Chapter 228 - Scouting Lord Micro-Visit

"What?" You are Lord Pu? " Yun Qin found it hard to believe, she never expected them to be so lucky as to meet the patrolling Lord. She blinked, still in disbelief. "But I heard that the Pu Lord is not in Jing Prefecture?"

"A private interview." Pu Sheng said.

Yun Qin was unable to hide her surprise, her luck was just too good, she was able to chance upon Pu Lord.

Qing Yao realized in the next moment: "So you're the patrolling Lord? The one older than the Prefect? "

"Yes." Pu Sheng answered, thinking, if what they said was true, he would definitely punish Jiang Li, and if the emperor handed the Jiangzhou over to him for jurisdiction, he should be able to handle things properly for the imperial family, but he did not expect him to be so perfunctory, and humiliate himself like this.

"Ah, then can you teach that dog officer a lesson?" Qing Yao's eyes lit up, a little expecting what would happen to dog officer.

"If it's true, then I will handle it impartially." Pu Sheng opened his mouth, but there was nothing that could stop him from coming for the proof. If there was not enough evidence, even if he came, it would be useless.

"I wonder if you guys have any concrete evidence to prove that Yue Xin is murderer?" Pu Sheng asked, his eyes flashing with wisdom.

"There is no evidence right now. Due to the Chiang, the progress of the matter was hindered, but with your help, it should be much easier now." Yun Qin replied. With a patrolling officer, they could pass by the Chiang, she could tell that this Lord was indeed very reliable, and knew with one look that he was not someone that the Chiang could compare to.

"Yes, I will take over this case, you can rest assured." Pu Sheng promised.

At this time, the coachman outside the door reminded him, "We've arrived at the inn."

Pu Sheng got off the car, and said softly: "Why don't you all wait for me in the car? I'll take the silver, and will follow you to County Yamen."

Hearing that, Qing Yao opened her eyes, was she going to County Yamen to run a dog officer? She nodded happily.

Pu Sheng turned around and entered the inn. After he went upstairs, the moment he arrived outside the room, he saw his subordinate, Qi Feng, standing at the entrance.

Qi Feng, with the sword in his hand, saw that Pu Sheng had returned and anxiously walked in front of him. "Lord, where did you go alone?"

"Didn't I tell you not to look for me? I wandered around Jiangzhou Street and worried blindly." Pu Sheng laughed helplessly. He couldn't wait to follow him every single day as a subordinate, afraid that he wouldn't be able to find his way back.

"Madam has instructed me to protect you well." Qi Feng said.

"Why don't you just go back and tell her to stay close to me?" Pu Sheng shook his head, and said while opening the door, "I will not expose you."

"How can that be?" He couldn't say that he was lying to his wife.

Entering the room, Pu Sheng picked up his luggage and said solemnly: "Follow me to County Yamen."

After exiting the inn, Pu Sheng got into the carriage, and Qi Feng followed the coachman.

Pu Sheng opened his bag and took out a purple jade pendant.

Yun Qin and Qing Yao were shocked, they had never seen such a gentle purple jade before, Yun Qin took it and looked at it, only to see that the jade was extremely warm and did not contain any impurities, it felt cool and icy to the touch, the feeling was extremely good, probably just the jade itself was already valuable.

As the proverb goes, a good relationship with the officials was still very important. If there were places that they needed help in the future, they might even need the help of the patrolling Lord.

Yun Qin muttered to herself: "Lord, I think that this piece of jade is more than 3,700 taels, it suits my needs. Since that's the case, I will not take your money anymore." She gave the collar to Pu Sheng.

Pu Sheng laughed, and said: Thank you, miss. Oh yes, may I ask what your names are?

"My name is Yun Qin."

"Qing Yao."

Pu Sheng nodded his head, "Miss Yun has a good eye, you must have done quite a bit of research on antiques, right?"

"This is not a good idea. In the palace... The more you see, the more you get to know each other. " Yun Qin laughed and almost brought up the palace. She shifted the topic to Pu Sheng, "I saw that Lord Pu was very generous, the jade on me, the purple jade on it, and the necklace that you took a fancy to, I think Lord Pu must have done a lot of research on this, right?"

"Hahaha, just a hobby when I'm free." Pu Sheng laughed. When he came out, he specially brought a lot of silver, to see if he could buy some things from the antiques shop or the pawnshop. That was why his wife was worried and made her attendants follow closely behind him.

Yun Qin and Qing Yao followed behind Pu Sheng and entered the County Yamen.

Constable Feng saw Pu Sheng and went forward to bow, "Lord Pu."

"Tell Chiang to come see me." Pu Sheng spoke with a little more dignity, as if he was missing some of the easygoing attitude he had in the carriage earlier.

Arriving at the main hall, Pu Sheng asked Yun Qin and Yun Qin to sit down for a while. After half an incense worth of time, Jiang Chang Zai was slowly rushed over with the help of someone else, he knelt down and bowed to Pu Sheng: "This official does not know that Lord is here, I am sorry to greet you."

When Qing Yao and Yun Qin saw his strange posture, they knew that the rod wound from a few days ago had not healed yet.

However, Pu Sheng did not know why, but looking at him walking in a crooked manner, he said: "How is your appearance right now?!"

"This official knows his wrongs, this official knows his wrongs." As the Chiang spoke, he lifted and supported his hat and sighed in his heart. What kind of wind was it that it actually brought the Patrol Officer over?

"This official heard that you were not an official, so many people died in succession in the Jiangzhou. Is that true? " Pu Sheng asked.

Chiang's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He thought that this matter might have gotten to his ears, so he kowtowed twice: "Lord, this official is wrongly accused."

"Unjustly accused? Could it be that the matter regarding human life is fake? "

"Lord, they … They've all fallen into the water by mistake! " He thought that since he had just come to Jiangzhou, he should not be clear about it. Even if he panicked, how would he know if it was true or false?

Pu Sheng slapped the table, "You're still trying to argue! "Someone has already exposed your crime to me. You'd better bring the whole matter back from the inside out. Otherwise, I'll find out for myself, you just have to wait for Wu Sha to kill you."

"Please spare my life Lord, this … This was purely a rumor created by someone! "Ask Constable Feng if you don't believe me." The Chiang gave Constable Feng a meaningful glance.

Constable Feng was helpless. He nodded, but neither could he. At this time, Qing Yao spoke up from the side: "Don't even think about having Constable Feng cover up your crimes. It seems that the punishment from a few days ago still isn't enough?"

Chiang looked over when he heard the commotion and saw that it was the two nosy aunts who had been rendered speechless for a moment.

Seeing him choke up, Pu Sheng knew that he was guilty, and said: "As a prefect, you do not work for the people, and spend your days thinking that it is ridiculous, truly like a father and mother official."

"Lord, this official knows his wrongs. This official really doesn't know how to handle this case." Chiang said, "This official has already sent people to investigate, we will wait until the truth is revealed, then report this to the patrolling Lord."
