Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

"Pfft!"

Wu Shen's legs were as soft as noodles and he fell to the ground.

Who! Who is this?

My meeting with Hun De Hou was very secret, how could anyone know about it?

Suddenly Wu Shen thought of Daqian’s inner guards. The legendary inner guards were omniscient and omnipotent, and there was nothing they didn’t know, whether in heaven or on earth.

When Dai Viet learned about the Internal Guard, it even mobilized a lot of manpower to investigate. Unfortunately, it found nothing about this Internal Guard.

No one knows where it came from, how many people are involved, or even whether the internal guard is an official in the Dai Viet court.

This was also part of the reason why the Dai Viet emperor's suspicion became more and more serious.

He had learned a lesson from the omniscient internal guard, and sweat was pouring down Wu Shen's forehead.

His lips trembled as he tried to say something, but he was so frightened that he couldn't utter a single word.

[Hahahaha... This Wu Shen really tried his best to see Hun De Hou. He actually wore women's clothes and disguised himself as a singing girl to enter Hun De Hou's mansion. And he can really sing, otherwise he wouldn't be able to enter Hun De Hou's mansion. The song he sang was something like "Hand-held Golden Shoes, I Will Pity You."]

[Hahaha... I don't know what Hun De Hou felt when hearing him sing "Jiao Jun Zi Yi Lian" to a grown man, hahaha...]

"Ahem..."

The left prime minister bit his cheek.

As a representative of Daqian officials, he could not even laugh at this moment.

He didn't smile, but his whole face was distorted.

Xie Guohua looked around in confusion. What happened to the court of Daqian?

As if a blessing had come to his mind, Xie Guohua walked around Wu Shen on the ground and said, "Your Majesty! I want to impeach Wu Shen for secretly contacting Hun Dehou and attempting to restore the country! This person is a treacherous villain who is best at playing both sides. Please investigate carefully, Your Majesty."

Wu Shen wanted to scold Xie Guohua for wrongly accusing him, but before he could say anything, Emperor Xuan said calmly,

"Pull it down!"

The Imperial Guards quickly appeared and pulled the frightened Wu Shen away.

Then, at his son's signal, Xie Guohua quietly retreated back to the team of court officials.

Xie Chengwu asked his father with a smile: "Surprised or not?"

Xie Guohua pinched his son's cheek.

"Surprise? What surprise? I think it's more like a shock."

Emperor Xuan, who was standing above, looked at the trembling new officials among the Daqian officials, and suddenly felt relieved that he did not have a handsome appearance.

Let the character collapse!

It would be nice if there were another group of officials in the court who would give him the same headaches as he did.

Emperor Xuan raised his eyebrows, and an idea came to his mind.

Today is the first time we meet, so let me give you a greeting gift.

"Is Xie Xu, the head of the Ministry of Rites, here?"

When Xie Xu saw Wu Shen being dragged away, his legs went limp. Was it too early to settle accounts with him now?

Seeing Xie Xu like this, the official next to him patted him on the shoulder and said, "Remember! Don't say anything or laugh when you hear anything later."

Xie Xu stood up dizzy and knelt down to salute.

Finally, Emperor Xuan only asked: "Thank you, sir, are you used to coming to Daqian?"

Xie Xu: “????”

Are you, the imperial court of Daqian, sick? You scare people to death, and in the end you just ask them whether they are used to it or not.

The speechless look on Xie Xu's face was so obvious that Emperor Xuan even felt a little embarrassed.

Xie Xu could only answer dizzily: "I am used to it!"

Officials of Daqian: What's the big deal now? The real show will begin soon.

[Xie Xu, the former governor of Chongzhou, was born in a poor family. When I heard the surname Xie, I subconsciously thought he was from an aristocratic family.]

[This Xie Xu is also a strange official. You can say he loves money! He really does love money. He will never refuse any gift. He dares to accept any gift from anyone.]

[But he never did anything. He was always giving but never getting anything in return. Those who gave him gifts were cheated countless times by him, and gradually no one gave him gifts anymore.]

[Just like when the younger brother of the favorite concubine of Dayue wanted to enclose a piece of land in Chongzhou as a horse farm, and asked Xie Xu to turn a blind eye to it, Xie Xu accepted a box of fine ink and a set of expensive glass hairpins, and readily agreed.]

[Then when the concubine's brother was encircling the land, he led people to capture the concubine's brother, and asked the concubine's family to "pick him up". He stopped the concubine's brother from making mistakes, so he should be thanked. He did not impeach the concubine's brother for the concubine's sake, so he should be thanked! In the end, the concubine's family gave Xie Xu 10,000 taels of silver as a thank you.]

[Later, the concubine's brother came to trouble Xie Xu, and Xie Xu stiffened his neck and said, "When did you give me a gift? Who can prove it?"]

[The concubine's younger brother: "My servant." "Since he is your servant, I will naturally side with you." Xie Xu refused to admit it, and the concubine's younger brother was so angry that he slapped himself. ]

[Xie Xu was also thanked profusely by the people whose land was enclosed...]

[Hehehe... So the dealer takes all the spoils, and Xie Xu gets all the benefits.]

[This is called a gentleman with talent who obtains it in a proper way, hahahaha...]

Xu Jinyu also likes such corrupt officials, they are so corrupt to her heart.

Daqian official: Hmm~~~

There is such a way to accept bribes!

The officials of Daqian seemed to have opened the door to a new world.

Otherwise they also...

Xie Xu's face turned suspiciously red under the incredulous gazes of the officials.

It was the first time he was praised.

In the past, apart from the people being grateful to me, all I heard was that I was greedy, only taking in but not giving out, and that I was worthy of being born in a poor family... etc. etc.~~~

Xie Xu's lips moved, wanting to thank the person who spoke.

But after looking at the people around him, he saw that no one responded to the speaker. Then he remembered the warning from his colleagues before he came out, so he closed his mouth tightly.

[Xie Xuzi's reputation in the Da Yue officialdom was ruined, and he had no source of income. He came to Daqian and wanted to make some money while everyone was still unaware of his reputation.]

Emperor Xuan could not help but raise his eyebrows. He might disappoint Lord Xie. Currently, Daqian had no habit of bribery, and was forced by Xu Jinyu not to dare to give gifts.

Whoever showed up would be targeted by Xu Jinyu, and a group of corrupt officials were forced to become extremely honest by Xu Jinyu.

"Thank you, my dear. You'll get used to it. Just do your best."

You do a good job!

The meaning of these four words made Xie Xu feel like spring breeze.

His Majesty means that if you work hard, you will be promoted.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

This thank you was said sincerely. Normally, a surrendered official like him would not be given an important position and would just waste the rest of his life.

He didn't expect such a pleasant surprise. He was very grateful for the voice, although he didn't know who the voice belonged to.

Just when I was happy, this voice came,

[Hehehe...Xie Xu probably needs to speed up his money-making process. His wife just bought a fist-sized colored glaze peony crown, which is worth one thousand taels of silver.]

Xie Xu's lips trembled and his eyes were filled with fear.
