On the way back, Song Qianning kept thinking about what happened today and Ning Qiuze's strange behavior.
Song Qianning is not a fool, especially in some aspects, her perception is extremely sharp.
Unlike the previous prefect surnamed Sun, the new prefect Ning Qiuze seemed to dislike her and even targeted her.
Ever since going to court with that country woman today, Ning Qiuze seemed to have been targeting her.
If Qin Ye had not arrived in time, Ning Qiuze would have found an excuse to detain her.
According to the rules of the mortal government, even if the prefect wants to detain someone, he must have conclusive evidence.
But Ning Qiuze didn't even ask her a few questions. He concluded that she was guilty based on the few words of the village woman and wanted to detain her. It was clearly a targeting.
After thinking it over, Song Qianning turned her head to look at Qin Ye beside her.
After staring at Qin Ye for a while, until he couldn't help but look over, Song Qianning suddenly asked, "Mr. Qin, have you ever had a conflict with Ning Qiuze before?"
Qin Ye was taken aback for a moment when he heard Song Qianning's question. Then, realizing what she meant, he shook his head and denied it without a second thought: "No."
Under Song Qianning's doubtful gaze, Qin Ye spoke carefully: "Ning Qiuze and I are not familiar with each other, and I have some influence in the capital, so I shouldn't have any conflicts with him."
It is no exaggeration to say that the identities of Qin Ye and Ning Qiuze are completely different.
Ning Qiuze would only conflict with him if he went crazy.
Even if a conflict really occurs, no one would dare to do anything to him as long as Ning Qiuze is not stupid.
Song Qianning understood Qin Ye's hint and didn't find it strange. She had guessed earlier that Qin Ye's identity was not simple.
If you think about it carefully, Qin Ye is of extraordinary status, and Ning Qiuze is just a prefect. As long as you are not stupid, you will not dare to offend the other party easily.
Turning her eyes away from Qin Ye, Song Qianning fell into confusion again.
She had originally speculated that Ning Qiuze had had a conflict with Qin Ye and was afraid to offend Qin Ye, so he took his anger out on her.
Now that I was told that Qin Ye and Ning Qiuze had never had any conflict, it could only mean that he was targeting me.
Confused, Song Qianning murmured to herself, "This is really strange. I clearly didn't offend Ning Qiuze today, so why did he choose to target me..."
She had never met Ning Qiuze before he was promoted to prefect, and that day was the first time they met at the promotion banquet.
At first, Song Qianning also thought that it might be because of Ning's whispering that made Ning Qiuze deal with her, but as soon as this idea came up, she rejected it.
Ning Qiuze's attitude towards Qin Ye can be seen from his humble appearance in front of Qin Ye.
Just for Qin Ye's sake, he couldn't be so stupid as to target himself because of Ning's words or two.
Apart from the Ning family's matter, she was sure that she had never met Ning Qiuze on any occasion, let alone offended him. But why did the other party target her as soon as he saw her?
Everything that happened today was obviously wrong and strange.
Hearing Song Qianning's whisper, Qin Ye's heart moved, and he looked at her with a puzzled look on his face: "Miss Song, what do you mean by this?"
Coming back to her senses, Song Qianning looked at Qin Ye, who was puzzled, and couldn't help rolling her eyes: "Isn't this obvious?"
"Hmm?" Qin Ye's tone was even more puzzled: "Please help me, Miss Song."
Seeing this, Song Qianning reached out and started arguing with him seriously.
"First, there was the country woman who came to see me today. As soon as she saw me, she demanded compensation. Normally, someone who blackmails me like this would avoid the court, but she blackmailed me in public and took the initiative to bring the matter to court. It seemed like she wasn't afraid of being discovered at all, as if she was afraid that others would not know about it."
"Even in court, Ning Qiuze's attitude was very strange. He didn't ask me any questions at all and just let that country woman do all the talking."
"As the prefect, he must know the process of solving a case better than anyone else, but he deliberately ignored me and made a rash decision based on just a few words..."
After snapping her fingers, Song Qianning curled her lips and said disdainfully, "That country woman said her family had a stomachache. Ning Qiuze should have first found someone to investigate the truth before making a decision. In the end, he didn't even mention bringing the country woman's family."
"Later, not long after that village woman started crying and complaining, before he even knew the truth, he wanted to detain me. Anyone could see that something was amiss. Oh, and then there was the time when I asked to see a doctor."
"He repeatedly declined, clearly not wanting to invite the doctor over. It was as if he had already guessed something. His attitude towards me and the village woman was also very strange, as was the village woman's attitude. From the beginning to the end, it seemed like the two of them were targeting me the entire time. In the end, the doctor confirmed that the three people had underlying health problems, but he didn't even consider detaining them."
"Ning Qiuze can't possibly cause trouble for no reason. There must be some reason behind it."
After hearing what Song Qianning said, Qin Ye couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
What Song Qianning said just now was reasonable word by word, and almost revealed Ning Qiuze's little thoughts.
Today in court, the group of country women were indeed not quite right, and Ning Qiuze had been favoring them.
He appeared in court to support Song Qianning, but he didn't expect that Song Qianning's senses were so sharp.
If someone else encountered such a thing, they would at most think that they were unlucky and would not think too much about it.
Song Qianning was able to judge that Ning Qiuze and the country woman's family had bad intentions through some tiny details, and seemed to guess that the country woman's family came deliberately to cause trouble.
After the surprise faded, Qin Ye looked at Song Qianning with a deeper look, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Song Qianning seemed... smarter than he thought.
Without revealing his thoughts, Qin Ye looked at Song Qianning with feigned curiosity: "According to what Miss Song said, there is indeed something strange about Ning Qiuze and that country woman's family. I wonder what your plans are next?"
However, Song Qianning did not directly answer Qin Ye's question. She stroked her chin with her hand, her face full of mystery. "After today, the grudge is taken. I will definitely not do nothing and be bullied by them."
If you want to bully a fish, you have to see whether the fish agrees or not.
…
That night, Qin Ye suddenly opened his eyes and looked beside him.
Song Qianning was sleeping soundly next to him with a smile on her face, as if she was having a sweet dream.
After making sure that the person was asleep, Qin Ye got out of bed and left the room.
Chang Qing was waiting in the courtyard. Upon seeing Qin Ye, he immediately stepped forward and whispered, "Master."
Qin Ye nodded to him: "Let's go."
After leaving the yard, Qin Ye followed Chang Qing back to his original residence.
Arriving at the study, Chang Qing closed the door and handed over a small note: "Please take a look, Master."
