Chapter Seventy-Three: The Wind Strikes Deep in the Night
At this time, someone came to report that a corpse had appeared in the eastern suburbs of Buddha City. Gongzi Qi rushed to the eastern suburbs to arrive at the scene of the crime, entered the mountain temple and found the corpse lying on the straw mat, which was now unrecognizable, and the face was scraped off and he couldn't recognize who was who. Gongzi Qi was stunned and took a few steps back, and said in surprise: "This person is so cruel, unheard of!" At this time, Gongzi Qi was thinking about who this murderer was, and the county Cheng stepped forward and said: "Childe, this person is so cruel, who is it?" ”
"Gongsun Yin."
"Childe, do you say that this murderer is Gongsun Yin?" After hearing this, the county man was suddenly surprised.
"Exactly."
"The lower official immediately sent someone to arrest him, and the whole city searched for him, even if he dug three feet into the ground, he had to find out this person and correct the law on the spot."
"There is no need to arrest him, this person has already escaped from the Buddha City."
Gongzi Qi arranged for some officials to bury the corpse and put it into the ground, and then walked out of the mountain temple to the county government, and some local officials of the county city and its Buddha City walked into the county government hall and sat on both sides of the hall. Gongzi Qi stood in the middle of the county hall and looked at the magistrates on both sides, and said: "Disasters have fallen from the sky, and the people of Buddha City have suffered disasters. Before the flood came, the county governor An Guofu promptly relocated the people from the downstream to the upper reaches or the highlands to settle down, so that the lives of the people in the Buddha City were guaranteed, and the loss of property and the safety of the people's lives were reduced as much as possible. After that, he did not avoid the powerful, secretly investigated these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and cleared the obstacles for me to control corruption in the Buddha City, and his martyrdom will be recorded in the annals of history, and his wisdom will be forever stored in the hearts of the people of the Buddha City, immortal. Gongzi Qi led the local officials of Buddha City to kneel down and said, "We are here to send off Lord An, Lord An will go all the way." ”
Then he got up and stepped forward and sat down in front of the desk in the lobby, and the magistrates on both sides of the Buddha City sat on both sides. Gongzi said: "An Shiqiang, the son of An Guofu, stepped forward to listen to the seal. ”
"The grass people are here," An Shiqiang, the son of the county lieutenant, stepped forward and knelt down.
"According to the royal decree of the king, Feng An Shiqiang is the state pastor, I am about to write to my father, the holy decree is about to be issued, after being the state pastor, I must be like your father, do practical things for the people of Buddha City, be a good official, a clean official."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xie, the lower officials will listen closely to the teachings of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the words of the Crown Prince will be remembered in their hearts," An Shiqiang, the son of the county lieutenant, stood up and retreated and sat next to him.
"The county lord Yang Yunkai, assisted Miss Ling to relieve the people affected by the disaster, the flood destroyed the homes of the people downstream, and the county lord Yang sent people downstream in time to salvage the people who died in the flood, and gave comfort to the families who were killed. After that, he assisted the county Cheng'an to secretly investigate the corrupt officials, endured the humiliation, and beheaded the corrupt official Feng Yong in the West City, and the county Cheng stepped forward to listen to the seal. ”
"The lower official is here," Lord Cheng Yang of the county stepped forward and knelt down.
"According to the royal decree of the king, Yang Yunkai of the county is the order of Focheng County, I am about to write to my father, the holy decree is about to be issued, and it is up to you to assist the state Mu'an to deal with the government affairs of various states and counties."
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie," the county man stood up and stepped aside.
"The second is to open warehouses to release grain, distribute seeds, plant seeds in spring and harvest in autumn, build warehouses in various prefectures and counties, relieve the people affected by the disaster, build private houses, and rebuild their homes, so as to avoid the suffering of local people leaving their homes; The third is to build a new water conservancy, build a flood control dam, dredge the river, release it when the water is full, and store it in the flood dam when the water is in deficit, and use this water to irrigate farmland when there is a big drought. ”
The first thing Gongzi Qi did when he came to Focheng was to punish corrupt officials, rectify the rule of officials, and make them officials and honest officials. When he was in Focheng, he already had a list of officials who had been bribed by the county commander Feng Yong, and these officials began to panic, especially the Beijing officials, who had gathered in the mansions of the second prince and the evil, most of whom were subordinates of the second prince's mansion, and they were worried that they would lose their official positions or lose their heads because of this.
"Second son, I'm afraid we can't stay in the court, from now on, the court is all the people of His Royal Highness the Prince, that is, ***. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince killed the county commander Feng Yong in Focheng, and he got the list of county commanders Feng Yong bribing us officials, and it will be a big purge after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returns to the court. ”
"My eldest brother's change is to recognize the law and not admit feelings, if it weren't for my father, I would already be a ghost under his knife, and now the change is on the momentum, I usually tell you to restrain a little, you just don't listen, and accept a lot of bribes, don't you pick up an egg and touch it on the stone? How much dirty silver did you collect from Feng? ”
These subordinates all lowered their heads and didn't say a word, and at this time, a family member in the second prince's mansion stepped forward and said: "Second Highness, Daoist Yin Sheng is asking to see you outside the mansion gate, this is a letter of recommendation written by the county commander Feng Yong." ”
"Isn't that framing me? If this person is gone, he says I am not there. ”
"Second Highness, Xia Guan has been to the Buddha City once, and has also seen this person, this person is a strange person, he once predicted that there will be heavy rain in three days, and the heavy rain from the sky will be a disaster, this prophecy has really come true, Second Highness still meet this person, this person will be of great help to you in the future."
