Bewitching prince my husband

Chapter 165: Officials, these are the so-called officials

I got up at dawn, after Feixue waited on me to dress, she followed me to the hall, all the officials had been waiting for a long time, looking at their busy appearance, some of them arrived overnight, right?

"Feixue, let's serve breakfast." It was early in the morning, they probably didn't eat, and of course, I didn't either, I'm not hungry, but if I let Chi Zhonghan know that I don't eat, I will take his food again The men went crazy.

Fei Xue knew what I meant, and just glanced at the stiff officials present, and after saying "yes", she stepped back and gave orders.

Seeing me entering the hall, eight or nine members of the palace hurriedly knelt down, "Meet the princess."

Well, early in the morning, these people have a large lung capacity, which really makes me feel ashamed.

"Get up, don't kneel all the time early in the morning, come and sit down." When I got to the seat, I waved my hand to tell them not to be restrained.

After everyone got up, Wang Wei, the leader, hesitated for a moment before sitting aside. After the other officials sat down one by one, Wang Wei bowed and reported:

"Reporting to the princess, these officials are all county magistrates who came from nearby. They are also responsible for the handling of Qinglan Village and Chi Qingcheng."

Glancing at the several county magistrates under his seat, they were all of different ages, and their official ranks were the same in terms of clothing, but the areas under their jurisdiction were different.

"Everyone has worked hard." I said.

Everyone waved their heads and threatened: "No hard work, no hard work..."

I pulled out a smile, "About the matter of Qinglan Village, haven't you adults heard of it before?" I asked very lightly, with a faint smile, very kind.

However, all the officials present here turned pale and their eyes flickered, and no one dared to answer.

Supporting my chin with my hands and the handle of the chair, I smiled and looked at the officials next to me, "What? Haven't you heard the news, my lords? As far as I know, there are several officials under their jurisdiction. The land is not very far from Qinglan Village, why haven't you heard any news?"

Wang Wei's expression also changed slightly, "My lord..."

I waved my hand, "Master Wang, you should sit down for a while, I'm asking them." I looked at the people in the next seat whose faces were pale with fright, and waited for their answer.

No one dared to answer.To be precise, no one dared to meet me head-on, they were all avoiding my sight, except for one...

"Princess." The last official sitting on the left got up, walked to the middle and knelt down to me, but he was neither humble nor overbearing.

Looking at him, he seems to be very young, about 27 or [-] years old, with a very ordinary appearance, but there is a stubborn and refined temperament in his bones.

"Who is kneeling?" I still propped my chin and looked at the kneeling person with a smile, asking indifferently.

"The next official is the county magistrate of Chiqing County, Xu Xian."

"Oh?" I looked at him, "Get up and talk."

"Thank you, Princess." Xu Xian got up, still standing where he was, and continued to report: "The magistrate has long heard about the collusion between the magistrate and the profiteer to kill Mo, and he has visited the door many times to no avail; he has no choice but to conduct a private investigation. However, the magistrate secretly sent someone to not only destroy the evidence that the official had finally collected, but also to issue a foot ban order to the official on trumped-up charges, and the official was not allowed to leave the county for half a year."

"Oh? How long have you been in Chiqing County?" I asked.

"It's been almost a year since I returned to the princess."

That is to say, this person started investigating the dog officer not long after he took office?Should it be said that he is 'a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers', or is he a newcomer who doesn't know what's going on?

"Aren't you from Chiqing County? Where did you work as an official?" I changed my hand to support my chin, and this time my smile was a little different, full of interest.

"Yes, the next official is from [Chiyuecheng], [-]th grade, has been serving as magistrate in Chiyue County, and was transferred to Chiqing County last year." Xu Xian answered honestly one by one.

"Chiyue City? It's really not close."

Our Dachi country is divided into four states, eight cities, and 64 counties.And Chiyue City is located on the easternmost side of Chi Country, a city on the border with other countries; and here is located in the southwest of Chi Country... There is half of Chi Country in between, this transfer is really... It seems that he Did he offend someone and was sent here?

interesting.

I've been here for seven years, and I'm still a county magistrate... I can't help but look at this person more often.

"Is there any evidence you have found?"

"Yes. I realized something was wrong at that time, so I kept another copy from my best friend. I came here overnight and brought it with me." Xu Xianyan said, then took out a letter from his cuff, and took two steps forward. , Leng Wuyan blocked it with a dodge.

Leng Wuyan took the letter and handed it back to me. I glanced at him and saw that he stepped aside again, so I ignored him.

"Very well, you can sit back." I casually glanced at the evidence in the letter and put it aside.After Xu Xian sat back to the original position, I continued to speak leisurely: "I know why no one answered except Mr. Xu. It's not that you didn't hear the news, but you didn't dare to take care of it."

These people even knew that Chi Zhonghan had been in Chi Qingcheng for two or three days, and they all came overnight when something happened, not to mention that the dog official was so arrogant, he made things so big, and for so many years , I don't know that's strange.

I don't know what these officials think about my words, but at least I know that these people are afraid at the moment, and they are afraid of what crime they will be punished.

I smiled, took my hands back, and straightened my head, "Before the court arranges for someone to come down, Xu Xian will temporarily act as the prefect of Chi Qingcheng. Do you have any other suggestions?"

Everyone thought that my arrangement was the most appropriate, and no one dared to offer a 'high opinion', so I said again: "Master Wang and Mr. Xu stay here, and the other lords should go back to the post house to rest first. After a night's journey, it's okay. It's all hard work."

Everyone staggered back while saying "no hard work". Looking at their appearance, a sentence suddenly popped up in my heart: officials, these are all officials.

After those officials had all withdrawn, Fei Xue came to report at the right time: "My lord, breakfast is ready."

"En." I replied, and when I got up, I looked at Wang Wei and Xu Xian, who were left behind by me, "Let's go together, my lords." There are not many snacks and breakfasts, only for four or five people.

I sat down next to the main seat, glanced at the two who were still standing stiffly by the table, and couldn't help laughing, "You two don't need to be polite, let's sit down together, I still have a lot of things to discuss with you two."

Only then did the two sit down cautiously, and someone entered the room. The domineering aura leaked out of the windy robes, and they knew who it was without looking at me.

Just as they were about to make a sound, the two of them stood up and quickly knelt down: "My lord!"

"Get up." Chi Zhonghan didn't even look at the kneeling person, he came directly towards me, sat on the main seat, beside me, and smiled softly at me, "Is it over?"
