Chapter 389 Back to Beijing!
The final handling process of the case was simply a mess.
The police suddenly rushed into the crowd to arrest people. After they caught them, the prefect Zou Cailiang, who they usually regarded as an upright official, hastily closed the case.
Both the Ding girl and the bearded man were thrown into prison, awaiting their fate.
Hooligans who spread "false" news among the crowd will be given 20 strokes of the cane and executed on the spot.
Afterwards, a team of officials rushed out of the government office and forcibly dispersed the onlookers. Only Lu Yao and a few others who came to look for Jiang Yingcheng and his group were left in front of the empty government office.
Zou Cailiang had a look of astonishment on his face, and only after Lu Yao repeatedly assured him that he would not easily believe the one-sided words of the thugs did he reluctantly send the few people out the door.
However, to what extent he had let go of his already high spirits was unknown to outsiders.
…
The news that Emperor Mingze was coming in person spread quickly throughout Fengjin County, along with the news that the young man who often came to the snack shop in the city was the Eleventh Princess.
That night, the practice of closing the doors to customers at 11:00 p.m., which had been maintained for decades by shops large and small, suddenly became invalid, and Fengjin County completely became a city that never sleeps.
Jiang Yingcheng really liked the situation where all the dessert shops in the city would take out their specialties to treat her, but every time she went out she would be stared at by a large number of people. After enjoying the treatment of being a "female celebrity going out" for a day, she chose to stay in the house and refused any activities outside.
As news from the capital had been continuously reaching Fengjin County in the past two days, Jiang Yanchuan had been extremely busy for several days. Finally, on the morning of the second day when the young man stayed indoors, he ordered that except for the two ministers of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Justice, and nearly half of the secret guards who stayed in Fengjin County to handle subsequent matters, the rest of the people should return to the capital immediately.
There was snow and wind on the way here, and green trees provided shade when leaving.
…
It was just past noon when the carriage reached the city gate.
Crown Prince Jiang Tinghuai was personally greeted at the city gate by the civil and military officials who were left behind in the capital. Jiang Yingcheng had already known about their actions in advance due to 007's reminder. She had been looking forward to it all the way, and the moment the carriage stopped, she was the first to jump out of the carriage and ran towards her brother the crown prince.
"Brother Prince, brother Prince, guess what Cheng Cheng brought back to you."
The short legs suddenly stopped halfway through the process, hesitated for a moment, and even took a step back: [No, that's not right! ]
Jiang Tinghuai quickly glanced at Jiang Yanchuan and the others who were still far away, lowered his voice, and said with a smile: "Little Eleven, be good and come to Brother Crown Prince~"
He specially prepared the most "passionate" welcoming ceremony, just waiting for her to fall into his hands!
Left behind under the resentful gazes of the ministers in the capital, Jiang Yingcheng trembled visibly, and his head almost shook like a toss-up.
【Wuwuwu, Tongge, Tongge, what’s wrong with you, prince brother and uncles? 】
Why do they all look so scary? !
007, who always answered questions, was silent for a moment.
How can it be told to the young guys who have never entered the workplace? They watch their colleagues go out to eat, drink and have fun while they are left to work overtime. They feel very resentful.
Jiang Yingcheng didn't understand the situation, but he was very aware of the crisis and started running back on the spot!
"Father, Father——"
[Wow wow wow——The prince and the uncles are so scary——]
Jiang Yanchuan, who had just stepped off the carriage, said: "..."
The scenery in the suburbs is unique, with distant mountains covered with layers of dense forests. At a glance, it is all green, which is very pleasing to the eyes.
Scenes of living in seclusion in the mountains appeared in his mind, and he even wanted to take action immediately.
The court officials who had already stood still and waited for Emperor Mingze's order said: "..."
Don’t, don’t come over here!
They are scared too!!
…
It turns out that overwhelming resentment is enough to temporarily overcome the fear in one's heart.
The officials were kept in the capital for several months. Not only did they have to deal with their own affairs, but they also had to deal with the work of their colleagues who were traveling. The more they worked, the angrier they became. The angrier they became, the less efficient they became. The less efficient they became, the more affairs piled up...
Finally, a perfect closed loop was formed.
Before Jiang Yanchuan even stepped into the palace, court officials stuffed several memorials into his hands. By the time they entered the palace through Shengping Gate, he had more than a dozen memorials in his hands. He even saw a simple memorial in it.
Jiang Yanchuan let out a long sigh, knowing that he couldn't avoid today's fight, so he ordered everyone not to return to their homes, but to bring them all directly to Chongyun Palace, under the pretext of introducing them to a new colleague.
——On their way back, they returned to Quchun County as scheduled and met up with Gu Ruizhou who was waiting for them there.
The ministers who had accompanied Emperor Mingze on his tour met the unfriendly looks of their colleagues. They dared not say anything but just hung their heads and followed him listlessly.
Jiang Yingcheng is no exception.
She clung tightly to her handsome father, following him closely, like a warrior ready to die bravely: [Wuwuwu, father, he is like this only because he wants to take Chengcheng out to play! Chengcheng must protect the handsome father!!]
A group of court officials who could hear the young man's thoughts: "..."
It hasn't gotten to that point.
During the period after New Year's Day, the government affairs were indeed much less, and this was the case in the previous few years.
But maybe it was because of the sudden addition of the little guy as a plug-in, Emperor Mingze issued several decrees in succession, as if the wolf king who had been hungry for years finally found the flock of sheep, and his intention to make a big move was particularly obvious.
The more things you want to do, the more things you need to deal with.
They really had something important to report today, otherwise how would they dare to touch that person just out of resentment.
In Chongyun Palace, all the civil and military officials stood in their respective positions, and no one spoke for a while.
The ministers looked left and right, their eyebrows were furrowed to the point of flying onto other people's faces, but no one spoke up first to be the first to speak out.
Jiang Yanchuan rested his forehead on his hand, his elbows on the dragon chair, his eyes dim and unclear: "Did you say everything you wanted to say on the way?"
They came up one after another and kept reporting beside the car. He thought that someone was going to come to Da Rui's door any moment.
The court was dead silent. After a long while, someone finally stepped out and bowed.
It was the loyal and military general Gao Siyuan.
Everyone looked at him eagerly and kept cheering him on.
As expected of a military leader, he is extremely courageous! !
The next moment, the brave and courageous general stood up and spoke in a resounding voice: "Your Majesty, General Kan has something to report!"
General Kan Ruifeng: "..."
The ministers present: "..."
Is there anyone who would ask for permission like you?!
Gao Siyuan faced the various looks from his ministers and the death gaze from General Kan without any shame on his face. He even raised the corners of his lips slightly and gave them an encouraging look.
I've done the beginning for you! The rest of the way is up to you!!
At this point, Kan Ruifeng could only take a deep breath and slowly take a step to the side: "Your Majesty——"
[What’s going on——]
[Could it be that because Grandpa Kan was too diligent, he accelerated the preparations for the march, so the fact that someone mixed inferior products into the rations was exposed in advance?! ]
Civil and military officials: "..."
Civil and military officials: "!!!"
