Luo Gongcao had an ungrateful smile on his face, jumped over Gu Lingshi, and whispered in a low voice.
"I didn't expect that brother, you would actually find such a wonderful place. It must be expensive to listen to a piece of music here..."
"hehe……"
"You're right, come on, come on, Luo Gongcao, hurry in."
"???" After rushing into the yard, except for the old bustard with wrinkles on his face, there were only a few fat and sturdy men who were grinning at him with their bright front teeth exposed.
That's not the point. The point is that the strong men in Te Niang's group all have swords hanging on their waists. They don't look like good people at first glance.
Luo Gongcao's legs went weak, and he almost threw a baby swallow into the forest and ran into the old bustard's arms.
His lips immediately trembled, and he subconsciously turned his head and saw Gu Lingshi blocking the door behind him with a smile, and he couldn't help but trembled.
"You, what do you want to do? This is Luoyang, the capital of the East, and it is not a lawless place."
One of them looked very treacherous when he smiled. It was Li De, the confidant of His Highness King Wu, who almost burst into laughter.
"Oh... you are actually chatting with us. Come on, go in and talk to our Highness or Cheng Sanlang..."
"Your Highness? Cheng, Cheng Sanlang?!" Luo Gongcao's eyes bulged instantly.
After a short meeting, Luo Gongcao, with a dumbfounded look on his face, and the cautious Gu Lingshi sat down in front of Cheng Chubi and Wu King Li Ke, who were sitting in front of Dama Jin Dao.
He looked at the notorious Cheng Chubi who would become his immediate boss in the near future.
There is also the King of Wu Li Ke who can be said to wear the same pants as Cheng Chubi. Among the princes, he is highly trusted by His Majesty and has been entrusted with important tasks many times.
Luo Gongcao felt as if someone had stuffed a frightened deer into his little heart, and it was jumping around like a blind chicken without a care in the world.
"I will see His Highness King Wu, see Cheng, Cheng Luoyang..."
#####
Although now, Cheng Chubi has not yet held a certificate to take up his post and become the new Luoyang Order.
However, how can an old official like Luo Gongcao, who has been in the officialdom for many years and has not been promoted for many years, not know what to say?
As soon as he said this, Cheng Chubi's face, full of false smiles, flashed with a hint of enjoyment.
"Gu Lingshi, you see, this Luo Gongcao is more knowledgeable than you at the beginning."
When Gu Lingshi on the side heard this, he couldn't help but wiped his face and laughed dryly.
Hearing this, Luo Gongcao, a veteran official in the officialdom, was moved in his heart and quickly saluted Cheng Chubi respectfully.
"I wonder what Cheng Luoyang's orders are when he calls the officials here?"
Li Ke leaned close to Cheng Chubi's ear and whispered softly like a dog-headed military advisor doing mischief.
"This kind of old man in officialdom is very slippery, but Gu Lingshi is more down-to-earth..."
"Thank you, dear brother, for reminding me that he is an old official, which means he has his own set of survival skills."
Cheng Chubi touched his chin, picked up a thick booklet on the desk, and threw it away.
Landing steadily in front of Luo Gongcao, Luo Gongcao looked up at Cheng Sanlang in astonishment and took another look at the pamphlet.
Under the signal from the other party's eyes, he copied it anxiously and opened it to take a look.
Luo Gongcao's expression changed instantly, and he threw the pamphlet aside as if he were holding a piece of charcoal, and bowed to Cheng Chubi.
"I also ask Cheng Luoyang and His Highness King Wu not to believe this. This is clearly because he was at odds with his subordinate, Gu Lingshi, and deliberately framed him."
Gu Lingshi on the side saw Luo Gongcao's behavior today, which was very similar to the scene when he saw Cheng Sanlang taking out the dark history of his crimes.
At that time, I also thought that someone was trying to harm me, but in the end, haha... I can only say that the Cheng family should not be underestimated.
I thought that the Cheng family would only act foolishly and mischievously, but now I know that the notorious Cheng Sanlang is so cunning and cunning that even an old official like me cannot resist him.
Gu Lingshi sighed deeply and then spoke.
"Luo Gongcao, you don't have to quibble. How can a small official named Gu be able to investigate so much information in detail?"
Luo Gongcao raised his head suddenly and saw the faces of Cheng Chubi and King Wu Li Ke, who were smiling but not smiling, and their sharp eyes were as sharp as knives.
Instantly, his face turned pale, but in just a few blinks, he jerked his head and looked at Gu Lingshi beside him, and once again worshiped Cheng Chubi devoutly.
"Xiaoguan knows that his sins are serious, and he also asked Cheng Luoyang to give him a chance to atone for his sins. He is willing to do his best for Cheng Luoyang..."
"Haha, it seems that he is indeed a clever man." Cheng Chubi and Li Ke looked at each other and smiled.
"Very good, you have also become a tainted witness. Don't worry, as long as you can exonerate your guilt, Mr. Cheng will definitely not treat you poorly..."
Sure enough, no matter how strong the fortress is, it is easiest to break it from the inside.
And there is no one else who knows and understands the methods and actions of their own superiors better than these old fat men who have been serving as officials under Cui Luoyang for a long time.
Even the evidence collected before about Cui Shen's adultery may not do much harm to him.
However, what these subordinates know is far more detailed than what Cheng Chubi and others sent to investigate.

Cui Shen was sitting in a large and low-key private house across the street from the official residence of Luoyang County Government with a dejected look on his face.
On the side, a maid with beautiful features was sitting on her knees, making tea soup for herself.
Not far away, three pretty maids were playing the piano, flute and flute.
There is also a woman with a hot figure and a charming look, swinging her slim waist softly. This is the fifth concubine he married two years ago.
The beauty's provocative eyes and the melodious music could not arouse Cui Shen's enthusiasm at this moment.
After a long while, he reluctantly smiled at the fifth concubine, stood up, and said that he still had official business to deal with.
He patted his butt, left the fifth concubine with a sad look on his face, and headed towards the study.
Not long after returning to the study, Zheng Zhubo of Luoyang County came to visit him. Cui Shen raised his hand helplessly.
In a short time, Master Zheng came to the study room quickly and saluted Cui Shen.
"Xiaoguan has met Mingfu. Mingfu returned home early today. Xiaguan is very worried about Mingfu's health and came here to visit..."
Cui Shen let out a long sigh and said lazily.
"You're interested. I'm fine physically, but the tone in my heart is really suffocating."
"Yes, I didn't expect that the good situation under the control of the Ming government would be taken away by Cheng Sanlang..."
