Crossing the wasteland: Farming and peasant girls can't be provoked

Jing Yi looked at the tea that Xiao Yilin moved in front of her, and seeing that the tea inside was that kind of flavored tea, she pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "Brother Xiao, I'm really not used to drinking this tea. I'll drink some plain water."

Xiao Yilin thought of the roasted tea that the little girl drank at home, and said, "I'll get you a pot of white water."

Xiao Yilin called Xiao Er and asked for a pot of boiled water.

Xiao Yilin poured Jing Yi a bowl of boiled water, and heard one of the people drinking tea and chatting across the table say: "There are so many disaster victims in this city, and the city is getting more and more chaotic. All kinds of food have increased in price, doesn’t it mean that the imperial court has allocated funds to resettle the victims? Why haven’t you seen the government give out porridge?”

"Didn't you see that now you have to pay fifty renminbi to enter the city? It is said that if you want to settle in the local area, you have to pay a naturalization fee of two taels of silver. If they are resettled, they have to be driven away. If the porridge is given out outside the city, those victims can still leave."

A person whispered: "The officials of the Jiangzhou government have become rich because of these disaster victims who want to be naturalized. Not only are the funds allocated by the court corrupt, but the money collected from these disaster victims has also entered their pockets. This Jiangzhou No one in the manor knew that Liu Cishi's brother-in-law, Zhao Kui, had just bought a big mansion and even took in two concubines at once. It is said that they are all rare beauties.

The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate took away the beautiful girls who were the chief of the victims. It is conceivable where these girls went, they must have been taken over by those officials.Then Zhao Kui is Liu Cishi's pawn, and it is Zhao Kui who does bad things.Inspector Liu is behind him to support him."

"Hey, you don't want to die, don't talk nonsense. In the future, don't talk about it outside."

A few people may also be a little scared and dare not talk anymore, and talk about other topics.

Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi looked at each other after listening to the words of the few people, then continued drinking tea in silence and listening to the gossip of the people around them.

The two of them finished their snacks before leaving the teahouse.

Jing Yi approached Xiao Yilin and whispered, "We have gained a lot, and now we have a new target. Maybe what we are looking for is in Zhao Kui's place. Let's find out where his home is, and go check it out at night."

Xiao Yilin nodded, "I have a hunch that we should gain something this time."

It's not difficult to find Liu Cishi's brother-in-law's house, the house must be newly renovated, and it must be in a wealthy area, so you can find it as soon as you ask.

The two of them looked around Zhao Kui's house, and Jing Yi also quietly used supernatural powers to control the plants in the house, and got a general understanding of the topography of the house.

The two of them had a lunch outside and went back in the afternoon, planning to rest early and act in the evening.

Xiao Yilin also arranged for Gu Yu and Feng Zhi to go out and inquire about Zhao Kui, Liu Cishi's brother-in-law.

In the evening, while Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi were having dinner, Gu Yu and Feng Zhi came back, entered the room and closed the door Gu Yu said, "My lord, this Zhao Kui is very famous in Jiangzhou Prefecture, and it is easy to inquire about his affairs."

Then Gu Yu told what he had heard about Zhao Kui.

Zhao Kui took advantage of Governor Liu and found a job under Governor Liu, because he was very domineering in Jiangzhou Prefecture with the support of Governor Liu.

Occupying other people's property and robbing women's women are often done.He did some things that Governor Liu was inconvenient to do.

Inspector Liu has been the governor of Jiangzhou Prefecture for many years, searching for people's fat and people's anointing.It's just that these are other people's rumors, and there must be conclusive evidence to punish Governor Liu for his crimes.

Xiao Yilin said to Gu Yu: "Jing Yan and I will visit Zhao Kui's house tonight, so you don't have to go tonight."

Although Gu Yu was worried that Dr. Chu would hold back his prince, he did not dare to question his prince's decision.

After yesterday's adaptation, Jing Yi was not so nervous when she rested at night. Xiao Yilin is an honest gentleman and would not do anything to her.Besides, he didn't know she was a woman.

In the middle of the night, Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi, dressed in black night clothes, turned out of the room from the window and quickly headed towards Zhao Kui's house.

Xiao Yilin felt that his speed was already very fast. He didn't expect that the little girl's speed was not slow at all. This discovery surprised Xiao Yilin very much. It seems that the little girl has good skills.

The two quietly came to Zhao Kui's house, and Jing Yi climbed onto the wall with a jump.

Seeing the young girl's vigorous and agile figure, Xiao Yilin was relieved a lot.He also flew up to the top of the wall.Seeing that there was no one inside the wall, the two entered the house quietly.

Jing Yi waited for a while and saw that there was no movement and heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there is no dog in this house, so it is really troublesome not to take it.

The two made a gesture and moved towards the main courtyard.

When they passed a yard, they saw that a room in the yard was still lit.It's already this hour, the person who hasn't slept is probably Zhao Kui.

The two quietly came to the window of the brightly lit room, and heard crying and a man talking from inside.

"Why are you crying? Follow me to ensure that you wear gold and silver, and drink spicy food. I will also arrange for your family. It is your blessing to be seen by me. Come on, beauty, let me love you well .”

Then there was the sound of clothes being torn, the woman's cry, and the man's obscenities.

As soon as Jing Yi heard it, she knew that this must be the girl Zhao Kui snatched back, Jing Yi clenched her fists to suppress herself.They can't expose now, they can't save this girl.Otherwise, she would have to blow Zhao Kui's head off.

Xiao Yilin didn't want the little girl to hear this, so he gently pulled her and the two of them left the courtyard to find the main courtyard.

Soon they found the main courtyard.This courtyard is where Zhao Kui lives, but Zhao Kui is currently in another courtyard, so there is no one in this courtyard.

They quickly found the study.

Jing Yi whispered: "Brother Xiao, you watch out for me at the gate of the courtyard, and I will go into the study to find something. If someone comes, you meow like a cat. Can cats meow?"

The corners of Xiao Yilin's mouth twitched when he heard this, it was true to ask him to meow like a prince, but now is a special moment, so that's the only way to do it.

Xiao Yilin nodded, "Be careful when you go in, I'll watch out for you outside."

After entering the study alone, Jing Yi found the oil lamp in the study and lit it with a torch.

Jing Yi looked around at the furnishings in the study by the light of the oil lamp.Apart from a set of tables and chairs, the most conspicuous thing in this study room is that the whole wall is half bookshelves and half ancient shelves.

There are many books on the bookshelves, and there are also many antique ornaments on the Bogu shelf.

Jing Yi didn't rummage through the obvious, but went straight to the suspicious place and knocked on it.

For the ancients, Jing Yi knew too much, and Jing Yi could estimate where the ancients would hide important things.There is either a dark cabinet or a secret room in the study.Anyway, it is impossible to put confidential things on the bright side.
