Although I thought so, I was afraid that there was something urgent, so I could only get up in a hurry and change into official clothes to see him.

As soon as they met, they saw this former colleague, with sweat on his face, and his official robe was also a little wrinkled, looking like this, it seemed that he had come over overnight, and Governor Zhao was chuckled in his heart.

"Governor Qi, you asked to see you so early, but you have something important?"

"Your Excellency the Governor, the Commander does have something important to report to you. Qi Hongxin lowered his head and said.

"There was a man in Shun'an Province who took the lead in making trouble, gathered thousands of people, and forced the government to change the water shrine into a locust shrine, and it was not allowed to kill locusts, otherwise there would be riots. ”

As soon as he said this, Governor Zhao sank, and the popular uprising was the most taboo.

"The official's persuasion was fruitless, so he ordered the suppression and beheaded the chief evil and 53 party henchmen......"

"Wait, how many people are you talking about?" Governor Zhao, who was relieved and only squinted and listened, directly widened his eyes, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears.

Qi Hongxin lowered his eyes and said again: "Xiaguan ordered the suppression and beheaded the fifty-three people. ”

"Fifty-three people!" Governor Zhao couldn't help but walk back and forth a few times before he looked at him, his face full of helplessness: "Governor Qi, Qi is the same year, don't you think there are some people who have been killed?"

"In times of war, it's just that, in this peaceful and prosperous world, because of the locusts, fifty-three people were killed, and there were too many people, right? If this, if this spreads, how can it be obtained? If the court knows, I, the governor, will not be able to get out of it!"

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, the lower official has apologized to the court. Qi Hongxin said immediately.

Needless to say, the meaning is also very clear, which means that this matter was done by him alone, and it will never affect Governor Zhao.

The matter has come to this point, everyone has been killed, and it is useless to dwell on this matter anymore, Governor Zhao glanced at Qi Hongxin deeply, and felt helpless.

Qi Hongxin can take responsibility, which makes him feel a little better, in fact, he is in Qi Hongxin's position, and when he encounters this, he is afraid that he will act like this.

After all, he is a person who can go to the official position of governor and take charge of the affairs of a province, how can Governor Zhao not know that this matter is actually the most appropriate to deal with this matter?

If you don't suppress this evil wind and let it sweep away, then it will not only be a matter of Thuan An Prefecture, but the entire province will be reprimanded.

It's just that he has killed too many people, even if Qi Hongxin has merit in quelling the chaos, I'm afraid it will be offset by merit and demerits.

After thinking about it, Governor Zhao also knew that this Qi Hongxin still had some ability, so he changed his face at the moment: "However, you don't have to worry too much, although you ordered to kill fifty-three people, but after all, the bullet pressure is powerful, the cause and effect of this matter are explained in advance, and the court will definitely know, and it is not too much to do this." ”

"Don't worry, the court will reward you for this, and it will be fine. ”

Qi Hongxin coughed, but there was no joy on his face, as if this matter was not important to this person regardless of the outcome.

Many people always feel that they are neither humble nor arrogant, and their joy and anger are not good, but in fact, they are misunderstandings, and Governor Zhao originally had a little pity for this person, but when he saw this appearance, he subconsciously gave birth to a trace of disgust.

After all, even if he knew what happened back then, Qi Hongxin's actions were excusable, but over the years, it has become natural for anyone who knows what happened back then to faintly reject Qi Hongxin.

Governor Zhao was no exception, when he saw that the matter was finished, he felt that the matter was probably over, and advised: "It's just that this matter, in fact, there is no need to ride over overnight to report to me, since the matter is pressed, it doesn't matter a few hours later." I see that your face is haggard, you must be tired, go back and rest first, if there is anything, you can write an official document and send someone to me. ”

This is the eviction order.

Qi Hongxin did not leave with the situation, but suddenly puffed and knelt down for Governor Zhao.

This grand gift, although it is not too much because of the difference in grade, but usually no one will give such a big gift to Shangguan for no reason.

Governor Zhao chuckled again in his heart, his eyebrows were twisted, but he had to smile reluctantly and go to help: "Governor Qi, what's wrong with you, you?"

Qi Hongxin's face was sad, and he pleaded: "Your Excellency, the situation of the shortage of Shun'an Mansion, you understand, now is the critical time to exterminate the locusts, but there is no silver and no food, how to exterminate the locusts, I am on behalf of all the people of Shun'an Mansion, salute you, please allocate silver, save Shun'an Mansion!"

Governor Zhao pulled it, but he didn't pull up Qi Hongxin, this is simply a trick, if he didn't agree to allocate the silver, would he not be able to come up?

Why didn't he see that Qi Hongxin's face was so thick?

"You two, why don't you help up the Qi Governor's Mansion quickly?" Unable to help him up, Governor Zhao immediately gave the door servant a look.

Immediately, two people came in, one on the left and one on the right, almost forcibly dragging Qi Hongxin to get up.

Governor Zhao's face was not very good-looking at the moment: "Governor Qi, it's not that this official doesn't help you, it's really that there is no extra silver in the treasury!"

"You are also a prefect, of course you know that even if you have silver, it has its own use, and it cannot be easily misappropriated. ”

Qi Hongxin begged again: "Your Excellency, if you have more, if you have less, although the Yamen of the Water Control has promised to repay the silver, but I want to go to the door, they can't take it out!

If others ask for this, or Governor Zhao can still pity him.

But Qi Hongxin looked pitiful, thinking that this person was involved with the prince, and he would betray the lord for his life at a critical time, Governor Zhao still hardened his heart.

If this is spread out, won't you be pitted yourself?

Whether it is involved with the prince or betraying the master, it is not good, it is a fishy smell.

Thinking of this, Governor Zhao changed color and scolded: "Governor Qi, I originally read the same year, and I persuaded you with good words, but I don't want you to be stubborn." ”

"The crime of privately borrowing the feudal treasury is a matter that the emperor prohibits, you are a person from several prefects, how can you not know? Even if you are not afraid, the official is still afraid of being accused! There is no need to say anything more about this matter! Someone is coming! Send the prefect of Qi out!"

gave up the last cheek, and couldn't ask for silver, Qi Hongxin's face was like ashes, and he was sent out half-supported and half-pulled.

was "sent" out of the Governor's Palace, turned around and looked at the door that slammed shut, Qi Hongxin looked at it for a while, and tears suddenly flowed down the corners of his eyes.

"It's all my sin, and I don't want to implicate the people of the whole county!" Then he didn't even lead his horse or ride, and staggered down the street in despair, towards the distance.

"My lord!" The county soldiers who were waiting outside were a little at a loss when they saw this scene, but in this case, because they didn't know what was going on, they didn't dare to come forward and ask, so they could only lead the horse and follow cautiously.

Someone followed, saw the scene, turned around, and ran back.
