Zhou Ying took a solid look at Young Master Liu. After making sure that no evil glow was coming off his body, she had no choice but to withdraw from her light screen.
After that, she got busy grinding a large amount of mixed flour. The couple then took a shower and left the interspace.
Gu Chengrui saw it was still early and wanted to “exercise” with her.
However, seeing her absent-minded look, he pinched her face and asked, “What are you thinking about? You’re completely ignoring your husband.”
Zhou Ying returned to her senses and told him about County Magistrate Kong, “This is no small matter. If they succeed, not to mention the third prince, I’m afraid even we won’t have a good ending.”
“Do you know who this Young Master Liu is working for?” Gu Chengrui’s face immediately darkened.
“I’m not sure, as they didn’t mention the person, and I doubt it would be anyone other than the other two princes. We must think of a way to warn Manager Liu and the Third Prince.”
“It’s not easy to do this with our identities. We don’t even know the exact location.” Gu Chengrui paused and continued, “By the way, do you think you can try to remind them of Mother God?”
“I haven’t tried it, but it’s worth a shot.” Zhou Ying nodded and agreed with this suggestion.
“Sure, there’s no need to be too anxious.
“I don’t think they dare make any big moves before completely replacing County Magistrate Kong. Otherwise, if exposed, they will be executed for such a heavy crime.” Gu Chengrui smiled and pulled her into his arms.
Conversely, Manager Liu’s men quickly discovered County Magistrate Kong had gone missing.
They suddenly saw two masked men dragging the unconscious County Magistrate Kong into a carriage when they had just started their search.
They immediately rushed forward, and after a struggle, they ‘saved’ County Magistrate Kong and sent him back to the county office.
After Manager Liu received the news, he didn’t suspect that this County Magistrate Kong was a fake. Instead, he strengthened the protection around County Magistrate Kong.
At the same time, after receiving the information about food appearing out of thin air from the government offices in the county and the various towns, he immediately sent a messenger pigeon to the Third Prince.
The Third Prince was shocked when he heard this. He had never expected such a bizarre thing to really happen.
After confirming that this wasn’t fake, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Cousin, what do you think of this?” he asked Zhou Huaiming.
“Although there was a batch of food and sweet potatoes from the south, most were transported further to the north. I’m afraid the ones we have won’t last long. Why don’t we try it too?” Zhou Huaiming said.
The Third Prince shook his head after a moment of contemplation. “The faith in Mother God has been completely cut off here, so these people must undergo a process to regain it.
“So, go and find the two old men from before; tell them to bring their clansmen and pay their respects to Mother God. We’ll make a move after this news has spread.”
“But if we go there now and get food from Mother God, won’t we be able to establish our prestige among the people?”
“Don’t forget that Uncle Liu once asked a question about the sincerity of a person’s prayers.
“If you don’t let the people know Mother God will really care for us, even if we forcibly tie them up, they won’t pray to Mother God sincerely.”
“Understood. I’ll make the arrangements now.”
“Go now, and check if the Mother God Temple here is safe.”
“Yes.” Zhou Huaiming nodded and left.
After having breakfast, he brought his trusted aides out and ordered them to scout the Mother God Temple’s surroundings.
As for himself, he went to look for the two clan elders.
On the other side, Zhou Ying and the others had just woken up when they heard the news that the county had ordered the repair of the Mother God Temple. They were immediately overjoyed.
This way, the Mother God Temple could establish itself in Yunhe County..
