Chapter 211 Has this person really become a worm in her stomach now?
Song Jiuyuan tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingertips, exchanged a glance with Jiang Wan, and then spoke softly:
"Bring it here for me to see."
The chief clerk hurriedly and carefully handed it to Qingshan, and then continued to kneel nervously.
After reading it, Song Jiuyuan nodded slightly, "I can see that you put some thought into it.
Then you will temporarily take over the affairs of Qucheng County Magistrate and handle the affairs of Qucheng."
The county magistrate, who had been pretending to be a coward just now, was immediately shocked and reminded Song Jiuyuan in a low voice.
"Your Highness, he is just a clerk on weekdays, I'm afraid he is not good at these."
He was the magistrate's deputy and was more familiar with the matter. Moreover, he was of the eighth rank and should have been ranked ahead of the chief clerk, who was of the ninth rank.
Hearing this, the chief clerk raised his head slightly, his teeth clattering, and a hint of indifference flashed through his heart.
It's always like this. How many jobs has County Magistrate Zhou taken away from him?
Is it going to be like this again this time?
Sun Zhubo's heart was full of hatred. At this time, he heard Song Jiuyuan looking at Zhou Xiancheng with a smile and saying.
"You can manage it if you want. Why don't you show me your good plan for dealing with the snowstorm?"
County Magistrate Zhou stood there in a daze, while Chief Clerk Sun was overwhelmed by a huge joy.
He didn't care what County Magistrate Zhou was feeling, he knelt on the ground and said loudly:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will do my best."
This was his chance to show off, and he would never miss it. Sun Zhubo looked at Zhou Xiancheng provocatively.
County Prime Minister Zhou's temples were beating so hard with anger. Just as he was about to speak, Song Jiuyuan said nonchalantly:
"As for you, you are responsible for handling Magistrate Fu's funeral. If anyone says something wrong, he will end up like you."
Those few short sentences were like a fatal knife, and County Magistrate Zhou had no time to think about anything else.
"Your Highness, I...I can't guarantee...that Madam Fu won't say anything nonsense."
"That's your business."
Song Jiuyuan's nonchalant tone made County Magistrate Zhou feel uncomfortable.
This is not a cowardly prince at all, he is clearly the devil who demands death!
"I'll do my best... I'll do my best."
County Magistrate Zhou felt that he was doomed and thought of eight hundred ways to escape.
But when he met Song Jiuyuan's eyes that seemed to know everything, his legs suddenly went weak.
County Magistrate Zhou was driven away first, and Song Jiuyuan assigned the matter to Chief Clerk Sun.
It was not until the two left that Song Qing looked at Song Jiuyuan with disapproval.
"Yuan'er, was Magistrate Fu your work?"
"It's me."
Song Jiuyuan did not intend to hide it in front of his family. Chen Ce was in the house taking care of Mrs. Chen and the two children and was not there at the moment.
Song Qing frowned, "Yuan'er, he is an official appointed by the imperial court."
That man was not a good person, and his death was not a pity, but he was worried that he would find something to hold against Yuan'er.
"Don't worry, Dad. I have a plan in mind."
Song Jiuyuan had thought about this matter a long time ago, if he followed the rules.
It may not be so easy to control the Nine Continents, so killing the chicken to scare the monkey is the fastest way.
Unable to persuade him to come in, Song Qing could only sigh helplessly. Jiang Wan spoke at the right time:
"Daddy, let me give you an acupuncture."
Song Qing's health is seriously weak. Since Jiang Wan is still here, she will slowly nurse him back to health.
"Okay."
Song Qing nodded slightly, and now he had great confidence in Jiang Wan's medical skills.
After taking a dose of medicine, I felt much more energetic.
Madam Song accompanied Song Qing back to the house, where Jiang Wan was giving acupuncture.
Song Jiuyuan instructed Song Yi, "According to the time, Ren Bang and the others will be here soon.
