After the father of the subjugated country secretly read my heart, he became angry.

The emperor waved his sleeves, let the guard at the door come in, and whispered instructions to him.

"Let's go, all elders, set out with me! Let's see how Master Hong completes the mission I gave him!"

Hong Xing's theatrical tears were still stuck on his face. Hearing this, he was stunned, with a trace of panic flashing in his eyes.

But soon he gritted his teeth and raised his head, standing up with neither humility nor arrogance, "I have no regrets in my heart!"

impossible.

It is impossible for the emperor to know how he worked as an errand before.

He has been really busy these three days with the pig-raising job, and there is nothing unsatisfactory.

The last time he went to have a private meeting with Wai Shi during his business hours was seven days ago.

How could the emperor know what happened seven days ago, and how could it only happen today?

The more Hong Xing thought about it, the more certain he became.

Moreover, his young man has a very strict mouth, and the maid in the outer room does not know who he is and will not reveal his secrets.

What's more, Xiao Yunzhou has been busy recently, entertaining envoys, messing with the prince's schedule, and making prescriptions for the plague. He, the emperor, has been busy.

How can I have the time to pay attention to myself? !

Do you still know where your outer room is hidden?

Haha, not even his jealous and suspicious wife knows anything about it!

Hong Xing thought about it again and felt confident, "Your Majesty, Mr. Pavilion, I am not afraid of investigation!"

Several pavilion elders instantly nodded sympathetically and looked at the emperor with expressions like 'Emperor, you are making such a fuss and are unjustly accusing me'.

"Your Majesty, Hong Xing has always done his best as an official. You should remember that during the Jiaguan War last year, it was Hong Xing who was responsible for supervising the army."

Hong Xing breathed a sigh of relief.

He usually wipes his butt fairly cleanly, and he doesn't do his job very well, but he gets by with it.

Xiao Yunzhou rolled his eyes, looking at this group of 'dull' cabinet ministers, and got on the sedan without saying a word.

"It's no use talking anymore, let's set off."

Soon the emperor left the palace incognito, and along with the ministers who had changed into casual clothes, they walked on a path from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to Jingzhao Mansion.

The one who led the way was the guard that the emperor had called in to whisper.

Speechless all the way.

But as Hong Xing walked, his eyelids twitched as he looked at the familiar road.

But he was still calm, "Your Majesty, in order to save time and benefit the people, I always prefer to take the small road and reach Jingzhao Mansion faster. Many times, I have talked at length with the governor of Jingzhao Mansion late at night. "

Xiao Yunzhou narrowed his eyes. Are there any accomplices?

He chuckled at Hong Xing.

Hong Xing: "..."

Somehow, his palms started to get sweaty.

The emperor's sedan chair quickly arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, but the emperor did not make a sound and the sedan carriage continued to pass through the back streets of Jingzhao Mansion.

"Your Majesty—" Hong Xing's legs finally trembled when he saw the familiar red-walled courtyard after turning the corner!

Xiao Yunzhou raised his hand and the sedan stopped in front of the small red-walled courtyard.

The guards on both sides stuffed the handkerchief into Hong Xing's mouth, and dragged Hong Xing in when they realized something was wrong, as if carrying a chicken.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty..." The cabinet ministers were all shocked.

"Where is this?"

"What does this mean..."

Xiao Yunzhou made a gesture of silence towards them and took the lead to walk forward quietly.

Soon they walked to the small red-walled courtyard and heard the whispers of several maids.

"The young master hasn't come to see our girl for several days."

"I guess the young master is delayed by something, but he may come today. He used to come to accompany our girl on odd-numbered days of the first, third, fifth, seventh, and ninth every month, rain or shine. "

Xiao Yunzhou stopped.

Several pavilion elders behind him turned their heads in shock and looked at Hong Xing behind him who was already pale and unable to speak!

At the end of every odd-numbered day, all the court ministers are on duty!

After the morning meeting, have lunch, and then rush to their respective yamen and errand offices for duty.

The censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are more flexible, because they cannot supervise officials while sitting in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. They often visit the places where the subjects of supervision are on duty.

This guy Hong Xing, is he using his power for personal gain and not paying attention? !

Mr. Fuchage was speechless.

Hong Xing, whose mouth was gagged with a handkerchief, shook his head wildly and struggled to deny it!

But soon his dream of escape was shattered.

The two talking maids in the small red-walled courtyard had already walked out from behind the screen wall.

When the maid saw the tied up Hong Xing, she was shocked and said, "Master?! What's wrong with you!?"

"You haven't been here for seven days. Are you kidnapped, sir?"

