After the princess was reborn, she kissed the ruthless kidnapper

Chapter 102 "Your humble servant, Lin Feng, the prefect of Yuanyang, greets the Prince Consort.

Upon hearing this, Qu Yuede raised his head covered in cold sweat in astonishment.

He kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please spare my life. I have an elderly mother at home and a…"

"You want them to come with you?"

Shen Changle threatened coldly.

Qu Yuede immediately clenched his teeth and dared not say another word.

Qu Weiliang on the other side was already scared silly.

Seeing Qu Yuede tremblingly picking up the yamen soldier's sword, he finally reacted.

He knelt on the ground, crawled over to her on his knees, and begged for mercy.

"Fairy...ah no, Your Highness, I don't know your identity, and I...my father doesn't know either. We didn't mean to offend your Highness. Your Highness, please let my father go!"

Shen Changle became even more angry after hearing this!

"Can ordinary people be oppressed at will?"

"I, that's not what I meant..."

He was so anxious that tears streamed down his face.

Qu Yuede felt distressed when he saw this.

Look back and coax him.

"Son, stop talking... You, you have to take good care of yourself and listen to your mother!"

"Dad, I don't want you to die, I don't want..."

Shen Changle thought of the arrogance that the father and son had just shown.

Seeing him crying and holding his head now, I just think it’s ridiculous!

She sneered, raised her shoulders, and looked away with disdain:

"Don't be sad. I know the deep love between you two father and son, and I will definitely help you travel together!"

He turned his head again, no longer looking at the two surprised people, and gave orders in a serious voice.

"The governor listens to the order—"

Lin Feng, who was still kneeling on the ground, lowered his head even lower and trembled.

I was afraid that this anger would spread to him who was late...

"I'm here..."

"Yuanyang County Magistrate Qu Yuede allowed his son to rebel, was unkind in his official duties, and sat on the throne without doing anything. He was ordered to be stripped of his official position, and allowed to commit suicide, with his body displayed at the city gates.

His son Qu Weiliang oppressed the people, committed treason, and plotted to murder a royal relative... Special order: he must be beaten to death on the spot!

Furthermore, all descendants of the Qu family are prohibited from taking the imperial examinations, serving as officials in the imperial court for thirty years, and setting foot in the capital for fifty years!"

This punishment is indeed severe.

But, if not, it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in Shen Changle's heart!

"I will obey the princess's order!"

Lin Feng agreed.

He straightened his upper body and waved his hand to signal his men to drag Qu Yuede and his son out of the yard.

Shen Changle turned a blind eye to Qu Yuede and Qu Weiliang's pleas for mercy.

He turned around and walked towards Jiang Ci'an who was kneeling on the ground, and carefully helped him up.

Looking at his dislocated arm, I felt heartbroken.

She lifted her long eyelashes, her eyes full of tenderness.

"to beat."

"Ah."

Jiang Ci'an responded in a deep voice.

He let Shen Changle reconnect his arm without changing his expression or saying a word.

She brushed the dust off his clothes, looked up and asked softly.

"Does it still hurt?"

Jiang Ci'an shook his head.

He held his arm and glanced at the people still kneeling on the ground.

Lin Feng saw him looking at him.

He hurriedly bent over like a servile boy.

Kneel at his feet and salute with your palms folded.

"Your humble servant, Lin Feng, the prefect of Yuanyang, greets the Prince Consort."

Jiang Ci'an narrowed his eyes, thinking that his party affiliation was unclear, and did not respond.

Turned to look at Shen Changle.

Shen Changle looked around at the villagers outside the yard.

His gaze lingered on Liu Erya for a moment.

Then he just glanced over it lightly and said:

"Everyone, get up."

"Yes, thank you, Princess."

The villagers imitated the officers and soldiers and kowtowed softly in response.

No one expected that Shen Changle would be... Her Royal Highness the Princess?

He caught a glimpse of the execution of Qu's father and son not far away, and felt extremely panicked.

They were afraid that Shen Changle and Jiang Ci'an would take revenge on them.

Huddled together and shivering.

You can see the panic among the villagers.

