Live as the emperor

Chapter 122 Fufa
"Mom, what happened?" the young girl asked.

Sun's face was anxious, and said: "I don't know, it must not be a good thing, Ruifang, you just hide for a while, if something really happens to me and your father, you are fine... the next door is Zhu County There is a master named Xiao He, who is an old friend of your father, if you are in doubt, you can go to him. Take this jade pendant, let’s go..."

Gong Ruifang wanted to say something more, but was pushed away by Mrs. Sun, who urged him thousands of times: "If I'm not wrong, it should be related to your father's private use of taxes and food to relieve disasters. If your father and I have a relationship Whatever happens, you must go to Master Xiao."

Sun pushed Gong Ruifang away, and finally said: "Although mother is a coward, she is not afraid when things happen. What your father did was just..."

She ran towards the gate while talking, and shouted loudly: "Come here."

Opening the vermilion door, Ba Zihu immediately entered, pushed Mrs. Sun away, glanced around, and went directly to Gong Changlong's study.

When they arrived at the study, the door to the study had been opened. Gong Changlong was sitting at the desk, holding a book in his hand and wearing a white sweatshirt that was already starched and stiff.

The soldiers lined up on both sides, and the torches illuminated the place brightly. Mustache waved his hand and said, "Gong Changlong, come out for me."

Gong Changlong put down his book and walked out of the study. Mrs. Sun greeted him and called out worriedly, "Master."

Seeing Gong Changlong, Bazihu ​​said loudly: "By the order of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment, Gong Changlong, the county magistrate of Qingxian County, will be stripped of his seventh-rank official position, and the whole family will be arrested and brought to justice."

Sun muttered to herself: "Sure enough, it really is a matter of taxation and grain. I have said long ago that you can't move it, you can't move it, so what if the people don't grow food? It's not our responsibility..."

Although a catastrophe was imminent, Gong Changlong was very calm, with no expression on his face.

"Can you let me have an argument with you?" He figured it out in his heart. The reason why this happened tonight must be because his booklet was not delivered, or someone tampered with it.Otherwise, I have already stated the stakes, and the emperor has an exquisite heart, how could he not know the stakes?Is the tax and food important, or the harvest in the coming year?Besides, how much tax and food can a county have?For hundreds of counties across the country, this ratio is very small, and it is impossible for the emperor to go to war because of this.

Therefore, Gong Changlong wanted to go to the palace to face the saint, and tell the emperor what he did and thought, and if the emperor insisted on doing so, then he would admit it.

"Miansheng?" Bazihu ​​snorted coldly and said, "You can't even see the county guard's face!"

He was about to order people to be arrested, but suddenly realized something was wrong, and said, "Gong Changlong, you have a family of three, and you should have a daughter. What about people? Let her out."

As a local official, it's not that Bazihu ​​has no business relationship with Gong Changlong. He naturally knows the situation of Gong Changlong's family clearly.

Before Gong Changlong could speak, Mrs. Sun came over and said, "My lord, what a coincidence. A few days ago, my daughter went back to her hometown in Anyang County to get married."

"Oh? What a coincidence." Mustache obviously didn't believe it. He had never heard of the news that Gong Changlong's daughter was going to get married, and he just ran back to get married in the past few days?is it possible?
The soldiers launched a search operation in the yard, but they did not see Gong Ruifang.When those officers and soldiers came back to report, Sun was secretly relieved, the daughter seemed to have escaped.

In this way, she felt relieved, as long as her daughter escaped, with Master Xiao's help, the Gong family would definitely be able to clear their grievances.

The mustache was very angry. The request from above was for Gong Changlong's family of three, but now they only have two, so he was naturally unconvinced.

"Be honest, where did your daughter go?" Ba Zihu stared at Gong Changlong closely, and the distance between the two was less than three feet.

Mrs. Sun glanced at Gong Changlong, and said, "She really went back to her hometown to get married. Back then, our two families were married by the belly..."

"Shut up, I'm asking Gong Changlong, do you have something to say?" Ba Zihu gave Sun a fierce look, Sun was startled, and took two steps back involuntarily.

Ba Zihu knew that Gong Changlong had always been upright and would not lie, so just ask him to know if Sun was lying.

Gong Changlong looked at the character Hu, and then said calmly: "The little girl went back to her hometown to get married."

"Okay." Bazihu ​​shouted, took a few steps back, and said, "Since you say so, then I will believe it."

He turned to the soldiers and said, "Tie them up and take them back. Remember, Gong Changlong's daughter, Gong Ruifang, is on the run. Go after them with all your strength."

After they left, a person came out from the yard, it was Gong Ruifang.

The candles in the study room were still on, but no one could be seen. The books on the desk were still open. She closed the books and cried, then took the book with her, blew out the candles, and ran away. out.

early morning.

Chen Guang was still standing at the same position as yesterday. When he went up to court just now, Zhou Ding told him that he should try not to speak if he could. Chen Guang remembered it and felt that there was nothing to say.Now, he and these ancients can be said to have "differences in Taoism, and do not conspire with each other", so there is really nothing to say.

After routinely shouting at court, Chen Ang said: "Just received a letter from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment that Gong Changlong and his wife, Sun, have been arrested. They also have a daughter, but they are still at large."

Chen Guang calculated it carefully. It's not a short distance from Qing County. How could he catch it so quickly?It's only been a few days, when did the news get to this point?Doesn't it mean that it takes a month to walk from south to north?

Chen Guang didn't quite understand.

Although today's early court has been eight days since the last time he said about Gong Changlong's misappropriation of tax and food.

"This Gong Changlong has finally obeyed the law. Congratulations."

"Yes, the law must be strict and the law must be obeyed. If Gong Changlong breaks the law, he will naturally be punished by the law and embezzle taxes and food without permission. Hmph, it's a capital crime."

"It's best to behead him to make an example of others. The children are distributed to the frontier, and all the servants are distributed along with them. As the saying goes, those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black. These people in their family must not be good people."

Everyone talked a lot, Chen Guang just shook his head and sighed, what crime did the servant girl suffer?These ministers, why do you feel that Gong Changlong has the same hatred of killing his father and taking his wife when he talks about this?They are a group of people who hang out in the imperial court. Whether they recognize such a county magistrate is still a question mark.

Chen Ang signaled everyone to be safe, and asked Chen Guang, "Prince, what do you think?"
