Chapter 100
After the sky gradually faded, Cheng Chumo rushed back with a dark blue face.
"Young Master, you guessed it right. According to the results of our investigation, the officials here have always maintained unclear relationships with the robbers around them, and even the local officials were brought up by the robbers."
Cheng Chumo lowered his voice and looked very solemn. After investigation, he realized that he had considered things too simply before.
"Why do you say that?"
Li Zhi also knew that this place was not suitable for talking about such topics. After asking lightly, he walked directly to the clearings in the distance.
Cheng Chumo followed Li Zhi and told the results of his investigation with the guards in a scattered manner.
The people of Wenshui County learned from the mouths that as long as they are in Wenshui County, they are absolutely safe. They are called the robbers who fear the power of the court, but once they leave Wenshui County, no matter which way they take, they will definitely encounter robbers.
Before Li Zhi could speak again, Wu Meiniang moved her lotus step towards the two of them, which made Li Zhi's eyes lit up.
When we first met, she was covered in rags and dirty faces, and she could not tell her true face at all. Now, with his care, after some cleaning, her true face was revealed.
Her clear skin, beautiful eyes, long eyelashes, delicate facial features, and the water droplets that fell down with her hair, her every move could not help but touch his heartstrings.
Her young age has proved that she is a peerless beauty. You can imagine how beautiful she will be in a few years.
No wonder in history, even though she was a few years older than herself, she was still obsessed with it.
Perhaps because of the hardships of life, her delicate body was extremely thin at this moment, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.
"The great kindness of the young master made Mei Niang unable to repay her. She was willing to follow her and be a slave and a servant, without any complaints."
When he arrived in front of Li Zhi, Wu Meiniang slowly knelt down. Although she felt unwilling to accept her pretty face, she lowered her head to cover it up.
Cheng Chumo's eyes were straightened. He never dreamed that the little beggar saved by His Highness was actually a girl, and she was such a beautiful beauty, which really made a lot of money.
Ignoring Cheng Chumo with a look of pig brother, Li Zhi just glanced at her and said lightly: "Since I am willing to help you, it's not that you can repay your kindness. Don't show off your cleverness in front of me. This is the first and last time, do you understand?"
If it were someone else, I would be moved when I heard Wu Meiniang's words and would not think about anything else at all.
But who is Li Zhi? He is a time traveler. He has a lot of information about her. With her previous identity, she has fallen to this point. How could she be willing to be a maid for her?
Especially when the two sisters encounter this time, even their lives have become a problem. When they meet him at this time, they undoubtedly see hope. So she was forced to do this in order for the two sisters to live a stable life.
But he was not the real Li Zhi, and he would not give up everything about himself for the sake of beauty. So he had to hit her, not because he didn't like her intelligence, but because he didn't like her using such cleverness on himself.
After hearing Li Zhi's words, Wu Meiniang suddenly looked up and a hint of panic appeared on her cheeks. She never expected that her thoughts would be seen through by someone younger than her.
"My grandmother knows her mistake, I hope the young master will forgive her for her crime!"
She was really afraid that the two sisters would be kicked out again, so she hurriedly bowed.
"Get up! Your sister needs some care and needs more care. If you need anything, come to me at any time."
Li Zhiyun waved his hand calmly, without any intention of pursuing her.
"Thank you, Mr. Mei Niang!"
After politely celebrating Xiao Zhengtai again, he got up and left quickly.
"Gurl!"
Watching Wu Meiniang leave, Cheng Chumo couldn't help swallowing, as if he had thrown away the peerless delicacy.
On the way back, Wu Meiniang frowned. It was hard to imagine how a child could have such a strong stance. The momentum of being uneven and powerful even surpassing adults. It was hard to imagine what kind of family it would take to cultivate such a child.
"It's a shameless look."
Li Zhi said angrily, this foolish guy can't move when he sees the beauty.
What's more, can you get involved with this person?
This is a famous flower. If this foolish product was not tall, he would have really wanted to slap Cheng Chumo hard on the head.
"Haven...Your Highness!"
After coming back to his senses, Cheng Chumo was very embarrassed, and his dark face suddenly turned purple.
"How is the surrounding forces investigating? Does it match the one Zuo Bin said?"
Li Zhi asked again and went back to the topic just now.
"What is Your Highness referring to?"
Cheng Chumo was stunned and looked at him in confusion.
"Robbery of wealth, kill people!"
Seeing his virtue, Li Zhi's face turned dark and he said angrily.
"It's basically true. Many local people have been killed. However, according to the information they have inquired, these guys know how to keep up with me. As long as they cooperate, they will be safe. Only those who compete with them will be killed. Therefore, the people here have basically accepted their fate and have compromised against the robbers."
After throwing out the illusory things in his mind, Cheng Chumo said with a serious look on his face, and a look of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes.
"Interestingly, the rampant robbers here have been recognized."
After Li Zhi nodded slightly, a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.
"Young Master, what should we do next? Will we continue to inquire about the news?"
After secretly sweeping around, Cheng Chumo lowered his voice and asked.
"No need, what you should know is almost done. Going to inquire is just a waste of time."
Li Zhi shook his head slowly, stretched out a finger to gently touch his eyebrows, and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhengtai suddenly opened his eyes and ordered Cheng Chumo: "Take a token tomorrow and take a small team of guards to the yamen to stay for a few days, don't say we are bringing troops here."
"How many days will I stay in the yamen?"
Cheng Chumo scratched his head with confusion, not knowing what the little guy was thinking about.
"It is an undecided fact that officials and bandits here are colluding together. It is impossible to annihilate them in one fell swoop. You just a small group of people will not let them be wary. If you eat, drink and play for a few days, they will completely let go of their guard. At that time, it should not be difficult to know something."
Li Zhi looked at Cheng Chumo with a serious face. He was really worried that this stupid guy would ruin his big deal.
"Young Master, your trick is really amazing. I can also say that when I came, I encountered some people who were blind and damaged many people. I used the people from the court to appease the robbers."
