Nanmu boxes containing gold and silver jewelry were constantly unearthed, and the number far exceeded Mo Leaf's estimate, and the area that needed to be dug deeper was constantly expanding, and one night was not enough.

After a full three days of delay by the Shuo River, it was already November 19 when the deep pit was filled.

Xiao Dou led the people of Wudu back to the fortress, Mo Lingfeng, Wu Jin and his party returned to the city, rested until noon, and then went to Hou Fuzhong's mansion together to meet the envoy who had lost several pounds in a hurry.

When the envoy Zhang Fengfeng heard the news, he hurried to the door of the Hou Mansion and greeted him: "General Mo, I didn't expect that we would meet in Kuanzhou."

Mo Lingfeng didn't get off the horse, he glanced at him high, his eyes seemed to be looking at a cloud of filth, so he swept it away and didn't stay too long.

Zhang Xianfeng didn't get a smiley face, and he was dumbfounded.

It was not Mo Leaf's arrogance, as she always was, that he was staring at, but her brazen disrespect, her top-down contempt, her contempt for him and his master.

That understatement is ironclad evidence.

The tongue is stammered because of fear.

The careless indifference in her eyes was more piercing than the wind and snow in Kuanzhou.

Hou Fuzhong came out after Zhang Xianfeng, and when he saw Zhang Xianfeng's stunned face, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet Mo Lingfeng.

He had a loyalty to the emperor - but because the Mo family could really let him die, his loyalty had to come and go.

"General Mo is hard, please get off the horse and enter," he struggled to maintain a smile, and when he saw Wu Jin get out of the carriage, he stepped forward again, "Wu Tong is hard, please." Look at the book

Mo Lingfeng entered first, the guards did not squint, walked past Zhang Fengfeng, the armor was rough, like a strong wind hitting him, the handle of the long knife rampage, without restraint, forced him to the rear, he pinched the edict in his sleeve, his back was close to the pillar, a face changed color back and forth, after all, he did not dare to turn his face.

They were followed by Hou Fuzhong and Wu Jin.

Wu Jin saw that the envoy was Zhang Xian, and arched his hand and said, "I didn't expect the nobles to come to pass the edict."

Zhang Xianfeng leaned sideways to the side, and saw that Wu Jin's face was no longer as healthy as before, but his demeanor was calm, he walked as usual, and he was not trapped by the injury of the court cane, so he smiled and said: "It is Your Majesty's favor, Wu Tong's judgment recovers quickly, he is young, and his body is good, so he can bear it."

Wu Jin never told anyone about the damage to his viscera, and only a few people knew about it, so he just smiled casually when he heard it: "Please."

Hou Fuzhong hurriedly stretched out his hand forward: "Please, please."

Mo Lingfeng, who had already walked into the front hall, suddenly stopped, turned around to look at the three people who were still at the gate, and stopped to wait for Wu Jin to step forward.

Wu Jin stepped off the platform, Zhang Xianfeng followed closely behind him, and a pair of eyes saw everything he could see.

They both knew each other's intention in sending Zhang to worship - to find out the truth about Kuanzhou.

Zhang Xianfeng said as he walked: "I heard that Wu Tong sentenced him to check the fish scale book outside the city, it was really hard, why is this matter so difficult to investigate, it takes several days and nights?"

"How can it be said that the things in the minister's work are hard," Wu Jin's smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, "The fish scale book has always been a millimeter of difference, it is easy to make a book, it is difficult to verify, it has been stretched out, it is inconvenient to recycle, and if you are neglected, I hope that the nobles will forgive me."

Zhang Xianfeng hurriedly waved his hand: "Look at what you said, I'm an idler, don't worry about waiting."

"If you are an idler, we are even more of a contemplative eater, I don't know who is serving the decoction when Your Majesty leaves you?"

"Your Majesty is in good health, and with the queen and crown prince by your side, Wu Tongju doesn't have to worry about it."

