The refugees entered the city without any hindrance.
Gu Yundian was very happy.
Li Tongzhi, who made the suggestion that day, was also very cooperative.
There doesn't seem to be anyone behind the scenes.
Except for some local residents in Yuncheng who are a little dissatisfied.
But the arms can't twist the thighs, and they can't do anything even if they have objections.
After all, they are just ordinary people and do not have the courage to fight against the government.
These discordant voices were naturally ignored by Gu Yundian.
What he is doing now is a good thing.
"Let's celebrate tonight!"
Bu Yunling, the prefect of Yuncheng, smiled broadly. He looked at the crowd and said, "Everyone, I have prepared a lot of food for you today. Please be sure to show your respect!"
Everyone agreed.
Gu Yundian was in a happy mood.
Even if it is the most unpalatable dish, he will swallow it without hesitation.
Besides, the food here tastes very good.
"Everyone, I still need your support in Yuncheng from now on!" Bu Yunling raised his glass and said, "Come on, drink this first!"
Everyone moved in response.
After having enough wine and food, everyone dispersed.
…
Gu Yundian was very happy, as if everything was not that difficult.
It doesn't seem to matter if Hanzhi doesn't help him.
He can still thrive on his own.
Gu Yundian could see the refugees sitting together, drinking soup and eating flatbreads.
This restaurant was opened by his wife Feng Yuanfang.
The food here is very simple, only hot soup and flatbread.
But it's very cheap, only a penny a bowl.
A pie costs two cents apiece.
Although it is simple, it is cheap, and a mouthful of hot soup makes the refugees feel comfortable.
They have been hungry for a long time.
It tastes extra sweet now.
Gu Yundian stood at the corner, watching the refugees wolfing down the food and having a lot of silly fun.
He likes this feeling.
I like the feeling of others worshiping and envying myself.
He felt that he would be able to leave this hellish place soon.
He would be able to return to the capital by then. Gu Yundian felt particularly happy when he thought of this.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a commotion next to him. He looked up and saw a group of government officials rushing in, holding long guns and pointing directly at the group of refugees.
The refugees suddenly panicked.
"Today, a pair of jade bracelets were lost in Mr. Wang's house in the city. These are the refugees working in Mr. Wang's house." A government official shouted.
Immediately, several policemen rushed over and pushed the refugees to the ground.
The refugees struggled desperately, shouting: "It's unfair! We are unfairly accused!"
But the government officials ignored their cries for help and tied them up with ropes and escorted them back to the county government office.
After the refugees were taken away, calm returned to the restaurant.
Gu Yundian couldn't help but frown when he saw this.
He clearly heard what the government officials said just now.
Mr. Wang lost a pair of jade bracelets?
How could this matter have anything to do with those refugees?
Could it be that these refugees really have dirty hands and feet?
It may be true.
Gu Yundian thought of the refugees fighting for food.
It's so crazy to see even a little bit of food.
If you see those gold and silver treasures, why don’t you go crazy!
Thinking of this, Gu Yundian suddenly slapped his head.
Unfortunately, there are many refugees in his family.
Gu Yundian hurried back home.
After taking inventory of the things at home, there was nothing missing, and then I breathed a sigh of relief.
He only had so little money.
If it were gone, how would we live like this?
"Gu Yundian, what are you doing? I heard my servant say, you were just watching the policemen arresting the refugees on the street.
This is clearly unjust. As an official of Yuncheng and the Marquis of the Sheng Dynasty, you don't care about this matter. "
Feng Yuanfang cursed at Gu Yundian angrily.
She was really angry.
"How do I know what's going on?" Gu Yundian was also very angry: "Besides, those police officers were not wrong! What if there are really dirty hands and feet among the refugees, how can I intervene? "
This matter involves a lot, and if they act rashly, they will definitely cause trouble.
He originally allowed refugees to enter the city, but the people in Yuncheng were already very dissatisfied with him.
If he gets involved in this matter again, it will be even worse.
So he didn't dare to mess around at all.
Feng Yuanfang stared: "If you don't care about this matter, these refugees will definitely have no way of living. If they don't have these jobs, they won't make money, and they will have no choice but to starve to death..."
"If you starve to death, just starve to death." Gu Yundian shook his head helplessly: "What do you want me to do?"
Feng Yuanfang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You are the one who allowed the refugees to enter the city, right? When they smear the refugees, they are smearing you. Why don't you understand the truth?"
Gu Yundian nodded. He felt that what Feng Yuanfang said made sense, but wasn't it Feng Yuanfang who forced him to let the refugees enter the city?
Now if something goes wrong, the blame will be placed entirely on his head.
"Go to the government office immediately." Feng Yuanfang said: "Tell the prefect about this matter and let the prefect investigate the case thoroughly."
Gu Yundian frowned and asked, "Isn't this inappropriate?"
Gu Yundian didn't want to go to the prefect again, but if he did nothing and the blame was placed on him, his future might be ruined.
"What's wrong!" Feng Yuanfang yelled angrily: "Since they have framed you, if you don't do anything, you will just sit back and wait for death."
Gu Yundian gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."
Feng Yuanfang then smiled and said: "It should have been like this a long time ago. Don't worry, the prefect will notarize and handle this matter."
…
In the early morning of the next day, Gu Yundian came to see the prefect early in the morning.
After hearing Gu Yundian's words, Bu Yunling frowned and said to Gu Yundian: "Master Hou, originally you were the best person to investigate this case thoroughly.
such a pity! Too many people have written to complain about you recently.
They said that your wife made a lot of money by opening a restaurant by taking advantage of the refugees to come to the city. "
At this point, Bu Yunling paused. He looked at Gu Yundian, as if waiting for his next reaction.
Sure enough, Gu Yundian was suddenly heard facing Bu Yunling nervously. Asked: "Master Magistrate, who filed these complaints?"
Bu Yunling smiled lightly and replied: "Who else could it be! Of course it's those people from Yuncheng headed by the Li family!"
After he finished speaking, he continued: "Master Hou, don't blame me. There is nothing I can do!
Now the people of Yuncheng have been incited, and they are writing to impeach you every day.
If you don't solve the case as soon as possible, I'm afraid that by then...
Oh, I'm afraid your reputation will be damaged by then, and it's likely to affect your career. "
Gu Yundian snorted coldly and left angrily.
Bu Yunling saw Gu Yundian's back and sighed.
He thought Gu Yundian would come to him last night to discuss the matter.
