On the official road outside the gate of Kaifeng Mansion, the slapping continued one after another.

The slap was on the face of the steward of the Zhou Palace, but it also hit the head of the ministry.

The head of the ministry looked uncertain, and looked at the Kaifeng Mansion who was sitting on the side and watching the wall.

"That's enough!"

The head of the ministry snorted coldly, and his eyes swept gloomily towards the steward of the Zhou Palace, who was kneeling on the ground and kept sobbing his face.

He is an official of the imperial court, an accompanying official of the Taisun West Tour, and he hid his identity when he arrived in Kaifeng Mansion, and the first thing he did was to force the steward of Zhou Wangfu to go out of the city to give porridge to slap his face.

It doesn't matter what happened today.

As long as it is spread, it is something that he forced the steward of the Zhou Wangfu to do.

How will it be explained then?

A good and dignified entourage official can force the steward of the palace to slap his face?

It is enough to convict him of stirring up the clan.

However, even if the head of the ministry had already expressed his dissatisfaction, the steward of the Zhou Wangfu, who was kneeling on the ground, seemed to be dizzy, and he didn't hear a word, and he still slapped his face.

The head of the ministry was helpless, so he had to sigh lightly and look at the Kaifeng Mansion Judge Fang Guxin on the side: "Fang Tong, there is a mistake in the matter here, please also judge it as higher than the light."

Fang Guxin's eyes flickered at this time, and he looked at Gao Guang with a smile: "The high master is the upper errand, and the upper duty is invited, and the Kaifeng Mansion should make its own efforts."

After saying that, Fang Guxin turned to look at the steward of the Zhou Palace, who was kneeling on the ground.

Fang Guxin coughed lightly, and moved his steps to the palace steward: "Stop, Director Gao represents His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson, and it is the imperial court. The high director is also an official of the ministry, and he understands the rewards and punishments for merit and demerit, since you give porridge to the palace, and go quickly, don't miss the people's food. But you have to be more careful, don't do things that bully people and ruin the reputation of the palace."

When the palace steward heard Fang Guxin's voice, he finally stopped his hands, and his faces on both sides were already red.

The steward nodded heavily: "Thank you for the judgment, thank you for your forgiveness."

In the end, he bowed his hand to Gao Guang, and the soup kitchen of the Zhou Wangfu in Kaifeng, the feudal state, was in charge, and then he left cautiously with the soup kitchen team of the palace.

On the official road outside the city of Kaifeng Mansion, a puff of smoke and dust hung up. Roll up a few leaves and float in mid-air.

Kaifeng Mansion sentenced Fang to fix his salary, and watched coldly as the soup kitchen steward of Zhou Wangfu left with people, and then turned around and quietly looked Gao Guang up and down.

Then he smiled and said, "Let Master Gao disturb the matter."

Gao Guang was already depressed in his heart at this time, and when he heard Fang Guxin's words, he could only snort twice and smile back.

Fang Guxin turned sideways to make way out: "Master Gao, you are on a mission, there are many people outside the city, since the officials have come to Kaifeng Mansion, they are naturally here with the intention of His Highness and the imperial court, and please send you to the city, and the government will arrange a banquet to catch the wind."

From being exposed to his identity, to the steward of the Zhou Palace's porridge slapping himself in the face on the official road.

Gao Guang knew that his group had been pinched by Kaifeng Mansion, and it was difficult to choose at the moment, so he could only nod silently unwillingly, and let Fang Guxin lead the way with people in front.

….

Above the light is always a calm face.

Not far in front of him, the Kaifeng Mansion who led the way was sentenced to a fixed salary, and there were just a few words before and after, but there were hints everywhere.

Especially in the end, the soup kitchen steward named Warning Zhou Wangfu is actually hinting at himself.

His own line of people represents the court and His Royal Highness, but he is not His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun or the imperial court, and he only relies on the power of the imperial court and His Royal Highness to have a bad name.

said that it was a warning to the soup kitchen steward of the Zhou Palace, not to do things that were bullying.

In fact, he is telling these people who are higher than him, don't bully people in Kaifeng Mansion and do outrageous things just because you have the court and His Royal Highness.

open

There is a big problem with the closure of the house!

It even involved the Zhou Palace.

Otherwise, the soup kitchen manager of Zhou Wangfu would not have appeared in front of him so skillfully after Fang Guxin, and he would not have cooperated with Fang Guxin so appropriately and acted in front of him.

Higher than the light for a time full of haze.

I just feel that the pressure is multiplied in vain.

