Chapter 139: I won’t let the locust plague disappear so quickly
After Kong Qing finished writing, he came to call Prince An and Jin Yuyao.
When Prince An saw Kong Qing's expression, he kicked him and asked, "Why are you so anxious? Which side are you from?"
Kong Qing explained innocently, "Your Majesty, of course I'm on your side. Then let's not sign. We can go in whenever you want."
Prince An glared at him and hesitated for a moment before entering the room.
Kong Qing said to Jin Yuyao from behind, "Doctor Jin, I'm really sorry."
Jin Yuyao said: "It's okay. It has nothing to do with you."
She walked in front, and Kong Qing followed behind her.
After Jin Yuyao came in, she still sat in her original seat.
Kong Qing wrote three copies, one for Jin Yuyao, one for Zhang Huai, and one for the county government.
Jin Yuyao took a look at the content, then took a pen, signed her name, and pressed her fingerprint.
After she finished writing, she looked up at An Zhanghuai holding the pen, not knowing how to start.
And the hand holding the pen was shaking slightly.
Jin Yuyao thought it was too late to be afraid now.
Kong Qing couldn't bear it any longer and stood beside Zhang Huai. He couldn't help but say, "Zhang Huai, you're a man but not as straightforward as a woman. You guys are the ones who caused all this. I don't know what you're afraid of. Hurry up and write. We're all waiting for you."
Zhang Huai blushed and then he took a pen, dipped it in ink, wrote his name on the paper, and then pressed his fingerprint.
Kong Qing watched him finish writing and took it directly.
Then his name was written on all three copies.
Only then did Kong Qing give Zhang Huai's share to him.
Zhang Huai took the paper in a daze. How could he risk his life just by coming in here?
Chen Qianhe said, "Okay, you can leave now. Remember to come back in fifteen days. Don't even think about running away these few days. I will always be watching you. Don't even think about it."
Zhang Huai stood up and walked out. He felt high-spirited when he came in, but dejected when he left. How could he have risked his life by going to the yamen?
Why does it feel more wrong the more I think about it?
Now watching those five people leave.
Chen Qianhe said, "Doctor Jin, what are you thinking? Why would you gamble with your own life? Life is not a joke."
Jin Yuyao didn't care about these things and said directly to Prince An: "Your Highness, you need to have someone keep an eye on Zhang Huai these days, and then find Master Liangran."
Prince An said, "Cut the wind and leave the wind."
The two came out.
Prince An ordered, "Zhan Feng, from now on, keep an eye on the man called Zhang Huai. Li Feng, go to Nan'an Temple and follow a man called Le Ran."
"Yes"
The two of them responded and then left.
Chen Qianhe also called over a few yamen runners: "Go keep an eye on the remaining four people besides Zhang Huai."
"It's an adult."
The yamen runners also left.
Kong Qing kept his mouth open from the moment he saw Zhan Feng and Li Feng appear until they left.
After the two men left, Prince An took a look and said, "You'll start to drool soon."
Kong Qing closed his mouth and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry to have made you all laugh. I've never seen anyone with such amazing martial arts skills. I'm surprised by what I've seen so rarely."
Jin Yuyao continued, "I have no grudges against Liao Ran. She must have someone behind the scenes trying to frame me. If we follow her, we should be able to find the person behind it."
Chen Qianhe said: "What if there is no clue on the 15th? And we don't know where Liangran is now."
Jin Yuyao said, "During this time, try to find out if Zhang Huai and Liang Ran have any private contact. Since Liang Ran agreed to this matter and it didn't work out this time, he must have a plan."
Wang Jingshan frowned and said, "The problem is that we have no idea what to do now. You've gambled too much this time."
Jin Yuyao said, "That's because things have reached a point where there's no other way. This way we can have some buffer time."
Prince An said, "You said that we are a room full of men and you, a woman, are allowed to stand before us. We won't know how to deal with ourselves in the future."
Jin Yuyao explained: "Your Highness, don't worry. I might be quite busy during this period. Besides making the potion, I might have to go out more often."
Prince An said, "Let Jingshan stay with you for the time being, otherwise it will be too unsafe for you to go out."
Jin Yuyao asked, "What about the prince? Zhan Feng and Li Feng have already been sent out."
Prince An said, "Don't worry, we still have Prefect Chen."
Jin Yuyao stood up and said, "There shouldn't be anything happening these days. I'll be out first then."
She stood up and went out, with Wang Jingshan following closely behind her.
Only Prince An and Chen Qianhe are in the room now.
Chen Qianhe said, "Your Highness, I think the people behind this want to cut off your left and right arms so that you can't accomplish the locust plague."
Prince An nodded. "So you've realized it too. Now we can only face the challenge head-on. Perhaps Doctor Jin is right. This is the only way to delay until we find the person behind the scenes. But he's just a clown. He won't put himself in the spotlight."
Chen Qianhe said: "Even if it severely damages those ants, it is worth it."
Prince An laughed sarcastically, "I had thought of revenge a long time ago. I never thought my fifth brother really didn't care about the lives of ordinary people, and wouldn't even let a woman go."
"They must be afraid that Doctor Jin will really control the locusts, and that they'll have enough food to make things difficult for them."
Prince An said, "We have to be more careful from now on. You should transfer some people from other places. If chaos breaks out, we might not have enough manpower."
Chen Qianhe nodded.
Jin Yuyao continued to prepare the medicinal herbs. After she finished, she wanted to go out and take a look.
Wang Jingshan saw Jin Yuyao wanted to go out and asked, "Do you want to go out?"
Jin Yuyao said, "I'm going out for a walk to check on the locust situation, or you'll really want me dead in half a month."
Wang Jingshan said, "What are you talking about? Of course I hope you are safe and sound."
The two walked on the street. Now people were in good order. The locust harvesting period had lasted for several days. People had food, and there were fewer people queuing for porridge.
The two walked to the foot of the mountain and saw that someone was also spreading pesticides.
Jin Yuyao has been thinking about this these days. It may not be possible to rely on herself and the people in the county government. She has to let people take action on their own.
Now people just avoid Jin Yuyao when they see her.
There are indeed fewer locusts.
Wang Jingshan was puzzled and said, "Isn't it almost completely under control? Then why do they still say that about you?"
The people behind this must have wanted to kill me because they saw the quick results. They won't let the locusts disappear so quickly.
Wang Jingshan was a straightforward person and said, "How could there be such a bad person?"
Jin Yuyao didn't say anything. She must be Prince An's enemy.
As the two were walking on the road, an old woman saw Jin Yuyao and started to curse: "You are that bitch, right? It's you who brought the locust plague to our place. We don't welcome you here. Get out of here as soon as possible. The farther away the better."
Wang Jingshan looked at the old woman with fiery eyes.
He took two steps forward fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "What did you say? Say it again, and try again."
Jin Yuyao grabbed his arm and said, "Jingshan, don't be impulsive. If you really scare her, the people behind this will be able to make a big fuss."
