Chapter 377: There Is a Problem with the Well Water [6]

Su Wan was a little puzzled; "Bi Xiaoyao, why do you say that, maybe people rely on their own skills to sit in this position of Taishou, not on relationships."

Bi Xiaoyao sneered; "You're a princess, why are your thoughts so simple."

Su Wan glared at Bi Xiaoyao, it doesn't matter if she is a princess or not.

Bi Xiaoyao continued; "Some people may sit on a small county magistrate for a lifetime, but some people can be promoted quickly, in addition to this person's talent, there is another reason, that is, there is a good backer."

Su Wan retorted; "My father relied on himself to sit in the position of prime minister step by step, not only that, but my father is also the youngest prime minister since the founding of Northern Chu."

"I have to say that Prime Minister Su Cheng met a good emperor like the first emperor, and people of insight who have never met talents abound."

Su Wan pursed his lips and looked at Chu Mohan; "Don't sell Guanzi, the current Xiajiang City is too guarded, who is the person behind it? Or is he really capable and on the rise? ”

Chu Mo Handao; "As Bi Xiaoyao said, now this Lord Taishou, the person behind him is indeed not small, you know this person, I know everything."

Su Wan urged; "Don't sell it, hurry up and tell us who this person is."

Bi Xiaoyao also echoed; "That's it, don't sell it, hurry up."

Chu Mohan coughed lightly; "This person is not someone else, it is Li Ming, the general of Longwu."

Su Wan and Bi Xiaoyao were both a little surprised.

Su Wan Dao; "Many of the Li clan have been implicated in the matter of the three princes, although General Long Wu has not been implicated because the new emperor has no evidence of his rebellion."

"But the rest of the Li family, who are still officials, are not as good as before, and many of them have been demoted, why is this Lord Taishou not affected in any way."

Bi Xiaoyao interjected; "What else can it be, it seems that this Lord Taishou has more than just a relationship with General Long Wu!"

Chu Mohan nodded; "The Taishou of Xiajiang City and General Long Wu are uncles and nephews, and this Taishou is General Long Wu's nephew."

Su Wan pursed his lips and said with some indignation; "This relationship, no wonder this Taishou is not implicated, his uncle is not down, how can he be implicated."

Chu Mo Handao; "It can be seen that as long as General Longwu does not fall, the Li clan will not fall, and the Li clan will be able to turn over sooner or later."

"Li Ming's only son Li Zhi is dead, and Li Ming has no successor, let alone a nephew, even a nephew, or a nephew." Su Wan said disapprovingly.

Chu Mohan nodded weakly to Su Wan's little nose and said softly; "Then do you know what official position Li Ming's own nephew holds in the imperial court?"

Su Wan shook her head, she really didn't know.

"Then what official position does Li Ming's nephew hold in the court?"

Chu Mohan said with a smile; "Although Li Ming only has a son like Li Zhi, he has a lot of brothers, whether it is his own family or his concubine, Li Zhiguang has four or five nephews."

Su Wan knew that ancient people could give birth, but there were very few people like Li Zhi who only had one son.

"Some of his nephews are generals, and some are wealthy businessmen, and it is very difficult to uproot such an intricate Li family."

Su Wan looked at Chu Mohan's expression and suddenly became serious, and asked; "Are you trying to express something to me?"

Chu Mohan looked at her, his phoenix eyes narrowed; "I just want to say that my father arranged Shen Sijie to come to Xiajiang City as a county commander, and promoted the original county commander to be a taishou, my father's intention is so obvious, shouldn't we help him."

Su Wan frowned, she didn't understand what Chu Mohan meant by this.

"What are we going to help him? And since the former emperor knew that the current Taishou was Li Ming's nephew, why did he promote him to be Taishou. ”

"You're so stupid." Bi Xiaoyao Road; "I understand why, don't you understand?"

Su Wan glared at Bi Xiaoyao angrily; "What do you understand?"

Bi Xiaoyao put her hands around her chest and leaned her back against the door frame; "After all, the Bi family also has officials in the court, the Bi family is a big family, and these things in the big family are not as simple as being an official in the court."

"This Xiajiang City is like a rotten apple, it looks like a rotten hole on the surface, but in fact, it has rotted inside, and the golden jade is ruined on the outside, and the first emperor put the disappointment of rectifying Xiajiang City on Shen Sijie."

The first emperor had high hopes for Shen Sijie.

Chu Mo Handao; "As Bi Xiaoyao said, no matter whether his father has high hopes for Shen Sijie or not, he is indeed a rare good official, and if he can help him, he will help him."

While the three of them were talking, the little maid walked over.

The little maid saluted Chu Mohan and Su Wan; "His Royal Highness the Night King, the Night Princess, and this son, dinner is ready."

Su Wan nodded.

The three of them came to the dining room.

The night scene and the cold snow have arrived.

I didn't see Shen Sijie.

Su Wan asked; "Where's your master?"

The little maid said respectfully; "Our lord said he had something to deal with."

Su Wan nodded.

Looking at the coarse tea and light rice on the table.

Leng Xue'er lowered her voice and said in Su Wan's ear; "Except for this little maid, there is no other person in this county government, and these dishes are still bought on the street by me and her in the afternoon."

Su took a bite of the dish and put it in his mouth.

"It seems that Lord Shen usually eats very lightly."

Luckily, they don't pick and choose.

The little maid was a little surprised that they had eaten all the dishes.

At first, she was apprehensive.

I thought that the night princess, who was used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, couldn't get used to eating these dishes she made that didn't even have a little meat.

Unexpectedly, not only did they not dislike it, but they also ate all the dishes.

Before leaving the dining room, Su Wan specially instructed the little maid; "Tomorrow morning's breakfast can be made into white porridge."

The little maid was stunned, and when she came back to her senses, Su Wan and the others had already left the dining room.

Early in the morning of the sophomore year, Su Wan and others were sitting in the dining room eating, and a servant reported it.

"My lord, Lord Taishou has come to Jiangcheng and said that they want to meet His Royal Highness the Night King."

Su Wan glanced at Shen Sijie, only to see that he said calmly; "Please go to the front hall with a few adults."

"Yes."

The official answered and left.

Shen Sijie looked at Chu Mohan and said respectfully; "Lord Wang, do you want to see them?"

Chu Mohan's tone was a little careless; "Since they want to see me, it doesn't matter if they do."

In the hall, several men gathered around and whispered.

"What is the purpose of this Night King's sudden coming to Xiajiang City?"

"It shouldn't be a private visit to Weifu, right?"

"You said it, it's a private interview with Weifu, if it's a private interview with Weifu, how can we know."

"His Royal Highness the Night King is the younger brother of the new emperor, you say, His Royal Highness the Night King came to Xiajiang City this time, could it be that the new emperor asked him to come and check on our affairs."

The official's voice grew quieter and quieter as he went.
