just now, but maybe she was frightened by me."

Rong Zhen looked away from him and shook his head:

"Monophobia is not fake, but fear of you is also real. President Pei is probably afraid that you will retaliate against her. I have made some inquiries.

"You were demoted to Sima before, and after Lin Cheng and Wang Lengran came to power, they lifted the ban on the renovation of the old houses in Xingzifang that you had been suppressing. Chairman Pei and the late Shen Bingqiang followed the trend, fawned over, and became their pawns.

"President Pei should know that I have offended you. Now that you have not only been promoted to governor, but also have the power of life and death, she is naturally afraid of your retaliation. This is only human nature. She does not know that you are magnanimous and that you are a gentleman and do official business."

It's a public matter, regardless of past grudges."

After hearing this, Ouyang Rong couldn't help but sigh:

"It makes sense. Rong Nushi is very thoughtful."

Rong Zhen tilted his head slightly, thought for a moment, and whispered:

"It's not good to keep her worried and frightened all the time. Come and visit more often in the past few days, express your attitude, ease misunderstandings, comfort her, and don't let her guess. The calm look on your face just now would make anyone afraid, even more

What's more, she is a businesswoman with all-round intelligence and sensitive mind..."

"good."

Ouyang Rong looked at the girl in palace clothes in front of him who was always thinking about him and patiently admonishing him, and nodded.

After a while, he changed the subject:

"Are you hungry?"

"What?"

Rong Zhen was slightly startled, thinking that he heard wrongly.

"I asked, are you hungry?"

"Hungry..."

"What does it mean to be hungry? Rong Nvshi doesn't even know whether she is hungry or not?"

Ouyang Rong laughed and shook his head, turned around and left temporarily:

"Wait a minute, Liu Lang is over there in the carriage. I asked him to bring the chicken soup over so that Nv Shi can try it. This black-bone chicken, yam, and red date soup was made by my aunt herself. It has just come out of the oven and is still hot..."

Rong Zhen asked in a strange tone: "Did you specifically ask your aunt to cook it and bring it to me?"

Ouyang Rong shook his head honestly:

"No, my aunt cooked it for me. I was planning to take it to Jiangzhou Hall to drink with Rokuro and Yuan Changshi, but I learned that Mrs. Pei was awake halfway, so I brought her here along the way."

Seemingly not noticing the pretty face of the girl in palace attire in front of him and the corners of her mouth gradually turning downward, he smiled and said:

"Didn't Rong Nushi say that she wanted to express her attitude and comfort her? She just asked Liulang to send some chicken soup to her to replenish her health.

"But let's try something. If Rong Nushi is hungry, isn't it? Hey, is Rong Nushi not feeling well? Why doesn't she look so good..."

Ouyang Rong was halfway through speaking when he noticed that the female historian was looking at him expressionlessly and asked in a low voice.

"No." Rong Zhen asked patiently: "Has Governor Ouyang finished speaking?"

"Uh, I should finish talking."

"oh."

Rong Zhen nodded, turned around and left, leaving behind:

"I'm not hungry, and I don't like to eat or drink during official duties. Governor Ouyang, please drink slowly. You can give some to President Pei, it's up to you." His tone was cold and distant.

"..."

Ouyang Rong watched the moody female historian disappear around the corner, but she was used to it and shook her head.

He turned around and looked in the direction of the hospital bed.

"Are you afraid of the moon? It's interesting. Are you more afraid of the moon, or are you more afraid of me? Which one scares you faint...forget it, it's actually the same."

Ouyang Rong patted his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and walked away.

Went to see Yan Liulang to deliver chicken soup.

She must have Yan Liulang deliver it to her in person.

…

Pei Shisanniang's awakening kept the Overwatch Council busy for a while.

As the number one witness to the murder case of the collapse of the Xingzi Lake Buddha, Rong Zhen and other female officials did not want to give up. They interrogated her about many things, but found nothing.

Pei Shisanniang didn’t know why she could survive alone.

It would be too obvious to say that she is an accomplice of the owner of Die Lianhua. Moreover, if that is the case, it would be very simple to cover up this. All you need to do is inflict some minor injuries or save Shen Bingqiang's life and have a companion with her.

, only Wei Shaoqi, Lin Cheng, and Wang Lengran died...

After all, living two lives is better than living just one, which is more low-key.

But there is no if, this is the fact.

After repeatedly confirming that Pei Shisanniang was innocent and had no motive for murder, Rong Zhen and other female officials had no choice but to focus on investigating the people Shen Bingqiang had offended or the people Pei Sanniang had benefited from.

This is another big project, and the progress of the case is once again as slow as a turtle.

However, after persistent efforts, Rong Zhen was able to obtain a relatively detailed confession, which clarified a key point:

The tripod sword in the shape of a clear blue moon was indeed the first to emerge from the face of the Buddha's head.

This more and more supports the possibility that Ouyang Rong and Rong Zhen once discussed, that is, the tripod sword was first hidden in the Buddha's head, and the owner of Dielianhua either relied on the Qingtong mask to transform to avoid the sound of the piano, or Yinjun ate it

The tortoise-shell beetle has the invisibility power, which is logical...

With a vague direction, Rong Zhen got busy again.

Ouyang Rong, who had finished his Spring Festival holiday, entered the Jiangzhou Hall and the Governor's Office the next day and began to deal with the mountain of affairs.

With the excuse of delivering chicken soup to Ouyang Rong to appease him, Yan Liulang stayed in the Supervisory Yuan. When Pei Shisanniang was interrogated by the female officials, Yan Liulang was also there, and even made many suggestions that the female officials found useful...

That afternoon, Ouyang Rong, who had been busy for most of the day, walked out of the Governor's Mansion.

He boarded the carriage, sat with his eyes closed, rubbed the bridge of his nose tiredly, and whispered: "Go to Xingzifang for a stroll."

At present, in Xingzifang, including the Xingzi Lake construction site, a large number of former slum buildings have been vacated, bought and sold, and then razed to the ground.

Less than half of these lands are in the hands of the governor's office, and most of the rest are in the hands of wealthy Yangzhou businessmen such as Pei Shisanniang.

Ouyang Rong opened the corner of the car curtain and stared silently at the changed Qingyang Street and other streets outside.

He suddenly remembered what Yan Liulang asked him last time.

What to do here?

"How to deal with it... Isn't it just a matter of having hands? It's such a simple thing? They have all taken the blame, leaving this large piece of clean land, and they just need to build new houses on it step by step, and provide it with both hands.

I am, eh..."

Ouyang Rong sighed, looking a little embarrassed.

When he first took office in Xunyang City, he actually had no ambition to mess with Xingzifang at all, because it was too much to do more than good. The existence of this kind of urban slums had its own meaning and operational logic. Forcibly correcting it would only change the problem.

The layer of skin suddenly appears somewhere else.

But now, Wang Lengran and others boldly touched the restricted area, and did not hesitate to bear the infamy. They pushed forward forcefully, which opened up the situation of Xingzifang and left him a good legacy... However, Wang Lengran and the governor's office had previously harmed their interests and forced them to continue.

The people of Xingzifang still need Ouyang Rong to show up to comfort them and appear as "Qingtian".

However, why did he feel that the unscrupulous government was playing both bad and good tricks? But now that Xingzifang has reached this point, naturally he cannot go back, otherwise the losses will be even greater, so he has to reluctantly give this king Lengran longed for a long time.

The peaches of political achievements have been plucked...

When Ouyang Rong looked strange and had mixed feelings, Yan Liulang suddenly got into the carriage.
To be continued...
