Daxianguan

Chapter 442 The reason
Walking outside the court meeting, Chu Xian saw an official from the Yang family talking to a middle-aged official outside.

Chu Xian's heart moved, and he knew that this middle-aged official should be Zheng Guanjie.

This person is not simple, Chu Xian feels that it should be this person's idea to use the Shuzhou case to set up a trap, and Yue Xiaoyun in Jingzhou's sudden investigation of Luo Wenju may also be related to this person.

Someone said before that Yue Xiaoyun, as a censor, is quite fair and genuine, not the kind who can do small tricks. In Chu Xian's view, Yue Xiaoyun's investigation of Luo Wenju may have gotten into other people's affairs. A trap, and this person is probably Zheng Guanjie.

Because among all the four candidates, Zheng Guanjie was the only one who found out that there was no negative news.

This person is smart, but a little too smart.

On the way back, Chu San asked about the court meeting, obviously also concerned about whether Chu Xian could get a new official position, Chu Xian shook his head, and did not elaborate with Chu San.

The two came here on foot, and now they are walking back.

Chu Xian was thinking as he walked, when they were halfway there, someone stopped them in front.

Seeing this person, the stone hanging in Chu Xian's heart fell.

The person blocking the way is Xuan Yuegu.

……

In a secret house in Jingzhou, from the outside, there is nothing special at all, just like ordinary people, but at this moment, in the courtyard, besides Xuanyue Valley, there are several fairy soldiers guard.

These are all masters in the Taoist realm, some are martial sages, some have unparalleled boxing skills, and some have unparalleled swordsmanship, and all of them are the top combat power in the Holy Dynasty.

Chu San was arranged to rest and drink tea in a small room with an isolation formation. Obviously, there were some things that Chu San's level could not know.

And in the main room, there were only Chu Xian and Xiao Yu.

Seeing Xiao Yu, Chu Xian was not surprised. After saluting respectfully, Xiao Yu looked at Chu Xian and asked, "Chu Xian, you don't seem surprised?"

Chu Xian nodded: "The lower official knows that Mr. Zhongshu must have something important to order."

Xiao Yu smiled, and Shen Yu said: "In the future, you will go farther than Huanzhi."

This sentence was full of admiration, but Chu Xian didn't say a word. After all, facing Shangguan's praise, it's wrong to agree or disagree. Smiling and keeping silent is the best way to deal with it.

"At the court meeting, there was a reason why I suddenly stopped the selection of the Secretary of the Criminal Court. According to the situation at that time, you would definitely be selected to become the Secretary of the Criminal Court. In order to stop it, I could only stop it. , because there is a temporary matter to be entrusted to you, and this matter is of great importance."

Xiao Yu went on to say: "What I want to say next, you must not leak it to others. If you leak the news, you will only die."

Chu Xian was serious, and secretly complained, thinking that if it is too troublesome, don't leave it to me, and get promoted, wouldn't it be good to be a criminal officer?

But Chu Xian was just thinking about these words, and he definitely couldn't say them out.

"You are very familiar with Liangzhou, right?" Xiao Yu asked at this time.

Chu Xian nodded: "This official once worked in Dinghai County, Liangzhou."

"There is a prince from the royal family in Liangzhou, do you know this?" Xiao Yu asked again.

Chu Xian still nodded: "The princes of the royal family are resident in Liangzhou, Jiangzhou, Wuzhou and other border states. This is the practice of the Holy Dynasty. The lower officials naturally know that the resident in Liangzhou should be Prince De."

"That's right." Xiao Yu nodded. Most of the officials knew about these things. Then, Xiao Yu lowered his voice and said, "But just yesterday, Prince De of Liangzhou disappeared suddenly."

Chu Xian was startled.

What does missing mean?
A royal prince missing?
This matter is interesting.

Because Chu Xian is a human being, he has insight into some things in the future. As far as he knows, Prince Liangzhou De is not missing. The official news is that he died of illness. A huge change and catastrophe that swept across the holy pilgrimage.

It can be said that the loss was huge.

But at that time, Chu Xian was just a petty official who wasn't even an official. Of course, Chu Xian didn't know the details and ins and outs of these things at the top.

It turned out that the actual situation was that Prince De did not die of illness, but was actually missing.

After thinking about it, Chu Xian understood that from what he knew and remembered, the missing Prince De must have not been found in the last Holy Dynasty, so he could only declare that he died of illness.

After all, compared with disappearance, death from illness is easier to be accepted by people, but even so, it still aroused the royal family's dissatisfaction with the Shoufu Pavilion's control of power, and caused huge conflicts.

In addition, Chu Xian also discovered an amazing thing.

The Shoufu Pavilion actually discovered that Prince De was missing before the royal family.

What does this mean?
It shows that the Shoufu Pavilion has long been secretly monitoring the people of the royal family.

This is a shocking secret, if it is exposed, it will be a big deal.

