Donggong Ce [Rebirth]

Chapter 19 The first knife

In the early morning of April [-]st, Shuofang County Sheriff woke up surrounded by two beautiful concubines.

The warm and fragrant nephrite is the bliss of the world.He moved his fat body with a contented smile on his dark face.

Probe with your fingers, it is the concubine's soft body.

Just a little chilly.

The county guard had a whim, and felt that he had to pretend to be a caring gentleman.Then he pulled up a corner of the quilt and covered the concubine on the right.

The quilt was lifted up, and the eyes moved up, and it was the face of the woman who died of panic.

He froze for a moment, the fat on his face began to tremble violently, twisting into a strange expression.Before he could yell, a person hung upside down from the roof, covered his mouth and nose, and dragged him out of bed.

Qin Jiu looked at him with interest, first stuffed the sock into his mouth, and then carefully looked at his face.

"It's not easy to do, the face is too strong, it's not good to pretend..."

Hearing his muttering, the sheriff was so frightened that he urinated on the spot.Qin Jiu smelled the strange smell and took two steps back in disgust.

"Hey, my lord actually asked me to do this kind of work. I really only hear the newcomers laugh, but the old ones cry." Qin Jiu shook his head, "If you don't let Mr. Xie take me to play this time, I will quit the job... ..."

His slender fingers stuck out of his sleeves, holding a knife as thin as a willow leaf.

After a while, a cluster of flames ignited in the sheriff's room.

-

In the early morning of April [-]rd, it is advisable to offer sacrifices, pray for blessings, and travel, and do not take other things.

Shuofang County is located in Youji.Early in the morning, all officials, big and small, were blasted out to welcome the new king of Yan.

A row of people stood sparsely at the gate of the city, and everyone met their eyes, but they didn't take King Yan seriously.

The kings of Yan who were appointed in the previous dynasties all died of aggrieved lives with them, and at most they came to greet them on New Years and festivals.The sky is high and the emperor is far away. It is better to please the county guard and Shuofang army to please the king of Yan.

It's just that their sheriff has been a little strange these two days.

First, there was water in the Sheriff's Mansion, causing a commotion.The county sheriff, who has been obsessed with beauty all year round, was frightened and lay down in the mansion for two days.

When the adult showed up again, he looked sickly. He even postponed several banquets, and he didn't even enter the brothel that he usually likes to go to.

What a ghost.

The officials thought so.

It is said that the governor of the county is attached to the Eighth Prince in the court.There are people in the court who are good at doing things, and the same is true for promotion.The sheriff looked like this, and everyone was very anxious.

This is going to be frightened out of my soul, how can I match what I like in the future?

The county sheriff stood listlessly on the main seat, but when everyone was not paying attention, he kept peeking at the official road in the distance.

Finally, the official road from afar came with the king of Yan driving the guard of honor.The officials all solemnly looked down, at least making a show.

When they received the news from King Feng Yan before, they made a plan.

Anyway, recent droughts and epidemics in Yan land have continued. If the king of Yan wants to say that they are not paying attention, they can still beat them back, saying that the king of Yan does not take the people seriously.

The car stopped, and the officials cheered up, ready to sing.

However, after waiting for a long time, only one person and one rider came up from the side of the car, walked past the guard of honor, and stood in front of them.

Is a thin boy.

Dressed in Tsing Yi, with a bamboo flute tied at the waist, and handsome features, one can tell at a glance that he is a child of an aristocratic family.

King Yan left the capital on the first day of April, and some news had already spread to Yan.It is said that the king of Yan took Xie's eldest son away and brought him to Yan to serve as his staff.Isn't it the one in front of you?

As soon as Xie Gui stepped forward, he saw some officials showing disdain.

It stands to reason that his background is enough to curry favor with Yan officials.However, he is now an aide of King Yan, and the officials want to avoid him even more.

Xie Gui rode on the horse, the officials kept their mouths tightly shut, neither of them moved.

