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

"I am the Magistrate of Huai Village. Are you two threatening me?"

"Yes, yes, you are the magistrate, but have you forgotten that the person standing before you is the prince?"

"But he is the deposed crown prince!" Sun Xian gritted his teeth and spoke in a voice that only two people could hear.

It’s not that he didn’t dare to say in front of Qi Yu that he was abandoned.

It was because Qi Yu's slender figure exuded a natural kingly aura just by standing there, which made him dare not say anything careless.

"So what if he's the deposed crown prince? Why is he so divine? And why did the emperor exile him here? Has your Excellency truly not figured this out?"

"..." Sun Xian was startled, his eyes rolling around. He looked at Zhao Li again, as if he suddenly understood something. "You mean, the emperor is testing me?"

"Well, your Excellency is right to think so."

Zhao Li let go of Sun Xian, snatched the tea he had been holding in his palm, and drank it all in one gulp. "Well, sir, do you agree to cooperate with us?"

"But I have no live poultry or livestock in my house."

Qi Yu was neither arrogant nor impatient, "But Yu Wenzheng doesn't have..."

This sentence was like a blow to Sun Xian's head.

Yu Wenzhen did have everything, and he was the one who secretly seized the box of gold from Yu's house, but he couldn't understand why these two people seemed to know everything.

Could this really be a test from the emperor?

The emperor finally remembered him, the third place winner who almost won the first prize that year!

"Alright! I'll trust you this time. Tell me how much you want."

"If you want to produce something with something, the more the better."

"You..." Sun Xian's heart was bleeding.

Yu Wenzheng is such a greedy guy. Although there are some living creatures in the mansion, there are only one sheep, two pigs, and three or five chickens, ducks, and geese. If we give them all to him, what will he, a master, eat and drink in the future?

"In ten days, the vegetables grown in the greenhouses within the exile area will be ripe. By then, we will give half of them to you, my Lord."

Qi Yu tempted, "It's just for adults, there's no need for adults to distribute it."

When this matter was mentioned, Sun Xian became even more furious.

Every time Qi Yu received food from the gods, he would distribute it to the people and send Jiang Zhi to follow him the whole time, so that he could not take even a little bit back privately.

This is good, since he will have endless food to eat and endless water to drink from now on.

"And you have to teach the greenhouse technology yourself!" Sun Xian felt that he had to get something in return.

"Okay, I will personally help you with the roofing."

Now he has developed an electric plow, and it only takes a few hours to build a greenhouse.

"Then...then tell me, what else do you need?"

Qi Yu stood where he was, pointing at the crumbs in his tea bowl with his eyes.

Before coming here, he had no intention of asking Sun Xian for anything else. It was Zhao Li who quietly told him after drinking his tea that there were snow lotus and ginseng in the teacup.

How could Sun Xian agree to such a treasure?

"You...you are trying to kill me!"

Others may not know, but his family’s master knows it.

After receiving the master's instruction, the legal advisor immediately stepped forward and said, "My two lords, my master is right. If you take away the snow lotus and ginseng, it will really be the master's life. You lords, you don't know that the master suffers from a serious illness and needs to use ginseng and snow lotus as a medicine all year round. Now there is only one left in the mansion."

"So, it doesn't matter if he eats it or not. It's gone after he finishes it anyway."

"You..." Sun Xian was so angry that he wanted to rush out the door, grab the machete from the yamen runner and chop it down on his forehead.

"How could you possibly say such a thing?" Sun Xian stared at him with his eyes wide open. "You said, bah bah bah."

Zhao Li didn't hear clearly, and it took him a while to come back to his senses and burst into laughter.

Qi Yu stepped forward and held him down, signaling him not to go too far. He walked in front of Sun Xian and said solemnly, "Since it's a life-saving item, I don't want it. I just want to tell you, sir, there's a deep forest in this county where I was unfortunately killed. The miasma in that forest is thick and there are many ferocious beasts. As the saying goes, where ferocious beasts can survive in the miasma, there are rare treasures."

Qi Yu said: "After I came back, I thought about it carefully. If I remember correctly, there is an animal called 亹亹 that feeds on ginseng all year round. So there must be a lot of ginseng in the deep forest. But to lure it out, I need bait, so I have to ask you to reluctantly give it up."

Sacrifice your own family for the sake of the whole community.

Give up a little and get more in return.

Sun Xian comforted himself over and over again in his heart.

After struggling hard, he reluctantly agreed, "Okay, I will give you the last ginseng in my house, but you must remember to bring it back to me after seven days, otherwise..."

"Don't worry, Qi Yu will ensure that you live safely and soundly."

After leaving the county magistrate's office, not only did he not get the box of gold back, nor did he give Sun Xian the medicine, but he took away a sheep, two pigs, three ducks and two geese.

When the people passing by saw them, they were all envious. Zhao Li was responsible for holding them and kept giving Qi Yu thumbs up.

"The prince is very clever, using coaxing, deceiving, intimidating and bribing."

"Brother Zhao, that's vulgar."

He was not trying to deceive, he was really trying to fall into the trap.

"I'm afraid I'll need Brother Zhao to cover for me tomorrow. I'll be back soon."

Zhao Li knew he was going to take a risk, so he didn't think much about it and said, "I'll go with you this time."

-

After Song Lai returned home, he thought about it and felt that something was wrong with Song Nian.

Since she was donating supplies to the disaster area, why did she rent a warehouse?

The call was connected, and as soon as she answered, she heard an anxious voice coming from the other end.

"Xiao Lai, I was mistaken this morning. The truck driver did go to the rescue center, but the truck only went in once and drove away. And it was empty!"

"what?"

She said, Song Nian was indeed hiding something!

"Are you sure you saw it clearly?"

"I even went in to inquire about it. Your sister Song Nian has indeed made donations these past few days, but it's only a small amount of food and medicine. And guess what?"

"If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have to fart, fart quickly." Song Lai vaguely felt that she was about to catch Song Nian's weakness. She was so excited that she couldn't contain her excitement. She had no mood to beat around the bush.

"I gave the train driver 300 yuan. He said your sister ordered several thousand kilograms of vegetables from his vegetable farmers in the past few days, but the relief center only recorded 300 kilograms. Where do you think she hid all that?"

"you ask me?"

Song Lai's lips curled up, and he couldn't help but feel surprised. "Check it for me. I must know what Song Nian is up to. Brother Fang Kai, you don't have anything important to do during this period anyway, so can you help me keep an eye on Song Nian?"

Suddenly hearing the girl he likes acting coquettishly, Fang Kai on the phone was filled with spring in his heart. He whispered into the phone, "Be good, call me brother again..."

"Brother Kai~"

"not enough."

"Isn't it enough that I agreed to go on a date with you? Just help me, you're the only one who can help me now, help me find out what Song Nian is doing, okay, Brother Kai~"

Fang Kai was completely immersed in the sweet voice, "Okay, from now on, I will keep an eye on Song Nian 24 hours a day."
