Gu Yuzhi originally wanted to summon Governor He and others to discuss the establishment of a martyrs cemetery after making all arrangements the next morning.

But the sudden return of Guard Qi disrupted Gu Yuzhi's plan.

He didn't come back alone. Behind him was a middle-aged man who was standing tall and in a daze.

The man's face was sallow, his lips were pale, and his eyes were numb. He stood upright behind Qi Chenglang, following Qi Chenglang's every move like a marionette.

The official uniform he was wearing should have been very fitting, but unexpectedly, the official uniform was like a huge sack, covering his whole body, and the sleeves and waist seemed empty.

Gu Yuzhi recognized his identity from his official uniform.

The prefect of Quanzhou, Ke Liangyi!

Gu Yuzhi looked straight at Ke Liangyi, his big eyes filled with various emotions, curiosity, worry, sympathy...

Why does he feel that Magistrate Ke is even more pitiful than the refugees he saw before?

Ke Liangyi's mental state was obviously not very good, and he was even in a trance. It was not until Qi Chenglang reminded him for the third time that he suddenly realized that he had entered a mansion.

He looked at Gu Yuzhi with dull eyes, and then he realized that the rumored His Highness Prince Wen was really very young.

He was small and had a childish face. He looked up at him with eyes full of curiosity.

But strangely, His Highness didn't look scared at all.

He clearly knows what he is like now. He is as thin as a ghost and can scare children into tears when he goes out...

Ke Liangyi's mind was a little confused and he completely forgot that he should greet the prince after seeing him.

Qi Chenglang wanted to remind him, but Gu Yuzhi waved his hand and said, "Let's go to the meeting hall."

He turned around and told Mingli: "Go to Judge Qin to get some herbal tea and prepare some snacks. Also, tell Aunt Xu that Guard Qi is back."

"By the way, then Xie Changshi and Liu Dianyi come over first."

Just as Mingli was about to leave, he thought again and said, "That's right, that's right. Yesterday, I said I would summon Governor He and the others. If they come, I will lead them to the meeting hall."

Mingli bent down to salute, whispered yes, and left quickly.

After Mingli left, he shook his head and walked towards the meeting hall with his hands behind his back: "Guard Qi, Guard Qi, Xie Changshi and I were still talking two days ago. You probably have to wait a little longer before you can come back. Why are you here today?"

It's so fast!

Gu Yuzhi's curiosity was instantly piqued, and when he was about to ask carefully, he saw Judge Qin standing at the door of the chamber.

He blinked and said in disbelief: "Judge Qin, why are you here?"

Didn't Mingli just leave?

Judge Qin walked down the steps, glanced at Ke Liangyi without any trace, and quickly looked away: "I heard that Guard Qi was back, and I guessed that Your Highness would come to the meeting hall, so I waited for you here in advance."

He whispered: "It's time to ask for peace's pulse today."

Ever since he had inexplicable coughing and vomiting that day, Hospital Qin was worried and had to check his pulse every day.

In the first two days, Gu Yuzhi was still a little worried, fearing that the Qin Court would diagnose something wrong. But he was used to it without incident every time.

Qin Yuan's pulse diagnosis not only made him happy, but also reassured Xie Changshi and others.

It wasn't until he entered the meeting hall that Ke Liangyi realized where he was and who was sitting in front of him.

After realizing it, he knelt down and his voice was so dry that he could hardly make a sound: "My lord, Ke Liangyi, the prefect of Quanzhou, has heard that His Highness is a thousand years old!"

Gu Yuzhi turned to look at him, grinned at him, then sat down obediently, looking at Judge Qin with big eyes without blinking.

After a while, Judge Qin stood up with a faint smile on his face: "Everything is well, Your Highness."

Only then did Gu Yuzhi burst out laughing. He sat back and swung his feet to look at Ke Liangyi: "Qin Yuan judge. Qin Yuan judge. Please help Magistrate Ke take a look."

Ke Liangyi just stared at Gu Yuzhi, completely forgetting how disrespectful his behavior was at the moment, and forgetting to get up to thank him.

Qi Chenglang was used to him being like this, so he forcibly pulled him up and sat down on a chair beside him, watching Qin Yuan diagnose his pulse.

At this moment, Xie Changshi and others finally rushed over. Seeing this scene, they did not say anything. They just stood aside respectfully and waited quietly for Qin Hospital to finish the pulse diagnosis.

Judge Qin frowned and looked at Ke Liangyi with disbelief in his eyes. He took his hand back after a while, pondered over the prescription and withdrew.

Only then did Qi Chenglang speak: "Your Highness, when I came out of Quanzhou, Quanzhou had been lifted from the lockdown."

Gu Yuzhi looked at Ke Liangyi, who was still a little dazed, and felt a little sad: "When you found Magistrate Ke, was he like this? What happened to Quanzhou? How are the people, and where is the Mobei Army?"

He scratched his head, feeling so strange.

The whole state is on lockdown. What are the Mobei Army doing? Didn't they rebel?

Gu Yuzhi felt that the word "rebellion" was really bad, so he quietly stuck out his tongue.

Qi Chenglang said: "When I arrived in Quanzhou, the city's defenders had been replaced by the Mobei Army, and the prefect's Yamen was also occupied by the Mobei Army. The current general of the Mobei Army, Bai Jiwu, was stationed in the prefect's Yamen."

He glanced at Ke Liangyi and continued: "And Magistrate Ke and all the government officials were imprisoned. Perhaps because he was afraid of causing greater consequences, Bai Jiwu did not torture Magistrate Ke."

Gu Yuzhi stood up immediately, and after a while he exclaimed: "He actually put a prefect in prison? Who gave him the right! And, where are the people? The city gates have not been opened in Quanzhou for several months, and the people how's it going?"

Qi Chenglang scratched his head: "I don't know the specific situation of the people."

Time was so tight. When he saw Ke Liangyi for the first time, he felt that this prefect Ke might die at any time. He dared to delay in Quanzhou, so he took him back without stopping.

"But there should be a lot of food in the whole state? When I left, the Mobei Army had announced the lifting of the blockade. The people who rushed out seemed to be in better condition than Magistrate Ke."

You still have to ask Ke Liangyi to know the specific things.

But everyone saw that he was in a daze, either with his head hanging down, or looking straight at His Highness. They really didn't know if he could explain the situation in the whole state clearly.

Qi Chenglang scratched his head and continued: "I don't know about other things, but I listened to the Mobei Army. The Mobei Army lost something very important, so they closed the city and searched."

Who dares to go to the army and steal things? This is not like an old man who hangs himself because he thinks he has a long life!

But Qi Chenglang's words convinced Xie Changshi and others that Bai Jiwu wanted to achieve a certain goal by closing the city!
