Xiao Qinghuan

At this time, Jiang Xiaohan was sitting in the lobby of the Pingjiang government office.

With a soft stool under his feet, Jiang Xiaohan sat lazily behind the koan, skimming the froth in the bowl with tea lids.

I don't know if it's because of Yan Qing's absence, but Jiang Xiaohan seemed even more unkind than usual, and his deliberate restraint was no longer suppressed, and his whole body was full of elegance and dignity.

The color of Biluochun soup is clear, and the leaves are stretched. You don't need to drink it to know that it is the best tea.

Jiang Xiaohan sipped his tea with lowered eyes, put the tea bowl on the table expressionlessly, and knocked the tea lid on the edge of the bowl, making a crisp sound.

The arresting yamen servant who was kneeling in the hall heard a shock, and lowered his body a little more in a panic.

It was still early, and Wen Zui hadn't gotten up yet when Pingjiang City was in trouble.The head catcher didn't dare to quarrel with him, so he could only talk about taking down the troublemaker first.

The villagers were suffering from a serious illness, and the policemen did not dare to take it into the government office, so they could only cover their mouths and drag them to the abandoned work shed at the base of the city wall.This time and again wasted effort, so that when Jiang Xiaohan entered the room, Wen Zui was still sleeping in a dream and didn't realize it.

Wei Shen was standing under the hall on his right. The soldiers of the Shenwei Battalion hidden in the city had also changed back to light armor at this time, and surrounded the front and rear gates of the Pingjiang government office.

Although Wen Zui's cronies wanted to report a letter, but the nursing home of an ordinary official's house is no match for the emperor's guards. In the backyard, several of Wen Zui's cronies were tied up, and then someone was assigned to inform Wen Zui.

"Mr. Wen is so stylish." Jiang Xiaohan buttoned the table, and then said lightly: "The aroma of this tea soup is about to dissipate, and Mr. Wen has not come yet."

This is pure nonsense, the cup of tea in his hand has just been served, Biluochun tastes sweet, and the eight cents hot tea is just the right time to drink, where does the fragrance come from?

Wei Shen knew that he was in a bad mood right now, so he naturally didn't touch his bad luck, and stood silently in the hall, dedicated to his duty as a dumb guard.

But Wen Zui's cronies obviously didn't know Jiang Xiaohan well enough, these big figures who were usually domineering were all suppressed by gambling, and they all dared to speak out when they heard the words.Not to mention that Jiang Xiaohan entered the lord's office with the momentum of thunder, he even brought his own guards with him, which really caught them by surprise.This group of people has been with Wen Zui for many years, and anyone who meets them in the Pingjiang territory will give three points of favor.Being so humiliated by Jiang Xiaohan today, how could he swallow this bad breath.

Wen Zhong was the first to bear the brunt, his face flushed red, he clenched the cloth hair in his mouth and let out a humming sound.

"Oh, Manager Wen." Jiang Xiaohan didn't bother to look him in the eye, kicked the soft stool closer, changed into a comfortable posture, and then asked slowly: "Do you have something to say?"

Wen Zhong let out two ugly roars.

Jiang Xiaohan was noncommittal, and raised his hand towards the hall.Seeing this, the soldiers around Wei Shen stepped forward and pulled the cloth scarf from Wen Zhong's mouth.

"Master Jiang." Wen Zhong took a deep breath: "It would be too rude to act like this without my master's permission, even if you are the left minister."

Jiang Xiaohan looked at him with lowered eyes, without saying a word.

He didn't need to answer, the other party was just Wen Zui's servant, and he wasn't qualified enough to talk to him.

However, Wen Zhong misunderstood the meaning of silence, thinking that Jiang Xiaohan was stern, and he was only guilty at this time, so he was naturally more rampant: "My lord is here to inspect the two rivers, not to transfer. You disturb the government affairs of Pingjiang, it is inevitable—"

"To shut up--!"

Wen Zui, who came belatedly, rushed into the door, kicked Wen Zhong's back fiercely, and was kicked by the other party so that he fell to the ground.

Wen Zhong was startled, he writhed on the ground like a fat worm: "Master——"

Wen Zui glanced at him in disgust, then smiled at Jiang Xiaohan and said, "Master Jiang, what does that mean?"

In terms of official rank, Wen Zui was supposed to salute Jiang Xiaohan, and there was nothing wrong with sitting at the lower head when he was promoted, but Jiang Xiaohan didn't care about this matter with him before.

Jiang Xiaohan had only sent his personal guards to inform Wen Zui before, but now it looks like this respectable Mrs. Wen was dragged off the bed, with his outer shirt crooked and the jade pendant on his shirt loose, ready to fall at any time. fell on his feet.

Although Wen Zui felt that Jiang Xiaohan's arrival was not kind, he didn't know why.

Although he is a foreign official, he has heard of Jiang Xiaohan.This Zuoxiang is not very old, but he is very good in Beijing, as slippery as a loach, no one can touch it, but no one can offend it.

