Changzhou Government Office.

Because he wanted to support Li Chengqian.

Deng Xingna also prepared for a long time.

Not only did they invite private chefs from top restaurants in the city to cook a table of delicious food.

He also called all the prominent people in the city.

Obviously, he just wanted to use this harmonious and lively scene to please Li Chengqian.

However, this guy seems to have forgotten how Li Chengqian cleaned up Liangzhou's officialdom.

At that time, he could clean up the officialdom in Liangzhou just by putting on a smile all the time.

Even some guys didn't know when Li Chengqian had the murderous intention until they died.

This is the situation Deng Xing is facing now.

He didn't even know that Li Chengqian came to him this time.

At the reception banquet, Deng Xing also used words to boast about his political achievements from time to time.

He just hopes that at this critical juncture, he can be appreciated by Li Chengqian and even join the prince's camp.

And Li Chengqian has always been gentle and obedient.

Whatever he said, Li Chengqian smiled and nodded, as if he was always happy.

This also made Deng Xing very useful.

He felt that Li Chengqian liked his arrangement very much.

He even felt that Li Chengqian would just leave Changzhou with a smile.

You can get promoted and make a fortune immediately.

But just when the banquet was going on happily.

Li Chengqian suddenly said: "By the way, Mr. Deng, did a man named Zhao Han come to report to the official some time ago?"

Deng Xing was obviously taken aback when he heard Zhao Han's name.

"Yes...yes."

He nodded a little, and then said with some confusion: "Your Highness, do you know this person?"

"Not very familiar."

Li Chengqian shook his head slightly.

Deng Xing was obviously relieved.

However, Li Chengqian immediately added: "But I am quite interested in this person."

"I'd also like to ask."

Li Chengqian looked at Deng Xing and said: "Who did this guy sue at the beginning, and how did he end the case in the end?"<

br>

"this……"

Deng Xing hesitated for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at one of the guests.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian also looked towards that person.

Deng Xing was looking at a middle-aged man in his forties.

When he saw the eyes of these two people looking at him together, the middle-aged man also keenly realized that something was wrong.

However, the middle-aged man was not seen panicking.

He was still sitting there minding his own business, and nodded to the two of them with a smile.

At this time, Li Chengqian spoke slowly and said: "Master Deng, looking at your eyes, could this be the person Zhao Han is suing?"

"Well……"

"this……"

Deng Xing hesitated for a moment, then said: "Yes, it is the second son of the Sun family head that Zhao Han is suing."

"However, his evidence is not sufficient and there are no witnesses."

Deng Xingdao: "In the end, I followed the laws of the Tang Dynasty and dismissed his petition due to insufficient evidence and let him go home."

"oh."

"So this is ah."

Li Chengqian nodded.

What Deng Xing said is quite similar to what Zhao Han said.

However, there are a lot of things missing from it.

For example, Zhao Han said that Deng Xing had someone beat him with thirty sticks.

Deng Xing didn't say anything about this.

Li Chengqian squinted and thought for a moment, then looked at Deng Xing and asked: "Master Deng, do you think there is something hidden in this case?"

"this……"

"I think should not be?"

Deng Xing looked at Li Chengqian and asked tentatively: "After all, there is no evidence, so it looks like he is making a false accusation..."

"oh?"

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and looked at Deng Xing and said, "Is this what Master Deng thinks?"

"Well……"

Deng Xing bowed his hands towards Li Chengqian and said, "I'm sorry for my ignorance, but I'm honest."

I don’t know if there is any hidden secret in this.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Chengqian's expression suddenly changed.

He raised his hand and slammed the table, and said angrily: "Stupid? I don't know? What does the imperial court feed you for?"

In an instant, his angry shouts spread throughout the entire venue.

Everyone in the audience looked at this side with extremely different expressions.

Deng Xing was also frightened so much that his knees went weak and he slid directly from the chair to kneel on the ground.

To be honest, when Li Chengqian is angry, it is really scary.

Deng Xing can be regarded as a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, but at this time he was actually trembling with fear.

He lay on the ground and said tremblingly: "Your Highness, I am... I am incompetent, I am really incompetent."

"hehe."

"It doesn't look like you are incompetent."

"Otherwise, how could you manage Changzhou so well?"

Li Chengqian looked at Deng Xing and said, "You must have just forgotten what an official is and what a parent official is, right?"

Who would have thought that Li Chengqian would change his face just when he said he would?

Who would have thought that Deng Xing, who was chatting and laughing with Li Chengqian just now, would kneel at Li Chengqian's feet in just a moment, trembling...

"No, I dare not forget."

Deng Xing raised his head, looked at Li Chengqian with fear on his face, and said: "Those who are officials serve the country at the top and the people at the bottom."

"Wei Chen has always been loyal to the court and your Majesty."

"Although I dare not say that I am a good official who is rare to find in ancient times."

Deng Xingdao: "But it also allows the people to have enough food, clothing and warmth, and not be wronged..."

"Well fed and warmly clothed, I don't know."

"But this is not unfair. You are talking nonsense."

Li Chengqian waved his hand slowly and said: "Gao Zhixing, bring me people in."

"yes!"

After hearing what he said, Gao Zhixing immediately stepped out of the house.

Not long after, Zhao Han followed Gao Zhixing into the house.

See this man, Deng

Xing's expression changed visibly.

The eyes of the head of the Sun family in the hall also changed slightly, but they soon returned to normal.
