"Come on, come on, all of you fill out the form first."
"We understand your anxiety right now."
“But this is what’s required from above.”
"Don't worry, as long as the sea salt is fine, it will pass the customs soon."
Tie Niu made arrangements with a smile.
As the saying goes, don't strike a smiling face. This was also Ning Que's request. Regardless, when they questioned him, he uniformly shirked responsibility and said it was arranged by the higher-ups. He asked them to fill out the form and submit it first, but there was no telling when the review would be completed.
"stop!"
"Stop it, my king!"
"Hey, Prince Qi is here?!"
"We have met the prince."
Tian Zhongxun walked slowly towards them with a gloomy face.
He glanced at the so-called document.
Hundreds of questions are listed from top to bottom.
What’s your name?
What’s your father’s name?
What’s your mother’s name?
Where are you from
Where to go from here?
…
What kind of bullshit questions are these?!
"Is this what Prince Ning meant?"
"No, no, no, this was arranged by the county governor."
"Are you talking about Ouyang Zheng?"
"Exactly."
Tian Zhongxun's face showed a cold expression as he took off the jade pendant from his waist.
"Do you recognize the words?"
"I'm sorry, I can't read."
“???”
Tian Zhongxun almost vomited blood due to anger.
You still can't read?
Of course he knew Tie Niu.
This is Ning Que’s number one gold medal fighter.
During the reign of Prince Ning, this dog was raised in the palace.
He was originally from Xiliang, but later surrendered to Dafeng.
At first, some people in Xiliang questioned Tie Niu.
They said he betrayed Xiliang and turned into a dog!
But Tie Niu didn't care at all.
What's wrong with being a dog as soon as you open your mouth?
Tie Niu has a strong learning ability.
Not only can he speak Feng language, but he can also read and write.
How could he be illiterate?
"This is the king's order!"
"I thought Your Highness wanted to ask me if this jade pendant looked good."
Tian Zhongxun had a gloomy face.
Naturally, I knew that Tie Niu was deliberately making trouble.
"Stop chatting with me here."
"I'm just asking you, what's the problem with this batch of sea salt?"
“Why are they all being seized?”
"Even if there's a problem, we can just pull it back!"
"No, no, no, Your Highness is unaware of this." Tie Niu pretended to be embarrassed. "There was something wrong with the sea salt we brought back last time. Several people were poisoned after taking it. Doctor Chang determined that the sea salt was poisonous. It's very likely that the production process was poor, or the long journey caused the sea salt to rot, ultimately leading to the poisoning."
The journey is long?
Is sea salt spoiled?
Bullshit!
"How can salt go bad?"
"Then I don't know." Tie Niu spread his hands and said helplessly, "I am speaking the truth. If you have any questions, please don't embarrass me."
"Go, go and call Ouyang Zheng to me!"
"Your Highness, please forgive me. The governor has gone to Gaotang County."
“???”
Okay, okay, let’s try this, right?
Tian Zhongxun almost vomited blood due to anger.
Isn't this just a deliberate trick on them?
Believe it or not, even if you go to Gaotang, you won’t be able to find Ouyang Zheng?
"Then go call Ning Que!"
"Your Highness, please be mindful of how you address me." The smile on Tie Niu's face vanished as he spoke coldly, "My Highness is a prince, while you are a prince of a different surname. In terms of rank, my Highness is superior to you. What qualifications do you have to address my Highness by his first name, and even boss him around like that?! If you want to see my Highness, please send someone to deliver a petition. Once my Highness agrees, he will see you."
“You…you…”
Tian Zhongxun's eyes were red.
At this moment, I wish I could just take action.
But there is nothing wrong with what Tie Niu said.
Ning Que is a prince!
And he, Tian Zhongxun, was just a king of a different surname.
There is still one level difference between the two!
"Also, I have to remind King Qi Ju."
"This is Linzi, the territory of Dafeng!"
"It's not in Jiaodong, or Langya."
"Any arrangements for Linzi are the responsibility of the county governor."
"Even if the King of Qi is a prince, he has no right to interfere."
"If you are dissatisfied, Your Highness can go to Chang'an."
"Oh……"
Tian Zhongxun's eyes were cold.
At this moment, the anger was about to explode.
Looking at the traveling merchant behind him, he was also being held up.
It is obvious that Ning Que has gained a firm foothold.
So we started to take the initiative to attack.
Now he completely understood.
From the beginning to the end, Ning Que was playing with them!
The claim of lack of sea salt is probably just a pretext.
Deliberately waiting for them to deliver the sea salt.
Is there any wolf that doesn’t eat meat?
Hearing the price of sea salt had gone up, they were definitely lucky. They had just arrived in Linzi when they were all detained. The key point was that the process was perfectly reasonable, and they had no complaints at all.
The governor of Dafeng County held immense power and often exercised autonomy. As long as they didn't flagrantly violate the law, no one else had the right to overstep their authority. Take Linzi County, for example, where Tian Zhongxun couldn't even control it. If he suffered injustice, he could go to Chang'an City and complain to Ouyang Zheng.
But unfortunately, I can only endure it now!
Because Linzi is no longer his fiefdom!
But it is the territory of Dafeng!
“When will the review be completed?”
"Your Highness, please forgive me. We are currently very short-handed in Linzi City. After all, before Your Highness left, he took all the capable people with him. Let alone inspecting the sea salt, there aren't even enough county soldiers in the city. Otherwise, we wouldn't be responsible for it. Furthermore, the amount of sea salt this time is very large. We don't know when we can complete the inspection."
