Chapter 424: Returning to the City (1)
Sure enough, the Emperor of Western Yue was furious again when he heard this, and he was dizzy about cursing the princes. As for the prefect of the capital, if it weren't for the need for him, he would be afraid that he would have been in the prison now.
"I heard yesterday that the prefect is not awake yet? Are you awake now?" Rong Jin narrowed his eyes, and his handsome face was filled with dangerous ice flames.
"Wake up...I'm awake...I'm sorry for your crime..."
Rong Jin sneered, "I see you haven't woken up yet! I said yesterday that if you haven't arrived for an hour, I will personally sober up your wine. Now... it's still time."
After saying that, before the prefect's rebuttal was made, Rong Jin had already pulled out a whip and swung it towards the prefect's body. Rong Huai's face next to him darkened. He clearly saw that the whip was exactly the one that Rong Jin whipped him a few days ago. His face was slightly darker, and he took a step forward and wanted to speak.
Beside him, Rong Xuan and Rong Yan grabbed Rong Huai from left to right. Rong Yan said lightly: "This dog is really supposed to be beaten, Huai'er should not care about him." Concealing is concealment, but completely ignoring it is another matter. If this matter is handled secretly, even if the father knows it later, he will not say much. It is because of this bastard that he pretended that it had never happened. Don't he know that it can't be kept in the fire? Who would such a person beat him if he doesn't?
Rong Huai gritted his teeth and said, "He would be too arrogant when he beats the important officials of the court."
Rong Xuan said lightly: "What kind of important minister is a mere prefect? He will beat him."
Rong Huai gritted his teeth. In fact, he was not favoring the prefect. The prefect was not his person, and he didn't care about his business if he wanted to beat and kill. However, when he saw the person who was rolling all over the ground by Rong Jin with a whip, Rong Huai felt extremely uncomfortable. It seemed that the person who was rolling on the ground was not the prefect of the capital but himself.
"Your Highness, please spare me!" On the street full of ice and snow, the prefect who was originally a high-sounding prefect was now a mess. Rong Jin's whip was very good, and even without martial arts, it was still dense and everywhere. No matter where he hid, he could not escape the long whip like a poisonous snake.
The stinging pain was still felt even through the thick brocade clothes. The prefect had no other way to think of except wailing, "Prince, please spare your life... Your Highness, King Qin, help... Your Highness, King Zhuang, Your Highness, Lord Duan, save the little minister, I know I'm wrong..."
When he felt that Rong Jin was almost angry and smiled, Rong Xuan said, "Ninth brother, that's enough. Give him a life."
Rong Jin had no intention of beating the person to death, so he snorted coldly and finally stopped the whip. He kicked the person away and said, "Give me a face to give me a second brother. Next time I will let me encounter such a waste who doesn't know what I should do, I will directly kill him."
The prefect kneeled on the ground, trembling and did not dare to move, "It's... the little minister knew his mistake. Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness."
Rong Jin looked at the whip in his hand with some disgust and threw it on the snow-white ground. A scarlet color was immediately dyed on the snow-white ground. This time, the whipping of this prefect is not the same as the last time when Rong Huai was beaten. The last time, even if he had no internal strength, Rong Jin was still merciless. At this time, the brocade romance on the prefect kneeling on the ground had already been torn apart by the barbs on the whip. The dark red brocade romance was covered with blood in many places, and it was obviously very injured.
But at this time, he knelt in front of Rong Jin. Even though he was so painful that he still didn't dare to move. Who knew that King Yu was a famous devil king inside and outside the imperial city. Even if Rong Jin pulled him to death here on the spot today, he would probably be just a few words from the Emperor of Western Yue when he went back, and he would not even have any punishment. He would die in vain if he died.
Rong Huai next to him couldn't see it and sneered: "The king of Yu is so majestic. He beat the imperial officials on the spot in front of the love of the emperor and grandfather. I don't know who gave you the rights."
Rong Jin raised his eyebrows and glanced at her sideways, sneering: "Didn't you say that? I rely on my father's favor, so it is naturally a right given by my father. Do you have any objections?"
A hint of anger flashed in Rong Huai's eyes. He wanted to speak but was suppressed by Rong Yan next to him. Mu Qingyi also walked out next to Rong Jin and said lightly: "Prince, it's not advisable for public public. Let's go back and talk."
Rong Jin snorted lightly and ignored Rong Huai again.
Rong Xuan said curiously: "It seems that there are seven or eight out of ten people in this town. Where did the ninth brother live last night?" Mu Qingyi looked at the prefect who was following Rong Huai with a smile and said: "This... I want to thank the prefect. Chen Yuanwai in this town is just the Taishan of the prefect. The prince and I stayed in the Chen Mansion for a night last night, and asked Chen Yuanwai to buy a lot of food to provide disaster relief. The princes should remember to return this money to the Prince Yu Mansion. Otherwise... what kind of thing we princes want to buy might be short of money."
The prefect who was staring at Mu Qingyi couldn't help but shudder. He didn't expect that this young man in white like a fairy child around King Yu would have such a pair of condensed eyes. His eyes were even more indifferent and ruthless than King Yu who was furious.
"No... I dare not, the young master is joking." The prefect said tremblingly. Although he is an official and Gu Liuyun is a civilian, the people around His Highness, let alone the general manager, he can't afford to offend even an ordinary servant now.
Mu Qingyi laughed and said, "How could he joke? Yesterday, Mr. Chen generously sold all the food to me and the prince. One liter of rice costs twenty cents... Mr. Chen is very good at doing business, no wonder he could build such a gorgeous mansion." As he spoke, the group had already arrived at the door of Chen's mansion. It was indeed a very good mansion, which was no different from the mansions of some officials and wealthy businessmen in the capital.
Rong Yan looked at Mu Qingyi and smiled and said, "Don't worry, the imperial court will definitely return all the silver you spent on buying food. I would like to thank General Gu and Ninth Brother for what they did for these people."
Mu Qingyi smiled and said, "The King Duan has been awarded too much, but it is just for what he deserves."
Looking at the faint smile of the boy in white in front of him, Rong Yan couldn't help but shine. The boy in front of him was certainly handsome, but this indifferent temperament was even more rare. More importantly, the boy's conversation, intelligence, and compassion and compassion for the people that could be seen clearly in his eyes. If he could be taken over to his command, the boy would definitely have great potential in his time.
It's just a pity... it's a step late. Rong Yan secretly felt sorry in his heart.
After entering Chen's mansion and sitting down, Mu Qingyi ordered someone to invite Chen Yuanwai over.
"Sir... Sir, you have to make the decision for the nickname!" Chen Yuanwai rushed in and shouted at the prefect without even looking.
After seeing clearly the messy blood and pale faces of the prefects, they couldn't help but be stunned. Rong Xuan and Rong Yan sat in the main seat at the top of the hall, and Rong Huai and Rong Jin sat in the left and right seats below. There was the young man in white who locked up their whole family next to Rong Jin. However, his son-in-law, the prefects of the capital, stood in the hall with trembling fear, without even sitting down.
