Chapter 229: A Fake Nun Wants to Find Out the Real Lecherous Nun
February 11th, the 11th year of Guangde, early in the morning, four or five scribes gathered together in the corridor, eagerly spreading gossip.
"Have you heard? Have you heard?"
"Yesterday, Young Master Wei quarreled with Governor Sun right after he came!"
"Really?!"
"How did it happen?!"
"Who won the argument?!"
The well-informed scribe saw that the others were so interested and started the story. Only when someone threatened to go to the judiciary office to find out what really happened did he finally talk, "At first, Young Master Wei was provoking Governor Sun, accusing him of unjustly interrupting a case..."
"What?!"
"That's ridiculous!"
"Yeah, Governor Sun is a well-known Divine Judgement in our prefecture!"
"Wait, wait!"
The scribe continued, "Young Master Wei wanted to say that Governor Sun had judged too leniently on the case of disobedience."
"That makes sense."
"Indeed, those two animals got off too easily."
"And how did Minster Sun respond?"
"Haha, Governor Sun..."
The scribe teased again, and when urged by others, he continued, "Governor Sun immediately acknowledged it, not only changing the verdict as Young Master Wei suggested but also asked Clerk Chen to write the words think carefully and be cautious and hang them in his Office."
"What? Governor Sun just surrendered like that?!"
Was he here to persuade him and Wei Rulan to reconcile?
Given his character, it was possible
Anyway, since he was here, there was no reason to avoid him.
"Bring him in."
The guard went to do as he was told, and Sun Shaozong waited for a moment before he went out to greet Jia Baoyu. They bumped into each other outside the gate of the Criminal Department, and Sun Shaozong smiled and said, "How come you came in by yourself, Brother Bao? I was just about to come out and greet you!"
In fact, his meticulous planning was a last resort.
As the "Imperial Uncle of the state," Jia Baoyu should have been greeted at the gate of the Yamen in person. But as a young boy, if he really went out to welcome him with great fanfare, he would undoubtedly leave the wrong impression of a sycophant who had no sense of propriety.
Jia Baoyu didn't think so much. He greeted Sun Shaozong and then stepped aside to reveal a slender woman who took off her hood and bowed with folded hands, saying, "Miao Yu here pays my respects to Lord Sun."
"You..."
Sun Shaozong was about to ask her why she had come, but then he remembered that he had promised her a few days ago to let her visit some pregnant nuns. So instead of asking, he joked, "As a nun, why do you need a bodyguard when you go out?"
Miao Yu bowed again and said calmly, "Just in case, I asked Young Master Bao to come as a witness."
This little nun was really straightforward.
Originally, Sun Shaozong planned to randomly arrange a few people to accompany her to visit those nuns, but since Jia Baoyu also came along, he couldn't be too casual. So he said, "Alright then, I'll take you there to take a look. But when we get there, Brother Bao shouldnt follow us inside, to prevent you from staining your eyes and ears."
Jia Baoyu hadn't said anything yet, but Miaoyu frowned and asked anxiously, "Why? Is the environment where they are now very poor?"
"If it's just a poor environment, how could it stain your ears and eyes?" Sun Shaozong smiled and said, "Anyway, you'll understand what I mean when we get there."
Miaoyu saw that he didn't want to explain further, so she didn't ask any more questions.
It was Jia Baoyu who couldn't help but pat his chest and said, "Second Brother, there's a saying that goes, After being apart for three days, one looks upon with new eyes. I have experienced so much now, so what can't I see or hear?"
Sun Shaozong thought about it and agreed. Although this matter was somewhat unsuitable for minors, Jia Baoyu could hardly be considered a "minor" in this regard.
So he said decisively, "Alright, we'll all go in and take a look later!"
