Chapter 180 The disaster of extinction
The door of the granary had already been opened, and there was a "squeaky" sound. The people looked inside, and after seeing the situation inside, they all turned their heads and covered their mouths to prevent themselves from spitting out.

The moment the prefect of Yingzhou saw the barn door open, his complexion suddenly changed and he became extremely pale.

Horror suddenly appeared in Yun Changyi's eyes, as if frozen, unable to move.

In the granary, there was no grain of millet, densely packed suckling mice crawling on the ground and walls, many green snakes were entangled with each other, wriggling slowly, sometimes, raising their heads, biting a few suckling mice, even chewing Before it was too late, he swallowed it into the snake's belly, making the snake's body bulge and swell.

Everyone stood at the door, watching the green snake swallow the suckling rat alive, leaving the green snake's saliva and the remains of the suckling rat on the ground.

The prefect of Yingzhou asked Xia Haiyan in panic, "Lord Xia, where is the food in it? Could it be eaten up by snakes and rats?"

Xia Haiyan's face was condensed, and after a while, he calmly shouted: "Yingzhou prefect, you can be convicted!"

"The imperial court specially set up a permanent warehouse to adjust the price of grain and store grain to prepare for shortages. It cannot be used casually at ordinary times. And you have been running rampant in the countryside for several years. Not only did you resell the disaster relief grain allocated by the imperial court to make a profit from it, turning the granary into a Snake dens and mouse dens, and they form cliques everywhere to seek personal gain, withholding salary, their crimes should be punished!"

The face of the prefect of Yingzhou alternated between one blue and one white, very exciting.

Everyone looked at him with contempt in their eyes, and he fell into the sound of swearing all of a sudden.

He still wanted to open his mouth to say something more, but he saw that the carriage of Prince Yu's Mansion stopped at the gate of the granary, and an iron rider hurried forward and handed over a letter.

"Xia Shilang, this is a letter written by the prince. A few days ago, Prince Yu's mansion was robbed, and a Jiangyang thief stole the prince's most beloved jade statue. After the portrait, it was handed over to the prefect of Yingzhou to resell it."

"My lord ordered me to come here and tell Xia Shilang that Xia Shilang retrieve the jade statue and punish the perpetrators severely!"

Xia Haiyan nodded slightly, and then asked suspiciously: "I don't know who is in the car?"

The iron rider replied: "In the car are Princess Yu and Princess Yu's younger brother, Young Master Feng. The princess heard that Weicheng was in a catastrophe, so she asked the prince to allow her to come to Weicheng, and the prince asked Young Master Feng to accompany her."

After all, a pair of hands with some baby fat opened the curtain, revealing a fair face, no doubt it was Feng Junyi.

The suspicion between Xia Haiyan's brows became heavier, and Feng Xihe also felt puzzled, not knowing what Gu Shiyin was going to do.

She may not have seen Feng Junyi for a long time, but, in the current situation, it is inconvenient to meet him.

"Your official must live up to Prince Yu's entrustment." After a while, Xia Haiyan looked away from the carriage and asked someone to guide the carriage of Prince Yu's Mansion to the other courtyard first.

Feng Xihe was about to go to the medicine shed to look for Mulanyou, but when she felt a poisonous snake-like gaze staring at her in the dark, she turned around and turned back.

She knew exactly whose gaze it was.

At the corner of the street, Gu Jincheng quietly put down the curtain of the car, with anger hidden in his eyes, he ordered to Ben Lei: "Go and find the Lord Anle!"

Ben Lei nodded slightly, accepting the order.

Xia Haiyan took people to the prefect's mansion to search. After finding the rumored stolen Kunlun jade statue, he listed the ten crimes of the prefect of Yingzhou, ransacked his home, and swept his wings.

Just a moment ago, the prefect of Yingzhou was imagining that he had money in his hands and a beautiful concubine in his arms, but in the next moment, when he was caught off guard, he was already put on shackles, imprisoned, and suffered a catastrophe.

After the prefect's mansion was sealed up, all the property obtained from the ransacking was confiscated and used as disaster relief money.

As for the grain that was originally stored in the granary, it had already been transferred to another place when the prefect of Yingzhou went to give porridge.

When Ji Shiliu walked out of the prefect's mansion with a jade statue covered in red silk cloth in his arms, Feng Xihe stepped forward and stopped him, his eyes resting on the jade statue.

Ji Shiliu raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked calmly, "Do you want to see it?"

Feng Xihe bit her lower lip, but she didn't answer and wanted to walk away.

However, Ji Shiliu quickly uncovered the red silk cloth, Feng Xihe looked over anxiously, the jade was transparent, and the woman carved on the jade statue was indeed as beautiful as a fairy, but she didn't recognize it.

"Disappointed?" Ji Shiliu's expressionless face showed a lively smile, like the top of a snow mountain, melting ice and snow.

Seeing the disappointed look in Feng Xihe's eyes, he said again: "Of course it's fake. How could Prince Yu take out the real Kunlun jade statue as bait."

Feng Xihe still didn't speak, he held up the jade statue and shook it in front of her eyes, he couldn't help joking: "Or, even if you know it's fake, you still want to take a look to feel at ease?"

After the words fell, Feng Xihe was slightly stunned, thinking deeply, what happened to her, why she insisted on seeing the jade statue even though she knew it was fake.

