97. Chapter 97

"Hehe, those corrupt officials are so hateful! If the child doesn't get rid of all these moths, I, the lord, can only continue to be a lord who loses money!" Du Long replied with a dry smile.

"Anyway, son, your performance this time is too unexpected for your father and mother!" Zhou Ruoxue still looked a little excited, any mother, if she knew that her baby son was so good, would be as excited as her!

"Actually, it's nothing! The child has a limited time to stay in Fengli County, and can only deal with the affairs of the territory as quickly as possible, since he has the full authority of the territory issued by His Majesty the Emperor, and enjoys the power to cut first and then play in the territory, of course he has to make good use of it!

"Stinky boy!" Du Zhentian on the side couldn't help but interject: "What's the matter with the lion demon at the door?!! Why can't even I see through its strength level?!"

"Well...... Du Long could only repeat the excuse he had used to fool others before, and finally concluded: "Daddy, the reason why you can't see through its strength level, the child can only think that Xiao Lie's level is too low, or maybe it's just an ordinary lion beast!"

Being fooled by Du Long like this, Du Zhentian was also a little uncertain, and from time to time he looked at the fiery red lion lying on the ground at the door, and could faintly feel a trace of danger from it!

"Ling'er!, can my father see Xiao Lie's details clearly?!" Du Long was a little bottomless in his heart, so he secretly asked the beauty of the ring spirit.

"Cut! Even if it is the existence of spiritual level strength, it will definitely not be able to see through Xiao Lie's details, let alone a martial artist in the early stage of Gangdan like your father!

"What kind of collar is so powerful?!Not only can it make a demon beast of Xiao Lie's strength so obedient, but it can also hide the breath on its body?!" Du Long asked again in his heart, he had been curious about this question for a long time, but the beauty of the spirit ring didn't explain it to him clearly.

"Hehe, don't ask so clearly what the collar is, anyway, you don't know even if I say it, you just need to know that this collar is definitely a high-end product!" Sure enough, the Ring Spirit Beauty played Tai Chi again.

Du Zhentian looked at the big lion for a long time, but he didn't see the reason, so he could only give up and shift his attention to Du Long again.

"Stinky boy! Although you were a little ruthless in Fengli County this time, things were really done very well! It is said that the three gold mines in Fengli County located in the Demon Beast Forest are all in your hands, I don't know if you have ever crossed paths with the Fan family? It stands to reason that they should not give up those gold mines so easily!"

"During the cleaning of the gold mines, it was indeed found that they all had the shadow of the Fan family behind them, but those are not enough to be conclusive evidence, and the child is too lazy to care about them! As long as the gold mine is pinched in his hands, as for the Fan family, there is a spirit level existence as a backer, I believe that His Majesty the Emperor is not willing to turn his face with them on the spot in this matter!" Du Long muttered.

"That's right! As long as that old guy of the Fan family doesn't die for a day, we can't easily bring him down! I guess the emperor has long known that there is the shadow of the Fan family behind Fengli County, the reason why he is so anxious to give Fengli County to you, and secretly gave Princess Huofeng that rare holy decree, it is clear that he wants to borrow your hand to deal with the Fan family's power in Fengli County!" Du Zhentian analyzed with a serious face.

"I see! I'll just say! How could His Majesty the Emperor give me such a strange holy decree!" Du Long quietly realized at this time, and at the same time thought in his heart: "It seems that my own vision of problems has always been not as sophisticated as my father's. ’......

In the imperial study of the Imperial Palace, the same scene is being staged as the Du Mansion!

"Hahaha!" Emperor Qin Ying looked up to the sky and smiled, and only after a long time did he turn his gaze to a secret piece in his hand.

"Okay, good!" After saying two good words in a row, he said loudly to the Jinyi court steward who was standing aside: "Zhang Quan! I just heard you say that Feng'er is back?

"Obey!" Zhang Quan, the steward of the Jinyi Palace, bowed down to receive the order and hurriedly went, and after about half an hour, he came back again, and after a bow, he led Princess Huofeng into the well-defended imperial study.

"Father, are you looking for a son?!" Princess Huofeng's voice came in before she arrived.

The emperor looked up with a smile and replied: "Hehe, you child! You are already the prospective daughter-in-law of someone else's family, and you are still so frizzy!"

"Hehe-hee!" Huo Feng had already come to the side of the imperial book, pulled the emperor's elbow and said coquettishly: "No matter whether people marry or not, they will always be the good daughter of their father!"

"That's right! My father loves to hear this sentence the most! No matter whether my precious daughter marries or not, she will always be the heart of my father, hahaha!" The emperor laughed heartily and said: "It's not good that I haven't seen you for a long time, as soon as I heard Zhang Quan say that you have returned to the palace, I immediately ordered him to go and call you! How about it, Fengli County and his party are going well, right? You can tell your father about everything that happened along the way!"

