Yang Baodai listened to Chao Chao running in and saying that something had happened to the refugee, the silk thread in her hand paused, stood up and slammed it to the cup at hand, she raised her hand to grab the cup that was about to roll down, looked at Chao Chao and was stunned for a long time, seemed to be a little frightened, leaning on the table: "How many people died?" ”

Chao Chao shook his head: "I don't know, the young master has already stepped up, madam, did you say that someone wants to mess with us!" Although Zhao Yuanzhi also holds the title of Shoufu, in the eyes of many bold and blind officials outside, it is just because the imperial court still needs Zhao Yuanzhi to sit in charge, so he has left a good position in the cabinet.

Yang Baodai thought about it, and went through the names of the big and small officials in Fuzhou and those famous Confucians, and felt that it was not their handiwork, Zhao Yuanzhi was also clean up and down, and he was always tactful.

"You go and inquire clearly, go quickly, I remember that Yuan Zhen had two henchmen who turned into refugees and did eyeliner there, you call one to come and ask me." Yang Baodai said that she came to drink tea, forcing herself to calm down quickly: "Go to the account room again to make it valuable, and bring all the Langzhong people in the whole prefecture to take a look at it." ”

The matter of refugees is the most important thing in the capital, if there is really something to do, Zhao Yuanzhi is going to have a great deal to do with it, and all kinds of crimes of embezzlement and disaster relief funds can fly over like snowflakes, and this big year will not be able to settle down! Yang Baodai was very anxious, and looked at the person standing stupidly and said, "Don't go yet!" ”

Nearly an hour later, Yang Baodai looked at the person who was carried in, followed by a guard from Zhao Yuanzhi: "The adult is dealing with things in the suburbs, and it is estimated that he will not come back tonight. ”

Yang Baodai hurriedly placed the person in the west wing next to him, that person was the Xiucai Lang in the disaster victims, called Shang Sanlang, because he could read and write, he was arranged by Zhao Yuanzhi to count the daily increase and decrease of the number of people in the disaster and the winter food needed, Shang Sanlang leaned on the side of the bed and coughed uncomfortably, looked at the gentle woman who walked in, and was shocked, and the girl who fed him medicine told him that this was the wife of the family.

"Lean on." Yang Baodai sat on the embroidery stool: "It's all my people here, my husband sent you back, it must be something important that you know in your mouth, and say it." ”

"It's someone who frames the adult, it's someone who wants the adult to be sad, it's all good when the adult comes today, and after the adult leaves, at night, I suddenly don't know where the official came from sent twenty or thirty refugees, and it's not a person with a Quanzhou accent, but it's still taken in······ Who knew that these people were just some thorns, and our people got into trouble, and then, everyone fought, and they hit the forest, and then the trees fell, and the people, and the people who smashed were our people, I went to see them, and those trees were all traces of man-made felling, and after those people made trouble, they heard that Lord Zhao was coming, and they set fire to it······"

"What did you say?" Yang Baodai's voice was loud in surprise: "They let the mountain burn? "It's important that the cold winter weather is dry, and the victims live there, isn't there going to be an accident, what kind of heart do these people have, they have to make Zhao Yuanzhi like this!

Shang Saburo nodded: "I don't know the specifics, but the evidence should be almost burned by the fire." ”

"Do you remember what they looked like?" Yang Baodai wandered back and forth twice, and said, "But someone with a Fuzhou accent?" ”

Shang Saburo nodded: "It should be, but they took advantage of the chaos to leave." ”

Yang Baodai asked a few words and ordered someone to take good care of Shang Sanlang, and when she went out, the soft smile just now disappeared: "Show me this person, don't die, don't answer what he asks, don't give him anything but food, and then call two guards with kung fu to guard." ”

Chao Chao was puzzled, Yang Baodai had already walked forward: "This person is wrong, how much does a talented man know about it?" And his words are too deliberate, have you paid attention to his tiger's mouth? There are a lot of stab wounds, and there are calluses, this person is afraid that he has hidden it, and if he can't get it, he will set a fire to our backyard. She said with a quick pace: "Prepare the car, let's go and see"

"But the lord said he wouldn't let Madame go." Chao Chao followed closely behind: "You stay at home well, that is to make it convenient for the young master, let's not go, there are refugees everywhere, and if you don't get it right, you will be instigated, the young master is in a hurry, what can't be done, you go, he is tied up, let's wait for the dawn, see the situation in Fuzhou." ”

Yang Baodai stopped talking, pinching Chao Chao's wrist: "Go to the front hall, I can't sleep, if there is any situation outside, report to me as soon as possible, by the way, go and send a message to Sheng Heng overnight." ”

I didn't wait for dawn, but I waited for a message of worship.

It is Zhou Xiangli, the mother of the local businessman.

