When the official secretly took the overwhelmed Wu Ada, he left the yamen and rushed to the secret contact point of Jinyiwei. Shen Yueru made a surprising decision, he sat in his study and worked hard to write a letter whose content no one knew. As soon as he finished writing the letter, a scribe came in with Qiu Xiaoqiu. This scribe is today's master on duty, Qiu Xiaoqiu came to report to him, and through it he could see the county master himself. According to the procedure, all matters must be reported by the scribe to the magistrate, and the uncle's questions must also be answered by the scribe. Qiu Xiaoqiu's small feet can't look up at the big master, let alone talk directly to the big man. So Qiu Xiaoqiu had secretly stuffed a tael of silver given to him by his father Qiu Min to this scribe in accordance with the "rules". The scribe who gets the silver will help Qiu Xiaoqiu speak, and will stand on Qiu Xiaoqiu's side, and try to agree to this matter as much as possible. This is the rule of the yamen, and it is also a rule, all the people in the yamen want to get married, funeral, and take leave to rest. Fortunately, Qiu Min is usually polite to everyone, Qin Tai is also good, Qiu Xiaoqiu is a child, so the scribe did not embarrass Qiu Xiaoqiu. Not only did he not ask for more "filial piety fees", but he also decided to say more good things for Qiu Xiaoqiu. What the scribe didn't expect was that the old man was so cheerful, and he agreed as soon as he opened his mouth. The scribe didn't think of Qin Tai's relationship, and thought that he had face in front of the eldest master, so he immediately smiled. Shen Yueru didn't break it, and asked the scribe to give Qiu Xiaoqiu a few more days of vacation, and after writing the fake note and road note, Shen Yueru personally stamped and signed. When the scribe went out to write a road note, Shen Yueru stuffed an envelope to Qiu Xiaoqiu. Qiu Xiaoqiu recognized a few words, his name, his father's name, and his cousin Qin Tai's name. Shen Yueru clicked on Qin Tai's name on the envelope, Qiu Xiaoqiu immediately understood what it meant, and the eldest master asked him to hand over the letter to his cousin Qin Tai with his own hands.

After getting the fake note, Qiu Xiaoqiu immediately joined Qin Tai, and at this time Qiu Min had already called a carriage. In order not to attract everyone's attention, the enemy parked the carriage at the back door of the yamen. As for the driver who drove the car, he could definitely rest assured, because his father was an enemy and came back. The coachman's father was carried into the yamen as a dead man, and if it weren't for the seriousness of the enemy, the old man would have been burned to death. The enemy not only saved the old man, but also cured him of his illness, so the coachman was very grateful to the enemy. Qiu Min did not take advantage of the coachman, but felt that this person was more honest and reassured, so he found him. Not only did the enemy not use the coachman in vain, but he also hired him twice as much as the others.

Qiu Min sent Qiu Xiaoqiu and Qin Tai to the carriage, and at the same time gave Qin Tai a silver ticket. Although he knew that Qin Tai must have brought money with him, he still gave Qin Tai all the private money that he was reluctant to use. and told Qiu Xiaoqiu to take care of himself and his cousin, and come back early to reunite with everyone. After a few brief words, everyone was in a hurry to get on the road. They were all worried that there would be an accident, and if someone stopped them, Qin Tai would not be able to go to Jiangnan.

The carriage deliberately went out of the city through the north gate, so that everyone thought that they were going north. In fact, as soon as they left the city, the carriage went south, running as fast as it could to the southeast. Qiu Xiaoqiu in the carriage remembered the letter from the eldest master and immediately handed it to his cousin Qin Tai. Qin Tai glanced at Qiu Xiaoqiu suspiciously, he still thought that Qiu Xiaoqiu had accidentally said something. But Qiu Xiaoqiu replied resolutely, he didn't say a word to the eldest master, so he wouldn't tell any secrets. Qin Tai looked at the envelope suspiciously, and was not in a hurry to open it. He thought back to Shen Yueru's every move, and a bold idea appeared, this Shen Yueru was not simple, maybe he was deliberately looking for an opportunity to get close to Qin Tai. If that's the case, why did Shen Yueru let herself leave her hometown? Is this a trap on the part of the other party? Or is there another reason?

