Wait, the reason why Yang Yingxiong became the prefect was because he was promoted by Mr. Yingge, and Mr. Yingge was the brother of the Queen and the most loyal second elder brother. According to what the fourth elder brother said, he
The reason why he narrowly escaped death in Fuzhou was because of his second elder brother. If Yang Yingxiong really knew about this and told Ying Ge, then his fourth elder brother would be in danger.
But there is still one thing that doesn't make sense. There is no need for a memorial to talk to Inge about this matter. What is going on?
Bu Qi was very curious about the contents of the memorial, but he also knew that if Yang Yingxiong really wanted to hide something from him, he would never let him read the contents of the memorial.
Thinking like this, Bu Qi picked up the tea that had been sitting for a while and slowly took a sip. When he was about to put it down, his hand shook and the tea cup overturned, and all the tea inside was poured onto Yang Yingxiong's sleeve.
The man was so hot that he immediately retracted his hand, and this action also revealed the memorial he was holding under his hand.
Buqi's eyes flashed, and he quickly reached out to take the memorial, but as soon as his hand touched it, a hand still stained with tea leaves pressed firmly on the memorial, "Buqi, what are you doing?"
Bu Qi raised his head and saw that it was Yang Yingxiong with an angry face. Unexpectedly, this old guy reacted so quickly and suppressed the memorial at once, preventing him from getting it.
Bu Qipi said with a smile: "Didn't your Excellency just say that it was just a trivial matter? Why is there a memorial? What kind of trivial matter should be presented to the emperor? Although the rank of the lower official is not as good as that of your Excellency, at least he is an official of Zhengzhou Mansion.
As long as it is a matter of the Zhengzhou Prefecture, no matter how big or small, the lower officials have the right to know, sir, do you think so?"
"Even so, this is the memorial I presented to the emperor. Without my consent, you are not qualified to read it." Yang Yingxiong did not expect that Bu Qi actually found the memorial he had pressed under his sleeve, and even tried to take it on the pretext of spilling the tea.
When I read this memorial, I had to be quick-sighted, otherwise I would have succeeded in his evil plan.
Buqi sneered and said: "As the saying goes, if you don't do anything bad in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. Sir, you are so nervous. Is there something ulterior in this memorial?"
"You're talking nonsense. If I act upright and sit upright, there's nothing ulterior motives can be told. But Buqi, you actually dare to talk to me like this. You're really arrogant. Or are you relying on your appearance of being a first-class official?"
Brother, don’t you take me seriously?”
"How dare I dare, but I believe that as the magistrate of the state, I have the absolute right to know what happened in Zhengzhou Mansion, sir, to report to the court?" At this point, although they haven't broken their hearts yet, they are almost there, and Buqi has nothing to be taboo about anymore.
Seeing Buqi's tough attitude, Yang Yingxiong knew that he had become suspicious of him, so he stopped pretending to be polite and sneered: "Buqi, you and I have been officials in Zhengzhou for these years, and you have always been against me.
Do you really think that I don’t know anything about my words? I won’t tell you. I’m just giving your cousin some face so as not to embarrass everyone. But I will give you
You are so polite, but you take it as a natural blessing, and you continue to push the envelope. It is true that your cousin is from the first rank, and the party was attached to the fourth elder brother before, but now the fourth elder brother is gone, and Queen Xiaoshengxian has also passed away. Even before
No matter how proud you are, no matter how favored the emperor is, it is useless. When a person dies, everything will return to nothing. I believe that your cousin's life in the capital is not as glorious as before."
Yang Yingxiong's words hit the mark. In the past, Bu Qi would not dare to contradict Yang Yingxiong no matter how angry he was. But now the situation is different. He knows that the prince is still alive and not dead. As long as the prince can return.
Beijing, the current disadvantages will all be turned into advantages.
Yang Yingxiong lowered his head and glanced at the memorial he was holding down, and said: "Buqi, if you step down now, I can pretend that nothing has happened. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
"My lord, when have you ever been polite to a subordinate?" Bu Qi said as he put more force on his hands and tried hard and slowly to take the memorial away from Yang Yingxiong.
Master Liu saw this and quickly stepped forward to persuade him: "Both of you are ministers of the Zhengzhou Prefecture. Please don't let any trivial matter hurt your harmony."
"Shut up!" Buqi scolded unceremoniously: "I am talking to the prefect, when will it be your turn as a little master to interrupt!"
This was the first time that Mr. Liu was scolded by Bu Qi like this, and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment. Although he did not hold an official position, he was still a popular person around Yang Yingxiong. Normally, anyone in the prefect's yamen would not dare to give him some face.
, scolding is something that has never happened before.
As he spoke, half of the memorial was already in Buqi's hands. He just heard him say: "Sir, I have decided on this memorial today. If you insist on denying it, don't blame me for being rude."
It was related to Hongli's safety, so Bu Qi didn't care even if he completely fell out with Yang Yingxiong. He was the magistrate here after all, and he didn't believe that Yang Yingxiong could cover the sky with one hand.
The threat in Bu Qi's words was obvious. He was born as a bannerman. Although he was a civil servant, he had practiced boxing since he was a child. And that Yang Yingxiong was a Han Chinese and had no power to tie a chicken. There was really going to be a conflict.
Yang Yingxiong was simply not strong enough for him to hit with one punch. As for the court blaming him...hehe, he had done a good job in protecting the crown prince. The court had not yet given him a reward, so how could he be punished?
Yang Yingxiong was very angry. This Buqi actually dared to talk to him like this. It was a rebellion. Yang Yingxiong could not wait to have someone come in and arrest him immediately.
Uh, wait a minute, the memorial clearly states that Buqi will be escorted to Beijing for trial. In other words, we can start now. The only trouble is that if the news of Buqi's arrest spreads, it will alert the people hiding in Buqi.
If the Fourth Brother and others in the Qi Mansion were allowed to escape, he would not be able to explain to Lord Yingge.
However, Yang Yingxiong soon felt relieved. He had the highest official position in this government office. As long as he continued to explain and no one was allowed to leak the matter, I believe that no one would be so troublesome as to go against him as the prefect.
As soon as the secret guards arrive, they can arrest Si Age and the others, and then...
Thinking of this, Yang Yingxiong showed a malicious smile, and at the same time, he loosened his hand that had been holding the memorial tightly, letting Bu Qi take the memorial in his hand.
Buqi only thought that Yang Yingxiong was threatened by him and didn't think much about it. What he wanted to know most now was what was actually written in the memorial.
While Bu Qi was concentrating on reading the memorial, Yang Yingxiong whispered something to Master Liu, who nodded and quietly left the room without Bu Qi paying attention.
Bu Qi became more and more angry as he read the memorial. After finally finishing it, he slammed the memorial onto the wet table, pointed at Yang Yingxiong's nose and said, "How dare you, Yang Yingxiong, frame me falsely?"
Yang Yingxiong sneered and said: "How can I frame you falsely, Buqi? Do you dare to say that you have never received a penny since you became an official?"
