"Princess, princess."

Xiao Yan shouted nervously, looking at Feng Yu who was sleeping in his arms, he was very nervous.

"Princess, wake up."

Maybe Xiao Yan's voice was too eager, but the next moment, Feng Yu really opened her eyes, and she looked at the person in front of her, as if she couldn't believe it.

"Xiao Yan?"

Seeing that Fengyu woke up, Xiao Yan nodded happily, "It's me, I'm here." ”

"Why are you so slow?" Feng Yu complained with a smile, her voice sounding a little weak.

"I'm sorry, I'm late." Xiao Yan hurriedly apologized, and comforted gently: "Don't be afraid, I won't let others hurt you." ”

Fengyu shook her head and said softly, "I'm not afraid, I'm just ...... I'm so hungry. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yan was stunned, and then hugged Fengyu with a wry smile and said, "Don't worry, I'll take you out." ”

After Xiao Yan took Fengyu out of the study, the first thing he did was to tell the people in the house to prepare meals, all of which were the meals that Fengyu liked to eat on weekdays.

After coming out of the study, the two met the housekeeper, and the housekeeper immediately turned around and left as soon as he saw Fengyu.

"Stop!"

The housekeeper was shocked, because Xiao Yan was present, he didn't dare to make a move, so he had to obediently stop and trot over.

"The little one has seen the princess, and the general has seen it."

Although Fengyu was hugged by Xiao Yan, her tone of voice was not weak at all, she looked at the housekeeper and sneered: "When you see me, what are you running?" ”

The housekeeper was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said, "Little one...... The little one was clumsy for a while, and he didn't see that it was the princess, and he hoped that the princess would forgive her sins. ”

"Hmph, I don't have the strength to talk nonsense with you right now." Feng Yu snorted coldly, and then looked at Xiao Yan, "Sun Jianye is also involved in accumulating wealth and buying and selling official positions. ”

Suddenly, Xiao Yan's eyes became cold when he looked at the housekeeper, and he said to the soldiers in the courtyard: "Come on, put the housekeeper in the prison, and wait for the arrival with Sun Jianye and others." ”

"Yes, General."

"The princess spares her life, and the little one is also forced to be helpless." The housekeeper hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Feng Yu and Xiao Yan turned a deaf ear to this, and watched the housekeeper being dragged away by the soldiers, and Feng Yu was also relieved.

"Okay, now that the matter is over, I'll send the princess back to her room to rest first."

"Okay."

Xiao Yan carried Fengyu back to the room, put her on the bed, then poured a glass of water and helped her up to feed her.

Seeing Xiao Yan serving herself like this, Feng Yu was a little embarrassed and said: "Actually, you don't have to do this, I'm just a little hungry and a little weak, and I don't have any injuries on my body." ”

The next moment, Xiao Yan suddenly showed a somewhat guilty look, looked at Feng Yu and said, "It was my mistake that caused the princess to be trapped, and now this is just a little insignificant compensation." ”

"How did this become your mistake?" Feng Yu looked at him with some amusement and said comfortingly: "This is obviously because I was not careful, so I was trapped." ”

"And the location of that dark room is extremely secret, if you hadn't found me in time, I might still be locked up in it now, maybe I would have died there."

"I'm not going to let the princess die." Xiao Yan said in a firm tone.

Xiao Yan once said this sentence to Feng Yu, but Feng Yu was only a little moved at that time, and when I heard Xiao Yan say it today, Feng Yu's heart was not only moved, but also had some ...... I can't tell what it feels like.

"General, the meal has been served."

There was a subordinate voice outside the door, Xiao Yan straightened up and said, 'Come in', then looked at Feng Yu and said, "Eat here, or ......"

"Go over and eat." Feng Yu interrupted him, and then said, "You can help me." ”

Xiao Yan helped Feng Yu sit on the stool, then waved off the subordinates and served soup to Feng Yu.

Fengyu didn't eat anything for breakfast, and was locked in the dark for too long, and now she is really hungry.

Seeing that Fengyu was eating in a hurry, Xiao Yan immediately poured a glass of water and put it in front of her, and said with a concerned face: "Be careful, don't choke." ”

"Uh-huh." Feng Yu looked up and nodded with a smile, then took a sip of tea and continued to eat.

Xiao Yan, as before, brought the plate containing the fish to him, carefully removed the fish bones, and put the plate in front of Feng Yu.

Looking at the fish in front of her, Feng Yu swallowed the dish in her mouth, and said to Xiao Yan with a smile: "Thank you." ”

Xiao Yan looked at her with gentle eyes, and said softly, "Eat slowly, don't worry." ”

After her stomach was a little full, Feng Yu slowed down the speed of eating, she handed the account book to Xiao Yan, and said, "This is the account book that Sun Jianye has been hiding. ”

"When I was in the dark, I casually looked at it, this Sun Jianye did a lot of hurtful things during his tenure as governor."

"Although not all of them are recorded on it, there are detailed records of things like the whereabouts of money and the buying and selling of official positions."

Xiao Yan took the account book and opened it, the more he looked at it, the deeper his brows wrinkled, and after reading it roughly, he closed the account book and put it aside.

"What's next for the princess?"

