Jiang Yubai took Wu Xiaoliu and Zhu An to the county government office in Qi County.They planned to report to the officials first, and if they failed, they would post a famous post to the Governor's Mansion—here I have to mention the convenience of Xiao Rui's identity.Although his brother's official position is small, he is the powerful faction in the military camp, and Prince Huai stands behind him; First, even if they write a bunch of rubbish in their notebooks, the emperor must give a two or three-word reply.

Therefore, in terms of channels, Xiao Rui has access to both civil and military aspects.

In other words, it was far easier than ordinary people for him to invite ginseng, the governor who had canceled his report to Beijing due to the flood this year.In order to keep Wu Shamao, the governor could not ignore him blatantly.

Of course, Jiang Yubai used it as a way out.Of course he hoped that the county magistrate of Qi County could do something about it. He didn't have enough manpower to capture those men in Tsing Yi, so he pulled out the mountain bomber that was famous for blowing up stones and embankments from the warehouse in the past, and blasted it one or two times on the top of the mountain. Those guys hid out of the mountain.

Zhu An didn't know what a cruel strategy Jiang Yubai had in mind, he was still immersed in the excitement of cheating his idol's corpse and walking side by side with his idol.

In order not to delay the journey, Jiang Yubai rode Xiaobai who was tied to the foot of the mountain, and bought another horse for Zhu An.The three hurried, and when they arrived at Qixian County, they found that the houses on the lower ground had been flooded, and there were broken beams, columns and broken tiles in the rolling waves. There are grass sheds, and there are obviously county residents waiting for the flood to recede.

It was only then that Jiang Yubai discovered that the disaster situation in Qi County was worse than he had imagined—not to mention that he was struggling to manage the affairs of the group of people in Tsing Yi, even the warehouse where the Hushan Cannon was stored was flooded.When the cannon was fished out of such water, it was probably dumbfounded.

Chaos also has the benefits of chaos, at least the flow of people is too frequent, the checkpoints beside the fence are no longer in effect, and people no longer need to show directions when they come and go, so Wu Xiaoliu can go home as soon as possible.

He was taken captive before the flood.I don't know if my parents and five older sisters survived.

Jiang Yubai asked Zhu An to just take Wu Xiaoliu to the mountain to inquire about the news, and if the situation changed, he mixed into the refugee pile, and asked him for his straw hat by the way.

"Here! You can use it!" Zhu An was a little reluctant, but still handed the straw hat to Jiang Yubai, "But what do you want this for?"

Jiang Yubai glanced at him slightly.

Zhu An suddenly realized: Indeed, Jiang Yubai's appearance is too conspicuous among the unkempt refugees.The county magistrate saw that he was not only more well-dressed than himself, but also much neater than himself, what if he refused to listen to him?

Jiang Yubai, on the other hand, completely ignored Zhu An's complicated psychological activities.His only need for the straw hat is to cover his face, so as to block the sight of himself from all directions——

This is really uncomfortable for a swordsman.

The three of them packed up and went separately.

It was easier than he imagined to find the county magistrate of Qi County - he was a fat middle-aged man, wearing an official uniform, but not wearing his own black gauze hat, and he was at the highest mountain with several people from the yamen. Wearing a small horse tie, "looking at the ocean and sighing", melancholy is almost overflowing from the wrinkles.

Jiang Yubai went to the county magistrate without any effort and explained his purpose.

"Looking at your attitude, I'm afraid you're not an ordinary person, so I'll tell you the truth." The county magistrate said, "I really can't spare to take care of these things—you've seen it all, and now Qi County has to work hard to take care of everything. , where can we allocate manpower to wipe out a group of...human traffickers that no one has seen before?"

The county magistrate didn't seem to know what to use to describe the group of people in Tsing Yi. He licked his chapped lips, smashed the jar and said, "The relief from above hasn't come out these few days. The big guys didn't eat their last meal. Don't It is not surprising that children are kidnapped and sold in a few days. In order to be worthy of my official uniform, I really have no extra energy to spend."

"I still want to ask you for advice." Jiang Yubai clenched his teeth tightly, "Before the flood came, those people disappeared inexplicably, did you know or didn't you know?"

"...Is it important to say this now?" The county magistrate avoided Jiang Yubai's eyes, "Anyway, the files of the entire government office have been flooded."

"Dossiers involving human life always have to be copied in two copies, one is submitted to the central government, and the other is deposited in the state capital." Jiang Yubai said, "Even if the central government has not had time to send it out, the governor's office has never been accepted. It was flooded."

The county magistrate was a little annoyed: "Now that you can't take care of the affairs of the living, why keep pestering the affairs of the dead?"

Jiang Yubai: "How do you know those people are dead?"

The county magistrate was dumbfounded and stared like an angry quail.After a while, he said earnestly: "I advise you to leave this matter alone. Even if you are from the capital, the sky is high and the emperor is far away... how far can you protect yourself?"

This can be said to be a warning or a threat.

"The sky is high and the emperor is far away..." Jiang Yubai repeated this sentence, and suddenly laughed.Wu Jiu unsheathed, and the cold sword light rested on the magistrate's neck, making him feel cold all over in an instant.

"Believe it or not, I can call the 'emperor' over for you."

Jiang Yubai did not hesitate to pull his apprentice into the scope of the summoning.He is the emperor's uncle, a close minister of the emperor, and has great power.These local snakes thought that the dragon would not appear in this small place, but Jiang Yubai could always find a way to borrow the power of the "dragon".

