Chapter 54: The Bright Moon
The city lord has never understood why a Shen Qianxue appeared out of thin air this time. Didn't the news from them in the capital say that Shen Qianxue still had one in the capital?
And when he arrived in Suizhou City to see His Royal Highness the Prince, Shen Qianfeng said in front of the city lord that the medicine for the plague had been developed. There are only a few days to roll it out. In this way, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will have time to thoroughly investigate other matters.
As for what the other things are? Of course, where did the money that the imperial court put into the construction of the flood control levee go, and he also went to see that the embankment after the flood was simply a tofu scum project.
The next day, Shen Qianfeng took the guards to inspect the time when the impairment was angry, and in the previous life, it was even corruption. No one dares to touch this kind of money, and if it is found out, it will cause harm to the family.
Throwing away the things in his hand, he beckoned the guards back to the City Lord's Mansion. The staff who were arranged to follow Shen Qianfeng kept sighing: "Miss Shen, these officials are all black-hearted. After saying that, he didn't want to say a word, and Shen Qianfeng immediately realized that this person had something to say to himself.
Today, it was Mo Xiaoci who was by his side and gave him a look. Mo Xiaoci disappeared into the ranks of guards with a single dodge. Without her own protection, she believes that her sister-in-law will definitely be able to protect herself.
In a teahouse, it has been cleaned up by the Secret Guards. And the person who had been monitoring Shen Qianfeng was killed by Mo Xiaoxi's sword after running a few hundred meters. This is a complete lesson for those who follow. If those people still don't give up, then everyone thinks that the third prince will directly take people to prison. There's no need to wait for enough evidence to act.
The staff looked at the girl sitting opposite him, and his heart was still trembling. The hand holding the teacup was still trembling, as if there was an irresistible nobility in the girl opposite.
"Are you afraid of me?"
The staff calmed down and said, "Hehe, of course not." ”
Good at observing people's hearts, this is the only skill that Shen Qianfeng learned in his previous life that he didn't like. So she was already sure that this man had something to do with her. The man suddenly took out a dagger from his body.
Xiaohua's eyes shouted suddenly: "What are you going to do?" was about to rush out, but was stopped by Shen Qianfeng's indifferent eyes.
The staff member is a middle-aged uncle in his forties, and even if he does anything, he will not be so public. I saw the staff lift their thighs, and then slammed a big word on their thighs, and when the blood was splashed, the staff went directly under the knife edge they had cut and deducted a small jade pendant.
After wiping it clean with his own clothes, his right hand was sent to Shen Qianfeng.
"This, this is the evidence of the city lord's corruption and governance of the river and silver for so many years. ”
Xiaohua hurriedly stepped forward to take the jade pendant, and then handed him a small bottle: "Treat the wound cleanly." ”
The staff uncle's sore hands were shaking, and Xiaohua finally sighed and stepped forward to give the medicine herself. When I was about to tear my uncle's clothes and bandage the wound. Shen Qianfeng walked over, and he didn't know when he took out the bandage to treat the wound and handed it to Xiaohua.
After the wound was bandaged, the staff felt as if their legs had fully regained their strength. When I stood up and walked, I didn't see anything wrong with it as I did on weekdays.
"Where's the thing?",
The things have been sent out, can you still hide where the things are placed? The staff finally felt relieved at this moment, and seeing the slightest difference in the eyes of the staff made Shen Qianfeng's excited heart instantly cool by half. Could it be that he wronged the lord of the castle?
returned to the City Lord's Mansion and saw Jiang Qi, who had just returned from outside. greeted him with a smile, but when he saw that the city lord was also there, he directly dragged Jiang Qi away. came to his room, and let Xiaohua guard it well.
After the two arrived at the room, Shen Qianfeng took out five or six ledgers from the storage bag and put them on the table. Jiang Qi looked a little strange and asked, "What is this?"
I opened the two books, looked at them, and then said in surprise: "This is the account book of Jiangnan Mansion to build the river embankment over the years?
"Is it the staff, is it the middle-aged uncle who followed me to see the riverbank today?" Although he handed over the account book to Jiang Qi. But he was still skeptical about the authenticity of the ledger.
