Chapter 85: Yunhua Spring Announcer

The third young master in the mansion was sent back from the countryside a few days ago. It was said that the third young master was seriously ill.

Only after he was sent to the house did he realize that he was sick or possessed by evil spirits.

The third young master makes trouble every night, saying that there is a ghost and that there is a ghost behind him.

She was so nagging that she had to fill the room with candles to feel safe.

But even though he was safe, he still couldn't sleep. He was thrashing about everywhere, saying that there was something behind his back.

The servants in the mansion are all watching. Ghost, where is the ghost?

"There's a ghost! A ghost! A ghost is behind me!"

"Do not kill me!"

Then there was a wave of people turning on their backs, and the backyard was almost set on fire.

Some of the tables and chairs were burned, and they moved to another room, even if someone was watching.

Zhou Mingyao returned home wearing official uniform and smelling of alcohol. He just wanted to ask how his brother was doing.

Suddenly, I heard a commotion in the backyard, accompanied by a man's roar.

"Right behind me! There's a ghost!"

"I'm going to kill this ghost, kill him!"

Zhou Mingyao rubbed his forehead helplessly, looking tired.

"Sir, the third master is ill again. Please be patient, sir." The housekeeper came up and said worriedly.

"I asked you to give him the tranquilizer, but did you?"

"After drinking it, I gave it to the third master, but the medicine didn't work, and the third master became even more noisy."

"Then give him more, give him a heavier dose, and let him rest for a while."

"The old man won't let me. He says that drinking this medicine will hurt his body, so he won't let the third master drink more."

Zhou Mingyao frowned even deeper after hearing this.

There were a lot of official duties in the yamen during the day, and he had to go drinking and socializing in the evening. He was so busy that he really didn't have time to worry about his younger brother.

"Go and clear out the room in front. I'll live in the front yard tonight." Zhou Mingyao said.

"It's Master."

After Yun Huachun confirmed that the petition was correct, he told his wife and daughter about the matter.

He was going to the Yamen to report the case, accusing Nawubao of robbing children in broad daylight.

"Dad, I support you!" Yuntao said happily.

Wan Hongmei also supported this matter, but said: "The Wubao family has a great cause, and I am afraid that if you file a lawsuit, you will be retaliated against."

"It's okay. Uncle Zhong told me that the White Dragon Envoy has been in Shao'an Mansion recently. They don't dare to do evil with the White Dragon Envoy here. What's more, we are refugees who have fled and have no intention of settling here. Let's go

If we go somewhere else and stay away, the Zhou family will not be able to retaliate against us if they want to retaliate in the future."

Yun Huachun said, where did his confidence come from? It naturally came from Uncle Zhong.

"The people in the village should also go and talk about it."

"It's natural."

Early the next morning, Yun Huachun told the villagers about the matter. If the people from the yamen came to summon him, he would need the villagers to testify for him.

Accompanied by Zhong Da, Yun Huachun beat the big drum of Shao'an Mansion Yamen.

The people in the yamen are also very busy at the moment, summarizing the important tasks for the whole year for the Bailongshi people to review.

Why is there someone playing drums outside now?

Shang Hongcheng is the prefect of Shao'an Prefecture. He has just poured tea for some of the White Dragon Envoys and accompanied them to count the cases of the past year.

He heard the loud beating of drums outside, and he couldn't even pretend not to hear it at this time.

Shang Hongcheng thought to himself that the drummer had better have something important to do. If he was disturbed over trivial matters, he would definitely slap that person dozens of times.

"Since Mr. Shang has something to do, let's go and take a look at the front first," said the young man sitting in the front seat wearing an ebony hairpin.

"Then I'll take my leave first. Lord Qi, if you have anything important to do, call me."

Qi Kun nodded gently, "Don't worry, sir."

Shang Hongcheng quietly left the house and closed the wooden door behind him.

Swinging up his sleeves, he walked quickly forward.

After ascending to the hall, Shang Hongcheng hurriedly took his seat and looked at Yun Huachun who was kneeling under the stage.

"Who is in the audience? What grievances do you want to redress?" Shang Hongcheng patted the wooden door and said.

Yun Huachun held the paper over his head with both hands and said, "Sir, Yun Huachun, a grassroots citizen, fled from the northwest. Unexpectedly, when passing by Shao'an Prefecture, the people in the fort actually robbed my children..."

Yun Huachun spoke slowly, still feeling uneasy in his heart.

Shang Hongcheng felt a headache when he heard about the refugees and Wubao in the northwest!

How did the refugees from the northwest end up here?

No matter how far we go, we should never come to Shao'an! It's so far away!

There are only a few Wubao outside Shao'an Mansion, and they are all owned by powerful families.

In the past, it would have ended without a problem, or some money would have been lost, but now...

However, the White Dragon Envoy is here!

I chose the time when the White Dragon Envoy was around!

Shang Hongcheng looked at Yun Huachun and felt inexplicably unhappy. It was not good for these refugees to go anywhere. They came all the way from the northwest to cause trouble for him!

Shang Hongcheng felt his chest was congested.

When the person below handed over the paper, he was a little surprised for a while looking at the words on it, and his attention instantly shifted to the content of the paper.

"You said that the owner of this Wubao robbed you ten days ago. Why did you come to report the crime today?"

"There is only one pleading, but what personal and material evidence are there?" Shang Hongcheng asked one by one.

Yun Huachun shook his head, "Sir, we are refugees. We fled here in a hurry and felt very uneasy."

"It took a few days to walk from Nawubao to Shao'an Mansion, and a few more days to settle down, so I came to report the case today."

"Although there is no physical evidence, I have witnesses. There are people from a village who fled with me. The people in the village are all my witnesses." Yun Huachun said, his knees hurting from his knees.

"Go check this Wubao and this group of refugees..." Shang Hongcheng ordered the people below.

"It's my lord."

During the intermission to collect evidence, Yun Huachun stood in the front yard of the Yamen, watching the people coming and going, but no one paid him any attention.

Everyone seems to be very busy.

"Uncle Zhong, how do you think the Zhou family will react?" Yun Huachun approached Zhong Da and asked.

"Zhou Tongxuan should be in the Yamen, and the case will reach his ears in a while."

"Yun Xiucai, don't worry." Zhong Da said, smiling slightly.

Yun Huachun began to feel helpless. Zhou Tongpuan immediately knew that this matter had something to do with his family. Does this make him worried or not?

"Sir, Nawubao is the old residence of Master Tongpan." The master who had just found out about this hurriedly ran to Shang Hongcheng.

Shang Hongcheng almost lost his grip on the teacup in his hand.

This matter is big or small, especially since there are a bunch of White Dragon Envoys in the backyard.

"You go and talk to Zhou Tongxuan."

"It's my lord."

The master hurriedly went to Zhou Mingyao's small courtyard again.

Zhou Mingyao was not in a hurry after hearing the news from the people below.

"It's just a group of refugees, why should the prefect be so panicked?" Zhou Mingyao stood up from the case with his hands behind his back.

"What the magistrate means is that this matter should be reported to the public in front of Bailongshi. Please make preparations for it, Lord Zhou."
