In the days when I was dressed as the king of a subjugated country

Guo Xuanshi brought Gu Youzhen to Yu Guangle's residence.There are not many things here, and it is very clean, without the smell of urine in the eunuch's house.

Gu Youzhen jumped to Yu Guangle's bed in two or three steps, and shouted: "Yu Banban! Zhen'er is here to see you!"

Yu Guangle opened his eyes and said with a smile, "Your Highness, who combed this hair."

Gu Youzhen turned her head happily: "It's the father!"

Yu Guangle followed the good advice: "Very good, very good! Will Your Majesty comb your hair for His Royal Highness?"

Gu Youzhen nodded: "Last night, Zhen'er slept with her father!"

Guo Xuanshi stepped forward, looked at Yu Guangle, and said softly, "Are you feeling better?"

Yu Guangle smiled and said: "Yesterday His Majesty sent an imperial physician to treat the villain, and he is much better now. What happened yesterday? The villain fainted, and he didn't know how he was saved."

Guo Xuanshi's expression was complicated: "It was His Majesty who came back in time to save you."

Yu Guangle said: "Thanks to Your Majesty. But the villain still doesn't know how he offended Eunuch Cao."

"It doesn't matter how you offended him. The important thing is that if he wants to kill you, he can kill you without giving me any face. Yu Guangle, you have been with me for three years, but I can't protect you. Useless!"

"How can I blame you. It's Cao Cunlin who has a vicious heart."

But Guo Xuan smiled disapprovingly: "Yu Guangle, I always thought that as long as we stay in the harem and don't fight or grab, we can spend our lives safely, but I didn't know until yesterday that even if we don't do anything, we will still be in trouble." Come to the door. In this harem, only being favored by His Majesty can be immortal!"

Gu Li still didn't know how much Guo Xuanshi's mentality had changed. According to the agreement, he met Kang Qizong in the Dezheng Hall.

Gu Li asked: "After I left last night, what did Prime Minister Mu explain to you?"

"Prime Minister Mu said, pretend that Xia Yushi never came last night, so as not to cause further complications. As for the case, you can do whatever you want. Don't kill the prisoner, so as not to break the clue."

What happened last night, Prime Minister Mu really wanted to let Xia Xingcheng go. Unfortunately, Xia Xingcheng, as an eunuch, might be doomed.

Gu Li hummed, and asked, "Didn't you tell me about my appearance in the prison?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I have communicated with Fu Sicheng, and no one is allowed to gossip. As for other idlers in the government office, they only think of you as a relative from somewhere, and they will never think that you are the emperor."

Gu Li nodded.There was such a big commotion in the palace last night, it is impossible to hide his leaving the palace, but Prime Minister Mu certainly did not expect that the police of Shuntian Mansion would arrest him and put him in prison.

Gu Li asked: "Minister Kang, what I told you to think about last night, did you think about it?"

Kang Qizong shuddered and knelt down.

Gu Li asked: "I gave you one night, have you figured out where you went wrong?"

Kang Qizong replied: "The crime of the minister is not strict under the imperial court. The file of the criminal was originally confidential, but Xia Yushi found out that something happened for no reason. Not strict."

Gu Li asked: "Is this the only mistake you made?"

Kang Qizong was so questioned that his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he didn't know how to answer.He originally wanted to seek advice from Prime Minister Mu, but he obviously didn't want Prime Minister Mu to know about His Majesty's visit to the prison in Shuntian Mansion last night. If he leaked the news, His Majesty would be furious, and he would have nothing good to eat.

But if he didn't ask Prime Minister Mu for help, if he played right or wrong, His Majesty would be furious. Without Prime Minister Mu's help, he would be able to defend the border at least, or behead his head at worst.The monarchs of the seventeen dynasties of later Chu were all harsh and ungrateful towards their subjects. Although this young monarch lingered in the harem and didn't care much about affairs, he would never be angry and kill a few ministers. Relentless.

Seeing that Kang Qizong's face turned pale with fright, Gu Li wondered what he was doing, am I so scary.Kang Qizong couldn't answer, so Gu Li could only say: "The Shuntian government officials arrested me because they regarded me as a suspect in the espionage case. Not only was there nothing wrong with it, but I also praised him for his efficiency. To catch me from the huge capital city, this is a capable official! Your mistakes and omissions, one is that you tortured the criminal to death, so how true is the confession you obtained? The people in Tianfu are superfluous and the discipline is lazy. Your drunken eyes are hazy at night. Where did you go to drink flower wine? Or where a rich businessman invited you, and what benefits did you promise? As a state cadre, you should keep a distance from your clients and pay attention Self-image, set a good example in action, act impartially, and do not follow personal interests!"

Kang Qizong lowered his head and heard Gu Li say, "I have eight words to give you."

Kang Qizong promised, and said in his heart whether he should be sent to the army and guard the border, and the family property does not have these eight characters, or should he be beheaded at the Meridian Gate and his family should be exiled?Woohoo, no matter which eight words it is, my life is over now!

Then I heard Gu Li say: "Patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness! The Governor of Kang will always compare these eight words, reflect on himself, and be strict with himself! Did you hear that?"

Kang Qizong was almost sluggish, and repeated: "Patriotism, dedication? Honesty, friendliness?"

Gu Li asked, "What's the matter? Governor Kang doesn't understand?"

