Chapter 133 Timely Rain

The sky in early autumn was azure, and it wasn't even clouded by the torrential floods.

Jin Xi stared at Anyang Hou coldly, his face expressionless, and his hand holding up the imperial envoy's token remained motionless.In the eyes of outsiders, she seemed extremely calm, but only she knew that she was frightened.

It was obvious that Anyang Hou jumped out at this time, even if the token in his hand was real, he would not let it go.What's more, this token is fake.

Swallowing in secret, Jin Xi bit the bullet and said, "Forgive me, it's hard to obey!"

Marquis Anyang seemed to have expected her to say this, and said with a gentle smile without being annoyed: "Miss Zhou, do you want to say that as a vassal king, I cannot interfere in local government affairs, so I am not qualified to inspect the imperial envoy token?"

The only excuse was given out first, and Jin Xi felt her eyes darken, and she really wanted to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead.I turned around this idea several times, but finally didn't dare to implement it.It's not that she thinks the ground is dirty, but she knows in her heart that if she pretends to be dead right now, the magistrate will be waiting for her.

"Since Lord Hou understands, you don't have to make things difficult for me!" Jin Xi smiled faintly, ready to play dumb to the end.

But Anyang Hou didn't follow her wishes. He walked up to Jin Xi with square steps, his smile disappeared, and he said coldly: "I, the Su family's chef for generations, naturally have to share your worries. And sit idly by. You..."

"Since you want to share your worries, what is Anyang Hou doing when the people have nothing to eat or drink? Where is Anyang Hou when the Japanese spies are inquiring? Just now the victims of the disaster are gathered here. Tell me, how do you resettle the victims? Outside the city How do the victims survive the winter? How to prevent the epidemic? How to deal with the collapsed houses, destroyed fertile fields, and collapsed rivers? It is rare to see Lord Hou. Please come up with a charter in public. As long as you take over the matter , I’ll show you the imperial envoy’s token, otherwise…” Jin Xi paused, then suddenly emphasized, “Otherwise, you are not qualified!”

Who doesn't know how to change the concept secretly, someone wants to pick up this hot potato, she can't wait to throw it out!

Anyang Hou's face turned pale, and he didn't seem to expect Jin Xi to throw all these problems at him in the blink of an eye.While hesitating, Jinxi winked at Zhou Qingniu.Zhou Qingniu is also a character who hangs out on the pier. Although he is not smart, he is by no means a fool. He immediately understands, calls two of his subordinates to lift him up, puts his hands to his mouth, and shouts loudly: "Master Hou promised to resettle the victims. Eat and live. If you are sick, you will be treated, and if you die, you will be buried."

Jin Xi secretly gave Zhou Qingniu a thumbs-up. Seeing that he had guessed right, Zhou Qingniu immediately stretched his neck and shouted, "Every family's house, fertile land, and ship are damaged according to the price!"

Qian Zhong just woke up at this time, the corners of his eyes twitched when he heard this, natural disasters and man-made disasters, what kind of compensation will the Anyang Marquis Mansion pay?This is not a small number of 300 taels and 500 taels. The Holy Majesty had to evacuate the treasury for disaster relief, borrow from east to west, and dismantle the Anyang Marquis Mansion into pieces, but it can't control the lives of so many people.

"What nonsense!" Anyang Houqi's face turned pale, never expecting that his own master not only failed to restrain this fluffy girl Jin Xi, but was instead swayed by her.

"Master Hou repented!" Jin Xi yelled out, not afraid of the seriousness of the matter.Zhou Qingniu on the side somehow got the hang of it, and without Jin Xi's instructions, he yelled the words again like a megaphone.The victims who waited with their ears on their ears suddenly exploded.

Whether it is the magistrate or the waiter, they don't care who provides food relief, they only care about whether they can eat or not.After the disaster, is there someone to take care of their life and death, and can they find a house to escape the cold in winter.Hearing Zhou Qingniu's yell just now, the disaster victims who were on the verge of despair seemed to see hope, but Zhou Qingniu changed the subject, and the hope they had just ignited instantly turned into a delusion.

Isn't this playing with them like monkeys?

"Poor people are human beings too, and they have to live. How can the majestic master spoil the poor like this!" A thin old man over half a century old in the crowd patted his head with his hands and cried loudly, "God, you have no eyes. His daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, and grandson all drowned, leaving me alone! I’m dead!”

Crying and crying, he pushed aside the crowd and slammed into the pile of stones left in the stove.The incident happened suddenly, before the people around could react, he had already bumped into it.With a bang, the head shattered, blood splashed everywhere, and then white brains flowed out.Without even humming, he died.

It was so tragic that the surrounding victims were stunned.Even though Jin Xi had seen the dead several times, he didn't dare to look again.He closed his eyes and shivered all over, not out of fright but out of anger, this old man is fighting against the injustice of fate with his life and death!
The world is not benevolent, and everything is treated as a straw dog. What else in the world is worse than this?
"The Marquis of Anyang killed people in full view. If you don't give an explanation, don't even think about leaving this place!" Opening her eyes fiercely, Jin Xi gritted her teeth. proud.

Marquis Anyang didn't expect such an accident. Originally, he only needed to encourage the victims to rush into the porridge shed, and let these mud legs see with their own eyes that there was no food in the porridge shed, and the rest would come naturally.

