Chapter 61 Punishing Corrupt Officials

Zhuangmin seemed to be very hungry. As soon as the cooked porridge and steamed buns came out, everyone rushed forward and rushed forward. The child who bit Liu Juqi couldn't squeeze in front because he had to take care of his grandfather, so the old man pushed him with one hand. , "little six, leave me alone, go and eat something, go."

Little Six's head shook like a drum, "Grandpa, I won't go, I will accompany you."

Seeing that they were pitiful, Xiao Luan filled two bowls of porridge and brought them over. Liu Juqi also brought over two steamed buns, "Eat it, there are still a lot of them, let's cook more."

Seeing Liu Juqi and the others, the old man softened his expression a lot, his muddy eyes were filled with tears, "My lord, you are good people... It's our fault..."

Those villagers also put down their food when they heard the words, and burst into tears in twos and threes. Liu Juqi sighed, and stretched out his hand to touch Xiao Liuzi's head, "I didn't expect this place to be so close to Fengcheng, but to suffer so much."

Looking at their sallow and thin faces, you can tell what kind of life they lived before. The big belly of Xiaoliuzi is not because of fat, but because of ascites and long-term malnutrition. Liu Juqi has seen similar photos of poor African children on the Internet before. , It was a big touch at the time.

Qian Xing also came out of the house, commanding those Pingqiang warriors to distribute the roasted game to the Zhuangmin. After the Zhuangmin got food, his mood gradually stabilized, and the imperial doctors accompanying the team were busy. Shaodu was suffering from illness, and a fire frame was set up next to it, on which different soups and medicines were being boiled in pots and pots.

"Why are they all old and weak, women and children, and young people?" Qian Ying asked.

"Xiaohuzhuang is too poor. Everyone who can leave has left. We can't leave our ancestors, so we stay here to guard Zhuangzi."

"Don't the people above don't care?" Liu Juqi frowned dissatisfied.

"Little Six's father went to look for him, he was beaten half dead and rushed back, and he left after a few days... They don't take our life or death seriously at all!"

Hua Jianzhao stood next to Liu Juqi with arms folded, and said with disdain, "The wine and meat of the Zhu family stinks, and the roads are frozen to death. Every dynasty and generation will inevitably have evil officials."

"This warrior is right," Xuan Yichen came here at some point, and the villagers knew that he had the highest status, so they kowtowed and saluted. Xuan Yichen hurriedly said, "You don't need to be too polite, I will definitely give you this matter An explanation, now please go back and rest."

It was late at night when the people settled down, Liu Juqi went back to his room and tossed and turned, unable to sleep, he touched the silk quilt under his hands and sighed, he used to always feel that he had a hard life, but compared with these people, he could at least eat enough and wear warm clothes ... contented and happy.

He got up lightly, Xiao Luan was still asleep, Liu Juqi didn't wake him up, and went out of the house by himself, the patrolling soldiers outside were walking back and forth with weapons in their hands, Xuan Yichen's thatched cottage was still lit, probably Waiting for the dereliction of duty official.

Xuan Yichen was writing something on the table, and when he saw Liu Juqi coming in, he didn't shy away from it, and finished writing the impeachment memorial calmly, and then asked the servants next to him to wash their pens and inkstones.

"Didn't you hurt your arm? Why didn't you find someone to write for you." Liu Juqi helped him tie the bandage around his neck, Xuan Yichen stretched his fingers, "It doesn't hurt too much, the performance can't be sloppy."

They were speechless for a while, one of them was bitten on his left hand, and the other was injured on his right arm. They seemed to have a funny tacit understanding. Liu Juqi looked sideways at Xuan Yichen, wanting to ask him why he helped him with the stick, but he was dumbfounded. Staring blankly at his handsome side face under the light, he lost his mind.

Xuan Yichen turned to look at him, "What's wrong?"

Liu Juqi blushed, and hurriedly avoided his eyes, "...you are a noble person, and you were injured by that stick, so it's not worth it."

Xuan Yichen smiled when he heard the words, stretched out his hand to lightly stroke Liu Juqi's cheeks, and touched his rosy lips with his fingertips, "I know best whether it's worth it or not, why do you need to say more?"

