Traveling back to the admiral's youth

Chapter 206 (206) Seeking justice for the little lady
Xiao Jia didn't dare to look up at the sullen Master Futai.

He lowered his head firmly, and said, "The little boss of the local ruffians has an affair with the magistrate's wife's big maid, and that person is an old acquaintance of the princess."

"Old acquaintance? Could it be that the surname is Xia?" Xia Ou rolled his eyes, and something flashed in his mind, but he couldn't catch it.

"The princess has a clever plan. The big maid did not change her name after she was sold. Her name is Xia Yu. She was sold to the south by Ren Yazi from Juren Village in Qinghe County last year. She became the wife of a bandit. After many twists and turns, she fell into the hands of the magistrate's wife... ..."

Xia Yu is the fifth eldest of the Xia family, the daughter of the Gu family, one and a half years older than her. When she was sold by the long house Qian's family last year, she dug out the silver, but was robbed by the admiral.

Unexpectedly, people who have almost forgotten can hear the news again.

What an evil fate!
"How did Xia Yu become Gao Wenfang's maid? Could it be her sister in Beijing, or what Mammy Gu said?"

"The princess is quick-witted and quick-witted, beyond our reach..."

As he said that, Xiao Jia glanced at Master Futai's condensed face, and turned straight to the main topic, saying, "It was Madam Gu who pretended to be the magistrate's elder sister Chi Gao's handwriting, and entrusted the prefect's wife to take care of Xia Yu.

But because the Chi Mansion confiscated the house, they never sent him to Yanjing, and later became a big maid. "

"Is Xia Yu a messenger this time, or is she using Gao Wenfang's name to hold a grudge against the princess and wait for an opportunity to take revenge?"

"So far only Xia Yu has been found."

"How did Gao Wenfang help Nanny Gu find Xia Yu?"

"I heard that she is one of the Mrs. Yazhai rescued from the bandits."

Ji Cheng already understood the ins and outs, and said, "Prepare the horse, pass on the word, and tell the prefect that I will visit with my wife in person."

"Yes, my lord!"

Immediately afterwards, Ji Cheng took out a thick letter from the big wooden box, and took out the letter with the word "高" written on the cover.

Xia Ou went over and saw that in addition to the Gao family's letters, there were also "road" and "gold" in the wooden box. In short, there was a whole big box stacked.

Ji Cheng re-locked the wooden box and said, "Let's go, lady!"

"Okay!" Xia Ou hurriedly followed.

She knew that the admiral was going to settle accounts with Gao Wenfang and find her a place... No, it was justice, so she was naturally very happy.

The prefect of Lu is resting and taking a bath today, and is taking a nap at the mansion.

These days are spinning around, without a moment's rest. Now that he can finally catch his breath, he doesn't even want to move a finger.

After finally getting a good night's sleep, I heard the boy come over and pass the word that Jifutai will be there soon.

Immediately, the hairs on his back stood up.

"Today... no, what happened recently? What's the big deal? Could it be that the bandits moved?"

"Master, Princess Weiyang was stopped by bandits on her way to the barracks early this morning. Fortunately, Lord Futai arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Lu Zhifu shook his head, and said, "No, it must have nothing to do with this official... Then after this, who is missing from our family!?"

"The big maid next to Madam, Xia Yu, was taken away by the Ice Army an hour ago."

In an instant, Lu Zhifu's eyes turned black.

At this moment, what he didn't understand was that Gao Wenfang must have done something behind the scenes, which caused a series of things to happen later.

Simply, life and death.

Although Na Jicheng is young, but his methods are fierce, he managed the Ice Army with one heart in just ten days without seeing it?
And the Princess Weiyang is Ji Cheng's heart, he might melt if he holds it in his mouth, and it might break if he holds it in his hand.

But for such an untouchable existence, his wife actually arranged for bandits to assassinate him?

No way, there are other purposes...

"That stupid woman... is looking for death. If she wants to die, she can die..." But he doesn't want to die!
Zhifu Lu was so angry that his hands and feet trembled, and he couldn't even walk well.

With the support of the young servant, he walked into the inner courtyard, and as soon as he reached the water pavilion, someone came to report that Mr. Futai had come.

At this moment, Prefect Lu just wanted to die first, and he would trick the corpse out later when the matter was over.

But although the dream is full, the reality is skinny...

Ji Cheng didn't let them greet him, and walked in directly, and saw that the prefect was about to "run away".

The Ice Army pulled out their long knives from their sheaths in unison, ready to wait for an opportunity to move.

Ji Cheng didn't say a word, and threw the envelope to the other party.

The prefect of Lu opened the letter with great fear and trembling.

There are Gao family who do business with substandard goods, embezzle military rations, and sell fake and bad goods to the common people, making huge profits from it.

In the past, relying on the prefect's relationship, the Gao family did a lot of dirty things like bullying men and women and running rampant.

But he didn't expect that Ji Cheng, who had just arrived, had already seized the evidence and investigated it very carefully.

Gao's family is Gao Wenfang's natal family, but it is not difficult to know how much Gao's benefited from this relationship with the magistrate, how many people, and how many families he harmed.

In this way, if the prefect of Lu protects Gao's family, let alone the matter of his making money, if he does not handle it well, he will almost be notorious and lose his black hat.

"My lord, please forgive me. I really don't know about it, and I have been kept in the dark." The prefect Lu knew too much about the seriousness of it, so he didn't even dare to quibble, and directly shirked responsibility and knelt down to beg for mercy.

Xia Ou spoke at the right time, "My princess, I want to ask your lord for an explanation!"

Ji Cheng on the side remained indifferent.

In short, no matter what Gao Wenfang said, her life must be given to him...

Therefore, this time, the magistrate of Lu admitted his mistakes with a good attitude, and offered to punish Gao Wenfang severely and abandon the Gao family, but Ji Cheng did not kill him completely.

People who have a handle, are greedy for vanity, and are afraid of death, are they easy to control, right?

Seeing that Master Futai was lenient to him, the magistrate directly pushed Gao Wenfang to the ancestral hall and knelt in front of Xia Ou.

Gao Wenfang knelt down in front of the junior, feeling ashamed.

She burst into tears and cried, "Princess, I really don't know. According to the relationship, I'm still your aunt. You should hold your hands high and let the Gao family and aunt go!"

Gao Wenfang's rhetoric is clearly unrepentant.

Moreover, her crying and fuss aroused all the anger accumulated in Lu Zhifu in recent days.

He slapped Gao Wenfang fiercely angrily, and said, "Those relatives of your Gao family who are not on the stage, are you ashamed to be relatives with the princess?"

After Gao Wenfang got married, for more than ten years, no matter how angry the magistrate Lu was, he never slapped her head mother in the face in public.

But right now she is being pinned down in the ancestral hall, and being slapped embarrassingly in front of the muddy legs and little hoofs she despises, is simply the greatest shame and humiliation in her life.

Gao Wenfang covered her hot face, looked at the magistrate Lu with teary eyes, and said, "One day husband and wife, one hundred days grace, I am your dirty wife, and you actually slapped me for an outsider?"
