Empress Jiangshan: The doctor's hand covers the sky

Chapter 109 Under the Curse
Ling Tianyue thought for a while, and said: "The magistrate of Dujiangyan falsely passed on the imperial court's order, increased taxes, and provoked people's grievances. Asking for money is the second crime; moreover, her molesting good men on the street is an insult to the prestige of the court. Each of them is a capital crime, or she should be sent to death row first, and then executed after reporting to the court."

In fact, with her current status and the Queen's love for her, even if she really killed the Zhizhou, there would be no problem, but she was worried that someone would follow suit and kill people who shouldn't be killed.

"As for Dujiangyan, let Zhizhou's deputy take care of it first, if it is corrupt and perverts the law," Ling Tianyue dragged out his tone, the light in his eyes was cold and cold, "We will still punish severely."

Gu Cheng felt that this method was feasible, so he nodded.

On the second day, the silver was exchanged for a lot of food, cloth and medicinal materials, and they continued to sail to Pingchuan.

Zhu Limo was not in the slightest shocked by what happened, but just joked with a smile: "Madam Ling is stealing my business now." Ling Tianyue brought more food than him.

When he said this, his expression was very frank, without any dissatisfaction.Ling Tianyue admired this person's calmness from the inside, and said with a smile: "Miss Zhuli, don't worry, I will check the situation first, if I don't want to rob, if I rob, I will rob it completely." A sly smile flashed across, "It's free."

If ordinary businessmen heard her words, they would probably vomit blood with anger, but Zhu Limo had a gentle attitude: "Let's wait and see."

After entering the city before dark, Ling Tianyue and Zhu Limo bid farewell and parted ways.

To her surprise, with so much food, the people of Pingchuan, who had been troubled by the drought for a long time, not only did not surround them like wolves, but instead gathered in one direction without any extra eyes.

Ling Tianyue dismounted and stopped an old man and asked, "Mother, where are you going?"

The old man took a look at Ling Tianyue and the people around her, and said, "Young lady, she must have come from other places. There is a drought in Pingchuan, and there is no food harvest. He Zhizhou personally distributes porridge in the city every day. This old man is going to beg for a bowl of porridge."

A faint smile appeared on Ling Tianyue's face, and she said to Gu Cheng: "It seems that there are still honest officials." After further investigation, if he is really a good official, he must be reused.

Just after Ling Tianyue finished speaking, she noticed that the crowd who were still walking just now slowed down. Headed by the old man, many people looked at her quietly.

Ling Tianyue smiled awkwardly, with doubts on her face: "Sorry, ma'am, I was talking too fast." Did she say something wrong?
The old man repeated with a serious face: "Miss is someone sent by the imperial court, right?"

Ling Tianyue didn't know why, so she hesitated to answer: "Yes—ah." Anyway, the Queen Mother sent her to relieve the disaster, as an imperial envoy.

The old man immediately said excitedly: "Girl, let us lead the way for you. He Zhizhou is a great official. He worked day and night for us in Pingchuan. Although there was a drought, no one died of starvation. The girl must report to the court." .”

"Girl, let me lead the horse for you." Someone took the rein from her hand.

"The girl has worked hard."

……

Ling Tianyue just realized that she was already surrounded by the crowd like stars holding the moon, and all the people around her were constantly praising He Zhizhou for being upright and honest, and for being kind to the people. porridge.

Those simple people kept asking her to repeat their gratitude, Gu Cheng was completely ignored.

He was very upset.

Those old men, wives, uncles, aunts and even children all rubbed against Ling Tianyue, both men and women, and they kept calling her girl, girl, didn't you see that there was a man beside her?

Gu Cheng hurriedly stood beside her, separating those people who were too passionate: "Men and women can't kiss each other! Do you understand?"

Ling Tianyue just looked at him gently, and said softly, "Cheng'er." The smile on his face was like the warmest and brightest sunshine.

Gu Cheng's dissatisfaction was instantly overwhelmed by this bright smile, and even the onlookers lost their minds for an instant.

This woman is so beautiful!No wonder my husband is so precious.

It was the old man who spoke first: "This is your husband, right?"

Ling Tianyue still smiled, and nodded generously in admission.

Only then did the corners of Gu Cheng's mouth turn up slightly, and when he saw the envious eyes of the crowd, he leaned close to her as if swearing sovereignty.

The old man had good eyesight, and immediately complimented him: "This gentleman is really lucky, to have such a spoiled wife."

……

Ling Tianyue listened to people's praise all the way, and saw He Zhizhou, who was attracting attention from a distance.

But, unexpectedly, He Chun was also there!
Standing in front of a big pot, wearing a veil and plain clothes, he scooped porridge earnestly and poured it into the bowls held by the people piously.

Ling Tianyue was a little nervous for a moment, and had the urge to run away.

The last thing she wanted was for Gu Cheng to meet a man with whom she had troubles.

"Young Master He, is Lord He there? The imperial court has sent someone here." Someone has already started shouting.

He Chun raised his head, and his gaze swept across the crowd, and landed on Ling Tianyue precisely. With a shake of his hand, the spoon fell into the pot.

Ling Tianyue was embarrassed: "Everyone go get the porridge first, our business is not in a hurry, not in a hurry." She felt that her waist was pinched by the person next to her indiscriminately.

"Tianyue's peach blossom luck is really prosperous." Gu Cheng whispered in her ear, outsiders seemed sweet, only Ling Tianyue heard the sound of gnashing of teeth.

Gu Cheng couldn't figure it out, Tianyue had only been in contact with that man a few times, what kind of spell could he put on to make him look at Tianyue with such affectionate eyes.

He Chun really wanted to go through the crowd, walk up to the woman who condensed the most dazzling light, and ask her gently: "Are you tired? Are you thirsty?..."

Those small caring greetings, but he knew that he had no position.He just quietly continued to pick up the spoon in his hand, and continued to distribute porridge with a forced smile.

Even though it was far away, Ling Tianyue could still see his loss.

But her heart just stayed there firmly, except for guilt, she was not moved.

Seeing her expression, Gu Cheng's nervous heart calmed down.

When He Zhizhou He Lian heard that the imperial envoy was coming, she hurried out to greet them, but when she saw the two of them, she was slightly taken aback, with suspicion in her eyes.

Ling Tianyue handed over the documents from the imperial court, He Lian took a quick look at them, and then saluted politely: "The imperial envoy is here, and the officials are far away from welcoming you, and I hope you will forgive me."

Ling Tianyue also said in an official tone: "He Zhizhou is serious. The imperial court sent me to help the disaster relief. Let's go to the government office to talk."

He Lian also had the same intention, and it was really inconvenient to speak here, so she left under the grateful eyes of the common people.

He Chun looked at the backs of the group of people, his body trembled slightly inaudibly, gritted his teeth, and then followed.
