Chapter 61: Prison Disaster (Part 2)

Wang Menghai rushed to the venue with a group of yamen runners angrily. There had been reports from the servants of the county prince's mansion and Xiang Zhonghui. Xiang Zhonghui quickly walked to the audience and asked for questions.

Wang Menghai hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Please pay tribute to the prince!"

"Mr. Wang, the day before yesterday, I sent someone to send you an invitation. You said you could not come to participate in this 'Porcelain Appreciation Conference' for busy official business. Why did you come here uninvited today?"

"Report to the prince, the officials are here today for official business. I am so disrespectful. I hope you don't blame me for being a thousand years!"

"Oh, what kind of official business is it for Lord Wang to come here in person?" Xiang Zhonghui heard that coming to the "Porcelain Appreciation Conference" to work on the office work was not a good thing.

"Haha, the official is here today to send two bad guys to the government office for a question."

"Bad person? My 'Porcelain Appreciation Conference' invites merchants from all over the world and seniors from the collection industry. How could there be any brute person?" Xiang Zhonghui heard that he was looking for some "blame" and was clearly here to cause trouble and deliberately disrupt the "Porcelain Appreciation Conference".

"I don't know, according to the report from the government servants, two young men came from Junzhou these days. They disguised themselves and scrambled into the city, pretending to be a Taoist priest and scrambled into the county prince's mansion. Their actions were very suspicious. For the safety of Qiansui, and to ensure the smooth progress of the "Porcelain Reward Conference", we came to bring these two suspicious people to the mansion for questioning!"

After hearing this, Xiang Zhonghui quickly turned around and looked at Liu Yixuan and Ling'er standing behind him, and asked, "Are the suspicious person Mr. Wang talking about is those two young masters?"

Seeing that Xiang Zhonghui had understood the purpose of coming, Wang Menghai replied: "It's those two people!"

"Hahaha, I think Lord Wang is too worried. That Young Master Liu is the judge of the porcelain appreciation and evaluation I invited. He is not a bad person at all!" Xiang Zhonghui thought Wang Menghai was worried about nothing, but he didn't know that he had no intention.

"Oh? Since those two young men were invited by Qiansui, do you know their identities?"

"That Young Master Liu was a student of the Imperial Academy who had been studying in the capital. A few days ago, he pretended to be a fortune-teller. He only wanted to go to the mansion to discuss calligraphy and painting collections with me. I saw that he was well-informed and knowledgeable, and was a rare young talent, so I kept him in Junzhou to attend the "Porcelain Appreciation Conference". I think Lord Wang was probably misunderstood for a while!" Xiang Zhonghui said with a smile, thinking that he was a false alarm.

"Oh? Haha, Lao Qiansui only knows that he is a student of the Imperial Academy. Do you know which family is in his house? Who are his parents?"

"This... I asked him, and he said it was inconvenient to tell me, so I didn't ask again. Seeing that he was a young student and a weak scholar, how could he be a villain?"

"That's it. As the saying goes, "Know people, but not the heart." Since Qiansui doesn't know what family he comes from, how can he trust him so much and regard him as a guest of honor in his mansion. I think there is something in it, right?" Wang Menghai said, "How could Xiang Zhonghui not hear it?"

"What do you mean by saying this? I saw that he was a young talented man and loved talent for a while, so I didn't pay attention to his origin."

"The lower official has no other intentions. He just thinks that this person's identity is suspicious, so he wants to invite him to the government office to discuss it. He hopes that Qiansui can do his best to fulfill his duties as a parent."

"If I don't give you this convenience, what can you do?" Xiang Zhonghui saw that his visitor was not good, so how could he allow him to show off his power? He is a royal relative, so he took such a small official seriously. He was already giving him face when he spoke kindly to him, but he didn't expect that this guy was ungrateful and insisted on arresting people.

When Wang Menghai saw Xiang Zhonghui's face down for a moment, he felt a little afraid. After all, he was the vassal king here. However, he had already received a letter from his father-in-law, asking him to keep Liu Yixuan in Junzhou. Since the Grand Tutor was supporting him, he had also gained some courage and said:

"Don't be angry, Qiansui, the old official came to take the people today, not just to catch them at will, but these two people are unknown, so they need to go to the government office to ask them clearly. If Qiansui does not allow it, the old official has to be rude! Come on, take those two people down for me!"

"You dare! I see who dares to take a step forward! I dare to catch people in front of me. I think you are tired of living! Believe it or not, I will just let the emperor be like you, the dog official!" Xiang Zhonghui raised two gray eyebrows and his eyes wide open. None of the officers in the Junzhou Prefecture Office dared to come forward.

"Old Qiansui, if the Xiaguan had no real evidence, how could he come to disturb him? I believe that the Lao Qiansui had already known the identity of Mr. Liu. If you obstruct me like this, are you afraid that the Xiaguan would take them back and ask something, and you would feel guilty for a moment?"

"I am guilty? I am dedicated to working hard for the emperor and being open and honest. What's the guilty thing?"

"Tell you the truth. I have already found out the identity of this young master. He is the son of Liu Anguo, the prime minister of the dynasty. The son of the old Qiansui privately met with an important official in the capital. He has long been suspected of being a rebellious. He has tried every means to obstruct him at this moment. If he is not guilty, what is it?"

Xiang Zhonghui was also surprised when he heard that Liu Yixuan was the son of the prime minister of the current dynasty. He never expected that the prefect of Junzhou had already stared at him secretly and put him on the hat of treason. He was speechless when he asked his questions, "You... you shameless villain, I don't know that he is the son of the prime minister of the prime minister of Liu. Don't swear at others!"

"Hmph, do you know in advance that I don't care. I only know that I am on order. I have reported this matter to the Grand Master. He ordered the officials to take the two of them back to the government office and wait for the emperor's will to make a decision. Come and take those two of them!"

Liu Yixuan listened to their speech from afar. He thought Xiang Zhonghui would use the power of the prince to protect him, but after hearing the suspicion of rebellion, Xiang Zhonghui was also worried and could not protect himself for the time being.

"Ling'er, run quickly!" Liu Yixuan saw the official messenger coming up to catch him, and hurriedly pulled Ling'er into the crowd. When the people in front saw someone rushing over, they decided to make way. Liu Yixuan and Ling'er squeezed and rushed, but the crowd gathered was hard to move forward. Several agile yamen runners had already caught up from behind and grabbed Ling'er.

"Ah, it hurts so much!" Ling'er screamed and fell to the ground. Liu Yixuan hurried over to help her, knowing that she could not run away. Several yamen runners rushed up and grabbed them.

How could Ling'er's weak body be treated like this? She had already cried and cried for pain. Liu Yixuan quickly shouted: "Let her go, I won't run away, I'll go with you!"

Wang Menghai walked over and saw Ling'er's face full of elegance. He must have been a young man in the capital and said, "Take him away together!"

"You dog official, don't you want to catch me? Why do you want to catch him too?" Liu Yixuan tried hard to break free, trying to get rid of the yamen runner's hands.

"I see that this young man is tender and tender, so he is probably the son of the princes and ministers in the capital. He happened to be arrested together and find out more traitors who are trying to rebel!" Then he took the two back to the Junzhou Prefecture Office.
