  Chapter 66 Voting Certificate

  Pingkangfang, Town Fusi.

  Early in the morning, Qin Lang yawned as soon as he stepped into the Yamen, when he found that there were people in the department who had been waiting for a long time.

   "Good morning, everyone."

   "Si Cheng, it's getting late, everyone is waiting for your morning meeting." The chief bookkeeper Wei Zheng said very bluntly.

Qin Lang was a little embarrassed. The morning meeting every morning was formulated by himself as his superior. At that time, he also formulated many rules and regulations for the town and Fusi. Leaving early and so on.

   Unexpectedly, everyone obeyed, but I was late.

   "There was an urgent mission last night, which delayed my rest." Qin Lang said without blushing.

  At this moment, another chief secretary, Ma Zhou, stepped forward, "Sicheng, today the Sili transferred three new colleagues."

  Three familiar faces came forward.

  Cheap old uncle Cui Dunli, Zheng Xuanli who almost became his father-in-law, and the original boss Xu Jingzong.

  Seeing the three long beards floating over, if it wasn't for the conspicuous green robes on their bodies, Qin Lang really thought he had misunderstood the person.

  Xu Jingzong stepped forward with some embarrassment, "I pay my respects to Qin Sicheng!"

   "Mr. Xu, what does this mean?"

   "Your Majesty was disrespectful before, was impeached by the imperial censor, and relegated to the post of chief governor of the town." Xu Jingzong said helplessly.

"Does the Zhenfu Division have a long history?" Qin Lang was surprised. Xu Jingzong was an eighteenth scholar of the Qin Palace before the coup. In order to inspect the school and govern the central government of Yongzhou, he presided over the government affairs of more than 20 counties in Yongzhou. Why is he still relegated to the Fusi of his town now?

"It's a long story. Xu will be Si Cheng's subordinate in the future, and I hope Si Cheng will take care of him." Although Xu Jingzong was a little embarrassed standing in front of Qin Lang's former subordinate, he was still worthy of it. He is a ruthless person who can put it down, and his posture is very low.

Then Cui Dunli and Zheng Xuanli also came up to meet the ceremony. One was originally Zhongshu Tongshisheren, and the other was under the door. He was granted the title of Zuo Sima, and Zheng Xuanli was awarded the title of Right Sima.

  There was no long history and Sima in Zhen Fusi, but now these three people are newly appointed.

  When Cui Dunbai met Qin Lang, his expression was stiff and ugly. Zheng Xuanli had a flattering smile on his face, like a rambunctious dog.

  Qin Lang had a headache. He knew that these three people were stuffed in by Li Shimin, so they must have been mixed with sand. It was said before that the Zhenfu Division was completely entrusted to him to set up, and he was asked to recruit subordinate officials and subordinates, but three people were sent here in a blink of an eye.

Everyone is not small. Xu Jingzong was the son of the servant of the former dynasty. He passed the examination as a scholar and served as the state secretary. .

  Two Cui Zhengs are even more unusual. Both are sons of the five surnames, and both have held important positions in the three provinces.

   "Let's have a routine morning meeting."

  Qin Lang was quite polite to Xu Jingzong. After all, although this guy was a bit treacherous before, he still took good care of him. But there is nothing polite to Cui and Zheng, and they are also cold-faced.

  It turned out that the Daxiong Palace had been tidied up and changed into the Zhenfu Division's meeting hall.

   Some officials had prepared new cushions for the three new officials.

  Everyone took off their shoes and entered the hall, and then everyone sat down in order of position.

  There are no chairs in the hall, just kneel and sit on the futon.

   "A new colleague is here today, so let's all introduce ourselves. My ancestral home is Licheng, Qizhou, my name is Qin Lang, my name is Huailiang, and I am Sicheng, the governor of Zhenfu." Qin Lang took the lead.

   "Hangzhou Xincheng Xu Jingzong, with the name of Yan family, Gaoyang Xu family, and the history of the chief of the town."

   "The No. 1 gentry in the north, the Boling Cui family, Cui Dunli! The town governor Zuo Sima."

   "Shandong gentry leader Xingyang Zheng family, Zheng Xuanli! Zhen Fusi You Sima."

  When Cui and Zheng introduced themselves, they both claimed that their clan was the number one noble clan.

  ······

   "Okay, now that everyone has introduced themselves, let's work together and work together."

  Qin Lang ignored the two people arguing about their family names.

"Everyone report the progress of the work you are in charge of. Lao Liu, how many people have you recruited for your action team? Lao Zhao, how is the construction of your prison over there? Have you found the guards and the guy in charge of interrogation? Lao Zhang, at the logistics equipment department, have you reported the equipment we need, and have you approved it?"

   "Old Wei, how much has the recruitment of hidden informants on your side developed, and how big has the cobweb stretched?"

  ······

  Wei Chang, Liu Jiu and others made brief reports one by one, explaining the progress.

"Overall, it's pretty good. The first task of our Zhenfu Division was completed yesterday. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very satisfied. He specially bestowed Qian Baiguan, Ten Altars of Royal Wine, and Mi Baishi. Master Ma will be in charge of distributing them to everyone later. go down."

   "Everyone, now the second mission is coming..."

  The morning meeting is over.

  Qin Lang called Zheng Xuanli and Cui Dunli to his private room.

  He put a bottle of wine on the table.

   "This is the poisoned wine given by His Royal Highness, you take it."

  As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Cui Dunli and Zheng Xuanli changed drastically.

  Qin Lang deliberately sat there watching them panic for a long time, and then said, "You two have misunderstood, this poisonous wine is not for you to drink, but for others to drink."

  Cui Dunli glared at Qin Lang angrily, "Why didn't Si Cheng say it earlier?"

