The new county governor's office was already filled with common people and students who had come here after hearing the news. Among them, a group of eight young men wearing the Taoist robes of Dongzhou Fengyan Academy were particularly eye-catching.

Everyone was also waiting for Xiao Zhixing to show up.

[Yellow barrage: Here it comes, here it comes, the walking idiom allusion is here again...]

[Yellow barrage: Laughing and crying, every time our prince is provoked, it is a famous scene. ]

[Red Barrage: These words from Xiang Ganti cannot be underestimated. If they are not handled properly, Xiao Zhixing will really become a traitor and his reputation will be damaged. Beizhou is in the process of development and cannot be affected by this.]

【Green barrage: In ancient times, the king was the leader of the ministers, and loyalty was more important than anything else. If you are disloyal, no matter how many good things you do, you can’t save your reputation. 】

[Red barrage: Who does Xiang Gan work for? Is there someone behind this? ]

[Yellow barrage: He is not someone's man, he represents some people who have the same idea as him, look at those old men kneeling behind him, they are all like him. ]

[Red Barrage: That’s why this is a tricky matter. They say they are fighting for the sake of the world and for the prosperity of the country. They are loyal and unyielding people. You can’t just kill them with one blow.]

【Green barrage: Tsk, Xiao Zhixing has to protect them for a while, otherwise if something happens to them, there will be rumors that she killed people out of anger.】

At this time, Xiao Zhixing came out with everyone who was attending the meeting, and two guards behind her were carrying the prince's throne.

The other two guards... were carrying a long board made of golden sandalwood.

"Master Xiang, I am a little slow here, not because I feel guilty, but because I am looking for something."

Xiao Zhixing sat down leisurely and looked around the room, his face calm and composed, "I like to argue and I cannot stand any grievances. Since you are so loyal to the country and want to question me, I will personally have a good talk with you today."

She reached out and easily took the several-meter-long wooden board, cut a section three palms long and held it in her hand, and began to carve on it using her fingers as a knife.

"We need to analyze specific problems specifically. You ask the questions and I will answer them. Please start." She said, glancing at the people behind Xiang Gan.

Xiang Gan was so angry at her behavior that his beard flew upside down. He turned over the tablet in his arms and raised it high, shouting, "Okay, today, in front of the late emperor's spirit tablet, let this humble official ask you for clarification!"

wow——

Everyone was in an uproar. They didn't expect that what he was holding was the tablet of Xiao Yuzhen, the last emperor of Yin Dynasty!

This move is disgusting enough.

Now, not only officials in the court and the world, but also ordinary people have gradually heard the news and know that Xiao Zhixing is most likely Xiao Yan's daughter.

It’s just that Xiao Zhixing didn’t admit it himself, and everyone knows the matter and keeps it a secret.

But it is basically confirmed that she is indeed the orthodox bloodline of the Yin Dynasty.

Xiang Gan used her grandfather's tablet to interrogate her, which is a sinful act.

Everyone looked at Xiao Zhixing's expression.

Xiao Zhixing had no expression on his face. He carved the board quickly in his hand and urged Xiang Gan, "Stop talking nonsense and ask."

Xiang Gan's face was serious. "Okay! I dare to ask you, Your Majesty, do you want to kill Xiao Xing, the magistrate of Heiwu County?"

Xiao Zhixing raised his eyelids slightly, "Xiao Xing colluded with the rebels to hide weapons, and joined hands with the bandits to wreak havoc on the countryside. Li Sandi accidentally discovered his crimes and risked his life to report the matter to me. Facing such a vicious person, if I let him live and turn a blind eye to him, how can I be worthy of your majesty's deep affection and high hopes and my own conscience?"

Xiang Gan angrily said, "Your Highness is not an official of the Ministry of Justice. What right do you have to arrest Xiao Xing? You can report him to the court and let the court deal with him. You dealt with Xiao Xing privately. Isn't this an act of usurpation?"

"Master Xiang, have you forgotten? Xiao Xing was involved in An Ziji's death, and was also involved in the Northern Barbarian spies and the incident at Guixiong Pass. Do you think I have the right to intervene?"

