There was no shortage of food on the way to escape, and the lucky lady was busy farming.

Chapter 39 Why bother to make things smelly?
Qin's piercing scream came from the door, and Song Rutang felt very unlucky.

Why did this person appear at this time?

Everyone in the back was amazed at the wonderful cooperation between Song Rutang and the cook. When they heard Qin's shout, they all looked at Song Rutang in unison.

Qin Yuming said leisurely:

"Beautiful girl, I took a beating for you, and this is how you treat me? Beautiful girl?"

Song Rutang's face was filled with heat. She turned her head silently, ignoring the silent accusations from several people. She turned to look at Qin and said with suppressed anger:
"Why are you so crazy again?"

"Am I crazy? Ask yourselves, you two. You were pretending to be a ghost in the woods ahead to scare us, and now you are still standing here pretending that nothing is wrong. I heard on the road that your family members are in prison. How can you two still do this? So leisurely?"

While Mrs. Qin was talking, she glanced at Qin Yuming and said as if she suddenly realized:
"Oh, you have found a man, so naturally you don't care about the life and death of your family. You even wish that your family would die so that you could elope with the pretty boy."

Yang Songlan was so angry that she was shaking at her words. She stepped forward to confront her, but was pushed aside by Mrs. Qin, who said casually:

"Don't touch me. I don't dare to stand with the sinner's daughter. Otherwise, my new clothes will be stained with bad luck."

"Auntie, my grandfather and the others were wrongly accused."

Song Rutang stood up, pulled Yang Songlan aside, and explained to Qin, but in fact, he was telling Lin Chaoqing.

As expected, Mrs. Qin came to the road. When she saw Song Rutang saying such unconfident words, she couldn't help but want to quarrel with her, Yin Yang said:

"Who in this world cares whether you have been wronged or not? Since you have been imprisoned, you should accept your fate. I think you should go help report your relatives as soon as possible to gain a good reputation and avoid suffering the stigma with them, right? "

Mrs. Qin kept poking at the heart of people's hearts, causing Yang Songlan to shed tears. She didn't care if there was anyone around, and glared at her with red eyes:

"My parents have done good deeds all their lives, how could they lead the refugees to cause chaos and do such things that bring disaster to all living beings? There must be grievances involved in this matter. Please keep your mouth open and don't let yourself bite people's tongues. .”

Mrs. Qin opened her eyes wide and wanted to speak, but was pulled away by the guards. She saw Lin Chaoqing take out a jade plaque from his arms and said seriously:

"I am Lin Chaoqing, the right deputy censor of the capital who has been personally ordered by the emperor to patrol here. If you have any grievances, please tell me quickly."

Song Rutang had been waiting for this moment. She secretly sighed that although Qin came at the wrong time, she was really a powerful assist. She knelt on the ground with a plop and said:

"Please tell me clearly. The magistrate of Anping County stole the imperial grain and caused chaos among the refugees. Instead of releasing food for relief, he ordered soldiers to set fire to the refugees. The blood of the refugees was everywhere. The Yang family begged for mercy for the refugees. The magistrate So I labeled the Yang family as leading the people to cause chaos, and put them in jail. The people kept silent, and they were deeply squeezed by the county magistrate. I beg you to look into this matter, clear the name of the Yang family, and bring peace to the people of Anping County!"

Yang Songlan also knelt down and kowtowed deeply together with Song Rutang, waiting for Lin Chaoqing's response.

Now she finally figured out why Tang Bao kept steering the topic towards the disaster. It turned out that she had already known that this was an official from the capital!

"What about you? But what else can you say?"

Lin Chaoqing looked at the three men standing blankly behind Song Rutang.

Qin Yuming opened his mouth to speak, but the cook pulled him back:
"Shopkeeper, this is not feasible. If the county magistrate knows that we have spoken on behalf of the Yang family, the people in our restaurant will really have no chance of survival!"

Song Rutang silently gave the cook a thumbs up.Very good, one is a good person and the other is a bad person, now the character of the county magistrate is really set to death.

Lin Chaoqing also noticed it, thought about it, turned around and walked out with the guards behind him:
"Let's go check it out."

Song Rutang felt happy and said more:
"Sir, you haven't eaten that skewer yet!"

Lin Chaoqing stopped, thought again and again, then turned back to get the skewers and ate them as he walked.

After taking a bite, his eyes lit up as expected.

good to eat!

With the blessing of barbecue skewers, Song Rutang looked more like a good person in Lin Chaoqing's eyes. He walked three steps, two steps, five steps, one skewer, seven steps, one steamed bun. When he arrived at the gate of the county government, he had just finished eating, and the back of his hand He wiped a handful of it on his mouth, flashed his jade sign at the gatekeeper, and led the people straight to the lobby of the county government office.

The magistrate hurriedly led the people out with a smile on his face:
"It turns out it's Mr. Lin. Why are you here for the first time? Why don't you tell people to inform you? I can ask someone to prepare a sedan to pick you up and save you a lot of walking, right?"

Lin Chaoqing snorted:
"There are so many refugees outside, but you don't want to take care of them. How can you still prepare a sedan chair here?"

The county magistrate was stunned for a moment, then knew that this person was coming towards him. He glanced at the civilians behind Lin Chaoqing and winked at the government servant behind him.

Naturally, this action could not hide from Lin Chaoqing's eyes, so he immediately asked the guards to guard the Yamen and not allow anyone to go out.

Song Rutang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the bet was not wrong, otherwise, many people would have been implicated.

Lin Chaoqing walked into the office and waved. The two guards behind him immediately went to the study to search.

The magistrate tried to stop him in every possible way, but this made Lin Chaoqing even more angry. He grabbed the magistrate with a backhand:
"You have the courage to dominate, but you don't have the courage to let people check you? Isn't it okay to speak so well of yourself in front of the emperor?"

The magistrate gave a wry smile. Unexpectedly, Lin Chaoqing actually had some skills. He couldn't struggle, so he had to change his tactics:
"Lord Lin, you don't know. This villain is doing this for you. There are ten thousand taels of gold prepared for you in the backyard. If you search, your friendship and the ten thousand taels of gold will be gone." !”

Lin Chaoqing sneered and grabbed the magistrate's hand harder. When the magistrate couldn't bear it anymore and wailed twice, he said:

"Do you think everyone is like you and only has money in their eyes? You should wait to talk to the emperor about these things!"

Seeing that the inducement was fruitless, the magistrate suddenly started laughing too:

"Master Lin really thinks you can save yourself if you catch me? I have accepted Zuodu Yushi as my godfather. Even if you send me to the capital, you will have to send me back with a smile in the end. Master Lin, Why do you bother to make yourself smelly?"

"The Censor of Zuodu?"

Lin Chaoqing was stunned for a moment before he remembered who this person was. He couldn't help but laugh at the magistrate's overestimation of his abilities:
"Your godfather has been sent to prison by the emperor a long time ago. I'll put in a few nice words with the emperor later and let you share a cell with your godfather."

Song Rutang listened for a long time, and it was only then that her anxious heart finally settled into her stomach.

She stared at the lobby, and after a while she saw the guards coming out with several brochures:
"My lord, it's all here."
