Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Defang nodded, "The surname of the ancestors, the typesetting by generation, the name given by the parents, Zhao Defang."

"Then...you are..." Peng Tianxian looked at Defang in front of him, and suddenly thought of Zhao Defang, the son of Taizu whom he had heard about for many years, and now the famous Eight Sage King, but he should be in Nanqing Palace in the capital, how could he be in Jin state?Peng Tianxian looked at the jade pendant in his hand again, and looked up at Defang again, "Impossible...how could the prince be in Jinzhou..."

"The lonely king came here by the emperor's order. He went out of Beijing for a secret trip, and did not notify the state capitals along the way."

"Emperor's order? You... are really the Eight Sage Kings?" Peng Tianxian was a little surprised, "What is the proof?"

Defang looked at Tian Cheng, Tian Cheng took off the burden on his back, untied it and handed the golden mace to Defang, Defang held the golden mace and said, "Master Peng, can you recognize this thing?"

Peng Tianxian looked at the golden mace in front of him, and then at the jade pendant in his hand, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "I kowtow to the Eight Worthy Kings, my lord is a thousand years old!"

"Master Peng" Defang helped Peng Tianxian, "The lonely king came to Jinzhou to quell the chaos. His Majesty was worried that the chaos in Sichuan and Shu would affect Jinzhou, so he asked the lonely king to come here secretly with a soldier talisman. In case the thieves attack the city, the lonely king You can mobilize surrounding garrisons to encircle and suppress, but if the lonely king is known when he leaves Beijing, he may become the target of rebels, which is not conducive to the war."

"So that's how it is." Peng Tianxian nodded, "Your Majesty personally sent the prince to Jinzhou. It is really a blessing for the people of Jinzhou. Now everything in Jinzhou is smooth, thanks to your majesty's kindness."

"The lonely king has been in Jinzhou for nearly a month, and he has also investigated the situation inside and outside the state capital, and has sent people to send the papers of the report back to Beijing. It is unexpected that this kind of thing will happen when he returns to Beijing." Defang Shaking his head with a wry smile, "If Mr. Peng hadn't suppressed the bandits, I'm afraid the lonely king and his wife would have died already."

"My lord, Hong Fu, is blessed by the heavens." Peng Tianxian bowed, and then looked at Concubine Di, "Then who is this lady?"

Defang smiled, "The lonely king seems to have only one concubine, right? Can't Mr. Peng guess it?"

"The eyes of this lowly official!" Peng Tianxian hurriedly knelt down again and said, "Kowtow to see the empress for a thousand years, and if I am rude, I will ask the lord and empress to come down!"

"Mr. Peng, what are you talking about? Please get up quickly." Defang helped Peng Tianxian again. "Master Peng is the savior of the lonely king and princess. How could the lonely king and empress blame you?"

"This is what the next official should do. I dare not be called a benefactor by the prince and empress."

"Leading troops to suppress bandits is indeed what Mr. Peng should do, but you are able to ask a doctor to treat a patient who has never met. Just because of this alone, the lonely king is very impressed with Mr. Peng."

"Officials are called parents, and they should treat the people as their own children. Even if they are guilty, they will be dismissed from office before they are tried and convicted."

"Hey!" Tian Cheng frowned and said, "What parents and children, what sinful people, what nonsense in front of the prince!"

"The lower official made a slip of the tongue! Your Highness forgive me!"

"Cheng'er!" Defang patted Tian Cheng on the back of the head, "What's going on, Mr. Peng is just talking about his way of being an official, and he didn't say anything wrong."
