A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous

He has a good family background, good looks, and superb martial arts skills. What kind of woman wouldn't a man like him want?

Moreover, from their conversation just now, he had already heard that the marriage between Prince Wang and Wen Meijiu was arranged by their parents, and that Wen Meijiu was wishful thinking, and Prince Wang did not agree.

Well, if he only arrested Wen Meijiu, could he report to his uncle and satisfy Prince Wang?

"Miss Wen, where are the rebels you just mentioned?"

The county magistrate had a faint sly smile on his face, his hands behind his back, and walked slowly towards Wen Meijiu.

Wen Meijiu was just eyeing the grains with envy when he was suddenly brought back to reality by the county magistrate.

"Oh, County Magistrate, that's exactly what I meant. They may be hiding in some corner of this yard. You can send someone to look for them."

"Are you trying to tease me?"

The county magistrate curled his lips and narrowed his eyes. The sunlight shone on her body, as if it had gilded her body. As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. She was incredibly beautiful.

She is truly a beauty who brings disaster, no wonder her uncle is determined to get her, the county magistrate licked the tip of his tongue.

The county magistrate glanced in the direction of Master Wang. He stood at a certain distance from Wen Meijiu, which showed that he disliked Wen Meijiu.

When Master Wang saw the county magistrate looking at him, he turned his head slightly to the side. He was not afraid of the worst, but was afraid of ten thousand things, because who knew who he belonged to.

Prince Wang's action brought a ripple of joy to the county magistrate's heart. His guess turned out to be correct.

The county magistrate pretended to be nonchalant and walked to the side of Master Wang, then walked from Master Wang's side to the side of Wen Meijiu.

Paceing around the warm wine, he seemed to be playing with a prey, and his expression was even more intriguing.

"Miss Wen, if there are no rebels here, you won't be able to prove your innocence. You have to go to the county government with me."

After saying this, the county magistrate deliberately raised his eyes to glance at Master Wang, and then his gaze fell back on Wen Meijiu.

That look was definitely not unintentional, but deliberate.

He only mentioned Wen Meijiu in his words just now, and did not mention Master Wang and Zhi Zheng, which means that he can let Master Wang and Zhi Zheng go, depending on whether Wen Meijiu cooperates with him.

If she argued with reason, then she couldn't blame him for being ruthless and arresting all three of them.

His meaning was so obvious that Wen Meijiu understood it, but she was not great enough to give up herself in order to save Prince Wang.

"Sir, how can you believe the words of a sinner?

The lawyer just said that Boss Chen likes to talk nonsense. Didn’t you arrest him for talking nonsense?

Besides, all of Boss Chen's words came from Shopkeeper Tong. Wouldn't it be clearer to ask Shopkeeper Tong?"

Without waiting for the county magistrate to respond, Wen Meijiu turned around and asked the shopkeeper Tong who was trembling with fear in the corner.

The timing is right now. Boss Chen has been arrested and there is no one behind the scenes forcing Shopkeeper Tong. Based on her understanding of Shopkeeper Tong, he would not dare to make up lies.

No matter what kind of character Boss Chen has, he is his livelihood. Now that Boss Chen has been arrested, it seems that Qingfeng Tower can no longer be saved. Where will he go in the future?

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Wen Meijiu was fearless as he walked up to Shopkeeper Tong and reached out to pull Shopkeeper Chen up.

Looking at Shopkeeper Tong, Wen Meijiu put away his ruthlessness from last time and smiled at him with curved eyebrows.

Shopkeeper Tong had already seen the power of Wen Meijiu, and her smile made him even more frightened, and his body kept shaking.

The moment his hand left Shopkeeper Tong's hand, Wen Meijiu stuffed the fifty-liang silver note he took out from the space into Shopkeeper Tong's hand.

He gently patted Manager Tong on the shoulder and said slowly:

"Shopkeeper Tong, you are a good person. Don't let Shopkeeper Chen take advantage of you again."

Shopkeeper Tong was also surprised to find that there was something extra in his hand. Just as he was about to lower his head, he was stopped by Wen Meijiu.

"Shopkeeper Tong, I know you are an honest person, not as greedy as Boss Chen.

Tell me, why did Boss Chen throw dirty water on me just now? "

Wen Meijiu was praising him on the surface, but secretly reminding Manager Tong that he was holding money.

Shopkeeper Tong quickly received this signal and immediately felt at ease. At the same time, he looked at Wen Meijiu with gratitude.

He has an eighty-year-old mother and four hungry sons, all of whom are relying on him to bring money home to live. He has only been in Qingfeng Tower for a month and thought he had married above his station, but he did not expect to be in such a situation now.

Wen Meijiu gave him silver notes, the smallest denomination of which was fifty taels. With this money, their whole family would not have to worry about food and drink.

Looking at the warm wine, Shopkeeper Tong was so excited that he was speechless for a moment. His lips kept trembling and his eyes were shining with tears.

He was about to speak when he was interrupted by a deep and steady male voice.

"My Lord, don't embarrass a little girl. If you have any questions, just ask me. She and I are together. We will rise and fall together."

Prince Wang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, which startled the county magistrate so much that he quickly turned around to look at the person.

Doesn't he dislike warm wine?

The county magistrate frowned deeply, looked at Prince Wang who was walking towards him in confusion, and reminded him:

“My Lord, please think twice.

You two are not married, and if she committed a crime, it was only her crime. You were not involved, so it has nothing to do with you."

Prince Wang really didn't intend to speak for Wen Meijiu just now. He just wanted to see if Wen Meijiu had any way to escape.

When he thought of her going to see Manager Tong, he couldn't help but wonder if she was in her right mind.

She had just threatened the shopkeeper Tong with a knife. Now he hated her so much, so why would he speak up for her?

With a sigh in his heart, thinking that he had overestimated her, Prince Wang decided to take action himself.

Prince Wang ignored the county magistrate's warning, walked up to Wen Meijiu, and took her arm.

Wen Meijiu looked at him in confusion, thinking to herself, she was about to succeed, what was he doing?

Unable to ask the question, she could only glare at him, but she found that he glared at her even more fiercely than she did.

His big hand suddenly moved from her arm to her waist, pulling her tightly into his arms. He turned to the county magistrate and said:

"All marriages in the world are arranged by the parents and matchmakers.

Since I am engaged to her and the wedding date is approaching, if she has something wrong, I have something wrong too.

"Your Excellency, you have achieved your current position thanks to your own efforts, but also thanks to the support of Governor Song, right?"

Song Zhizhou! How did he know Song Zhizhou?

Hearing these three words, the county magistrate's face changed drastically and he asked hurriedly:

"How did Prince Wang know about my mentor?"

What mentor? It's nothing more than a person who buys official positions looking for connections and a backer to make himself feel at ease.

To put it bluntly, it means finding a mountain higher than yourself to lean on so that you can ask for help when you encounter trouble in the future.
