Chapter 884: Idiot

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At first, Sixth Young Master Han was also a little puzzled. In a flash, he thought of something. “Idiot, the Imperial Court has issued a national policy and has taken in a large number of refugees. The resettlement of the refugees is related to Princess Shaoyi promoting the planting of sweet potatoes. Otherwise, food will become the biggest problem when a million refugees gather in the Liaodong area. If there’s not enough food, it’s easy to cause a riot. The government office of the state capital can’t escape its responsibility. Also, right now, the most troublesome prevention and treatment of the disease in the government office is also led by Princess Shaoyi…”

After figuring this out, he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. He felt that he had chosen the best time to knock on the mountain and scare the tiger. While dealing with Princess Shaoyi, he could also intimidate the nobles.

However, Princess Shaoyi had probably long guessed that the land-owning class would make a move.

Although Princess Shaoyi had played a huge role in helping to promote the planting of sweet potatoes, the sweet potatoes had been planted successfully on a large scale last year. The government also took this matter very seriously. This was not enough to make Ye Xiaoci, who had always been “wise”, stand on Princess Shaoyi’s side.

Therefore, as soon as Princess Shaoyi came to Xiangping, she first led the prevention of the disease and pulled Ye Xiaoci into her camp.

Once the land-owning class made any rash moves, she could use the power of the government office to deal with them.

This was not a scheme.

However, those who achieved great things often planned before the rain. Since the house was already built, why would they be afraid of being drenched in the rain?

This was Princess Shaoyi’s brilliance.

He Zhixian’s mind cleared, and his face immediately turned ashen. “If an epidemic erupts among the million refugees, the government office of the state capital will be the first to bear the brunt. Princess Shaoyi is the most important person to prevent and treat the epidemic. Moreover, Princess Shaoyi is not an ordinary person. She also has the royalists, the imperial family, and the Empress Dowager, who is in charge of the court now. It’s impossible for Lord Ye not to care if she has a grievance and reports it to the government office. The difference is how to manage it and how much…”

The authority of the government office had created a certain balance for the land-owning class. It was impossible for him to easily break the balance and cause trouble for himself. Even if Ye Xiaoci accepted this case, at most, he would find out the truth and restore Princess Shaoyi’s reputation.

However, if Ye Xiaoci stood on Princess Shaoyi’s side, he would definitely manage it to the end.

“It’s over, it’s over!” He Zhixian’s forehead kept breaking out in a cold sweat.

Although he was confident that he could avoid Huang Wenxian’s detection, this was under the premise that Madam Zhang’s case would be heard by the county office. He would directly participate in this case. Only then would it be foolproof.

However, now that the state government office had accepted Princess Shaoyi’s injustice, Madam Zhang’s complaint, which was directly related to her, was naturally handed over to the state government office for trial.

Once the case was thoroughly investigated, what he had done could not be hidden.

When one pulled up a radish, some dirt would come with it. The Han family would probably…

Sixth Young Master Han also thought of this and said anxiously, “No, I have to rush back to Xi’an immediately and report this matter to the family so that I can deal with it in advance. I’ll have to trouble Lord He to take on the matter in Xiangping for the time being. When I return to the clan and discuss it with the elders, I’ll definitely help you.”

When He Zhixian heard this, his expression turned ashen. Sixth Young Master Han had said it nicely. Once he left Xiangping, it would be equivalent to the Han family giving up on him.

Everything that had happened behind Madam Zhang’s complaint had been decided by Sixth Young Master Han. He had arranged it. If Sixth Young Master Han left, there would be no additional evidence that all of this was related to Sixth Young Master Han.

Sixth Young Master Han wanted to sacrifice him to protect himself and even the Han family.

He Zhixian’s eyes flashed. “Only if this matter doesn’t implicate the Han family can the Han family free up their hands to protect me from being implicated. Sixth Young Master, don’t worry. The government office won’t be able to trace it to me for a while…”

Sixth Young Master Han’s eyes flashed as he turned to leave.

At this moment, He Zhixian gave the servant beside him a look.

The servant understood and quietly took a step forward. He raised his elbow and suddenly struck the back of Sixth Young Master Han’s neck. Sixth Young Master Han’s vision darkened and he fell to the ground with a bang.

He Zhixian sneered and raised his leg to kick Sixth Young Master Han. “Pfft, do you think I’m a fool? I’ve been an official for more than ten years. How can I be fooled by a young brat?”

Sixth Young Master Han was a direct descendant of the Han family. As long as Sixth Young Master Han stayed in Xiangping City, he would be involved with Madam Zhang’s complaint. The Han family would not give up on him easily.

Recalling how Sixth Young Master Han had been drinking and ordering him around recently, He Zhixian couldn’t help but spit at him and kick him a few more times.

Yu Youyao returned to the Yu Garden from the government office. Just as she changed her clothes, Xia Tao came over to report, “Young Miss, Madam Zhang’s family has already been brought to the Yu Garden. They have been arranged to stay in the side courtyard. I’ve sent someone to get a doctor to treat Madam Zhang’s in-laws.”

Yu Youyao nodded. “Take good care of them.”

Madam Zhang was just an insignificant character in this matter. From Madam Zhang’s previous words, she knew very little, but one should not forget that Madam Zhang was also a key person in this matter.

Madam Zhang was the one who had obtained and brewed the medicine. Before Madam Zhang’s husband died, he had the most contact with Madam Zhang. The person who instigated Madam Zhang to complain had also come into contact with her…

There were many things that could be excavated.

There was naturally no need to mention Ye Xiaoci’s ability to become a governor. There was naturally an interrogation process in the government office. He could find some unexpected evidence from these insignificant clues.

Madam Zhang had brought her child along and remarried. After her husband passed away, it was also because her family couldn’t support her that she was willing to take the risk and stop her carriage.

It was obvious that Madam Zhang valued her family very much.

She had brought Madam Zhang’s family into the Yu Garden to take care of them. To Madam Zhang, it was a grace and a threat.

As long as Madam Zhang’s family was in Yu Youyao’s hands, all of Madam Zhang’s confessions in the court would be the most beneficial to Yu Youyao. Madam Zhang’s heart was with her family, so she would do everything she could to find more details that would help Yu Youyao.

Xia Tao agreed and said, “In addition, Madam Bai and Old Master Bai are requesting an audience outside.”

“They’re quite sensible.” Yu Youyao’s lips curled up slightly as she said calmly, “Please come in!”

Xia Tao received her orders and left. Not long after, she brought Old Master Bai and Madam Bai into the living room.

The two of them lowered their heads and kowtowed to Yu Youyao obediently. “Greetings, Princess.”

Yu Youyao picked up her teacup and took a slow sip. Then, she put down her teacup and looked at the two people kneeling on the ground, observing and examining them.

The living room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Smoke rose from the phoenix head incense burner. The faint agarwood fragrance was elegant and calm, making one’s mind calm down. One could also clearly sense the dignity of a superior.

Old Master Bai and Madam Bai were so nervous that their backs were covered in sweat.
