Chapter 297 Plague Village

Ye Chi who heard the whole process: ...

Is this still the black-faced general who didn't buy oil and salt and did everything business-like?

Our Highness seems to be getting more and more proficient in fooling people, oh, not subduing people!

When General Guan first came here, he still had a hard-faced appearance that no one loved, but these days, in Liang Di's words, he is definitely a little fanboy!

The driver was still a little nervous while waiting for the weighing, for fear that this was a trap and he would never return.

As a result, when all the money was in hand, no one paid any attention to him, and he was sent away after the money and goods were settled.

He cheerfully counted the number of people in line, and drove away in an empty carriage. After he left, the shadow standing by the roadside looked at the empty carriage in doubt: Didn't it mean that the crown prince was chosen by the pavilion master?How come you are being taken advantage of?

Having regained his freedom, he decisively spread the news of these days.

What he didn't know was that under the same carriage, where he had been not long ago, there was someone lying down now.

The coachman who finished his errand drove into the city humming a little song all the way, unaware that he brought someone back with him.

Ye Mei found an opportunity under the car where no one was around, let go of her hand and rolled on the spot, hid in a hidden place, and came out again when the driver was far away.

At this time, in Xiao Yunzhi's tent, he was looking at the rice delivered by the coachman, and his expression was not very happy.

Ye Yan asked: "Your Highness, is there a problem with this rice?"

Xiao Yunzhi pinched a small handful, put it under his nose and smelled it, and his expression became more serious: "Look again."

He originally thought that he would use this method to lure the money-grubbing Sheriff He to hand over the food he had hidden, but things didn't seem that simple...

As expected, the situation in Lunan was complicated, but fortunately Jinxiu was not allowed to follow.

"Wait for news from Ye Mei first."

Jinxiu, who was on her way, saw Boya with her head upright on a treetop during a break in the middle of the journey.

Ye Yao, who happened to be passing by, was about to draw his bow as soon as his eyes lit up: "Game!"

Jinxiu turned her head to look at him silently, and waved Boya to leave temporarily: "Friendly reminder, for your safety, don't eat wild animals indiscriminately."

Compared with carrier pigeons and fast horses, Boya is more efficient, and because of this, Geli will only use it in emergencies.

Not long after reading the news, Jinxiu wrote back: "If he wants to buy it, you should sell it; if he wants to sell it, you should buy it."

No matter how tacitly they understand, it is impossible to guess what Xiao Yunzhi's plan is at this moment, but anyway, no matter what he wants to do, he just needs to give his full support.

Although the members of the dark pavilion who received the news were a little puzzled, they followed the order of the pavilion master.

It just so happened that the fifth prince had just intercepted the grain that the fifth prince had brought from the cheap pit in the capital, and they were worried that they would not be able to send it into the city. Now, if it is delivered to the prince, it is equivalent to sending it directly to the mouths of the people.

In the city, the members of the secret cabinet led by Mo Xiang'an have discovered that the governor of the He county is tricky in ordering the people to obey orders - He Neng actually arrested most of the old, weak, women and children in the city, and locked them in the so-called "plague village" .

It is said to be a village, but it actually contains a small half of the county.

Governor He set up roadblocks and guards in the most desolate place north of the county city, and hastily hung up the sign of "Plague Village", which is specially used to house the useless old, weak, sick and disabled.

Firstly, filial piety can be used to sway the young and middle-aged people who are really useful.

Secondly, Governor He felt that such people were born weak, and it would be a matter of course if they couldn't hold on to death, and it would be easy to explain to the court.

Thirdly, maybe Governor He wished that these people would starve to death in Plague Village so that he could save some food for him.

Not long after, Plague Village welcomed a new guest.

Ye Mei complained in her heart as she walked - what a bad name!

I'm afraid that others don't know that the people here are sick!
To cover it up, there is no silver here, and fake ones can no longer be faked!
However, when he just walked to the gate of the so-called plague village, an unpleasant stench suddenly rushed into his nostrils.

Along with the stench, there were also the sounds of the guards chatting.
