Chapter 519: Important
Originally, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was thinking of struggling to resist, otherwise he would not have been taken away casually in this long street.
But just after the leader shouted that sentence, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stopped in a daze, put down his hands, and followed honestly.
I only heard the middle-aged man in front of his head who looked quite mighty open his mouth and shouted: "This person stole my Taishou Mansion's things, arrested me, and took them back to Taishou Mansion for interrogation." ”
At the same time as hearing the person in front of him speak, only these two words appeared in the mind of His Royal Highness the Prince, it turned out that the Taishou Mansion wanted to take him?
A city has two lords, a garrison and a guard, one to govern the army and the other to manage the city, and the two have the same rank, and they generally do not interfere with each other.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince obviously didn't take anything from the Taishou Mansion, and these people from the Taishou Mansion in front of him would say this about him, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince naturally wouldn't think that it was a deliberate slander, there was no need for this, or that he recognized the wrong person or something.
Since it is not for these two reasons, then it is necessary for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go with these people and see what the Lord Taishou of this Wheat City wants to see him do, if I remember correctly, the Taishou of Wheat is called Ji Lin, and he is a relict of the previous dynasty.
There is also an additional identity, which is the student of the boss Wang Mingji, so it seems that he is still from the same school, and it can be regarded as a friendship with classmates.
Because of such an identity, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince naturally felt cordial to this Lord Ji who had never met, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought of it with a chuckle on the corner of his mouth.
And this Lord Ji's identity as a relict official of the previous dynasty can still be reused to this day, and as the Taishou of a military place like Wheat City, it is inseparable from the identity of Wang Mingji's student.
The rest is that this Taishou is really a capable person, needless to say, noble virtues such as honesty and impartiality in law enforcement, since he became the Taishou of this wheat city, this wheat city that was not originally rich and powerful has been properly governed.
With such ability, he can naturally be in such a position, and for capable ministers, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also has a layer of admiration in his heart.
With the influence of such a few factors, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not resist in the slightest, so he followed behind the middle-aged man and was taken away by a group of generals from the Taishou Mansion.
On the lively long street, such a scene happened, which naturally attracted hundreds of onlookers, but after hearing the matter clearly, these people lost interest, plus they were people who were too guarded by the mansion, and they dispersed one after another and didn't look at it anymore.
But such a thing, the trivial matter is small, but no matter how you say it, it is also related to the Taishou Mansion, and the people who can't hide it from the Dasha Gang and the garrison adults have reported it in detail.
Can you attract the attention of the above, but if you don't say it because of the small matter, what will really happen at that time has something to do with today's events, and they, the lowest level of the big sand gang, will die without a place to be buried, and it is even worse than those miserable prostitutes who can still be buried in the alleys.
This is the rule of the Great Sand Gang.
Without further ado, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince followed the group and didn't take much time to come to Changqing Street.
Most of the upper-level officials in Wheat City live here, and Lord Taishou himself is no exception, and it is a coincidence that opposite the Taishou Mansion is the residence of Lord Guard.
Standing in front of the door, from the outside, the Taishou Mansion is much more low-key and subtle than the mansion of the garrison lord, the garrison lord's mansion has the might of a military general, and the two stone lions in front of the door are also majestic and mighty.
On the contrary, it couldn't arouse the joy of His Royal Highness the Prince, and coupled with a series of previous events, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had no good impression of the garrison's mansion that only glanced at him behind him.
Looking at the few big characters above the Taishou Mansion in front of him, he nodded with great satisfaction, as if he had a good understanding of these calligraphy.
How can you not realize it, His Royal Highness the Prince's calligraphy Xiao Boss Wang Mingji has too much, and this season's calligraphy of Lord Lin Ji is naturally also learned by Wang Mingji, which can be said to be in the same vein.
I don't know when the Taishou Mansion family around him who pressed him all the way here will disappear, and in front of the door, in addition to His Royal Highness the Prince, there is a middle-aged man who led him before.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was still stunned, and the middle-aged man stood quietly aside without urging, and at this time, his face did not have the power he had at the beginning, and he smiled silently.
Seeing that the person in front of him came back to his senses, the middle-aged man turned around and whispered, "Let's go." There was no emotion in the words, but it seemed to have changed a lot from the beginning.
"Ah, let's go, let's go. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince snorted lightly, and staggered up the stairs, the door had already opened, and the two walked into the mansion in front and back.
After the two entered the house, the door closed softly.
At the moment when the door closed, the middle-aged man walked inside with His Royal Highness the Prince, and in the red-pillared corridor where there was no one around, the middle-aged man suddenly turned around, knelt down with a bend of his knees, and did not give His Royal Highness the Crown Prince time to react, so he made such a big gift.
"Get up quickly, what are you doing?" said His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hurriedly stepped forward.
"Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to forgive the grass people for their previous sins, it is really helpless to offend, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not forgive, the grass people will not be able to afford it. The middle-aged man said righteously, with a straight face, and if he disagreed, he couldn't kneel for a long time.
Hearing this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was really a little surprised, although he had expected it before, but he didn't expect that he would really be seen through by this Ji Taishou, a classmate who had never met before.
I don't know how this Taishou Lord knew, but now is not the time to think about this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bent down and stretched out his hands forward, held the middle-aged man in his arms, and said in his mouth: "Forgive me, get up quickly." ”
Hearing this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was overjoyed, waved his hands on the top of his feet, brushed the dust off his knees, and then said loudly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince comes with me, please come here." The whole emotion has changed from the beginning to the present, from anger to expressionlessness, and then to the current joyful face, which has been changed again and again, but it has profoundly revealed how deep this middle-aged man's city government is.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince followed behind him and said, "I don't know if you are?" After so long, he didn't know the identity of the person in front of him, and asked curiously.
"Oh, I forgot, Caomin is the housekeeper of the Taishou Mansion, named Wei Quan, and he has been following the master for more than 20 years. The butler said with a smile.
"Oh, what are you talking about me?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked curiously, looking at the butler with interest, wondering what this classmate thought of him.
"Hehe, I don't dare to discuss this, let's wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to see the master and let him tell you. It seemed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had forgiven him for his previous offense, and then he also felt that His Royal Highness in front of him was very easy-going, and Steward Wei was a little less restrained, and said with a smile.
"It's fine. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't seem to care very much, so he responded casually, and instead looked at the scenery in the entire Taishou Mansion.
It didn't take much time to walk through this red-pillar corridor, through the rockery spring, and in front of a round door, there was already a person standing.
This person was dressed in white clothes, his face was thin but smiling, and he looked not young, about fifty or so.
Just after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Steward Wei appeared in the field of vision, this person hurriedly took a few steps forward, just like the previous Steward Wei, who was about to make a big salute to participate, and had already bowed down, before his knees hit the ground, he said in his mouth: "Chen Maicheng is too guarded by Ji Lin, and he has seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
However, how could His Royal Highness the Prince, who had already prepared, let Master Ji really kneel, he didn't like so much red tape, so he had already stepped forward to support Ji Taishou, and said: "I have heard the name of my senior brother for a long time, and my senior brother has been in good health recently." ”
This sentence of senior brother is counted from Wang Mingji, which is also appropriate.
"His Royal Highness is the crown prince, and the minister can't be this senior brother. Ji Lin hurriedly shook his head and said, his face was still a little panicked.
It stands to reason that this is indeed the case, since Wang Mingji is the teacher of His Royal Highness the Prince, he is the prince, and he, a former student, cannot call himself a student of Wang Mingji with His Royal Highness the Prince, so there is no rule of this senior brother, this is still the respect and humility established by the previous dynasty, and it has been followed until now.
"Then Lord Ji, I don't know what happened to Lord Ji, stop me and invite you to the Taishou Mansion. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not entangled in this.
"Your Highness, please, let's go into the room and talk about it in detail. Without these courtesies, Ji Lin instantly recovered the majesty of the Taishou of a city, and took His Royal Highness the Crown Prince into the house, and after the two left, the Wei Guanjia stood at the round gate, quietly guarding.
In the slightly larger study, the two sat separately.
Ignoring the previous questions, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was eager to know how the Lord Ji in front of him knew his identity. He asked.
"Ah, this is news from the Southern Road, Your Highness still remembers the inn that opened next to the post station. Ji Lin asked with a smile back.
His Royal Highness the Prince of that inn naturally remembered that it was opened by the eldest lady of the Nanshang Fang family, and now the eldest lady of the Nanshang Fang family must be the heir of the Nanshang Fang family.
Speaking of which, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows a little bit in his heart.
"Hehe, this minister is familiar with the Fang family, and by chance he learned that His Royal Highness had appeared with such a face, and with this knife and cow, he recognized the identity of His Royal Highness the Prince. Ji Lin continued to reply.
If this is the case, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nodded, but he didn't expect that this Ji Taishou in front of him was still familiar with the Nanshang Fang family.
This doubt was solved, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince continued to ask the previous question: "I didn't know that Lord Taishou invited me to come. ”
Just when these words fell, Ji Lin Ji Taishou actually left his seat, lifted his robe, and knelt on the ground again with a straight face, this time he knelt down, and His Royal Highness didn't help him again.
I only heard Lord Ji's mouth say: "First of all, please ask Your Highness to forgive the ministers for the crime of arguing in vain, and the ministers have important things to tell about the garrison of Wheat City." ”
"Not guilty,said. His Highness's expression was calm, and his heart was turbulent.
