Chapter 1052 What business does County Magistrate Zhang have with me?
Meng Yunzheng stepped forward and took the box containing the jade ruyi from Shu Yu's hand. "Give it to me, I'll take it back."
"good."
The Lu family happily and excitedly carried the gifts home, while the onlookers stared blankly, none of them able to utter a sound.
After delivering the gift to Wei Nan, he seemed to remember that there was something he hadn't finished doing.
He finally turned around and looked back at Lady Zhang.
The latter looked at Shu Yu in horror, her legs trembling. She could only stand by being supported by the maids and old women behind her, otherwise she would have fallen to the ground.
A flicker of surprise crossed Xiang Weinan's face, and he quickly stepped forward. "Oh, what's wrong, Princess Zhang? Are you feeling unwell?"
"...I, I, no, I'm not feeling unwell. No, I'm feeling a little unwell. I'll go back now; I need to go home and see a doctor."
She had no desire to complain or punish Shu Yu anymore; she just wished she could disappear on the spot and be invisible to everyone.
County Magistrate Zhang swallowed hard and quickly stood up to leave.
To her surprise, someone was standing in front of her. Shu Yu smiled and said, "Is Princess Zhang not feeling well? It would be best if you didn't move around too much. Please sit down first. Luckily, my future brother-in-law is a highly skilled doctor. Let him take a look at you."
Future brother-in-law?
Zhao Xi's eyes lit up, and without saying a word, he grabbed a small stool and ran over.
"Yes, I am a doctor, Lady Zhang. Let me take a look at you. You're not feeling well, so we don't want you to leave, do we?"
As he was about to take her pulse, Zhang County Princess's expression changed drastically. She abruptly withdrew her hand and took two steps back. "No, no, no, it's alright. I'm fine now. I don't feel uncomfortable at all."
"real?"
County Magistrate Zhang nodded repeatedly, "Really, really, really."
Xiang Weinan breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that County Princess Zhang is alright. Tell me, what urgent matter did you come to me about? You seemed very anxious. If County Princess Zhang has suffered any grievances or disrespect since coming to Jiangyuan County, you must tell me, and I will stand up for you."
County Magistrate Zhang opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word. How could she dare to let Xiang Weinan make a decision for her?
Not only did Lu Shuyu receive gifts from Lord Qi and Lord Yao from the capital, but she also received a reward from the Emperor.
The difference between her and my treatment is like night and day. So what if she's a county princess? The emperor probably doesn't even remember her anymore.
I originally thought Lu Shuyu was the same as me, no, even worse than me.
A peasant girl from the countryside, by chance, received a valuable gift and presented it to the emperor, which led to her being granted the title of village lord. However, she remained powerless and without influence. Not only were her relatives and friends from the countryside, but they also became a burden to her.
How could a mere village head like her compare?
But now it seems that this village lady carries far more weight than she, the county princess.
“Princess Zhang? Why aren’t you saying anything? What important matter did you come to me about just now?” Xiang Weinan asked seriously, as if he really wanted to help her.
County Magistrate Zhang's eyes darted around, she chuckled dryly, and thought she should quickly find an excuse to leave.
However, before she could speak, Ding Yuehua said, "Lord Xiang, County Princess Zhang said that Lady Lu was disrespectful and had acted insubordinately towards her superiors. She should be punished severely as a warning, and they should even threaten to kill her."
County Magistrate Zhang suddenly raised her head and glared fiercely at Ding Yuehua.
