314 Hengyuan: No. 3, I actually already knew your true identity _1

……. Emperor Yuan jing choked. He did not expect such a reply from Xu Qi ‘an.

Every time he made things difficult for her, she would shout,”my bones!” It was the style of an old fox in the officialdom. Who knew that this little Gong was even more straightforward and actually asked for death.

Emperor Yuan jing’s face darkened. People in power liked to say harsh words to show their dignity. From the Emperor to the county Magistrate, everyone liked to say, “Give it to this Emperor (this official) and so and so, or else I’ll tell you so and so.

This was not a big deal. After all, there was a difference in status, and the officials and servants could only accept it and obediently accept the orders.

Unexpectedly, the gong actually came back and made Emperor Yuan jing feel uncomfortable.

Emperor Yuan jing was even more unhappy when he saw Xu tonglong’s drastic change. At the same time, he sighed with emotion that the reborn pill was indeed a rare elixir.

Even Jian Zheng had only refined three pills in sixty years.

“Xu Qi ‘an, do you think I won’t kill you?” Emperor Yuan jing snapped.

Emperor yuanjing had been in power for 36 years. The emperor’s Majesty was extremely strong. The air in the Imperial study seemed to have lowered a little. Several eunuchs immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to look up at the Dragon.

The only person who could remain calm in front of the Emperor was Wei Yuan.

Of course, Xu Qi ‘an would not continue to argue with him. He was not flustered. He changed from his previous elegant manner of punching out to a submissive one.

“Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was in Yunzhou to protect the governor. I fought the rebel army and killed 200 people.

I’ve worked hard in Yunzhou and cracked the case of the chief governor song Changfu colluding with the witchcraft cult. I’ve also cleared yang Chuannan’s name.

“All of the above are insignificant, and I will never take them out to claim credit. As for the case of sang Bo and Princess Ping Yang, I’ve already forgotten about them and will never bring them up again.

“It’s just that this humble servant’s vitality is greatly damaged and my mind is weak. After waking up, I often have headaches and really can’t help Your Majesty.”

Emperor Yuan jing stared at him, unable to say anything.

This little copper Gong had deliberately pulled out a bunch of cases to highlight his own merits. First, he consolidated his position as a meritorious official, and then he dodged it by saying that he was not feeling well. He was already well-versed in the techniques of the official language of the court.

Wei Yuan immediately said, ” Your Majesty, Xu Qi ‘an is just a copper Gong. No matter how powerful he is, he has used up a lot of his energy. His life is not a big deal. However, it will delay the case and make it impossible for Consort Fu to redress her grievances. That is a big deal.

After a pause, he looked at Xu Qi ‘an and said, “”You should go back and recuperate. His Majesty will not send hungry soldiers.”

An Emperor does not lack hungry soldiers …

Emperor Yuan jing looked at Wei Yuan and said, “”Xu Qi ‘an, I have as many prescriptions for the Directorate of Celestials. The spirit treasures temple has no lack of elixirs. If you are not feeling well, I can reward you with a few elixirs.

“I will remember your contributions in Yunzhou and intend to give you the title of Viscount. The emperor’s grace is boundless, do not disappoint.”

In the end, Xu Qi ‘an was just a small figure and was not worthy of Emperor Yuan jing’s deliberate difficulties. The cabinet proposed to revoke his title, and Emperor Yuan jing went with the flow.

But now that he wanted to use Xu Qi ‘an, Emperor Yuan jing did not mind giving him some benefits. However, he was very unhappy. He knew that he had been tricked.

“Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is wise and mighty, an Emperor for all eternity.” Xu Qi ‘an said loudly.

“I want to know the truth of the case as soon as possible,” Emperor Yuan jing nodded slightly.

“This humble servant will do his best, until death do me part.”

Seeing that little Gong was so tactful, Emperor Yuan jing felt a little better. He said lightly, “”You may leave.”

……..

Walking side by side with Wei Yuan on the empty square, Wei Yuan squinted his eyes and looked forward with a faint smile. “Did you learn it?”

“I’ve learned it.” Xu Qi ‘an said.

He had really learned it, unlike in the past when the teacher stood on the podium and knocked on the blackboard, asking, “Have you all learned it?

He lied through his teeth and replied loudly, “He would!

The reason why Wei Yuan wanted to hand him over was simple. An Emperor was a human, and he had his weaknesses. He was bound by rules and could not do whatever he wanted.

At the same time, the Emperor was not omnipotent. The Emperor also had needs. As long as you had what he ” needed “, you would have a lot of room for manipulation.

For example, this time, the three law divisions were delaying the case. What could Emperor Yuan jing do? At most, he would be punished, but it was impossible for him to be removed from office or beheaded.

With such a background, Xu Qi ‘an, who had solved several major cases and offended many officials, was the perfect candidate for the investigation.

Since the Emperor wants to use you, it is necessary to fight for your own interests.

Once he became a Viscount, it was reasonable that Xu Qi ‘an failed to solve the case because of his ” lack of ability ” even though he had made some symbolic efforts.

After all, he was not an immortal.

At that time, Emperor Yuan jing’s anger was foreseeable, but Xu Qi ‘an, who was already a Viscount at that time, would at most be punished, such as caning, salary deduction, and even demotion.

However, the title of nobility was not something that could be taken away just like that. The title of nobility was a means for the Imperial court to win over people’s hearts, and it could only be granted to people who had made great contributions.

Correspondingly, the conditions for stripping of the title were also very strict. It was by no means something that the Emperor could strip away. Otherwise, the title of nobility would be too cheap, and how would the public be convinced?

As for whether Emperor Yuan jing would go back on his word, Xu Qi ‘an and Wei Yuan did not think that the Emperor of a country would be so shameless. Even if Emperor Yuan jing wanted to renege on his debt, Xu Qi ‘an could still delay the case.

There was a plan at the top and a countermeasure at the bottom.

“Lord Xu, please wait.”

A shrill cry came from behind.

Xu Qi ‘an and Wei Yuan stopped and looked back. It was the old eunuch beside Emperor Yuan jing. He was running after them with a gold medal in his hand.

“This is a golden medallion bestowed by His Majesty. Official Xu Can enter the palace at any time to investigate, but you must be accompanied by an official from the palace.” The old eunuch presented the Golden token.
