The construction site of the county government in Yunshan County is much more luxurious than what Junlu and Jiang Yuan imagined. There are obvious traces of renovation in many places. It is obvious that it was damaged by the earthquake a few days ago. It is urgent to call people Patched up, the wood color doesn't look very uniform.

"I said why the houses on the street are crumbling and no one has repaired them. I dare to say that they are used for repairing here, but are the houses in the Yamen so weak? I think at least half of the places have been renovated. Is it an exaggeration? ?” Jiang Yuan recalled that the rice shop where they stopped temporarily was not as repaired as the county government office, and it was still standing there firmly, and people could live there again after a little rest. The county government office was so damaged that it needed such a large-scale construction. The more Jiang Yuan thought about the renovation, the more he felt something was wrong.

Jun Lu looked around, and said in a low voice: "No exaggeration, you see how heavily guarded this place is, they must be pursuing perfection, and have repaired the slightly damaged places, otherwise, if there is a fight, wouldn't the rear appear to be a mess?" Very unsafe?"

Although the sarcasm in Jun Lu's tone was so obvious that it couldn't be more obvious, Jiang Yuan couldn't help complaining: "It's a small seventh-rank yamen, what do you do with such strict guards, it's almost catching up with my house, there must be ghosts inside , let's go in and have a look."

"Hmm." Jun Lu nodded in agreement, completely agreeing with Jiang Yuan's statement.

Although the guards are strict, to Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan who dare to treat no one in the palace, the small county government of Yunshan County is nothing. They dare to break in with their eyes closed, and they are still sure. Get out of the body, otherwise Jun Lan would not dare to let them act alone.

Quietly groping into the backyard, Jun Lu pointed to the brightest courtyard and said, "Let's go there first."

The room is very lively, there are not low voices, and melodious and melodious music, as if a banquet is being held.

"We didn't go to the wrong place, did we?" Jiang Yuan turned his head to look at Jun Lu, his tone full of deep self-doubt.

Jun Lu hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "It's not us who are wrong, it's those people inside."

What time is this, people outside are so hungry that they serve food when they see it, they don’t care about etiquette and morality, and the place is still brightly lit, singing and dancing, it’s really outrageous.Jun Lu used great self-control to control his urge to rush in and kill people.

The two looked at each other for a moment, neither of them said anything, and then quietly walked towards the window.

No one inside noticed that there were two more people outside the window. They hugged the beauty in one hand, and held the wine in the other, drinking happily and chatting happily.

"Brother Liu, it's still a clever move of yours. Anyway, there is not enough food left. It's better to starve a group of people to death first, and then release the food at that time. When the people's support and official voice are gained, the matter will be resolved. That stupid boy Zhang Cen , does he think he is very brave, no one's food storage is enough, he has released the food now, those people will have nothing to eat in the future, and they will have to swallow him alive. Wait for the court to release the food, hehe..." His face was pale The middle-aged man without a need sneered slightly, and snorted softly: "In the eyes of the court, Yizhou's food is inexhaustible, how can it be possible to release food?"

"If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will be at a disadvantage. Boy Zhang wants to be a hero, so let him go. He will regret it sooner or later." The person who spoke was a gray-haired old man, about 50 years old, and he was very thin. , and the eyes are very hazy, making people look gloomy.

Jun Lu couldn't help clenching his fists when he heard this. Sure enough, there was no food in Yizhou, but...

This still doesn't explain where all the food in Yizhou has gone.You must know that Yizhou has had fertile soil and pleasant climate since ancient times, and the grain production over the years has also been placed there.

Junlu has considered the possibility of grain being embezzled by others, but Yizhou's external transportation is too underdeveloped, and the transportation cost is far greater than the grain itself. This is also the main reason why the imperial court basically does not collect grain from Yizhou. Thanks to more, it might as well be stored in place.

But he still hasn't figured out how to use so much stored food, so that he can't get it out at all when the catastrophe comes.

Jiang Yuan's complexion is not much better than Jun Lu's. Not to mention that Yizhou itself should have food storage, but it doesn't. As a parent and official, these people should actively seek solutions to reassure the people. These two are good. Just let it go, everything depends on God's will.

"However, Brother Liu, I heard that the imperial court sent King Zhaoyang to rescue the disaster. Will he..." Speaking of Junlan who had already arrived in Yizhou, the middle-aged man showed a little fear, even though in his capacity, It should be impossible to see Jun Lan directly.

The old man surnamed Liu waved his hand, interrupted what the middle-aged man hadn't finished, and said in a very firm tone: "It doesn't matter what kind of king he is, as long as he reaches the border of Yizhou, he will always follow the Romans. Xiao Li, let's continue Drink, the sky is falling and there are tall people holding it up."

The middle-aged man thought for a while, and seemed to think that the old man's words were very reasonable, so he nodded and said: "It's not a day's cold to freeze three feet, and the current situation in Yizhou was not formed in three to five years. It's not something King Zhaoyang can afford..."

what? !

Isn't today's situation formed in three or five years? !

Even Jun Lan may not be able to afford it? !

Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan looked at each other, and they both saw the deep-rooted fear in each other's eyes.

If the two seventh-rank Zhima officials hadn't talked nonsense and exaggerated, and hadn't underestimated Junlan's energy and weight in front of the emperor, then the situation in Yizhou would really be worse than their worst expectations.

