Liu Chengzhi finished writing the memorial, put down his pen and looked at Xiao Yuanhuai.

"Let's chat a few times, and you may not have any chance to talk again in the future."

Xiao Yuanhuai also put down his pen: "Sir, please tell me."

"You are a teenager younger than me."

Liu Cheng got up and brewed a pot of tea, and placed two tea cups on the table, waiting for the tea to be brewed.

"Although I keep calling you Lao Xiao, we two are nearly a generation away from the age of nearly a generation. I thought that if nothing unexpected happens, I will retreat in another year or two. The government of Xishu Road is yours, so since three years ago, I intended to make you work harder and I gradually became greedy for comfort. To put it nicely, I want you to adapt as soon as possible, to put it ugly, because I think I'm almost at home and retirement and still care about so much, so I'm lazy."

Xiao Yuanhuai's face turned pale: "I have let down my hope."

"I have written three copies of the recommendation memorial before and after, and His Majesty has never approved it for sure."

Liu Chengzhi poured Xiao Yuanhuai a cup of tea: "You may feel bad when I speak today, and it's all my fault. If I had said more ugly things before, you wouldn't have done this big thing with me... I just reflected on myself, but you are the same. You can just do things by muddle through, and you can't ask if you can ask me if you can. Your Majesty has the wisestness of knowing people, so he has never clearly approved you to come to this palace. It was Your Majesty who saw that you don't have such talent."

Xiao Yuanhuai lowered his head and said nothing.

"I know you are still unwilling to accept it now."

Liu Chengzhi took a sip of tea: "Blame me, blame yourself, and you may not have the chance to be promoted to the Dao Mansion in the future, and you will never even be able to be the Dao Cheng position. If I strongly recommend it, you can't even Dao Cheng, so you don't need to blame me too much... I will retreat with this shame, and you, you may have been carrying it for a longer time than I do. Don't blame Shipo, don't blame anyone else, let alone Your Majesty."

He looked at the hot tea in the cup: "After all, we didn't do it well as officials."

Xiao Yuanhuai: "But sir, that's because the people below are not responsible."

"Then what do you and I do?"

Liu Chengzhi shook his head: "I'll ask you a question, who do we officials do we officials for?"

"For Your Majesty."

“More than that?”

Liu Chengzhi replied: "For Your Majesty, for yourself, for the people, should be put in front of you... When I was young, I understood this truth, but when I was old, I forgot it."

He stood up and said, "I'll go see Ishipodang, you'll do what you should do."

"Sir, Shi Podang may not give us a chance. He sealed the government office and I cannot mobilize the soldiers in the wing. Maybe there are soldiers from the Geng camp in Changhu County. If he wants to seek credit and reward in front of His Majesty, he wants to buy it in front of the people of Western Shu Road, and he will not give us a chance."

"I said that Shipo is not a reckless man."

Liu Chengzhi sorted out his official uniform: "I will go to the cup toast after I have finished talking with Shipodang. You can think about it yourself. If you don't go, I won't force it."

"You really have to kneel down to the people?"

"You...don't go."

After saying this, Liu Chengzhi took Liang Guan and walked out of the study, leaving Xiao Yuanhuai alone sitting there in a daze.

Outside the Taoist government office.

After Liu Cheng came out, he stopped for a while, took a deep breath, then took Liang Guan off and held it in his arms, and bowed deeply to the soldiers around him and the people watching further away.

"What happened today is that I, Liu Cheng, was wrong. The mistake was that I didn't know how to use people. The mistake was that I was lazy and relied on my old age to be a waste of his majesty's trust. If I was wrong, I was wrong. I admit it."

He straightened up and looked at Shi Podang on the high place: "General Shi, can you give me a chance to deal with this matter in person?"

Shi Po jumped down from a high place, threw his sword to his personal soldiers, and walked to Liu Cheng and bowed to him: "I am here to ask the adults to make the decision, but with the adults' disposal, I offend the adults and touched the national law, just because it was not enough to shake the Western Shu Road, and it was not enough to make the adults feel cruel. I will advance and retreat with the adults, and I will write to the court. If the adults are punished, I will accept it together."

After saying that, he took off his iron helmet and hugged it in his arms: "Everyone stepped back and moved away!"

Liu Chengzhi didn't expect Shi Podang to say this and do this. He was a little stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that although he did not think Shi Podang was a reckless man, he did not think that Shi Podang had too many scheming. At this moment, he realized that he was the son trained by Shi Yuanxiong, how bad could he be?

What should be slap, what should be slap is slap.

Toasting the glass table.

Liu Cheng was waiting for the people to gather enough, and the news was released quickly. Before dark, tens of thousands of people had gathered around the cup-raising platform, all of whom looked up at the old man with white hair with his white hair removed.

The old man trembledly put Liang Guan aside, then took off his official uniform and folded it.

The Taoist government was a second-rank official, representing the dignity of the court and the power of His Majesty. Therefore, he did not dare to kneel down in his official uniform and the head of a beam. He was wearing a plain white underwear and slowly knelt down with his hands on the railing.

"I only ask all the villagers and elders to give me a chance to atone for my sins. After dealing with this matter, I will tie myself up and apologize to Chang'an."

The people were shocked.

Xiao Yuanhuai did not come.

Four days later, Changhu County.

Five thousand soldiers mobilized from Kaiyuan City flocked into the county city, and Changhu City suddenly became a mess.