Gongzi and the evil sat on the top of the main hall, took the recommendation letter from the hand of the family and said, "Spread the Taoist into the house." ”
After Yin Sheng entered, he stood in the main hall, holding his head high and looking at the son and evil above the main hall. His appearance is so ugly, the son and the evil will inevitably have a kind of disgust when they see this Taoist, and such an ugly person must not have any good strategy in his heart, and he despised him: "You are Gongsun Yin." ”
"Poor Dao is the sorcerer Yin Sheng, not Gongsun Yin, and now I ask His Royal Highness to hide the name of Poor Dao, so that it can hide people's eyes and ears."
"Why did I hide your name for you, you are a criminal wanted by the imperial court, I can hand you over to my father, and the law will be corrected."
"Second Highness, do you really want your eldest brother Gongzi Qi to sit on the throne? Aren't you afraid that Gongzi Qi will kill you after he sits on the throne? The last time I led someone to kill a law enforcement officer, Gongzi Qi almost killed you, Gongzi Qi denied it for the sake of the decree, can you ensure that your status will be worry-free in the future? Your presence will threaten the stability of his throne, don't you understand the truth that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers? Poor Dao guessed that Gongzi Qi would definitely kill you to consolidate his royal power, can't you still learn a lesson from the coups of the royal family in the past courts? ”
"No, no, my eldest brother won't kill me," At this time, Gongzi and Evil were scared out of a cold sweat, and they couldn't bear it when they sat on the top of the hall.
"Think about it, you are brothers, you should know that Gongzi Qi is a heartless person, the nature of a heartless person is ruthless, mean, cruel and unkind, how can such a person allow you to threaten his royal rule? Your father is still in the world, he still doesn't dare to kill you, he is afraid, once your father dies, then your death will not be far away, and the poor road has a plan to get rid of Gongzi Qi, and you will be the king yourself. ”
"What's the witch's plan?" Yin Sheng's words went to the hearts of Gongzi and Evil, and at this time, Gongzi and Evil couldn't wait to be kings, and they were restless in the main hall. After hearing this, he was very happy, but he was curious and shouted to the left and right: "Show the witch immortal," Gongzi and Evil were anxious to hear the plan in Yin Sheng's heart, so as to get rid of his eldest brother Gongzi Qi.
The family on both sides brought the table and its cushion and put it in the main hall, Yin Sheng turned around and picked up his robe and waved it up and sat in front of the desk, quite a bit of the immortal family's lofty demeanor, and said after sitting down: "Please retreat from the second highness." ”
"Okay, okay, you all stand down," these subordinates stepped forward and looked at the son and evil above the main hall, and looked at Yin Sheng who was sitting in front of him now, because he was dissatisfied with this person, and now it was the spring breeze that the chicken dog had ascended to heaven. Yin Sheng was just what he could do with him when he was proud, he could only turn around and leave obediently.
After these people retreated, Gongzi asked anxiously, "Wu Xian, it's time to tell the plan in your heart." ”
"Your Second Highness can hand over these officials who accept bribes to your father, let your father dispose of them, and claim to be honest, Gongzi Qi will be negligent in guarding against you, and after sending an envoy to Qin to lobby the prince to send spies to infiltrate the capital of Ba, spread rumors that Gongzi Qi is about to rebel against his own army, and one person will say that your father will not believe it, and when the second person says this, then your father will be suspicious of the prince, and the three people will say that your father will believe that the prince has the heart of rebellion. You have a close relationship with Concubine Ru in the harem, that is, the favorite concubine around the king, if the concubines around the king are saying bad things about Gongzi Qi, and design with Concubine Ru that Gongzi Qi has an affair with her, then Gongzi Qi's life will not be guaranteed. ”
"Good strategy, then who can send an envoy to the Qin State?"
"It's okay to hide."
"Okay," Childe and the evil called to the guards next to him, "Chuan Zeng Yin entered the palace." ”
Zeng Yin entered the main hall and saluted: "Second Highness." ”
Childe and Evil sat on the top of the lobby and moved his gaze to Zeng Yin's body and said, "I sent you as an envoy to the Qin State, can you complete this mission?" ”
"I don't know what happened when His Royal Highness sent an envoy to the Qin State?"
"Persuade the King of Qin to send spies to infiltrate the capital and spread rumors that Gongzi Qi has rebelled against the army, so as to divide the father-son relationship between Gongzi Qi and the king of Ba," Yin Sheng stepped forward and stood in front of Zeng Yin.
"You want to kill the prince, the prince is the pillar of our country, and if the pillar collapses, the state of Qin will attack my country unscrupulously, and my country is in danger, and the lower officials think that this matter is inappropriate, and please think twice about it."
"You don't have to worry about this matter, the soldiers and horses of the Qin State are dealt with by the poor road, and the poor road has a plan to repel this million lions, you just need to complete your mission."
"Yes, the lower official must live up to his mission," after finishing speaking, Zeng Yin retired, and Gongzi and evil asked: "Wu Xian, if you want to get rid of my eldest brother, Zhang Ji will not be easy to deal with first, Zhang Ji is my eldest brother's right-hand man at the time of change." ”
"You have your own way to deal with Zhang Jipengdao, and Your Royal Highness doesn't have to worry about it."
