Chapter 009: Prefect Song Lancheng
"The reason why Wechen is late today is precisely because of this incident, if the money was killed at home last night, someone came to the yamen to report the case at dawn this morning, which involved human lives, so Wechen went to check first." Zhang Xian paused for a moment, and asked tentatively: "I don't know why the princess wants to go to Qian Wanyi?" ”
I stared at Zhang Xian, and found that this person's face did not change, and I said in my heart, "It's really a ruthless character." "It seems that this case is really a bit tricky, just when I was in a dilemma, suddenly there was a commotion outside the door of the restaurant, and two soldiers who looked like officials pushed open the door and walked in.
Zhang Xian glanced back, he was not familiar, so he squinted and looked carefully. Soon, a man in an official uniform walked in with his beard on. At this moment, Zhang Xian's eyes suddenly widened, and he wanted to hurry over, but it seemed to hinder my face, so he just turned sideways and bowed.
"The lower officials have seen the prefect, and they have never greeted them from afar, and they hope to forgive their sins."
Listening to what Zhang Xian said, I knew that it was the prefect who came in. Even then, it wasn't my turn to salute. I pretended to be calm, sat down at the table, and waited for the prefect to come and greet me.
That Zhang Xian was really very eye-catching, and saluted me again: "Your Royal Highness Princess, this is the prefect Song Lancheng." ”
I nodded, and when the prefect saw Zhang Xian saluting in front of me, he naturally guessed my identity, but he still walked in front of me with square steps and unhurriedly.
"Wechen has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess." Although Song Lancheng was saluting, his tone was cold, and it was not very comfortable to listen to. "Weichen came this time for a murder case, and he is on official business, so he will not delay Her Royal Highness the princess's trip to the north."
Obviously, this Song Lancheng is here to drive me away, but it seems that he is really just for this case. It's just that I'm very surprised that Zhang Xian, the county magistrate, only received the report in the morning, why did Song Lancheng know so quickly?
"Oh, if this case has nothing to do with me, it's fine, but I just got some news, and I'm worried about the whereabouts of two people." As I spoke, my eyes glanced at Zhang Xian, the county magistrate on the side. "I also asked the county magistrate to help me find these two people, and now I ......"
"If Her Royal Highness the princess is looking for someone, the county order can arrange two small soldiers to investigate. Even if this person can't be found, it doesn't matter, as long as Her Royal Highness the princess is safe, it won't affect the ...... of sending relatives."
"Your Excellency, this is wrong!" I couldn't help but be a little angry, this prefect obviously didn't take me as a princess in his eyes, and he didn't have a cold attitude towards me, so he directly interrupted me, and I also directly intercepted his words. "If these two people have such a great relationship with money, how can it not matter!?"
Song Lancheng snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Even so, the investigation of the case is also a matter for the Yamen, so what does it have to do with Her Royal Highness the Princess?" Please also ask Her Royal Highness the princess not to forget her main task, it was delayed, but ......"
"I don't need to be reminded by Governor Song, it's just that these two people are my maids, if they fall into the hands of bandits, and then leak my whereabouts, then do I take the road of harmony or not?" I stared at Song Lancheng, and Song Lancheng only paid a little attention to me at this moment.
"And what does Her Royal Highness mean?"
"It's not interesting, it just so happens that the prefect and the county magistrate are here, so we might as well go to the Qianwan Mansion for a walk." I stood up and motioned to Gu Shoucheng, who had not spoken all this time, "General Gu, let's go!" ”
When Song Lancheng heard me call "General Gu", his face suddenly softened, "The lower officials have seen General Gu. ”
Gu Shoucheng was bigger than the spectrum, so he didn't pay attention to Song Lancheng and Zhang Xian at all, and directly bypassed the two of them and ran in front of me to open the way.
At this moment, I finally understand what official authority is.
When I got out of the restaurant, I happened to see a carriage, and it was none other than Li Da. I really don't know when he ran outside and got the wagon ready.
Du Ruo helped me to step into the carriage, and then Song Lancheng hurriedly came over.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess, there are many suspicions in this case, I am afraid it will take a lot of time to investigate thoroughly, as for the maids around Her Royal Highness the Princess, you can re-select one or two in Qi County, and the itinerary can also be adjusted slightly, do not delay the diplomatic relations between the two countries because of this matter, Your Highness!"
Song Lancheng said earnestly, if he didn't know, he would definitely treat him as a loyal minister who risked his life to admonish.
I turned around and smiled politely, and pretended to compliment: "The Song Governor's Mansion reacted so quickly to this case, this princess believes that this case can be solved in less than a day, and as for my two maids, it is estimated that they will be able to find it in the evening." Seeing Song Lancheng's face pale, I added: "This princess believes that there is a Song prefect's mansion, and no one who does evil will be able to escape, right?" ”
I threw a very polite smile and gave Song Lancheng, the prefect who was a little dazed, completely disdainful of his embarrassment, and turned into the carriage.
Li Da pulled the curtain and signaled to Gu Shoucheng, only to hear a crisp whip, and the carriage walked slowly.
