Zhao Ji was doing two things at once, feeling what he wanted to feel while trying to use his internal energy to heal his wounds.

External injuries are not as easy to heal as internal injuries, but Zhao Ji could clearly feel that under the catalysis of his internal strength, Yueying's external wounds healed faster and recovered very well!

Yueying was feeling uneasy. She was so embarrassed that she even wanted to forcibly cut off the connection with her internal force.

Sensing Yueying's restlessness, Zhao Ji reluctantly withdrew his dishonest internal energy, and with some regret, his palms left Yueying's back.

As soon as the two bodies separated, Yueying immediately turned around and slapped Zhao Ji with a palm.

Zhao Ji’s martial arts skills were not to be underestimated. He leisurely took a step to the side and avoided Yueying’s angry attack.

"Is this how you treat your benefactor?" Zhao Ji said slowly, with an innocent look on his face.

Yueying was so angry that she opened her mouth and said with red eyes: "You damn eunuch! Just heal your wounds, but where is your inner strength going?"

"I must kill you today!"

Yueying had obviously lost her mind and attacked Zhao Ji fiercely with one move after another.

Zhao Ji touched his nose, feeling a little guilty, and just dodged without taking any action.

Fearing that Yueying would make too much noise, Zhao Ji said after exchanging a few moves with Yueying: "How could you think of me with such dirty thoughts? I was healing you, didn't you know that you had blockages?"

Yueying paused slightly, and Zhao Ji immediately took this opportunity to subdue her.

"You have been hiding your identity as a woman for years, and you have been bound with so much cloth every day. Don't think there is no injury there!"

At this moment, Zhao Ji admired his own quick wit.

It just so happened that Yueying had been dressed as a woman for a long time and didn't know any of this, so he was actually fooled by Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji quickly took advantage of this opportunity to pretend to be serious and said, "Look, has the wound below your collarbone healed for the most part?"

Yueying then turned around and checked her wound, which was indeed much better.

She turned around curiously and looked at Zhao Ji: "What kind of internal strength do you have that can heal internal and external injuries?"

Seeing the suspicion flashing in Yueying's eyes, Zhao Ji hurriedly said: "You also know martial arts, so you must have heard of some less popular martial arts in the martial arts world. These are not passed on to outsiders, so I can't tell you!"

Yueying thought about it and felt that Zhao Ji was a eunuch after all, and he probably learned some things for self-protection before entering the palace.

Moreover, he had been monitoring Zhao Ji recently, so if there was any problem, he would be able to discover it, so he did not become more aggressive.

After everything was settled, Yueying said awkwardly: "Thank you very much, thank you for curing these hidden injuries for me... In the future, as long as you don't do anything that endangers the dynasty or the emperor, you can come to me if you need anything!"

"I, Yueying, have made a friend in you!"

Zhao Ji was overjoyed when he heard this, but he still looked indifferent to fame and gain: "I am not working hard to heal you for these reasons, it's just a piece of cake."

Just as Zhao Ji turned to leave the yard, he suddenly turned around and his eyes fell on Yueying: "I believe that Chief Yue is obviously not the kind of person who will not keep his promise."

After saying this, Zhao Ji officially left the yard.

Only Yueying was left standing there like a dumbfounded fool.

The promise was naturally that Yueying said she would wear women's clothes for Zhao Ji to see.

Zhao Ji would never know why Yueying had a headache.

At this moment, the light in Zhao Ji's study was on, and the candlelight reflected on the window, revealing the person standing in the room.

Zhao Ji pushed open the door calmly and found that it was not someone else but a secret guard he had sent out to investigate the refugee incident.

Being able to come over to visit so late at night, I guess he found something useful.

Zhao Ji asked the secret guard to follow him to the bedroom, which was the deepest place in the palace and had excellent sound insulation.

Zhao Ji felt safe talking about things here.

"Since you are here, you must have found out something about the refugee incident. If you have anything to say, please be brief and focus on the main points!"

The secret guard said, "The ten of us brothers have carefully investigated these refugees and found that they actually all come from the same place."

"Hua'an County."

Zhao Ji frowned slightly when he heard this, as he felt that the name Hua'an County was somewhat familiar.

However, he did not interrupt the secret guard's report, but let the secret guard continue.

"These refugees keep saying that they came to the capital to seek shelter because of floods in their hometowns. They say that at least they won't die here!"

"In addition, several of us have checked to see if there is anyone behind these refugees, but we have not found anyone who has had contact with these refugees."

"Hua'an County..." Zhao Ji tapped his fingers on the table, "Flood..."

Suddenly, Zhao Ji had an idea. He calmed down and asked the secret guard to retreat first.

Then he returned to the Silijian late at night and found the old memorials on the archive shelf.

This was sent by the local government two months ago.

This memorial was about the natural disaster flood in Hua'an County. The imperial court took this matter very seriously at the time, and there were also red-ink comments below the memorial.

"The Ministry of Revenue is specially ordered to allocate 500,000 taels of silver and 100 carts of grain, and to order the county magistrate of Hua'an to open the granary to settle the refugees!"

What is written above is the handling policy at that time.

Zhao Ji's eyes fell on the 500,000 pieces of silver and a hundred carts of grain.

Five hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount. Whether it is to resettle the refugees or relocate them to other counties, this money is definitely enough, or even more than enough.

Not to mention the hundreds of carts of food, which were meant to protect the people affected by the natural disaster from starvation.

The court also ordered the county magistrate to open the granary. It was obvious that the court had done everything it could.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be such a large number of refugees coming to the capital again.

And from what the secret guard said just now, these refugees seemed to be saying that they could only survive by escaping from their hometown.

What does this mean?

Zhao Ji tapped his hands lightly on the table, his eyes constantly scanning the red seal, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I'm afraid these 500,000 silver coins have gone down the drain, right?"

Zhao Ji did not intend to turn a blind eye to this matter.

One reason is that such a large number of refugees gathered in the royal capital, even though the secret guards have not found any cases related to these refugees.

However, if they are taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives, these refugees may not only lose their lives but also be smeared.

Another reason is that this is an opportunity for Zhao Ji!

It is an opportunity to show his abilities as the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department to the Emperor, and it is also an opportunity to show his loyalty to the Emperor!

Opportunity cannot be missed!
