Chapter 249: Jiangsi County Chapter 17
Almost all the officials of Yaguo knew that if anyone dared to do something illegal in front of Ning Yuanxing, they would be directly on the emperor's bar.
From now on, no one dares to bribe Ning Yuanxing anymore, and no one dares to be presumptuous in front of him, when he sees Ning Yuanxing, he has to hide his tail, in case he is caught, the end will be very miserable without exception.
Since Master Zhang knew Ning Yuanxing's identity, the whole person was in a state of emptiness, if the emperor had sent someone else as a governor, he would still have a chance to struggle, but he didn't expect that the two people who came here today turned out to be incredible big shots.
His life is dead!
"What's wrong with him?" Si Chen walked up to Master Zhang, shook his hand in front of him, and asked out loud.
"Who knows? Probably stupid. Si Du said lightly.
Elegy saw that Master Zhang just knew Ning Yuanxing's name, so she was frightened, she looked at him, smiled playfully, and said, "You are really not treated well, look at what you scared people into?" ”
Ning Yuanxing smiled faintly and was noncommittal.
In the end, he still left a "way to live" for Master Zhang, "I don't plan to hold you accountable for what happened just now, I don't know what the princess thinks?" ”
As soon as he said this, Master Zhang's eyes immediately regained their brilliance.
This free-flowing acting skills make the elegy breathtaking, just now I was going to die, but now it's completely good, this change of face is like turning a book, don't be too fast!
"Since the prime minister has said so, Lone does not intend to pursue this matter anymore, Master Zhang's crime of attacking the royal family. Loneliness can be blamed in the past. "Originally, the purpose of their coming today was not to make things difficult for Master Zhang, and Elegy was unwilling to spend time on this meaningless matter, so if you say that, this matter is over.
When Master Zhang heard this, he was truly relieved, "Thank you princess, thank you prime minister, the two of you ......"
"If you want to say thank you, just put it aside." Master Zhang opened his mouth, not knowing that he was going to talk about the Year of the Monkey again. Ning Yuanxing stopped Master Zhang's words. He said lightly: "Can Master Zhang give me an explanation, there has been such a big commotion, why hasn't the county guard appeared yet?" Was it too long to work yesterday, or was it something else? ”
"Uh...... This ......" Master Zhang was stunned. The muscles in his face twitched. Hurriedly said, "My lord...... Adults watched official business for too long yesterday. I'm still asleep......"
Except for Ning Yuanxing, everyone else present couldn't help but roll their eyes.
Master Zhang's ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense is indeed very clever, and Wang Chengxian is clearly still in the flower building now. But I want to be shameless to say that it's because I've been reading official documents for too long, which is really shameless!
"The little one, the little one, send someone to call the adults over, and the princess and the prime minister, please wait a while." Master Zhang was about to go out to call someone, but he didn't want to, but he was stopped by Ning Yuanxing, "Since the county guard is busy with official business, let him sleep a little longer." ”
"Huh?" Master Zhang was about to sigh when Ning Yuanxing became so easy to speak, but the latter said, "Take us to see how that bandit is first, I heard from some channels yesterday that the thief has something else, and I feel a little uneasy, so I came over to take a look." ”
"Huh? What's so strange about a bandit? Prime Minister, don't believe the gossip on the streets! ”
The cold sweat on Master Zhang's forehead flowed down all of a sudden, Wang Chengxian sent someone to give them instructions last night, the bandits will come over this morning to bring back the captured bandit, and now it has been delayed for so long, and I don't know if the person has been taken away.
Don't be taken away! Master Zhang secretly prayed in his heart.
What he wanted was to find a way to drag Ning Yuanxing and a few people first, and then send someone to go to the cell to check the situation first, if the person had already been taken away, he would first find a person with a similar body shape to replace him, of course, it was best that the person had not been taken away.
It's a pity that no matter how well Master Zhang's wishful thinking is, he has been seen through by Ning Yuanxing at a glance, he glanced at him lightly, and said, "I said that I was going to the cell to see the situation of the thief now, why did Master Zhang stop him repeatedly?" ”
"No, no, no......! How dare the little one? Ning Yuanxing's suddenly cold tone made Master Zhang's back almost soaked, he wiped the cold sweat from the corner of his forehead in a panic, his eyes rolled wildly, and finally his eyes fell on Elegy, his eyes lit up, and said: "It's just a filthy place like a prison cell, which is not suitable for a noble person like the princess." ”
Elegy raised her eyebrows, and pointed the finger at her, she coughed lightly, and said, "It's okay, I don't mind." ”
"This ......" Master Zhang hesitated slightly, the road of elegy can't go through, and he can't go to ventilate and report the news, how can this be good?
"Can you lead the way now?" Ning Yuanxing asked lightly.
His voice was fluttering, which made Master Zhang shiver, Master Zhang was helpless, now this situation, there is no change, you can only take one step at a time.
