MTL - The Crown Prince Chases His Wife-Chapter 116 court lady
The troubled restaurant next to the official road in the western suburbs of Shangjing.
Song Zhi and some of the dark guards were left to deal with the follow-up.
At this time, on the ground in the restaurant, there were still five men who had been beaten to death by the dark guards and were crying in pain.
Song Zhi ignored those people and only asked the dark guard to treat the wounds of the girls who were injured by those men, waiting for the arrival of the Taiyuan Hospital.
The injuries to these girls were not too serious, but they were beaten just now on the fatal parts of the head and abdomen.
Fortunately, they met the prince and princess today, otherwise these girls would probably lose half their lives if they didn't die.
Song Zhi looked at several men lying on the ground who were writhing in pain, and cursed.
"What a bunch of beasts!"
The Crown Princess was right, if it wasn't for Shangjing, she would have killed these scum with one stroke.
------
Not long after, Xie Zhao, the deputy commander of the Nanya Forbidden Army, who had been patrolling the paddocks in the western suburbs, arrived at the restaurant with 2,000 guards in a clean-up manner.
At the same time, Jingzhao Yin Gaojin also arrived here.
Gao Jin had a general understanding of the matter before he came, and when he arrived at the scene, he barely recognized the faces on the ground with bruised noses and bloodstained faces.
Gao Jin's complexion changed greatly, and he secretly cried out in his heart.
How are these people!
And the man in green, that's not...
The nephew of Mrs. Wang's wife in Zuo Xiangfu?
Gao Jin was in a cold sweat.
Song Zhi looked at Gao Jin's face and sneered in his heart,
"Lord Gao, I heard that this guy lying on the ground often walks through the motions in your Jingzhao Mansion. Master Gao should know him?"
When Gao Jin heard the words, his heart froze.
He opened his mouth, but was dumb after all.
How could Gao Jin not know that this Lord Song was a close confidant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Since Lord Song said this, does it mean that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also...
Song Zhi said coolly:
"His Royal Highness explained before he left that the case will be handed over to the three divisions of Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Censor's Office, and the Jingzhao House will cooperate."
Gao Jin immediately raised his head, somewhat unbelievable.
"Three Divisions Trial?"
"It's not that a few women with little background were molested, and it's not a big case..."
Song Zhi sneered:
"No background..."
"Master Gao, you can think about it in secret, but you dare to say it?"
Gao Jin knew he had made a blunder, but if this case gets bigger, then...
Song Zhi continued to speak, his tone slightly sarcastic:
"Lord Gao, His Royal Highness the Prince would like to know how to go through the motions in Jingzhao Mansion?"
Gao Jin shuddered again when he heard the words, is this to bring out the old case?
Song Zhi added:
"Not a big case?"
"Master Gao, might as well tell you that the Crown Princess was also present today, and the Crown Princess personally repaired that one."
Song Zhiyang raised his chin and gestured to Gao Jin to the man in green who was beaten the most.
"To contaminate the eyes of the Crown Princess, Lord Gao, do you think His Royal Highness will make it a small case?"
Although Song Zhi said so, he still had some guesses in his heart. His Highness was not just angry at the crown.
This case may involve Zuo Xiang's mansion, and it may be an opportunity to get rid of Zuo Xiang's skin.
At this moment, Jing Zhaoyin Gao Jin's heart was constantly pounding, and it seemed that this case could not be done well.
And this time, if it doesn't work out, I'll be slapped with black yarn...
It was only at this moment that everyone in the room learned that the pair of men and women who had come to meddle in their business today were extremely handsome and extravagant, and they were His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess!
What kind of luck did I have to be lucky enough to meet those two nobles!
The women kept kowtowing on the ground,
"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for saving your life, and thank you for saving your life, Crown Princess..."
Then Xie Zhao ordered the Imperial Army to block the restaurant and **** everyone present today to Dali Temple for trial.
Xie Zhao was also sent to Dali Temple by Prince Feng Zhan to bring the forbidden army to assist in handling the case.
------
That night, there were several yamen in Shangjing, and several mansions were restless.
Originally, today was the second day of the winter hunt, but in the evening, Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, the Imperial Censor's Desk, and the Jingzhao House convened all night to deal with the case of beating at a restaurant in the western suburbs.