Feng Yu thought for a while and said, "Sun Jianye and the others will definitely go back to Beijing with us for interrogation, but before that, we have to give justice to the people in Jiangnan first." ”

After thinking for a while, Feng Yu looked at Xiao Yan and said, "Didn't you take over the Governor's Mansion?" It's better to come forward and open a court and make decisions for the people who have redressed their grievances. ”

Don't even think about this, Xiao Yan will definitely agree to Fengyu. Sure enough, Xiao Yan nodded without hesitation, and said, "Don't worry, princess, I will start handling this matter immediately." ”

"I have always been relieved that you do things." Feng Yu said with a smile, and then continued to eat.

After Feng Yu finished eating, Xiao Yan called the maid to wait for her to wash and sleep, afraid that Feng Yu would not be able to sleep comfortably because of today's events, Xiao Yan stayed outside the door all night.

As soon as the news of the opening of the public court was announced, it quickly spread all over the streets and alleys, and when they heard that the general was going to open a public court to accept everyone's grievances, the people of Jiangnan all praised it.

But two days have passed, and still no one has come to the yamen to beat the drum and voice grievances, which Fengyu and Xiao Yan both feel very strange about.

Now that Sun Jianye and his master have been imprisoned, it stands to reason that the people should come out to redress their grievances without any scruples, why are they silent now?

In order to understand what the people were thinking, Fengyu went to the street to find Zhao Qingping and asked him what he thought about the opening of the court, but no one came to redress the grievances?

Faced with Fengyu's question, Zhao Qingping hesitated, a little embarrassed: "Princess, although Sun Jianping and his party have been caught, the people have already had a shadow on them in their hearts because they have been oppressed by them all year round. ”

"And this matter is deeply implicated, even the people know that officials are connected with each other, and they are afraid that the new governor will retaliate in the future, so they would rather suffer this dumb loss. After all, I have suffered this loss for so many years, and I don't want to cause trouble again. ”

After listening to Zhao Qingping's words, Feng Yu finally understood the crux of the problem, she was silent for a moment, and said to Zhao Qingping: "We opened the public court just to give the people justice first. ”

"Zhao Qingping, are you willing to be this pioneer?"

Zhao Qingping was stunned for a moment, looked at Feng Yu and said, "Princess, what do you mean ......?"

"You are the first to come forward to redress your grievances, as long as someone takes the lead, then other people's hearts will be shaken."

"But the villain ......"

Seeing Zhao Qingping's hesitation, Feng Yu looked at him with a solemn face and said, "I also know very well in my heart that this matter involves Taiguan, and the officials protect each other. But I assure you, this is not going to be left alone. ”

"In a few days, Sun Jianye and a few people will go to Beijing with me, and I will investigate this matter clearly, as long as it is the person involved, no matter how big the official is, I will definitely punish him for his crime and let him be punished accordingly."

After getting along for a few days, Zhao Qingping also knew that Feng Yu was a person full of justice in his heart, so after thinking about it for a while, he promised Feng Yu that he would be the pioneer first.

The next day, Zhao Qingping came to the yamen to beat the drum and voice the grievances according to what Feng Yu said, Xiao Yan came forward to accept the matter, and Feng Yu sat aside as a bystander.

There were many people watching outside the hall, Zhao Qingping appealed his grievances in the court, and Xiao Yan handled it impartially after hearing it, not only returned Zhao Qingping's innocence on the spot, but also gave him appropriate compensation.

Of course, the compensation money was searched from the governor's mansion, and it was all the money embezzled by Sun Jianye in the past.

Seeing the result of Zhao Qingping's grievance, the people outside the hall applauded, and Zhao Qingping followed Fengyu and Xiao Yan out of the door of the court.

A great crowd of people also gathered outside the gate, and when they heard that there were people beating drums and shouting grievances, they met here.

"The people of Jiangnan, you should be quiet and listen to me first." Feng Yu raised her hand to signal the people to be quiet, then looked at them and said, "I am the princess of the Northern Capital, and this one next to me is the general of the Northern Capital." ”

"When we came to Jiangnan this time, we stumbled upon the former governor Sun Jianye who embezzled money and bought and sold official positions. Now we have found out that Sun Jianye has done a lot of hurtful things during his tenure, and we have found evidence. ”

"Now that the court is open for trial, as long as there is a grievance, you can come to appeal, and we will handle it impartially."

Speaking of this, Feng Yu paused, looked at the hesitant people, and continued, "I know you have concerns in your hearts. ”

"I am afraid that the officials will protect each other, Sun Jianye will not be punished, and I am afraid that there will be bureaucratic retaliation later."

"But I, Fengyu, am here to assure you today that I will definitely investigate Sun Jianye's evil deeds thoroughly, no matter who is involved, as long as it is true, I will definitely let my father severely punish him."

When Feng Yu spoke, Xiao Yan's eyes kept falling on her, seeing her radiant appearance, a smile rose at the corner of her mouth, and her eyes became very doting.

Feng Yu's words were like a reassuring pill, and after the people heard it, they applauded and applauded.

Subsequently, a large number of people poured into the yamen to redress grievances, and as long as there were wronged people, Xiao Yan would accept them one by one.