Under the felony of embezzlement of disaster relief food, Qin Xiao, a bastard, even if he is a dragon, can't make waves!
Counting thousands and thousands of times, you shouldn't be greedy and want to kill the troubles forever with one arrow, but this fluffy girl seized the opportunity to turn things around!
Jin Xi doesn't care about what Anyang Hou thinks at this time, she only cares about how to stabilize the hearts of the people, and at the same time let these people stand firmly on her side, and at the same time secretly pray that Qin Xiao will come back with food.

After all, Anyang Hou is an old fox who has been through the wind and rain. He has already thought of the countermeasures while he was panting. The empress is also concerned about it day and night, and this marquis is even more responsible. All the common people who rent the land and boats of this marquis will be free of rent this year, and will be reduced by half next year. If the boats and houses are destroyed, they will report the truth to the steward of the mansion after the water recedes. After verification, money should be allocated for repair.

As for the people in the city, I donated three years' salary to help my father and fellow villagers tide over the difficulties.After the river is dredged, I will personally go to Beijing to meet the Holy Majesty, intercede for the elders, and reduce or exempt taxes.Never sit idly by! "

As soon as the real charter was exported, the disaster victims cheered.Jin Xi looked at the sky and sighed, the man is old and the horse is old, and Anyang Hou is a fox who turns into a spirit. With his tongue in his mouth, he sold the imperial court for favors. .

Before Jinxi could figure out a countermeasure, he heard someone from behind the crowd sneer, "The Marquis of Anyang is so shameless! Rent exemption in disasters is a reasonable thing, do you have the nerve to say it as a serious favor?"

Stretching her neck to follow the voice and looking over, Jin Xi's eyes filled with tears immediately, the Buddha has spirit, she is saved!Seeing the person clearly, Anyang Hou's pupils shrank sharply, but he regained his composure in an instant, but his lips were slightly blue, and he said with a blunt smile: "I haven't seen Mr. Yun Zong for many years. I am so happy to see you today." Get out!"

Mr. Yun Zong didn't know what to do, his skin was tanned, and his face was exhausted.He smiled, and opened his mouth to reveal his poisonous tongue, "Seeing this old man, you must be overjoyed, not out of your wits?"

"Sir, why did you say that?" Anyang Hou twisted his beard and laughed, as if he heard a big joke.

Mr. Yun Zong also laughed, "This is the best!"

The two acted as if no one was there, not to mention that there was a dead body with brains and blood all over the place next to them, and their smile was so weird that Jin Xi couldn't help shivering, trying to reduce the sense of existence.A master's move, killing people invisible!
But Anyanghou didn't want to let her go, so he stopped laughing abruptly, pointed at Jinxi and said, "Sir, you have taken in a good student!" Jinxi's scalp tingled when he heard the gnashed tone.

"Master Hou is absurd!" Mr. Yun Zong caressed the top of Jinxi's head, put the imperial envoy token in her hand into his sleeve, and tilted his mouth to signal Jinxi to leave this wrong place. However, meeting Anyanghou's staring eyes, the conversation changed abruptly, "However, this disciple of mine has done some great things for the country and the people, and this old man will definitely write a letter for her!"

Jin Xi hadn't gone far, and these words fell into her ears like a bomb, and her feet were so soft that if it wasn't for a hand stretched out to support her, she would definitely fall into the mud.Before returning to her soul, she heard the person who supported her say with a playful smile: "Is this what you are good for?"

"You just came back from death just now!" With a familiar voice and a familiar tone, Jin Xi's eyes were suddenly wet with grievances, and he raised his head to stare at Qin Xiao and cursed, unaware that his words were full of resentful women's accents.

Qin Xiao wiped her face with his sleeve, admitted his mistake, and said, "I broke my promise, I'm sorry! There was a little accident on the road, but it was all resolved!"

Jin Xi stared at him blankly, her first thought was to see where the sun came out from today, this guy actually apologized?She wanted to make a joke, but when she heard the word "accident", her heart skipped a beat, her throat was dry and her eyes were dry, and she grabbed his arm to look him up and down.He asked anxiously, "What accident? Are you injured?"

"Fool!" Qin Xiao's clothes were pulled into a mess by Jin Xi, but he didn't lose face abnormally, and slapped her on the head with crooked eyebrows.

Jin Xi shrinks her neck in fright, and knows that this is not the time to be in a hurry to ask for food, so she tactfully hid behind Qin Xiao, and heard Anyang Hou Leng Sensen say to Mr. Yun Zong: "Your disciple is holding a fake imperial envoy today. card, give orders, are you guilty as a gentleman?"

Mr. Yun Zong sneered, "Which of your eyes saw that the token in that girl's hand is fake?"

Anyang Hou was tough to the end, "This Marquis will be tested in public!"

Jin Xi shivered in fright, Anyang Hou couldn't be rude to a little girl like her in public, it didn't mean he would treat Mr. Yun Zong politely.Before he could stop the words, Mr. Yun Zong took out the imperial envoy badge from his sleeve and threw it into Anyang Hou's arms.

His movements are chic, and his expression is calm... When Jin Xi's eyes are dark, he wants to pretend to be dead.Everyone else is cheating, and she was cheated by her father!
The adoptive father is also a father...
