In the years of famine, in troubled times, the koi sweet wife is omnipotent
Chapter 140 She is someone you can’t afford to offend
She was dressed very ordinary, not like a noble prince or aristocrat. So why was Lieutenant General Zhou so respectful to her?
It seems that she is the one who has the most say.
County Magistrate Xu looked at Deputy General Zhang again, and seeing that he was still shaking his head slightly at him, he knew that he could not act rashly at this time.
"This... isn't it because Lieutenant General Zhang is coming, so I ordered people to make some delicious food to entertain them? After all, they've fought hard, so it's not too much to ask for some good food, right?"
County Magistrate Xu looked at Zhou Yi and explained with a smile.
"County Magistrate Xu!"
Lieutenant General Zhang slammed the table in anger and shouted in a deliberately angry tone, "Didn't I tell you that next time I visit your home, don't serve such a rich meal. We should save food and distribute it to the people. Look at this table full of meat and vegetables. How can I say good things to you?"
County Magistrate Xu knew that Deputy General Zhang was playing a trick on him, so he quickly agreed, "I'm sorry, Deputy General Zhang, it's my fault. I will never waste supplies like this again."
Of course Zhou Yi and Xia Wanwan also knew that these two people were acting!
"Since we've prepared such a sumptuous meal, let's eat! We have things to do, so we'll leave first."
Zhou Yi didn't say much, but stood up and prepared to leave with Xia Wanwan because they didn't have the time to waste here.
"Since Vice General Zhou is here, why don't you sit down and have a meal together? We can also discuss our experience in attacking the enemy."
Deputy General Zhang stood up and spoke politely.
Zhou Yi turned around, glanced at him coldly, and said sarcastically, "Excuse me, we've already eaten. We can't delay what we need to do next. After all, we're distributing life-saving supplies to the people. How can we delay, right? County Magistrate Xu, you have quite a lot of yamen runners here, and they're all strong and healthy. Why not transfer some of them to the south of the city to help move the supplies to the people?"
"Distribute supplies?"
Lieutenant General Zhang was amazed when he heard this. "Impossible!" he said in astonishment. "How could we not have any information about the Imperial Court distributing supplies? And they wouldn't be sent directly to your front lines. Shouldn't they be transported through Rongcheng and then to your Jiangcheng front lines? How could it be the other way around?"
Zhou Yi gave him a cold look, curled his lips and said sarcastically, "Why, does the imperial court have to pass through Rongcheng to distribute supplies?"
"Isn't that right? We must first go to Jiangcheng, and Rongcheng is the only way. Without passing through Rongcheng, the supplies cannot be delivered to Jiangcheng, unless they go by water. Now everyone in the north knows that the ongoing drought has caused many riverbeds to dry up. Even if the court wanted to use water routes, it is powerless."
Lieutenant General Zhang's analysis was perfectly logical. Finally, he looked at Zhou Yi and sneered, "Lieutenant General Zhou! Is there something wrong with you? Did you secretly hide military rations earlier? And now you're deliberately trying to act nice again."
"Pah~"
Xia Wanwan stood up, not even bothering to say a word, and slapped him in the face.
"You bitch, how dare you hit me."
Lieutenant General Zhang didn't expect Xia Wanwan to have such a bad temper, and she slapped him in the face.
Shouldn't he start by nagging a few words and then hitting someone after he becomes unhappy with the conversation?
"I'm going to hit you. You haven't brushed your teeth in ten years, and your mouth stinks. Before you say that Lieutenant General Zhou is hiding military rations, you should think about yourself first!"
Xia Wanwan deliberately stretched out her slender and soft little hand and fanned her nose, looking as disgusted as she could be.
Deputy General Zhang drew his sword, pointed it at Xia Wanwan, looked at Zhou Yi, and demanded, "Zhou Yi! You must give me an explanation today. Who is this woman?"
Upon seeing this, County Magistrate Xu also stood up and looked at Xia Wanwan with a haughty expression, adding fuel to the fire, "How dare a mere woman attack Deputy General Zhang, who is stationed in Rongcheng? If you don't give a reasonable explanation today, you won't be able to leave the county government office."
"She is someone you can't afford to offend."
Zhou Yi said lightly.
Although the tone is light, the words are of extraordinary value.
"What do you mean by an existence I can't afford to offend?"
Lieutenant General Zhang felt a little guilty. From the beginning, Zhou Yi had been respectful to her, but now he said that she was someone who could not be provoked.
Could it be that she is a princess?
its not right.
As a deputy general, every time he followed the commander back to the capital, the commander would take him to the palace, and he had basically met all the princesses and monarchs in the palace.
The oldest one is Princess Yong'an, who has just turned twenty this year. Because the emperor loves her too much and wants to marry her to the God of War General, she has not married yet.
Someone like Xia Wanwan, who looks to be in her twenties, can't be a princess.
It is even more impossible for the monarch, as the eldest Princess Pingle has just reached the age of marriage.
So who is this woman?
She deserves to be treated with such respect by Vice General Zhou.
Zhou Yi seemed a bit taller than Lieutenant General Zhang. He took two steps forward, looked down at him, and warned him, "You don't deserve to know who she is, but I can tell you this: even if your master, Commander Han, were here, he wouldn't dare do anything to her."
"what?"
Lieutenant General Zhang was so frightened by his words that he took two steps back and looked at Xia Wanwan with a look of fear in his eyes and his Adam's apple rolled.
Even their commander is here, but he doesn't dare to do anything to her?
What kind of identity does Zhou Yi have that would allow him to say such confident words?
Zhou Yi finished speaking and walked out again, his voice icy cold as he said, "County Magistrate Xu! I just thought, we shouldn't bother your people with helping distribute the supplies. It would be better for them to stay here and entertain Lieutenant General Zhang."
After saying that, he and Xia Wanwan stood up and left without looking back.
As they left the inner courtyard, Xia Wanwan reached out her left hand and touched the red ink on the bowl on her right. She sensed it with her mind, "Red ink! There's definitely something fishy going on with this county magistrate's family and that Deputy General Zhang. Stay and help me gather intelligence. If you find anything, come back and report to me immediately."
"Yes, Master."
The big red flower jumped from Xia Wanwan's wrist and into the grass beside her. It quickly wrapped around the flower stem of a red potted plant and merged perfectly with it.
"Fairy! Did you observe anything in the room just now?"
After walking out of the yamen, Zhou Yi asked Xia Wanwan, then turned back to look at the two words "County Yamen" on the plaque, his eyes as cold as ice.
There is no doubt that County Magistrate Xu is a problematic person, and the person behind him is most likely Lieutenant General Zhang.
If it was Lieutenant General Zhang, it would be easy to deal with, but I'm afraid there is someone with a higher status behind him.
And without evidence, he couldn't afford to expose his guilt.
Xia Wanwan walked to the front of the trailer, opened the door, and returned to the driver's seat. "Be prepared for battle. That Deputy General Zhang is not a good person. He has guessed that we are suspicious of him, so he will definitely kill us tonight."