The entire Qucheng is full of Magistrate Fu's people, and Sun Zhubo should not act so quickly. You go to the city gate to pick up Ren Bang and the others."
Ren Bang is not from Qucheng, so he can be his helper after coming in.
"Yes, then where should they be placed?"
Song Yi didn't dare to act recklessly. Song Jiuyuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's arrange for them to stay at the inn in the city."
Ren Bang's task was to escort the exiles, and he couldn't separate them.
Song Jiuyuan gave some more instructions, and Song Yi left. After a while, Jiang Wan came out of the house.
"Why are you still here?"
Jiang Wan was a little puzzled. Qucheng was so chaotic, and she thought he would be busy and exhausted.
"Everything has been arranged."
Song Jiuyuan probably knew how to read people's minds, so he answered Jiang Wan's question directly.
Jiang Wan: ...
Has this person really become a worm in her stomach now?
Just as Jiang Wan was about to speak, Qingshan came running in and said with an unpleasant look on his face:
"Your Majesty, Sun Zhubo is looking for you. It seems that he brought a lot of wealthy businessmen with him."
"I see."
Song Jiuyuan softened his voice and said to Jiang Wan, "I'll go over and take a look. You take a good rest."
He knew that Jiang Wan would consume a lot of energy every time she gave acupuncture.
"Well, you go first."
Jiang Wan watched Song Jiuyuan leave, then turned to Qiu Niang and said, "Qiu Niang, before you do anything, go find people inside and outside the city to spread the news.
The prince was not sent by the emperor to solve the disaster, he was exiled to receive a fiefdom.
Besides, Magistrate Fu died suddenly, and it has nothing to do with the prince."
Even after the divorce, she and Song Jiuyuan were still friends. Song Jiuyuan worked hard, and the people might think it was an order from the emperor.
Song Jiuyuan will be so frustrated then.
Therefore, Jiang Wan wanted to nip these things in the bud and also let other people who were watching see how to stand on the side.
"Yes, Master."
Qiu Niang didn't understand why Jiang Wan did this, but as a qualified servant, she asked less questions and did more.
She left the post station with the silver and money, while Jiang Wan went to the place where Song Jiuyuan received guests with a heavy heart.
At this time, Song Jiuyuan looked at the wealthy businessmen kneeling in a row in front of him, his fingertips lightly pointing at the sword, his lips slightly raised.
"Master Sun said you want to see me?"
"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't know how to appreciate your kindness, it's just that I don't have much food left at home."
"Yes, we common people have no shortage of silver, but the main thing is that silver cannot buy food now."
"I...I was robbed by the unruly people who entered the city a few days ago. I can't even protect my home."
“…”
When these people learned that Sun Zhubo had called on everyone to raise funds, they all came to Song Jiuyuan to complain.
Sun Zhubo's face turned black. "Didn't you say you were here to collect donations? Why are you talking about this now?!!"
He was a little annoyed. He didn't expect that the first time he did something would go wrong.
I am truly sorry for your trust.
"We are from Qucheng, and we want to do more good things for Qucheng, but we are powerless."
"Yes, where can we find food now?"
“…”
"Your Highness is coming from Kyoto, you can't be without any preparations, right?"
Someone pointed the finger at Song Jiuyuan. Qingshan was a little worried and said hurriedly:
"Your Majesty knows how to act and will definitely not mistreat the people!"
He had heard the prince instructing Song Yi to buy food before.
"Everyone knows how to say nice things."
Someone muttered something, and Song Jiuyuan's eyes fell on one of them.
The man was dressed gorgeously and had a fat figure. There was some resentment in his eyes when he looked at Song Jiuyuan.
But when she met his eyes, she quickly retracted her neck and pretended not to see it.
Sun Zhubo saw this and whispered in Song Jiuyuan's ear:
"Your Highness, the one who just spoke was County Magistrate Fu's eldest brother-in-law, Master Qian."
