The happy life of a prodigal

And, as far as they know.

At that time, His Royal Highness Kang Wang seemed to have arrived at Fangfu not for a while, but the assassin arrived at Fangfu.

Of course, they were all stopped.

For a while, all kinds of conjectures came out.

Some people said that the assassin was sent out by Marquis Xin'an, and the target was His Royal Highness Kang Wang.

Needless to say, the reason is that everyone knows that there is no confrontation between the two of them.

Of course, this is a minority.

Most still say...

This assassin was sent by His Royal Highness Kang Wang!

Chapter 699 Another Letter

Undoubtedly, His Royal Highness Kang Wang must have refuted it vigorously, and even sent the secret spy department, Dali Temple, and the Criminal Ministry to coordinate an investigation, with the purpose of finding out the instigator behind the assassin.

It's a pity that after such a long time, let alone an assassin, not a single instigator was found...

But there are still many people who believe in King Kang.

But more people still stick to their original views.

No matter what they do, Fang Xiu has an indifferent attitude.

Is it important whether the assassin was sent by King Kang?

It didn't matter at all to him.

The important thing is that Fang Xiu had already made a decision the moment the assassin appeared.

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard.

Fang Xiu turned his head to look, it was Bai Xiaochun.

Bai Xiaochun walked up to Fang Xiu, stood upright, saluted respectfully, then took out a letter and said, "Master, this is a letter from His Majesty."

"A letter from His Majesty?"

Fang Xiu was slightly taken aback, obviously he did not expect that the Emperor Chu would write a letter to himself in such a far place in the south of the Yangtze River.

I don't know what it is.

Fang Xiu showed hesitation on his face.

But no matter what, Emperor Chu's letter cannot be avoided.

After thinking about it, I still opened it and took a look.

Then......

"Do you still need to write a letter for such a small matter?"

Fang Xiu was very depressed.

Fortunately, he thought it was something important.

Turns out it was just because of the sweet potatoes.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Go and get the four treasures of my study."

"Yes, Master!"

Bai Xiaochun saluted respectfully.

Fang Xiu nodded.

After a while, Bai Xiaochun brought the Four Treasures of the Study.

Fang Xiu picked up the pen and started writing.

Finished writing soon, said: "Send it to His Majesty."

Bai Xiaochun nodded, picked up the letter, and was about to leave.

"Wait!"

Fang Xiu stopped him again.

Bai Xiaochun turned his head to look at Fang Xiu, with a puzzled expression on his face, he asked, "Young Master, what are your orders?"

Fang Xiu took out another letter from his bosom and handed it to him, waved his hand and said: "If you send this letter to the palace, you must hand it to Concubine Shu. Remember, don't let others see it."

"Yes, Master!"

Looking at the letter, Bai Xiaochun seemed to have thought of something, he was extremely shocked, but he suppressed the shock, stretched out his hand to take it, and said respectfully.

After speaking, he turned and left the yard.

For a moment, Fang Xiu was the only one left in the whole yard.

Fang Xiu sat on the reclining chair, looked at Bai Xiaochun's back, thought of something, and sighed leisurely.

I don't know whether the choice I made is right... or wrong.

Anyway, that's the end of the matter.

Take a step, look at a step!

............

It is far outside the city of Gusu, thousands of miles away from the capital.

Emperor Chu was still in the suburbs, looking at those sweet potatoes.

Not far away, a group of people rushed over.

"Who are you? It is forbidden to approach here!"

The guards stepped forward to stop those people.

One of them stood up, with a smile on his face, and said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty is the prefect of the Gusu Mansion. I want to meet His Majesty. Look, can it be convenient?"

Hearing this, the guard looked him up and down, with a look of hesitation on his face.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I'll go and report, you just wait here."

"Okay, okay!"

The magistrate might have really come running, and he looked very tired.

The guard shook his head, didn't say much, turned around and went to report.

After a while, he came back to look at the man and said, "Your Majesty said, you can go over."

"Okay, thank you."

When the prefect heard this, he laughed even more happily.

Hastily led the people to the front of Chu Huang.

"The magistrate of Gusu City... See Your Majesty!"

"My minister, Gusu City, acquaintance... See Your Majesty!"

"The minister Gusu City passed the judgment... See Your Majesty!"

A group of people knelt on the ground.

The Emperor Chu looked at them, his expression became a little strange, and he asked, "All of you are here, who is watching the yamen now?"

"This......"

The prefect obviously didn't expect His Majesty to ask this question, and was stunned for a while, not knowing what to say.

Emperor Chu looked at him, frowned, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, tell me, why do you want to see me?"

"This......"

Several people looked at each other, and said in unison: "I have been away from the capital for several years, and I haven't seen His Majesty for a long time. I miss you very much, so I heard that Your Majesty is here, so I want to see you... ..."

"I'm fine, what do you want to see?"

Chu Huang frowned and said coldly.

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay again, so choked that they didn't know what to say.

After a while, Emperor Chu said again: "I heard that when Marquis Xin'an planted sweet potatoes here, how many of you have been trying to stop them?"

After hearing this, several people looked at the sweet potatoes in the ground, how could they not understand what Emperor Chu meant by these words.

All of them knelt on the ground, put their heads on the ground, and said loudly: "Your servant is wronged!

Xin'an Hou planted this sweet potato, and the ministers have always supported it!

Among other things, these lands were sold to Marquis Xin'an by the ministers! "

"Do you really think I don't know anything?" Hearing these words, Emperor Chu's expression became a little cold, looking at those people, he said coldly: "The first time Marquis Xin'an sent people to Gusu City.

You obstructed it in every possible way. This field was bought with real money, but you have to take it back for no reason.

If it hadn't been for Linze Hou's suppression of the rebellion, you would have passed through two Jiangnan roads, this piece of land, you wouldn't have let it go, would you?

I didn't care about this matter, not because you did the right thing, let alone because I support you.

It's just because Marquis Xin'an is generous, he didn't mention this matter to me.

The harvest of Gusu Mansion in the past two years is not bad.

I didn't care about you, but you guys still want to claim credit from me now?

To be honest, I have never seen people as brazen as you! "

As soon as these words came out, those few people were all shocked.

At the same time, deep fear rose in my heart.

Your Majesty really knows everything?

For a moment, they all knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word, allowing His Majesty to criticize them.

After a while.

Seeing that Emperor Chu was silent, they all yelled in unison: "Your servant will die!"

Unexpectedly, this sentence made Emperor Chu angry again.

"Thousand death, ten thousand death... If I really let you all die, you will say again, begging Your Majesty to spare my life!

I have seen too much of your tricks!

I just have one word...

Do you know what's wrong? "

"I know I was wrong!"

Several people said in a hurry.

The Emperor Chu looked at them, snorted coldly, waved his hands and said, "Since I know I was wrong, there are still many sweet potatoes here, so take your hoes and help the farmers work!"

Chapter 700 Another Earl!

"This......"

Several people in the magistrate were dumbfounded when they heard this.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Chu glared at them and asked, "Why? Not happy?"

The magistrates dared not say that they were not happy, they hurriedly bowed: "I will obey the order!"

Then, each with a hoe, followed the farmers and dug up the sweet potatoes.

Those farmers looked at the magistrate and were nervous at first, but when they saw that they were also holding hoes and digging sweet potatoes, they all smiled.

It turns out that in their eyes, the incomparably noble magistrate is like an ant on the side of the road to His Majesty.

His Majesty asked them to pick up hoes, but they dared not say anything.
