This Woman Is Venomous; She Can’t Be Spared
Zhao Jie was a little doubtful for a moment, and asked strangely: “How did Supervisor Zhang and Lord Lin conceal the Imperial Court’s supplies? Also, who are these people of unknown identity?”
Zhou Shiwen heard this and immediately said respectfully: “Lord Lu, Lord Zhao, please stand up for This Official.
This Woman doesn’t know where she came from, bringing a lot of supplies. Because of Supervisor Zhang and Lin Yanan’s shielding, she mixed into Qingnan. Along the way, she avoided the inspection of the Soldiers at the City Gate, and even tried to deceive This Official.
The origin of those supplies is unknown, and there may be a Problem. This Official is afraid that This Woman will be detrimental to the Common People of Qingnan, so he ordered people to arrest her.
But who would have thought that This Woman would take My Son as a hostage? Such a ruthless and unknown person must be locked in Prison.”
After saying that, he also reached out and wiped the corners of his eyes, with a heartbroken Appearance.
Zhao Jie was so shocked by these words that he was dizzy. Just as he was about to fly into a rage, he heard Lu Cijian say lightly: “Jiang Girl is the Shopkeeper of Bao Xiang Shop. The reason why she came with Supervisor Zhang this time is only for the Common People of Qingnan, and there is no other Purpose.”
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Shiwen widened his eyes in disbelief and said angrily: “Adult, This Woman must have a Problem. Adult, you must be careful.
So what if she is the Shopkeeper of Bao Xiang Shop? It is really suspicious to follow the team transporting supplies from the Capital without permission.
Moreover, she also injured My Son. My Son is now unconscious and doesn’t know if he is dead or alive. This person must not be kept.”
He really didn’t expect that Lu Cijian knew This Woman.
He originally wanted to make a false accusation first, directly lock This Woman and Supervisor Zhang’s party into Prison, and then find a chance to kill them.
Unexpectedly, Lu Cijian directly revealed the other party’s Identity.
If This Woman stays, the Chu Prince’s supplies can never be transported away.
He still can’t make it clear that these supplies belong to the Chu Prince.
Thinking of this, he hated it so much that his teeth itched, and he hurriedly continued: “Adult, This Woman is vicious and intends to do something Sinister to My Son. She really can’t be kept. Please, Adult, stand up for This Official.”
Lu Cijian glanced at the person on the ground and said lightly: “This Official thinks that the wounds on Your Son’s body have nothing to do with This Girl.”
Zhou Shiwen choked, looked at the several large and small Wounds on Zhou Ling’s body, all of which were injured by Plum Blossom Hidden Weapon, and only felt distressed, but still stubbornly said: “How can it be unrelated to This Woman? If This Woman hadn’t used My Son to block the Hidden Weapons, how could My Son have become like this?”
Jiang Yimian just smiled, “Adult, these words of yours really make me panic. It is clear that Adult indiscriminately attacked our party.
I have given Explanation several times, but even if Adult doesn’t believe it, he still wants to put us to death. If Adult hadn’t been too cruel and ruthless, how could Your Son have become like this.
I see that Your Son still has a breath left. If Adult doesn’t ask a Doctor to treat Your Son, Your Son is afraid that he will really be beyond help.”
Jiang Yimian had a smile on her face, and the words she spoke seemed to be considering Zhou Shiwen.
But in Zhou Shiwen’s ears, it inexplicably carried a hint of Ridicule and triumph, which only made him angry.
But he also knew that Jiang Yimian was right, so he quickly ordered the people beside him to invite a Doctor, and looked at Lu Cijian and said, “Lord Lu, don’t you believe what This Official said?
The origin of This Woman’s supplies is unknown, and there may be a Problem. I don’t know what her Purpose is. Adult, don’t Shield her just because you know her.
Now the Common People of Qingnan are in deep water, and cannot tolerate the slightest mistake.”
His words were sonorous and powerful, and those who didn’t know it would have thought he was really worried about the Common People of Qingnan.
Jiang Yimian only smiled and said: “Why does Adult suspect the supplies I brought so much? I am the Shopkeeper of Bao Xiang Shop, and the supplies naturally come from Bao Xiang Shop.
Is there any Law in Great Jin that says shops cannot Donate supplies?
If Adult insists on convicting me for this, then wouldn’t all the kind-hearted Merchants and Officials in the Capital have committed a crime?
As for being vicious, Adult is really wronging me. Since I came to the Yamen, I wanted to see Adult to discuss the matter of rescuing the Common People of Qingnan.
But Adult avoided seeing me, and today, without any Evidence, he wanted to arrest the woman and her Companion and put them in Prison, and put a Hat of Sinister intentions on us.
Adult’s words are too arbitrary, right? Or does Adult have any Evidence to prove that there is a Problem with the supplies I brought?”
Zhou Shiwen only said with gritted teeth: “If you really only came to Donate supplies, why didn’t you directly Donate the supplies to the Lin Family and have the Censorate escort the supplies to Qingnan? Why did you have to come in person, and bring so many powerful Guards?
If you are not plotting something, why would it be so troublesome?”
It is clear that these supplies belong to the Chu Prince, but This Woman dares to say that they belong to Bao Xiang Shop. She is really shameless.
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Jie quickly denied: “Lord Zhou’s words are a bit wrong. There is no Law in Great Jin that prohibits Merchants from Donating supplies, and there is naturally no Law that stipulates that Merchants cannot personally come to the disaster area to deliver supplies.
If this is a crime, Lord Zhou must first convict the Chu Prince.
As for bringing so many powerful Guards, that is inevitable. Even the Censorate will have Soldiers accompanying them when escorting supplies to prevent someone from robbing them.
What’s the Problem with bringing Guards to protect yourself and the safety of the Supplies?
Moreover, since This Girl knows Lord Lu and came with Supervisor Zhang and his party, there is naturally no Problem.
Even if there is a Problem, Lord Lu will guarantee it. Does Lord Zhou have any Evidence that we don’t know about that can prove that there is a Problem with the supplies This Girl brought?”
These words were clear and understandable, which made everyone nod secretly.
Those from the Censorate and the Ministry of Works who had originally suspected Jiang Yimian’s motives were pure, felt that it made sense, and had already given Jiang Yimian a title of Kind-hearted in their hearts.
Zhou Shiwen was angry and glared at Jiang Yimian for a long time without saying a word.
The Chu Prince secretly sent him a message saying that the supplies were robbed, and that a Woman led a team to rob them, asking him to pay attention to searching for them in Qingnan.
It just so happened that he heard Assistant Prefect Chen mention that this time the supplies were more than before. He immediately felt that something was wrong and asked Assistant Prefect Chen to look through the Official Document at Supervisor Zhang’s place to confirm that the supplies This Woman brought were robbed from the Chu Prince.
But how could he say these words.
After a while, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said: “This Official took it for granted. This Official is just worried about Problems with the Common People of Qingnan.
Now Qingnan is suffering from a serious Flood, and the Common People have already suffered a lot. This Official doesn’t want the Common People to suffer again because of supplies of unknown origin. That’s why I did such a thing in a moment of desperation. I hope Lord Lu will forgive me.”
Lu Cijian only said lightly: “Adult should say these words to Jiang Girl. She almost lost her Life because of your momentary impulsiveness.
Since Lord Zhou is prone to acting impulsively, This Official will take over the affairs of Qingnan, and you will assist from the side.”
Zhou Shiwen’s eyes twitched in anger, and he remained silent for a long time, clenching his hands so tightly that he couldn’t wait to strangle the people in front of him.
