Governor Ji brought several of his followers into the mansion, and then followed the steward to the reception room in the front yard.
The steward asked someone to serve tea and asked him to wait for a while before going to report to the prince.
Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu had already had dinner and were walking in the garden with Concubine Xie and others. When they heard the steward coming to report, they left and went to see Governor Ji first.
The two of them arrived at the front living room. Governor Ji had been waiting for a while and was looking at the layout of the living room.
He thought this should be one of the many reception rooms in the palace. It didn't look like anything special, but when he looked carefully, he was shocked because the calligraphy and paintings hanging here were all authentic!
Therefore, he felt that although the layout of these living rooms may be the same and the furnishings are similar, the calligraphy and painting are still different and each has its own characteristics.
In order to get a governor's position as a gift to Mr. Yan Ge in the capital, he tried his best to find out from Yan Tingting that Mr. Ge liked this painter's paintings, so he spent a lot of money to buy such a pair, which happened to be
It was sent to Mr. Yan Ge's heart, so he got the position of Daizhou.
Who knew... He was actually sent to Xiao Xian's territory. Mr. Yan Ge must have tricked him.
On second thought, he thought that Yan Ge Lao Zhong might be using him, so he asked him to monitor Xiao Xian.
Just as he was thinking wildly, Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu arrived. Although Governor Ji felt that Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu were no longer the princes and princesses of Da Qin, and there was no need for him to salute first, but for some reason, he started to
His heart was pounding, and his palms were so nervous that his palms were sweating. He always felt like the chair he was sitting on seemed to have thorns sticking into his butt, making him jump up and down.
Then when he saw the corners of Xiao Xian's black robe with gold patterns, he suddenly lost his composure and rushed forward and bowed deeply, "On behalf of the governor of the state, he is attending the visit of King Yan and the princess."
He still used all his strength not to kneel down.
Xiao Xian didn't care. He waved his hand and said, "Governor Ji, there is no need to be polite. Now I am no longer a prince."
Governor Ji heard that his tone was calm, but there was no sign of resentment. He was secretly surprised in his heart, but he did not dare to take it lightly. Although Xiao Xian said that he was not a prince, if others did not respect him according to the etiquette of a prince, he was afraid that
There is no good fruit to eat.
Otherwise, why would he occupy half of Daizhou?
You know, if the prince doesn't do it anymore, what kind of fiefdom do you need? Isn't it true that there is no three hundred taels of silver here? Let's just pretend.
Governor Ji naturally did not dare to say it.
Xiao Xian waved his hand for him to take a seat, and Governor Ji sat down carefully. Although Xiao Xian did not ask him why he came, he did not dare to wait for Xiao Xian to ask, so he could only tell the emperor's imperial edict himself.
After saying that, he said with a troubled face: "Your Majesty also knows that the lower officials are in trouble. Your Majesty is here, which is a blessing for the lower officials and what the common people can't ask for. But your Majesty feels that your Majesty stays here, reclaiming wasteland, etc.
But you still have to pay taxes. I wonder what the prince wants?"
Xiao Xian chuckled and looked at Governor Ji, "What do you think, Governor Ji?"
Governor Ji's sweat dropped immediately. He felt that what could he feel? What did he think was useless? He actually thought that Xiao Xian had better pay the tax, but if Xiao Xian was good at it, he would have paid it long ago.
, why bother waiting for the emperor to ask questions?
