Chapter Ninety-Seven: The aggrieved Cui Daoyuan

"I've seen the governor, I've seen my father-in-law." Before the governor and father-in-law approached, Cui Daoyuan had already bowed and saluted.

"Young uncle, this is Gonggong Liu from the capital." The governor took the initiative to introduce Cui Daoyuan to Gonggong Liu, who came from the capital to issue the decree.

Cui Daoyuan hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects.

At this moment, Cui Daoyuan's arrogance and ruthlessness have been completely restrained, and he is very polite and polite in front of the governor and Gonggong Liu, and he looks loyal and gentle.

Cai Weizhou, who was on the side, snorted coldly in his heart, this Cui Daoyuan pretended to be a grandson, but he pretended to be quite similar.

At this time, Cui Daoyuan was also beating drums in his heart.

For some reason, Cui Daoyuan always felt that the governor's face was not very good-looking. He muttered a little in his heart.

"Haha, Lord Cui is too polite."

This father-in-law Liu was very kind, looking at the sprinkled and clean at the door of the mansion, and seeing a full set of incense cases at the door, he smiled with satisfaction.

"Thank you father-in-law for the compliment, father-in-law's trip is so hard." Cui Daoyuan was very modest, and after saying it respectfully, he took out a purse that had been prepared a long time ago from his cuff and quietly stuffed it into his father-in-law's hand.

The father-in-law pinched it, and felt that it was not a large piece of silver in his purse, but a thin silver ticket, and his face showed a knowing smile.

"Lord Cui is so polite. The miscellaneous family will definitely report to the lord, and His Majesty has skills and teachings. Father-in-law Liu said with a smile.

Cui Daoyuan was confused by this father-in-law's words.

What kind of royal majesty has a skill? What is well taught? What does it all mean?

But in front of so many onlookers, Cui Daoyuan really didn't want to ask, so he had to deal with it indiscriminately and vaguely and smiled.

Governor Wang Zheng's face became even more gloomy.

Hmph, he actually crossed him as a governor and went directly up to Bai Luo to show his merits, Cui Daoyuan really didn't take him seriously.

Wang Zheng thought that Bai Luo's commendation order this time was asked by Cui Daoyuan for him, and he was very uncomfortable with Cui Daoyuan's move.

And Cai Weizhou, who had been standing in the crowd, heard Gonggong Liu say that "His Majesty has a technique and a good way to teach", and when he realized something, a smile of surprise and admiration quietly appeared on his face.

After a few greetings between the three of them, this Gonggong Liu took out the holy decree in the box from the hands of the Imperial Forest Army who came with him and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is not too early, and it is important for the miscellaneous family to issue the decree first." ”

"Exactly, exactly." Cui Daoyuan couldn't wait for a long time, hurriedly put on the incense case, dressed properly, and respectfully knelt on the futon brought by the servant and bowed his head, everything was ready, just waiting for Gonggong Liu to issue the decree.

All the onlookers also held their breath, waiting to listen to the decree of the imperial court.

The entrance of the county government was silent for a while.

But Cui Daoyuan, who was kneeling on the futon, didn't hear Gonggong Liu's voice for a long time, he looked up suspiciously, and saw Gonggong Liu looking at him with a strange face.

The governor on the side had a gloomy face and was looking at him with disdain.

"Father-in-law Liu, is this ......?" Cui Daoyuan's heart moved, he felt that something was wrong, and knelt on the futon and asked tentatively.

Then Gonggong Liu asked in surprise, "Doesn't Lord Cui know about this commendation order?" ”

"Cui doesn't know ......"

What does he want to know? Cui Daoyuan wondered.

"It's good that the miscellaneous family is here to give a commendation order this time, but this commendation order is not for Master Cui, but for Bai Luo."

As soon as these words came out, Cui Daoyuan was stunned at first, and then his face turned red, as if he had been slapped in public, only to feel ashamed and annoyed, and he was embarrassed.

"This, this ......" Cui Daoyuan stammered speechless.

