Chapter 143
That night, an argument broke out in the Hall of Yangxin.
A little messy.
But, nothing happened.
However, Concubine Hu was urinated on the spot by Chen Xiao's electric baton.
I don’t know how this matter has been heard by many people in the harem. For a moment, Concubine Hu became a joke.
After all, the emperor loved his daughter and did not treat Chen Xiao.
After someone sent Concubine Hu away, Long Jiuling was asked to go out first.
The emperor and Chen Xiao chatted alone for a while.
In the Palace of Health, the emperor looked at Chen Xiao and said, "I know, you are indeed right. I wanted to give Concubine Hu a face and beat you through the motions. Unexpectedly, Concubine Hu was so embarrassed..."
Chen Xiao smiled but said nothing, and the emperor continued, "Don't rush to go to the position of the Ministry of Revenue. This time, you kill the royal relatives without authorization. I will give you an eighth-rank official. You go to your hometown Qingyang County and become a county magistrate."
"Your Majesty, are you asking me to go home and hide for a while?" Chen Xiao asked with a smile.
The emperor glanced at Chen Xiao in surprise and said, "It's good that you know!"
Then he continued: "You killed not only Concubine Hu's father, but also royal relatives. How many royal relatives are there? They all have noble status and high status, so they are called nobles.
It has always been a transcendent force under the imperial power. Now, if you kill a royal relative, you will undoubtedly provoke a group of royal relatives. If you destroy their honor, you will be destined to cause trouble for you!"
Chen Xiao nodded and understood this truth.
It’s like a group of privileged people that have one person’s privileges have been destroyed, and the other privileged people will definitely not be able to sit still and maintain their privileges.
"So, go back to Qingyang County to hide. After a while, I will come back to the Ministry of Revenue and serve as the head of the Ministry of Finance!" said the emperor.
Chen Xiao didn't care and said, "It depends on your Majesty's arrangement... In addition... I actually want to... ask me and Jiuer, what do you think?"
"Hmph, now you want to marry her? Dream! Unless you are a marquis and minister!" said the emperor.
"Okay, your Majesty don't worry!" Chen Xiao said confidently.
The emperor snorted: "Chen Xiao, be more at ease. There are some things you don't need to do."
Chen Xiao said: "I do things all depend on my heart!"
"Go down, go back to Qingyang County tomorrow!" The emperor was silent before he said.
Chen Xiao bowed and then left the Palace of Yangxin.
The emperor leaned on the chair and said, "It's still so sharp..."
"Your Majesty, this may not be a good thing..." The old eunuch spoke carefully.
The emperor said: "What do you know? It's not good to be too sharp. Besides, if he really wants to be with Jiuer, then I must hope that he will be a free person who will be rich and prosperous for the rest of his life."
"I understand. If Lord Chen is too sharp and offends too many people, he will inevitably be worried about the safety of the Ninth Princess because of too many enemies..." The old eunuch is not a fool.
The emperor sighed, rubbed his forehead, and whispered:
"I hope that Jiuer and her son-in-law will be free and happy all their lives, free and easy..."
"Yi Lao Nu, Lord Chen, it's not that he is not unlucky and happy..." said the old eunuch.
The emperor was speechless and silent.
On the other hand, Chen Xiao told Long Jiuling that he would go to Qingyang County to be the county magistrate. Long Jiuling said that she would go too. Chen Xiao was stunned and said that you can't go.
Long Jiuling suddenly collapsed.
After comforting for a while, Chen Xiao left the palace.
When he returned to Qingyang County, Chen Xiao understood that it was an emperor's protection for him.
Not only did he let him leave the imperial capital for the time being and avoid the limelight, but he also let Chen Xiao return to Qingyang County to avoid Hu Guixian's family, which was not good for Chen Xiao's parents.
So how could people say they could be emperors? They thought very comprehensively and demoted Chen Xiao, but Chen Xiao could not refute it.
The purpose of his move is to protect Chen Xiao.
However, in the eyes of others, this is not the case.
Others felt that the emperor was just punishing Chen Xiao, demoting Chen Xiao and putting it on the imperial capital, making everyone feel that Chen Xiao was not only impossible to become the son-in-law, but also his official fortune was ruined.
After all, the gap between going from a sixth-rank imperial judicial officer to an eighth-rank local official is too big.
For a moment, the people in the imperial capital who were unhappy with Chen Xiao were extremely happy.
Some young people who have ideas about the Ninth Princess applauded even more.
The next day, Chen Xiao told Fatty and the others about his life going back to Qingyang County, and told Fatty to take care of the shop well. In addition, he found Blackheads and Tiger Teeth, so that they could also be careful to deal with some things in the imperial capital.
Because Chen Xiao understood that once he left, the most ruthless restaurant and the other four sub-houses would definitely be in trouble.
After giving everything, Chen Xiao asked Qi Mo to raise pigs well. After a while, it might be a good day for piglets to come back.
After explaining everything, Chen Xiao prepared to set off and return to Qingyang County.
At this moment, a figure appeared...
Dragon Jiuling!
This girl was wearing an ordinary palace maid's dress outside the most ruthless restaurant, looking at Chen Xiao with a smile.
Chen Xiao was stunned at the time and walked up to him and said, "You... why did you leave the palace?"
"Hehe, I have some solutions, otherwise how do you think I got out last time?" Long Jiuling said with a smile.
The so-called method she said was to wear the clothes of the palace maid, take the princess' token, put on makeup, and say that she was going out to buy things for the princess, and then it was smooth all the way out.
Chen Xiao smiled and shook his head, saying, "You go back to Qingyang County with me?"
Long Jiuling said: "Yes, the palace is boring!"
"Okay, let's go!" Chen Xiao said, then helped Long Jiuling get into the car.
At the same time, several figures also appeared next to the carriage.
Chen Xiao looked over in confusion and found it was Zhou Banto and Zhao Banto.
"You two come to see me off, I'm so interested!" Chen Xiao smiled.
Zhou Bantou and Zhao Bantou said: "Sir, we are not here to send you off, we... plan to go with you."
"What?" Chen Xiao was stunned.
"Sir, aren't you going to Qingyang County to be the county magistrate? Let's go to Qingyang County to be the constable and soap clerk!" Zhou Bantou said.
Hearing this, Chen Xiao was a little moved to be honest.
He took a deep breath and said, "Isn't it good to be a troupe in the government office, especially the imperial capital office? He actually went with me to work as a constable?"
"Sir, we respect your character. Where you are, you can serve the people, play our role, and be fair, so we are willing to go with you." Zhou Bantou said.
Zhao Bantuo also said: "Yes, sir, we have all resigned from the Bantuo position. If you don't want us, we will lose our jobs!"
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Then ask the two to get out of the carriage, isn't that a big problem?"
Zhou Bantou and Zhao Bantou both laughed.
Chen Xiao and Long Jiuling got on the carriage, Zhou Bantou and Zhao Bantou sat in front and drove the carriage, and headed outside the imperial capital.
At this moment, a father slapped the table and kicked the stool with righteousness.
The commander of the Imperial Guard asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you want me to send someone to secretly protect the Ninth Princess..."
The emperor said angrily: "I don't want this daughter anymore, why don't you protect me? Get out!"
The commander of the Imperial Guard was scolded again, so he quickly shut up and prepared to withdraw.
However, as soon as he walked to the door, he heard the emperor scolding again:
"You really don't plan to send someone to protect me? You want to die!"
The commander of the Imperial Guard almost couldn't help but cry.