Although he was aware of this, Chu Xian pretended not to notice. Anyway, at this time, the less he knows, the safer Chu Xian is. One of the descendants of the ancestors, the relationship is very important, his sudden disappearance, naturally it should not be publicized, so it is necessary to investigate secretly, and quickly, to find out this matter, in my opinion, it must be you."

Xiao Yu looked at Chu Xian, waiting for his answer.

Chu Xian's scalp is numb, this job is very tricky, and there is no doubt that Xiao Yu, the master of Zhongshu, must have too many things to hide from himself.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with this. My level is too low, so I just need to be responsible for finding someone.

But the problem is, Chu Xian thinks that this matter is that Prince De disappeared by himself. If he disappears by himself, there will be more ways to play, and there is almost nowhere to check. In other words, this errand is not easy to handle. Huge pit.

Since he knew it was a pit, how could Chu Xian want to jump into it.

So Chu Xian didn't say a word, what he was thinking about was how to get out.

This kind of troublesome thing, if you are not careful, you may fall into it. With your current body, if you really fall into it, you will definitely not be able to get out, so Chu Xian doesn't want to get involved.

But how to refuse is also a science.

And it seems that Xiao Yu Zhongshu is obviously trying to drive ducks to the shelves, and there is no room for Chu Xian to refuse.

"By the way, no matter what happened, the governor of Liangzhou was dereliction of duty. Under his rule, such a major event happened. He cannot be blamed. I have ordered the governor of Liangzhou, son-in-law Guo, to be transferred back to the Jingzhou, check him first, this way, the position of governor of Liangzhou will be vacant, Chu Xian, you can act as deputy governor for the time being, go to the emergency first."

After Xiao Yu finished speaking, Chu Xian was dumbfounded.

what?
Governor of Liangzhou?

Although it is generational and temporary, it is also the governor.

The highest official in charge of a state, the chief official of the frontier, and the emperor of the soil in the mouth of the people.

This is an official position that many officials dream of, and even the vast majority of officials in the holy dynasty can reach the level of governor, which is already in the sky.

To be honest, Chu Xian is of course tempted, even if it is just acting as governor, temporarily, he can exercise the power of governor, but obviously, there is no such good thing in this world.

Chu Xian knew better than anyone else that this generation of governors was just a bait to lure him into the pit.

Because I was going to investigate the disappearance of Prince De, I had to keep it a secret, but if I went to Liangzhou, there was no guarantee that the news would leak and cause suspicion.

Therefore, it is not enough to install an official position.

So what kind of official post?
According to Chu Xian's current official rank, if he is the fifth rank, if he is placed in the state, there are only three positions. One is the Sima of the military mansion. It has to be decided by the generals, general Yu and Da Sima.

Xiao Yu is the order of Zhongshu. Although his official position is high and his power is great, he still can't reach it.

There is also Governor Shi, who can be regarded as the number two person in a state, but relatively speaking, he is not as good as the criminal secretary Zhonglang. Let me ask, Chu Xian can be the criminal secretary Zhonglang, but he wants to go to Liangzhou to be a Chang Shi is even more suspicious.

The only suitable one is the governor.

As the No. [-] figure in the prefecture, the chief official of the frontier is at least more powerful than Zhonglang, the minister of punishment. Although in the prefecture, he has lost the qualification to participate in the court meeting, but relatively speaking, he still has more than enough lose.

It was because of this consideration that Xiao Yu decided to temporarily install Chu Xian with the position of governor. In this way, when he arrived in Liangzhou, Chu Xian was the number one person with great power, and it was much easier to investigate and handle some things.

But obviously, Chu Xian didn't think so. He knew it was a pit, so he definitely wouldn't rush to jump into it, so at this moment, Chu Xian had a strong desire to survive and said: "Prince De is missing, you can call Dongzhu Division to investigate. It’s easier to find out the truth that way.”

Xiao Yu's face sank, and he said directly: "Are you planning to disobey the order?"

Obviously, Xiao Yu had seen Chu Xian's plans long ago, so he blocked all of Chu Xian's detours with one sentence.
If you do it, you will jump into the pit. If you don't do it, you will be disobedient and disrespectful, and you will be cold in the future.

Chu Xian saw sweat on his forehead. After all, Xiao Yu's aura was not a cover-up. Few people could keep calm under Xiao Yu's questioning.

At this time, Chu Xian's face was serious: "Lord Zhongshu, I have made up my mind. When should I leave? I feel that the sooner the better, after all, the matter is urgent and cannot be delayed."

Xiao Yu smiled, with a right expression on his face: "I will give you an hour to go back and prepare, and then someone will send you to Liangzhou to take up the post. By the way, your family will not go for the time being. This matter is settled. You can remove the code word Dai Ci Shi, but it can't be done... Humph, hum!"

The last two hummings made Chu Xian a little uneasy.

Speaking of it, even if Chu Xian was a man of two lifetimes, he was too young than Xiao Yu, let alone other immortal officials. Among the immortal officials, Xiao Yu was considered young and promising.

So dealing with these wily and calculating people is really tiring, especially when the power is not as good as others, you can only be strangled by the neck, and you have to go wherever you are told.
