Chapter 152 Integrity

"Could it be that the man is fake?"

The prefect walked back and forth in the room, feeling even more uneasy.

It was a pity that he was imprisoned and his people were not there, otherwise they could have discussed it.

"That's impossible."

"Who dares to pretend to be a court official these days?"

Seeing that the man hadn't figured it out, the woman hurriedly said,

"Sir, could it be that the court is worried about the people here, so they sent people here as fast as possible?"

"Think about it, the emperor is..." The

woman paused. In fact, the emperor has a good reputation and the people love him very much.

"Impossible. Have you forgotten the natural disasters in the past?"

In fact, there was one here six years ago.

But that time it was a flood, and it was extremely large.

The crops were all flooded. After the court knew about it, it also sent people to provide relief. He was a natural disaster, but he fooled himself and made a lot of money.

But this time...

that man has no moral principles! Not

only did he come without saying anything, but he also acted secretly.

He hadn't prepared anything yet, but they destroyed his lair.

He couldn't even send a letter to the person behind him!

"What should we do now?"

"And our son..."

The woman was more worried about her son, who was also an official in a small county town below. He

has only been working for two years, so

he won't be found out, right? "Don't worry, stay calm, he has only been here for a day, he won't know anything."

"Besides, I'm not corrupt."

"They say to catch an adulterer, catch both, catch a thief, and take the dirty. Even if he wants to convict me, he needs a reason, right? He also needs evidence."

The prefect smiled proudly. He had hidden everything, so he was not afraid of being discovered!

"Master, you are right. Then tomorrow..."

"If anyone asks you, don't say anything." The prefect's face turned cold and warned, "Do you understand?"

The woman nodded hurriedly and said nothing. She must not make things worse.

"Do you think the emperor is free? He suddenly sent someone here..."

The woman complained, and the prefect sighed:

"Let's talk about it tomorrow, but how can we sleep here? There is not even a bed."

...

Prince Yi naturally didn't know what was going on here.

He slept very deeply all day.

Before dawn the next day, he woke up habitually!

The little girl lay on him, lying on her back, not sleeping at all.

Prince Yi frowned. This little girl...

I will talk to Liu Jiaojiao when I go back and ask her to correct the little girl's sleeping posture.

What does this look like?

Carefully picking up Yuan Baobao and putting her on the pillow, Prince Yi quietly got up.

The little girl smacked her lips, and no one knew what she was eating in her dream.

The corners of her mouth curled up. It was the first time that Prince Yi saw such an adorable daughter, and his heart softened.

Yuan Baobao had a delicate appearance, and most of her features resembled Prince Yi.

"Master."

Liu Quan heard the commotion, pushed the door open and came in to help Prince Yi wash up!

"Master, the prefect has been caught, do you want to see him now?"

Prince Yi's eyes turned cold: "Yes!"

"But we didn't find much silver in his house, and there wasn't much food either."

"I asked the yamen runners below, and they said that the prefect didn't open a granary in the city, and neither did his wife's family."

Liu Quan reported the news he had heard.

Prince Yi curled his lips: "You mean, this prefect is a good official?"

Liu Quan hurriedly said: "Master, this old servant does not mean that, but his wife's sister's family did open two grain stores."

Prince Yi... It's almost the same, just a round trip.

"Go meet him."

Prince Yi wanted to hear his cunning excuse!

Even if he is not corrupt, but the people below are so corrupt, he can't deny the blame.

Yuan Baobao turned over, and her stomach growled before she woke up.

Prince Yi turned his head and looked at his daughter who was sleeping soundly, and felt very distressed:

"Forget it, let them cook some food first, and go after eating."

Yuan Baobao was so hungry that she should wake up after the meal.

Sure enough, Yuan Baobao was aroused by the smell of rice.

After wiping her eyes, she was about to get out of bed in a daze!

"Awake?"

After taking care of Yuan Baobao for several days, Prince Yi got used to it.

The little girl had to pee first when she got up, then wash her face and comb her hair.

After constant practice, Prince Yi's hairstyle was already quite decent.

Although it was not as beautiful as Liu Jiaojiao's, at least Yuan Baobao no longer complained.

...

The prefect finally met the officials from the capital.

When he saw that the visitor was bringing a child, he felt a little magical.

An official from the capital, bringing a child?

Are you kidding? Does the emperor know?

Why send such a person? To look after the child?

"My lord, I don't know who you are?"

Without seeing his own people, the current prefect still didn't know yesterday's news.

"Haha, Hu Dui, you're pretty good."

Prince Yi sneered, looking at Hu Dui with cold eyes.

"Sir, may I ask who you are?"

The prefect was worried. This man was too young to be a high-ranking official.

He was holding a child, which made him even less likely. Could he be a liar?

He hated that he was in his hands now. Even if he knew that the other party was a liar, he could do nothing about it.

Damn it, after he got out...

"Where is the food in the mansion?"

Prince Yi asked directly without caring about what the man was planning.

"Sir, I have always been honest. Where can I get food?"

"Now the people outside can't eat enough. I can only eat one meal a day. There is almost no food left. I..."

Seeing that he was still pretending to be an honest official, Prince Yi sneered, suddenly stepped forward, raised his foot and hit him hard in the stomach.

Ah...

With a cry of pain, the poor prefect flew out.

His woman was shocked and took two steps back unconsciously.

After following the prefect for so many years, this was the first time she saw her man being beaten!

"You...you guys..."

The woman trembled, looking at the prefect who was kicked and fell to the wall.

"Master, we..." The woman's eyes were full of worry.

[Hey, it seems that the couple still have some feelings. ]

[But this prefect is much smarter than Lord Zhu, and he knows how to do a good job on the surface. ]

[He can wipe his mouth clean after being so greedy, he is really thoughtful. ]

[Of course there is food, there is a secret room in his bedroom. ]

[The silver and food are hidden underground. ]

Prince Yi's eyes moved, and Liu Quan had already taken people out to look for it.

Knowing that it is in the bedroom, they can find the secret room even if they dig three feet underground.

The prefect was nearly knocked unconscious by the fall, feeling dizzy.

He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Just when he was in a daze, he was startled by a voice in his head.

It was a child's.

However, this was not the point, the point was... the meaning of the words.

There was a mechanism in his bedroom, which was extremely secret.

Even his wife didn't know about it.

There was a secret room downstairs, and there was silver in it.

He was sure that no one had told anyone about this.

How did the child know this?

"I..."
