"No, the king has recognized the wrong person."

Gongzixi twisted his head to the side and said with a crying voice: "The villain is just a concubine in Wudu......

Is this angry with the widow?

Qingji chuckled, then helped Gongzi Xi up from the ground, and said, "Xi'er, you are still blaming your father...... Did you be cruelly banished back then?"

"Don't dare!"

Finally, Gongzixi admitted his identity, lowered his head and said, "Father, the child knows that he shouldn't beat his brother and commit the crime of bullying the king!"

"The child has learned his mistake, but he does not dare to beg his father for forgiveness."

"Over the years, the child has become accustomed to the life of a common man, please take care of his father and mother."

"Forgive the child for being unfilial, failing to fulfill his filial piety in front of you, I just ask my father to open up the net, so that the child can go into battle to kill the enemy and make contributions to the country, so that he can be crowned a wife and son, enter the house, and occasionally see his father, the king and the mother and the princess."

"This ...... It's the biggest dream of a child!"

「……」

Hearing this, Qingji was also embarrassed in his heart.

For his own flesh and blood, how can Qingji kill the killer?

At that time, Gongzixi was stubborn and difficult to teach, and Qingji was afraid that Gongzixi would cause greater trouble if he continued like this, so he exiled Gongzixi......

At this time, seeing Gongzi Xi, who has reformed himself, how can Qingji not have relatives?

Qingji patted Gongzi Xi's shoulder and said meaningfully, "Xi'er, you have really grown up."

"Would you like to go back to Jinling with the widow?"

"Father, the child is really...... Is that okay?"

Looking at Qingji's expectant gaze, Gongzixi put his mind at ease, couldn't help but burst into tears, and hugged Qingji, very excited.

Six years!

Exactly six years!

Gongzixi has worked as a woodcutter, a fisherman, and a farmer, and has had a very hard life.

Selling and drinking on the street, killing fish to make money, how uncomfortable is this for a teenager and a son who was originally well-dressed and well-fed?

Fortunately, Gongzixi survived!

See the light at the end of the tunnel!

Gongzi Xi, who has been exiled for six years, has been reborn, and his heart has been sharpened to a particularly deep level.

In fact, Qingji doesn't care too much anymore, and Gongzi's scheming city is too deep.

As long as Gongzi Xi can focus on the people of the country and the community, he will be happy to see it.

……

Qingji inspected Jiujiang County, Yuzhang County, and Lujiang County downstream, and after condolences to the soldiers, officials and victims in various places, he returned to the capital Jinling.

This time, the disaster has been brought under control.

More than 400,000 Li Shu were affected by the disaster, but fortunately, they were dredged in time and the government was in place to fight the flood and provide disaster relief, so there were not too many Li Shu who died.

That's about a thousand!

That being said, a large number of houses and farmland were submerged, and the property damage caused was immeasurable.

After the disaster was alleviated, Qingji, who returned to Jinling, immediately held a court meeting to discuss post-disaster reconstruction and how to deal with the things that had been ordered.

The people who participated in this court meeting were basically ministers and doctors with official ranks of more than 600 stones.

The extra special seats are the sons of Qingji.

The eldest son Wu Hong, the second son Wu Xi, the eldest son Wu Heng, and the son Wu Fan, all of whom were over the age of 16 and were given the opportunity to participate in state affairs by Qingji.

Qingji's four sons all have quite a background.

Gongzi Hong was born like a dream.

Gongzi Heng, born to Queen Ji Ko.

Gongzi Xi, born to Zhu Ji.

Gongzi Fan, born to Meng Huan.

The main force behind Wu Heng is the Yue faction.

The main force behind Wu Fan is the Chu faction.

The main force behind Wu Hong is the local faction of Wu State.

Wu Xi is a little lonely, but he is also favored by Qingji......

As the princes grow up, the battle for the throne of Wu seems to have begun.

Qingji doesn't know if it's good or bad.

"Take, the county guard of Lujiang County once ordered the temple-"

With the announcement of the CRRC Mansion Lingjiao, who was standing on the side of the Majesty's platform, Zeng Dian, who had been tied up, was taken to the Zide Hall by two guards and waited for the judgment of Qingji

As a county guard, the official rank of Zeng Point is 2,000 stones, and he is in a high position.

To deal with such a point, the Tingwei Mansion cannot cut it by itself.

Even Qingji himself is not convenient for the cadres to be arbitrary.

"Minister, the county guard of Lujiang County has a point, see the king! I am the king of ten thousand years! Great Wu Wannian!"

He once clicked "plop" and knelt under the majesty's platform.

Qingji's face was joyless and sad, and he asked slowly, "Zeng Dian, are you guilty?"

"The minister is guilty!"

Zeng nodded and said, "My lord, because of the minister's delay in time, in this catastrophic flood, thousands of people died, and more than 80,000 households were affected by the flood in Wu County, Jiujiang County, and Yuzhang County, and more than 400,000 people were deeply affected!"

"The minister knows that he will not escape the blame! Let the king condemn and make his ministers judge themselves!"

Zeng Dian really knew that his guilt was inevitable, and in order to avoid harming his wife and children, he could only confess his guilt and surrender to the law!

This made Qingji also embarrassed.

Who is Zeng Dian?

Zeng Dian, the word 皙, also known as Zeng Hui, surnamed Ji, a native of Wucheng in the south of Lu State, the father of Zeng Shen, a disciple of Confucius, one of the seventy-two sages of Confucius, was the first batch of disciples accepted by Confucius in his thirties.

It can be said that Zeng Dian was the first disciple to enter Wu with Kong Qiu that year, and he was also entrusted with important tasks by Qingji to serve as a county guard.

Such a point is promising.

As a disciple of Confucius, Zeng Dian was a nobleman with a high background.

This can be seen from the surname.

The ancestor of Zeng is Dayu.

In the past, King Shaokang of Xia named his second son Qu Lie as the viscount of Yong, and established the state of Yan in Yong, and the surname Zeng originated from there.

The state of Yan went through Xia, Shang and Zhou, until the Spring and Autumn Period, that is, in 567 BC, it was destroyed by the state of Ju.

Shiziwu went out of Benlu to settle in Nanwu City.

His descendants use "鄫" as the clan, except for the side of the Yi (阝), which means leaving the old city and not forgetting the ancestors, called "Zeng"!

Three passes to the Zeng point.

Zeng Dian likes to play the piano and sing, learn Confucianism, hate the world's etiquette and teaching, and is determined to change the status quo.

He is an enterprising and wild man!

Zeng Dian, who served as the county warden of Lujiang County, was also honest and honest in office, enforced the law impartially, and was kind to others, so he won the hearts of the people.

Zeng pointed to the political achievements made in Lujiang County, Qingji was seen in his eyes and remembered in his heart.

Qingji has already planned to promote Zeng Dian to one of the Nine Qings.

How could we have thought that such a mistake had been made on the key issue of flood fighting and emergency rescue?

Pedantic!

I don't know how to work!

Fortunately, after receiving Qingji's edict, Zeng Dian dug up the river of Lujiang County non-stop and dredged the flood in time, which can be regarded as a timely stop loss for Wu Guo.

If not, if Zeng Dian dared to disobey the king's order this time, he would have ten heads, which would not be enough to cut off!

"Second and third sons, in your opinion, what should the widow do with Zeng Dian?"