And so, and so!Liu Juqi's face was so hot that he could roll an egg, he froze there and couldn't move, Xuan Yichen's thoughtfulness and gentleness made people unable to resist, although he didn't say clearly, all his actions showed his thoughts, plus the kiss……

"Come in." Xuan Yichen withdrew his hand suddenly, sat upright, and the smile on his face also subsided.

A fat man in expensive clothes was brought in and pressed to the ground. As soon as the soldier let go, the fat man stood up and cursed, "Presumptuous! Who are you, how dare you break into my mansion at night and kidnap the imperial court official!"

Xuan Yichen snorted coldly, and the two soldiers immediately kicked the fat man's legs hard to make him kneel down, and put two coldly shining knives on his neck, and the fat man shut his mouth lazily .

Liu Juqi felt disgusted when he saw this fat official. He was so fat that he was greedy for a lot of money.

Xuan Yichen's tone was cold, "Are you the county magistrate in charge of Xiaohuzhuang?"

Magistrate Ma was stunned for a moment, "You know that I'm still here to provoke you?"

The soldier who suppressed him immediately twitched his mouth, "This is His Royal Highness the Second Prince, please don't be rude!"

Nama County Magistrate's face turned pale, and cold sweat dripped down the tip of his nose, "Second Prince... I have seen the Second Prince..."

Liu Juqi enjoyed watching it, this is the benefit of power and authority, no wonder so many people want to climb up.

Xuan Yichen, on the other hand, seemed more and more leisurely. He poured a cup of hot tea for Liu Juqi and himself, and slowly blew on the heat, "Ma County Magistrate's family has several hectares of fertile land, eight concubines, and several relatives also opened restaurants in Los Angeles County. Shop, it's a pity that your two sons are not successful, but Ma County Magistrate is rich and powerful, and they live in style."

Ma County magistrate was even more clouded this time, trembling like sifting chaff, stammering, "This... the lower officials, the lower officials are clear in government, never corrupt or accept bribes, let the second prince learn from him!"

Liu Juqi was a little surprised that Xuan Yichen knew all about Ma County Magistrate so quickly, and he said clearly: The palace is as deep as the sea, how can a prince not have some character tricks in his hands?

Xuan Yichen didn't talk nonsense with him, and threw a piece of paper for him to read, in which year and month he was sentenced to an unjust case, and in what year and month he took bribes... everything was clearly written on it.

County Magistrate Ma's face was ashen, his lips trembling, he could not utter a word of excuse, and his body went limp in despondency.

"Pull it out, hand him over to the prefect of Luo County, let him recommend a new person quickly, and take good care of Xiaohuzhuang." Xuan Yichen gave the order, and the two soldiers pulled Ma County Magistrate away. Ju Qi picked up the paper and looked at it for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "This man really deserves his death."

"Ten officials and nine corrupt, there is no pure land in the officialdom." Xuan Yichen took the cloak from the attendant and put it on Liu Juqi, because one hand was hanging, it was a bit inconvenient to move, "It's getting late, you go quickly Rest, we have to continue our journey tomorrow."

"Well, pay attention to the injury on your hand, don't press it when you sleep." After Liu Juqi finished speaking, he felt that the words seemed to be overly concerned, and his face showed discomfort, but Xuan Yichen just smiled lightly, "Thank you Liu'er is concerned, I know."

Willow?

Liu Juqi glanced at him, wrapped his cloak tightly, and left the room sullenly, Xuan Yichen shook his head and smiled, and the little attendant beside him also happily covered his mouth, "Second Highness, I didn't expect Mr. Liu to be so thin-skinned."

"Talking." Xuan Yichen scolded him, but he wasn't really angry.

Liu Juqi was dizzy from his intimate "Liu'er" call. He entered the dark room and closed the door. He just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance of flowers, and he became dizzy and lost consciousness. .

Hua Jianzhao took off her disguise outfit, wearing white clothes and a bamboo hat, sitting silently on the roof watching all this, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "I know this woman can't help it..."