At this time, the board in her hand had been engraved. She even engraved patterns on it and trimmed the area around the board to create a gorgeous shape.

Everyone looked at it intently. This... is also a tablet?

Xiao Zhixing stuffed the tablet into the arms of Ji Bai who was standing next to him, and asked him to show it to everyone.

Everyone's eyes widened as they saw the words "The spirit tablet of Emperor Wen of Yin, Xiao Changji" written on it!

Everyone: ………Absolutely amazing.

Xiang Gan and the others' faces turned pale, and the tablets in their arms seemed to tremble.

Those Fengyan Academy students couldn't help but cover their mouths and try to laugh.

Xiao Zhixing cut another piece of wood and continued to carve a new tablet. He taunted Xiang Gan, "This question is over. Please continue with the next one."

Want to use Xiao Yuzhen's tablet to suppress yourself?

Wouldn’t she use the ancestors of the Yin Dynasty to suppress it?

If he has the ability, he can continue to move the tablet here.

Xiang Ganqi was having difficulty breathing, and he couldn't put down or raise the tablet in his hand.

He shivered for a while before speaking firmly: "Second question, of the ten county magistrates in Beizhou, six are your subjects. The governor of Qi County has become your subordinate and obeys your orders. The military affairs of Beizhou are in your hands. May I ask, Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"

"I am confused and worried. If things continue like this, will this Northern Province still be a prosperous Northern Province?"

Xiao Zhixing carved faster and faster, and before he finished speaking, the second sign came out.

It was the tablet of the second emperor of the Yin Dynasty, and she was holding it for Su Zhen.

She began to carve the third piece, and at the same time, she responded to Xiang Gan's words, "The appointment of officials in Beizhou is decided by the court. Your Majesty agrees, and no one can blame you. I don't bother to answer this question. If you want to accuse me of a crime, you can always find a pretext. If you can confirm that I am treasonous, then bring out the evidence. Whoever accuses me must provide the evidence. If there is no evidence, it is slander."

Xiao Zhixing sneered, "I dare to say this in front of His Majesty. I did not commit treason. No one can force me to admit it, let alone slander."

Xiang Gan was angry, "Are you disdainful or guilty? Although you haven't put your inner rebellion into practice, your various means have revealed your wolfish ambitions. I would like to ask which minister in the world dares to be as unscrupulous as you? Do you regard Beizhou as your own land?"

Bang, the third tablet was ready and handed to Xiao Bei.

The three of them didn't move, standing there as if holding a bomb, not knowing what expression to make.

Xiao Zhixing started working on the fourth area. Hearing this, he sneered, "Why wouldn't I dare? For the sake of the safety of the North, I even dared to set foot in Mengzhou and Ningzhou. I have a clear conscience!"

"Your Majesty trusts me and has never doubted me. He has entrusted the safety of the Northland to me. I feel a great sense of responsibility and am touched. But you stubborn people are trying to alienate the relationship between me and Your Majesty?"

"Xiang Gan, I also want to ask you, please answer me in front of the tablets of our ancestors with a clear conscience, do you have any selfish motives in this matter today?"

Xiao Zhixing leaned forward slightly and asked, "I dare to swear in front of all the ancestors that I, Xiao Zhixing, will never take the initiative to provoke a war or disrupt our country. Do you dare?"

But if you are forced to rebel, that is another matter.

"Tell us, my ancestors, what is your intention? Is it just to prove your false loyalty? Or do you want to create a rift between me and Your Majesty?"

"You are acting so absurdly, trying to guess His Majesty's intentions. Where do you think Your Majesty is? I think you are the traitors!"

Xiang Gan had an unsightly look on his face, and the people behind him hunched their shoulders, completely losing their momentum.

With so many tablets placed here, they were extremely cautious and didn't dare to speak carelessly.

Xiang Gan's face turned pale, and he finally argued, "I have no second thoughts about the country and the people!"

Xiao Zhixing's eyes were grim. "Your loyalty is poison to the country and arsenic to the people!"
