Chapter 18 Proclamation
Gao Huan and the others had breakfast in the county government office, and immediately left the county government office under the watchful eye of County Magistrate Zhao.

After the group walked away, Yu Qing looked back at County Magistrate Zhao who was waving frequently, pouted with disdain on his face, and said, "He was born as a scholar in the second list after all, but he didn't expect to be a flatterer. shame."

Zhu Houzhao curled his lips when he heard the words, and said, "People are flattering noble families, why have they ever flattered you?"

"Even in the face of the angels who came to pass the decree, they behaved neither humble nor overbearing, and did not embellish the face of scholars at all."

"Forehead"

Yu Qing blushed from being choked, and quickly put on a smiley face, saying: "Your Excellency's words are absolutely true."

A group of people walked along the street for half an hour, and when they reached a street adjacent to Liu's Mansion, they heard a burst of pleasant nursery rhymes from the street.

"Washing hands in the golden basin, sheep go into the mouth of tigers, families are ruined and people die, and the devil king wanders around."

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help frowning, turned his head and looked at Gao Huan, and said, "It seems that Liu Zhengfeng's washing his hands in the golden basin is not as simple as it seems on the surface."

Gao Huan smiled slightly, looking confident, and said: "Actually, this matter is not as complicated as imagined. It's just that someone wants to take advantage of Liu Zhengfeng's washing his hands in a golden basin to make a wave of his existence."

"Humph"

Zhu Houzhao snorted heavily, glanced at Gao Huan, and said eccentrically: "It's fine if you steal the limelight on weekdays, if someone dares to delay my hero's rescue of the beauty today, hehe, then I will definitely let him have a hard time." Let's go."

Gao Huan smiled dumbly, and said, "Don't worry, I won't rob you."

While the two were talking, the group had already arrived in front of the Liu Mansion, but the lively scene in the Liu Mansion really shocked Gao Huan and the others.

Standing on tiptoe, Zhu Houzhao just glanced inside the gate, and immediately opened his mouth wide in surprise, and said, "There must be more than 1000 people, right?"

Seeing this, Liu Jin also lowered her face, and said sullenly, "Hmph, what a majesty."

Seeing this, Yu Qing quickly took out the impermanence book from his bosom, and read word by word according to the content recorded on it: "Liu Zhengfeng's family is rich, and he often does things that donate money, so he has an excellent reputation."

Zhu Houzhao frowned when he heard the words, and said: "It stands to reason that with Liu Zhengfeng's reputation, there shouldn't be any accidents when he washes his hands in the golden basin, but what happened to the nursery rhyme just now?"

Hearing this, Gao Huan looked over the crowd to look at Liu Zhengfeng, who was surrounded by the crowd with a happy face, and couldn't help sneering, saying: "No matter how great a reputation is, it can't be bigger than human ambition. In this big river and lake, whoever has the biggest fist will win." Having the absolute right to speak, as for the so-called good reputation, it is just a way for some people to accumulate popularity through some small favors and small favors when they have nothing to do. Humans will naturally find a reason for themselves not to act, and rats can always find a reasonable excuse for their cowardice."

Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao glanced at Gao Huan secretly, then nodded silently, and said in his heart: "An insight into the world is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is writing. It seems that Gao Huan has suffered a lot since he was a child."

Right now.

However, the crowd in front of them suddenly gave way to a passage spontaneously, and Liu Zhengfeng, who looked like a rich man, greeted him with a smile, and said: "The angel is here, I am not far away to welcome you, I am disrespectful and disrespectful."

At this time, Cao Shaoqin, who had no sense of presence along the way, squeezed out from the crowd. He first gave Liu Jin behind him an apologetic smile, and when he turned to face Liu Zhengfeng, he immediately showed the prestige of an angel of decree , said: "There is a decree, Liu Zhengfeng accepts the decree."

Hearing this, Liu Zhengfeng immediately knelt down like a jade pillar pushing Jinshan upside down, and raised his voice intentionally: "My lord, Liu Zhengfeng accepts the order."

Liu Zhengfeng's performance, which was almost flattering, immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of everyone present, and there was a burst of whispering in the Liu residence.

When Cao Shaoqin saw this, his face suddenly became gloomy, he squinted his eyes slightly, scanned the faces of everyone in the Liu residence, and shouted sharply: "Quiet!"

Cao Shaoqin's voice immediately had an immediate effect. Although everyone still looked dissatisfied, they still calmed down with dignity.

Although everyone in the room possessed martial arts skills, no one dared to openly sing against the imperial court in public.

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao seemed a little impatient, Liu Jin quickly reminded Cao Shaoqin: "Don't dawdle, just declare the decree."

"Yes."

Cao Shaoqin nodded again and again, cleared his throat immediately, and read out in public: "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said: According to the news from the governor of Hun Province, Liu Zhengfeng, a commoner in Hengshan County, is eager for public justice. , I am indeed conferred the post of general, and will serve the imperial court in the future, and live up to my expectations, I admire this.”

Hearing this, Liu Zhengfeng hurriedly paid homage and said: "The minister leads the decree to thank you, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Liu Zhengfeng's words immediately aroused a burst of discussion among the people present.

Zhu Houzhao automatically filtered out the lies such as "following the trend" and "flattery", and then turned his head to Gao Huan who was standing silently by the side, and said, "This is the end? The whole process was too smooth." right?"

Gao Huan smiled slightly, and said: "The focus of today's affairs is to wash your hands in the golden basin, not to read the imperial decree. This is just the beginning. Just wait patiently for a while, and the good show is about to begin."

While the two were talking, they saw Liu Zhengfeng handing over a tray with a smile, and said with the face of a profiteer and a philistine: "In the future, I will be officials in the same dynasty, and I hope you will take care of me."

Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help frowning, and said, "Why did you give it to me? I'm not an eunuch delivering orders."

Seeing this, Liu Jin hurriedly stepped forward to flatter her and said, "You are born with a rich appearance, and General Liu Shen may regard you as the leader."

"I regard money as dung, how can a mere few hundred taels of silver destroy my Taoism?" Zhu Houzhao said solemnly.

Hearing this, Liu Zhengfeng pursed his lips and smiled, stretched out his hand and lifted off the red cloth covering the tray, revealing more than a dozen large golden ingots, which dazzled Zhu Houzhao for a while.

Zhu Houzhao raised his hand to cover his eyes, with a look of no evil, and said: "Oh, dazzle your eyes, put it away, put it away."

Hearing this, Liu Jin understood immediately, and immediately reached out to grab the tray, picked up the gold, and put it in her arms, muttering in a low voice as she put it back: "Oh, I have never seen so much gold in my life. I grew up eating a lot of food since I was a child, and now I finally found an opportunity to repay the folks and elders, and I plan to use these gold to honor the elders of my hometown, and please take care of me, don’t laugh at me."

"This is also possible?"

Yu Qing was dumbfounded, and secretly glanced at Gao Huan, who was standing silently beside him, and said in his heart: "It's really hard to compare people to others, and you have to throw away goods when you compare goods."

Yu Qing lowered his head silently, and slandered in his heart: "The majestic crown prince, it seems like he has never seen money."

Although Zhu Houzhao is the crown prince, he really has never seen any money. Emperor Hongzhi controlled him too strictly. In the past, he was only allowed to study and practice martial arts in the palace, and he was never allowed to take half a step out of the palace gate. Now seeing him Gradually growing up, and meeting such a rare talent as Gao Huan, I made an exception and allowed him to travel in the palace, and inspect Gao Huan's character and behavior by the way.
