Chapter Three Hundred and Fortieth: The Governor of Shuntian
Zhou Heng smiled, then stopped his smile and looked at Duke Wei seriously.
"If law enforcement officials want to favor personal gain, how can this be tolerated by national laws? As for the prefect of Shuntian, I think it is more appropriate for Lord Zhang Fuling to sit up."
Duke Wei was stunned, stood up and stared at Zhou Heng up and down to look him. After a long time, he suppressed his excitement, sat down again and picked up the wine cup and drank it all.
"The candidate for Shuntian Prefecture is not something you can change with just one word. It's simply a slander!"
Seeing that Duke Wei was a little excited, his fingers were already trembling, and his face was not very good. He grabbed Duke Wei's wrist. Before he could have had an attack, he had already let go and returned to his seat, took out a bottle of quick-acting heart-saving pills from his arms and poured out eight pills.
"Donald Wei will take this medicine under his tongue first. Don't be excited. Who said he wants to arrange this? I don't dare to use my courage. It's just Zonglan Jingcheng, the most suitable candidate for this position, seems to be Lord Zhang Fuling, and others really don't have this ability."
Duke Wei glanced at Zhou Heng. This time he did not insist on stubbornly, and opened his mouth to put the medicine into his mouth. After a while, Duke Wei's face improved a lot. Such Zhou Heng really made people unable to say anything blamed.
"Did you ask me to recommend Zhang Fuling?"
Zhou Heng shook his head, "The emperor is meticulous today, so how can he be appointed by others? Didn't you also strongly recommend Zhu Xiaochang to inherit the position of prince back then, but what's the result?"
Duke Wei's face darkened, but when he thought about it carefully, what Zhou Heng said was reasonable. Since there was no need to recommend it himself, what did Zhou Heng mean to come to the mansion to say these?
"Then what do you mean?"
Zhou Heng approached Duke Wei and once again showed a harmless smile on his face.
"What should I do? Of course, I will arrange it. Today I will explain this to Duke Wei. I just want to tell you that if the emperor summons him and asks about this case, you will directly say that the emperor will rule the emperor. If you ask the prefect of Shuntian, you will not think about this. Just say this."
Duke Wei looked in disbelief, "It's that simple?"
“It’s that simple.”
After Zhou Heng finished speaking, he poured a cup of wine for Duke Wei, and he also poured one himself. He picked up the cup and raised it to Duke Wei. The two of them slapped the cups and drank it all in one go.
Duke Wei exhaled a sip of spicy alcohol and his mind was running rapidly. Although he was a military general, he was definitely not a fool to be able to be a Duke.
After connecting everything today with the situation in the court, he stared at Zhou Heng's eyes in more horror and said slowly.
"You are hopeful. If things get big, Chen Wenchi will naturally be held accountable. Then he will be free to come out of the position of the prefect of Shuntian, and the prince and the third prince will fight for this position.
After all, the party struggle has reached a time of fierce development, and in order to balance, the emperor naturally chose court officials who did not take sides to take office. Among these people, Zhang Fuling is the only one who can truly serve as the prefect, but what can you get?"
Zhou Heng blinked, and this question was simply a soul-searching question.
"Do you believe me if I have no desires or requests?"
Duke Wei shook his head, "Don't believe it."
"Okay, if you don't believe it, then just treat it as me to avenge the prince. He was drugged by Wen since childhood. He wanted to raise the prince all the way, assassinated or murdered many times. Although there is no complete evidence, it is an indisputable fact. Since no one seeks justice for the prince, then we will use the same way to treat the other person and let them taste their own evil consequences."
Duke Wei was a little anxious and approached.
"But Zhu Xiaochang is still a child?"
Zhou Heng smiled, "Child? Apart from his low seniority, it seems that he is more mature than the prince. Dongmei is pregnant with two baby boys. She was the first to have a maid Chenghuan. This is what the child can do last summer?
There is something that Duke Wei didn't know about. At the Prince's Mansion Poetry Conference, he deliberately tripped the emperor's Changsun. The prince was afraid that the emperor's Changsun's head would hit the stone table, so he quickly pushed the person away. The people who accompanied him turned black and white, saying that Zhu Yunmo deliberately pushed the emperor's Changsun. Is this the child's doing?
