Three hundred and ninetieth chapters can be raised and hidden
After Chen Bingxian's words fell, Zhu Biao seemed not to have heard them. He still tapped the table with the back of his fingers rhythmically. The sound of "dong-dong-dong" echoed in everyone's ears, and it was like a small hammer hitting their hearts.
After Chen Bingxian finished speaking, he regretted it. In any case, he should not have used such clichés to reply to His Highness the Crown Prince. Cold sweat instantly flowed down, but he could not swallow back what he had just said.
Chen Rongyan on the side gritted his teeth and pushed Chen Bingxian hard until he was unsteady and fell directly to the ground: "I see you are becoming more and more unruly! You dare to say those prevarications in front of His Highness,
Why don’t you tell the truth quickly!”
Chen Bingxian immediately knelt down: "I have been in business for many years, and I have become accustomed to saying this so often. Please forgive me, Your Highness. I have only met Zhang Wenming, the prefect of Pingyang, a few times, but I also know that he embezzled at least 20,000 shi."
Disaster relief grain, and other general magistrates and officials are also the same."
Only then did Zhu Biao stop tapping, and as soon as the ordinary sound stopped, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Facing His Highness the Crown Prince was really stressful, and they had to pay attention to propriety at all times.
Zhang Wenming, I remember that he was born in the former Yuan Dynasty. He once worked for Zhang Shicheng and later took the initiative to lead the city to surrender...
Zhu Biao thought about it carefully and determined that he had not seen this person in recent years. This would be much easier. Shaanxi and Gansu are remote and not a very good place. Officials who can be placed here are generally
He has no status in the government.
Local officials who do not have the status of holy family will naturally not be able to see the prince. Moreover, with the growth of his body in recent years, Zhu Biao's body shape and appearance have also changed quite a lot. As long as he avoids the imperial envoys sent by the imperial court, he should be able to do so in a short time.
Will not be exposed.
After all, even those who have seen Zhu Biao, few have the courage to take a closer look at Zhu Biao's appearance. Looking directly at the king is a crime of disrespect. I am afraid that they know the prince's court dress and crown better than the prince's appearance.
There is no need to ask about the rest of the matter. In fact, what Chen Bingxian said is not all shirk. Even though he is relying on the Chen family, he is still a businessman himself. He may know some insider information in the officialdom, but let him come up with conclusive evidence.
Proof is impossible.
"Okay, you all go down and call me before going to the banquet."
Chen Rongyan immediately pulled his stiff-limbed cousin to leave. After leaving the door, he threw away his hand and scolded in a low voice: "You are really crazy. You regard His Highness as the petty officials you interact with on weekdays."
,If it weren’t for His Highness’s kindness, would you still want to walk out alive?”
Chen Bingxian hurriedly confessed, but Chen Rongyan softened his tone after seeing this. After giving him a few instructions, he asked him to go down and prepare. After all, he was the local snake in Pingyang.
After watching his cousin walk away, Chen Rongan, who had a somewhat bad look on his face, suddenly changed his expression, and there was even joy in his eyes. He was serving in the imperial court, so naturally he had to have his own ups and downs. He was originally worried that he would be raped after arriving in Pingyang.
He stole the limelight, but now it's just right.
Even though His Highness is kind enough not to argue with him, he will never rely on Chen Bingxian. As a result, it is I, Chen Rongyan, who is most favored by Your Highness during this trip.
After making up their mind, they went down to do their business. The gate of the city was heavily guarded. Moreover, the man surnamed Zhao just did not mention letting them transport the food into the city to settle down first. This was to put pressure on them. In just a short time, the guards were all
We have already captured dozens of refugees who are ready to get enough food.
Zhu Biao asked Liu An to take out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and write a letter to Quan Xu to lead people to select suitable children. After all, even if Zhu Biao could successfully provide disaster relief, the outcome of those children would probably not be good. Orphans and widowed mothers would not be able to survive.
Even if there are no natural disasters in this world, there are also man-made disasters.
In the evening, Chen Rongyan came to invite Zhu Biao, saying that Governor Zhao and Pingyang Tongpan personally came to invite them to the city for a banquet. However, they were not the ninth-rank Zhima officials with the surname Zhao, but the government presumed that they were full-sixth-rank officials, which could not be said to be small.
Chen Rongyan hesitated and said: "In a while, except for the prefect of Pingyang, all other important officials will attend the banquet. Given the identity of the young master, I might as well not go."
Zhu Biao knew what Chen Rongyan meant. His current identity was the son of the Zhao family, but he was not Chen Yunshu. In terms of status, he had to take the initiative to show courtesy to those who speculated on the same subject.
Zhu Biao smiled nonchalantly. He was a very realistic person. It didn't matter if he had to do something embarrassing. Besides, the salute was just bending down and handing over, not asking him to kneel down and kowtow.
However, he is the crown prince after all, and if someone who is not worthy of his position accepts his gift, he will eventually suffer disaster. Zhu Biao will treat it as offering incense to the dead in advance.
"It doesn't matter, let's go and see the judge now."
Zhu Biao stood up and walked out, and Chen Rongyan followed respectfully, sighing in his heart that a real dragon can be big or small, rise or hide, and is definitely not a man with teeth and claws.
Not far away, I saw Chen Bingxian and Governor Zhao whom I had met at noon, talking in agreement with a middle-aged scholar with a long beard. Zhu Biao had a bit of impatience on his face, but he still stepped forward and saluted with his hands raised: "
The student has seen Mr. Judgment."
The man's eyes were always on Zhu Biao, and he didn't say anything when he saw how impatient he was. Not all the young masters from the capital had such virtues, and looked down upon them, state officials.
Liu Ziliang smiled and said: "Young Master Chen is really a talented person. I have admired you for a long time. I was thinking of going to the capital to meet you when I had free time. I didn't expect to meet the young master here first. I must do my best to be a landlord.
I hope Mr. Chen will not be polite."
Zhu Biao straightened his back and swung the folding fan in his hand: "If you do as the Romans do, students will not be polite."
"Hahaha, you are worthy of being Master Chen Tongzheng. He is indeed very arrogant. Then please go ahead. Mr. Tongzhi has been waiting in the restaurant for a long time."
A few people exchanged polite greetings, and then got on the carriage and entered the city together. Han Zheng and others followed secretly. In fact, someone had already entered the city to protect them along the way. After all, they wanted to ensure that everything was safe.
During the car ride, Liu Guipuan and Chen Gongzi were naturally the core of the conversation, and Liu Ziliang frequently showed his kindness to Chen Gongzi. On the surface, he looked like he was ready to please Chen Youzong, the General Affairs Minister, but in fact he was still trying to find out.
Zhu Biao was very good at dealing with people. What kind of people usually dealt with him. It would be too fanciful for a state government to want to touch him. However, Zhu Biao still deliberately tricked him into saying something. After all, he was a young prince.
You shouldn't be able to get around an old fox like Bu Gao.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Liu Ziconian was satisfied and felt that he had almost touched it. If there were not two old foxes from the Chen family beside him who interrupted him, this boy would have tricked several girls he had played with.
Zhu Biao also showed that he was a lot closer to Liu Ziliang. This is also a common problem among young people, they always trust others easily.