When Gao Guang finally walked under the gate of Kaifeng Mansion, he suddenly stopped.

After taking a deep breath, Gao Guang turned around under Fang Guxin's puzzled gaze.

Gao Guang looked at the brocade guards in the team, and said directly in a deep voice: "Go to a few people to see for Your Highness how the disaster situation is in Kaifeng Mansion, how the victims live now, and how the work for relief set by the imperial court is done."

Hearing this, looking at Fang Guxin, who was higher than his bare back, his face couldn't help but change slightly.

He was about to speak, but he didn't want to be above the light, and he had already added loudly again.

"Check it out! For His Royal Highness, I saw it clearly and carefully. Be sure to be detailed, to be reliable."

"We are the eyes of His Highness, and we are the outpost of Kaifeng Mansion this time, so we must take care of His Highness and know what the disaster situation in Kaifeng Mansion is now."

Originally, they thought that they could only enter the city and then find another opportunity to go out of the city to investigate the situation, but when they heard Gao Guang's words, their eyes suddenly lit up.

Everyone casually glanced at the Kaifeng Mansion with a smile on their faces, and then drove towards the light.

"Command!"

The Jinyi guards were concise and to the point, and after receiving the order, they divided half of the men and scattered to leave in different directions outside Kaifeng Mansion.

The smile on Fang Guxin's face hid the solemnity in his heart, and he said with a smile: "Director Gao is really resolute in doing things. The lower officials are also preparing to let everyone in Jinyi Guard rest for a while today, and then send someone to accompany you to do things tomorrow."

Gao Guang's face was ordinary, and he bowed his hand to the south in front of Fang Guxin: "We are waiting for the king's fortune, we should share our worries for the king, and abide by the duties of our subordinates."

Fang Guxin can only be accompanied by higher than the light, and his hand is facing south.

Less.

Everyone has arrived at the Kaifeng Mansion.

Because of the special political status of Kaifeng Mansion, although the construction layout of the mansion is in accordance with the custom of the imperial court, it occupies an exceptionally large area.

Fang Guxin led Gao Guang and the others to a mansion behind the mansion, and said, "Master Gao, you are on a mission, the lower officials will go to ask someone to prepare a banquet first, and you can rest and wash here." Bring the banquet and prepare it, presumably the Fuzun and the others will be able to return to the government."

….

Gao Guang led a group of accompanying colleagues and bowed his hand to Fang Guxin: "There is a labor party to worry about the judgment, when the Fuzun returns to the government, he must inform me in advance, and we can go to meet the Fuzun."

With a smile on his face, Fang Guxin hid all the reasons for entering the city one by one, and also returned the salute with his hand: "It must be."

Gao Guang put his hands in his sleeves, stood on the steps of the house, and looked calmly at Fang Guxin walking out of the courtyard with the people of Kaifeng Mansion, and only snorted coldly after half a ring.

He turned his head to take the entire mansion into view, and then sneered again.

"It's really the thoroughfare of the eight provinces! It is next to the embankment of the Yellow River, the Central Plains, which can also create the smoke and rain style of the south of the Yangtze River."

Gao Guang looked at the unobstructed Jiangnan mansion construction technique in the courtyard here, but there was a mysterious color on his face.

The official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate looked around, stepped forward and whispered, "This time I came to Kaifeng Mansion, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with."

Gao Guang nodded, turned his head to look at the brocade guard over there, and arched his hand: "I'm tired of you."

The leader of the Jinyi Guard was a general flag officer, who smiled when he heard Gao Guang's words: "Don't worry, the brothers have all received orders from His Highness, and this trip will definitely not let the high chief have anything to do."

After finishing speaking, the chief flag officer's face sank: "It's all checked carefully."

With the general flag officer one

Under the order, the brocade guards who stayed and followed into the city immediately moved, and soon after, they had already checked this Jiangnan-style mansion inside and out.

Subsequently, there were Jinyi guards who occupied several important positions in the courtyard to ensure that the houses in the courtyard would not be easily approached by idle people.

After that, Gao Gao Guang took his entourage into the house.

As soon as everyone entered the room, there was a cold snort for a while.

"If Kaifeng Mansion is clean, the official will put down his own black yarn hat now!"

An official entered the house, closed the door and snorted coldly and made a bet.

Gao Guang's face was gloomy, and An Bu sat on a red sandalwood chair and looked at everyone.

The official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate said in a low voice, "What happened outside the city gate today must not help but make people feel that it was done on purpose. I'm afraid that these things have already been prepared in advance by the Kaifeng Mansion, just waiting for us or His Highness to come in person."

