Chapter 398 Cai Jing: After all, it was me who bore it all!
Chapter 398 Cai Jing: After all, it was me who bore it all!
The man in Taoist robe was speechless when he saw Miss Xuanxuan's angry expression.
"Haha, Captain Li, you are also a veteran of the Holy Mother Church!"
"We, the Holy Mother Church, do aim to overthrow the imperial court, but now...isn't the right time?"
"Have you been blinded by fame, fortune and wealth?!"
Miss Xuanxuan said coldly.
"Saint, forgive me!"
"Saint, please forgive me!"
"This matter is not decided by me!"
"It's really...it's really my subordinates who are messing around!"
"I will conduct a thorough investigation when I return and will find the perpetrators!"
"Saint, please forgive me!"
The man kept begging for mercy.
But Miss Xuanxuan didn't believe what he said at all!
He had heard about the character of Captain Li.
However, because the other party is indeed capable, he will become the helmsman!
In fact, she came to Luzhou County because she was worried about the leader here!
"Now that the news has spread, the imperial court will surely start to resist us!"
"With the current strength of the Holy Mother Church, do you think it is a match for the imperial army?"
"Captain Li, do you think you can fight against the imperial army alone?"
Miss Xuanxuan asked coldly.
"Please forgive me, Saint. I definitely did not mean that."
"I was also careless for a moment, which led to this situation!"
"Your subordinate...Your subordinate is willing to atone for your sins!"
"Please, Saint, give me a chance!"
Captain Li said this sincerely.
Seeing Captain Li like this, Miss Xuanxuan took a deep breath and said, "Captain Li, the incident in Luzhou County has already happened. The rest of the matter will be left to you to handle!"
"I...there is no other way!"
"You take care of yourself!"
……
After saying this, Miss Xuanxuan turned and left.
"Saint!"
"Saint, please don't leave!"
"Saint..."
Captain Li looked at Miss Xuanxuan's back as she left and kept calling out.
But Miss Xuanxuan didn't even turn her head!
After Miss Xuanxuan walked out of the teahouse and disappeared, Captain Li not only stopped shouting, but also curled up a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
If Miss Xuanxuan saw this scene, she would probably kill him!
At the same time, in the manor in the western suburbs of Luzhou County.
Liu Ruyan sat in the room, looking at the small porcelain bottle in her hand with an extremely complicated expression.
This small porcelain bottle was given to her by a refugee today!
And it was accompanied by a note.
The note said that this was a bottle of poison that would kill instantly upon contact with blood!
Moreover, he asked her to kill Jiang Chen as soon as possible, otherwise he would kill her parents!
This made Liu Ruyan fall into pain.
Through recent contact, Liu Ruyan feels that Jiang Chen is not a bad person!
Even a good person!
However, if she didn't take action against Jiang Chen, her parents might die!
How could she accept this!?
Just when Liu Ruyan was hesitating, she saw Jiang Chen and Xu Yunchang slowly walking out of the yard.
Liu Ruyan followed him out curiously.
But when they arrived at the gate of the yard, Liu Ruyan discovered that Jiang Chen was patrolling at night with Xu Yunchang.
Jiang Chen is so kind to the refugees. If she kills Jiang Chen...what will happen to these refugees?
That night, Liu Ruyan couldn't sleep!
The next morning, a big event happened in Luzhou County!
The second and third sons of the Lu family each sent a shopkeeper to the county government!
It is said that the price gouging in their shops is caused by these two shop owners!
……
After handing the two shopkeepers over to the yamen, they also started to distribute porridge!
When Jiang Chen heard about this, he couldn't help but laugh.
"It seems that this saint lady has given them some instructions!"
Although Jiang Chen didn't know that the two had met the Saint.
But in his opinion, the only one who has the ability to wake the two of them up is Miss Xuanxuan!
But Jiang Chen was very curious. Miss Xuanxuan was able to wake up those two people, so why couldn’t he wake up himself?
Is the Holy Mother Church powerful enough to fight against the imperial court?
"Sir, Lord Chen is here!"
"Ok?"
Jiang Chen heard Chen Guang coming and hurried to the hall.
"My dear son-in-law! Good news!"
"Good news!"
"The imperial court has finally issued a notice allowing me to open the granaries and release grain!"
After seeing Jiang Chen, Chen Guang said excitedly.
"Hahaha, this is really good news!"
"However, father-in-law, when you open the warehouse to release grain, you must remember to keep good records!"
"Don't let anyone trick you!"
Jiang Chen said with a laugh.
"Okay, I got it! Don't worry!"
Chen Guang said with a big laugh.
Now that the granaries can be opened to release grain, the disaster in Luzhou County should be able to be alleviated to some extent.
But when Chen Guang thought of this, he leaned close to Jiang Chen and whispered, "My dear son-in-law, I have written a letter to Prime Minister Cai, asking him to send an imperial envoy to supervise the disaster relief."
"By then, Xue Wenyan's embezzlement of grain will definitely be discovered!"
"You better be prepared!"
"Thank you, father-in-law, for the reminder! Sorry to trouble you with this matter!" Jiang Chen said respectfully.
Yes, the reason why Xue Wenyan did this was because Jiang Chen asked him to do it.
Do not!
To be exact, this was Mu Qingqing's idea!
……
Mu Qingqing knew that Jiang Chen didn't want Chen Guang to get involved.
But this matter requires an opportunity!
And disaster relief is this opportunity!
As for hatred... naturally it's all given to Cai Jing!
By then, even if Xue Linglong knew about this, she would blame Cai Jing instead of... Chen Guang!
That's why Jiang Chen asked Chen Guang to write a letter to Cai Jing.
I believe that Cai Jing and Eunuch Zhang should have received their respective letters!
However, Jiang Chen was wrong about this.
The two of them didn't just want to receive it, they had already received it!
The messenger they sent out knew the importance of the matter and ran all the way!
And Jiang Chen's letter to Eunuch Zhang arrived first!
When Eunuch Zhang heard that there was a letter from Jiang Chen, he hurriedly took it out to check.
When Eunuch Zhang saw Jiang Chen’s vicious schemes, he was extremely shocked!
"This...this Jiang Chen is so poisonous!?"
"However, it seems that those parasites in the court can also be used!"
"Especially in Jiangnan, most of those parasites come from the Eighth Sage King's school."
"Haha, this might be an opportunity to plot against the Eighth Wise King!"
"Let the Eighth Sage King, who is famous for his virtue, become a corrupt official hated by the people!"
“This is quite interesting!”
"As for the sand and gravel mixed in the disaster relief grain, we can wait and see..."
“And this work-for-relief program can be implemented in areas that are less affected by the disaster!”
After reading the letter, Eunuch Zhang had already made his decision.
However, this letter made Eunuch Zhang value Jiang Chen even more!
However, after reading the description of Xue Wenyan in the letter, Eunuch Zhang's eyes turned cold!
"Haha, colluding with the Holy Mother Church to secretly transport the grain from the warehouse!"
"You are looking for death!"
"Someone come! Bring me the second one!"
