Chapter 188: Kindness and Weakness
Taishou was still smiling, nodded and said, "I don't want to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and I came to disturb so early, of course, I want to confirm our thoughts." ”
Taishou's confession surprised Lu Gong a little.
"Then now, it can be regarded as what Lord Taishou wants!" Lu Gongdao.
Tai Shou laughed: "Your Excellency Lu Gong doesn't need to be so nervous. We're not here to embarrass you. Instead, I brought a few words for the nobles in the palace. ”
Lu Gong's heart moved.
The phoenix robe instantly came to mind. According to Zhang Yizhi, she is a woman with good means.
"If you have something to say, please speak directly."
"Then you're welcome." Tai Shou paused and continued: "The Zhu family has always attached importance to talents. Although there was some misunderstanding with His Excellency Lu Gong before, it did not affect anything. ”
"The nobles in the palace asked the lower officials to come, just to give each other a chance to release their suspicions. If His Excellency Lu Gong can let go of the past, the Zhu family is willing to fully support His Excellency Lu Gong. ”
"Support me?" Lu Gong felt a little ironic.
Taishou didn't care, nodded and smiled: "That's right." Uncle Guo said. The grievances in Kyoto can be written off, and if His Excellency Lu Gong is willing to continue to stay in Tianshui, whether it is the Si Tianjian or the former secretary of the palace, he will not come to disturb you again. ”
"Moreover, in order to show the sincerity of Uncle Guo, the tax burden of the entire Tianshui Yin and Yang Division in the next ten years can be borne by the old Zhu family."
When Ma Zhongqiu and Qin Qiubo heard this, their faces changed.
This is a great benefit for Tianshui. Obviously, this is a gesture of goodwill to Lu Gong, and it is also a pinch of Lu Gong.
I have to say that the old Zhu family has been able to get to where it is today, and it does have the courage that ordinary people do not have.
When Lu Gong heard this, he couldn't help laughing. "Uncle Guo is really generous!"
His Excellency Lu Gong smiled. It's just a greeting gift. Lord Taishou glanced at Ma Zhongqiu again and said, "As long as His Excellency Lu Gong is willing to serve the old Zhu family, then the position of the city emperor of Qinzhou Mansion, and Ma Chenghuang can also take advantage of the situation." ”
Ma Zhongqiu and Qin Qiubo's breathing both subconsciously became short.
Taishou watched them quietly, waiting for a reply.
"In other words, as long as I agree, the entire Yin Division of Qinzhou can be decided by me?" Lu Gong asked.
Taishou nodded vigorously, his eyes full of anticipation.
It's just that without waiting for Lu Gong's reply, Ma Zhongqiu suddenly spoke: "Brother Lu, think twice!" ”
Taishou raised his eyebrows and looked at Ma Zhongqiu with some puzzlement. "What? The city emperor has no interest in the position of city emperor in Qinzhou Mansion? ”
"The Tai Shou Dao man laughed. Ma Zhongqiu manages the Yin Division of Tianshui County for the time being, and for the time being, he feels that he has more than enough heart and not enough strength, not to mention that it is the entire Qinzhou Mansion. How much ability to do big things, Ma himself is still a little self-aware. Ma Zhongqiu said seriously.
Next to him, the man in black interjected: "City Emperor, Qinzhou Mansion may be easier!" As long as you take refuge in the old Zhu family, at least you don't have to worry so much about this tax matter. ”
"Thank you, Judge, for your kindness. Tianshui County is very good! Ma Zhongqiu arched his hand.
Taishou was still staring at Lu Gong.
Lu Gong didn't think about it, and said directly: "Maybe I have to let Lord Taishou run for nothing." ”
Taishou's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't you know what this represents?" ”
Taishou looked around at the City Emperor Temple and sneered: "The Yin Division of Tianshui County, which has finally stabilized, may soon become a bubble. ”
"Taishou-sama, is this threatening me?" Lu Gong asked rhetorically.
Taishou still sneered: "Of course I don't dare, it's just that the lower officials want His Excellency Lu Gong to figure it out." If the nobles in the palace don't open their mouths, your identity as a wanted criminal can't be washed away. There will be no place for you in the entire Hua Dynasty, and besides, ......"
He looked at Ma Zhongqiu: "The City Emperor and the River God Master, this is a crime of fornication and wanted criminals, and I am afraid that Shui County will not be able to stay this day." ”
Ma Zhongqiu's face moved slightly, but Qin Qiubo's face had already darkened.
"Your Excellency Lu Gong, what do you think?" Taishou looks like he has a chance to win.
"What a big crime, Ma was really scared!" Ma Zhongqiu suddenly burst out laughing.
The light in his hand flashed, and the great seal representing the city emperor instantly flew to the eucalyptus board.
"Two adults, this is the seal of the Tianshui County City Emperor, as long as the two adults think it is appropriate, please take it away at any time."
Qin Qiubo's face was pale, but in this case, he didn't even have the qualifications to speak.
Taishou didn't seem to expect Ma Zhongqiu to be so direct, took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Okay, very good!" ”
"Your Excellency Lu Gong, you give me a letter of approval, and the next official will go back to pay the errand."
Lu Gong smiled and said, "Didn't the City Emperor already give the letter?" ”
Taishou's face was gloomy, and he shook his hand, turned around and left. The black-clothed judge glanced at Lu Gong fiercely, and said in a deep voice: "Don't be ashamed, you really think you are something." ”
He strode away from the City Emperor Temple.
As soon as the two left, Qin Qiubo suddenly said anxiously: "Why are you so impulsive, I'm afraid there is really no turning back now." ”
Ma Zhongqiu seemed to have let go of his burden, and breathed a long sigh of relief. "The gods of troubled times are not as good as dogs. In the past six months, we have worked hard to maintain the stability of Tianshui County, so what? After all, it's not that it can't live up to the above sentence? ”
"Tianshui is the holy heavenly water, but not our heavenly water. I'm really tired anyway. It's better to be like the Yang Jian brothers, enjoying the shade under the banyan tree every day and enjoying the incense. Ma Zhongqiu said with a smile.
Imagine the Chinese network
Qin Qiubo said bitterly: "Isn't the reason why Brother Yang Jian can live happily is because we are working hard to stop all the disasters? If everybody thinks so, then who's going to do that? ”
"I can't do that much. Really tired! Ma Zhongqiu waved his hand.
"It's not like you!" Lu Gong deliberately laughed.
Ma Zhongqiu sighed and didn't say anything more.
Lu Gong could clearly feel the bitterness in his heart. In order to maintain the stability of the Yin Division of Tianshui County, they have already exhausted all their strength.
But what is the use of all this?
In the end, it became a bargaining chip for others to threaten.
When kindness becomes a weakness, the taste all changes.
"I'm afraid Tianshui is about to be in chaos. Maybe the Si Tianjian and the temple front Si will join forces. Be ye prepared. Lu Gong said.
"Are we going to sit still?" Qin Qiubo said worriedly.
At this point, he knew there was nothing he could do.
"Or, let's let us know and see what people have to say. The worst plan is for us to run away with Brother Lu. Ma Zhongqiu said seriously.
"What's the notice?" Qin Qiubo thought of a certain possibility and exclaimed.
"Senior Qin asked knowingly." Ma Zhongqiu smiled very easily.
