There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 429 Persuasion (Part [-])
The magistrate's wife and the prefect's daughter opened their eyes wide at the same time, looking at Li Jiaoniang in surprise.

Obviously, the news was shocking.

"You... what did you say? Is this true?" Madam Zhifu asked incredulously.

"It's absolutely true!" Li Jiaoniang said, "Now he's in trouble, and I can't deal with it lightly, so I came here specially to ask the prefect and his wife how to solve the problem he encountered. trouble."

The prefect's wife took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "What's going on? How did Prince Pu'an become your adopted son? No, no, no, I mean, how did your adopted son become Pu'an?" The king of the county? How did you know his identity?"

Li Jiaoniang said, "Ma'am, have you forgotten about my relative, Mrs. Lu, or Mrs. Chu Guogong? She has a close relationship with the queen mother in the palace, and she often goes to Lin'an City. How could she not recognize Pu?" Prince An?"

"..."

"It's just that the child lost his memory, and he can't remember some things. We weighed it and didn't say it. But now, people from Lin'an have found it. I'm afraid we can't hide this matter."

The magistrate's wife picked up the teacup, squinted her eyes and said, "Ms. Li, you are so courageous. How dare you hide such a major matter from reporting? Come to us when something goes wrong?"

Li Jiaoniang expected that the magistrate's wife would ask such a question.

But it happened for a reason, and she didn't do it on purpose.

Li Jiaoniang said, "Ma'am, I didn't report it on purpose, I did it for the good of the magistrate and the officials of Yuezhou City."

Madam Zhifu raised her eyes and asked doubtfully, "How do you say that?"

Li Jiaoniang said, "Ma'am, when I saw that child, I didn't know his identity. He was dressed like a beggar, and he still lost his memory. He was like an idiot who didn't know everything when he asked me.

"..."

"I felt sorry for him, so I took him into the hospital and raised him like a son. After a few days, when we went to Lu's residence for a banquet, Mrs. Lu recognized him."

"..."

"At that time, Mrs. Lu also said that she would send him to Lin'an immediately, but I thought, if I send him now, how will I explain to the Lin'an officials?"

"..."

"Would the officials think that the people in Yuezhou City tortured him into a fool in cold blood? The magistrate is in charge of the law and order of one side, but under his rule, the adopted son of the dignified official family, the king of Pu'an County, is being bullied Become a fool?"

"..."

"Madam, at that time, whether it's the magistrate or other officials' families in the city, how will they reply to the officials' questions?"

Li Jiaoniang's tone was neither urgent nor slow, and she talked about the seriousness of the matter in a calm manner.

In Madam Zhifu's mind, her dissatisfaction with Li Jiaoniang gradually turned into admiration, thinking that a little lady from the medical clinic actually understands the court situation!

After a while, she was afraid again, and her back gradually felt cold.

It's also thanks to Li Jiaoniang's intelligence, who knows the stakes, if this Prince of Pu'an is met by other people, and the matter goes to the official's house, her man's magistrate will not even think about it!
"This..." She took a breath and said to her daughter, "Go quickly, invite your father to come here and say that there is something important to discuss."

The magistrate's daughter is not very old, just 14 years old, but she comes from a family of officials and has seen many things.

She heard the seriousness of the matter, and immediately stood up, "Yes, mother."

The magistrate's wife was worried, and she pulled her sleeves and said, "You must keep this matter in your stomach, and don't talk about it!"

"Understood, mother." The magistrate's daughter nodded solemnly, went to open the door, and ran to the front yard.

The matter was serious, and the magistrate immediately came to the back house after hearing the news.

After entering the room, he closed the door himself, stopped talking politely, and immediately asked Li Jiaoniang, "Miss Li, please repeat what you said to my wife just now."

Li Jiaoniang nodded, "Okay."

She repeated it again, emphasizing it.

The magistrate's face was serious, he pondered for a moment, and asked, "Miss Li, you said someone from Lin'an came here, who is it? How does the government not know that someone from Lin'an has come to Yuezhou?"

