Zhan Qingyue walked forward with a dark face and looked at the old man on the ground coldly.
The girl cried like a tearful pear blossom, which made people moved.
It's a pity that in Zhan Qingyue's opinion, this girl can't even act well. Look at her delicate and artificial look, which makes people feel sick.
"Girl, your father is not dead. You are here crying and mourning. It is better not to stop me from saving people. If you keep delaying like this, he will really kick his legs."
Zhan Qingyue sarcastically mocked the girl in front of her, and quickly took out a silver needle from her arms.
The girl raised her eyes and looked at Zhan Qingyue in front of her carefully several times, and then looked at the carriage beside her.
The carriage they took out of the city today was not very luxurious, and it did not bear their own brand.
In the eyes of the girl in front of her, who was wearing commoner clothes and patches, she was already a remarkable person.
"Don't talk nonsense, what on earth do you want to do?"
Zhan Qingyue simply didn't want to have too much communication with this idiot. Could it be that he didn't speak clearly enough?
She was too lazy to say any more nonsense, so she picked up the silver needle and pierced it towards the old man lying on the ground.
Before the silver needle pierced the old man's body, the old man was so frightened by the shining silver needle that he could no longer pretend, and he opened his eyes in a daze.
However, the distance between the two was too close, and in the eyes of the onlookers, it was Zhan Qingyue who had insulted him.
Zhan Qingyue patted the dust on his hands, and ordered to the entourage behind him: "Hu San, quickly go to Jingzhao Yin to report to the official."
Hu San deliberately glanced at the father and daughter who had not yet reacted, and deliberately interrupted: "Girl, uncle, I will go find Mr. Zheng right now. Mr. Zheng has always been upright and will definitely clear up this unwarranted grievance for us."
When the old man and the girl heard this, they were stunned. They didn't expect that the ordinary-looking carriage could be related to Jing Zhaoyi's people.
Their faces were pale, their mouths were trembling, and they couldn't say a word for a long time.
Suddenly, the girl knelt down towards Zhan Qingyue.
"Noble, noble, please, please let us go. We didn't mean it. We were really poor and scared, so we had no choice but to make this decision."
The girl was crying and looking pitiful. She crawled towards Zhan Qingyue while crying.
Zhan Qingyue moved a few steps to the side in disgust, avoiding her hand.
The old man seemed to have come to his senses at this time. He knelt down tremblingly and kowtowed to Zhan Qingyue to apologize.
"Please, don't report to the police. My family is still young. If I report to the government, her life will be ruined."
Zhan Qingyue looked at the two people in front of her indifferently, curled her lips and snorted disdainfully.
"Now I know I was wrong. What did you do just now? The way you looked like you were blackmailing me just now was quite arrogant, wasn't it?"
This time it was the father and daughter's turn to be dumbfounded.
He never expected that the seemingly gentle and frail woman in front of him could be so cruel.
When the two of them were about to say something to refute, a neat figure came riding a tall horse, followed by two equally neat little maids.
That woman was obviously a noble daughter from a certain family in the capital.
She frowned, grabbed the horse, turned over and dismounted, and raised her hand to help the girl and the old man up without asking.
Then he glared at Zhan Qingyue fiercely: "What's wrong with you? This didn't hit your carriage, nor did it damage your carriage. Why do you have to stare at it? I've been watching you from behind for a long time. , how can you bully people like this?"
When Han Yiyun heard someone accusing Zhan Qingyue, his expression changed and he looked at the noble girl.
Unexpectedly, the noble lady also happened to look towards him.
"Cousin, I am Huo Yuxin, do you still remember me?"
Han Yiyun frowned slightly and muttered the name, but realized later that she was her mother's niece.
"Do you have anything to say? We don't seem to be familiar with each other."
Huo Yuxin's face looked a little ugly, but in a flash, she still smiled and moved toward Han Yiyun.
"Cousin, don't be like this. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I came out to seek justice. This woman Zhan Qingyue is so unreasonable. How can she bully the powerless civilians like this?"
No matter how good-tempered Zhan Qingyue was, he became angry when he heard her words.
"Miss, may I ask which of your eyes saw me bullying them? Where were you when they wanted me to pay for my life? You don't know anything, and you just talk nonsense here. Is there anyone like you?"
Huo Yuxin obviously didn't expect Zhan Qingyue to be so unreasonable.
She looked terribly ugly after being scolded by her, and because Han Yiyun was present, it was difficult to get angry.
She could only bite her back molars and said viciously: "Do you know who I am? I am the daughter of a mighty general. You, a county head born with muddy legs, do you really take yourself seriously?"
Zhan Qingyue almost laughed out of anger at her words.
Before he could refute, he heard a group of Imperial Guards riding past.
From afar, I heard the leader of the Imperial Guard shouting: "Zhan County Lord, Zhan County Lord, come with me quickly, the Holy Emperor wants to summon you."
Zhan Qingyue looked at the leader of the Imperial Guard very indifferently.
The leader of the Imperial Guard was obviously a very polite person. He got off his horse and saluted Zhan Qingyue and Han Yiyun before talking about the summons from the Holy Emperor.
The onlookers dispersed when the guards arrived.
Now only Huo Yuxin and her people are left in a stalemate here.
The old man and the girl making trouble were so pale at this moment that they could hardly stand.
"Miss Huo, I'm sorry, but I won't accompany you if I have something to do."
Zhan Qingyue put down these words lightly, got into the carriage and followed the guards.
Huo Yuxin watched the two people get on the carriage, but she was helpless and her nose was almost crooked with anger.
After entering the palace, Zhan Qingyue gave the Holy Ping An pulse as usual.
"Your Majesty, things are not going well with the grain merchants today."
The Holy Master narrowed his eyes slightly and listened to Zhan Qingyue's report.
I heard her talk about the grain merchant a few days ago, but I didn't expect there would be news so soon.
"Those grain merchants united to cause trouble. There are rumors that it was arranged by the Rongguo Mansion. I also heard that they had hoarded a lot of grain. I don't know what their plans were."
The saint's slightly narrowed eyes finally widened a little at this moment.
He had long been dissatisfied with Rong Guofu's domineering appearance.
Now he has framed other people's seeds as bad and started to stockpile grain again. Whether he wants to drive up grain prices or has some other intention, the Holy Spirit is very dissatisfied.
"Zhan County Lord, you have always been smart, just do whatever you want. I support you."
