Chapter 163 Why are you blocking me again?

Shen Changyan replied calmly: "I have a clear conscience and am willing to accept the emperor's investigation. I just want to say that the top priority is to solve the disaster in the north and rescue the affected people to avoid uncontrollable riots. If the disaster in the north is really as those memorials said, I am afraid there will be A large number of victims came to the capital."

The emperor nodded slightly, what he said made sense.

He asked in a deep voice: "What do the rest of you think, let's talk about it."

Those few ministers, there are those who belong to the crown prince and those who belong to the third prince, they are their masters, but they don't want the emperor to see the clue, so no one speaks, they all hang their heads in silence.

Seeing this, the emperor smiled coldly: "Everyone is old and slick, if I count on you, I don't know who this country belongs to."

After saying that, he looked at Shen Changyan and said in a slightly gentler tone: "Changyan, you say it!"

Shen Changyan's face was calm, and he saluted and replied: "Your Majesty, you can send another imperial envoy to assist the third prince in disaster relief. If you find that the report of the memorial there is true, you should notify the state capitals along the way from the north to the capital to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the chaos of refugees."

The emperor asked again: "In your opinion, who is suitable for me to send?"

Naturally, Shen Changyan would not answer. The person he recommended might not necessarily be trusted by the emperor.

"The humble minister is incompetent and unable to recommend me, so I still ask the emperor to appoint him."

The emperor snorted lightly, and waved his hands to order them to retreat.

As soon as he left the emperor's presence, his painting style changed.

The minister who stood in line with the princelings accused the third prince of using the government's disaster relief funds to fill his own pockets and practice fraud, so he should thoroughly investigate and deal with it.

The ministers who sided with the third prince accused the prince of being incompetent and saying that the third prince was not doing his best but was being plotted against him. He should be thoroughly investigated and dealt with.

Listening to their arguing, Shen Changyan sneered and walked away quickly.

They only have interests in their eyes, not people's livelihood.

In the imperial garden, Shen Changyan met the prince by chance, and the two reluctantly had a discussion in the pavilion at first, but finally broke up, and no one knew the inside story.

Shen Changyan is the nephew of the empress's natal family and the eldest son, and he is allowed to play in a specific area of ​​the imperial garden because of the special permission.

This specific area is usually a place for princes to walk and play, and no harem concubines will appear.

In fact, Shen Changyan was discussing the northern disaster relief plan with the prince. In the end, the two of them got angry and still put on a show for others to see.

Besides, Bai Zhi is wandering around the capital at this time, continuing to search for the whereabouts of Mrs. Yang and Xiao Qiao.

Now Xiao Qiao's body is Bai Weiwei's soul, so it can also be said that Xiao Qiao is Bai Weiwei.

Although Xiao Qiao drove a carriage from outside the city into the city and knocked over Bai You's coffin, Bai Zhi was sure that she was in the city and was probably with Yang.

With no clue and a sense of confusion like looking for a needle in a haystack, Bai Zhi walked aimlessly on the street.

Bai Weiwei was recognized by Granny Qiao yesterday, and she will definitely be more careful in hiding her whereabouts in the future.

As long as Bai Zhi can think of a place, Bai Weiwei and Yang will definitely not go.

Where is it?

Bai Zhi was thinking something in her heart, and pinched her fingers to calculate, but she couldn't figure out the whereabouts of the two of them.

"Officer, come in and have some tea, my servant will serve you personally..."

"Come on, whatever my brother wants from my slave family, I can do whatever my slave family wants..."

Suddenly, Yingying Yanyan's soft and coquettish soliciting voice came to her ears, Bai Zhi frowned unconsciously, and subconsciously looked around, only to realize that she had entered Hualiu Lane unconsciously.

Suddenly, a pungent aroma hit her, and then her arm was hugged by a woman: "My lord, come in and sit down. This slave's house is yours now..."

Bai Zhi brushed the woman's hand away subconsciously, frowned and hid: "Don't move!"

After being rejected, the woman became even more charming, waving the handkerchief and smiling charmingly.

"Officer, why are you so reserved when you come here? The slave family is all under your control, and you will definitely be unable to leave the slave family's house in the future..."

Bai Zhi turned around and was about to leave. Bai Weiwei and Yang would not be in such a place. Unexpectedly, she saw the jailer walking towards her in civilian clothes.

Why is he here?

The jailer has an old woman at home, a wife and children, and he doesn't look like a man wandering through flowers and willows.

Bai Zhi decided to find out.

She casually walked to the side, pretending to look at the colorful women's jewelry on the side of the road, secretly observing the movement of the jailer.

I saw the jailer going straight into Yihongyuan.

Bai Zhi then walked in.

Immediately a girl came to greet her.

Bai Zhi gave the girl a piece of silver, and dragged her upstairs behind the jailer.

When the girl saw that she received a distinguished guest, she couldn't help but stick it on her body.

Bai Zhi dodged to the side without leaving a trace, and said in a low voice: "I have a terrible headache right now, please let me be quiet for a while."

The girl heard this and did not dare to harass her anymore. She just stayed with her quietly, very well-behaved.

Bai Zhi was very satisfied with her performance, and when she saw the jailer enter a room, she pretended to be casual and said: "The man looked familiar just now, but I can't remember where I met him. Maybe I have a lot of friends, and sometimes I can't remember who it is." Who is it, the girl knows that man, he seems to be a regular visitor here."

The girl responded flatteringly: "Guardian, that young man is indeed a frequent visitor here. He has been keeping sister Mei'er for a long time. Sister Mei'er is so lucky. She has an upright official body and is kept by that young man. The two of them get together every now and then, and their love is eye-catching. . It’s not like me who has to attract customers every day. If I can’t attract customers, I can’t make any money..."

Her voice was choked as she spoke, and she lowered her head in a hurry.

Soon she raised her head and pleaded apologetically: "Officer, this servant is wrong, I shouldn't have said something hurtful."

Bai Zhi looked at her cautious face, her eyes were lifeless, she was also a daughter, she sympathized with these women who were forced into the land of fireworks, and smiled slightly: "No problem."

Then she went to the girl's room and sat for a while, then she said that her headache was getting worse and she was really unable to have fun, so she went to the drug store to get some medicine and come back another day, and left.

After leaving Yihong Courtyard, she came to a small teahouse next to her and ordered a pot of tea.

Half an hour later, the jailer finally came out of Yihongyuan.

In a secluded alley.

Bai Zhi blocked the jailer.

"Girl? Why are you blocking me again? Didn't I tell you everything I need to say?"

The jailer looked at her in horror and asked in a voice.

Originally, Bai Zhi didn't think much about it, but just on a whim, she wanted to ask him, a small prison guard with little spare money in his hands, why he has a wife and children at home, and is still working outside to find a brothel woman, this is not a small expense, With this money, wouldn't it be nice to live a good life with my wife and children?
But the jailer's reaction made Bai Zhi suspicious, and she sneered coldly: "Really? Then why would I block you here again?"

Upon hearing this, the jailer immediately became depressed and begged for mercy with a sad face: "Auntie, please don't let go of me anymore, okay? I'm just a little soldier guarding the prison, I don't know anything."

Bai Zhi became more and more convinced that the jailer definitely had a secret.

"You are keeping Mei'er in Yihongyuan, where do you get the spare money?"

The question sounded calm and gentle, but what I heard was thunderous.

The jailer's legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground, but he quickly struggled to get up and asked in a trembling voice, "How do you know?"
