"Brother, what you said makes sense. We are just idle. Why don't we do a few tricks?" His Highness King Wu's voice sounded again.
"Hey, this is a good suggestion. Brother Siwen happens to be here, come on, come on, let them come over with the whole deck of cards."
"..." The expressions of the two men in Xiuyi were like two lions squatting on the front of the Cheng family's mansion, their faces ferocious but did not change much for a long time.
"What to do..."
"What else can we do? Of course we must report the truth."
"Hey, why do these guys like to take advantage of every opportunity to play cards? Is it so interesting?"
"Nonsense, if you don't believe it, you will know later if our brothers do a few tricks, otherwise why would this thing become so popular in Guanzhong..."
In the evening, Li Shimin, who was handling affairs in the palace, received a secret note from Zhao Kun, who had a very strange expression.
After just a few glances, his face turned as dark as the bottom of the copper pot for cooking fish fillets, and he couldn't help but squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth.
"I know that when these little bastards get together, they really try to exploit every opportunity, and it seems like they can't live a good life.",
Seeing His Majesty's expression with black lines on his face, grinding his teeth and muttering under his breath, Zhao Kun tried hard to control his emotions.
In my heart, I was very convinced of Cheng Sanlang and others. This guy was really a young man. He started playing cards when he was in the Imperial Medical Office.
We also played in Donggong, and we continued to have a lot of fun in Luzhou. Even on the plateau, we still played cards loudly.
I had just returned to Datang, and I hadn’t even taken up my new job yet, but I couldn’t wait to get started.
Fortunately, His Majesty is very magnanimous. Well, his magnanimity is much greater than that of Songtsen Gampo, the leader of the Tibetan kingdom who was angered to death by Cheng Sanlang.
"Your Majesty, would you like me to come over?" After seeing His Majesty drop the note, Zhao Kun hurriedly stepped forward to show his loyalty.
"That's all, you can fight if you like. I'll keep this account in mind for that kid first.
If this kid doesn't do well in Luoyang Ling's position later, haha..."
Seeing His Majesty the Emperor with a sinister expression, Zhao Kun swallowed his saliva and thought, sure enough, the familiar scene began again.

"Second Master, there is news from Master Zheng Bo that Cheng Sanlang, who is about to take up the post of Luoyang Order, has not directly handed over to Cui Luoyang."
"Rather, all the affairs and accounts of all county government officials must be checked in detail before being handed over."
The second master of the Zheng family, who was slumped on the couch, sipping the iced grape wine and admiring the dance of a beautiful and graceful young lady, changed his expression.
He raised his hand and waved, and soon the musicians and dancers outside the room retreated outside.
Only he and his confidant who came to report were left.
"What does Cheng Sanlang mean?" the second master of the Zheng family said with a very solemn expression.
"Zheng Zhubo's meaning...it must be that Cheng Sanlang is worried that Cui Luoyang will leave flaws in affairs and let him take the responsibility."
After hearing this, the second master of the Zheng family stood up, stroking his long beard, and a cold light flickered in his narrowed eyes.
"Cheng Chubi...that boy, won't you notice anything?"
"Second Master, I don't think it's a big deal. After all, because His Majesty has frequently traveled between the two places in the past few years, we have never done anything major."
"The big moves are gone, but the small moves are still there..."
Mr. Zheng Er slowly put one hand behind his back and walked around the house while stroking his beard.
"Go and meet Cui Luoyang and see what he says..."
"Although it is a foregone conclusion that he will leave office, and he is a member of the Cui family, I guess he is also very aware of the consequences."
"Okay, sir, I'll be there in a minute."
As soon as he finished speaking, the steward hurried over and delivered Cui Luoyang's handwritten letter.
Mr. Zheng Er raised his brows, took his hand and looked at it carefully. After a long while, he narrowed his eyes and said.
"You don't have to go to Cui Luoyang. You can help me deliver a letter to the eldest master..."
Seeing that the second master of his family changed his mind after receiving Cui Luoyang's handwritten letter, the confidant nodded, took the letter written by the second master Zheng, and soon disappeared into the depths of the dusk.
Mr. Zheng Er walked slowly to the door and opened the thick curtain, feeling a cold chill.
He couldn't help but shiver, and quickly retreated into the warm and comfortable room.
After walking slowly in the room for a long time, he still felt a little uneasy. After thinking about it, he summoned a confidant and whispered in his ear.
The confidant bowed to the Second Master Zheng with understanding. "Second Master, don't worry, I will go and send a message to Master Zheng right now."
"Well, go ahead..."

Luoyang City is a huge city second only to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, with a population of nearly 200,000. For such a large place, it is natural that the data cannot be checked and delivered at once.
What's more, Cheng Chubi is just trying to make things happen, so he has a lot of patience.
But just because he was patient, it didn't mean that others were patient. On the third day, censors began to impeach Cheng Sanlang for personal revenge.
Moreover, he was afraid of difficulties and was unwilling to take over as the magistrate of Luoyang County.
Furthermore, Cui Shen's very tragic self-incrimination excerpt was also directly submitted to Li Shimin's case from the censor.
Li Shimin, who was sitting behind the imperial desk, looked at the well-written and calligraphy document, which contained an emotional apology and apology.
Although his face was calm, he couldn't help but feel a little achy in secret.
Cheng Sanlang, this brat, has not completed the delivery after three days. What does he want to do? Maybe he hasn't played enough cards yet.
We can no longer let him continue to slack off and derelict in his duties. Since he is unwilling to move, then I will let him move.

Cheng Chubi was staying in the Luoyang County Yamen at the moment. Although he had not completed the transaction with Cui Shen, he was very clear about everything in the Yamen.
This guy has become the master of Luoyang County Government, and at this moment, he is sitting behind the desk, looking at the population account book that was just submitted.
Master Zheng was standing aside at this moment. It had only been three days, but he looked haggard.
The whole person seemed to have aged several years, and every day of these three days made him feel like he was passing through the days like years.
Fortunately, Master Zheng was secretly glad that Cui Luoyang had already prepared for a rainy day. With his reminder, he had already made preparations early.
Cheng Chubi carefully compared the population changes in Luoyang County over the years, and from time to time he would write and draw on the paper beside him with his special pen.
After a long time, the corners of Cheng Chubi's mouth finally slowly raised. "Zheng Zhubo..."
"I'm here, I wonder what Taibao Xiao Cheng's orders are?" Master Zheng's heart skipped a beat and he quickly bowed respectfully.
"These data of yours are not fake, right?"
"!!!"
I’m back home, and finally I don’t have to be so tired anymore. Work hard!
