Chapter 527 No more looting
After giving Xin Yi a look, the two turned over and jumped into the shadow where the moonlight couldn't even shine, and left the Pingxing government office quietly.

...

Back at the inn, Chi Xinian took a pen and briefly described what he saw and heard today into a letter.

Although the fog has not been cleared yet, she still believes that it is necessary to inform Yan Chujing of these situations.Especially what Xu Zhifu said to his housekeeper today - he had no intention of concealing the water bandits, but he was afraid that someone would manipulate him behind the scenes, so that the papers with the truth could not be delivered to His Majesty, so he boldly concealed it.

At first glance, there was nothing wrong with this statement, and it even matched her and Yan Chujing's initial analysis.

At first, Yan Chujing and she analyzed that well-trained water bandits were able to plunder the court materials so easily. On the one hand, it was because someone was behind the command, and on the other hand, they might have internal support in the government.

In this way, Xu Zhifu looked forward and backward, and it seemed that there was no problem.

But after thinking about it, Chi Xinian felt strange again.The magistrate of this prefecture is an official of the fourth rank, and has the right to hand over the paper directly to the emperor.

The brochure about the flood at the very beginning was handed directly to Yan Chujing, without going through all the screening at all...

So what is the magistrate Xu afraid of?

Could it be that the ability of the person behind the scenes is so great that he can directly manipulate those scriptures that can be heard by the sky?Could this matter really have something to do with Xue Qin?
Chi Xinian's thoughts turned a lot, and finally he simply listed out all the things he had heard and the strange things in his heart.

Things are getting weirder and weirder. Yan Chujing is thousands of miles away, and the news is not as good as hers. She must not let go of any details that are helpful to him.

If Xue Qin really did this behind his back, he should be mentally prepared in advance.

After reading the written letter again and confirming that there were no problems, Chi Xinian immediately sealed the envelope and handed it out by means of a flying eagle.

Watching the eagle fly into the night, Chi Xinian, who was leaning against the window, couldn't help sighing softly.

The night before dawn is the darkest.

I only hope that in her line of work, she can clear the fog as soon as possible and see the light of dawn.

...

In the next two or three days, Chi Xinian and the others wandered around Pingcheng and its surrounding counties and towns.

On the one hand, it is to record the real situation of the flood disaster, so as to prevent any inaccuracies in the documents reported by Xu Zhifu.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner under Chi Xinian's arrangement, and she also learned a lot about the water bandits on the Minjiang River.

During this period, another interesting thing happened—the relief supplies from the imperial court were not looted again. With the emergency food, the lives of the refugees and the common people really improved.

Only the shop boy was trembling when he told Chi Xinian the news that was completely different from what he had expected.

I'm afraid that this group of quacks who walk the rivers and lakes are unreasonable, and they will be slaughtered by him directly with their knives in their hands.

After all, he had swearingly told him the story of the water bandits staring at the government.

Chi Xinian, the butcher, was not good at it. She was very happy when all the relief supplies arrived safely and were in the hands of ordinary people in need.

However, after glancing at the trembling person, she still pretended to be deep and said: "Didn't you say that the water bandits are keeping an eye on the official robbery? Why is there no movement again? Are you lying to me?"
