Chapter 370: Threatening Them

No one dared to speak, let alone answer Wen Qiao's question. Fortunately, these officials are all old people who have been officials for more than ten years, although they are far away in the south, unlike Wen Qiao, who goes to court every day, but they have no less experience than Wen Qiao.

What's more, they are much older than Wen Qiao, their qualifications and age are here, Wen Qiao is just a hairy boy temporarily sent by the emperor from the capital! This is Fuzhou instead of the capital, so what if Wen Qiao has great rights in the capital? When he arrived in Fuzhou, all of his things were useless!

"What? Do you want me to ask you to answer in person? Wen Qiao said, pressing the short knife pinned to his waist with one hand. He stared at the officials with gloomy eyes, and his words were threatening.

These four officials are Wang Ai, the prefect of Fuzhou, Gu Yuan, the prefect of Wuzhou, Fu Xie, the prefect of Tongzhou, and Ji Su, the prefect of Yongzhou. The four places of Fuwu and Tongyong are the most prosperous and populous cities in the south, and the development of the flood has not only not gotten the slightest improvement, but has become more and more intense, and it seems that it will continue to make trouble.

When he left the capital, Wen Qiao personally promised to deal with the flood, and it had been ten days since he came to Fuzhou to count the time, but he had not done anything in these ten days. I didn't even get the annual output account book in the hands of these four prefects.

There have been a number of displaced people in the city of Fuzhou, who have no houses and now have problems even eating and sleeping. If the flooding problem is not resolved, it will only happen more.

"Hey!" Wang Ai suddenly sighed heavily, and he said, "Lord Wen, what do you think should be done about this matter?" As long as you open your mouth, we will definitely support you fully!" The title of Wen Qiao suddenly changed from Wen Shizi just now to the current Lord Wen, and the attitude here is really intriguing.

Wen Qiao didn't give any expression, his eyes slowly swept over everyone's bodies, seeing that their backs were cold, and when they were about to hold on, he slowly threw the question back to them, "A few adults have been in Fuzhou for so long and haven't come up with any solutions?"

His question made the faces of the four prefects change one after another, Wuzhou prefect Gu Yuan flicked the non-existent dust on his sleeve, his originally low head suddenly raised, he looked at Wen Qiao and said: "The way is naturally thought of, but hasn't Lord Wen seen it for so long?"

"Now the whole of Fuzhou is in chaos, most of the young people have escaped, this Fuzhou is now a dead city, what does Lord Wen want us to do?"

It has been ten full days since he came to Fuzhou, and in these ten days, Wen Qiao still tried his best to do something at the beginning, but as these days passed, the attitude of these prefects towards him gradually made him understand, not that he didn't want to do things seriously, but because he was there, these people didn't want to listen to him.

Such an attitude made Wen Qiao feel funny, the four prefects of the four prefects were already to blame for such a thing, and the matter had developed to this point, not only did they not do anything to remedy it, but also tried their best to stop Wen Qiao from various aspects.

Time passed minute by minute, and gradually, Wang Ai and the others couldn't stand it. They moved, and there was no patience in their eyes when they looked at Wen Qiao, Gu Yuan stood up directly, and said without hesitation: "Lord Wen, I see that it is getting late today, let's discuss it another day."

After speaking, Gu Yuan actually wanted to leave directly. Seeing this scene, Wen Qiao's eyes turned red, he touched the short knife pinned to his waist, and the sound was the piercing sound of the short knife coming out of the sheath, and before everyone could react, Wen Qiao had already flashed behind Gu Yuan.

The blade of the knife had already crossed Gu Yuan's neck when his wrist flipped over, "If Lord Gu really wants to leave today, it is better to let Ben give you a ride." ”

Wen Qiao exuded a murderous aura all over his body, his short knife was less than a little finger away from Gu Yuan's neck, as long as he moved slightly, he could make Gu Yuan's blood splash three feet on the spot in an instant.

"Lord Wen!" This move frightened everyone, Wang Ai stood up and stretched out a hand to Wen Qiao, signaling him to stop his hand cleanly.

And Gu Yuan was so frightened by him that he didn't dare to speak, and even his breathing slowed down a lot, for fear that he would accidentally provoke Wen Qiao to be angry.

But at such a dangerous moment, Wen Qiao's voice was calm. He lowered his head to see Gu Yuan's reaction, and slowly spit out a few words in his mouth, "Master Gu, do you think I dare to press this knife down against you?"

"Dare, you naturally dare! Master Wen, let me go first, can we talk well?" Gu Yuan's breath was unsteady when he spoke, obviously he was already frightened by Wen Qiao's behavior.

But Wen Qiao didn't let go of him as he had, but instead added a little more strength to the short knife in his hand, and the blade had already cut Gu Yuan's skin, "Gu, Lord Gu!" Be merciful!" Gu Yuan shouted.

As long as Wen Qiao gently pulled the knife again, blood could be seen on Gu Yuan's neck immediately. "Then let me ask you, what about the grain production books of your places this year?"

Although he was asking Gu Yuan's words, his eyes fell on Wang Ai's others. These four places in the south, among which Fuzhou and Wuzhou are the mainstays, this time the four prefects, the other two people are following Wang Ai and Gu Yuan.

As long as the two of them are solved first, then the other people and things will not be difficult at all. Wang Ai and Gu Yuan are old foxes who have been officials for more than ten years, and if you don't be ruthless to them, they will always play wheel warfare with you. Wen Qiao was impatient, he had been impatient in the past ten days.

"Lord Wen, you're breaking the law!" Wang Ai looked at Wen Qiao and said. These words didn't work at all for Wen Qiao at this time, and this sentence still came out of Wang Ai's mouth, which was even more ridiculous.

He thought so in his heart, and he did the same on his face, and he asked with a sarcastic smile: "Lord Wang, do you still want to go to the palace to talk to Your Majesty?"

He pushed Gu Yuan and walked inside, and then said to Wang Ai: "If I really solve Lord Gu now, Lord Wang, do you want to think about avenging Lord Gu?" And then what do you think Your Majesty will do about it?"

The answer is naturally obvious, Wen Qiao is the most outstanding one among the younger generation, and he will definitely have a more brilliant career in the future. And Wang Ai and these people, as long as Wen Qiao stabs them in front of the emperor for their unfavorable affairs, what awaits them will only be a dead end.

No one wants to seek death for no reason, Wen Qiao can probably guess what these few are doing to him like this. If they were smart enough to give him some fake things, he might have spent more time to verify them, but these people just dragged him until he couldn't wait until they were the ones who suffered.
