At dusk, the royal family's mansion, in the back hall.

There are several plates of dishes on the dining table, which are not exquisite, but they are rich, and they are only for Wang Shouen to eat. Even if there are starving bones on the road, for people like Wang Shouen, the amount of food and clothing has never been reduced, but they enjoy it to the fullest. Zhumen wine and meat, nothing more than that.

While moving the chopsticks, I listened to the steward's report. Listening to his description of the "lively" scene in front of the government, his eyes continued to shine.

"At the persuasion of the high judge, the petitioning crowd has dispersed." The steward whispered.

"High defense is out of the horse, but it is also reasonable!" After chewing a few bites of meat, Wang Shouen nodded, and said with a smile on his eyebrows: "I was appeased by him today, and I see how he should reply tomorrow and settle this matter!" ”

Seeing Wang Shouen's gloating villain's face, the steward stopped talking, but he couldn't help but say: "Master, the old servant really doesn't understand, what is your intention in doing this?" Those hooligans and small people, where can they persecute the government and annoy His Royal Highness the prince, but they are afraid that their lives will not be guaranteed. You're behind it, and if you're discovered, I'm afraid disaster won't be far away......"

"Nonsense!" Hearing this, Wang Shouen immediately reprimanded: "The reason why I am doing this is because I am concerned about the embarrassment of the officials and people in the city and the lack of support, this is to ask for the people's lives." In the past, when natural disasters occurred, the imperial court also ordered the government to provide relief, but this time, they just want to get back their own goods, shouldn't they? ”

Seeing that Wang Shouen's face was "righteous", he said it in a high-sounding manner, but the steward was also an old man who had followed him for many years, and he knew the master's habits very well. He wanted to give another advice, but he heard Wang Shouen's strong order: "Inform our people, go to the government tomorrow to ask for advice." Let them rest assured that they are all right today, and there will be no danger tomorrow! ”

"Yes!" But seeing Wang Shouen stubbornly dying, the old servant knew that he could not be persuaded, so he could only sigh helplessly.

Wang Shouen, on his side, looked proud, and read to himself: "Most of the money in the treasury has been rewarded by the army, I want to see how I will deal with this turbulent public opinion!" ”

"If you can't help it, use troops to suppress it, and kill a few more people, it will be even more interesting. What kind of military discipline is strict, Qiu has not committed any crimes, so much wealth, it is not for himself, and it is used to buy people's hearts. Humph......"

"As for me, what can I do?" Touching his beard, Wang Shouen muttered a little arrogantly and continued his dinner.

As it turns out, flags can't be set up randomly. Wang Shouen's meal, before he finished eating, was interrupted by an uninvited guest. Dozens of fierce men, like bandits, broke into the palace and quickly took control of the entire mansion, all dressed in ordinary linen clothes, but apparently a group of soldiers.

"Xiang Xun!" Looking at Xiang Xun who came to the hall, Wang Shouen said angrily: "You are so bold, you dare to lead someone to break into the official's mansion!" ”

Xiang Xun walked to Wang Shouen with great grace, moved slowly, glanced at most of the dishes left on the food table, and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that Wang Inspector ate so well, His Royal Highness's coarse and simple meals every day are not as good as your eleven!" ”

"What do you want to do?" Glancing at the Changyi soldiers who were following Xiang Xun and guarding in front of the hall, Wang Shouen had a calm face and asked in a cold voice.

He looked calm, but his rapid breathing betrayed his nervousness.

"What do you say?" Xiang Xun looked at Wang Shouen and asked rhetorically.

A little afraid to look directly into Xiang Xun's eyes, Wang Shouen looked away with a weak heart: "How do I know." ”

"Hey......" Xiang Xun sighed and asked with a puzzled face: "I am really curious in my heart, why did the Wang Inspector make waves and secretly do that sneaky thing. If the party is in chaos and the people's hearts are lost, what good will it do you? ”

"I don't know what you're talking about!" The corners of his mouth twitched, and Wang Shouen brushed his sleeve and snorted coldly, in order to hide the apprehension in his heart.

"That's it! Wang Inspector was reluctant to say it, and he did not force his humble position. Xiang Xun didn't seem to have the intention of getting to the bottom of it, and said lightly: "By the way, I came here to take your life!" ”

"You dare!" Wang Shouen smiled when he heard this.

"Do you think you dare to be lowly?" Xiang Xun laughed with him.

Seeing that Xiang Xun seemed to be coming for real, a trace of panic flashed on Wang Shouen's face: "Your Highness will not agree!" ”

"Why do you think you dare to come to the door like this?" Xiang Xun asked faintly.

"Impossible! I am the hero of Luzhou's righteousness, he didn't dare to kill me, kill me, how did he face the world's verbal criticism? Wang Shouen suddenly became anxious and exclaimed.

"Wang Inspector, it seems that he takes himself too seriously......"

Seeing that Xiang Xun was already a little impatient in his tone, Wang Shouen suddenly said loudly: "My father is King Han!" ”

The voice echoed in the hall for a while, but Xiang Xun was silent for a while, and then laughed disdainfully: "Wang Inspection, wouldn't it be because of his family background that he dared to act so recklessly and unscrupulously......

"Remind you, King Han, it's been dead for years. Moreover, when today's surname is Liu! ”

After speaking, Xiang Xun had no interest in talking nonsense with him, and beckoned to his subordinates: "Let's do it, send Wang to inspect the road as soon as possible!" ”

Under the order, two of his subordinates immediately stepped forward quickly and held Wang Shouen up.

Seeing this posture, Wang Shouen was completely panicked, struggled hard, and shouted: "What do you want to do?" How dare you? I want to see Your Highness! You can't do that! Spare your life......"

After crying a few times, Wang Shouen was already sobbing and ugly.

Suspecting that he was noisy, he ordered Wang Shouen to block his mouth, and took out a wide and long linen cloth and wrapped it around his head. With the moaning of "woo" gradually lowered, Wang Shouen slowly lost his voice and was covered to death.

When it was confirmed that he was dead, he asked the body to be moved back to his room, and Xiang Xun sat down in Wang Shouen's place, picked up chopsticks, and asked people to add a bowl of rice and continue to eat.

"After following His Highness, I haven't eaten such good food, so I can't waste it......"

......

"Your Highness."

Sitting upright behind the bookcase, Liu Chengyou held his sleeve in one hand and practiced his words stroke by stroke. His handwriting, after practicing for a long time, is still ugly, and his hand hanging in the air is still a little trembling.

"It's all done?" Without raising his head, Liu Chengyou asked.

"The white ......flag has been hung up in the royal mansion," Xiang Xun replied: "General Guo's side has also acted, and he will never give those gangsters who are plotting to make trouble a chance to escape!" ”

"Hmm." Liu Chengyou responded.

"The servants in the palace?" Raising his eyes and glancing at Liu Chengyou, he asked Xun in a low voice.

"What do you want to do?"

"I have asked for humble duties, and most of them were recruited after Wang Shouen arrived in Luzhou." Xiang Xun explained.

"Then deal with that small group of people......" Hearing this, Liu Chengyou replied blandly.

"Yes!"

"By the way, Lone and you will join the army to record the job, and by Lone's side, you will officially participate in the recording of important military and political affairs......"

"Your Highness!"

After Xiang Xun retired, Liu Chengyou picked up the paper on the case, placed it on the candle, and burned his ugly words clean.