After Qin Tai thought for a while, he still opened the envelope. He leaned against the corner of the carriage and looked at the letter through the window in the faint light. After reading the letter, even Qin Tai was dumbfounded, he didn't expect Shen Yue to make such a big determination and dare to do such a thing. Shen Yueru talked about his experience in the letter, talked about his own experience, and when he thought that there were no good officials in the world, or even no good people, he went to be a brocade guard. He is ready to use the method of violence to take revenge on all the corrupt officials in the world, for which he does not even want his wife and children, and even betrays his relatives. When he got to know Qin Tai, he knew whether it was Jinyiwei, the officials in the court, and even why Emperor Laozi was afraid of Qin Tai. Qin Tai himself is not terrible, but his firmness and persistence are shocking and terrifying. In addition, Qin Tai is a selfless person, who never thinks about himself or his family, "if he has no desire, he is strong", so he has a heroic and righteous spirit. He is even more feared and admirable than Hai Jui, who dares to speak out. No wonder Emperor Longqing neither dared to kill him, nor did he dare to reuse him. Xu Jie, the first assistant of the cabinet, gritted his teeth with hatred, but he didn't dare to give the order to execute Qin Tai, and besides, Qin Tai didn't do anything wrong. Shen Yueru hated himself so much, if he wasn't Jinyiwei, if he wasn't the one who sped on Qin Tai, if he had met Qin Tai a few years earlier, he would definitely follow Qin Tai for the rest of his life. It's a pity that it's too late, and he can't and doesn't dare to tell Qin Tai the truth. Now that Qin Tai is going to investigate the case, Jin Yiwei already knows, and I believe that the people above will know all this soon. The only thing he could help was to let Qin Tai leave his hometown and tell Qin Tai everything he knew. As long as his superiors don't punish him, if he is still the magistrate here, Qin Tai doesn't have to worry about his family, he will try his best to protect their safety. The following is the information that Shen Yueru tried her best to collect for Qin Tai, as well as the latest high-level trends.

Through Shen Yueru's explanation, Qin Tai finally knew the truth about the military rations in the marching bag in his hand. This kind of rice is called "Rumi", which looks similar to rice, but it can't be considered rice. This kind of "like rice" Shen Yueru has seen it and knows something about it, outsiders don't know the truth, but he knows it very well. This rice looks like a high-quality white rice, and you can barely see the black pebbles, so if you sell it outside, it is definitely first-class rice. But if you do this, not only will the grain store definitely not be able to open, but you will also be beaten to death by the angry people immediately. Because this kind of "rice" is actually inferior to even the lowest grade of rice bran, no, it should be said that it cannot be said to be grain. Because it can't be eaten, if you really eat it as food, not only will it not be cooked, but you will definitely die if you eat it. The so-called "Rumi" is composed of 30% lime, 60% white stone, and 10% Jiangmi. What is called "Jiangmi" is actually rice that has been soaked in water, and the purpose of this is to make the rice look full. Every time the new rice enters the warehouse, the soldiers in charge of the granary will use a very small amount of new rice in this batch to make "Jiang rice". It's not easy to make this kind of rice, and if you don't do it well, the rice will be rotten. First, the whole bag of rice is immersed in water for half an hour, then it is lifted and exposed to the sun in the open field. When the rice is about to dry, after sprinkling water on it seven or eight times in a row, "Jiangmi" is ready. The reason for this is that the first is to look full and shoddy. The second is the extra weight, which is one or two times heavier than ordinary new rice and nearly three times heavier than old rice. It is already a big sin to replace new rice with "Jiangmi", but they still feel that it is not enough. Adding lime to rice, and adding water from time to time to aggravate, is an old method. Adding white pebbles to rice is a method that has only been used for nearly 100 years. But this kind of "rice" like Qin Tai's hand is already the final result, and it can't be used anymore, and of course it can't be eaten. If you eat this kind of "rice", even if you can eat it, you will die immediately.

Shen Yueru once worked as a grain official for a period of time in order to go undercover by the side of a corrupt official, and knew about these methods of cheating. But he had never seen such a poor "Ru Rice", and he couldn't imagine how this kind of rice could become military rations. It was because of this kind of military food that Shen Yueru was awakened to the last bit of conscience, and it was decided that Shen Yueru would help Qin Tai. Shen Yueru told Qin Tai that when he was a grain officer, he was only half "Jiang rice" and half new rice at most, and there was also "Rumi". However, "such rice" is only forty percent white stone at most, one or two percent lime, and four or five percent real rice. As long as you understand the reason, you can still eat it after a little processing. Even if it is "Jiangmi", as long as it is steamed many times, although the taste is almost good, it can still be eaten. But this kind of "rice" in Qin Tai's hand must not be eaten, and if you eat it, you will definitely die. If the rice distributed by the army to the soldiers was like this, the soldiers would not be far off from rebelling. If half of this is the case, it will also cause a mutiny in the army. Once the rice of the common people in the south is also this kind of rice, it is better not to resettle it. Once everyone knows that the imperial court sends this kind of rice to everyone who eats people who will die, doesn't it mean that everyone is directly forced to die? In order to survive, everyone will definitely rebel, and when the time comes, the local soldiers will not only not help the court suppress, but will also join the ranks of the uprising. Reading is an empty phrase and will never succeed. The rebellion of the common people, as long as there is no one behind the scenes, will not last long. But once someone who understands military affairs joins, the nature changes. These people will not only make the backbone of the uprising, but also quickly cultivate batch after batch of military talents, and if the imperial court wants to deal with it at that time, it will have to spend a lot of effort. If the people's will is on the side of the rebels, it is not impossible to change the dynasty. Therefore, Qin Tai wants to go to Jiangnan to settle this case, not only to give everyone an explanation, but also to solve a crisis for the imperial court. Even if Shen Yueru is a very official, no matter how much she has opinions about the imperial court, she doesn't want to change the dynasty, and the people will suffer from war again. Therefore, Shen Yueru in public and private will try her best to help Qin Tai and fulfill the obligations of a Ming courtier.
