Chapter 198 Miss Yun Zhao is truly a divine being!
"Zhaozhao!"
Not knowing what her daughter was planning to do, Xu Qingyi subconsciously took a few steps after her.
"Don't worry, Aunt Xu, I'll go and keep an eye on her!"
Wei Jingchen stopped the man, and then went out with Tiger to find Yun Zhao.
Because it was a government office, Liang Yonghua only stood outside the door and did not go in.
"Miss Yun Zhao."
Upon seeing that it was him coming in person, Yun Zhao quickly went to greet him.
"Uncle Liang! Is there any news about the matter Zhaozhao asked you to do?"
"Thanks to Miss Yunzhao's good fortune, the news that came back is very likely true."
They didn't dare delay and immediately reported back, asking if we should just go and rob them?
Liang Yonghua was blunt, saying "rob" as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Yes, yes, but we need to prepare a few more things. Come in quickly, Lord Ding is inside!"
Yun Zhao pulled him inside. When Wei Jingchen came out, he heard them talking about robbing something. He looked up and saw her pulling him inside.
The group returned to the house, where everyone was on their side. Yun Zhao immediately shouted, "We've found the disaster relief funds and grain!"
"really?!"
Ding Yan jumped up.
Liang Yonghua clasped his hands in a fist salute to the crowd: "I am Liang Yonghua from Zhenyuan Escort Agency."
Because the escort agency has some connections in the area, Miss Yun Zhao asked us to help her investigate.
The possible destinations for disaster relief funds and grain were discussed in a letter from Yuezhou this morning.
It is said that in the past few days, carriages and horses have frequently arrived at the prefectural government office in Yuezhou, claiming to be relatives delivering spring gifts.
But our men have seen that the wheel tracks are extremely deep, and that the boxes and trunks were brought into the mansion afterward.
The prefect did not even open the so-called gift list, and the quantity matched the amount of lost disaster relief funds and grain.
Therefore, we boldly speculate that the missing disaster relief funds and grain were very likely this so-called gift list.
"Yuezhou...who is the current prefect of Yuezhou?"
Ding Yan was not familiar with the local officials.
Yun Xuan's expression was not good. He said in a deep voice, "The official who took office in Yuezhou last year was Zhuang Shuyang, a disciple of Luo Jijiu."
"A disciple of the Imperial Academy Master Luo?"
Not only Ding Yan, but even Wei Mingyu was taken aback.
Although Luo Jijiu was appointed to the Imperial Academy, not just anyone could become his student.
Luo Zicheng's disciples have always been renowned throughout the land for their integrity and impartiality.
But now, Zhuang Shuyang has only just climbed to the position of prefect, and he has already become involved in embezzling disaster relief funds and grain!
This is utterly disgraceful to the Luo family!
Seeing their reaction, Liang Yonghua realized that this person was probably an acquaintance.
After thinking for a moment, Liang Yonghua offered them a way out.
"This matter has not yet been confirmed. Why don't we send our people in first to investigate and confirm that it is relief funds and grain, before deciding how to handle it?"
"No, we can wait, but the people cannot."
Yunxuan's expression was solemn, regretting that he could not stand up immediately and personally go to Yuezhou to bring back the disaster relief funds and grain!
"In that case, I'll go myself..."
Before Ding Yan could finish speaking, Wei Mingyu interrupted him, which was unusual for him.
"No, Lord Ding, we are all criminals. If it weren't for you, Su City would be in such dire straits."
This would likely cause immediate chaos, especially since His Majesty summoned you here.
This is evidence used to investigate the crimes of the Governor-General of Jiangnan. If you go to Yuezhou now,
Before the investigation is even complete, someone will likely report it to His Majesty on charges of dereliction of duty!
While everyone was still thinking about how to investigate, Yun Zhao excitedly raised his hand.
"Let me go!"
Suddenly, everyone's eyes were drawn to her.
"I'm just a child, so I'm not particularly noticeable, and the people of Yuezhou don't know me."