Jiang Qi sat on the chair next to the table and lightly clasped the table with his fingers. After a long time, he slowly spoke: "Whether this account book is true or not, we have to check it." "He knew that he couldn't let people lead him by the nose. But on the day I arrived in Suizhou City, there was still no progress in the river corruption case.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left Suizhou City in the morning and rushed to the most remote town in Jiangnan Province. It was the hardest hit place in the whole of Gangnam.
The plague was rampant there, and he had already gone over with a new prescription that Situ Yue had only adjusted. But time is too late, there is already a riot over there, and if it is not dealt with, it will definitely turn into a more important incident.
"It's so serious? It's not that the people have nothing to eat, and there is a riot. ”
Jiang Qi said: "I don't know the specific situation, and the situation over there won't be transmitted until tonight at the earliest." If the problem is serious, I have to take the troops there. Although Cannes, is what an important strategic base. After all, it is one of the four major concentrations of medicinal herbs in the empire, and Cannes can't mess with it anyway. ”
Shen Qianfeng's heart suddenly skipped half a beat, in his memory. Those ancient rulers, to the people who rioted. Indiscriminately will be killed on the spot.
Holding the man's hand, he could probably say: "The life of the people is not easy, I hope that Brother Qi can be relieved." Facing the emperor's people, give them a chance to change their ways. ”
"Don't worry, I have a scale in my heart. On the one hand, there is the design of the country, and on the other hand, there is the people's heart. The man's smiling face looked at Shen Qianfeng's head a little dizzy.
He muttered softly, "It's beautiful!"
A Tongling-like laugh came from outside the door, filled with a hint of mockery. It was just a hint of mockery, when the two of them came back to their senses. I saw Mo Xiaoci, who was dressed in fiery red, standing outside the door.
Mo Xiaoci crossed his hands on his hips, and a smile of need appeared on his face: "Sister-in-law, my senior brother is originally the most beautiful man in the world. But he's not my cup of tea, otherwise how would there be your chance. ”
In fact, Mo Xiaoxi didn't know why he said these words just now. Seeing the two standing together like such a match, they are like the golden boy and girl in myths and legends. It seemed so harmonious and beautiful, which made her feel a little jealous.
Just now, the question about the ledger provided by the staff uncle is true or false. If the power of the government is used to investigate, it will definitely have little effect. Now this big girl in the world villa is standing in front of her. Shen Qianfeng suddenly realized and pulled him in with a smile. Then he sent the three ledgers to Mo Xiaoxi.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean?"
"Hey, hey, look, little raccoon. I have been following your senior brother for so long to eat and drink for nothing, and let me teach you the method of cultivating immortals. Isn't it time to do something in return. Shen Qianfeng smiled evilly, just staring at Mo Xiaoci like that. I stared at her, a little embarrassed.
The eldest lady, who usually doesn't care about it, finally nodded, but there was one question that she couldn't figure out. So he asked without any hidden thoughts: "How do you know that I can find out these things?"
"You told me?"
"I told you!" Mo Xiaoxi was about to burst his head, and he didn't think of what kind of flaws he revealed.
Since Mo Xiaoci, when he was ten years old, he showed an extraordinary talent for business. This talent was known only to her old father, Mr. Moda.
Now all over the Qingyuan Empire, the real person in charge of Tianxia Villa is not Mr. Moda. It's the daughter of Mr. Mo, Miss Mo.
She pointed to a piece of jade pendant that Mo Xiaolin was carrying: "If you are not mistaken, this thing should be the order of the master of the Tianxia Mountain Villa, right?"
Jiang Qi's eyes were about to pop out, because he knew the Zhuang master's order. This is an accessory that the master has always hung on his body when he was a child.
The identity was discovered, and Mo Xiaoxi did not feel the slightest guilt. Back then, my father once wanted to pass on the owner's order to his senior brother. The condition for the introduction was to let the senior brother take him as his wife, and he openly refused to marry at the beginning.
Shen Qianfeng's eyes were as bright as stars: "I want to know why Brother Qi refused to marry back then." ”
The man was found to have caught a sore foot and wanted to avoid the fiery gaze of the two.
"Oh, there's still some things I haven't done. I'll talk about it in the evening. ”
Looking at the man's escape pace, Shen Qianfeng couldn't cry or laugh. After teasing him, Mo Xiaoxi took away three account books. After finding out the problem, someone will be sent to find out.
