"Where's your prefectural order?" Chu Feng didn't bother to pay attention to this little guy, after all, he came here to do something right.

"My lord, although the little one just said crazy words, but our adults are really meeting guests now, this is really not lying to you," the little guy saw Chu Cover's expressionlessness, and thought he was angry, so he hurriedly said, "But that person's official is not as big as your adult, the little one will go and inform the master, let the master come out quickly, and the lord will sit down for a while!" ”

After the little guy finished speaking, he ran away without a trace, if Chu Feng was really angry, the dignified Shaoqing of Dali Temple was really enough for him to drink a pot, so hurry up and call the county order out to deal with him!

Chu Feng sat and waited for a while, but he didn't wait long to see the slightly chubby county commander hurrying over, and there seemed to be a person behind him, I don't know why Chu Feng felt a little familiar.

"Lord Chu, if you are disappointed, please invite Lord Chu Haihan!" As soon as the county magistrate came over, he hurriedly saluted and apologized, "I was talking to Lord Zhao just now, but I didn't expect you to come, Lord Chu." ”

Lord Zhao?

Just when Chu Feng was wondering who this Lord Zhao was, the person behind the county commander stood up and said with a smile, "Lord Chu, do you remember Weichen?" ”

This person is none other than Zhao Pingrong, Zhao Pingrong has been following Song Yuyu, so this time to investigate this matter, Song Yuyu also called Zhao Pingrong out.

Although Chu Feng didn't have much contact with Zhao Pingrong, he still knew that there was such a person as Zhao Pingrong, and Zhao Pingrong still had some real talents, so Chu Feng also knew him.

"Lord Zhao is also here to investigate the case this time?" Chu Feng turned his head, but he also thought clearly about the relationship between Zhao Pingrong and Song Yuyu.

"That's right," Zhao Pingrong replied, "Fang Cai Weichen has already asked this Lin County Commander, and he understands the situation almost well," Zhao Pingrong paused when he said this, "It's all a lie." ”

Lin Xianling was originally watching Chu Feng and Zhao Pingrong reminisce from the sidelines, and thought that he had no part to speak, but he didn't expect that this spearhead was suddenly pointed at him, which scared him enough.

"Zhao Zhao Zhao ...... Lord Zhao, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense! Lin Xian Ling stammered a little and said, "How can what you say below be a lie?" Why didn't you just say that what you said was a lie, and said it like this as soon as you arrived in front of Lord Chu? ”

Zhao Pingrong was noncommittal, and did not answer Lin County's question, but explained to Chu Feng, "I understand the situation clearly, what Lin County's order means is that this year's harvest cost is not good, so there is not enough food to eat, right?" ”

Lin Xian Ling hurriedly nodded, "That's what it means, that's what it means!" This year's harvest is really not good, otherwise I wouldn't dare to go to the emperor for appropriation! ”

Chu Feng was still silent, wanting to see what Zhao Pingrong wanted to say. 120

"That's wrong," Zhao Pingrong shook his finger, "Didn't Lin Xian Ling go to the field to take a look?" The fields are full of rice stalks that have been harvested, I went to take a look, it seems that the harvest is objective, and the harvest season of early rice is only half a month away from now, is it possible that those rice will be eaten in half a month? ”

Zhao Pingrong's words made Lin County Ling a little speechless, "That'...... That was last year, and this year's early rice was not planted at all! ”

Zhao Pingrong didn't bother to refute, but looked at Chu Feng, "I don't know if Lord Chu has gone to the granary to see it, Weichen found that there are traces of burning at the door of the granary, does Lord Lin know what's going on?" Generally speaking, open flames are completely forbidden in granaries, but how can there be traces of burning? ”

Chu Feng listened to Zhao Pingrong's words, but he admired him a little, no wonder Song Yuyu wanted to send him out to investigate this matter, it seems that there is still some effort.

Lin Xian Ling couldn't speak at this time, he was not a person who was good at lying, and this time this matter was also a last resort, seeing that Zhao Pingrong had already told all the doubts about the incident, and even such a big official as Shaoqing of Dali Temple came here to investigate, seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, he sighed and simply admitted it.

"Lord Zhao is right, he really told a lie." Lin Xian Ling sat on the chair next to him and said, "This year's harvest is indeed good, it is definitely enough to eat, and our small place has never been difficult enough to find relief from the imperial court, but this time, it was really an accident." ”

"Just one night a while ago, the granary suddenly caught fire for some reason, and we usually don't have a particularly strict guard for the granary After all, if it is peaceful today, no one will come to pay attention to the granary, but I didn't expect that it was because of such an omission that today's catastrophe occurred, and when we put out the fire, we found that the entire granary had been burned out."

Speaking of this place, Lin Xianling couldn't help but feel deeply sad, "This matter is at fault, but I was too panicked when I saw that the granary was empty, because it was my responsibility to guard the granary, and now so much grain has been burned because of the negligence of the subordinates, but I am really afraid...... After all, if it is really spread out, it will definitely lose its head, so I will be cross-hearted, saying that the harvest is not good, and now the two adults are aware of everything, and they can't hide it, so you adults can do what you should do."

After listening to what Lin County Ling said, Zhao Pingrong and Chu Feng glanced at each other, and they all knew that the matter was definitely not as simple as Lin County Ling said, if it was really just caused by an accidental fire, then there was no need to go to such great lengths to investigate the case, mainly because there could not be so many places for the same reason, right?

"Lord Lin, go down first, I'll talk about it with Lord Chu in total." Zhao Pingrong saw Lin Xianling's sad expression, and he also felt that he was a little pitiful.

"What do you think, Lord Zhao?" Chu Feng only had a little bit of information in his hand, and he was going to listen to Zhao Pingrong and wait for my opinion.

"What Lin Xianling said should be true," Zhao Pingrong replied, "He is indeed an honest man, but Weichen feels that the granary fire is just a cover. ”

"Disguise? What do you think? Chu Feng thought of the roof that had not been smoked by the black smoke, and he originally thought that the granary would definitely not be burned down.

"There are no traces of burning inside the granary," Zhao Pingrong replied with a smile, "Although it's a little embarrassing to say, when I was a child, I cooked by myself and burned my house once, that scene is quite spectacular, and there are still traces of flames in my home, so if that granary is really because of an accident, it is absolutely impossible to have no traces." ”

"The two of us thought of going together." Chu Feng opened his mouth, "I also went to the granary to see it when I came, and it was exactly the same as the situation you said." ”
