Chapter 204: Xingcheng Changed Hands

On this day, several ministers in the court were reprimanded by Zhou Qingwu, and the few who appeared the most in the records were all demoted.

Among them, Zhang Quan has had the most money exchanges with Wang Jing.

Seeing Zhang Quan's already frightened hands trembling, Zhou Qingwu suddenly remembered Zhang Ruolan, and after touching Zhang Ruolan's light, Zhang Quan became the only official in the record who thought about it at home!

Even after going down to the court, Zhou Qingwu still had residual anger in his eyes.

Xiao Luzi followed Zhou Qingwu's side, and he didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that he would be punished if he was not careful.

Sitting in the dragon chariot to the Changchun Palace, Zhang Ruolan was sitting and reading a book, reading it seriously, and she didn't even hear the eunuchs singing outside.

Zhou Qingwu arrived, and Zhang Ruolan hurriedly stood up and saluted: "The concubine has seen the emperor, but she can't go out to greet her, please forgive the emperor!" ”

Zhou Qingwu glanced at her and said lightly: "Get up!" ”

Zhang Ruolan got up, looked at Zhou Qingwu's appearance, and found that his face was not good, so she stood aside and said nothing.

Zhou Qingwu picked up the book that Zhang Ruolan put on the table, and said to her: "I came to see what Concubine Ai was looking at, and I was so fascinated that I didn't even notice that I came." ”

As he spoke, he turned over the cover of the book, and the words "Classic of Mountains and Seas" were written on it, and Zhou Qingwu couldn't help but feel interesting: "What does Concubine Ai think of these?" Aren't you afraid? ”

Zhang Ruolan said softly: "If you have nothing to do, you will turn the two pages, and the concubines will naturally not dare to read it at night." ”

Zhou Qingwu put down the book, sat on the round stool, and said to Chang Ruolan: "Concubine Ai, sit too!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhang Ruolan sat next to Zhou Qingwu in response, it seemed that no matter how long she entered the palace, Zhang Ruolan was so polite.

But this is also what Zhou Qingwu likes about her the most, not like Zhen Lianhua and Queen Xian, a woman who is too thoughtful, he looks at it as an eyesore!

"Your father contacted the party members of the court today, and he has been suspended from his post by me, and he has thought about it at home!"

Zhou Qingwu suddenly said such a sentence, and even Xiaoluzi was startled.

Zhang Ruolan looked at him as if Zhou Qingwu was talking about someone else's father, and said, "The concubine has married Your Majesty, and the concubine has no complaints about the decisions made by Your Majesty." ”

Zhou Qingwu felt surprised in his heart, "You don't intercede for your father?" ”

Zhang Ruolan blinked, "Your Majesty will definitely not wronged the concubine's father for the sake of the country." ”

Zhou Qingwu heard Zhang Ruolan say this, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I am very relieved that Concubine Ai can be so sensible!" ”

When he came out of Changchun Palace, Zhou Qingwu glanced back at the three gilded characters of Changchun Palace, and his previous anger had completely disappeared.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Ruolan received Zhou Qingwu's holy decree, and became Mrs. Lan from a small Wanyi.

Zhang Ruolan picked up the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" again, a pair of beautiful eyes flowed, and murmured softly: "People's hearts are disgusting!" ”

On the other side, Zhang Dehai had already arrived at Wang Jing's mansion in Xingcheng, and when Zhao Yan saw him coming, he didn't even want to do face work, so he asked someone to take him to Wang Jing's house.

The house is full of stench, because he has been removed from the position of city lord, it is good that Zhao Yan did not throw him out of the mansion, and the servants in the mansion do not come except for feeding him every day.

"Master Zhang, you've come to see me!" Wang Jing no longer has the strength to speak, and the whole person seems to be a teenager in just a few days, and he no longer has the arrogance of the past.

Zhang Dehai was originally angry, but at this moment, he was covered by the stench, "You did a good thing!" Is this kind of thing easy to record? ”

As he spoke, he threw the booklet in his hand on him and yelled at him: "It is because of you that I have lost my official position, otherwise you would have thought that I would have come here to see you?" ”

As he spoke, Zhang Dehai didn't want to look at him any more, so he turned around and said, "You just wait here to die!" ”

Zhang Dehai stepped out of the door and happened to meet Zhao Yan, Zhao Yan looked at this official who had not taken him seriously with a smile, and asked, "Where is Lord Zhang going?" ”

Zhang Dehai was in a very bad mood, and when he saw Zhao Yan blocking his way, he immediately shouted: "It's not your turn to care, get out of the way!" ”

Zhao Yan's face became fierce in vain, and Zhang Dehai was frightened in place for a moment, "The city lord of Xingcheng, but I am the one who is the lord, you have no official position, and you have no title, you dare to tell me to get out of the way?" ”

Zhang Dehai was reprimanded like this by the person he once looked down on, his face turned red for a while, and he looked at Zhao Yan and said: "It's just to temporarily take on the responsibility of this city lord, what kind of magic do you have!" ”

As he spoke, he prepared to leave from the other direction, but who knew that Zhao Yan blocked his way again, "You can't go!" ”

Zhang Dehai looked at Zhao Yan suspiciously, Zhao Yan smiled and said: "Your Majesty wants you to accompany Wang Jing here, if you leave, how can I explain to Your Majesty?" ”

After that, without waiting for Zhang Dehai to react, he immediately shouted to the guards on the side: "Someone!" Put Zhang Deguan into Wang Jing's room, and don't let him out without my order! ”

"Yes!" The two guards immediately came up and grabbed Zhang Dehai's arm and dragged him into Wang Jing's foul-smelling house.

Zhao Yan walked away, and he could still hear his shouting, but yes, who wants to be locked up with a person who is incontinent? It's better to kill him!

On the first day, Zhang Dehai had already become a little embarrassed, and Zhao Yan glanced at the door.

Zhang Dehai knelt at the door with his hair scattered, as if he was still delusional that he could get out.

Three or five days passed, and finally on the night of this day, a guard hurriedly came over and said to Zhao Yan; "City Lord, Wang Jing and Zhang Dehai are dead!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yan was a little surprised.

Although Zhao Yan knew that the two of them would not be able to hold on for long, he just didn't expect that they would die so soon?

"How did you die?" Zhao Yan drank tea and asked lightly.

The guard arched his hand and replied: "Lord Hui, it was Zhang Dehai who first broke the cup, and then killed Wang Jing with fragments, and then committed suicide!" ”

Zhao Yan nodded, drank the tea, and said to the guard: "Take a few people to find a random place to throw the corpse, don't dirty my place here!" ”

The guard answered, "Yes, my subordinates obey." ”

After the guards left, Zhao Yan immediately wrote a letter and ordered it to be passed on to Zhou Qingwu.

"Wang Jing and Zhang Dehai died, just right, so I don't have to pass on the message." Zhou Qingwu looked at the letter written by Zhao Yan, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In the end, it is still this small leader, which makes people feel more comfortable.

That night, Zhao Yan received Zhou Qingwu's holy decree.

From then on, the city lord of this apricot city was him Zhao Yan.
