The female supporting role in fast time travel always wants to change the system

Chapter 192 Dressed as a Playful Young Master (91)

"My lord, Lord Qianhu sent a letter saying that Hao Shangshu's clothes fragments were found at the bottom of the cliff, but she was not lost. Do you still want to continue searching after asking for instructions from Lord Qianhu?"

This news is considered good news for Shen Yan. If he didn’t find it, it means that Hao Yun is very likely to be alive. .In addition, the order is to set off immediately, and I will arrive in Jiangnan within ten days."

In the magistrate's office in the south of the Yangtze River, a fat middle-aged man was fidgeting and pacing in the study.

His name is Du Zhong, the magistrate of the Jiangnan County Government. Three days ago, he got the news that the emperor sent the admiral of Dongchang and the new minister to check the details of the money used for repairing the embankment.

The construction of water embankments is a lucrative job. As long as officials in various places are in charge of this, they will get a little bit of money.This is already an undisclosed secret in the officialdom, but he, the magistrate, is a little greedier than others.

When he was preparing to be greedy for ink earlier, his wife persuaded him to take less and not cause trouble.At that time, he dismissed her as a woman's opinion, but now he regrets it.

He is also aware of Dongchang's tricks. He has always been able to say that white is black. If he wants to punish you, he can easily fabricate evidence, not to mention that he is indeed greedy for money. "What should I do?" In a panic, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and hurried out.

In an ordinary Zhuangzi outside the city, the magistrate got off the carriage and looked around before entering the Zhuangzi.

In the courtyard, a guard suddenly appeared and held a scabbard on his neck, looking at him coldly.

The magistrate's head was covered with sweat, and he said tremblingly, "Misunderstanding, I'm here to find your lord, please inform me."

The guard stared at him, then let him go, turned and entered the room.Soon, he came out again and said to him coldly: "Master let you in."

The magistrate wiped the sweat off his face, straightened his clothes, and then opened the door.

In the room, a man wearing a moon white brocade robe was drinking tea with a half mask on. Seeing the magistrate coming in, he asked him if he wanted a cup.

Although the person in front of him looked harmless, the magistrate knew how powerful he was after dealing with him for so long.Busy said in a flattering tone: "No need, I'm not thirsty."

The man glanced at him lightly, then said with a chuckle, "Are you here to ask me for something?"

When the magistrate heard this, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed his head and said, "My lord, please save this official. If you don't save this official, I will definitely die."

"Get up and talk first. After all, you are also the parent officer in this area. Why are you so frightened?" Du Zhong didn't want to get up, and just kowtowed to the man to save him.

Seeing him like this, the man didn't talk too much, and said to the guard at the side: "Show him the letter, Master Du."

The letter clearly stated that the Admiral of the East Factory and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry encountered bandits in the suburbs, and both of them were seriously injured and fell off the cliff.After Du Zhong saw it, his eyes lit up, "You mean they are dead?"

The man remained silent, still drinking his tea.Du Zhong didn't dare to ask any more questions, and kowtowed three more times to the man and said happily, "I understand now, thank you sir, I will leave now."

After Eucommia left, the man took off the mask, and saw that he had fair skin and handsome features, but his eyes were full of evil.

He is Nangong Chen, the fifth prince of Li Kingdom. Eight years ago, he joined forces with Huang Youcai and others to destroy Yue Kingdom in one fell swoop, but suddenly received news that his foundation in Li Kingdom was discovered by the prince, and he gave it away in one fell swoop.He was also charged with the crime of treason and intent to usurp the throne, forcing him to hide in XZ.
