Chapter 472: Beating up Zuo Shilang
"The county princess is really full of vigor and vitality!" The Left Assistant Minister said sarcastically.
Jiang An also said in a yin-yang way: "Not as good as Zuo Shilang..."
“What a majestic presence!”
"Hmph..." The Left Assistant Minister brushed his wide sleeves and put on a posture, "The county lady may not have figured it out yet. This officialdom is not the barbaric land of the north. It's not enough to just have a strong fist. Everything must follow the rules."
"Take the table that the county lady smashed, for example. It's a century-old pear tree, and it's registered with the Ministry of Industry. If it's damaged, you have to pay for it."
"Also, the county lady is here to take up her post at the Ministry of Justice today. Do you have your documents and official robes? Have you thanked the Prime Minister?"
"If not, I'm afraid that the Ministry of Justice will not accept your transfer as the Right Vice Minister!"
After saying this, he glanced at the doctor and the deputy doctor beside Jiang An, and the threat was evident in his words.
The little girl put her hands behind her back and silently loosened her wrists.
She said, coming to the Ministry of Justice today must be quite strenuous...
Originally, she just wanted to scare him, but the Left Assistant Minister actually told her to go and pay her respects to that old man!
How many heads does he have?
In the busy hall of the Ministry of Justice, Jiang An, dressed in black, was seen standing in the candlelight, with a cold smile on his delicate face.
She said frankly: "What the Left Assistant Minister said, this county lady did not do anything."
"But I have always believed in one thing..."
The little girl showed her fist that had just broken the table, her eyes lively, "First, your father is not as good as my father."
"Second, you're not as good as me!"
Before the last word of the sentence fell, the little girl moved so fast that only a dark shadow remained...
Doctor Zhao followed the girl's movements and did not see anything clearly. He only saw Assistant Minister Zuo flying backwards and successfully knocking down several doors.
"hiss…"
I don't know who made the teeth-grinding sound, which gave goosebumps to everyone present.
"So much nonsense!" Jiang An muttered angrily and shook his hands.
“Pfft…Pooh!”
Amidst a pile of sawdust and rubbish, Minister Zuo stretched out his left hand tremblingly, "I want to file a complaint..."
"I'm going to file a complaint with the emperor!"
"Go, go, go~"
Jiang An waved his hands nonchalantly, "The emperor is my uncle, what is he to you?"
I can trace a network of relationships from top to bottom in this imperial city, so who do you think you are?
"you…!"
Minister Zuo struggled to raise his head, which was still bleeding. It was unclear whether he had internal injuries or was simply angry, but his eyes were bloodshot.
Jiang An raised his eyebrows and asked provocatively: "What? Still want to come?"
She walked forward slowly, and none of the officials in the room dared to step forward to stop her.
They were afraid that this ancestor would really beat someone to death, and they were even more afraid that they would be the ones beaten to death!
He doesn't look like someone who is easy to mess with, so they are crazy and are moving closer to him.
I would rather die than die with my friend, rest in peace, Zuo Shilang~
"You...you don't come over here..."
The Left Assistant Minister could not feel anything below his neck, but he still relied on his two hands to crawl out, trying to escape.
It was as embarrassing as it could be.
"Where are you going, Minister?"
The little girl slowly grabbed one of the man's legs and dragged him to a crowded place effortlessly.
Zuo Shilang: “Ahhh…”
"You said you are also... why bother~"
Jiang An muttered slowly, "This county lady is here today just to introduce herself to the sect. You can just follow the procedures honestly. Why make such a fuss?"
In terms of manpower, the Jinwei of the Dali Temple is much stronger than those good-for-nothings in the Ministry of Justice, and she has so many personal soldiers under her command...
The little girl threw the man onto the chair and smiled sweetly, "Now we have met each other. I hope you can give me more advice in the future."
"Oh, right…"
Jiang An seemed to have just remembered, "I hope that next time we meet, Minister Zuo can remember to salute this county lady, so that this county lady doesn't have to teach you personally."
"And..."
The girl shook the jade pendant bestowed by His Majesty in her hand, smiling brightly, "Although this county lady does not have an official robe, I have His Majesty's special permission. Don't forget to make it clear when the Left Assistant Minister complains."
"We are all colleagues. When we search your house, we will leave you a pair of pants~"
With the jade pendant in hand, it feels like His Majesty is here in person.
Look at his arrogant attitude just now...
When you have time, Minister Zuo should count how many heads you have.
But at this moment, he couldn't respond to Jiang An's words.
This person had already fainted from fright.
The moment everyone saw the dragon-carved jade pendant, they were all shocked.
All I heard was the sound of people kneeling in unison in the hall.
Jiang An looked up and felt bored...
"Where is the Shangshu? Take me over to see him."
Doctor Zhao half-prostrated himself, "Sir, please come this way..."
After Jiang An left, it took a long while before the sound of someone breathing heavily was heard in the hall.
The officials of the Ministry of Justice were puzzled for a moment when they saw the unconscious Zuo Shilang.
Do you think this man should be sent back home or put directly in jail?
After all, he was offending the emperor's majesty...
But...the Left Assistant Minister is under the command of Prime Minister Xie!
"How about we stay here for a while?"
Someone suggested, "Since there is still the Right Assistant Minister in the Ministry of Justice, it won't be too late to make a decision after he comes out."
He shouldn't die in a short while.
"Makes sense!"
There were a few sporadic voices in response, but in the blink of an eye, everyone in the hall had dispersed.
"This is where the Shangshu handles official business..."
Doctor Zhao pointed to the little girl earnestly, "The place across the street is where the former Right Assistant Minister handled official business. If you have any dissatisfaction, please let me know. I will handle it immediately!"
Just don't hit me.
"Thank you very much~"
Adhering to the civilized thinking, Jiang An knocked on the door first.
No one answered?
Doctor Zhao shouldn't lie to me.
Thinking of this, Jiang An pushed the door gently and it creaked open.
The furnishings here are simple, and it looks a bit like a study room...
Behind the table in the middle, a middle-aged man in an official robe was sleeping and snoring loudly.
The little girl stepped over the threshold with one foot and her brows moved slightly.
How can he sleep when it's so noisy outside?
"Minister Li...?"
No movement...
Jiang An came closer, his voice getting louder, "Minister Li!"
“Hey…Hey!”
The sleeping man suddenly woke up, subconsciously sucked his saliva, and wiped it with his hand without leaving any trace.
The little girl saw that he didn't look faking sleepy, and thought to herself: This guy is really just like Wu Heting said.
"I am the Right Vice Minister who has come to take up the post, and I have come to see the Minister."
"Hey, the county lady!"
Li Shangshu looked a little more enthusiastic and asked everyone to sit down.
He wanted to pour a cup of tea for the little girl, but he didn't expect that the charcoal fire had gone out at some point and the water in the stove had already gone cold.
Li Shangshu looked embarrassed and said, "Look, County Lady... I didn't prepare in advance. How rude."
Jiang An: "It's okay. The main reason I came here today is to get the token and personnel from the Ministry of Justice. After all... the case that His Majesty entrusted to me is important."
“Exactly…exactly!”
"Someone, please invite Minister Zuo to come!"
Minister Li said, "You may not know this, but this Zuo Shilang is a capable person. He is in charge of all matters in the Ministry of Justice. You can talk to him about the token and manpower."
"That's it..."
The girl turned her head to look at the clerk at the door, then turned to Li Shangshu with a bright smile and said, "But I'm afraid that the Left Assistant Minister won't be able to take up his post recently."
