HCB Chapter 169 Evil Sect
Chapter 169 Evil Sect
When Chun'er saw Eunuch Cao coming again, she felt like she was facing a formidable enemy.
The eldest lady went to the farm dormitory to take care of the little grandchildren. There was only her and a few yamen runners here. How could she be stopped?
She was so anxious that her legs were shaking. She brought out the excuse Yu Jiuer used yesterday and said, "Father-in-law, please forgive me! This tree house has been soaked by the flood. It is really unsafe. I hope you will not take any risks."
"If Yu Jiuer can live here, why can't a hybrid go in?" As he said that, he pushed Chun'er away and walked in with a swagger.
Yu Jiuer hurried over and ran behind him to stop him: "Eunuch, please stay!"
When Eunuch Cao heard the county magistrate's voice, he quickened his pace and rushed inside.
"Ah!" A remaining beam from the big tree fell down and hit Eunuch Cao's shoulder squarely.
Yu Jiuer was caught off guard by this sudden situation!
Has her mouth been blessed? Is it so effective?
The house she used to live in on the tree had been destroyed beyond recognition by the flood, so the locals came down and helped her tear it down, and only repaired and cleaned up a few courtyards around the tree for her to live in.
Maybe I didn't pay attention and missed the beam of the house on the tree.
Fortunately, the eldest lady took the children and servants to live in a sturdy farm dormitory and only came back to play occasionally.
The imperial guards behind him ran in and took a look at the eunuch Cao who was lying unconscious on the ground.
Looking up at the tree, they found that it was an accident. Someone stepped forward to check the breath of Eunuch Cao and said thankfully, "He's still alive!"
Then, another tall and burly leader of the Imperial Guards shouted at Yu Jiuer fiercely: "Yu Wushuang, what's your explanation?"
All the people around the emperor think highly of themselves and are arrogant. It is common for them to order a small county magistrate like Yu Jiuer around.
But Yu Jiuer didn't tolerate their bad habits. She spread her hands and said, "I told you it was unsafe. Are you blaming me? Why didn't you stop them?"
Who doesn't know how to pass the buck?
The Imperial Guards had not expected the county magistrate to be so arrogant. Just as they were about to show off their power, Yu Jiuer took the initiative and kicked the unconscious eunuch Cao, saying:
"Some people don't listen to advice and want to show off their power by relying on their status as a favorite of the emperor? Don't they even look at whose territory this is?"
The imperial guards looked at each other in dismay and had no choice but to quickly carry Eunuch Cao out, away from the dangerous place, and have the imperial physician treat him immediately.
After the accompanying imperial physician took out a few silver needles and operated on him, Eunuch Cao slowly woke up: "Assassin, there is an assassin!"
Yu Jiuer suppressed his laughter, waved his hand, and asked the yamen runner to lift the beam that hit him in front of him: "Eunuch, it was an accident. This is the 'assassin'. It is really unsafe near this tree house. I have warned you long ago!"
Eunuch Cao looked at the imperial guards and knew from their eyes that it was indeed an accident. He stopped cursing and cried out in a pinched voice: "What a freak! Ouch! It hurts so much!"
"Hurry! Carry Eunuch Cao back and take good care of him. Don't come here again!" Yu Jiuer started to drive people away!
The imperial guards did not want to cause trouble, so the bailiffs found a door panel for them in the corner and carried the "honorable" eunuch Cao up like an animal to be slaughtered.
Although Eunuch Cao was a servant, he had been with the emperor since he was young and had never suffered any hardship. This was the first time in his life that he was treated like this. He slapped the hard door in disgust and shouted, "Can't you wipe off the mud first before carrying the mess up?"
"Eunuch, please be patient. The flood has just receded and it's hard to find even a clean rag. Have a safe trip!" Yu Jiuer waved to the Imperial Guards, signaling them to leave quickly!
The Imperial Guards were all rough men, and no one cared about so much. They just pretended not to hear anything and quickly carried the eunuch named Zhazha back.
Now, the Imperial Guards have set up camp on the cleared avenue, so Eunuch Cao lives nearby in a small two-story building next to the avenue.
He kept cursing all the way, causing the people on the road to feel like they were watching a play, wanting to laugh but not daring to.
After the uninvited guest left, Yu Jiuer kicked the beam at her feet and said to the yamen runner, "Good beam! Come, keep it. When I rebuild my house, I will place this beam in the middle of the house. It is a magical artifact to ward off evil spirits!"