Li Jiaoniang said in her heart, she came here in a micro-service, and will let you know?
She said, "It's an official."

The word "official family" frightened the prefect's family.

"You...how did you know? How did you recognize the official family?" The magistrate asked even more puzzled.

"I don't know it, but I can guess it." Li Jiaoniang said, "Opposite to my clinic is a large tavern. I am familiar with the people in that tavern. They told me that there is a tavern coming Three queer people."

"..."

"The owner is rich, and he claims to be a businessman, but he doesn't behave like a businessman. He looks like an official, and he is a high-ranking official. Out of curiosity, I secretly went to see it."

"..."

"The voice is Lin'an accent. One of them is in his fifties, with a medium height and a thin face, with a straight nose and a hook. There is also a young follower named Ji Chang, and a tall guard in his twenties. His name is Zheng Yuan."

She has never seen Emperor Gaozong, but she has seen many ancient paintings, and according to the ancient paintings, she can't go wrong with her appearance.

As for the appearance of the other two attendants, that's what Huzi told her.

The prefect and the prefect's wife looked at each other, and their expressions became even more horrified.

What Li Jiaoniang said was really true today, that Jichang servant, they had met and had tea together.

Li Jiaoniang said again, "They are saying, find a chance to meet the Pu'an County King quietly, and check if it is as the rumors say, they are fools."

"..."

"As for me, I made preparations in advance and will hide the Pu'an County King. Because if they find that the Pu'an County King has amnesia and dementia, my lord and other officials in Yuezhou City will be in trouble."

"..."

"The city gate is on fire, which affects the fish in the pond. If your lord has something to do, so will the Lu family, and so will my little commoner. For everyone's safety, I'm here to ask you to help me."

The prefect of Yuezhou pinched the tip of his beard in thought.

This Mrs. Li is young, but she thinks far-reaching.

Indeed, if the officials found out that the King of Pu'an was demented and lost his memory, even if he was not persecuted in Yuezhou City, the officials would punish the people in Yuezhou City under the anger of the officials!

The king of Pu'an County is clever, and he lives in a deep palace, and he is accompanied by entourages. Why he suddenly became like this, and became a beggar on the streets of Yuezhou. The reason for this is intriguing.

No, no, he can guess it!
Now the official family has two adopted sons, the powerful officials in the palace and the aristocratic families in Lin'an City are all secretly standing in line, hoping that the prince in their respective lines will inherit the throne.

Standing in line, of course, is secretly fighting, quietly slaughtering another prince who is a threat to the throne, there are countless such secret histories in the palace throughout the ages!

He already knew the true identity of Li Jiaoniang's adopted son, and he didn't want to participate in the battle between the princes, so he didn't see through it.

Worried that his family would speak out, he didn't even tell his wife and daughter.

But now, things still can't be avoided!
The officials came here and found that the adopted son was demented and lost his memory. He must be the first one to question him!
Thinking of this, cold sweat gradually broke out on the forehead of Yuezhou prefect.

Madam Zhifu noticed that his expression was wrong, and asked anxiously, "Sir, what should you do now?"

"Father..." The magistrate's daughter was also frightened.

The prefect of Yuezhou looked at Li Jiaoniang, and found that she was calm and looked at him calmly.

He was even more puzzled.

What this little lady encountered was a major event that would kill her, but she was not afraid at all?So calm and calm, there will be promise in the future.

Unfortunately, she married a worthless villager.

The prefect of Yuezhou bowed his hands to Li Jiaoniang, "Miss Li is calm, but has a good plan?"

Li Jiaoniang smiled slightly, "I don't know if it's a good strategy, but after thinking about it, this is the only way right now."

"Miss Li, please tell me."

Li Jiaoniang said, "The official family came here in modest clothes, and did not disturb any officials or wealthy families in Yuezhou City. I suspect that his sudden visit was instigated by someone with ulterior motives."

