I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

As Li Yanyu continued to turn the pages of the drawing paper, everyone's eyes lit up.

Li Yanyu nodded proudly. "Hehe! Just watch! This is a new trick I just learned from a book I read last year. I guarantee it's the first of its kind!"

Even Jiang Yuan couldn't help nodding his head. This old man's claim to be the number one painter of the Zhao Dynasty was not an exaggeration. Although each painting only had a few strokes, as he flipped the pages, he turned the static pictures into a dynamic movie.

To be frank, if this thing had some automatic rotating shaft or something like that, it would be comparable to a black and white TV.

But after all, I learned this from my own books. Although some of those books are not up to standard, there are still a few miscellaneous books that seriously write some simple scientific and technological knowledge into them.

To put it bluntly, if anyone can truly understand it, it will at least allow technological development to leapfrog by two hundred years, and this is still a conservative start.

As the drawing paper flipped faster and faster, a picture seemed to appear in front of Jiang Yuan's eyes.

The Zhao Dynasty lasted 213 years.

"Impossible! I must investigate this matter!"

In the picture, Jiang Qiao, who is about thirty years old, looks at the man in front of him with great determination.

"You! Alas, we can't afford to offend the Yang family, wake up!" The man was a little angry.

But the result is predictable. Jiang Qiao did not follow the man's advice, but chose to continue the investigation with several colleagues.

The scene changed. A few months later, Jiang Qiao was about to go to the imperial capital to meet the emperor, carrying various evidences of crimes he had investigated, such as smuggling salt, trafficking in human beings, and exploiting the people, but he was greeted with a document.

He was dismissed from his post. At the same time, that night, several assassins sneaked into the mansion to kill and silence the witnesses. Fortunately, Jiang Qiao took the young Jiang Yuan away in advance.

After an unknown amount of time, a small border town appeared in front of Jiang Qiao. He wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"We're here. This should be Brother Li's hometown."

Soon, Li Canglan came riding on the wind and took the two of them into the city.

"Don't worry, with my skills, I can definitely put this evidence in the emperor's study!" Li Canglan said, patting his chest.

"Come on, I'll take you to find a place to stay. I happen to have an empty house."

Half a month later, after everyone had settled down, it started to rain heavily at night.

An old man with a hunched back holding a child carefully knocked on the door of Jiang Qiao's house.

"Master Jiang!"

Jiang Qiao smiled casually: "Old man, I am not an adult anymore."

The old man suddenly handed the child to Jiang Qiao, then knelt solemnly on the ground: "Master Jiang, this is my master's child."

"What? Your parents?" Jiang Qiao was obviously confused.

"Lord Jiang, my master is Wang Jun." The old man spoke again.

Jiang Qiao's expression froze. Wang Jun was a high-ranking official of the dynasty. It was he who led Jiang Qiao and his group to overthrow aristocratic families such as the Yang family.

"Could it be that even Lord Wang..."

The old man took a deep breath and nodded bitterly: "Traitors are in power. My master has been dismissed from his post, but the Yang family refuses to give up and has sent many people to eliminate future troubles."

"To be on the safe side, my master asked me to take the young master away first, while he delayed time on the official road."

Hearing this, Jiang Qiao quickly lowered his head to look at the child in his arms, frowning slightly: "This child, why..."

"Sir, we were chased all the way and had no food. The young master accidentally ate something in the forest and has been unconscious ever since. However, his body is abnormally hot. Please find a doctor to see him. I am going to find my master now."

"Please, sir, take good care of the young master for me!"

After saying this, the old man turned around and left resolutely.

Jiang Qiao hurriedly asked the housekeeper to call a doctor, but the doctor just shook his head helplessly and left.

In the blink of an eye, three days later, the child opened his eyes, which was different from that of a normal child.

At the same time, Li Canglan came to Jiang Qiao's house anxiously: "Hurry up, a group of people of unknown origin have entered the city."

Jiang Qiao sighed: "There's no way to hide anymore. I'm already satisfied as long as my two children can survive."

"Brother Li, please help me take good care of my two children!"

Not long after, a group of people rushed into the house and took Jiang Qiao away.

Jiang Qiao was eventually escorted all the way to the imperial capital, and the scene ended abruptly.

Jiang Yuan turned his head and looked at Wang Gang beside him. This should be the child in the old man's arms.

This is the son of a first-rank official. After all this trouble, he is the real master!

Moreover, the reason why Wang Gang has abnormal physical condition is probably because of eating that thing. This is really a blessing in disguise.

"Then, grandpa, what's going on with you? They can't catch you too, right?" Li Hu looked at Li Canglan in disbelief. Could anyone catch him?

Li Canglan sneered and shook his head: "Of course not, this is what happened."

"But Jiang Qiao was captured, and I was worried, so I followed him all the way to the imperial capital. The Yang family wanted to force Jiang Qiao to hand over the evidence they had collected."

"Of course, I had to torture him, so I sneaked in at night, got the evidence, copied two copies and placed them on Yang Cheng's desk, and left him a message."

"If Jiang Qiao is harmed again, I will immediately spread all the evidence."

Jiang Qiao smiled and nodded, then continued, "Later, the Yang family had no choice but to imprison me. Although I was allowed to move freely within the prison, they would never let me out."

It was not until this moment that Jiang Yuan finally understood. No wonder the cell door could be opened, but Jiang Qiao and others refused to leave.

"That's not right. Yang Cheng only wanted to imprison my father. How did so many of you get in?" Jiang Yuan came back to his senses and looked at Li Yanyu and others in confusion.

"hey-hey!"

Li Yanyu smiled awkwardly: "This is a long story."

"All in all, we came here voluntarily."

"What the hell?" Jiang Yuan suspected that he had heard it wrong. Is there anyone in the world who would voluntarily go to jail?

Li Yanyu nodded seriously: "Yes, at first we just came here to visit, but after arriving, we found that Jiang Qiao didn't suffer at all in this cell."

"Besides, this place provides food and accommodation, and you don't have to do any corvée labor. Most importantly, you don't have to spend any money to get here!"

"Tell me, is there any better place in the world than this?"

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a long time before he calmed down: "So, so you came in too?"

"Wrong!" Li Yanyu shook her head and pointed at the large group of people behind her: "I told them the news, and a group of us came in!"

Jiang Yuan opened his mouth, and those words echoed in his mind.

Orcs will never be slaves unless they have food and shelter!
