The commander of the Beicheng Army and Horses Division came out only after the incident was over.

He looked distressed

"Master Gu, my subordinates are not strict with their subordinates, and they have a scum like Ma Yin. It is really shameful."

Gu Zhao looked at him expressionlessly, seeing cold sweat break out on his forehead before he said, "The He Control Department supervises hundreds of officials. It's not that we don't know about many things, but we don't want to expose them. Do you understand?"

"I understand." The commander thought of all the things he had done about accepting bribes, taking free money, and embezzling logistics funds. The man in his fifties suddenly broke out in sweat.

He is about to reach the age of becoming an official, and he just wants to live a stable life. He doesn't want to provoke anyone at all, and he doesn't want to take sides.

He also didn't dare to offend Kong Hesi now that he was so powerful.

"Captain Luo is diligent, loyal, and conscientious. He should have been promoted long ago." The commander followed Gu Zhao as if he were the humblest follower. "After today, Luo Ting will be the deputy commander of the Beicheng Army and Horses Division!

"

"All affairs in Beicheng will be handled by Luo Ting. If Mr. Gu has any orders, please feel free to do so."

Gu Zhao supported Luo Ting like this, didn't he just take a fancy to this piece of fat in Beijie?

Anyway, no matter who controls Beijie, he should get a lot of examples so that he can't go against Gu Zhao.

Seeing Gu Zhao leading the people away, the commander breathed a sigh of relief.

…

Qin Xinglie dismounted his horse in his palace and combed and cleaned his horse himself.

After an hour, he left the stable and returned to the main hall.

Prince Li's Mansion is not luxurious, and all the servants serving him along the way are men, and many of them have broken arms, lameness, and physical disabilities.

Their eyes were full of reverence as they looked at the figure wearing the evil ghost mask.

"Your Majesty, Du Pinggu is back." The attendant came in to report.

"Tell him to come in."

Du Pinggu is Qin Xinglie's right-hand man, and he was ordered to perform an important task.

Qin Xinglie came back today specifically to wait for him to report.

Du Pinggu is of medium build and has a long scar on his face, from his right temple to the right corner of his mouth. One can easily imagine how serious the injury was.

"I have met the prince!" Du Pinggu saluted seriously, "The Caobang area has been cleaned up, the third boss Ge Yongqiang has taken over, and our manpower has been arranged. From now on, the Caobang area will be our territory!"

Qin Xinglie nodded, he knew that Du Pinggu had always been reliable in his work.

Du Pinggu asked for instructions, "Your Majesty, Ge Yongqiang wants to see you. What do you think should be done to arrange it?"

Qin Xinglie shook his head.

"Yes, I have already told him that if he does well, he will have the opportunity to meet you sooner or later. If he does not do well, he will be just like the first and second masters of the Cao Gang. They can only be thrown into the river to feed the fish."

Saying such cruel words, Du Pinggu's expression did not change at all, and his tone was as calm as if he was talking about today's weather.

Qin Xinglie nodded again, "Well done. Keep an eye on the North Street Water Transport Terminal."

It was just such a simple compliment, but Du Pinggu felt as if he had received some treasure. He became excited, "Yes! Don't worry, Your Majesty! I will definitely pay close attention to the water transport terminal, especially the warehouse, and will never allow any accidents to happen."

!”

He suddenly smiled, and the scars on his face twisted and deformed. He looked scary, but his tone was very warm, "No one can touch the princess's things with a finger!"

"Whoever dares to stretch out his hand will chop off his hand! Even if it's Qingyi Tang!"

Qin Xinglie stood up, walked to Du Pinggu, and patted his shoulder, "I believe you."

Du Pinggu walked out of the palace with a glowing face and full of strength.

If it hadn't been for the prince, he would have died countless times.

Now, although he cannot go to the battlefield to fight, he can still serve the prince, which makes him feel extremely proud.

Jiang Yuan walked into the main hall complaining, "Old Du seems to have taken aphrodisiac, his energy is really..."

Qin Xinglie glanced at him and said, "Prepare water."

Every time he carried Gu Zhao out, he would take a shower before going back, so as not to bring back the smell from outside and make Gu Zhao suspicious.

Jiang Yuan was particularly excited today, probably because he had trampled the members of Dong Hao's mission into pieces, and he strongly expressed his intention to rub the prince's back.

Qin Xinglie glanced at him lazily and had no objection.

But as soon as he turned his back to Jiang Yuan, he heard Jiang Yuan say "Huh", "My lord, what is this on you?"

Qin Xinglie did not look back, "Huh?"

Jiang Yuan reached out and tapped Qin Xinglie's lower back in surprise, "Here, when did there be a...birthmark here?"

It is not accurate to say that the birthmark is because Jiang Yuan has been with Qin Xinglie for many years and this is not the first time he has given him a back rub. He has never seen such a pattern on his lower back before.

Qin Xinglie was a little surprised, "What birthmark?"

He couldn't see this location, so he could only imagine it based on Jiang Yuan's description.

"The red pattern, one inch high, looks a bit like a crane?" Jiang Yuan looked more and more like it, and couldn't help but marveled, "It really looks like a crane. It seems to be flying with its wings raised."

"My lord, what's going on? Is it God's will? Because the princess is Caihe, God also arranged a crane-shaped birthmark for you to prove that you two are a perfect match?"
