King Zhao was stunned.

I had to coax.

In any case, as long as the emperor talks to you about the country, the dragon chair and the prince, the person who listens to this is equivalent to stepping into the ghost gate with half a foot.

His Majesty the Emperor is benevolent and modest, and recruits talents from all over the world...... But King Zhao grew up with the emperor since he was a child, and the scene of the emperor's brother quacking and killing in the chaotic battle for the heir is still vivid!

If anyone really thinks that this is a monarch who only knows benevolence, then death is not far away.

This is also the main reason why King Zhao has stayed away from the court over the years, he doesn't want to stay in the capital and be involved in turbulence, and then he will die miserably when he can't help himself.

"Brother Zhao Wang, you are a little insincere."

Xiao Pingsi shook his head and said: "Several of my princes, there are rumors among the people, how can you not know anything about it?" ”

Or are you testing me, are you paying attention to the court?

King Zhao hurriedly said: "Brother Huang, you also know that the younger brother is the most lazy and playful, and he has traveled all over the mountains and rivers over the years, and has visited all the places of interest in Daxia, so he can't observe the ......people's feelings at all."

I haven't even paid attention to the people, how can I pay attention to your prince?

"Well, you're too playful." Xiao Pingsi said with a smile.

Then he said: "The Great Xia Jiangshan belongs to my Xiao family, how can you, as a royal bloodline, care about it at all, it's really too capricious." ”

"Eh, my brother knows that he is wrong, and he will have less fun in the future......" King Zhao wiped his cold sweat and was scolded twice, it is better than being suspicious.

"In the future, I will go out less, help me share some burdens, now that the princes are not interested, I can only rely on you old brothers." Xiao Pingsi said helplessly.

The tone is very sincere.

King Zhao immediately excused himself: "The younger brother has not been easy to learn since he was a child, and there is no pattern in his eyes, so let Brother Ning work harder, and the younger brother still prefers lily music and poetry." ”

I'm sorry, Brother Ning Wang!

Liturgy poetry?

Hearing this, Xiao Pingsi sighed: "Speaking of this, I heard that you have visited mountains and rivers and held many poetry meetings?" ”

"Well, there is such a thing, but they are all weak and sour people, and they don't have any status, just joking." King Zhao hurriedly explained, for fear of being thought that he was deliberately trying to win people's hearts.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Pingsi said with great interest: "I also yearn for the gathering of literati and artists, but I am busy with state affairs, and I really can't spare it...... You go back and put together those interesting poems and send them to me. ”

"Okay, okay, that brother has retired!" King Zhao finally found a chance to say goodbye.

This time, Xiao Pingsi didn't stop it.

When King Zhao walked out of the palace gate, he breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his waist, felt a chill on his back, and realized that his back was already soaked.

"Your Majesty." King Zhao left, and Wang Feng came in with small steps.

Xiao Pingsi said: "The Hanging Sword Division that monitors King Zhao will be removed by half." ”

"Half?" Wang Feng didn't dare to say anything, nodded and ordered.

The temple was empty.

"How's it going for you to check?" Xiao Pingsi asked towards the void.

There was a small door hidden in the screen behind the dragon chair, and a figure walked out, bowing respectfully: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Wei is indeed involved with the masters of the rivers and lakes. ”

"Who is it?" Xiao Pingsi asked lightly.

"The former Emperor Pavilion master list is tenth, and now because of the first on the list, Li Deen has fallen off the list."

"Li Deen?"

Xiao Pingsi nodded: "Where are the others, arrest them." ”

"Your Majesty, this person has left the capital and headed towards the north, and the people along our way are not opponents, so they can only monitor and not move."

"Northland...... Is it for the young master? ”

Xiao Pingsi hurriedly said: "Hurry up and warn the young master, cooperate with the local Hanging Sword Division and the Yulin Army, and take this Li Deen to me!" ”

"Your Majesty...... In this way, His Royal Highness the King of Wei's crime is only afraid that it will be heavier. ”

Xiao Pingsi said coldly: "This rebel ......"

"Then dispose of this Li Deen."

"Yes."

……

The sea ban has been opened, and the mission of the Hanging Sword Division in the East Sea Port can be regarded as a successful conclusion.

But for Xiao Chaoguo, it is definitely not perfect.

Because no matter what, Xiao Lang's death, the royal family will definitely attack him.

Therefore, Xiao Chaoguo did not rush back to Beijing, but supervised the Hanging Sword Division along the way and began to clean up the portal.

The matter in Ganzhou, Bai Qing has already reported it, and Xiao Chaoguo has already learned the news. There are already signs of corruption in the Hanging Sword Division in various places, and Xiao Chaoguo can't let the Hanging Sword Division decay, this is his biggest hole card.

