Chapter 237 Unlucky Su Yi

In the morning of the next morning, Emperor Jingyong suddenly issued an imperial edict, which caught the officials who went to court by surprise.

“Soil quality improvement is related to people’s livelihood and cannot be delayed.

From now on, the county magistrates of nearby counties in coastal counties and the prefect of Yizhou Prefecture have fully cooperated with the coastal county magistrates in opening water canals and plowing fields.

If the work is not completed before July, all workers will be dismissed and investigated."

Emperor Jingyong was acting more and more vigorously now. As soon as he asked Fu Sheng to read out his decree, he summoned Su Yi with his back facing backward.

In the afternoon of that day, Su Yi rushed to Yizhou Mansion under the escort of Mu Si.

Mu Si is not just escorting Su Yi this time, he also has other tasks.

After much deliberation, he gave the iron ore distribution map that Su Mo had given him to Emperor Jingyong, along with the letter.

Emperor Jingyong was silent for a long time, and finally handed over the matter to Long Xiaowei. His attitude was very clear, and he wanted to investigate strictly.

Seeing that he had made the right move, Mu Si breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking about the injury on his butt, he thought about using the excuse of recuperation to rest for a while, and secretly went to Luoshan Village to find his boss.

Who would have known that just a few days later, Emperor Jingyong summoned him and asked him to escort Su Yi to Yaozhou Mansion in person, and after he was delivered, he would go and act with the Long Xiao Guards.

Mu Si was stunned when he heard the news, and even after thinking about it, he didn't know what Emperor Jing Yong had in mind.

But he couldn't make the decision himself. He could only follow Emperor Jingyong's arrangements.

Moreover, it is not a bad thing for him to have a hand in the iron ore matter. At least he can get some information. When the boss comes back in the future, he can also report something.

After all, this matter has been on the boss's mind for a long time. If he handles it well, his boss will definitely appreciate him.

Mu Si thought about it, feeling extremely excited. He wished he could grow wings and fly to Yizhou Mansion that day, and then set off to join Long Xiaowei.

He followed Gu Qinhan on errands all year round, and the longest time he spent on horseback was more than half a month without getting off the horse. When he was hungry, he would eat the dry buns in his bag, and when he was thirsty, he would drink water from the canteen on his waist.

At most, after arriving at the official post station, you can go to the royal room, and then ask the post soldiers inside to fetch water and prepare dry food, then pick them up and leave.

He knew how to gallop, and he didn't feel tired at all, but Su Yi suffered.

Su Yi was a civil servant and couldn't ride a horse, so he naturally sat in a carriage.

The groom was assigned by the higher-ups, and he drove the horse at the same speed as Mu Si. He was obviously walking on an official road, but it felt like he was walking on a mountain road.

The bumpy ride made Su Yi feel like his old bones were about to fall apart.

When he arrived at the official post station, Mu Si went to the palace and asked the postman to feed the horse.

The outfit of the Black Armored Guards is quite iconic. Furthermore, they are always on the move, and many of the postmen in the official posts do not need to read the official documents and just follow orders.

Seeing that it finally stopped, Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of his weak legs, he rolled and crawled to the side, opened the curtain and was about to get off the carriage.

If the groom hadn't been quick to help him, he would have fallen off.

"Hurry...help me in quickly. Let the postman clean up the room and come out to get some hot water and food."

Su Yike only dared to get off the carriage while Mu Si had gone to Gong's room before he came back.

As long as he went in and opened a room to rest, Mu Si naturally couldn't force him to leave. He was an old man and wanted to live for a few more years.

The groom didn't know what Su Yi was thinking, but seeing his anxious expression, he quickly helped him in and gave orders to the postmen at the inn as he said.

When the postman saw that they were with the black-armored guards, he didn't insist on asking Su Yi to bring out the documents. He quickly made room in the upper room and soon sent hot water and food.

When Mu Si came back and found that the person was missing, he asked the postman to ask, and his face suddenly darkened.

The name of this frail scholar was not for nothing. He had only gone so far before he could no longer hold on.

But since everyone was already staying, he couldn't go in, pick them out, and throw them into the carriage.

Mu Si had a sullen face and asked the postman where Su Yi lived. He didn't knock on the door after passing by and just opened the door and went in.

Su Yi was drinking soup at the moment. He took a sip of chicken soup from the bowl and felt comfortable all over.

While he was enjoying himself, he heard the sound of the door opening. He raised his head and met the cold eyes under Mu Si's mask.

Su Yi almost choked on the chicken soup.

He quickly put down the bowl and said with a guilty voice, "This chicken soup is very delicious. Come and try it."

Mu Si glanced at him and then looked around the room. He saw a steaming wooden barrel standing aside. He looked at Su Yi's slightly damp hair on his forehead and immediately understood that this old guy might have wiped himself.

.

I would actually enjoy it.

Mu Si was quite scary when he had a straight face, "Mr. Su, we have to hurry. Now that you have rested, it's time for us to set off."

Su Yi only felt that the chicken soup just now was delicious, but it was a bit bitter, so bitter that the facial features on his face were about to twist together.

"Not less than half an hour..."

After the remaining two words were still spoken, Mu Si heard a faint "Huh?"

Su Yi quickly shut up.

The last time I was on an errand, I was followed by Mu San, that smiling tiger with a smile on his face, which scared him to the point of having a heart problem.

This time when I went out, there was Mu Si next to me. He was like an iron man and didn't know how to understand his old bones at all.

Why is his life so miserable!

Su Yi burst into tears in his heart, thinking that the next time His Majesty arranged for the black-armored guards to escort him on a long trip, he would give up the burden.

The body and mind take turns suffering, how can it be so torturous?

Su Yi felt bitter in his heart and had to cater to Mu Si, "You're right, it's important to be in a hurry. Doing things for the Holy Lord, you can't miss this moment and a half of comfort."

Mu Si nodded with satisfaction, and the hostility in his body dissipated instantly. He held his sword and cupped his hands and said, "Don't waste food. Master Su, eat slowly. I will wait in my humble position."

The corners of Su Yi's mouth twitched, you've already said all the good things, what else can he say.

Besides, if you really want him to eat here slowly, then don’t take the sword!

Su Yi cursed in his heart, but didn't show it at all on his face. After Mu Si went out, he quickly took two mouthfuls of rice and drank some chicken soup.

This was the first time in so many years that he was in such a hurry to eat.

Within half a quarter of an hour, Su Yi came down from upstairs and got on the carriage neatly.

Mu Si was determined to continue at the previous speed, but thinking that there was a "weak" old man in the carriage, he still slowed down.

But even if he slowed down, it was still very fast for Su Yi.

Fortunately, they were fast and arrived at Yizhou Prefecture earlier than expected.

The prefect of Yaozhou and others had received the letter a long time ago, but they did not expect that Su Yi would arrive early. When they heard the announcement, the prefect was having breakfast.

Now that he was done, he didn't have time to think about eating, so he went to the side room without stopping, asked someone to bring him the official clothes and put them on, and then walked forward.

At the same time, he also asked his people to call the county magistrates from various counties.

Su Yi just got off the carriage, his face was so pale, he slumped on the chair, and he didn't even have the energy to drink the tea offered by the clerk.

Mu Si, however, remained energetic, standing behind Su Yi, really like his bodyguard.