It's not even a secret in official circles that Yizhou has no food for a long time. This situation has been happening for a long time.If there hadn't been this sudden earthquake, this matter would have been concealed for a long time, and the whereabouts of those grains may have involved some people in the palace.

Officials in Yizhou guarded against themselves and stole. They were digging into the corner of Emperor God Blessing. If Junlan really wanted to investigate, he was not afraid that no one would support him.

But if the princes in the palace were involved in this matter, the complexity would be doubled and doubled.The emperor was a suspicious and protective person. Regarding the matters of the princes, the civil and military positions of the Manchu Dynasty were very difficult, and the slightest should not be serious. A little carelessness would touch the emperor's bad luck.

The princes have done something wrong, you are wrong to point it out, because it offends the majesty of the heavenly family; it is still wrong to pretend not to see it, the emperor said that you did not fulfill your duties.In short, it is the ministers who are wrong. The emperor's son can't be wrong. If he is wrong, he is taught by the emperor behind his back, and no one else can tolerate it.

What happened in Yizhou can no longer be described as wrong. If it is really involved with the princes, Junlan's situation will become very delicate.

He told the emperor the truth, not to mention whether the emperor believed it or not, and he would not thank him for sure. Any father would be happy that his son was playing tricks on him behind his back.But if Junlan didn't say anything, and the emperor found out about it later, it would be a death penalty, that is the crime of deceiving the emperor.

No wonder County Magistrate Liu and County Magistrate Li agreed that King Zhaoyang nine out of ten would join forces with Yizhou Inspector Wang Anyuan.Such a situation is really too difficult, but anyone who has a less firm stand will definitely choose the latter between dying immediately and dying later.

It's just that these two don't understand Jun Lan's character, but Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan know it well, it's impossible for him not to report it.

Perhaps it was a little bit up, and the two of them chatted and talked about dirty jokes, and never mentioned anything about food and imperial envoys.

That's all for Jun Lv, he had married his own son in his previous life, no matter how exaggerated what he said in it, he would just listen to it.On the contrary, it was Jiang Yuan next to him, who was blushing when he heard it, and what were the two chattering, talking so blatantly, he almost couldn't listen anymore.

After a long time, Jiang Yuan couldn't bear it anymore, he lightly touched Jun Lu with his arm, and said in a hoarse voice, "How about we take them down?"

Jun Lu nodded silently, and then the two of them rushed in with a few guards with strong martial arts skills.

Due to the disparity in the strength of the two sides, Jun Lu and the others managed to control everyone present without much effort.

"Who are you?" The middle-aged man surnamed Li asked with a trembling voice.

He obviously set up defenses outside, and there was more than one line of defense. Why did these people come in quietly? Who are they?

The old man surnamed Liu obviously calmed down a lot. He had already guessed that Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan were not ordinary people.

"Shut up! Without my order, none of you are allowed to speak!" Jiang Yuan glanced over coldly, the middle-aged man dared not speak.

Jiang Yuan nodded in satisfaction, and asked again: "Tell me, where is all the food in Yizhou?"

The middle-aged man raised his head and looked at Jiang Yuan in a daze, his lips twitched for a long while, but he didn't say a word.

"If you don't want to drink a toast, you're going to force me to use ruthless tricks, aren't you?" Jiang Yuan's eyes became colder.

Jun Lu hadn't spoken since he entered the room, and he smelled the smell of wine in the room that he hadn't seen for many years.

Seeing that Jun Lu's gaze was always on the jug on the low table, the old man surnamed Liu said slowly, "Master, would you like to have a drink?"

Jun Lu hesitated for a moment, then he picked up the jug and poured a few sips into his mouth. Jiang Yuan was baffled by his behavior.

Is this wine tasting time?Did he miss the point?

No, Jun Lu didn't drink before, at least every time they had dinner together, he never saw him drink.

Although he was puzzled in his heart, Jiang Yuan still had some understanding of Jun Lv's temperament. He knew that although he was young, he was not a willful person. Maybe he had his own purpose in doing this, and he would ask about it when he had the opportunity He's just fine.

In fact, Jun Lu is not an alcohol addict, he just feels that the smell of this wine is very familiar.

Sure enough, after tasting it, Junlu confirmed his conjecture that this is the "fine nectar" that was once popular all over the world.

To be precise, this is the predecessor of "fine wine", and the real "good wine" is improved on the basis of it.People who have not experienced that era may not have imagined what kind of sensation this unknown wine will cause in the future.

"Have you used all the food to make wine?" Jun Lu would never have imagined that these people would be so bold if they hadn't foreseen the situation.

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked, Jiang Yuan was surprised by his rich imagination, others were surprised by his terrifying judgment.

How did he guess it all? Jun Lu just drank a few sips of wine, but seeing the pale faces of the two county magistrates, Jiang Yuan knew he had guessed right, and he couldn't help but gasped.

He had been thinking before, where did all the food go, there would be more than enough to eat, and it was unrealistic to sell it secretly. Yizhou people themselves did not lack food, and if they sold it to Nanyue or Zhu Xia, the journey would be long and rough. Whether it can be paid back is another question.

Now that Jun Lu talked about wine making, Jiang Yuan suddenly realized that this is a bottomless pit of food consumption.

"You guys make it clear, what's going on?" The general direction is already in place, and Jiang Yuan is not afraid that they will lie.

"I say what I say, and I promise to know everything without saying anything." The middle-aged man's psychological defense completely collapsed.
