Done! Your Majesty is going to prostitute me for free!

Chapter 28 The landlord’s family has no surplus food either

"Who gave her a bath?"

"It's a woman."

"Not a man?"

"Of course she's a woman! No man would help her take a bath! Sir, are you interested in her?"

Lin Xiaofeng was told the central issue, and he concealed it with some embarrassment: "Nonsense! How could I be interested in such a thing!"

He tried to look serious, "If a man bathes her, it will cause criticism, then what should we do? I think we should do what others want to do and solve other people's urgent needs!"

"Yes~~" Lin Taohua replied, rolling her eyes.

While the two were talking, the woman's eyes moved slightly.

...

Just when Lin Xiaofeng was about to get to know the woman more deeply, he suddenly heard someone running outside, sweating profusely and looking panicked, saying that someone was coming from the capital with an imperial edict.

Lin Xiaofeng and Taohua were stunned when they heard the news.

When did the imperial edict come to this corner of Yangqu County? ! ! !

Lin Xiaofeng calmed down and said, "Don't panic, come with me to go out and have a look." Although his voice was calm, his eyes revealed deep worry.

When we got downstairs, we saw that there were already people gathered outside. The little eunuch who delivered the order looked at everyone and felt a little scared. People from the entire Yangqu County came out, and the crowd of onlookers was like a wall.

Lin Xiaofeng walked over and people made way for him. When the young eunuch saw him, he felt a little more courageous and asked, "Are you Lin Xiaofeng, the magistrate of Yangqu County?"

Lin Xiaofeng nodded and replied: "Yes."

The little eunuch said: "Kneel down and receive the order!"

Lin Xiaofeng replied: "How can this be done! I am an official of the imperial court, and I have to verify the authenticity of the imperial edict first." His voice was firm and powerful, and he was obviously unwilling to accept this sudden imperial edict easily.

The little eunuch laughed dryly and said, "Master Lin is really good at joking."

Then he cleared his throat and began to read out the imperial edict: "By God's blessing, the emperor decrees..."

The little eunuch was thinking about it, then suddenly stopped, looked at Lin Xiaofeng and said: "Forget it, you don't understand those things, let's just tell you! Lin Xiaofeng, listen, because you saved the Yangtze River disaster, saved When the people are in crisis, the emperor appreciates you and makes you a baron of Yangqu County. You will be rewarded with 200 acres of Yongye land and 200 households with food. You will be admitted to the palace immediately. No mistake. I admire you!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Lin Xiaofeng also had a shocked expression on his face.

The little eunuch looked at everyone with a proud smile on his face.

But someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Master Lin can't leave! We can't live without him!"

Everyone responded to this shout. People rushed forward and surrounded Lin Xiaofeng and the little eunuch. Their eyes were full of reluctance and anger.

They didn't want Lin Xiaofeng to leave them like this!

Some people even started pushing and insulting the little eunuch. The scene was once very chaotic.

"Whoever wants to take you away, I will kill this eunuch!" The crowd roared one after another. People are extremely angry. They would rather resist the order and keep the good county magistrate in their hearts. They think this edict is unfair! They cannot accept such a result!

For a time, the crowd was furious and the crowd was surging, like an unstoppable force.

Some people even raised farm tools, as if to kill the little eunuch.

The little eunuch trembled like chaff, and sat paralyzed on the ground. He held up the imperial edict with one trembling hand, and stretched out his other hand to Lin Xiaofeng, as if seeking a life-saving straw. "Lin... Mr. Lin... Hurry... Take the order quickly, our family can't bear it anymore..."

Lin Xiaofeng finally came to his senses. He angrily yelled at the crowd: "Shut up! I'm not dead yet, why is there such a mess!" This angry shout made the crowd quiet down.

But there were still a few people in the front row wiping away tears and muttering: "You can't go..."

Lin Xiaofeng said loudly: "Let's all disperse! I'm from Yangqu, what are you afraid of! Even if I leave here, I won't go anywhere else!"

After saying that, Lin Xiaofeng quickly helped the little eunuch up and said with a flattering smile: "Thank you for your hard work... May I ask how your majesty knew that I was going to provide disaster relief?"

