When Xia Liangdong hurriedly got up and saluted, Qin Tan was already sitting on the chair opposite him unceremoniously. diea.

"It's a great appetizer. It's hearty. Lord Xia's life is very moist. I'm afraid this table of wine and food will cost two taels of silver, right? It's worth half a month's food for ordinary people. Qin Tan looked at the dishes on the table and said.

"Xiaguan Xia Liangdong has seen Qin Wugongzi. I don't know if you are here, it is really rude, and I invite the fifth son Haihan. Son, please sit wide, the lower official immediately called the shopkeeper to add food and wine, and the lower official toasted the fifth prince with a few glasses of wine to show respect and make amends! Xia Liangdong's excited face was crooked, and he said in a loud voice.

I don't know how many officials there are in the court of the Great Song Dynasty, no matter how big or small the official position is, except for a very small number of officials, who doesn't know the prestige of the Qin Prime Minister, and who doesn't want to climb the big backer of the Qin Mansion. Xia Liangdong is one of the people who dreams of climbing the tall branch of Qin Xiang. It's a pity that he is just a middle-level general of the forbidden army in the Zhonghu Army, and there are so many officials of his rank in Lin'an City, how can he climb high. Of course, he had seen Qin Tan and knew Qin Tan's name. However, Qin Tan is a towering figure that he can't climb. But today, Qin Tan actually appeared in his box, which made Xia Liangdong very excited, and at the same time, he was a little surprised and apprehensive in his heart. He sensed as if something was going to happen, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.

"No need, Lord Xia, I'm not here to drink. I'm here to talk to you. Qin Tan waved his hand and looked at Xia Liangdong and said.

"Yes, yes, what is the matter with the fifth son, but please command. The humble duty is determined to go to the soup and die. Xia Liangdong nodded again and again.

"What do you say, I want you to go to the soup and do something. Lord Xia, sit down and talk. I don't feel comfortable standing like this. Qin Tan smiled.

Xia Liangdong nodded hurriedly in response, leaned over and sat on the chair opposite, looking at Qin Tan with a smile on his face full of anticipation, waiting for Qin Tan's words.

"Lord Xia, I've heard your name a lot lately. You're famous. Qin Tan said with a smile.

Xia Liangdong was stunned and said, "What does the fifth prince mean by this? Liangdong District District Defense Officer, where will he be famous? ”

"No, you're famous, aren't you? I heard your name from my grandfather the day before yesterday. Who my grandfather is, I don't need to introduce it to you. ”

"Huh? Did Qin Xiang mention the name of the lower official? How is this possible. It's just below, how can Qin Xiang know me. Xia Liangdong was surprised, but also delighted.

"Recently, the imperial court has been preparing to strictly enforce discipline and rectify the rule of officials. Does Lord Xia know? Qin Tan said suddenly.

Qin Tan's thinking jumped so much that Xia Liangdong couldn't keep up, he didn't know what it had to do with him.

"The rank of the lower officials is low, how can they know the major affairs of the imperial court. The lower officials did not know about this. Xia Liangdong said with a smile.

Qin Tan said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you don't know, to put it simply, there are many people who have been playing the court recently, saying that the court is up and down, and some officials in and outside the capital are very disagreeable, which makes the people resentful." The imperial court also felt that it was necessary to rectify it, so the emperor and my grandfather discussed to arrest a group of officials who misbehaved and punish them, so as to enforce discipline and make the people angry. Degrade a group, depose a group, kill a group! ”

Qin Tan made a gesture of slamming down with his palm, Xia Liangdong shrank his neck in fright, and his scalp was a little numb. Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong. Qin Tan said to himself, what is this for?

"Someone drew up a list and reported it to my grandfather with evidence of their corruption. My grandfather used to gather officials for a while to discuss what to do with them. I've heard a few ears on the side, and I've heard your name as Lord Xia, and it seems to be among them. Qin Tan said lightly.

Xia Liangdong was like five thunderbolts, so frightened that he slipped directly from the chair, and then knelt on the ground and crawled in front of Qin Tan and kowtowed: "Wronged, fifth son, the lower officials have never done anything corrupt and perverted the law, Qin Xiangye is clear, but he must not wronged a good person." ”

Qin Tan said coldly: "Wronged a good person? To tell you the truth, I have seen all the files of those officials doing bad things. What did you Lord Xia do, don't you think no one knows? You withheld the salaries of the soldiers, extorted money from the people, and abused the soldiers under your command, didn't you? ”

Xia Liangdong was frightened, and shouted repeatedly: "The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials don't dare, don't believe this, the fifth prince, this is all someone else's rumor." If you don't believe the fifth son, you can go to my yamen to investigate."

Qin Tan sneered: "What's the matter with me? Can I go to investigate? You say it's a rumor, then it's a rumor. You name it. Anyway, that's what it says in that dossier, and if there's any wrong, it's useless for you to tell me. I don't care about your. ”

"Fifth son, fifth son, please be gracious and intercede with Prime Minister Qin for the lower officials. If Xia Guan can save Xia Guan's life, the fifth son will be Xia Guan's reborn parents. The lower officials are willing to obey the drive of the fifth prince. Please, Fifth Son. Xia Liangdong kowtowed like pounding garlic, and he was already scared.

