Chapter 449 465. Help from colleagues 43
Butler Liu's expression became even more solemn. These were things that several officials were bringing with them to report on their missions. Could they have gone rotten?
But even if he asked Butler Liu to have someone open the box and check, he didn't have the courage to do so.
Besides being afraid of being blamed by his superiors, he was also afraid of these poisons.
"Butler Liu, what should we do now?" Several carriages at the back had stopped and some people were squatting on the ground, which allowed them to notice something unusual. Liquid had seeped down the floor of the carriages to the ground. Once the liquid reached the ground, it not only brought a fishy smell, but also caused the small weeds that sprouted from the ground to rot.
This matter was beyond the ability of Butler Liu, so he hurried to the front and woke up several adults who were still sleeping soundly.
The prefect and his men came to the back despite suppressing their anger. They had already written the memorial, and now they were carrying these things to the capital. Such trouble had arisen before they had even reached halfway.
"Butler Liu, you take care of it first. Don't stop along the way. Let's hurry to the Imperial City."
The prefect knew that the things inside might be decaying, but he had no way to deal with them. He hoped that he could still have a shell left for him when he arrived in the imperial capital, otherwise he would not be able to report to his superiors.
Butler Liu really wanted to cry but had no tears at this moment. He thought that following the master to the imperial city would bring him great benefits, but this was just the beginning and he was facing such a big difficulty. He didn't have the ability...
But Lord Ming would not tolerate any refusal, so he could only bite the bullet and order some yamen runners to find some clothes, straw, etc. to add another layer of padding.
As soon as the team stopped, the horses could no longer move. No matter how the coachman whipped them, the horses would not move.
"Even this horse is against me," Butler Liu could imagine how the master would scold him later.
Unexpectedly, after a while, Lord Ming did not look for him to scold him, but ordered the team to rest by the roadside.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they knew they could stop. The officials in front were lying in the carriage, so of course they didn't feel anything, but they had to be outside in the wind and sun, and couldn't even stretch their limbs. The first thing they did when they got off the carriage was to move their limbs.
Butler Liu asked everyone to dress warmly, and then opened the door of the first carriage. The smell of spices mixed with the stench of decay hit them in the face, and everyone was so scared that they quickly covered their mouths and noses.
"What should we do with this?" There was a large box in the carriage. When they were loading the carriage, they had three boxes stacked on top of each other. Needless to say, it was heavy, but taking the things inside out was not an easy task.
"Butler Liu, there is poison in this," the yamen runners who were called over refused to touch the hand no matter what. The poison was very strong and would destroy the whole hand if it touched it. They followed the adults to support their families, but they didn't want to lose their lives.
"Don't I know it's poisonous?" Butler Liu was also anxious when he saw that no one came forward to deal with it. "But someone has to do this, otherwise when the adults blame us, none of us will be able to escape."
Butler Liu really made the right bet. He used Lord Ming to pressure everyone. As expected, no one dared to say a word, but no one took the initiative to come forward to work.
Butler Liu turned around and fixed his eyes on Lao Tietou again, "Lao Tietou, you are the ones who discovered this matter, and no one can compete with you for the credit. I will tell Master Ming the truth. Now you and Ding Er should deal with this carriage and put more quilts underneath it."
Butler Liu felt that he had done his best. He even moved out all the quilts in his carriage and was willing to give the credit to Lao Tietou and the others. This was already sincere enough.
Lao Tietou and Ding Er shook their heads vigorously. Ding Er was so scared that he dared not say anything. Lao Tietou raised his skinny hands and said, "Butler Liu, it's not that I, Lao Tietou, want to be lazy, but you see, my arms don't have much flesh, and I don't have that much strength at all.
It takes more than a dozen people to load the stuff inside the truck, and Ding Er and I can't do it alone. Butler Liu, don't talk about your merits. I just have good intentions. I don't seek credit, but I just want to avoid mistakes."
Butler Liu cursed in his heart, this old man is really ungrateful.
But when they saw his skinny body and the look of disgust in his eyes, they knew that with just these two people, there was no way they could carry such a big box with the quilt underneath.
When he looked at the others, they all closed their eyes.
Butler Liu felt that his authority had been challenged. In the past, these people had always flattered him, but now when he needed them, they all avoided him.
He simply pointed at ten people and said, "A few of you go in and lift the boxes, and the two of you take the quilts and put them on top."
Although these people were dissatisfied, they did not dare to disobey. They carefully cleaned up the carriages. The sky was already turning white.
But the carriages of several adults stopped there to rest, and they didn't say they were going to set off, so no one dared to act on their own.
Some of them were smart and had already found a corner to rest their eyes, but some of them were more honest and were staying quietly beside the carriage.
Butler Liu yawned and began to assign some people to set up pots and cook. They wanted to eat in the next city, but they probably wouldn't be able to make it in time, so they just made something casual and made do for the time being.
Yun Tutu and the others also slept until noon. Thinking of the slow pace of retirement in front of them, Yun Tutu simply turned his gaze towards the mountain behind.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
Their purpose this time was not hunting, but to see if there were any rare medicinal herbs in the deep mountains.
After changing into tight clothes, the three of them quickly ran towards the mountain. Each of them had a medical atlas in his hand to supplement himself with knowledge from time to time.
The luck of Yun Tutu and the other two was not very good at first. They only had some insignificant medicinal herbs that could not be sold at a high price, and they could be found everywhere in later generations.
Just as I was wondering if I would return empty-handed this time, I saw Chen Yuxi pointing at the trees in front of me, "Does that tree look like a chestnut tree?"
Originally, Chen Yuxi didn't recognize it, but the thorn balls hanging on the tree made her think so.
Zhang Yaowen and his friends approached and saw that it was indeed the case. Some of the fruits were already ripe and fell to the ground. They crushed them gently with their feet, and the brown chestnuts were exposed in front of everyone. They were quite plump.
Yuntutu looked up at the chestnut tree that was about twenty meters tall and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, as if he hadn't eaten chestnuts for a while.
She decided that she wanted to eat chestnut chicken today. As for chicken, there were pheasants everywhere, so was there anything to worry about?
Zhang Yaowen noticed that Yun Tutu swallowed her saliva, and guessed what she was thinking. He took out a large bag from his storage ring and said, "Since you are here, don't go back empty-handed. Pick up some chestnuts. I will roast them for you later."
Yun Tutu looked at Zhang Yaowen in surprise, "Brother Zhang, it turns out that you are the one who is hiding your talents. You actually have this skill."
