When the emperor and Zhao Ji finally returned to a safe place, the emperor finally let go of the worry that had been hanging in his heart.

At the same time, the emperor was very angry.

"So there is such a thing happening so close to the capital?"

"These governors think I am a fool, so they are deceiving me. Are all the subsidies given to them by the court embezzled by them?"

"If I hadn't come out this time, I'm afraid I would still be seeing singing and dancing?"

The emperor's series of questions were enough to show that he was very angry. After all, the emperor really did hard labor for two days without any help.

Zhao Ji saw that the emperor was so furious, but his face remained calm. However, he still felt a little amused in his heart.

Mainly because I remembered that the emperor had eaten rotten buns and was swinging a sledgehammer. This scene was really funny.

"When will my troops arrive? When they come, arrest this governor and investigate him thoroughly!"

After this difficult experience, the emperor became more careful and strategic than before.

For example, before, the emperor would never think of waiting for his army to arrive. He would definitely shout for the person to be arrested on the spot, and would not let the army investigate.

Zhao Ji thought to himself: "Sure enough, he should be allowed to suffer first, otherwise he won't be able to grow up!"

The chief guard said, "According to the emperor's previous itinerary, the main force should arrive in two days. According to our original itinerary, your majesty should have arrived at the next destination by now..."

The last part was a little obscure, but the emperor and Zhao Ji could hear it.

If the emperor and Zhao Ji had not been trapped in the mine for the past few days, they would probably have already set off for the next place.

It was because the emperor understood that he became even more angry. If it weren't for this mess, he wouldn't have been delayed here for so long. He felt that he had lost out just thinking about it.

"Wait until the main force arrives here, and we'll capture whoever needs to be captured!" the emperor made the final decision.

Zhao Ji frowned and stood up to the emperor and said, "I still suggest that the emperor find a reason to detain the man now, because if you wait for two more days, I'm afraid the governor will always get some gossip, and it will be bad if he slips away!"

After going through all these hardships together, the emperor no longer had as much hostility towards Zhao Ji as before. Now he has calmed down and is willing to listen to Zhao Ji's suggestions.

"Well, Captain Guard, if that's the case, find a reason to arrest him!"

"This is my badge. Seeing the badge is like seeing me. If he doesn't kneel down and admit his fault after seeing the badge, you can use this as an excuse to detain him!"

The emperor gave instructions with his eyes slightly narrowed.

The captain of the guards took the golden medal from the emperor's hand and turned away without saying a word.

You know, the captain of the guards was already annoyed with the governor when he was confronting the governor's minions. Now that he has this opportunity, he will definitely not show mercy.

At the same time, the large force was indeed heading this way just as planned.

The governor was indeed a little confused when he saw the message sent by the carrier pigeon.

The gossip he had received was that the Emperor seemed to be near the town.

On the other hand, I just received a rumor that the emperor's large army will arrive in two days.

It is difficult to tell whether these two pieces of news are true or false, and most importantly, the above pieces of news are completely inconsistent.

For a moment, the governor didn't know who to believe.

"No matter what the news is, inform your subordinates to be honest recently and don't let them find any problems. Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel!"

The governor narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke to his men.

Although the governor looked kind and his tone was not particularly fierce when he said this, the strange thing was that after hearing his words, the people below shuddered at the same time.

Soon the mine also received the relevant news, and the miners' meals were improved that day. Everyone had white flour and steamed buns, and for the first time, minced meat appeared in the cabbage stewed with vermicelli.

It was even more outrageous the next day, as there was an extra chicken drumstick in everyone's bowl.

The new miners thought that the higher-ups had changed their attitude. As for the older ones, their expressions were still as numb as ever, because they had long known that they would never be able to get out again. As for the chicken legs and extra meals, they were nothing more than some kind of inspection from above.

At the same time, the supervisors were much more relaxed during this period. They did not beat or scold them as before, and they had to work day and night.

At the same time, many secret personnel were added to the mine. These were all the governor's spies, who were stationed in the mine by the governor in case of emergency.

However, after making so many preparations, when he returned to his house at night, he suddenly found a man in black appearing in his room.

This person was none other than the Emperor's chief guard. Moreover, the chief guard did not have much communication with the Governor. He intended to knock the Governor unconscious right away.

Unfortunately, the governor also had some thugs in his own house, and when he realized something was wrong, he immediately started shouting loudly.

Soon, several strong men rushed in, but the captain of the guards did not come alone.

Soon the two groups started fighting. The governor thought something was wrong and wanted to leave secretly, but when he turned around he saw someone familiar.

"Governor, I hope you are well. I wanted to have a good talk with you just now, but I didn't expect you to be so panicked. In this case, I can only take you away and settle you down first!"

The captain of the guards smiled faintly, knocked the governor unconscious with his hand, and took him away in a few seconds.

Without a leader, the thugs soon lost their fighting spirit. Originally, they wanted to retreat and spread the news that the governor had been taken away.

But they were soon subdued, knocked unconscious one by one by the emperor's guards and taken away.

The next day, the wealthy businessman went to the governor's house to discuss some matters.

When they arrived at the governor's house to inquire, they found that the governor had disappeared.

This time, the situation has really exploded.

You have to know that the governor holds a lot of power in the entire town. Once he disappears, some things will be difficult to settle.

Some people in the town suddenly began to panic.

You have to know that the governor has the leverage over many people in his hands. If the governor spreads all these things, many people in this town will be thrown into jail.

It's funny to say, everyone obviously gathered together for profit, but at this time everyone has no trust in each other, people's hearts are unpredictable, and no one dares to relax at this time.

At this time, the governor had already woken up under the eyes of Zhao Ji and the emperor.
