The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 599

Under the appreciative eyes of everyone in the Zhang family, Zhao Dongting took Xiong Ye and Cai Yutang away from the Zhang family.

Seeing that he was leaving outside, Yu Quandong hesitated to speak.Du head knelt on the ground trembling, still did not dare to look up.

The surrounding people of Zhangjia Village all looked at Zhao Dongting with extremely puzzled and respectful eyes.

When night fell, Zhao Dongting returned to the palace.

Xiyi took several life guards and fast horses, and rushed to Zhangjia Village under the guidance of the police.

Fu Dutou's official position is low, and he doesn't know the Holy Sword Order of the Hall of Glory, which is equivalent to the second rank. As the magistrate of Leizhou and a close minister who is appreciated by Zhao Dongting, he knows it, so he naturally dare not neglect it.

When Xiyi arrived outside Zhang Chenglin's house, there were more people around the door than when Zhao Dongting was there.

Seeing Xiyi, who was wearing a scarlet official robe and a long-winged hat, even the villagers of Zhangjia Village immediately stopped whispering and showed great respect.

The official robes of officials in the Song Dynasty had a specific system, green for ninth rank and above, scarlet for sixth rank and above, and purple and red for fourth rank and above.

Since the imperial court moved to Changsha, Xiyi can be said to be the only high-ranking official in Leizhou who can wear a scarlet official robe and hang a silver fish bag on his waist.

Even if it is Leizhou's supervision and punishment, because he is half a level behind him, he is only from the sixth rank, so he can't wear the scarlet official robe, let alone the whitebait bag bestowed by the emperor.

Fortunately, when Zhao Dongting asked the police to call Xiyi, his voice was not low, and these common people who were not sure of Xiyi's identity could guess that it was Lord Zhizhou who came.

Immediately, everyone around knelt down on the ground, "I have seen Mr. Zhizhou."

Fu Du, whose legs were already numb on the ground, was shaking slightly again.

Unexpectedly, Master Zhizhou actually came, and he came so fast.What kind of identity does that young man in brocade clothes have that can scare people to death?

Hong Wutian walked out of the house with Yu Quandong and others.

Zhang Chenglin and the others heard shouts from outside just now, and knelt down on the ground respectfully, bowing to Xiyi.

Not to mention Zhizhou, the magistrate of Haikang County alone is already a great official to these people.Too many people may not be able to see such a high-ranking official in person throughout their lives.

Seeing Hong Wutian, Xiyi put on a shy smile and ran up, "Senior Hong, did these short-sighted guys provoke you?"

Then he stretched his neck and looked inside.

Hong Wutian still had a good impression of Xiyi, a smart young man, and said softly: "That one has already gone back. You don't need to look at it."

Then he said to Zhang Chenglin: "Zhang Chenglin, tell the Zhizhou adults what happened to your two families, and the Zhizhou adults will make decisions for you."

The servants of the Zhang family who were kneeling next to Zhang Guangyao's body were trembling.

When their masters were alive, their prestige and status were far inferior to this Lord Zhizhou who was favored by the emperor, let alone now that the masters are dead.They knew that this time they might suffer disaster.

Zhang Chenglin kowtowed to Xiyi and told the truth about Zhang Guangyao's occupation of their land and his intention to rob their two wives.

After hearing this, Xiyi showed an angry face, "Where is that Guangyao?"

Hong Wutian pointed to Zhang Guangyao's corpse on the ground, and said with a smile: "Seeing the young master, he was already frightened to death."

Xiyi was slightly stunned, then looked at Fu Dutou, who was kneeling next to him, and frowned slightly, "Where are you from? Why are you here?"

Because there was enough time on the way, he didn't have time to ask the policeman who led the way to find out everything.

Fu Dutou was timid and dared not speak.

Hong Wutian said again: "He is here to support Zhang Guangyao. As for whether there is anyone behind him, I know you should go and check, Mr. Zhou."

Xi Yi shyly leaned into Hong Wutian's ear again, "Senior Hong, just remind me of the younger generation, what does the emperor mean?"

Hong Wutian only said: "The emperor has never tolerated people who are corrupt and pervert the law."

Xiyi nodded, "That kid understands."

When he turned his head to look at the first class of Fudu, his expression became very cold, "Take off his official uniform, and go to prison to wait for the interrogation in person by the government. The rest of the arrests will all be dismissed, and they will never be hired in this lifetime."

Several personal guards stepped forward, pulled Fu Du's head up, and took off his official robe in twos and twos.

This is the guy who eats.However, Fu Dutou didn't dare to resist at all.

Most officials can crush people to death, not to mention that Xiyi's officials are several levels higher than him, and he is the immediate boss of his immediate boss.

After the official robe was cut off, Fu Du lost a lot of energy in an instant.

The policemen kneeling on the ground begged for mercy one after another, wanting to keep their jobs, but Xiyi didn't pay any attention to them.

