Chapter 604 Unable to Recognize Xie Minmin
Lin Feng took a look at her dress, but he didn't recognize that the person in front of him was Xie Minmin. Perhaps over time he had already forgotten about this little princess of Prince Kang's mansion.
However, Xie Minmin knew him and she didn't dare to confront him head-on.
"Call out the living Bodhisattva here so that I can pay my respects to her. If I really offend the Bodhisattva, I will apologize to her. If you dare to play tricks and deceive people, I will report you to the police." Lin Feng ignored all the obstructions and walked straight in.
Xue Nu and Xie Minmin exchanged glances, and Xue Nu said, "Sir, if you want to see Madam Miaoyin, please tell me earlier. I will go and ask Madam Miaoyin to come out right away. We haven't done anything bad, so why should we report it to the police?"
Soon Xue Nu also called out a veiled woman, "Sir, if you have any questions about Buddhism, please ask as soon as possible!"
Lin Feng pulled off the woman's veil, revealing an ordinary and unremarkable face. He said to his men, "Go in and search."
Xue Nu called on their men to attack and said coldly, "What do you want to do? If you continue to be rude, we will report you to the police."
Xie Minmin said: "Xue Nu, make way and let them search." It is not appropriate to conflict with them now.
Xue Nu reluctantly stepped aside.
After a while, they still didn't find Bai Yuhan.
Lin Feng glanced at Xie Minmin, who was holding a sword in her hand. She said, "You have searched and found, and if you continue to be so presumptuous, I will not be polite."
At this time, Lin Feng's people ran up, leaned close to his ear and whispered something, and he turned around and went downstairs.
Lin Feng walked halfway and mocked, "It's a waste of talent for you girls to dress up as disciples of Guanyin Bodhisattva. You should all become disciples of Zhong Kui. With your ugly looks, you are more suitable to fight ghosts and exorcise evil spirits."
"Why don't you go and get rid of the evil spirits? The ghosts will be scared to death by you." Xie Minmin was so angry about being called ugly: "You are the ugly one, uglier than a pig..."
After Lin Feng left, Xue Nu said worriedly, "Fortunately, she escaped on her own. We can't live here anymore. Let's leave first and make plans later."
"You guys continue to stay here and accompany Madam Miaoyin to continue to talk about Buddhist scriptures." Xie Minmin said, "They dare not do anything to you."

Xie Shang and Jiang Fenghua looked around but couldn't find anyone. Lin Feng also came over and said, "There's no one upstairs either. It looks like they really ran away. They all have weapons. I don't know where they came from."
Jiang Fenghua said: "If she escaped, she should not have gone far. She is unfamiliar with this place. Let's look for her nearby."
Xie Shang said: "Lin Feng and his men should continue to search. Since she can't walk far, she should be nearby."
Jiang Fenghua and Xie Shang left Wangyue Tower again. She looked upstairs and saw a woman with a veil covering her face, with only a pair of eyes showing, looking at them. These eyes looked familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere.
The next moment the masked woman disappeared into the corridor again.
Xie Shang took Jiang Fenghua to the street and saw someone watching them in the dark.
Jiang Fenghua also saw a sneaky figure not far away, "Is it Prefect Fan's people?"
"That should be the case. He may not trust us." Xie Shang led Jiang Fenghua to the carriage. "We have been looking for him for so long but still haven't found him. Let's go back to the inn first. We have an important guest to meet tonight."
-
Prefect Fan also learned the whereabouts of Xie Shang and Jiang Fenghua from the yamen runners. He did not dare to be careless, as it was the first time he had seen such a generous businessman.
At this time, a masked man in black quietly slipped into his study, "Master Fan, everyone else is fine."
Vander asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
"Master Fan has a very short memory. I haven't seen you for just a few months, and you've forgotten me."
"Are you Master Yun?" Fan De quickly stood up from his seat, his attitude becoming more respectful. "The money has been given to Master Yun. Can you please let my family members go back?"
"Are you calling them back to suffer with you? They are doing very well, with food and clothing, and they lack nothing." He added, "I heard that a wealthy businessman came to the government office today to donate food."
"How did you know, sir?" Fan De asked again, "I am also worried that the man did not donate any food. If the court knew that the disaster in Qingzhou was not alleviated but became more and more serious, my life would be over."
"That person is indeed not here to donate grain, but an official from the capital. If he comes again, you must not let him go. Otherwise, if people know that Master Fan embezzled the relief money, your life will really be over."
Fan De was so scared that he knelt on the ground, "What does Master Yun want to do? Not all the silver went into my pocket."
He said directly, "You go and do two things. First, open the city gate to let the refugees in. Second, have someone go to the inn to catch the people and put them in jail."
"If we let the victims enter the city and let them pass through Qingzhou, Qingzhou City will be in chaos." Fan De said again: "What good will it do us if this incident gets out of hand? What exactly do you want to do, Master Yun? You get the money, but if the incident reaches the imperial city, I will be dead."
"The more chaos you make, the better. I promise you won't die."
"If the emperor finds out, I'll be dead, and my family will die too." Fan De was a little angry. "Those rumors in the city were spread by Master Yun? How dare you spread rumors about the emperor! You don't want to live, but I don't want to die either!"
Xie Yun said calmly, "Your family has already arrived in the northwest and is being protected by Prince Kang's mansion, so you won't die. Whether I live or die is not decided by the emperor, but by me. Do you understand?"
After hearing this, Fan De's pupils changed color with fear, "Are you from Prince Kang's mansion? Who are you?" Who in this world can be more powerful than the emperor!
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is who you belong to, Magistrate Fan." Xie Yun said directly, "Prince Kang has always admired Lord Fan, and you didn't disappoint him this time. Remember, as long as you are obedient, your family will be safe."
“I…” Fan De was a court official, so he should naturally be the emperor’s man.
"Prefect Fan is a smart man. He has done a lot of corruption and bribery, but he has never been found out. He even pretends to be poor and destitute. When you go to the northwest in the future, Prince Kang will not let you suffer like this."
Fan De knew that if the court really investigated, he would have to keep his mouth shut. Wouldn't letting the disaster victims make a fuss just inform the world that Qingzhou had been hit by a disaster? If the court investigated the accounts, it would only find him.
If he doesn't run away now, is he waiting for the emperor to send someone to capture him?
"I will go to the northwest with you and ask you to save my life." Fan De knelt on the ground.
"After you finish the next things, I will send someone to pick you up to reunite with your family." After he said that, he left Magistrate Fan's house.
Fan De had sunken eyes and looked skinny. He had not had a good night's sleep since the drought in Qingzhou and the subsequent locust plague. The 500,000 taels of silver did not go into his pocket, but were divided up by him. He knew that he would die sooner or later.
Fan De called the housekeeper again, "Bandits have been discovered in Qingzhou City. Send soldiers to the inn to catch the thieves, and then have people open the city gates. I will open the granary to release grain for disaster relief."
The housekeeper was stunned. "Now? Where is the food supply in our warehouse?"
"Right now, just do as you are told and don't worry about anything else." Someone from the imperial court had arrived, and Fan De couldn't wait any longer.
