Chapter 83: Report to the Officer

"Yes."

Xiao Yu'an responded.

Subsequently, the four of them carried Yan Hao out of the city, but now only one carriage was left to return to Gangneung City.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of Jiangling City, the officers and soldiers at the gate recognized the four ancestors and grandchildren.

"Yo, didn't you just get out of the city, why did you come back?" The officer and soldier obviously asked knowingly, and there was still a bit of smugness on his face.

[I all know that the salt in Gangneung City can't get out, and I dare to take the salt away, I really deserve it. 】

Gu Wanchao heard the voice of the officer and soldier, and couldn't help but roll his eyes at the officer and soldier.

"Official, didn't you just leave the city and let the robbers rob the salt, we are about to report to the official." Gu traitor poked his head out and told him about being robbed.

Hearing this, the officers and soldiers did not speak again, and let the four people in.

After entering Jiangling City, the guards who stayed in the city sent back the money that Gu traitors had given them before, and Gu traitors and Li Yin left the carriage to Gu Wanchao and Xiao Yu'an, and the two went to the restaurant on foot.

Gu Wanchao and Xiao Yu'an drove a carriage to the prefect's mansion.

In front of the yamen, Xiao Yuan sounded the drum of injustice.

In the prefect's mansion, Wu Cheng, the prefect of Jiangling, didn't know how long he hadn't heard the drum of grievances, and when the master was busy running to say that someone was beating the drum of grievances, he was still a little late to react.

"What did you say?" Wu Cheng was in love with his concubine, and his master's words disturbed him without interest.

"Master, there are people beating the drum outside the mansion."

"Drum of grievances? It's been a long time since the drum of Gangneung City sounded, do you know who struck it? ”

Wu Cheng's concubine was helping him put on his official uniform, and he looked at his master and asked who was beating the drum of injustice.

"Two little children."

"What? Child?! Wu Cheng almost thought he had misheard.

"Yes, two little kids." This master has been with Wu Cheng for so many years.

This is the first time I have encountered two children beating a drum of grievances.

"Well, let's go check it out." After Wu Cheng put on his official uniform, he finally went to the court.

At this time, Gu Wanchao and Xiao Yu'an had already been brought to the court.

Those who are above the talent do not need to kneel down when they reach the public court, and after Xiao Yu'an arrived in the public court, he stood under the hall.

In order not to reveal his identity, Gu Wanchao knelt.

"Bold boy, you didn't kneel down when you got to the court?" The master naturally didn't think that Xiao Yu'an didn't have to kneel because he had won the champion, but he felt that Xiao Yu'an didn't give Wu Cheng face.

"Official, in his later life, he was born as a Jinshi, kneeling to the sky and kneeling to his parents, not to his local parents." Xiao Yu'an said that he was a jinshi.

Hearing this, Wu Cheng felt incredible, the fourteen or fifteen-year-old Jinshi, if he said that he was not a genius, no one would believe it.

You must know that Wu Cheng was in his twenties before he was admitted to the Jinshi, and when he was on the list, he was already not confused, this kid was young, and he was already a Jinshi......

"This ......" The master heard Xiao Yu'an say that he was born as a Jinshi, and he was speechless for a while.

"Why are you two complaining?" Wu Cheng gave his master a look, signaled him to shut up, and began the interrogation process.

"Lord Prefect, he was a merchant from the capital in his later life, and after he arrived in Gangneung City with his grandfather, a letter came from his family in the capital, saying that he should buy some salt and go back. No, this morning and evening, he and his grandfather and brother and sister went on the road with salt, but they were robbed by robbers in a valley. ”

Xiao Yu'an told the story of the salt robbed by the robbers this morning.

Hearing this, Wu Cheng's face changed for a moment, although it was fleeting, it was still captured by Xiao Yu'an.

"These two brothers and sisters are really naΓ―ve, who doesn't know that the mountain bandits in Gangneung City are rampant, and you still expect to report to the police to deal with it?"

Originally, it was two children who watched the grievances, but the crowd who came to watch lost interest when they heard that it was for the mountain bandits.

"After all, they came from other places, thinking that this prefect could support them. That's it, there's nothing to see, let's disperse. ”

In the crowd, I don't know who said this, and the onlookers slowly all walked away.

"Okay, the official knows, where do you two live now?"

After Wu Cheng asked about the specific situation, he asked where the two lived.

"Tongji Restaurant." Xiao Yu'an said the name of the restaurant where several people settled.

"Okay, you guys go back first, once there is news, this official will send someone to inform you." Wu Cheng asked someone to go back to the restaurant first.

Subsequently, Xiao Yu'an helped Gu Wanchao, who was kneeling on the ground, up and left the mansion.

"Are you alright?" Xiao Yu'an glanced at Gu Wanchao's legs, after all, he had been kneeling for so long, he was worried that Gu Wanchao's legs hurt, so he asked.

"It's okay, it's just that my knee hurts a little, so it's okay to slow down." Gu Wanchao rubbed his knees, and with Xiao Yu'an's support, he walked out of the mansion, got into the carriage and headed towards the restaurant.

"I shouldn't have let you come, I've been kneeling for so long in vain." Xiao Yu'an looked at Gu Wanchao's knee, and said coldly.

Hearing this, Gu Wanchao turned his head to look at Xiao Yu'an, and felt a little funny for a while, the boring young man back then is now a caring person.

"It's okay, when I was in the court, Wu Cheng heard that we went to report to the official because the salt was robbed, and his face was obviously wrong." Gu Wanchao changed the topic and talked about Wu Cheng.

"I found out, too, as if I thought it was to be expected that our salt had been robbed." Xiao Yu'an nodded and told Wu Cheng's reaction that he had just discovered.

At this time, Gu Traitor and Li Yin had also returned to the restaurant and informed the shopkeeper of the news that their salt had been robbed during the chat.

"I said when you left this morning, I'm afraid this salt won't go far, you see, isn't this a waste of money." The shopkeeper felt sorry for Gu traitors.

"Now it's like this, and we can't do anything about it, but my family urgently needs salt, so I have to buy salt and leave Gangneung City."

Gu Traitor expressed that he did not believe in evil.

"Are you still going to ship salt?" The shopkeeper couldn't believe it.

"Then what can I do, if I can't do it by land, I'll take the waterway, I can always take it out." Gu Traitor's chatting voice was not big, but it was not small, and almost everyone around him could hear it.

"You really persevere, good luck." The shopkeeper really admires Gu traitor's perseverance.

In the crowd, after listening to the conversation between Gu Traitor and the shopkeeper, the expression on his face was obviously different from others, and he left the restaurant after settling the account.
