Lord Fang and Master Jia really wanted to shake Master Tu out, but they knew very well that they would not be able to please Master Tu if they bit him out, and if Lord Tu was about to fall, there would be no one to protect them.

The two opened their mouths to speak, but they remained awake at the critical moment and paused.

Call...... Master Tu's heart was about to stop, and just as he was thinking about how to escape this crisis, Lord Fang and Master Jia spoke again, this time the two of them did not hesitate at all, and opened their mouths and said: "Yes, it is the Northern Qi people, it is the Northern Qi people who taught us to do this." ”

At the critical moment, he did not bite out Master Tu, but pushed all the faults on the head of Beiqi. Master Tu didn't show it on his face, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: It's okay for the time being!

As for after?

As long as King Qin is dead, who will have time to remember these little things.

Qin Xiaoyan didn't believe in the statement "taught by the people of Northern Qi", but Lord Fang and Master Jia rarely insisted on it, and they didn't let go of this statement, and after several forced questions, these two people refused to tell the truth, and there was no way to torture them in the autopsy room, so they had to take people down first.

The guards dragged Master Fang and Master Jia down, and the two of them did not resist, but just glanced at Lord Tu meaningfully before leaving.

Others don't understand what that glance means, but Master Tu understands: it's a request and a threat.

begging him to save the two fools, and at the same time threatening him that if he didn't save them, he would bite him out.

Master Tu lowered his head to hide the chill in his eyes, and the two fools dared to threaten him!

Young Master An's body was not in Da Qin's hands, and Qin Xiaoyan and Gu Qiancheng couldn't inspect it, so they had to fight back to the house, as for Lord Fang and Master Jia?

After all, they were officials of the imperial court, and Qin Xiaoyan did not embarrass them for the time being, only locked the two in prison, and then ordered someone to investigate the matter.

After explaining the things one by one, Qin Xiaoyan had time to look at Master Tu, who had been following and was constantly accompanying him.

"Master Tu, you can't escape the blame for such a thing happening under your rule." Qin Xiaoyan didn't believe that Master Tu was clean, but the time he had been in the border city was too short, and the border city had always been controlled by Lord Tu, and it was really not easy to find evidence of Lord Tu's crime.

"The lower officials are derelict in their duties, and please punish the prince." Master Tu was very simple, and knelt down to plead without saying a word.

"Your supervision is not good, and the officials under your rule colluded with the Northern Qi but didn't know it, this king dismissed you today, and you should reflect on it at home." Qin Shiyan was unceremonious, and took the opportunity to take over the government affairs of the border city.

The parents of the border city were dismissed, and the things in the border city naturally fell into the hands of others, and who this person was was up to Qin Xiaoyan.

I thought that Master Tu would defend a few words, or resist one or two, but he didn't ......

Master Tu only said two words symbolically, and then let the guards accept his official hat and official uniform, and cooperated throughout the whole process to the point that Qin Xiaoyan was also surprised.

Qin Shiyan frowned, and added: "Go, go with Master Tu and get the official seal back." "After taking the official seal, whether he can be reinstated in the future is still two words.

Qin Xiaoyan was waiting for Lord Tu to resist, but he didn't want Lord Tu to be stunned for a moment, so he lowered his shoulders.

Qin Shiyan is not polite, no matter what kind of calculation Master Tu makes, he will take the opportunity to take the power of the border city, as for who will be in charge of the border city in the future, he doesn't care.

Qin Xiaoyan transferred half of the guards to go with Lord Tu, not giving Lord Tu a chance to repent, and half an hour later, the guards took back Lord Tu's official seal.

"Lord Wang, Lord Tu is very cooperative, without a trace of struggle and resistance." The guards were also puzzled when they thought of Master Tu's reaction.

They are not uncommon in the capital to see dismissed officials, none of those people are dead-faced, clinging to the official seal.

After all, everyone knows that the dismissal of the official is nothing, and it is basically hopeless to take the official seal and want the official to be reinstated.

The superior will not care whether you have been wronged or not, once you have taken your official seal, you will be wronged and do not want to be reinstated, because no superior will admit that he has made a mistake, and in order to maintain his dignity and decency, even if he is wrong, he must continue to be wrong.

The official seal on Lord Tu's hand was taken away, and if he wanted to be an official, he would either be an official unless the King of Qin fell, or the King of Qin would ignore his previous suspicions, but both of these possibilities were extremely low.

Qin Xiaoyan accepted the official seal, sent the guards away, and invited Gu Qiancheng to ask, "Did you find anything wrong?" ”

"Yes, Master Tu has a problem." Especially recently, it is obvious that Master Tu has expressed Xiàn.

"Even you can see it, it can be seen that he has really gone too far." Qin Shiyan played with the official seal in his hand, and said half-seriously and half-jokingly, but in exchange for Gu Qiancheng's eyes.

What does it mean that even she can see how stupid and stupid she is? She also has brains, okay?

Qin Xiaoyan laughed painlessly, "He is so obvious, isn't he afraid of death?" ”

"It's not that I'm afraid, but I'm fearless." If you weren't bold, how dare you come up with a trick to deceive King Qin with a fake corpse.

"Fearless? Forcing the emperor to support him? Qin Xiaoyan tapped on the table, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "With the emperor's support, he doesn't have the courage yet." ”

The emperor's favored ministers can still spoil him, the emperor's eldest grandson.

"King Zhao, King Zhou, or Northern Qi. If Master Tu is just the emperor's person, he doesn't have the courage to fool you. "At least not on the surface.

"Hmm." Qin Shiyan nodded, "Recently, the Northern Qi people have been frequently in and out of the border city, and someone must have responded to it. "Nine times out of ten, the person who responds is Lord Tu, even if it is not Lord Tu, then Lord Tu must also know.

Master Tu is a parent official in the border city, and he has been operating in the border city for decades, and he has long operated the officialdom of the border city like an iron bucket, and no one can penetrate it.

After seven or eight days of investigation, they learned that Master Tu in the border city was the emperor of the soil, and he dared not disobey what he said, and all the local officials who had two thoughts with him were forced to leave.

When the Northern Qi people came to the border city, they must be related to him.

"Is it him, let's just throw out a bait, and naturally there will be fish on the hook to help you get things done." Gu Qiancheng picked up the official seal on the table and played with it casually.

Qin Shiyan smiled, and immediately understood what Gu Qiancheng meant: "The internal fight is indeed faster than this king's investigation, and this king wants to see if the officialdom of the border city is really like a monolith and cannot be shaken." ”

"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, let alone officialdom. As long as you throw out the position of governor of the border city, there will be more people bumping into you, and maybe there will be unexpected gains. "People die for money, birds die for death, and it is not surprising that officials go crazy for official positions.

"Let's wait and see how many cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods there are in this city." Qin Shiyan took the official seal in Gu Qiancheng's hand, and hit the table with a "bang", just ......

Before Qin Xiaoyan could release the news, Master Tu took the first step......
