After accompanying Qi Ji to act out this drama and catching several corrupt officials in the court, it was time for Jiang 깇yue to return home.
Qi Ji gave orders early in the morning to let the advance troops set out to Shuhe County to inform the officials in charge to welcome the arrival of the King of Chu in advance.
The advance troops were much faster than Jiang Xiaoyue and arrived in Shuhe County several years earlier than her.
When the county magistrate heard that the court had sent someone, he hurriedly brought everyone in the county to greet him.
"Shuhe County Magistrate, listen to my order. His Royal Highness the King of Chu will soon arrive in Shuhe County. You must not neglect him."
The county magistrate was dumbfounded. Why would the prince come to a small place like Shuhe? It was far away from the capital, with high mountains and deep waters. Why did the prince come all the way here?
Besides, who is His Royal Highness the King of Chu? I have never heard of him!
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was personally appointed as a prince of a different surname by the new emperor when he ascended the throne. His status is extremely noble, second only to the emperor and above everyone else!"
The county magistrate quickly saluted and said, "I understand, and I will definitely not neglect His Royal Highness the King of Chu."
After placing the advance troops at the official post station, the county magistrate quickly got busy with the reception of the prince.
Our Shuhe County is small, usually, not to mention the prince, even the prefect has never been here, and now suddenly such a person comes, we are really terrified.
The forerunner said that His Royal Highness the King of Chu was of extraordinary status, second only to the emperor and above all others. If he offended 놛, I'm afraid 놛's position as a county magistrate would be over.
In order to welcome the King of Chu, the county magistrate had not slept well for several nights. It was not until someone rode a fast horse into the city and said that the King of Chu's entourage would be here soon that he put on his official uniform and went out of the city to welcome him.
The people of Shuhe County had long heard that the prince was coming to their county, and they all poured out of the city, waiting to see the prince's face.
To the common people, the prince from the capital was a figure that could only be mentioned in storybooks. Now that they could see the real person, everyone wanted to squeeze forward, fearing that they could not see clearly.
The yamen runners formed a human wall to stop the people from pushing forward. The county magistrate stood in the middle, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve from time to time.
Finally, a procession of honor appeared before them, with the word "Chu" (Chu) written on the flag in the front.
Seeing the procession approaching, the county magistrate hurriedly led the officials and the common people to kneel down and perform the ritual of three kowtows.
At this moment, a voice came out, "You don't have to kneel down, get up."
The county magistrate suddenly felt that the voice was extremely familiar, as if it was someone he knew.
Jiang 깇月 lifted the curtain of the carriage and walked out directly.
The county magistrate was stunned. The person who walked out of the carriage of His Royal Highness the King of Chu was actually Jiang 꺶꽬!
"My dear county magistrate, I haven't seen you for a long time. How have you been lately?"
It seemed like several months had passed since Jiang Xiaoyue went to the capital. The county magistrate was stunned for a moment before nodding, "Okay, okay, everything is fine."
After that, the county magistrate finally responded and asked hurriedly, "Jiang Xiaoxiao, how did you get out of the carriage of His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu? Where is the prince?"
The guard beside Jiang Yue immediately shouted, "How dare you! The person in front of you is the honorable Prince Chu!"
The county magistrate was completely stunned, and all the officials around him were also stunned. The King of Chu was actually Jiang Xiaoyue?
Zhao Kun was full of disbelief. He relied on his relationship with Jiang Yueyue to ask, "Master, you, you are the prince?"
Jiang 깇月 jumped out of the car, walked over and knocked on 놛's head, "How is it? Is your master awesome?"
Zhao Kun was surprised and delighted, and asked repeatedly, "Master, how did you become a prince? This is a prince who is only a head shorter than the emperor! When the prime minister sees you, does he have to kneel?"
Jiang 깇月 was amused by 놛 and answered 놛 seriously.
"How I became a prince is a long story. I will tell you next time. But the Prime Minister should not have to kneel anymore. He was overthrown before he left the capital. From now on, he will not have to kneel when meeting anyone. At most, he will kneel to the King of Hell."
Zhao Kun simply wanted to kneel down to her. His master was truly the most capable person in the world. She had gone to the capital and came back to marry the prince. From now on, she would be able to rule the entire court.
"Okay, don't talk here if you have anything to say. Come home tomorrow and I'll tell you slowly."
Zhao Kun looked at the many common people and fellow officials around him, nodded, and quickly withdrew.
Upon seeing this, the county magistrate hurriedly welcomed the procession into the city, but the prepared accommodation was no longer needed, and the procession could be directly welcomed to Jiang's house.
The ceremonial procession was welcomed into the city, with countless people watching along the way. Everyone wanted to see what a woman who could be crowned a prince looked like.
When they arrived at Jiang's house, the door was already open. Mrs. Cao led the three sisters to the door waiting for Jiang Yueyue to come back.
Originally, when Mrs. Cao heard the news, she was also extremely surprised. She really couldn't believe it. Our boss was actually crowned king?
It was not until Mrs. Cao saw Jiang 깇yue really get off the carriage and the guards beside her called her "Your Highness the King of Chu" that she felt that all this seemed to be true.
As for the three sisters, they didn't really care about whether they were princes or not. They were worried sick because their mother had been away for a long time.
"Mom! You're finally back!"
The three sisters ran forward, the oldest pulled her left arm, the second pulled her right arm, and the third hugged her waist, holding Jiang Xiaoyue tightly.
Jiang 깇月 touched the three sisters' heads. She had indeed been out for too long this time. Moreover, she had not said what she was going to do when she went out, nor when she would be back. This had indeed caused the children to worry.
The three sisters were about to enter with Jiang Xiaoyue when a shrill voice suddenly sounded behind them.
"Gi Yue! Please save your niece! You are so powerful now, you are a big shot, please have mercy and save your poor niece!"
Jiang Xiaoyue turned around and saw that the person coming was her ex-sister-in-law, Ma Guichun.
Last time at the charity event, she went crazy on the field and was taken away by the bailiffs. This time, she actually dared to rush here.
"Gi Yue! Please have mercy! Your niece is suffering in such a filthy place! You are also a mother! Please save her!"
The guard bowed to Jiang 깇月 and said, "Your Highness, do you want to deal with this crazy woman?"
Jiang 깇月 waved her hand, "Do whatever you want with him. Drag him away and don't dirty my ears."
The guards quickly signaled to their men, and someone immediately stepped forward and dragged Ma Guichun away.
Ma Guichun didn't know where he got the strength and courage from. Facing the armored and armed guards, he desperately struggled and begged, "Yueyue! Please! Save Xiang'er! Xiang'er is still so young! She is innocent!"
The youngest, Jiang Yuer, tightly grasped Jiang 깇月's sleeve and looked up and asked, "Mom, what happened to Sister Xiang'er?"
Jiang 깇月 touched her head and told them, "The Liang family owed a debt, and Liang Xiang'er was sold to pay off the debt."
