"nonsense!"

Li Chen glared at Xu Wei and said angrily: "If you just punish him, how can I have so much time to talk to him?"

Xu Wei said in confusion: "But didn't he disobey the imperial court's order? And he actually found an undercover agent to deceive the people..."

Li Chen said calmly: "It is precisely because he disobeyed the imperial court's order that he still needs to undergo an evaluation by the Ministry of Civil Affairs to check whether his past political background is clean. If he fails to pass the test, it will be his own fault."

"As for what you said about deceiving the people..."

Li Chen chuckled lightly and said meaningfully: "Without this incident, he would not even have the chance to be evaluated by the Ministry of Officials. He arranged for this internal officer to channel the grievances of the people outside the city so that they could obey the orders of Yulin Mansion.

Arrangement, this is already a rare astuteness. Among the vast number of fourth-grade prefects in the imperial court, how many of them can have such a brain?"

"Deceived... Whether it's sincerity or deception, I don't care what means he uses. I only care whether the result of what he does is what I and the court want to see. If so, then the flaws cannot be concealed. If

No, then it is of no use."

Xu Wei's two eyebrows were twisted together, and he murmured for a long time before holding back one sentence: "I don't understand."

Li Chen had a black line on his face and said angrily: "I don't expect you to understand. You are like you. If you are transferred to be an official, you will be killed in two months. You will not be able to understand it for the rest of your life."

That means being a bodyguard."

When Xu Wei heard this, he was extremely proud and said with a smile: "Being able to be your highness's bodyguard for the rest of your life is a humble honor."

Li Chen was happy and said: "You can be so confident if you don't have great ambitions. That's all. Everyone has their own ambitions. I'm too lazy to tell you. It's not a great wisdom not to force yourself to do things that you are not good at. Let's go.

, return to the front line as soon as possible."

The group of people, with their horse hooves flying, brought up little bits of snowflakes, and gradually disappeared into the still violent wind and snow.

At the same time, the capital was thousands of miles away.

Brothers Zhou Pingan and Zhou Changshou, who had just arrived in the capital for only half a day, were filling their bellies at a roadside stall selling tofu curd.

Next door is a government-run bank.

At this time, there was a long queue outside the bank.

"Significant, your tofu curd, use it slowly."

The middle-aged boss had a smile on his face, politely served the steaming tofu puffs, and said enthusiastically.

Zhou Changshou took it with a smile, pointed to the long queue next door, and asked: "Store, are these people here to get money?"

The boss glanced in the direction of Zhou Changshou's finger, then shook his head and said, "I can't say, I can't say."

Zhou Changshou understood, took out a few coins, put them in the boss's hand, and said, "It's money to eat tofu."

"It's impressive for two people. If there are more, this money can buy more than ten bowls..."

Before the boss finished speaking, Zhou Changshou added with a smile: "And money to make things that are difficult to say easier to say."

The boss smiled bitterly and wanted to refuse, but he really couldn't bear to part with the warm copper in his hand, so he pulled out a stool and sat down and said: "Boy, I don't know why you are asking about this. Anyway, I am just an ordinary tofu seller."

The little hawker doesn't understand much, so he just talks about what he has seen and heard these days. It's fine for both of you to enjoy it. If the officials listen to it, the business of my stall will be ruined.
