Wan Lin asked, "Has Lord Ji paid attention to the activities of the Jiji people in the territory of Wulin Mansion?" The country of Kiki is not far from Wulin Province, so there should be many people from the country of Kiji who come to Wulin Province to do business or live, right? ”

Ji Shaojun thought for a while and said: "Wulin Mansion is indeed not far from the country of Jiji, and before the drought, there were many people from Jiji who did business and lived here, but as soon as the drought occurred, they returned to China one after another. However, Xia Guan heard that the country of Jiji has also suffered from drought now, and the situation is even more serious than ours! ”

Wan Lin said worriedly: "The drought in Jiji Country is indeed worse than the drought in Wulin Province. Quanling County is the closest to Jiji Country, and if Jiji Country takes some extraordinary measures because the drought in the country cannot be alleviated, it is very likely to come to our Dachen to loot. ”

Ji Shaojun immediately said with a righteous face: "If Ji Jiguo dares to come to Dachen Hu to do wrong, the lower officials will definitely lead the soldiers and people of the whole state to drive them back with all their might!" ”

Wan Lin was even more worried, "Actually, if the Jiji Kingdom blatantly comes to loot, it will be better to clean them up." I'm afraid that they have used some shady tricks, such as bribing Dachen's people and officials, making them a gap between Jiji, and it will be difficult to do something that harms Dachen. ”

Ji Shaojun looked like a fat man who was addicted to wine and wealth, but he was born in a family and had read a lot of books since he was a child, and he was also very smart, and he immediately heard the meaning of Wan Lin's words.

"Lord Wan, has someone already been bribed?"

Ji Shaojun's reaction made Wan Lin very satisfied, but Wan Lin didn't answer immediately, but asked rhetorically: "Master Ji, you said that if those gold artifacts of the Chai family fall into the hands of the Ji Ji people, will they be able to exchange them for a lot of grain, grass and silver?" ”

"Ah, you mean ....."

Ji Shaojun suddenly understood why Ge Pu was being guarded very strictly, he may not only be accused of perverting the law for bribes, oppressing the people, and colluding with bandits.

Ge Pu he is treasonous!

Thinking of this, Ji Shaojun's back was cold.

Ge Pu is also an official under him, Ge Pu has committed such a serious crime, and he will inevitably be punished as Ge Pu's boss.

"Please also ask Lord Wan and Lord Qi to save the lower officials!"

Ji Shaojun suddenly knelt down.

"Master Ji, what are you doing here? Hurry up! ”

Wan Lin and Qi Hongkuo had to help him.

Ji Shaojun's head broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't care about wiping his sweat, and said worriedly: "If Ge Pu collaborates with the enemy and treason, he will definitely be sentenced heavily, and Xia Guan, as his immediate boss, may also be implicated." If he is punished for another crime, he will be willing to be punished. But if the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason affects the lower officials, then the lower officials are really wronged, and I ask the two lords of the Qin Cha to help the lower officials intercede! ”

Ji Shaojun said that he had to kowtow.

Wan Lin and Qi Hongkuo used a lot of strength together to help Ji Shaojun up.

Wan Lin first persuaded him: "Master Ji, you don't have to worry about this. Although Ge Pu is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason, he will not let you be implicated because of this. ”

Qi Hongkuo also comforted him: "Even if Your Majesty wants to investigate Ge Pu's treason with the enemy, he will reprimand you a few words, but Your Majesty has always been a saint, and he will definitely not condemn you." ”

Seeing that the two Qincha said this, Ji Shaojun's anxiety in his heart eased a lot.

"Thank you two for comforting the lower officials, the lower officials will not be afraid this time."

Speaking of this, Ji Shaojun sighed helplessly, "Alas, in the final analysis, it was the officials who were afraid of things so they didn't go to the bottom of the investigation that gave him so many opportunities to do evil!" ”

Wan Lin is not at all to blame Ji Shaojun, Ge Pu can get to this point, and he, the governor of a state, does have some responsibilities.

But the mountain of King Huan is not something that everyone has the courage to touch.

Wan Lin has seen a lot of officialdom battles in the past two years as an official, so he can forgive Ji Shaojun a little.

Especially seeing Ji Shaojun's performance in this drought, Wan Lin didn't want to worry about Ge Pu with him.

Wan Lin said to Ji Shaojun with a pleasant face: "Master Ji doesn't have to blame himself, after all, it's in the past." Now that you can care about the people, you are worthy of your official uniform, the court and the people. ”

Ji Shaojun shook his head guiltily, "No, no, the lower officials have not done enough, and they dare not say that they are worthy of the court and the people." ”

Wan Linyi waved his hand, "Master Ji doesn't have to be humble. Now he can basically confirm the charge of Ge Pu selling weapons to Jiji Kingdom, but he has not completely confessed to the matter of that batch of gold weapons. When the time comes, if there is a place where Mr. Ji needs to testify, please ask Mr. Ji to cooperate. ”

Ji Shaojun already knew it in his heart, and he hurriedly responded; "Yes, the lower officials will definitely try their best to cooperate with the investigation of Ge Pu at that time."

