Chapter 139 Concubine
Chapter 139 Concubine
Governor Liu acted decisively and dealt with Wang Pingzhi and his gang, including Huang Ziqiu, and exiled them to Jinzhou, a desert place thousands of miles away.
He fainted upon hearing the news.
Everyone else who should have been released was released, and their families happily took them home.
Liu Yicha and Liang Qingshan took Xia Qingqing to the backyard and familiarized themselves with the surroundings.
"Sir Liu, it's just that there is no suitable official uniform."
Liang Qingshan reminded him, and Liu Yicha sighed and said, "Let me ask for your instructions."
Xia Qingqing waved her hand and said, "It's just a temporary replacement. Don't make it so complicated."
The group walked around again. Liu Yicha paced back and forth in the courtyard and asked Liang Qingshan, "Sir Liang, has His Majesty arrived in Liangzhou City?"
Seeing Liang Qingshan hesitate to speak, he was shocked and asked, "Could it be that you have come to Qingshi Town?"
Seeing him finally nod, Liu Yicha suddenly realized: "No wonder, I was wondering why this imperial edict came so timely. Where did our Majesty go?"
Liang Qingshan shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Liu Yicha said regretfully, "Ah, our Majesty is truly mischievous. Since that's the case, County Magistrate Xia has taken over the town's affairs, and it's time for me to leave."
"Master Liu, now that you're here, don't rush to leave," Liang Qingshan looked at Liu Yicha. "There are many interesting places in Qingshi Town. I'll show you around, so you can get to know us better. When you get to the capital, you can introduce us to your colleagues in the court."
Liu Yicha smiled and said, "Mr. Liang is too modest. Your place is very famous. It was once the poorest town, but now it has become the richest. Which official doesn't know this?"
He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Since this place has attracted His Majesty, it must have something special. I have also finished my case, so I would like to trouble you to accompany me to observe the customs of the people here."
"That would be great."
A smile appeared in Liang Qingshan's eyes. Now that he was here, it wouldn't be so easy to leave.
At night, Xia Qingqing, Xia Wude and others finally returned home, and the village finally became quiet.
Smoke rose from the courtyard. When I arrived at the door, I saw two men staring into the kitchen.
"who are you?"
The two men turned around immediately. One of them bent over and was about to speak when he saw Ding coming out of the kitchen.
"These two came to play with us. Tiezhu came back and told me about the situation over there. I was preparing food, so I'll prepare some for them as well."
"I'm really sorry to bother you." The man in purple stepped forward and bowed, "I hope I'm not disturbing you."
Xia Qingqing waved her hand and said, "I see. Then let's go together."
"Oh, I'm so sleepy," Shen Yue yawned in the back, tears streaming down his face. He stepped forward and said, "Okay, old man, I'm sleepy too..."
As soon as he took a step forward, his confused eyes suddenly widened, and he said hurriedly: "This, this, this, Saint..."
"Oh, yes, this is Fourth Master Jiang," Chunshou stepped forward and said, "My name is Chunshou."
Shen Yue was about to say something but he swallowed it back. At this moment, Huo Gang shouted from inside the house, "Come and have dinner. Today we will celebrate for the county magistrate."
"Yeah."
Everyone agreed and went into the house. Shen Yue followed behind listlessly, his feet feeling as if they were filled with lead and he couldn't move.
The look in his eyes was filled with resentment.
How do you eat this meal? Standing or sitting?
The round table was full of family members. All the Huo family members were present except Huo Yihan. In addition, Mulan, Qingfeng, Shen Yue, and two guests were seated completely.
As pots of seafood were served, Fourth Master Jiang's stomach began to sing, prompting Huo Shuang'er beside him to tease him.
"Uncle, your stomach is singing."
Fourth Master Jiang smiled awkwardly, and Chunshou beside him quickly said, "Little girl, you can't..."
"Chun Shou." Fourth Master Jiang reminded him, and Chun Shou then calmed down a little. He quickly stood aside and started to pick up food for Fourth Master Jiang. This scene made Xia Qingqing take a few more glances.
"Sir, please don't stand. Sit down and eat." Huo Gang waved his hand to signal Chunshou to sit down.
And Fourth Master Jiang immediately said, "Yes, yes, sit down and eat."
The aroma of seafood filled the entire room. Everyone was having a great time eating and chatting.
The haze of this period has finally passed.
For several days in a row, Xia Qingqing has been handling official business in the yamen, and she really has a headache looking at so many things.
It would be great if Su Xi was here, her brain is not that of an ordinary person.
Thinking of this, Xia Qingqing's mood immediately became depressed. She didn't know where she was now, whether she had eaten enough, whether she was cold, and whether she had enough money to spend.
-
In Yanjing City, at the Ninth Prince's residence, snowflakes were floating all over the sky. A girl in a fiery red cloak stood at the door, looking down at the maids kneeling in a row in the snow.
"Did my brother really bring back a wild woman?"
The kneeling maids answered in unison: "Yes, Princess Qianqian."
"Then let's make a bet. How long can my brother stay with this wild woman this time?" Jiang Qianqian said with anticipation, "How about I bet three months and I'll bet you six months' salary?"
The corners of the girls' mouths twitched, and they immediately bowed and said, "I will obey the princess."
They really wanted to cry but had no tears. After this princess came, she earned more than their monthly salary for the next three years.
In their hearts, this little princess was a country person who calculated the monthly wages of their maids every day. They only had a few taels of silver every month, and she took it all away.
It’s really a lot of suffering.
"Come on, guess how many months?"
Jiang Qianqian urged them, and several maids hurriedly guessed a few numbers at random, and were then let go by the little princess.
"Let's go to Maple Forest Garden to see my brother. I haven't seen him for a long time."
Jiang Qianqian, accompanied by her maid, came to the Maple Forest Garden of the palace. As soon as she walked into the courtyard on the snow, she saw a row of women of various kinds standing in the yard.
"Your Highness, is this the new sister?" One of the women in green clothes twisted her waist and slowly walked to the man in black clothes who was standing with his hands behind his back, and leaned against him.
"Liuyun, who are they?" Su Xi frowned, and even a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth. Even if she was stupid, she would understand this situation.
"How dare you! You actually called His Highness by his name? Slap your face!"
As soon as Jiang Qianqian finished speaking, a maid came forward, but as soon as she raised her hand, Su Xi slapped her away.
Everyone exclaimed, but Su Xi just looked at Jiang Liuyun and asked again: "Who are they?"
Jiang Liuyun saw Su Xi's hurt eyes, turned his head away, and said, "Concubine."
