Hearing the dissatisfaction in Xiaoman's tone, Jiang Hu immediately knelt down: "No..."
"Shut up, Jiang Hu. This county lady is very disappointed in you now. It is because you are so kind to them that they misunderstood. Well, since you are also the vice president and will continue to manage the Supervisory Committee in the future, I will listen to you this time. Just kick these people out of the Supervisory Committee."
"You are good and lucky. My disciple has personally spoken for you and pleaded for you. I will spare your lives. Let's go."
Thirty people looked at each other, not knowing what to say, and could only turn around and leave the Supervisory Committee. The others didn't dare to say a word, otherwise they would probably be killed on the spot by the county lord.
Everyone also understood that the reason why the president ignored the Supervisory Committee after giving birth to the child was that she simply did not take the Supervisory Committee seriously.
When they thought of this, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. After all, how could someone who could directly massacre two cities care about the lives of people like them? In the eyes of this county lord, they were probably just pawns to be used.
If they are obedient, they can continue to be used, but if they are disobedient, they will be discarded. How sad it is that they live in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Being able to work under this county lord is something that many people dream of.
Xiaoman looked at these people and bowed their heads. They must have understood their situation. She snorted, "And what about that bell? Come forward. Jiang Hu's fiancée, my apprentice has a fiancée. How come I don't know about this?"
Lingling was panicked. She had really missed something. She had originally thought that this person would not be alarmed. If Jiang Hu was allowed to handle it himself, Jiang Hu might let her go because of their friendship over the years.
But now it was the county lord who had no mercy at all. When she saw the county lord just now, she already knew that she was finished.
"I am Lingling, your subordinate, and I am honored to meet the county lady."
Xiaoman raised her eyebrows and looked at Lingdang: "Are you the woman who claims to be Jiang Hu's fiancée? This county lady is not the kind of unreasonable person. If Jiang Hu admits that you are his fiancée, I will not touch you. If you are pretending, you will know the consequences. Jiang Hu, come and identify whether this is your fiancée."
Looking at Jiang Hu, Lingling's eyes lit up and she looked at him with hope. As long as Jiang Hu admitted that she was his fiancée, everything would be fine.
Jiang Hu shook his head and looked at Xiao Man: "Master, I never told you that she was my fiancée. I only treated her as a subordinate. I sent her back early so that she could take care of the princess."
With every word Jiang Hu said, Lingdang's face turned paler. She looked at Jiang Hu and said, "Boss, how could you be like this? I really admire you. Since you have no interest in me, why don't you explain? Do you know that the whole world says that we are a perfect match?"
Jiang Hu frowned: "I don't know what you are talking about. Have you ever expressed your love to me? Did you say it clearly? Since you know, you should deny it yourself, instead of agreeing and causing misunderstandings."
Yu Xiangming suddenly spoke up: "In the end, this matter is all Miss Lingdang's fault. She is wishful thinking. The vice president never said that he liked you, but you envied the princess. This time, he used Cheng Hao to bully the princess. Cheng Hao is just a little stupid. He really has no bad intentions."
Xiaoman was a little surprised. Could there be an unexpected gain from this matter? "Oh? What I mean by this is that this idiot bullied my Beibei because of this woman? Was it her idea?"
Yu Chenghao immediately answered, "No, County Lady, it was not Lingdang's fault. I admire Miss Lingdang, so when I heard the county lady say that Miss Lingdang was not worthy of the vice president, I spoke rudely."
Xiaoman snorted, "My Beibei is not wrong. How can she be worthy of Jiang Hu? I don't have any requirements for Jiang Hu's fiancée. I only ask that Jiang Hu really likes her. But what about her? She knows that Jiang Hu has no interest in her, but she still creates that misunderstanding for everyone. Is she trying to ruin Jiang Hu's reputation?"
"Do you still think Jiang Hu will take it for granted just because most people think so? Lingling, right? Do you think you can tie Jiang Hu down with rumors?"
Lingling's eyes widened. All her thoughts were watched closely by the county lady. Now she wanted to refute, but she didn't know what to say for a moment.
Xiao Man snorted and glared at Jiang Hu in dissatisfaction: "You should solve her problems yourself. I won't interfere. Also, it's best not to keep any female subordinates around you in the future, so as to avoid any bad things and embarrassment."
Jiang Hu suddenly understood why his master and King Bingjian never had any female subordinates. Was this the reason
He has fundamentally cut off any contact with women other than his wife. Even if others want to plot against these two people through women, it seems impossible.
"Got it, Master."
