The Regent's Tender Darling

Chapter 299 The Governor of Jingzhao Mansion

This Princess Regent no longer has an official position, but she is still a Princess Regent. He must have taken advantage of her just now, and actually made light of the Princess Regent.

I heard a cold voice coming from above my head: "In the thirty-fifth year of Yanzhao, the late emperor issued a decree to clean up the atmosphere in the capital. No wandering or beggars were allowed in the capital. All beggars and all kinds of gangsters without household registration in the capital were banned. Send him back to his place of origin! The Jingzhao Mansion without his place of origin will be properly resettled!”

After carrying out the order issued by the late emperor, Liao Guoning was so frightened that his legs became weak. Before he could say anything, Lin Jiaojiao continued: "Your Jingzhao Mansion actually just drove out the beggars from the capital to save trouble. The capital hastily settled the matter, what crime do you deserve!"

As the words fell, the sound of the gavel fell immediately! Liao Guoning was so frightened that he knelt down without saying anything, and even slapped Lin Jiaojiao's own hand until it hurt!

She was really too angry just now, and the force was really too much. She gritted her teeth and endured the pain without showing anything. If she cried out in pain at this time, it would definitely be inappropriate.

Xuemei saw everything with her eyes. The moment just now, she seemed to be patting the flesh on the side of the empress's hand. Just thinking about it made her feel very painful.

Fortunately, Liao Guoning kept his head down, and now he knelt down, trembling all over.

Lin Jiaojiao struck while the iron was hot and continued: "You not only neglected your duties! You deceived the superiors and deceived the subordinates! How many heads can you chop off for the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

When he heard about beheading, Liao Guoning was so frightened that he buried his head and felt a chill on his neck. He couldn't bear the crime of deceiving the emperor!

She replied tremblingly: "Wang...Princess, I am unjustly accused."

Then he continued to explain: "Because this beggar disobeyed the government's arrangements. After being sent out of the capital and sent back to his hometown, they will come back on their own. There is really nothing the official can do."

"There is nothing you can do?" Lin Jiaojiao sneered after hearing this, and asked: "What happened to Tianba's group? I saw them leaving Jingzhao Mansion with my own eyes!"

The governor of Jingzhao could still argue with her even when he was about to die. It was really unfortunate for Danan to have such an official!

Liao Guoning raised his head slightly and said in embarrassment: "Princess, Tianba's group and his uncle are the second-rank officials in the imperial court. It is difficult to handle even a low-ranking official..."

No matter what Lin Jiaojiao's reaction was, she said with a sense of injustice: "Besides, Tianba and his group have no serious crimes, and they are not heinous people. I can only fine them some money according to the law."

Hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao was furious. She looked at the table, picked up the tea cup and smashed it into Liao Guoning's arms. It didn't break, but the tea spilled all over.

Liao Guoning held the intact tea cup and looked at the angry look on the face of the Princess Regent. He quickly took it and knocked it on his forehead, but there was still no movement from the tea cup.

"Princess..." Liao Guoning swallowed and carefully presented the tea cup with a look of horror on his face. The tea cup was too strong. I really couldn't blame him.

Before Liao Guoning could react, Lin Jiaojiao said angrily: "Tianba and others are oppressing the common people! Using ruthlessness to control beggars around the capital to make money, isn't this a felony? Isn't this a heinous crime?"

"Then tell me, this princess, what is an unforgivable evil? Only murder, arson, and rebellion can be considered an unforgivable evil?"

This time, Liao Guoning was really frightened. He quickly put down the tea cup he was holding and kowtowed: "This... I don't know this, but the princess is aware of it."

Seeing that Liao Guoning was still here shirking his responsibilities, Lin Jiaojiao glanced at Little Loach and said, "Little Loach! Tell me what happened to Tianba and others!"

Little Loach, who was standing with Xuemei, was looking at Liao Guoning angrily. When he heard the Princess Regent calling him, he quickly walked to the middle and knelt down.
