Prefect Huang never dreamed that he would be discovered by the most arrogant and domineering daughter of the capital even though he had dodged in advance and even mixed in with the ordinary carriages with his two followers. He wanted to pretend that he didn't know who the other party was calling, but the two followers beside him immediately raised their heads as if they had heard an imperial decree.
Therefore, he could only look up and force a smile that was uglier than crying. However, he forgot that he didn't sleep well the previous night, and coupled with the fatigue from traveling during the day, his haggard face looked even more haggard. Although he didn't look like a skeleton, it looked even more suspicious to Zhu Ying.
After looking up, down, left and right for a while, Miss Zhu frowned and asked, "Do you know me?"
Prefect Huang's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately shook his head like a rattle in panic: "No... I don't know him!"
"Why are you hiding from me when you don't know me?" Zhu Ying narrowed her eyes, and her suspicion grew. "If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. I think you have something to hide, you are either a traitor or a thief! Someone, take these three to me first, and when we get to the capital, take them to the Shuntian government office and compare them with the arrest warrants to see if they are wanted criminals!"
Seeing this scene, Zhang Shou, who was in a dilemma, had to step out and stop them, saying, "Yingying, I just don't know how to face you. That's Hejian Prefect Huang, not some suspicious person!"
When Zhu Ying heard the words "Hejian Huang Zhifu", she couldn't help but frowned and asked suspiciously: "Who is Hejian Huang Zhifu? I don't know him. Why is he, a prefect, hiding from me? Am I a monster?" The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. She stared at the man from top to bottom, left to right, but she was completely confused.
Seeing that Zhu Ying didn't remember his origins after hearing about it, Prefect Huang regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. If he had known that Zhu Ying had such a bad memory, why would he hide? Wouldn't he have just pretended to be an irrelevant person in the back? At this moment, he just hoped that Zhang Shou or Ge Yong would not explain too much and let him get away with it.
Finally, his wish came true. Zhang Shou laughed and said, "Yingying, just forget it. It's not a big deal."
Ge Yong naturally didn't bother to remind Zhu Ying. He just heard about someone's son being kicked down the mountain by you. He coughed unhappily and changed the subject directly: "Little Yingying, I heard that you were so bold before that you scolded the Prime Minister Jiang in public at Tianxia Taiping Building on Qipan Street, and your father even confined you to your home?"
It was only when Prefect Huang arrived at Tongzhou Luhe Posthouse yesterday that he learned that Prime Minister Jiang Ge Lao had suddenly become the former Prime Minister. When he heard Ge Yong's words revealing the key, he immediately took a breath of cold air. It was already scary that the daughter of a rich family could bully his stupid son casually, but now this person was so fierce that she even dared to scold the Prime Minister
"Who said I was grounded?"
Zhu Ying raised her eyebrows and protested unconvincedly, "I had a quarrel with those nonsense scholars in Tianxia Taiping Building before, and I scolded Old Man Jiang. Even if Old Man Jiang was here, I would dare to scold him! But Grandpa Ge, please don't slander my father. I was sick because of those guys. My father even hired a royal doctor for me and said that he and Old Man Jiang are irreconcilable!"
