A word stirred up a thousand waves.

Others don't care whether their fate is hard or not, they only think about whether the Qi family's hands are stained with blood and whether it will also affect them.

Yan Ruyu calmed down and waited to see if the governor had any other options.

At this time, the abbot sent another message: "What should I do? Do you want to say a few words for Mrs. Qi?"

"No, now is not the time. If you say anything, you will be exposed. Wait for the critical moment to strike with a decisive blow!"

"Okay, okay!" The abbot exited again, the initial fear in his heart receded, and now he was still a little excited.

Mrs. Qi sneered, took a step forward and went down the steps: "Master Governor, you lost your child, I can understand your pain, but if you blame my son's death on my Qi family, I can't afford it." ! I haven’t even met your son twice, how can I defeat him?”

At this moment, there was the sound of horse hooves in the distance.

It was a subordinate from the Governor's Mansion. When he got close, he got off his horse and panted: "My lord, it's not good!"

The governor hurriedly asked: "What happened?"

"Because of the shortage of food in the city, my lord, you sent your servants out to look for ways to buy food, but found that... at some point, the road to Xucheng was blocked!"

"Ah!" There was an uproar.

"What? Who blocked this...?"

"Sir, it doesn't look like it was man-made. One place was a huge rock falling from the sky, and the other was a big tree that was broken in half!"

"It's God's will!" Someone in the crowd shouted, "Is God's will to destroy me, Xu City?"

"This is a divine punishment! Someone has provoked the wrath of God!"

"We are innocent, we have done nothing!"

Yan Ruyu's eyes were slightly cold, and she glanced at the people shouting nearby. They didn't look like ordinary people.

She flicked her fingers, and a few pills landed on them.

The governor turned around and stared at Mrs. Qi: "Mrs. Qi, what else do you have to say?"

Mrs. Qi was confused: "What do the governor mean by this? You don't mean to say that the broken roads, huge rocks, and broken trees are all because of my Qi family, right?"

Mrs. Qi gave a short laugh: "I never thought that in the eyes of the Governor, our Qi Mansion would have such great energy and lead to such consequences!"

The governor rolled his sleeves: "Don't be weird! The facts are all there, how can you deny it?"

"What if there is no shortage of food in the city? It doesn't have much to do with us whether the roads are blocked or not, right?" Yan Ruyu glanced at the silver ingots that had slipped in, and the silver ingots pinched her throat and said, "The roads are blocked, the governor will send someone to Isn’t it over with dredging?”

The governor glanced here: "The question is, who can guarantee that there will be no shortage of food!?"

"Didn't the shopkeeper of the Qian family say that? He has plenty of them!" Quandao also shouted.

The shopkeeper of the Qian family immediately expressed his position: "Yes, I said it, and it is the truth!"

The governor is so angry, where are the troublemakers coming from?

"Since you said the Qian family has it, I would like to take a look, is it okay? Unless seeing is believing, I won't believe it!"

The governor said to the people: "It's not because I am narrow-minded, but because it concerns the people's livelihood and I have to be cautious!"

The people talked in low voices and nodded repeatedly, praising him for his hard work.

Yin Ding walked to Yan Ruyu with small steps, gritted his teeth and said: "Princess, this guy is so hateful, how should we treat him?"

"Don't worry, let him do it, and do it until you die." Yan Ruyu glanced at her, "Where's Beibei?"

Yin Ding touched his nose and squeaked.

"What happened?"

"Go back to the princess, Beibei... was injured."

"what?"

Yin Ding quickly told Beibei's story vividly, and anger welled up in Yan Ruyu's eyes.

"Take good care of him," Yan Ruyu took two red fruits, "Give him this, use some good medicine, and don't leave any problems."

"Yes, my subordinates know."

Yin Ding put the things away, but the governor over there had already started speaking again.

"How about I ask you to go take a look at the granary of your shop?"

"This..." The shopkeeper of the Qian family hesitated.

He was following his boss's instructions, but there was no real food in the granary.

If you have to go see it, what should you do?

The governor sneered: "What? Are you telling lies and deliberately deceiving me?"

Someone outside the crowd said loudly: "Of course not!"

Qiu Shangwei came slowly and said, "Sir, Qian Qiu, a folk girl, is the owner of the rice shop. You can take your Excellency to see her."

Of course the governor knew about Qiu, and he also knew that he should not be offended easily.

"Okay, then I'll ask you, madam, to lead the way."

Yan Ruyu said to Yin Ding: "You watch here and don't let others live in chaos. If someone lives in chaos..."

She pointed at the people who had been pilled just now, took a packet of fragrant powder and gave the silver ingots: "Just find a way to sprinkle this on them, and they will attract other people's attention."

Yin Ding's eyes brightened slightly: "Yes. What about you?"

"I'll also go to Qian's shop."

After Yan Ruyu finished speaking, she went to Pujiamipu alone. She had planned the route in advance, and she was alone, so she was much faster than the governor and others.

Quickly go to the warehouse, sneak in, take out the grain that you got from Yiwang Zhuangzi, and stack it neatly.

Just as she was turning around to leave, the people outside had already arrived at the door, so she ducked and hid behind the grain bag.

Qiu Shangwei didn't know for sure whether there was food in the storehouse, but she knew Yan Ruyu's words were true, and she somehow felt that Yan Ruyu's words were credible.

I just want to believe her - even if it seems incredible.

A thin layer of sweat broke out on the shopkeeper's forehead. He had never met Yan Ruyu, but he just trusted the boss and had no confidence in the miracle happening.

The governor watched with cold eyes, feeling more and more that the Qian family was bluffing.

"Mrs. Qian, this matter has nothing to do with the Qian family. It is the Qi family's responsibility. There is no need for the Qian family to get involved. If we say no now, it will be too late."

The governor spoke earnestly and thoughtfully: "There are not too many common people now, so I can all make the decision.

It is not easy for the Qiu family to accumulate a reputation. I also admire the character of the old family master Qiu and would like to have the opportunity to visit him in the future. Madam Qian, please think twice! "

Yan Ruyu heard this clearly and sneered silently. This Governor Cheng really knows how to manipulate people's hearts, much better than Wen Qingzhuo.

Qiu Shangwei took a deep breath: "What the governor said is wrong. My grandfather often taught us that as children of aristocratic families, we should pay attention to the overall situation no matter where we are. Now that Xu City is in trouble, how can I ignore it? How can you say it has nothing to do with the Qian family?

If the adults come to visit me in the future and talk about this, my grandfather will definitely write a letter to scold me! "

"Someone, open the barn door!"

The governor was secretly angry and scolded Qiu Shangwei for not knowing what was good or bad.

I thought, well, if you don’t want to give me the chance, then open your eyes and see. When the time comes, I will hold this handle in my hands, and the Qiu family will have to obey him!

"In that case, let's open it, Mrs. Qian. I also hope that the warehouse will be full, and then the whole city will..."

Before he finished speaking, the barn door opened.
