Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 107 As expected
Lanxin Court.

Concubine Xing Jiang woke up in the middle of the night with a layer of cold sweat oozing from her head.

"Princess, are you awake? Would you like some tea?"

Seeing that the princess was awake, the maid Zhilan brought over tea.

Princess Jiang does not sleep well, wakes up easily in the middle of the night, and has the habit of drinking tea.

Lighting the lamp, seeing that the princess was sweating, Zhilan hurriedly brought a silk handkerchief to help wipe it off.

"What time is it?"

"It's time to be ugly, Wangfei! There is still some time before dawn, you can sleep a little longer."

Zhilan persuaded.

"Where's the prince?"

"Did you forget that the son is in the hot spring courtyard? Daoist Tao said that these two days are a good time to open the furnace. The son went to see it, and the princess can go to see it tomorrow, so that the prince is still in Xuanmiaoguan for a few days. .”

"It's fine if he doesn't come back. If he comes back, he's going to the Wang family's courtyard, pointing fingers at me and Shizi, and he doesn't like anything!"

Jiang muttered in dissatisfaction.

"Princess, don't be angry. You are a concubine, and she is just a side concubine. Even if the prince favors her, it will not change your position as concubine, and you have a son!"

"If it wasn't for my son, what hope would I have in this Prince Xing's Mansion? I burned incense and asked these people to save my son's life, but the prince is not sympathetic at all. Could it be that he wants to learn from the Prince Xiang's Mansion!"

"Princess, don't say that..."

Bang bang bang!
"Has the princess ever woken up?"

There was the sound of a woman knocking on the door outside.

"Princess, let me go and see, why are you knocking on the door in the middle of the night?"

Zhilan got up and went out.

After a while, Zhilan walked in with a middle-aged woman.

"Princess, Yuan Changshi is here and wants to talk to you about something!"

"What's the matter with him in the middle of the night? Not tomorrow? Just say I fell asleep."

Jiang was very surprised.

"My concubine might as well let him come over. Yuan Changshi should come here at this time because of something urgent, not the prince's side..."

Zhilan said.

"Let him come over!"

Jiang paused for a moment, her expression a bit cold.

It's good that Zhu Youtang has something to do, then her son can...

Suddenly having this idea in her heart, Jiang Shi was still a little scared and didn't dare to think about it.

Even though she is the hostess of the Prince Xing's mansion, Yuan Zonggao and the others are the dogs around Zhu Youzhao, they are just being polite to themselves and defending Zhu Youzhao everywhere.

"What do you mean by coming here in the middle of the night?"

Jiang has always disliked Yuan Zonggao. Although this person looked respectful to him, his eyes were full of politeness and alienation towards him, and he never regarded himself as the hostess of this family at all.

"Princess, is the prince in the hot spring courtyard?"

"So what? The prince is back?"

Jiang said disapprovingly.

"Princess, I know that during the Lantern Festival last night, some people robbed unmarried girls from good families at the Jili Bridge..."

"What does this have to do with us?"

"Someone saw that those people robbed people and went to the hot spring courtyard, and found women's clothes and shoes at the back door of the palace."

Yuan Zonggao said neither humble nor overbearing.

"No...impossible...impossible!"

Jiang called.

"Maybe some people want to slander the palace, how bold!"

Jiang's mouth is stubborn, but his expression is a little betraying himself.

"Princess, this is not a trivial matter. The son is young, so he definitely would not think of such a thing. Someone must have instigated him to do such a thing!"

"Bold Yuan Zonggao, dare to question me! How can I do whatever others say about my majestic Xingwang Mansion? What do you guys want to do!"

Jiang said forcefully.

With Yuan Zonggao like this, King Xing definitely didn't come back. As long as she insisted that she didn't, she wouldn't believe that those people dared to search King Xing's mansion.
"Princess, I heard that not only seven girls were robbed in this riot, but two girls of state officials were also trampled and injured because of this riot. The mouth of the people is more important than that of Fangchuan. It must be spread, and if the matter has become like this, Lu Lianxian will definitely give an explanation to the people, he is a military officer, and the princess is also from a military officer's family, so he must know the military officer's personality!"

"If you let him take the blame, you will definitely be willing to cut yourself into pieces. Anyone dares to pull him off! If the prince knows..."

"How do you want to find this concubine?"

"I ask the concubine to send a letter to the son to open the door and let those girls go. Enough is enough before the matter can be restored!"

"You... Daoist Tao and the others must have made this decision because of the urgent need for alchemy. Yuan Changshi can wait for a few days, and they will definitely not hurt the lives of those women. It would be better to send them back when the time comes! Those pills are precious. The concubine is not for my own use, not for the son, but also for the prince!"

Jiang Shi suddenly softened.

"My lord, my lord will definitely not take those pills. If you are sincere for your lord's sake, then follow your advice. Your lord's illness can't be stimulated. Previously, your lord was just... Waiting for your lord to come back, there's no room for change! "

...

Qin Shao stayed up all night. He thought that the county government would come to find him. After all, they were people who had seen bandits, even though they were masked.

It's just that one day passed, and Qin Shao, as a witness who had seen the thief, was not called to the county government office for questioning.

There were many patrolling yamen servants on the street, and the atmosphere was very tense for a while.

I heard that the Zhizhou direction also came to Jingshan to inspect.

Qin Shao originally thought that this matter would have a result, but after two days it ended without a problem.

He went out to inquire, but he heard that the family that lost their daughter had found their daughter, and hurriedly took their child back.

As for where it was lost and where it was found, it is vague.

After a few more days, there were no more people talking about it on the street.

It is said that if you want to talk about those things in the street, the yamen servants will arrest people if they see it.

For a while, Jingshan Street was very solemn, and it was no longer the bustling scene of the past.

After living two lifetimes, even though Qin Shao is young, he is not the kind of young man who doesn't understand the world, and the ending of this matter is actually within his expectations.

With the status of King Xing, even if the family members did such a thing, the local officials could only turn a blind eye.

What's more, the reason why Zhizhou Xiangfang was able to be re-elected in Anlu was recommended by King Xing.

Not to mention that Lu Lianxian only came to Jingshan for less than a year, so what if he was re-elected for more than ten years?
How dare a minor magistrate of Zhima county dare to challenge Xingwang's mansion?

What's more, although he seems to be an upright person, he is not a rigid and dull person, and he is even slightly slippery.

Those girls can go home, and the local officials can do this, which is already considered the best of benevolence.

In less than half a month, everything seemed to disappear.

It was as if the Geely Bridge Rebellion had never happened.

In the streets where there were only men in the past, women gradually appeared.

Han Jinrong also started to go shopping for groceries, but she always wore a hat when she went out, making herself very inconspicuous.

Qin Shao continued to learn from the old man Zhu, and the old man Zhu also heard about it.

He didn't say much, just shook his head and sighed.

Wang Yin's shoulder injury was not serious. In fact, he had almost healed in more than a week, and now he was still at home recuperating.

"My lord, there is nothing to do at home, and there is not much work in the field now. I heard that there are not enough people to move goods in the warehouse. I want to do it."

Wang Yin came to ask for instructions.

He has stayed at home for a long time, Qin Shao is studying, the third son can also buy vegetables, and help Miss Han to cook. He is clumsy in this regard, and he always feels that it is not a problem to eat idle food.

"What are you in a hurry for? What kind of work do you do! There is something important, and I need you to make a trip!"

Qin Shao said.

"Grandpa, what's the matter?"
