Chapter 2103 A Visitor from the Second Prince
Prefect Liu would naturally not miss such an opportunity for revenge. He spoke to Sun Pu without hesitation and exaggerated the complaint against Shao Yunduan.
All of his and Master Miao's speculations became confirmed facts when they were told to Sun Pu.
What he said was well-reasoned and full of facts, so Sun Pu couldn't help but believe it.
Besides, Magistrate Liu is a powerful official of the fourth rank, in charge of a region. How could he possibly lie?
Sun Pu felt that the name Shao Yunduan was very familiar. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Shao Yunduan? Is he the number one scholar when the late emperor was still alive? The lackey of the prince?"
The Sun family supports the lineage of the second prince. As a descendant of the crown prince, Shao Yunduan was naturally in a hostile position towards the Sun family and the second prince.
If Shao Yunduan hadn't been in the way, the prince would have fallen long ago.
Naturally, Sun Pu also disliked Shao Yunduan.
When Prefect Liu heard this, he knew that his plan was right. He was secretly delighted and nodded quickly, "It's this man! He has ulterior motives and has other plans in mind! Otherwise, how could a top scholar and a big shot in front of the Crown Prince be willing to come here? He must be colluding with the bandits to suppress them! Those fierce bandits are now working for him!"
"I'm sorry to tell you this, General. I noticed something was wrong with him, so I sent someone to Anzezhou to ask him questions. But he felt guilty and not only did he not come, he also tried to kill the people I sent. Fortunately, someone escaped and came back to report. It shows that the law is long and nothing can escape it..."
"What? He is so bold!" Sun Pu was disgusted upon hearing this and sneered, "He is so pedantic and stupid, how can he be so arrogant! I want to see what he is so arrogant about."
Without His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what is he?
Prefect Liu had suffered a loss and lost face at the hands of Shao Yunduan, so when he heard this, he knew it was the right time to save his face. He had to let the other county magistrates under his jurisdiction see what the consequences would be if they disobeyed him and offended him.
He had to make an example of someone and get back his reputation.
"General, you are wise! Such a person is not worthy of the general's personal intervention. He has tarnished the general's reputation. Why don't I send someone to call him over, and then the general will interrogate him thoroughly."
Sun Pu had not originally planned to go to Anze Prefecture in person. How could a mere Shao Yunduan be worthy of him going there in person?
Their Sun family is the emperor's maternal family. When the emperor conquers the whole world, their Sun family will surely become the number one family in Daqin. He is the emperor's cousin, and he will definitely be made a marquis by then. How precious his status is!
Since Magistrate Liu is willing to serve, why should he stop him?
"In that case, you should quickly send someone to bring that Shao and his subordinates to me. I will interrogate them personally!"
"Yes, General!"
Prefect Liu was overjoyed and immediately went back to discuss it with Advisor Miao.
Master Miao thought about what he had seen and heard in Anzezhou City, and then thought about the miserable appearance of Captain Li and his group, and he still felt a little scared.
He didn't dare to go.
Even now that he has General Sun backing him up, he wouldn't dare!
It was obvious that Shao Zhizhou and his gang were not easy to mess with. What if they got angry and killed the people? Even if they could not escape the severe punishment of General Sun in the end, they would lose their lives.