Idiot harmed him!

Hong Xing was so angry that everything went dark before his eyes.

He looked at Xiao Yunzhou and the cabinet who had just spoken for him in fear.

He knelt down in an instant and kowtowed to the ground.

Xiao Yunzhou sneered, "It turns out that the young master who arrived here on an odd number of days is our Lord Hong."

"Yeah, I thought I heard it wrong just now. Isn't this the time when officials are on duty?"

"Your Majesty—" Hong Xing rubbed the handkerchief in his mouth on the rock, and dropped it for a moment before speaking hastily, "I was wrong!"

"I was confused for a moment, but I swear, I will handle all the errands you give me!"

"I will never dare to do that again! Your Majesty——"

"Have you done all your errands well?"

Xiao Yunzhou narrowed his eyes and turned to a group of cabinet ministers who were watching the show.

"Mr. Fuchage, just now Hong Xing asked you to judge, and now I will ask you to judge too."

He looked at the maid next to him and said, "Tell me, how does this young master take care of you girls? His thirteenth outer room."

The maid was frightened.

Hong Xing's eyes were about to burst.

How did the emperor know that this was his thirteenth outer chamber?

So precise?

He didn't even count it himself!

Hong Xing's mind was shaken, and what made him break out in a cold sweat was that he recalled that this was really the thirteenth woman he had raised outside...

Halfway through, he almost missed one person who died of illness after only a month of care!

汏！

The emperor knows his situation better than he does! ?

Hong Xing's face was as white as paper and his lips were trembling!

The elders next to him were also shocked. The emperor's spy not only penetrated deeply into the envoy post and knew the price of other people's war horses, but also entered the golden room where the officials hid their treasures...?

"I have always wanted to give you a chance."

Xiao Yunzhou turned half sideways and pretended to be cool again.

"I want you to do your job well, that's why I haven't exposed you."

"As a result, Hong Xing, you are too cold to the hearts of the people."

"The pigs that ordinary people value more than their lives, in your eyes, are not as good as your thirteenth outer room."

"???"

"..."

"???"

The cabinet ministers were in disarray in the wind.

Wait, what kind of metaphor is this, Emperor?

ah? They were a little confused for a moment.

Xiao Yunzhou didn't need the maid to tell him, he warned the fairy about Little Princess in one breath.

"Hong Xing, your outer room consumes one pound of bird's nests and fifty taels of ginseng Yangrong pills every day, and you only drink mountain spring water that takes four hours of transportation."

"Where did you get the money to support your wife?"

"Is it coming from the common people?"

"If you spend one point on the sows and piglets that seem to be the lives of the people, at least one more people will be able to live a good year, and one more people will be able to eat a mouthful of pork."

"Hong Xing, you chill me and the people so much!"

Sweat rolled down Hong Xing's forehead.

The emperor knew it in too much detail!

He found someone to buy the Rong Yang Pills he ate in the outer room at a low price, and the emperor even reported the exact amount of fifty taels a day!

terrible!

Listening to the deafening emperor's voice, Hong Xing was really frightened and regretful!

If you had raised pigs well back then, instead of being a good errand, why would you be like this today!

Hong Xing lowered his head in regret.

"You can yell at me all you want, but I will still tolerate you because of your age."

Xiao Yunzhou clasped his hands behind his back. As he spoke, his eyes moved from Hong Xing to the several chief ministers.

"..."

The older cabinet ministers all felt cold.

"But the people eat soup, and you eat ginseng."

"I can't bear it!"

"Today, Hong Xing, I will let you die clearly!"

"The technique of raising piglets that you didn't understand in three days, I figured it out!"

"You should cherish the people's pigs as much as your wives and concubines."

Hong Xing was stunned.

Xiao Yunzhou pretended to be brave and turned around, "If you come, I will serve you with pen and ink!"

"I said, you write!"

"Before giving birth, we select and breed healthy and meaty boars..."

“During farrowing, the sow’s feed should be rich in essence but not in excess...keep the pig pen clean.”

"After giving birth, monitor the sow's milk and body for disease, observe the situation, and check the piglets."

"Piglet feed..."

The more the cabinet ministers listened, the more they opened their mouths.

Hong Xing turned pale, and then burst into tears.

It turns out that the reason for being an errand is hidden in his experience in taking care of the outer room!

He doesn’t know because he has no care for the people!

But now, he has no chance anymore.

"Hong Xing, you have neglected your duties. You don't understand such a simple principle of raising pigs, but you are plundering people's wealth and wealth. From now on, your family property will be confiscated and you will be sent to the army for three thousand miles!"
