Chapter 131 Old Friend
Doctor Feng was so frightened that he didn't understand what they had done.
But one thing he understood was that since ancient times, people have not fought with officials. If he were caught, he would have to shed his skin even if he didn't die.
"Hey, sir, sir, have you made a mistake? We are all good citizens." Doctor Feng bowed his hands and begged for mercy, and offered a tael of silver in distress.
If he had known this, no matter how much money he was given, he would not have come to the county seat today. It's fine now, I don't know if I can go back with all my hair and tail intact.
The soldier opened his eyes when he saw the money, took the silver and said, "You can leave, but the two people in the car must be taken away."
Anyway, the county magistrate only said he wanted to arrest the two people in the painting, not his accomplices.
"This..." Doctor Feng turned around and looked at Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu, not knowing what to do.
"It's okay, you can go." Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng got out of the car, and walked away with the soldiers guarding the city with calm expressions.
Compared to Doctor Feng's fear, Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng were not panicked at all.
Seeing the portraits of the two of them, Jiang Shu guessed that Zhuiyun Zhufeng was most likely looking for them.
It's just that I really don't agree with this method.
The two were taken to the county government office, and the soldier reported excitedly: "Sir, the person has been found."
The county magistrate, who was handling official business in a high position, suddenly raised his head when he heard this.
"Changhuai?" The moment he saw the county magistrate clearly, Jiang Shu said in surprise.
"Jiang... Young Master, Prince." Shen Changhuai blurted out and wanted to call her 'Miss Jiang', but saw Jiang Shu dressed in men's clothing and quickly changed his words.
"Your Majesty Shen Changhuai, I have met His Royal Highness King Jing." Shen Changhuai stood up and walked quickly to Yu Zheng, knelt down and saluted.
After hearing this, several soldiers who wanted to take credit were so frightened that their legs weakened. They knelt down tremblingly and saluted: "I have seen Jing...His Royal Highness King Jing."
Oh my god, they thought they were secretly catching some criminal, but who knew that the person they were looking for was the current King Jing.
It's over, it's over, they were so rude just now and accepted bribes in front of His Highness King Jing, it's definitely over.
Several people were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat. They knelt on the ground and did not dare to breathe.
"Master Shen, please get up." Yu Zheng's voice was cold.
Shen Changhuai stood up and respectfully stepped aside: "Your Majesty, please sit down."
Yu Zheng did not move. He stared at the kneeling soldiers with dark eyes and said, "The soldiers guarding the city accepted bribes and acted lawlessly. Does Master Shen know?"
Shen Changhuai was shocked when he heard this: "I don't know."
"Master Shen knows now."
"Yes, I will definitely deal with it strictly to correct the unhealthy trend."
Shen Changhuai bowed his hands in response and ordered in a deep voice: "Come here, take them down and let me interrogate them personally."
"Sir, spare your life, Your Highness King Jing, please spare your life. I don't dare to do it anymore." Several people kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Yu Zheng was unmoved, and Shen Changhuai quickly asked someone to take them away to avoid offending Yu Zheng.
"Why is Master Shen looking for this king?" Yu Zheng looked at Shen Changhuai and asked.
Shen Changhuai explained respectfully: "It was the prince's personal guards who came to the county government office and asked the subordinates to find the whereabouts of the prince."
"Please forgive me for offending you. Guard Zhuiyun said that the identity of the prince cannot be disclosed to avoid putting the prince in danger, so he had no choice but to take this approach."
As they expected, Yu Zheng was not surprised at all.
Hearing Shen Changhuai mention Zhuiyun Zhufeng, Jiang Shu was about to speak when Zhufeng arrived after receiving the news.
"Master." Zhufeng was excited to see Yu Zheng safe and sound.
When Jiang Shu saw that Zhufeng was fine, he was very excited and asked him directly: "Is Tanyu okay?"
"She's fine. Something happened to Zhuiyun." Zhufeng was a little unhappy.
Hearing something in his words, Jiang Shu asked in shock: "But Tan Yu has caused trouble for you?"
Not only is it troublesome, it’s downright fatal!
Zhufeng said angrily: "In order to save her, Zhuiyun had his arm broken by a rock and his back was seriously injured."