Several people were talking angrily again, and finally everyone's eyes were on Gao Guang.

Gao Guang raised his eyes and looked at everyone: "Actually, isn't this also what we expected? In other words, His Highness has long known that Kaifeng Mansion will not be clean, which is why we will have this outpost."

Hearing Gao Guang's words, the official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate immediately moved his position, came to his side, and said in a low voice, "His Royal Highness entered Lanyang County and beheaded Cao Zhisheng. Senior brother, you said, this time His Highness asked us to come to Kaifeng Mansion first, did you already guess our identity and whereabouts and couldn't hide it?"

Someone on the side gasped and sighed, "If you say that, it makes sense. His Royal Highness asked us to come over early, perhaps just to startle the snake. Only by startling the snake can His Highness be able to hit the seven inches at that time."

Gao Guang nodded: "It is precisely because of this thought that this official was outside the city gate before, allowing the people of the Jinyi Guard to disperse. In order to startle the people of Kaifeng Mansion."

….

The official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate looked a little solemn, and he said in a low voice, "It's just that right now, the Zhou Wangfu is ...... Besides, the people who see Kaifeng Mansion today are not simple people. Now we are in Ming, and we don't know what is going on under the water in Kaifeng Mansion."

Gao Guang's eyes flickered a few times, and his face became more and more unsightly: "Kaifeng Mansion is located in the Central Plains, which is the land of China, and it involves a lot. On this trip, we are waiting to fight the outpost, and now that we have made a move, it depends on how Kaifeng Mansion picks it up."

Everyone looked left and right, thought about it, and felt that there was only so much that could be done now, and Qi Qi sighed helplessly.

Not to mention Gao Guang and others who have already entered the Kaifeng Mansion.

However, it is said that after Gao Guang and others were settled, the Kaifeng Mansion General Judgment Party fixed the salary, and after leaving the mansion specially designed to welcome the Jiangnan officials, he did not go to the other place, but led people to follow the road through the alleys in the back house of the mansion.

Not long after, Fang Guxin arrived in the backyard of the Kaifeng Mansion, the only place with a high-rise building.

Fang Guxin stopped in front of the far door and looked back at the people accompanying him.

He whispered, "Wait here, don't disturb anyone."

After telling him, Fang Guxin took a deep breath, tidied up the robe on his body, and then calmly stepped into the courtyard.

When I entered the courtyard, it was a landscaping style in the Song Dynasty.

Several men in black clothes were scattered in various shaded and hidden places in the courtyard.

Every time he met the gaze of these people, Fang Guxin had to lower his head deeper.

When he walked to the bottom of the tall building and was blocked by two men in black clothes, Fang Guxin even bent down.

Fang Guxin didn't raise his head, but said in a deep voice: "The minister Kaifeng Mansion has sentenced Fang Guxin to see the prince."

The people who blocked the high-rise building did not let Fang Gu pay in because of this.

waited until there was a sound of footsteps in the tall building, and a eunuch in a purple shirt walked to the door with his hands bowed and looked at Fang Guxin outside the door: "Fang Tongju come in, Your Highness is playing chess with the Mansion Zun."

Fang Guxin nodded

, didn't dare to say more, just lowered his head and bent down into the building, and followed the eunuch to the top floor of the tall building.

Standing on the top floor, through the wide open windows around you, you can see the entire Kaifeng Mansion at a glance, and you can see the scenery of the city.

It's just that Fang Guxin was not interested, and he didn't dare to look at the scenery outside the window, but lowered his head and quietly looked at the two people sitting at the front of the chessboard in the building, playing chess.

One of them was wearing a scarlet robe of Yunyan Buzi, and it was Wenhu, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture.

On the opposite side of Shangguan Wenhu, sitting in the north and facing south is a man dressed in a crimson five-clawed dragon pattern five-chapter regular uniform, and a man in his thirties, who is the first king of Wu, changed the title in the eleventh year of Hongwu, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the fifth son of Zhu Yuanzhang of the feudal kingdom of Kaifeng, the king of Zhou.

Zhu Hu and Shangguan Wenhu heard Fang Guxin's footsteps, but they didn't look up, they still focused on the chess game in front of them, which had reached a critical juncture, and the black and white dragons were fighting and fighting.

Shangguan Wenhu's hand fell, and he tilted his head slightly: "I am tired of cooking tea, so as to quench my thirst with His Highness."

