Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 132 The Man's Mouth Deceiving Ghost
Cheng Han left Limu Town and returned to Jinling, but Xu Ye still wanted to stay there.Cheng Fu received his safety letter.I thought the other party was going to tell her about the situation in Limu Town and his experience, but I didn't expect that the whole article would be about these days. He finally thought of what the child's nickname is, what is his first name, and if it is a daughter, what should he learn? Then take...five sheets of paper, Cheng Fu's eyes are big.

"The number of casualties is considered civil unrest, but most of the deaths were from those families, and they did not report to the government. The government can do very little in the local area. If we want to manage it, we have to start with the people's livelihood, but Ding Da was seriously injured. Now only It's good enough to eat."

Cheng Fu was surprised, "Then Xu Liu can't come back first?" For this reason, even if the government is not good at getting involved in other people's family affairs, there must be ordinary people in the local area who are not from these families, affecting their livelihood. of.

How could Cheng Han not know, "Luo Shen didn't feel good about letting him go down alone. Brother Xu would definitely get involved if he was exposed. His people have already crossed the prefect of Jinling to send news to the capital. He didn't come back because he was investigating another matter." It's urgent."

Cheng Fu knew that the little brother would not talk if he continued to ask, so he sent him back to the house to rest.

Capital
It snowed heavily all night, and the palace was busy with snow removal and anti-slip work. Emperor Chengqi skipped the morning court today and went to the imperial study by himself.Last night, the [-] miles from the prefect of Yangzhou came to him urgently. There was a civil disturbance in Limu Town, Dongqiao County, under the rule of Jinling Prefecture. Xu Ye, the prefect of Jinling, was ordered by Luo Can, the prefect of Jinling, to quell the chaos by himself. He disappeared for several days and has not been heard of since. No news.

At that time Xu Ze was discussing disaster relief matters with the left and right ministers and people from the household department in the imperial study. He even fainted when he heard the news, and now he is still recuperating at home.

"The magistrate of Yangzhou, I remember that he is from Lao Qi." Looking at the thick snow outside the window, Emperor Chengqi was thoughtful.

Dongqiao County is adjacent to Changfeng County under the rule of Yangzhou. The magistrate of Yangzhou said that he happened to go to Changfeng County to inspect the granary. Later, he also wrote to the prefect of Jinling, and the other party replied that the civil unrest was not a big problem, and Xu Tongzhi could handle it well.

The magistrate of Yangzhou was very smart. He knew that he was acting on behalf of Yuezu, so he attached a reply letter from Luo Shen, the prefect of Jinling, to prove that he did not lie, and the memorial only stated what he knew.

"Xujia Xiaoliu can't do anything wrong."

Changshun bowed slightly, "Xu Tongzhi must be auspicious."

"If he loses his son in middle age, he won't be able to survive." The loss of his wife in his early years almost made it hard for him, Xu Ye is now Xu Ze's only hope.

Xufu
Xu Jiancheng, who was distressed by the emperor, was lying on the warm bed at the moment, flipping through "White Crane Daoist" with his legs crossed, and finally re-watched it in some free time.Xu Jin sat by the bed and peeled the oranges for him, the small petals were given to Xu Ze, and the big petals ate by himself.

"That's right, I said everyone should rest."

"I don't see anyone, you sent it away for me." Guang received several carts of supplements early this morning, and there was an endless stream of visiting people, so Xu Jin helped him socialize one by one.

"The emperor still wants to see you." Xu Jin picked up the manuscript next to him and flipped through it.

He saw his younger brother holding this all day long, so he didn't know what he was talking about, but he knew that many people in Beijing were talking about it.

Mrs. Pang brought Xu Xiaoba over, and went back to her master by the way. Hearing that Xu Jin and Xu Ze brothers were lying on the bed together and reading a book, she immediately gave up the idea.She is a sister-in-law, and it is not convenient for her to enter the inner room, so she can only talk to the people in the outer room.

"His fifth uncle, the meat from Jinling is almost gone. It's almost the Chinese New Year, so I don't know where I can get some." After eating Lianghexuan's meat, it is difficult to settle for ordinary meat.

There was the sound of turning the pages of the book and Xu Xiaoba pestered his father to ask how to pronounce the word "crane".

