Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 677 The Prefect's Order, Dude
Although the wording of these words is polite, the meaning in the words is very euphemistic... chasing customers.

Weiying and Xun Zeli made eye contact in silence, and if Shen Zhibai really left, the communication would not be interrupted during this period.

Zhang Wu was so anxious about sending them away, there must be something tricky about it.

"We rushed to Huacheng at full speed and haven't rested for many days. Now that we know Master Shen's whereabouts, we don't have to worry about it. We just stayed in the city for a few days to recuperate."

Su Rao looked at Zhang Wu, and smiled slowly: "Will you disturb Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Wu's expression froze slightly, obviously he didn't expect her to change her mind.

"Master Su, if this is where it is, please don't bother."

The curvature of the corner of his mouth was almost as if he had drawn it, enthusiastic and joyful: "The city is not peaceful, if Master Su doesn't mind, how about living in the government office? There are heavy troops deployed here, I guess those exiles would not dare to do anything wrong."

"The guest can do whatever he wants, according to Master Zhang's arrangement."

Su Rao smiled and nodded.

After the two of them politely finished talking, Zhang Wu recruited officers to clean up a few rooms behind the government office for them to settle in, and said apologetically: "It stands to reason that you have come from a long way, as the host, I should clean up the dust for you. But right now the exile has not been caught, it is really lack of skills, please forgive me for being negligent."

"Official duties are the most important thing. There will be plenty of time in the future. Mr. Zhang, go and do it yourself."

"Thank you."

Zhang Wu left in a hurry, sent him and the guards away, and the others gathered in Su Rao's house, Xun Ze said politely: "There are only a few people in the government office, and it is indeed as Zhang Wu said, the guards are tight."

"What is this prefect going to do?"

Shen Yuan thought of the current situation, he was frightened all over, rubbed his arms and looked around: "This place is really weird and eerie."

"Find someone to check the wind first."

Su Rao looked at the sky outside, and said in a concentrated voice: "We'll talk about everything in the evening."

Everyone went to the people in the government office to inquire about the news. They didn't know if they had prepared in advance or something else.

And when they wanted to go out of the yamen and go to the street, those soldiers would block the way.

"My lord has an order. You are distinguished guests from Huacheng. It's not peaceful outside right now. It's better for you to stay in the government office and rest. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, it will be difficult for the lowly officials to explain to Shengjing."

Xun Zeli's eyes were displeased: "Are you going to put this general under house arrest?"

"My lord is serious. The humble officials are ordered to protect your safety. Don't dare to slack off. Everything will return to normal after the government catches the exile."

"What if we're going out of town?"

he asked again.

The young general replied: "We have to wait for the prefect to come back to make decisions about such important matters. Please don't embarrass your humble post."

That is to say, if Zhang Wu doesn't come back, they won't let him go.

Xun Zeli looked for Su Rao with a dark face, and Su Rao said, "Although I don't know what happened in the city for the time being, but Zhang Wu's reaction doesn't seem to be trying to embarrass us."

"He wants to keep us here and keep us out of the city."

Xun Zeli also discovered Zhang Wu's intentions.

If that meeting proposed to go out of the city, Zhang Wu would definitely send them away intact, but after they stayed, no matter how nervous people were, they would find something strange over time.

In this way, Zhang Wu would not let them leave early anyway.

"Unfortunately he was wrong."

Xun Zeli sneered coldly: "In this situation outside, other civil servants may only stare blankly. They want to stop us, it's just a dream."

"Don't confront them head-on."

Their manpower is really not enough in front of tens of thousands of troops. Zhang Wu is not malicious to them because he has not touched his bottom line for the time being. If there is a conflict on the surface, he will not be merciful. Sure.

No matter how high the martial arts are, they can't stand up to the opponent's crowd tactics.

Su Rao made a final decision: "Wait until it gets dark."

"My lord means to say..."

Xun Zeli's thoughts raced and he quickly understood what she meant. He turned his head and looked outside, thinking to himself: Some things are really not suitable for doing in the open sky.

Everyone gathered together and said this boringly.

When it was time for the evening meal, the people from the government office counted the time and delivered meals, including meat, vegetables and wine, except that they could not go out and walk around at will, and they were really respectful to them.

"By the way, do you have leaf cards here? Find two pairs, or it will be too boring."

"Yes, what else do you want?"

"Two jugs of good wine, and the dice are ready. After working so hard on the road, I want to relax, my lord."

"That's right, the musicians and dancers are also called."

Everyone chattered, and when they heard the last sentence, the guard was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Musicians and dancers... this is a government office after all, their status is lowly, and they don't follow the rules."

"Pedantic, if you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who else can climb the wall and watch?"

"My lord, it's really impossible. If our prefect finds out, I won't be able to keep my humble job. I beg your mercy."

"Okay, it's really boring."

Shen Yuan rolled his eyes angrily, and said to the others: "Then we brothers are the only ones to play with."

"Thank you for your compassion, I will prepare what you want now."

The guard withdrew.

Only now did Shen Yuan and the others get together, chatting in chirping, "Sir, don't you take a few more people out? In case of accidents, there are still people to support you."

"No, it's easy to be exposed if there are too many people inquiring about the news. It's fine for Ze Li and I to go alone. You should eat and drink. Don't let them find out."

Su Rao said.

Shen Yuan, Wei Ying and the others laughed when they heard the words, "Don't worry, my lord, eating, drinking and having fun is our old job."

It's like saying something to be proud of.

Su Rao laughed, "Okay, then you guys can play."

She turned and went back to the room, Xun Zeli waited for the door to close, then patted Shen Yuan on the shoulder, "You have to have a sense of proportion when you pretend, don't be really drunk and miss the job."

"I know."

Wei Ying fully agreed, and the guards brought several large jars of spirits, dice, leaf cards, and some gadgets to pass the time, with smiling faces as if they were afraid that they would not be able to enjoy themselves to their fullest.

"The humble position is just outside, if you have something to do, just ask the adults."

He backed out.

Wei Ying and the others were not restrained, and they shook the dice as they greeted each other, punching fists, pouring wine, and gradually "lost control" in the scene amidst the smell of wine.

When the officers and soldiers outside heard the movement, they exchanged glances with each other.

It seems to be saying, look at these dandies, they still have the same virtues, drinking and gambling, nothing but gold and jade...

Su Rao and Xun Zeli came out for a turn around halfway, waiting patiently until the lanterns were lit outside, the night was as dark as ink, Su Rao turned out the back window and knocked on the window next to it.

"Let's go and see what's hidden in this city!"
