Chapter 319: The Too Smart Prince (2-in-1)
And so the king's treasurer's opinion on this matter passed.
But it just so happened that the six members of the team were close to the west of the city to sell rice and soup kitchen.
The city defense general who exempted them from taxes was the tiger general.
Zhang Feng also knew about this, and it was also Zhang Feng who ordered General Hu to be exempted from taxes.
Otherwise, General Tiger doesn't have that right.
I can only pay out of my own pocket to pay for the six members of the squad.
But the prince ordered, this is a matter of one sentence, and the household officials directly sealed the accounts.
This is also why Zhang Feng sees these six people doing things for the people, which must be a good thing, advocating this kind of wind direction.
People who do things for Daqi and people who do things for themselves must be 'good people' and people who can be used.
Tax-free, trivial.
But secretly, Zhang Feng also asked the Criminal Department to send some people to Guangwu City, 300,000 miles away, to check whether their sect existed.
It's best to find out one of the culprits of the destruction of the sect back then, and ask if there are these people in that sect.
Because this team of six people belongs to unknown monks in the Criminal Department, they are a little suspicious.
Of course, Zhang Feng will not wronged any good person.
Everything needs proof.
If it turns out that they are players, then they must find an opportunity to get in touch.
Maybe we can work together and help me get something done.
After all, they have a good plan for this 'business dispute', and they seem to be a smart person, and I believe that their efficiency will not be too bad.
But if it's not a player, on the contrary, it's really here to rob the king's shopkeeper business, then let it go.
Regarding business matters, as a prince, he will not be stingy to suppress anyone in his country.
At least not for now.
Zhang Feng is still relatively relaxed about this, so that even if they come to take refuge in themselves, they will not have any awkward emotions towards themselves.
No surprises.
When the reputation of the six members of the team spread, even if they targeted the shopkeeper Wang, even if they didn't mention it to the shopkeeper Wang, Zhang Feng had already paid attention to them.
This move of the six members of the squad seems to be ingenious.
But for Zhang Feng, as long as they dare to show a little bit of fame and give another order, then they will already be targeted by the Criminal Department.
The Criminal Department has the data of all the sects up and down the Daqi, and it is easy to check them.
But in fact.
The team of six people, and the three brothers of the Mo family, were just wary of which player was good at mixing, so they went to the court in advance, and then checked them.
So, they also have a backhand.
So even if any player colludes with the Criminal Department, let the Criminal Department investigate, and find out that they are not from that sect, including the previous hundred years, they have no trace in this world, and it is not certain that they are players.
Even this player in a high position wouldn't believe in anything incognito, and didn't believe that they just appeared at this time, why couldn't they show up two years earlier?
They can also throw the cauldron and push everything on the prince.
said that the prince's return to the emperor is a celebration in the world, and they must come to the imperial capital for a visit, try to make a move, be favored by the prince, and then the sect will be revived!
Such a reason is dignified and righteous.
The three brothers of the Mo family and the six members of the team did not believe that anyone dared to check the prince and dare to question the prestige of the prince.
Anyway, the reputation of the prince is an umbrella.
Maybe through being counter-investigated, after they really get to the prince, they can contact the prince faster, and finally fight back, saying that there is a problem with the whistleblower.
This is a yin move.
On the surface, it is to take refuge in the king's shopkeeper, and success is the best.
Secretly, the six members of the squad are also waiting for the players who are hiding in the imperial capital, and the players who are better than them will be baited one by one.
And also when the six members of the team sprinkled this net.
At noon the next day.
Located in the north of the city, in a large restaurant called 'Xianjiuju', it also welcomed four Qing brothers.
It's just that when they came here, they didn't sit down to eat and chat, nor did they look at the people coming and going outside the window, eavesdropping on the news, but walked towards the fifth floor of the top floor in one breath.
Because at this moment, there is a person sitting on the fifth floor, who is the clerk in charge of collecting people in the ministry.
It's just that this one is accepting people, and it is 'military officials'.
Or in other words, the six ministries all have a military rank and an official, and they recruit monks from all over the world.
As long as it is a void strength and an innocent identity, you can sign up.
Including the four Qing brothers, it was also in the past few days that they sorted out the identity of the monk of Youfang and made sure that there was no flaw in the slightest, and then decided to settle in the official department under the prince.
This is also in the minds of the four of them, the officials are controlled by the prince, and the pattern of receiving people is magnificent, and they don't care about their identity and background.
In layman's terms, the prince has a style and demeanor that is unquestionable.
In addition, their identities are finalized, so they are ready to come to the Ministry of Officials to try, like indigenous characters, to take refuge directly in an open and honest manner.
And the information about this clerk was also bought by them from Know-it-all.
I know that the clerks often come here for dinner, so let's make a point and have a chance encounter.
Anyway, for this clerk, such things often happen.
At the dinner table, a few glasses of wine were served, and the clerks were better able to agree, and they were better to enter the ministry.
