Shadow guard, he carried my cub

Shanzhu Bo hesitated in his heart, "How do you know about Chengnan? Why are you asking this again?"

I don't know who the other party is, so Shan Zhubo dares to say too much, because he is afraid that the other party is some kind of criminal.

Qi Yunxiao knew what Shanzhu Bo was worried about, and took the initiative to say: "Shanzhu Bo, don't worry, my master and servant are not bad people, and I came here tonight to help the people of Yuzhou. I also know that Xu Ce Xu is full of people. I have embezzled the imperial court’s disaster relief money in my own pocket, is what I said wrong?”

Shan Zhu Bo startled and looked at Qi Yunxiao carefully again and again. Seeing that the other party is extraordinary, with his own nobility, could it be that he is also a member of the imperial court?If it weren't for the people of the imperial court, how could they care about the disaster victims in Yuzhou.

Thinking of this, Boss softened his attitude and said to Qi Yunxiao: "May I ask if you can send someone from the imperial court?"

Qi Yunxiao smiled: "That's right."

Qi Yunxiao rolled his eyes in his heart and thought that he was not lying. He and His Majesty are friends, and he must be regarded as a member of the imperial court.

Shan Zhu Bo immediately seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and his attitude changed 180 degrees, and he graciously gave Qi Yunxiao a seat: "My lord, please sit down, and let the official report to you slowly."

Qi Yunxiao sat down with peace of mind, and Shan Zhu Bo slowly told the situation of Yuzhou.

Three months ago, the city of Yuzhou had been raining heavily, and soon the rainwater gathered into rivers, flooding the farmers and houses. Originally, only the poor people living in low-lying areas were destroyed by the rainwater. To help the people, the heavy rain continued and more and more people suffered. It was not until the people who escaped from death gathered a group of people braved the heavy rain to make trouble at the gate of the government office that Xu Ce realized the seriousness of the matter.

In order to prevent public anger, Xu Ce pretended to ask the government servants to block the river with sandbags. At the same time, he also reported the flood in Yuzhou to the imperial court. The imperial court also sent relief money and supplies immediately, but Xu Ce saw that money was greedy. The money for disaster relief is only some dispensable clothes and quilts distributed to the victims, and the daily food for the victims is also a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun.

Compared with the indifference of the government at the beginning, now it is not bad to have clothes, quilts, and porridge to drink. The victims have no doubts and have not made trouble anymore, but Xu Ce is not greedy enough to swallow elephants, and uses Yuzhou again Flood victims asked the imperial court for relief supplies, and in the end, only quilts, clothes, and porridge and steamed buns were sent to the victims, but this only solved the symptoms, not the root cause. Taking care of these victims, what will happen to these victims if the government withdraws its hands and doesn't care about them?

It's a pity that the single master Bo, who is weak and powerful, dare not offend Xu Ce, so he can only pretend to obey him. At the same time, the single master Bo also tried his best to let the court know that the disaster situation in Yuzhou has not improved at all. In their hands, the adults know that the flood in Yuzhou will be reported to the imperial court. The imperial court has sent so many relief supplies and the disaster situation in Yuzhou has not improved. This will inevitably arouse suspicion. Save the people of Yuzhou.

However, things were just as Shanzhu Bo thought, the emperor did send an imperial envoy to Yuzhou. When Xu Ce knew that the imperial envoy was coming, he gathered most of the victims to the south of the city and locked them up, while creating the illusion that the disaster situation in Yuzhou had been brought under control. He came to trick the imperial envoy, but he didn't expect that the imperial envoy was not a good person, he was bribed by Xu Ce, and he was willing to be deceived.

Shan Zhubo was full of resentment when he said this. He thought that the people of Yuzhou would be saved when the imperial envoy came, but he didn't expect that his work was in vain.

Qi Yunxiao and Xiaoyu knew that the imperial envoy was actually pretending to be His Majesty, and they were willing to be deceived because they wanted to numb Xu Ce, so that Xu Ce could relax his vigilance and show more lies. They looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes , At the same time, I feel a little bit sorry for this Shan Zhubo, but it's a pity that they can't tell Shan Zhubo the truth yet.

"So why did you go to the south of the city?"

If Xiaoyu hadn't found out that Shan Zhubo had sneaked to the south of the city several times, Qi Yunxiao would not have suspected that there was something wrong with him, let alone overheard that Shan Zhubo was actually a good person for the country and the people tonight.

Shan Zhu Bo sighed and said: "Xu Ce locked up those victims in the south of the city because he intended to completely ignore them, but now that the imperial envoy is still in Yuzhou, Xu Ce couldn't deal with these victims, so the next official felt ashamed and brought some dry food for them. Those imprisoned disaster victims will eat."

Xiaoyu suddenly realized that he saw that the two baskets carried by Master Shan were full of dry food for the victims.

"It's just that the power of a subordinate official is limited after all. The dry food he brings cannot satisfy the victims, but at least they won't starve to death in a short period of time."

Shanzhu Bo was very worried, and Xu Ce might deal with these disaster victims as soon as the imperial envoy left.

Qi Yunxiao nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Shan Zhubo, please rest assured, the corrupt official Xu Ce will be brought to justice soon, and the victims of the disaster in Yuzhou will be rescued."

Shanzhu Bo was shocked when he heard the words, and said happily: "Really!"

"Of course it's true, Shan Zhubo just wait patiently."