The soldiers of the wing surrounded the county magistrate's office first, and all the yamen in the entire county city were not spared.

It was also on this day that Shen Leng was extremely nervous and stood outside the delivery room. He wanted to go in, but the female official refused. The female official said that it was not good to accompany him. Shen Leng didn't understand why it was not good and wanted to break in, especially when he heard the whimpering cry of Cha, he couldn't help it, but Empress Zhen stood at the door and stopped him, and he had no choice.

"I know you're anxious now."

Concubine Zhen looked back at Shen Leng and said, "No one is more impatient than you, but when you go in, the female officials will be in trouble. What if they delay things because of panic? "

Shen Leng clenched his fists, turned his head to the door and squatted down, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down again.

The female officials who delivered the baby in the palace should be experienced, but isn’t this unreasonable?... They have only delivered the baby once for Concubine Yi over the years, so they are also panicked, especially when Concubine Zhen is guarding the door, and His Majesty said that they will come over in a while, so it would be strange if they are not nervous.

Mr. Shen handed his wine pot to Shen Leng. Shen Leng took it and took a sip. He didn't drink it. He looked at it and didn't open the plug. His hands were nervous and he trembled. A lot of wine spilled out. After drinking a few sips, he didn't work. After handing the wine pot to Mr. Shen, he squatted there with his head in his arms. Because he tried hard, he pulled a lot of his hair off.

Mr. Chen was also nervous, but he had to take it out as an elder.

"You change your face."

Mr. Chen pulled Chen Leng and said, "It's almost bald here. If you pull the other side, it's beautiful to have a symmetry."

Chen Leng snorted: "Sir, I think I'm going crazy."

"Then you can only grab your own, I don't have much."

Mr. Chen took a sip of wine and looked at the delivery room: "Are you worried about the female official in the palace handling this?"

Chen Lengxin said, "I want to rest assured, because the queen was vicious back then, wasn't this the second time a female official in the palace delivered a baby in the past twenty years...

Zhenfei said: "You should be more steady. Cha'er will be more scared than you. If you are not calm, she can hear it in the room."

Chen Leng quickly stood up and took a deep breath again: "Master Cha, don't take it too seriously. Just give it a sloppy child. Just take it as you go to the toilet. With the force of it, Kucha will be done in one go..."

Concubine Zhen: "You'd better stop talking."

In the room, the Cha Ye, who was so painful that his body was covered in sweat, was feeling uncomfortable. He heard the cold shouts and raised his hand to cover his face: "If I laugh now, will it be a bit incompatible with the atmosphere?"

The female official was nervous, so she climbed up to help Cha Ye use force, lowered her voice and said, "Actually, what the general said is almost the same. Just try hard..."

At this moment, His Majesty, who had handled government affairs, slowly walked in from outside. He heard a cold shout at the door. If His Majesty hadn't wanted to save face, he would have wanted to cover his face... whatever he wanted, and Kucha suddenly...

"Chen Leng, come here for me!"

His Majesty shouted at the palace gate, and Chen Leng quickly got up and ran over there and bowed: "Greetings to His Majesty."

"You are more solemn."

His Majesty glared at him: "There are so many people watching inside and outside. You are a first-class marquis at least. You are a third-rank general. Wouldn't it make people laugh if it is spread?"

Chen Leng nodded: "Yes, yes, what Your Majesty said, but I can't help it."

"Say something else and distract your mind."

The emperor was worried that Chen Leng would dare to break the door open and rushed in after a while, so he pointed outside the palace gate. Chen Leng had to follow His Majesty and walked slowly along the path outside the palace.

"I have asked Gu Le to take the people from Tingwei Mansion to investigate the matter of the West Shu Road. I ask you, why don't you write a letter and just come to Liu Cheng, the West Shu Road Road Road, but hand over the matter to Shi Po?"

"Go back to your Majesty."

Chen Leng replied: "Because I can't believe it."

"You are not familiar with Liu Chengzhi, and you don't know him, so why can't you believe it?"

"Because this happened to the West Shu Road, the ministers of the West Shu Road could not believe it."

The emperor frowned slightly: "I am relieved to be an official, but I didn't expect such a big case to happen..."

As soon as he said this, he heard a shout from the wall: "Born!"

Chen Leng turned around and ran in. The emperor was stunned for a moment. He looked back at the silly boy who ran away and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. It was naturally inconvenient for him to enter, so he was waiting for news outside the palace gate. Soon a female official hurried out: "Your Majesty, the princess is born, and the mother and son are safe."

"Safe mother and son? Boy?"

"Twins, one man and one woman."

call!

The emperor let out a long sigh, then raised his head and laughed. No one knew why he laughed so happily.

In the palace gate, Chen Leng rushed towards the room. As soon as he entered the door, the two female officials came over with a baby to let him see. Chen Leng had no intention of seeing the child at all. The two female officials were stunned, thinking why did he still have a father who didn't care about the child?

Chen Leng ran to Cha Ye's bed and squatted down, holding Cha Ye's hand: "How is it? It hurts so much, right? If you can't help but bite me."

Master Cha looked at Chen Leng weakly: "Fool."

"Yeah, right here."

"It really hurts."

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts...what does it hurt? You can't rub it."

Mr. Cha couldn't help laughing, and it hurt even more when he smiled: "Get out and take a good look at the child... I'm fine, I won't have anything to do when you come back."

Chen Leng shook his head: "I won't go anywhere, I'll see the child later."
