Ace's favorite concubine: Xiangmen's concubine

Chapter 208 Drought in Yun County (2)

The situation in Yunjun was more difficult than expected. After Wu Danqing and Lu Boqi arrived, not only did they not make any progress, but they were attacked by two groups of assassins in succession.

Upon hearing this, the emperor immediately dispatched another [-] elite soldiers to protect the post house where Wu Danqing and Lu Boqi lived so that even a fly could not fly in.

Seeing that the overall situation could not be investigated, Wu Danqing turned to Qi County, where the drought was the worst in Yun County, and stayed at the county magistrate's mansion that night.

In the middle of the night, Lu Boqi quietly woke up Wu Danqing, pulled him up, and carefully inspected the entire county magistrate's mansion.

The furnishings in the mansion are very simple, and there are only a few corn buns left over from the daytime in the kitchen. The brown rice and vegetables they eat seem to be the best food in the mansion.

The night wind in Qi County made people feel comfortable, but it brought a bit of coolness. The two checked it out, stared at the Wowotou in the kitchen, looked at each other, and then went back to the room.

Wu Danqing kept frowning, Lu Boqi saw him like this, and asked suspiciously, "Brother Wu, do you think there is something wrong?"

Only then did Wu Danqing loosen his brows, and thoughtfully said, "I just think that Yun County's morals are so corrupt, it's really admirable that the Qi County Prime Minister can get out of the mud without being stained."

"Qi County is relatively remote from Yun County, and this place is barren. Maybe the corruption in Yun County has not blown here. Tomorrow, I will ask the county magistrate how much money has been allocated to Qi County, and then we can get a glimpse of the overall situation. "Lu Boqi raised his brows and said affirmatively.

"Yes, we will find out tomorrow."

"But speaking of it, I harmed you. If I had known that the water in Yun County was so muddy, I shouldn't have recommended you to the emperor." Lu Boqi apologized.

He knew that the situation in Yun County was not good, but the relationship between officials was so complicated that he didn't expect it.

Yun County is relatively close to Yujing, and it is located in the beautiful south of the Yangtze River. Many dignitaries and dignitaries in Yujing have separate family properties here, some for the elderly, and some for resettling part of their families.

For example, Gao Taifu, whose wife was as vicious as a tiger, placed a concubine he loved very much in Yunjun, and the son born to this concubine happened to marry the daughter of the sheriff of Yunjun.

For another example, through Pei Zhaohe's relationship, Minister of the Ministry of Rites demoted his cousin, who was the servant of the Ministry of War, to Yi County, the most affluent county in Yun County, and became the county magistrate.

Such examples can be found everywhere!
"Let's rest first. We will start investigating the case tomorrow. If you don't have enough energy, how can you deal with these foxes?" Lu Boqi saw Wu Danqing sitting in front of a dim oil lamp and meditating, he smiled and threw him away. Pushing into the inner room, I went to the next room by myself.

After the calculation was made, Wu Danqing should have been asleep, and a black shadow swept out of the county magistrate's mansion under the cover of night.

"My lord, do you still want to send dead soldiers to assassinate Wu Danqing?" In the dark dense forest, a man knelt on the ground and asked in a hoarse voice.

"No need, everything I want to know has been confirmed. On the contrary, I want you to secretly assist Wu Danqing to complete the Yun County disaster fund case."

"Yes, this subordinate will do it right away!" The man was stunned for a moment, then replied in a low voice, before disappearing into the depths of the dark forest.

The person who had stood for a long time finally laughed lightly. The real good show has only now begun.

He was looking forward to it. On the day when Pei Yuzhang became Ning Yuyao's concubine, what would his reaction be when he saw Wu Danqing who was pushed to that position by Lu Boqi?