The little eunuch replied with a smile: "Mr. Lin, you are too polite...I don't know the specifics. I am only responsible for delivering the order, and I don't know about other things..."

Lin Xiaofeng thought to himself: This guy Zheng Shimin actually betrayed me! Next time you see him, you must skin him! If the authorities found out about the illegal expansion of Yangqu County, it would be a serious matter...

Let’s put the current problem aside for now, and then slowly figure out how to solve it later. The crisis is now temporarily over...

Lin Xiaofeng took a deep breath, held the little eunuch's hand and said with a smile: "Don't panic, Yangqu County is a remote and remote area, and there is nothing interesting. How about you stay here for two more days, and I can accompany you around?"

The little eunuch smiled: "You are joking, sir. I have to return to the palace to resume my life... Let's pack our bags quickly and set off as soon as possible!"

"Okay, okay! Thank you for your hard work...Xie Hongxin!"

At this time, Xie Hongxin came over. Lin Xiaofeng signaled to him, and Xie Hongxin immediately stuffed a piece of silver into the little eunuch's sleeve.

Unexpectedly, the silver was so heavy that the little eunuch stumbled and almost fell. He exclaimed: "Master Lin, what do you mean?"

With a dark face, Lin Xiaofeng kicked Xie Hongxin hard and cursed in a low voice: "You idiot! Why did you stuff so much money!"

Xie Hongxin smiled stupidly and took out the money...

Lin Xiaofeng was even more unhappy...

He helped the young eunuch up and said apologetically: "Don't be surprised... my people are ignorant."

Then he felt all over his body, found five copper coins, and stuffed them into his sleeves. The little eunuch heard the jingling sound of copper coins and said with a sad face: "My lord, please don't give it to me!"

Lin Xiaofeng said seriously: "You're welcome!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out two ingots of silver and five copper coins from Xie Hongxin's arms and stuffed them all into the little eunuch's sleeves. The little eunuch widened his eyes, looked at Lin Xiaofeng in horror, and stammered: "This...can I leave?"

Lin Xiaofeng waved his hand: "Let's go! Let's go!"

The little eunuch immediately mounted his horse and galloped away...

･････････････････････････

Lin Taohua walked up to Lin Xiaofeng with a worried look on her face and admonished: "Sir, this is not appropriate. He is a member of the palace after all." Lin Xiaofeng sighed and replied helplessly: "Now that the matter has come to this, we have offended people anyway. It’s better to offend him all at once.”

He looked around at the crowd and announced loudly: "Let's all go home! No need to worry anymore, Yangqu County is still under my jurisdiction! Everyone can go about their business and everything will continue as usual!"

At this moment, a commoner came forward and asked: "Sir, are you not planning to leave Yangqu?" Everyone cast hopeful glances, looking forward to Lin Xiaofeng's answer.

Lin Xiaofeng felt the sincere emotions of the people, but still looked serious and said firmly: "What's wrong! Can't I leave Yangqu County? Isn't my promotion a good thing for you? What are you worried about? !”

With a "wow" sound, the people began to cry.

The people of Yangqu seemed to have lost their nearest and dearest people, shouting and grieving.

"How are we going to live if you leave?"

"I want to go to Beijing to complain! You can't leave, sir. We won't survive if you leave!"

"My lord is gone, what should I do with my daughter! She is only eight years old and will marry you in the future!"

"Bah! Your daughter still wants to be worthy of an adult! My daughter is already fifteen years old! Look at her! Look at her!"

··········

After hearing these words, Lin Xiaofeng's expression softened slightly. He sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, okay! I understand. I will go to Beijing and then come back."

He looked around at the gathered people and emphasized again: "Let's all disperse! If the noise continues like this, I will have to stay in the capital for a long time. It will be really annoying!"

Seeing the people starting to leave one after another, Lin Xiaofeng's expression relaxed. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying to himself: "Oh, these unruly people..."

Just as he was about to return to the Yamen, a graceful voice sounded from behind. Lin Xiaofeng looked back and found a woman walking out of the medical clinic. She was standing leaning on the door frame, her face was pale, and she was looking at him.

"Master Lin, please stay..." the woman said softly.

