"What does Lord Tian want to do, what he says, you might as well say it directly, why hide it like this." Xiao Xiantang said coldly.

Tian Jianbi was a little embarrassed when he heard this, he really couldn't understand that Xiao Xiantang was fine just now, why did he just change his face when he said it?

Such an incomprehensible character was really unexpected by him, making him think that the other party was just a hairy boy with some ability at the beginning, and he naturally didn't dare to despise the other party anymore.

"I don't mean anything, but I just think that at this time, abandoning the car to protect the handsome is the best choice." Tian Jianbi said his thoughts, he thought about this matter from the beginning, he only accepted bribes for so many years, but he did not participate in smuggling, and he also had this mentality.

Even if he saw that those officials who intervened in smuggling made a lot of money, he endured it.

Facts have proved that his decisions are correct, at least even if Xiao Xiantang reports the Yanzhou smuggling case to the imperial court at this time, then he Tian Jianbi still has the possibility of turning over.

"What does Lord Xiao think?"

Seeing that Xiao Xiantang didn't speak, Tian Jianbi continued to say this, when he said these words, Tian Jianbi did not use his own official or his own government, but directly used the word "I", which seems to be an inconspicuous small detail, but also reveals a variety of information in it, as long as there is a heart, it can naturally be detected.

Xiao Xiantang looked at Tian Jianbi and sneered for a long time: "As the prefect of Yanzhou, don't you think it's ridiculous for Lord Tian to say such things?" ”

"In this way, I naturally don't think it, after all, I am in the game, but I really don't know what to say or do, it is right." Tian Jianbi said meaningfully.

Xiao Xiantang just sneered: "If Lord Tian thinks that this official is young and easy to bully, then it is a big mistake. ”

"Lord Xiao, this official is just telling the truth." Tian Jianbi saw that Xiao Xiantang didn't eat oil and salt, and he also lost his patience a little, so he simply tore his face.

What he is relying on now is actually that although Xiao Xiantang is ruthless, he himself is also in the whirlpool of Yanzhou, if he Tian Jianbi falls, he Xiao Xiantang will not be able to get any benefits, and even before he dies, he will bite him out.

This is half a discussion, half a threat, and Xiao Xiantang, who listened to it, sneered again and again: "Do you think that Lord Tian has not killed you until now, because he is worried that he will be dragged into the chaos in Yanzhou?" ”

"Isn't it?" Tian Jianbi looked at Xiao Xiantang, the navy had besieged the warships of the state capital for so long, and it was completely possible to kill them all, but he didn't, he just hoped that he would be soft, like this, isn't it just to be able to whitewash the peace and turn the matter of Yanzhou over?

Since he knew that he would inevitably not die, Tian Jianbi straightened his waist, because he knew that if Xiao Xiantang didn't want to be charged with rebellion, he must have to ask for himself and testify himself, so he should be worried, it is not he Tian Jianbi who should lower his eyebrows, but Xiao Xiantang.

"Lord Tian has ever wondered why this official came to Yanzhou?" Xiao Xiantang looked straight at Tian Jianbi.

Tian Jianbi was stunned by Xiao Xiantang's words, and a bad conjecture faintly rose in his heart, so he asked, "Why?" ”

"Sea ban." Xiao Xiantang said with a sneer.

When Tian Jianbi heard this, his face changed greatly: "You...... You...... You are a man of the court! ”

No wonder, I always felt that something was wrong before, this Xiao Xiantang came too weird, obviously he made a great contribution, but he was degraded to a small place like Longtong County, Yanzhou as a small county order, although everyone speculated, saying that Emperor Sheng intended to reuse him, but although his merits are there, the foundation is shallow, only such a gradual promotion, can he be entrusted with a heavy responsibility without letting people point fingers behind his back, but people with a discerning eye understand that this Emperor Sheng is afraid that he is not on Xiao Xiantang, and feels that Xiao Xiantang is not doing things properly, but Xiao Xiantang still has some merits, it's not good to pass the buck directly, so I can only fight far away like this.

Although, I guessed so in my heart, but I felt that something was wrong, such as Xiao Xiantang's father-in-law, which was the living note in front of Emperor Sheng, and the position of living note was generally held by close attendants.

That Mu Yuanshan was originally the prefect of Qingzhou, and after being transferred to Dadu, he was promoted to the sixth grade of revision, and then it didn't take long for him to be arranged as a living note, although after becoming a living note, he did not change the grade, and it was still only a sixth grade, but the six products of the Hanlin Academy, and the six products that followed Emperor Sheng's side, can it be the same?

Therefore, with such a father-in-law, Xiao Xiantang really shouldn't be reduced to a small sesame official when he is not at fault.

There is also Xiao Xiantang's lady who always hides in the backyard of the county government, named Bao Qiu, he was only a little woman who didn't go out of the door at first, and later found out that this was also a famous woman, and the woman who was preached by a group of women did not let Mu Ajiu be Xiao Xiantang's wife.

Speaking of that Mu Ajiu, it is a very remarkable, it is said that she was born with divine power, in order to save the people, withstood the entire lighthouse bamboo tower, and I heard that the two above, for such a Mu Ajiu, fight to the death, it seems that it is to launch the female official policy, just because of this Mu Ajiu's sudden departure from the capital, the entire female official plan has changed, for this reason, the Queen Mother is very annoyed.

Therefore, Tian Jianbi was guessing, maybe this Xiao Xiantang was demoted to Longtong County in Yanzhou, also because his wife was too eye-catching, Emperor Sheng respected the Queen Mother on the surface, but he was not happy with the Queen Mother's female official plan, so in order to avoid the Queen Mother from electing Mu Ajiu as the first female official, and then continuously introducing new female officials, and finally trying to seize power and participate in politics, it seems that Xiao Xiantang was deliberately called here with Mu Ajiu, so as to explain that Xiao Xiantang was unreasonably demoted.

Most of the places are much deeper than the water in their Yanzhou.

"Lord Tian has not forgotten that you and I are both from the DPRK." Xiao Xiantang did not answer Tian Jianbi's words directly, but made a sloppy look, vaguely pointing out that both of them were from the court.

Tian Jianbi's face was ugly, he kept guessing in his heart, thinking about Xiao Xiantang's origin, thinking about the origin of Xiao Xiantang's wife, and then thinking about the soldiers that Xiao Xiantang transferred inexplicably, as well as a person in the rivers and lakes who was elusive and mixed with the Medicine Sect, he suddenly felt that the more Xiao Xiantang looked at it, the more he looked like an official who was sent down by Emperor Sheng to investigate the affairs of Yanzhou, and his face was pale with fright at the moment, and he was drenched in cold sweat: "Lord Xiao, if there is anything to order, you might as well say it directly, this ...... I, Tian Jianbi, should be an adult. ”
