Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration]

In a blink of an eye, it has been almost half a year since Wu Bai and others came to Yongyuan Mansion. The dams and roads in Yongyuan Mansion were built. Most of the people chose to replace the previous wooden houses with cement houses, and Yongyuan Mansion gradually returned to life.

In the government office, a guard walked into the lobby and said to Wu Bai, "My lord, the new magistrate has arrived."

Wu Bai was surprised: "So fast?"

He sent someone to the capital half a month ago to deliver the secret document, but he hid the part that King An participated in in the secret document, and only wrote about Song De's corruption in the memorial. He expressed the hope that the emperor would send someone to take over the Yongyuan Mansion. The thing, he thought it would take at least a month for the other party to arrive at Yongyuan Mansion, but he didn't expect the other party to arrive in half a month.

Xiao Zimo put down the things in his hands, and said to Wu Bai: "Let's go out and have a look, who is here this time?"

Wu Bai nodded and said, "Okay."

The two walked out of the mansion, only to see a carriage slowly stop in front of the mansion, and then a person got out of the carriage.

"Cousin?" Wu Bai happily walked towards the other party.

Lou Simiao looked at the excited Wu Bai, who also smiled and replied, "Long time no see, Brother Bai."

"Cousin, are you the new magistrate?" Wu Bai asked.

"That's right, it's me." Lou Simiao nodded.

While the two were talking, a group of common people gathered around the gate of the government office.

"Fifth son, this is a new cabbage that grows in my field. It's fresh. Take it and taste it."

"Fifth son, this is an egg laid by my old hen."

"Fifth Young Master, this is my home..."

The people had just suffered a disaster, Wu Bai naturally couldn't bear to take their things, so he said: "Everyone be quiet first, I have some good news to tell everyone."

Hearing this, the common people quieted down one after another, wanting to hear what good news Wu Bai had to tell them.

Wu Bai pointed to Lou Simiao and said, "This is the new magistrate..."

Before the words were finished, some people said angrily: "We don't need a magistrate, officials are not good things, we only need the fifth son to be the master for us!"

"Am I right?"

"Yes! The Fifth Young Master is a good man!" The common people said angrily.

Looking at the excited people, Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo comforted them patiently, and finally let them accept Lou Simiao, the new magistrate, and Lou Simiao also promised that he would do things for the people with his heart.

For the common people, their lives have finally settled down, and naturally they don’t want to meet another prefect who is as unkind as Song De, but after Wu Bai’s persuasion, they know that the new prefect is Wu Bai’s representative. After Brother, they are willing to give Lou Simiao some time to prove himself.

After finally persuading the people to leave, Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo took Lou Simiao into the government office.

The three came to the lobby, and Wu Bai poured Lou Simiao a cup of tea.

Lou Simiao drank the tea and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Cousin is scared?" Wu Bai joked.

"That's not true, it's just that I suddenly realized that what I did in the past was not good enough, and I need to learn more from you as a brother." Lou Simiao replied.

Before he came to Yongyuan Mansion, he had thought about how desolate and dilapidated Yongyuan Mansion is, and the eyes of the people would be full of all kinds of despair, but after he came, he found that Yongyuan Mansion was completely different from what he had imagined, the roads here were clean and tidy It is spacious, and although there is a little sadness in the eyes of the people, it is more full of hope for the future.

"Cousin, why did the emperor send you here this time?" Wu Bai asked curiously.

"This is the meaning of your emperor brother. Since you came to Yongyuan Mansion, you have rarely sent letters back. He is very worried about you, and His Majesty must be the same, so he sent me here." Lou Simiao replied.

"Thank you cousin." Wu Bai said.

Lou Simiao was originally a servant of the Ministry of Punishment. From a third-rank official, he was now transferred to Yongyuan Mansion as the magistrate. Although he was promoted to a third-rank official, the two cannot be compared at all.

Lou Simiao shook her head and said: "It's okay, Brother Bai, you can come to Yongyuan Mansion, so you can be a brother."

Because of Lou Simiao's arrival, Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo gradually handed over their affairs to each other. After confirming that the other party took over completely, the two began to plan to return to Beijing.

On this day, Wu Bai approached Lou Simiao and said, "Cousin, now that the affairs have been handed over, Zimo and I are planning to leave Yongyuan Mansion. This time we came to say goodbye to you."

"I asked the commander of the guard army, and he said that we will leave in three days. Why did you come to say goodbye to me today?" Lou Simiao asked puzzled.

Wu Bai explained: "This flood has a lot to do with it, and it's not just Song De's fault, because this trip back to Beijing is bound to be dangerous, so we plan to split up with the commanders and go to Beijing in advance."

Lou Simiao thought for a moment, then said, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"There is indeed one thing that needs my cousin's help. After we leave, I hope my cousin will not let people find out that we left early." Wu Bai urged.

"Okay, brother understands." Lou Simiao nodded and said.

On a moonlit night, Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo quietly left the government office with the immobile Song De, and slowly disappeared into the night in the carriage that had been prepared.

On the carriage, Xiao Zimo and Wu Bai, who had changed in appearance, drove the carriage towards the next state capital. Song De was unconscious in the carriage, but at this time Song De was not the same as before. It's the face of an octogenarian.

