Daughter Of Rebellious Minister

Meng Zixian was a bit surprised that Song Qishen took the initiative to thank her. She teased, "Master Song is actually polite to me?"

Song Qishen was annoyed by the teasing. He glared at her and didn't expect Meng Zixian to laugh like this.

"I have to thank you for saving me in the water."

"I made a mistake this time and caused you to suffer. I have to apologize."

Song Que was very honest. Meng Zixian was lying on the bed, smiling silently. His heart was beating fast, "It's nothing. Don't worry about it."

Meng Zixian listened to Song Que talk and felt sleepy. She didn't hear what he was saying. Song Que saw that she was asleep and quietly looked at her.

For a long time, Song Que had always felt like he was carrying too much. For what he wanted, he had carried too much pressure, experienced life or death, so he had thought this through.

Meng Hao rose to his feet and helped Meng Zi to suppress the quilt. Then, he silently left the room.

Meng Zixian slept well. When she woke up, she found that she was surrounded by white eyebrows, who were taking her pulse. "These few days, have some light food, then take some medicine and take care of your body."

"That's right, we have to help her walk around when we have time. It would be weird if she isn't crippled after lying down for so long." These words were said to the servant girl beside him.

After Abbot Whitebrow left, Meng Ziqin sat up. The servant girl he had been waiting for came over. Meng Zixian gave her a name. This servant girl was newly arranged by Bai Lan. Her name was Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu helped Meng Zijing out of the bed and slowly walked out. The light in the room had always been dim. Coming out today just so happened to be a good day.

The weather was warmer, and the sunlight seemed to be very bright. It seeped out from the dark blue clouds and the ground was dyed gold.

Meng Zixian stretched out her hand and felt the warmth. She looked out into the distance and saw that under the golden light, the sea looked like it was covered with gold pieces. The waves of the sea were rippling and the golden light was shining.

"The people of the imperial government have finally arrived."

Someone's voice came from behind him. Meng Zixian didn't even need to turn around to know that it was Song Lianhe.

Song Que stood behind her with his hands behind his back. He watched as the boat gradually progressed. The flag of Dongsheng was stuck into the boat.

Although this period of reconstruction was fruitful, it was still not enough. As early as two months ago, he had already sent out a request for assistance. Only after such a long time did he slowly come back.

The boat gradually approached and stopped at the shore. Gu Jing Cheng received the news and arrived. It was the Minister of Rites, Cong Zhi Xian. He saw Gu Jing Cheng kneeling and bowed, "Greetings, King Jing."

"Don't worry about the profits. Why are you only here now?" Gu Jingcheng spoke with a more natural tone, as if he was familiar with Cong Zhixian.

Cong Zhixian stood up, slightly bent his back and stretched out his hand, "Let me talk with you."

The two of them walked to the side. Cong Zhi Xian whispered to Gu Jing Cheng, "Your majesty, for some reason, we've been suppressing this for a long time. This time, I've come to ask you to return immediately.

Gu Jingcheng frowned: "Is that person reliable?"

"Your Royal Highness, according to your orders, the first candidate wasn't chosen. Although this person doesn't have much power, his background is still clean." Cong Zhixian replied respectfully.

Gu Jing Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. Although he couldn't control his surroundings, he was still lucky to have a clean background.

"Send him to see me."

The other new official was called Jiang San. He didn't have a lot of words on him, so he looked very sincere. Seeing how nervous Gu Jingcheng was, he kneeled down and saluted.

Together with Song Que and the four others, Meng Zixian stood on the other boat and casually looked at the two boats. There weren't many soldiers on them, but they were filled with all sorts of things.

After an unknown period of time, Gu Jing Cheng led the way, with a few people following behind him. A serious look appeared on their faces.

"Bring the things down!" With Cong Zhixian's order, the soldiers started to move the supplies they were wearing downstairs. The commotion on their side had already alerted the common people. Some of them surrounded the area and watched carefully.

"The silver is distributed according to the population. If the family is in a difficult situation, it is given twice as much." Gu Jingcheng instructed in Jiang San's ear, "Now you're a new official. You can do this personally and build up your prestige."

Jiang San nodded hastily and, after receiving the order, sent someone to take him to the temporary shed to look at the questionnaire.

Gu Jing Cheng and Song Que stood to the side. "The emperor told us to return quickly. He's worried that we'll take control of this place."

"The Emperor is beginning to suspect us." Song Que muttered to himself in a low voice. He only saw that Gu Jingcheng seemed to match his words: "It seems like he's not as stupid as he looks."

Meng Zixian looked at them with a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she turned her head and continued to admire her scenery.

Song Que and Gu Jingcheng had only been supervising for half a month and everything had been settled. They were ready to go back.

The night before she went back, Bai Lan had found Meng Zixian.

"Sister Meng, I want to go back with you."

Meng Zixian raised her eyebrows and asked, "What about your family?"

At the start of Duke Huai An's Hong Gate banquet, Bai Lanxin had gone with his father. That man had his throat cut, and right now, all of the members of the Bai Clan were under the control of Bai Lanxin.

"I didn't care about this clan from the beginning." A look of disgust appeared on Bai Lanxin's face. He continued, "Don't think that I don't know how my mother died that year. He also participated in a part of it. Since I've already avenged my great enmity, I want to leave this place."

Meng Zixian looked at him seriously. She suddenly felt that Bai Lanxin was not as obedient as she thought. However, he was very honest and told her a lot of things.

"Four noble families, now only the Bai Lan and Yang family have no leader. If you leave, what about the rest of the Bai Lan family?" Meng Zixian looked up at him, "As a man, you can't be so selfish. When you chose to take over, you were responsible."

"And didn't you say you were going to be a manager? "What, now that this matter is over, you don't want it anymore?"

The reason why Bai Lan Xin wanted to be the person in charge of supporting the Chamber of Commerce this time was because he wanted to control the Bai Lan family and the real Bai Lan family to avenge himself and his mother. However, things happened too quickly.

"I want to go with you." Bai Lanxin stood in front of Meng Zixian with a wronged expression, like a puppy that had been abandoned. Meng Zixian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Meng Zixian smiled. "Even if you go back with me, you won't be able to stay by my side."

Bai Lanxin looked up in surprise. Meng Zixian explained, "I'm not really Song Qi's or Gu Jing Cheng's men, I just have an agreement with Song Qi."