Fang Guxin immediately bowed down and nodded, and responded crisply, and stirred up from the tea table on the side.

….

Zhu Hu, the king of Zhou, who had a straight face, a flat eyebrow, and a beard on his cheeks, smiled helplessly: "This king is still anxious, and he lost another game today."

Shangguan Wenhu immediately shook his robe and got up: "It is His Highness who has made his son and his ministers, if you talk about chess, who can compare to Your Highness in Kaifeng Mansion, that is, if you look at this dynasty, Your Highness's chess skills can also be commensurate with national players."

Zhu Lu smiled, did not dwell on the question of whether he was a national player or not, but sighed faintly: "This king has been in Kaifeng for fourteen years since the fourteenth year of Hongwu."

Shangguan Wenhu glanced at Fang Guxin.

The general judge of Kaifeng Mansion immediately sent the freshly brewed tea to King Zhou, and said softly with a flattering smile on his face: "Your Highness, please use tea."

Shangguan Wenhu only spoke at this time: "Your Highness has indeed been in Kaifeng for fourteen years."

Zhu Hu shook his head: "Fourteen years, this king can only use this chess game to kill time."

After that, Zhu Hu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and the tea soup turned around his teeth three times.

After the end, Zhu Hu looked at Fang Guxin who was waiting on the side, and couldn't help nodding in approval: "Fang Tong's judgment of the tea cooking skills here is becoming more and more exquisite."

Fang Guxin was about to kneel, bowed down and said, "Fortunately, thanks to His Highness's several orders, His Majesty has only slightly entered this door."

Zhu Yu smiled and drank the remaining soup in the teacup.

He got up slowly, walked to the windowsill next to the tall building, clapped his hands on the railing, and looked at the entire Kaifeng Mansion outside the mansion, and then his eyes retracted little by little, and fell in the Jiangnan-style mansion in the mansion.

"The officials of the imperial court's western tour have all settled down?"

Fang Guxin nodded, feeling a little uneasy in his heart: "If you go back to Your Highness, you have already settled down. It's just ......."

Shangguan Wenhu coughed lightly on the side, pretending to be displeased: "In front of His Highness, no matter what, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Zhu Hu also said, "But what happened?"

Fang Guxin nodded and hummed: "At the beginning, the minister took people to greet each other, which was expected. also borrowed something to hint at the other party. It's just that the minister never thought that the head of the Ministry of Officials and the Qing Officials Division was higher than the light, and before entering the city, he called the people of the Jinyi Guard to investigate the situation outside the city."

Shangguan Wenhu couldn't help frowning when he heard that the people of Jinyi Wei were investigating the situation outside the city, and immediately stepped forward cautiously and walked behind Zhu Hu, and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, is this matter going to be ......?"

Zhu Hu shook his head with his back and said, "What do you want? Want to organize Jinyiwei to investigate the news? Or do you want to organize the imperial court to help with this disaster?"

Shangguan Wenhu closed his mouth, but there was a little more worry in his eyes.

Fang Guxin stood at the back, where he was only qualified to answer questions, and did not have the slightest position to take the initiative to speak.

Zhu Hu didn't know when he turned around and looked at Shangguan Wenhu: "Brother Shangguan, it's time for you to meet those people."

Shangguan Wenhu nodded, but reacted again: "Then Your Highness, you ......."

Zhu Hu had already walked to the stairs with his back at this time, and when he heard Shangguan Wenhu's doubts, he turned his head to look at the other party: "The imperial grandson is touring the west on behalf of the imperial court and His Majesty this time, and is also carrying out the relief of the disaster in the six mansions, holding the order of the Son of Heaven. As a member of the clan, this king is in Kaifeng, and it is reasonable for him to go and meet this king's eldest nephew."

Shangguan Wenhu became more and more puzzled.

"Your Highness is going to see the imperial grandson?"

Shangguan Wenhu thought of the news that came one after another in the past two days, since the emperor's grandson entered Xuzhou Mansion.

Now the Xuzhou Mansion has set up a bureau to exterminate thousands of thieves, and after entering Lanyang County, he beheaded Cao Zhisheng, the commander of Lanyang County. I heard that the stubborn donkey with an iron neck in Chenliu County personally wore a flail to go to the crime, but he was personally unloaded from the flail by the emperor's grandson and dragged into the Lanyang County Ya.

One thing after another is revealing that this time the imperial grandson is going to vigorously rectify the six disaster-stricken mansions and help the people.

Zhu Hu had already walked down the stairs step by step, always with a smile on his face.

"Wait and rest assured."
