"Feast?" Yu Feng held the teacup in his hand, raised his eyebrows with a smile, and looked at Shi De, who was sitting next to the desk, full of flattery: "Shang Cai is upright, Shi Zhizhou's lunch is early." ”

The group entered the main hall, and as soon as the hustle and bustle came to an end, Shi De couldn't wait to invite Yu Feng to move to the main courtyard of the back house - he wanted to entertain the Qin Cha, of course, he "humbly" came out of the main courtyard, which was not as good as the usual hospitality, and placed it in the guest house.

But earlier, the proposal to let the prince accompany him to the main courtyard for resettlement was not ignored, and this time the son said that he would enter the banquet, and he was ridiculed lukewarmly, and the flattery on Shi De's face was a little unbearable, and there was a little far-fetched in the politeness: "Xia Guan also took into account that the prince traveled day and night, came from afar, and the accommodation and food on the road were inevitably simple, so he arranged it in advance." ”

"Shi Zhizhou is too worried." Yu Feng smiled lightly, took a sip of tea, and gently dropped the lamp: "There is no need for a banquet, I came this time to relieve the disaster and find out the cause of the floods in the two counties. ”

The officials here looked at each other, and their hearts were all apprehensive, just now seeing the prince of the world being modest, and still feeling lucky, but not wanting to do it but just superficial behavior, listening to this words, this time the two counties of the flood, whether they can survive safely is difficult to decide, but not that the prince and Jin Xiang have been in frequent contact recently, why is it so iron-faced and selfless?

Shi De's heart was cold: It's just pretending, first give a dismount, so that he can hand over in front of the saint, he doesn't believe it, a prince and nobleman who has only been in the office for two years will really offend the noble family for the sake of the common people in a few counties, and besides, even if the prince has this heart, he may not have this ability.

His face was also solemn, and he got up and said: "Xia Guan originally didn't hear about the disaster in the two counties, but he still got the report from the imperial court, and only then did he know that there was such a disaster, Xia Guan was deeply shocked, and after discussing with your subordinate officials, he immediately began to arrange for the repair of the river embankment in the two counties and the resettlement of the victims. ”

"In this way, Shi Zhizhou has not been able to get the disaster in the county." Yu Feng frowned, glanced at everyone in the hall, and his eyes stayed on Huo Qi, who was standing on one side and wearing a seahorse green robe, and turned away.

For this person, Tian Chawei has some attention, although he is just a servant from the ninth grade, but his family assets are very strong in Bingzhou, I heard that the daughter of his Huo family, in Bingzhou life is very rude, actually openly raise male excellence, the husband who was born as a craftsman bullied his head to the ear, the in-laws of the family, still have to wait for the daughter-in-law three meals, to the sister-in-law, is often beaten and scolded, the reputation of the is very terrifying.

And this Huo Qi still has a brother, called Huo Sheng, if Yu Feng's memory is not bad, the pharmaceutical merchants who made a profit because of Artemisia annua back then would be headed by Huo Sheng.

I also heard Shi De's voice: "Shizi Mingjian, the lower officials were indeed concealed in the dark, Pinan and Tang counties, there is still a day's drive from the state city, the county order intends to conceal the report, and the lower officials are difficult to know for a while, but since the lower officials have learned that the two county magistrates have been detained and imprisoned, and the case has been tried publicly. ”

How dare they explain the truth and point the finger at the higher-level governors and the two "backers" in the DPRK and China?

Yu Feng lowered his eyes: "In just a few days, Shi Zhizhou can find out the truth, and he is really resolute, I don't know if the two county orders have confessed?" ”

These words almost made Shi De laugh out loud, and secretly ridiculed that he was really a young brother who was not as good as the crown, and he could ask such a naïve word, and shook the corners of his lips a few times before he maintained his righteousness and solemnity: "Concealing the disaster and not reporting it, if you lose your official position, you will be punished and punished severely, and the county orders of the two counties will naturally not be recognized to death, but all the officials under them can testify, and no one has been ordered to report to the state capital. ”

Yu Feng asked again, "I came here after hearing the news", Qu Yan, the superintendent of the imperial history who came here from Shuozhou, the capital city to participate in the public trial: "What does Qu Yushi think?" ”

This Metropolitan Procuratorate was originally "in charge" of the Qin Prime Minister, and the imperial history was mostly from a family, although it often "rubbed" with the state capital, but Yu Feng had already guessed that this time, the imperial history should be "tacit", sure enough, Qu Yan's words were ambiguous: "Although the county decree of the two counties is said to be wronged, saying that the disaster has already been reported according to the law, but judging from the words of the witness, they are quite suspicious, but it is not impossible to have another possibility, that is, the county officials and subordinates have made false testimony......"

Before he finished speaking, Shi De already sneered: "Qu Yushi, you said that the two counties and counties are the chief and the main man is a confession?" Is there any conclusive evidence? ”

Qu Yan frowned and shook his head: "It's just a guess, what the truth is, it depends on the judgment of the prince." ”

This Tai Chi is played smartly, Yu Feng smiled at the corners of his lips, secretly thinking that at least for now, Jin and Qin have not really joined forces, it should be as he guessed, Jin Xiang is the leader, Qin Xiang only does not notice, compared to Jin Xiang, Qin Xiang can protect himself better, and does not say to death, even if it is missing, the way out has been prepared.

And the current situation must be based on one side, and it cannot be connected to Qin Xiang to snar, forcing Qin Xiang and Jin Xiang to work together, unite the forces of the nobles and the family, and deal with themselves together.

