I want to be a good minister

Chapter 338 The Boy You Saw 5, Lord
Therefore, in an instant, Xia Wentao had calmed down, and he had already established a fact in his heart, that is, the mysterious person who appeared suddenly did not want his life, but wanted to take something out of his mouth.

Xia Wentao's heart slowly returned to its original position, and his eyes swept away slightly, only seeing a corner of the black robe.

"This good man, if you have something to say-" Xia Wentao said.

Ask for money?What's more, their camp is stationed here, and all the adults eat and live with the laborers. It is normal not to take a shower for a few days, and the clothes they wear are no different from ordinary people.

Even though Xia Wentao only caught a glimpse of a corner, he could see that the clothes were made of exquisite materials, not for money. Xia Wentao didn't think he had such a big face to alarm these people.

Then, these people come here for only one purpose.

The blade on the neck was one centimeter deeper, and when Xia Wentao really felt the tingling pain from his skin, he already had an answer in his heart.

These people are here for Mr. Anxiu.

Then, Xia Wentao's face panicked, and his body trembled with all his strength, making people feel that the previous composure was just an illusion, but now he woke up from his sleep and realized what happened.

"I said, this good man, we are all poor officials and have no money—" Xia Wentao said immediately, "Look, which official with a reputation is sent to such a ghostly place."

"Shut up, you can answer whatever I ask you?" A cold voice came from behind, like the frost of Shen Ye.

Xia Wentao nodded sharply.

"Hero, hero, you say it, just say it, Ben, I must know everything, and I can say everything." Xia Wentao vividly expressed a local official who was overly frightened and as timid as a mouse.

"Has there ever been someone from Fudu in Lingze County?" A voice came from behind.

"Yes, yes, half a month ago, one of the disaster relief ministers sent by the imperial court came from Lingze County—Master Yu. Oh, not one, not one, and fifty or sixty soldiers came together." Xia Wentao forehead The beads of sweat on his face were really neat, and in the darkness, the man in black behind him frowned.

"But there are other people?" They have checked the details of Marquis Yu, and they are old acquaintances with the Governor Xia of Kuishan County, so it is possible for the two to join together.

"Who else? Good man, who are you looking for? I know this place well, you tell me, I will help you find it, as long as you don't kill me." Xia Wentao said quickly, his tone panicked and full of fear.

"Do your job well..." The blade on the neck disappeared in an instant, and Xia Wentao turned around again, but there was no figure of the man in black behind him, and he was stunned in the darkness for a long time.

No, next time you wait for Master Cen to come, you must remind Master Cen.

Cen Xi's carriage ran away from the construction site of the embankment, but on the way, the rain became heavier and heavier, and even the official road was submerged immediately, and the horses pulling the cart neighed and refused to move forward.

"Brothers, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, why don't you find a place to shelter from the rain and leave tomorrow—" Cen Xi lifted the curtain of the car.

The two soldiers were really looking forward to it. It was really difficult to go on under such heavy rain, but looking around, they found it difficult again.

"My lord, there is no village in this area, we can only rush back to the city." The soldier said loudly in the rain.

"There is a cave entrance in Gengshan Mountain on the left, let's go there to take shelter for tonight—" Cen Xi pointed to the south and said, the soldiers were a little puzzled, would it be dangerous to walk into the mountains under such heavy rain?
But the rain was too heavy, and it was impossible to continue on the road, so he gritted his teeth, got out of the car, and led the horse towards the foot of the mountain beside him.

Sure enough, as Cen Xi said, a very spacious cave was found at the foot of Gengshan Mountain. The two soldiers were very surprised to see the cave. If Cen Xi hadn't shown the way, no one would have been able to find it on such a rainy night.

"Jing has carefully studied the map of Gengshan, so he knows that there is a cave here—" Cen Xi explained "patiently" to the curious and adored faces of the two.

"I see, Lord Cen, I saw you reading all day, so I know you must be very knowledgeable." The two of them have spent the past few days with Cen Xi, and they also know that Lord Cen is very easy-going and never judges you because of his status. Bian and the others spoke so modestly in the past, after the two of them finished speaking, they immediately tidied up the cave cleverly and made a clean place for Cen Xi and An Xiujun.

The carriage was parked at the entrance of the cave, and the two soldiers also lived not far from the entrance of the cave with great interest.

With outsiders around, it was inconvenient for Cen Xi to take things out of the package, but fortunately, she had made preparations at the very beginning. At this time, she just brought out a few sets of clean clothes from the carriage, covered a corner with the curtain, and started changing. clothing.

After Cen Xi changed his clothes, An Xiujun had already fallen asleep. Cen Xi glanced at the reputation in the system, and it had reached 800 at this time, and he could exchange two bottles of spiritual potion, and this matter could not be delayed.

"Your Highness, drink some water before you go to sleep—" Cen Xi called softly, adding the potion of spiritual power into the teacup. The man was in a deep sleep, and opened his eyes vaguely, allowing Cen Xi to pour the water into it , fell asleep again.

Cen Xi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw An Xiujun's mental strength suddenly rose to 66.

The revolution has not yet succeeded, and it is still short of 34 mental strength, so we still have to continue to work hard.

Three days later, Cen Xi came back with a roll of blueprints. Like the previous visits, Master Xia looked at the young man who was buried in the blueprints, he hesitated to speak, but he still mustered up the courage to go forward.

"Lord Cen—" Master Xia glanced at the carriage, and the two soldiers who came with the carriage seemed to be accompanied by Mr. An Xiu.

However, Mr. An Xiu never got out of the carriage, presumably to hide his identity, and Mr. Cen always took Mr. An Xiu by his side no matter where he went, it seemed that he was still worried.

"Lord Xia, what's the matter?" Cen Xi put down the blueprint in his hand and asked.

Xia Wentao immediately told what happened that night, Cen Xi was silent for a moment after listening, and frowned slightly, she had been very careful all the way, and she thought that there was not a single mistake.The other party actually chased here from Lingze County, which shows that they must have some clues about them.

"Master Cen, don't worry, that person doesn't look very sure, he was fooled by a few words from the subordinate." Xia Wentao said immediately.

"Thanks to Master Xia's vigilance, Jing will be more careful." Cen Xi nodded, it seems that she has to be more careful, especially at this time.

"No?" The leader of the man in black, who couldn't wait for the news, was very dissatisfied with the answer. When he was dissatisfied, Zhong Qi immediately knelt on the ground.

"My subordinates rushed to the site where the dam was built overnight, but did not find any trace." Zhongqi replied truthfully.

"That is to say, the national teacher's induction is wrong, if so..." If this is the case, then the national teacher said that His Highness's safety is not reliable.

"Leave someone in Lingze County, pretending to be among the soldiers—"

"Yes—" Zhongqi withdrew.
