Of course, Niu Caohua doesn't know all this, and even if he knew it, he wouldn't care, as long as it can't be traced to himself.
The ship sailed for three days and successfully arrived at Chengyang County.
Chengyang County is the largest county in Qingzhou, and the governor of Qingzhou is here.
Niu Caohua was in Chengyang, and inquired about the situation, and found out helplessly that the trading houses that he had not returned to recently would have to wait for another month.
One month has been too long, my family may be anxious, and there is no way to contact them quickly.
But it is too dangerous to go back alone.
On the way here last time, there were robbers, bandits, and wolves and wild beasts. If he hadn't followed the convoy of the trading company, it would have been a problem for him to get here alive.
I can only ask Yaxing to help keep an eye on it and see if there are any convoys going to Yangzhou recently. As long as they arrive in Yangzhou, things will be much easier to solve.
We first booked an inn. I don’t know how much better the environment here is than in Pingling County. The people on the street were all clean and tidy, with smiles on their faces. I didn’t see a few beggars on the road.
After putting the things in the inn room, Niu Caohua took Niu Xiaobai out for shopping.
When you go out, you always bring back some specialties.
Especially since it's close to the sea, there shouldn't be too much seafood and it's not expensive.
Dried fish, buy it.
Dried shrimp, buy it.
Kelp, buy it.
Yao Zhu, buy it.
There are also many strange-shaped shells and conchs that can be bought back as decorations.
When Niu Caohua came to her senses, she found that she had bought so many things that she couldn't hold them with her hands.
Looking at the dry goods on the stall with regret, I had to go back to the inn to put away my things.
As night fell, after dinner, Niu Caohua found a piece of white paper and started writing a letter.
Write a letter of accusation to the governor of Qingzhou.
Reported Pingling County Magistrate Ye Changming for corrupting and perverting the law.
It was reported that Ye Zhongqiang, the son of the Pingling County magistrate and the county lieutenant, had robbed civilian girls and caused harm to the village.
He wrote down everything he saw in Pingling County.
He copied several more copies, secretly went to the governor's house under the cover of night, and asked Niu Xiaobai to throw all the letters into the governor's room.
I heard that the governor here is good. I believe he will send someone to Pingling County to find out the truth after reading the contents of the letter.
After doing all this, Niu Caohua returned to the inn room and had a good sleep until dawn.
The next morning, I received news from Yaxing that a family was going out to visit relatives, and their destination was Panyang County, Yangzhou. They said they could take Niucaohua with them.
Isn't this a coincidence?
He quickly went to the market and bought a carriage.
The horse is the most ordinary horse, the color is ordinary, and the frame is also the most ordinary.
It cost fifty taels of silver.
I bought a lot of things this time, and I couldn’t do it without buying a carriage.
You can't carry big and small bags in someone else's car.
How embarrassing.
When the day of departure arrived, Niu Caohua rushed the carriage to the city gate early. After waiting for a while, she saw a motorcade slowly coming out of the city.
Compared with the previous convoy of the trading house, this convoy has a lot fewer people. There are only a few carriages, which are relatively simple. They are followed by maids and servants, but their guards are pretty good, and they all look powerful.
There is such a guard, it seems that the origin is not small, he should be traveling in simple clothes, and he doesn't want to reveal his identity.
Niu Caohua went to the front carriage to say thank you, and then drove her own carriage to follow.
The people in the car didn't say anything, and just let the boy exchange a few words.
Niu Caohua was not very good at driving the carriage at first. It was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and it was very bumpy. She was still a guard and couldn't stand it anymore. After giving a few pointers, she gradually got used to it, and she became familiar with it later on.
Because this time there were not many people crowded into a small carriage, Niu Xiaobai was also liberated and could go out and stretch his muscles. Of course, he would never be discovered and could only move around inside the carriage.
Because the little guy can speak now, he is very talkative. He can chatter a lot when he sees a butterfly appearing on the road.
Of course, the voice was so small that only Niu Caohua could hear it. Because they had been following the convoy, no one noticed them.

On the other side, Xue Pan, the governor of Qingzhou, who got up early in the morning, got dressed and was about to go out, was startled when he saw the papers scattered on the floor by the window.
He clearly remembered that there was nothing here when he went to bed last night!
And the window was closed from the inside, how could a note come in?
After thinking for a while, I picked up one and opened it. What I saw were the characters of different sizes, and they were ugly, with teeth and claws. (Traditional Chinese characters are too difficult to write, there are too many strokes!)
He frowned and read the content, his face darkening.
What is written here is probably true.
After all, who could describe what happened in Pingling County in such detail unless they saw it with their own eyes.
He calmly picked up all the notes and put them away, called his confidants, and ordered him to send a team of people to Pingling County to secretly inquire about the situation.
Seeing this, his confidants felt measured and retreated.
After his confidant left, Xue Pan looked around the room and felt a chill in his heart.
This man delivered the things to his house without anyone noticing, without alerting anyone in the house or letting anyone notice his presence. His strength should not be underestimated.
If it were an enemy, it would be easy to take his own life.
Fortunately, this person was a decent person. After seeing the situation in Pingling County, he did not kill him, but reported it to himself.
However, the strength of the guards in the mansion is still not enough, and they need to be further trained.
But what Governor Xue didn't know was that the person delivering the letter was not a human at all, but a little fox as big as a palm.
He is flexible and clever, and he also understands the language of animals. After communicating with the domestic animals in the mansion, he has a clear understanding of the entire governor's mansion.
He walked straight to the outside of Governor Xue's house and stuffed the notes in one by one.
Before leaving, he also wiped away the small plum blossoms he had stepped on on the window sill.
How could the guards in the mansion notice it.