The Hanging Sword Division is too important, and in the judiciary, it is independent of the rest of the judicial institutions, completely autonomous.

If such an organization is used by others, then the emperor will absolutely not tolerate it and will inevitably dismiss it.

At that time, Xiao Chaoguo, who has lost the Hanging Sword Division, will be of little value, and His Majesty is afraid that it will not be maintained.

"Adults spare ......"

The head of the Qidi Hanging Sword Division, Ning Fei personally led people and confiscated his deputy.

Seeing that the deputy secretary knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, kowtowing his head and bleeding, Ning Fei not only did not have any sympathy, but also hated it more and more.

A crime of negligence, I am afraid that it is inevitable.

If you can't trust the first seat and are dismissed, then those who offended in the past will beat the water dogs.

"A mere deputy secretary is actually greedy for millions of taels, how did Ning Fei, your boss, become a boss?" Xiao Chaoguo asked coldly.

"The first lord forgives his sins, this son is usually very upright, and his subordinates never thought that he had already fallen, and his subordinates did neglect." Ning Fei accepted the guilt.

Xiao Chaoguo nodded: "A fine of one year." ”

"Yes......" Ning Fei's face was helpless, he didn't dare to be a corrupt official, and it was really fatal to be fined a year.

Xiao Chaoguo looked at the deputy secretary and said, "What crime should this person be guilty of?" ”

Ning Fei stepped forward and said, "According to the iron law of the Hanging Sword Division, it should be beheaded on the spot, and it will not be tolerated!" ”

"No, escort him to the capital, hand over the evidence of the crime to the Tingwei Mansion, and see what His Majesty intends to deal with." Xiao Chaoguo said lightly.

When Ning Fei heard this, he immediately persuaded: "The first lord, the Hanging Sword Division supervises the world, but now there is such a thing inside, if it is made public, I am afraid that our reputation will be greatly affected......"

"Is there still a clear name?" Xiao Chaoguo snorted.

The crowd was silent.

This kind of thing naturally can't be just that.

Xiao Chaoguo said: "Now Your Majesty hopes that the law will be unified, the Hanging Sword Division will be listed as the three law divisions, and the Tingwei Mansion will be taken out as the highest supervisory body, and our power should also be handed over." ”

"But in this way, the first lord will lose weight in front of your majesty." Ning Fei said worriedly.

In the past, the Hanging Sword Division could handle cases with thunder, and whoever said it could be moved, and the prince or the prince could investigate.

It's just that since this dynasty, it has been weakened, and if it is weaker, it will really become the second criminal department and the imperial history platform.

This was unacceptable to the arrogant Hanging Sword Division, who had always had a sense of superiority.

"Weight?"

Xiao Chaoguo said with a smile: "Only in troubled times can we use heavy codes, and now that Your Majesty is under the rule of the four seas, where do you still need the ruthless Hanging Sword Division, we must follow Your Majesty with interest, so that we will not be eliminated." ”

"You, do you understand?" Xiao Chaoguo glanced at Ning Fei.

On this trip to the East China Seaport, this Ning Fei's performance was very good, otherwise Xiao Chaoguo would not have bothered to explain so much to him.

"Thank you for your advice!" Ning Fei understood and bowed.

"Then continue to check, and follow the normal procedure to check everyone in your department...... Now let's go to your house and see if you have a good deputy. ”

Xiao Chaoguo waved his hand, and the soldiers of the Hanging Sword Division took the deputy position down.

"Yes......"

Not long after, Xiao Chaoguo came to Ning Fei's mansion.

As soon as he looked up, he saw a plaque that read: Ning House.

It's not "Ningfu".

"Good." Xiao Chaoguo nodded slowly, ordinary officials can't call the government at will according to the etiquette system.

Unless it is an official with a title, or a mansion that has been personally sealed by the emperors of previous dynasties, it can hang "mansion" on the plaque.

However, this ritual system has long been basically abandoned, and even the Ministry of Rites rarely mentions it, and everyone is willing to call their own house "mansion".

And this Ning Fei actually remembered that this kind of trivial matter was not arrogant, which made Xiao Chaoguo have some good feelings.

"Let's go, go in and have a look."

"My subordinates will show you the way." Ning Fei naturally took the lead, this was his family, and he knew it best.

But when he entered the house, Xiao Chaoguo frowned: "Why is the courtyard so barren, and even the flowers and plants are not taken care of?" ”

Ning Fei said with a smile: "Xiaguan's family only has one wife's room, and there are few children, and he has to farm around the house, so he naturally doesn't have the heart to take care of this." ”

"Only one wife's room, and still farming?"

Xiao Chaoguo looked at him deeply: "Are you too incorruptible?" ”