Qin Tan glanced at him with disdain, sighed and said, "Lord Xia, why did your Dao Master come to see you today?" Of course, I'm not here to scare you, I'm here to save you. Your business is not really a big deal, as long as my grandfather burns your file, nothing will happen. For my grandfather, it was a no-brainer. Some things may affect your net worth and life, but in my grandfather's opinion, it is as easy as blowing a breath and blowing off a handful of dust. Do you understand? ”

When Xia Liangdong heard this, he was overjoyed. Qin Tan actually came to save himself, although it was a little unbelievable, but this was obviously a big surprise.

"Ask the fifth prince to be kind and save the life of the next official. Lower Officials"

"If you get it, you don't have to swear by gambling curses, and I don't need you to be a cow or a horse, go to the soup or something. There are more people who want to be cattle and horses for my Qin family, and it is not your turn to be Lord Xia. It's actually very simple, and for me, it's a simple effort. However," Qin Tan frowned, as if there was something unspeakable.

"Fifth son, you say, if you have any orders, just say it." Xia Liangdong said busily.

"It's nothing. There's a new master in your yamen, isn't it? Qin Tan asked lightly.

"Yes, yes. His name is Fang Zi'an. How? Is the fifth prince familiar with him? Xia Liangdong nodded and said busily.

"Cooked, cooked can't be cooked. He and I were both first-class jinshi, and I was the second in the palace test, and he was the third. It can be said that he is a colleague in the same year. Hehehehehe. Qin Tan said with a smile.

Xia Liangdong chuckled in his heart, and was shocked in his heart. Could it be that Qin Wugongzi and Fang Zi'an are friends? If that's the case, wouldn't you have stabbed a hornet's nest? No wonder Fang Zi'an is so tough, it turns out that there is such a backer. I was blind, and I actually did it with him. Now it's a problem.

Xia Liangdong felt remorseful in his heart, and he couldn't wait to slap his two mouths.

"That Fang Zi'an, did you get along with him?" Qin Tan smiled and said coldly.

"I don't know that he is your friend, and I will definitely apologize to him when I turn around. From now on, he will listen to him in some matters in the yamen. Xia Liangdong shouted in a trembling voice.

Qin Tan looked at Xia Liangdong with a strange expression, and immediately burst out laughing. Xia Liangdong panicked in his heart, craned his neck and looked at Qin Tan laughing, at a loss. Qin Tan's laughter gradually stopped, and he shook his head and said, "He's my friend?" Hahaha, I can't afford to be a friend like him. Fang Zi'an, hehe, he's not my friend. He's the one I hate. Xia Liangdong, this son doesn't go around the bend with you, this Fang Zi'an is the person who wants to get rid of him, and this son has had a big holiday with him. Now that he is an official in your yamen, my son wants to ask you for a small favor. If you help with this, my son will ensure that you will survive the matter of clearing up the rulers in peace. Not only will it ensure that you are fine, but it will also ensure that you will be promoted and make a fortune. ”

When Xia Liangdong heard this, he was surprised and delighted. In just a few moments, he had already experienced several shocks and surprises. But this time it was the joy that made him the happiest. It turned out that Fang Zi'an was the enemy of the fifth prince, which was too unexpected.

"It turns out that he is the enemy of the fifth prince, so I said that this person is not a thing, and he is extremely arrogant. The dog thing actually dared to offend even the fifth son. ”

Qin Tan said coldly: "Nonsense, Hugh Ti, I only ask you, do you promise to do me a small favor." ”

Xia Liangdong said: "I don't know what the fifth prince wants me to do?" ”

Qin Tan looked at him with disgust: "I asked you if you agreed, do you want me to say it first?" If I say it, you will have to say yes if you don't agree. ”

When Xia Liangdong heard this, he said categorically: "Of course the lower official agrees, but the fifth prince please command." ”

Qin Tan nodded, smiled and whispered, "You killed him for me." ”

The next morning, Fang Zi'an went to the yamen for a spin first. Unexpectedly, when Fang Zi Anchen arrived, the people in the public houses of the yamen had already arrived. Usually the people who arrived in a sparse manner after the end of the day, all of them arrived today before the hour.

Fang Zi sneered secretly in Anxin. His own commotion still had an effect, although Xia Liangdong had not yet succumbed, and those people still looked at him with the same fierce disgust, but they didn't dare to confront him head-on.

Xia Liangdong's attitude somehow made a 180-degree turn. When Fang Zi'an left the yamen and went to the Qiantang Gate Wanghuo Tower to station, Xia Liangdong actually came forward with a smile and said a few words.

"Lord Fang, you don't actually have to suffer this sin. If you don't follow your wishes, let Li Dalong and Lei Hu take their place temporarily. You are the head of the yamen, and you are also one of the chief officials, so why bother to act for you personally. I didn't think about it yesterday, and I thought about it all night, and this thing is not appropriate. Although there is some friction between the two of us, we have to work together after all, and we still have to reconcile and understand each other after all, right? ”

When Fang Zi'an heard this, he was also a little happy in his heart. In fact, there is no need for me to fight with Xia Liangdong. If Xia Liangdong can really change sex, it is not that he can't get along with him. Fang Zi'an has no habit of cleanliness, and he will not insist on not having contact with Xia Liangdong because of his misbehavior. Fang Zi'an is not the kind of naïve and ignorant person. As long as things develop according to his own assumptions, as long as the things in this yamen are not so smoky and not too excessive, Fang Zi'an will not fight with people with a dead brain.

It's just that Xia Liangdong is really saying from his heart, or is it a contrary word to ease the relationship, or is it just a fake politeness. Fang Zi'an felt that it remained to be seen.
