Chapter 236 Fairness and Integrity
Chapter 236 Fairness and Integrity
Shen Yanfeng: "Since you know that you are not clean, why don't you reject me, and seduce me in various ways?"
Jiang Sujin: "What is your Highness talking about? You were an exiled criminal, so why would I seduce you?"
"If the prince hadn't raped me at night, I probably wouldn't even have seen you."
Shen Yanfeng gritted his teeth and panted heavily, saying: "I was fooled by you at the beginning, otherwise I would not be so reckless."
Jiang Sujin heard this and her thoughts instantly drifted back to a distant place: "Although the prince at that time was reckless and impulsive, he made my concubine's heart move."
"The prince now seems strange and arrogant, as if he has thorns all over his body and wants to stab me at any time."
Shen Yanfeng: "That's because I was fooled by you later, and now I am just sober and know the tricks of women like you, so I don't want to be fooled by you again."
Jiang Sujin couldn't help but sneer when she heard this: "I am the princess, the wife of the prince. It is normal for us to sleep in the same bed. How can it be confusing?"
"If Your Majesty doesn't like those things, he can just ignore me. Why do you have to speak rudely?"
Shen Yanfeng was so embarrassed by Jiang Sujin's retort that he blushed. She was sharp-tongued and every word she said left him with no way out. It was true that this woman was not simple.
"I really shouldn't have bothered with you." After saying that, he suddenly turned and left.
Jiang Sujin took a deep breath, then picked up the chopsticks to eat, but found that she was not hungry at all.
She ate just two bites and then ordered her servants to take away all the food.
The days were becoming more and more boring, and she really wanted to just leave now so that she wouldn't be angry all the time.
Shen Yanfeng toured Yazhou yesterday, and today he officially checked the official documents. After finishing these, he checked the general ledger of the Yazhou treasury.
It turned out that although Yazhou was not a big place, it had all the necessary facilities.
All kinds of trade here are covered, and they can be completely self-sufficient. In addition, they can also be sold to Donggang and even the whole Dawei.
What's more important is that these industries were all established by Jiang Sujin, and she is also in charge of the management, so she was not bragging this morning.
It seems that this woman is quite capable, but it's a pity that she is not a law-abiding person.
If she could behave herself, he could treat her with respect.
After checking these, he went to the Ministry of Justice prison, but after inspecting the record book, he found a problem.
So he punished the assistant minister in charge of the Ministry of Justice and had him locked up directly.
After Jiang Sujin learned about this, she couldn't help but frown.
She knew that Lord Li, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice, was indeed a careless person, but he was a rare fair and honest person.
She felt very uncomfortable when she thought that such a good official was going to be executed by Shen Yanfeng.
So, at noon she waited for Shen Yanfeng to come back before asking the servants to start preparing the dishes.
As soon as Shen Yanfeng entered the front hall, Jiang Sujin hurriedly stood up to greet him.
"The prince is back?"
Shen Yanfeng was a little confused by her sudden enthusiasm. What tricks was this woman trying to play?
Shen Yanfeng looked at her sullenly, then sat down at the dining table.
Jiang Sujin asked Caiyue to serve the food to the prince quickly, and she sat next to Shen Yanfeng.
Shen Yanfeng glanced at her, then picked up his chopsticks and started eating. He was really hungry.
Jiang Sujin glanced at him, then picked up the chopsticks and helped him pick up a piece of braised pork.
"This braised pork is fat but not greasy. Please try it, Your Majesty!"
Shen Yanfeng glanced at her sideways, then said unhappily: "Just say what you want to say. This prince hates beating around the bush the most."
Jiang Sujin lowered her eyes when she heard this: "Lord Li is just a little careless, but he is quite fair and honest. I hope the prince will forgive him."
Shen Yanfeng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this: "Why? You know him so well?"
Jiang Sujin raised her eyelids and looked at her: "There are only a few officials in total, and I have also been in contact with them when you were away, so I naturally know something about them."
Shen Yanfeng recalled that Lord Li from the Ministry of Justice was quite a handsome man.
Could it be that she had hooked up with him again during the time he was away, which is why she reacted so strongly after learning that he was punished?
"Know something, how much do you know? Is it external or internal?"
There was something else behind Shen Yanfeng's words, so it was impossible for Jiang Sujin not to understand.
She looked at him sullenly, then couldn't help but grit her teeth and said, "Public is public and private is private. Why do you have to think about everything in that way?"
Shen Yanfeng: "That's because before you got married, you secretly agreed to spend your life with a man, and then you faked your death and ran to the Bamboo Sea to marry someone else. With these precedents, it's really hard for me to trust your character."
Jiang Sujin couldn't help but slam the table when she heard that. "If you insist on saying that, then I have no way to defend myself."
"Even so, I still have to tell you that if Lord Li is dismissed, the Yazhou Criminal Department will become chaotic and there will be no fairness or justice from now on."
"I said this not for myself, nor for Lord Li, but for the people of Yazhou." After saying this, she stood up and left.
Shen Yanfeng stared at her back with eyes wide open. She was really powerful. She either slapped him or slammed the table at him.
Naturally, Shen Yanfeng was almost pissed off by her, so much so that Jiang Sujin didn't see him at dinner time.
Jiang Sujin was in a bad mood, so she only ate a few bites of dinner and went to rest.
I don’t know if Jiang Sujin’s words worked, but Lord Li was released the next day. However, he could be spared the death penalty, but he could not escape the punishment of living punishment.
Shen Yanfeng deducted half a year's salary from Lord Li, which could be considered a small punishment but a great warning.
Shen Yanfeng was naturally very angry when he saw Jiang Sujin like that that day, but her words still touched him a little.
Afterwards, he visited some islanders in disguise. After knowing that Lord Li was indeed fair and honest, his impression of Lord Li finally changed.
At the same time, he sent people to investigate whether Lord Li and the princess had an affair, and found that they seemed to have only met once.
And he was also at the scene at that time, but he had lost his memory, so he forgot about these things.
After Jiang Sujin knew this, she felt relieved and felt a little more relaxed.
In order to relax herself, Jiang Sujin chose to soak in the hot springs in the mountains.
Before she went into the water, she saw the surface of the hot spring was shaking. She thought it was the wind, so she didn't take it seriously and went in directly.
