Chapter 1159
Qiu Ling is a female official trained by Shang Gongju. She is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the little girl in front of her is a water spirit, but she has a rustic style, bad manners, and lacks appearance.
Ning Yue's eyes moved: "Since the princess likes it, let's accept it."
Deqing heaved a sigh of relief.
Ning Yue said again: "However... Although she is forced to marry, she is still getting married. If the princess takes her away like this, will her husband's family and her mother's family agree?"
"Her natal family was also forced. I have already told those people to ask their county magistrate to come and see me at the post." Princess Deqing said calmly.
"Is it the county magistrate who forced the marriage?" Ning Yue asked.
"Ok."
After lunch, Magistrate Wu arrived at the station with a team of people.
County Magistrate Wu is fifty-five years old this year, with a thin body, dark eyes, and sloppy walking steps, as if he has indulged too much, and his body is a little tired. He entered the inner hall with a smile on his face, and gave big gifts to all those seated. Everyone here, from Xuan Yin to Ning Yue, to Rong Qing and Rong Lin, is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The first meeting alone made County Magistrate Wu feel his neck was suffocated. Princess Qing, on the contrary, this one didn't make him so scared.
He smiled, and said flatteringly: "I don't know that the adults are here, and the next official is late to pick you up. I hope the adults will be considerate."
Princess Deqing said bitterly: "I think the county magistrate is busy with robbing civilian girls, so he doesn't have time to receive us envoys."
County Magistrate Wu's complexion changed, and he said with a smile: "Where is the princess, I was already ready to go out. I heard that someone bumped into the princess on the way. I called them to the yamen for interrogation. It was too late, but the princess Please rest assured, what needs to be dealt with will be taken care of by the subordinate officials!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand outside: "Bring people up!"
Several guards escorted the previous four strong men and walked in. The four were **** and knelt on the ground.
Ning Yue picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea slowly, and didn't speak.
Princess Deqing smiled lightly and said, "What is Magistrate Wu doing?"
Magistrate Wu cupped his hands and said: "They didn't know Taishan with their eyes, and they offended the princess. I specially tied them up and waited for the princess to deal with it!"
"Didn't it be your order that they ran into this princess? Magistrate Wu, do you want to tie yourself up too?"
Princess Deqing's mouth is quite a headache when she is unreasonable.
County Magistrate Wu said with a smirk: "The lower officials ordered them to invite Shi Niang back, but they didn't let them scare Shi Yi Niang away, and even made insulting remarks to the princess."
"Master, let's go around us! We don't dare again!"
"Master! We know we are wrong, you go around us!"
The four began to beg for mercy.
County Magistrate Wu said with a cold face: "The one you offended was the princess, not the official. What's the use of asking the official?"
Ning Yue got a sip of water stuck in her throat. This county magistrate is really cunning. He knew that Princess Deqing was soft-hearted, but deliberately tied people to him. Who said that he hoped to use Princess Deqing's hand to turn big things into small things?
Sure enough, the four of them knelt and walked to Princess Deqing, begging for mercy. Princess Deqing waved her hand: "Enough! I think you are the first offender and not the mastermind. Go out and get twenty boards!"
"Thank you princess!"
The four were dragged out by the servants.
Ning Yue winked at Rong Lin, Rong Lin understood and followed the group of people.
County Magistrate Wu's eyes paused on Rong Lin for two seconds, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he asked someone to bring two young and beautiful girls: "I heard that the princess has only one personal servant by her side. I specially went to the people's homes to choose two maidservants with outstanding character to give to the princess, please rest assured, the princess, they are absolutely voluntary."
