Chapter 591: Deception

Liu Mingzhi, who was eavesdropping, heard the footsteps and hurriedly retreated to his original position, pretending to be dazed and ignorant to look at the surrounding environment, as if he didn't know that he had entered the 'den of thieves'!

The door opened, Zhao Qi and Brother He walked out one after another, and Zhao Qi nodded kindly to Liu Mingzhi.

Brother He stared at Liu Mingzhi a little unkindly, as if he wanted to see something, and under the vigilant gaze, Liu Mingzhi nodded and responded.

It's really the same as a weak Jiangnan scholar.

This is really not acting, Liu Mingzhi is indeed a Jiangnan scholar, as for whether he is weak and can't help but wind, it's hard to say.

For Liu Mingzhi's performance, Brother He did not relax in the slightest, and Zhao Qi said it clearly, the seemingly weak Yunyou scholar in front of him had the strength, and he was able to catch Zhao Qi with one move and make him powerless to resist.

You must know that although Zhao Qi is not a martial arts master, he has also practiced a rough kung fu, and ordinary dealers really can't help it, but this guy in front of him who calls himself a wandering poet ........

Brother He examined Liu Mingzhi for a while and finally asked, "Where are you from in Jiangnan?" ”

"Back to the eldest brother, the younger brother's ancestral home is from Jinling, Jiangnan, although he has been to many places in the past six months, but the hometown has not changed much."

Brother He thought carefully for a while, Liu Mingzhi's accent is indeed the accent of the Jiangnan generation, which really can't be faked, and basically ruled out the identity of Liu Dashao as a secret agent of the Qingzhou Mansion.

Brother He nodded suspiciously: "Do you want to find something to eat?" ”

"Yes, yes, the eldest brother is wise, the younger brother's body was seized by the guards of the Qingzhou City Gate, and none of the inns in the city are willing to let the younger brother live, if you can't find a way back, I don't know how to live in the future."

"Have you ever practiced kung fu?"

"I've practiced, my younger brother's family is also well-off in Jinling, and I have learned a few superficial kung fu songs from the nursing home to defend myself, it's hard to get into the hall of elegance, and the eldest brother won't dislike my kung fu, right?"

Liu Mingzhi directly admitted that he had practiced fist and foot kung fu, he knew that it was useless to quibble, Zhao Qi had already told the big brother He in front of him about his one move to catch him, if he wanted to gain their trust, it was better to admit it directly.

"Well, it's quite true, come in, but don't ask around about some things, it won't be good for you to know more!"

"Yes, yes, the younger brother must abide by the rules, and I take the liberty of asking, eldest brother, can the younger brother give me something to eat first? You know, I'm eating a lot at my age, and I'm so hungry I can't stand it! ”

Brother He and Zhao Qi shook their heads with a chuckle: "You guy is not a welcome lord, don't worry about your food." ”

Liu Mingzhi's honest performance dispelled the doubts of the two of them a little, and they asked for food before they entered the door, which is the most basic idea of hungry people.

"Thank you, thank you two big brothers for taking it in!"

He looked around at the empty streets of private houses, and took the lead in entering the private houses, and Liu Mingzhi also followed.

It's just that Liu Mingzhi made a few gestures quickly before entering the door, and now it seems that he can't return to the Yunlai Inn today, and he must ask the people from the relevant department to send a message back to Song Qing and Qinglian to change places.

The leader of the guards at the Qingzhou City Gate obviously had bad intentions, and he really didn't have 300,000 taels of silver on him to satisfy his greed, or the greed of the officials of Qingzhou Mansion.

Walking into the private house, Liu Mingzhi was a little stunned, the seemingly dilapidated private house was actually hidden in the sky, and the entire private house was actually opened, and it was a spacious place that could accommodate thousands of people.

Liu Mingzhi looked at the thousands of people in front of him who were resting in the corner of the wall, and the clothes on his body were all ragged, and even exuded a strong smell.

Glancing at Zhao Qi and Liu Mingzhi, who had no different color, Liu Mingzhi sighed silently, I am afraid that the two of them have long been accustomed to the environment in front of them.

