The Emperor's Favorite Fenghua: Master Guoshi is a magic stick

Chapter 144 Subduing the Government
Zhou Tai finally panicked.

Looking at Zuo Qiuyao, he asked vigilantly, "You... who are you? You... What is the purpose of coming to the Zhou Mansion?"

It was only now that I realized that this woman was able to enter the Zhou Mansion alone, and seemed to have solved all the guards in the mansion.

There are quite a few guards in his mansion.

But Zuo Qiuyao straightened up from the door. Looking at Zhou Tai who looked a little flustered, he said calmly: "Master Zhou, don't panic. This little girl has come specially to see you."

Thinking of what Zuo Qiuyao said just now, he couldn't help but sweatdropped on his head: "You want me to be escorted to confession? I'm not guilty, I didn't do anything. I, Zhou Tai, have been honest and upright all my life. I have never... never done anything shameful. .”

"Really?" Zuo Qiuyao didn't bother to expose him, and went straight into the study, and found a seat on his own and sat down.

Looking at the tea on Zhou Tai's table, he couldn't help laughing and said, "50 taels of tea have been sold in this city, and now Master Zhou is very willing."

"Come here, prepare tea for the girl!" Zhou Tai reacted, stood up immediately, and walked towards the door of the study.

but……

Zuo Qiuyao just slightly raised his hand.

"Snapped!"

The door of the study is closed.

Zhou Tai was so frightened that his legs were so weak that he almost knelt down on the ground.

He turned his head and looked at Zuo Qiuyao tremblingly, wondering if he saw a ghost?
Zuo Qiuyao smiled, raised his eyes and looked at him: "What's wrong? Master Zhou can't sit still?"

"No...not." Zhou Tai sat back down again with weak legs and feet.

Zuo Qiuyao casually smiled, and continued: "Actually, I just wanted to talk to Mr. Zhou about the current situation in Yuzhou City."

"What... what do you mean?" Zhou Tai was a little puzzled, although he was even more puzzled about who the woman in front of him was and how she could have such great strength.

It's so weird...

But the steward next to him looked at Zuo Qiuyao and suddenly thought of something.He widened his eyes and said, "You... are you the woman who came in at the gate of the city today? People from the capital?"

The guards at the city gate also said that the woman was wearing a veil, so she couldn't tell what she looked like.

Isn't the woman in front of you the same?
This news has just arrived, the woman should have just entered the city not long ago, but now she directly found the government office?

"After entering the city today, I saw that the situation in Yuzhou City was even worse than I imagined. I saw that the city residents could no longer live normally in the city and were willing to leave their homes. The citizens who left the city were banned from entering the city and classified as mobs, I saw that the people from the government were strong and domineering and drove the people away and could not appeal in front of the government yamen..." Zuo Qiuyao said one by one, watching Zhou Tai wipe the sweat from his forehead, Then he sneered: "Master Zhou, what do you think?"

"This... must be the group of people under him who are full of private pockets and do not do their jobs. I have clearly said that the needs of the people are the first. I, Zhou Tai, have been working hard for Yuzhou City. After taking office, I will be diligent and honest. I will never betray your majesty. expectations of me."

"Oh? But I see Mr. Zhou is well-clothed and well-fed, there is no shortage of tea, he hides in the mansion and doesn't hear anything outside the window, he is plump, and he lives a good life, as if the drought in Yuzhou City has no influence on you at all! " Zuo Qiuyao sarcastically said.

As the largest official in Yuzhou Mansion, he must have enjoyed the greatest preferential treatment at the first moment of the disaster, so that he can maintain such a calm and calm day.

So how could Zuo Qiuyao not sneer?
If Zhou Tai hadn't been afraid of Zuo Qiuyao's strength, he would have kicked her out by now.But he could only suppress the anger in his heart, and then pretended to be gentle: "Then girl, what do you want me to do? Zhou has worked very hard to change the current situation in Yuzhou City. But people can't fight against the sky, I You can’t let it rain right away, can you?”

"From now on, go to the city to set up a disaster relief point, and all the government personnel will be dispatched. Then call the strong men in the city together to build a temporary shelter. The elderly, children, women and children who are homeless in the city, first settle them down. The prices of restaurants will return to normal. , the tax you collect must be completely exempted during the drought, after all, only they have the channel to buy some food that can barely support some people. Now the situation is special, business is difficult to do, and their finished products are higher." Zuo Qiuyao thought carefully, watching Zhou Tai continued: "When the order in the city returns to normal, almost the team of the National Teacher has already arrived. At that time, everything will be ready, and it's time to owe the east wind."

Hearing Zuo Qiuyao's series of arrangements, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed and said: "Then... how much will it cost? The manpower may not be enough! Those strong men may not listen to the government."

"Oh, not enough money?" Zuo Qiuyao's eyes cooled down: "I see that Mr. Zhou's house has a lot of valuable things, if it's really not enough..."

"Enough enough, I'll take as much as I can." Zhou Tai thought about agreeing to this woman first, and playing by ear later.

Zuo Qiuyao knew what he was planning by looking at his wicked eyebrows, so he raised his eyebrows and said casually: "Don't try to play tricks, as long as I'm here, there will be no accidents."

Zhou Tai had an embarrassed expression: "Then what if we can't recruit people?"

"After being the magistrate for so many years, the common people don't value your prestige, don't trust it, and you can't gather together at critical moments. What is the reason? I'm afraid only Mr. Zhou knows it well." Zuo Qiuyao's eyes were cold.

"Yes... yes, Zhou knows."

Zhou Tai took Zuo Qiu Yao's words seriously.

But if he hears it, will he do it?
When he found an opportunity to issue orders, he immediately gathered his men to surround the study and arrest Zuo Qiuyao.

But in the end, all his subordinates looked at him with fear on their faces: "My lord, that woman must be a powerful warrior. How can we be the opponent of the warrior?"

"Yes, but first look at what she wants to do? After the people from the court arrive, isn't it trivial to think of how to deal with her?"

"Yes, no matter how powerful she is, she would never dare to do anything to your majestic magistrate? We see her as a sham, she only dares to frighten you by acting on us."

Originally, Zhou Tai also thought so.

But when he walked in front of Zuo Qiuyao to put on a show and was beaten severely, he knew that he was thinking too much.

Zuo Qiuyao directly took his clothes and went to the gate of the city to make an announcement.

Immediately, big news came from the entire Yuzhou City.

That is, a heroine parachuted into Yuzhou City and subdued the bully government and the corrupt official Zhou Tai.
