Then he said with confidence: "And even if they have any dissatisfaction, the Xiaguan has already greeted them as soon as possible and given all the etiquettes that should be given. The Xiaguan left because the Xiaguan still has to be busy. It is impossible to delay the affairs of the people for the sake of the two of them, right? If so, the one who should be included in the book should be King Jing."

The prefect sat upright slowly, and the judge hurriedly supported him.

The prefect looked at him and said with satisfaction: "Well, you are still smart. Your Majesty doesn't like these two. If we go up and go, we will ask for trouble."

"The lower official is taught!" The judge said with a smile.

The prefect thought for a while and said, "Send a few people to watch them, don't be charged with being incompetent.

By the way, let’s see if they are just coming to travel around the mountains and rivers. At that time, we can explain it to Lord Zuo.”

"Yes, I'll make arrangements now."

After giving the order, the prefect lay down again and asked the maids to continue serving him.

What a good thing about Prince Jing and Princess Jing, what are you doing here? It disturbs him and enjoys life, which is annoying.

The two of them didn't know that, and these words turned around and fell into the ears of Sheng Qingyuan and Shen Zhao.

Listening to Xuan Yu's report to the two of them, Shen Zhao's face was cold: "I don't know. It turns out that a prefect can be so leisurely."

Yu Ying chuckled and said sarcastically: "No? You will enjoy life more than us."

"But if the people of Qingcheng think so, they can't say it." Shen Zhao said with a slightly cold look on his eyes.

After a while, Xuan Yi came back and handed over the information he had found before to Shen Zhao, saying, "Prince, this is the current situation of the people of Qingcheng."

Shen Zhao took the information and took a look. The aura around her became colder: "What a good parent official."

Sheng Qingyuan also took a look, and anger rose in his heart.

Qingcheng is not very peaceful. From time to time, some thieves harassed the people, but Qingcheng's officers, soldiers and yamen runners never caught the thief. They finally caught it once, so they just wanted to beat a few people and let them go.

Those who were released held a grudge against the people who reported themselves, and then took even more crazier revenge, so that when the people were stolen again in the future, they would no longer dare to report to the officials.

In addition, Qingcheng's tax revenue is higher than that of other places.

Someone has asked about taxation, and even tried to report this to higher-level yamen in the capital.

But in the end, there was no accident or success, and the people who reported it were said that they had never appeared in Qingcheng again.

It is unknown whether it was because it went to another place after leaving the capital or something unexpected happened.

In general, the people in Qingcheng did not live well, but everyone dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out.

"Since they dare not speak, give them some courage." Shen Zhao said calmly.

"Yes." Xuanyu responded.

Sheng Qingyuan looked at the paper, took a deep breath, tried hard to suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart, and said to Shen Zhao: "Go out and take a walk, so that he can understand the current situation of Qingcheng more clearly."

"Um."

Sheng Qingyuan looked at their clothes and said, "I have to change into some more ordinary clothes."

Then he said to Xuan Yu: "Take people staring at the prefect. If someone wants to get close to reveal our identities, find a way to lure them away."c

"yes."

The two changed into ordinary clothes, and then leisurely, pretending to be an ordinary couple from another place to come for fun.

Looking at the main street, Qingcheng is thriving, with many people in every shop.

However, when these people went to the shop, their expressions were very dull.

It looks like I have received some task, so I must go into the shop and take a walk around.

Sheng Qingyuan did not choose a larger restaurant, but chose a small stall at the entrance of the alley, sat down with Shen Zhao, and asked him, "Waiter, what are you doing now?"

The waiter said, "Do you want to eat the braised noodles?"

Sheng Qingyuan smiled gently and said, "Then please give me two bowls of braised noodles."

"Okay! Please wait, please wait," the waiter said happily.

The hot braised noodles were prepared quickly for two nights. The ingredients were very good and the taste was quite good.

When he paid after eating, he heard the price was quite low, Sheng Qingyuan was a little surprised: "Two bowls of such a large bowl of braised noodles are so cheap?"

After looking around, there was no one coming to the stall. He said curiously: "It's so delicious and so cost-effective, why are there no one?"

The owner of the stall goes

He came over and said helplessly: "No matter how cheap the ones outside are, they are not as good as those cooked at home. Now everyone has no spare money on hand."

As he said that, the boss sighed again.

Shen Zhao looked at the lively main street outside and asked in confusion: "But we just came from the main street and passed by several restaurants with very nice decorations. There were many people inside. Don't the people in the city like to eat noodles?"

The waiter said frankly: "If so, how can those people be willing to go? This is the government's request."

"Ah Da!" The boss frowned and scolded.

The waiter curled his lips and said with some dissatisfaction: "It's true. Everyone has no money, but they are forced to go to those restaurants to have dinner. If you have a meal in those places, it's enough for half a month's worth of food at home."

Shen Zhao continued to ask, "Why must the government ask the people in the city to go to those restaurants for dinner?"

The boss said, "Well, two guests, don't listen to this guy's nonsense, that's not the case."

The boss tried hard to wink Xiaoer, but Xiaoer had already been full of dissatisfaction: "Even if you glar at me, I will say it. They dare to do it. Are they still afraid of people saying it?"

"you……"

The waiter continued, "I heard that two noble people will come from the capital these days, so in order to make these two noble people like them, I can only pretend to be very lively."

"Is this meaningful?" Sheng Qingyuan couldn't help asking.

"Look, if Qingcheng is as deserted as this alley, then what would those two nobles from the capital think of our prefect? ​​So, for the black hats on his head, we can only do these superficial skills."

"Ah Da! Enough, go back quickly." The boss scolded, and then said to Sheng Qingyuan and Shen Zhao apologetically: "The two guests are really embarrassed. They are just a child's character and are prone to listening to wind and rain. He will take some rumors everywhere seriously. Don't take them seriously, both guests should not take them to heart."

Sheng Qingyuan smiled faintly and said, "No, I think this little brother is just outspoken."

The waiter couldn't help but stressed, "I'm telling the truth."

"Enough, go back!" The boss scolded again.

Then, the boss said to them with apologies, "Two guests, I'm really embarrassed. I still have some things at home, so I can't keep the two guests."

"We disturbed." Chen Zhao said in a low voice.

Put down the silver on the table and left the stall.

"Uncle, why don't you let me continue talking?!" The waiter said very dissatisfied.

The boss glared at him, "Do you know who the other party is? If you continue talking, you know what you are talking about? If the prefect hears it, you'll wait to go in and squat in the prison!"

The waiter said indignantly, "I didn't talk nonsense, this is something that the whole Qingcheng knows."