It was only half an hour later that Mo Xiaoci broke in again. Chasing Shen Qianfeng, I want to accompany her with my senior brother tonight to enjoy the moon.
What does it mean to admire the moon?
A smile appeared at the corner of Mo Xiaoxi's mouth, and he said to Shen Qianfeng: "Senior brother said that he wanted to surprise you, what is this mood?" She shook her head desperately: "I really don't know!"
In the dimly lit secret room, the candle flame flickered constantly. Obviously, this secret room is very ventilated, and people will not feel suffocated here.
The city lord looked at the black man kneeling on the ground with an angry look on his face. A book in his hand suddenly came out of his hand and hit the black man who was kneeling on the ground.
The man in black didn't dare to dodge, if he did. It's just a head on the ground.
With a snap, a bloody mark was deeply smashed on his forehead.
"The subordinates are incompetent and didn't keep up! That is for sure, the secret guard who came out of the courtyard of the second miss of the Shen family. From Tianxia Mountain Villa?"
As soon as the four words of Tianxia Villa came out, the city lord gradually raised his head. The voice was as cold as iron: "What about the Tianxia Mountain Villa, the master has raised you for so many years." Even if you meet a hermit family, you can't be so defeated. ”
The man in black felt uncomfortable, if he really met a monk from the hermit family. It is estimated that he could not have knelt here now. Listen to you, the old immortal, reprimanding yourself.
In the end, the city lord still took a breath, swallowed the grievances in his heart, and said, "Go down, tell those people in Suizhou City, let them stop everything first." If someone can't help me, just kill me. You can't let a rat poop hurt a pot of porridge. ”
The man in black nodded and stood up and stepped out.
The city lord showed a fierce gaze, but fortunately, the alchemist named Situ Yue was unable to refine the pill at all. Once the plague is completely eradicated, it is a sign that their end is imminent.
The bright moonlight sprinkled on the earth. The silver light shrouded in haze, more than two months of Suizhou City. Regain youthful energy.
Under the willow tree in the small courtyard, there is a bamboo table and three bamboo chairs. There are two or three small dishes on the main table, and a small charcoal stove is placed in the center of the table.
I walked on the road for more than a month, although this is Jiangnan, but the evening breeze is still very cold.
The smell of fragrant wine came from the small pot on the charcoal stove. Although the lid of the flask was not opened, Jiang Qi could already smell it, what kind of wine was this?
"It's a thousand mountains and snow! This is a good thing that has been lost for hundreds of years!"
Mo Xiaoxi jumped up from his seat all of a sudden, and I was about to take the wine jug out of the cauldron. Her paw was slapped off by her senior brother, and her voice was stern: "Stop, stupid girl who doesn't know anything! Otherwise the taste will change!"
Shen Qianfeng sat on the side in an unfathomable manner, like a brother and sister arguing. couldn't help laughing: "Brother Qi is Brother Qi, and he knows these things like this." But in the twilight of these thousand mountains, there is one thing you didn't say right. ”
Jiang Qi's heart chuckled, but he couldn't lose face in front of his own little Feng'er. So he sincerely asked: "What other special effects does this world-famous wine have?"
Of course, the Thousand Mountains Twilight Snow has a special effect, if it is not handled well before drinking. The consequences were not ordinarily serious, and they waited until Shen Qianfeng's words were finished.
The two of them just broke out in a cold sweat.
"But you two don't have to worry. Shen Qianfeng swept the two of them, and then explained: "Both of you have left the mortal womb and embarked on the path of cultivating immortals. The cold poison of the ordinary mortal world is of no use to you. But even if it doesn't work, it will disturb your internal organs for a while. ”
At this time, a faint white mist emanates from the surroundings of the flask. Shen Qianfeng smiled and said, "Okay!" Reaching out and taking out the wine jug, he waved his hand lightly on the table. Two small, translucent wine glasses appeared on the table.
"Sister-in-law, you can't pick the door like this!"
Slamming the door, Shen Qianfeng's face turned dark: "The two of you can only drink a small cup of cultivation." If you drink too much, your whole body will be stiff and frozen into ice cubes. ”
