Chapter 254: Arrangement
When the two finally arrived in Jiangnan, Yin Jingrui and Su Yiyi dressed up in disguise, and then entered the city.
In order to reassure the emperor, he sent a secret guard here, and then instructed the secret guard what to do, so now Jiangnan has gradually detached itself from the disaster.
However, compared with the previous prosperity, the street is still a little depressed, and there are many yellow-faced and thin-skinned people on the street, and when they see someone coming, they come forward to beg with broken bowls.
Yin Jingrui took Su Yiyi to stay in an inn, and when it was nightfall, he quietly sneaked into the courtyard that was said to be specially arranged for the general manager to live.
"Who?"
The people in the room were very vigilant, and when they heard the noise outside, they immediately ran out, Yin Jingrui showed his true face, and the person immediately knelt down.
"The master, the master, the subordinates, the subordinates still think ...... Seventeen subordinates meet their masters! Seventeen was a little incoherent in surprise.
was originally a seven-foot man, but his voice was already choked.
These are all secret guards who came out of his own hands, and Yin Jingrui also has deep feelings for them, but he has always been strong, even if there are fluctuations in his heart, he will not show it on his face.
He stepped into the room first, and Seventeen immediately followed, carefully closing the door.
"Is there any news from the cold wind?"
Although he knew that it was impossible, Yin Jingrui still asked with a glimmer of hope.
"No, since I knew that something happened to my master, my subordinates have been inquiring about the news, if Commander Leng is still alive, I believe he will definitely contact his subordinates."
Leng Feng's relationship with Yin Jingrui, Dark Wei naturally knew it, so he didn't dare to say that Leng Feng was probably not in the world, so he could only comfort him like this.
After being silent for a while, Yin Jingrui asked, "How many people do we have now?"
"Plus subordinates, there are about ten people."
These ten people originally planned to stay in Changguo and use it to find out the news, but they didn't expect that now they have become their last belongings, and it would be a lie to say that they are not sad.
However, he is not a person who accepts setbacks, and after a slight pause, he immediately cheered up and said to Seventeen, "What is the situation in Jiangnan now." ”
"The affairs of the subordinates are all done according to the master's orders, and the recovery situation in Jiangnan is almost as expected by the master." Seventeen immediately reported all the big and small things he had done in the past few days to Chang Rui.
Yin Jingrui nodded, and gave him another command, and then he put on the human skin mask that Chang Rui ordered, and Seventeen was sent by him to the inn to protect Su Yiyi.
On the second day, after Yin Jingrui got up early, Lord Xu, the prefect of Jiangnan, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately greeted him with a flattering face.
"Manager Chang, you had a good rest last night."
Compared with the reserved attitude of those officials in the capital when they curry favor with Chang Rui, this Lord Xu is much more explicit, an old face can't wait to smile a flower, and he can't wait to kneel in front of Chang Rui.
Last night, the guards had already introduced almost all the people here to him, and looking at his appearance, Yin Jingrui guessed his identity.
"How's the embankment going?"
Chang Rui said lightly.
"Chief Chang is really wise and martial, Xia Guan was about to report this matter to you, but I didn't expect you to have guessed it, Xia Guan-"
"Alright, let's get to the point." Yin Jingrui impatiently interrupted his rambling.
This Lord Xu is still the prefect of a state, and he is so subservient and charming, it seems that this Changguo is about to be abolished.
Seeing that he didn't like it, Lord Xu had no choice but to take back the beautiful words in his stomach.
"Yes, yes, the lower officials have received the news just now that the river embankment has been almost completed, and it will be completed in two days at most." As he spoke, he complimented again, "It's all thanks to my father-in-law's leadership-"
"Really? Then go with our family to inspect it, this embankment is the most important thing, and you can't be sloppy. ”
"Rest assured, the lower officials will definitely keep an eye on it, and there will never be a trace of mistakes, so why should you-"
Lord Xu had to talk at length, but Yin Jingrui was not in the mood to waste time with him, so he just raised his leg and left.
Lord Xu's face turned white, and he didn't dare to say anything more, so he ran to follow.
I don't know if it's his delusion, why does today's Chang General Manager always feel much colder than before, especially the demeanor of not being angry and arrogant, it is simply scary.
To say that this Lord Xu is really a talent to be the prefect, the whole process is like Yin Jingrui's dog legs, fanning and opening the way, running around Chang Rui's side, busy.
Rao is Chang Rui, who is used to being stammered, and he can't stand his best to cater to him.
Walking in a group of yellow-skinned and ragged refugees, Lord Xu followed inch by inch, and the group of servants he brought with him were also scattered on both sides, responsible for separating those refugees, so as not to collide with this big man.
"Manager Chang, let the subordinate officials do these things, why bother you to come here in person, you are so busy with things every day, you have to pay attention to your body."
This Jiangnan disaster, although I have already been on the fold in advance, but after all, this is something that happened in my own office.
Now the emperor is in a mess for a while, and he hasn't thought about what to do with himself, if he thinks about it, he is afraid that his black gauze hat will not be protected, so Lord Xu will try his best to please Yin Jingrui.
After all, he is the most favored eunuch by the emperor's side, and his words are only afraid that they carry more weight than the words of the Manchu Dynasty.
"Our family has the emperor's order, how can we do nothing." Lord Xu had such a flattering intention, Yin Jingrui could also guess a few points, after all, it was still useful for this person to keep it, so Yin Jingrui patiently replied.
"Yes, yes, the lower official is speechless."
Lord Xu immediately pleaded guilty with a look of remorse, and was about to say something good again, but who knows, at this time, there was a wave of chaos in the refugee group.
A woman suddenly ran out of the crowd, all messy and dirty, and ran directly in their direction.
"Mr. Chang, Mr. Chang!"
Lord Xu reacted the fastest, and in order to show his loyalty, he immediately said to the officials on the side, "Don't stop it yet!" ”
I knew that he should have asked people to clear this place first, if it was because of these dirty and lowly victims who collided with this person, I was afraid that he would not say good things, and it would be good for him to go back and visit himself in front of the emperor.
The official on the side listened to his prompt, and immediately drew the saber in his hand, and was about to step forward to hack this bold woman to death, when Chang Rui spoke.
"Wait."
"Lord Steward?" Lord Xu was a little confused about what he meant.
"Let her in." Yin Jingrui said slowly.
Although he didn't know how this cold manager Chang suddenly became interested in a refugee, Lord Xu still hurriedly said, "Don't let people in soon." ”
Then the official took the knife and let the man go.
"Manager Chang, the slave has found you." The woman walked up to Chang Rui and suddenly made a move that surprised everyone.
She threw herself into Chang Rui's arms, and Lord Xu's eyes almost popped out.
Oh my God, oh my God, this woman is crazy, does she know who she is hugging?
I knew that I shouldn't have let her in like this, this cheap girl is too bold, how good would it be if I was angry with Manager Chang because of her?
Unexpectedly, Chang Rui not only did not get annoyed, but instead stretched out his hand, wiped it on the woman's dirty face, and said in surprise, "Yiyi, why are you here?" Aren't you in the palace? ”