Kang Qizong hurriedly said: "Don't dare to dare, I will always reflect on it, and be diligent and diligent, in order to repay Your Majesty's long grace!"

Gu Li said with satisfaction: "Go down."

Kang Qizong escaped from birth, he couldn't believe it.When he walked to the Meridian Gate, he finally came to his senses, was so excited that he burst into tears, and repeatedly called Mazu to bless him, sighing with emotion, and got on the sedan chair.

Outside Shuntian Fuyin's sedan chair, Yang Xiulin followed a soldier with a bundle in his arms, looking back at the imperial city reluctantly.The soldier urged him: "Okay, don't look at it, let's go."

Yang Xiulin shed tears, and followed the soldier, heading towards his hometown in Henan Province.After walking for a whole day, they only walked [-] miles. At night, the two stayed at the post station. Yang Xiulin couldn't help crying because he thought about the personnel affairs in the capital.

The soldier was impatient, and spat: "You little eunuch, why did you cut two taels of flesh and cry like a woman?"

Yang Xiulin scolded: "Pfft! Dogs can't spit out ivory! Who says women are crying, and my sisters and sisters in my family are all cool people!"

The soldier was amused by him, and scolded: "Since there are such good sisters at home, why are you so reluctant to part with the capital? I have been a soldier in the capital for three years, and I have long been bored, and I can't wait to go back to my hometown." Woolen cloth."

"The family is poor, and the sisters are all married." Yang Xiulin said, "I just don't understand. Although those who committed crimes were punished to guard the Xiaoling Mausoleum, at least they can still have jobs. I didn't make any big mistakes. Your Majesty wants to drive me home instead, why is that?"

The soldiers heard about the theft of the palace treasury, and sighed: "Idiot! Idiot!"

Yang Xiulin frowned and said angrily, "Who are you scolding?"

The soldier sighed deeply: "Of course you are an idiot! Why do you drive you out of the palace when you are His Majesty, and ask Yang Shangshu to send me to escort you? That is to save your life! You have exposed Wang Zheng's good deeds. In prison, his good nephew and party followers are still there, do you think you still have a life if you stay in the capital?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiulin was stunned for a long time, finally stood up, knelt down towards the north, knocked his head three times vigorously, tears fell on the ground, and broke into three petals.

However, this morning, Kang Qizong returned to the government office from the Dezheng Palace, still in shock. He took a look at the lazy atmosphere in the government office, and remembered his great ambition to serve the country and the people when he was young. So lazy and slippery people like today?Although he has not surrendered to the eunuch party, he has always followed the philosophy of shrinking his head and protecting himself. When the eunuch party persecutes loyal officials, the party fights dissidents, and excludes dissidents, he dare not stand up for anyone.If Prime Minister Mu hadn't saved him, it would be impossible for him to take orders from Prime Minister Mu.

When did he become such a selfish person?What about his ideal?What about his long-cherished wish?

In the past, the imperial court was full of smog, and it could be said that it was involuntary to protect oneself, but now, can he hope that His Majesty will really kiss virtuous ministers and distant villains, and make the world look completely new?

Thinking of the excitement, Kang Qizong shed two more tears.Thinking of something, he asked the left and right: "Where's Patrol Jiang? Why didn't you see him?"

The person next to him said: "I haven't seen him here this morning! I don't know why this man has been lazy."

Kang Qizong said: "I know about Jiang Xun. He never slackens. Is he sick? Did you send someone to talk to me?"

"Never."

Kang Qizong was a little puzzled, and planned to go and have a look. As soon as he reached the gate of the government office, he saw a person running over, shouting, "That's bad! Jiang Xun arrested and killed his parents, and he is going to commit suicide in fear of crime!"

Kang Qizong was taken aback, and hurriedly grabbed the man and said, "Where is the police officer Jiang? Take me to have a look!"

Kang Qizong ran wildly with the people, and when he came to Toutiao Hutong in Chongjiaofang, he saw Jiang Xiasheng, who was about to jump into the well!

Kang Qizong shouted: "Jiang Patrol! Wait a minute!"

When Jiang Xiasheng saw him, he was even more terrified, and said with a wry smile, "Did Your Majesty personally send the Governor of Kang to arrest me?! You are too flattering Jiang!"

Kang Qizong stepped forward and shouted: "Jiang patrol! Don't be confused, this department is not here to arrest you!"

Jiang Xiasheng was blocked again and again, and he lost the courage to ask for death. His legs went limp, and he fell to the ground, sighing miserably: "Master Kang, don't tease the villain anymore. The villain knows what he offended last night." people……"

Kang Qizong dismissed the onlookers, supported Jiang Xiasheng to stand up, and said, "You are clever, but why didn't you think that if you were to be punished, His Majesty would have punished you yesterday, so why wait until today?"

Jiang Xiasheng raised his head, and there was a glimmer of hope in his gray eyes.

Kang Qizong sighed: "Today Your Majesty summoned me to the Hall of Virtuous Government, instead of blaming you, he personally praised you, saying that you were able to catch him within a few hours in the huge capital city, and you are a capable official!"

Jiang Xiasheng couldn't believe it, he was stunned for a while, and rushed home.Kang Qizong thought of "Jiang Xun captured and killed his parents", and secretly thought that something was wrong, so he hurriedly followed him and ran into Jiang's house.

The scene in front of him stunned him.