We pretended to be visiting relatives and sneaked into Yuezhou. With Huahua around, we could avoid danger in time!
"When we sneak into the government office and find the disaster relief funds and grain, we can immediately detain the prefect of Yuezhou!"
Even if they were discovered, and the tiger came down the mountain, no one would suspect that Ding Yan had sent people to investigate.
This is the best approach at present.
No one can refute that.
Wei Jingchen, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.
"How about this, Uncle Lu and his son stay here to protect everyone, and Zhaozhao and I..."
I will accompany the members of the Zhenyuan Escort Agency to Yuezhou to investigate the truth. If it is true...
With the镖局's fast horses, they could travel between Yuezhou and Suzhou in half a day. By then,
Lord Ding will then bring his men to transport the silver and grain back, so that we can have an explanation to give to His Majesty.”
Seeing that Wei Jingchen's suggestion was the best, no one could think of any other better way.
Xu Qingyi quickly instructed Zhichun and the others to pack their bags, making two sets, and preparing some dry food and water bags.
There must still be spies inside the city, so they dare not go out during the day.
Night falls.
Liang Yonghua put away the planned route map and led over two horses.
"It's time to set off."
Xu Qingyi hung the prepared luggage on her daughter's back.
Yun Zhao had a small pocket hanging in front and a backpack on his back, making him look quite bulky.
"Mother... it's so hard for Zhaozhao to walk like this! It's inconvenient for her to walk!"
She took two steps, but the weight behind her caused her to lose her balance and almost fall backward, landing flat on her back!
Wei Jingchen reacted quickly, grabbing the bag and dragging her back.
"Ouch! You scared me!"
Yun Zhao patted his chest, still feeling a bit shaken.
"This...it seems Mother packed too much. How about we take out a couple of pieces of clothing?"
Xu Qingyi smiled somewhat awkwardly.
"Let me carry Zhaozhao. With Huahua here, even if she gets lost, Huahua can bring her back to me. Don't worry, Aunt Xu!"
Wei Jingchen unloaded his luggage, tossed it behind him, and carried it on his back.
"Yes, leave it to Jingchen, don't worry!"
Bai Ling offered words of comfort.
"Then I'll leave it to you. You can go now, Uncle Liang is still waiting for you!"
Xu Qingyi gently rubbed her daughter's head and took two steps back.
Yun Zhao climbed onto the tiger's back and waved to the people behind him.
"Mother, Father, don't worry, Zhao Zhao will definitely complete the mission!"
Then, the tiger carried her on its back and disappeared into the night following Liang Yonghua.
Under the cover of night, Yun Zhao and his group left the city overnight.
Outside the city, the members of Zhenyuan Escort Agency were already waiting there.
Seeing Yun Zhao and Wei Jingchen come out, everyone was taken aback at first, then spurred their horses forward to greet them.
"Boss, are we leaving?"
"Let's go straight there, I'll tell you along the way!"
They needed to travel under the cover of night and reach Yuezhou as soon as possible.
Without pausing for a moment, Liang Yonghua passed them and sped off.
The group followed closely behind, heading straight towards Yuezhou.
The tiger's stamina was poor, but the fruits in Yun Zhao's space replenished its energy.
It drinks the spiritual spring water every day, making it incredibly strong.
Even though I was following at the back of the group, I managed to stay with them the whole way.
"Miss Yun Zhao is truly amazing! At such a young age, she possesses superb medical skills and can even tame tigers."
The fact that her pet tiger could keep up with the镖局's horses the entire way without falling behind is truly unheard of!
"Haven't you noticed? Animals are usually afraid of wild beasts, but look at the tiger running alongside the horse caravan, the horses don't seem afraid at all..."
"My goodness, you must say, Miss Yun Zhao is truly a divine being!"
The members of the escort team, riding their horses, were quite surprised.
Meanwhile, in Suzhou.
Lu Xun returned to the inn from outside the city under the cover of night, only to learn of the incident that had occurred during the day.
He quickly arrived at the government office and dragged Lu Li to the rooftop.
