Chapter 17: Prefectural Examination, Announcement(1/2)
After the two saluted, they looked at Chen Ke, who was smiling in front of them, with a slightly confused expression.
Why would the Governor appear on the street at this time?
Before Chen Ke could speak, Fusu coughed lightly.
Then he said: "Teacher and I went out secretly and were looking for two of them."
After Jiang Joao and Muthar heard this, the confusion in their hearts dissipated.
I see.
It was soon time for officials from various counties and counties to come for the assessment, and their previous plan was to take action against Wang Kande at this time.
Now that things are about to begin, it is only natural that Governor Chen and Master Fusu come to find them.
At this time, the airy temperament on Jiang Ruo'ang's body had disappeared. Although he still looked fat, he had a somewhat harmonious and prosperous atmosphere.
Mutar is still the same, a rough man without any faults.
"Governor, Your Highness, why don't we go to my house?"
"Now there is a storm coming outside. Although Wang Kande is still bedridden and the Wang family is in turmoil, we still need to be careful."
Chen Ke nodded slightly.
He thought that he only came out to visit Linzi County. Now that Jiang Ruoang saw it, he could go and discuss it with Jiang Ruoang.
Immediately, Chen Ke nodded, without saying anything, and the group of people moved away.

Xianyang City
Zhangtai palace court meeting
Many ministers were kneeling and sitting there, looking solemn.
Ever since the young master Chen left, the atmosphere in the court has become more severe day by day. When the young master was here before, His Majesty the First Emperor would still smile at least.
Now he has completely lost his smile.
Outside the main hall, Tian Cheng, Yu Que, and Wei Xin went up to the hall, their expressions were respectful and somewhat solemn.
"I will see your Majesty. Your Majesty will live for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty will last for ten thousand years——"
The three of them made a long salute, not daring to raise their heads easily.
Wei Xin glanced sideways and secretly glanced at Ying Zheng, who was on the stage in the distance, and his heart suddenly shuddered.
His Majesty's aura is so majestic that it makes people feel frightened just by looking at him.
"No gift."
Ying Zheng's voice was dull. He looked at the three people Wei Xin and others under the Grand Highness, his expressions unchanged.
"The three of you traveled thousands of miles to come to Xianyang, which is enough to show your loyalty."
"Although the remnants of the Six Kingdoms have been destroyed now, the titles of the three of you cannot be deposed."
"I have prepared a house for the three of you in Xianyang City."
"From now on, I will live in Xianyang City forever."
Wei and Xin's expressions remained unchanged. Before arriving here, they had already made preparations to live in Xianyang City permanently.
After all, they were all remnants of the Six Kingdoms. Although they had contributed to the First Emperor's annihilation of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, this credit could probably only save one of their lives.
Xu Shi looked at the normal expressions of these three people, and Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, remembering the letter he had seen before going to court.
"However, instead of living in Xianyang City forever, I have another way."
"I wonder if you are willing?"
Another way?
The three of them were a little surprised and confused. Is the emperor willing not to restrain them in Xianyang City?
Wei Xin and the other three looked at each other, and then Tian Cheng stepped forward with a respectful expression.
Wei Xin, Yu Que's Marquis of Wei, and the imperial edict of Marquis Zhao have not yet been issued. He is the only one with the highest status here, and he is a veritable Marquis of Qi.
"I am willing to obey your Majesty's orders, obey your Majesty's arrangements, and do my best for your Majesty, through fire and water."
Ying Zheng chuckled, and the laughter echoed in the hall.
Li Si, Wang Guan, Feng Quji, Wang Jian and others in the audience all looked sideways, and it was rare for this one to laugh.
This person is not in a good mood these days. How can he laugh out loud now?
Li Si counted the days silently in his heart, and then he suddenly understood.
He leaned sideways and whispered to Wang Jian beside him: "I heard that your Majesty received a letter yesterday, and it was from Penglaizhou."
Peng Laizhou’s letter?
In an instant, Wang Jian understood why Ying Zheng's mood suddenly improved a lot.
"It is indeed that boy."
"Other than Mr. Chen, who else can make His Majesty, who always has a calm expression and solemnity, laugh out loud?"
Feng Quji, who was next to the two of them, also heard it.
He immediately smiled bitterly: "Although Chen Ke is no longer in Xianyang City, things in Xianyang are still influenced by him."

At this time, Ying Zheng also looked at Wei Xin and the others below and expressed his plan.
"Chen Ke wrote to me two days ago, crying and saying that there is no manpower available in Penglaizhou."
"It will make him cry in embarrassment."
When Ying Zheng said this, he smiled brightly.
"I see that the three of you are fine. If you are not afraid of the hardships of traveling and traveling, would you like to go to Penglaizhou to help that boy Chen Ke?"
Ying Zheng looked disgusted: "It would also prevent that boy from writing to me and crying every day, which would give me a headache."
Tian Chengshang didn't respond, Wei Xin, and Yu Que were a little shocked for a moment.
Yu Que's words did not pass through his mind. He raised his head and looked at Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, aren't you worried about what thoughts we may have when we go somewhere?"
As soon as he asked this question, the hall burst into laughter.
Wang Jian laughed loudly. The generals and officials around him were all laughing, and he even felt his stomach hurt from laughing.
Wang Ben even beat his chest to express that it was too funny.
Han Xin, who was standing by the side, had not yet gone to northern Xinjiang and was here to attend the court meeting, so he heard these unreasonable words.
He almost burst into tears laughing.
And the one who laughed out loud just now was none other than him, a young man in his late teens or early twenties.
Wang Jian looked at Yu Que who looked confused, then took a step forward, looked at Yu Que and said, "Is Zhao Hou so confident?"
"Don't say that now the remnants of the Six Kingdoms have been basically wiped out, and the people of the world have returned to Qin."
"What if we had to start over again?"
"Back then, my country, the Qin Dynasty, only had a few cities, but it was still able to conquer the six kingdoms and annex the world."
"Now that we have the world in hand, why are we worried about you?"
He looked at Ying Zheng on the stage: "Your Majesty must have thought so too."
Ying Zheng had a smile on his face. He looked at Wang Jian, then at Tian Cheng, Wei Xin, and Yu Que.
"The three beloved ladies just keep their hearts in their stomachs."
"How come I don't even have the tolerance to tolerate it?"
Ying Zheng even walked off the stage, patted the three of them on the shoulders, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't think too much."
"You just need to say whether you want to or not."
Tian Cheng lowered his head to prevent others from seeing his red eyes.
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, he raised his head, his eyes were red and there were some tears in his eyes.
"My lord, thank you very much, Your Majesty."
"I would like to go to Penglaizhou and obey Feng Chang's instructions."
Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at the other two people with a smile: "Where are you two?"
There seemed to be some hint in his words: "If you do it well, maybe one day you can be like Qi Hou and get your wish."
Wei Xin's hand shook slightly, and even Yu Que, who had always been arrogant, was a little stunned.
Is this what they mean?
Looking at Ying Zheng's smiling eyes, the two of them instantly stabilized their minds and said directly: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go and obey Feng Chang's instructions!"
