Civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty, begging me to ascend the throne
Chapter 40 Silk Flower
Inside the box were three peonies woven with gold silk, the workmanship was exquisite, and it looked majestic.
Mr. Weng smiled implicitly, and then said modestly: "The lower official knows that the princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, and such ordinary things should not be seen. The lower official also specially prepared horse food and grass, and there is a big table for the guards."
With that said, Weng Cheng looked at Li Yancheng opposite.
General Li was still taciturn, and he didn't know if those words just caught his ears.
Weng Cheng touched his nose involuntarily, waving his hand as he was making fun of himself.
The maid closed the box, put it on the table next to Jiang Sile with small steps, and then stepped back slowly.
Jiang Sile also saved face for Mr. Weng, after all, he didn't reach out to hit the smiling face.
After everyone left, Jiang Sile glanced at the wooden box, looked at Lord Weng and said coldly: "Bringing a princess is all these expenses? Lord Weng really makes a lot of money..."
Weng Cheng didn't know why, so he wiped the sweat from his forehead, wondering: what bribe?If I had known it earlier, I should not have done Master Chi's errand. I am a small county magistrate. This nobleman bullied me when he said he would bully me, and he didn't dare to refute.
Jiang Sile looked at Weng Cheng's puzzled look, then glanced at You Tianwai's Li Yancheng, and said, "Oh, didn't Mr. Weng come to apologize to the princess for the refugees on the post road?"
"Think you know? So it was just pushed out to dispel the anger of the princess?"
Weng Cheng was startled when he heard this, cold sweat was already seeping from the back of his clothes, and his face was also panicked.
"Liu... a refugee?" Weng Cheng stared at Jiang Sile with wide-eyed eyes, and only then did he realize that something was wrong.
Seeing this, Luzhi interrupted sharply: "No, those people surrounded His Highness's carriage, and His Highness was shocked by it!"
Li Yancheng, who was watching coldly, couldn't help but twitched his mouth, surprised?The way His Highness was alive and kicking yesterday, preventing the refugees from recording rumors, and fearing that the big things will not be messed up, does not seem to be frightened.
If it should be said that the ones who were shocked should be the palace people who were suddenly pulled out.
But Li Yancheng only dared to complain silently in his heart, his expression was still icy.
"This! This..." Weng Cheng knew that he couldn't evade it, and his face was wrinkled with worry.
After all, it was the princess who happened in his own jurisdiction, and he had to bear the responsibility even if he didn't.
This made Weng Cheng curse Chi Zhizhou in his heart, but he pleaded guilty on the face.
"This matter is the crime of the lower officials. The management of the lower officials is not strict, so that someone disturbed the princess's carriage. ... I will make a plea to the court later."
Weng Cheng knelt down, spoke earnestly, and was full of regret.
However, this regret was not regret for not governing the post-county town, but regret for not knowing about this earlier, and should not have accepted the princess for him at the request of his immediate superior Chi Zhizhou.
Jiang Sile guessed his little thoughts clearly.
So, she immediately reprimanded: "Go call the magistrate surnamed Chi, your crimes are also his faults. My Highness's discomfort along the way is all because of your lax governance!"
As soon as Weng Cheng heard this, he knew that the princess was spreading all the grievances of the marriage on them.
But when he thought that the person surnamed Chi was his immediate boss, he was hesitating, whether to go or not to go.
If he went, he would drag Shangguan into the water, and he would not be able to survive in the officialdom after that.
But...won't you go?Not to mention that the aunt's anger will not go away, but there is still a general with a guard sitting in this hall.
After hesitating again and again, Weng Cheng still complied and left the door in despair.
"Today is really bad luck..." Weng Cheng hurriedly called a sedan chair at the door and went to Chifu.
He expected that Mr. Chi would not be in the government office today, if he went to block him at home, not only would there be some distance left, but every block would be accurate.
The sedan chair dangled and drove towards the most prosperous place in Jiangzhou.
After the sedan chair stopped at the entrance of the pool house with a mahogany and golden plaque, Weng Cheng first tidied up his appearance, and then he knocked on the door frantically in a panic.
After a long while, a servant pushed open the bolt of the door, and shouted in confusion, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Master Chi from your family!"
Weng Cheng pushed open the door and roared, the boy saw his face before he fully woke up.
He only thought that something serious had happened, and said in a panic, "Master...Master is in the main room, the county magistrate, please."
As he spoke, he led Weng Cheng along the trail and into the main courtyard.
This road is full of pavilions, the rockery is as high as two people, and the pond is full of lucky koi fish.
Even if Weng Cheng had been here before, he couldn't help praising him in his heart.
Before the two of them reached the main hall, Chi Ren and Mr. Chi walked quickly to the door to greet them.
Seeing Weng Cheng flustered and looking like the sky was about to fall, he quickly asked: "What's the matter, Brother Wen Cheng, but what happened?"
Weng Cheng's Biaozi is Wencheng, and the two of them have had a friendly relationship over the years, and it is normal to call each other Biaozi.
"Lord Chi, something serious has happened!" Weng Cheng held Chi Renyu's hand tightly and yelled that it was not good.
"The princess, the princess you asked me to go to the government office to receive was surprised by the refugees on the road yesterday. This time, she came to ask us for a crime."
Seeing Weng Cheng's panicked face, Chi Renyu not only didn't panic, but also laughed.
"Brother Wen Cheng, aren't you just a princess, look at how you scare me." Chi Renyu patted Weng Cheng on the back, giving him confidence.
"So what if it's the princess? Let's see if I send her away in a while."
Weng Cheng was overjoyed, and he firmly held Chi Renyu's hand and confirmed: "You really have a way to get rid of that princess? She is accompanied by guards, and my brother will be afraid when he sees it..."
"Don't worry, I'm here, brother, wait for me to change into an official uniform, and then go with you."
Mr. Weng smiled implicitly, and then said modestly: "The lower official knows that the princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, and such ordinary things should not be seen. The lower official also specially prepared horse food and grass, and there is a big table for the guards."
With that said, Weng Cheng looked at Li Yancheng opposite.
