Sun Yangao wiped the fine cold sweat on his forehead, and together with Wang Zhu, he took the civil and military officials of Dingzhou to salute.

"Dingzhou assassin Sun Yangao, led the civil and military officials of Dingzhou, came to receive the order!" Sun Yan gave a deep salute to the imperial envoy.

The imperial envoy just let out a snort from his nose, and then carefully scanned the crowd, and then frowned slightly, and asked, "Why do you only see Sun Tingshi, but not your adjutantant, Lord Shi Cui Gengcui, the governor of Dingzhou?" ”

Sun Yangao dared to fool Wang Zhu, but he didn't dare to fool the imperial envoy who came to deliver the decree, and in desperation, he had to say vaguely: "Well, this, Cui Changshi and this official have a slight misunderstanding, so they haven't taken office yet." ”

The envoy said: "There is a misunderstanding between the chief official of a state and the adjutant? What is the misunderstanding? ”

"Uh...... It's a long story. Sun Yangao gently wiped the dense sweat on his forehead again, and asked about the others: "I don't know the name of the Qin envoy Gao, how to call it?" ”

"A certain family is an internal servant in the province, and Uncle Liu asks for truth. Cui Changshi sometimes calls us Shilang, or Liu Laosi. Or else, Sun Tingshi also called it that? ”

The person who came turned out to be Cui Geng's old acquaintance, Liu Laosi.

But these words are in the ears of Sun Yangao and Fan Guanglie, but they have a different taste, dare to love this eunuch and Cui Erlang? And listening to him, the friendship is not shallow.

Liu Laosi's words obviously showed the carriage and horses, and he was on Cui Geng's side.

Sun Yangao's heart suddenly tightened, and he said: "It turns out that Liu Qishi and Cui Changshi are old acquaintances, so it's good to dare to be kind." Tsk......"

He smashed his mouth and said with a smile: "You see that Cui Changshi is not here now, dare to ask Liu Neishi, I don't know Your Majesty's will, do you have to take Weichen and Cui Changshi together, or can you pick it up separately?" ”

Liu Laosi chuckled lightly and said meaningfully: "It seems that Sun Thorn Shi and Cui Changshi are very deep!" ”

"Huh? No mustard, no mustard, Liu Neishou misunderstood! Sun Yangao saw that the dead eunuch Liu Laosi should have known about the dirty matter between himself and Cui Erlang.

"Alright, don't be verbose!"

Liu Laosi waved the dust, changed his face suddenly, and said solemnly: "Dingzhou Assassin Sun Yangao, take the order!" ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Sun Yangao led the way, and all the people present knelt down.

Liu Laosi preached at the throat of the male duck: "The edict said, I heard that locusts will grow after a long drought, and when the sky is covered." Jinding, Run, Hebei, Yi, Cang Wuzhou ......"

The general meaning of the holy decree is that because a big locust plague is likely to occur next year, Sun Yangao is specially appointed as the envoy of the five states to eliminate locusts, and Cui Geng is the deputy envoy of the five states to eliminate locusts.

Originally, this was nothing, when the Dingzhou Assassin was the most powerful, he was called the governor of Dingzhou, and he also led the military and political power of the nearby fourteen states. It is not out of the ordinary that he is now in charge of the locust eradication work in the five states. As his deputy, Governor Shi was appointed as the deputy envoy for the elimination of locusts.

But what is good about not dying is that there is more to this decree.

In the holy decree, it was said that in the second year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, there were great locusts in the world, because His Majesty Li Er had profound virtues, so he did not cause a catastrophe. Now that I am the founding king of the Great Zhou Dynasty, my virtue will never be comparable to that of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, right? Therefore, it is just a matter of surviving this locust plague. If it is really out of control, it is the sin of the local officials. At that time, once the locust eradication is unsuccessful, Sun Yangao will make a decision, and Cui Geng, as the deputy envoy of the locust eradication, will be removed from all official positions and demoted to the common people! As for the other officials in the five states, they are all punished.

Swish!

As soon as Liu Laosi's words fell, the eyes of almost everyone present turned to Sun Yangao......

Once the locust eradication fails, Sun Yangao, the history of Dingzhou, will be killed, and Cui Geng, the governor of Dingzhou, will be dismissed from his official position.

This Nima is also too eccentric.

