Chapter 67

Several days passed, and with the departure of the governor Li Yan and the county magistrate Taimin, Xinye County returned to its former peace.

However, Xu Zun's exclamation came from the Xinye County government office.

"No?" But when Xu Zun was holding a gold-edged imperial edict, he asked in surprise, "Is this an imperial edict? Is it a bit of a play?"

In Xu Zun's impression, when the imperial edict arrives, he usually has to approach the far away, fall to the ground and bow his head, and shout long live long live long live long, etc.

But now that the imperial edict has arrived, there is no show at all, and no one even reads it. It is just handed over to Xu Zun by the county magistrate Luo Baiwan and asked him to see it himself.

"Oh, County Magistrate Xu, don't joke, oh, it's wrong..." Luo Baiwan hurriedly changed his words, "Now I'm asking you to raise Master Xing! The emperor's kindness is so great that we are in awe. We can't speak lies, haha..."

After the Iron Coffin Case, County Magistrate Luo's attitude towards Xu Zun changed greatly, and he no longer dared to underestimate this former humble county lieutenant.

oh……

Relevant information popped up in Xu Zun's mind. It turned out that the imperial edicts of the Daxuan Dynasty were divided into different levels. For those of Xu Zun, the royal family just issued an imperial edict politely, and it was not as exaggerated as in the TV series.

Only then did Xu Zun realize that he was in a superficial dynasty, and many rules were different from real historical dynasties.

Open the imperial edict, but see the text above is simple and clear:

"Xinye County Magistrate Xu Zun was a successful candidate for cracking the iron coffin case and was promoted to Tangzhou for punishment. He was appointed as the seventh-rank official salary and took office today. I will be honored."

Tangzhou’s punishment?

Xu Zun soon learned that this Tangzhou senator was the senator of a provincial-level unit.

The nature of his work is basically the same as that of Chen Taiji, the censor of the Ministry of Justice, who is to verify major criminal cases that have occurred in various places, but it is one level lower than Chen Taiji, and the scope of work is limited to the jurisdiction of Tangzhou.

In fact, in the past few days, Xu Zun has had a vague premonition that he will have major changes after the iron coffin case.

I didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Logically, it is extremely rare for Xu Zun to jump directly from a ninth-rank county magistrate to a seventh-rank rank, and he should be happy.

But Xu Zun was a little unhappy.

Because, Cai Kun, the leader of the Inner Guard Pavilion, strongly recommended him. If it really played a role, then he should have entered the unit under the Inner Guard, right?

The criminal officer may be appointed to the Ministry of Justice and shall be appointed by the provincial government.

As we all know, Empress Dowager Lin has a rift with the Ministry of Justice, so how could she enter the Ministry of Justice?

Could it be... because I am the son of Xu Changlin, the Minister of Dali Temple?

Or is it because Mr. Shen is the Minister of Justice?

Or, Cai Kun wants to arrange for himself to join the Ministry of Justice and be their eyeliner?

"Xu Tixing," at this time, County Magistrate Luo handed Xu Zun another official document with the seal of the prefecture official and said, "This is an expedited document sent by the governor's office and the imperial edict together. It was written by Lord Li Yan himself. You can take a look!"

oh?

Xu Zun took the official document, but saw that the official document was obscure and difficult to read. If it weren't for the fact that the original Xu County Magistrate had a certain writing skills, it would be difficult for him to understand it.

In the official document, Tangzhou Governor Li Yan first expressed his appreciation to Xu Zun, and then congratulated Xu Zun as the chief of the punishment and said some encouragement.

Finally, the document finally got to the point, which was to ask him, Xu Tixing, who had just taken office, to immediately arrive in Shangyuan City to deal with an emergency case.

Shangyuan City is the location of Shangyuan County’s county government and belongs to a municipal city.

Logically speaking, Xu Zun is now promoted to a provincial official, so he should first go to Wude City, the prefecture to report.

It can be seen from this that this so-called emergency case must be very urgent!

"Xu Tixing," Luo Baiwan bowed to Xu Zun and said, "Mr. Governor means that you must set off immediately, and... the carriage has been prepared for you!"

No way?

So urgent?

Xu Zun hurriedly asked: "Mr. Luo, do you know what happened to Shangyuan City?"

"I don't know, but," said Luo Baiwan, "According to the sender, the governor is now in Shangyuan City!

"They also said that your official certificate and salary certificate are also in the governor's place, and you will be processed by you when you go!"

"oh……"

Xu Zun nodded and said in his heart. It seemed that something really happened!

Unexpectedly, I had just had a few days off and embarked on a new journey. I wonder what kind of cases I would encounter there?

So Xu Zun stood up and said goodbye to Luo Baiwan.

"Ji Ying," Luo Baiwan said ashamed, "Luo had offended him before. I shouldn't have slandered you and Mr. Shen in front of the iron coffin in the secret room.

"But I hope you can understand that in that situation at that time, I was not only for myself, but also for the entire Xinye County Office!"

After saying that, Luo Baiwan bowed to the end and apologized to Xu Zun.

Xu Zun hurriedly helped him: "Mr. Luo is so serious. Anyone would do that!"

"From the future," Luo Baiwan said again, "I hope Lord Tixing will ignore his past grudges and take more care of him!"

"Haha," Xu Zun smiled, "I will definitely not forget my original intention!"

Although the Tangzhou criminal prosecutor is only a seventh-rank official and is at the same level as the county magistrate, because he has the right to supervise and correct mistakes, his rights are naturally much greater than those of the county magistrate.

Of course, County Magistrate Luo did not want to offend this future leader.

"Mr. Xu, Lord. Xu, hahaha..." Unexpectedly, Xu Zun was about to leave, but behind him, the loud voice of the captain Zhao Yu came, "It's great. I can play with Lord Xu again in the future!"

Xu Zun turned his head and saw Zhao Yu wearing a thick cotton coat, a package squinted across his shoulder, looking like he was about to travel far away.

"You..." Xu Zun was surprised and had already guessed something in his heart.

"What, did Lord Luo not tell you?" Zhao Yu smiled silly, "I will be your personal guard from now on!"

"This..." Xu Zun's heart sank and felt deeply worried.

"Oh, look at my brain," Luo Baiwan said hurriedly, "Your Majesty also issued an order. Since Captain Zhao was a meritorious in assisting the iron coffin case, Captain Zhao was specially appointed as the arrest guard and assisting Xu Tixing in the public office."

I'll go...

Xu Zun was shocked. Unexpectedly, it was actually the emperor's conferred it!

This is a troublesome...

Now that things have come, although Zhao Yu is brave and resourceful, his origin is unknown, so he cannot figure it out and dare not get too close to him.

Especially after discovering Ku Niang, Xu Zun was even more afraid that Zhao Yu would see the secret.

If someone sent this Zhao Yu, it would probably be unfavorable to him.

However, he was personally conferred by the emperor and he could not resign him.

well!

how so?

Does it mean...must I keep Ku Niang at home?

no……

Xu Zun firmly denied that Ku Niang's secrets had not been found out yet, and she must not let her leave her sight.

"Mr. Xu," Zhao Yu said happily, "When will we set off? Don't worry, with me here, no matter what case happens there, we will definitely be able to handle it! Yes?"

"Hahaha," Xu Zun pretended to laugh, hugged Zhao Yu's shoulder and said, "Of course, I will be more confident with Captain Zhao as my companion, hahaha..."

As they said that, the two walked out towards the winter sun.

Xu Zun smiled on his face, but he was planning something quickly in his mind...
Chapter completed!
