, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Championship Record!

There is a tall horse at the entrance of the county government, and there is a person immediately, although he is dressed as a eunuch, he is sassy and heroic, and he is quite heroic.

"Xia Xiang took the order."

Xia Xiang didn't dare to look at the person on the horse, and when he saw him holding the holy decree in his hand, he immediately responded: "The minister accepts the decree." ”

"Yi Xia Xiang: The Son of Heaven will build a country, and he must choose the virtuous and appointed; If the princes have merit, they will add the land and enter the law. I am the great handle of civil and military, the supreme of China, the selfless name, and the loyalty and hard work. Zhending Zhi County Xia Xiang, benevolent and brave, Anmin Bu Zheng, special silver 100 taels, plus 48 stones. Wanger will always enjoy the nobility, and do not forget the oath. Erqi benefits encourage the previous repair, in order to rely on it. ”

"Your Majesty." Xia Xiang got up to receive the decree, thinking that the emperor was really stingy, and only rewarded him with one hundred taels of silver and forty-eight stone rice, and the money he transported back to Beijing from the underground bank for the emperor was enough to be millions of yuan, which could be worth a year's tax in a government.

However, Xia Xiang just thought about it, so he didn't dare to really disrespect the emperor.

"Xia Langjun, look at who I am?"

Xia Xiang took over and was about to say a few polite words to the angel, when he suddenly heard the angel speak, the voice was a little familiar, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and when he looked up, he was meeting a pair of bright and curious eyes of the angel.

"You, you, you, are you?" Xia Xiang was stunned on the spot, he couldn't believe his eyes, how could it be time? But the smiling person in front of him is clearly the time.

"Do you still recognize Shi'er? Do you remember the time? Brother Xia, Shi'er finally saw you again, woo woo......" Shi'er cried when he said he cried, regardless of the presence of others, he cried loudly when he fell on Xia Xiang, "Shi'er almost didn't see Brother Xia." ”

Zheng Shan, Ma Zhanguo and others were stunned, the angel who delivered the decree was a woman is enough to surprise people, and what is even more surprising is that as soon as she met, she hugged Xia Xianzun and cried bitterly, isn't it Xia Xianzun's love debt again?

Xia Xiang glanced at Shi'er a few times, Shi'er was a little thinner than before, but he had grown taller, and his palm-sized face was full of tears, and his pitiful appearance made people feel distressed. He asked softly, "Why don't I remember you, Shi'er, how did you become an angel, how did you come to Zhending?" ”

"It's hard to put into words." Shi Er sighed and pulled Xia Xiang's hand, "Let's go, Brother Xia, let's go inside and talk." Throwing down Zheng Shan, Ma Zhanguo and the others looked at each other.

In the study, Zheng Shan sat at the top, Xia Xiang and Shi'er accompanied the bottom, and the rest of the people also sat on both sides, listening to Shi'er talk non-stop.

"My brother went to Rehe to serve as the magistrate, and I went with me. Later, my brother was ordered to return to Beijing and enter the Star King's Mansion at night, wanting me to marry the Star King as a side concubine, so I didn't want to marry the Star King. Although the Star King is not bad-looking, his eyes are unfathomable, which makes people scared. I didn't agree with anything, and my brother was angry and asked me to go back to Jianning. I didn't want to go back, so I quarreled with my brother......" Sometimes frowning and sometimes sad, it was pitiful, she suddenly smiled again, "Fortunately, I met Shen Langjun and Teng Langjun, or I would have been living on the streets." ”

"Shen Bao and Teng Zhengyuan?" Xia Xiang remembered the scene when he met the two when he was in the capital, and couldn't help but smile, "Brother Shen and Brother Teng are both temperamental and have similar temperaments. The capital has been separated for a few months, and I don't know what happened to the two of them now? ”

"It's all good, and the two of them asked me to do it to you. Especially Teng Langjun, who also asked me to hand over a letter. Shi'er took out a letter from his arms and grinned, "The letter was not sealed, I accidentally glanced at it a few times, Brother Xia, don't be angry, there is no secret in the letter." ”

Xia Xiang smiled dumbly, took the letter in his hand, opened it and saw that there were only a few words: "Zi said, I take people by words, and I lose them; Judging people by their appearance, they lose their sons. The ancients also said that those who know change with the times, and those who know make things as they go! "The Mean" is also cloudy, the predicate of the mandate of heaven is sexuality, the recklessness is the Tao, and the cultivation of the Tao is teaching. Those who are also in the Tao must not be separated from it; can be separated, not the way. Therefore, a gentleman is cautious of what he does not see, and fearful of what he does not hear. Don't see it, don't see it. Therefore, the gentleman is cautious. Teng Mouyan said that when he said goodbye to the capital, he missed Brother Xia very much, and looked forward to his reunion one day and drink and talk happily. ”

Shi'er probed over, and Bai Ruyu's finger pointed at the letter: "Brother Xia, Shi'er has read a lot, what Teng Langjun's letter means, I don't understand." ”

