"What about eating? They live here, so they should eat, right? They can't wear rain hats when eating, right?"
Before Ying Zheng could speak, Wang Ben asked first.
"What's strange about them is that every time they eat, they order food downstairs and take it upstairs to eat. They don't use the waiter in our store. They send someone downstairs and go back and forth two or three times. They ran upstairs! And they still carried Yu Li, and no one has seen their faces!"
"One time the waiter wanted to go up and help, but he was scolded by them!"
"Oh! By the way, in addition, their rooms are never cleaned, and they threaten that if there are valuables, we are the only ones who ask if they are lost! We are also afraid of taking responsibility, so we never enter their rooms. Room cleaning!”
The shopkeeper recalled it and told it vividly.
"Look, think of something else! I'm telling you, think about it again and see if there's anything else you've missed!"
Wang Ben continued to urge.
But the shopkeeper made a sad face and said, "Master, it's really gone!"
"A few young people carrying bamboo baskets? Wearing raincoats and rain hats every day? No one has seen their true faces after staying for many days? And the day they left was the day before the flood?"
Ying Feiyu muttered softly while tapping his index finger on the table.
"How is it? Your Highness, do you also think these people are very suspicious?"
"How can this be suspicious? This is very suspicious! They deliberately concealed their faces in order not to impress the shopkeeper!"
Facing Wang Ben's inquiry, Ying Feiyu nodded and said.
The shopkeeper and the waiter have seen countless people and have developed a photographic memory.
It is estimated that these suspicious people also understood this and deliberately concealed their appearance.
Just to be sure, for fear that someone might come and ask!
"Alas! It's a pity that no one noticed where they came from and where they went! We just went to ask the soldiers guarding the city. They said that it had rained in those days and there were so many people wearing raincoats. They didn't even know they were there. I can’t remember! Alas! Your Highness, tell me, how can we investigate this?”
Wang Ben spread his hands, feeling helpless.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince...?"
The shopkeeper muttered to himself, and judging from his expression, he seemed to have remembered something.
"How is it? But did you think of anything suspicious?"
Wang Ben saw this and quickly asked.
"Huh...? It's not really a clue!"
"Ouch! No matter what comes to your mind, just tell me quickly. Don't hide it. As long as there is any information about those people, you must tell me everything! I have told you, this matter This matter may affect the entire Great Qin!"
Wang Ben stamped his feet anxiously.
"Yes, yes, yes! I know this, but I don't know if this is a suspicion...!"
As the shopkeeper spoke, he looked at Ying Feiyu, "When you mentioned His Highness the Crown Prince just now, I suddenly remembered that those outsiders would go out as soon as they went downstairs, and they would rush upstairs after returning. But if When they hear the diners in the store talking about His Royal Highness, they will stop and deliberately come closer to listen for a while, as if they are very interested!"
"Then why didn't you say anything just now?"
Wang Ben suddenly raised his voice.
"My lord, I... I didn't think of it! Besides... Besides, His Highness the Crown Prince's reputation has spread throughout the Qin Dynasty. There are so many people who are interested, but I don't take it seriously!"
The shopkeeper was startled, trembling all over, and spoke weakly.
"Okay, don't push too hard. The inn is a place where people come and go. It's normal for the shopkeeper to be negligent for a while...!"
Ying Zheng waved his hand towards Wang Ben, then looked at the shopkeeper, "Did they show any special behavior when they heard about the prince?"
"No!"
The shopkeeper is very sure of this.
"you sure?"
"Your Majesty, I'm sure! When these people heard about His Highness the Crown Prince, they stood nearby and listened quietly without interrupting!"
"oh……?"
Ying Zheng looked at Ying Feiyu beside him suspiciously.
"Okay! Let's go!"
Since the shopkeeper couldn't remember anything, Ying Zheng stopped questioning him.
Wang Ben told the shopkeeper to report it to the Yamen if he remembered anything, and then he ran out and followed Ying Zheng!
"Looks like you should be careful, kid!"
After exiting the door of the inn, Ying Zhengyi spoke pointedly.
If those people were really the ones who destroyed the dam, they must have planned it!
The purpose is just like what he said before, to spread the disaster victims everywhere, and finally mobilize public opinion and start an army to rebel!
Since the motives of these people are not pure, it will definitely not be a good thing to pay attention to the movements of young shota!
"Humph! What should I be careful about, my son? Don't forget, I have the strength of ten thousand kilograms, and ordinary people can't even hurt my hair!"
Ying Feiyu snorted coldly and didn't take this matter to heart at all.
But Ying Zheng frowned.
It seems that these people have really big plans.
First, we selected Nanzhou City, a large dyke, and then we learned that it rains heavily here, so it is easy to cover up the cause of the disaster!
At the same time, the county magistrate here is incompetent, and the county magistrate is a ruffian, so he will definitely not be able to manage the disaster well.
They have taken advantage of the right time and place, and are just waiting for them to come out and raise the flag of rebellion after the disaster occurs and the people are in dire straits!
However, what they didn't expect was that they would end up in the disaster area on a whim.
Not only did they eliminate corrupt officials, they also distributed food, making it impossible to implement their plans!
However, there is a popular saying among the people: If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves missing you!
While destroying the dike, these people also paid attention to the news of the prince.
It's probably a long-term plan.
Even if he can't raise troops this day, he will make plans for the next day!
If you understand it in advance, it will be easier for you to take action later!
"Go back and inform the county magistrate and county magistrate. If you find someone acting suspicious again, don't alert the snake, report it immediately!"
Ying Zheng turned his head and explained.
"yes!"
Wang Ben responded.
In fact, he does not need to say these things, he will explain them himself.
However, I guess it was all in vain!
This place has lost its use value, and only a fool would come back and do it a second time!
…
Since the newspaper published the disaster in Nanzhou City, hoping that everyone would donate money and materials, the people of the Qin Dynasty responded positively.
"I still have a lot of potatoes at home. I can donate three bags!"
“I have rice at home, you can donate a bag!”
"I have corn at home, I don't know if it will work!"
"The food will be ripe soon this year. After my family keeps what they eat, the rest will be donated...!"
In just a few days, local governments have received a lot of supplies.
Then send these materials to trains, ships, and finally to Nanzhou City as quickly as possible!
In the next few days, supplies were delivered to the city every day, completely solving the livelihood problems of the victims.
The victims have sufficient food and medicine, and their bodies are gradually recovering.
More and more people are joining in draining water and rebuilding their homes!
