Chapter 130: Disaster Relief Food Robbed
In the evening, Qin Mowei walked in with two prescriptions while Jiang Yuan was having dinner.
As soon as he entered the room and saw the dishes on the table, Qin Mowei said with a smile, "The dishes are good. The aunties prepared something special for you."
Putting down his chopsticks, he hummed, "Yeah, it's because I'm so likable."
"This is for you. It replenishes your blood and qi. It's all good stuff." Qin Mowei put the medicine on the table. Jiang Yuan took a look and said, "Thank you very much."
Jiang Yuan continued to eat, and Qin Mowei sat beside him with a smile on his face, showing no intention of leaving.
"Prince, would you like to eat together?" Jiang Yuan asked tentatively.
Qin Mowei waved his hand, "No, I don't need it."
After a moment of silence, Qin Mowei coughed lightly, "You, don't you want to ask me how I got out of this predicament?"
Jiang Yuan, who was concentrating on eating, glanced at Qin Mowei with his eyes slanted, then sneered.
Qin Mo pursed his lips for Ran, "Okay, it would be really embarrassing if I can't get out of this predicament."
Jiang Yuan agreed, closed his eyes, held the pig liver in his mouth, and nodded.
"Let Auntie fry it for you. I'm going back now."
With something in his mouth, Jiang Yuan mumbled two words, "No."
Qin Mo had no choice but to leave with his hands behind his back.
When the aunt came to clean up the dishes, she saw the medicine on the table and asked, "Girl, shall I boil some for you to drink?"
Jiang Yuan shook his head like a rattle, "No, no, I don't want to drink the bitter medicine soup."
"Take the medicine and you'll get better soon."
"No."
"Be obedient, I'll fry it for you right away. Auntie will give you some fried plums to eat."
The aunt went to boil medicine for Jiang Yuan without saying a word. Finally, she took a small plate of boiled plums and a bowl of medicine and coaxed Jiang Yuan to drink the medicine. The boiled plums tasted pretty good.
The general and Xie Yunxiao took their men away and returned three days later. They came back with great fanfare. News had already been passed back to the city that the rebels' lair had been destroyed.
So when they came back, the city was already bustling with people guarding the city gates and cheering.
Jiang Yuan and Qin Mowei were on the city wall, watching the mighty army coming, followed by a number of tied-up rebels.
The general, Xie Yunxiao, and the soldiers all looked a little dishevelled, and some were injured, but they all had smug smiles on their faces.
As soon as he entered the city, he was surrounded by the people. After standing on the city gate and watching for a while, Qin Mowei said, "Go back. I'm afraid you can't squeeze in."
"Ah."
The two of them went back through the small path.
After a while, the general's hearty laughter and scattered footsteps were heard outside the yard.
"Hey, girl Jiang, are you feeling better?" As soon as the general entered the room and saw Jiang Yuan, his eyes lit up.
When the general heard that she was not feeling well before setting out, he was a little worried, but as there were important matters at hand, he did not have time to check on her.
"It's okay, General. Thank you for your concern. It's just a cold."
"That's good, that's good, hahahaha, now I can go back to the capital to report." The general was very happy. He walked to the main seat, picked up the tea bowl, and gulped down the bowl of tea.
Xie Yunxiao was also very happy. Looking at his clothes that were torn by the sword, Jiang Yuan looked at him and asked, "Are you hurt?"
"It's okay, they are just superficial injuries and have been treated." After saying this to Jiang Yuan, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her complexion almost recovered.
"General, don't be happy. The mastermind of the rebellion has not been caught. I think your analysis is correct. Maybe it's not the Great Hermit, but a foreign spy."
When this was mentioned, the general's grinning mouth narrowed and his brows furrowed tightly. "Yes, they escaped, but we still caught a few useful ones and interrogated them thoroughly."
Jiang Yuan thought of the town's official, "Fourth brother, the county magistrate who surrendered?"
"He was caught. What surrender? That was treason. The general tried him on the spot. After two lashes, he confessed everything."
After listening to their brief talk, the general remembered and pointed at Jiang Yuan and praised, "Jiang girl, your fragrance is still the best.
In the final analysis, the credit goes to you. When we charged in, there was no vigilance at all. They never thought until their death that tens of thousands of troops could break through the miasma and charge in.
They were killed directly and were caught off guard. The mastermind was so cunning that he even prepared a secret retreat passage for himself in the valley surrounded by miasma.
Although it was not a bloodless victory, it was still a great victory with the least casualties.
I will write a letter right now and send it back to Beijing at an expedited speed of eight hundred miles.”
The general acted efficiently and walked outside as he spoke.
"How many ran away?" Qin Mowei asked Xie Yunxiao who was sitting next to him.
“Seven of them, all the main characters. Half of the people we caught are Mexicans. They don’t admit it, but from their behavior we can infer that they are Mexican soldiers, or at least from the military.
The seven people who escaped included both Chinese and Mexicans. "
Qin Mowei nodded, looked outside the door, and slowly said, "It looks like there will be some trouble in the east as well."
Xie Yunxiao specifically asked Jiang Yuan how to deal with those traitors. Jiang Yuan had hatred in his heart, but in the end he only said one sentence, "Follow the rules."
There is no end for these traitors, and there is no need for Jiang Yuan to take action. The masterminds who escaped are the real culprits, but don't worry, they will show up.
After receiving the urgent report from the general who traveled eight hundred miles, the emperor made arrangements immediately.
Jiang Yuan had been taking care of the things behind the scenes these days and had some free time. When he was about to go back to Huaiping to find Jiang Huai, Qin Mowei hurried into the main hall holding a letter.
Jiang Yuan had just finished talking to the general about her plan to look for Jiang Huai. Xie Yunxiao was a little hesitant. He wanted to go with Jiang Yuan, but he didn't know if the general could handle the rest of the work here alone.
Before the general could express his opinion, Qin Mowei rushed in.
"The relief grain allocated by the imperial court was robbed."
"What?" Jiang Yuanteng stood up from the stool.
"When we were almost there, we were robbed. I thought..." Before Qin Mowei could finish his words, Jiang Yuan had already rushed out of the house.
I know that things won't go smoothly for Jiang Huai. If they use the disaster relief money and food from the court smoothly and complete this task, I'm afraid there will be countless people who will suffer.
She had heard Yuan Mingyi mention that the money and grain budgeted this time was similar to the disaster relief funds that the court needed to allocate after disasters in previous years. The advance resettlement was more than after the disaster, but it was also within a reasonable range.
But if they do their job smoothly and don't spend too much money and food, then those who were responsible for disaster relief in previous years will probably have sleepless nights.
In previous years, the money and grain allocated by the imperial court for disaster relief were always not enough, which caused unrest among the people, and the troops had to be sent to suppress it. Everyone knew why it was not enough.
Without concrete evidence, there can be no thorough investigation. This incident will become a trigger that will definitely not allow Jiang Huai and his team to have smooth sailing.
Jiang Yuan couldn't stay there and wanted to go back because she was worried. She was afraid that even if she was well settled in advance, she would not be able to prevent trouble from being caused by people with ulterior motives.
Before we even had time to set off, there was indeed trouble over there.