Lin Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment and looked at the woman carefully. She was dressed in plain clothes and had a delicate face. Although she was a little weak, her beauty could not be concealed.

"Little girl Yin Jiajin, thank you Mr. Lin for saving your life..." the woman said in a weak voice.

"Little Taohua, come here and support her." Lin Xiaofeng ordered. He had some doubts in his heart and didn't understand what was going on with this woman.

Now he just wants to go back to the Yamen as soon as possible to make arrangements for his servants. He knew in his heart that once he entered Beijing, it would probably take a long time to come back. The reward this time was so generous, which made him even more worried.

The baron is already a great reward, and now he is also the tutor of the East Palace.

Something is wrong.

Yin Jiajin had not yet recovered, so she coughed twice and said weakly: "My family members all died in the disaster. Yin Jiajin has nowhere to go now. I am willing to serve you to repay your kindness."

Lin Xiaofeng looked at Yin Jiajin. Although she was a little more awake, she was still beautiful.

His heart palpitated, and he bowed politely: "Yin Jiajin...how do you know that the person who saved you is me?"

The imperial edict is very strange, and so is this woman. She is very beautiful and wants to serve herself... Haha, this is really a dream!

"Jiajin, I woke up several times, and the doctor told me that it was Mr. Lin who saved the slave family." Yin Jiajin knelt on the ground, breathing unsteadily.

"Okay, stand up," Lin Xiaofeng asked calmly, "Where are you from and what do you do at home?"

"My lord, my lord, my little girl is from Changjiang Prefecture, and her family runs a liquor business. However, her family died in the flood, leaving only the little girl. Thanks to your rescue, the little girl is here today."

As she spoke, Yin Jiajin lowered her head slightly, her voice trembling slightly, as if she was about to cry.

Hearing this, Taohua's eyes were slightly moist. She remembered that her parents also passed away at an early age. If Lin Xiaofeng hadn't appeared, her fate might have been the same as Yin Jiajin's. Taohua was so moved that she couldn't help but hold Yin Jiajin's hand tightly, trying to give her some strength.

Lin Xiaofeng quietly observed Yin Jiajin's expression, and he felt that what she said seemed to be true. In Yangqu County, there are many orphans like her who have lost their loved ones, and there is a deep sadness in their eyes...

However, when he heard the word "drinks", Lin Xiaofeng couldn't help but frown slightly.

Damn the wine merchant Zheng Shimin! If this guy hadn't betrayed him, there would be no need to go to the capital!

"Okay, now that the disaster in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River has been resolved, you can go home after you rest for two days!" Lin Xiaofeng said impatiently, "Xiao Taohua, remember to give her some travel expenses, let's go back to the Yamen first!"

After saying this, Lin Xiaofeng turned around and quickly disappeared from Yin Jiajin's sight without the slightest nostalgia.

Yin Jiajin stood there, her eyes full of confusion. She raised her hand and touched her cheek, doubting her own worth and existence. In the past sixteen years, no matter whether her family was prosperous or her life was difficult, she had never felt like this.

Yin Jiajin began to reflect on herself, was she really so unbearable that Lin Xiaofeng had no tenderness for her?

Just when she was deep in thought, Lin Xiaofeng came back!

When Yin Jiajin saw him, a smile immediately broke out on her face.

Sure enough, all men in the world are the same!

I will be close to you when I want you, and I will stay away from you once I get you.

Thinking of this, Yin Jiajin straightened her expression and put on a look of resentment.

"Master Lin..."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you," Lin Xiaofeng approached her with a teasing smile on his face, "I am going back to the Yangtze River. After reorganizing my family business, I will send you the money and medicine expenses."

"I know it's a great tragedy for your relatives to die, but the landlord's family doesn't have any food left. Taohua, let's go!"

After saying this, Lin Xiaofeng left.

Yin Jiajin looked at Lin Xiaofeng's back and didn't know what to say for a moment. A blush suddenly appeared on her face, and her eyes were full of anger and shame.

In sixteen years, she has never suffered such humiliation! A county magistrate actually treated me like this!

However, he has achieved success at a young age, has a title, and will also enter the East Palace...
