Chapter 120 Waiting for Mr. Zhao to find out first

Yunzhou Mansion, thatched cottage.

Inside the hut, Xiao Jinxi was staring at the gravel in his hand, his eyes were full of murderous intent at the moment...

After a long time, Xiao Jinxi took a deep breath and said, "Wei Mo, wait for this first, let's wait for Mr. Zhao to find out first."

"Yes, master." Wei Mo bowed back.

I saw Xiao Jinxi wrapped up the gravel again, and said, "Luoer, put this away first."

"Yes, Miss." Luo Er heard the words and took the burden and put it away.

At this moment, Yunlin came in, bowed and said back: "Master, the food and medicinal materials sent by Master Hou have all arrived at the foot of the mountain."

"Okay, send two-thirds to Mo Yi's side, and leave the rest here. In addition, inform Yunfeng that there is no need to send any more things here for the time being." Xiao Jinxi ordered.

"Yes, master." Yunlin bowed and retreated.

Wei Mo asked again: "Master, I heard that you suspect someone is watching here?"

Xiao Jinxi nodded upon hearing this, and said, "Yes, that's right."

After a while, he said again: "Wei Mo, those kids are inexperienced after all, go and arrange the people that Mo Yi gave to, and guard the thatched cottage for me, so don't drag these people down."

"Yes, this subordinate will make arrangements now." Wei Mo bowed and retreated.

I saw Xiao Jinxi turning her head and staring at the chessboard on the couch, pinching a jade with two fingers and rubbing it... Dugu Yan, even if you saw me diagnose the pulse and perform acupuncture, so what?I bet you will never tell Murong Xuan now!As long as you don't tell Murong Xuan right now, it's enough!Also, you know martial arts!It was beyond my expectation!

After a long time, I saw Xiao Jinxi put the jade in his hand on the chessboard, and the hostility flashed in his eyes... Ji Haotian, Duguyan, I, Xiao Jinxi, will settle this account with you sooner or later!

Yunzhou Mansion, a porridge shed.

I saw many suffering people, looking at the porridge in the bowl and the steamed buns in their hands, shaking their heads helplessly, and finally walked aside helplessly, squatting down and eating.

"Oh... this porridge is getting thinner every day."

"Who says it's not? Look at this steamed bun. I don't know how much yeast powder has been added. It's loose and bubbles, and it collapses when pressed."

"Who said no, my stomach will be empty soon after eating."

"Zhuzi, why are you putting away the steamed buns? Are you hungry if you don't eat?"

"I'd better save it for the children to eat at night. The things I received these days are like this. Even the children can't eat enough, and they will cry from hunger at night."

"You said why these people are so greedy, even withholding this kind of food, God should send a thunderbolt to kill them!"

"Keep your voice down, if you are heard, you will lose even this little thing tomorrow."

"Understood, alas..."

"Why don't we try the porridge sheds in other places tomorrow, maybe it's better than here."

"Then you must be able to line up! Now the porridge sheds in this area are already full, and everyone has lined up from the beginning, and they are there every day. If you intervene now, there is no place for you." !"

"Ugh···"

"Brothers, please excuse me." At this moment, Yun Rui and Yun Ting, who had been watching from afar, stepped forward and said.

Several people who were eating with their heads down, raised their heads when they heard the sound, and saw the two people dressed neatly. They were shocked, and immediately kowtowed desperately, and tremblingly said: "My lord, we didn't say anything, you heard it wrong, you heard it wrong!"

Yun Rui saw it and understood it instantly, took out the token from his body one by one, and said again: "Brothers, don't be afraid, we are not official servants here, the two of us were sent by the Marquis of Wu'an, look at this token .”

Several people who were kowtowing, heard the words and looked up at the token tremblingly, and one of them asked weakly: "My lord, are you really from the Marquis of Wu'an?"

Yun Rui nodded, and replied: "That's right, big brother, my two brothers were sent by the Marquis of Wu'an, don't worry."

"Brother, you just said that the porridge is getting thinner every day, and the steamed buns are also loose and bubbly. When did this start?"

Hearing the words, the big man looked around and said softly: "My lords, Prime Minister Jiang sent people to check every day at the beginning of the court, so they didn't dare to do anything about it, but since a few days ago, no one has been sent again People came to see it, and the porridge became thinner and thinner. Even the noodles for making steamed buns were soaked. Can't get enough!"

Hearing this, Yun Ting took the steamed bun, pressed his hand, and frowned instantly: "Yun Rui, look, this steamed bun is the only place where you can eat enough."

Yun Rui frowned when he saw it, and asked again: "Brother, who is in charge of the porridge shed here?"

I saw an old man pointing his finger at a short and fat middle-aged man in front of him, and said: "My lord, it is the short and fat man. Did you see that, it is him. He is the master of the yamen. Doting on, domineering, never taking us ordinary people seriously, this time the county magistrate sent him to manage the porridge shed again."

"Master, does the county magistrate know about him?" Yun Rui asked again.

"I must know, my lord. They are officials and officials protecting each other. How dare we small people say anything, or they can do whatever they want." The old man said softly again.

Upon hearing the words, Yun Rui and Yunting raised their heads and stared at the porridge shed in front of them...

After a while, Yun Ting asked: "Yun Rui, what do you think we should do? Even if we go to Mr. Zhao now, it will be dark today."

At this moment, I saw an old woman in front of me holding a bowl in her hand, slipped and almost fell down, and a passer-by caught a glimpse, quickly helped the old woman, and said, "Ma'am, be careful." Hey...thank you Zhang Butou."

When Yun Rui saw it, his eyes froze for a moment, and the corner of his mouth smiled lightly: "Then deal with it on the spot, we can't move the county magistrate, can't we move a master!"

Yun Rui turned around and asked, "Master, is that man the head catcher of the yamen?"

The old man looked at it and replied: "That's right, it's Zhang Butou. Zhang Butou is usually very kind to the people, but he can't be the master of a small Butou, so there's nothing he can do about it."

Yun Rui said to the old man again: "Master, can you help us?"

Hearing this, the old man asked in confusion: "My lord, what can I do for you old man?"

Yun Rui leaned close to the uncle's ear and whispered for a while...

The old man instantly showed embarrassment, hesitantly said: "This..."

Seeing the hesitant old man, Yun Rui said again: "Master, only by getting rid of that man, can everyone have a full meal today."

After a while, the old man gritted his teeth and said firmly: "Okay, old man, I will fight it out today. My lords, just wait!"
