As soon as he said this, Zhao Kang felt his eyes go dark and almost fell to the ground.

He had always regarded Su Mei as a pet, and the reason why he sent her to the palace this time was to use a beauty trick to confuse Li Feng. However, he didn't expect that after all his tricks were used, he would end up doing things for others.

Got the wedding dress.

Seeing that Zhao Kang refused to kneel or bow, Li Feng's face darkened: "Master Zhao, do you also want to disobey me?"

"I have seen the princess a thousand years old!"

Zhao Kang's face turned red, he gritted his teeth and knelt down, his nails already piercing into his flesh.

Su Mei turned her head to the side, not wanting to face Zhao Kang again, but Li Feng pinched her chin and turned her head back forcefully: "My dear concubine, please let Mr. Zhao forgive you!"

"Master Zhao, please forgive me..."

Hearing Su Mei's trembling voice made Zhao Kang's heart feel like a knife, but due to Li Feng's identity, he could only swallow this bad breath.

"I thank you, Prince and Princess!"

With the help of the officials around him, Zhao Kang staggered to his feet.

Seeing his appearance, Li Feng smiled even more: "Master Zhao, I have appointed a princess, will this palace also need to be built?"

An official immediately jumped out and said, "Your Majesty, Youzhou is a barren area and is often plundered by foreign tribes. Now there is a lack of money and food, and it is difficult for the people to eat. You..."

Li Feng looked up at the official who was speaking, and asked him with a smile: "What is your position?"

"The lower official is the general magistrate of Youzhou, with an official rank of sixth rank!"

"It turned out to be a sixth-grade official..."

Li Feng casually grabbed the incense burner on the desk and threw it towards the Youzhou judge in front of him.

"How dare the little judge dare to contradict me? Someone, pull him out and chop him down!"

Li Feng gave the order, and guards immediately entered the palace to fetch someone.

Liu Ji stood aside with a smile on his face, wanting to see how Zhao Kang protected his confidants.

"Liu Ji contradicted him but was pardoned. I just told the truth. What's wrong with him?" the judge yelled, squeezing his neck.

"What's wrong? As a general magistrate, you are in charge of grain transportation and water conservancy, but you can't protect the environment and the people, resulting in nine droughts and people living in dire straits. Do you think you should die?"

As soon as Li Feng said this, all the officials in the palace were shocked.

They all thought that Li Feng was dissolute and immoral, but they didn't expect that he would act so decisively this time.

Tong Juan knew that he had no way to save his life, so he turned his gaze to Zhao Kang who was standing aside: "Master Zhao, please help me!"

"Your Majesty, the drought in the Nine Paths is not due to Tong Ju's fault. It is God's will and cannot be controlled by human power!"

"Huh? Master Zhao means that God wants to blame me, Li Feng, for the drought in Youzhou?"

"I don't dare to be demoted. It's just that Lu Lin has been serving as a general judge for many years. If he wants to be deposed now, I'm afraid that the previous work will not be suitable for handover. Why not let him perform meritorious service and see the consequences!"

Lu Lin also knelt on the ground at this time, kowtowing like pounding garlic: "I hope you will forgive me for your sins and allow me to make meritorious deeds!"

Seeing this scene, Li Feng sneered: "Oh, it seems that I can't kill this general judge?"

"I hope the prince will think twice about the matter of passing the judgment!"

With Zhao Kang taking the lead, several other officials also stood up and wanted to jointly recommend Lu Lin.

But how could Li Feng let them get their wish?

"Come here, put Lu Lin in prison. I want you to hand over all official duties to Liu Ji within three days, and you will be executed after three days!"

Several guards came forward and forced Lu Lin to the ground.

"My lord, please spare my life!"

Lu Lin, who was pinned to the ground, lost his previous arrogance and just kowtowed for mercy.

Zhao Kang was so angry that his face turned into pig liver, but he did not dare to say anything further and could only stand aside and grit his teeth secretly.

"Lu Lin, if I hadn't thought that you had no fault in governing the state, I would have rebelled against your three clans today. You are also an official of the imperial court. Why do you behave so cowardly? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by your colleagues?"

Hearing this, Lu Lin's body trembled. He turned to look at Zhao Kang and others, only to find that they had also stopped talking.

Lu Lin knew that he had no way to save himself, so he had no choice but to kowtow and thank him: "Your Majesty, Lu Lin, thank you!"

"Well, I will give you three days to hand over your official duties. Is that enough?"

"enough!"

"Okay, take him down!"

Lu Lin was taken out of the hall, and before leaving, he still stared at the people present with unkind eyes.

Li Feng saw something fishy, ​​so he said to the guard who was holding the prisoner: "The criminal Lu Lin will be under strict supervision. No one is allowed to enter or exit the prison without my order!"

After saying that, he turned to look at the officials present: "It will be getting late today, please come back, adults!"

Li Feng walked up to everyone and patted Liu Ji on the shoulder: "Do a good job, this post of general judge will be yours from now on!"

Liu Ji's body trembled and he responded in a low voice: "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your appreciation..."

After seeing off several officials, Li Feng sat on the soft couch again.

Seeing Li Feng approaching, Su Mei shrank like a little animal: "Your Majesty, I am unable to support you, I hope you will have mercy on me."

"It's not that the beauty is unable to accept love, but that she just met her lover and is in a state of confusion, right?"

Hearing this, Su Mei's heart trembled, but she still managed to smile and said: "I have been favored by the prince, how can I tolerate others in my heart? Please don't make fun of me!"

"If that's the case, then you should stay in the palace and stop having contact with others!"

Li Feng ordered Lu Lin to be detained and Su Mei to be imprisoned, and took the opportunity to win over Liu Ji in order to eliminate Zhao Kang's right-hand man.

He wants Zhao Kang to know who is the king of Youzhou!

After leaving the palace, several officials gathered together.

"Master Zhao, what the prince did today is obviously for us!"

"Yeah, what about the palace, are we?"

"Cannot be built!"

Zhao Kang's face was sinister and his voice was cold: "Now he wants to use the matter of building the palace to put pressure on us and get the money. The more this happens, the less we can be fooled, otherwise we will definitely be manipulated by him in the future!"

"Having said that, what else can we do?"

"Simple, he detained Lu Lin just to collect evidence. If that's the case, then let's let Lu Lin become a dead person..."

At night, there was silence in Youzhou City.

It was dark inside the palace, with only two lanterns in the hands of the patrolling guards.

In the main hall, there was only a dim bean lamp lit. Li Feng threw the writing aside and cursed in a low voice: "They are all just tricks to encourage food and relief. They can really find trouble for me!"

Looking at the pile of papers in front of him, Li Feng sighed helplessly.

There was a severe drought in Youzhou, the imperial court was unable to provide disaster relief, and his subordinates were lining their own pockets. Almost all the offers in front of him were from nine different places urging for disaster relief food funds.

It's just that Youzhou has long been like a rotten tree, feeding a group of moths, but it has also emptied itself.

"If you want to raise food and grass, you have to start with Zhao Kang!"

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door.

"who?"

"Your Majesty, Liu Ji, came to pay homage to the prince!"

Hearing that Liu Ji was here, a smile appeared on Li Feng's face: "Master Liu, please come in!"

The palace door opened, and Liu Jim stepped inside.

At this time, he was wearing ordinary clothes, not official robes, and there was a package hidden in his sleeve.

"Master Liu came here late at night. Could it be that he wants to assassinate me?"

"The prince is joking, I am here to share the prince's worries this time!"
