Chapter 457 473. Help from colleagues 51
As the convoy moved slowly forward, the prefect and several of his officials became increasingly nervous.

At this moment, some people are already regretting that they should have stayed in Nanyue City at that time, so that they would not be held accountable before getting any credit.

"Sir," the concubine beside the prefect Mingzhi said nervously, tightly clutching the handkerchief in her hand, "This thing stinks extremely bad, it really needs to be sent to the palace."

The prefect closed his eyes and said, "Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. I have already written a memorial to the emperor before we set out. If I turn back halfway, I will be charged with deceiving the emperor.

Now we can only gamble that the saint can see it with his own eyes and believe us. In this way, even if there is no reward, this life can be saved. "

He was able to become the prefect, and he was not a fool. He regretted submitting the memorial so quickly in order to win credit, but the arrow has been shot and there is no turning back. He really had to go down this path to the end.

I didn't dare to say anything else. She was now tied to Lord Ming. Even if she didn't follow him, if he was convicted, they, the women, would not be able to escape.

The discussions on the roadside reached their ears. They no longer had the high spirits they had when they first set out, and everyone's face looked solemn.

Everyone was watching before, but as the smell became stronger, everyone covered their noses and moved away.

Yun Tutu and the others also watched from afar, "These people don't know if they will have a chance to go home."

Zhang Yaowen, "The death penalty may be avoided, but the punishment of life imprisonment is unlikely to be avoided."

They chose this road themselves, but they didn't say anything else. After the crowd dispersed, they continued shopping.

By the time they left the city in the afternoon, news had already come in that the prefect and his entourage had not entered the palace at all. The emperor knew that the things sent over were extremely smelly, and he was already annoyed.

He was also very curious about the so-called monster and whether its feet were really as magical as the legend said, so he sent four ministers to go and see what it was.

Officials who could become Shangshu were not fools. Before they saw it with their own eyes, they arranged for people to take the things out of the carriage and expose them to the public.

The prefect did not dare to let these officers take action because they did not know the seriousness of the situation and might lose their lives if they were stained by the liquid. So he let the yamen runners and coachman he brought with him take action.

Lao Tietou and his men were also dealing with these along the way, and of course they were more cautious. When the first tightly sealed centipede leg was exposed in front of everyone, several ministers were shocked.

If it is really not fake, with such a big foot, you can imagine how big the centipede must be.

But the smell was so bad that they felt dizzy from such a distance, not to mention those who were closer, who had already collapsed to the ground.

The guards attached to the ministers quickly carried them away and said, "My lords, this thing cannot be sent into the palace."

The four ministers rubbed their heads, no longer daring to be curious. They turned around and went into the palace, not forgetting to take Prefect Ming with them before leaving.

It is said that when the prefect Ming came out of the palace again, the black veil on his head was gone.

The several carriages he brought with him have been driven to the outskirts of Beijing, and it is said that deep pits will be dug to bury them.

Yun Tutu and his friends could still hear these discussions when they left the city.

Zhang Yaowen, "I didn't expect that our momentary negligence would cause so many problems later."

If those centipede legs had been dealt with at that time, it is possible that the prefect would not have been punished.

"This is human greed at work," Yun Tutu felt that the prefect and his men had brought this upon themselves. If they had reported the incident immediately when it happened, the court would have sent someone to take a look.

If it weren't for their arrival, who knows how many people in the entire Nanyue City would be implicated, and they might even become the meat of the ugly centipede. "This ending is already very good," Chen Yuxi also said, "At least the emperor only stripped him of his official position and did not punish him."

……

Yun Tutu and the others decided to return to the RV and go to the villa tomorrow morning.

They were living comfortably here, but the second young master Xu was busy until late at night, preparing the necessary gold, jewelry, medicinal materials and other items.

The next day, more than a dozen carriages drove out of the city.

The officers guarding the gate did not dare to stop him, because this man was Concubine Xu's younger brother. Even the dignitaries in the court had to give him some space, let alone small figures like them.

After leaving the city, the second young master Xu began to speed up and came to Xu Jiang's villa.

Zhang Yaowen and his team had already been waiting here, and had filled several houses with supplies ready for exchange.

Seeing that the Second Young Master Xu had laid out all the things and handed them over for them to check, Zhang Yaowen's impression of this man improved a little.

You have to know that some powerful people always like to use their power to oppress others, and then regret it at the last minute. They are considered to have met more sophisticated people.

"Please count the number. By the way, where are the things you mentioned?" The second young master Xu looked at the empty yard and raised his eyebrows at Zhang Yaowen.

He came here with sincerity. If Zhang Yaowen and the others dared to deceive him, their lives would end here.

Yun Tutu pushed open the door at the back and saw that the whole room was already full of things.

Yuntutu pointed to the doors next to him and said, "Except for this one, there are several other rooms as well. Check out the goods here."

Young Master Xu walked towards the room closest to him and pushed the door open gently. The room was indeed full of things as Yun Tutu had said.

He went in and checked them out. These things were exactly the same as the samples Zhang Yaowen provided him yesterday. It seemed that he had made the right bet this time.

"I'll ask someone to come and count the items right away." Everything here would be sold by him at a very high price, so each item had to be settled.

Zhang Yaowen made a gesture of invitation and brought Yun Tutu with him to the Eight Immortals Table, which was already filled with tea and drinks. They were all free today and had plenty of time to wait.

The second young master Xu obviously came prepared. The people he brought this time were well-trained to carry things out of the room, and there were also people specifically responsible for counting and checking the quality.

Seeing that his subordinates were taking care of the matter, the second son of the Xu family began to build relationships with Zhang Yaowen and the others. These people were able to come up with so many unprecedented good things, and he believed that there would be other things in the future.

Zhang Yaowen and his companions looked at the gold, silver and medicinal materials exchanged this time with satisfaction, especially the Chinese medicinal materials, which were purely wild and had no adulteration.

Yun Tutu felt a little regretful that she did not study medicine and could not put these things to good use. Otherwise, she would have wanted to keep some of them. After all, it is impossible for people not to get sick if they eat grains.

Although Zhang Yaowen and the others don’t know if they will have the chance to come to this dimension next time or when they will be able to come, they still have to maintain this relationship.

Both of them wanted to be friends, and they had a very pleasant conversation.

After everything was loaded into the car, Mr. Xu seemed reluctant to leave.
