Chapter 478: I can help you

Chapter 478 I can help you

Su Ying didn't know that Wei Zhongming was still typing her small report behind her back.

She sneered, "Is this old boy trying to blame me for all the crimes? In the future, I will twist him into a ball and kick him like a ball."

Wei Zhongming deserved to die for what he did as a magistrate, but it was his shady thoughts that led him to find Su Ying. Because of this, Xiao Jin decided to give Wei Zhongming a chance to die. However, sometimes alive, It would be better to die.

"Where did you go when you fell off the dam?" Xiao Jin's voice was hoarse. After asking this question, his heart trembled inexplicably, which made him think of how painful it was to miss Su Ying every day and night. .

Su Ying knew that he would definitely ask, and she had already thought up her words, "At that time, I was close to death, and I almost felt that I was going to die, but when I woke up, I was hanging on a driftwood, because the current was so fast that I They didn’t dare to go ashore by force, so they were rushed to a far place, and it took a lot of effort to return to Chu.”

In a few calm words, Xiao Jin could imagine the danger at that time.

But he still wanted to know where she was and what she went through during the months when she disappeared?

"Where did you go? Why didn't you send me a letter?" His low voice was choked with faint sobs.

Su Ying moved to his side and gently leaned on his arms to calm his flustered emotions.

"I caught a small wooden boat on the way, was brought to the sea, washed into the sea, and was saved by fishermen on the island and survived. Later, I waited for the arrival of the big boat on the island before I was able to dock in the state of Jin. .”

"After I left the state of Chu, I also thought about sending you a letter, but I haven't found a suitable channel, and I'm afraid that the letter will be robbed by someone with a heart, so I will give up on it for the time being."

Xiao Jin held her hand and interlocked her fingers, "Before you came back, there was news sent out of the palace, saying that there was news about you. After you came back to Chu, did you meet anyone? "

Su Ying shook her head. She never took off her disguise until she wanted to reveal her identity. Even people who knew her could not know her identity through her disguise, so she was sure that there was no Anyone who knows her whereabouts.

"No, absolutely not."

Su Ying frowned, "Someone wants to use my whereabouts to deceive you."

Xiao Jin nodded, "Well, I have sent someone to find out who is behind the trick, but the other party was very clever and did things very secretly, without leaving any clues."

Hearing this, Su Ying felt that Xiao Jin wanted to return to Beijing as soon as possible.

"You go back to Beijing first, I'll wait for the people from the Ministry of Industry here."

Xiao Jin refused without thinking, "No, let's go together."

Xiao Jin knew that she was worried about the situation in Beijing, "With Lord Jingguo here, there will be no serious problems in the court for the time being. Hurry up, and people will arrive in a few days."

The previous Cangjiang Dam and the drought in Luocheng also made Xiao Jin realize a serious problem. The central imperial power still has too little restraint on the localities, otherwise Wei Zhongming would have the courage to dare to sway the government.

Such an important project as the Cangjiang Dam can have such a big flaw, and the corruption in it is heinous. If he can't find a way to weigh the pros and cons, it will be difficult for Chu to go far. This is a question he needs to think about as the king of a country .

Su Ying knew that Xiao Jin's decision would not be changed easily, so he could only try to arrange things here before leaving Los Angeles.

Xiao Jin will deal with the drought. When Xiao Jin is busy, Su Ying goes into the space to get the dug up corpses to study.

The carbonization of the corpse is too serious, it is difficult to research what she wants to get from it, and every detail needs to be pondered over and over again, so even if she studied from early to late, Su Ying still didn't find much.

Wei Zhongming was also in a state of desperation. Xiao Jin asked him to get all the official rations within three days. On the same day, he found those merchants who were involved with him, and asked them to spare no effort to find rations for him.

But these merchants didn’t know if they got some rumors, and they all felt that Wei Zhongming was going to die, so they just dealt with him on the surface, sending someone to send one or two hundred packs of grain as a show, and there was nothing to do.

There are tens of thousands of packs of official rations, and it’s not even a fraction of what it takes to send them over!

"These lowly merchants, fortunately, they can do it. Before, they all nodded and bowed like dogs when they asked me for help. Now they are all hiding when I ask for it!" Wei Zhongming was very angry. One day has passed, and he has collected less than 3,000 bags of grain. Where will he get the rest? Even if he had sent someone to buy it in a nearby city, it was still far from enough!

At this time, the attendant came to the door and reported: "My lord, Miss Zhou is asking to see you."

Wei Zhongming raised his brows, he didn't know what Zhou Xiangrong was doing here at this time, but he was at least a credit to himself, he might be able to save his life at a critical moment, so he asked his attendants to bring him in.

Zhou Xiangrong was still dressed in a blue gauze dress, looking peaceful and delicate, "Greetings, my lord."

Wei Zhongming waved his hands in confusion, "Miss Zhou is up, I wonder if Miss Zhou is asking to see me at this time, but is there something wrong?"

Zhou Xiangrong glanced at the butler in the room, "My little girl has something to say to the adults."

Wei Zhongming made everyone in the room retreat.

After the study door was closed, he said, "Just say what you have to say."

"The little girl knows that the adult is in a little trouble now, and the little girl is not talented, so there is a way to help the adult."

Wei Zhongming sharpened his eyes, and said with a sneer, "What trouble does this officer encounter?"

Facing his fierce gaze, Zhou Xiangrong remained calm, "My little girl feels that even if those merchants don't have 10,000 bags in their hands, they should be able to get 8,000. It's just that they believe that the situation is over for you, and they don't want to hurt your life for him anymore. It's just profit."

"How did you know this?"

Zhou Xiangrong said with a slight smile: "After meeting those merchants, my lord, they talked a lot all the way. My daughter heard it from them. Now my daughter has a way to make them obediently hand over the food."

Wei Zhongming is now at a loss. Although he knows that Zhou Xiangrong has a purpose, he is also curious about what flowers she can say.

"Tell me about your method."

Zhou Xiangrong took a step forward, "My little girl heard that Master Wei was a disciple of Lord Jingguo back then, and after the emperor ascended the throne, he reused Lord Jingguo, if the Lord can rely on Duke Jing's influence, he must be able to escape this catastrophe. "

Wei Zhongming was indeed appreciated by Lord Yasukuni when he first came to prominence, and he got his first job with the help of Lord Yasukuni.

But in this situation, will Lord Yasukuni still help him?