“Yes!” The bailiff hurriedly held the “magic weapon to ward off evil spirits” in his arms.
Yu Jiuer instructed the yamen runners again: "Also, tell everyone not to repair any wooden houses. The wood that was damaged and soaked by the flood is not safe. Tear them all down! When I get some money, we will all build stone houses!"
This time, Eunuch Cao was accidentally injured and howled in pain.
Yu Jiuer did something to make him drowsy all day and not have the energy to urge Jun Mo to set off. In this way, she would have enough time to arrange the follow-up work in the county.
Jun Mo planned to keep Li Yun in Yinshan County to assist the county magistrate and other managers in managing Yinshan County.
The local people in Yinshan all knew that Yu Jiu's daughter was dressed as men, but the families of the new prisoners and the Yulin Army were still kept in the dark!
They had always thought that Yu Wushuang and Yu Jiuer were different people, but they had only seen County Magistrate Yu dressed in men's clothes, but had never seen Yu Jiuer in women's clothes.
They also had doubts, but the local people knew very well that the crime of women disguising themselves as men to deceive the emperor was a serious one, and they would suffer if they were exposed.
Therefore, no one talked about it. If new people asked about it, they would just avoid the question and say, "The Ninth Miss is weak and rarely goes out! Don't ask nonsense questions!"
At this moment, many people were puzzled by Li Yun's sudden joining.
Yu Jiuer said to them: "In the future, I will concentrate on handling the affairs of the Western Regions. All matters in the county, big or small, will be handed over to the new Lord Li and the county magistrate. If you want to live a good life, you must obey their instructions in the future!"
The local people all knew that Yu Jiuer was about to follow the little emperor's grandson to the capital. Some people were anxious and secretly asked Yu Jiuer: "Miss Jiu, are you going to ignore us?"
"How could that be? I went to the capital to find a better way to make a living for you! This is my hometown, I will definitely come back! Put your heart at ease, and don't let everyone worry about you when you go back! I'm going to the capital to find money from Lao Lai to build my hometown, and your life will only get better and better!"
With Yu Jiuer's words, the people finally felt relieved. They nodded and said to Yu Jiuer, "As long as you don't ignore us, we won't trust anyone but you! Don't worry! We will work hard at home, listen to Lord Li, and wait for you to come back! Be careful in the capital!"
Yu Jiuer nodded. She left suddenly, and the people were understandably worried. I hope everything goes well for her trip to the capital! She won't disappoint the people!
The eldest princess stayed in Yinshan County to negotiate terms with Jun Mo. Both of her daughters died in Yinshan County, so she was naturally very angry and was unwilling to not get any interest.
Before agreeing to marry Princess Qingrou to Mr. Rong, she found Jun Mo and said, "I can leave Princess Qingrou in Yinshan County. I don't care about people who don't care about me, but you have to return all the letters that threaten me!"
Jun Mo said proudly, "Aunt Royal, you have no say in this game of chess! Qingrou married my uncle, so she is considered a family member. Aunt Royal, should you consider helping your family members?"
The eldest princess' face turned red and white. She tried to hold it together for a long time, but finally couldn't hold it back anymore. She covered her face and cried loudly: "You all just know how to bully me! I raised two ungrateful wolves, and even my own nephew threatened me. What's the point of me living?"
Jun Mo drank his tea slowly and felt that the tea from Yinshan County was particularly sweet.
On the day of Mr. Rong and Princess Qingrou's wedding, Cheng An and Princess Qile also came to watch the ceremony.
The more Yu Jiuer looks at Princess Qile, the more she likes her.
The reason was that when Concubine Xiang and the Third Prince left, they were going to take her away.
Cheng An almost jumped up to fight because of this.
In the end, it was Princess Qile who pinned him down and said to Concubine Xiang, "Auntie, since I have lost my virginity here, I will be a person here in life and a ghost here in death. Just treat me as if you don't have a niece like me! Please write a letter to my father and tell him that I am unfilial and will be filial to him in my next life!"
Xiang Fei was so angry that she pointed at her nose and yelled, "I told you to go back to the capital with me, do you really think you are so important? Your father has six princesses, one more and one less won't make much difference! You are so depraved, don't tell others you are my Miao princess anymore, it's shameful!"
After saying that, he glared at Yu Jiuer fiercely, then left angrily!
Princess Qile took Cheng An and kowtowed three times in front of Concubine Xiang's back, bidding farewell to her past self forever.
Yu Jiuer felt so happy when she saw it!
