Chapter 14 Scheming and Means
"Lin enforces the law impartially and eliminates harm for the people. If you feel it is inappropriate, you can report to the court and remove Lin from his official position and send Lin back to his hometown."
Listening to Lin Xiuyuan's self-narration, Chu Feiyao remained silent, her head covered with black lines.
Okay, let’s just pretend the other person didn’t say this.
The imperial court finally brought the prince of Northern Yan to the south, how could he let him go back so easily?
After thinking for a while, Chu Feiyao said again: "Everyone, for my sake, how about letting this matter go?"
"Princess?!" The three ancestors were stunned at the same time, thinking that we are in the same group. Why are you turning your elbows outward?
"Why, my princess's face is not as good as that of a few dandies?" Chu Feiyao's expression was indifferent.
To be precise, in fact, the three major aristocratic families and the Zhennan Prince's Mansion are not in the same group. They are just taking advantage of each other. Moreover, is it true that the three major aristocratic families do not know anything about the dirty things the three major aristocratic families have done secretly over the years?
"Everything must be obeyed by the princess."
The three ancestors bowed their heads helplessly, after all, their arms could not hold their thighs.
Although many children from aristocratic families died just now, the young masters of the three families are still alive. This shows that although Lin Xiuyuan is crazy, he still knows how to behave.
However, most of the young masters of the three families will be dead after this calamity.
"What do Lin Shidi think?" Chu Feiyao turned to Lin Xiuyuan again.
"I have no problem, but the three aristocratic families owe Dazhou City taxes for ten years. Should they make up for it?" Obviously, Lin Xiuyuan did not intend to let the three aristocratic families off easily.
As a princess, Chu Feiyao's words and deeds represent the face of King Zhennan, so she cannot favor the three major aristocratic families. Otherwise, with so many people watching, once the news spreads, King Zhennan's reputation will inevitably be affected.
Huge blow.
Hiss! What a terrible scheming person!
From the county government accounts, visiting the market, to fishing law enforcement, and public trials...it seems that every step is planned by Lin Xiuyuan.
And Lin Xiuyuan used his identity as the city lord to go on a killing spree, which not only suppressed the arrogance of the three aristocratic families, but also established the prestige of the city lord in the hearts of the people. By the way, he also weakened the influence of King Zhennan in Dazhou City. It can be said that he killed three birds with one stone.
have to.
However, Lin Xiuyuan was upright and upright, and it was difficult for anyone to blame him.
Chu Feiyao believed that Lin Xiuyuan would soon be able to gain a foothold in Dazhou City after today, and the people in the city would become his loyal supporters.
"The state has its own laws and every family has its own rules. The taxes owed should be paid by oneself."
Chu Feiyao glanced at the three ancestors with an indifferent expression. The latter's face was filled with despair, but they were helpless.
After a pause, Chu Feiyao changed the subject and said: "By the way, Lin Shidi, I recently heard that there was a small disturbance in the city, and Lin Shidi was assassinated, so I specially invited Senior Brother Luo to come here to take charge."
As he spoke, Chu Feiyao guided his hand to the man in green behind him: "This is my fellow senior in Xuan Dao Sect, Luo Shaoxuan. From now on, I will leave it to Senior Brother Luo."
"Brother Fool will definitely live up to your junior sister's trust."
Luo Shaoxuan nodded and smiled and said no more.
It can be seen that the other party is a cautious person.
Lin Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes. He was another Yuanying genius who was not more than a hundred years old, and he was still in the late Yuanying stage. Xuandao Sect was worthy of being the "No. 1 Immortal Sect in the World". It was rumored that the Great Master of Chu was also born in Xuandao Sect.
But then again, is Xuan Dao Sect planning to hedge its bets? It’s not easy to be so high-profile but not destroyed.
While Lin Xiuyuan was thinking, Chu Feiyao took the initiative to invite: "Lin Shidi, please take a break these days. The third day of March is the Water Sacrifice Ceremony. I wonder if Shidi is interested in participating?"
The so-called "Water Sacrifice Hall" is an annual custom in southern Xinjiang, hosted by Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
Dragon boats fight to cross the river and suppress the water tribe.
At that time, many young talents will participate, and those with outstanding performance will receive generous rewards. This is also one of the methods used by Zhennan Palace to select talents.
