Ruthless Sword Master Pretty Snake Demon

The gold and silver accumulated outside the government office not only did not decrease with the passage of time, but increased more and more.

Gai Yinao ordered the soldiers and the people involved in the post-disaster reconstruction to first clean up the collapsed or damaged houses of Jiangning government officials. On the pile of gold and silver outside the government office.

Regarding this, the officials of the Jiangning Mansion dared not speak out, but if they protested, they would have to face Ao Ye's personal questioning.

"Where does the extra salary come from?" Ao Ye asked casually while wiping the Shuanghua Sword that had beheaded their magistrate.

"Probably, the flood came from somewhere else." The official who was asked was trembling, and the clothes behind his back were wet with cold sweat.

"Oh." Ao Ye said, "Since it is ownerless, it will be confiscated. Do you have any objections?"

"..." What else could the official say, he could only pinch his nose and say, "It's up to His Highness to decide."

When I got back, I was asked about the situation by my colleagues, with a gloomy face, and finally squeezed out a word after a long while - he almost put a sword on my neck and asked me if I wanted money or my life!

The officials of Jiangning Mansion are in a terrible mood, but the common people are on the contrary. After daily work, even if they take a detour, they have to pass outside the government office. As long as they look in through the guards, the fatigue on their bodies will dissipate. , renewed enthusiasm.

Just like this, the situation in Jiangning Mansion is getting better and better. Of course, everything is not going well.

Li An came from the Ministry of Industry, which was not valued by the imperial court. If he was asked to control water and repair embankments, he could even make some auxiliary construction equipment by drawing blueprints, but sometimes he had no choice but to encounter other things.

"Jiangning Mansion was severely affected by the disaster and was in urgent need of food and clothing. We sent people to buy them, but they were also citizens of the Eastern Qin Dynasty, but deliberately raised the price! Sigh!" Li An was so worried that his hair was turning gray.

"I went to the local magistrate or magistrate about the matter of grain and rice seeds, and told them that if the merchants don't sell at the original price, they will be ordered by me to open their storage granary for emergency, and the Jiangning mansion will gradually make up for it afterward." Ao Ye's expression was cold, if that What is said in the book is true, and they dare not open an empty granary.

"This is a good idea! According to the law, they have not been affected by the disaster, and they have the responsibility to open warehouses to rescue the nearby disaster-stricken places!" Li An clapped his hands, and then continued to look at Ao Ye eagerly.

"The rest of the needs, if you don't lower the price..." Ao Ye lowered his eyes and thought.

"Go to the Liu family in Jiang'an Mansion for help, beat gongs and drums along the way to explain the tragedy of Jiangning Mansion to the people along the way, oh, you can also send the orphan of the dead Lord Liu along the way." She Yan pressed it with her hands. On Ao Ye's shoulder, he said with a smile.

"Can this work?" Li An asked suspiciously. Was this really a deliberate provocation?

He has been an official for many years, although he has not learned how to dance well, he is not a fool.The Liu family supported the third prince who was born of Concubine Liu Gui, and the relationship between the third prince and the crown prince was well-known in both civil and military circles.

Moreover, Liu Henian, who died at the hands of the crown prince, was far closer in blood than Liu Mingzhi from Xingzhou.

"How do you know if you don't try?" She Yan smiled and said, "Great families have always valued reputation, I don't think they would be happy to have the impression of being hard-hearted and willing to die in the eyes of the common people."

In particular, they also want to support the third prince's ascension to the throne in the future.The Liu family may be a bit cautious, but they will not completely reject the request for help from Jiangning Mansion.

"That's right, what do you think, Your Highness?" Li An looked at Ao Ye.

She Yanbai and Ao Ye have been inseparable these days, and Li An has already become familiar with it and even took it for granted.

Ao Ye looked back at She Yanbai with deep eyes, "I will follow what Yanbai said."

After Li An left, Ao Yejing sat for a long time before saying, "Yanbai..."

"I want to ask how I know so many things?" She Yanbai stretched out a finger and pointed at Ao Ye's eyebrows, her red lips curled up, and she smiled like a flower.

"Hmm." Ao Ye's gaze involuntarily chased She Yan's pale fingertips.

She Yanbai's long and narrow eyes were half closed, and her eyes were tender, "Is this something so hard to know?"

Ao Ye was dumb, and said after a while, "No."

"I want to know you, so I know it naturally." She Yanbai retracted her fingers and said softly.

A demon cultivator like him who has lived for a long time will more or less realize one or two unique secret methods.For example, how to use divine sense to pry out the secrets in others' hearts.

She Yan closed her eyes and smiled softly, but Ao Ye felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

The lobby of the government office is spacious and bright. As soon as you walk in, you will feel a sense of solemnity and solemnity.

In the middle of the lobby hangs a piece of black golden nanmu, engraved with four powerful characters - justice and honesty, and when the sun falls on it, there is a faint golden flash.

On the wall below is a huge daily sea tide map, but it is a pity that after soaking in the flood, it has become blurred.

Ao Ye stood behind the three-foot case in the hall, looking down at the case files presented, sometimes frowning and showing off his face.

