Chapter 499: First Meeting



Captain Ma, Captain Ye, and County Magistrate Fang gathered together and held a meeting.

"Now that Xiao Hongxuan is in our hands, will Prince Rui take any action?"

"Who should I send? The Crown Prince is so shrewd, and the Third Young Master has fallen before. It's impossible for Prince Rui to do it himself, right?"

"A vassal king is not allowed to leave his fiefdom without permission unless summoned by the emperor."

"The princes were not allowed to interfere in local government affairs, to privately associate with officials, or to own armies. What did he not do?"

The three of them were silent for a while. Perhaps it was not that Prince Rui was extending his hand too far, but that the late emperor had given too much.

A new emperor appoints new ministers. The one sitting on the dragon throne now will not care about the deep affection between brothers like the previous emperor.

Prince Rui in the eyes of the late emperor: a brother born of the same mother, who was friendly and respectful to him, had a deep brotherly love, and was loyal to him.

In the eyes of the current emperor, Prince Rui is guilty of defaulting on grain taxes, having private relations with ministers, maintaining his own military power, and amassing wealth without restraint. His crimes are too numerous to list.

County Magistrate Fang whispered tentatively, "I heard that Boss Han entrusted the person to Captain Ma?"

Ma Zhao...

What do you want to say? I have a bad feeling.

As a local official, it was his responsibility to maintain peace in the area. Fang Jun cleared his throat twice and said righteously, "I think you should take the Second Young Master back to the Qianhu Office. It's not that Huaning County is unwilling to receive distinguished guests, but the reception standards are limited."

He first asked the troublemakers to leave, and then started to cry poor. He did a great job, worthy of being a civil servant. Ye Qi was in awe.

Ma Zhao took on the hot potato himself, what does it have to do with them?

Thinking of this, Ye Qi leaned towards Fang Jun and calmly drew a clear line between himself and Captain Ma.

Ma Zhao thought he used to be very talkative, but recently he has often been speechless.

Su Shien was also speechless at this moment. As soon as he arrived at the Huaning County Government Office, he found that Yuger had disappeared. Could this be the legendary "disappearing"?

They are going to inspect the workshop today and then return to the Tongpan Mansion.

Fortunately, the county government office was not big, and Su Shien quickly found Han, who was acting suspiciously.

You're on someone else's turf, and "Overheard" is happening again. Can't you just go in and listen openly?

Is it possible that being sneaky is exciting?

Ahem, what are you thinking? He's a gentleman!

Ma Zhao's ability level is at the early stage of level two. If Han Zeyu doesn't want to reveal his whereabouts, he will be completely unable to sense it. The reason is simple: the gap in strength is too great.

But Han Zeyu didn't want to hide it. He was upright and honest. Even if he was eavesdropping, he would do it openly.

Ma Zhao took the initiative to speak, but Han Zeyu refused to listen.

When people talk secretly, Han Zeyu has to listen.

In this regard, Su Shien's evaluation was that someone was in debt and would not move forward if he was led, but would move backward if he was beaten.

Ma Zhao's understanding of Han Zeyu was rather one-sided. He believed that Han Zeyu wanted to know the cause but did not want to bear the consequences.

The emperor obviously wanted to place the heavy burden on Han Zeyu's shoulders, but was afraid that he would quit, so he transferred the three of them over to serve this gentleman.

Ma Zhao felt that His Majesty was thinking too much. Han Zeyu didn't want to carry the burden at all, so how could he give it up?

Han Zeyu thought that this small group of three was plotting something, but this is the result?

He turned around boredly and saw his husband standing ten meters away, looking at him helplessly.

Han Zeyu ran over happily and threw himself into Su Shien's arms, and the two of them stuck together sweetly again.

The three people in the hall only then heard the noise, and Ma Zhao was speechless again.

Can't you just come in and listen openly? Give me a hint of what you want to hear!

Ma Zhaoteng stood up. He was determined to talk to Han Zeyu today.

Seeing that Captain Ma had a heroic look on his face, Ye Qi was afraid that he would be thrown back into the retraining process.

After all, he still had some understanding of Boss Han's fighting ability.

"Captain Ma, don't be impulsive. Think about your old father, the children crying out for food, and Lord Zhou who was once paralyzed in bed..."

Ma Zhao was filled with anger. His father lived a more carefree life than him, and his son had been weaned long ago and could completely support himself.

Mr. Zhou is paralyzed in bed. Does this have anything to do with him? He, he...

He really should calm down. After all, it's not easy to have to rely on others to help him go to the toilet or wipe himself.

Forget it, he decided to stay nearby and keep an eye on Han Zeyu's movements.

At the critical moment, Fang Jun remained calm. He whispered four words: "Besiege Wei to save Zhao."

Ma Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Ye Qi. Civil servants are still very cunning!

Han Zeyu felt that after this battle, Captain Ma would definitely cause trouble for him.

"My dear, what should we do?

Su Shien really wanted to roll his eyes. Now he remembered "us", what were you doing before?

"How about you do me a favor and take the initiative to talk to Captain Ma?"

Han Zeyu blinked and said, "You bastard! Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately!"

"You should come forward. You men have more common topics to talk about."

Su Shien...did he remember that he was a little brother at this time?

That’s right, every time this happens, his brother Yu turns into Su Han.

Han Zeyu took two steps back and said seriously, "Husband, I'm going to take a look around the workshop. I'll be back soon."

Han Zeyu ran away without looking back. Su Shien stretched out his hand to Erkang in vain, but it was of no use.

He took a deep breath, turned around, and met Ma Zhao's rather sympathetic gaze.

We are all wanderers in this world, there is no need to hurt each other, let’s go in and chat!

Ma Zhao was overjoyed. This was a good start, except that there were two annoying things that didn't show any sense at all.
