The ring connects the past and present, the exiled prince worships me as a god

"Not only are you robbing openly, you're also taking advantage of others' misfortune." Jiang Zhi was furious.

If Your Highness is willing to write a letter to the person in the palace, he will definitely get rid of the skin of the Huaicun County Magistrate.

"Hey, isn't what this young man said harshly?" The magistrate parted his lips to reveal a mouthful of yellow teeth, but the smile did not reach his eyes, which were filled with layers of frost.

"No wonder you and your servant were exiled. Like master, like servant. Back in the Imperial Capital, even when your master was silent, you, the servant, barked... Ah!"

As the magistrate finished speaking, he felt a pain on the roof of his mouth and spat out a stone.

He was so angry that his face turned blue. "Who is it? Who dares to murder an official appointed by the imperial court?"

"Mr. Magistrate." When Qi Yu's slow voice sounded, the magistrate was still blowing his nose and glaring, looking for someone. Seeing Qi Yu's cold face and sharp eyes that seemed to shoot through him, he gasped and calmed down. "Do you agree to exchange more food?"

"Okay." Qi Yu's face was calm. The gods were reasonable and would definitely give it to him.

but……

"I want to see the water from the village chief's house first!"

It's not a discussion, it's an order.

The magistrate was intimidated by the powerful aura emanating from him.

A moment later, the magistrate personally brought Qi Yu and his servant into Huai Village.

The exiles could not leave the place of exile, but the magistrate of Huaicun personally took them away, and no one could say no.

"Brother, can't the master and servant take this opportunity to run away?"

The yamen runner stared at the receding figures of the men, his heart beating fast.

He had just donated his only ten taels of silver.

Although the eldest brother gave him a priceless pearl and the pearl did disappear, the ten taels of silver were still in Qi Yu's arms. He saw him hiding it with his own eyes, and he was afraid that they would run away with the money.

"No, don't worry."

Zhao Li was a little annoyed.

He grew up in the capital and had been a yamen runner for many years, so he had experienced everything.

From the moment he asked Qi Yu to deliver the grain to the county magistrate and Qi Yu's leisurely and confident look, he began to realize that something was wrong.

Qi Yu also took the initiative to propose going to the village chief's house, and he guessed Qi Yu's plan.

"Just wait, it won't be long before we have not only food but also water to drink."

He knew that Qi Yu would come back and might retaliate for his previous tit-for-tat, but as long as everyone had food to eat and water to drink, he had nothing to fear. He just felt that the master and servant had other plans.

Well, it’s fine as long as they are not implicated.

If that kid harmed him, he would just slash him with a knife like he did just now. God knows how scared he was when that arm flew out just now.

……

After returning to the villa, Song Nian immediately checked all the doors and windows and changed the door lock password.

It wasn't that she was too cautious, or that Li Lin had abducted her in broad daylight to take the blame for Song Lai. She was just being cautious, just in case.

After doing all this, she remembered the 'talking' printer and hurried to the study.

"Thank you for your concern, Qi Yu is fine."

"The magistrate of Huai Village led people to seize food and asked the villagers to disguise themselves as refugees to cause trouble. Why did they pretend to be refugees when there was no food in Lingnan? There is something wrong with the villagers of Huai Village. To prevent a scam, Qi Yu plans to investigate personally."

"Could you please ask God for a favor?"

Song Nian breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the paper that Qi Yu had passed over from a thousand years ago.

Her 'pen pal' is not dead, that's great.

How could he help?

Song Nian continued to read, unconsciously curling his lips, and finally burst out laughing.

Looking at the 'action plan' sent by Qi Yu, Song Nian sighed: The prince is worthy of being the prince, he has a good mind.

But if he was so resourceful, why was he schemed into exile?

Song Nian wanted to ask for clarification, but she knew now was not the right time. Following Qi Yu's instructions, she placed an online order for 100 kilograms of noodles and 100 kilograms of rice, adding a hefty delivery fee. She waited for the delivery. Then, she waited for Qi Yu's order to deliver the goods.

Huai Village.

The village chief's house.

The doorman came hurriedly to report that the magistrate had arrived with two extraordinary and brave men.

The village chief, who was sipping tea, suddenly had his hands shaken and the teacup fell heavily on the table.

"I sent someone to ask the county magistrate to come over to find out where the food came from and how the county magistrate brought people here."

The servant hunched over, cautiously guessing, "Could it be that the magistrate couldn't make up his mind either, so he brought people to you?"

Now everyone knows that their village chief is a great contributor to the entire Huai Village and even to the area within a hundred miles.

Only their village chief can get water. Not to mention the county magistrate, even the prefect has to be polite to the village chief.

"But our secret cannot be spread!"

The village chief's face darkened. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed and angry he became.

"Is it the exiled prince who came here?"

"I heard so," the servant said, "but since he's been exiled, he's no longer a noble. Coming to Huai Village, it's uncertain whether he'll be able to return alive. I think the village chief shouldn't be afraid."

"How dare you, I'm afraid?"

The village chief kicked the servant, knocking him over. "I just don't want to cause trouble."

Their Huai Village has always been peaceful. Even last year's drought, apart from the famine that has occurred so far, has not caused any waves.

Who would have known that the criminals exiled this year would be sent here.

He was not worried at first, as they were just some criminals who were determined to be executed, and it would not affect his livelihood. But if there was a prince among them, it would be hard to say.

"In short, our secret must not be spread. Quickly, arrange everything before anyone enters the room, and instruct your subordinates not to reveal any clues. If the prince finds out, you and I will both die!"

The servant felt the pain in his butt and crawled up to do it.

When Qi Yu and others entered the door, they saw a figure running away quickly.

Qi Yu secretly gave Jiang Zhi a look.

Jiang Zhi understood and cried out, "Sir, I need to go to the toilet."

"You've committed quite a few crimes."

The magistrate looked displeased and waved his hand to have him taken away.

Qi Yu looked around. The huge courtyard seemed a little desolate and dilapidated, but it did not give the same desolate feeling as the entire Huai Village. The courtyard was extremely large, with three entrances and three exits. It was obvious that it must have been very grand in the past.

"He's just a village chief, so impressive."

Qi Yu sighed, then looked at the county magistrate and asked curiously, "The county magistrate and the village chief seem very familiar with each other?"

The magistrate didn't take Qi Yu seriously at all. After all, he was no longer the crown prince, so it didn't matter if he knew some trivial things.

"This official, and even the entire Huai Village, now relies on the water source of the village chief's house for survival, so I am naturally familiar with it."

The magistrate familiarly asked someone in the courtyard to report, then turned to look at Qi Yu, "My Lord, oh no, you are now a fugitive. I advise you not to play any tricks. Now that you are in the territory of Huai Village, you must listen to me and the village chief. If there is food, just give it to me, and you will definitely get a bite. If you don't cooperate..."

He grunted twice, then kicked the person beside him.

The servant beside him was caught off guard and fell to the ground, grimacing in pain. It was as if he was telling Qi Yu that this was the end.
