Chapter 160 With this reason, I should not be punished by the emperor
The back hall of the government office.
"Your Excellency, I saw the Prime Minister and the people from the Zhou Mansion leave the guest room."
Upon hearing this, Fan Qijun immediately put down the documents in his hand and said, "Haha, I finally got rid of these freeloaders."
Master Guo looked at Fan Qijun, who looked very proud, and shook his head helplessly.
He is the prime minister of the current dynasty. If you leave him aside, you don't have to worry about him making things difficult for you.
"Let's go and see off the Prime Minister and the escorting officials." Fan Qijun said, and couldn't help laughing a few times.
There were so many people coming, all of them grown men, he couldn't afford to entertain them all.
Although there was grain in his granary, he didn't want to worry about their meals.
After leaving the back hall, Fan Qijun said to Master Guo with a smug look on his face, "Oh! The Prime Minister's visit to the Zhou residence is enough for the Zhou family to brag about for the rest of their lives."
"Besides, the Zhou Mansion is very wealthy, and providing the Prime Minister with various supplements will also help him recover from his injuries."
"Unlike our government office, alas, we are so poor that we can barely make ends meet!"
Master Guo suddenly felt that what Fan Qijun said made a lot of sense, "Your Excellency is wise!"
Thinking of Jiang Yunyao, Master Guo asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Sir, how did the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion end up in Jizhou?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Qijun pulled Master Guo to a corner.
He looked around warily and whispered, "It's hard to say about this matter."
"This government believes that the father and daughter came to Jizhou this time with some purpose."
An idea suddenly struck Master Guo, and he said mysteriously, "They, father and daughter, must be here for Master Xiao."
"You and I have the same idea." After Fan Qijun finished speaking, a yamen runner came running over in a hurry.
"Your Excellency, the Zhou family and the Prime Minister have already left the government office."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Qijun hurriedly urged Master Guo, "Hurry up and leave, otherwise Prime Minister Jiang will think we don't welcome them!"
Mr. Guo and the yamen runners: “…”
Sir, you don’t welcome me in the first place!
Fan Qijun hurried out of the government office and bowed to Jiang Qinian, who was about to get on the carriage, saying, "Your humble servant respectfully sends you off, Lord Prime Minister."
The moment he lowered his eyes, Fan Qijun showed a big smile.
Finally, I've gotten rid of you, old bastard.
Maybe it was because of the angle, Jiang Qinian did not miss the corner of Fan Qijun's lips.
Humph! This bastard official is just hoping they can get back to Beijing!
Jiang Qinian stopped and snorted coldly, "Master Fan, you are busy and exhausted every day because of the drought. I will not stay and cause more trouble."
"I believe the loss of the disaster relief grain and the loss of grain from the town's grain store were caused by the same person."
"Therefore, before I return to the capital, I must thoroughly investigate this matter so that I can report to the Emperor upon my return."
With this reason, I should not be punished by the emperor!
After hearing this, Fan Qijun secretly complained: Go check it out quickly!
If you can find it out, you're awesome.
"I hope the Prime Minister will thoroughly investigate this matter and give those grain shop owners justice."
Jiang Qinian restrained his expression, turned around and got on the carriage.
The Zhou family successfully climbed up to the Prime Minister's Mansion and were so proud of themselves.
After Jiang Qinian boarded the carriage, Mr. Zhou walked up to Fan Qijun with his back straight and saluted with a proud look on his face, saying, "Master Fan, our Zhou family will take good care of the Prime Minister's relatives."
"Also, I will arrange for the accompanying officials to stay at the farm, so Sir Fan can rest assured!"
Fan Qijun looked at the wealthy Mr. Zhou and raised his eyebrows. "In that case, I'll trouble you, Mr. Zhou."
Tsk tsk! Look at how proud you are.
Do you really think you can become successful by getting into the Prime Minister's Mansion? You're thinking too much.
That old scoundrel Jiang Qinian married his daughter to your son, he must have other motives.
