Chapter 213 Consecutive Promotion to Six Levels
Since the man in black suddenly woke up just now, Hu Qian has been paying attention to the movement of these two people. Seeing him now, he immediately shouted: "Master Xing, quickly back away!"

Although Xing Ziming didn't know what was going on, he also knew that Hu Qian wouldn't be aimless, so he ran away immediately.

At this moment, the head of the man in black suddenly flew up, and when he opened his mouth, a black light hit Hu Qian.

Hu Qian was taken aback, and immediately jumped into the distance.

However, as if the black light had found its target, it also chased after it.

Hu Qian swept over with a demon-slaying sword light, and the black light was immediately dispersed.

The head was about to move again, but Hu Qian's second sword light had already arrived, cutting it in two in an instant, one of the blood-red butterflies flew out suddenly, and was about to flee immediately.

Hu Qian naturally wouldn't give it such a chance, and another sword light swept it down.

"Master Xing, is there a fire?"

Xing Ziming immediately took out the fire folder, and Hu Qian lit the clothes on the corpse, and picked out the butterfly and the head.

After a while, the clothes were burned, but the body was not burned much.

Hu Qian stared at the corpse, and then said: "Master Xing, wake them up quickly!"

Xing Ziming was frightened a few times, and he still has lingering fears at this moment, but seeing that the sky is about to dawn, if he doesn't take the money, the seven-star leeches will start to move.

Thinking of this, he hastened to call one by one, kicking them if they couldn't wake them up, and finally woke them up.

After a while, everyone woke up, and when they saw the corpse beside Hu Qian, they all turned pale with horror.

Xing Ziming shouted, "Quickly get the money!"

In the end, I hurried and hurried, and finally took out the tax money before dawn, counted the amount, 1104 million taels, one tael is not a lot!

Xing Ziming was overjoyed, "Hurry up! Put the tax money into boxes!
Come, Pegasus report to the emperor!Let's say the tax bank has been found! "

Everyone got busy, but Hu Qian was still guarding beside the man in black, with the Long Yuan sword stuck aside, watching quietly.

Xing Ziming stepped forward and said: "Master Hu, there is still a long way to go to the capital, can you please protect the tax bank..."

Hu Qian nodded. Now that he has reached this point, it is not too late.

In the morning, Zhang Shengyang and his group rushed back dejectedly. Seeing the situation here, they immediately widened their eyes in shock. Seeing that there were still people filling the pit, they immediately asked, "What's going on? Mr. Xing and the others Woolen cloth!"

"Master Hu found the tax bank last night, and now they are going to the capital with the tax bank."

"I found it... I found it!

Very good!
No, I have to hurry! "

After speaking, he rode his horse and chased in the direction of the capital.

Not a day later, Hu Qian and others arrived in the capital, and after handing over the tax money, they were passed on to the Golden Palace.

Emperor Guangde said, "Where is Zhang Shengyang?"

Zhang Shengyang immediately knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty."

"In the process of looking for the tax bank, you made a lot of tricks, and you were even tricked out of Liang Jing. Is there such a thing?"

"Your Majesty, this..."

"Although the tax money has been recovered, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. He will be dismissed from the post of chief executive and sent to the southeast to serve as an army."

"Your Majesty, I have contributed a lot to the imperial court. Over the years, there has been hard work without merit. Please forgive me!"

"If you dare to say a word more, push it out and chop it!"

Zhang Shengyang's face turned pale, and he didn't dare to speak again.

Emperor Guangde said again: "Xing Ziming, the magistrate of Shannan, was demoted to a fellow magistrate, and he was fined for two years."

Xing Ziming was still complaining, but after seeing what happened to Zhang Shengyang, he suddenly felt a lot better, and quickly knelt down to thank him.

"In the case of the theft of tax money, Hu Qian made the first contribution. He was promoted to the general judge of Shannan Prefecture and promoted to Cheng Delang."

Hu Qian was about to thank you, when suddenly a minister said: "Your Majesty, Hu Qian's term of office has not been completed for one year, according to the law, he cannot be promoted."

Emperor Guangde was taken aback for a moment, then hesitated and said: "Hu Qian has many merits, and he may make an exception for promotion."

As soon as these words came out, several ministers immediately said: "Your Majesty, the law of the ancestors cannot be abolished.

Once this wind blows, I am afraid that many officials will resort to fraud for their merits, causing endless harm. "

The following voices followed one after another, and Emperor Guangde was furious and said angrily: "Okay, Hu Qian will be transferred after the one-year term in Guobei County expires.

But instead of being transferred to the general judge of Shannan Prefecture, he was transferred to the deputy envoy of Ji Jiang's inspector! "

"Your Majesty, this is an important position of the fourth rank. He has been promoted from the seventh rank to the fourth rank. This..."

"What is this? Could it be that there is a stipulation in the ancestral law that you can't go up to six levels in a row!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and seeing Emperor Guangde's displeasure, they didn't dare to say anything more.

At this moment Fu Tianchou, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, suddenly came out of the shift and said, "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Guangde suppressed his anger, "Say."

Fu Tianchou said: "Your Majesty, I am very much in favor of Hu Qian being appointed as the deputy envoy of the inspector, but Hu Qian has outstanding talents and the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods. Can he be allowed to go to Dongming and serve as the deputy inspector there? job?"

Hu Qian was taken aback.

Dongming is a large coastal province, much richer than Jijiang, but it is the center of the southeast war, and the previously lost city of Tongjiang is located in Dongming.

Not only did everyone think it was very appropriate, Emperor Guangde also nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, with Hu Aiqing's ability, she is indeed qualified for this position."

After the reward and punishment, Emperor Guangde asked again: "What happened to the man in black? Why did he rob tax money?"

Hu Qian said: "Your Majesty, please send the man in black to the palace."

Emperor Guangde then waved his hand and brought the rest of the men in black to the hall.

Hu Qian knew that Emperor Guangde would definitely ask about the origin of the thief, so he beat the man in black to pieces before he came.

Seeing him paralyzed on the ground at this moment, he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, please allow me to ask questions."

Emperor Guangde nodded.

Hu Qian walked up to the man in black and shouted, "Wake up!"

The man in black opened his eyes, looked at Hu Qian, and immediately fell into a nightmare.

"who are you?"

"Ah Gui, a Warlock from Southern Border."

"What about the dead one?"

"It's my master Li San."

"Why do you want to rob tax money?"

"The dog emperor is fatuous and unreasonable. Killing our people in southern Xinjiang and robbing them of tax money can cut off their supply and cause civil strife, so we can take the opportunity to send troops."

Emperor Guangde's face darkened, and he was too angry to speak.

Hu Qian said: "How did you know the escort route of the tax bank?"

When everyone in the hall heard this, they immediately pricked up their ears.

"Jinwu Guard Qin Guoyuan is our internal response, and he told us the escort route."

Emperor Guangde's expression was serious, but he still didn't say a word.

"Besides him, is there any other internal response?"

"Yes, but I don't know who it is."

"How did you steal the tax money?"

"We ambushed on the official road in advance, prepared drugs and seven-star leeches, and waited for them to come, first stunned people, then drove the seven-star leeches to open the lock, swallowed the silver, and then burrowed into the ground to escape from below. "

Everyone's spine felt chills when they heard it, and their complexions became even more complicated when they thought that there were other people's internal responses in the court.

Emperor Guangde nodded, "Come here, take this person into the prison!"

When it was getting late, Hu Qian found an inn and planned to return to Guobei early the next morning.

However, as soon as he settled down, someone came to find him.

"Well, Hu Jinggong, you are hiding here!"