The officials had some doubts at first. Isn't it worth it for such a small case?
And when they learned that today's case was met by His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess personally, that the people involved were related to the Zuo Xiangfu, and it seemed that there was an old case that was suppressed, and when His Highness ordered a strict investigation, they all fought 120,000 points. Spirit.
Several officials have a keen political sense. In this case, pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud will probably involve many courtiers. Maybe the court will be shaken again.
Censorship Desk.
Ji Chong, the doctor of the censorship, after explaining to the two censors, he went to Dali Temple to find out the situation in person.
Among the censors in the censorship desk, one of them was Xu Wei, the father of Xu Jieyu, who was newly appointed by Emperor Hui.
The other was Ji Mu, who had just been transferred from the Ministry of Personnel to the Censor's Terrace.
Ji Mu pondered for a moment, then got up, went out of the censor's desk, and went to the Zuoxiang Mansion.
------
Left Prime Minister's House.
Left Prime Minister Wang Xian frowned in the study.
After returning to the mansion from the paddock in the western suburbs today, he thought about it again and again, and decided to leave a letter in person, because the mansion did not take good care of Han Shuangling, so that Han Shuangling had an unexpected miscarriage, and apologized to the Marquis of Guannei far away in Xuzhou.
It's more appropriate for Guan Neihou to get down this short pile by himself than to hear it from someone else's mouth.
Wang Xian was about to get up and go back to his room. The housekeeper came to report. Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and Jingzhao Mansion all sent people.
Wang Xian narrowed his eyes, feeling a little bad in his heart.
problem occurs.
After the people sent from the several departments left, Wang Xian's study sounded a few angry curses, accompanied by a burst of broken porcelain.
Then Wang Xian walked out of the study and strode angrily to Madam Wang's yard. On the way, he met Wang Jingheng, the eldest son of the Wang family, who had just received the news.
"Father." Wang Jingheng stopped his father.
"Go away." Wang Xian's beard was shaking.
In the end, Wang Jingheng and his father Wang Xian went to Mrs. Wang's place together.
Wang Xian was Mrs. Wang who was found in the Buddhist hall.
At that time, Mrs. Wang was kneeling in the Buddhist hall and reciting scriptures, and there was Wang Jingyi, the eldest lady of the Wang family, beside her.
Mrs. Wang stopped muttering and looked sadly at the eldest daughter beside her.
"Yi Er, tell me, did your father do something wrong, and the retribution came to my grandson..."
With a "bang", the door of the Buddhist hall was pushed open.
Mrs. Wang and Wang Jingyi turned to look at the door, and saw Wang Xian striding forward with a cold face, with Wang Jingheng behind him.
Before waiting for a few people to greet him, Wang Xian said coldly to Madam Wang:
"Your nephew Li Jing has done something again. This time it's not just me who can't help him, but the Prime Minister's residence may be implicated."
Madam Wang and Wang Jingyi were both shocked.
what happened?
At this time, the butler's voice came from outside:
"Master Xiang, Lord Ji from Censor Terrace is visiting."
Wang Xian and Wang Jingheng turned towards the door at the same time.
Ji Mu?
Wang Xian gave Mrs. Wang a cold look again, and flung his sleeves away.
Wang Jingheng looked at his mother and hesitated. He was very helpless to his cousin Li Jing, who lost both parents in his early years. He didn't expect him to stab such a big basket this time.
In the end, Wang Jingheng didn't say anything, and followed Wang Xian to the study.
After the father and son left, Mrs. Wang slumped on the futon, and Wang Jingyi hurried over to let Mrs. Wang follow her back.
Madam Wang lost her mind at this time, she looked up at Wang Jingyi, held Wang Jingyi's hand, and said:
"Yi'er, go take a look."
Wang Jingyi couldn't bear her mother's anxiety, nodded and got up to go out.
------
Left Prime Minister Wang Xian's study.
After Ji Mu took his seat, he went straight to the point:
"Master Xiang, the eldest son, the adverse impact of today's case on your house can be big or small. The lower official has an idea."
Wang Xian admires Ji Mu very much. This person has unique views on political affairs, and now he is recommended to the Censor's Desk. Wang Xian also wants to hear Ji Mu's views on this matter.