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, she's on her way." Cheng Fu's letter was rather urgent, and she didn't mention anything other than Xu Ye's whereabouts, but Song Xinyi, the steward of Lianghexuan, came in person and said that it was cold, and there were no roads by water or land. It's not easy to go, it will take some time.

With Xu Ze's words, Pang's peace of mind, if there are more of these batches, she would like some of them to go back to her natal family.

"His fifth uncle, don't you really need to call the imperial doctor over?" In his memory, it seems that Xu Ze never asked for leave due to illness.

Today, clan relatives, courtiers, famous and unknown people in Xungui capital either came in person, or sent decent stewards to send expensive supplements without money, saying that they could not accept them, and some people left their things and left. She had been busy all morning, her face was stiff with laughter, and now the second wife, Mrs. Tian, ​​is still in the warehouse.

Xu Jin's voice came, "The imperial physician will come by himself." He took his pulse last night in the palace, and according to the importance Emperor Chengqi attached to Xu Ze, the imperial physician must come every day until Xu Ze is healed.

"Will the Sixth Young Master come back to celebrate the New Year?" Xu Ye didn't spend the New Year at home every year, but he didn't see anyone for a long year, which made Pang wonder.

Before Xu Ze got impatient, his elder brother couldn't take it anymore, put the book on the pillow, got out of bed, pulled his son up and strode out, and took the mother and son out of the fifth room in a short while.Xu Zemei flipped through the book happily, and didn't even pay attention to Xu Jin's return.

Last night, Emperor Chengqi ordered Jinlingwei to immediately go to Dongqiao County to find Xu Tongzhi. Early this morning, the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Officials also prepared candidates for the imperial envoy. One of them has a circle drawn on his name.

Xu Ze has not received a letter from Xu Ye so far, but the people around Xu Ye sent him news not long ago.

The civil unrest in Limu Town was caused by disputes between local forces, but someone blew up the mountain with gunpowder, and a small mountain village was directly destroyed by rubble.After the incident, no one reported it to the authorities, and the self-help depended on the continuous running of the nearby lonely households. Unfortunately, the cold weather lacked medicine, and the manpower was insufficient. Only seven villagers survived.

These villagers are not domestic slaves of the local forces, but ordinary good people.The good home suddenly disappeared, and those who survived couldn't bear the blow. Some went crazy, and for two nights they couldn't survive and jumped into the icy river one after the other.

When Xu Ye found them, the five of them were nestled in Orion's warehouse, their eyes glazed over, half dead.After he paid Orion to find a doctor, he went to investigate the source of the gunpowder, which was why he hid his whereabouts.

The people who followed Xu Ye also said that Luo Shen asked Xu Ye to go to the civilians for an ulterior purpose. Otherwise, knowing that the trip was dangerous, why did he only let him bring two officials, and after the officials returned to Jinling for help, Luo Can not only Instead of doing so, he kept the two officials and left Xu Ye to fend for himself in the chaos of the people.

Xu Ze was also curious about what the hell Luo Shen was doing. He belonged to the prince. If targeting Xu Ye was the prince's intention, then Xu Ze didn't mind helping the emperor reconsider the candidate for the crown prince.

"Liang Baihe is so pitiful, how could he have such a father." Xu Jinjin who was lying beside him sat up.

Xu Ze squinted his eyes, "If Xu Ba was an ordinary child like Liang Baihe, you would be partial, right?"

Xu Jin waved his hand, "Eccentricity depends on how many children you have. This story tells us not to have so many children."

Xu Ze ran through the progress of the Xu family's succession task in his mind. He only gave birth to one Xu Liu, and Xu Xiaoba is not the youngest in the family anymore. There are not many brothers and children, and the rest are all Xu Jin's. ...

Slowly gave his elder brother a sympathetic look, "Yes, it's enough to keep just one."

Dongqiao County

Xu Ye, who had been hiding with Ding Da in the small wasteland in the county town for many days, was looking forward to receiving a letter from Cheng Fu most every day. The little girl babbled that Jinling was very cold, it seemed that it was going to snow heavily this year, and she asked him to go home early. Make hot pot for him.In addition to the letter, there are clothes to keep out the cold, and a pile of dry food.

Dinda was not as comfortable as him. Although he was warm with food and drink, he really didn't have that kind of care.

