Reborn, after dressing up as a vicious female supporting character
Chapter 292: Lingyou, the Governor of E
The sudden words "E prefect" in broad daylight made people's hair stand on end.
Song Lianhe looked over quickly and it was Jiuer!
After she shouted, she was also very frightened and quickly hid behind E Jintang.
With Jiuer's interference, the situation got out of control. The timid ones screamed and ran away. The surroundings were suddenly in chaos. Women screamed, children cried, and some ran home holding their men's ears.
The two groups that were previously on the verge of a fight quickly retreated back to their respective masters, fearing that someone would take the opportunity to cause trouble.
At this moment, a faint clicking sound was heard from the Huaxufang behind everyone.
Xuan Mei reacted very quickly, picked up Song Lianhe, and pushed Daxi to Madam E, saying, "Let's go!"
Mrs. E's originally crazy eyes immediately became clear, and she grabbed Daxi and ran away without saying a word!
Jiuer hurriedly patted E Jintang, "Let's go! This place is going to collapse!"
When E Jintang heard this, he picked her up and threw her on his back, then grabbed the hammer and ran away.
Gu Ha also sensed the danger, "Prince! Let's go!"
At the critical moment, Zhou Junlin hugged Song Xilan by the waist and said, "Hold on to me!"
Song Xilan didn't have time to think about it, she buried her head in his arms, clutching his clothes tightly with both hands, and then a rumbling sound came from her ears, as if a dragon was moving around in the earth.
Then, the tall building behind him collapsed instantly, raising a cloud of dust.
This sudden change shocked everyone present.
No one realized it until later. Fortunately, Jiuer's earlier shout of "Prefect E" scared everyone away. Otherwise, the building collapsed so suddenly, and some of the elderly, the weak, women and children failed to dodge in time, which would have caused casualties!
"It was Governor E who appeared and saved us all!"
"Yes, it's Governor E! Governor E!"
"E Taishou is my father's father. He devoted all his life to helping us leave Zongguan when he was alive, and he also protects us after his death! May the spirit of E Taishou bless us, and may E Taishou live forever!"
"E Taishou Lingyou, E Taishou forever!"
"E Taishou Lingyou, E Taishou forever..."
The people knelt down in front of the ruins.
Madam E stared at the scene in a daze. She turned her head blankly and looked at the ruins. Tears rolled down her cheeks and she murmured, "Master, you saw it, didn't you?"
E Jintang stood there tall, already crying uncontrollably.
Song Lianhe was also moved when he saw this. When the governor of E was alive, he worked hard for the people. Only virtue and morality can win the hearts of the people. Even if he was splashed with dirty water after his death, the people could still tell right from wrong.
She raised her head, and there was a gray mist above her head. She thought that one day the mist would clear.
She took a deep breath and said loudly to everyone, "Since I, Song Lianhe, promised to clear the name of Governor E, I will do what I say! Please bear witness for me here. Madam E missed her husband so much that she caused a disaster. I will be responsible to the end. After Huaxufang is repaired, I will hand it over to Boss Zhen. During this period, all losses will be borne by me!"
After saying this, she stood solemnly, folded her hands at her waist, and bowed to the people.
As the Princess of King Qing, performing the ritual of gathering together for the common people is a great honor!
"Princess Qing, you can't do that!"
"Princess Qing is so righteous!"
The people also knelt down and bowed to her.
At this moment, a team of soldiers appeared, led by a man wearing golden armor and riding a tall horse.
When Song Lianhe saw him, he smiled immediately. What an acquaintance!
Cao Jin dismounted and said, "Meet Princess Qing."
"Commander Cao, why are you here?"
Cao Jin is the commander of the imperial guard in charge of Ling'an City and is affiliated with the emperor's personal guard. It is really strange that he appears here.
"Princess Qing, I have come here to ask for your permission to return home to attend the funeral."
"My condolences. Uh, which of your family members passed away?"
"E Taishou."
"..."
"The governor of E is my cousin's uncle."
Song Lianhe understood and introduced herself again: "Master E's cousin."
She didn't dare say that she was the cousin of the prefect E, as taking advantage of the deceased would be disrespectful.
But if that’s the case, then she is also Cao Jin’s...aunt?
Obviously, Cao Jin also understood the seniority. The two looked at each other silently, and then looked away tacitly.
His gaze fell on Xuan Mei, and Cao Jin's originally cold eyes showed a hint of strangeness.
The latter just glanced at him lightly, then turned his eyes away, staying by Song Lianhe's side all the time.
This time, Cao Jin brought a team of imperial guards out of the palace. He immediately ordered the guards to surround the place and not allow anyone to approach.
Cao Jin turned around and glanced vaguely at the teahouse opposite.
The second floor of the teahouse.
"Princess, you are so powerful!" The shadow guard said, "It's so satisfying! This way, Huaxufang is under our control."
Zhou Cangyan supported his head with one hand, and his thin lips inadvertently raised a sharp arc. Only when he looked at his girl, his light blue eyes would overflow with a bit of brilliance.
"Yes, she is so capable, we should fight for her to be given an imperial title."
The shadow guard looked at his master in disbelief.
Is this the imperial decree?
Did you ask His Majesty for his opinion?
At this moment, Zhenniang's face showed panic. She didn't expect that even the Imperial Guards would be dispatched!
She went to see Zhou Junlin first.
Zhou Junlin kept staring at Song Lianhe, his eyes cold and indifferent.
Song Xilan really didn't expect Song Lianhe to have this trick!
Let the people of the whole city bear witness. Now that Huaxufang has been officially taken over by her, Zhenniang is a "businessman". Those who run entertainment venues are all interested in profit, so she should be more than happy to do so! If she strongly opposes it at this moment, it will definitely make people feel frozen.
This move is tantamount to cutting off Zhou Junlin's retreat.
"Before, I really underestimated this sister." She said faintly, "I thought she was just a little spoiled, but I didn't expect that she could be so scheming."
Song Xilan didn't have to say anything, Zhou Junlin understood.
Yes, the fact that she could take over Huaxufang in front of the people of the whole city so naturally was enough to show her scheming.
Even though he saw it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears, Zhou Junlin still didn't want to believe it!
As early as when they were in Suining City, he had made clear her feelings. He knew that she still had her in her heart, and it was difficult for her to be with the emperor's uncle against the will of the emperor.
But now Zhou Junlin couldn't understand it.
Cao Jin came up to him and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Ling."
Zhou Junlin looked over calmly, "Why would Commander Cao come all the way to Liguan Sect when he is not in Ling'an protecting His Majesty?"
"Replying to Lord Ling, I have requested permission from His Majesty to attend the funeral of my cousin, the Governor of E, on behalf of my father and mother."
"As far as I know, Scholar Cao is from Ling'an."
Cao Jin said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Don't you know, Prince Ling? The governor of E is also from Ling'an."
Zhou Junlin's eyes changed slightly, he stared at him quietly for a moment, and said: "I think since Governor E is Commander Cao's cousin, Commander Cao knows him better than I do. To be honest with Commander Cao, I came here because someone reported Governor E for corruption, but I didn't expect that Governor E would meet with an unexpected accident. I have no choice but to investigate and give Governor E justice."
"Your Highness Prince Ling, you don't need to tell me what you want to do. I am here only to pay my respects to my uncle."
Cao Jin bowed to him, turned and left.
Zhou Junlin narrowed his eyes, with a sinister glint in his eyes.
"Commander Cao is King Qing's man. It will not be easy for Your Highness to win him over."
He was startled and turned around to look.
Song Xilan stood there and smiled at him, a pretty and elegant lady.
