Chapter 41 Thunderous Means
Yun Fu witnessed with her own eyes how Shen Shi picked up two cat thieves who were about to steal the cat and flew away, one in each hand.
If the weather wasn't too hot, Yun Fu really wanted to go and see what kind of person the Nanling prefect was like and how he raised such a simple and innocent son.
There is a kind of natural cuteness that is stupid to the core.
After watching Shen Shi deal with the cat thief, Yun Fu found the biggest and reddest peach on the peach tree, and pulled it hard, breaking it off with the branches, leaves and peach, and then carried it into the house with great effort.
Wei Rong, who had just finished bathing, walked out of the side room and saw Ah Fu dragging a peach branch into the house with a puff of his mouth.
When I walked over, I saw a huge peach stuck to the branches.
Wei Rong reached out and lifted the peach that was stuck in the threshold.
When Yun Fu saw the person coming, her eyes lit up. She looked up and saw a handsome man who was as beautiful as a lotus flower emerging from clear water.
Wei Rong had long hair that was not yet dry and was casually draped over his shoulders. He was wearing a purple silk robe.
The robe was casually tied at the waist, revealing a large area of full chest muscles with distinct textures, and water droplets were about to fall off.
Some water droplets fell from the hair and slid down the collarbone into the neckline.
Wei Rong seemed unaware of how inappropriate his current appearance was. He bent down, and his already open collar was like a blooming flower, revealing the scenery inside.
Yun Fu's eyes widened and her cat pupils stood up as she looked at the spring scenery under the man's clothes.
The two pink spots are particularly conspicuous on the cold white chest.
At this time, Wei Rong was simply a monster in the forest with the appearance of a demon, specifically attracting passers-by and sucking their essence.
Yun Fu felt that it was not good to watch this, and she thought so in her heart, but she couldn't move her eyes away.
"Ahfu, are these peaches you picked for me?"
Wei Rong held the big red peach in his hand and waved it in front of the little guy.
Yun Fu's eyes and mind were completely occupied by the spring scenery, and she could not hear what the man was saying at all.
His cat remained motionless, as if struck by a pulse, its emerald eyes staring straight at him, but its gaze was fixed on the spot...
Wei Rong followed Ah Fu's gaze, lowered his head, and found that his clothes were open.
Perhaps there is a young girl living in the heart of this cat, but no matter what, it is still his Ah Fu, so a gleam of light flashed in Wei Rong's eyes, and he did not gather up the scattered clothes, leaving them open like this.
He reached out and picked up the little horny cat who was obsessed with his beauty.
Yun Fu felt something warm and cool on her palm, and she came to her senses, realizing that she had been picked up by Wei Rong, and the place where her palm touched was the man's chest.
Her mind froze for a moment, and the next moment, Yun Fu quickly retracted her claws and leaned back involuntarily.
Wei Rong held the cat in one hand and the peach in the other. He noticed that the cat in his arms suddenly leaned back, and the cat's head almost hit the ground. He quickly exerted force with his hands and pushed the cat back into his arms.
After pushing the chest away, it wasn't long before she was slapped back onto the man's chest. This time, not only Yun Fu's two paws, but her entire cat was pressed against the man's chest.
The tip of my nose and mouth collided directly, and a refreshing scent of soapberry came from the tip of my nose.
Something seemed to touch the side of his mouth.
Yun Fu unconsciously stuck out her tongue and licked it.
Wei Rong felt the touch on his chest, and his whole body tensed up instantly.
Yun Fu felt that the touch of this thing was very wrong. When she looked closely, the whole cat looked like something scary.
“Meow!!!!” Help!!!
With a scream, Yun Fu broke free from the man's shackles like crazy, ignoring the man's movements, and ran and crawled, finally climbing onto the beam and hiding.
Wei Rong's chest seemed to still have the touch left by Ah Fu's tongue.
Soft and itchy.
