"I'm so sorry, Master Liu, you are a joke. Please come in the fast house."

The prefect wiped the tears that had overflowed from the corners of his eyes, and then quickly smiled awkwardly. After Liu Shoucai followed the prefect into the house, he talked about his purpose of coming here.

"Master, I came here to find you to help you. I have been drought for a month, so I want to ask the Magistrate to open a warehouse and release grain. Now there are more and more people in the city. I really don't want the town you manage to become an empty city or a dead city."

"I have thought about this, but there is not much food in the granary. The court has not sent any food. Even if the warehouse is opened, there is no food, and it will be useless if it is opened."

The prefect was deeply sorry. Liu Shoucai was shocked. He did not expect that the granary of the prefecture-county government office had no food. It seemed that this matter was really difficult to deal with!

"Then you report to the court quickly! You can't just keep going like this, right?"

"Master Liu said, I was confused before! I didn't think about it. Now I'm just awake and the family has not been smooth yet. I will write a memorial first, but I'm afraid that it will be useless if I write it. You have met our emperor. Do you think the emperor will send rice and grain?"

The question from the prefect made Liu Shoucai feel a little embarrassed. Yes, the emperor is not a good person, how could he be sympathetic to the sufferings of the people? But now he has no good idea. Could it be that he asked him to force the emperor to distribute food in person? That is simply a fantasy.

"Why don't you think about what to do tonight? I'll go back and ask Badou and Xiaobai to think of a solution. This drought has not rained and the people have no food. You can't just forget it. You write a memorial first. If the court does not distribute rice and grain, then we will meet the emperor together, and I won't believe it. He really dares to force the people to rebel together."

Liu Shoucai gave up the cold light in his eyes, which made the prefect shocked. He nodded and agreed. After discussing with the prefect, Liu Shoucai also went home. The prefect looked at Liu Shoucai's decisive and determined back and was very helpless, so he sighed deeply.

As soon as Liu Shoucai came back, he pulled Badou and Xiaobai to the room, "Add to discuss something with you two, it's very important, so I need the support of you two, and the objection is invalid."

"What's the matter? Let's talk about it first."

Xiaobai was smarter. It didn't want to dig a big hole for itself and then bury it. Badou nodded as well. He was never stupid. If he didn't ask clearly, he didn't have a clear idea.

"That's right, you know that it's been a month-long drought now, and many people have no food to eat. I just went to the prefecture and county government office. Who knew that the county government office had no food, so I discussed with the prefect and asked him to write a memorial to the emperor. If the emperor did not distribute rice and grain, I would go to the palace to make a big fuss, so I need the help of you two."

"Liu Shoucai, can you not be so tricky? Every time we make both of us passive, I'm so angry. Do you really think the palace is so easy to break into? After the last incident, do you think that stupid emperor has no measures? Don't forget that we have a powerful opponent with unknown power."

After Xiaobai yelled out, Liu Shoucai also remembered the black hand, but he couldn't keep watching the people displaced! Moreover, Liu Shoucai's own food is not much. Now the food price outside is so high that he can't afford it. Even if it's not for others, he has to do it for himself.

"Xiaobai, you should know that there is not much food in our family anymore. The food prices outside are so high now. Do you think we can afford it? Even if it is not for others, it is for ourselves!"

"Why don't we go to the palace to grab food?"

Badou suddenly said such a shocking sentence. Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai immediately widened their eyes in shock. Badou, who always seemed honest, had such an idea? It was incredible. If Badou had not always been normal, Liu Shoucai would have thought he had been possessed by evil spirits.

"Ba Dou, how could you have this kind of idea? It's so powerful, you're awesome!"

"I'm convinced you, is this still the honest man I once knew?"

"Actually, I have had a dream since I was a child, that is, to be a bandit. I feel that the bandit Lu Ba is really domineering and awesome, but it is too dangerous to do that kind of industry in modern times. Now we have finally come to ancient times. How can we be worthy of our dreams without playing? Do you think?"

"But the bandit Lu Ba and the robber seem to be a little different! And we go to the palace, you are so brave! You even dare to rob the emperor's things. Are you not afraid that the emperor will find someone to destroy you?"

"If you have the ability, let him come! I want to see if I am powerful or the great guards in the palace are powerful."

As Badou said that, he took out his big sword and showed off his power. Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai looked at each other, and the two nodded. It seemed that everyone agreed with Badou's idea. In fact, Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai were also very interested in professions like bandit Lu Ba.

"Since everyone agrees, let's say that. We will go to the palace to have fun tomorrow. If the emperor really doesn't lose his penis, don't blame us for not even finding his underwear."

"Ahem, okay, since everyone has no objection, let's prepare first, let's set off together tomorrow. Of course, we must not miss him from the prefect, lest he thinks we have no sincerity and will not regard him as a friend."

