Chapter 259 A pile of robes in the carriage is about to be exposed
Prime Minister Li suddenly froze, leaning on his crutches...
"Imperial Physician, please think of another solution. Zheng'er still has to take the imperial examination in the future."
Although the imperial court did not explicitly order people with crutches not to be allowed to take the imperial examinations, as an official appointed by the imperial court, one still had to consider their appearance.
If he uses crutches, even if Zheng'er passes the exam, he will have no hope of promotion in the future. At most, he can be a minor official and will never see the emperor's face in his life.
The doctor shook his head. "Your Excellency, I have tried my best. The Second Young Master's leg was broken so badly that no one can save him even if you ask the whole Imperial Hospital. But no matter what, at least he doesn't have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. This is a blessing in disguise. I hope you can look at it more positively."
After the imperial physician said this, Prime Minister Li knew that there was no hope. Feeling sad and anxious, he glared at Yang Manman angrily.
The latter seemed to be burned by the gaze, and his eyes shrank back, not daring to look at Prime Minister Li again.
She didn't expect things to turn out like this at first. If she had known this, she would just not let Li Zheng go up. Li Zheng couldn't get it anyway.
"Someone, tie her up for me!" Prime Minister Li pointed at Yang Manman angrily and said sternly.
"No, why are you tying me up? This is really not my fault!"
Yang Manman struggled and pushed away the servant who came forward, but since Prime Minister Li had already spoken, the servants naturally did as they were told and would not let her go.
Soon, Yang Manman was tied up with ropes.
Prime Minister Li went in to check on the unconscious Li Zheng, handed him over to the imperial physician and several servants, and then had someone escort Yang Manman directly to Duke Yang's mansion.
The lantern festival has not ended yet, and the streets are bustling with people coming and going. Yang Manman, tied up with ropes like this, is really an eye-catcher.
Many people pointed and talked.
Yang Manman was both embarrassed and angry, her whole face turned red. She struggled hard, trying to break free from the ropes, but to no avail.
She finally opened her mouth to apologize to Prime Minister Li, but it was too late. Prime Minister Li just looked at her coldly and told her to continue.
Jiang Suining, Chu Jingyue and the others had almost finished their tour and were about to leave when they suddenly heard a noisy noise, and then saw Yang Manman being escorted.
Several people stood on the side of the road and watched Yang Manman approach.
"It seems that Li Zheng was seriously injured, and Prime Minister Li already knows that this matter is related to Yang Manman." Jiang Suining said.
Otherwise, Prime Minister Li would not have done such a shameless thing and had Yang Manman tied up and paraded through the streets.
Chu Jingyue raised her eyebrows and said, "You deserve it."
Yang Manman had already offended Prime Minister Li because of the previous engagement with the Lu family, and now she has caused Li Zheng to be injured. She is really courting death.
Yang Manman also saw Jiang Suining and the others, and she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into immediately.
Chu Jingyue, Jiang Suining and the others must be laughing at themselves in their hearts!
Yang Manman gritted her teeth and lowered her head, not wanting to look at their gazes. She felt in her heart that this was the situation she could not accept the most.
However, what she didn't know, what she couldn't accept, was already waiting behind her and would arrive soon...
After passing through the crowded crowd and arriving at the carriage parking area, Prime Minister Li got on the carriage and only let Yang Manman continue walking to Duke Yang's Mansion.
After the people left, Jiang Suining and the others also withdrew their gazes.
"It's getting late, why don't we go?" Jiang Suining said.
Chu Jingyue nodded, "Okay, we've almost finished browsing, but Sui Ning, if you come to Guangyun Tower to pick out paintings later, remember to show them to me."
Jiang Suining responded with a smile, and several people walked out of the crowd.
Chu Jingyue and his friends first arrived at where the carriage was parked, but found that the wheels of the carriage were damaged somehow.
"Maybe there are too many people and carriages today, and I don't know who crashed it." Chu Changhe said after checking it out.
"What should I do? Can I hire a carriage around here? I'm tired and don't want to walk back." Chu Jingyue frowned.
"You can take my carriage." Jiang Suining said.
"Sui Ning, then why are you..."
"I'll just send Sui Ning back." Shen Yanxi took over Chu Jingyue's words.
Turning his gaze to Shen Yanxi, Chu Jingyue smiled and said, "Okay."
Just think of it as giving Shen Yanxi and Sui Ning more opportunities to spend time together.
With Shen Yanxi around, Chu Jingyue had no worries and soon arrived outside Jiang Suining's carriage. After they said goodbye, Chu Jingyue and Chu Changhe left in Jiang Suining's carriage.
Jiang Suining and Shen Yanxi walked side by side to where the Shen Mansion's carriage was parked.
The two chatted about some recent events in the Hanlin Academy and shared some gossip. Although they were not walking fast, it didn't take long before they arrived at where Shen Yanxi's carriage was parked.
Shen Yanxi was in a very good mood tonight. He was about to let Jiang Suining get on the carriage when he suddenly saw Yuan Liang winking at him.
He was confused and was about to speak directly when he noticed Yuanliang pointing at the robe he was wearing, and he reacted immediately.
There is a carriage full of robes in this carriage!
Shen Yanxi's hand, which was about to lift the car curtain, froze in mid-air.
Jiang Suining looked at him puzzledly, "Is there any problem?"
"I..." Shen Yanxi hesitated, "I, my carriage seems to be broken too."
Jiang Suining was stunned for a moment, then looked carefully at the car body and the tracks.
"It looks good, there shouldn't be any problem."
Shen Yanxi frowned. The carriage was indeed in good condition, but could he tell Sui Ning that everything in the carriage were the clothes he had specially prepared today?
In this way, Sui Ning would know that today's coincidence and fate were artificially created.
But people have already arrived at the carriage. If they are not allowed to get on, there must be a reason.
Shen Yanxi was speechless for a rare moment and could only wink at Yuan Liang.
The latter looked at his own son helplessly.
What else could he do? He couldn't just say that the young master suddenly didn't want to send Miss Jiang home anymore!
Scratching his head, Yuanliang said with gritted teeth.
"Well, Miss Jiang, our young master's carriage is not comfortable to sit in, why don't you let our young master walk you there."
"Yes, Sui Ning, I was in a hurry to leave the house today and the carriage was not prepared. Why don't I walk with you for a while and then hire a new carriage." Shen Yanxi also said immediately.
Jiang Suining looked at Shen Yanxi suspiciously. Something was wrong. Something was really wrong.
Could it be that there was something wrong with the carriage, or was there something he didn't want her to see?
Jiang Suining thought to himself that if this was the case, there was no need to force him.
The word "OK" was on the tip of his tongue, but Jiang Suining paused when he was about to say it.
She suddenly became very curious about what could make Shen Yanxi nervous.
After thinking for a while, she said, "It doesn't matter if the carriage is not cleaned up. It's only a short distance anyway."
"But I want to take a walk. Why don't we take a stroll and walk around for a while?" Shen Yanxi said.
As long as they left the carriage, Yuanliang could take the clothes out of the carriage.
Jiang Suining looked at him, his curiosity growing stronger, and replied: "But I'm tired."
