Gu Yuzhi, who had always listened to Shu Xiaohan's words, straightened his expression at this moment and said, "I'm not unjust!"

He looked at Shu Xiaohan and said word by word: "You are not unjust!"

Shu Xiaohan stopped her smile and opened her mouth to say something, but couldn't say a word.

This kind of Gu Yuzhi was very strange, something Shu Xiaohan had never seen before.

Shu Xiaohan continued: "Teacher Shu said he was unjust because he was timid and Gu Yufan looked down on those things and did not help him."

Xie Changshi said that the prefect of Yunzhou had evil intentions and was not qualified to serve as the prefect of a state.

So when this happens, even if the Yunzhou magistrate will not be dismissed from his official position, he will only be a small magistrate at most.

Of course Gu Yuzhi was not satisfied with the result, and his eyes dimmed a lot: "But what if Gu Yufan gave him a benefit?"

Shu Xiaohan thought about what Gu Yuzhi said, and naturally understood why Gu Yuzhi was so angry.

If Gu Yufan gives Qin Duan benefits, then Qin Duan will naturally not give up this opportunity to climb up, so he will try his best to make money.

Exorbitant taxes, corruption and bribery, and the robbery of women will become more serious.

Although Yunzhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River, crops are generally harvested twice a year. Yunzhou is not as miserable as Qingzhou, but the life of the people is definitely not easy...

When she thought of this, Shu Xiaohan was shaken all over. She looked at Gu Yuzhi with guilt-filled eyes: "I'm sorry, little prince, I didn't think much about it before."

She knocked her head in frustration, lowered her head and sighed.

As a successful scientific researcher, Shu Xiaohan naturally had excellent academic performance from childhood to adulthood, otherwise it would be impossible to enter the institute.

But she didn't know why, at this time, she actually doubted her IQ.

How could you say such a mindless thing?

She was annoyed, but Gu Yuzhi had no time to pay attention to her at the moment. Looking at Qin Duan who kept kowtowing outside the screen, Gu Yuzhi's face was full of anger.

But he kept Xie Changshi's words in mind and couldn't attack at this time, otherwise he would lose Yunzhou's help.

He glared hard at the man who kept shouting for mercy, and reluctantly said: "You should get up first. We will talk about your affairs later."

He just said that he would talk about it later, and he had absolutely no intention of letting him go.

But Qin Duan, who was in extreme fear, did not hear the meaning of Gu Yuzhi's words, and kowtowed with gratitude. After a while, a big bump appeared on his forehead, and the skin was scratched in some places, and there were traces of it. of blood.

The magistrate of Ningzhou glanced at the screen without leaving any trace, and sighed in his heart.

He naturally understood the meaning of His Highness Wen Wang's words.

Because Ningzhou and Yunzhou are adjacent to each other, the two of them worked together to fight the floods in the south of the Yangtze River.

Thinking that Qin Duan would probably be imprisoned in the future, the prefect of Ningzhou felt sad in his heart.

It was only then that Xie Changshi said: "Okay. Since His Highness has said that we will talk about it later, just get up and sit down quickly."

The most important thing now is to stabilize the situation in Jiangnan before the emperor's edict reaches Jiangnan, so that the army can smoothly go to the front line and rescue the Duke of Qi from the fire.

Qin Duan was afraid that His Highness would be angry because he was slower, so he hurriedly got up and sat on the chair, his shoulders hunched and his head drooped, completely lacking the magnanimity that a prefect of a state should have. It wasn't until everyone outside the screen was quiet that Xie Changshi continued: "You must have heard about the emperor's latest decree. What do you think?"

The three people in the world are naturally not as sensitive to matters in the court as those in the officialdom.

So the three of them looked at each other and kept their mouths shut in tacit understanding.

And Qin Duan didn't dare to speak because of his guilty conscience.

This important task immediately fell on the head of the prefect of Ningzhou.

He stood up with a sigh, saluted respectfully and said: "Your Highness, I would like to say that the King of Chu..."

As soon as the word "King of Chu" came out, the prefect of Ningzhou clearly noticed that Prince Qi looked over with an unkind look.

He was clever and quickly changed his words: "It's Gu Yufan, a common man..."

Although the emperor's decree is already on the way, for these small officials, who have been under the control of King Chu for a long time, there is really no way to associate the word criminal with King Chu and call him out directly. .

Prince Qi slowly looked away, and the magistrate of Ningzhou continued: "Gu Yufan has left Jiangnan, so should His Highness send troops to take over Jiangzhou?"

As for Yangzhou, the prefect of Ningzhou did not dare to speak because he did not know how much situation His Highness King Wen knew now.

After all, Fan Qiu is not like them. He has only been here for more than a year. If he mentioned Fan Qiu at this time, he would very much want to take this opportunity to eliminate the suspicion of dissidents.

Gu Yuzhi's eyes were filled with surprise. He turned to look at Xie Changshi and saw Xie Changshi nodded slightly towards him, and then said, "Then do you have a corresponding plan?"

The magistrate of Ningzhou closed his eyes slightly, thinking to himself that this matter was not that simple.

Before entering the mansion, he had already asked the three owners of Tianquan Villa. Knowing what His Highness King Wen and his entourage had done in the past few days, he naturally understood that His Highness Wen Wang and the others must have countermeasures. .

Asking them now is just to get them to offer help.

But now that he has come to Huizhou, he has made his position clear.

He said softly: "On my way to Huizhou, I have already sent people to deliver letters to the prefects of Huzhou and other places. If nothing else, the prefects of Junzhou and Lizhou should also be on their way."

These prefects have been in Jiangnan for almost ten years, and they all know each other's personalities very well.

When the King of Chu gained power, the most important ones were Jiangzhou, Yangzhou and Huizhou, which had the best economy, followed by Shenzhou and Huzhou. The following several state capitals were basically beyond the control of the King of Chu.

After all, even five fingers can be long or short, so it is normal for the other states not to pay attention to them.

This also leads to the fact that the prefects in these states are relatively honest.

Compared to the Yunzhou magistrate, the things these people committed are nothing...

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yuzhi's eyes lit up, and he turned to look at Xie Changshi, his face full of surprise.

Before, I was thinking of letting Yunzhou and Ningzhou surround the remaining two states, but now the Ningzhou prefect has brought such good news!

Gu Yuzhi was thinking happily, if what the Ningzhou prefect said was true, would they have the fighting power of four more prefectures?
The four state capitals have two thousand city guard troops, Shenzhou and Huzhou each have one thousand, and their four thousand city guard troops are all sent to Jiangzhou and Yangzhou!
In this way, their chances of winning are much greater! (End of chapter)
