On the shore, Shen Siwei listened to his subordinates' reports with his hands behind his back.
"Those people have reached shore safely."
"All of Ye Kang's gang members have been captured. Three of our men were killed and five were injured."
"The fire in the restaurant was an accident. The commander of the Water Dragon Office was in the boat. When the Water Dragon Office heard that the fire was slow to be dealt with, another group of people secretly took the deputy commander to dispatch troops to put out the fire."
"The group in the dark showed us the Imperial Dragon Order. They belong to the same faction as the ones hiding underwater. The one the Imperial Dragon Guards are protecting is the woman on the boat."
"The Royal Dragon Guards handed over all the information about Ye Kang and his relatives' rampages to us, which is consistent with what we have investigated, but they did not want us to inquire about their movements."
"Well, let's go back." Chen Siwei recalled the woman who passed by him in the lake. The light was too dim and he couldn't see what she looked like. He could only vaguely meet her eyes.
When observing from the corner of the lake, only the back can be vaguely seen.
Sui Zhao returned home with his parents, washed up and went to bed, and went for an outing with them the next day.
Outside the city, peach blossoms are in full bloom, the ground is lush and green, and the flowers are fragrant and the birds are singing.
After walking for half a day, his legs and feet were tired, so he sat down in the pavilion and chatted with other women who came to the lake for an outing.
A woman asked, "Are those coming with you your brother and his wife? They seem very affectionate."
"No, they are my parents." Sui Zhao smiled with his eyes curved, "Don't you find that I look a bit like them?"
"Ah, so they are your parents? They don't look old enough to be parents. How old are you?"
Wanjiezhu was eating the pastries carefully behind Sui Zhao.
After taking its pills, I feel so good every day. How can I not be young?
The dog host is very capable, and he abdicated simply because he felt that there were too many things to do.
"Seventeen."
"I'm one year older than you and I'm getting married next month."
During the reign of the Supreme Emperor, the marriage age for both men and women was set at 18.
"Congratulations, sister."
The sound of horse hooves could be heard, and then the area within fifteen feet of the pavilion was surrounded. A man in black clothes with silver patterns drove his horse into the encirclement, his black eyes calm and cold.
The person beside him said, "I'm sorry to disturb you all. We are trying to catch the criminal. Please cooperate."
Seeing that their faces were cold and hard and seemed to carry murderous intent, the people present dared not say anything and remained silent.
Sui Zhao looked at them curiously, especially the man on the tall horse.
Even his horse is taller than the person next to him, and his temperament is outstanding. He is worthy of being the commander of the Mingcha Division.
After returning home last night, Huai Xu showed her a portrait of the current commander of the Mingcha Division, Shen Siwei, so she could recognize him.
Chen Siwei noticed her gaze and looked over. She smiled at him calmly, lowered her head to drink tea, and listened to the noise made by the people from the Mingcha Division.
He then withdrew his gaze.
He was quite bold, and others either lowered their heads or watched secretly.
Chen Siwei's gaze fell on Yan Tinglan and Zhu Fuli, who were a little further away. His gaze stayed for a moment and he found that the little girl's face was somewhat similar to theirs.
Soon, a middle-aged man was escorted out from the crowd, tied up on the back of a horse, and Mingcha Si rode away.
"I'm so scared. Who is he? I've never seen such a young official before."
"I don't know, maybe he is from the capital, his manners are very outstanding."
"The situation in Yangzhou has changed. The governor is going to be replaced. I hope a good official will come. Don't pretend to be good again. After a long time, your true colors will be exposed."
Sui Zhao listened for a while, said goodbye to the woman next to him who was chatting well, and walked towards his parents.
"I'm hungry."
"Then let's go back and have some snacks in the carriage." Zhu Fuli pulled Yan Tinglan towards the carriage, "I'm hungry too."
After returning home and finishing his meal, Shuang Xu told Sui Zhao and others the news he had heard.
"The trial is over. The evidence is solid and the amount of corruption is huge. Ye Kang and others have been taken to the capital. Before the new governor takes office, the Mingchasi will be stationed in Yangzhou to handle state affairs."
Sui Zhao turned around and asked, "How many days will we stay in Yangzhou?"
Yan Tinglan didn't reply and looked at Zhu Fuli.
