"Make way! Make way! Make way! "
As soon as the carriage drove into Linzi, it heard a commotion.
The streets of Linzi were bustling with people. People were cursing each other, chatting, peddling, and neighing … It was a world of sound. There was order in the chaos until it was disturbed by the rampaging carriage.
The spring water in the pool was all wrinkled, causing people to frown.
Jiang Wang didn't say anything. He cleaned the inner residence. Although he had obtained the secret treasure, he could still understand himself better by "cleaning" the rooms in the inner residence.
Exploring himself, exploring the world, cultivation was endless.
The coachman of Pau's Carriage and Horse Company was also well-trained. He obediently drove the carriage to the side of the road and let the arrogant person pass.
"Whose carriage is this? It's so unruly. Aren't they afraid of hurting passers-by?"
"What? Are you going to stop it? That's the Imperial Uncle's carriage! "
"Sigh, let's go. Who can afford to offend them?"
The discussion in the crowd didn't escape Jiang Wang's ears.
The Imperial Uncle's Residence?
The relative of the current Daqi Empresses?
Crown Prince Jiang Wuhua's mother's family?
He vaguely remembered that the Jubao Merchants had an honorary deacon named Cao Xing. He was the Imperial Uncle's subordinate. Later, when the Jubao Merchants were in trouble, he quickly withdrew and announced the collapse of the Jubao Merchants.
After that, the Imperial Uncle's residence disappeared without a trace. It couldn't be any more low-key. Why is he so arrogant now?
Jiang Wang was a little unhappy, but he didn't plan to do anything.
First, the other party's attitude was a little rude. However, he only shouted arrogantly and didn't really dare to hit any ordinary people. The coachman obviously had some cultivation. He controlled the horse very steadily and clearly knew where the bottom line was. He probably just wanted to satisfy the arrogance of the young master in the carriage. If that was the case, he was really a good-for-nothing.
Jiang Wang knew a lot of young masters in Qi. There were those who spent a lot of money, those who killed decisively, those who played around with women … There were all kinds of people. However, he had never seen such a good-for-nothing who was arrogant in front of ordinary people for fun.
Secondly, he was just avoiding the path, so it wasn't much of a grievance. Moreover, his nameplate wasn't hung on the horse, so no one would know that the person sitting in the carriage was Jiang Qingyang.
The coachman pulled the carriage back onto the main road and complained in a low voice, "I don't know what the Northern Yamen is doing. They don't even care about the carriages in the busy streets. They only care about ordinary people."
Nominally, the Blue Medal belonged to the Northern Yamen.
"Maybe it's because no one saw it. If they saw it, they would naturally care." Jiang Wang was a bit embarrassed. He said through the curtain, "Speaking of which, is your Bao family's carriage afraid of the imperial uncle's family? You even made way for them. "
This carriage was hired by someone from the City Lord's Mansion, so the coachman didn't know who was in the carriage.
She was just complaining in a low voice, but she didn't expect the customer on the bus to have such sharp ears.
He scolded himself for being talkative in his heart. He held the reins firmly and replied, "You must be joking. When a carriage company opened its doors to do business, who were they angry with? Moreover, although our boss is from the imperial uncle's family and is incomparably noble, how could we servants have the right to wear the tiger's skin? Moreover, you're sitting in the carriage! How could we drag our customers into this because of our temper? "
Jiang Wang nodded inwardly. It wasn't without reason that Pau's Carriage and Horse Company could become so large.
They chatted idly on this side of the road.
They had already passed by the end of the street when a shout suddenly rang out, "Stop the carriage with me!"
The voice was stern and righteous. "Who are you? How dare you drive a carriage and cause trouble? Do you have any regard for the law?!"
The coachman said angrily, "This carriage belongs to the imperial uncle's estate!"
"What estate?! Get out with me! "
This voice was quite familiar. Jiang Wang recognized it as the son of the Northern Yamen's Commandant, Zheng Shangming.
However, although he had interacted with Zheng Shangming several times, he had never seen this side of him before.