What they heard was that Xie Gui refused to obey King Yan and was forced to follow because of the imperial decree.They want to see how such a young boy can get benefits from them.

Shouldn't he be punished by the king of Yan after he failed to win?

In April, the land of Yan was still cold, and the wind made Xie Gui's robe rustle.

The Qingjuan boy was riding a tall horse, his brows were slightly raised, trying to relax.

The first person who noticed something was wrong was the little official who was closest to the guard of honor.

He usually only works as a clerk in the government, and his position is humble, so he is the closest to the guard of honor.After standing for a long time, he felt a little dizzy, couldn't use his legs, and even the sunlight was dazzling.

what happened?

The atmosphere is subtle, and one hair can move the whole body.He couldn't hold it any longer, and with a plop, he knelt on the ground.

This time, it seemed that the threads of all the officials were pulled.Immediately afterwards, people knelt on the ground one after another, and there was a plop.Most of their expressions were surprised and puzzled, and some suddenly realized.

All the officials knelt down, and only the sheriff was left standing.They cast their eyes one after another, hoping that the county magistrate will give them the honor of the officials in Yandi.

Unexpectedly, the sheriff moved his fat body, reluctantly stepped forward, made a big salute, and paid homage to King Yan.

-

King Yan's Mansion fell in Youji City, because it had no owner for a long time, so it was used by the county guard as his own garden.

Now that the rightful lord has come, the sheriff unexpectedly did not fight, but voluntarily backed down.

Some remote houses were handed over to the accompanying officials to live temporarily, and the residences of Feng Zhang and Xie Gui were handed over to Tiangang Guards disguised as bodyguards.

This reasoning lasted until noon, and it was already dinner time when I cleaned up.Feng Zhang first ordered people to make dim sum that is fashionable in the capital, while enjoying dinner leisurely, waiting for Xie Gui to come back.

Halfway through a bowl of porridge, a blue shadow came in from a distance.Feng Zhang had just swallowed a mouthful, and the pungent fragrance rushed towards his face, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Does Yandi's food suit your appetite?"

Feng Zhang asked seemingly unintentionally.Xie Gui glanced at him, "If you can eat in that kind of place, you have already died a thousand or eight hundred times."

During the day, Xie Gui had just given King Yan a disarm, but when Xie Gui went to invite King Yan to drive him, he was hit on the forehead by King Yan's book, and was scolded in public, telling him to get out of the way.

This play was well acted, and Xie Gui was forced to come here.

So as soon as King Yan settled down in the palace, someone sneaked up to Xie Gui's side and invited him to the brothel for a talk.

After solving Xie Gui's knife, is King Yan still a problem?

He choked a little, and teased: "That's right, the taste is not good. The king of Japan asked Pomegranate to pick two at Xunfang Path..."

Immediately, Xie Gui received two slashes.

Xie Gui was wary and dealt with everyone, he was already tired and hungry.Feng Zhang put down the bowl and chopsticks, gave a little signal, and he sat down to eat immediately.

The Xie family has strict upbringing, even though Xie Gui has been away for many years, the habits of the children of the aristocratic family are still maintained.The meal was so turbulent that there was not even the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding.

After the meal was settled, Xie Gui finally managed to catch his breath, and in a blink of an eye, he found Feng Zhang looking at him, frowning: "What are you looking at, Your Highness?"

Feng Zhang felt that his temper that exploded at the first touch was very interesting, so he couldn't help teasing a few more words: "Look at your eye circles, did you rob your house last night?"

Xie Gui hesitated, feeling that the bracelet in his arms was slightly hot.

The black bracelet given by Wei Chu is an important token of Tianyi Society.

Knowing in advance that there was severe drought and disease in Yandi, he sent a letter to Tianyi Society to transport grain and medicinal herbs to Yandi.

Some people don't take people's lives seriously, and there are many people who get sick and get rich.With his sideways intervention, he can not only save the common people from suffering, but also give Tianyi Society a higher prestige.