"Why isn't Jinling Guard here yet?" There was no chaos in the county town, but Limu Town was over, and Ding Da still didn't know what was going to happen to him.It's just that now he's seriously injured and can't move, and he can't save anything.

Xu Ye received the letter, took a piece of jerky and put it in his mouth, "Soon." Only when Jin Lingwei came out, could he do the next thing.

Finish early and go home early, his little girl is still waiting for him to go back to enjoy the snow.

On the day Jinling Guard received the imperial order, it immediately dispatched 3000 people to Limu Town. The civil unrest was suppressed instantly, and some rioters were taken to the county government and held in custody until the imperial envoys arrived.Luo Shen only received the news after Jinlingwei left the camp, and was so frightened that he fell down on a chair.He didn't care to find out who was the person who transferred him, so he got on his horse and rushed to Dongqiao County.

When he arrived at the county government office, Xu Ye had already brought people back to Limu Town to search for the location of the suspected gunpowder depot.The left-behind Jinling Wei Qian household head did not tell Luo Shen the whereabouts of Xu Ye and his party, nor allowed him to leave, so he stayed in the county government office and waited for the imperial envoy with the big guys.

Gunpowder cannot be developed privately in Dai Viet. When making fireworks and firecrackers in workshops, the amount used and the finished product must be registered with the government.Of course, it is impossible to guard against it completely. Alchemists use it to make alchemy and hide in deep mountains and old forests. They can't catch them one by one; .But if someone exposes it, exile is the lightest thing.

Xu Ye led Jinling Guard's men to storm the gunpowder cache with lightning speed, they were also arrested, and the imperial envoys dealt with the rest.He didn't want to delay for a moment, and braved the howling wind and snow to return to the county seat. Before he could take a sip of hot water, he was scolded by Luo Shen.

Accusing him of not reporting back immediately when such a big incident happened in Limu Town, and keeping him in the dark, whether he is still a superior official in his eyes.Xu Ye explained in a leisurely manner that after learning about the situation in Limu Town, he immediately sent someone back to Jinling to report, requesting assistance from the Jinling Guard.He also asked if the two officials had followed, so that they could confront each other.

At first, Luo Can talked about him from left to right, but later saw that Jinling Weidu was confused, so he boldly skipped this question and continued to accuse Xu Ye sharply.Said that he relied on Xu Jiancheng's support to be the top official, and in order to delay the military situation in order to claim credit, he caused such a large casualty in Limu Town. Later, he cried bitterly, kneeling outside the yamen and clutching his chest to say sorry to the emperor.

"I have to go back to Jinling, and I'll come back when the imperial envoy arrives." Xu Ye ignored Luo Shen and said to the Jinling Guards on his own.

"You want to escape?" Luo Shen was shocked.

Xu Ye smiled warmly, "I'm waiting for you to continue to arrange my time."

"It's not good for Mr. Xu to leave at this time?" The people of Jinlingwei didn't really want to let him go.

"Master Luo is here, I am here, who cares about Jinling Mansion? Otherwise, I will stay, and you will let Lord Luo go back?" The imperial envoy will arrive soon, and Luo Can wants to keep Wu Shamao and will not leave or dare to leave.

The Jinling Guard stopped talking. Of course they wanted to keep Xu Ye, who was reliable, but Luo Shen was the prefect of Jinling, and Xu Ye was right. The prefect and Tongzhi are both in Dongqiao County. Who is in charge of Jinling City?
Cheng Zhai
"Let me just say, a man's mouth is deceitful, you see Cheng Han's sneaky look, he must want to leave me and go to Mr. Lao Shizi to spend the New Year with others. Can't he invite Mr. to Jinling?" , such a big person can’t turn his head. There are also Xu Liu who said that they want to come back, and they all said that there is no one after hundreds of times. I think I’ll do it myself.

"Where is Chang'an?" Several maids sitting on the porch doing needlework frowned.

Cheng Fu kicked the snowman that had just been built, and stared back at Luo Xing who was in a daze, "Go."

"...Are you sure?" Chang'an and Jinling asked one by one.

"She's not going anywhere." Xu Ye strode over drenched.

The little girl felt that this scene seemed familiar...

The boy who suddenly appeared at the gate of Cheng's small courtyard on Shuimen Street that year.
