Chapter 76 Wanting to Be Jiang Lianzhi's Uncle
Fifty thousand seemed too much indeed. Dou Qing thought for a moment and said, "I won't waste time with you. Give me twenty thousand and forget it."
Suddenly, a voice that was neither cold nor indifferent was carried by the wind:
"It's really a big deal."
When Shen Yu heard this voice, she was shocked. Didn't he go to the palace today? Why was he here?
The crowd dispersed to make way, and the soldiers led the way. A carriage slowly drove to the door.
The carriage looked very ordinary. It should not be a high-ranking official. At most, he was a fifth or sixth rank official.
Dou Qing didn't take it seriously at all and glanced at him contemptuously, "Who are you?"
Xi Feng in the carriage seemed not to hear it, and got off the carriage and lifted the curtain.
Xie Tingzhou in the carriage was dressed in a blue shirt and his face was a little pale. He leaned against the wall of the carriage and looked at Shen Yu with a faint chill in his eyes.
Shen Yu hesitated for a long time before whispering, "Your Highness."
Dou Qing was startled and stammered, "Which, which Your Highness?"
There are more than ten princes in the capital, most of whom Dou Qing has never seen. It is really possible that he has met a royal relative.
Xie Tingzhou glanced sideways and said, "Tie him up."
Shen Yu was startled.
The next moment, she saw Dou Qing tied up with his hands behind his back.
"Hey, brother, you tied up the wrong person, oh, it hurts, it hurts..." Dou Qing howled, like a pig being slaughtered.
Xie Tingzhou raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, "Stop his mouth."
The police made a move, and soon only Dou Qing's wailing was left.
Xie Tingzhou had already entered the palace, but he felt unwell at the banquet, so he had to return to the palace first. On the way, he happened to meet the police from Shuntian Prefecture who received a report that someone was making trouble and came to deal with it.
This is the only way for Xie Tingzhou to return to the palace. Unexpectedly, the person making trouble was Shi Yu.
The yamen runners had already seen clearly that this person knew the prince of Beilin.
A yamen runner walked up to Shen Yu and said, "Please come back to the yamen with us, sir, and explain this matter clearly."
Shen Yu felt Xie Tingzhou's piercing gaze on her, and slowly stretched out her hand to let the runner tie it, "Sorry for bothering the runner, brother."
Xie Tingzhou's eyes were cold, and he pursed his lips and said, "Get in the car."
Shen Yu hesitated.
"Do you want me to ask you?" His voice became colder and colder, and after saying that, Xie Tingzhou turned his head and coughed twice.
Xie Tingzhou looked very pale today, and Shen Yu was afraid that he would be angry to death, so she quickly climbed into the carriage and sat at the door, not daring to look at Xie Tingzhou.
The curtain was lowered, and the light suddenly dimmed a little. The space inside the carriage was very large, with a small table in the middle, and a small heater on the side was emitting hot air.
Xifeng whipped the horse, and the carriage swayed gently.
The car was so quiet that Shen Yu had to lift a corner of the curtain and pretend to look out the window.
"Tens of thousands of taels of silver come out of your mouth, where are you going to rob the rich and help the poor?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
Shen Yu lowered the curtain and sat up straight, and said hesitantly: "You know where the silver comes from."
Xie Tingzhou snorted softly, sounding unhappy, and didn't know who had offended him again.
Xie Tingzhou didn't say anything, just looked at her indifferently, and asked after a moment: "I heard that you are Jiang Lianzhi's uncle?"
Shen Yu looked at Xie Tingzhou, with a puzzled look on her face: "What?"
Xie Tingzhou said: "Dou Qing's father is Jiang Lianzhi's uncle. If you want to be his father, don't you mean Jiang Lianzhi's uncle?"
Shen Yu: "...If I were his father, he would be angry to death sooner or later."
Xie Tingzhou had no smile in his eyes, "Why did you change your attitude when you heard that his cousin was Jiang Lianzhi."
Shen Yu didn't expect him to come so early, and even heard this part.
She thought about it and said, "His cousin is a third-rank official. I am just an ordinary citizen, so it is natural that the people should not compete with the officials."
Xie Tingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, his face was grim, and his lips were pressed into a straight line.
She was really bold, daring to make up nonsense in front of him. She was sure that he would not expose her directly, right?
Shen Yu met his heavy gaze, knowing that Xie Tingzhou didn't believe her words at all. Suddenly, she had an idea and said with a smile:
"Your Highness has a sharp eye and can see everything clearly. Nothing can escape your eyes."
"Your flattery skills have improved," Xie Tingzhou said, "Speak human language."
"Yes," Shen Yu sat upright and said, "I don't know if Your Highness still remembers when we were in the firewood room of the inn. In fact, I am not pretending to be gay at all. I am a real gay. Your Highness, such a beautiful woman in the world, didn't agree with me, so I could only settle for the second best. I heard that Lord Jiang is not bad, so I want to leave a good impression on him."
In addition to the improvement of her flattery skills, her nonsense skills are even more perfect.
She, a girl, told him that she is gay? Where is it? What is it?
Xie Tingzhou's face was ashen, and she was so angry that she had a headache. She closed her eyes, pressed her eyebrows and said, "Get out."
"Okay." Shen Yu lifted the curtain and found that she had arrived at the capital government office.
Since it was involved, the court had to go through.
When Shen Yu and Xie Tingzhou arrived at the court, Dou Qing had been untied and even found a seat, sitting on the side of the court with legs crossed to drink tea.
In the court was a thin old man with gray hair, and his official uniform was washed white. He looked like an honest official, but just because he untied Dou Qing and showed him tea, the water was a bit muddy.
When Liu Fu saw Xie Tingzhou in the court, he hurriedly came down to greet him and bowed to Xie Tingzhou, "Greetings, Prince, please take a seat."
Xie Tingzhou declined politely: "Lord Liu will judge, I am just an observer."
After saying that, he looked at Dou Qing, who quickly put down his tea and stood up.
Just now I heard Dou Qing call him the eldest son. This eldest son who was born in the capital has become like this. Apart from Xie Tingzhou, who else can you find?
I was afraid that today was going to be over, so I quickly winked at the boy standing at the door and asked him to hurry up and bring in reinforcements.
Liu Fu walked back to the hall and sat down. He was stunned and asked: "Who is there in the hall?"
Shen Yu raised her eyes and glanced at Xie Tingzhou, cupped her hands and said, "Greetings to your lord, Caomin Shiyu."
Dou Qing met Xie Tingzhou's cold gaze and said hurriedly: "My surname is Dou Mingqing."
One has no drumming, and the other has no complaint. One is the cousin of the minister, and the other seems to be acquainted with the prince.
Neither of them was easy to mess with, so Liu Fu did not follow the usual procedure and asked directly: "What do you two mean?"
Dou Qing immediately reprimanded: "Young master... I was walking on the street. He rushed up and hacked my horse to death. Not only did I get hurt, but he also drew his sword at me. Sir, such an arrogant person must not be allowed to do anything." "Qingrao."