The business of the Zhou family is all over Dayu, but unfortunately there is only a daughter in this generation, so she became a husband, and the business of the family fell on the head of the housewife, Yang Baodai leaned on the chair and pinched the post, she didn't like this person, too powerful every word and deed is the supremacy of interests, this person knew that she wanted to do tea business, and wanted to give her a route to go outside the customs in order to cooperate.

Yang Baodai knew that what she valued was Zhao Yuanzhi behind her, and the Zhou family was only a businessman if they were rich, and there was no one to help in the court.

Yang Baodai groaned: "Don't worry about it for the time being." ”

Waiting for the dawn to break, news came that the fire had been extinguished and that the wounded were now being treated.

When it was noon, when Zhao Yuanzhi finally took a breath, he heard Li Tong say that Yang Baodai was here.

Yang Baodai lifted the carriage curtain and looked at her husband who stretched out his hand to her, Zhao Yuanzhi was anxious: "It's not that I won't let you come, I'm fine, but I can't go back to accompany you these days, you stay at home obediently." ”

Yang Baodai also brought three carriages behind her, all of which were some medicine and food, so she said, "I made some porridge for you, you can drink some." She didn't dare to bring any heavy rain and fish, so she pulled Zhao Yuanzhi to the side: "Do you know who did it?" ”

"Nothing, little things, I'll take care of it." Zhao Yuanzhi said and looked at Yang Baodai's eyes changed, and sighed: "Don't be fierce, I can see that I am panicking." He promised Yang Baodai that from now on he would not hide anything from her, but he felt that it was very hypocritical to say some small things.

Yang Baodai looked at the man without speaking, and turned around: "Chao Chao, pour that porridge for me." ”

"Don't, don't!" Zhao Yuanzhi pulled his wife: "Didn't I tell you no?" I cut off some people's trade routes, and it was the people from the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce who came to give me a trick, waiting for Lao Tzu to free up his hands to kill them. ”

"They are the head snakes of the land, what are you fighting with them, sending people to intercept their financial routes?" Yang Baodai wiped her face with her sleeve and Zhao Yuanzhi: "I'm here to tell you, the lady of the Zhou family has given me a prayer post, since you said that it was because of the Chamber of Commerce, then I will go to meet her, but you give me a quasi-letter, how much can this person believe." ”

"She?" Zhao Yuanzhi felt a little embarrassed: "This person used to have a lot of money in my Zhao family, and he was a bit old in business, but ah, he didn't know how to be flexible, but the silver was really much." He paused and walked to the side with Yang Baodai: "I have also met her twice when she went to the capital, and she wanted me to take an official road to her for shipment, this court has rules, so it can't be messed up." ”

"Didn't you take a look at the goods that walked through the official road?"

"I'm a guard and a thief, hiding so that no one knows, she, she wants to make everyone know!" Zhao Yuanzhi pressed his head: "Don't go to meet her, I'll deal with this matter." ”

"If you didn't say that I might be gone, since you said it, I'd better go and see it." Yang Baodai touched his cheek: "You are here to be good, what is there to let someone tell me, I have already sent a letter to Sheng Heng, it's not that I said you, you are now Zhizhou, not the first assistant, you don't have to be too axial." ”

In the past, Mu Changping and Gou Er could still suppress him for a few points, but now Emperor Tiangao can't control him alone.

"Yes, yes, my wife is right." Zhao Yuanzhi heard someone call him as he spoke, "What's wrong!?" Didn't you see me accompanying Madame? ”

Li Tong hugged a female doll who was crying: "This, this person's grandmother is dead, and she keeps crying!" I haven't found her mother, but what can I do? ”

"You take it first!"

Yang Baodai walked over, and looked at a five or six-year-old girl, her eyes were big and very cute, she reached out and hugged her: "Where is your mother?" What is your name? ”

"My name is Jia'er, my mother, and my mother doesn't know where she went."

"Are there many children?" Yang Baodai is now a mother, and she feels distressed when she looks at such a child: "Otherwise, they will all be sent to the house, and Zhao Ren will be placed at that time." ”

"Someone takes care of them, isn't this person's mother here? Maybe I went looking for something to eat, or I went to help, so let's leave it here first. ”

"Then I'll take it back, wait for her mother to come, and let her come to me." Yang Baodai felt that this child was cute and pitiful, so she carried the person into the carriage.

The little doll was a little cramped, and Chao Chao wiped her face: "Wait for your mother to come to you, what's your big name?" ”

"Mother said you can't just tell people your name."

Yang Baodai was very funny, but the carriage stopped, and she listened to the neat voice.

"Mrs. Zhao, can you enjoy your face and drink tea?"

The woman outside was holding a neat bun and wearing a silver-white long jacket, looking neat and magnificent, it was Zhou Xiangli.