Xia Xiang smiled: "Brother Teng said that when he saw me for the first time before, he judged people by words and appearance, which was biased. Later, when I heard what I was doing in Zhending, I recognized my golden mean that changed with the times. Finally, he persuaded me that a gentleman must not deviate from the Tao, and must always tremble, as if facing the abyss, like walking on thin ice, and be cautious. ”

"I see...... Teng Langjun is also too worried, really, how does Brother Xia be an official, do you want him to take care of it? Shi Er wrinkled his nose unconvinced, and said, "Forget it, don't say bad things about Teng Langjun, although others are straighter, but they have integrity, they are a good person, much better than my brother." The elder brother is bent on camping, and he just wants to cling to the powerful and become the pawn of the saddle carriage of the star king. The Star King is now attentive, not only accepting his brother, but also promising to let him serve as a servant of the Zhongshu Sect in the future, and the brother is ecstatic and willing to drive for the Star King. ”

Although Xia Xiang was saddened by Zhang Hou's slave Yan's kneeling, he also knew that Zhang Hou's heart was higher than the sky, and he was determined to be higher than him and Shen Bao, and it was not a bad thing to have a competitive heart, and it was understandable that the avenue would go to one side, but it was just that he had to seek a future by opportunism, but it was just the fate of chess pieces and cannon fodder.

"A few days ago, my brother was transferred back to the capital by the Star King and served as the head of the Ministry of Officials. Shen Langjun also came out of the Hanlin Academy and served as the head of the military department. Teng Langjun is still the imperial history. Shi Er knew that Xia Xiang was very concerned about the personnel changes in the capital, so he brought the latest trends, "Mr. Li Dingshan is still in the imperial history, but he was promoted to the sixth rank, but Song Shilang was reappointed as the official department and promoted to the fifth rank. Also, Cao Shilang was also promoted to the fourth grade. Brother Xia, it is rumored that the emperor in Jingzhong is cured and is reviving the dynasty, I don't know if it's true? ”

Xia Xiang's heart moved, a series of personnel changes can indeed see the emperor's layout, there are retreats and advances, it is clear that it is gradually weakening the power of the Star King, although letting Zhang Hou serve as the head of the Ministry of Officials seems to be a small victory for the Star King, but letting Shen Bao serve as the head of the Ministry of War is also of great significance. The Star King urgently transferred Zhang Hou back to Beijing a few days ago, which shows that the matter of Zhending has a great impact on the Star King, and the Star King is redeploying troops to fill the vacancy that Zhending's forces have been dispersed.

Xia Xiang said with a smile: "As an angel, you will send an edict for the emperor, and you should know best what the emperor's condition is." ”

"Don't make fun of me, Brother Xia, my angel is a fake, and I haven't seen the emperor since I entered the palace."

"Huh?" Zheng Shan was shocked when he heard this, "What did you say?" Are you a false herald? False proclamation of the Holy Decree is a capital crime, and it is ...... to come."

"Don't make such a fuss, okay? I don't have a false decree, do you think I look so good-looking, like a false messenger? Shi Er glanced at Zheng Shan very dissatisfied, "Here's the thing...... After I was taken in by Shen Langjun and Teng Langjun, Shen Langjun recommended me to enter the palace as a female official, serving as the commander in charge, the pawn, and the official in charge of government decrees, liberal arts, seals, and playthings. ”

"When did you enter the palace and become a female official, why didn't the old man know?" Jin Jia and Ye Muping pushed the door in, and the first thing they said was that Shi'er said that she had become a Shangguan, and they couldn't help but look surprised, "Is it recommended by Shen Bao?" ”

"Mr. Jin Jia, I only took office a few days ago, and when I took office, you really decided to leave Beijing, so naturally I don't know." Shi'er hugged Jin Jia's arm and shook it a few times, "Mr. Jin Jia doesn't care about Shi Er, Shi Er was bullied, and you don't feel distressed?" ”

Jin Jia couldn't stand the woman's coquettishness the most, and immediately surrendered: "Shi'er, it's not that the old man doesn't care about you, it's a family matter for you and Zhang Hou to have an emotional relationship, how can the old man be an outsider, how can he interfere?" Okay, okay, it's not okay now, there is Shen Bao, Teng Zhengyuan, and Chang Guan, Zhang Hou can't bully you. ”

"Hmph, even if I don't have them, I won't let my brother bully." Shi Er smiled confidently, "It's been less than a few days since I became a female official, and Chang Nei Shi asked me to really make a decree, and said that this holy decree must be me, where do I know how to pass on the decree, Chang Nei said again, I just need to come to Zhending with a few inner servants, and as soon as I heard that I could see Brother Xia, I came over happily." After arriving in Zhending, several chamberlains went to the government office and asked me to come to the county government office alone. ”

Chang Guan asked Shi'er to come alone to deliver the decree, there must be a deep meaning, Xia Xiang asked: "In addition to the decree, what else does Chang Nei have to say?" ”

"If you don't say it, I really forgot, Chang Neishou really has something to tell you alone." Shi Er's eyes rolled and looked at everyone, "Do you want to avoid it?" ”

Zheng Shan was amused by Shi'er: "If you really have something to say to Xia Xianzun in private, you don't have to say it to your face." ”

"I'm really not interested, forget it, I don't have the same knowledge as you." Shi Ercai didn't care who Zheng Shan was, she lifted her toes, leaned into Xia Xiang's ear, and whispered, "Chang Nei said that the emperor will not only come to Zhending to tour the south as scheduled, but also go to Xingzhou." ”

"That's all?" Xia Xiang was stunned.