Three days later, the commander of the guard led all his men and a carriage to the river. Behind them, except Lou Simiao, the magistrate, almost all the people of Yongyuan Mansion came to see them off.

When they arrived at the riverside, the people saw 'Wu Bai' and 'Xiao Zimo' coming down from the carriage, and immediately waved to them excitedly. In such a situation, 'Wu Bai' and 'Xiao Zimo' naturally extended their hands to say goodbye to them .

Then 'Wu Bai' and 'Xiao Zimo' boarded the boat, and the common people stood by the river, watching this scene from a distance.

Suddenly, a child said suspiciously: "The fifth son and the son-in-law look so serious today, are they arguing?"

The child's parents quickly covered his mouth and reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense, the fifth son-in-law and the son-in-law are a match made in heaven, and they will live happily ever after."

"But……"

"No but!"

There were many people on the riverside, and many people looked at the boats going away and began to cry. The conversation between the two quickly dissipated among the crowd.

On the boat, 'Wu Bai' and 'Xiao Zimo' found the commander of the guard army, and they finally said: "Commander, what should we do next?"

The commander of the guard said: "You two continue to pretend to be the fifth son and the son-in-law. Don't have too much contact with others. Remember, don't let other people know about this."

"Yes, Commander." The two replied.

"Okay, you guys go back first!" The guard commander waved.

When the two left, the commander of the guard walked out of the cabin, looked at the river, frowned, and worried in his heart: I don't know where the fifth son and the others are now?

The ship went all the way and arrived at the next state capital smoothly. They stopped the ship and docked to replenish supplies.

The next day, they returned to the ship again and set off again.

Not long after they set sail, Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo drove the carriage to the shore. They rented a cruise ship and chased after them led by the guard.

In order not to attract attention from others, they sometimes passed the ships of the guards leading them, sometimes kept pace with them, and sometimes fell behind them.

Seeing Wu Bai's cautious look, Song De said, "Before this old man thought Mr. Wu would choose to go by land, but unexpectedly he chose the waterway."

Wu Bai glanced at him, and replied: "This is called soldiers never tire of deceit."

"Fifth Young Master behaves differently from other people, this old man deserves to lose this time." Song De sighed.

In the past, when those officials handled cases, they always paid attention to the evidence before arresting people. Wu Bai didn't say anything, and he was taken down as soon as he arrived in Yongyuan Mansion. The interrogation methods are even different from ordinary people. Now he thinks about the feeling of being bitten by ants that day , I feel shuddering.

In the evening of that day, Wu Bai ordered the boatman to park the boat on the shore. After they stopped the boat, many boats docked on the shore one after another, and the boats led by the guards also chose to stop here.

At night, when there was silence on the river, a dozen or so men in black sneaked onto the big boat. They avoided the patrolling guards and came to the only room on the third floor, slowly blowing misty smoke into it, and then they pushed the ship carefully. Open the door and walk in.

When they walked into the room and found that it was not Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo, they immediately exclaimed: "I was fooled!"

Before they could figure out what to do next, the guard commander rushed in with his men, and he said sharply, "Take them down for me!"

"Yes!"

The two sides were on the verge of breaking out, and they started fighting. There were more guards, and the men in black were defeated. In the end, only one escaped, and the others were all captured.

Wu Bai and the others sat on the bow of the boat, looking at the direction of the big boat, and listening to the voice from there, Song De asked: "How did the fifth son know that they would choose to do it tonight?"

"There are water bandits around this state capital, and they can only choose to act at the pier of this state capital, so as not to arouse suspicion from others." Wu Bai replied.

Xiao Zimo heard the voices on the big ship gradually disappearing, and he said, "I don't know what's going on on the ship?"

"I told Commander Liu before that he was already prepared, don't worry!" Wu Bai explained.

"That's good." Xiao Zimo nodded slightly.

The next day, Wu Bai waited for Commander Liu's ship to set sail before ordering the boatman to sail.

Capital

Wang An looked at the letter sent by his subordinates, and he said angrily: "The useless thing was played by a little brother."

"My lord, what should we do first?" King An's confidant asked.

"Send people to guard the official roads in the suburbs of Beijing. If you encounter suspicious people, shoot them to death!" Wang An ordered.

"Yes, this subordinate will do it now!" The confidant clapped his hands.

After his confidant left, An Wang coughed violently. He took out a handkerchief and wiped his lips. Looking at the blood stains on it, a deep murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Then he walked out of the door and walked towards a remote courtyard in the mansion.

He pushed open the courtyard door, walked in, and came to a room.

There is an alchemy furnace in the center of the room, and a Taoist priest in Taoist robes stands in front of the alchemy furnace.

The Taoist opened his eyes and looked towards the door, and found that it was King An. He asked, "Why did the prince come here today?"

"How's your elixir refining?" An Wang asked with a cold face.

"So far, everything is going well. Please don't worry, my lord. As long as I refine it for half a month, the elixir can be successfully refined, and then my lord will be able to cure all diseases." The Taoist introduced with confidence.

"This is the last chance this king gives to Taoist Priest. If Taoist Priest hasn't refined the elixir, then this king will refine you." Wang An threatened with a sullen face.

The Taoist priest said with cold sweat all over his face: "Pindao will definitely succeed this time, please rest assured, my lord."

"Hmph!" Wang An shook his sleeves and left.