Yu Feng ignored Qu Yan's blame, and no longer bothered with the problem of concealing the disaster report, and changed his words: "Has Shi Zhizhou ever strictly inspected the embankment and water conservancy of the prefecture's subordinate counties?" ”

Shi De's heart sank, is this to investigate him for lax supervision? Fortunately, he had already prepared, and immediately replied: "In previous years, the household department allocated the silver for the construction of embankments, and the lower officials had distributed the water conservancy to the coastal counties, and the matter of water conservancy was supervised by his subordinates. ”

Yu Feng looked at the restless Tongzhi on the side: "What is the embankment of Pinan and Tangxian?" ”

"The Prince...... It was only in mid-July that Xiaguan was transferred from Shuozhou to the post of Tongzhi, and he did not have time to investigate them one by one. "That fellow knowers said.

Yu Feng raised his eyebrows.

"This ...... The prince didn't know that Wang Yu, who was originally in charge of water conservancy in Pinan and other counties, resigned due to illness, and the lower officials had already reported, and Wang Yu died of illness three days ago.......

Sick and sick in time, and died in time.

Yu Feng shook his fingers slightly, it seems that when the two counties were not flooded, because of the heavy rain, someone planned ahead, first let the Tongzhi who was responsible for supervising the water conservancy resign due to illness, and the prevention was to be held accountable in the future, and when he learned that the disaster could not be concealed, he simply made people seriously ill and died...... What is the stake that makes people so well-planned and ruthless?

In this way, even if the county order does not repair the embankment, even the flood, Shi De will not be involved, and those who are extremely negligent in their duties have "died of illness", and there is no proof of death, and the black pot is called a porcelain.

"Shizi, in recent years, the country and the people have been safe, the wind and rain have been smooth, and the Dinghe River basin has never been threatened by floods...... A county Cheng testified that the embankment of the two counties has not been repaired for many years, who would have thought that it would be rainy this year, and Pinan and Tangxian are dangerous beaches, so this is ......" Shi De hurriedly said: "The lower official is indeed guilty of negligence, and after learning of the danger, he ordered the new Zhou Tongzhi to survey the water defense along the river, but the rest of the counties are safe." ”

Yu Feng frowned, are the counties safe? If the disaster in the two counties is concealed this time, and the saint is concealed, it will not be long before the five county orders "dereliction of duty".

"If the prince has any doubts, he can check the testimony of the people of the two counties." Shi De also noticed that Yu Feng's expression was not good, and reminded him dutifully.

"Investigation, of course, is to be investigated, but the priority at the moment is to give priority to the people in the two affected places." After speaking, Yu Feng had already gotten up: "Shi Zhizhou, I will go to the disaster area, Zhizhou has government affairs, so he will guard the annex city without distraction." ”

"But the prince, the floods in Pinan and Tang County have not receded...... Shi De was shocked, he originally thought that he had arranged the victims in advance, and the county order was publicly tried, everything was proper, and the prince only had to supervise and inspect the case in the state, and should not go to the disaster site to risk himself.

"It's okay, the Holy Lord has appointed the Yulin guards, and he should be able to keep me safe." Yu Feng was meaningful, and glanced at everyone present again: "Shi Zhizhou stays, but please ...... Zhou Tongzhi and I are going. ”

"Then, the prince can be placed in our mansion first?" Shi De still remembered it, and thought of Jin Xiang's secret letter to instruct - the son of the world has not yet married, and your third mother is also waiting to be married, with her quality of showing off her wisdom, if she can please the son of the world and accept her as a concubine, why worry that this matter cannot be revealed safely, and it will be beneficial to act in the future.

Shi De thinks that what Jin Xiang said is not bad, his family Sanniang is not only talented and beautiful, but also has the ambition of Lingyun, although he is to marry the boudoir, but he has the name of judging the case and inspecting it, in a place where it is absolutely beautiful, although he does not dare to think about the position of the princess, it is more than enough to be a concubine, Shi De is very confident, as long as he gives his daughter the opportunity to "get acquainted" with the son, he will definitely be able to get the heart of the son unforgettable.

Most of the powerful sons of this and Shuo are admired and admired by his family's Lanxin, and even take pride in "playing" with Shi's Lanxin.

The reason why he didn't give his daughter a light promise, waiting for the opportunity to climb the prince, originally waited for the next year, so he wanted to send Lan Xin to Kyoto to marry the prince and the royal family, even if it was difficult to be the prince or the princess and concubine, even if he was a concubine, it was better than giving it to ordinary nobles, but he didn't want to wait until then, so he got the opportunity in front of him.

The son of the world has the trust of the saint, and his identity is so noble, his daughter has to marry the Chu Palace, and she will at least be a second-grade concubine in the future.

If Lan has won the heart of the world, she will not worry about the danger of Pinan at the moment.

Shi Dena was very urgent, but unfortunately Yu Feng didn't appreciate it, and went straight out, leaving only one sentence: "Don't work Shi Zhizhou's heart, I will temporarily live in the princess's mansion." ”

Shi De was stunned for a moment-

Didn't Jin Xiang claim that because of the marriage between the Weiguo Mansion and Qin Xiang, he had attracted the Holy Lord's affection, and the prince therefore "showed goodwill" to Jin Xiang, and it seemed that he also had the intention of alienating the Guogong Mansion?

This...... If this is the case, why did the prince live in the princess's mansion?

Shi De felt bad, and when the prince went to Pinan on the front foot, he hurriedly invited many nobles and nobles to discuss the uncertain crisis in front of him.