"But it doesn't matter."
Ji Mu spoke calmly:
"This case will be tried by the three divisions, and the Censor Desk will guide the direction of the case to a certain extent."
"Recently, there are two vacancies in the Censor's Office. Although the official position is not high, the lower official suggested that Mrs. Xiang may consider letting Miss Wang fill this vacancy and become a female official in the Censor's Desk."
Ji Mu's words surprised both Wang Xian and Wang Jingheng.
female officer?
Jimu continued:
"With Miss Wang sitting on the censor's desk, when handling this case, it will make the censors' considerations a little skewed. Compared with the prime minister who is far away in the prime minister's residence, the impact is extraordinary."
Wang Jingheng said in doubt:
"In this case, shouldn't Zuo Xiangfu avoid suspicion?"
Ji Mu smiled:
"The Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion should indeed avoid suspicion, but in the end, whether or not this disaster can be avoided, the position of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion will also be considered in the presence of His Majesty and His Royal Highness."
There was silence in the study.
"Father." The door was suddenly knocked a few times, interrupting the contemplation of several people in the room.
When Wang Jingyi went outside the study, she just heard the last few words of Ji Mu, female officer?
Before waiting for the servants outside the door to reply, Wang Jingyi stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Come in." It was the voice of the left minister, Wang Xian.
Wang Jingyi pushed the door in and said directly:
"Father, let me go."
Wang Xian and Wang Jingheng frowned slightly, apparently Jingyi heard their conversation just now.
Ji Mu glanced at Wang Jingyi and retracted his gaze.
He certainly saw the wrong person.
There was another silence in the study, and Wang Xian asked Xiang Jimu:
"At this juncture, can the Censor Desk still send people in?"
Jimu replied:
"Xiaguan will give you a message tomorrow."
Wang Xian nodded.
------
After coming out of Wang Xian's study, Ji Mu passed the front yard and stopped by a flowerbed.
After a while, footsteps came from behind, it was a woman.
Ji Mu slowly turned around and looked at the young lady from Zuo Xiangfu, Wang Jingyi.
Wang Jingyi did not bring a maid, and caught up with Ji Mu alone.
"Master Ji, are you waiting for me?"
Wang Jingyi stopped two steps away from Ji Mu, frowning at the man in front of her, who was elusive to her.
Ji Mu lightly pulled the corners of his lips, with a slight smile in his eyes,
"Miss is very smart."
Wang Jingyi felt a little sullen in her heart, saying she was smart in front of this man was nothing but a sleight of hand.
Ji Mudan smiled and said:
"The eldest miss wants to ask me, why did you recommend you to go to the Censor's Desk?"
Wang Jingyi guessed that the man was behind the prince, but in today's matter, whether the prince was taking the opportunity to attack the Zuo Xiangfu, it is unknown.
What is this guy doing?
Ji Mu saw Wang Jingyi's doubts and precautions, and smiled lightly:
"You don't have to worry about it, Miss, I just think that Miss is suitable to be an official."
Wang Jingyi had a suspicious look on her face.
"Suitable to be an official?"
Ji Mu put away a bit of leisure, and his tone was serious:
"I think it's not just those who are extremely intelligent and knowledgeable who are suitable for officials. They also need to understand the rules and use them."
"If you want to hold a knife, you need to have the stopping power to restrain yourself from swinging the knife down."
"Miss, don't belittle yourself."
Ji Muchao Wang Jingyi nodded and left.
Wang Jingyi looked at Ji Mu's back for a long time.
"If you want to hold a knife, you need to have the stopping power to restrain yourself from swinging the knife down."
This sentence, she once wrote in an article of her own communication with her brother.
Has he seen his own policy theory?
It wasn't until Ji Mu disappeared in the direction of the mansion that Wang Jingyi turned and left with a complicated look.

Western suburbs paddock.
Feng Subei took Qin Lin back to the camp on horseback.
Although Qin Lin still didn't let go, Feng Subei felt that Qin Lin no longer seemed to resist him so much, so he was a little relieved.
Two people came over from a distance, they were Song Zhi and Qin Xi.
Song Zhi first ran to Feng Subei in front of him:
"Prince, His Royal Highness has summoned him."