"Yes, yes...... The villain will lead the way! Master Zhang nodded to Ning Yuanxing, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead while thinking quickly of countermeasures in his mind, and finally he recruited a subordinate who was very clever on weekdays, and commanded in front of Ning Yuanxing: "Go!" Now go and see if the adult has woken up, and if he does, invite him over. ”
As he spoke, he gave the person a look, everyone knew that Wang Chengxian went to Hualou yesterday, what Master Zhang meant, that person also clearly understood, he glanced at the person behind Master Zhang, nodded hurriedly, and then trotted away.
When Master Zhang saw that the person was running in the direction, he knew that the other party had understood what he meant, and he was estimating the distance between Tianzi and the county guard, if Wang Chengxian moved faster, the time for this back and forth was also more than half an hour, and he must drag the person in this time.
But the most important point is the problem of the bandit, what if the person has already been picked up?
He glanced at Ning Yuanxing, not wanting the other party to look at him with a smile, and he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, Master Zhang always felt that there was a trace of strangeness in that smile, as if the other party had seen through his mind early on.
His cold sweat brushed down again, and Master Zhang laughed dryly and asked, "That'...... Are the princess and the prime minister the past with the young? It will take some effort to get to the cell from here, so why don't you eat breakfast first? We have ...... here."
"It's not too late to eat and wait until you've seen that bandit." Elegy interrupted Master Zhang's words, this old fox just wanted to delay time, why couldn't she see it?
If they really listened to Master Zhang's words and went to have breakfast, I am afraid that the evidence would be gone long ago.
Master Zhang smiled awkwardly and said, "Since this is the case, then please invite the princess and the little one to come." ”
Master Zhang led the elegy and a few people to go back and forth between the county guard mansion and the prison cell, the more the elegy went, the more she felt that something was wrong, she moved back a little, and then whispered to Si Chen: "Si Chen, you go to the prison first to explore the truth." ”
Si Chen nodded, took on the light skills, and left the team unconsciously, and went to the cell first.
After almost half a quarter of time, he met Wang Chengxian who hurried to this side on the road, as soon as he saw Ning Yuanxing and his party, he wanted to kneel and bow, "Her Royal Highness the princess and the prime minister are coming, and Weichen has missed the welcome, and I hope the princess and the prime minister will forgive me." ”
"Oh?" Ning Yuanxing was not in a hurry to let Wang Chengxian get up, but just asked lightly, "My lord can be regarded as waking up." ”
Wang Chengxian ran sweating profusely, and when he heard Ning Yuanxing's words, he was suddenly embarrassed, his round face was full of embarrassment, he nodded, and said, "Yes...... woke up, Xia Guan didn't know the identity of the princess and the prime minister yesterday, and he couldn't wash the dust for the two, Weichen felt very guilty, and asked the princess to confess! ”
As he spoke, he lay on the ground with one hand and knocked his head three times.
After kowtowing, there was no follow-up, Ning Yuanxing and the others did not tell him to get up immediately, Wang Chengxian thought that they were deliberately trying to make things difficult, and secretly complained bitterly, and after a while, Ning Yuanxing opened his mouth.
"Excuse me, yesterday we had no intention of revealing our identities, and we didn't mean to let Lord Wang pick up the wind and wash the dust, those who don't know are not guilty, you can relax." Ning Yuanxing raised his hand to Wang Chengxian and said, "The county guard, please get up quickly." ”
"Yes! Thank you, Prime Minister! Thank you, princess! Wang Chengxian thanked him again and again and stood up.
After he and Master Zhang exchanged glances for a while, he said to Ning Yuanxing and the others: "On the way here, I heard that the princess and the prime minister were going to the prison cell to see the bandits they brought yesterday?" ”
"It's true, and now that you're on the way there, is there anything you want to question?"
"No, no, no...... Since the princess and the prime minister are going to see it, let's go and see it, so that the rumors on the street can be dispelled. Wang Chengxian showed a confident smile, as if he was really open.
Elegy couldn't help frowning, she saw Wang Chengxian's attitude, and doubted in her heart, could it be that Wang Chengxian had already prepared all the relevant matters on the way here? Otherwise, how can you not panic at all?
Things are really like what Elegy thinks, the person sent by Master Zhang to call Wang Chengxian, the two met on the road, and the subordinates told the general situation, Wang Chengxian immediately made emergency preparations, and it was precisely because of this that he could not be in a hurry.
When Si Chen rushed over, Jiang Chi was still intact in the cell, so he sat quietly and watched the officials busy cleaning up all the inappropriate things in the cell, and then respectfully invited Jiang Chi into the cell again and locked the door from the outside.
As for the three thieves who came to pick up Jiangchi, they had to stop first, and they did not immediately go back to their respective mountains, but observed the situation near the prison. Suddenly, a minister or something came and broke all their plans, and Hu San returned a night pearl for nothing, how could he bear this breath?
If he doesn't explore the truth, he is unwilling! (To be continued......)