Xi Yi just looked at the servants of the Zhang family again, and said: "You all follow me back to the government office, but I want to see how many angry things your master has done over the years."

After finishing speaking, he looked back at Hong Wutian and blinked his eyes.

Hong Wutian knew what he meant and was satisfied with the result, so he nodded slightly.

Although what Zhang Guangyao did made Zhao Dongting extremely angry, it was not enough to behead all these people.

Xiyi shook his sleeve robe, "Bring them all back to the government office."

Several personal guards with sabers escorted dozens of dejected police officers and dozens of servants of the Zhang family, followed Xiyi and Hong Wutian, left Zhang's house, and returned to Haikang.

Zhang Chenglin brought Zhang Xiaotao and the others to kneel down again, "Thank you, Master Qingtian."

All the villagers in Zhangjia Village fell to their knees.

The voice never stopped for a long time.

Yu Quandong led the leader of the Hailong Gang to follow step by step.

At the entrance of the village, Hong Wutian stopped, and said to Xiyi next to him: "This time, Hailong helped the leader and all the brethren also put in some effort."

Xiyi has also been an official for several years, after a little deliberation, he quickly understood Zhao Dongting's meaning, looked at Yu Quandong, and said politely: "This trip is thanks to the leader of the gang, and the leader of the gang will take all the brothers back first. I will reward myself for meritorious deeds."

Yu Quandong was flattered, and quickly cupped his hands: "Thank you, Master Zhizhou."

He didn't care about the court's rewards, he was already satisfied to be able to show his face in front of Lord Zhizhou.

It's just that he didn't know the identity of Mr. Zhao in the end, which made him feel a little regretful.At this point, he also recalled that Mr. Zhao didn't want to get involved with their Hailong Gang.

But what can he do?
I can only sigh in my heart.

Some backers have high branches, and they can't be easily climbed just by climbing.In the past, he had a relationship with the government office, but he had a lot of closed doors.

The two groups of people were divided into two groups outside Zhangjia Village, one headed to the port and the other to Haikang, and the dust was flying.

The neighbors outside Zhang Chenglin's house still hadn't left. After Xiyi left, the atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and all the neighbors asked Zhang Chenglin what was going on.

Some people also asked who the young man in brocade clothes with two fingers and broken knives was.

It's just that Zhang Chenglin obviously couldn't answer.

He didn't even dare to think that this young man in brocade clothes would be the son of today.

Leizhou Palace.

Originally, Nuo was a big palace, but because Concubine Yang Shu and others left, although Zhizhou Xiyi also moved in after him, it undoubtedly still seemed deserted.

No one dared to move Zhao Dongting's bedroom. When they returned to the bedroom, Mrs. Xu and Tie Liduan, who had rushed back to Haikang earlier, came out of the room.

At this time, Tie Liduan's injury had healed, Zhao Dongting finally felt relieved when he saw this.

Before he could fall asleep, Xiyi rushed back to the government office and sent Fudu first and the others to jail, without an overnight interrogation, he followed Hong Wutian to see Zhao Dongting in a hurry.

As soon as he saw Zhao Dongting, Xiyi knelt down on the ground and said: "This humble minister is not strict in his rule, please forgive me."

Zhao Dongting smiled angrily, "You guys are doing this to me too. If you are punished because of this incident, why don't you say that I am heartless?"

When Xiyi heard Zhao Dongting's words, he knew that the emperor didn't mean to be angry with him, so he laughed, "How dare a humble minister!"

Zhao Dongting stepped forward and helped Xiyi up, "I personally promoted you to the imperial court as an official. From now on, Leizhou will be handed over to you. You don't want people to gossip about me behind your back. Zhang Guangyao deceived everyone , not tolerated, the Zhang family will copy. Those officials, big and small, who are behind the scenes, must not be let go, and the officials are strictly governed. Only in this way, there will be no mistakes in Leizhou in the future. Leizhou is developing too fast now, and there are many People's minds will become more active, so you need to pay more attention."

Xiyi stopped laughing and nodded solemnly, "This humble minister takes orders."

Zhao Dongting patted him on the shoulder again, but suddenly laughed again, "I'm leaving Leizhou, let's have a few drinks with me, without the emperor and ministers, how about it?"

"it is good."

Xi Yi nodded.

His drink is not for the king, but for his friends.In the future, it will be difficult for the two to meet again.

That night, the biggest official of the Song Dynasty and Panxi, the biggest official of Leizhou, sat on the roof, toasted to invite the bright moon, and they drank together into six people.

Looking back, when Xiyi risked his life to deliver the letter, it still seemed like yesterday.

Now Liu Hongyi is going to work in Jingjiang Mansion, Xiyi is staying in Leizhou, Zhao Dongting will go to Changsha, and they will be separated from each other in the future. Whether they will meet again in this life is uncertain.
