After traveling for another two days, I arrived in Sucheng. The weather gradually became hotter. At Xiangwu, it would be unbearable for the cabin. Mei'er was afraid of heat. There were no conditions on the boat as the royal palace, so she could use ice to cool down. Mei'er had to take a bath to cool down and she had to wash several times a day.

After finally approaching the shore, Mei'er and Xiao Jin got off the boat. In the afternoon, the heat wave in the air rushed towards him, and it was hot along the throat and the internal organs. Even the gasps felt stuffy.

As soon as he arrived in Sucheng, Xiao Jin ordered not to speak up, so he was not prepared at all. Xiao Jin ordered people to call a carriage and help Mei'er, Aqu, Xianglan and other female family members into the car, and followed everyone to the inn where they were staying.

Sucheng is indeed a rich water town. There are many ancient buildings in the city, and there are endless business trips.

The inn environment is very good. When Mei'er returned to her room, the first thing she did was to soak in water and wash it, then she changed into refreshing clothes and went downstairs.

After everything was cleaned up, the people rushed to the banquet, flying in the sky and running on the ground, and all kinds of dishes were as good as those in the capital. Everyone, regardless of the master or servant, sat together and had a good meal.

After dinner, Xiao Jin discussed political affairs with everyone in the outer room. Mei'er returned to the room and lay on the bed to rest.

She was about to fall asleep when she heard a sound outside.

A spy rushed in and saw Xiao Jin and didn't even bother to wipe it. He replied, "Report to the prince, the people were attacked in the Baihualing area two days ago and the entire army was destroyed."

The spy mentioned was the group of people who continued to walk on the dry road when they changed to the water route. The enemy did not expect that Xiao Jin would escape from the shell and block the group of people as usual. As expected by Xiao Jin, these were all top experts, and they should not have been wiped out.

"Not a living thing left?"

The spy replied: "No, and according to on-site investigation, many of the dead had scars that were pecked by birds and beasts, and their deaths were extremely miserable."

The scars left by birds and beasts?

The person who intercepted the killing should not be the people in the army, could it be sent by Concubine Li and Xiao Mu, but it seemed to be done by the Jianghu sects? Xiao Jin had already mastered the situation of the major sects in the Jianghu sects, and had never heard of any sect that could tame beasts. Xiao Jin was suspicious and looked at Rong Ben.

Rong Ben shook his head, "I have never heard of any sect in the world that can understand this technique."

That was what De Li did. Can Li was so fierce that Xiao Jin had to be more vigilant.

"Collection of evidence of the Suzhou governor's corruption and abuse of power as soon as possible. After dealing with it here, we will go to Qiongzhou."

Rong Ben took the order and left.

She heard the conversation between Mei'er and Xiao Jin and others outside. The guards were all top experts in the interior. She heard that they were all intercepted and killed. Her heart was a little shocked. If Xiao Jin had not prepared for the future, then they would have no idea where they would have been buried at this moment.

After everyone left, Xiao Jin returned to the inner room and saw Mei'er's expression was abnormal and there were tears on her face. He asked in a slightest question: "What's wrong with you? You feel uncomfortable?"

Mei'er shook her head, hugged Xiao Jin tightly, and murmured, "I'm afraid."

Xiao Jin guessed that she had heard the conversation between them outside just now, and comforted her with a smile: "It's okay, I have everything. I will protect you, don't be afraid."

Mei'er raised her head and looked at Xiao Jin and said, "I'm not afraid of being in danger, but I'm just afraid that you are in danger."

Xiao Jin replied carelessly: "What are you going to do? The person in this world who can move me has not been born yet."

Mei'er was worried, "You have to be careful when Canli is so fierce."

Xiao Jin pinched her little nose, "Don't worry, these mobs are not your husband's opponent."

The two were talking, and they heard the sound of gongs and drums outside, and it was not lively. The inn was leaning against the main street. Meier lay down on the window and saw that the wedding team almost covered half of the street. The servants carrying the betrothal gifts were overwhelming with dozens of people. This show was no less than that of the middle-aged families in Beijing.

It seems that the ceremonial guards do not look like officials, "This must be a wealthy man who gets married, is it so stylish?"

Xiao Jin came over and couldn't help but be slightly surprised when he saw this scene.

The waiter came in to deliver tea. When he saw the two of them watching the fun in front of the window, he smiled and asked, "This is the butler who takes concubines at the governor's mansion in this city, and it's lively."

Mei'er said in surprise: "In such a situation, is it actually a housekeeper in the governor's mansion to take a concubine?"

The waiter sneer said, "What is this? The noble man came from outside, you will only see the world if you meet the governor and take a concubine."

Xiao Jin stood in front of the window, his face looked particularly ugly.

In the evening, Rong Ben brought a few people to meet Xiao Jin. These people were all insiders who were placed in Sucheng half a year ago. When Xiao Jin saw Xiao Jin handed over the corrupt account book of the governor of Sucheng that they secretly found. Xiao Jin took the thick account book and flipped a few pages.

"The money embezzled by the governor of Sucheng is probably far more than that. Rong Ben, you will take my waist card and directly arrest the governor Wang to the prison tomorrow. You should personally watch the torture and force confession, and you must let him spit out all the money he has greedy."

"Prince, is it a bit inappropriate to do this? If it is passed to Princess Duanjing..."

How could ordinary people get this fat and quenchyme? This governor Wang is the cousin of Princess Duan Jing's son-in-law Duan Guoguo. He secretly checked it and let him spit out some oil. He would just put him in a prison and punish him for serving him. This really did not care about the face of the eldest princess.

Xiao Jin waved his hand, "No problem, just do what you want."

Xiao Jin bowed and took the order and left.

The governor of the king had no idea that King Jin had come to Sucheng, and he had not known that he had already been targeted by him early on. He was also a royal relative, and he never even dreamed that he would be imprisoned and tortured.

Although it was in Sucheng, there was a confidant of the King of Jin who was sentenced to prison, so who dared to protect him? In half a day, the governor of the king lost half his life and vomited all the money he had embezzled for so many years.

But he was too greedy, so he knew the approximate number, and how could he remember clearly. Rong Ben ordered people to put the steward of the governor's mansion into a prison. When the slave saw that his master had fallen, he dared not hide it. He handed over all the details of the account books one by one. Rong Ben tried to check them one by one, and brought people to seal the money shop before he came back to report to Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin looked at the detailed account and said that the amount of corruption this guy embezzled over the years was almost equivalent to the tax revenue of the entire Dazhou six months. He ordered: "Transfer money back to the capital and deposit it in the national treasury, and all the money obtained was used to buy schools in Sucheng, open a clinic, and release the governor of the king. He was not allowed to exile to Lingnan."

Within two days, Xiao Jin resolutely investigated and prosecuted the governor of Sucheng. For a moment, everyone in Sucheng applauded.