He should be a pawn stationed in Jizhou, keeping an eye on that gentleman...
Fan Qijun watched the group leave and said happily, "Okay, let's go back!"
Since someone is trying to please you, satisfy him.
The carriage slowly drove towards the town.
Jiang Qinian saw the people coming and going through the gap in the carriage curtain, and suddenly felt that these people did not look like they could not afford to eat.
He raised his hand to lift the car curtain and looked at the several grain shops open on the roadside, with a forehead full of question marks.
Suddenly, Jiang Qinian remembered what the postman said at the post station.
From this we can see that the people who stole the grain were trying to intimidate the grain shop owners who wanted to take advantage of the drought to make a fortune.
Moreover, they were successful in this move.
The Zhou family was eager to tell everyone about how they had gotten into the Prime Minister's Mansion.
They lifted the curtains of their cars and greeted the people with a smile.
For this reason, the people smiled on their faces, but had already greeted his whole family in their hearts.
Bah! Isn't it just climbing up to the Prime Minister's Mansion?
What are you showing off for!
Zhou Zexuan in the carriage looked at Jiang Yunyao with lustful eyes, and said with a smug look on his face, "Yao'er, even if you don't agree, your father-in-law will still marry you to me, Zhou Zexuan."
Haha, I finally succeeded in climbing up to the Prime Minister’s Mansion.
His friends will definitely come to curry favor with him.
Jiang Yunyao sneered when she heard this, "Zhou Zexuan, think about how to arrange for your wife and son first!"
Humph! If I'm not happy, none of you will be happy either.
As soon as he finished speaking, the smile on Zhou Zexuan's face gradually disappeared.
After a moment of silence, he said in a negotiating tone, "After returning home, I will give her a divorce letter, and Shuo'er will be handed over to you to raise."
"I will also give those concubines books."
Jiang Yunyao heard this and a ferocious smile flashed across her face. "You can keep those concubines. I will take good care of your son."
Zhou Zexuan looked at Jiang Yunyao's docile appearance and could not hide his inner joy. "Okay, I'll listen to you, Yao'er."
In front of Jiangji Grain Shop.
After seeing enough of the excitement, Steward Lin and his companions decided to return to Huaxi Village.
When they saw the carriage and officials not far away, they knew that Jiang Qinian and the Zhou family had returned to the town.
Sheng Yunshao was standing at the door talking to Jiang Ruo and the others. Hearing the noisy sounds not far away, he couldn't help but look over.
"Girl, tell me, that old bastard Jiang Qinian wouldn't really leave his stinky daughter in Jizhou, would he?"
Tsk tsk, what a cruel heart!
Jiang Ruo snorted coldly upon hearing this, "This old man only cares about power now, what does his daughter mean to him?"
"The moment the bastard was demoted, Jiang Qinian jumped out and severed the father-daughter relationship with me."
"This time he left Jiang Yunyao in Jizhou just to monitor us."
I have to say that Jiang Qinian has a really big heart.
After listening to this, Sheng Yunshao looked at the carriage that was approaching with disdain.
When the carriage passed by Jiangji Grain Shop, Jiang Qinian in the carriage suddenly saw Sheng Yunshao's face.
Does this person look familiar?
Moreover, Jiang Ruo also called him "Daddy".
Jiang Qinian closed his eyes and searched his memory for this face...
He seems to be that... Doctor Sheng.
Yes, it's him.
No wonder the emperor couldn’t find him?
It turned out that he was hiding in Jizhou.
"Girl, let's go back to the village first. If anything happens, send someone back to inform us." Sheng Yunshao said as he stepped onto the carriage.
Jiang Ruo waved at Sheng Yunshao and said, "Dad, I will definitely let you know if there is good news."
Jiang Qinian pricked up his ears to listen to their conversation, as if he understood something.
It must be Sheng Yunshao’s credit that Xiao Chengjin was able to wake up.
Forget it! He can just pretend he doesn't know about Sheng Yunshao's matter!