But Gonggong Liu continued: "The miscellaneous family arrived in Lanzhou, and only then did they know from the governor that Bai Luo was in the prefect's mansion, so he came directly from the governor to issue the decree." ”

For the sake of the purse, Gonggong Liu carefully explained the ins and outs to Cui Daoyuan.

Gonggong Liu's words and explanations were also heard by the onlookers.

For a while, everyone thought that this scene was absurd and funny, and the prefect who was still majestic and complacent just now, and who was beaten and dismissed from his post and wanted to be rewarded, made such a big ugly appearance in the blink of an eye.

I don't know who it was, but there was a "poof" laugh in the crowd.

And this sneer, like turning on a switch, all the people secretly laughed.

And Daniel Zhang and other villagers of Baijia Village deliberately laughed at Cui Daoyuan unceremoniously.

These sarcastic laughter pierced Cui Daoyuan's ears like a sharp needle, making his face turn from red to white, his chest was as aggrieved as a mouthful of old blood, and the fishy breath rushed straight to his throat.

His mind was like a piece of mush, and he couldn't react to Gonggong Liu's words.

Why was this commendation order given to Bai Luo?

Why did Bai Luo get the commendation order?

Cui Daoyuan only felt that his face was hot, and the complicated and solemn court clothes on his body and the beam crown on his head were so heavy that he couldn't lift his head.

And being so embarrassed in front of everyone's eyes made him stiffen all over, his hands and feet didn't obey the call, and he couldn't get up from the futon for a long time.

Cai Weizhou was deflated by Cui Daoyuan a lot, and he suffered a lot of anger, and at this time, he finally saw him humiliate himself in front of everyone, and his heart was really comfortable.

He walked out of the crowd with a smile on his face, walked up to Cui Daoyuan, and congratulated: "Congratulations to Lord Cui, congratulations to Lord Cui." His Royal Highness Lord Cai is so generous, Cai really admires and admires. ”

Cui Daoyuan, with the support of Su Tongzhi, finally stood up, and was so angry that Cai Weizhou's gloating words turned blue.

After ridiculing Cui Daoyuan, Cai Weizhou saluted the governor and Gonggong Liu, and said: "Cai Weizhou, the imperial envoy of the Lanzhou Metropolitan Procuratorate, has seen the governor and Gonggong Liu. ”

"Lord Cai is polite." The governor doesn't mind, there is no one in the city who is not deep in this position, so naturally he will not be angry for Cai Weizhou's rudeness.

Cui Daoyuan didn't pretend to be loyal and honest at the moment, and said gloomily: "Lord Cai's congratulations, Cui really doesn't dare to take it." ”

Gonggong Liu, who had already cultivated in the imperial city, had already seen that something was wrong with this matter at this time.

It is said that the political achievements of the subordinates are all evaluated and declared by the superiors, so the superiors should know what kind of commendation the subordinates can receive.

But this prefect Cui obviously didn't know about Bai Luo's award, which was originally a very strange and unusual thing.

Gonggong Liu is just a father-in-law in the imperial city who is not of a high grade, so naturally he will not know that Bai Luo's commendation order was designed by Liu Zhiran directly from the emperor.

However, although Gonggong Liu muttered in his heart, he didn't show it at all, as if the scene just now hadn't happened.

And the reason why the governor's face was gloomy was also because he didn't know about Bai Luo's reward.

Originally, he was angry that Cui Daoyuan privately invited credit for Bai Luo and didn't know about him, but now it seems that Cui Daoyuan didn't know about Bai Luo's commendation order.

However, whether Cui Daoyuan invited credit for Bai Luo or not, or whether Cui Daoyuan knew it or not, it was a fact that Cui Daoyuan did not control his subordinates effectively.

Today, Lanzhou Mansion is so embarrassed that Wang Zheng also feels shameless.

At this time, the governor Wang Zheng had already given birth to Cui Daoyuan, and unconsciously gave birth to a little mustard.

Only Cai Weizhou faintly guessed some of the origin of this commendation order in his heart, and he was a little more convinced of the history of the academy.

The adult's trick is really amazing, and with a light move, he will eliminate Bai Luo's final crisis invisibly.