Jiang Wang's interest was piqued. Coincidentally, the coachman also subconsciously slowed down. He smiled and said, "Let's stop and watch the show."
"Okay!" The coachman's voice contained a hint of suppressed excitement.
Punishing evil and upholding good, upholding justice — this was a play that everyone liked to see. Similar plots had been popular for a long time.
Jiang Wang didn't stick his head out to look. He only listened to the sound of the voice. While keeping a low profile, he also trained his Five Immortals Dream Command.
A weak but arrogant voice said, "Zheng Shangming! You want to make things difficult for me?! "
It should be the young master in the carriage coming out.
Then, Zheng Shangming's unhesitatingly retorted, "It's not that I want to make things difficult for you. He Zhen wants to make things difficult for Qi Lv! According to the Ceremonial Orders, those who leave must avoid coming in. Those who leave the city must make way for those who enter the city. Why do you wave your whip and shout, telling those who enter the city to make way for you? The Ceremonial Orders also say that when driving a carriage to cause trouble in the city, it must be three times slow and four times steady. Did your carriage slow down for a moment? Not only did it not slow down, it even dared to charge forward! If I take you down today, even the Imperial Uncle will have nothing to say! "
The more he spoke, the more excited he became. "Come! Detain this carriage and detain the person in the carriage! Bring them all back to Beiya! "
He Zhen was the son of the Imperial Uncle, He Fu. He was also the cousin of the current crown prince, Jiang Wuhua.
He shouted, "Let's see who dares!"
Then, there was a loud bang.
It should be Zheng Shangming who made a move personally. With just one move, he had already restrained him.
"I, Zheng Shangming, follow the law. Why wouldn't I dare?!"
He Zhen's mouth was probably sealed and he couldn't speak.
The coachman, who had shouted to make way and then arrogantly resisted, now had a humble attitude. "Our young master indeed had important matters to attend to and was in a hurry to leave the city … Although the carriage was in a hurry, no one was hurt along the way. Young Master Zheng, can you give him a way out … "
Zheng Shangming didn't give him any face and simply ignored him. He only said, "According to Qi Lv, those who refuse to be arrested can be killed!"
Thus, there was no more resistance.
The carriage was detained and the people were tied up.
"Good!"
It was unknown who started it, but there was a sudden burst of cheers on the street.
"Good job, Lord Zheng!"
"Beiya is mighty!"
"Everyone, you're too kind! Shang Ming is just following the law and doing his duty. Everyone obeys the law and lives in peace and contentment. This is the foundation of Da Qi's prosperity! "Zheng Shangming's clear and loud voice said," Alright! Everyone, please disperse! Pay attention to your feet and don't step on them. "
"Let's go." Jiang Wang said softly in the midst of the heat.
The coachman didn't dawdle and pulled the reins to leave.
However, there was a sound coming from the other end of the street. It was the sound of wind breaking through the air.
Before Jiang Wang could analyze the situation, Zheng Shangming's voice sounded outside the carriage. "Are you all alright? Someone was rude to the carriage. This is the responsibility of the patrol office of the capital city. "
At this time, his attitude was warm and gentle, completely different from the sternness he showed to He Zhen.
Under such circumstances, it would be rude of Jiang Wang to not show up.
Thus, even though he was worried about the quota for the Yellow River Meeting, he still lifted the curtain and greeted Zheng Ren. "Brother Zheng!"
He smiled sincerely. "Your elegance today is unforgettable!"

PS:
The stone inscription of the "Rites Edict" unearthed in the Southern Song Dynasty wrote, "The lowly avoids the noble, the weak avoids the strong, the light avoids the heavy, the go avoids the come." It was the traffic law of the time.
Da Qi is different. I made some adjustments and additions ~
…
…
For these three nights, I'll take a break from paying off my debts.
There are too many people coming and going during the New Year. I can't write from morning to night. After all, I'm also a handsome young man from the surrounding villages. Greeting and sending off people is a front. I'll greet them a few times and there won't be any time left. Last night, I wrote until the clock ticked down. I'm too tired …
There will be a regular update.
Begging for monthly votes ~
Love you all ~