This... Jiang Shu looked ashamed and understood why Zhufeng was angry.
"Where are they now?" Yu Zheng asked.
Shen Changhuai on the side said at the right time: "It's at the county government house."
Shen Changhuai personally led the way and brought Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu to the guest courtyard of the back house.
Zhuiyun was seriously injured and was resting in bed in the guest room. Tanyu held the medicine bowl and fed Zhuiyun the medicine spoon by spoon.
"Tan Yu." Jiang Shu called after entering the room and seeing Tan Yu.
Tan Yu hurriedly put down the medicine bowl when she heard the sound, and ran over excitedly.
"My boss." Seeing that Jiang Shu was safe and sound, Tan Yu cried with joy: "It's great that my boss is fine. I've been worried to death these past few days."
Zhuiyun was seriously injured trying to save her, making Tanyu feel guilty. Jiang Shu's whereabouts are unknown again, and Tan Yu has trouble sleeping and eating.
In the past few days, Tanyu has been living like a year.
"Master." Zhuiyun endured the pain and got out of bed to greet Yu Zheng.
Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Go back and lie down."
"Yes." Zhuiyun responded, and Tan Yu helped him sit and lie back on the bed.
Seeing Zhuiyun's hanging arms and pale complexion, Jiang Shu knew that he was seriously injured.
"Thank you for saving Tan Yu. I'm really sorry for causing you to be so seriously injured." Jiang Shu thanked him first and then apologized.
Zhuiyun felt ashamed and said quickly: "Miss Jiang, you don't have to be like this, I am willing to do it."
Even without his master's orders, he would try his best to save Tan Yu.
Because he likes her.
After some questioning, Shen Changhuai prepared a guest room for Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu to settle in.
After a day's journey, Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng were indeed tired. After taking a hot bath to relieve their fatigue, they had dinner with Shen Changhuai.
During the dinner, Jiang Shu asked curiously: "Chang Huai, didn't you take office in Hengzhou? Why did you come to Qixian?"
Shen Changhuai replied: "I was transferred here at the beginning of this year."
Shen Changhuai originally served as a county magistrate in Hengzhou. Who was transferred to a county magistrate?
Jiang Shu didn't understand officialdom, but Yu Zheng understood it as soon as he heard it.
Shen Changhuai must have offended his superiors, and what he said was a transfer was actually punishment.
If he hadn't come from the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, I'm afraid it wouldn't be as simple as being transferred.
"What about Yueyao and Aunt Liu?" Jiang Shu asked like an old friend.
Although Shen Changhuai is Shen Changze's younger brother, he is completely different from Shen Changze. He is an upright gentleman who understands kindness and reason.
Therefore, Jiang Shu would not vent his anger on him even if he had issues with the Marquis of Jing'an.
Meeting old friends in a foreign country is a joy.
Shen Changhuai glanced at Yu Zheng and whispered: "Take care of the children in the main courtyard. I will ask the maid to take you there later."
Jiang Shu nodded in agreement.
You are already at someone else’s house, so you should go and see them anyway.
Yu Zheng, who was left alone, saw Jiang Shu and Shen Changhuai chatting happily, and his face was sullen and unhappy.
He gave Jiang Shu a piece of ribs and pursed his lips to remind him: "The food is getting cold."
"Oh." Jiang Shu responded naturally, stopped talking and concentrated on eating.
Shen Changhuai was shocked when he saw Yu Zheng picking up vegetables for Jiang Shu.
When he saw Tan Yu the day before yesterday, he was very surprised as to why she was with King Jing's bodyguard. After inquiring, we learned that Jiang Shu ran into Yu Zheng when he was running business in Jiangnan, and they went back to Beijing together.
At that time, Shen Changhuai was shocked and confused. He didn't understand how Jiang Shu knew King Jing and was so familiar with King Jing.
Tan Yu was vague and refused to tell the details, and it was difficult for him to ask further questions.
At this time, seeing Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu getting along comfortably, Shen Changhuai suddenly understood something.
Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng are by no means just acquaintances.
He was shocked and confused. But he didn't dare to ask in front of Yu Zheng, so he could only suppress his doubts in his heart and look for another opportunity to ask Jiang Shu again.