Also at this time.
As Brother Qing and the four of them followed Xiao Er, they came to the clerk's private room, and Xiao Er left.
The clerk, who was about fifty years old and dressed in ordinary gray clothes, was not surprised to see four monks visiting and to hear that they were monks from the Wandering Circle.
For example, when I am often on the way to dinner, I see someone coming to 'sign up and interview'.
"Sit." The clerk falsely introduced the table in front of him, took out a hand towel and wiped the corners of his mouth, and directly changed from the way to eat and drink wine just now, and changed to the point: "I know about the travels of the four Taoist masters, but I will ask you more, why do several Taoist leaders want to report to the post of military attache of the Ministry of Officials?" β
"Learn martial arts and want to serve the court." Brother Qing took out the words that had been prepared for a long time.
Xiaozhou is also an expression of righteous words.
'How is it the same as a real interview..' Lao Zheng laughed in his heart, feeling that the clerk asked about something like asking some high-achieving students, why they should report to our 'small company'.
Can this be said to be small?
It's definitely going to be big, this company is really big!
It's a place I've dreamed of for a long time and fought for!
Again, the clerk really eats this set.
When he saw the righteous expressions of the four people, and the fact that these four were tribulation monks, he really cared about this 'refuge'.
But then, the clerk took a special look at the scorpion Taoist generously, and saw that the scorpion Taoist was secretive, but he didn't like it.
For a while, the clerk didn't care what realm he was, nor did he care that the aura of the scorpion man was a little gloomy, but with a command-like order: "Lift the cloak." And after joining the military attache of the Ministry of Officials, it is not allowed to hide like this. β
'What a big official..' Lao Zheng's heart moved, feeling that a big country is a big country, and such a commanding tone from above cannot be practiced in a while.
At least no matter how crazy he was, he didn't dare to shout at the monks when he was in Jindan.
But the clerk was right.
Originally, they came to take refuge, how could they hide and dare not see people?
The scorpion people wear a hat and cloak every day, which really looks like a 'wandering criminal', which damages the majesty of the imperial court.
'The Scorpion Man won't get angry, will he..' Xiaozhou knows the unruly character of the Scorpion Dao people, and he is afraid that the Scorpion Dao people should not turn their faces.
You know, this is Brother Qing's plan.
The Scorpion Dao people didn't agree at all, and it didn't look like they were being commanded by a small Jindan clerk.
At the same time, Brother Qing was indifferent to all this, knowing that the Scorpion Dao people would definitely respond.
You must know that in the world, if there are really people who understand the other side, then the eight achievements are enemies.
It was not as expected by Brother Qing.
When Xiaozhou Lao Zheng and the others thought that the scorpion people would leave with their sleeves brushed up.
The Scorpion Dao man turned up the corners of his mouth under the cloak, "Yes.."
As the words fell, he slowly lifted his cloak, revealing a somewhat pale but sinister face, which looked gloomy.
At this glance, it is obvious that it is a demon cultivator!
The clerk has read countless people, and of course he can feel the difference between the people of the Scorpion Dao.
But I saw this scene.
The clerk nodded habitually, and said secretly, "This person is also square, handsome, and superb, and will not lose the people of the ministry." β
As for whether it is an evil cultivator or a murderer.
It doesn't matter.
The realm of the Crossing Monk can be exchanged for a gold medal for them to avoid death.
The premise is that they only need to come into the ministry and do things honestly and serve the people wholeheartedly.
Otherwise, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if he makes any move that is not for the Great Qi, he will be investigated and killed by the Criminal Department.
It's not a cult, it's a cult.
In other words, it is just as Brother Qing thought.
The Great Qi Ministry accepts people, it is so generous, and it is also so rigorous and ruthless.
It's easy to enter, but after entering, it's difficult to do things and be a person.
And with the approval of the clerk, the file information of the four people was submitted to the ministry, approved by the servant of the ministry, and the book was sealed.
Afternoon.
Outside the East Palace Gate.
A father-in-law smiled and looked at a blue-shirted strategist and motioned for the prince to receive him.
The strategist walked happily for a while, and when he came to the palace, he saw the prince who had just put down the fold, and immediately kowtowed.
"Your Highness, what a great joy."
The strategist had a smile on his face, "I heard Lord He from the Ministry of Officials say that there are four monks who are willing to join the position of military attache of the Ministry of Officials!" In this way, there are ten more military attachΓ©s and monks in our Ministry of Rites, and they have a lot more than the Four Princes! β
"Oh?" The prince got up and walked to the steps in front of the table, and sat casually on the steps of the tiger skin shop, looking at the strategist who was still in a kneeling posture, "What is the identity of these four people, and where are they located?" What kind of family is it? β
The monk is more than just a symbol of strength.
A monk also means that there is a powerful sect or family behind him.
This is the 'second capital' and the second help favored by the prince.
