On the other side, Qiao Hongshun has been promoted.

The fact that the county lieutenant had been gone for so long and hadn't come back made him feel a little uneasy.

Just as he was about to send someone to Yunwailou to check what was going on, the county lieutenant returned.

Behind him, there were two more people.

Seeing that he had been promoted, the county lieutenant immediately took two quick steps.

"My lord, the man has been brought back."

"L-"

The startling wood in Qiao Hongshun's hand was raised high, but when he saw clearly who it was.

The body stood up slowly unconsciously, and the last 'tang', the voice was so small that only he could hear it.

Although the people who came on the surface, they were two young sons.

But he could tell at a glance that one of the sons looked very similar to His Majesty today.

If it's just that this person looks alike, maybe it's a coincidence, and it's not terrible.

The terrible thing is that the son who is standing half a position behind this person is clearly the emperor - Li Yunsheng!

The identities of those two are self-evident, and this can never be a coincidence.

There is only one truth, His Majesty's private visit has arrived in Longxi County.

In just one shot, Qiao Hongshun has already figured out all the joints.

He hurriedly put down the shocking wood in his hand, walked quickly around the table, and knelt on the ground with a thud.

"Minister, Qiao Hongshun, knock on Your Majesty."

When he knelt down, he directly made all the people in the yamen stupid.

The county lieutenant walked easily and bent over to his side.

"Your Excellency?"

Seeing that the group of people under him hadn't reacted yet, Qiao Hongshun said angrily.

"This is today, don't kneel down yet!"

Hearing this, everyone in the yamen knelt on the ground one by one, and didn't dare to say more.

The county lieutenant only felt that the fifty taels of silver in his hand were like coals of fire.

In front of the Son of Heaven, he accepted fifty taels of silver from the Son of Heaven's close ministers......

Not only Qiao Hongshun was surprised, but Li Yunsheng and Jiang Qingying were also surprised.

Qiao Hongshun, a former member of the Zhongshu Provincial Zhongshu House, is a staunch member of the Fei Party.

Of course, when the empress had not yet ascended the throne, she was seized by Li Dang and presented to the emperor.

In the end, the demotion became a county magistrate.

If it weren't for Fei Su's maneuvering, Qiao Hongshun would have been dismissed directly.

Of course, he did not wait for the day of the victory of the Fei party, because Fei Su was already dead.

And he, a former member of the Fei Party, has also lost the possibility of a comeback.

He could only guard this small Longxi County and desperately tie up with his boss.

Otherwise, if you are unhappy one day, you can get rid of his county order at any time.

After all, there is no longer the Fei Party, and the situation in the DPRK and China has changed greatly, leaving only the Li Party and the royalist Party of Yoo Cheng's faction.

Because too much time has passed, and he only knew that Qiao Hongshun was demoted to a county magistrate.

Therefore, when they learned from the bandits that the county commander of Longxi County was surnamed Qiao, Li Yunsheng and Jiang Qingying didn't think much about it.

Jiang Qingying had a cold face, and sat down in the main seat of the main hall without a glance.

It was only after Li Yunsheng, who was following closely behind, that he stood beside her before he spoke.

"Just now, the county lieutenant told me that someone reported that I and Li Qing had killed two people and asked us to come to Yamen."

Syllable!

Shocked, she stared at Qiao Hongshun who was kneeling on the ground and asked.

"I'm here, what does the Qiao County Commander want to ask?"

Originally, she wanted to hear Li Yunsheng's words, but this matter will not be dealt with for the time being.

But everyone came to the door, and she couldn't do it anymore.

Qiao Hongshun hurriedly explained.

"Don't dare, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."

"Where is the person who reported it, bring it for me to see."

"The whistleblower—"

Qiao Hongshun was speechless for a while, where did he find the person who reported it, it was just that Xie Qing sent someone to report the news.

"The person who reported it has been verified, but it is a false accusation by Diao Min, and he has been blasted out of the government by the lower officials."

Originally, he wanted to bring people to the yamen, and ask a few questions to see how much the other party knew.

Now it's time to arrest Your Majesty directly.

Fortunately, the county lieutenant invited people back to the yamen, not escorted them back to the yamen.

Otherwise, don't say that the official can't keep it, and you can't keep your head.