He has been removed from his official position, and there may be a chance to make a comeback in the future. But when the head is gone, the life is gone......

It is clear which is more important at a glance.

Sun Yangao's face suddenly turned miserable, in addition to locusts, this kind of thing is facing natural and man-made disasters, who can the guarantee success! Your Majesty, you're too unreasonable, aren't you?

Sun Yangao thought about it, and he was about to cry!

At this time, he also understood that the top priority should be to abandon his previous suspicions with Cui Geng, join hands to fight against the locust plague next year, and do a good job of preventing and eradicating locusts as soon as possible. You can't continue to fight in the nest anymore, otherwise, once the mission to get rid of locusts fails, you won't even be able to save your life, and you'll still be fighting a fart?

He secretly pondered for a moment, damn, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, it seems that he wants to admit to Cui Erlang first, and let him hurry back to Dingzhou Mansion to take up his new post, and he can't be held on to him anymore!

Fan Guanglie, who was on the side, also felt the change in Sun Yangao's mind, and his heart was furious at that time!

He can't really let Cui Geng, a long history, take office smoothly! Because the records and soldiers were in charge of the Liucao documents and supervising the magistrates, there were many overlaps with the powers of Changshi. What's worse is that he has done too many personal things in the position of joining the army in this record. According to Cui Erlang's style of acting in the county lieutenant of Qingyuan County, the political envoy of Lingnan Province, and the commander of Jiangdu County, this surnamed Cui will definitely take office as a new official with three fires, killing chickens and monkeys to establish official authority. And the first thing to bear the brunt of is definitely this record to join the army. If Cui Geng grabbed the pigtails, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Immediately, he once again called Sun Yangao to the roadside grove in the name of Gong, and reasoned with Sun Yangao and moved him with affection.

All in all, Cui Geng will never be allowed to take office.

Sun Yangao finally got impatient when he heard it, and said angrily: "You are talking about all this uselessness, is it time to fight in the nest now?" There is really a locust plague, what can I do? Didn't you hear His Majesty's decree just now? The day of the defeat of the locusts is the time when the heads of the officials fall to the ground! ”

Fan Guanglie was silent for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth, and said in an urn voice: "This matter, Xia Guan carries it for Lord Thorn Shi!" ”

"You carry? You joined the army with a small record, why should you carry it? "The implication is that you are not good enough, who the fuck cares about you!

Fan Guanglie didn't think it either, and said: "According to the history books, during the Zhenguan period, there were big locusts in the world, because Emperor Taizong had profound virtues, and the locusts were not harmful. Could it be that Lord Assassin really believes in such a thing? ”

"What do you mean?" Sun Yan said suspiciously.

Fan Guanglie continued: "Hmph, that's just nonsense about local officials whitewashing the peace. This time, we will do the same trick again, if there is a locust plague, we will go with him, as long as we write 'locusts are not harmful' on His Majesty's paperwork. ”

it! Fan Guanglie, this is such a big dog!

When Sun Yangao heard this, his face turned green, and he said weakly: "Fan joins the army, this is a big crime of bullying the monarch by stealing the family and destroying the clan!" ”

"Hehe, the crime of deception?" Fan Guanglie said disapprerovingly: "If someone really exposes this matter, wouldn't it be pointed at Your Majesty and say that virtue is not deep?" Hehe, Xia Guan can't imagine that there will be such a stupid official in the huge Zhou officialdom! Lord Thorn Shi rest assured, no one will do such a foolish thing that harms others and is not beneficial to himself. Moreover, even if something really went wrong, the lower official would stand up and admit it, saying that I had stolen your seal and taken it all upon myself, and I would never let Lord Assassin Shi do any damage in the future! ”

Fan Guanglie paused, added another fire, and reminded: "In addition, don't forget our big event, if you really let Cui Erlang serve as the government office, once the East Window incident happens, you will have to raid your family and exterminate the clan, isn't it more serious than offending the two envoys?" ”

"You still say!" Sun Yangao shouted a little angrily, "At the beginning, the official thought that he was making a windfall, but who would have thought that he would be involved with those people!" It's you who led this official astray! ”

"Ahem, my lord, just now you boasted that the official is your Zhang Zifang!"

