On the second day, Wen Xi went to Zhang's house to deliver a message, but after waiting for a day, he didn't see anyone from Zhang's family to answer it, if it wasn't for Wen Xi's personal letter, Xiang Jiuling would have wondered if the message was not conveyed in place.

Governor Wang was also surprised by this, so he wanted to go to Zhang's house in person, but his leg injury was serious, and Wen Xi could only accompany him on another trip.

This toss was already on the morning of the third day, Wen Xi took the Wang Governor's Mansion to Zhang's house, but was stopped by the guards guarding the door.

"Who are you, and who are you looking for here?"

Because the clothes of the Wang Governor's Mansion were torn, Xiang Jiuling found Wen Xi's clothes for him to wear, and now the two guards saw that the Wang Governor's Mansion and Wen Xi were wearing so plainly, and they all had a little disgust on their faces.

"This little brother, I am the prefect of Lin Jincheng, and I made an appointment with Master Zhang to get food, but I didn't know that there was an accident on the road and I came two days late, I don't know if I can help pass it on!"

The capital is full of dignitaries and nobles, and the Zhang family is the first person to sell grain in the capital.

Obviously, this low tone did not make the guards feel respected, but rather more disdainful.

"Heh, you say it's the prefect or the prefect? What about your paperwork? You don't look like you're a prefect, we've seen a lot of people like this! ”

There is an endless stream of people who come to Zhang's house every day, either to ask for money or to ask for food, they have seen a lot of all kinds of people, and they are even more familiar with all kinds of big officials in the capital, and they are also soft-spoken to their masters, but a small prefect, even if it is true, they don't have to care.

"I ...... I'm in a hurry here, I don't have anything on me, as long as I pass it on to Master Zhang, he will definitely know! ”

Looking at the obvious unbelieving appearance of the two, Governor Wang couldn't help but be a little anxious, he finally persuaded Master Zhang to send food to Lin Jincheng for free, if he couldn't get it back before the end of the year, what should the displaced people and people in the city do?

"Our master has already gone out, and I don't know when he will come back, since you can't get anything, let's go quickly, don't get in the way here!"

"You...... You ......"

Seeing that a guard actually used such an attitude towards him, the prefect Wang was also angry.

"I, I, I...... What's wrong with me? I said, our lord has already gone out, if you are really the prefect, just wait for our lord to come back! ”

When the two guards saw the angry and stammering appearance of the prefect's mansion, they were out of breath with laughter, and they laughed a few times with a look of showing off their might.

Wen Xi was used to seeing this kind of person who looked down on people with dog's eyes, so he hurriedly grabbed the angry Wang Governor's Mansion, not wanting to have a conflict here, otherwise the two of them would suffer.

"Lord Wang, don't be impulsive, don't worry about them, let's go back and think of a way first!"

Seeing the smug and disdainful looks of the two guards, the Wang Governor's Mansion also understood that the door of this Zhang family might not be able to enter today, but it was not good to spend it at this door, after all, many people had already looked at them.

"Hey!"

With a heavy sigh, the prefect Wang could only follow Wen Xi to go back first and then find a way.

When Xiang Jiuling came back, she was not surprised to see the listless Wang Governor's Mansion, she had already thought of this result yesterday, after all, the Wang Governor's Mansion now has no evidence, and it is very likely that she will touch a nail when she goes to Zhang's house, and the result is as expected.

"No, I can't sit still, I'll sit at the door of Zhang's house and wait!"

Wang Zhifu couldn't sit still at all, and as soon as he saw Xiang Jiuling coming back, he wanted to go to Zhang's house again.

"Lord Wang, don't be impulsive, it's normal that the guards at the door don't know you, even if you go now, it won't help, they won't let you in at all, and Master Zhang doesn't know when he will come back, the weather outside is so cold, your body will definitely not be able to stand it!"

Wen Xi had already seen the situation clearly, either the two guards of the Zhang family looked down on people, or Master Zhang wanted to deliberately avoid him because he wanted to pay the bill, anyway, no matter what the reason, it was probably not so easy to see Master Zhang now.

"Hey, how can I not be in a hurry, my body is already fine, but there are still so many displaced people waiting for this batch of food in Lin Jincheng, if I can't bring the food back, I don't know how many people will die!"

Although I don't know if what the prefect said is true or not, but looking at his anxious appearance, I can see that he should be a good official for the people, and Xiang Jiuling's family is also a homeless person fleeing the famine, so they naturally know the pain and the importance of meeting a good official, and they are also full of emotion in their hearts for a while.

However, they don't know what the situation of the Zhang family is now, and it is unknown whether they can get this grain or not, what should they do?

"Lord Wang, don't worry, we all know that you are a good official for the people, but I am afraid that you will not be able to solve this food matter if you go to Master Zhang now, so it is better to think about it in the long run!"

As soon as he heard this, Wang Zhifu unconsciously raised his head to look at Xiang Jiuling, and saw that her eyes were clear and bright, like a girl with ideas, and she also had a life-saving grace for him, so he immediately calmed down and asked, "What do you mean by this, girl?" ”

Seeing that Governor Wang's Mansion had calmed down, Xiang Jiuling relaxed a little and said slowly, "Lord Wang, the most important thing now is to find out Master Zhang's attitude, to see if he still recognizes the food promised to you at the beginning, if he admits it, it will naturally be easy to do, but if he doesn't recognize it......"

"How can I do that, Master Zhang wrote me a basis at the beginning, but unfortunately my things are all on my entourage, and now ...... Ay! ”

Wang Zhifu is also a smart person, and he was poked by Xiang Jiuling's words on the most important point, and quickly figured out the essence of the matter, if he could get the basis, it would be the best, but it was a pity......

Hearing that there was actually a basis, Xiang Jiuling's eyes couldn't help but light up, "Don't worry, since you have set up a note, it will be easy to do, but you still have to figure out what Master Zhang means first, if it can go well, of course it is the best, if it doesn't go well, we can only use extraordinary means!" ”

Hearing that "extraordinary means", Wang Zhifu couldn't help but be stunned, seeing the sly light in Xiang Jiuling's eyes, he wanted to refuse but stuck in his throat and couldn't say it, if he refused, Lin Jincheng's homeless people would definitely not survive this winter.

Gritting his teeth, the prefect of the king secretly decided in his heart that as long as he could get food to save so many people, he could bear any kind of consequences, and it was a big deal to lose this prefect.

"Girl, you say, I will do my best to help if I can do it!"

As soon as these words came out, Xiang Jiuling smiled, in fact, Xiang Jiuling said this is also testing the prefect of Wang, although she saved him, but her understanding of him is only in words, now you can finally rest assured, prefect Wang is a good official!