So, Princess Huofeng began to describe all the things that happened during her trip to Fengli County, and the emperor seemed to listen to it with great interest on the side, nodding his head incessantly, in fact, he had already received all kinds of things that happened to Princess Huofeng's trip, but it was not so detailed.

When Huo Feng talked about Du Long's angry beheading of dozens of corrupt officials, she couldn't help but peek at the change in the emperor's expression, and after seeing that he still kept a smile on his face and didn't feel angry about it, she continued to tell with a smile.

It wasn't until she had finished telling all the stories of her trip to Fengli County that Princess Huofeng blinked her big beautiful eyes and said in a coquettish voice: "Father, although what Du Long did in Fengli County this time was a little too ruthless!

"Hehe! A man who does great things must be bold and courageous! Father will not blame Du Juma for what he did in Fengli County, on the contrary, if he does not dare to do anything when I provide such an advantage! Then I will doubt his ability!" The emperor sighed with emotion: "However, Du Juma's performance this time really opened my father's eyes!"

"Hehe, then, Father won't blame Du Long for what he did in Fengli County?!" Huo Feng exclaimed in surprise.

"Of course! When that stinky boy killed those corrupt officials in public, he actually knew how to say, 'On behalf of His Majesty the Emperor, Fengli County is also a bright blue sky!' not only achieved his own prestige in Fengli County, but also made his father follow him a little light!

"Okay! What Du Juma did in Fengli County this time has already shaken the entire Haotian Empire, and it has also caused a strong reaction in the capital, no matter what, he has killed dozens of officials of the empire, and his father must have a gesture in this matter, and his father will summon him tomorrow morning!"

"Zhang Quan! Spread my will, Xuan Du Long's horse will enter the Hajj with his father, General Zhongwu, early tomorrow morning!"

"Obey the order!" After Zhang Quan, who was waiting to stand aside, received the order, he immediately went out to arrange for the eunuch to leave the palace and go to the Du Mansion to announce the decree......

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Du Long, under the leadership of his father, appeared neatly dressed on the main hall of the palace!

On the hall of hundreds of civil and military officials like this, there are occasionally non-civil and military officials like him because of the emperor's summons, and at other times, it is impossible for any non-official status to set foot here!

His appearance naturally attracted onlookers from hundreds of civil and military officials, and many officials who were good friends with the Du family stepped forward to greet Du Zhentian, and everyone did not forget to say hello to Du Long politely, after all, he is no longer the second ancestor of waste back then, and he also has the identity of a quasi-concubine!

For these officials who are good friends with the Du family, Du Long can only respond humbly one by one, no way, his identity is different now, his words and deeds are no longer his own business, not only representing the grandson of the Du family, but also representing the image that the master of the dynasty should have!

As for those officials who don't have a good relationship with the Du family, they didn't come to say hello, so he naturally didn't need to be bored, he just needed to stay quietly and honestly behind his father.

Soon, the emperor finally came late, and after the civil and military hundred officials shouted long live and bowed, they all got up and stood still!

"Did Du Fuma follow General Zhongwu to the palace today?!" On the dragon throne, Emperor Longmu looked at the second-grade martial arts area where Du Zhentian was standing from afar, and said in a deep voice.

"Du Long has seen the emperor!" Du Long, who was standing beside Du Zhentian, could only walk out of the queue with a hard head, and then respectfully saluted.

"Hehe!" the emperor nodded with a smile and said, "I think everyone knows that Du Juma made this trip to Fengli County, killed twenty or thirty corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and finally returned the deeds of the people under the jurisdiction of Fengli County, right?"

"That's right! The reason why I gave Fengli County to Du Juma this time, and secretly decreed that Du Juma be given full authority to take charge of Fengli County, and have the power to cut first and then play in the county jurisdiction, is to open the black curtain that has formed for many years in Fengli County as soon as possible!"

"What makes me very gratified is that Du Juma really lived up to my expectations, and in just a few days, he turned things around, not only opened the black curtain of Fengli County, beheaded dozens of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but also successfully nationalized three gold mines that had been occupied by private individuals!"

The emperor paused when he said this, and his eyes seemed to glance at the position where Fan De was standing, and the one surnamed Fan was really worthy of being an old fox who had mixed up with the position of the left minister in the officialdom, and he actually looked like he didn't care about anything, and he still had a respectful smile on his face.

On the dragon seat, Emperor Qin Ying continued to speak with a faint smile on his face: "In just ten days, Fengli County, a county that has made the empire lose money year after year, has miraculously made a profit, and the empire not only does not need to invest a lot of money and resources in Fengli County, but also receives a large amount of taxes every year!"

"All of this is the credit of Du Juma, and today I will summon Du Juma into the palace, and I will reward him for his meritorious deeds!"
