Lin Qing's nonsensical behavior actually made the prefect less wary!

Lin Bai and Lin Mo quickly grabbed some pastries and started feasting!

Ji Wenxuan turned around and looked at the prefect with some embarrassment!

"Sir, I'm so sorry to have made you laugh. These people are just ordinary refugees who saved my life on the road!"

"And she even gave me all the little food she had at home, so I recognized this little girl as my sworn sister, and the people around her are all her family!"

"I promised them that they would eat and drink well in the future, but I have not kept my promise!"

"These days, when they see something good, they can't resist it!"

"I'm so sorry!"

The prefect burst into laughter!

"It's nothing! I just wanted to see your badge!"

"You won't mind, will you?"

Ji Wenxuan quickly took out the waist token from his pocket and handed it over with both hands!

But before he could reach the prefect's side, he was stopped by a guard!

"Sir, please hand over your identification token!"

Ji Wenxuan was stopped, looking completely bewildered!

But he still cooperated by handing over the waist tag in his hand!

After the guard took it, he carefully checked it over and over again to make sure there were no problems and no hidden poison before handing the waist token to the prefect!

After taking it, he examined it carefully and compared it with the description of the physical features written on it, confirming that the person in front of him was the legendary eldest son!

His smile deepened! He had a plan in mind!

"I wonder what brings Brother Ji here to see me?"

"Did you come here to seek refuge with me? Or do you have some other plans? Didn't you say you had something important to tell me?"

"What exactly happened? Tell me!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Wenxuan's face immediately showed a pained expression!

"My lord, do you know that Prince Shun is a beast!"

“He took my territory! My mother also lost her life in that war; she couldn’t escape!”

"He followed me closely the whole way here, committing arson, murder, looting, and all sorts of atrocities!"

"He blocked my way back to Kyoto!"

"And as far as I know, he's only a day's journey from here!"

"I came here hoping to discuss this with you!"

The governor never expected that his mother would also lose her life in that battle. Judging from the pained expression on his face, he probably wasn't faking it. I just don't know why he came to find him!

Seeing that the prefect didn't respond, Ji Wenxuan had no choice but to continue speaking!

"My lord, I have a plan that can guarantee you will get through this crisis."

"I only hope that you can send a message to my father, who is far away in Kyoto!"

The prefect's eyes lit up slightly!

"Oh! Brother Ji, what brilliant plan do you have? Tell me about it!"

"By the way, who is my father?"

Ji Wenxuan immediately cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards Kyoto!

"My father is the Minister of Personnel, Ji Kangyuan!"

The prefect, though he already knew, still pretended to be surprised!

These words greatly surprised Lin Ru and the others!

They never expected that Ji Wenxuan's father was the Minister of Personnel!

This is definitely a high-ranking official!

Seeing their surprised expressions, Ji Wenxuan continued, "My father sent me from the capital to this county to serve as magistrate, intending to train me. I never expected something like this to happen!"

"When I left home, both my father and the emperor gave me a carrier pigeon, but I lost it during my escape!"

"I know you must have a carrier pigeon here, sent by the Emperor, so that you can send a message to the capital for help in such a critical moment!"

"Although the Marquis of Zhenxi is now in charge of the capital!"

"But we are quite familiar with each other. If you write to ask for help, I believe that the people in Kyoto will not stand idly by!"

"Now the Prince of Shun has sent most of his troops to Mianzhou!"

"It is precisely when his rear is vulnerable that if the capital or other princes can circle around to his rear and occupy his territory, Prince Shun will definitely not continue to advance, but will return to protect his own territory!"

"That way, the crisis can be resolved!"

"You don't need to worry, the Marquis of Zhenxi will pretend he didn't see our plea for help from the capital!"

"As long as you specify this in your letter, I will come to you for help!"

"I believe that even if the Marquis of Zhenxi pretends not to see it, my father will do everything in his power to save me!"

"That way you can rest and recharge for a while!"

The prefect was originally a carefree and irresponsible man, and he never expected that a young master like him could come up with any good ideas. But now that he heard this, it seemed that it could indeed solve his urgent problem. His spies had already seen that the Prince of Shun's troops would arrive in his territory in another day!

Yes, he doesn't care about the common people, but if they take over his territory, he'll probably be demoted when he goes to serve that person later!

And he did indeed have a carrier pigeon given to him by the emperor!

These carrier pigeons were raised from a young age in the imperial city, and then ten were distributed to each official!

When something important happens, you can release the carrier pigeon in your hand, and the pigeon will carry the message on its leg back to its nest!

Meanwhile, various prefectures in Kyoto also breed homing pigeons for unforeseen circumstances!

And he also has that person's carrier pigeon!

If we let him send troops out quickly, while the Shun King's main force is here, we can seize his territory!

This can also be considered a way to expand territory!

If they really succeed, they will definitely look at them with new respect!

So he readily agreed!

He also instructed his servants to arrange accommodations for Ji Wenxuan and the others!

And this residence is located in the prefect's mansion!

When Ji Wenxuan heard that he had agreed, he was extremely grateful!

"Governor, thank you so much! You even arranged accommodations for us!"

"I want Prince Shun to taste what I felt back then!"

The prefect was in a hurry to deliver the message, so he just smiled and gave a perfunctory reply!

After Ji Wenxuan and the others were led to their lodgings and given plenty of food, they immediately gathered together!

They called it "eating together!"

They were actually discussing the next steps!

"Miss Lin! Today..."

Ji Wenxuan was just about to ask if he wanted to sneak into the prefect's mansion tonight?

Then I saw Lin Ru make a shushing gesture!

She pointed outside again!

Only then did these people realize that the governor had not completely trusted them and that many people were still monitoring them from the outside!

Using her sleeve as a demonstration, Lin Ru took out several sheets of paper from her spatial storage!

Then she took out the homemade eyebrow pencil she usually uses to draw thick eyebrows!

Her eyebrows were made from soot from the bottom of a pot, which is why they were so dark!

They then ate while using this, and Mei Dai wrote on paper to communicate!
