Chapter 251 There’s something good to watch now
Early the next morning.
Three carriages were lined up outside the county government office, and two rows of cavalry stood waiting on both sides.
Zheng Shixian reluctantly carried the baggage and walked out of the gate with Gu Chan and Ding Sheng.
Gu Chan said with a playful smile, "Master Zheng, how about you send someone to the refugee area to inform my fiancée and ask her to prepare some luggage for me and wait for me outside the city."
"You thought you were going to have fun and you had to prepare your luggage?" Zheng Shixian said with a livid face.
"Then it's a long way to Kyoto, and Fatty Ding and I don't have any clothes to change. Can we just wear these clothes on the way?" Gu Chan spread his hands and said.
Zheng Shixian said coldly, "How about I prepare two sets of prison uniforms for you to change into on the way?"
After saying that, he glared at Gu Chan fiercely and stepped onto the second carriage first.
"Hehehe..."
Gu Chan and Ding Sheng looked at each other and both snickered.
As long as Zheng Shixian was angry, they would feel happy. This bastard originally wanted to trick them, but now he got himself involved. It's hard to say what will happen when he goes to Kyoto!
While the two of them were secretly laughing, the censor walked out of the gate and said to them, "Get in the car and leave early so that you can arrive in Kyoto early."
"Yes, Master Yushi." Gu Chan and Ding Sheng said in unison.
Then the two of them got into the third carriage together.
The censor naturally got into the first carriage, and then the team set off, slowly driving away from the county government office and towards the city gate.
Since they didn't sleep well last night, Gu Chan and Ding Sheng fell asleep quickly after sitting in the carriage. When they woke up, it was already noon.
At this time, the carriage had already left Zhongyuan City, at least twenty miles away.
Gu Chan sat up and opened the curtains of the carriage to look outside. She found that the further they walked towards Kyoto, the more beautiful the scenery on the road became. Moreover, they were taking the official road, and there were many escorts, grain transporters, caravans and other teams coming and going on the road. .
Seeing that the team of Gu Chan and others were composed of officials, these people were smart enough to get out of the way, and no one dared to stand in the way.
Ding Sheng sat in the carriage and sighed, "Shopkeeper Gu, this time we go to Kyoto, we will never survive! But it's good, at least we can be a companion on the road to hell."
"Bah! Who wants to be your companion on the road to hell? You damn fat man. When you get to Kyoto, you'd better be smarter for me, otherwise I will definitely find a way to escape and save my life. I don't care about you." Gu Chan said coldly.
"Hmph! Once you enter Tianji Pavilion, you won't be able to run away." Ding Sheng said coldly.
Gu Chan glared at him, raised her fist and prepared to approach him.
But before Gu Chan could hit her fist, the motorcade suddenly stopped. She quickly put away her fist and stuck her head out to watch.
Ding Sheng also threw himself behind her and looked outside, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"I don't know, it seems like someone is blocking the way in front of me." Gu Chan whispered.
Then the two people immediately got off the carriage and ran forward to check the situation.
When they reached the front of the motorcade, they discovered that a middle-aged woman was kneeling in front of the motorcade to block the road. The official road was already crowded with passers-by on both sides to watch the fun.
The censor also got out of the carriage, walked up to the middle-aged woman and asked, "Where is this woman from? Why are you blocking my way?"
"Sir, the civilian woman had no choice but to block the road and file a lawsuit against the official. Please, sir, redress her grievances with me!" the middle-aged woman explained with a tearful voice. Only then did everyone present realize that she was blocking the road to file a complaint.
Gu Chan looked interested.
She had only seen this kind of drama in TV series before, where she was stopped in the middle of the road and sued the police. She never imagined that it would actually happen today.
The censor is a bit over the top!
The purpose of his coming to Zhongyuan City this time was just to take Gu Chan to Kyoto and deal with Ding Sheng. He tried his best not to interfere with all other matters to avoid trouble.
But now this middle-aged woman looks so pitiful, and there are so many people watching on both sides. It is really unreasonable for her, a dignified censor from Kyoto, not to help her.
After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, the censor suddenly had an idea and shouted, "Master Zheng, this hinterland of the Central Plains is under your jurisdiction. Now that someone is blocking the road and complaining, why don't you come out and deal with it quickly."
"Yes, Mr. Yushi, the official is here." Zheng Shixian responded with a smile.
Then like a monkey, he quickly ran to the censor and stood next to him.
Unexpectedly, when the middle-aged woman saw it was him, she immediately said sharply, "Master Yushi, the person I want to sue is Zhongyuan City Magistrate Zheng Shixian."
"Ouch! This civilian woman is so bold! She sued the magistrate of Zhongyuan City in front of the censor."
"Yes! I didn't expect that she would be so brave."
"Now there's something good to watch."
As soon as the middle-aged woman said these words, the people watching the excitement on both sides of the official road began to whisper in shock.
Gu Chan and Ding Sheng, who were standing behind to watch the excitement, also looked at each other and smiled, thinking this was quite interesting.
Originally, they all thought that the journey to Beijing would be peaceful this time. After all, with the censor's flag leading the way, whoever was short-sighted would dare to hit the muzzle of the gun.
Now that's good, wouldn't it be nice if someone sued Zheng Shixian?
Zheng Shixian was stunned in place, staring carefully at the middle-aged woman kneeling in front of him, but after looking at it for a long time, he really couldn't remember where he had offended this shabby-dressed woman, who looked like she belonged to a poor man. women.
He was puzzled and said with a puzzled look on his face, "You are a cunning woman. You are so bold. You dare to talk nonsense in front of the Royal Censor. I don't know you. You are suing me." What are you doing? Stop acting like a fool here and get out of here, otherwise I will order you to be beaten up and thrown to the side of the road."
"Wait a minute!" Gu Chan immediately shouted from behind, fearing that the world would not be in chaos.
Then she rushed forward at a trot and deliberately supported the middle-aged woman and said, "Mr. Zheng, if she wants to sue you, she has a reason for suing you. You can't let her speak, right? No matter what, you We need to let her explain the reasons clearly first, so that the Royal Censor can make a decision, don't you think so?"
"This little brother is right. How can you drive someone away without telling them clearly?"
"That's right, she is a person who blocked the official road and complained to the officials, and the person who blocked her is the current Censor. If it is not handled properly, if word gets out, she will get the reputation of officials protecting each other, which will be detrimental to the Censor."
"Mr. Zheng, I'm afraid you have a guilty conscience! Don't you dare to let her tell the truth?"
When Gu Chan said one sentence, everyone immediately cheered.
Zheng Shixian's face turned livid when he heard this, and his fists tightened so tightly that he wanted to tear Gu Chan into pieces.
He knew that Gu Chan was eager to cause him some trouble. After all, he had used the Tianji Order to secretly set a trap for Gu Chan.
Now it is only reasonable that Gu Chan would seize this opportunity to take revenge.
