Chapter 619: The Way of the Monarch and the Minister
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Dong Xuan, as the commander of Luoyang, knows a lot of local snakes in Luoyang. That night, he asked several local snakes who had some strength in Luoyang to find the county government, and asked them to help him find out the suspicious people in the city. These ruffians in Luoyang admired Dong Xuan very much, and after listening to his words, several ruffians patted their chests and promised: "Dong County Order, this matter, you can rest assured that you will hand it over to the brothers!" As long as the Assassins are still hiding in the city, we will be able to take them
They find out! β
Dong Xuan nodded with satisfaction and reminded: "These assassins, who dare to assassinate Lord Taichang, not only are their strength not to be underestimated, but they must have a very glamorous identity as a cover. β
After a pause, he rubbed his chin and said quietly, "The assassin should have only come to Luoyang in the last few days, and he won't be alone. That's where you can start your investigation. β
Everyone nodded in unison and responded, "The villain has written it down." β
Dong Xuanzheng said: "Once you find a suspicious person, you must remember not to fight with him, you need to come to the county government immediately to report to me!" These Assassins are highly skilled and skilled in secret weapons, and you are no match for them! β
Several ruffians looked at each other, and said to Dong Xuan: "Dong County Order, I have memorized it!" β
"Also, tomorrow Luoyang will close the city, and the county government officials will search for assassins from house to house in the city, you need to pay attention to which people have abnormal movements during this period."
"Yes!" Several ruffians agreed, and one of them cautiously asked, "Dong County Order, how many days will the city be closed this time?" β
Dong Xuan smiled bitterly, stretched out a finger, and said: "Luoyang is the capital, with my ability, I can only do the closure of the city for one day!" β
Everyone looked at each other, and the ruffian who had just asked him muttered, "In this case, we only have one day." β
Dong Xuan didn't say anything more, and said, "Let's go and do things!" β
"Dong County order, the villain retires!" Several ruffians saluted Dong Xuan one after another, and then exited the lobby together. At dawn, as Dong Xuan said, the gate of Luoyang was closed, and notices were posted next to the city gates, explaining that the whole city was searching for assassins today, and if the people found suspicious people, they could report to the government at any time
Those who are assassins will be rewarded by the government.
On the same day, Dong Xuan sent all the officials of the county government out, and at the same time, the county government also received the full assistance of the Beijing army to jointly search for the assassins. Today's Luoyang City, the streets and alleys, you can see a joint team composed of officials and soldiers everywhere, usually a few officials run in front to lead the way, followed by a large number of soldiers in Beijing, walk the streets, through the alleys, knock on the door when you see it, knock
When he opened the door, he went in and searched it.
For a time, chickens and dogs jumped in Luoyang City.
No one expected that the imperial court would be able to have such great strength in this search for assassins. You must know that Luoyang is the capital, and the closure of the city for one day is already a very big deal.
The officials and soldiers searched from morning to late at night, and as a result, after a day of tossing, the inner city of Luoyang was almost turned upside down, but they found nothing, and no suspicious person was found at all.
In the county government, Dong Xuan sat in the middle, and the county government officials were sad and sighed.
County Lieutenant Wu Fang glanced at Dong Xuan, shook his head and said, "Your Excellency shouldn't have made such a package ticket in front of Your Majesty and made a three-day appointment!" β
The county Cheng Zhong said straightly: "The day has passed, but we haven't even found any clues!" β
Wu Fang's brows were furrowed, his face was ugly, the key problem now was that the city was only closed for one day, and the city would be opened tomorrow, once the assassins were allowed to sneak out of the city, it would be difficult to capture them.
He cleared his throat and asked in a low voice, "My lord, can you ask Your Majesty to seal the city for one more day?" β
Dong Xuan didn't think about it, shook his head and said: "The one-day lockdown is already the limit, and it will definitely not be extended to two days." β
Wu Fang was silent for a moment, then changed his words and asked again: "Then, how about relaxing the agreed period to five days, or ten days?" Dong Xuan looked at Wu Fang, and then at the other county officials, and said word by word: "In front of Your Majesty, the person who made the three-day covenant is me, not Your Majesty!" Now the assassin is in the city, right under our noses, and I'm the county commander
If I can't find any clues about the Assassins within three days, then I'm too incompetent and deserve severe punishment! β
Hearing this, the faces of everyone present turned red, and they secretly said ashamed.
Wu Fang stood up and said, "My lord, go to Nancheng again!" Nancheng is where the palace is located, and there are many mansions of dignitaries and dignitaries around it, and when searching, it is inevitable that there will be omissions, so I will inspect it again! β
The other officials also got up and offered to search all over the city. Dong Xuan looked at the crowd, waved his hand at them, and said, "You have worked hard for a day, today, that's the end of it, and we will continue to search tomorrow!" β
"My lordβ"
"Alright, no more! Hurry back to your home and rest! "All day, I didn't find any clues, and Dong Xuan didn't think that at night, he would suddenly find out the clues.
Wu Fang and the others looked at each other and said goodbye to Dong Xuan. Dong Xuan did not stay in the county government and returned to his house to rest. The search of the county government came to an end, and Hua Feiyan also truthfully reported the progress of the county government to Liu Xiu.
After Liu Xiu heard this, he paced back and forth in the main hall. After walking for a while, he asked, "Fei Yan thinks that Dong Xuan will be able to find out the traces of the assassin within three days?" β
This question really stumped Hua Feiyan. Anyway, as far as she was concerned, she didn't dare to make such a guarantee. But the three-day appointment was proposed by Dong Xuan himself, if he was not sure, why did he make such a promise?