Qi Hongkuo said at this time: "The drought in the state capital has been alleviated, and Lord Wan and I have to go to other counties to check the drought situation, this Ge Pu will be temporarily detained in your place, and please Lord Ji must take strict care of him, and there must be no mistakes!" ”

Ji Shaojun replied affirmatively: "Please rest assured, the two Qincha lords, the lower officials will definitely guard Ge Pu strictly, and there will be no mistakes!" ”

Wan Lin instructed Ji Shaojun again: "That Ge Pu is very scheming, you must not interrogate him alone, you must remember this!" ”

Ji Shaojun replied affirmatively: "Don't worry, Lord Wan, the lower officials will definitely remember your and Lord Qi's advice." ”

Wan Lin and the others stayed in the state capital for a day, so they left Ge Pu here and continued to go to other counties for disaster relief.

Originally, Wan Lin was not too worried about leaving Ge Pu behind, but in case King Huan really sent someone to rob and kill Ge Pu, they would go back and forth between various county towns, which would increase the risk of Ge Pu being robbed and killed, so it would be better to let him be guarded in one place.

Moreover, the state capital is different from other places, there are a large number of officials and soldiers stationed here, and they can guard Ge Pu well.

They have been in touch with Wan Chang since they left Dongzhou County, Wan Zhang's body has completely improved, just like Xiao Enpei said, Wan Chang has gained several pounds of weight than before, and if he can get fat, it means that he has recovered his health.

In addition to the disaster has been alleviated, this is the most gratifying thing for Wan Lin and others.

It took them more than ten days to comprehensively deal with the disaster situation in Wulin Prefecture, and they were about to leave for Beijing.

Ji Shaojun can be said to be doing his best to guard Ge Pu, and Ge Pu really played some scheming as Wan Lin expected and wanted to contact Ji Shaojun alone.

But Ji Shaojun was never deceived by his scheming, and he didn't go to see him no matter what he said.

It was not easy to bring Wan Lin and his party back, and Ji Shaojun reported to them Ge Pu's performance these days.

Knowing that Ge Pu was just playing some tricks, but no one came to rescue or assassinate Ge Pu anymore, Wan Lin and the others were not so nervous.

Wan Lin guessed that King Huan might not have the means he thought, and he could still find the killer during the lockdown.

But Wan Lin thought about it carefully, and then thought that King Huan might have made another choice.

Wan Lin knew that Mrs. Ge was not a good stubble, so he kept detaining her in Quanling County, and only had people escort her to the state capital before returning to the capital.

It may be that Ge Pu and his wife have done too much evil, and they still don't have a man and a woman.

Wan Lin and Qi Hongkuo also said that this is not bad, lest their children be led astray, and once Ge Pu's crime is convicted, even the children will be implicated in his death.

When Mrs. Ge was escorted over, she made a lot of trouble.

Even the prison cart couldn't trap her.

She shouted at the top of her voice for King Huan to save her life, and cursed Wan Lin and Qi Hongkuo that they would definitely be retaliated against by King Huan, and cursed them for not dying well.

Mrs. Ge's rampant scolding couldn't even listen to Ji Shaojun, so she ordered someone to gag her mouth and tie her hands and feet.

Generally, the family members of criminal ministers would not be treated like this, and Mrs. Ge can be said to be the first person to be treated so specially.

The group finally embarked on the journey back to Beijing, and it had been nearly two months since they left the capital.

Since Mu Yunzhao gave Fang Qingqing a slap in King Jie's mansion, he hadn't seen her again, and King Jie had no movement.

Mu Yunzhao thought that his attitude at that time was very resolute, so King Jie and Fang Qingqing would no longer bother him, after all, he was now the prince of a country, and not everyone could provoke him.

But Mu Yunzhao did not relax his vigilance, and since that time, he has been sending people to secretly monitor Fang Qingqing, and found that she was almost at her mother's house and did not go out much.

It has been more than half a month since that day, and Lu Qiu Guangrui has lost some weight because of her morning sickness reaction, Mu Yunzhao accompanied her carefully, and gradually left behind the confused things that happened with Fang Qingqing.

Concubine Yun was really upset for a few days because she gave birth to a princess, but she pinned her hopes on Lu Qiu Guangrui.

As long as Luqiu Guangrui can give birth to the emperor's grandson, Concubine Yun's glory and wealth in the second half of her life don't have to worry about her.

The emperor also thought that if Concubine Yun Guifei ignored the little princess again, he would give the little princess to the queen to raise.

The change in Yun Guifei's attitude towards the little princess made the emperor dispel this idea, and the harem rarely stopped for a while.

The emperor got the news that Wan Lin and others had already escorted Ge Pu back to Beijing, and they could enter Beijing in three or two days.

The emperor also ordered someone to secretly spy on King Huan, and found that King Huan had not sneaked out again during this time.

If King Huan can clear up his relationship with Ge Pu, the emperor does not plan to pursue him anymore, this is the last mercy left by the emperor to King Huan.

Mu Yunzhao also learned that Wan Lin and his party would be back soon, and he also learned that Wan Lin was the one who arrested King Huan this time.

Mu Yunzhao knew that King Huan had recently taken refuge in King Jie, so he couldn't help but gloat a little, waiting for Wan Lin and the others to come back and watch the excitement.

Who knew that Mu Yunzhao wanted to see the excitement before he could see it, he himself let people watch the excitement.

Yun Guifei was coaxing the little princess this day, and a palace maid suddenly came over in a hurry and handed her something.

When Concubine Yun saw this thing, she immediately straightened her face and said eagerly: "Quickly take this palace to see her!" ”
