Chapter 194 Stunning Beauty
Anyway, if something bad happened to the Xu family, it would be right to ask Xu Cheng to come out and take the stand.

"What kind of relative is this? I've never seen it before. It's too much." Qi Ruoshu said angrily.

"Don't be angry, let's find a way to help him." He Anwen immediately comforted him.

Looking at the young man's fair and delicate face, Qi Ruomei suddenly felt a pity in her heart.

Not long after, the clinic arrived, and when the doctor took Xu Cheng's pulse, He Anwenwen hurriedly asked.

"Doctor, how is he? Is he okay?"

The doctor took a deep breath and shook his head, "This child is not in good health. It's a big loss. If things go on like this, I'm afraid he won't live long."

He Anwen was surprised, he didn't expect it to be so serious.

"Doctor, please save him, just tell me if you need anything."

The doctor nodded, "Then I'll prescribe some herbs for him."

"Fourth, you go to work first, Ruoshu and I are waiting here." After a while, Su Yun said.

He Anwen thought about it and thought it was good, so he nodded, "Okay, mother, then I'll go first."

After that, he asked the big man who sent Xu Cheng to go with him.

On the way, he happened to ask the big man something.

Then he learned that these people have been in corvée for a long time, and they have to do heavy work every day, but their daily food is very poor. Each person has a bowl of clear white porridge, plus a small grain cake , Don't say that you are full, you can barely starve to death.

If you want to work hard, you have to bring your own food. As for the daily wages.

When I came here, I agreed that it would be one tael of silver per month, but as a result, they haven't even seen a penny until now.

Gradually they all figured it out, don't expect to ask for this money, it's not bad if you can save your life.

After listening to what he said, He Anwen frowned, and said, "If one day you can testify that everything you have said is true, would you be willing?"

The big man nodded immediately, "Yes, why don't you want to, those people are too much! They simply don't treat us ordinary people as human beings!"

But after he finished speaking, he hesitated again, looked at He Anwen beside him and asked worriedly, "Master Juren, it's not that I am talking too much, the officials here are very powerful, and they are backed by His Highness King Jin, and ordinary people can't afford to provoke them."

"If you don't make it happen, you will have to pay for your wealth and life."

He Anwen felt a little funny when he heard this, "Then why aren't you afraid?"

The big man chuckled, his eyes full of loneliness, "Me? I'm a loner, and my only relative is my old lady. But last year, my old lady was seriously ill and passed away. I have nothing to worry about in this world, and it's okay to die."

"It's not like you, who drags his family with his mouth, what happens if something happens."

He Anwen nodded slightly, feeling that this person's character is not bad.

So he smiled and said, "I heard that an imperial envoy will come here recently, maybe I can ask him for help."

But after the big man heard it, he showed a look of sneering.

"Forget it, those high-ranking officials are just here for a formality. After a few delicious meals, they pat their butts and leave. Who really cares about the lives of us ordinary people."

He Anwen couldn't help smiling when he heard this, "You can't kill a boatload of people with one blow, maybe the one who came this time is a good official."

After that, he went to the government office alone.

But as soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by someone.

"Stop, who is coming, and what is it?"

He Anwen looked at the two policemen with fierce faces indifferently, and said, "Officer, I saw that at the place where the embankment was being built, some people oppressed the people, beat and scolded them wantonly, and some people were even injured. "

"And as far as I know, those people haven't been paid for a long time. What's going on? I'm going to ask the magistrate."

The two guards guarding the gate couldn't help but look at each other, thinking to themselves, could this man be out of his mind?

So one of them said in a cold voice, "Your Excellency is not here, you should leave quickly."

"My lord is not here? Then where is he?" He Anwen asked with a look of confusion.

"You are so brave! If you dare to ask the magistrate's whereabouts, believe it or not, I will arrest you and lock you up for a few days!" said the policeman with an unhappy expression.

In an instant, He Anwen's face darkened, "Is this how you treat the people who come to report to the government?"

"Are you here to report to the official? I think you are here to find fault on purpose!"

In the end, He Anwen sneered, took out the token in his bosom, and said, "See clearly, I am He Anwen, the imperial envoy appointed by the Holy Majesty, quickly call your magistrate over here!"

"It's late, I want him to look good!" The people below are like this, this official is probably not a good guy, and he doesn't bother to be polite to them.

Immediately, the two police officers were dumbfounded, imperial envoy?Why did you come here so quickly, and so low-key, you can't see it at all.

It's over, they actually offended the imperial envoy.

So soon, they immediately changed their expressions.

"My lord, don't get angry, my subordinates will go and invite the prefect."

Soon, Liu Deren, the magistrate of Cangzhou, hurried over from the government office.

"Oh! I didn't know that the imperial envoy came, but I'm not far away to welcome you. Please also invite Haihan."

He Anwen sneered, "Didn't these two arrests say you were not here?" But he came out of the government office.

Liu Deren immediately explained with a smile, "It was a misunderstanding, they just thought I wasn't here."

He Anwen snorted inwardly, "Well, if I hadn't revealed my identity earlier, I'm afraid I'd be taken into prison by you."

Liu Deren immediately showed an apologetic smile, "I'm really sorry, Mr. He, the misunderstanding is all a misunderstanding, wait a moment
They will definitely be fined, Mr. He, let's go in and talk about it first. "

After entering, He Anwen narrated everything he saw and heard after entering the city.

"Master Liu, don't say you don't know!"

Liu Deren nodded immediately, "I'm really not sure about this, the official who guards the embankment is someone sent by His Royal Highness King Jin."

"I can't help it. When those unruly people heard that they were going to serve in corvée, they were very dishonest. Therefore, they have to send officers and soldiers to take care of them."

The underlying meaning is obvious, if you have the ability, go to King Jin.

He Anwen sneered again, "I don't know how you are a magistrate. You don't know anything, and you don't know anything about it."

"Is the monthly money of those people paid by your government? Don't say no, if so, why didn't they get the money?"

"One person may be lying, but what about two people? A group of people!"

Liu Deren didn't expect that he had investigated everything, and he secretly hated him, but he still had a smile on his face, "Misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding, how is it possible!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely investigate clearly, and I will definitely give the people and give you an explanation."

He Anwen was curious about what kind of explanation he would give him, so he nodded.

"Okay, I'll wait and see how you find out."

Afterwards, Liu Deren said again, "My lord, tonight I will hold a banquet at Chunmanlou to clean up the dust for you. You must love to show off your face."