If it was before, Wei Rong wouldn't feel anything. After all, Ah Fu was just a cat.
Now, with a rough idea in his mind, Wei Rong could no longer regard Ah Fu as a simple cat, but a cat with a human soul.
Yun Fu's whole body was burning hot at this moment. It was not the heat caused by the hot weather, but the shy heat that came from the inside out.
My ears were burned and my paws started sweating unconsciously.
Yun Fu shook her body, trying to get rid of the heat, but the feeling of the place she had just touched seemed to have taken root and could not be shaken off.
Yun Fu raised her paws to cover her face and spat on herself fiercely.
Yun Fu! You really are a sex-crazed ghost! You're a scoundrel!
How could she do such a thing! Is this something a girl can do? ! ! !
Wei Rong suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, gathered his robes, then walked into the yard and carefully washed the peaches in his hand.
Shen Shi threw the master and servant, both of whom were of similar build, at the gate of the prefect's mansion, and wrote three big words with a brush - cat thief, and posted them on the forehead of the prefect's son.
Then he knocked on the door, and when he heard footsteps approaching from inside, he immediately flew away.
When the housekeeper opened the door, he saw two people lying on the ground.
The three large characters written in thick ink were particularly eye-catching.
"Cat thief?!"
After that unintentional touch (lick), Yun Fu was so embarrassed that she squatted on the corner of the beam. No matter how Wei Rong called her, she would not come down.
"Afu, come down. It's hot up there."
In fact, it was quite cool on the beam, but Yun Fu was being stubborn.
At this time, Wei Rong had already put on her clothes, and her hair was tied up with a cloud-patterned jade hairpin. She looked completely different from her disheveled appearance just now.
Shen Shi returned to the courtyard at this time and reported.
"Sir, the person has been dropped at the gate of the prefect's mansion."
Wei Rong's expression gradually grew colder. "Grandmaster Zhang has a good son, but he only does sneaky things."
Yun Fu pricked up her ears on the beam and listened to the conversation between the two people below.
From the conversation between the master and servant, Yun Fu also learned that many major events had happened during the more than one month since they left the disaster-stricken area.
This included the emperor "discovering" that the relief grain issued by the court had been replaced, and he directly ordered the execution of the imperial envoy who escorted the relief grain.
Eleven central officials involved in the relief grain were beheaded, and more than forty local officials, both large and small, were implicated.
Local officials stripped people of their official positions and beheaded them in public in front of tens of millions of disaster victims to reassure the people.
Some officials' crimes were not punishable by beheading, but the emperor still beheaded them all despite the ministers' objections.
Such drastic measures directly caused the loss of most of the officials arranged by King Cheng in the court, and almost all the local officials who were won over were implicated.
For a time, King Cheng, who had originally been supported by the people, became a person that officials dared not contact privately.
What King Cheng had built collapsed instantly during the exchange of disaster relief grain.
After this incident, many ministers in the court who were neutral and watching have turned to the new emperor.
It was thought that without Wei Rong's advice and support, the new emperor, who was usually indecisive, would resort to such tactics.
The means were too harsh and violent, but they cleared out most of the court.
In particular, officials who embezzled relief funds and exchanged relief grain were executed in front of the victims, and even the ninth-rank officials were not spared.
This move won the support of the people for the emperor.
Yun Fu was touched for a moment when she heard Shen Shi's report.
Killing so many court officials was indeed too cruel, but it won the hearts of the people.
What the emperor wants is the hearts of the people, not the hearts of his subjects.
Ministers are tools to assist the emperor in governing the world. If these tools are not useful, then they will be replaced with a batch of more useful ones. However, if the hearts of the people of the world are not on the emperor, then the position where the emperor sits may collapse at any time.
Yun Fu thought the emperor's move was very good and completely straightforward.
At this time, Yun Fu also realized what Wei Rong meant when he talked with the emperor about replacing those profit-seeking ministers for the sake of the people of the world.