"Okay, then I will be the whistleblower, and the two people who reported were killed by Li Qing himself."

Qiao Hongshun chuckled in his heart, raised his head slightly, and looked at Li Yunsheng with his spare eyes.

Li Yunsheng said.

"Those two people are bandits in the mountains, so they are the ones who eliminate harm for the people."

Hearing the word bandit, Qiao Hongshun shook his body and hurriedly flattered.

"Li Xiang eliminated harm for the people, and killed well!"

Jiang Qingying was not happy.

"Qiao County ordered no one to send someone to search for evidence to confirm whether those two people were bandits, and the case was closed?"

"Li Xiang kills people, no evidence is needed."

"What?"

"No, the minister means that Li Xiang is the pillar of the country, and he will never do anything that violates the law."

The county lieutenant kneeling beside him was already frightened, and there were only two words buzzing in his mind: Li Xiang.

Although he has never been to Jingshi, there are a few Li Xiang in Dachu who still knows, and there is only one!

He had just taken fifty taels of silver from Dangchao Zaifu, and thinking of this, he couldn't support his body anymore.

With a thud, he fell headlong and lay on the ground.

Jiang Qingying didn't pay attention to the county lieutenant lying on the ground, since she came to the county office, she didn't plan to take things lightly.

"Then Li Qing said that you colluded with the bandits, can I directly press you into prison!"

Qiao Hongshun's head kept hitting the ground, thumping.

"Your Majesty, the minister has been wronged, I hope Your Majesty will see it!"

"Someone came, took off Qiao Hongshun's top and put him in prison."

On the side, Li Yunsheng's eyes were slightly condensed, the empress was too impulsive.

Jiang Qingying slapped angrily: "Do you all want to resist the decree?" ”

hurriedly stood up tremblingly and walked to Qiao Hongshun's side.

"Adult ......"

Qiao Hongshun raised his head and made a final struggle.

"Your Majesty, the minister is wronged, the minister is wronged!"

Jiang Qingying stood up and pointed at Qiao Hongshun and scolded angrily.

"Even the people in Qingshan Town say that there have always been bandits nearby, don't you know about this county parent official?

I will not kill you now, lest I say that I have wronged you.

When I sent someone to exterminate the bandits, there was evidence. ”

After speaking, he waved his hand.

"Put him in jail!"

The words have already been said for this part, Qiao Hongshun can already guess his ending.

His Majesty probably knows the truth, and when Xie Qing is exterminated, whether there is evidence or not, it will be his death.

Ever since the empress was about to press Qiao Hongshun into prison, he turned on his natural skills and kept an eye on Qiao Hongshun.

"Longxi County Cheng Ke?"

An old man with gray hair kneeling on the ground said respectfully.

"Chenlongxi County, Meng Delin."

"You are temporarily acting as the county magistrate of Longxi County."

"Obey the order!"

Jiang Qingying turned her head to look at Li Yunsheng and said in a low voice.

"Let's go."

Unexpectedly, Li Yunsheng shook his head slightly, but he was not in a hurry to leave.

He walked over to the county lieutenant, leaned down, and hooked his fingers.

The county lieutenant immediately understood, and hurriedly took out fifty taels of silver from his sleeve and offered it with both hands.

"The villain has eyes but no beads, please forgive Li Xiang."

Li Yunsheng didn't pick it up immediately, but asked.

"What I just gave you is obviously a hundred taels, but you returned fifty taels.

Why, do you still want to be greedy for your own money? ”

The four officials behind him looked at each other, Li Xiang was so dark!

The county lieutenant gritted his teeth with tears in his eyes.

"The fifty taels, the minister forgot at home, the minister will send someone to get it now."

In this poor and remote place, he was greedy for half a lifetime to save fifty taels.

The thought of giving it to someone else hurts his heart.

Li Yunsheng took the silver and said in a low voice.

"Lead the way, Your Majesty has a few words, and I want to talk to Qiao County Ling alone."

The county lieutenant came back to his senses, wiped a handful of tears, and quickly stood up and bowed.

"Your Majesty, please come with your ministers."

Jiang Qingying walked down, stood beside Li Yunsheng and asked in a low voice.

"What do you want to do?"

Li Yunsheng only replied with two words.

"Kill."
