The reason why he could tolerate Song Qianning for so long was because Qin Ye was by his side.
Seeing that she dared to be so relentless, Ning Qiuze's eyebrows twitched fiercely and his impatience grew even stronger.
She was just an ordinary woman, it would have been fine if she didn't know when to quit, but she actually dared to be so presumptuous in front of him, a prefect. If Qin Ye hadn't been there to protect her, he would have detained her and given her dozens of lashes with the cane.
Ning Qiuze's tone became harsh due to his impatience. He looked at Song Qianning and said angrily, "Song Qianning, it's good that I'm willing to help deal with it."
"Do you know how many matters I, as the prefect, have to deal with every day? I was able to take the time to deal with this case today because you are pitiful. Do you think I can handle everything? I have no way to deal with the things you mentioned. Besides, I don't have that much time to waste with you..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sneer came from the side.
Qin Ye's lips curled up, as if with a hint of smile, but more of it was coldness. He looked at Ning Qiuze without any emotion, as if he was looking at a dead person: "Ning Fuyin, please be aware of your identity."
When Ning Qiuze met Qin Ye's eyes, he felt a chill on his back and shuddered all over.
The remaining words were stuck in my throat, and my heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of my chest.
He was so busy venting his anger that he almost forgot that Qin Ye was sitting next to him.
Trying hard to suppress his pounding heart, Ning Qiuze immediately straightened his back, his expression changing as he said sternly, "Song Qianning, don't worry."
"As a parent official, I naturally take the people's affairs seriously. Now that you have come to me, I will see to it."
Hearing this, Song Qianning still had a smile on her face: "What do you think of my proposal, Lord Prefect?"
While secretly cursing Song Qianning for being ignorant, Ning Qiuze said seriously, "I've heard of your shop. The prices are fair, and the food tastes good. It's truly a shop that's good value for money."
"Today, this country woman and her family dared to use cooked food to cause trouble. They are truly heinous and despicable. I will not let them off easily. Similarly, if anyone comes to your shop to cause trouble in the future, I will not let them off either."
"No matter who dares to cause trouble in your shop again in the future, I will deal with it seriously and will not let the troublemaker go!"
He looked serious, but he was making subtle promises.
Hearing Ning Qiuze's words, Song Qianning rolled her eyes in her heart.
Ning Qiuze kept mentioning "next time" in his words, but did not mention the verdict at all.
Even if someone really causes trouble next time, how to deal with it will depend entirely on his wishes.
Moreover, Song Qianning knew clearly that if Qin Ye had not been there, Ning Qiuze would never be able to seek justice for her given her nature. She might have been arrested and detained according to the original verdict, or even tortured into confessing.
Before Song Qianning could refute, Qin Ye beside her spoke first, his tone impatient: "Ning Fu Yin."
When Qin Ye's voice rang out beside him, Ning Qiuze's expression immediately changed, full of respect and flattery: "Sir, what are your instructions?"
Qin Ye's gaze fell on Ning Qiuze, and his voice was cold: "I'm curious, why did Governor Ning only tell Miss Song about the next time, but not how to deal with today's matter? Or has Governor Ning never thought about resolving today's matter at all?"
Ning Qiuze's smile froze when his little trick was exposed, but he didn't dare to admit it. He immediately smiled apologetically and said, "Your Excellency, you have misunderstood. I absolutely did not mean that."
Qin Ye was too lazy to listen to Ning Qiuze's nonsense and interrupted him directly, saying in a cold voice: "Now let's talk about today's matter. Please give us a result as soon as possible, otherwise..."
It was only a short sentence, but it made Ning Qiuze feel a sense of oppression. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his smile became more and more stiff, and his waist bent involuntarily.
Sensing Qin Ye's impatience, Ning Qiuze didn't dare to delay any longer.
He took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. His hands that were holding the table turned slightly white, of course, from holding his breath.
With Qin Ye sitting beside him, even though Ning Qiuze was extremely angry with Song Qianning, he didn't dare to express it and had to suppress it.
Then, he looked at Song Qianning and said loudly: "What happened today was caused by the cruelty of this family, and it has had a huge impact on the reputation of your shop..."
He spoke a long and eloquent nonsense until Qin Ye frowned beside him. Ning Qiuze suddenly realized and immediately stopped his nonsense and said, "Later, I will approve the official document to confirm that Wangya Delicatessen has no quality issues and is a conscientious store."
Unlike Ning Qiuze who was angry, Song Qianning was extremely happy and quickly made her own plans in her mind.
Once Ning Qiuze approves the official document, all the negative impact caused by this matter will disappear.
More importantly, with Ning Qiuze's official document, it means that his shop is tied to him.
In an era when the people do not fight against officials, the words of officials are equivalent to prestige.
Especially in a small place like this, the prefect's words are almost the same as an imperial edict.
No matter why Ning Qiuze approved the official document, in the eyes of the people, their delicatessen was a place that even the prefect had personally confirmed, so the business would naturally become prosperous.
In addition, after the shop and Ning Qiuze were tied together, if any problems occurred in the shop in the future, it would be equivalent to Ning Qiuze's own failure to supervise it properly, which would affect his own reputation.
Just for the sake of his own reputation, he has to be honest.
If something happens to the shop in the future, he might be even more anxious than I am.
Faced with the unexpected outcome, Song Qianning smiled sincerely, her voice filled with joy: "The prefect is indeed a fair man and will not favor criminals."
In a happy mood, Song Qianning generously praised Ning Qiuze before leaving with satisfaction.
After Song Qianning left, Qin Ye also stood up, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at Ning Qiuze.
"Prefect Ning, as a prefect, you must not be biased and favor the guilty party, otherwise this official robe will be replaced..."
Qin Ye didn't say the rest of the words. He looked at Ning Qiuze deeply before leaving with his men.
It was not until Qin Ye's figure disappeared in the court that Ning Qiuze seemed to lose his support and collapsed there with a pale face.
What Qin Ye had not yet said was clearly that if he dared to cause trouble again, someone else would have to wear this official robe.
Thinking of Qin Ye's obvious warning, Ning Qiuze clenched his teeth tightly and his whole body was heaving.
Because of Qin Ye's extraordinary identity, Ning Qiuze felt not only frightened but also annoyed.
When Ning Qiuze noticed the country woman and her family in the hall, he didn't care about them at all as much as he cared about Qin Ye. He picked up the things on the table and threw them at them.
"A bunch of idiots!"?