Fan Guanglie said unhappily: "Now you say that the lower official has led you astray!" But you don't want to think about it, once the matter is done, you can expect to be a prince and rest with the country! Besides, if you are really willing to help over there, Wang Zhu, the supervising imperial history, and Liu Laosi, the eunuch, may not be able to do anything to you. ”

"Okay, don't talk about it, this official understands. The thief ship will not come down if it goes down. Sun Yan waved his hand happily, unwilling to listen any further.

Later, the two of them discussed in the grove.

Sun Yangao came back again, and in the face of Wang Zhu and Liu Laosi's attitude, there was a sudden change.

He arched his hand slightly and said, "I don't know if the envoy wants to enter the city with his official or if he wants to go to Huangcheng Village to pass the decree to Cui Geng?" ”

"Huh?"

Liu Laosi's face sank at that time, and he shouted, "What? Listen to Sun Tingshi's meaning, or don't you want to give up your previous suspicions with Cui Changshi and shake hands and make peace? Hehe, Your Majesty's will has been issued, let you wait for the two of you to join forces to get rid of the locusts, do you want to resist the will and not obey it? ”

"Where?" Sun Yangao said: "It's not that the official doesn't want to see Cui Erlang, but he occasionally feels cold, and now he can't support it." ”

Liu Laosi sneered: "Occasional cold? It's a joke! Your Majesty is the King of Wisdom, how can you be deceived by your pretexts? Sun Yangao, you just wait to hear the ginseng. ”

How smart Wang Zhu is, he instantly understood that the taste was coming, could it be that Sun Yangao said those words to himself before, all your mother was fooling the official?

Immediately, he also sneered: "Sun Tingshi's illness can come strangely." I'm afraid that the so-called Cui Erlang just now is extremely arrogant, it's all nonsense, right? ”

Anyway, he had already torn his face, Sun Yangao simply broke the jar and broke it, arched his hand and said: "The official is not in good health, so he will not accompany him." ”

After speaking, Shi Shiran turned around and left, followed by Fan Guanglie.

“……”

Liu Laosi and Wang Zhu looked at each other, both feeling unbelievable as if they were in a dream, obviously shocked by Sun Yangao's attitude towards the two of them!

The two of them, one of whom was ordered to inspect the imperial history of the governors of various state capitals in Hebei Province, had the right to kill and take away; One is the chamberlain who came to deliver the decree by the Holy Order, and the close attendant of the Son of Heaven who can whisper two words in Her Majesty's ear at any time.

Such two living figures stood in front of Sun Yangao, Nima, he still dared to shake his face, and dared to hang the two of them directly outside the city?

It's unbelievable, is this Dingzhou still the Dingzhou of the imperial court, or the Dingzhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty?

Just as Sun Yangao, Fan Guanglie and others had just taken a few steps, the sound of bells and bells gradually came.

The crowd followed the prestige, and as the bells rang for the horses, another cavalry galloped in.

Most of these people are dressed in narrow-sleeved shirts, with small pigtails flying, wide foreheads, small eyes, and noses, and they look different from the Central Plains, and they are obviously the neighbors next door in Dingzhou - Turks!

The person who rode the horse at the head saw that he was around fifty years old, and said in a loud voice: "Hey, didn't you say that the Dingzhou officials are all here?" Where is that Dingzhou Governor Stregeng? Hurry up and take the official to see that guy! ”

Sun Yangao's courage was really not big, and when he saw these Turkic cavalry, he was immediately frightened and turned pale, and he couldn't even move his steps from the two battle stations.

Wang Zhu stepped forward and shouted, "Who are you?" ”

"Is it Wang Yushi on the other side?"

In the group of Turkic cavalry, a man in a light cyan official robe slowly walked out and said, "Zhang Xingrang, the head of the Ministry of Rites, is under the Xianai." ”

Why did the officials of the Ministry of Rites of the Great Zhou get mixed up with the Turkic officials?

Wang Zhu and Zhang Xingrang in Chang'an, there were several encounters, and asked: "Director Zhang is invited, they are ...... people"

Zhang Xing, the director of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Oh, they are Turkic envoys, and they want to ask me for peace with Da Zhou, no, I am ordered to escort them all the way." ”

And pro?

This time, everyone present was stunned, because Wu Zetian had already issued an edict a few days ago, did he refuse to kiss?

How long has it been since this Nima, why has the old thing been brought up again?
