251 Rumors And Gossip
"In addition, if there's anything else that Lady Qin needs help with, just say it. As long as it's within this official's ability, I will not refuse."
Duanmu Xize brought up the matter of "remuneration" again. Mo Ruyue would not refuse this, but he added a special "favor" at the end.
Mo Ruyue originally wanted to refuse. The first two conditions were what she deserved, but if she didn't use the second one well, it would become something she could use against others.
However, on second thought, she realized that if this method was used well, it could also become a shortcut to quickly eliminate trouble. For example, it would have a miraculous effect on intimidating some villains.
"If Master Duanmu doesn't mind, I would like to borrow your tiger-skinned flag. Is that possible?" She nodded.
Duanmu Xize had originally only wanted to give it a try and had only asked casually. It would be great if it was a success, but it didn't matter if it wasn't. He didn't expect Mo Ruyue to actually relent and really make a request of him.
"For Lady Qin to think of using this official's name to do something, it must be something that gives you a headache?"
Duanmu Xize tried to probe.
He remembered that when he was investigating Mo Ruyue's background, he had found out that the county magistrate seemed to have some unclear intentions towards her, especially since that person's wife had also been saved by Mo Ruyue. In the blink of an eye, the couple had joined forces to sue Mo Ruyue. This wave of operation was really somewhat unexpected.
Could it be that she just wanted to intimidate that person and make him give up on those thoughts that he shouldn't have?
It had to be said that Duanmu Xize's brain was still working. However, it was impossible to get the answer from Mo Ruyue's mouth.
"Master Duanmu, I'm not trying to gain any benefits for myself. If you mind, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Mo Ruyue wouldn't let anyone read her mind. Anyway, it was just one less shortcut for her. It wasn't a big problem.
"No, no, Lady Qin, I don't mind. How about this? Since you are here to treat someone in Ping City, why don't you treat it as a benefit to the soldiers and their families? Please give everyone a checkup and basic treatment."
"When the time comes, I will reward you in the name of the government and at the same time invite you to my mansion as a guest. This should help you avoid a lot of trouble,"
After Mo Ruyue heard this, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
As expected, with Duanmu Xize's identity, it did not seem difficult to find out anything.
However, she wasn't afraid that he would play any tricks.
He had also indirectly admitted that he was the one who forged the letter and took the soldier's family away, so he should have heard about the "agreement".
"Mater Duanmu, you can arrange my time. Just as you said, I will be staying in Ping City for a while."
After Mo Ruyue finished speaking, she left the study. After saying goodbye to Qing Xi, she also left the courtyard.
She needed to move to another place to avoid exposing the identity of the real owner of this courtyard.
Very quickly, Duanmu Xize found her a relatively isolated and secluded courtyard in the city. As for the physical examination of the soldiers and their families, she could use the venue and manpower of the city's Chinese Medical Hall.
