Jiang Shan didn't quite understand the Emperor and Crown Prince's intentions.
I just thought, wow, this carriage is quite spacious and comfortable!
Crucially, it's also shockproof!
The family of three almost started playing tag inside the carriage!
Jiang Shan's trip was quite grand, with Fu Qichen, the head of the Imperial Guards, serving as his bodyguard with the emperor's permission.
There were princes, county princesses, high-ranking officials of the third rank, and imperial guards accompanying them. Wherever they went, they were received by local officials.
Jiang Shan didn't want to cause trouble, and no matter how low-key he tried to be, he couldn't refuse the warm hospitality of the local officials.
Fortunately, we went through the proper channels, so there's no need to worry about anything.
However, some officials who wanted to take unconventional approaches inevitably set their sights on Fu Qiyuan.
The night before they arrived at Guyang County, after having dinner at the post station, Jiang Shan and Jiang Huai went to bed early.
I drank too much water from the Jianghuai region and soon woke up needing to urinate.
He glanced at his mother, then quietly got out of bed and opened the door.
"Second Uncle, Second Uncle!" Jiang Huai called out softly, and Fu Qichen rushed over upon hearing the call.
"Second Uncle, I need to pee."
As Jiang Huai spoke, he squeezed his legs together.
Fu Qichen smiled and led Jiang Huai to the backyard.
There was a bathroom inside, but Jiang Huai was afraid of waking Jiang Shan, so he resolutely refused to urinate there.
When the uncle and nephew passed by Fu Qiyuan's room, Jiang Huai stopped.
There were people talking inside the house.
It was still a woman's voice.
Jiang Huai listened for a while by the door and then gestured to Fu Qichen.
Fu Qichen raised an eyebrow and gestured to Jiang Huai for confirmation.
Jiang Huai nodded affirmatively.
Fu Qichen ground his back teeth, took a deep breath, raised his foot, and kicked the door.
With a loud crash, the door fell down.
Inside the room, Fu Qiyuan was half-lying on the table in a strange posture, while a young woman dressed in revealing clothing hugged him tightly from behind.
Jiang Huai put his hands on his hips and pointed at the woman with a smug look on his face, saying in a crisp voice, "Second Uncle, this man is trying to hurt my father, arrest him!"
Fu Qichen lifted the woman by the slender neck like a chick and threw her onto the door panel.
Fu Qiyuan said with difficulty, "Second brother, please ask me to find a doctor. I think I twisted my ankle!"
The woman, lying on the door panel, cried out in a sobbing voice, "It wasn't me! I didn't hurt you, sir! You twisted your ankle yourself!"
Jiang Huai's face darkened, and she said angrily, "It was you who hurt my father! Apart from my mother, all of you women are tigers! If you hadn't been chasing after my father, would he have twisted his ankle out of fear? Guards, take her away and lock her up. We'll deal with her after my mother wakes up!"
The Imperial Guards outside entered silently, knocked the woman unconscious on the door, and disappeared into the night.
The doctor arrived quickly, determined that Fu Qiyuan had only sprained his Achilles tendon and that it wasn't a serious problem. He left a prescription and left without alerting anyone else.
Fu Shu went to prepare the medicine, and Fu Qichen also went out, leaving the father and son staring at each other.
Facing Jiang Huai's obsidian-like eyes, Fu Qiyuan said helplessly, "Aren't you going to relieve yourself? How long are you going to hold it in?"
Jiang Huai walked to the washroom separated by a screen, and while relieving himself, he muttered, "Why didn't you call me when you were being bullied? I told you women are tigers, but you didn't even try to avoid them. How are you going to explain this to Mother tomorrow? You're such a worry!"
Fu Qichen, who was standing guard outside the door, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Fu Qiyuan opened his mouth, then remained silent for a moment before saying, "Father was wrong, and Father apologizes to you. Do you have any good ideas?"
Jiang Huai leaned over and looked, but didn't say anything.
After a while, he came over, wiping his hands, and said with a frown, "How about we say I got up to pee in the middle of the night and you weren't paying attention to where we were going..."
"Alright, that's settled then! Huai'er is so thoughtful!"
Jiang Huai sighed, "There can't be a next time, my mother is very smart! You should take a shower and change your clothes, you smell!"
Fu Qiyuan raised his arm, smelled it, and nodded silently.
When Jiang Shan woke up, he didn't see Jiang Huai. He asked Liang Chen and learned that Jiang Huai had gotten up to urinate last night and then simply stayed in Fu Qiyuan's room to sleep.
Unfortunately, the father twisted his ankle.
Tsk, I feel sorry for Fu Qiyuan for a second!
Therefore, until he left the post station, Jiang Shan still didn't know what had happened the night before.
As for that woman, Jiang Huai secretly asked Fu Qichen about her, and she was thrown onto the postmaster's bed that very night.
Yes, if you fall down, you should find your footing again!
As usual, the carriage was intercepted halfway by the magistrate of Guyang County.
Upon arriving at his fiefdom, Jiang Shan had no choice but to dismount from the carriage and express his feelings.
But when she saw the large crowd of onlookers, she became less calm.
Before she could even catch her breath, the onlookers clasped their hands together and bowed deeply to her.
"Greetings, Princess Guyang!"
Jiang Shan turned to look at the county magistrate, who waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's not me, it's the common people who heard that the county magistrate was coming back to visit his hometown, so they came to welcome him on their own initiative!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shan let out a breath, calmed himself down, and said with a smile, "Fellow villagers, there's no need for such formalities. We just came back to visit, it's nothing serious. Everyone, please go back and get back to your work!"
What are you talking about? They're on a mission this time, and they're not going anywhere until they achieve their goal!
No one moved.
Jiang Shan then said, "Go back, everyone! Don't catch a cold in this freezing weather, go back quickly!"
Still no one moved.
Jiang Shan was in an awkward position and looked to Fu Qiyuan for help.
