Allure of a Country Maiden

After Xiaoer was pulled up by Shangguan Xuanjun, Shangguan Xuanyi climbed up easily.

"Are you injured?" Shangguan Xuanhao glanced at the two of them and asked.

"Are you injured?" Shangguan Ruixi and others also asked the same question.

Xiaoer shook her head: "I didn't. Brother Shangguan's hand must have been injured."

"It's okay!" Shangguan Xuanyi shook his head.

"Go up and see what's going on!" Then she pulled Xiao'er and walked up.

At this time, Shangguan Wanru also ran over and hugged Xiaoer: "County Master Ruian, you scared me to death!"

Xiao'er, squeezed by the softness of someone's chest, really wanted to jump off the building!

"Xiao'er, aren't you afraid?" Fu Ranhui's face was still pale with fear. She saw that Xiao'er's face was still rosy and she was being held by Shangguan Wanru. Her face was helpless and she didn't look scared at all. She couldn't help feeling sorry for her heart. Powerful sigh.

"I'm a martial arts practitioner, so I won't be too scared. And before I started to get scared, Brother Shangguan grabbed me."

"You are so brave!" Fu Ranhui was speechless.

"Seeing that martial arts training is not without its merits." Shangguan Wanru thought thoughtfully.

Xiaoer:......

When did practicing martial arts become useless!

The sixth floor was open to officials. At this time, the magistrate of Cangsheng County came up. He recognized Shangguan Xuanhao as the prince, and looked at several other people. Two of them had very similar eyebrows to Shangguan Xuanhao. He hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "The magistrate of Cangsheng County, Xiaguan met with several princes and adults."

When Shangguan Xuanhao saw this man, he was furious and wanted to kick him: "How dare you admit that you are the magistrate of Cangsheng County! You are here just right! Follow me up and have a look!"

The county magistrate's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the fall of these two people was not an accident, but that there was another hidden reason?

God, didn't you wake up today? This is the son of the emperor! Fuze is so generous, shouldn't you protect him well? How could such an accident happen to him?

Everyone came up again, and only Princess Ling'er and her maid were left standing motionless on the seven-story tower.

When she saw Shangguan Xuanyi walking up unscathed, she rolled her eyes: "Sixth Prince, it's great that you're not dead!"

"Shut up if you can't speak. No one will say you're mute if you don't speak!" Fu Ranhui glared at her fiercely.

Xiao'er couldn't bear to look at Princess Ling'er's stupidity, and she really deserved to be scolded.

Shangguan Xuanyi gave her a cold look.

"Are you disappointed that the Sixth Prince is not dead?" Shangguan Wanru became even more angry after hearing this and couldn't help but choked.

"I didn't mean that!" Princess Ling'er was angry.

"What do you mean? Don't you want to deliberately cause the Lord Rui'an to fall off the tower?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't do this!" Princess Ling'er was worried that Shangguan Xuanyi wouldn't believe her, so she defended herself with a pale face. She said to Xiaoer: "County Princess Ruian, I didn't meet you just now. It’s none of my business if you fall!”

Xiao'er nodded and said matter-of-factly: "Indeed, it was because I was leaning back against the barrier to avoid your waving hand. Princess Ling'er's hand did not touch me at that time."

Xiao'er is not a person who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong. Although she and Princess Ling'er have no relationship, she will not slander her like this.

Shangguan Xuanyi glanced at Princess Ling'er coldly and said nothing. Anyway, it was because of her that the girl fell!

As for whether she was waving her hands intentionally or unintentionally, it remains to be discussed.

No matter what, he would naturally find out whether she did this intentionally or not!

Princess Ling'er shuddered at Shangguan Xuanyi's sight.

Xiaoer was recalling whether Princess Ling'er waved her hands intentionally or unintentionally.

"The barrier has been eaten by termites and is almost hollow inside. If Lord Ruian leans on it, the barrier will be unable to bear her weight and break." Shangguan Ruixi stood up and said after inspecting the broken barrier. .

After hearing this, everyone ran over and took a look: there were obvious signs of moth infestation on the fracture.

The barrier was repainted, so no one noticed that the barrier was moth-eaten.

"My Lord Magistrate of Cangsheng County, what's your explanation?" Shangguan Xuanhao looked at him with a cold voice.

Today is Guyu, so the Lingcang Tower will definitely be open. Before opening, tower keepers must clean and inspect the tower.

Even in ordinary times, the tower requires regular maintenance and repairs.

Now that the guardrail has been hollowed out by white mosquitoes, and a life-threatening accident has almost occurred, one must be held accountable.

When the magistrate of Cangsheng County heard that the barrier had been eaten away by termites, causing a county lord and a prince to fall from the tower, he felt as if he had been struck by thunder.

He was wrong. God is not blind. They fell from a seven-story tower and nothing happened. Isn't this God's blessing?

What God wants to harm is not the emperor’s son, God wants to kill him!

He clearly told the people below that the Lingcang Tower must do a good job in cleaning and security inspections, but he didn't expect that they dared to violate it! This is simply unreasonable! This is trying to kill him!

If something happened to the prince here today, how many times would he have to die to be buried with him?

Thinking of this, the magistrate of Cangsheng County quickly knelt down: "This official neglected his duty and deserves death! I beg the Second Prince to punish me."

The magistrate of Cangsheng County did not say anything else to shirk responsibility and directly confessed.

Shangguan Xuanhao's expression softened.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and arrange for someone to see what other parts of the tower are infested by termites. If there is another accident, you don't need the human head on your neck! Also, this Lingcang Tower is a river demon. You are not a rat breeder! If a rat appears in the tower in the future, I will let you eat it alive!" Shangguan Xuanhao waved his hand and let him go down.

Does this mean there is no need to behead? The magistrate of Cangsheng County was overjoyed. He quickly kowtowed and thanked him, and then rolled down to make arrangements.

White mosquitoes are very harmful. If not treated in time, the entire tower may collapse.

"Just let him go like this?" Shangguan Wanru said dissatisfied.

"He must have arranged for someone to clean and inspect it, otherwise the barrier would not have been painted with a new coat of paint. His crime is that he was not strict with his subordinates, and the crime is not worthy of death! The real crime is the one who violated the law. Subordinates, if this happens, the magistrate of Cangsheng County will give us an explanation."

"But he is also responsible!" Shangguan Wanru said dissatisfied.

"Of course he will be punished. It's just that good officials are hard to find. He has been an honest and upright official. Now he is only a seventh-grade sesame official. There is no point in demoting him further. We can only let him continue to be a seventh-grade sesame official and be promoted in a few years. If you don’t have a job, do some practical things for the people." Shangguan Xuanhao explained.

The county magistrate is the blue sky above the people's heads. A good county magistrate can bring a clear sky to the people. This person's official position cannot be enough!

If the current county magistrate is a corrupt official, he will take this opportunity to chop off his head without saying anything!

The character of this county magistrate is absolutely great! Shangguan Wanru pursed her lips after hearing this. This treatment was not satisfactory.