After a moment of silence, Hua Feiyan shook his head honestly and said, "My subordinates don't know. β
Liu Xiu smiled bitterly and asked, "Is it true that you can't find any clues at all?" β
Hua Feiyan said: "The county government has already checked all the corners in the city, and it is almost three feet into the ground!" β
Liu Xiu muttered, "When the assassins carried out the assassination, it was already late at night, and the city gate was already closed, so it was impossible for the assassins to escape out of the city. Could it be that they had wings on their backs and flew out of Luoyang City? β
Hua Feiyan said: "My subordinates thought that the assassin was in the city now, but he was too well hidden, and there was no flaw at all!" Liu Xiu raised his forehead and smiled bitterly, and said: "Uncle first followed me to fight in the north and south, on the battlefield, what a powerful enemy I have never faced, but this time, he died at the hands of Mosleevetang." If it weren't for Weijun being left in the palace by me and sending the empty car back to the house, this time, I'm afraid I would have to step up
Uncle's dust! The harm of the assassin is far greater than that of the battlefield! β
The enemies on the battlefield are real, real, visible, and touchable, but these Jianghu assassins are mysterious and treacherous, elusive, and unguardable.
Hua Feiyan lowered his head and whispered: "It's the incompetence of his subordinates, who can't solve problems for His Majesty!" β
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Tomorrow, you and Zhiwen will continue to explore the traces of the assassins in the city!" β
"Yes! Your Majesty! β
Liu Xiu retracted his gaze, looked at the high recital on the table, and sighed helplessly. He picked up a note, it was Kou Sui from Hanoi County, and the content of the note was very simple, it was Kou Sui who proposed to be transferred to the army.
Seeing Liu Xiu holding the song, her brows were tightly locked, and her heart was heavy, Hua Feiyan was quite curious, stepped forward, helped Liu Xiu pour a cup of tea, and looked at the music in Liu Xiu's hand at the same time.
After seeing it, she asked puzzledly: "Kou Taishou did a good job, why did he suddenly propose to transfer to the army?" β
Liu Xiu snorted and laughed, smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Ziyi, this person, it's good anywhere, it's just too foreign." β
"Huh?" Hua Feiyan didn't understand, and looked at Liu Xiu puzzled.
Liu Xiu put down the note in his hand and said: "This is already Ziyi's second letter, and the first letter, he proposed to retire." Hua Feiyan looked surprised. What is Kou Sui's ability, that is obvious to all, Hanoi County, which was originally full of thieves, is now well managed by him, and the grain transported from Hanoi to Luoyang is endless, looking at the Taishou of each county, Kou Sui
The ability is definitely one of the best, so why did he retire?
Liu Xiu was dazzled and asked, "Don't understand?" β
Hua Feiyan said honestly: "My subordinates really don't understand! β
Liu Xiu said: "What Ziyi is worried about is that the merit is high. β
It was precisely because Kou Sui had governed Hanoi so well that he became worried.
During the period when Kou Sui was the Taishou of Hanoi, he was a thief and a thief in the interior, and he attacked the Su Mao army that came to attack, which can be described as a prominent achievement, and in Hanoi, Kou Xun's prestige was so high that no one could reach it, and in all counties of Hanoi, it was echoed.
But it was precisely like this, which made Kou Sui feel insecure.
Actually, it's also very understandable. As a courtier, he has too high prestige and reputation in the local area, is the Son of Heaven really so relieved, and he really won't have the slightest jealousy?
What's more, not long ago, Yuyang was too protective of Peng Pet and rebelled. Kou Sui pondered for a while, so he might as well take the initiative to retreat.
Kou Sui first gave Liu Xiu a letter of resignation, and after being rejected by Liu Xiu, he immediately followed up with a letter that he wanted to transfer to the army. Anyway, Kou Xun's Shangshu has one purpose, and he doesn't want to do it in Hanoi.
After listening to Liu Xiu's words, Hua Feiyan suddenly realized that Kou Xian's Shangshu still had such a deep intention.
She blinked, looked at Liu Xiu, and admired it. The Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, and just through the minister's superiority, you can guess the minister's psychology approximately.
While admiring Liu Xiu, she couldn't help but feel pity.
In her opinion, being an emperor is really nothing to envy, too tired! There are so many things to ponder and think about every day.
Anyway, if she was put in Liu Xiu's position, she would not be able to do Liu Xiu's level anyway.
Hua Feiyan handed the teacup to Liu Xiu and asked, "Will Your Majesty be allowed to play?" β
Liu Xiu took the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said categorically: "Of course not." β
"What if Kou Taishou is sparse again!"
"If he's not tired, let him go up and down all the time!" Liu Xiu rolled her eyes angrily. Hua Feiyan was amused by his appearance, and sometimes, he felt that Liu Xiu and the ministers were still quite interesting to get along with.
Drinking a cup of tea, Liu Xiu put down the cup, pointed to Kou Sui's note, and said in a firm tone: "I will dismiss it again this time, and in a few days, Ziyi will be sparse again." β
Speaking of this, he looked at Hua Feiyan and asked, "Guess Feiyan, if Ziyi goes up again, what will he propose?" β
Hua Feiyan thought for a moment and said, "Kou Taishou may propose to be transferred to other counties as Taishou, right?" β
Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "If my guess is correct, Ziyi will send his nephew Kou Zhang to Luoyang." Seeing Hua Feiyan looking at himself blankly, Liu Xiu added: "Follow Xiao He back then." "At that time, Liu Bang led the troops to fight on the front line, Xiao He was in charge of the rear, Liu Bang sent people back to the rear every once in a while, comforting Xiao He, and later Xiao He sent his sons and cousins to the front line and put them under Liu Bang's nose, this Liu Bang
can be happy, and he will no longer send people to 'comfort' Xiao He. Liu Xiu said quietly: "Ziyi is talented with Xiao He, and I am far from the talent of Gaozu, how can I compare?" β
