Dayu Execution Officer, begins to torture the demon girl's fiancee

Chapter 142 Zhao Cuo wants to kill the dragon

What Zhao Cuo did was seen by everyone present, and the officials showed embarrassment, while the faces of the numb victims finally showed emotional fluctuations.

It wasn't overjoyed looks on their faces, though.

Instead, he looked anxiously at the officials who obviously had different opinions.

"Mr. Zhao Qin..."

A local official came out hesitantly.

"If you distribute the porridge as you ordered, the granary in Quang Binh Mansion will be empty within ten days. Maybe you can get food within this time limit?"

"can."

Zhao Cuo said without hesitation.

"I will buy rice from the local grain merchants for emergency, and then adjust the grain from Jiangnan and Jiangbei. At the same time, I will also explain the situation to the Queen Mother, and ask the whole country to rescue Guangping Mansion. Don't worry."

"Although the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Yangtze River are said to be rich in fish and rice, how can this food be so easy to come to? Are you sure about it, my lord?"

A young officer came out.

"The governor of Liangjiang is my father."

Zhao Xiaogong said so.

"Well..."

The official who was not a few years older than Zhao Cuo was obviously stunned for a moment, then bowed his hands in a convincing salute, and said solemnly:
"Thank you, the imperial envoy, for saving the people of Quang Binh Prefecture from the fire and water."

"You are the official in charge of the granary, right? Go and do as I tell you, open the granary and release the grain."

Zhao Cuo said in a calm tone, once again recognizing the importance of relationships in his heart.If he is not the eldest son of Zheng Guogong's mansion, can he convince everyone here?I can't take it.

"Thank you, Master, for your kindness!"

The common people in front of the porridge shed knelt down with tears in their eyes. These common people were not easy to fool. It was the strong rice fragrance from the pot that made them grateful.

"Quickly serve the porridge!"

Grandpa Zhao waved his lips and said, while Chu Guoshi stood quietly watching the scene, his dark and bright eyes stared at the handsome young man through the fence.

"Jamie's big brother."

Zhao Cuo turned his head subconsciously when he heard this strange name, and saw a little girl in the porridge line smiling and waving at him, saying loudly:

"My daughter saw the dragon before the flood!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, girl."

The peasant woman who was holding the girl said in trepidation.

"It's not surprising that my elder sister begged the official for her ignorance."

"It's okay."

Zhao Cuo walked up to the little girl with a smile, raised his hand to wipe off the dirt on her face, and said softly:

"Where did you see the dragon? The flood was brought by the heavy rain, but there are no demon dragons."

"But Nanni really saw it." The little girl stared with big eyes wronged, "It was dozing off in the Bajiang River that day."

"No matter what kind of dragon it is, it can't make waves."

Zhao Cuo smiled and raised his finger to Chu Guoshi who was wearing a lotus-colored flowing fairy dress. She just stood there calmly and gave people a lot of pressure, but the fairy inspiration made it difficult to look away.

"Did you see that fairy sister? The real dragon can't beat her even if it comes, so don't worry."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and rubbed the little girl's hair before turning around and walking back to the officials.

"Master Zhao really loves the people like a son."

The officials are sycophanting with half-truths.

"I'm going to inspect the dam and inspect the flood control. Would you like to go with me?"

"Young master, think twice!"

Minister of the Ministry of Industry said with eyelids twitching.

"The dam has not completely sealed the gap, and there is a danger of flood discharge at any time. You must not take risks."

He even opposed Zhao Cuo's coming to Hanoi County, because once the flood came again, this place would still be flooded even today.

"If you don't even dare to go to the front line, wouldn't you have failed the empress dowager's trust? Those who are good at water control, please follow me."

As Zhao Cuo said, he got on his horse and walked towards the high dam that could be vaguely seen in the distance. The officials who stayed in place looked at each other in blank dismay and could only grit their teeth to keep up.In fact, Mr. Zhao Xiaogong was not so brave and fearless, but he dared to be so reckless only because of the protection of the fire-bearer.

"It's really dangerous..."

He drove his horse to the river dam, and many village braves were braving the rain to pile up sandbags and pull nets everywhere, and the sound of turbulent water waves echoed in his ears.

"Can we go up and see together?"

Zhao Cuo pointed to the dam and asked Chu Guoshi beside him.

"Ah."

Chu Biezhi responded softly, she stood in the rain curtain but was not hit by a drop of water, the rain fell around her.

"Let's go."

Zhao made a mistake and got off his horse. In the eyes of many officials who followed, he stepped on the stone steps and walked towards the dam platform tremblingly. The scene in front of him made his eyes widen.

A vast Yangtze River filled his entire field of vision, and the turbulent waves were pulsating, as if there was an evil dragon flopping and playing in the river.

Anyone standing here will feel their own insignificance and weakness.

"Compared to the Bajiang River, the Donghe River is a stream..."

He murmured.

"Do you know where the Ba River flows?"

The national teacher standing beside Zhao Cuo suddenly asked.

"South?"

Mr. Zhao Xiaogong uttered nonsense.

"To be precise, it's the South China Sea."

Chubiezhi's voice is still full of mature intellectual charm.

"The south of the south of the Yangtze River is the southern border, where the poor mountains and bad waters are still in the coastal area, and the dragon people have lived and thrived in the South China Sea for generations."

"what?"

Zhao Cuo was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he heard such a statement. Before, he thought that even if there were dragons in this world, they would be with the monsters.

Now it seems that these two clans are in Mobei and Nanhai respectively. It can't be said that they are as close as one family, it can only be said that they don't communicate with each other until they die.

But since the Bajiang River flows into the South China Sea...

"That kid said he saw a dragon, can't it be true?"

Zhao Cuo's complexion suddenly became bad.

"The Dragon Clan has a covenant with me, Dayu. In the past 400 years, Qiu has committed no crimes. It is impossible to suddenly break into our territory."

As Chu Biezhi spoke, he suddenly threw a flagon at him.

"This one……"

Zhao Xiaogong was stunned after catching it.

"You're fine."

Chu Guoshi's tone unexpectedly brought a touch of tenderness and amiability.

"I still remember what you said when you were hunting in the frozen river. At that time, you thought it was hypocrisy to clamor that you were willing to sacrifice your life for the tens of thousands of innocent people implicated by corrupt officials. Now, seeing that you treat the people as hurt, you are somewhat sincere."

After she finished her compliment, she added another sentence.

"Although I'm good at other people's wives."

"what!"

Zhao Cuo smiled, unscrewed the lid of the wine jug and took a sip, it would be inappropriate not to brag about this situation.

"Since I have come to this Guangping mansion, no more people are allowed to be affected by the disaster. Even if the real dragon comes today, I will draw my sword and cut off its head to bathe in its blood!"

After his words fell, the water of the Bajiang River suddenly stirred up!A burning sense of oppression enveloped everyone's hearts, only to see a huge shadow gradually showing its ferocious figure in the turbulent waves.
