Chapter 172: Starting from the beginning

 Li Kuan was busy studying the Liu family's case with Ma Zhou, Yan Shu, and Li Linggui, so he couldn't care about Li Zhi and Li Ming, so he let the two brothers play in the camp, as long as they didn't go out.

But before the conversation was over, he asked about the smell of meat and the sound of laughter. Out of curiosity, Li Kuan got up and left the hall. When he saw the scene in the yard, he almost lost his temper!

Cheng Chubi and Shan Daozhen, two generals, hugged their arms and watched Dugu Dabao telling stories to the two young highnesses, and there were three roasted lambs on the shelf behind him!

Li Kuan came from a miserable background and has always taught his subordinates: The prosperity of the three generations is all without restraint of passion, and the decline of the three seasons is all with extravagance! There is a certain number of blessings for this person, and he should not be too extravagant. Only by being pure and having few desires can he always maintain peace.

.

But Dugu Dabao, a boy who has no acquaintance with Dugu Ancheng at all, is completely stupid. He even vividly told the Li Zhi brothers about the eunuchs of the previous dynasty, how he split the road of life and death with his hands, and cut off the roots of right and wrong with one sword.<

/p>

Fortunately, there are no eunuchs in this courtyard, otherwise his words would be remembered by those small-minded guys for a lifetime.

Cough! Li Kuan kowtowed, and General Cheng Dan immediately stepped forward to salute. They knew clearly that His Highness has always been frugal, and often said: Everyone in the world is proud of extravagance, but in my heart, frugality is the beauty. The horse Dugu Dabao is

I'm afraid the fart hit the horse's leg.

"Your Highness, all the grass in this poor place in Caozhou has been eaten up, and the sheep have no food to eat. I went to three houses and got these three fat sheep to beat the teeth of your Highness as a sacrifice!"

Seeing Dugu Dabao offering his treasure, Li Kuan said solemnly: "Did you use my hundred horses to find sheep?"

These three sheep are nothing in ordinary times. But nowadays, in Caozhou, they are rare things. Looking at Li Zhi, Li Ming was so harsh that he shed tears, and you know that Dugu Dabao has very good intentions.

But Li Kuan doesn't accept this trick. Dugu Dabao's errands are not for food. If he fails to do his errands and is prevaricating, it goes without saying that Baiqi's family will take care of it.

Dugu Dabao smiled coquettishly and said pitifully: "Your Highness, I dare to take a bite, so I brought it to honor you."

While talking, he took out a notebook from his sleeve and handed it to him respectfully. Li Kuan also glanced at it, and then patted Dugu Dabao on the head with the notebook.

"Okay, you've passed the test!" As he spoke, he raised his book to Ma Zhouchen again: "Let's go in and talk, and we'll leave this place to them."

Although Dugu Dabao is a bastard, he is quite good at stealing holes and sneaking around in the streets. He dares not go anywhere, and he can touch even the most shady things.

Let’s just talk about this. In order to compete for the title of grain chief, the head of the Zhao family, Zhao Shu, secretly sent people to threaten the participating families, coerced and lured, kidnapped and extorted, and used all possible means.

Even Linglong Pavilion, who was so attentive to Li Kuan, could not escape his "care"! Fang Xi pushed Liu Sanniang to the banquet, probably for this reason.

In another half month, it will be the official day to choose the grain leader. With the power of the Zhao family, the time left is enough for him to deal with threatening opponents.

If he is allowed to continue like this, wouldn't the dispute over grain chief become the talking point of the Zhao family just like in the past?

That goes against what Li Kuan and Yan Shu have planned this year! Let’s use the Liu family’s case as a reason to expose all the crimes committed by the Zhao family and arrest those who deserve it!

In this way, it not only expresses the attitude of the government, but also gives a "boost in the arms" to those who are interested in fighting.

In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he also needs to support a strong opponent for the Zhao family. Since Fang Xi of Linglong Pavilion has made it so obvious and is so courageous, then he should support her.

When the matter reached this point, Li Kuan felt that there was no need to cover it up. Li Wenzhen had already brought him back with his oracle. The next stage of the drama would depend on Yan Shu's Qi-nurturing skills.

"The teacher once told me that living in a temple is extremely dangerous, and being cautious in your words and deeds is fundamental."

"Yan Shijun, you must also learn to pretend like this. By the way, tell Zhao Liang that the Tang Dynasty has a system. If relatives commit crimes, all officials will avoid them!"

The King of Chu's words reached this point, which meant that the matter was irreversible. Although it was a bit too hasty, Yan Shu still accepted the order.

Ma Zhou was also a little worried, and specifically told Yan Shu: "Master Yan, you old horse needs to know the way!"

Of course Yan Shu woke up, nodded, stood up and left, returned to the main hall of the government office, and summoned all the officials from the governor's office.

"I have just returned from the imperial mission. The officials and people in Caozhou are more capable than me, the governor."

"The complaint was brought before the King of Chu, and I was so embarrassed that I couldn't even hold the bowl!"

"Okay! Since no one cares about my old face, then I have nothing to worry about!"

From now on, all judicial cases in Caozhou will be directly heard by the governor's office. No one can interfere with all criminal files without his handwriting.

In addition, notices were posted that all people with grievances could go to the governor's office without notification and explain their grievances to officials in detail. Yan Shu would try them one by one.

The officials looked at each other in disbelief at the sudden change, but since it was the intention of traveling to the palace and there was an order from the governor, they naturally respected it.

But the most unlucky one is naturally Zhao Liang, who joins the judicial army, because his brother-in-law not only angered his immediate boss, but also offended the King of Chu. The gain outweighs the loss!

Therefore, everyone looked at him with sympathy. Even if the Zhao family had the background of King Huo, he would probably end up serving as a judicial officer in the army.

However, Zhao Liang also knew that the main hall was not a place for talking, let alone showing any expression, so that the governor and his colleagues could see something on his face.

He just stood silently until the discussion was over, and then went to the back hall to ask for an audience.

Now that the matter of his brother-in-law Dong Shu has been cleared up, he must abandon his chariot to protect his commander. A strong man must cut off his wrist. He must first show his impartial attitude and keep his official position.

At the same time, he also asked the governor to give him a chance to annihilate his relatives for justice. He would personally lead the officers to capture Dong Shu and bring him to justice.

Yan Shu also encouraged Zhao Liang first. Of course it was good to have this attitude. Then he said with embarrassment about the court's system. Zhao Liang should avoid it. It seemed inappropriate to come out to handle the case.

Alas, Yan Shu sighed and said with emotion: "Since the King of Chu came, I know that I am responsible for the relationship, and I am always trembling with fear. I don't dare to make any mistakes, and I serve him carefully."

"I can't help it. I can't compare with someone like you who is related to the royal family. I don't dare to be careless!"

They are all smart people, so there is no need to speak too clearly. Zhao Liang understood clearly, and Governor Yan asked him to intercede with King Huo.

Yes, no matter how domineering the King of Chu is, he has to buy into his uncle's favor! After thanking the governor, Zhao Liang bowed and stepped back.
