081 Demotion of officials
Xiao Zhan sat on the stone bench next to him and poured himself a cup of tea.
"General Li once made great military achievements, and as long as he did not admit the crime, Lord Tingwei could not convict him of capital crimes."
Hua Fei sat down and said anxiously: "Even if you can't be sentenced to death, with Zhao Quan's temperament, you will definitely not give up, and you can't escape the crime of living." ”
Xiao Zhan looked at the cup in his hand and was distracted, and only after a while did he say: "It's a big deal to demote officials, and the most serious thing is exile." ”
Hua Fei patted the table and stood up: "How can this be?!" It's obviously not the one General Li killed, how can he be blamed! ”
Xiao Zhan looked up at her and said with a faint smile: "What are you excited about?" In recent years, you have been following your father in battle, and you have no friendship with him. ”
"It's not a question of friendship, I have a righteous heart, and I can't see people being wronged."
The smile on Xiao Zhan's face was even worse.
"Rest assured, this is only to let the enemy let his guard down, and he will not really be wronged. We already have some of the evidence, but we can't get out of the final messenger behind us. When the time comes, he will naturally be rehabilitated. ”
As he spoke, he waved to Huafei and motioned for her to come to him.
Hearing this, Hua Fei was a little relieved, walked up to him obediently, and sat on his lap by herself.
Xiao Zhan was stunned, he just wanted her to sit next to him, but he didn't expect her to be so conscious.
The curvature of the corners of the mouth has reached a new high.
Hua Fei didn't know about her behavior, but asked with a serious face: "You mean, we are now putting a long line to catch big fish?" ”
Xiao Zhan wrapped his right hand around her waist and nodded dotingly.
"I've asked someone to bring a message to General Li and ask him to act according to the plan."
In the next few days, the court was full of discussions about General Li's murder, and there were many people who spoke for General Li, but unfortunately they could not produce evidence and could not be convinced.
And Zhao Quan's side was sad and indignant at the loss of his beloved son, and united with the officials who usually made good friends, and asked the saint to uphold justice for his son and convict General Li.
After some investigation, interrogation and disputes, the emperor ordered the removal of General Li Kangchengwei from his official position and demoted him to Fuzhou as a general guarding the city.
Fuzhou was far away from the capital, crossing several counties, because he was afraid that Li Kangcheng would abscond halfway, the general Hua Sheng also suggested that someone supervise him to take office.
is called the overseer, but it is actually an escort, and when it reaches the border of Fuzhou, it will be taken over by the Fuzhou county guard, and the supervisor can return.
And this candidate for supervision, Hua Sheng recommended his eldest daughter who had been married, the young lady of the Zhenguo Mansion Hua Fei.
Ever since he was reprimanded by Leng Zhaoyi that time, he also felt that there was something wrong with his eldest daughter.
Thinking of everything that had happened when he had returned to the door before, this thought was even more in his mind.
With Xiao Zhan protecting him, he can't do anything with her, but it doesn't mean that he can't do anything with her.
Hua Fei has a public position and is a charge general under him, although he doesn't need to go to war recently, he still has the right to mobilize her.
Usually unknown, but this time, he will not let go of this opportunity.
There are many mountain bandits on the way to Fuzhou, and there are even Crouching Tiger Gangs who have not been exterminated by the imperial court several times, and this trip is full of dangers.
Even if those bandits heard that their reputation was jealous, he could artificially create some bandits to come out, and he would definitely let them go and never return.
In the Mufeng Garden, Hua Feiben and Fu Dong Qingzhi were fighting, and when they heard the holy decree, they thought they had heard it wrong.
As Lan Ying hurried to the front hall, seeing that Xiao Zhan was already standing upright in the hall, she hurriedly trotted over.
Whispered, "What's going on?" ”
Xiao Zhan's face was solemn and did not answer.
When Gonggong Chi, who announced the decree, saw her coming, he immediately opened the holy decree, and his sharp voice sounded: "When the weather is good, I am hereby ordered to ......."
Hua Fei and Xiao Zhan hurriedly bowed down to accept the order.
The more she heard the back, the richer Hua Fei's face became.
So much so that he had been secretly glancing at Xiao Zhan on the side with suspicious eyes.
What the hell is going on, why is this still affecting her?
"General Hua, still don't accept the order?"
It wasn't until she heard Gonggong Chi's questioning words that Hua Fei reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward to receive the order: "The minister obeys the order." ”
After sending away Father-in-law Chi, Hua Fei rushed to Xiao Zhan with the holy decree.
She held up the holy decree in her hand and said indignantly, "Say, what's going on! ”
Xiao Zhan only got the news today, and he didn't get much earlier than the Holy Decree, and he was also a little caught off guard.
He took the holy decree in his hand and looked at it carefully, and after being silent for a long time, he pretended to be calm and said, "Just go out for a walk." ”
Hua Fei looked hehe: "Take a walk? This step is also quite far away, but I am afraid that it will be scattered and there will be no return. ”
Li Kangcheng was demoted to Fuzhou, and anyone with a discerning eye knew that there was a hidden crisis in this trip, and she went to Li Kangcheng to bury her if she didn't do a good job.
Looking at her puffing appearance, Xiao Zhan stepped forward and hugged her waist and said, "Don't worry, my husband won't let you go alone." ”
Hua Fei's eyes lit up: "You mean you will go with me?" ”
With Xiao Zhan by her side, her heart will be much more stable.
Xiao Zhan was very relieved to see that she finally relied on him, and raised his eyebrows: "There is a holy decree in the saint, stipulating that I must not leave the capital for more than two days, if I leave the city and do not come back, I will be punished for collaborating with the enemy and treason." ”
Hua frowned: "And this matter?" ”
"Of course, this is a secret order, and it is not declared to the public."
Hua Fei pondered for a while, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Suddenly, she pushed him away, pointed at him angrily, and said, "What you mean is that you can't go to Fuzhou with me!" Need to beat around the bush? Hmph, I know that you men are all unkind, and you told me to be careful last night, and today you found a reason to send me away. ”
As soon as Lan Ying stepped on the threshold with his front foot, he heard Hua Fei's words and couldn't help coughing lightly.
The two maids who followed behind lowered their heads and blushed, and at the same time held back a smile.
Hua Fei heard the sound of the blue shadow behind her, her body instantly stiffened, and the expression on her face was as if she had fallen into a dye vat, colorful.
took a deep breath, turned around and smiled: "Hehe, I'm joking, my husband is so elegant, how can he say such frivolous words?" ”
After that, he turned to Xiao Zhan and said, "I don't care, I don't want to go to such a far place alone!" I don't know the place well, and I don't have a place to rest, if I get lost and can't come back, I'll ...... I'll just ......"
After a while, she didn't have a reason, but suddenly felt that it was not bad to settle down and marry another husband on the spot.
Xiao Zhan didn't know what she was thinking, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, took her hand and said, "How can my husband be willing to let my little little baby leave alone?" You can rest assured. ”
After that, he gestured to the door with his eyes, and told her that there were many people here, and some things should not be discussed openly here.
