Chapter 225
Lotus snorted coldly, "A man's feet can't be controlled, he can go wherever he likes."

Wu Jiafan stared at the lotus, his expression seemed to say, I can control my feet.

The lotus blossomed into a smile in her heart, but she said with a serious face: "Today's money will come, we have to hurry up to buy food, but there is not much time to delay. I have learned that the three families are similar, but Feng The old man of the family will distribute food outside the city every month to help the poor people, and it has not changed for more than ten years. He thinks he is a true kind person, and such a person is worthy of our association, so I decided to choose the Feng family."

Seeing that the lotus was talking about the business, they were no longer entangled in yesterday's matter, Wu Jiafan said: "The Feng family is good, but how do we meet the head of their family? We must know that he will not meet outsiders casually."

This is also what Lotus is thinking about. Now they are short of time, and they can't spend too much time here.The matter in Ji County is still waiting to be dealt with, and there is still work to be done after returning home, so we can only settle it quickly. "I'm also thinking of a way."

Xu Shijie said: "Why don't you go to the magistrate. He is an official here, no matter how rich the Feng family is, they will give him face."

Li Wenhao said: "If you want to find the magistrate, you must reveal your identity."

"What are you afraid of? We didn't do anything bad." Xu Shijie said.

He Hua thinks this method is feasible, as long as she shows her identity to the magistrate, it will be much easier for him to help introduce her. "Why don't you leave it like this, then only you, the second brother, have revealed your identity, and the magistrate will definitely arrange it immediately."

Li Wenhao agreed: "Okay, let's go to the magistrate's yamen immediately, and settle the matter before the money arrives."

Others agreed.

A group of people went to the magistrate's yamen, and when they came outside the yamen, Li Wenhao signaled Zhao Li to explain to the gatekeeper why they came.

Zhao Li came to the gate and said to the gatekeeper: "We have something to ask the magistrate, please let me know."

The yamen servant looked at him up and down and said, "You can beat the drums if you have something to do."

"We're not here to report the case. We have a private matter with the magistrate," Zhao Li said.

The yamen servant looked at him disdainfully, "If you have any private matters, you can find our magistrate, go and go."

Zhao Li was too lazy to talk to him, and went back to report to them, "My lord, the gatekeeper didn't want to introduce him, saying he had something to beat the drum."

"This man is so ungrateful, we can count his ancestors as smokers." Ding Manxue said angrily.

Lotus also said: "That is, since he asked us to play the drum, we will play it, and we must inform the government of the crime of negligence."

Zhao Li understood, went to the gate of the yamen again, picked up the drum hammer and beat it, and the loud sound came into the yamen.

After a while, they were brought into the lobby.

Sitting at the top was a 40-year-old man with a fat head and big ears. This man should be the magistrate of Lu County.

Jiang Zhifu saw that few people in the hall did not salute him, so he slammed the gavel vigorously, "Who is in the hall, why don't you kneel when you see me."

Li Wenhao said, "We're afraid you won't be able to bear it."

"Everyone who comes to the official hall has to kneel down to the official, so hurry up and kneel down." Jiang Zhifu said.

Xu Shijie shouted: "What are you, you should kneel down to this young master."

"Bold!" Prefect Jiang patted the gavel, and the servants in the hall immediately started to move.

Li Wenhao handed his token to Zhao Li, and motioned him to show it to Jiang Zhifu, because they didn't intend to let too many people know their identities, so he just asked Zhao Li to show Jiang Zhifu alone.

The other yamen servants stared at them intently, thinking that they did not dare to make any moves, and they never thought that Zhao Li would suddenly rush in front of Jiang Zhifu.

Prefect Jiang was so frightened that he almost jumped up from his chair. Zhao Li pressed him back to his seat and showed him the token in his hand.

Jiang Zhifu's eyes widened, his mouth seemed to be screaming, Zhao Li lowered his voice and said, "My lord doesn't want to be open."

Jiang Zhifu swallowed his saliva, and yelled at the yamen servants under the hall, "All go down to me, you group of eyesless things."

The yamen servant watched Zhifu Jiang retreating out of the hall with an inexplicable expression on his face, and Zhifu Jiang scrambled and ran to Li Wenhao and others.Zhao Li didn't tell him who the lord is, so he wasn't sure, so he just knelt down and shouted, "I don't know King Hao's driving, so I'm far away from welcoming you. Please forgive me, lord."

"You are guilty." Li Wenhao said in a deep voice.

Jiang Zhifu lowered his head and did not dare to lift it up, "Yes, yes, the crime of being an official deserves death."

"Get up, this king is here because I have something important for you to do." Li Wenhao said while receiving the token from Zhao Li.

Only then did Jiang Zhifu dare to get up, and said in a very doggy manner: "If you have anything to do, just ask the prince, and I will do my best to complete it."

"You know the Feng family in Lu County, let their patriarch come to see this king." Li Wenhao said in a deep voice.

Jiang Zhifu asked carefully: "I don't know why the prince is looking for him?"

Li Wenhao glanced at him, Jiang Zhifu immediately dared not make a sound.Li Wenhao said: "This is my king's business, so there should be no need to report it to you."

"The lower officials are talking too much." Jiang Zhifu nodded and bowed.

Li Wenhao didn't like this kind of troublesome official the most. He could mess around in front of He Hua and others, but he was still very dignified in front of others. Jiang Zhifu immediately calmed down.

Li Wenhao just didn't like other people's troubles, but it didn't matter if he knew about it, so he said, "We're going to buy rice and rice at Feng's house, so go and introduce him. We'll see him at noon today."

Jiang Zhifu nodded, "Yes, I will do it right away, can I invite him to meet the prince in the Yamen?"

Li Wenhao nodded.

Jiang Zhifu took them out of the courtroom to rest, asked the servants to greet them politely, and hurried out.

They waited for Jiang Zhifu in the inner hall, and after half an hour, Jiang Zhifu brought in an old man with a honest face, who was supposed to be the head of the Feng family.

Jiang Zhifu entered the inner hall and came to Li Wenhao with a smile and said: "The lower officials brought you here."

Seeing that the fat in Jiang Zhifu's eyes trembled, He Hua couldn't bear to look at it. She turned her gaze to Patriarch Feng. He was about 50 years old, and his body looked healthy. He walked over and said: " I heard that you asked me to buy food?"

"That's right!" He Hua said, "Let's be honest, we came from Ji County, and now we came to Lu County to buy grain. We found out that your Feng family has a lot of grain reserves, and your old He is kind, so I hope to work with you."

Master Feng originally thought that the one who made the decision was Jiang Zhifu's fawning target, but now it seems that this girl is the one who made the decision. Based on his experience, these people are not ordinary people, otherwise Jiang Zhifu would not be so fawning on them, come to them again If they come from Ji County, then they may be officials who went to Ji County to fight the disaster.