Xiaoman thought for a moment and looked at the people in front of him: "You are always busy outside. It seems that you can't handle it alone. How about I find you a helper? I don't know much about this person, but he should be quite capable."
Gu Xiangning looked at Xiaoman with some surprise, wondering who Xiaoman was talking about? Jiang Hu nodded: "Whoever the master says to find, we will find him."
Xiaoman nodded: "I'll write a letter first to ask, he's still young, I don't know if his parents will agree! Forget it, I'll tell you if he agrees to come, you go and take care of your own affairs first. Imprison Yu Chenghao, leave tomorrow and take him to Beijing."
Younger? Jiang Hu frowned, not knowing who it was. But anyone who could be noticed by the master must be a very powerful person.
"Master, are you leaving so soon? Aren't you going to go find Beibei?"
Xiaoman blinked her eyes. "The news of our coming has spread all over the city, but Beibei didn't show up. Maybe she's angry! You are responsible for finding her and coaxing her. Otherwise, just wait, I will deal with you."
Jiang Hu originally planned to go to Beibei after solving the problem here. He could only nod: "I understand, then Master, Master, you have a good rest."
Siqi took Xiaoman and Gu Xiangning to the prepared room to rest. Jiang Hu looked at everyone. Everyone was in a bad mood and looked at Jiang Hu: "Vice President, we have embarrassed you."
Jiang Hu looked at everyone and said, "Forget it. You don't know who was the first person to receive the princess. Come out."
A woman stood up and looked at Jiang Hu: "Vice President, it's me. When they came, they said they were here to see you, Vice President, and they didn't reveal their identities. So, according to past practice, they were sent to live in a relatively shabby place."
Jiang Hu was stunned: "A relatively shabby place? Convention? Shouldn't you explain that the people who come to see me are all my friends, so how can they only live in a shabby place?"
He was really a little angry. No one expected that there would be such a routine. The Supervisory Committee had a special guest room for entertaining guests!
The woman was obviously terrified and spoke directly, "No, it was Sister Lingdang who told me that any woman who comes to see the vice president is not a good person, so they can't stay in the guest rooms. They can only stay in the more shabby places."
Jiang Hu looked at Lingdang: "How do you explain? Who do you think I am? You, the golden boy and jade girl, go out and spread the word yourself. Lingdang, since you have been my subordinate for three years, you can leave. You will no longer be a member of the Supervisory Committee, and I have nothing to do with you."
"Beibei has been wronged here this time. I hope you go and apologize to her in person. After you apologize, you can go home. From now on, you will have nothing to do with the Supervisory Committee."
Being driven away and having to apologize, Lingdang's eyes were full of grievance. But Jiang Hu turned a blind eye to it. Lingdang looked at Jiang Hu and said, "Are you really going to go this far?"
Jiang Hu looked at Lingling with some displeasure: "Is this too much? I asked you to come back early so that you could take care of the princess. When you found out that the princess was being bullied, you should have arrested Yu Chenghao on the spot. What about you?"
"You actually spoke up for Yu Chenghao and said that the princess had a bad temper. Who do you think you are? Are you qualified to say such things to the princess? Have you ever thought that Yu Chenghao's fate will be the same as yours? You are bringing trouble to your family."
Lingdang turned pale instantly. She had never thought of this. Jiang Hu saw Lingdang's expression change and knew that she understood: "So you understand, some people are destined to stand above you since birth. Even if you are dissatisfied, there is nothing you can do. Unless one day you are in a higher position than her, but compared to Beibei, I'm afraid you don't have a chance in this life."
Lingdang listened to Jiang Hu's words and felt that they were very heartbreaking: "Don't say anything more. I will follow you to find someone and apologize. It's my fault. I understand. I shouldn't have been so wishful and coveted someone I shouldn't have, and I shouldn't have disrespected the princess."
She now understood that there was someone who could completely defeat her without doing anything. In other words, that person had never taken her seriously, and she had never entered Jiang Hu's eyes.
Jiang Hu saw that Ling Dang understood, so he didn't say anything more: "Since you understand, then follow me and go to apologize to the princess together."
Looking at the other elders still standing here, Jiang Hu was helpless: "Issue the order and search for the princess' whereabouts. After finding her, do not disturb her and notify me directly."
The others followed the order and left. Now it seemed that the matter was resolved, and only Yu Chenghao was still waiting for his punishment.
The next day, Yu Chenghao's hands were tied, and the other end of the rope was tied to the back of the carriage. Xiaoman poked her head out from inside the carriage and said, "Hu Jiang, there's no need to see me off. Let's go."
Everyone understood that Yu Chenghao would probably suffer a lot on his way back. This princess had a new way of torturing people.