Wu Jin walked towards Mo Lingfeng, his eyes quietly gentle: "General Mo's brother passed away, General Mo was grief-stricken, I thought of the misfortune of King Wei, and I saw in the tabloids that His Majesty did not go to court on the 22nd of last month, so I am worried about Your Majesty."

Zhang Xianfeng's face changed slightly, and he forced a smile: "The news of the tabloids is really more than the news of the court, Your Majesty is really sad to hear the news of the King of Wei, so if you don't go to the court, your body is fine."

He avoided Wu Jin's inquiry into the emperor as much as possible, but Wu Jin still got a glimpse of one or two from his words and deeds - the prince and the queen were waiting by his side, and one day, the emperor's health would definitely be poor.

Wu Jin smiled and walked quickly

Behind Mo Lingfeng, he entered the front hall.

In the front hall, incense tables are placed early, incense is burned in the smoker, and everything that receives the order has been placed.

Zhang Xianfeng did not repeat any more, took out the holy decree, and after everyone knelt down to receive the decree, he read it aloud:

"I Shao Yingjun's life, I heard that Mo Qianlan, the prefect Li Qing, the former Kuanzhou Festival, is not easy to die, and Mo Qianlan is specially given to the Wen Pavilion to be systematized, and the official Li Qing has a son, and he has 5,000 dollars.

Kuanzhou Prefecture and County are not wider than before, and the official is five times the old, the tax is eroded, the resignation is floating, and the official is no longer transferred, and Wu Jin is sentenced to be transferred, and he is reappointed as the prefect of Kuanzhou.

After that, we will work together to carry out practical government and promote the Jining Bang family."

After the decree was read, everyone congratulated each other, and their faces were full of joy, but Hou Fuzhong sensed the abnormality from the holy decree full of promotions, and a worry rose in his heart.

The governor and the prefect did not have a supplementary official?

He looked at Wu Jin, who had a calm face, and stretched out his hand to invite everyone to sit down and let the next person serve tea.

Zhang Xianfeng glanced at Mo Lingfeng, bowed slightly, and stretched out his hand to the first seat: "General Mo, please take a seat."

Zhang Fengfeng is a permanent attendant of the emperor's side, and he is an envoy, who came on behalf of His Majesty to declare the holy decree, and should have been in the first seat, and it was a courtesy to let him go, but he never thought that Mo Lingfeng did not shirk, stepped forward, sat on the first seat, put his hands on the armrests of the chair, and sat flat and stable.

Hou Fuzhong was numb to Mo Lingfeng's audacity, and let Zhang Fengfeng and Wu Jin sit on Mo Lingfeng's right side, and he sat on the left side, opposite Wu Jin.

As soon as his buttocks were next to the chair, he heard Zhang Xian say, "General Mo, there is another matter, which should have been sent by the Privy Council to send an official document, but His Majesty ordered the ministers to say it directly——"

He cleared his throat: "The court wants to eliminate those who are more than 50 and weak in the army, and the military households in Gaopingzhai who have reported to the Shumi Courtyard have nearly 2,000 people who need to be eliminated.

As the words fell, he closed his eyes, ready to take a teapot from Mo Lingfeng.

The Mo family has a firm foothold with the army and lays off 2,000 people, which will greatly shake the morale of the army.

But the emperor is not aimed at Kuanzhou, all states will be eliminated, if Mo Lingfeng does not follow the will, it will be the target of the public - verbal criticism and writing, it has always been the ability of civil ministers, and Mo Lingfeng's reputation is not good.

Mo Lingfeng unexpectedly did not move.

Wu Jin turned to look at Zhang Xian: "Your Majesty's redundant troops are for the sake of the country.

However, Kuanzhou is an important frontier defense area, its situation is different, there are more than 50 soldiers and the sword is not old, and the dwarf also has the ability to pull out the mountain and carry the tripod, and also ask Zhang Fengfeng to convey to His Majesty, can Gao Pingzhai decide to eliminate military households and report to the imperial court?

Also, the soldiers fought for the country, and after the elimination of the country, how will the country be settled?"
