Chapter 174
Hearing this, the emperor immediately scolded angrily: "You brat, you don't know how flexible you are, you're such an elm lump, what I said just now was for nothing, didn't you?"

Jiang Chengxiao said stubbornly: "I will keep your Majesty's words in mind. It's just that this kind of matter is related to the face of the court. How can I hide it from your majesty? Even if your majesty doesn't agree with my approach, I will not give up."

The emperor was choked by him, pointed at him angrily, and said: "My boy, I can't control you, I let your father take good care of you, you go to Zhao Wang's mansion immediately, and tell Zhao Wang about this, I want to see if you listen to your father, I will go right away!"

"Yes."

Jiang Chengxiao bowed and stepped back.

Watching him leave, the emperor's expression suddenly changed, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said, "What do you think of this son?"

After the words fell, an old eunuch came out from behind the screen.He is an old man who served by the emperor's side when he was still in the hidden residence, and he has won the emperor's trust.A Weng smiled and leaned forward, "Son of Chicheng."

"Ah Weng is right in his words." The emperor chuckled lightly, "Although this little fellow is reckless, he did not hide anything from me."

A Weng chuckled, "Your Majesty, although the son is sincere, there is still room for improvement in major matters. You must not let Duke Xu know about this matter today."

The emperor nodded, "I have already appeased Fang's family, so Yang Taisu probably won't say anything. As for Zheng Shanyuan, he won't talk too much about it."

At this moment, an internal servant passed on the news reported by the Jinwu Guard.The emperor asked him to come in to speak, and a Jinwu guard entered the imperial study room, knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, thousands of people gathered in front of the palace city to petition, expressing their unwillingness to leave Guanzhong and move to Bingzhou."

Hearing this, the emperor understood who did this, and immediately shouted: "What kind of petition, this is clearly a gathering of people to make trouble, what else can I sue, what is the magistrate of Chang'an doing, why don't you send everyone away!"

"Yes, I'll go right now." Jin Wuwei shrank his neck and immediately took the order to go.

The emperor sneered and said: "Is this the only way? I thought they were preparing for something after holding back for so long. In the end, it was nothing."

A Weng said: "Your Majesty's relocation of the tenants to Bingzhou is what the people want. What kind of conspiracy and tricks can they have? The general trend cannot be violated."

Jiang Chengxiao walked out of the imperial city, looked up at the dazzling sunlight in the sky, reached out to touch Junxiu's face, and murmured: "This mask is so useful, I almost believed it myself."

Immediately, his face was replaced with a look of compassion and depression.Not far from him, Fang Xuanzao, accompanied by Nan Jiyun and others, walked to Jiang Chengxiao's side.

"My lord, what did your Majesty say?" Fang Xuanzao looked at him expectantly.

With a bitter face, Jiang Chengxiao first sighed, and then said: "Brother Fang owes you a great trust, Your Majesty!"

Fang Xuanzao's heart sank, he knew that this matter was hopeless.Jiang Chengxiao immediately clasped his hands and said, "I let Brother Fang down, it's all because of my inability."

"Your Majesty, you must not do this." Fang Xuanzao immediately supported him with both hands, and said, "Your Majesty has done his best, how can I not know. Yuwen Shuzheng has won the holy family, and there is no evidence in my hands, so how can you blame the Majesty for doing things?" Ineffective. If there is no help from the prince, I am afraid that His Majesty will not know about this matter. Although Xuan Zao is dull, he still knows some rules."

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao sighed again, "I hope General Fang can rest in peace."

Fang Xuanzao was silent for a moment, and then forced a smile and said, "My father, Quanxia knows, will be grateful for the kindness of the son for helping today. Xuanzao will remember the kindness of the son, and will definitely repay the son in the future."

Jiang Chengxiao was disappointed and said: "Is there anything to repay, and I haven't done it. Although His Majesty listened to my words today, he also reprimanded me because of insufficient evidence, and asked me to tell my father about it. Alas, I feel more and more useless."

Nan Jiyun and Wu Shanhui looked at each other, and they lowered their heads silently.

Hearing this, Fang Xuanzao felt even more sorry for Jiang Chengxiao in his heart.The two met by chance, but this son was willing to enter the palace to sue the imperial court just because of his one-sided words. This man is really sincere and virtuous.

"It's all because I'm here, and my son is hurt." Fang Xuanzao said guiltily: "If it's not because of me, my son will not be reprimanded by His Majesty."

