Chapter 370 Collusion

Gu Huai'an helplessly sighed, this Zhenzhou city people will think like this is normal, these witchcraft people's loopholes, is nothing more than the people's ignorance, the city's officials are still in collusion with these witchcraft people, these people can't do anything else, they can only so watch.

"General Feng, what do you think we should do now?"

They are so little manpower situation, it is best not to act rashly good, and now can only temporarily stay put, to see the next thing may not be so simple to resolve, the

Shen Qianshan also never faced such a situation, immediately let him think of a countermeasure, is also almost impossible, the reasoning of the heavenly signs, they these people understand, but exactly how should be able to explain clearly with those people? If not carefully clear words, the people will, as usual, believe those sorcerers and not believe them.

People are known to show reverence for the unknown, so even if they have the official's seal in their hands, the people may not trust them, and that's what makes this matter the most difficult to deal with.

"I can't think of anything else for the time being, but we can't just sit here and wait for death, we have to go into the city first and find out the specifics, or at least get in touch with the officials in the city first."

The key problem was that even if Chasing Cloud had disposed of the people with second thoughts inside the team, who could guarantee that there were no people arranged in by other forces among this team now, other than the army led by Huang Hao?

"Let's do it this way, General Huang and the female court ... chasing clouds, as well as Lord Song all stay here to station temporarily, I will go into the city first with General Feng, and decide what should be done after exploring the realities." Gu Huai'an almost let his mouth slip and said the name of Gu Qiang's court lady, but fortunately he reacted in time, which stopped him.

Court Lady Gu tugged at Gu Huai'an's sleeve, "Can I go with you guys? I'm not too worried about you guys."

"No, you stay here, you're not allowed to go there either." Shen Qianshan still had palpitations about what had just happened, if all the people in the city had really become that scary, if Court Lady Gu followed them, it would be the equivalent of being in danger with them, if she stayed here, at least there were still so many people, it was safer.

After the two of them, Gu Huai'an and Song Yu, had discussed everything, Gu Huai'an entered the city with his own token, the guards at the city gates seemed to have been replaced with new people, and no one recognized the faces of the two of them, Gu Huai'an and Shen Qianshan, and it seemed as if no one had bothered to explore where the original one had actually gone.

Gu Huai'an shook his head helplessly, it seemed that everyone up and down this Zhenzhou City was seriously compelled by this Heavenly Master, even when someone went missing, no one cared.

"Then what should we do now?" Gu Huai'an was holding the token in his hand, and in reality, he was not much higher in rank than this Zhenzhou City's magistrate, so if they really confronted each other, they really might not be able to suppress this Zhenzhou City's magistrate, and in case if it really didn't work out, the two of them would presumably be in danger as well.

"There shouldn't be any problem, after all, this is just a county town, at least it's an official from the capital, they wouldn't dare to have any excessive behavior towards you." Shen Qianshan although he himself can't call it right, but, Zhenzhou city is also considered to be not too far away from the capital, Zhenzhou city's county magistrate even if he is more bold, he wouldn't dare to show any disrespect to the Minister of Rites, right?

But Shen Qianshan, after all, witnessed that kind of thing, there is that kind of thing, the county magistrate does not care about it, what kind of thing will happen after the two of them enter the city, no one can say.

"Then should we go to the county office first now?" Gu Huai'an had brought his own official seal in addition to his token for insurance purposes, it was really a bit heavy the two of them walking down the street like this, it was also really a bit eye-catching.

Shen Qianshan looked at the probing gazes of the people around him and nodded, "Then let's go to the county office first to take a look, after all, you're also an official sent by the imperial court, so they shouldn't be able to do anything excessive to you."

Gu Huai'an still trusted Shen Qianshan and was much more relieved after having his words.

The guards at the entrance of the city were replaced, and the other guard, who they knocked out, went off somewhere, so they entered the city without encountering any obstacles, and you didn't have anyone to spot them at all.

This drought has a wide range of impact, not only Zhenzhou City, there are several surrounding small towns are also affected, but they passed by but only found this one place was witchcraft drilled, it seems that this Zhenzhou City magistrate, is not a good thing, either with these so-called celestial masters, or the brain into the water, so that these people will let these people drilled a hole.

