Chapter 32: The Truth

Just when Su Hequn was secretly happy in his heart and could finally invite credit, he was suddenly shouted by Xiao Ziyi, "Master Su is so powerful!" "Interrupted. Su Hequn saw that the person who spoke was dressed in white brocade, eight feet tall, dignified, and heroic.

At the same time when Su Hequn looked at Xiao Ziyi, Xie Peng said: "Bold, I don't bow when I see King Cheng!" ”

Su Hequn said, "Hmph, you treat me as a three-year-old child?" His Royal Highness King Cheng will come to such a small place as Liancheng County? ”

Xiao Ziyi sneered: "Emperor Xuan's edict!" ”

I saw Ye Long take out a yellow brocade cloth from his arms and read respectfully: "Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the city, thanks to the grace of heaven, by the mountains and rivers, Wanrui Baixiang." According to the will of God, spit out the old and accept the new. Xiao Ziyi, the king of Cheng, is hereby appointed as an inspector to supervise the construction of the north of the town, and it is cheap to exercise wherever he goes! ”

Seeing this, Su Hequn hurriedly led everyone to kneel down and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live!" ”

After Ye Long put away his hand, Su Hequn also stood up, only to see him bow to Xiao Ziyi and say, "Xiaguan has seen King Cheng!" Xiao Ziyi didn't raise his eyes and looked at the fan in his hand and said, "You're welcome!" ”

Su Hequn saw that his face had been torn, so there was nothing to taboo, so he said: "Your Royal Highness King Cheng, you have also seen that such children build houses and residences here without land deeds, this is embezzling public property, do you want to cover up"

"Presumptuous! King Cheng is also slanderous by you? Gu Changming shouted. Then he said to An Li: "Take out the token!"

An Li paused and thought of the token that Gu Changming gave her money, and hurriedly showed it to Su Hequn with a disguise in his hand.

Xiao Ziyi sneered and said: "The construction of Liancheng is related to the fortune of the country, so the matter is so big, I don't see you have any financial and human support, this king is looking for talents to help Liancheng County build, what's the matter?" You still don't have an opinion! Could it be that you can't build Liancheng County? Do you want my night country to be unlucky? ”

"Xia Guan didn't dare, Xia Guan just fulfilled his duties, where the land was built must be completed in the yamen to go through the formalities before the construction could begin, Xia Guan did not expect His Royal Highness King Cheng to have this new idea!" Su Hequn tried to lead the troubled waters to King Cheng.

An Qian calculated that there were only a few sets of large courtyards sold today, even if they only paid half of the price, plus the No. 2 and No. 3 residences, how could the funds recovered exceed 50,000 taels of silver. An Li hurriedly stepped forward and whispered beside Xiao Ziyi: "The funds are in place, and you can go to apply for the title deed now." ”

Xiao Ziyi looked at Gu Changming when he heard this: "Since Master Su thinks that this law is inappropriate, then you will take someone to the county government to handle the land deed now." Then he turned his head to look at Su Hequn and said, "Master Su, do you think this is good?" ”

Su Hequn looked at the backs of Gu Changming and Wen Chuan and said embarrassedly: "It's best to be yourself!" ”

"Master Su, look at this," Xiao Ziyi said, looking at the contract in Su Hequn's hand.

Su Hequn handed the contract back to An Lidao: "The next official retires!" Then he led the people and left.

An Li was holding the contract and thinking, the official level crushed people to death, this Guo Jinghai's county order is not a good thing. If you want to say that it is the emperor's son, it is reliable! One person above and ten thousand below! Just when An Li was distracted, Guo Jinghai hurried over, and An Li really couldn't help but chatter.

Guo Jinghai walked in front of Xiao Ziyi and said while saluting, "Xiaguan has seen King Cheng", Xiao Ziyi hugged Guo Jinghai and said: "Uncle, don't be like this, you have always been the leader in my heart!" ”

"Dingbei Hou is already a matter of the past, and the lower official is now the county commander of Liancheng County," Guo Jinghai said with a humble attitude.

An Li heard this and said in his heart, uncle? Dingbei Hou? Wow, the royal relatives are not small. Degraded from Dingbei Hou to a county order? There must be something here, but if there is something, it must not be your own business, curiosity kills the cat, it is important to flash people quickly, it is not good to know more confidential things, thinking of this, An Li hurriedly came out and said: "Why don't the two adults go in and talk?" ”

Xiao Ziyi also felt that it was a matter of confidentiality and intended to have a good talk with Guo Jinghai in private, so he led a group of people to the VIP room under the guidance of An Li. An Li made tea and withdrew. Xie Peng and Ye Long were guarding the door of the VIP room, leaving Xiao Ziyi and Guo Jinghai alone in the room.

Xiao Ziyi sat on the couch and said: "It is rumored that Concubine Li framed you and was demoted to Liancheng County, I have privately verified this matter, and I plan to unite with the ministers of the DPRK and China to write to the emperor that my uncle will not be aggrieved!" Xiao Ziyi said to Guo Jinghai sincerely.

"King Cheng, it doesn't have to be like this. The events of that year have passed over time, and it is meaningless to pursue them," Guo Jinghai said while sitting on the sofa

"My father knew that I would investigate the matter of the year again, so he appointed me as an inspection envoy to supervise the construction of Jiangbei in Liancheng County, which means that my father has the intention of recovering you, why should you" Xiao Ziyi didn't finish his words, so he saw Guo Jinghai stand up excitedly and said: "Your Majesty, the emperor asked you to come?" ”

"Yes, my father will also let me bring this to you" said Xiao Ziyi took out a bamboo tube more than two fingers wide from his sleeve, and the opening was also sealed with wax. Xiao Ziyi thought that his father must have also been suspicious of the events of that year, and it is estimated that most of the letters sent to Guo Jinghai were letters such as appeasement.

Guo Jinghai took the bamboo tube and urgently opened it and poured out the Jinpa inside, and after reading it in a hurry, he looked at it carefully. said to Xiao Ziyi: "The emperor is afraid that you will be impulsive and bad, so let me tell you the truth." ”

"The truth?" Xiao Ziyi looked at Guo Jinghai in surprise.

"In fact, the emperor knew about the events of that year, and the emperor deliberately did it to be demoted to the city and county order. When Concubine Li took advantage of the envoy of Ugin to visit the night land, she found someone to imitate my handwriting and wrote a letter intended to befriend Ugin and send it to Ugin Season, and deliberately let the envoy of Ugin accidentally leave it in front of the public, and I was imprisoned in Dali Temple that night.

"Why?" Xiao Ziyi wondered.

"Since the death of Empress Qin, Concubine Li has begun to cultivate her own strength and win over the forces of various ministries. I have always been in charge of the night region's soldiers and horses, and my power is entrenched in the entire northwest border. Concubine Li has long regarded me as a thorn in the flesh. She has been coveting the military power in the northwest for a long time. In the final analysis, he just wants to support his son King Rui as the crown prince.

The emperor asked me to admit this crime, first, there have been constant wars on the Xiliang border in the past two years, and I have to rely on her brother Hao Zhandong to guard the frontier, so it is not easy to tear my face with her, and second, the emperor intends to let me quietly enter Liancheng County and have no excuse. Guo Jinghai said.