Shen Changle took two steps closer holding a handkerchief.

however……

Before she could say anything, Liu Erya knelt down guiltily.

She took out the silver that Qu Weiliang's servant had given her and confessed:

"Your Highness, Princess, I am greedy and blinded by greed. Please don't kill me. I am not married yet..."

The sight of her lying on the ground crying bitterly made Shen Changle couldn't help laughing.

She covered her lips with a handkerchief and chuckled.

Seeing that she had stopped talking, he said:

"Get up. Although you have made mistakes, your crime is not punishable by death. I will not kill you. Go back. Don't always fight with others in the future. Don't be easily deceived by others."

Liu Erya looked up at her in shock.

Seeing that she was not joking and her eyes were full of peace, he kowtowed and thanked her repeatedly.

"Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you, Princess."

Then he stood up and ran away quickly.

The other bribed villagers, seeing that Shen Changle was not a bloodthirsty person, also stood up one by one.

They knelt on the ground, presented all the silver and money, and begged for mercy in unison.

"I beg your Highness to forgive me."

"Well, this is just a lesson for you. Don't bully the villagers again, otherwise, I will not let you off easily!"

"Yes……"

Shen Changle glanced at the silver on the ground, and Baizhi stepped forward to pick it up.

Following Shen Changle's advice, I added some more.

"This silver will be used by me to reward those honest and grateful folks who have the courage to testify for Ci'an.

Xiulian, Liu Erge, Zhang Dasao, and Zhao Daye, each household will receive 20 taels. If there is not enough, I will make up for it myself."

When these words were spoken, Xiulian and others were deeply moved and knelt down to express their gratitude.

The other villagers also felt very sorry.

Regret why I didn't testify for Jiang Ci'an;

I was also glad that Shen Changle did not pursue the matter.

After witnessing Princess Changle's clear rewards and punishments, they left at the beckoning of the officers and soldiers.

After the villagers dispersed, the courtyard returned to its former tranquility.

Lin Feng knelt at Shen Changle's feet and asked her to move to Yuanyang.

But Shen Changle rejected him.

"No need for that. My adopted son is studying in Longnan. We will move to the town and live nearby."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng eagerly flattered him.

"Then allow me to send someone to protect Your Highness's safety to prevent what happened today from happening again."

"I haven't announced my trip to the world yet, so I don't want to publicize it too much. Therefore... I hope that Magistrate Lin will keep today's events confidential for me."

"I obey your orders."

This Li Feng is a smiling tiger, and Shen Changle can't find out his true colors.

We can only take precautions again and again!

"Also, there's a bandit named Zhu Jiuxing in the county jail. He's an old friend of mine, so I sent someone to release him."

"Yes."

Seeing that Shen Changle seemed to have finished explaining, he asked cautiously:

"Your Highness, I have something else I would like to ask Your Highness..."

"explain."

"Your Highness has dealt with Qu Yuede, so the position of county magistrate..."

Shen Changle glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally.

He immediately lowered his eyes to hide his thoughts.

Shen Changle picked up the teacup on the stone table and thought to himself.

Although the position of Yuanyang County Magistrate is only a seventh-rank official...

But if they allow him to place his own people there, the situation will be very unfavorable for them.

Previously, the message could not be sent...

Perhaps it is because Lin Feng has become the local emperor of Yuanyang!

She has to support someone of her own to muddy the waters in Yuanyang.

but……

Who to choose?

She didn't know anyone in the Yuanyang County government office...

He glanced at Jiang Ci'an, but felt something was wrong.

Not to mention that she was going to take him back to Beijing, even without considering his afterlife...

She also promised her uncle that she would not help him achieve his career as a princess.

that……

In times of trouble.

Jiang Ci'an, who was sitting next to her, wrote a name on the table with tea.

She looked up at him, and they both understood each other and smiled knowingly.

Then he put down the teacup and spoke softly.

"Until the emperor issues his orders, the chief clerk in charge of household registration can temporarily take over the position of county magistrate."

Lin Feng, with his head lowered, was stunned.

In the end, I could only nod in agreement.

"Your Excellency, as you command..."
