Chapter 178

: Marquis Xuanping, Zhang Ao!

The State of Zhao has three major provinces, and Xishan Province is one of them. The governor of Xishan Province, Xuan Pinghou Zhang Ao, is a feudal official and the leader of the established nobles!

Xuanwu City, the central city of Xishan Province! The Governor's Palace is also located here!

After the fiefdom battle ended, Dong Yiwu brought Dong Qian here to plead guilty!

Although the fault is not entirely his.

But it could only be him. Marquis Xuanping was from a military background and his rule was very strict. If he didn't take the initiative to plead guilty, the consequences would be even more tragic.

Governor's Palace!

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Dong Yiwu and Dong Qian knelt together with their backs straight, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

They had been kneeling like this for a whole day, and the place they were kneeling was outside Xuanpinghou's house.

The two of them were already soaked to the skin and their faces were pale. Dong Qian was doing relatively well because he was young, while Dong Yiwu had begun to shake and almost fainted.

Dong Qian gritted his teeth, and the hatred in his eyes was like a downpour!

Wang Kang, just wait for me. If it weren't for you, how could our father and son have suffered so much!

"My Lord Governor, I beg you to give me another chance! Not for anything else, just for the decline of the Earl's Palace! To repay the humiliation I suffered!"

Dong Yiwu shouted loudly.

Every once in a while, he would shout this again. Dong Qian was filled with hatred, so why not him?

The failure of the fiefdom battle caused him to be slapped in the face again and again. Such a warning woke him up!

If it were before, he was just suppressing the Earl's Mansion for the order of the Governor, just to gain his own interests!

So now, he has a personal grudge, he wants revenge, he wants the Earl's Mansion to collapse, and he wants Wang Kang to pay the price!

"Squeak!"

The door to the room in front of me suddenly opened!

Seeing this, both Dong Yiwu and Dong Yiwu's eyes lit up. Could it be that they could escape this disaster?

"The Governor has an order, please come in!" said a man standing at the door.

Hearing this, the two of them became even more energetic and hurriedly touched the ground to stand up, but they couldn't!

After kneeling for so long, my legs were already numb.

After a while, Dong Qian gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up, then lifted his father Dong Yiwu up, and the two staggered into the house.

When they arrived at the door, they saw that the floor of the house was covered with plush carpet. The two of them were covered in rainwater, but they didn't dare to go in for fear of getting dirty...

"Come in!" the man next to him said again, with a hint of ridicule in his eyes.

Dong Qian saw it! He clenched his fist subconsciously. He was just a servant, and he treated them like this.

Today's humiliation was all caused by that prodigal son. Dong Qian put everything on Wang Kang's head!

After entering the house, I realized how deep the house was. I took a few steps forward and saw a dark curtain in front of me. The curtain blocked my eyes. Through the bottom of the curtain, I could see a pair of official boots!

Black surface and white bottom, embroidered with gold patterns!

Seeing this scene, Dong Yiwu's face turned pale and he hurriedly knelt down, "The criminal Dong Yiwu pays homage to the Governor!"

Seeing his father like this, Dong Qian also knelt down in fear. He knew that the person behind the curtain was the governor of Xishan Province, Zhang Ao, the Marquis of Xuanping!

There are only three such figures in Zhao State who are the second-grade feudal officials!

Especially in Xishan Province, he is the real local emperor, even Emperor Zhao can't do anything to him!

Zhang Ao is the number one figure in the old aristocracy. Xishan Province has been run by him for many years, and most of it is under his control.

Even for Emperor Zhao, the appointment of officials in the imperial court had to go through his mouth, otherwise he would not be able to become one, and it would not take long for him to become one!

This is also the reason why Emperor Zhao is determined to cut down the feudal vassal and kill the nobles, because in the hands of the old nobles, they control too much...

To put it bluntly, the imperial power has been endangered!

Zhang Ao is truly powerful and powerful, while Dong Yiwu is the governor of a state. Even his true face is hard to see. All he can see is a pair of boots...

"I ask you!"

Zhang Ao's thick voice sounded from behind the curtain, "That policy treatise titled "Teaching War and Defending Policy" was really written by Wang Dingchang's son?"

"This..." Dong Yiwu was suddenly startled. He didn't expect that the first thing the Governor asked was this.

"Probably not!" Dong Yiwu thought for a moment and replied.

"Should?" Zhang Ao's voice was obviously heavier.

Dong Yiwu trembled and said hurriedly: "No, definitely not, then Wang Dingchang's son is a prodigal..."

"Confused!" Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhang Ao!

"Can a prodigal who only knows how to spend money create such paintings? Can a prodigal who only knows how to spend money found the Fuyang tabloid? Can a prodigal who only knows how to spend money make you do this?"

Zhang Ao shouted repeatedly: "You don't know people well, and you don't know the enemy well. He is clearly a rare talent, but you still think of him as a prodigal!"

After hearing this, Dong Qian was slightly startled and clenched his fists. It turned out that Wang Kang had already caught the attention of the Governor, and even gave him such a high evaluation!

Are you really that much worse than him?

If Kangxi and Qianlong are not in communism, is it destined to be unable to change?

No! I don’t believe it!

I am Dong Qian, and the final winner must be me!

"Let me ask you, are there any more mineral deposits in Xinfeng County?" Zhang Ao asked again.

Dong Yiwu understood what the governor was worried about. A barren fiefdom was completely different from a fiefdom with iron ore. If it was the latter, it could develop quickly based on it.

He said hurriedly: "Everything we discovered previously has been collected, so it should be gone!"

"Should? Should again?"

Zhang Ao's cold voice made Dong Yiwu's face turn pale, and he said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Governor, Xinfeng County is where I have been running, and the county magistrate is also my person. Moreover, bandits in Xinfeng County have gathered, and one of them has been captured."

I bribed..."

"The purpose is to harass the Earl's Mansion so that they cannot safely take over and develop Xinfeng County. Before coming here, I have hinted to them to ambush and rob. The bandits will definitely not miss this opportunity to make a fortune!"

Dong Yiwu hurriedly told his plan. He just wanted to fight for it and make Zhang Ao feel that he was still useful.

"This is just the first step. If the Earl's Mansion is lucky enough to enter Xinfeng County, it will not be accepted smoothly. The magistrate of Xinfeng County is my person, and he also has some hidden tricks..."

"Besides, Xinfeng County is the most barren land in Yangzhou, surrounded by mountains. Even if it is taken by the Earl's Mansion, it will not do anything..."

After Dong Yiwu finished speaking, he knelt down and bowed his head again.

After a while, Zhang Ao finally spoke in a deep voice: "In this case, I will give you another chance. Your purpose is to suppress the Earl's Mansion and not allow it to develop again. I will not allow any threats to my existence.

,Understand?"

"I understand, I understand!" Dong Yiwu's face was filled with joy. He and his son knelt in the rain for a whole day, and finally it was not in vain.

"Especially Wang Dingchang's son is the troublesome one,"

Zhang Ao said again: "I will let my little daughter go to Yangzhou with you, and she will deal with Wang Kang!"

"Dong Yiwu asked in shock: "Could it be your daughter who is almost as smart as a demon?"

"It's her!"