Liu Shoucai's words were very far-fetched, but Xiaobai and Badou didn't care. Anyway, it was not only the two of them who cheated. They were lively with too many people, and they also felt very balanced.

Early the next morning, Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai arrived at the door of the prefect's house together. Lao Yi and Xiaobai had already informed him to rest at home and go to the palace to steal food. Naturally, Liu Shoucai and the others could not tell Lao Yi and the others, so as not to follow the example.

"Oh, Master Liu, why did you come here early in the morning? I have already written a memorial about yesterday's incident and am waiting for the emperor's review now. However, I don't think it's possible, so we still have to think of other ways."

"Master, we have figured out a solution, so now we will take you to the palace to meet the saint."

"Entering the palace to meet the saint? But we cannot enter the palace at will without being summoned, and we do not have the token to enter the palace! How can we get in?"

The prefect was confused and didn't know what Liu Shoucai and the others meant, but looking at the excited expressions on each of their faces, the prefect trembled in his heart. Could it be that they wanted to do something strange? The prefect felt that he was crying and was so passive every time.

"That's right. We plan to go to the palace to steal... Oh, bring some food back. Anyway, there is so much food in the palace, and the emperor can't finish it alone. Instead of putting it in the palace and getting moldy, it's better to make us cheaper, don't you?"

"This...you...ah! I really don't know what you should say."

The prefect sweated coldly. He knew that these people would not have any good ideas. He actually beat all the ideas to the palace and wanted to go to the palace to steal food. Who allowed them to be brave?

"Or why we think of other ways, so let's do it! We go to wealthy families to collect food. Maybe the emperor will distribute food as soon as possible after reading the memorial. Can we wait first?"

Although the prefect could not stand the emperor's actions, as a minister, he could not do anything randomly! Last time it was the emperor's righteousness and he did not punish him. Now if he really went to the palace to steal food with Liu Shoucai and the others, the emperor would probably be implicated in the nine tribes.

"Master, you said just now that the emperor may not be able to distribute food. Instead of wasting time here, watching so many people starve to death, it is better to go and go for a trip. What big thing can you do if you are afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back? Besides, the people are starving to death. Can you, as the magistrate, still do it?"

"But you can't steal it! This is the behavior of a thief. As a prefect, you know the law and break the law. How can you manage the people in the future? No, I won't agree with your stealing behavior."

The prefect was stubborn and disagreed no matter how he said it. Liu Shoucai and Badou were too lazy to talk to the prefect. They pulled his collar and took him to the carriage. Since it didn't make sense, it would be better to do it directly with practical actions. Anyway, the prefect must not be missing.

"You are too much, it's outrageous. Let me go quickly."

"Master, be calm first. If you don't want to go, then I will go to recruit the people to go together. I will not believe it. They are about to starve to death. They are still afraid to show their courage to fight. If they don't fight, we will get nothing. If they fight, we still have a little hope. Master, where have you ever been brave? For the sake of the people of the world, aren't you happy to fight for them?"

"Yes, Master, I believe your people will be proud of you. No one will look down on you, and no one will blame you for this. I believe we have calculated that we will gain a lot this time."

Xiaobai and Liu Shoucai have been doing ideological work for the prefect. Seeing that there was no way out, the prefect could only nod in agreement with aggrievedly. He really regretted being friends with Liu Shoucai and the others, and they were all guys who cheated and did not deserve their lives. The prefect immediately burst into tears.

"The magistrate is so excited, I know you will agree, Badou, speed up, we will move towards the palace with all our might."

After the prefect was settled, Liu Shoucai and Xiaobai had no worries anymore. Badou also accelerated the speed of the carriage. In the afternoon, they arrived outside the palace. Liu Shoucai directly entered the palace by using a ghost to cover his eyes. Although the prefect was very scared, he had already reached this point and had no reason to retreat.

"Master, I have told you just now. When you meet the emperor with me, Badou and Xiaobai took the Qiankun bag to the palace's granary to steal food. Remember, don't attract others' attention. We will meet outside the palace in an hour."

"Okay, start to act! Everyone is careful."

After assigning the task, Liu Shoucai went to meet the emperor with the prefect. Badou took Xiaobai to the granary to steal food. The palace was as bright as ever. Liu Shoucai was speechless to the emperor. When was it time, he still did not forget about luxury. It was so angry that it was so angry.

"Master, what should you say and what should you not say later. You have to think clearly. Badou and I are not afraid of being caught anyway. You have nine clans, so you must pay attention to your words."

"That's natural, I know what to say."

The prefect wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. This time he was really cheated by Liu Shoucai and the others, but he also took it for his own tribe and the people. Anyway, the emperor was also a foolish emperor and wasted so much food, so the prefect felt distressed.