   Zheng Xuanli was also there wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

   "This is a task for the two of you, I hope you can complete it satisfactorily without any mistakes."

   After some explanation, Qin Lang ordered the two of them to kill Julu Wang Chengyi with poison.

   "Why don't Si Cheng leave this matter to other people?" Cui Dunli was unwilling.

  Zheng Xuanli didn't want to pick it up even more, since King Julu is still his nephew.

"As you saw just now, all colleagues have missions, not to mention that our Zhenfu Division has already received a second mission, and no one is free. Besides, since the two of you have come to work in this division, this After handing over the errand, do you still have to pick and choose? Or do you need me to report to His Royal Highness that you are unwilling to work in the Zhenfu Department?"

'Also, this matter was sent to you, in fact, to help you, you were the ones who abolished the prince, and now you have killed the Julu King with your own hands, then this is your certificate of honor, and the new prince will naturally be able to truly trust him in the future You guys, don't you understand? '

  The two of them were originally degraded by Li Shimin's disgust, so how dare Qin Lang go to the prince to sue.

   Now that Qin Lang said that this was a certificate of merit, the two were taken aback.

   "I just think that this kind of dirty work can be handed over to a small official." Zheng Xuanli said flatteringly, he still didn't want to get his hands dirty.

   "This is a major event that His Royal Highness is personally concerned about, so I specially entrusted it to you two. Don't disappoint the high expectations of His Royal Highness and the Prime Minister."

  Qin Lang let Cui Dunli go out first, leaving Zheng Xuanli alone.

  Zheng Xuanli was a little embarrassed facing Qin Lang alone. After all, Qin Lang had rejected his daughter's marriage twice, and he had once hated Qin Lang. Who would have expected that the situation would change now, and he would have to rely on the children of the Qin family.

   "Sanlang, I have offended you so much before, I hope you will forgive me."

"Zheng Sima, I invite you to stay because there are other things. There is nothing to mention about the past." Qin Lang looked at Zheng Xuanli. The same begs for mercy. Perhaps in front of ordinary scholars and common people, they still have the unattainable image of aristocratic and famous families, but Qin Lang knows their details, and now that he has lost the attachment of the prince, he is panicking like a bereaved dog.

   "Zheng Shisanniang is now at my house." Qin Lang said slowly.

   Zheng Xuanli was stunned for a moment, and then actually laughed.

   "If Saburo doesn't dislike the little girl, let her stay on your bed and make up the quilt."

   "Zheng Sima missed it. I didn't kidnap Zheng Shisanniang. Do you know how Julu Wang Ben Sicheng found it? It was Zheng Shisanniang who brought it to my house."

   Zheng Xuanli was at a loss.

   "It seems that the girl understands righteousness, and knows that righteousness kills relatives."

"Haha, on the contrary, she took Julu Wangdong to hide in my house by accident." Qin Lang looked at Zheng Xuanli with some disdain. weak.

   "I told you this today because I want to tell you that Zheng Shisanniang is staying at my house for the time being. She is a good person so don't worry and don't have to look for him. I'll send him back to your house in a few days."

   Zheng Xuanli is obsequious.

  Although I have all kinds of doubts in my heart, I dare not ask them face to face.

   "Okay, Zheng Sima, go to work, and let me know when you're done."

  Qin Lang waved his hand and sent Zheng Xuanli away.

   Sitting alone in the room, Qin Lang didn't know whether he was doing right or wrong. He didn't know why he would hide the news of Princess Wenxi from Li Shimin, but at that time, he thought it should be so.

  He couldn't save Li Chengyi, but Li Wanshun was just a little girl.

  As for why Zheng Shisanniang should be protected and not handed over, it might just be a momentary emotion, and I can't say why.

   Sitting alone in the office has no other intentions.

   Until the door was knocked.

  Cui Dunli and Zheng Xuanli came in to return to their orders. They had made Chengyi drink poisoned wine.

   "Huang Lushi has experience in joining the army."

  Cui Dunli handed over a form, and Ah Huang's signature was indeed on it.

  A simple piece of paper, a fresh life is gone.

  Qin Lang felt a little heavy.

  I feel that the child died innocently and pitifully.

   "Okay, got it."

  He looked at the two of them, and saw that there was no expression on their faces, and Zheng Xuanli, Chengyi's cousin, also showed no signs of grief, which made him very unhappy.

"Zheng Sima, Cui Sima, I'm sorry. This is a pardon for Xie Shufang, Xue Wanche and others. You have to work hard again, go to Zhongnan Mountain, find Xie Xue and others, and read His Highness's pardon to them. They descend immediately."

   Zheng and Cui looked at each other.

   "Sicheng, I heard that Xie Xue and others led the defeated soldiers and now occupy the mountain in Zhongnan Mountain as the king. They have become bandits. Those who went to persuade them to surrender were **** and none of them came back."

   "So?" Qin Lang asked.

   "So the subordinates feel that Xie Xue and others have no intention of accepting the recruitment."

   "Aren't you thanking Xue and others, how do you know what you mean by thanking Xue? Or are you afraid to go?"

  The two looked embarrassed.

"This is the order of the Prime Minister of the Sisi. Please obey it. Tell the two of you that the Zhenfusi is not an ordinary yamen. This is a yamen that directly belongs to His Highness. It follows military laws and military orders. The consequences of disobedience to the military orders, the second You must know that too."

   Now the two of them could only accept the order with constipated faces, and walked out of the room with heavy steps.

  Seeing their heavy and troubled appearances, Qin Lang's rare mood eased a lot.

  Damn, this is the charming taste of power.

  Cui Dunli, who reprimanded him before, and Zheng Xuanli, who despised him, can only obediently obey him now, not even daring to refute.

   Alas, power makes people obsessed, and it is also easy to make people perverted.