Back at the inn, Qi Yunxiao wrote a letter about what Shan Zhubo said, and planned to hand it over to His Majesty tomorrow.

Although the imperial envoy was being coaxed around by Xu Ce, he still had to do what he should do. For example, if he pretended to be walking around the street, it would be regarded as inspecting the people's sentiments.

Seeing that the people in Yuzhou "re-lived" in peace and contentment, and the streets were full of people coming and going, the imperial envoy showed a satisfied smile: "Not bad, the disaster in Yuzhou that His Majesty cares about seems to have been resolved. Seeing that the people here are smiling again The official is very pleased, and His Majesty will be very pleased too."

Chi Ming followed Xu Ce and his master Qu Qiubai, and two other yamen servants walked at the end. Hearing this, Xu Ce laughed and said, "My lord said, it's all thanks to my lord."

"Since this is the case, I will return to Beijing in a few days to return to my command."

Xu Ce wanted him to leave quickly, and even the smile on his face became more serious: "Your Excellency has worked hard these days."

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a person bumped into Chi Ming. It was okay to bump into Chi Ming, but the other party stumbled.

The two yamen servants quickly drew their knives to protect the adults behind them, but Xu Ce didn't react to the sudden surprise.

"Oops, little old man's ass, it's broken!"

The one who fell to the ground was an old man in ragged clothes, with a messy beard and hair that almost covered his entire face.

After Xu Ce came to his senses, he pointed at the old man on the ground and scolded angrily, "You rascal, you don't have eyes when you walk!"

"Obviously you bumped into the little old man, why did the villain file a complaint first? I don't care, it was the little old man you bumped into first."

The old man sat on the ground like an old urchin and angrily accused Xu Ce and his party of bumping into him first.

Xu Ce has never encountered such an unreasonable troublemaker. He just wanted the yamen servant to drag the old man away. Seeing that the situation was not good, the old man immediately threw up. He sat on the ground crying and shouting, causing many passers-by to watch. Facing so many pairs of eyes, Xu Ce couldn't do anything to the old man.

When he was in trouble, Chi Ming pushed aside the yamen servant and came out: "I just didn't see clearly and accidentally bumped into the old man. Is the old man okay?"

Chi Ming walked up to the old man and stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to help the old man up. The old man glanced at Chi Ming and smiled, put his hand on Chi Ming's hand and stood up with strength: "My lord is not only very good-looking, but also has a heart. Well, they are really beautiful and kind-hearted, unlike some people who are so ugly, they are so ugly!"

The old man said he was ugly, but Xu Ce was looking at Xu Ce. Xu Ce glared at the old man angrily, but it was a pity that he could only bear it even if he was angry with the imperial envoy.

Chi Ming smiled: "As long as the old man is fine."

"Who said it's okay, the little old man's butt hurts from being dropped."

Chi Ming understood, took out a few liang of silver and put it into the old man's palm: "These silver are for the old man to see the doctor."

The old man was very happy when he got the money, and after thanking him repeatedly, he left happily.

After the old man left, Xu Ce took a step forward and walked to Chi Ming's side: "The old man is clearly trying to blackmail your lord, why did your lord give him back the money?"

Chi Ming didn't take it seriously: "I guess I had to do it when I encountered a difficult situation. Naturally, I can't stand by when I see it."

What Chi Ming said was awe-inspiring, but Xu Ce praised him with disdain in his heart, but it was all fake mercy, so he was really proud of it.

Back at the government office, Yiying greeted him as soon as he entered the door.

"Master, you are back."

Yiying has already changed the blue gauze dress. Although this dress doesn't look very serious, and the hem of the clothes is almost dragging to the sky, it is still more pleasing to the eye than the blue gauze, at least it won't be exposed everywhere .

"The master shadow guard sent a letter."

"What letter?"

"The shadow guard said it was a letter written by a genius doctor."

Yiying handed the letter to the master, and Chi Ming took the letter and opened it, and it turned out to be a letter written by Shen Qiuchen.

Chi Ming read the ten lines at a glance and put the letter away: "Qiu Chen told him about his stay in Xuanji Pavilion, and said that he had returned to the palace with Ying Jiu and Jiang Yang safely, but you are still alive and dead now because you want to give them up. , ask me to send someone to find you."

"This subordinate will write a letter of safety to the divine doctor."

"No hurry, just look at this first."

Chi Ming took out another letter from his sleeve, and the envelope was blank with no name on it.

"I bumped into an old man by accident on the street, and this letter was secretly slipped into me by that old man."

As he said that, Chi Ming tore open the envelope, and opened the letter to signal Yiying to read it with him.

The letter was written by Qi Yunxiao, and the letter was naturally written on the letter with the words Shan Zhubo said last night.

After reading Xin Chiming frowned, Yiying was already furious: "Xu Ce's death is not a pity!"

"The shadow guard went to the south of the city but found nothing unusual, and I don't know where Xu Ce locked him up."

"It's better to ask Master Shan."

Chi Min thought for a moment and suddenly smiled, "No, I want Xu Ce to take me there personally."

"What is the master going to do?"

Chi Ming sneered: "Didn't Xu Ce want me to leave quickly, so I will return to Beijing as he wishes."

A few days later, the imperial envoy set off for Beijing, and took away the male pet along with him.

Xu Ce and Qu Qiubai watched the imperial envoy's car drive away, they looked at each other and smiled in unison.