He took out a jade ring from his pocket, with the emblem of the palace engraved on it.Although Zhou Yan downplayed the thing when he gave it to him, Duan Meng told him the importance of this thing in private—if anyone who sees the prince comes in person, he might be able to take it to the Northwest Military Camp in the Northwest. Soldiers will be dispatched.

Jiang Yubai didn't know if Zhou Yan had power in this remote Qingzhou, but Piaomiao Mountain was here, and he believed that Zhou Yan would take care of Qingzhou's affairs.

"Tell me, how much do you really know about those people in Tsing Yi?" Jiang Yubai said slowly under the silent gaze of the other party. Every time he said a word, the man trembled. The time is also "prestige", "You have two choices. One is to listen to me, and the other is to put you in prison, gather your people, and interrogate them one by one slowly. I think they will live without pockets."

Yes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away.But it is not difficult for the emperor to crush such a sesame official to death in the air. It is enough for him to drink a pot by issuing a document to abolish his official.

The county magistrate turned pale, but still refused to tell the truth.

Jiang Yubai was blessed to the heart, forced him to the hillside with a sword, and said to him facing the vast river: "Ah, I forgot, there is a third option - directly throwing you into the river to feed the fish."

The county magistrate's legs gave way...and collapsed.

......

Zhou Yan stayed in the governor's mansion for three days.

That day when he pressed Governor Zhao about the man in Tsing Yi, he didn't expect him to bite him to death but he wouldn't let go, even if he took off his black hat on the spot, he would be unyielding——

Zhou Yan gestured to Duanmeng indifferently, and the dispatched people took him to prison, shut him up in the dark for three days without eating or drinking, and then talked back and forth, so he took over the governor's mansion logically.

He checked the details of the transactions in the governor's mansion, only to find that the relief money and food seemed to have been sent out one by one.It's just that the route chosen is not right, it is too close to the mountain-it is not easy to be submerged if you walk along the mountain, but you need to detour.

Look at the three officials sent by the little emperor Zhou Mian before.The Governor's Mansion has their greeting cards, which means that they have all come to meet Mr. Zhao.But after seeing them, according to the investigation, they went in the same direction like moths to a flame——

Zhou Yan drew their route on the map, and finally found a suspicious intersection on the map: Qishan.

If the group of "Helong God Envoys" were related to these incidents, then some clues could definitely be found in Qishan.

It was night now, and the sound of the rain outside the window also became quieter.Zhou Yan unfolded the letter from the little emperor from the capital, only to find that the little emperor danced more joyfully without the emperor's uncle by his side.

"I have already asked the grand master for help. The grand master is well-informed and knowledgeable. Those people have no foundation in Qingzhou, but their development is like a spark of fire. They must have operated in the past."

"Also: The Ministry of Rites has already planned my wedding date with Xiangxiang, which will be on the second day of June. Uncle Emperor, when will you get married? I can also engrave your concubine on the jade certificate, so as not to be blamed by the ancestors when they comfort them."

Zhou Yan thought to himself, you little bastard, are you still afraid of your ancestors blaming you?If your ancestors knew how you came to be the throne, they would crawl out of their graves angrily and curse at others.

However, the engraving of the jade certificate still gave Zhou Yan a little bit of charming reverie: Would Master be willing to enter my family's genealogy?

Although Jiang Yubai doesn't necessarily care about entering the old Zhou family's ancestral grave after a hundred years, but Jiang Yubai is an orphan with no relatives. He died once last time, so the rascal Chun can only set up a lonely grave for him on Piaomiao Mountain. It is said that Chun Rogue felt desolate after watching it.

...why think so much.

Zhou Yan came back to his senses and was no longer distracted.It happened that Duanmeng knocked on the door and came in - he ordered Duanmeng to go to Piaomiao Mountain with his whip, and brought Chun Rogue with him, just to see if Jiang Yubai was still there.

When Chun Rogue came down the mountain, his face was very pale, angry and angry.Duan Meng is also hesitant at this moment, wondering whether he should tell Zhou Yan everything.

Zhou Yan: "What's wrong?"

Duan Meng: "My lord, the young master did appear in Piao Miao Mountain. But he only stayed for one night, and then took his horse and left. Dr. Chun went up the mountain, and he said..."

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, it was rare to see Duan hesitating.

Duanmeng took a deep breath, and finally continued: "...He said that Mr. Jiang's tomb was dug up."

Zhou Yan's face instantly became extremely ugly.

"What did you say?"

"It is said that the tomb was dug up and the coffin was opened... There was nothing left inside."

Zhou Yan's heart trembled, and his blood was washed away.Duan Meng hurriedly comforted him: "My lord! Take care of yourself!"

Zhou Yan waved him back, but his heart was in a mess.

Did Master see it all?

Saw my own tomb... and saw that my tomb was empty?

He had a more terrible reverie.It is impossible for Jiang Yubai to take away his body, so he found something and suspected that his body was gone, so he personally——

For a moment, Zhou Yan's whole body was violently internally.

He obviously guessed who could do this... But he was several times more angry than Jiang Yubai himself, wishing to drag that person out to death.

"Dang Bang", there was a soft sound outside the window.

Zhou Yan opened the window with a cold face...but suddenly met a pair of bluish-white, dead pupils.
