Fallen Imperial Consort from Heaven - C994 994 Porcine Head and Kidney
Recalling the sight back then, the Grand Master couldn’t help but feel a lingering fear.
A commoner who said that they were scary was not scary at all. They said that they weren’t scary, but if they didn’t care for their lives, then they would be the scariest.
It was a good thing that the victims still had some scruples. Otherwise, when they rushed forward, the soldiers might not be able to stop them.
“Master, what are you going to do now? “When the time comes, the messenger will definitely ask about your emergency grain depot. If he finds out that our grain depot is empty, we won’t be able to explain ourselves.”
Not to mention the lord, even he could guess that the ‘disaster victim’ who mentioned the emergency food depot must have been sent by the messenger to sneak in. Then, he would definitely bring up this matter.
The Zhixian did not speak at the moment, after pondering for a moment, he said: “What are you saying, we are giving out all the emergency food, it is all because of those greedy people who came to the city to cause trouble, although I love the people like the children, but they are causing trouble without reason, when the time comes, we can only bring them to justice.”
When these shameless words came out of Zhixian’s mouth, it was as if it was a common occurrence. It could be seen that he had said these words many times in the past that caused people to despise him.
When the Grand Master heard his words, he was stunned, unable to comprehend what he meant. Just as he was about to speak, seeing the sinister smile on Zhixian’s face, he immediately understood.
“Master, you mean …” Tell the messenger that the emergency grain depot has been distributed? “But with those victims, can the messenger believe them?”
“Are you afraid that you can’t win against those lowly commoners with the word ‘official’? Are there not many cases of rioting among the lowly people since ancient times? “Even if that messenger doesn’t believe us, we are certain that it has already been sent out. Since he doesn’t have any evidence, what can we do about it?”
Master immediately understood what the Zhixian meant, and started to smile like a dog trying to curry favor with him. “Master, you’re brilliant, let’s see what kind of ability you have to get the evidence from our hands.”
Zhixian snorted with pride and played with the jade thumb ring on his thumb, and said: “However, no matter what, he is still a waiter, if we can treat each other well, we will naturally have to treat him well, and do not treat him disrespectfully. A first rank official in the capital, if we can curry favor with him, we will naturally curry favor with him.”
The Grand Master understood these words very well. It was probably because the ones that could bribe were mainly bribes, and those that couldn’t, would think of other ways.
“I understand.”
On the second day, Yan Yuan and his group appeared outside the county magistrate’s entrance. Other than the couple, there were also Lu Yuan He and his two casual bodyguards.
As for those hidden guards, they were naturally hidden in the dark and no one knew of them.
“Who are you!”
“How dare you! Lord Messenger is here, why aren’t your Zhixian coming out to welcome him!”
One of the guards beside Yan Yuan scolded sternly.
The imperial guards, especially the imperial guards, were not something that a county yamen runner could compare to. The moment the guard came out and scolded them, plus what he had said, the yamen runner completely believed him and the arrogant look on his face immediately disappeared.
“Wait…” “Please wait a moment, I shall immediately report to my lord.”
He immediately ran towards the magistrate court.
“Humph!” “There really is such a dog-lord, yet there is such a dog slave!”
Liu Ruo Qing cursed with a cold face, and very quickly, Zhixian, who had received the news, brought his family of elders and children to the entrance to welcome them.
“I am Yizhou Zhixian, Zhu Yi Dou, and my whole family will welcome Lord Ginkou.”
With that, he sneaked a glance in Yan Yuan’s direction. Just that glance alone made him shiver subconsciously.
The officials from the capital were not the same. He was a local tyrant, but in front of all these officials, he still felt inferior. Moreover, this man was the emperor’s official minister.
Without waiting for Yan Yuan to speak, a voice suddenly came out from the side, bringing along with it an inconceivable shock, “It’s you!”
The crowd followed the voice and looked over. The speaker was the woman from that day, kneeling on the ground with her child, asking for medicine.
“Shou’er, don’t be so presumptuous!”
Zhu Yi Dou bellowed, she turned and stared at the man unhappily, then stepped forward and begged for forgiveness: “Please calm your anger, this is my son, Zhu Shen, and he is usually spoiled badly by this official, if he dares offend you, please forgive him.”
Yan Yuan did not answer, his gaze only lightly swept across Zhu Ling. With just a glance, he scared Zhu Ling so much that his neck shrank back, and his body subconsciously moved behind Zhu Yi Dou.
So this man was the imperial official. It was no wonder that he exuded such a frightening aura that day. The officials of the capital were not the same.
Zhu Ling was a tyrant in the Yizhou, but after leaving the Yizhou, especially in the capital city, he knew that most probably no one took him seriously.
Looking at Yan Yuan, although he did not say a word, his entire body had already turned stiff.
Seeing that Yan Yuan was suddenly smiling at him with a hint of unknown meaning, caused his entire body to tremble.
He tried hard to recall if he had said anything to offend him. Fortunately, he had been so frightened by the man’s aura that he had restrained himself. Otherwise, he would have gotten himself into big trouble.
Just as he was rejoicing inwardly, Yan Yuan had already retracted his gaze from his body, and said to Zhu Yi Dou: “It’s fine.”
Zhu Yi Dou heaved a sigh of relief. Originally, he thought that this young man was just a wet behind the ears, and that he would have thousands of ways to deal with him. However, after just meeting him once, his imposing aura couldn’t help but be suppressed, and was a little breathless.
He had never met a few officials, even the King Carefree’s feudal fiefdom, he had never seen one where a mere assistant minister could look down upon the world, what kind of kings were the princes in the capital then?
Zhu Yi Dou’s heart was a little empty, but on the surface, it did not show it.
“Please come in, milord.”
With that, Zhu Yi Dou turned and followed beside Yan Yuan, welcoming them all the way in.
Liu Ruo Qing suppressed her laughter and moved closer to Yan Yuan, gently pulling at his sleeves, Yan Yuan turned his head to look at her, slightly leaning towards her, “What’s wrong?”
Liu Ruo Qing snuck beside his ear, held back her laughter, and said: “This father and son duo are like their names, and did not feel wronged at all by the way they call themselves.”
Yan Yuan was startled, and immediately understood the meaning of Liu Ruo Qing’s words.
Zhu Yi Dou, the pig head!
Zhu Ling, Pig Kidney!
The corner of Yan Yuan’s mouth twitched as well. With a tone that carried both pampering and helplessness, he bent down and said, “Naughty!”
Zhu Yi Dou looked like a pig, with his fat head and ears.
As for Zhu Zhen, although he wasn’t as fat as his father, he had a completely pig-waisted face. His name, “Pig Kidney”, was quite fitting.
The couple looked at each other and smiled, then walked inside with tacit understanding.
The intimate and loving interactions between the two, naturally, could not escape Zhu Yi Dou’s eyes, and he guessed that the relationship between the two was definitely not simple.
