Chapter 246 The Ninth Princess is truly a goddess!

She was startled and the bun in her hand fell to the ground.

She turned around in panic and found that it was the customer who bought buns earlier.

"Don't eat dirty buns, you will get sick. This is for you." Qi Shaoyu handed the bun to her.

Song Wan took two steps back cautiously.

Qi Shaoyu felt helpless, he was just running errands for his father, and happened to see the little girl was so hungry that she was fighting with wild cats for food. He couldn't bear it, so he bought two more for her, but he didn't expect her to be so alert.

"I just bought this. I haven't eaten it before." Qi Shaoyu bent down, put the bun on the ground, and turned to leave.

At this moment, a timid question suddenly came from behind.

"Are you from the capital?"

Song Wan decided to take a gamble.

Although the court now requires the people to speak Daxia official language, there are still some differences in how they speak it. The people in Kaiyang County all speak with an accent, but the young man in front of him speaks very standardly.

In addition, when the boy bought the buns, he said that he was buying them for his parents, so a glimmer of hope arose in her heart.

"Yeah, how did you know?" Qi Shaoyu turned around and looked at her.

"Do you know Lord Qi?" Song Wan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes." Qi Shaoyu nodded.

That's his biological father, how could he not know him?

"Then do you think he is a good official?" Song Wan looked at him eagerly.

Hearing this slightly silly question, Qi Shaoyu laughed.

"Of course he is."

Hearing this, Song Wan couldn't help but step forward and grab his wrist.

"Big brother, can you take me to see Master Qi?"

"What do you want from him?" Qi Shaoyu did not push her hand away.

"I have to meet him before I can tell you." Song Wan hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say it now.

"If you don't tell me, I won't take you to see him." Qi Shaoyu raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

He couldn't just pick up a kid from the street and bring him back to see his father, what if the kid was an assassin?

Don't underestimate today's children.

After all, those officials in the court were beaten in the face because they underestimated the Ninth Princess.

Song Wan suddenly became anxious.

Can this person be trusted?

He gave me buns, so he must be a good person, right?

"I'll finish this bun. If you don't tell me, I'll leave." Qi Shaoyu took out a bun.

One bite, two bites, three bites.

The fist-sized buns were eaten up.

Song Wan was stunned.

Qi Shaoyu did what he said and turned around and left.

"I said." Song Wan blurted out.

"Well, go ahead and talk. I'm all ears." Qi Shaoyu turned around and waited for her to speak.

Song Wan told her elder brother about his discovery of someone embezzling disaster relief funds, and also revealed everything about Xiao Liuzi, Wu Yang, and that "Mr. Zhou".

Qi Shaoyu's expression suddenly became serious.

"Come with me." He grabbed Song Wan's collar.

"Wait." Song Wan struggled to pick up the buns on the ground, carefully separated the clean buns from the dirty buns that Qi Shaoyu gave her, and then followed.

She ate a bun and then stopped.

"Are you full?" Qi Shaoyu asked doubtfully.

"The rest is for mother to eat." Song Wan replied in a low voice.

Qi Shaoyu felt sad when he saw her pitiful appearance.

"Just eat as much as you want, I'll buy you more later." He sighed.

After all, there is nothing delicious in the government office.

They came to provide disaster relief. The government officials also had very little food, so they ate whatever the disaster victims ate.

He couldn't stand the food today, so he ran out to buy meat buns to satisfy his hunger. Of course, he didn't forget to bring a few for his father as well.

"No need." Song Wan shook her head.

"Brother once said, no merit, no reward."

The big brother gave her two buns, and she picked up two more buns, which made her feel very lucky.

"Oh, you still know that there is no reward without merit." Qi Shaoyu joked.

"Yes, my elder brother taught me to read a little." Song Wan nodded.

"It's good for women to be able to read and write. They can take the college entrance examination and become officials." Qi Shaoyu said casually.

Song Wan's eyes lit up.

Can women also be officials?

She carefully asked Qi Shaoyu about the matter of women serving as officials.

Qi Shaoyu did not look down on her. Instead, he told her all the relevant regulations of the court.

Song Wan was filled with passion when she heard this.

She secretly made a decision in her heart that she could not die, she had to live, she wanted to take the college entrance examination and become an official!

We cannot allow these corrupt officials to be in power, she must be a good official.

At this time, Qi Shaoyu didn't know that many years later, the little girl in front of him would stand in the court with a smile on her face and say to him: Big brother, long time no see.

…

Qi Shaoyu brought the man back to the government office and reported the matter to his father.

When Qi Lian heard this, he became furious.

There is such a thing!

Zhang Zhongming, who came along for the inspection, also changed his expression.

"Sir, I don't know about this!"

"Check, check immediately." Qi Lian pursed his lips, looking very angry.

It seems that his decision to conduct a secret visit was a correct one. He came quietly and was able to find out a lot of things.

He even deliberately asked his youngest son to come along, hoping to use his young age to deceive others and allow him to blend in with the people and inquire about the disaster.

I didn't expect that he actually discovered the problem.

Qi Lian was very pleased that his son had made great progress.

When Song Wan saw that the adults were willing to investigate the matter, she was so happy that she shed tears.

My brother finally has a place to tell his grievances!

"Don't cry. Come on, come on, it's so dirty. I'll take you to wash your face." Qi Shaoyu looked at her dirty face from crying and couldn't help but pull her out.

Song Wan washed her face a little embarrassedly, looked at him, and said hesitantly: "Big brother, can I go home now? My mother is still waiting for me. If I don't go back, she will be worried."

Qi Shaoyu looked down at the pair of torn straw sandals on her feet, then looked at the sky that was about to get dark.

If we let her go back like this, the wolves on the road will eat her.

"What's your mother's name and where is she? I'll send someone to pick her up."

Song Wan obediently told the address.

"Okay, just live here peacefully." Qi Shaoyu wrote down the address and asked someone to pick up Dong Chunlan.

Qi Lian's men acted quickly and all the officials in Kaiyang County were arrested.

Just as he was about to interrogate them one by one, a letter came from the capital saying that the Ninth Princess had predicted that an official named Zhou Qi had taken the lead in embezzling disaster relief funds, and that Lord Zhang was innocent.

Qi Lian read the letter and was convinced by Lu Li.

The Ninth Princess is truly a goddess!

When Zhang Zhongming saw the letter, he burst into tears of gratitude. The Ninth Princess would never wrongly accuse any good person.

He is innocent.

With Lu Li's prediction, the two of them had a direction for the interrogation and started directly with Zhou Qi.

Xiao Liuzi and Wu Yang were also caught.

Several of them could not withstand the severe torture and soon confessed everything.