Every time he finished reading, after thinking for a while, he would take a pen and write instructions at the end of the paper, and then wave to the soldiers or guards waiting outside the hall to signal them to take the paper away.

When almost everyone delivering the case files approached the case, they would subconsciously glance behind Ao Ye, look away under his captivating eyes, and then tiptoe away gently.

There was no other reason, it was all because the majestic prince was standing up to deal with official duties, while a grassroots man of unknown origin who had the grace to save his life huddled in the chair behind him and slept peacefully, covered with the prince's black cloak.

"Your Highness, please have some tea." Fu An held a cup of hot tea in both hands and walked gently on tiptoe. When his eyes fell on the chair behind Ao Ye, he couldn't help sighing.

Where is this savior?It is simply a living ancestor!In the lobby, there is a well-packed east room, so I don't want to go to sleep, but I want to compete with their highness for a chair.

Ao Ye took the tea, took a sip, looked back at She Yanbai, who was lying on the armrest and could only see half of his face in profile, and whispered to Fu An, "Pour another cup of hot tea here."

"Your Highness, why don't you order someone to bring a chair over here? It's not a problem for you to stand all the time." Fu'an said.

The little eunuch's voice was shrill, and he forgot to lower his voice as he spoke.

Ao Ye frowned, and whispered, "Shut up."

Fuan closed his mouth resentfully, and went to bring another cup of tea with his head downcast.

"Not finished yet?" She Yanbai woke up at some point, gathered the cloak around her body, and said lazily.

Ao Ye lowered his head, looked at the toe of the blue shoe that had been poking into his knee, and pursed his lips, "No."

Fu An came and went in a hurry, "Young Master She, please have some tea."

His tone was respectful, but his face was straight, so that people could tell his dissatisfaction just by looking at him.

She Yanbai smiled and refused to pick up the tea, "Aye, are you tired from standing? Otherwise, I get up and you sit down?"

"Not tired, you are not in good health, An Sheng should sit down." Ao Ye casually took the tea and put it on the table, steaming up.

The breath that She Yanbai drew from his body all went around and went back. Yu She Yanbai was healing and recovering, and Yu Aoye was strengthening the body and refreshing the spirit. It was beneficial to both of them.

Therefore, Ao Ye's answer was his own true feeling, but it was different in the ears of others, as if he was a person who had been stunned.

Feeling helpless, Fu An thought for a while and said, "Young Master She stayed here all morning, do you want to go for a walk to get some air?"

"It's very sunny outside, so I don't want to go." She Yanbai sat reclined in the chair, crossed her legs, and swayed her toes slightly.

Ao Ye moved a step to the side, her toes couldn't reach her knees, and She Yanbai raised her eyebrows.

"The servant will find you an umbrella?" Fu'an wanted to rescue Ao Ye who had been standing for a long time.

She Yanbai raised her head and smiled at the tall and tall man beside her, "Will you hold an umbrella for me?"

Ao Ye handed him the tea that had dissipated the heat from the case, and said with lowered eyes, "Okay."

Fu An was dumbfounded now, if it wasn't for Ao Ye's words and deeds as before, he even suspected that only a person who looked like the prince came back after falling into the water.

"Go get an umbrella."

Seeing Fu'an froze, Ao Ye reminded him.

"Yes, Your Highness." Fu An came back to his senses, and hurried out to find an umbrella after saluting.

She Yanbai lowered her head and took a sip of tea, then said with a smile, "You little eunuch is quite worried, maybe you think I'm bullying you every day."

"There are no simple people in the capital, so don't get too close to them." Ao Ye frowned and warned.

"What about you?" She Yanbai stood up, put the teacup on the table, and said with a smile.

Ao Ye lowered his head and sorted out the files on the public case, and said calmly, "Believable for now."

To this day, She Yanbai knew almost all the information about him, but he only knew one name of She Yanbai, and it would be unbelievable to know more.

If She Yanbai had no intention of harming him, he would be credible, otherwise... Ao Ye's eyes darkened, as he said that day, he is not kind.

"For now?" It was the first time She Yanbai heard someone say that, she couldn't help feeling curious, she tilted her head, trying to see the expression on Ao Ye's face at this moment.

Slap, a pen doesn't land very well.

Ao Ye happened to lean over to pick it up, "There is no one who stays the same in this world, and I am no exception."

She Yanbai took off the cloak on her body, threw it at Ao Ye when he got up, and said with a smile, "Okay, I will leave when you are untrustworthy."

Ao Ye grabbed the cloak and froze in place.

"Let's go, go out for a turn and come back to continue your official business."

She Yanbai stretched, turned her feet and walked outside, her long black hair dangling in the air with her swaying steps.

"That's not what I meant." Ao Ye put on a cloak and strode after She Yanbai.

"Okay, okay, you're not." She Yanbai obviously didn't take Ao Ye's words to heart.

Ao Ye paused, half a body behind She Yanbai, staring at his handsome back, and suddenly sighed softly.

When Fu An struggled to find a beautiful oil-paper umbrella and ran back to the lobby panting, Ao Ye and She Yanbai were no longer there.

"Where are your Highness and Young Master She?" Fu An asked.

"It's already gone." The soldier in charge of guarding the files in the hall said.