After a while, she collected her expression, raised her eyes and said, "Since it's fake, where are you taking it now?"

Ji Shiliu said: "There is a pattern of a plum blossom dart on the jade statue. The plum blossom dart is a hidden weapon of the Poison Sect. After verification, that Jiangyang bandit is a member of the Poison Sect. Since the prefect of Yingzhou has a deal with him, he must be with the Poison Sect." There is also an inescapable relationship. As this jade statue is an important evidence of crime, it is naturally handed over to Lord Xia for disposal."

It turned out that Gu Shiyin had this idea. Over the years, the prefect of Yingzhou has collected a lot of money for Gu Jincheng. If the prefect of Yingzhou can get involved with the Poison Sect, the clues between Gu Jincheng and the Poison Sect will soon be revealed. Discovered by Emperor Changde.

Feng Xihe lowered his eyelashes slightly, and turned to make way for Ji Shiliu.

Ji Shiliu was a little puzzled, "Don't you want to know who the so-called Princess Yu is?"

Feng Xihe said with a smile: "When you should know, you will naturally know."

After finishing speaking, she turned around. She heard that Princess Yu, who came in the carriage of Prince Yu's Mansion, seemed to have difficulty in her legs and feet.

But Feng Junyi is beside that Princess Yu, if there is any problem, Feng Junyi will not hide it from her.

There was a drizzle of rain in the sky, and when it hit the back of the hand, one could feel a biting cold.

The people in Weicheng were all cheering for the punishment of the prefect of Yingzhou and his party, and Mulanyou's medicine shed was also very lively.

Feng Xihe came to the medicine shed with an oil-paper umbrella, and immediately saw Mulanyou sitting at the front, attentively treating the people.

Mulanyou also saw Feng Xihe, but she didn't get up to say hello to Feng Xihe.

Feng Xihe waited for a long time before Mulanyou finished her work. She planned to pack up and go home. It can be seen that Feng Xihe hadn't left yet, and Xinyue frowned slightly.

"Miss Xia, are you here for my consultation?" Mulanyou didn't avoid it, but looked directly at her, just like looking at other people.

Feng Xihe sighed in her heart, and then she choked up and said, "I'm here to ask Miss Mu, is the medicinal material delivered to the medicine shed the day before yesterday still enough?"

Mulanyou's expression was slightly stagnant, and she said in surprise: "It turns out that the medicinal materials in the medicine shed were sent by you."

"Xi..." Her eyes turned slightly, and she almost slipped her mouth.

Mulanyou immediately corrected herself, looked around, and replied: "It is enough, but there is still a lack of sika antlers to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. In this winter, there are relatively few sika deer. I plan to go to the mountains in two days have a look."

Feng Xihe lowered his eyes, thought for a while, and said, "The mountain road is dangerous, and it's not safe for you to go there alone. I'll take someone to go with you."

"No..." Mulanyou's lips parted slightly, but before she could refuse, Feng Xihe said again: "There are not many doctors in Weicheng, and even if there are many, their medical skills are not as good as yours. If something happens to you, then Who will treat the injured people?"

Moreover, if something happens to her, how will she explain to Feng Junyao when she goes back.

Seeing that she couldn't evade the excuse, Mulan nodded after thinking about it, agreed, and made an appointment with her to go to the forest to pick antlers tomorrow.

At this time, in the mountains and forests of Weicheng, the pine trees were dripping water, like pearls, dripping into a calm lake.

The name of the lake is Yuye Lake. Yuye Lake is located in the upper reaches of the main river of Weicheng. Because Weicheng has abundant rain all year round, under normal circumstances, the gates of Yuye Lake are not opened.

Gu Jincheng stood in front of the lake with his hands behind his back, his gaze was as calm as the water of the lake, the water droplets from the pine tree dripped onto his white robe, wet the corner of the robe, and hit the back of his hand, he also remained unmoved.

Yun Changyi stood behind him for a long time before calling out uneasily, "Second Highness..."

Gu Jincheng turned his head suddenly and looked at her, with flames in his eyes.

"Yun Changyi, you have been working in the household department for so long, is it just to make wedding dresses for people?"

It turned out that Yun Changyi had sworn to him that there would be no more accidents this time.

However, the statistics of the household department's disaster situation are consistent with those of the prefect of Yingzhou. Shang Shu was dismissed from office and investigated.

From then on, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to insert his own people in the household department.

Yun Changyi showed a look of grievance in her eyes, and she said, "Second Highness, after so long, haven't you seen Feng..."

"Have you said enough!" Gu Jincheng's eyes were dark, and he shouted sharply: "Don't rush to push away all your mistakes. Wait until you think of a solution, and then tell me about it."

"Before that, you don't need to worry about her and other things!"

Yun Changyi stared into her beautiful eyes in disbelief, and she wanted to continue talking.

"Yun Changyi, weigh it yourself, if you don't listen to me, then you will find another way out!" Gu Jincheng said, and walked away without giving her another look.

In fact, that's what he planned in his heart. Yun Changyi's performance disappointed him again and again. If she was not only of no help to him, but a drag on the contrary, he would just kick her away.

Yun Changyi stared angrily at the quiet lake, feeling more and more unwilling.

At this moment, she suddenly thought of a person who also came to Weicheng, and that was Feng Junyi.