Shen Qianshan is a member of the royal family, in fact, even inside the palace, the emperor, the ministers, and the concubines in the harem, all very much believe in these so-called Taoist priests and magicians, and in the palace, they are all very well treated, but the general royal family, although they believe in these, in any case, they will not have the same kind of influence as today, and if every drought is a problem, and someone needs to be used as a sacrifice, then sooner or later, Bei'an country will be one day will be killed off by them.

And not to mention that the person who heard these things now is Shen Qianshan, even if it is a different position, the person who is standing here now is that murderous Shen Zhongbai, he will definitely not allow these so-called heavenly masters, to confuse the public and jeopardize his own people.

Shen Qianshan and Gu Huai'an two people quickly walked to the entrance of the government office, I did not expect that the government office, which was originally set up for the people to redress their grievances, when the two of them walked to the door, they were unexpectedly stopped by the guards of the magistrates as well.

"Who is it? What are you doing here?"

The yamen at the door had a look of looking down on people, and while talking, he also reached out his hand at the two of them, obviously wanting to make the two of them give some silver before he would let them in.

Gu Huai'an looked at this magistrate and felt angry, as a public official, he did not protect the people, and even helped those so-called sorcerers and celestial masters, harming so many people in the city, it was simply too stupid to be healed!

Gu Huai'an didn't bother to see eye to eye with them, and directly took out his official seal and token, "Then please trouble both of you to pass the word to your magistrate lord, and see if with these two things, the two of us can get into the court house?"

Although the yamen at the door is short-sighted, but at least still know the words, the Ministry of Rites of the token, he realized that he just said the wrong words, and then look at the two people in front of them are extraordinary temperament, absolutely not small, they do not dare to offend them, so they can only grey and run in.

"Wait a moment, Second Prince, I'll go in and inform you right away."

Although the yamen are dog-eyed, but they also know how to judge the situation, this person at the door holding this token from the Ministry of Rites, it means that it is very likely to be a big official from Kyoto, it is definitely not someone he can afford to offend.

"My lord, there are two men outside the door who want to see you."

The magistrate of this Zhenzhou City was currently lying on his soft couch, so how could he still listen to the words of this magistrate? "Tell them that the master is not handling official business today, come back another day!"

"But ..." the magistrate hurriedly placed the token in front of Liu Yue's eyes, "My lord, this is the token that the gentleman at the door asked me to show you."

This Zhenzhou Prefecture's governor, name Liu Yue, before also counted and Shen Qianshan played a period of time, before Shen Qianshan live in the mountain village, several times came to Zhenzhou, met Liu Yue a few times, but now at this time, Shen Qianshan face wearing a human / skin / mask, Liu Yue simply can not recognize the identity of Shen Qianshan.

What's more, Liu Yue had already done such a thing, Shen Qianshan would be even more reluctant to admit that he had once known him.

"For this county official, have you ever heard of him?" Although Gu Huai'an had come to this place before when he was doing business, but it was just a transit, at most, he only stayed for one night, and even more so, he had never dealt with any of their officials, so he didn't know what kind of person this Zhenzhou governor really was.

Shen Qianshan shook his head, "I don't know how I should answer you right now, I did come into contact with him for a while, and I also know him a bit, but you don't know a lot, the only thing I know is that this person is an official who has passed the regular imperial examination, but according to common sense, if he is really an official who has passed the imperial examination, how could he be as ignorant as those people? As for why he would do such a thing, I'm not quite sure, but perhaps we'll be able to figure it out after we meet later."

As soon as Liu Yue saw the token, his eyes immediately widened as well, "This seems to be the token of the Minister of Ceremonies, ah, did the person who came say what his name was?"

Regardless of who exactly was coming, this was an official who was often sent over, so how could one not go out to greet them?

The magistrate shook his head, "That visitor didn't say his name, he just asked my little one to bring this token to you."

Is it really the new Minister of Rites who's here?

Liu Yue also can not hesitate, hurriedly changed into the official clothes, rushed to the Yamen mouth to go, a see the door of the two people, Liu Yue heart also almost understand, these two people are not small, I am afraid that really is the court sent down the people.

"My humble servant, Liu Yue, I pay my respects to you two, I don't know if you two come here this time, but do you have any important matters on your mind? Do you need my help?"

Liu Yue saw the capital to people, the heart is actually some panic, Zhenzhou city now happening these things, in the case of the law are difficult to say the past, and now came to two officials from the capital, in case if they go back to report to the emperor, the emperor knows that he did these things, then he can absolutely is a dead end.
