Chapter 482: What does it really feel like to be an official?
"Your humble servant greets Master Su."
"Your Excellency the Prefect has arrived just in time. Please tell me, Master, is this Dongshi Prefecture now the domain of your Shi family?"
"I dare not. Master Taifu, please forgive my sister. She is still young."
"Oh, she's young? She hasn't even been weaned yet? You fell in love with my husband without asking why, and you want him? You want me to divorce my husband."
With every word Su Yueyao spoke, the faces of Shi Xiaozhifu and Shi Xiaonujun turned paler.
"This Taifu is here to introduce my husband to you. This one is the eldest prince, the eldest son of His Majesty, and the commoner who was personally granted marriage by His Majesty. Lady Shi wants him? And you want me to divorce him? Will your Shi family bear the charge of disobeying His Majesty's order?"
"I... don't want to." Shi Xiaonvjun was so scared that she kept shaking her head.
"And this deputy commander of the Imperial Guards, my Grand Tutor's concubine, the next head of the Fengdu Cui family, will lead the Fengdu Imperial Guards in the future. Our marriage was also granted by His Majesty's decree."
"These two are the servants that this Grand Tutor has chosen from the noble families of Fengdu after he set a task for them in Fengdu. They are the Patrol Censor Pu and the Chief Censor Gongyang. This time, they have also received the order from His Majesty to be the special envoys to go to the Kingdom of Dongli with this Grand Tutor."
"Lady Shi, which of these four do you think you can afford? Or is your Shi family now high-ranking enough to compete with His Majesty? Do you disregard etiquette and laws? Do you stop a man on the street and force him in front of a woman? I see that you are so skilled, you would never do such a thing?" Su Yueyao said coldly.
"I know I was wrong. I didn't do it. I didn't do it. I won't dare to do it again. Master Tutor, please forgive me." Shi Xiaonvjun was so scared that she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
The moment she knelt down, everyone avoided her kneeling except Su Yueyao.
"Master Su, your mother will teach her strictly when she returns and will ensure that she does not make mistakes again." After Prefect Shi finished speaking, three women suddenly broke into the crowd and knelt down in front of Su Yueyao.
"Master Taifu, please help us. Shi Yan abducted my master and caused him to commit suicide because he could not bear the humiliation."
"Master Taifu, this Shi Yan forcibly abducted my biological brother and tortured him to death. Please make the decision."
"Master Taifu, I want to sue Shi Yan for oppressing the people. I just glanced at her unintentionally, so she whipped me. My husband was beaten all over to protect me. Afterwards, she even refused to allow the pharmacy to treat us. My husband died."
"You are talking nonsense, I didn't do it, you are slandering me." Shi Xiaonvjun stood up and pointed at them.
"Also, I am the prefect's sister. I want your husband and your brother. It would be your honor if I beat you."
"Shut up, Master Taifu, my sister is just very angry." After yelling, the young governor Shi bowed and said to Su Yueyao.
"Do you believe what you said? I think the victims are not just these three women, right? I am the Grand Tutor appointed by His Majesty personally as the Grand Tutor of the Princess. I will lead all officials in the future. His Majesty also granted me the power to supervise all officials. I will thoroughly investigate what you and your sister did, Shi Xiaozhifu."
"Come here, arrest the young governor Shi and the young lady Shi, and put them in jail."
"Deputy Commander Cui sent the imperial guards to surround the government office. All of Prefect Shi's men have been taken away. If the people of Dongshi Prefecture have any grievances, they can go to the government office to report the case. This matter has been handed over to Lord Pu and Lord Gongyang." Su Yueyao gave the order directly.
"Your Majesty, the Grand Master's order."
Suddenly, all of Shi Xiaozhifu's people, both in the dark and in the open, were controlled by Su Yueyao's people.
"I am the prefect. Master Su cannot detain me without an imperial decree." Prefect Shi Xiao struggled and shouted.
But the people around him looked at him numbly, and some even threw vegetable leaves at him.
"Thank you, Grand Tutor, for standing up for us." All the people knelt down immediately.
Su Yueyao looked at the people kneeling on the ground and had an indescribable feeling in her heart. Perhaps this was the feeling of being loved and being a true official?
"Everyone, please stand up. This is what I should do as I was ordered by Your Majesty."
The common people stood up with gratitude on their faces, but Shi Xiaonujun was lying on the ground and didn't want to get up. The imperial guards were not allowed to touch women at will, so they felt a little embarrassed.
"I am a woman, you are not allowed to touch me, I don't want to go to jail, I don't want to go."
"I'll do it." The woman who had just complained ran up to Shi Xiaonvjun and slapped her in the face, saying, "I told you not to steal my master, and I told you not to humiliate him."
The other two women reacted and also stepped forward to fight.
Su Yueyao felt much better when she saw Shi Xiaonvjun being beaten. She felt that the slap she just gave was too light. These three women were pretty good and they pleased her very much!
"Ah! Stop hitting me, stop hitting me." Shi Xiaonvjun said while trying her best to hide.
Shi Xiaozhifu, who was being held at the side, wanted to rescue them, but the imperial guards held him tightly.
Finally, Su Yueyao saw Shi Xiaonvjun lying on the ground after being beaten, and said directly to the three people: "Okay, stop it."
When the three women heard Su Yueyao's words, they stopped and stood aside.
Afterwards, the two imperial guards carried the man away, and the people in the middle threw vegetable leaves at them.
Su Yueyao had no desire to continue shopping and prepared to go back.
"Farewell, Lord Su."
After returning to the mansion, everyone except the eldest prince went to do things according to Su Yueyao's instructions.
"I didn't expect the Shi family to be so bold. If I hadn't happened to pass by here, this place would have been controlled by the Shi family in a month."
"I can only say that the Shi family is unlucky! I am unlucky too. I just wanted to rest here for one night and then continue on my journey. It seems that I have to stay here for one more day."
"But my wife protected the people here."
"Yes, I want to go to sleep for a while. Your Highness, can you accompany me?" Su Yueyao said as she stretched.
"it is good."
The two of them returned to the bedroom together, took off their outer clothes, and went straight to the bed.
Su Yueyao lay in the eldest prince's arms and slowly closed her eyes. After Su Yueyao fell completely asleep, the eldest prince kissed Su Yueyao on the forehead, gently pulled her arm away, and slowly got out of bed.
He put on his coat, walked out of the room, and looked at Qingyu and Qingran at the door.
"You two stay with the lady. If anything happens, send someone to the front hall to find me."
"promise."
At this time, the butler appeared at the door, saluted to the eldest prince and said.
"Your Highness, all the heads of the noble families in Dongshi Mansion have come and are standing at the gate of the mansion. Would Your Highness like to see them?"
"How many people are there?" the eldest prince asked calmly.
"There are about ten people. Some of the smaller families are probably waiting to see and pay a visit."
"Arrange them to come to the reception room so I can meet them. For the other families who are coming tomorrow, tell them to report their grievances directly to the government office."
"I know."
"Butler, tell me which families these people who came today belong to."
"Yes, Your Highness." The butler signaled the people following him to go to the gate of the mansion to invite the heads of the noble families to the reception room, and he followed the eldest prince to the reception room.