Then, he colluded with the emperor's eldest grandson and deliberately threw the prince's actions to the hands of the prince, and he did this time. Why is this? Isn't it just to let the world see the literary talent of his child prodigy, and the unbearableness of this stupid second uncle? These are the things that children do?
If you say that blood is close, the prince is closer to you, and the prince is only seventeen years old, so don’t use him as a young child to shirk responsibility. You have to bear the right and wrong yourself, otherwise you will make bigger mistakes in the future.”
Duke Wei was not angry anymore. Even though Zhou Heng's tone made him feel uncomfortable, he could not refute such a remark.
Yes, Zhu Xiaochang was spoiled and raised in a crooked manner. Such a widowed mother was full of hatred and Zhu Yunmo took over her son's title. In such an environment, it is impossible for a man to be crooked.
The Duke of Wei nodded, "Okay, I know. Whether the emperor asked in the hall or asked alone when there was no one, I would say this."
Zhou Heng nodded with a smile, "Duke Wei is getting stronger. In fact, you can understand many things, but you just don't want to explore these things, nor do you want to reveal what is below."
Duke Wei sighed. Although Zhou Heng was right, he just wanted to beat him up and looked at the wine pot on the table. Duke Wei blinked and asked.
"I know, I try to avoid this when I mention it. By the way, you really don't have a name for this wine?"
Zhou Heng picked up peanuts and threw them into his mouth, with a positive expression on his face.
"That's natural. I just didn't find a suitable name. There are many alternative answers, but I didn't pick them out. Why don't the Duke of Wei check for me?"
Duke Wei waved his sleeves and said, "Tell me, what's the name?"
"drunkard!"
"Not good, unbearable."
"Baishan Erguotou?"
Duke Wei was too lazy to say more this time, so he raised his arm and waved it.
“North Mountain doesn’t sound nice.”
Zhou Heng took out a note and slapped it on the table.
"If it's OK, then it's the last name. Do you see if this one is successful?"
Duke Wei opened the note and only three words were written in it: "Wuliangye".
Duke Wei's eyes lit up instantly and he kept nodding.
"This name is good. It is brewed by five kinds of grains in Wuliangye. It sounds like you can smell the smell of various grains. Just choose this!"
Zhou Heng laughed. Not to mention that all drunks in the world like such vulgar names, they all like such vulgar names.
"Okay, since the name has been decided, Zhou Heng will say goodbye."
The piece of meat in the mouth of Duke Wei almost choked him, and he knocked hard on his chest, then asked:
"What are you anxious about? You haven't finished drinking yet?"
Zhou Heng stood up and saluted, "Thank you for the hospitality of Duke Wei. I'm here to ask for a name today. Since the name of the wine has been decided, I will naturally go back to Beishan to make a special bottle.
Leave the remaining wine for Duke Wei to drink, but your heart is always cramped and it is not suitable to drink a lot of alcohol. You always need to take care of your health, and your children and grandchildren need your protection. Zhou said goodbye."
Duke Wei smashed his mouth, even though it was a good thing, it sounded like a bad thing. He glanced at the wine pot on the table. There were four bottles of wine in this box, and he just drank one bottle, and only seven bottles were left.
"Hmph, don't say it's useless. I'll give me ten boxes of Wuliangye first. You don't have to ask for any bottles and packaging. Just send them to the big jar. Don't tell me anything you can't drink or something. I'm a rough man, how can I live without alcohol!"
"Oh, say goodbye!"
Zhou Heng shrank his neck, then quickly escaped after showing his salute. Duke Wei stomped his feet and saw that Zhou Heng was running fast, and suddenly he lost his rules.
After Zhou Heng came out, he dragged Boss Xue out of the Duke's Mansion.
It was not until I got into the car that I patted my chest with lingering fear.
Boss Xue picked up the curtain and looked at Zhou Heng. He didn't know what happened to him. Anyway, this old man was not easy to mess with.
“Where are we going?”
