    Son of a bitch!!!Chu Yue angrily bit him hard.Xuan Ziming let go of the pain, and Chu Yuebai threw the clothes he had just changed at him when he had a chance.

    "Get out—son of a bitch! Get out!" Chu Yuebai blushed with anger, was he here from the beginning?Completely took him out.

    For the first time, Xuan Ziming, who got a bargain, didn't fight back, and went out honestly.The appearance of Chu Yuebai's slender waist and long legs just now appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help breathing a little bit harder, her eyes darkened.

    "General, is the food not to your liking? Move your chopsticks." The county magistrate has been observing Wei Zijie's expression. He does not move his chopsticks, and a group of people dare not move their chopsticks.

    "My lord hasn't come yet, just wait." Wei Zijie said.

    "Who is this son?" The county magistrate couldn't help asking.He only heard from his superiors that General Wei was coming, but he didn't hear about any young masters. The prison is strict.Judging by his posture, this young master should have a strong background, even bigger than this general.

    "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, otherwise you won't know how you died." Wei Zijie's eyes were dark and frightening.

    "Yes, yes, yes!" The county magistrate hastily wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, the look in his eyes was terrifying.

    After dressing up, Chu Yuebai came to the banquet. As soon as Wei Zijie saw him, he bowed and saluted, "See you, my lord..."

    The generals saluted, and these little minions naturally followed suit.When saluting, the county magistrate couldn't help but look up at Chu Yuebai, secretly wondering who this young man was?Why such a big background?

    Chu Yuebai glanced at the seat next to it, it was empty.This made him breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise he really didn't know how to face Xuan Ye.

    "No courtesy, let's all take your seats." Chu Yuebai said.

    Chu Yuebai inspected the dishes on this table. Although they were not as good as those in the imperial palace, they were much better than the food and drink along the way.

    "Jiangnan is flooded, and there is nothing to entertain you. They are all home-cooked dishes, and I hope you don't dislike them." The county magistrate also seems to be a tactful person who knows how to deal with people.

    "What did the county magistrate say? How could he dislike it? How serious is the flood in Jiangnan? Tell me." Chu Yuebai said after putting some vegetables into a bowl.

    "The crops in the fields were drowned, and even the buildings in some low-lying places were flooded. The streets are full of refugees fleeing for refuge, and people starve to death every day." The county magistrate roughly said this.The situation in the city.

    "What about the supplies that the court sent people to escort over?" After hearing these words, Chu Yuebai felt that the food in the bowl was no longer tasty.

    "It's been eaten long ago. There are too many refugees in the city, and the little food sent by the court alone is not enough to eat. In just a few days, they are all eaten." The county magistrate replied.

    "What about so much food? Even if it's put in the army, it's enough to last for half a month. How come it's eaten up so quickly?" Chu Yuebai's pretty brows frowned, and he felt something was wrong.

    "When the food was delivered, those refugees had been starving for several days. They were all crazy. They would rather starve to death than starve to death. The bags of food were consumed quickly, and theIn just five days, I finished eating." The county magistrate said.

    "How much food is left in this city?" The more Chu Yuebai heard what he said, the more she frowned.

    "There is no surplus food in the city, and even the food on the table is a few bags of surplus food from the lower official's house." The county magistrate began to complain.

    "Are there no rice merchants in this city? The rice merchants' warehouses must have stockpiled grains, and they can be used first for emergencies." Wei Zijie asked from the side.

    "This rice merchant is completely in trouble for the country. It is impossible to hand over the grain at all, and it has even increased to one tael of silver per catty of rice." The county magistrate said.

    Chu Yuebai slapped the table fiercely, so angry that he felt that the food was no longer tasty, "How unreasonable! This is a time when the country is in dire straits? Don't you, the county magistrate, take care of it?"

    "I can't control it! After all, this is the grain bought by others. I can't let someone grab it. If this gets out, how can I be a county magistrate?" The county magistrate said.

    "Do you know what is urgent? Everything has a priority, so what if his food is requisitioned first? In the worst case, you can report to the top and return the food to him, wouldn't it be all right?" Chu YuebaiWhen it comes to business, he really looks like a monarch.

    "What the young master said is that the subordinate officials have neglected their duties." Seeing that the situation was not good, the county magistrate quickly knelt down and admitted his mistake.

    "Forget it, get up. You go tomorrow, forget it, I will go there in person tomorrow, and I want to see how this rice merchant made a fortune for the country." Chu Yuebai was so angry that she stuck her chopsticks inOn the braised pork.

    After tossing and tossing for a long time, Chu Yuebai returned to the room that had been arranged in advance.Before the candles were lit, someone had already pressed against the door and kissed her.This familiar breath, needless to say, he also knew who it was.

    "Xuan Ye, I don't have time to fool around with you right now." Chu Yuebai pushed him away, rubbing her temples with some headache.Just hearing the scene described by the county magistrate gave me a headache.You must have a good rest tonight, there are so many things to do tomorrow.

    "I'll take you somewhere." Xuan Ziming whispered in his ear.

    "I'm not going - it's midnight, don't you have nothing to do?" Chu Yuebai thought he was just looking for trouble, so he didn't bother to perfuse him.

    "You have to go." Xuan Ziming said, and forcibly pulled him away.

    "What are you doing, I said I won't go." Chu Yuebai was really speechless to him, why didn't this person wink at all, was he so tired without looking at him?

    Xuan Ziming forcibly dragged him to the county magistrate's secret warehouse, "Go in and have a look."

    "What did you bring me to see? Where is this?" Chu Yuebai asked impatiently.

    "You'll know when you go in and have a look." Xuan Ziming said.

    Chu Yuebai thought, since everyone is here, let's go in and have a look.See what tricks he wants to play, and pull him to see something in the middle of the night.

    "There is a lock." Chu Yuebai picked up the lock on the door and looked at it.

    "I'll take you in." Xuan Ziming wrapped his arms around his waist and led him through the wall.It was pitch black inside, which made Chu Yuebai feel a little nervous for no reason.

    Xuan Ziming snapped his fingers, and a green flame rose from his fingertips, illuminating the dark place.

    "This is..." Chu Yuebai lost his composure when he saw the contents inside. He picked up the contents of the sack and carefully identified them, "This is rice, so much?"

    "Didn't he say that there is no food left in this city? There is so much more. No! This is government food." Seeing all this, Chu Yuebai figured it out immediately.No wonder he said that the food delivered by the imperial court was quickly eaten up. It turned out that it was not eaten up, but was embezzled by him.