And Qin Xi followed closely,
"Qin Lin."
Qin Lin, who was sitting in front of Feng Subei, had red ears, and she was about to go down.
Feng Subei didn't insist any longer, turned over and dismounted, and then helped Qin Lin down.
Feng Subei saw that this place was not far from the camp, and there seemed to be guards of the Crown Princess in the distance. Feng Subei gave Qin Lin a deep look, then mounted the horse and rode away together with Song Zhi.
On horseback, Qin Xi asked curiously:
"Where have you been today?"
Qin Lin, who was behind her, didn't answer.
Qin Xi pouted and looked at the two backs who left in the distance, with some regret in his eyes.
It's a pity that the family has a master, and A-Niang won't let you be a concubine.

Shangjing, Duanwangfu.
An Yanxi sat in the room with a frown, and it seemed difficult to stretch her brows.
Just now, a close friend of mine came over from the western suburbs hunting ground and brought her some not-so-good news.
This afternoon, Feng Subei rode together with a girl in the paddock. Although the person who brought the news said that he could not see the girl's face clearly, An Yanxi immediately thought of the girl that Feng Subei rescued in Taiye Lake that day. woman.
The daughter of the newly appointed Minister of Industry, Qin Lin.
Qin Yan's cousin.
After a while, An Yanxi ordered:
"Get ready and go to the paddock in the western suburbs tomorrow."
The maid is a little puzzled. Tomorrow will be the last day of the winter hunting, so the princess will only go at this time?
The little maid knows that since the prince and the prince got married, the husband and wife have not even seen each other several times, and they haven't even gotten married yet.
But the maid was overjoyed again. Could it be that Concubine Shizi finally figured it out?
------
The hunting ground in the western suburbs, the royal tent of the saint.
At this time, Emperor Hui sat in the imperial tent, the prince Feng Zhan, the second prince Feng Xian, the third prince Feng Yi, and the prince of Duan Wangfu Feng Subei.
Song Zhi, who was standing beside the prince, briefly recounted the beating case at the Guandao restaurant today. Emperor Hui coughed a few times, and the prince said in a deep voice:
"This case may involve important officials in the DPRK, and a member of the royal family is needed to temporarily take the responsibility of Jingzhao Yin."
Several people were silent for a moment, and the third prince Feng Yi said:
"Brother the Crown Prince knows that I have nothing to do with wild cranes, how can I have the ability to take on such an important task?"
In fact, several people in this imperial tent at the moment understand that Jing Zhaoyin's position is not only not high for them, but also offends others, which is not very cost-effective.
Feng Subei was about to answer the call and let him go, the second prince Feng Xian spoke first:
"I go."
Several people present were a little surprised, he?
Feng Xian continued:
"Father, the prince and brother, I am familiar with the affairs of Beijing over the years. I must be able to get started quickly in the position of Jing Zhaoyin, so let me go."
Feng Xian's words were so sincere that Emperor Hui and the Crown Prince took a high look.
The prince nodded, agreeing.
------
After coming out of Emperor Hui's tent, Song Zhi stepped forward and said in a low voice:
"His Royal Highness, Mr. Ji has news."
After the prince left, the third prince Feng Yi joked to the second prince Feng Xian:
"Second emperor brother, righteousness."
Feng Xian didn't answer, and left.
The third prince, Feng Yi, mounted his horse and went to a forest edge far from the camp.
Feng Yi dismounted, walked to a big tree,
"Come out."
The voice fell, and a woman wrapped in a thick cloak walked out from behind the tree.
Feng Yi took two steps forward, his voice a bit gloomy:
"Stop that person's medicine recently, he can't die too early, otherwise the crown prince will be more troublesome if he takes over the throne."
"Yes." The woman nodded.
Feng Yi took another step, grabbed the woman's slender waist, and pushed the woman against the rough tree trunk behind her.
"Ah..." The woman whispered.
Feng Yi leaned over and pressed against the woman, his hands were moving, his voice was hoarse:
"do you miss me?"
"Your Highness, watch out for someone."
If anyone who knows it hears it, they will surely realize that this female voice is the one who trains the horse on the racetrack today.
Ning Concubine.