Following behind Brother He silently, Liu Mingzhi looked at the victims who were looking at him curiously and nodded lightly.

Walking into a fairly neat house, there was a fairly complete poplar table and a few rough stools, which were all the furniture in the room.

Brother He gave Zhao Qi a slight gesture, Zhao Qi nodded and smiled lightly and looked at Liu Mingzhi, who was a little pretending to be restrained: "This brother, I don't know your name yet!" ”

"Oh oh oh, back to Brother Zhao's little brother is called Willow Tree, Willow Tree of Willow Tree."

Zhao Qi nodded: "Brother Liu, you sit back first, and the eldest brother will go get you some food to fill your stomach!" ”

"Thank you, thank you."

After Zhao Qi left, Liu Mingzhi pretended to look at the house in front of him: "Brother He, can you tell the younger brother what happened in Qingzhou Mansion?" The younger brother was fine when he passed through Chromium, why was he confiscated when he arrived in Qingzhou, if they didn't return it to the younger brother, the younger brother could only starve to death, and he couldn't enter other cities at all, so he naturally couldn't return to his hometown. ”

Brother He looked at the sky outside wistfully: "Don't think about it, you won't be able to get out of Qingzhou City in half a year, and you may never be able to get out of Qingzhou City, and now Qingzhou Mansion is under martial law!" ”

"Martial law? Why martial law? ”

"Do you know why you were confiscated?"

"I don't understand very well, my little brother still thinks that this is the rule of Qingzhou Mansion, and when they want to leave, they will give it back to me?"

"Because you know about the locust plague, they are afraid that you will leak the news! After receiving your identity, you will become a homeless person without a household registration, with nowhere to go, and naturally there will be no way to spread the news, so as to achieve their purpose of hiding people's eyes. ”

"Big brother, the more you talk about the younger brother, the more confused you become, since there is a locust plague, shouldn't the officials deal with the locust plague? Why hide it? They can send a letter to His Majesty the Emperor to deal with the locust plague. ”

After listening to Liu Mingzhi's words, Brother He's face showed a trace of horror, as if he recalled some frightened scene.

He couldn't help but shudder, Brother He looked at Liu Mingzhi with palpitations, shook his head, and his tone trembled a little: "It can't be cured, the locusts are overwhelming, the crops are gone, the leaves are gone, even the weeds that no one cares about are gone, the locusts are crossing, and not a single inch of grass grows!" ”

"Why didn't the governor of Qingzhou and the Qingzhou assassin open a warehouse to release grain? The imperial court clearly stipulates that the state treasury of various prefectures will store 300,000 stone of grain in Shangzhou, 200,000 grain in Zhongzhou, and 100,000 grain in Xiazhou to meet the needs of emergencies. Qingzhou is a central state, and it should have 200,000 grain deposits, and the Governor's Mansion should also store 300,000 grains for emergencies in the eight states under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou Mansion. ”

"Yes, after two months of studying, the surplus food in the people's homes has been consumed, and the states of Qingzhou Prefecture have only begun to release grain for disaster relief, but those disaster relief grains are ......."

Liu Mingzhi's eyes narrowed, a momentum of not being angry and self-righteous flashed away, the Qingzhou government really deceived the superiors and concealed the subordinates, the emperor did not issue an order for disaster relief at all, the officials of the Qingzhou Mansion whitewashed the peace to the top, concealed the facts from the subordinates, according to the laws of the dragon, his crime should be decided, and the whole family was charged with three thousand miles.

"It's coming, Brother Willow, the meal is coming!"

"Thank you, Brother Zhao."

Liu Mingzhi hurriedly greeted him, and accidentally stepped on Zhao Qi's feet, Liu Mingzhi's face was flustered: "Brother Zhao, I'm really embarrassed, little brother will wipe you clean." ”

Zhao Qi put the two coarse porcelain bowls on the table: "It's okay, it's okay, let's eat first!" ”

"Let's wipe it, the little brother really doesn't have a ..........." Liu Mingzhi, who bent down, looked at Zhao Qi's shoes for a moment, glanced at Brother He's shoes and nodded thoughtfully.

"Brother Zhao doesn't dislike it, forget it!"
