Chapter 182: A Gentleman's Word
Hearing that Yun Lao was arrested, Xiao Shuyue should still eat and drink, Mingyue was anxious to the ants on the hot pot, but Xiao Shuyue didn't care. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Looking at Xiao Shuyue sitting leisurely on the rattan chair, Mingyue was anxious, "My eldest lady, this Yun Lao was taken away by a despicable villain like Li Qi, aren't you in a hurry at all?"
Xiao Shuyue waved her hand indifferently and said: "Anla, it's okay, what kind of character is Yun Lao? Can you still be bullied by that kind of villain? Don't worry, Xiang Yun Lao's famous character, naturally someone will save him, it's okay, it's okay, the sky is falling and there are tall people on top, it's not your turn to worry!"
Looking at Xiao Shuyue's indifferent appearance, Mingyue was so angry that she almost vomited blood, but she was helpless and could not do anything, without Xiao Shuyue's order, this entire secret door would not have taken action.
On the day Yun Lao was arrested, Li Qi wanted to torture him, but he was stopped that day.
Li Qi had already brought Yun Lao to the torture room, but a person came outside, saying that he was Yun Lao's disciple and wanted to meet Yun Lao, and then Li Qi was sad, because it was the governor of Yuzhou who came to see Yun Lao, and then this Li Qi was sad, and it just so happened that this person was his top boss, could he offend him? And said that Yun Lao was his teacher? Is this something he can interrogate? Isn't this looking for his own death?
And when the governor heard that Li Qi actually wanted to torture his teacher, he was immediately angry, and the reason was a bit upside down, what kind of treason?
Do you think that there are scum like Xiao Gang in Ningyang City here, and there will be some more scum? And he also confused his own teacher with these people, and the lungs of this governor's great popularity are about to explode.
Immediately asked for a book, telling the emperor the truth, and then the emperor Long Yan was furious, this Li Qi of Ningyang City ...... didn't even have a good battle of wits and courage with Xiao Shuyue, but he was played by this governor.
And Yun Lao was also released unharmed.
In the garden, there are large patches of peony flowers, all kinds, Yun Lao watched the peonies in this house, and said with a smile: "If this woman likes it, most of them are roses, or plum blossoms and the like, so as to highlight that they are different, they are unique, you are good, only in this house to plant so many peonies, peonies are expensive, and they are not raised, I really don't understand what you think!"
Xiao Shuyue sat opposite Yun Lao, in the pavilion, looking at the peony in the courtyard in a trance: "How good it is, such a delicate flower, it can really be called the king of flowers!"
"I've never heard of such a thing!"
Xiao Shuyue smiled, didn't continue the topic, added some tea to Yun Lao, and said lightly: "I enjoyed the disaster of prison this time, how does Yun Lao feel?"
Yun Lao picked up the teacup, coughed lightly, and said helplessly: "I'm afraid you did it on purpose this time......! What's in it for you? This Ningyang City should send the city lord, won't it be sent yet? Maybe it's not a good one yet!"
"I'm afraid it's in Yun Lao's heart...... I still think that Yue Chengxian at the beginning is okay!"
Yun Lao smiled undeniably, Yue Chengxian was indeed much better than this straw bag.
But Xiao Shuyue smiled shallowly and said, "Don't worry, it won't be long before this holy decree will come down, and the position of the city lord will be mine!"
Listening to Xiao Shuyue's words, Yun Lao was a little surprised! His eyes stared at Xiao Shuyue fixedly, looked at Xiao Shuyue and asked, "What do you mean?"
Xiao Shuyue smiled: "Literally!"
Yun Lao's eyes were really bossy, and he asked, "You asked Your Majesty to hand over this Ningyang City to you, how could Your Majesty agree?"
Xiao Shuyue smiled and said, "It's just a change of concept!"
Hearing Xiao Shuyue's words, Yun Lao thought about it, and then he was a little surprised, although this woman can't enter the court as an official, but there are not a few people with ranks, and some people will be given to the county lord, the county lord and the like, some of these women will indeed have their own territory, but there is a difference...... These women are only nominal territories, but the jurisdiction of these places is not in their own hands, but there are corresponding officials, and if it is time to pay taxes in the future, except for the royal part, the rest will belong to these county lords or county lords.
And some people are just a simple title, but this Xiao Shuyue has won the title of city lord, although this city lord is not big, but Xiao Shuyue has no merit, and is still a daughter abandoned by the Marquis of Yongning, I want to make the hundred officials recognize Xiao Shuyue, the city lord, I'm afraid it is not easy, what kind of way will the emperor come up with to move this reputation to Xiao Shuyue out?
It's not Xiao Shuyue's turn to worry about this, of course, Xiao Shuyue herself doesn't want to worry about it.
And the most shocking thing in Yun Lao's heart was that sentence...... Secretly change the concept, that is to say, it is Xiao Shuyue who will really be in power in Ningyang City in the future, and not let the emperor send someone to take care of it?
Thinking of this, Yun Lao's eyes became more and more strange when he looked at Xiao Shuyue.
Women are officials, which is a few pitiful strokes in the entire history, even so, those women are all amazing and talented, how easy is it to be recognized by the entire court?
But Xiao Shuyue dared to do this?
Didn't the emperor say that Xiao Shuyue should make a request when he left? At that time, Xiao Shuyue did not make a request, but now his own request is ...... He wants to become the city lord of Ningyang City, and what he wants is real power.
After arriving at the palace in front of the secret letter, the emperor was so frightened that he almost didn't fall off the dragon chair, blowing his beard angrily and glaring, if Xiao Shuyue was in front of him, he couldn't wait to peel Xiao Shuyue and cramp.
But this is what he promised, a gentleman, not to mention that he is still the king of a country.
This is originally a debt to others, if you don't fulfill your promise, wouldn't you be untrustworthy, or you won't keep your word to a child who is a few years old.
But this child is really too lion to open her mouth a little, if it is just a simple position of city lord, she can give it to her, but what she wants is the real right to manage the jurisdiction.
This can't help but make people hesitate.
"Your Majesty...... What's wrong with you, depressed, it's not good for your body!" Looking at the emperor's sad expression, a man wearing a blue robe appeared next to the emperor, embroidered with cumbersome patterns in the middle, the fabric was extremely exquisite, holding a handful of dust in his hand, looking at the emperor, and said worriedly.
