Chapter 245 Is this what a human being would say?
"What?!!"
Song Jiuyuan cooperated by pretending to be surprised, and then looked at Prefect Ye with cold eyes.
"Prefect Ye, is this true?"
Prefect Ye stood up calmly and said, "It is true. I am sending people to search for him.
It is only because the missing persons are all women, and I am worried that it will affect their reputation, so I have been hiding this matter. "
Magistrate Ye is indeed a seasoned veteran, his excuses are so perfect.
Jiang Wan's hand holding the chopsticks paused slightly, and she successfully saw the hatred in the eyes of Liu Tongpan and Xu Tongzhi opposite her.
Wow, another internal conflict, so fun.
As expected, Judge Liu could no longer bear it and asked, "Sir, did you really send someone to look for him?"
Although the prefect never explicitly said that he was the one who abducted their families, they knew it in their hearts.
Prefect Ye sighed apologetically, "Of course I have looked for it, but I haven't found it yet."
"Oh……"
Judge Liu sneered, turned to Song Jiuyuan and asked, "Your Majesty, please help me find my family."
"And the subordinates!"
Xu Tongzhi also knelt in front of Song Jiuyuan, and Prefect Ye narrowed his eyes in shock.
Song Jiuyuan put down the wine glass in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Xu Tongzhi's family members are also missing?"
"yes!"
Xu Tongzhi didn't dare to meet Prefect Ye's eyes, and only said dejectedly:
"Madam's beloved daughter disappeared together with the magistrate's wife."
As soon as these words came out, two or three more people knelt down and asked Song Jiuyuan for help.
Of course, there are also those who are afraid of Magistrate Ye and are afraid that something might happen to their family members, so they dare not express their opinions.
The atmosphere was a little cold for a moment. This was because Governor Ye was secretly forcing these officials to take sides.
He knelt in front of Song Jiuyuan in distress, "Your Majesty, I have really tried my best to find it.
If Your Majesty has this ability, please help us find it."
Are you trying to roast Song Jiuyuan on the fire rack?
Jiang Wan glanced at Ye Huan who was peeling hazelnuts in a wronged manner, gently put down her chopsticks, and looked at Song Jiuyuan with pretended concern.
"Your Majesty, you have just arrived in the city and are not very familiar with Jiuzhou..."
"The princess is right, Yuan'er, you have to do what you can."
Mrs. Song is also a talented actress, and she appropriately reveals a worried look.
Pan Liu was worried. Was his decision correct?
Old man Ouyang, who had been eating and drinking voraciously as soon as the dishes were served, put down his chopsticks and said cheerfully:
"Junior sister, you don't have to worry. The prince is so powerful, he has his own considerations."
Because Jiang Wan and Madam Song were sitting in the same direction, everyone thought that the junior sister that old man Ouyang called was Madam Song.
Everyone knew it, but no one corrected it.
At this moment, Qingshan, who had left halfway, suddenly turned back and whispered something in Song Jiuyuan's ear.
Jiang Wan calmed down, raised her hand, picked up a hazelnut that Xu Huan had peeled and put it into her mouth.
"good."
Ye Huan's blood pressure soared due to anger, but he dared not say anything. He could only think secretly in his heart that he would wait for his father to deal with the prince.
She will be able to become the most noble lady in the city again, and then she will lock Song Jiuyuan up in her yard!
Jiang Wan had no idea about Ye Huan's crazy idea. After peeling the hazelnuts, Jiang Wan casually pushed a plate of walnuts in front of Ye Huan.
"These walnuts look good. Your Majesty likes them. Please peel some more."
Ye Huan's face was distorted and she almost lost her composure. She was just seen by Prefect Ye, who gave her a look asking her to be patient.
Ye Huan could only continue to peel the walnuts reluctantly, and several of her beautiful fingernails were broken.
At this moment, there was a look of pride in Governor Ye's lowered eyes, and he clasped his hands slightly.
"My Lord, please save me!"
After saying this, he glanced at Liu Tongpan with a slightly smug look, wanting to betray him in front of him.
Oh……
Then let’s start with the judge’s family.
"You do have confidence in this king."
Song Jiuyuan's mouth was tinged with sarcasm, and then he smiled and said: "Coincidentally, before entering the city, this king did save a few people.
I don’t know if they are the relatives of any of you.”
When these words were spoken, Governor Ye was startled, but he quickly calmed down.
This must be a trap set deliberately by Song Jiuyuan.
He couldn't jump in, so he pretended to be surprised and said, "Really? Maybe this is really possible."
A total of six officials' families were missing, and at this moment they all couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation.
Qiu Niang poured a cup of tea for Jiang Wan, "Master, be careful of the heat."
"Um."
Jiang Wan's beautiful and slender fingertips passed in front of Ye Huan. She glanced at her injured fingers again, and her heart was suddenly filled with resentment.
Then she thought of her father's plan. Although she didn't know the details, she believed that her father would be able to control the prince.
So she looked at Prefect Ye with full anticipation, waiting for him to show Song Jiuyuan a warning.
"Qingshan, go and bring someone in."
There was a hint of smile in Song Jiuyuan's elegant eyes, which gave Prefect Ye a bad feeling.
No way, he clearly asked that person to hide so well, how could Song Jiuyuan find those people.
After comforting himself, Prefect Ye waited to see Song Jiuyuan slap him in the face.
However, Liu Tongpan and others, although they had some doubts about Song Jiuyuan's ability, still couldn't help but have some expectations.
Amidst everyone's nervous mood, Qingshan walked in with a group of female relatives.
It was quite far away, so no one looked at it carefully at first. It was not until they got closer that Judge Liu exclaimed.
"lady!"
"Husband!"
"father!!!"
“…”
The person outside came in trotting, and the people inside the room couldn't wait to go out to greet him.
At this time, Governor Ye's face looked extremely ugly, and he felt that his face was painful from being hit.
There was no need to take sides at this moment. Even his people were so excited to see their relatives that they couldn't control themselves.
He couldn't help but secretly curse Boss Peng in his heart, saying he couldn't even handle a small thing, what a waste!
"So they really are your family members."
The corners of Song Jiuyuan's mouth curled up slightly, and Jiang Wan couldn't help but think that if he had a tail, he would definitely say this with pride.
"Thank you, my Lord, for saving my wife!"
Pan Liu pulled Madam Xu to kneel in front of Song Jiuyuan. He was a lovesick man, and Madam Xu had no children in her life.
But he still held Madam Xu in the palm of his hand. When he saw his wife at this moment, he was filled with favor from Song Jiuyuan.
Only then did the rescued people realize that the person in front of them was actually the prince!
Were they saved by the prince?
The women were dumbfounded, but they knelt obediently in front of Song Jiuyuan.
There was a young girl who couldn't help but secretly glance at Song Jiuyuan, and then her face turned red.
Jiang Wan let out a click of the tongue, and the walnut in her hand was suddenly crushed.
A hint of horror flashed in Ye Huan's eyes. She...she actually crushed a walnut?
That’s right, it’s not just squeezing it open, it’s crushing the flesh as well.
Jiang Wan touched the tip of her nose uncomfortably and threw the walnut on the table.
"Your walnut shells are too brittle."
Ye Huan: ...
Look, is this what a human being says? Her fingers are almost bleeding!