Jiang Chengxiao waved his hand and said calmly: "Brother Fang, you don't have to be like this. I went out with the army in February, and I know that the Turks are fierce. General Fang died for the country, how can his family be chilled, but I am humble, I feel very sorry for not being able to help you, and I hope you don't blame me for not being able to do things well."

"Don't you dare?" Fang Xuanzhan said hastily: "What did the son say, Xuanzhan didn't have time to be grateful, how dare he lightly blame him, the son is really, really a good person." At the end of the speech, Fang Xuanzhan's eyes were moistened.

Is there another person in Chang'an who can sincerely petition for the people like Prince Zhao?

No!

Jiang Chengxiao sighed, and was about to say goodbye to Fang Xuanzao, when he thought of something "suddenly", slapped his head, and said, "I was so dizzy that I almost forgot an important thing. Brother Fang, Your Majesty is loyal to the country because of General Fang." To die, I specially appointed you as the magistrate of Huang County in Donglai County, and let you go to the post with me, congratulations brother Fang."

Fang Xuanzhan was startled for a moment, then looked at Jiang Chengxiao movedly, "Thank you, my son, for begging for your kindness in front of His Majesty, I really appreciate it!"

He felt that Jiang Chengxiao must have helped him in this matter, otherwise, how could the emperor let him go to Donglai County to serve as the county magistrate? Before that, the emperor didn't even give him a chance to meet him.

Jiang Chengxiao said: "This is not what I asked for. It is Your Majesty's gratitude to General Fang for his contribution to the country. You deserve it."

"I know it, I know it all, my son doesn't need to say it, I understand it." Fang Xuanzhan said "I understand everything" on his face.

Well, now that you understand it, I won't explain it either.

Jiang Chengxiao smiled and said: "Brother Fang, I know you are sad, but you still have to cheer up. If you can make achievements in Donglai County in the future, maybe your majesty will."

Some words need not be finished, everyone understands them all.

Fang Xuanzao nodded, and solemnly bowed to Jiang Chengxiao, "Xuanzao will always remember the kindness of my son's help today, and if he is forced to do so in the future, Xuanzao will definitely not give up."

Jiang Chengxiao helped him up, and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, if there is a destiny in the future, you and I may also be officials in the same court."

Fang Xuanzhan lowered his head and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said, "Then I'll go back and get ready first."

"Go."

Jiang Chengxiao smiled and watched Fang Xuanzao leave.After his figure completely disappeared, Jiang Chengxiao's face straightened slightly, and he said expressionlessly: "Let's go, go to the palace."

The emperor asked him to go, of course he had to go.

The fact that the people gathered in front of Miyagi to petition quickly reached the ears of the nobles in Guanzhong. Dugu Luo, who knew who was behind the scenes, fully reported the matter to his clan brother Duguzheng.

"Patriarch, should we take rescue measures now?"

"Rescue measures? What do you mean by that?" Dugu rolled his eyelids, grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it into the pond.The golden-red carps are scrambling around the fish food in the pond, which looks quite pleasing to the eye.

Duguluo was surprised that Duguzheng didn't get angry after hearing the news, and he said immediately: "Patriarch, isn't Dou Zhang doing this as an excuse?"

"Then what do you think you can do if you don't do this?" Dugu asked back.

If they don't make a fuss about this matter, the emperor must feel that they have no good intentions and must be preparing for something.Now that Dou Zhang has made a fuss, the emperor is relieved.In any case, the necessary gesture of resistance must be made.

"I..." Dugu Luo was stunned, completely unable to understand what Patriarch meant.

Duguzheng didn't intend to explain to him, and said: "Since Dou Zhang has already done what you prepared, stop, lest there will be any trouble."

Hearing this, Dugu Luo's expression changed, and he said awkwardly: "It turns out that the Patriarch knows all about it."

"Hmph." Dugu snorted coldly, "You can hide your little thoughts from anyone, I don't care what you are doing, stop now, immediately, immediately."

Being looked down upon by the Patriarch, Dugu Luo said stubbornly: "Patriarch, are we really going to sit back and watch 50 laborers leave Guanzhong? There are so many Fang clan members in our family who are all very dissatisfied now!"

Dugu's face turned cold, "Okay, anyone who is dissatisfied will be expelled from Dugu's house immediately!"

Facing Patriarch's tough attitude, Dugu Luo's lips moved and he didn't speak.
