Chapter two hundred and fourteen: real body

As soon as he heard that the governor of Luzhou Xiao Wencheng was about to come to Xingyuan County.

Cui He, the head of the Cui family, and Mo Sheng, the governor of Ganping Prefecture, couldn't help but feel energetic.

Cui He believes that he has some friendship with Xiao Wencheng, and Mo Sheng was completely promoted by Xiao Wencheng. He is particularly clear about Xiao Wencheng's character.

Xiao Wencheng is a man of weakness and does not like others to participate in Luzhou affairs. In Mo Sheng's understanding, he has never supported the new policy much.

"Yan Zhao, if you release me at this time, I will not care about you. If Master Xiao comes, do you think he will listen to your one-sided words?" Mo Sheng said with his chest straight.

Hearing this, Zhao Yan couldn't help but feel a little happy.

The governor of Luzhou, Xiao Wencheng, came to Xingyuan County because he received an order from the Secretariat. Although Xiao Wencheng knew Zhao Yan, he did not know that the current Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was in Xingyuan County.

Could it be that Xiao Wencheng and the Cui family are also birds of a feather?

Zhao Yan suddenly became interested. If Xiao Wencheng was also a foolish official, he would not mind changing the governor of Luzhou.

"What do you mean is that Master Xiao will definitely listen to you?"

Mo Sheng raised his chin and said, "That's natural. You are a taboo. What Magistrate Xiao hates the most is that you, the Beijing official, interferes in my Luzhou matter!"

"Don't think that Pan Wenyue is your teacher, you can be so arrogant. Magistrate Xiao doesn't even take your tricks!" Mo Sheng added.

At this time, Fan Tianlong, who was standing beside him, also spoke.

"Yan Zhao, my grandfather and Xiao Zhizhou are also old friends. If you let me go now, it would be fine. If you don't let me go, I will definitely want you to be nice. Unless you stay in Changdan City for the rest of your life and don't come out, I will definitely make you unable to move on the territory of the Great Zhou!"

Looking at the threats of these two people, Zhao Yan said in a plain tone: "Heiwa, open your mouth!"

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

Heiwa walked up to the two of them and slapped them three times.

Afterwards, Zhao Yan called Liu Shiqing to go to the back hall.

"Minister Liu, what do you think of Xiao Wencheng, the governor of Luzhou? Will he stand in the same position with the Cui family?" Zhao Yan asked.

Liu Shiqing showed an awkward smile: "The position of Xiaguan is too low. I have only seen Xiao Zhizhou from a distance and don't know much about him."

"Today, I will let you know well. At about dawn, Xiao Wencheng will come to Xingyuan County. The first thing he did was naturally to come to the county government to find you. At that time, you would sit in the court and tell him all the crimes of the Cui family and Mo Sheng, and ask him how to make a judgment, don't mention me first!"

"Ah? What if Xiao Zhizhou wants to protect these people?"

Zhao Yan let out a light breath and said, "If he dares to protect these people, you will order people to tie him up too. He comes to Xingyuan County at night, so he will naturally not be able to bring a few guards."

"I...I tied the magistrate? I...I dare not!" Liu Shiqing was so scared that his legs trembled. For him, the magistrate, the magistrate, was already a super big figure he had met. He thought Zhao Yan and Xiao Wencheng were very familiar with each other, but he didn't expect to know each other very much.

The governor of Luzhou is a third-rank official. If Liu Shiqing forcibly tied him up, once the latter settles the accounts, he may have to spend his next life in prison.

"What are you afraid of? I will support you in everything!" Zhao Yan said to him.

Liu Shiqing was frightened by Zhao Yan's aura, so he had to nod his head helplessly.

...

About an hour later, the sky showed white fish belly. The governor of Luzhou, Xiao Wencheng, a tall and thin goatee-bearded middle-aged man, finally arrived in Xingyuan County in a carriage and eight guards.

He received an edict from the Secretariat that the Cui family in Xingyuan was intending to resist the new policy, and ordered him to rush there overnight and deal with it seriously.

Xiao Jingye treated the officials below very harshly, and there were even swearing words in the edict. Xiao Wencheng did not dare to delay at all, so he rushed over.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Xingyuan County, a yamen runner was waiting there for a long time and greeted him towards the county government.

Xiao Wencheng looked puzzled. No one knew about his trip to Xingyuan County. How could the magistrate of Xingyuan County know about it?

He walked into the county government with doubts. Before he could ask, he saw several people tied up, kneeling under the lobby, and all of them were stuffed.

He also knew two of them, one was Cui He, the head of the Cui family, and the other was Mo Sheng, the governor of Ganping Prefecture.

When these people saw Xiao Wencheng, they became excited instantly, kept breaking free from the rope, and made a "whimper" sound from their mouths.

"Liu Shiqing, the magistrate of Xingyuan County, please see the magistrate!" Liu Shiqing bowed his hands without being humble and arrogant.

"County Liu, what's going on? Are you going to rebel?" Xiao Wencheng glared. He had never seen the magistrate under the prefect tie up his immediate superior.

Liu Shiqing took out a booklet and said, "You reported to the magistrate, Mo Sheng, the governor of Ganping Prefecture, and the Cui family, intending to fight against the new policy. In order to take into account the overall situation of the new policy, the subordinate officials had no choice but to arrest them."

Xiao Wencheng frowned, took the scroll and started to look carefully.

At this moment, Zhao Yan was behind the court.

"call!"

After reading the scroll, Xiao Wencheng first let out a long sigh, then looked at Liu Shiqing and said, "Minister Liu, although your approach is wrong, it is worthy of praise. These people actually want to gather the hearts of the people to fight against the new policy and sacrifice other people's lives at will. It's really damn!"

After saying that, he pulled out the rag from the hand of Mo Sheng, the governor of Ganping Prefecture, and said coldly: "Mo Sheng, thanks to this official, I am taking care of you. As an official of the court, you dare to resist the new policy. Have you been brave enough to be a bear heart? I told you that destroying the new policy is a rebellion!"

Mo Sheng looked confused. He remembered that Xiao Wencheng was still rebelling against the new policy a month ago, so why now he has become an absolute supporter of the new policy!

A month ago, Xiao Wencheng did oppose the New Deal, but since Xiao Jingye wrote him a long letter of 10,000 words, he has become an absolute supporter of the New Deal.

Mo Sheng's head turned very quickly and said quickly: "Master Xiao, don't listen to Liu Shiqing's nonsense. I, Mo Sheng, have never resisted the new policy. The one who really made a fortune by the slogan of the new policy was Yan Zhao, the New Policy Inspector hidden behind the yamen. He falsely accused my Cui family of resisting the new policy in order to accept bribes. At present, he has taken away 50,000 taels of silver, 150 acres of fertile land from the Cui family, and six shops! The boss of the Cui family can testify!"

"Yan Zhao, the New Policy Inspector, where is he?" Xiao Wencheng looked confused.

At this time, Zhao Yan walked out from behind and looked at Mo Sheng and said, "Mo Sheng, I just collected 20,000 taels of silver, 100 acres of fertile land and three shops. What are the rest of you who are greedy, right?"

Hearing this sentence, Mo Sheng was immediately overjoyed and said excitedly: "Master, you... have you heard that he admitted that he had embezzled and accepted bribes in the name of the new policy!"

When Xiao Wencheng saw Zhao Yan's face, he instantly knelt on the ground and shouted: "Long live my emperor!"
