His Royal Highness, he is plotting against me

Chapter 233 The Holy Drive Arrives

Hazy Palace.

Sure enough, as they expected, the governor of Jiangning County and others guarded the palace and did not dare to move at all.

Well, even if there are no His Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, etc., they still have to make good arrangements for this bunch of officials and concubines.

The weather was too hot, the sheriff was wiping his sweat, and in a yard in front of the palace, he heard his subordinates come to report that all the people had been settled.

"The lunch has also been arranged to speed up the preparations, but I don't know when His Majesty and His Royal Highness will arrive. Our reception banquet..."

Hearing the subordinate's words, the county guard wailed in his heart, just three words:

Difficult!
He has already sent someone to the city to secretly inquire about the whereabouts of His Majesty and his party.

There are only so few people in Jiangning City, His Majesty's family must be different from ordinary people, face to face, their people can be found by just looking for them.

Although this act is a bit suspected of spying on Sheng Jia, but he really can't do anything about it.

His Majesty didn't follow the routine at all. He didn't know when His Majesty disembarked from the boat before. He couldn't have killed everyone in the palace now, so he didn't notice it, right?

His Majesty the Emperor: That cannot be done.

He's already on his way.

In this wave, the people of the Sheriff's Mansion were also very strong. In the hot weather, they rushed to the palace in front of the carriage of His Majesty and his party.

"grown ups!"

"My lord! Come... come!"

The visitor's complexion was flushed, his breathing was short of breath, and after just a few words, it seemed as if he was about to burp.

The sheriff looked anxious, "Quick! Give him water!"

A servant hurried over with a kettle and a bowl, and poured him a large bowl.

The man gulped it down like he hadn't drank water in several lifetimes.

The governor of the county quickly asked: "Is Sheng Jia going to the palace?"

The man nodded, and finally said in a clear way: "My lord, when the subordinates saw the carriage leaving the city, they rushed over all the way. The carriage traveled from the city to the palace for at least an hour, and the speed of the horse was reduced by half, so the holy driver still It'll be here in about half an hour."

The county sheriff let out an "Aiyo", and he didn't know whether it was joy or sadness on his face.

"Quick! Get ready everywhere!"

"Achun, hurry up and notify those dogs, they are ready to pick them up!"

The magistrate was cursing, obviously he was very dissatisfied with those who did not come to the palace with the large army because His Majesty disembarked first.

Well, the holy car will be here in half an hour, and no one will be seen by that time, so they are the ones to see!

Now it depends on whether they are smart or not.

He knew to send someone to keep an eye on Sheng Jia, but he didn't believe those old tricksters didn't keep an eye on him!
**
Obviously, these "old slickers" will not disappoint the sheriff.

But a quarter of an hour's work.

There was a sound of horseshoes outside the palace.

The sheriff went out to have a look and was amused.

Hey!
The old tricksters are here.

"Master Sheriff."

"Master Jiang."

The people who came down immediately were panting like cows, and greeted Mr. Jiang Xianjiang, the county guard.

Jiang Xian smiled and nodded one by one.

"Yo, Juncheng Zhao is here?"

"Master Lin, you have worked hard."

"Look at you guys, it's such a big sun, why don't you just come here with me earlier."

The sheriff was standing in the shade of the corridor, and the servant beside him was fanning him, squinting at the people walking towards him with a satisfied face.

Jiang Xian, the prefect of Jiangning County, is an outsider, who was parachuted into Jiangning County seven years ago.

The county guard before him was sent away by the Prince's sword.

But apart from himself, there is also the prince who is guarding Jiangning County. The rest of the team, including his deputy Jun Cheng, the officials in charge of county and county officials, and the treasurer in charge of finance are all the same as before. team.

When Jiang Xian first arrived in Jiangning, he was almost dismissed by these people.

That is, in the past few years, His Majesty wanted to dig a canal, and he joined the garrison battalion to regain some power.

Among the visitors, Mr. Zhao, the county magistrate who has worked with the county magistrate for a longer time, clasped his fists:
"It's still the magistrate who is far-sighted, and I can't wait to flatter my horse."

Lord Lin who came from behind also said: "I thought that we should make two-handed preparations. You are waiting in the palace. If we can meet His Majesty in the city, it would be a good thing to welcome the holy driver. I didn't expect that I will be incompetent. Failed to find the Holy Driver."

Jiang Xian's narrowed eyes paused, "Hehehe, the adults are being modest."

Failed to find the Holy Driver?

What about fooling the ghost?

The Lin family is like a local snake in Jiangning. If there are too many mice in the city, they can find them out within a night, let alone the mighty royal family.

Otherwise, can they rush over now?

Don't think he doesn't know, these old foxes just watched His Majesty get off the boat quietly, and felt scared, so they hurried home and checked again when they didn't need to greet him.

I was afraid that someone would steal my home without realizing it.

This finally waited until Shengjia left the city, so he rushed here in a hurry.

Ugh!
It's been really hard, my lords.

Regardless of what they thought in their hearts, the few people who came here still complimented the Sheriff on the surface.

Jiang Xian had a loving face: "My lords have worked hard all the way, you might as well go inside and have a rest first, let's wait for the holy driver together."

Look at this man who is sweating profusely, his clothes are also wet with sweat.

How rude to welcome you like this?

It was simply out of place with his elaborate welcome ceremony.

So let's be a little self-aware, hurry up and tidy up yourself, don't stand here and burn his eyes.

Zhao Juncheng and the others also knew that something was wrong with them. Fortunately, they were well prepared, and the servants who followed all carried a big burden on them.

They clasped their fists together, thanked the sheriff, and went inside to find a room to change their clothes.

Jiang Xian went back to sit on the porch, enjoying the breeze fanned by the servant.

A little bit warm.

But still within the tolerable range.

Calm and cool naturally.

Mr. Jiang closed his small eyes, and after a while, he snored slightly.

The action of the little tussle fan became lighter.

suddenly,

Master Jiang, who had just fallen asleep, woke up with a jolt.

"I'm asleep?"

The boy replied, "Master, he narrowed his eyes for a moment."

"Where is the saint?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of horseshoes at the gate.

"The royal driver is approaching, and the idlers are waiting to avoid it."

It was the guards next to His Majesty who came to clear the field.

The Xinggong was taken over by the Imperial Forest Army early in the morning, cleaned up and waiting for the arrival of Shengjia.

There are no idlers and others, and there are only Mr. Jiang Xianjiang and Zhao Juncheng who are nesting in these small houses at the gate of the palace.

Jiang Xian quickly stood up and asked someone to move the chairs under the porch back.

Zhao Juncheng and others who were hiding inside also came out one after another.

There is no way to hide from this sun.

A group of people obediently walked out of the small house at the entrance of the palace, walked under the sun, and waited for the holy driver.
