Dynasty Summons: Low-key Hegemony

Chapter 63 Turning Point
The next day was the day when the six county guards were called together.

In the lobby of Prince Chu's Mansion, Li Yuanju sat in the main seat, and below were six imposing men, who looked like they were high-ranking figures.

That's right, these six people are the six sheriffs of Lingyang Mansion, and they arrived as promised.

Six people lined up from left to right, respectfully saluted Li Yuan:

"My minister, Lei Yunfei, governor of Yueyang County, pays his respects to the prince."

The first person on the left to speak was Lei Yunfei, governor of Yueyang County, with a calm demeanor and a dignified appearance.

The second man who spoke was Ma Wenhong, the governor of Fengyang County. There was a sense of heroism in his words and actions:
"My minister, Ma Wenhong, governor of Fengyang County, pays his respects to the prince."

With Li Yuan nodding, the other four sheriffs with different temperaments and appearances respectfully introduced themselves one by one:

"My minister, Tao Lintao, governor of Yunyang County, pays his respects to the prince."

"My minister, Zheng Shunfa, governor of Ziyang County, pays his respects to the prince."

"My minister, Wu Zhixiong, governor of Lianyang County, pays his respects to the prince."

"My minister, Zhou Xinghua, governor of Huiyang County, pays his respects to the prince."

"Everyone, please get up."

Li Yuan supported them with both hands, motioning for them to get up.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

After saluting respectfully, the six people sat on both sides under Li Yuan's signal.

"This king has been in Lingyang Mansion for some time. The counties are stable and the people are peaceful. The guards of the counties have contributed a lot."

The six people had a tacit understanding, and they didn't need to look at each other. They responded in unison:

"Thanks to His Royal Highness, I am worthy of honor for doing my duty."

"You don't need to be humble. The purpose of my king calling you here today is not only to meet you, but also to trouble you."

Li Yuan's tone paused, and his eyes scanned everyone's expressions.

The faces of the county guards below turned straight, and they all showed the appearance of listening attentively.

"You also know that this king has been in the palace all this time and doesn't know much about political affairs in various places, but you have been in charge of the affairs of the people in various counties for many years, and you have been living in peace.

Therefore, this king has no intention of being in charge of all the affairs of Lingyang Mansion, and has to trouble the county guards to continue to deal with the affairs that happened in each county, to keep the people safe and to share the worries of this king. "

The eyes of the six county guards moved slightly, they looked at each other, and immediately stood up, showing emotion at the right time, knelt down in the center of the hall and said in unison:
"Willing to be loyal to His Highness, and will never betray His Highness's trust."

"Ok!"

Li Yuan was very satisfied with the attitude of the county guards, he waved his hands and said: "Before you paid tribute to the court, you can just pay tribute to this king, and this king will not interfere too much."

"Yes!"

"Your Highness, don't worry!"

"Never let His Highness worry!"

Each of the six county guards spoke righteously and showed allegiance.

"Of course, I don't like trouble, but it doesn't mean I won't solve it. You won't make me feel troubled!"

Li Yuan's momentum changed, and he squinted his eyes and said: "During this period of time, there have been a lot of troubles in the capital city for me to solve, which makes me extremely bored. If such troubles happen again in the counties..."

Li Yuan glanced at the crowd, everyone's heart trembled, they all understood Li Yuan's last words, they all cupped their hands and said respectfully:

"We will obey His Highness's orders wholeheartedly, serve His Highness, and will never cause His Highness any trouble!"

"it is good!"

Li Yuan smiled softly, and his tone became closer.

Immediately, the dignified atmosphere relaxed, all the county guards were waiting to cater to you, and there were all kinds of laughter in the lobby.

Soon Xiao Ye Zi quickly walked into the lobby and came to Li Yuan's side, whispering softly.

Li Yuan frowned slightly.

Seeing this scene, Wu Zhixiong and Ma Wenhong looked at each other with a sneer in their hearts.

I am finally coming!
"Hey!" Li Yuan rubbed his brows, with a helpless look on his face, and said to Xiao Ye Zi: "Let the princess come in."

"Everyone, I have an unfeeling request. My concubine is a person who can't stay idle. She followed me to Lingyang Mansion. She insisted on clamoring and telling me about her ability and ability. A place to exercise."

Li Yuan faced the crowd with helplessness in his eyes:
"This king is really more stubborn than the concubine, and I promised to let her manage the three cities, to exercise, to see and see.

Those who are near do not want to go, but those who must go far.

What do you think should be done? "

The six county guards crossed each other from the corner of their eyes, and from the corner of their eyes they faintly looked at Wu Zhixiong.

Before coming here, everyone knew what was going on. Now that the scene is over, it's time to get down to business.

Sure enough, the short and chubby Wu Zhixiong was full of surprise, stepped forward, and respectfully said to Li Yuan:

"Your Highness, the princess is very intelligent. It is a blessing for the common people to share His worries. I happen to have three city masters in Lianyang County who are in trouble. I just want to ask Your Highness to dismiss the three of them. Now it is just right for the princess to take over the three cities."

"Oh?"

Just as Li Yuan raised his doubts, Chu Qingyan's sweet voice sounded outside the hall:
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu!"

A light figure stepped into the lobby, and quickly came to Li Yuan with a beautiful smile, and his moving eyes quickly scanned the six sheriffs.

Li Yuan looked at Chu Qingyan with a doting look:
"Princess, you are here. This king was still talking to the county guards about what he promised you."

"Oh?" Chu Qingyan opened her bright eyes with surprise.

"Really, Your Highness, you have agreed to my request."

"Of course, what this king promised you will always be remembered." Li Yuan said very gently.

The six sheriffs below were expressionless, quietly watching the two disgusting performances.

When Li Yuan and Chu Qingyan turned their gazes downward, the six county guards including Wu Zhixiong showed friendly smiles and said respectfully:
"Meet the princess!"

Chu Qingyan smiled, and just as she was about to speak to everyone, Li Yuan guessed what she wanted to say, and did not give her the right to choose other counties, and stopped her:

"Princess, this is Governor Wu. According to Governor Wu, there are just three cities in Lianyang County that you can take over."

"Lianyang County?"

Chu Qingyan stared blankly, looking down at Wu Zhixiong, who looked like a fat pig with a fat head and big ears, a murderous intent arose in his heart, even though he had already expected it in his heart, he was still a little unwilling and said:
"Your Highness, is there no city in other counties that I can take over?"

Facing Chu Qingyan's pleading eyes, Li Yuan's heart remained calm, and he smiled softly:

"This king can't help it. The other city owners manage the city well. This king can't just replace them for no reason."

Hmph, Li Yuan is really ruthless, but it's a pity that he is a master at chess!

With a sneer in her heart, Chu Qingyan turned her eyes to the other five sheriffs below, and finally fixed her eyes on a person, who took a step.

Zhou Xinghua, governor of Huiyang County!
I saw Zhou Xinghua respectfully said:

Your Highness, the concubine is extremely intelligent, and it is a blessing for the common people to want to share his worries. In my Huiyang County, there are also three city masters who are at a disadvantage in their affairs. I just want to ask your highness to dismiss the three of them. Now it is just right for the concubine to take over the three cities. "

Li Yuan, Wu Zhixiong and others narrowed their eyes.

The corners of Chu Qingyan's mouth rose invisibly.

Zhou Xinghua belonged to her sister Chu Junyan. In a letter a few days ago, Chu Junyan decided to expose Zhou Xinghua and let Chu Qingyan have a relatively safe base.
