Chapter 456 The prince is a treasure boy
Huo Changhe pursed his lips and smiled, feeling the changes in the "pill" in his mouth.
"It's delicious. It's sweet at first and then bitter. It also has a strange aroma. What is this?"
"Cocoa beans," Yan Ruyu pushed him toward the back door.
Huo Changhe looked around and asked: "How about I push you? Are you tired?"
"You're not tired," Yan Ruyu pressed his shoulder, "Just remember it, Your Majesty. When we set off again, you can drive for me."
"No problem, I'd love to."
Huo Changhe frowned: "I want to drive you. After passing Lincheng, the weather will change and the road will not be easy to walk. Let's buy some thick bedding, clothes, and some good charcoal in Lincheng. You can just rest in the car."
Yan Ruyu chuckled: "It sounds like traveling in an RV."
"RV? That's a good name," Huo Changhe thought seriously. "It's a pity that the road in the future will be so narrow that it won't be easy for a car that is too big. Otherwise, I will build you a RV according to your name."
"I must do it when I wait until the northwest," Huo Changhe said, "I will do it myself."
Yan Ruyu felt a little warm in her heart: "Your Majesty, can you still do carpentry?"
"It's okay. Too delicate mechanisms can't be built. Ordinary furniture or cars are still okay," Huo Changhe said in a slow voice. "I remember when I first arrived in the northwest, the buildings were not very good and there were not many pieces of furniture. I learned it from an old carpenter at that time."
Yan Ruyu could tell that Huo Changhe had a lot of affection for Northwest, and probably it was more like home to him.
"Then when we arrive, we will build it together and take root there. It will be our paradise."
Huo Changhe looked up at her: "Okay."
The master was already waiting at the back door. When he saw them arriving, he hurried forward to greet them and invited them in politely.
"The front door is closed, the carriages, horses and stones are still there, and the words on them are very clear," the master introduced as he walked, "the few people were brought in, and the bodies were placed in the hall."
"Your Excellency sent someone to invite the widower. He said he wanted to investigate the cause of death in court."
Yan Ruyuxin said that as soon as the chief manager died, he was put into the space. The body was not damaged at all and it was the same as the one who had just died when he was taken out.
The master took them to the side door of the lobby. They were separated by a curtain. Although they couldn't see it, they could hear it very clearly.
The master whispered: "Sir, miss, you two have been wronged right here!"
"Okay, thank you, Master." Yan Ruyu nodded.
The master personally moved a small table, put tea and snacks on it, and then excused himself.
Yan Ruyu twisted a piece and gave it to Huo Changhe: "Want to eat it? It tastes pretty good."
Huo Changhe took it and took a sip: "It's a bit too sweet. I can also make hibiscus cake."
Yan Ruyu: "!!"
Yan Ruyu praised: "Your Majesty is a treasure."
It was the first time that Huo Changhe heard this statement. He heard the literal meaning and knew that Yan Ruyu was praising him, so he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"I will still..."
In the lobby, Magistrate Wu was stunned.
"Snapped!"
"Who is in the hall? Report your name!"
Liu Da was still wearing a cloth cover, and the things in his mouth were taken out. His voice was a bit muffled, but he still couldn't hide his anger and pride: "I am the bodyguard of the eldest son of the county lord's palace, my surname is Liu Mingda!"
Magistrate Wu waved his hand, and the cloth covers on their heads were also removed.
Magistrate Wu snorted coldly: "Since you are just a guard, why don't you kneel down when you see me in the lobby?"
Liu Da narrowed his eyes slightly: "Why don't you kneel down? Don't you know, sir?"
"I don't know," Magistrate Wu looked straight down, "Tell me the truth."
The master was standing aside, writing furiously without missing a word.
Yan Ruyu lowered her eyes and listened, "This magistrate Wu is good, he can also ask questions and traps."
However, it makes sense to think about it. Although the county magistrate's official position is not high, it is still the head of a county. He also went through the imperial examination and fought through many layers of siege before he changed into official clothes. What's more, he has been working here for so many years. .
The mistress, mother and son of Yongchang County were obviously not easy to get along with, and it was only because of his ability that Magistrate Wu could serve under them for so many years.
As for Liu Da, nothing has gone his way since he came to Yongchang.
Now, all I can think of is anger and unwillingness, wishing I could drag Magistrate Wu down.
"Why don't you kneel to you, Magistrate Wu, just because I am from the County Lord's Mansion! Not just me, but everyone in the County Lord's Mansion, from the maids to the servants and the doorkeepers, have they ever knelt in front of you? ?”
Magistrate Wu was not annoyed and smiled softly: "That's true. However, I don't ask you to kneel. That's because I am lenient. Now when you go to the lobby, you must kneel!"
He cupped his hands and said, "What you are kneeling on is not just an official, but our law and the imperial court!"
He didn't say it was the emperor.
Liu Da didn't care so much. He raised his chest and chin, looking arrogant.
"What law? In Yongchang, the county master's palace is the law! You, a seventh-grade official and a small county magistrate, are worthy of letting me kneel down. That means you have no royal law!"
Magistrate Wu exhaled slowly, nodded and said: "Okay, since you said so..."
"How?" Liu Da asked.
Magistrate Wu's voice suddenly became sharp: "Come on! Knock him down for me and give him twenty sticks first!"
The government officials had been waiting for this, so they stepped forward and kicked Liu Da down. After a fight with their sticks, the people behind him started fighting.
"Pap-pap" every time, it's really merciless, the stick will hit the flesh.
Liu Da had never suffered this crime before. His skin and flesh were torn apart after just a few sticks, and he couldn't bear it.
He yelled in the hall: "Wu, you bastard! How dare you do this to me! Just wait for me. When I see the eldest son in Lincheng, I will make you look good."
Magistrate Wu didn't think so, and said to himself that it's not certain whether you can return to Lincheng. Anyway, let's have a good time today.
The others looked on, and they were just as crazy as Liu Da. They were a little scared when they saw blood soaked through their clothes and the smell of blood was strong in their noses.
Magistrate Wu was stunned: "What about you?"
One of them had been entangled in waterweed on his legs, and he was already a little dazed and frightened. When he saw blood, his mind was confused, and his legs became weak and he knelt down.
As soon as he knelt, others followed suit.
"Very good, what are they called? Come and sign up!"
Several people signed up one by one, and Magistrate Wu asked again: "You guys don't look like good people. If you are really from the County Lord's Mansion, you can go to the water freely during the day. Why do you have to wait for night? Such a ghost Sneaky!"
Several people groaned and looked at Liu Da.
They didn't know much, Liu Da didn't tell them completely.
In fact, Liu Da didn't know much about the specifics. It was the eldest son who wrote a letter to Jinshan and asked Jinshan to join them.
They cooperate, Jinshan is the main force.
It's better now, they are trapped in the lobby, Liu Da is beaten, and Jinshan doesn't even show his face.
Liu Da thought about this and became extremely angry: "County Magistrate Wu, otherwise you would order someone to find the Jinshan guard. He has a letter in his hand, which will definitely prove our purpose of coming and that we are from the county lord's palace."
Yan Ruyu sneered silently: Jinshan? He couldn't come at all.
