Fengxian County Government Office.
Xiao Yunze was arranging people to pack up the grain and crops sent by the people. He wanted to transport part of them to the capital.
In the afternoon, as soon as I arrived at the abandoned clinic, I met Xuanwu who had returned from the capital.
Xuanwu said that the emperor had issued an imperial edict, and the officials who came to announce the edict were already waiting in the yamen.
As Zhuque looked a little anxious, Xiao Yunze went to the pharmacy first. Not seeing Miss Song, he left a note and returned to the county government office.
This imperial edict mainly contains three contents.
First, Zhao Bicheng was transferred to Huai County to serve as the county magistrate.
Second, the county magistrate of Feng County was appointed by Xiao Yunze himself.
Third, he ordered Xiao Yunze to reflect seriously and return to Beijing as soon as possible.
After reading the imperial edict, the official left on the pretext of going to a nearby prefecture or county to carry out business.
After receiving this imperial edict, Xiao Yunze felt relieved.
As the Emperor of Daqing, my father is in charge of the entire country and is naturally well aware of the distribution of power in the court.
Although my father hated factional strife, as long as it was not too excessive, he would turn a blind eye most of the time.
But now, he knew clearly that the Suizhou provincial capital was close to the third brother, but he openly sent Zhao Bicheng to Huai County to serve as the county magistrate.
You know, everyone in the capital knows that Zhao Bicheng, the top scorer in the imperial examination last year, not only received a high-ranking official position after the announcement of the results, but also became a staff member of the Prince's Mansion and a man of Xiao Yunze.
Now he even appoints the county magistrate of Feng County personally.
Since he was deposed as the crown prince, the third brother's ambition has grown.
The emperor's decree today clearly intends to give him the opportunity to compete with the third prince.
Presumably, when the water conservancy project here is completed, that will be the day he returns to the Eastern Palace.
A few days ago, inside the palace.
Xuanwu was at least one step ahead of the people from the Inspectorate and presented the tribute first.
Emperor Xiao Qing of Daqing had always been very suspicious. When he first saw the memorial from his ninth son, he did not believe that there really were gods in this world. He planned to wait until the people from the Inspectorate returned to Beijing before making a decision.
However, before the people from the Inspectorate arrived, the tribute sent by the ninth son arrived first.
There are food and ornaments, and each item comes with a note explaining its use.
In the imperial study, Xiao Qing looked at the pile of strange objects in front of him, his heart filled with turmoil, but due to the royal majesty, he suppressed it and kept a calm face.
However, Tai Sheng, the housekeeper who was serving on the side, almost popped his eyes out!
Xiao Qing turned his eyes away from the pile of tributes and said, "Xuanwu, how many years have you followed Lao Jiu?"
"Your Majesty, I have been by the Ninth Prince's side since he was a child, which is seventeen years now."
Xiao Qing nodded. "Seventeen years is not a short time. I know Lao Jiu's character. He would never deceive me. Tell me everything that happened in Feng County."
From Xuanwu's narration, Xiao Qing had a general understanding of what happened in Feng County, but he still had doubts about the matter of the goddess.
After ordering Xuanwu to wait outside the hall, Xiao Qing stood up and walked over to the tribute. He picked up a package of food and tore it open according to the instructions on the paper. Just as he was about to eat, he smelled a strange smell and stopped himself. He turned around and handed it to Tai Sheng, "I allow you to try it."
Taiqing is able to sit in the position of general manager, so he is naturally not a stupid person.
At this time, he took the food handed to him by the emperor, feeling very nervous, but he also knew that he could not escape this incident.
The emperor was so suspicious that he was even on high alert against his own son. He would depose the prince at the first sign of trouble. How could he possibly eat the tribute he offered to him?
Tai Sheng suppressed his inner fear, closed his eyes, and bit down with a fearless look on his face!
The next moment, I felt a sharp pain in my mouth and an unknown feeling in my throat, which was very strange.
Tai Sheng wanted to vomit but didn't dare to. He thought that his career as the housekeeper was over, so he fell straight down!
Seeing this, Xiao Qing, who was standing by, took two steps back, his doubts growing.
Could it be that Lao Jiu really wants to rebel?
Tai Sheng on the ground suddenly opened his eyes, touched his neck with his hands, and slapped his lips a few times.
The pain has dissipated a lot!
There was another taste in my mouth, even...
I even want to taste that food again!
Tai Sheng jumped up and said, "Your Majesty! This is delicious!"
Seeing that Taisheng was fine, Xiao Qing's suspicion dissipated a lot, and he didn't blame him for making such a scene when he was fine.
Xiao Qing took a bag of identical food, looked at it for a while, and found that he couldn't understand anything on it. There was only the name of the thing written on the note: Spicy Dried Fish.
Xiao Qing tore open the ** and ate it carefully.
After a while, Xiao Qing sat in front of the table, with a pile of empty food bags and various exquisite and rare items at his hands.
And he was admiring his appearance in the mirror.
Xiao Qing faced the mirror, but spoke to Tai Sheng, "How could there be a mirror in this world that can reflect a person so clearly! This is the first time I've seen myself so clearly."
Xiao Qing was overjoyed looking in the mirror, feeling that as the ruler of a country, he was still quite majestic.
This discovery made him very satisfied.
Daqing is undoubtedly the most powerful country today. How can neighboring countries have something that even Daqing does not have?
There really is a goddess in this world!
Xiao Qing narrowed his eyes slightly. Could it be that... it could also help him live forever?
Thinking of this, Xiao Qing didn't even wait for the people from the Inspectorate to report back. He immediately summoned Xuanwu in and wrote the imperial edict in front of Xuanwu.
"I know that those who accuse Lao Jiu of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country are all nonsense. Today, you will accompany Doctor Li, who is going to provide disaster relief, to take the imperial edict with you and tell Lao Jiu to deal with those matters as soon as possible. Regarding the matter of the goddess, we will discuss it in detail when he returns to the capital."
