Happy Little Scholar

An imperial edict has been passed to Shuzhou long ago, and Shuzhou will be used as a fiefdom for His Highness King Jing. In the future, all financial, military and political affairs of Shuzhou will be decided by His Highness King Jing, and only need to be reported to the court afterwards.

The former governor of Shuzhou was recalled by the imperial court, and the remaining assistant officials were temporarily retained. The new governor will be personally appointed by His Highness King Jing.

This almost made the entire Shu state independent, with minimal contact with the imperial court. It could be said to be an unprecedented initiative since the founding of the country. Of course, it was also unprecedented in the history of Jingguo to grant the title of king to a foreign minister.

Based on these two points alone, we can see His Majesty's trust in His Royal Highness King Jing. Shuzhou has a new owner, so local officials like them must be more careful.

After all, before this, they had already understood all the legends about His Highness King Jing in depth.

In the past two days, people from Prince Jing's Mansion arrived in Shuzhou. During these two days, they had been waiting anxiously. Now, after much difficulty, His Highness Prince Jing arrived. This blind magistrate of Yongxian County was so bold and reckless. Governor Shi and Sima Sheng tore his heart out.

The person in front of me is the very powerful Prince Jing, who is a close friend of His Majesty and the Princess Auxiliary. How could he blindly accuse Prince Jing of being a bandit?

"Get this guilty minister for me!"

Governor Shi of Shu turned around and said something, and immediately soldiers picked up Magistrate Zhang who was lying on the ground.

"Your Highness, please spare your life, Your Highness, please spare your life..." Magistrate Zhang was being held in custody. He wanted to kneel down but couldn't. He could only look at him with desperate eyes and said loudly: "Your Highness, Prince Jing, spare your life!"

The magistrate of a county actually colluded with bandits and wantonly framed good people, which is enough to show how rampant official corruption is in Shuzhou.

Li Yi waved his hand and said: "Take off his official uniform and escort him to the market entrance. The people have the final say whether to spare him or not."

Shi, the governor of Shu, bowed and said: "I obey!"

From today on, His Royal Highness King Jing is the new master of Shuzhou. In Shuzhou, his words are equivalent to imperial edicts.

"Jing, His Highness King Jing..." Wang Chang's face turned pale, he walked over, his voice was trembling, and said: "I don't know who your Highness is, but I have offended you many times in the past two days. I hope your Highness will forgive me..."

"He who doesn't know is not guilty..." Li Yi shook his head and said, "I haven't thanked you for taking care of me all the way. If you have time, I'll treat you to a drink!"

Wang Chang heard this and froze in place. From now on, he could no longer regard the young man in front of him as the Li brother who could drink tea and chat with him. One was just a low-status bodyguard, and the other was a local. The most powerful King Jing in the dynasty, His Highness King Jing, was actually inviting him to drink?

Lao Fang came over, put his arms around Wang Chang's neck, and said: "Mother-in-law, you are like a woman. After drinking this drink, we will become true friends in the future. If you encounter any difficulties in Shuzhou in the future, I will protect you." you……"

Wang Chang knew that this was a blessing that he could never get in his lifetime, so he bowed and said, "Well, thank you, His Highness Prince Jing..."

Magistrate Zhang was dragged down. Shuzhou Sima stepped forward, pointed at the government officials in the yard, and asked, "Your Highness, what should we do with these people?"

The person in charge in the yamen was Magistrate Zhang. These people also obeyed orders and could not be punished as severely as him. Li Yi thought about it and said, "Each person has ten sticks as a punishment. If he acts as an aide to the tiger again in the future, he will be punished." Don’t be lenient!”

"Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness!"

The county government officials immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed as if they were pounding garlic. Even though they had to be beaten with sticks, they did not dare to resent His Highness King Jing at all.

The rest of the people also had time to raise their heads and quietly look at His Highness Prince Jing.

In the past two years, they had heard a lot about King Jing's deeds. Today was the first time they saw this legendary figure. They felt that although he was so young, he had a different bearing from ordinary people...

A little girl jumped into the county government office, looked at Li Yi, and said crisply: "Brother, sister Ruyi said that if you don't go back, sister Ruyi will eat up all your food..."

After that, he jumped and ran out again.