Otherwise, how could they cultivate to the tribulation period if their sect was poor, this was a big problem.
"This.." When the strategist heard the prince's inquiry, his body immediately stiffened, and he said truthfully: "These four people are monks from Youfang, and they don't have any background."
"That's one less boost." The prince nodded slightly, then raised his palm again, motioning for the strategist to get up.
The strategist respectfully shook his hands, and after slowly getting up, he saw that the prince was pondering, and did not ask a 'very important matter', but carefully said this important matter,
"Your Highness, do you need to report the matter of these four people to the prince?"
If an unknown person enters the imperial capital and takes refuge in the princes, he needs to inform the prince.
As the first adviser by the prince's side, the strategist naturally knew about this.
That's why he mentioned it.
"Tell my uncle?" The prince looked at the strategist, but shook his head, "Don't mention this matter until this matter is implemented." β
The prince said, there was nothing to tell Zhang Feng.
When the strategist saw this, the corners of his eyes twitched, knowing that the prince had always been stubborn and self-serving, and he was not suspicious of employing people.
Therefore, many people like to take refuge in the prince.
But about the point of 'stubbornness for self-use', the prince himself does not know.
But as a strategist, of course, I have to give a small reminder that is vaguely meandering.
Mo said that this was about the prince, and the prince couldn't act so arbitrarily.
So the strategist thought about it and felt that he had to say.
It's just that the prince saw that the strategist wanted to speak, but as if he knew what he was going to say, he said directly: "In the past month, on the birthday of my father, thirty-two monks have joined the military attaches of various departments, and twenty-five monks have left from various departments, wanting to travel through the mountains and rivers and find a way to break through. β
When the prince said this, he looked at the strategist who hurriedly bent down and held his hand, making a listening gesture, "In the Great Qi country, the monks have always been free. Between coming and going, dozens of people enter and leave the imperial capital and various ministries every year.
Today, there are four monks who have entered the ministry.
If such a trivial matter is not examined in any way, he will tell his uncle, 'Say that these four people are from the cult,' and if you guess correctly, it will be good if you really catch the people in the cult."
This kind of credit is far more than the second and third brothers.
But if it is wrong, it will chill the hearts of the monks of the six departments, but it will not hurt or itch.
But big and small things, everything is reported to my uncle, and my uncle, who is tired and finally returns to the imperial capital to rest, finds out for me, so what's the use of me as a prince?
What is the difference between me and the third brother who has no self-defense and only knows how to listen to his father's words? Can my uncle take a fancy to me? Will you speak for me in the court? β
"This.." When the strategist heard this, he really felt that there was some truth.
It can't be said that the prince just wants to test the skills of their brothers through the affairs of the cult.
Let them check and see if they can distinguish which of these monks is a cult with ill intentions and which one is sincere in taking refuge in the imperial court.
If they didn't distinguish it, they would really report it, let the prince make a decision, come to review, I believe that the prince will definitely be disappointed, I feel that the prince is really the prince, he really doesn't do anything, and he wants to throw the burden.
It is possible that at the birthday banquet three days later, the prince praised the 'good news' of the second prince and others, and reprimanded the prince for 'not doing things'.
The saint will definitely be furious, and the consequences can be imagined.
So it's a test.
Or a test for their royal brothers.
However, people are also close and distant.
At least in the strategist's mind, the second prince is a member of the military department, and this does not need to be examined, the prince must be more or less towards him.
Although the third prince loves to play, he is quite thoughtful and is a difficult person, so the third prince will definitely think of testing this, and then take out a little achievement as a gift.
No matter how much the saint favors him, and it is the saint's birthday, the prince will give the saint more or less the son, and he will not reprimand him too much.
In the end, although the four princes were dedicated to the sage book, they held the power of the Ministry of Rites, and there were countless clever and talented strategists below to share his worries.
At this point, the four princes may or may not be aware of the prince's test, but the countless 'little cleverness' below have helped the four princes share their worries.
In the end, isn't it the prince who is in trouble?
When the strategist thought of this, he felt that his prince was really proficient in seeking power, and he could think of such a profound meaning!
The prince is testing their royal brothers and the prince's ability!
But what the prince and the strategist think, if Zhang Feng knows.
Zhang Feng would really praise them and carefully reprimand this 'intimate nephew'.
The prince is so smart, too clever.
is really worthy of being born in the royal family, and between the brothers competing for the position of prince, everything can hear a smell of 'test'.
But now, Zhang Feng doesn't know.
The crown prince also seemed to have seen everything through, and said categorically and arrogantly: "I know that my uncle is testing the skills of my brothers!" I am now the eldest son of the emperor, the crown prince, and the lord of the East Palace! Naturally, he will handle everything in every detail, and he will not disappoint his uncle!
I will definitely let my uncle know that handing over the position of prince to me will definitely make Daqi stronger and stronger, and all countries will tremble! β