Liu Shoucai took out a token and handed it to the guard guarding the study room. The guard immediately went in and reported to the emperor that the token was taken by Liu Shoucai when he went out last time. Unexpectedly, he could really use it this time. Moreover, Liu Shoucai had also inquired about it, and the emperor was in the study room at this time.

The prefect's legs began to tremble. Liu Shoucai immediately injected some spiritual power into the prefect's body. The prefect felt a little comfortable, and his legs stopped trembling. At this time, the guards also walked out.

"The emperor asked the prefect to meet with Master Liu."

The guards were very respectful, and Liu Shoucai also knew why the guard was so good to him. After showing his tricks last time, Liu Shoucai was very confident. The guards had already regarded Liu Shoucai as a god-like figure.

After entering the study room, Liu Shoucai and the prefect saw the emperor sitting on the chair above to read the memorial. Seeing that Liu Shoucai and the prefect came in, the emperor immediately put down the memorial in his hand.

"Oh, why is Master Liu here? What a rare guest! Come and serve tea to Master Liu, and the prefect will sit together!"

The emperor was very polite to Liu Shoucai. What if he was not polite? The emperor also knew that Liu Shoucai was his plague god. If he didn't send Liu Shoucai away properly, he would only suffer the loss. He was a little afraid to provoke him now. Who knew whether Liu Shoucai would make things difficult for the magistrate?

Moreover, the emperor is not stupid. He sees all the achievements made by the prefect, so he is not embarrassed by the prefect. He is now facing a drought problem. The emperor also knows why they are here because the emperor has read the prefect’s memorial.

"Your Majesty, I believe you know the purpose of our coming here. This time, many people have been displaced, and the food in the prefectural and county government offices is not enough. So we came this time to ask the emperor to distribute rice and grain to provide disaster relief. I wonder what the emperor wants to say?"

Liu Shoucai said that, and even gave the emperor a threatening look. As long as the emperor dared to refuse, Liu Shoucai would not make the emperor feel better.

After seeing Liu Shoucai's threatening eyes, the emperor felt bitter. He thought he had not offended Liu Shoucai, so why did Liu Shoucai always let him go? It seems that he was really miserable as the emperor.

"Master Liu, let's do it! I will first distribute some rice and grain to you to help the people, but there is not a lot of rice and grain in the palace. I plan to ask someone to collect the grain. After I have collected the grain, I will send it to you. What do you think?"

In front of Liu Shoucai, the emperor didn't even dare to say the word "I" and always used the word "I". Liu Shoucai was very satisfied with the emperor's attitude, but was dissatisfied with the emperor's perfunctory words.

"Your Majesty, we are not secretly talking about it. I know very well how much food there is in the palace. Otherwise, you can take out the food for a month first, and then let someone gather the food for the later period. Anyway, the ministers under your command are very rich, and I believe the emperor will not be short of food either."

"This... this is not good! Those ministers are all roosters who are irreverent. Master Liu, aren't you making things difficult for me? Moreover, there is really not much food in the palace, and it is not enough for the food rations for the victims for a month. It can only last for seven days at most. If there is more, I really don't."

The emperor insisted on it at once. When Liu Shoucai came, he knew that the emperor would definitely not give more food, so he asked Badou and Xiaobai to steal food with the Qiankun bag. The Qiankun bag had a lot of space, which was a treasure that could accommodate the food for the victims for a year.

Now that the emperor said that he would give him seven days of food, Liu Shoucai would naturally not refuse. Anyway, he would not dislike him if there was too much food. At worst, he could take out the excess food and sell it for money after the disaster period. Anyway, it was not his own, and the amount of money he sold could be made.

"Okay, since the emperor is so poor, I won't take the opportunity to rob. Your Majesty, then you can send someone to distribute food! Those victims can't wait. We will wait for the emperor's food rescue in the severely affected area."

"That's natural. I will definitely send someone to distribute food to you as soon as possible. After all, those victims are my people, so it is natural that I can't watch them all starve to death."

The emperor smiled awkwardly. Seeing the emperor's sarcastic look, Liu Shoucai was not in the mood to continue to hang out with him, so he stood up and said goodbye to the emperor.

"Since the food matter has been resolved, I will go back with the prefect first. After all, the prefect is also very busy, and I also want to check the situation of the victims. The emperor must be very busy, so we won't disturb you."

"Don't Master Liu and the prefect stay and have a meal before leaving? I'm so embarrassed to leave just like that."

"Next time! Next time we come again, it's not too late to eat again. Now is an extraordinary period. Your Majesty, please be busy! Let's leave first and say goodbye."

Liu Shoucai did not give the emperor a chance to talk to the prefect, so he walked out directly. Seeing that Liu Shoucai and the others were finally sent away, the emperor felt much more relaxed. Although he had lost seven days of food this time, it was only rare, so he would not care about such a little food.
