Chapter 237
"Presumptuous? Where is my son presumptuous? Do you know who I am?" Zhao Rong was immediately annoyed when he saw someone disturbing his good business.

But when he saw the face of the visitor, the arrogance on his face instantly turned timid, "General Qi, this is all a misunderstanding."

It was only then that everyone discovered that the person who came was actually Qi Yue, the ever-victorious general who had just returned to the imperial court.

Several people hurriedly begged for mercy, Qi Yue said coldly: "Get out!"

A few people ran away like shit.

"Thank you, my lord, for saving me." Yao Suyu hurriedly thanked the savior, only to realize that it was the person she saw at the gate of the palace last time.

Qi Yue's ears turned red, and he waved his hands: "No need to thank you. It's a little effort."

He glanced around, pondered for a moment, and finally said, "Girl, remember to bring more people with you when you go out in the future. The journey is not smooth, so I'll take the girl back."

Yao Suyu wanted to refuse at first, but thinking of someone being a strongman in the street, it can be seen that the world is in chaos, so naturally he did not refuse.

With the person he likes by his side, Qi Yue became more and more at a loss, so he could only straighten his waist.

Suddenly, a group of people gathered in front of them, and there was a faint smell of blood.

Qi Yue frowned.

"It's just a lowly person. It's your luck that my adults have taken a fancy to you. You're just a prostitute, and you pretend to be a showman instead of selling yourself." A man who looked like a servant spat at the woman covered in blood on the ground. One bite, then turned and left.

The people around watched coldly and did not lend a helping hand.

"It's pathetic, it's actually dead. It's a pity." Some people couldn't bear it.

Some people also retorted, "What do you know? Mr. Xu fell in love with her, she was ungrateful, and died as soon as she died. She was just a prostitute."

From the mouths of the people around, Qi Yue learned that because the prostitute was unwilling to commit herself to the courtiers, she was beaten to death abruptly.

The moment he learned the truth, his face was full of shock.

Yao Suyu caught a glimpse of Qi Yue's expression from the corner of his eye, and couldn't bear it, so he could only enlighten him, "Oh, people can't be resurrected after death, and no one can change it. The court is full of smoke, and the courtiers follow suit. They don't take these low-status people seriously at all. Killed casually."

What Yao Suyu said made Qi Yue's mind seem to collapse.

At this time, he realized that the world seemed not as good as he thought.

Several people were silent all the way.

"I'm here. Don't give it away, benefactor." Yao Suyu suddenly said.

Qi Yue woke up with a start, looked up, but saw the three characters of "Governor's Mansion".

"You..." He swallowed.

"Thank you, sir, for saving my wife's life. After I settle down, I will definitely come to thank you." Orange Blossom said hastily.

Qi Yue was struck by lightning.

She is actually the wife of the famous Governor Chu Lian.

His face was gloomy.

Yao Suyu didn't say much when he saw his distraught appearance, and could only let him digest it.

a few days later.

Yao Suyu found that the atmosphere in the mansion was not right, and the servants did not even dare to breathe.

She was a little puzzled, and asked Cheng Hua to inquire, only then did she know that Chu Lian went back to the governor's mansion with a dark face.

Then he ordered the servants in the mansion not to disturb him, and stayed in the study all the time.

She thought to herself, could it be that Chu Lian and Yue Zongsheng had a falling out?

No, she had to investigate.

"Who?" Chu Lian asked aloud.

Yao Suyu stood outside the door, lowered his voice, "Me."

Chu Lian opened the door to let her in, Yao Suyu didn't agree with what he needed, and cut straight to the point: "What happened? But something happened."

Later, Yao Suyu found out that the reason for Chu Lian's low pressure was precisely because of what she saw that day.

Someone brought the matter to Chu Lian, and he immediately started to deal with it, but every time he was interrogated, the officials defended each other, and they didn't have any useful testimony, and the matter finally ended.

How can I make him not angry?
"Others provoke you, don't be angry, there is no one to replace you when you get angry. The courtiers are greedy for ink, and their behavior is corrupt. It is not your fault." Yao Suyu pushed the teacup on the table towards him.

Chu Lian glanced down, then picked it up, and pecked lightly, "The man hasn't been found yet, so be careful these days."

Yao Suyu is a life-saving talker, after hearing this, how dare he refute it.

Seeing that Chu Lian's face returned to normal, Yao Suyu left quietly.

Chu Lian stood outside the door, facing Wu Gou and the others: "After sorting out the recent incidents of courtiers using power to oppress others, seeking wealth and killing people, put it in front of my desk."

When Wu Gou and the others saw this, they couldn't help sighing, as expected, only his wife could deal with the enraged governor.

There are countless things like courtiers oppressing people with power and neglecting human lives. Although Chu Lian couldn't handle everything cleanly, he still made some officials punished.

Those officials were so angry that they filed an imperial petition directly in front of Yue Zongsheng.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce. Sue the governor of Chu for overstepping the law and abusing law enforcement." In the hall, the fourth-rank officials burst into tears, accusing Chu Lian of disturbing him these days, and even disregarding his reaction, and actually sent the mansion down. People brought him into Dongchang and tortured him to extract a confession.

It was said that Yue Zongsheng was interested, so he would never miss the opportunity to punish Chu Lian.

He straightened his face immediately, "Master Chu, is there such a thing?"

Chu Lian bowed his head and cupped his hands, "Return to the emperor, there is indeed such a thing."

Yue Zongsheng was overjoyed and was about to get angry when Chu Lian below spoke again, "Your Majesty, I have something to announce. I want to sue Lord Wu for disregarding human lives and allowing the servants of the government to rob other people's property, seriously injuring several people.

The minister has evidence, please take a look at it. "

Just as the fourth-rank official was about to refute, Chu Lian blocked him with a single sentence.

Seeing that Chu Lian had a plan in mind, Yue Zongsheng couldn't help feeling depressed, and opened up the criminal evidence presented by Chu Lian.

Yue Zongsheng didn't expect that someone would still make such a mistake, Long Yan was furious, and immediately took the fourth-rank official position, causing an uproar in the court.

Many people even shed a cold sweat on the spot.

Just because they did a lot of ridiculous things secretly, for fear that Chu Lian would find out, they could only pretend to be calm.

After beating many courtiers in public, Chu Lian left satisfied, no matter how many people hated him again.

As soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, a loud voice came from behind, "Master Chu, please stay."

Chu Lian turned his head and found that the person calling him was Qi Yue who just came back, "I wonder what's the matter with General Qi?"

Qi Yue cupped his hands at him, "It's nothing. I just want to say something to Governor Chu, the governor is so brave."

Regardless of the winks of many courtiers, he brought those dirty things behind the scenes to the surface, which is really admirable.

Chu Lian has a tall and straight figure, with a smile on his lips, "It's an honor. General Qi once saved the governor's wife once, so this governor wants to say to General Qi that he is brave and courageous."

Yao Suyu was almost kidnapped and then rescued by Qi Yue, the dark guard had already told him.

After Qi Yue returned to the court, he had never stood in a team, but kept himself clean. Chu Lian couldn't deny this.

But Qi Yue took the initiative to find him, he was a little puzzled.

But taking the initiative to attack is not his usual style.

"It's nothing to do with a little effort." Qi Yue said modestly.
