Chapter 7
After staying at the county magistrate's residence for two days, there was still no news from the palace.
The county magistrate went to the government office early for business, and Chu Lingyao didn't have the chance to ask, so she simply went to the government office directly.
When I arrived in front of the government office, I saw a dazzling person, Mrs. Zhou.
The bump on Mrs. Zhou's forehead has not dissipated, and there is a large bruise on her forehead. Two maids are following behind her.
Relying on the fact that she was from a wealthy family in this area, she pointed at the officials and yelled, "Have you found that bitch? Is all the food the government feeds you free?"
It is really difficult for officials to say that the county magistrate is busy with the princess' affairs, so he has no time to care about such trivial matters.
"Mrs. Zhou, don't be anxious, everything must be done step by step."
Mrs. Zhou pointed to her forehead with a ferocious expression, "Look! What bitch gave me this! My son is bedridden now. She killed me a thousand times to make me the last grandson of the Zhou family! This and What’s the difference between killing someone!”
The official had a sad face, and when his eyes moved, he was suddenly attracted away by Chu Ling who was behind him.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Zhou followed the officer's gaze and immediately gritted her teeth in hatred!
"Okay! You bitch, you dare to show up here openly, see if I don't beat you to death!"
With that said, Mrs. Zhou raised her palm and stepped forward, ready to tear Chu Lingyao into pieces.
But as soon as the palm fell, the officials rushed forward to stop it.
Who would have thought that the woman Mrs. Zhou mentioned as killing people and setting fires was an ancestor!This is going to take Mrs. Zhou's beating, and the county magistrate won't peel off his skin!
Mrs. Zhou angrily slapped the official in the face, "What are you stopping me for? It's this bitch! She harmed my son and set my Zhou mansion on fire!"
Chu Lingyao looked indifferent, with a hint of ridicule on her lips, "I don't know what Mrs. Zhou said, but I do remember that Mrs. Zhou wanted to steal the jade bracelet my mother left me. Could it be that the theft failed and she was slandered instead? "
"Bah!" Mrs. Zhou spat hard after hearing this, her teeth buckled as she said, "I, the Zhou Mansion, provide food and accommodation for your mother and daughter, that's what you should give! If you dare to do something but don't admit it, you are afraid of being jailed. You! I am so compassionate that I can give you a second way! Go to the brothel and do for your mother what she failed to do!"
Chu Lingyao's brows furrowed slightly, his eyes turned sinister, and the fists in his sleeves clenched quietly.
Even if the original owner's body and bones were stronger, Mrs. Zhou and her son would not be able to live in this world now.
At that time, the county magistrate heard the commotion outside, came out to take a look, and smiled when he saw Chu Lingyao.
"Why are Miss Chu here? Are you here to ask about news from the palace? Why don't you go in?"
Chu Ling regained her composure and loosened her fists. She raised her head and said, "It's not like someone is blocking the way."
Mrs. Zhou was startled, and something was wrong in her heart. Why was the county magistrate so polite to Chu Lingyao?The sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded, and a family of officials came from the other end of the road.
Two luxurious carriages drove one after another, with guards on both sides riding horses with swords on their waists to escort them.
The passers-by around them all hurriedly gathered around to watch the fun at Mrs. Zhou's roar, but when the two carriages stopped in front of the official residence, they dispersed like bees.
The carriage in front slowly came down from the carriage, and a man dressed in eunuch uniform, holding a fly whisk in hand, looked kind and approachable.
When the county magistrate saw him, he almost burst out laughing. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Eunuch Li is here in person. I am waiting to welcome him from afar."
Eunuch Li's sharp eyes fixed on Chu Lingyao at one glance, bowed to her and said, "I am here to take the princess back to the palace on the order of the emperor."
As soon as she said these words, Mrs. Zhou's face froze, her legs and feet were so frightened that she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately the maid behind her held her up.
Princess?This bitch is a princess!
No one dared to say anything against Mrs. Zhou for acting wildly in front of the common people, but now this has touched the palace. Just now, her attempt to slap Chu Lingyao was going to make her head fall off!
She understood the seriousness, and immediately put down her face and knelt down, "A commoner's woman has blind eyes, and is acting arrogantly in front of Her Highness the Princess. A commoner's woman knows she is acting as a shrew, and I hope that Your Highness the Princess will not forget the past grievances!"
It's really faster to fall out than to flip through a book.
In this world, who doesn’t look up to power?
Chu Lingyao smiled. Standing at a high place, he could crush ants to death without using his hands.
"Mrs. Zhou didn't look like this when she took my jade bracelet before."
Mrs. Zhou swallowed hard and did not dare to raise her head. Her cloudy eyes could not stop trembling.
"No matter how much you say, a commoner woman will give the princess a sheltered place to live. I hope the princess won't blame her for this." Mrs. Zhou raised her hand and gave herself a few slaps, each one loud and loud, "A commoner woman is greedy for money, you deserve to die! Please!" Princess, please be more liberal!"
Chu Lingyao ignored Mrs. Zhou and turned to Eunuch Li and said, "I would like to ask my father-in-law to follow me to the county magistrate's house. Where is my adoptive mother? I want to say goodbye to her. Thank you, father-in-law."
"Princess, you don't have to be polite. These are what slaves should do."
Eunuch Li helped Chu Lingyao get into the larger carriage at the back. The moment the curtain was lowered, Eunuch Li's face changed. He glanced at Mrs. Zhou coldly, and then raised his hand to signal to the guards.
The princess didn't respond to her plea for mercy, didn't she just want her to die?