"That's all." Shi Er looked innocent and said, "I don't understand why Chang Nei asked me to tell you that the emperor is going to Xingzhou, what are the fun places in Xingzhou?" ”

The voice was so loud that everyone could hear it clearly. Shi Er realized the gaffe, and hurriedly covered his mouth, looking embarrassed: "Oh, I'm sorry Chang Nei, I accidentally said it and let people hear it, you must not blame me, right?" ”

The crowd laughed.

Zheng Shan looked puzzled: "The emperor is really determined, and he wants to go to Xingzhou again, there must be something strange about this matter, is it because he was forced by the Star King to go to Xingzhou?" In the land of Xingzhou, there are neither mountains nor rivers, and it is as difficult as climbing to the sky if the Star King wants to set up a situation, what does he want to do? ”

Ye Muping smiled: "People have a thousand calculations, but they are not worth one by God." ”

"That's right, there's one more thing I almost forgot to say......" Shi Er waved his little hand and asked everyone to pay attention to her, "I also heard from Chang Nei that this time the emperor is touring the south, and the momentum is huge, not only several princes are accompanying him, but also many civil and military officials will also come together...... Okay, I'm done talking, I'm going to play, Brother Xia, where are Sister Lian, Sister Cao, and Sister Xiao? ”

Xia Xiang asked Xiao Wuling Shi'er to go to Xiajiazhuang to find Lian Ruohan and others, and he discussed with Zheng Shan and the others again, but he couldn't guess what the emperor's intention was to go to Xingzhou, and Jin Jia and Ye Muping didn't dare to draw conclusions.

Mansion, Cui Xiang study. Cui Xiang sat on the medicine chair, the room was full of smoke, exuding a strong smell of wormwood, his brows were furrowed, his face was solemn, and his eyes were blank.

Tongzhi Cheng Daotong, the magistrate Li Heng and the county Cheng Xu Heguang sat down, and several people stared at Cui Xiang intently, waiting for Cui Xiang to speak.

After a long time, Cui Xiangcai seemed to come back from the fugue, his eyes swept over the faces of several people blankly, and suddenly laughed dryly: "Xu Xiancheng, it is also interesting for you and Zheng Tong's judgment, a county judge often comes to the government office, and a general judgment is always in the county office, it is most suitable for you two to exchange identities." ”

Xu Heguang smiled embarrassedly, he was waiting for Cui Xiang to say something about the announcement from someone in the palace, but after waiting for a long time, it turned out to be an inconsequential joke, and he couldn't help but say: "Cui Fuzun, several chamberlains have returned to the capital, they said that they were passing the decree, but they only verbally rewarded a few words, and did not really bring a reward. What does that mean exactly? ”

Xu Heguang didn't understand today's events, several servants came from afar, saying that there was a holy decree, Cui Xiang hurriedly greeted the decree, but the inner servant just obeyed the emperor's instructions, praising Cui Xiang for governing the Zhending Mansion in a good way, and hoped that Cui Xiang would make persistent efforts to make every effort to make the country better and go to the next level. After the decree was announced, the waiter went inside and took a sip of tea, and then took his leave.

Under Cui Xiang's questioning, the chamberlain accidentally revealed a news that there was also a female official among the people who came with them, who went to the county government to pass the decree, and the female official's name was Zhang Shi'er, who was Zhang Hou's sister.

After the waiter left, Cui Xiang returned to the study and sat speechless for a long time.

Cheng Daotong coughed and rubbed his nose, the smell of wormwood made him very uncomfortable, but it was difficult to speak: "Cui Fuzun, in the opinion of the lower officials, the emperor asked the inner servants to pass on the decree to commend him, which is to appease Cui Fuzun." A few days ago, Zheng Ti sent a letter to the emperor, demanding that the people involved in the Fu Ke case be severely punished, and he also participated in Cui Fuzun's book. The emperor suppressed the twists and turns, most of which were also dissatisfied with Zheng Ti's punishment and the big situation. ”

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Li Heng said worriedly, "The emperor sent someone to deliver the decree, firstly, to appease, and secondly, to warn. Otherwise, the emperor can just suppress Zheng Ti's punishment, why bother to let people come to make a real decision? ”

"Li Tuiguan's words, the lower officials dare not agree." Xu Heguang refuted Li Heng very dissatisfied, he felt that Li Heng was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, "The emperor remembered that Cui Fuzun had worked hard and made great achievements, and sent someone to appease him, which is also the emperor's ...... to Cui Fuzun."

"Don't say it." Cui Xiang waved his hand, suddenly coughed violently, and hurriedly took a sip of tea to suppress it, "Li Tuiguan's words make some sense, the emperor's move is a blow to this official." The chamberlain also said that the person who gave the decree to Xia Xiang had a holy purpose. ”