For people like them, this is really a good skill.

So if it is said that today's outing is because of the matter of chasing and killing him outside the city earlier, even Wen Zui himself would not believe it.Most of these secrets in the officialdom cannot be turned on the bright side. Even if Jiang Xiaohan knows that his people hurt him outside, he has to knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, saying that it was caused by the bad guys. for.

After all, Wen Zui was a big official, if Jiang Xiaohan really wanted to touch him, there was no high-sounding reason for him to be determined not to pass the test in Beijing.In addition, His Majesty has been seriously ill recently, and the two princes are in charge of the country. He bears the identity of the prince's family, if there are some unwarranted mistakes, then Beijing will protect him.

Thinking of this, Wen Zui felt at ease.His eyes rolled, and he quickly thought about what happened to Jiang Xiaohan recently.

After much deliberation, he couldn't come up with anything useful, so he could only carefully look at Jiang Xiaohan's face, and decided to take one step at a time.

Jiang Xiaohan turned a deaf ear and didn't ask anyone to move a seat for Wen Zui. It seemed that he was determined to break the face with him.

In fact, not only Wen Zui, but even Wei Shen found it strange that he behaved like this.

It is stated in the law of this dynasty that if a plague occurs in the territory, it is true that it is a big mistake for the officials.It is also true that the plague appeared in Liujia Village, but Wen Zui didn't notice it at all, and even allowed it to make trouble in Pingjiang City.

But Wen Zui is an important member of one party after all, even if he was caught wrong and demoted today, there is no guarantee that he will make a comeback in the future.

Jiang Xiaohan didn't look like someone who would cut his own back like this.

Wei Shen couldn't help but miss that young man whom he only met once - Jiang Xiaohan is now like a demon knife with no shackles on its edge, showing its sharpness.It seemed that the few gentle breaths on his body had dissipated along with the young man's departure.

The atmosphere in the room was awkward and weird. Jiang Xiaohan didn't say a word, but seemed to be very interested in the tea bowl, and kept reaching out to touch the enamel on the bowl, as if he couldn't put it down.

Wen Zui felt that something was wrong. When Jiang Xiaohan first came to Pingjiang, he had tested Jiang Xiaohan.Although Jiang Xiaohan took him into the army at the time, he had absolutely no intention of killing him.

But today was different, he looked at the young man in the seat, and his heart was cold - Jiang Xiaohan came here today with the intention of killing with one blow.

What happened during this period of time that he didn't know.

Wen Zui was dripping with cold sweat, he couldn't help saying: "Master Jiang..."

"There is a plague outside Pingjiang City." Jiang Xiaohan touched the warm enamel in his hand, lowered his eyes and said, "After more than half a month of trouble, the people went to the city to cry for grievances. Don't Mr. Wen know?"

Wen Zui was startled: "This—"

"Master Wen doesn't know about it." Jiang Xiaohan said: "Master Wen is always busy with everything, how can such trivial matters pollute your ears."

"No, no, no." Wen Zui said hastily: "This may be a misunderstanding. The incident happened suddenly, and the subordinate officials have not had time to report it. It is unknown. The subordinate officials must deal with it as soon as possible."

"No need." Jiang Xiaohan said with a half-smile, "Since I'm sitting here, I'm here to help you solve your problems."

Wen Zui immediately felt it was ridiculous, could it be that for such a trivial matter, Jiang Xiaohan thought he could bring him down.

He seemed to want to argue a few more words, but when he looked up, he bumped into Jiang Xiaohan's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling - Jiang Xiaohan was born very well, and there was always a three-point smile in those peach blossom eyes, which made him look like that most of the time. All are casual and soft.

But at this time, the feeling from the night of the banquet came back again, which made Wen Zui's hair stand on end.

The plague was just an excuse, Wen Zui suddenly understood.

Jiang Xiaohan buttoned the teacup slowly and pushed it outward.The contents of his sleeve slipped down, revealing a corner of an indigo-blue page.

Wen Zui's face suddenly turned pale, and large drops of cold sweat flowed down his chin.

—he found out.This realization made Wen Zui feel chills all over his body, and he completely forgot all the maneuvers he had prepared.

He looked at Jiang Xiaohan with terrified eyes, as if he was looking at a smiling Hades.

Wen Zui was terrified by Jiang Xiaohan, but God knows that Master Jiang doesn't know anything.

But when it comes to pretending to be mysterious and pretending to be gods and ghosts, no one in the whole capital can compare to Jiang Xiaohan, not to mention that he is really in a bad mood today, Wen Zui bumped into him headlong, he might not be wronged if he died.

"Today's matter, I will report to the heavens." Jiang Xiaohan raised the corners of his lips, and there was no warmth in his eyes: "Please trouble Mr. Wen to take off this official uniform first, and everything will be decided by the Holy Majesty."
