The Five-and-a-Half-Year-Old Prince: Opening Up Wastelands and Being Pampered

After the ascension of the new emperor, Gu Yuzhi, only five years old, was exiled to Mobei with the title of Prince Wen. Ministers objected, officials sympathized, and even his retinue believed he ...

Chapter 269 Little Prince, You've Been Kicked Out of the Group Chat

After Gu Yuzhi said this, Xie Changshi could no longer be angry with Prefect Ke and General Lu!

It was just a one-time collaboration to put sacks together. When it came to making decisions, didn't His Highness think of himself first?

Sure enough, in the young prince's heart, only he himself is the most reliable and important!

With Xie Changshi's mood brightening, things could proceed smoothly from there.

Thanks to Xie Changshi's arrangements, the second sack-catching operation in Quanzhou went very smoothly. Some people were even kidnapped by Qi Shiwei before they even entered the alley.

In less than half a night, all the people who had made things difficult for Guard Zhang in the tent were tricked!

Gu Yuzhi had been running around all night, his eyes were bright and his face was rosy, showing no signs of fatigue!

He just felt it was so exciting and thrilling!

He'd be happier if he'd kidnapped someone, beaten them, and then run away than if he'd bought two mines today!

That's right, that's right. Because of Magistrate Ke's favoritism, Gu Yuzhi bought two jade mines that were neither too big nor too small, but had only been discovered recently.

Furthermore, the geomancer brought by Prefect Ke has confirmed that these two mines, which were only recently discovered, are rich in mineral resources, despite their small size.

Gu Yuzhi was in a great mood all day as the number of mines increased from one to two.

After throwing the last person into the mass grave, Gu Yuzhi clapped his hands in satisfaction and chuckled, "All done!"

He looked up at Chief Secretary Xie, tugging at his sleeve with one hand and said, "Chief Secretary Xie, Chief Secretary Xie, you're still the best!"

Xie Changshi smiled and stroked his beard, glancing arrogantly at the others present.

Seeing that none of them could smile, he asked innocently, "Why do you all look so serious? Are you unhappy?"

Qi, the guards, and General Lu glared at him angrily. If it weren't for the fact that the young prince was still there, they would have made Chief Secretary Xie experience what it meant to be rude as a martial artist!

I know you were praised by the young prince, but please don't go too far!

Xie Changshi, who had subtly regained some ground, looked quite pleased with himself, but he knew he couldn't go too far. After making a sarcastic remark, he turned his attention back to Gu Yuzhi.

Oh my, today is another day I've been charmed by the little prince's cuteness!

Gu Yuzhi was completely unaware that the adults had already clashed once. He jumped around in place, laughing and chuckling for quite a while before finally leading everyone back.

He said smugly, "Haha, when these people at the branch wake up tomorrow morning and find themselves in a mass grave, they'll be scared half to death!"

Compared to beating people and dumping them at the gate of the house, Gu Yuzhi preferred to send them to the mass grave in this way, not only because it was scary, but also because, according to Prefect Ke, there were snakes in the mass grave!

These people should just be sleeping soundly when they get bitten by a snake, and their heads will swell up like big pig heads tomorrow!

Gu Yuzhi turned to General Lu: "General Lu, General Lu, if these people transform tomorrow, you must draw them!"

They're heading to Jingxiang tomorrow to find wheat, and it might take them ten days to get back to Quanzhou City. By then, these people might all be better.

With a joke to watch, Gu Yuzhi felt that his earlier happiness had lessened somewhat!

General Lu nodded repeatedly: "Your Highness, please rest assured, I will definitely keep an eye on things for you!"

Although he didn't understand why His Highness would bring up the matter of transformation, he said there was absolutely no problem with it!

Even if these people don't turn into pig heads, we'll beat them until they look like pig heads!

Prefect Ke suddenly stopped and said, "Your Highness, I have something to say!"

Gu Yuzhi blinked: "What? Prefect Ke, tell me quickly!"

They were comrades-in-arms who had worked together to put sacks in place, and their bond was something that no other prefect could match. Prefect Ke naturally had special privileges with him!

Prefect Ke thought for a moment, then said with some difficulty, "I think we should take all these people back to that alley."

Gu Yuzhi stopped skipping abruptly, looked up at him, her cheeks puffed out: "Why? Didn't we go through a lot of trouble to carry these people here?"

It would be too much trouble to send it back into the alley.

It's not just a hassle; what if those stray dogs go there and take over their territory again?

Seeing everyone looking at him, Prefect Ke shrugged slightly, then straightened his back: "I apologize, Your Highness, I only just thought of this myself. I believe that this sack-pouring incident can achieve two goals at once!"

This time is different from the last time; there are a total of five people!

Five soldiers were put in sacks and beaten – this is a shocking thing no matter where it happens!

Prefect Ke said, "I will arrange for people to be sent there to collect chamber pots after dawn tomorrow..."

As soon as the words "night soil disposal" were uttered, Gu Yuzhi felt as if the surroundings were filled with a smell.

He stuck out his tongue and spat several times before finally saying, "And then? And then?"

Prefect Ke glanced at Gu Yuzhi, then quickly shifted his gaze to Chief Clerk Xie and the others. Taking advantage of Gu Yuzhi's inattention, he silently said, "Visiting prostitutes!"

Xie Changshi and the others immediately understood!

Soldiers patronizing prostitutes is a serious matter. Prefect Ke had tried to intervene, but he was powerless to stop it.

Now, Li Ji Trading Company in Quanzhou City has been shut down, and Bai Jiwu, the military supervisor, and others from the Mobei Army have either been escorted to the capital or beheaded and displayed to the public.

It can be said that everything in the whole state is developing in a positive direction!

But Prefect Ke was not satisfied with this; he wanted more, such as eradicating this brothel alley in the entire prefecture!

Seeing the solemn expressions on everyone's faces, Prefect Ke knew they understood his meaning. He took two steps back and bowed to Gu Yuzhi and the others, saying, "Your Highness, I have troubled you."

Gu Yuzhi scratched his head without saying a word, but then he saw that Guard Qi, without saying a word, led the guards forward and carried the five people back up.

Chief Secretary Xie also helped Prefect Ke up by the hand, saying, "Prefect Ke has a heart that cares for the people; how could he be causing trouble!"

Gu Yuzhi looked up and around, only to realize that it seemed the adults all knew what Magistrate Ke hadn't finished saying!

He stomped his foot angrily, thinking to himself, "Here we go again!"

These adults are resorting to age discrimination again!

Gu Yuzhi pouted and complained to Wen Shu, "You adults are really something! You want me to grow up, but you won't tell me anything more!"

Wen and Shu already knew the truth, but seeing the young prince who was only a few years old, they still thought it best to wait a few more years.

It would be better to discuss these things a few years later when the young prince is more mature.

Teacher Shu had no choice but to change the subject, saying, "Oh no! Your Highness, you've been kicked out of the group chat!"
