For the first time, Qian Zuisheng didn't call Wang Ye, but called him by his first name.

Qian Zuisheng's palm had a strange temperature, and Jiang Xianjing gradually calmed down under that comfort.

Lei Wu and Qi Lu were too shocked to speak.

After taking several deep breaths in succession, both fell into the chairs.

Jiang Xian retracted the sword edge in shock, and Qian Zuisheng said to Shangguan Tao: "Go on."

"My lord and my concubine, Your Majesty has issued several instructions to let the officials support Huaigu, but last year's severe drought, the people who taught them had no crops, and they couldn't protect themselves. What kind of support can they get?"

Qian Zuisheng's tone was as indifferent as ever: "Why didn't you report it?"

"The lower official reported it, and the lower official wrote dozens of papers, but all of them fell into the sea." Shangguan Shou said helplessly:

"My lord, my concubine, it's not a pity for an official to die. Please, my lord, save the people of Yecheng!"

After Shangguan Tao finished speaking, he fell down on the ground.

Jiang Xian took a deep breath and looked at Lei Wu.

Lei Wu understood: "My lord, we still have 560 seven shi of grain left for our trip."

Jiang Xian nodded in shock: "Here..."

Before he finished speaking, there was an exclamation from behind, and Qi Lu stumbled to his feet: "Wang... Lord..."

Jiang Xian looked back in shock, seeing that the outside was full of flames at some point.

Nuo picked up Shangguan Shou from the ground one by one, leaped onto Shangguan Tao's shoulder with lightning speed, and clasped his throat tightly with both hands.

Wei Su kicked the door open.

I don't know when the outside has been silently filled with people.

The common people held torches and agricultural tools, looked sad and cold, and silently confronted the guards brought by Jiang Xianjing.

Shangguan Shou's throat was stopped, he could not speak, and he kept gesticulating with his hands.

"Bold...you troublemakers...do you want to rebel?" Qi Lu said tremblingly.

Jiang Xianjing didn't panic at all, and stood side by side with Qian Zuisheng, but frowned slightly when he heard the word "troublemaker".

"Let him go..."

Qian Zui ordered quietly.

Nu Yi reluctantly let go of his hand.

Shangguan Shou coughed violently: "Ahem..."

"grown ups……"

All the people in the courtyard took a step forward.

Shangguan Shou hurriedly made a stop gesture: "Folks, don't get excited, misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding!"

The people will be suspicious.

Jiang Xian nodded in surprise: "Everyone, don't get excited, we are here to provide disaster relief and resettle everyone. If you have any grievances, just say it."

The people looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Don't believe them, they are in the same group as those people, and tonight those two people are buying meat from me with a pot of gold beads."

After speaking, his face was full of anger, and he held up the golden beads for everyone to see.

The people immediately became excited: "The liar...kill them, kill them..."

The shouts were loud.

Jiang Xian blocked Qian Zuisheng behind him without a trace of shock, and looked back at Shangguanshou: "What's going on?"

"Forgive me, my lord, please allow me to say something."

Shangguan Shou pointed to Nu Yi who was riding ferociously on his shoulders.

Qian Zuisheng nodded to Nu.

Nu pouted his lips and jumped down reluctantly.

"Folks, please listen to my words..." Shangguan Tao stepped forward, "This is Prince Du, a student of General Mo Zhuang, and this is Prince Du and Princess Du. They are really here to help us."

Only then did the expressions of the people ease down.

Shangguan Tao earnestly said: "Everyone, don't get excited, put down the things in your hands first."

"But, I saw them come to buy broth..."

Jiang Xian held up the infant child in shock for everyone to see: "Fellow folks, my wife is weak. We traveled all the way just to find a bowl of broth for him. I didn't know the situation here before."

"Yes, the lower officials are not effective, if the pig is not lost..."

"Alive, the child is still alive!"

Only then did the commoners feel completely relieved, and they knelt on the ground one after another: "My lord, help me!"

