Chapter 132

Bai Yixing and Xue Guang had already met outside, and the two exchanged a few words in a hurry.

"Are you sent here, sir?" Xue Guang lowered his voice, and seemed dissatisfied in his words, "Could it be that I can't handle such a small matter? Besides, with my eldest brother by the prince's side, what can I do?" matter."

Xue Guangwei is the most self-willed person. Although Bai Yixing is "one of his own", it takes a little effort to deal with him.

Bai Yixing took a look outside, and the person who went in to report hadn't come back yet, so he leaned closer and said, "My lord can't trust you, brother Xue has always been quick to handle things. He's worried about that..."

Speaking of this, he stretched out five fingers and sighed: "This one has never bought anyone's face, I have to serve this living ancestor well."

Xue Guang curled his lips indifferently, apparently not paying attention to Bai Yixing's words.He is king and hegemony in Wushan County, it can be said that he is watching the sky from a well.Since he thinks that the crown prince will be a stable successor to Datong in the future, his elder brother Xue Ding must be a hero, and even with him, he will continue to be rich and prosperous.

"My lords, my master is here to invite you." The servant came out and stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation.

Bai Yixing and Xue Guang walked inside one after the other.

When they arrived, Zhou Chen was sitting in the study drinking tea, while Wu Lingyun and Shiyi were waiting on the side.

"I've met Your Highness, all blessings, Your Highness." Bai Yixing bowed to Xue Guangxing.

This is the rule.

When two insignificant local officials met the current prince for the first time, they naturally had to salute.

Zhou Chen drank his tea leisurely, and didn't ask them to get up, but asked: "Master Bai is the governor of Longzhou, I don't know what he is doing in Wushan."

Bai Yixing didn't dare to look up, stared at the floor, and said respectfully: "My subordinates are here to handle business in Wushan, and I happen to know that His Highness is in Wushan, so I'm here to pay my respects."

"Business?" Zhou Chen asked unhurriedly: "What business is there, and I want you to go there in person?"

He was talking to Bai Yixing from beginning to end, ignoring Xue Guang at all.

Xue Guang has been pampered all these years, and no one dares to embarrass him so much.He knelt on the cold floor, and within half a moment he couldn't bear it anymore.

Hearing Zhou Chen's question, he immediately raised his head and said, "Your Highness, Lord Bai's trip to Wushan is precisely for the mob rape case."

Zhou Chen glanced at him, and the cup was placed heavily on the table, making no sound.

"Although Mr. Xue is only a local official, he still has to understand the rules he should know." Zhou Chen's tone was sullen and slightly cold, like the cold rain falling on his body and freezing him to death.

Although Xue Guang was a little annoyed in his heart, he still said cautiously: "Your Highness, please give me some advice."

Zhou Chen smiled lightly and stopped talking.

Wu Lingyun spoke at the right time, but with a sense of reprimand, "I don't blame Mr. Xue, after all, you are the vacancy on top of Mr. Jia, and you can't be regarded as an official with a serious background."

The few words he said repeatedly made Xue Guang blush.

The officials of Dazhou were selected through the imperial examination system, and the other was recommended.The latter used to account for a large proportion, but now His Majesty values ​​the imperial examination, and [-]% of the officials are elected by the imperial examination, which is also a fresh blood.

As for Xue Guang, he was originally just a small official of the eighth rank in the county government.Although he is domineering, he has no official position after all.After Jia Lian was escorted to Chang'an, he immediately replaced him, so Wu Lingyun said that his background was wrong.

The silence at this moment made Xue Guang feel embarrassed and angry beyond words.

Seeing that the fire was coming, Wu Lingyun continued: "In the future, my lord must remember that your Highness didn't let you speak, so be sure to keep quiet. At least you are a county magistrate, so you should know some rules."

"The lower official knows..." Xue Guang could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach at this time, almost gritting his teeth and saying it.

Zhou Chen ignored him, and just ordered: "This king came to Wushan for this purpose. Since we have met, Master Bai will assist this king to handle the case together."

"I would like to follow His Highness's instructions." Bai Yixing said.

Only then did Zhou Chen turn his gaze to Xue Guang and ask, "Why are you here?"

Xue Guang originally set up a banquet to invite Zhou Chen, but after such a commotion, he lost his mind, so he just said: "I heard that His Highness was blackmailed by the city guard when he entered the city, so I specially brought those two People with blind eyes come to plead guilty to His Highness."

"The person has already brought?" Zhou Chen raised his eyes slightly.

Xue Guang thought that Zhou Chen would appreciate him, so he immediately said: "Reporting to Your Highness, those two people are already in the courtyard."

Without saying a word, Zhou Chen immediately got up and went out to look.

The rest followed suit.

It was snowing heavily outside, and there were two naked people lying on the ground.

Covered in blood, dying.

Red blood, white snow, looks extraordinarily dazzling.

"Dead?" Zhou Chen asked.

Xue Guang immediately said: "I'm not dead, I'm waiting for His Highness to let me know."

Zhou Chen said with an indifferent expression: "Master Xue has already achieved this level, so I don't need to do it."

He ignored Xue Guang, turned around and went in.

Wu Lingyun followed Eleven and closed the door behind them.

Xue Guang stared at the two half-dead people in the snow, and said blankly: "What does this mean, Your Highness? Did I do something wrong?"

Bai Yixing patted Xue Guang's shoulder, sighed and asked, "Do you know how famous this Highness is in Chang'an?"

"Brother Bai give advice." Xue Guang asked immediately.

Bai Yixing smiled wryly, "The weather is uncertain and unpredictable."

Xue Guang felt dizzy all of a sudden, and immediately said: "Your Excellency sent Brother Bai to help me, you must mention me more, and send this ancestor away quickly."

"Let's go, go have a drink first, and talk while drinking." At this time, Bai Yixing nodded his head, but when he passed the two people in the snow, he seemed to say casually: "These two people should be taken back for treatment first." Let's talk about it, who knows what His Highness's attitude is now."

Xue Guang immediately nodded, "It's all up to Brother Bai."

The previous arrogance was suppressed by Zhou Chen in an instant, and there was nothing left.

……

After taking them away, Chang Sheng and Xi Xin came out from the corner.

"Master Xue is cruel enough." Xi Xin raised her eyes to see that the ground was still dripping with blood.

Chang Sheng said with a cold face, "He will pay back these blood debts."

"Well, as long as this matter is resolved as soon as possible." Carefully sighed.

When they knocked on the door and entered, Zhou Chen and Wu Lingyun were discussing how to get it.

There is a saying that if you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get a tiger cub.If you want to know where the stolen money is hidden, you need to start with two points.

Zhou Chen said eloquently, "First, Gu Changsheng went to Xue Guang to find out. Second, he naturally started from Zhao Qiran."

Xue Guang was the person involved, while Zhao Qiran was the one who provoked it.Once these two are dealt with, the rest will be solved.