Li Yi's expression changed, and he hurriedly chased after her, saying hurriedly: "Ask her to leave some for me..."

Everyone watched the figure disappear outside the door in an instant. After being stunned, they once again felt that His Highness King Jing did have a different demeanor from ordinary people...

…

The people in Yongxian County feel a little uneasy today.

The sergeants guarding the city hurried over and surrounded the county government office. Although they didn't know what happened, the situation at that time looked extremely serious, and something big must have happened.

It turns out that something big happened.

Otherwise, how could County Magistrate Zhang, the dog official, be dragged to his knees at the entrance of the vegetable market, attracting countless people to watch.

The people were initially worried and confused. This dog official had been the county magistrate in Yong County for many years and had done all kinds of bad things. After being promoted to the county magistrate, he intensified his efforts, colluding with bandits, and plundering people's wealth everywhere, which made people in Yong County panic. , the people hated him to the core...

But he was the county magistrate, and no one dared to mess with him. The common people could only swallow it in their stomachs after grinding their teeth.

But which one is this dog officer acting in today?

Soon, some enthusiastic people found out the whole story.

His Royal Highness Prince Jing, who was rumored to be agitated in Shuzhou, finally arrived in Yong County today.

Before entering Yongxian County, His Highness captured a group of bandits. He wanted to hand them over to the government, but he did not expect that the bandit Lin Ershangzi was the brother-in-law of the Yongxian County Magistrate. In the past, they colluded with the bandits and committed crimes. Many evil deeds have been committed, and now they are actually falsely accusing His Highness Prince Jing of being a thief...

Then……

Then County Magistrate Zhang was stripped of his official uniform, took off his official hat, and knelt here.

"Bah, Dog Officer, you have done all the bad things, but you didn't expect that you would end up like this!" Someone finally couldn't help it and spat hard at him.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the people watching finally became excited.

"Young official, you dared to frame His Highness Prince Jing after eating the courage of a bear and a leopard!" Someone in the crowd threw a rotten egg.

"You have done all the evil things, and you are here today only because of yourself!" Another stone was thrown from the crowd.

"Damn it, who's going to hit me with a rock!" Someone jumped out from the other side, covering his head.

More rocks and eggs were thrown at him.

The crowd suddenly became chaotic and divided into two obvious gangs. They started fighting with stones and rotten eggs, which eventually turned into a close-quarters fight.

"I saw it, it was you who hit me just now!" One person pointed at the man opposite and kicked Magistrate Zhang.

"Don't you know why I hit you? Who threw the rotten egg that hit me on the head just now?" The man pointed at him angrily and punched Magistrate Zhang on the nose.

The crowds came one after another and soon swamped Magistrate Zhang.

The soldiers nearby saw that the situation was not good and immediately stepped forward to stop...

When County Magistrate Zhang was dragged out, his head was bleeding and his face was swollen. He was breathing out more and taking in less air...

The expression of the man in armor changed and he immediately said: "Go and call the doctor!"

…

The former Shu Prince's Mansion is now the Temporary King Jing's Mansion.

Having just arrived in Shuzhou, there were still many things to deal with. After eating, Li Yi did not delay long and met with some senior managers who had stayed in Shuzhou in the past two years.

"Your Majesty, we have almost conquered all the bandits that can be conquered around us. There are still two more difficult bones to crack inside. I am worried that the losses will be too great, so I dare not act rashly..."

At this time, in front of Li Yi, a shiny bald head was trembling regularly.

Li Yi nodded and said, "I know everything you have done in the past two years. It's very good. Let's take a long-term plan for the future."

The bald head showed excitement on his face and said: "Your Majesty, I must catch them all this time..."

Wang Chang stood at the door in a daze, feeling that the bald man inside looked particularly familiar.

He soon remembered where this sense of familiarity came from.

One time when they were escorting an escort, they encountered a large group of bandits, and when the entire escort team was almost destroyed, it was this bald man who saved them.

They are also bandits, but they are bandits who specialize in robbing bandits.

This bald head appears here and seems to be a subordinate of His Highness Prince Jing, so...

It turned out that His Highness Prince Jing did not lie to him.

He suddenly felt that his mind was a little messy and needed to be sorted out.
