467. Chapter 467: You'll Know When You Go to the Yamen

The Shuntian Prefecture Governor's words had just fallen when several men nodded in unison.

Ask clearly.

The Shuntian Prefecture Governor sent his most capable constable head to bring people to the Prime Minister's residence, requesting Feng An Nuan come for questioning.

The Wind Prime Minister, upon hearing this, sent someone to fetch Feng An Nuan, and he went out to meet her.

"Constable Head, long time no see."

The Constable Head immediately led his subordinates in paying respects to the Wind Prime Minister.

The Wind Prime Minister waived their formalities, helped the Constable Head up, and said, "Constable Head, you're still as polite as ever. Didn't I tell you not to bow when you see me?"

"Etiquette cannot be abandoned."

The Constable Head clearly understood the Wind Prime Minister's meaning, but he was a subordinate of the Shuntian Prefecture Governor, not of the Wind Prime Minister.

Seeing him say that.

The Wind Prime Minister didn't beat around the bush, getting straight to the point: "Constable Head, I heard you came to ask my granddaughter Nuan Nuan to go to the Shuntian Prefecture, is that right?"

"Yes!"

The Constable Head nodded.

The Wind Prime Minister then said, "I've already sent someone to call her. Shall we sit in the parlor?"

"No need, the official is still waiting for us to return."

The Constable Head refused.

Seeing his cluelessness, the Wind Prime Minister spoke up: "I don't know, what does your official want me to have my granddaughter do?"

The Constable Head told the truth.

"Your granddaughter is involved in a case; the official has sent us to request her presence at the yamen for questioning."

"What else could people from the yamen be here for, if not because of a case?"

The Wind Prime Minister had actually guessed as much, but he didn't know what case it was.

They had gotten to this point.

The Constable Head still hadn't explained clearly, which inevitably made him a little angry.

He really doesn't put the Prime Minister in his eyes at all!

"Wait a moment, I'll also go with you to the Shuntian Prefecture yamen."

Hearing the Wind Prime Minister say that, the Constable Head calmly replied, "Prime Minister, please do as you wish."

They waited there for about two quarters of an hour.

Feng An Nuan had just arrived.

She wore a pure white dress, with only a white jade hairpin in her hair, making her look like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting.

As soon as she arrived, she bowed to the Wind Prime Minister.

"Grandfather."

The Wind Prime Minister pressed his lips and said to Feng An Nuan, "Nuan Nuan, the Shuntian Prefecture Governor has sent people to request your presence at the yamen for questioning, saying you're involved in a case. Do you know what case it is?"

Feng An Nuan looked surprised and said, "Grandfather, what case? I don't know."

She really doesn't know?

The Constable Head came to his senses and said, "Miss Feng, the specifics will be clear once we go to the yamen."

When they arrived at the yamen,

Qiao Xuehua stood on the left side of the hall, while the few men who had previously assaulted her knelt on the right.

Qiao Sheng and Shi Lin were given chairs to sit on by the Shuntian Prefecture Governor's order.

At that moment, they were seated to his lower right.

He caught a glimpse.

The Wind Prime Minister saw that they had arrived.

The Shuntian Prefecture Governor rose to greet the Wind Prime Minister, then had them let inside.

The Wind Prime Minister is advanced in years.

He is also the current Prime Minister.

The Shuntian Prefecture Governor didn't make him stand, and had a chair brought for him to sit.

As soon as the chair arrived,

The Shuntian Prefecture Governor struck the sounding board and began questioning Feng An Nuan: "Miss Feng, do you recognize the few men kneeling to your right?"

Feng An Nuan replied, "I know them; they are servants of my household."

They have been working in my household for several years.

A quick check would confirm it.

How could she claim not to know them?

Qiao Sheng couldn't help but think, Feng An Nuan is so calm; perhaps she already has a countermeasure.

She was thinking that.

The Shuntian Prefecture Governor continued questioning: "Miss Feng, they say you ordered them to tarnish Qiao Xuehua's purity—is that true?" (End of chapter)