"The princess invites you, Lin should go there."
Lin Xiuyuan knew that the other party had bad intentions, but he did not refuse.
There are still more than a month until the third day of March, and it’s hard to say who will plot who by then.
After reading, Lin Xiuyuan left with Feng Weiying and others, leaving a mess behind.
After a while, the surrounding people dispersed, but what happened today is destined to be engraved in everyone's heart, and it also changed the fate of many people.
…
"What does Senior Brother Luo think of this person?"
"The sharp edge is sharp, and it is easy to break. If it were not for his identity as the prince of Beiyan, he would not be able to survive for three days based on his words and deeds."
"But he is the Crown Prince of Beiyan. This is his destiny!"
Chu Feiyao sighed slightly, seeing Lin Xiuyuan again, he was completely different from before.
"Senior Brother Luo, this is your identity token in the Tianxun Division. It can control officials of all sizes in Tongzhou City, including the three major aristocratic families and the city lord. If Lin Xiuyuan behaves recklessly, please ask Senior Brother Luo to discipline him on his behalf, as long as he does not die."
With that said, Chu Feiyao handed a jade plaque to Luo Shaoxuan.
Patrol Division, Third-grade Embroidered Clothes Envoy Du Division?
Luo Shaoxuan played with the jade token in his hand, with a playful smile on his lips.
…
During the county government's public trial, more than ten people from three major families died, and the bloody atmosphere spread ten miles away.
After the news spread, the entire Dazhou City was boiling again.
In particular, the helplessness of the three major aristocratic families in the face of the new city lord was deliberately exaggerated by some people, causing the prestige of the three major aristocratic families to fall to the bottom.
On the contrary, the new city lord Lin Xiuyuan has become a great hero in the hearts of the people, a clear-cut master of the sky.
In this era, people's emotions are very simple. They don't have much thought. They will be kind to whoever is kind to them.
Suddenly, many households enshrined Lin Xiuyuan's portrait.
In the portrait, a young man is lonely and arrogant, standing with his hands behind his back.
The purple human destiny is gathering towards the city lord's palace bit by bit.
…
Thousands of miles away, in the land of the Northern Territory.
A goshawk pierced the sky and flew into Prince Yan's palace.
"Your Majesty, this is the messenger talisman of the Secret Word Yingfeng Group."
"Is my son causing trouble?"
"Yes, Your Highness, His Royal Highness has only been in the city for three days, and he killed more than ten children from three major families."
"A bunch of dandy boys will die when they die, but this kid really doesn't make people worry."
"Your Majesty, the situation in southern Xinjiang is complicated. Do you want to send someone there?"
"No need for now, the court will be wary if too many people come, and the old fox King Zhennan won't feel at ease, so just let Lao Yuan watch him."
"yes."
"I heard that there is a monster problem in Youzhou. What's going on first?"
"Here!"
A figure blended into the darkness and disappeared in an instant.
…
Southern Xinjiang, Corpse Refining Sect.
There was a sudden "boom" in the Tianzhi Pavilion, and the surrounding disciples knelt on the ground and remained silent.
"Trash! It's all trash!"
Chu Tianxing yelled and cursed while beating Su Qian to vent his anger.
He had just received news from the royal family. It turned out that the Crown Prince of Beiyan was not dead, and had become the lord of Dazhou City, causing a lot of trouble.
Chu Tianxing was scolded so badly by the ancestor of the royal family that he couldn't get rid of the label of incompetence. Now he can only find ways to make up for his mistakes.
But he still couldn't figure out how Lin Xiuyuan slipped away from under their noses? Could it be that Ge Shou secretly defected to King Beiyan and released the prince?
Su Qian also feels aggrieved. It is clear that your cultivation level of Chu Tianxing is higher than mine, but you didn’t even notice it. Why should you blame me?!
Of course, Su Qian only dared to think about these words but did not dare to point them out.
After some venting, Chu Tianxing gradually calmed down. When dealing with Lin Xiuyuan, he could not come forward, otherwise once the matter was exposed, King Beiyan would directly quarrel with the royal family.
Although the royal family is not afraid of King Beiyan, the current situation is unstable and it is better to remain still than to move.
