Two days later, Yangzhou's largest green smoke, the fireworks building, was seized by the newcomer Li Zhizhou, and all the people inside were arrested and put into prison, filling the prison of Yangzhou Mansion.

After a busy night's work, it was not until early in the morning that it finally quieted down.

Yeats was not involved, but she did not sleep soundly, and got up early in the morning to wash up and ask, "Has the adult returned?" ”

Mingzhu replied, "Your Excellency just came back. ”

As soon as he washed up, Yeats ran to find Pei Jingning and found him standing in the corridor, looking at the east side of the sun: "My lord......" walked up to him lightly and stood with him to watch the sunrise.

In the eastern sky, as the stars faded, the gray sky slowly changed colors, from light gray to faint yellow, gradually squeezing out a gap near the horizon, and after a while, the gap became longer and wider, and at the same time brighter and brighter, and a few rays of light shot into the sky, and suddenly a golden arc broke through the morning light and rose from the horizon.

The sun is out!

The rooftops in the distance, the trees in the distance, and the streets in the distance, the frost layer on them shines in the sunlight, giving off a cold and beautiful glow.

"My lord—" Yeats asked softly, "didn't catch the man you were trying to catch?" ”

He is tall, with a cold white complexion, high eyebrows, deep eyes, a high nose plucked from the roots of the mountain, and when viewed from the side, the contours are extremely clear, and the curvature is perfect.

Looking up slightly to see the sunrise, the sun falls on both sides of the bridge of the nose, the eyebrows are sharp, sharp and cold, and there is a sense of alienation and indifference flowing around the body, making it difficult to approach.

Hearing Yeats's question, he withdrew his gaze, and at the same time retracted the sense of distance in his body, and the line of his eyebrow bone softened.

"Hmm." He said, "But the king has been caught, and you are going to starve him for a few days?" ”

Yeats said, "Today I will not be given food for a day, only water, and from tomorrow, one meal a day will be about five days, my lord, will it affect you to return to the capital?" ”

"Nope." Pei Jingning said, "The new prefect of Yangzhou took office, and no one handed over to him, and I sat here, just right." ”

Maybe! Yeats knew that a party official who could be appointed by the emperor himself couldn't handle it, and Pei Jingning's words just made her feel at ease.

The mansion full of people was as noisy as the vegetable market, and Yeats and others simply went to the teahouse outside to hide quietly. Unexpectedly, my ears were full of news that the newly appointed governor would charge a fee to release people.

Teng Chong shook his head, "It's all the same." ”

Zhang Jin exclaimed: "Our lord is still in the mansion, Lord Li dares to be so blatant?" ”

Qin Dachuan looked insensitive to seeing all the things in the world.

Yeats pondered for a moment and sighed, "Perhaps, it was acquiesced from above!" ”

"......" Several people looked at Yeats in unison, could it be Master Pei?

Yeats hurriedly waved his hand, "He is also doing things for the top." ”

Oh, everyone suddenly realized, it turned out that the one was referring to?

Yang Fuquan was the youngest and had never experienced the world, so he asked puzzledly, "Then Li Zhizhou is no different from Lu Zhizhou, what's the point of this official change?" ”

Yeats smiled indifferently, "Of course there is!" ”

In other words, it is the corrupt officials who are clear, and the pockets of those who are drummed, and how can the treasury that was squandered by the first emperor be quickly filled after five years on the throne, I am afraid that it can only be used in this way.

But is this a long-term solution? If the Great Wei Dynasty had been enriching the treasury with the methods of corrupt officials and enriching money, would it still be able to develop?

Yeats smelled of decay.
