Surprise! I emptied the emperor's private treasury before exile
Chapter 84 Acting
The woman was really scared and shouted with all her might: "The young lady is still alive. The young lady was stolen by the son-in-law."
he tui——
Chu Ci didn't care about his image, he spat on the spot, and couldn't help cursing: "You bastard, you are an accomplice and you are still an innocent person?"
If Chu Ci had some natural affection for her because they were both women and she was holding a baby girl, then now, this affection has disappeared.
"Grandpa, lock him up. Let Xiaowu interrogate him slowly. As for that poor lady, if she is really dead, we will avenge her." Chu Ci said this with murderous intent.
The woman was really scared. "My servant Xiao Cui, my son-in-law is the nephew of the governor of Lianzhou."
I thought he was some big shot, but it turns out he’s just the nephew of the Lianzhou governor?
Chu Ci couldn't help but roll his eyes, looking around.
Finally, he found a rag that had fallen into the flower bed and stuffed it into Xiao Cui's mouth. Just as he was about to ask Xiao Wu to take the person away, he found that Xiao Wu had not returned yet.
Xiaowu shouldn’t be so slow in going to find someone?
Chu Ci turned to look at the calm Chu Patriarch, who nodded. "Ah Ci guessed right, someone doesn't want us to go."
"Then grandpa, should we wait for the other party to make a move, or should we rush over now?" After getting the affirmation from the head of the Chu family, Chu Ci turned his eyes and asked.
"What does Ah Ci want to do?" Since the other party has already made a move, there is no way he doesn't have a back-up plan. The chances of arriving at the government office safely today are slim, so the head of the Chu family let Chu Ci do whatever he wants.
“Grandpa, let’s do this…” Chu Ci pulled the head of the Chu family and whispered to him.
The more Patriarch Chu listened, the brighter his eyes became, and in the end he even laughed out loud.
But he felt that laughing like this would damage his image, so the head of the Chu family quickly coughed and said, "Aci's idea is very good."
At the gate of the government office, the governor Yang Dashuan confirmed that the plague in Lianzhou had been eradicated. The grandfather and grandson of the Chu family would also teach how to grow potatoes in front of the government office, so they hurried back.
And as soon as he came back, he took over all matters from Zhang Yaoyang by using both soft and hard tactics.
That morning, he was waiting at the gate of the government office before dawn.
People who don’t know the truth may think that Governor Yang loves his people like his own children!
In fact, some people were secretly allowed to infiltrate the people and spread some innuendos.
Comments such as "Why haven't the Chu family come yet?" "Did they change their mind at the last minute?" "I heard that the Chu family's potatoes were stolen."
This caused panic among the people who arrived.
The time for the announcement had come, but the people didn't even see the shadow of the Chu family.
Ma Ming sent people to the house several times to inform them, but none of them responded. His heart sank to the bottom.
Just when Ma Ming thought that his master was going to be plotted against by the old man Yang Dashuan again, Chu Ci suddenly appeared. She was covered in dust, her face was covered in blood, and she ran towards them in fear.
"Master Zhang, help us! Someone wants to kill us. Grandpa and great-grandfather have been captured by them!"
"What about the potatoes? Are the potatoes still there?" Zhang Yaoyang is worthy of being Zhang Yaoyang. Although it was not intentional, this assist was quite clever.
Chu Ci seemed to be hurt by Zhang Yaoyang's words and was slightly stunned. "All the potatoes in the yard have been taken away. It will take at least half a month to transport them again."
After saying that, Chu Ci knelt down in front of Zhang Yaoyang and said, "Master Zhang, please save my two grandfathers. Without my two grandfathers, who else can teach the people how to grow potatoes?"
Chu Ci, even though she looked so miserable crying, she was actually muttering in her heart: I knelt too hard just now, my knees hurt. I won't do this again next time!
Before, most people had turned a blind eye to the matter, but now when they heard that the high-yield crops they had been talking about were gone, they all became anxious.
"Sir, this murderer is extremely vicious and must be investigated thoroughly!" Under the leadership of Chu Ci, except for the person arranged by Governor Yang to lead the charge, all the others knelt down towards Zhang Yaoyang.
When Governor Yang saw this, he gnashed his teeth in hatred towards Chu Ci and was about to gesture to the people in the crowd to set the pace and guide public opinion.
But then he saw a group of law enforcement officers in royal uniforms armed with swords rushing forward like wolves and tigers, taking away all his men without leaving a single one alive.
The Jinyi Law Enforcement Officers are under the emperor’s command. Where did these people come from?
Could it be that the emperor knew all the things he had done before? For a moment, Yang Dashuan was scared to death.
The master beside him saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly reminded him: "My lord, don't forget that the potatoes have been transported to Kyoto early in the morning. It is not uncommon for Jinyi law enforcement officers to appear here."
Hearing this, Governor Yang quickly gathered his thoughts and said, "Yes, the potatoes were presented to the emperor by me. The Jinyi Law Enforcement's action was just an accident."
Governor Yang calmed himself down, stood up, cleared his throat, and then planned to repeat his old trick.
At the command of the purple-robed emissary in the dark, Liu Ping led a group of people who were defrauded by the "Holy Mother Church" and rushed over with a woman in a plain dress. "Sir, please help us!"
The woman in the plain dress was none other than his contact person with the "Holy Mother Church". His uneasiness grew stronger.
But under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Yang Dashuan could only pretend not to know him. "Who is the person kneeling? What do you need me to do for you?"
"Commoner Liu Ping." "Commoner Wang Er" "Commoner Niu Wu"...
More than a dozen people introduced themselves one by one, and then said in unison: "We want to sue this 'Holy Mother Church' guardian Yingniang for defrauding people with fake medicine."
At this time, the people who followed Chu Ci and knelt beside Zhang Yaoyang looked at each other. Did they kneel to the wrong person? What should they do?
Even Chu Ci was somewhat confused. When did the Jinyi Law Enforcement come? What was their purpose in performing this act?
Thinking of this, Chu Ci hurriedly looked around, and sure enough, he saw Fan Jingrui and the Fifth Prince around the corner.
When Fan Jingrui saw Chu Ci looking at him, he quickly pointed to the sky and then to Zhang Yaoyang, who also had a confused look on his face.
It turns out that the Jinyi Law Enforcement came for Zhang Yaoyang. Unexpectedly, this silly guy has a high status in Xing Situ's heart? This is a good relationship.
Then she can watch the show with peace of mind.
Thinking of this, Chu Ci no longer pretended to be weak, wiped the chicken blood off his face, and climbed up. This action made the people around him stunned.
But they are just ordinary people, and their biggest wish in life is to fill their stomachs.
They could only pretend not to see it, and some smart people were even quietly retreating.
