Report to your majesty, the prince is courting death again

Chapter 168

Xu An was prepared to take a two-pronged approach.

During this period of refuge in Nancheng County, he would thoroughly solve the hidden problems in Nancheng County.

Otherwise, with the identity of the Nancheng County Magistrate, his plan of lying down would be difficult to implement, as the old shady Emperor Yuan Kang would always find things for him to do.

After talking with Gongsun Yan, Xu An realized how bad the situation in Nancheng County was.

Before, he boasted a little too much that he could handle any case, but now there are hundreds of complaints, but only a few of them have been handled by the county government.

Others, because they have someone behind them, are not afraid of the county government at all, and even directly send people to threaten the victims.

This is the reason why the number of people writing complaints in Nancheng County has decreased significantly in recent days. Being threatened, and the county government has not done much, they can only choose to endure it.

This is obviously someone behind the scenes fanning the flames!

"Hey, do you think that I alone can't make a big wave in Nancheng?"

"I want to build a society ruled by law, which is a long-term plan. How can I let you mess it up?"

Xu An muttered secretly.

After a moment of silence, he also left Nancheng County and went to find Cheng Hu, An Jiancheng and others in person.

Don't you think that I, the young master, can't make a big wave because I have few people?

Then I will show you.

Anyway, Cheng Hu and An Jiancheng don't have any formal positions, and they haven't served in the army, so they can just fool them over.

Besides, these guys are very diligent now. Because of Song Yuyan, several people have been looking for a place to build the Kyoto Grand Theater in the past two days in order to make her smile.

And they really found it.

The address is at the inlay of Nancheng County and Xicheng. This is where three main roads converge. In addition, it is backed by the canal, and all the merchants who come and go gather here, which is extremely prosperous.

Cheng Hu and An Jiancheng bought this place forcefully.

Of course, the ones who contributed the most money were Song Yuyan and Xu An... Most of the time, they were just responsible for doing things.

When Xu An came over, Cheng Hu and An Jiancheng were directing people to demolish the original buildings. Hundreds of people were busy, but most of them were refugees.

"What's going on?"

As soon as he saw Cheng Hu, Xu An asked the question in his heart.

"What else can we do? Help with disaster relief!"

Cheng Hu sat on the steps, holding a grass root in his mouth, and was basking in the sun leisurely: "For some reason, the victims are all pouring into Kyoto. In just a few days, the 20,000 refugees outside the city have reached more than 40,000."

"Damn it, this is more than the corvée that the court would have to issue if it were to fight a war."

"The idea you gave the prince is a good idea, but whether it is repairing the palace or repairing the road... so many people are not needed at all."

"You know the prince, he loves the people like his own children. If you ask him to stop caring about the refugees, he will dare to fight you!"

"So, don't we need people here? Recruit some and help him share some of the pressure."

Chen Hu said it easily, but Xu An's face became solemn.

The victims began to gather in large numbers in Kyoto in such a short period of time. Someone must have spread the rumor that they could survive in Kyoto, so that the victims from all over the country rushed to Kyoto.

Now it's only 40,000, but in a few days it might double... Hundreds of thousands of refugees gathered in Kyoto, if something unexpected happens to this force, it will be a torrent of steel!

The development of Nancheng was attacked, the prince's disaster relief was attacked... Damn it, Xu An always felt that there was a big hand behind, controlling these things.

Is it Zhao Si?

But isn't this old guy still in Beidi? Could it be that this old guy is remotely controlling thousands of miles away?

What's going on in the court? What's going on with Du Ruhua? What's going on with Zhang Anshi and Qin Dehai? Are these all tricks?

Xu An always felt that he had overlooked something...

No, it should be said that he seemed to have grasped something, and he was just one step away from the final blow.

"Hey, what are you daydreaming about? I heard that you showed your prowess in the Dongyu Mission today, you're awesome!"

Cheng Hu saw Xu An fall into silence and slapped him on the back of his head.

This guy seemed to have gotten wiser after sleeping with the princess. Although his martial arts were not very good, he could always think of ways to win by surprise. They were all envious.

Xu An came to his senses and thought of the purpose of his coming here.

He immediately started his performance.

"What a bullshit! I'm in big trouble."

Xu An sat down next to Cheng Hu, looking pitiful: "First I beat Que Ying, then I beat Yelu Qi. I feel bad. I think they will assassinate me..."

Cheng Hu got goosebumps all over his body, jumped far away, and looked at Xu An with a vigilant face.

How could he not know what kind of character this guy was?

He was a man who was fearless.The master of the house, dared to sleep with the princess, dared to mock the officials, but now he is afraid of a mere assassination? What a joke?

Besides, the emperor and Xu Xiao still have people to protect you, right?

Thinking of the day when Xu An was in the brothel, dozens of masters suddenly rushed out from the surrounding area, Cheng Hu couldn't help but envy and jealousy.

Damn it, with your guard configuration, the current prince is nothing in front of you!

"Hey, hey, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't look so pitiful. We are all so familiar with each other. If you stick your butt out, I will know what bullshit you are talking about!"

Cheng Hu glared at Xu An with a warning face.

"Vulgar!"

Xu An cursed and said, "Then let me get back to the point. You guys should follow me for a while. There may be some big things to do next!"

Cheng Hu's mouth twitched suddenly: "Want to drag someone down with you again?"

Xu An grinned. He liked Cheng Hu's directness: "You can understand it this way. After all, we are from the same military lineage. We will prosper together and suffer together."

"First of all, I have to ask."

Cheng Hu stared at Xu An and said, "If I fail, will I be beaten to death by my father or by the queen."

"If it's my father, then there's no problem."

"If it's the queen, then you can stay wherever you want... Now I shiver when I think of the queen."

Xu An's mouth twitched slightly. This is a psychological trauma caused by the queen!

"It's not that serious, it's not that serious, in fact, it's just dealing with some blind people."

He smiled and waved his hand, saying: "Someone in Nancheng County is trying to trip me up. The people who beat me want to ruin my reputation. I guess there may be a civil servant group behind it."

"So, I dragged you along, after all, I can't do it alone!"

Cheng Hu was relieved when he heard this: "That's good... But, do you still have a reputation?"

"Get lost!" Xu An punched him.

Before the fist landed on Cheng Hu, Cheng Hu raised his hand to catch it.

He twisted it lightly, and Xu An felt that his entire arm was about to fall off.

"It hurts..." Xu An grinned.

"Hehe, it doesn't hurt to tell you, Master, I am now a seventh-rank warrior."

Cheng Hu let go of Xu An, held his head high and gathered his clothes.

"Since you are so pitiful, I will agree to your request."

"Starting tomorrow, I will be your bodyguard with great reluctance!"