What's more, counting the time, it is almost time for the southeast salt and iron case.He has to try to see if the people from Tianyi Club are good at it.

On the way, he had to discuss the management of Yandi with Feng Zhang, and he was also busy with the Tianyi Society. Xie Gui had exhausted his thoughts and was reaching his limit.

Feng Zhang didn't ask further questions, but instead talked about Yandi.

He knocked on the edge of the table, "The land is barren along the way, and the people are scattered. It's unbearable to look at. These moths are almost eating up the land of Yan."

Xie Gui wiped the corner of his mouth lightly, and said flatly: "Your Highness, the sky is high and the emperor is far away."

This is to remind him that the peaceful and prosperous world seen in the capital does not mean that it is the same in the whole world.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, everyone is cautious in their words and deeds.If you are blinded by the grand occasion of the capital, the collapse of the building is just around the corner.

Feng Zhang sighed: "Xie Gui, Xie Gui, you are really young and mature... If you were a Taifu, you might not say that."

Xie Gui sneered, "Naturally. The Taifu, who is well-versed in poetry and books, can't use poison on the lower officials."

He was too lazy to waste time on the officials of Yan, Feng Zhang sent Qin Jiu to replace the county guard, and he poisoned the officials when they greeted King Yan.

The antidote was mixed with rice in advance for everyone in the party to eat.When the two sides met, the poisonous powder scattered with the wind, how could anyone not be tricked?

Under the watchful eyes of all the officials, big and small, they knelt on the ground, and it was hard to get back this face.When they saw King Yan in the future, they were a head shorter in imposing manner.

What's more, the "Junshou" are all respectful to King Yan, how dare they say no to Feng Zhang?

Feng Zhang felt a little helpless this time, "What has Mr. Han taught you these four years?"

Xie Gui smiled, "Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

Feng Zhang was speechless.Mr. Han, who was drinking in Nanshan Academy, sneezed several times for no reason.

The sky of Yandi is dark blue, and the sunset glow is like blood.Tiangangwei came to report that Xie Gui's yard had been tidied up.

He was alone, and he didn't bring anything except the kit, the golden knife and personal items, so he got up directly, planning to go back and go to sleep.

"Thank you."

Xie Guihuan was not used to him calling himself that, and turned around in surprise.

"You don't have anything to hide from me, do you?"

Xie Gui pondered for a while, except for the matter of Tianyi Society, he was not sure if Feng Zhang had noticed it, and there was really nothing else.He shook his head sincerely.

Unexpectedly, Feng Zhang actually smiled: "Unfortunately, this king has something to hide from you."

Xie Gui was surprised.

Feng Zhang smiled, but suddenly his body trembled, a few strands of black blood overflowed from the corner of his lips, he closed his eyes, and immediately fell to the ground.

"...Your Highness!"

Xie Gui turned pale with shock, lost sleepiness in an instant, and hurried forward.The Tiangang Guard who reported the letter earlier hadn't gone far, when he heard Xie Gui's call, he hurried over and was also shocked when he saw it.

There was an uproar in the palace immediately, and Guiyi heard the sound, and immediately asked the rest of the Tiangang guards to bring the doctor.

The two helped Fengzhang to the bed, and Guiyi said that Fengzhang must have suffered from poison, and went to get the medicine first.Xie Guishou stood by Feng Zhang's side, unconsciously clutching his sleeves tightly.

The atmosphere in the room was like a taut bowstring, Xie Gui's mind went blank, but Feng Zhang's fingers were suddenly pulled.

A look is fleeting.Xie Gui heard the string song and knew the elegant meaning, he took a few breaths before he calmed down.

...Okay, great, I wanted to use the sudden poison attack bait, but I didn't even say hello to him!

There was the sound of the doctor's hurried footsteps outside, before the doctor came in, Xie Gui sneered and gave him a hard twist on his arm.
