Empress: The Old Emperor's Way to Pursue His Wife

Chapter 112 Shaking (8)

A few days later, Xiao Yi, accompanied by Qiu Yunzhu, visited all the shops on Donghang Street, and ate all the most distinctive restaurants among them.

The two of them ate, drank, and had fun for several days, and finally the brigade transporting the relief money entered Dongzhou City mightily.

Xiao Yi dragged Qiu Yunzhu along with the spectators from all over the city to watch the team enter the city together. As a result, the team arrived in front of the state and county mansion, and a group of soldiers rode tall horses from outside the city to the state and county mansion.

Due to the sudden incident, the onlookers were frightened, and the orderly onlookers lost their way, causing a great chaos.But the person who ran at the front not only did not slow down because of the chaos of the crowd, but instead swung his whip and threw away the civilians who blocked his way one by one.

Xiao Yi looked at the man in helmet and armor on the horse, and frowned. Could this man be Wu Hai, General of the Dongzhou Garrison?

Sure enough, he is a decisive general, hum!He can also kill ordinary people next time. It seems that in this East Continent these years, he has become ambitious and has completely become the overlord of one party.

A figure flashed past in front of her eyes, Xiao Yi covered her eyes with a headache and did not dare to look, she knew that something bad would happen if she came with Qiu Yunzhu.

Qiu Yunzhu flew forward and grabbed the whip that Wu Hai was waving, forcing Wu Hai to stop and grab the whip with her.

After a while, Qiu Yunzhu pulled the tail of the whip, and stood firmly in front of Wu Hai's horse frame. Wu Hai didn't take the whip out of Qiu Yunzhu's hand even after pulling for a long time.

Wu Hai saw that he couldn't even fight a little girl in front of so many people, he lost his face and let go of the whip, and the soldiers and horses following behind ran forward and surrounded Qiu Yunzhu.

Qiu Yunzhu was proud of herself at first, seeing so many soldiers and horses surrounding her, she was still a child after all, she couldn't help but turn pale with fright.

Wu Hai laughed loudly: "Where did the little yellow-haired girl come from, she dared to be so arrogant, hum! I will let you know what it means to be a dragon and not to be disobedient."

The officers surrounding Qiu Yunzhu hung up their whips, and it was obvious that they were going to whip Qiu Yunzhu together.

Xiao Yi's face was cold, thinking that she had grown up in the capital for so many years, traveled all over the world for so many years, and had never seen such an arrogant person as Wu Hai, so she really didn't know how he became the general.

"Give it to me." Wu Hai raised his right hand high, swung it down fiercely, and shouted: "Hit!"

"General Wu, you really don't take the truth too seriously...cough cough...how dare you beat me, a citizen of Great Chu, at will in front of the truth, cough cough..."

The moderate volume, mixed with a bit of coughing, is exactly the iconic image of Da Chu Mo Xiangye.

Mo Yanxiao walked out slowly from the prefecture's mansion. Compared with Wu Hai in plain clothes, he had a world of difference in aura.

Xiao Yi supported her forehead, and said in her heart: Mo Yanxiao, Mo Yanxiao, if you want to suppress others, you should at least put on an official uniform, so that you can severely suppress Wu Haiyi from the official uniform and title.

All the officers heard the sound, but the whips in their hands still swung down in unison, dozens of whips were all swung on Qiu Yunzhu's petite body, and a cry of pain seemed to be mocking Mo Yanxiao's overestimation.

Wu Hai rode on the horse and said with a smile, "Master Mo?"

Wu Hai was not surprised that Mo Yanxiao knew his identity, and took it for granted.

"Ah."

"It's because of my lack of strict discipline that my subordinates beat this little girl after Mo Xiangye called out." Wu Haite directly provoked, not paying attention to Mo Yanxiao at all.

After being hit by dozens of whips, Qiu Yunzhu fell to the ground powerlessly, and when the sharp pain passed, she bit her lips and didn't even groan.

"Yunzhu." Qiu Yuwei, dressed in state and county official uniform, rushed across the horse formation to pick up Qiu Yunzhu who fell on the ground.

"Brother, I, I'm fine." Qiu Yunzhu passed out in Qiu Yuwei's arms, breathing very weakly.

Li Zhong, who was originally hiding in the dark, rushed to the front of the crowd and was stopped by Xiao Yi.