"..."

"It may be that the factions instigated the prince to grab the throne, and the other party intends to expose the shortcomings of the Pu'an County King. It may also be the work of a spy. After learning about the Pu'an County King, they deliberately provoked the dispute between the princes and caused turmoil in the court. No matter what it is .We can't make the government's plan come true."

"..."

"Then, at this time, it is best for someone to recognize the official, so that he cannot meet alone with the Pu'an County King. As long as he does not meet alone, he will not be able to see through the Pu'an County King's amnesia and dementia. And the Lord is the prefect of Yuezhou. Is the best choice."

"..."

"In addition, the news that his official family left state affairs and went to Yuezhou spread to Lin'an. The officials and historians in Lin'an will not sit idly by and will definitely come to persuade him to go back. King Pu'an is safe, and your lord will It’s safe, and the imperial court can have a safe New Year.”

With Li Jiaoniang's analysis like this, the governor of Yuezhou suddenly became enlightened.

That's right, he can't just sit idly by, both public and private!

The magistrate of Yuezhou breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, I'll go see the official family!" But after a while, he said worriedly, "Miss Li, this is just a temporary way to keep the official family from being alone with the King of Pu'an, but the general public It is impossible for King An to stay in Yuezhou for a long time, he will leave and return to Lin'an sooner or later, at that time, the officials will come to investigate again, what should we do?"

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Master Zhifu, have you forgotten one thing? I am a doctor. The king of Pu'an County has lived in my clinic for a few days, and his memory loss has improved. I just want to delay the time of treatment, give me another month, and his illness will definitely be cured."

The magistrate has also seen Li Jiaoniang's medical skills.

Hearing what Li Jiaoniang said, most of the worries in his heart immediately disappeared, "Okay, just as Li Niangzi said, I will go to see the official right away."

Li Jiaoniang said again, "Master, remember to go with great fanfare!"

The prefect of Yuezhou laughed, "Lady Li reminded me."

After discussing, Li Jiaoniang left the magistrate's yamen.

The prefect's wife felt a little uneasy, and asked the prefect, "Master, what Mrs. Li said, does it work?"

The prefect of Yuezhou said, "Whether it works or not, this is the only way. I will invite more people to come and meet the officials together. By the way, you should also invite some people. The more people, the better."

Madam Zhifu thought of the wives of several aristocratic families, nodded and said, "Okay."

When the Jin soldiers committed crimes in the south, most of the wealthy families in the capital fled to the south. Gaozong also set up a small court in Yuezhou City.

After the war was pacified, the officials who returned to their original posts followed Gaozong to Lin'an. The family was just a dilapidated family and no one was an official, so they settled down in Yuezhou City.

Therefore, it is not difficult to invite some aristocratic families.

The governor of Yuezhou and the wife of the prefect each sent someone to invite someone.

In less than half an hour, more than 50 people came one after another.

The sedan chair and carriage were crowded at the gate of the magistrate's yamen.

The men gathered in the main hall, discussing why the magistrate suddenly invited them here.

These people are all famous figures in Yuezhou City, either officials or merchants who have done a lot of business.

The magistrate was very satisfied when he saw them.

He cleared his throat and said, "I invite everyone here in a hurry, because a nobleman has come to the city, and I want to take you all to meet and say hello."

An elder asked first, "Master Zhifu, who is this noble person?"

"Officials."

Officer... home?

More than 40 people were all shocked in the local area.

"It's my blessing in Yuezhou City that the official family came to Yuezhou. Let's go to greet you immediately with the government." The magistrate changed his court clothes on purpose, he straightened his hat, and walked out of the main hall first.

The others came to their senses and followed one after another.

I'm afraid that when I face the saint, I will be one step behind and won't be able to flatter.

In the back house, the imperial wives invited by the magistrate's wife also asked the reason for the invitation.

The prefect's wife replied truthfully that she wanted to take them to face the saint, saying that Emperor Gaozong came to Yuezhou City that day.