Jiang Xianjing immediately promised to build a porridge shop in front of the city lord's mansion tomorrow and use officers and soldiers to solve the water for it.

The premise is that all newborn babies in the city must be registered and registered, and all butcher shops will be closed immediately.

Poor parents all over the world, if it wasn't true that they couldn't survive, who would want to do such insane things?

Thank you very much, the people.

Persuading the people to leave, Jiang Xian pointed at the shopkeeper in shock: "You stay..."

Shangguan Tao took a step forward: "My lord..."

Both Jiang Xianjing and Qian Zuisheng had obviously noticed that when Shangguantao was persuading the people just now, he avoided the most serious and took the lightest, obviously trying to cover up something.

"You don't have to worry, this king just has something to ask him, Mr. Shangguan is not very old but his memory is not good."

Shangguan Tao squinted at Qi Lu, his face pale and defeated.

After Jiang Xianjing finished speaking, he winked at Lei Wu.

In the room, only Jiang Xianjing, Qian Zuisheng and the shopkeeper were left.

"You can talk now."

The shopkeeper nodded and bowed, kept apologizing, and slapped himself dozens of times, saying that he had no eyes and no eyes, and that he had mistakenly recognized the true Buddha.

Jiang Xianjing was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, raised the knife and dropped it, and one of the shopkeeper's fingers moved instantly.

The shock of Jiang Xian and Qian Zuisheng can't be described in words. They thought that the people guarding Yecheng were struggling to survive, so it was a last resort to cook and eat.

Unexpectedly, it was frenzied and developed into a business, and formed a large-scale industrial chain.

When families in surrounding towns are seriously ill or weak and need tonic, they will pay a high price to buy a bowl of broth.

The shopkeeper saw that Jiang Xianjing and Qian Zuisheng were dressed in luxurious clothes, and Qian Zuisheng seemed to have a deficiency, so he recognized them as soup buyers.

"Then why did you kill the person who bought the soup?"

The shopkeeper's face turned pale: "Last month, a group of rich merchants also came. Because they wanted a large quantity of goods, and they had the lord Shangguan as a guarantee, they only paid a deposit."

Jiang Xian's hands shook in shock.

"We put all our efforts in the city, and managed to get it all together. I didn't expect that group of people to take the goods, but they were unwilling to cash in the final payment. When they left, they even injured Mr. Shangguan."

Qian Zuisheng asked: "Who are those people?"

The shopkeeper shook his head: "It looks very familiar, but the villain recognizes the silver as official silver. Since then, there has been an unwritten rule in Shouye City not to do official business."

The shopkeeper's expression was numb, and he said "business."

Jiang Xian kept rubbing the center of her brows in shock, her chest seemed to be pressed by something, and it was painful.

There was a rumble in his mind, and before the shopkeeper finished speaking, he suddenly got up from his seat and kicked at the shopkeeper: "Business? You treat human life as a business? Do you have any conscience?"

Qian Zuisheng opened the door with an ugly face: "Take him down, strict interrogation."

-

Shangguan Tao fell to the ground.

Jiang Xian was pacing around the room in shock.

Shangguan Tao knelt down on the ground in despair, refusing to admit the identities of the buyers, kowtowed when he was in a hurry, and passed out several times.

Wei Su led troops to search the city lord's mansion overnight.

It was found that the mansion was deserted.

In addition to the main hall, the side halls and even the tables, chairs and benches were sold out.

Apart from an old-fashioned housekeeper, there is only a six-year-old idiot left in the mansion.

Even the maids who brought tea and water to Qian Zuisheng and Jiang Xianjing were improvised by the villagers.

The family background of the City Lord's Mansion is probably not as good as the shopkeeper's shop.

According to the people guarding the city of Ye, Shangguan Tao was so generous to the people that his own family couldn't help but help the people.

Jiang Xian was startled and thought hard, but he really couldn't figure out why Shangguantao earned such unconscionable black-hearted money?

"Take people down first."

Qian Zuisheng held the tea cup in his hands and handed it to Jiang Xianjing.