"Master." The honorific came out of Li Zhong's mouth, Xiao Yi shook her head, telling him to be calm.

Next, it's time to open the box and check the silver.

"This little girl is actually the sister of Qiuzhou County, Qiuzhou County, I'm sorry." Wu Hai said so, but in this tone, there was no trace of regret at all.

Qiu Yuwei ignored it, holding Qiu Yunzhu in his arms and beckoning Bao Shuhua to come and see, he was about to walk into the state and county mansion.

Wu Hai pulled the reins, and the horse directly cut off Qiu Yuwei's path.

"Qiuzhou County, Mo Xiang escorted the disaster relief money here today, should you check with this official?" With a strong tone, there was no room for refutation.

Looking at Qiu Yunzhu in his arms, Qiu Yuwei frowned.

Bao Shuhua came over. "Miss Qiu, leave it to me."

Bao Shuhua took Qiu Yunzhu away, and Mo Yanxiao covered his mouth and coughed lightly, and walked down from the gate of the state and county mansion. "General Wu's intention is that he thought that the relief money was sent, and you and Qiuzhou County both checked it together?"

Mo Yanxiao walked up to Qiu Yuwei and stood still, Wu Hai was still riding on the horse. With a mighty and strong soldier figure plus a military horse, Mo Yanxiao and Qiu Yuwei looked like two fragile little dolls in front of Wu Hai.

Wu Hai cast a disdainful glance at Mo Yanxiao, "No."

Xiao Yi was taken aback by this natural attitude.

Mo Yanxiao didn't care. "Then, why this time?"

"Because I am happy to see the current Prime Minister." This is a ridiculous reason, and only Wu Hai can say it with a cheeky face.

Not to mention that he didn't salute when he saw Mo Yanxiao, but he didn't even plan to get off these horses.

Mo Yanxiao frowned and thought for a while, then called out, "Zheng Qi."

A middle-aged man wearing a third-rank bodyguard uniform walked up to Mo Yanxiao from the escort team, cupped his fists and bowed, "Here's the humble job."

Mo Yanxiao nodded and asked, "You escorted the disaster money all the way, but what happened?"

Seeing the change in Zheng Qi's expression, Xiao Yi really couldn't laugh or cry for Mo Yanxiao, this person was single-handedly picked by Mo Yanxiao, unexpectedly...

Zheng Qi suppressed his fear, and forced himself to be calm: "Report to the Prime Minister, there is nothing wrong."

"In this way, you will take General Wu to check it carefully."

"Yes." Zheng Qi took the order.

Wu Hai didn't know if he didn't care about it, or because he had strong limbs and a big brain. He didn't notice the word "General Wu" that Mo Yanxiao deliberately emphasized in his mouth, so he lifted his legs and got off the horse. The rest of the soldiers on the horse followed him. Dismount together.

They all fell to the ground with a loud sound.

Regarding this, Xiao Yi recalled what she had just seen, just from discipline and obedience, Wu Hai did have the majesty that a general should have.Xiao Yi admired this point very much.

"Qiuzhou County, please."

Qiu Yuwei didn't want to intervene at first, but Wu Hai didn't forget to grab him, so he just nodded and followed Wu Hai to check.

The boxes were opened one by one, and the boxes of stones were far more eye-catching than the gleaming white silver at this moment.

Stones... There was a lot of discussion, Xiao Yi glanced at her mouth bored, a little disappointed.

This is the framing method prepared by the group of moths, and it is too far-fetched. Could it be that they are just relying on this being in their territory, so they dare to do things like this?
"Master Mo..." Wu Hai wanted to speak out, but Mo Yanxiao was the first to shout: "Come on, take Zheng Qi down."

"What is Mo Xiangye trying to do?"

"The relief money was replaced with boxes of stones. The truth is that the relief money must be recovered."

"Humph! Lord Mo, as far as I know, this Zheng Qi is your confidant, Lord Mo. Didn't Xiang Mo's actions mean to cover up?"

"According to what General Wu said, it seems that the relief money was actually stolen by the guard."

"Hey, I didn't say that." Wu Hai twitched the corner of his mouth and opened his mouth and said, "Since Mo Xiang himself said so, come and take Zheng Qi down, as well as them."

A bunch of soldiers came to the state and county mansion at some point, and surrounded all the officers and soldiers escorting the relief money, even the crowds who were watching were unable to evacuate.
