Zhao Gao and Hu Hai in the next cell heard the conversation between Li Si and Ran Fang and had some thoughts in their hearts.
Especially for Zhao Gao, the flood in Sishui County is no secret to him. In previous years, he would get involved in it just to make a fortune.
I just didn't expect that Li Si would come to question Ran Fang in person.
No matter how you look at it, this thing is weird.
And he also heard Ran Fang's suggestion just now. If he really followed Ran Fang's method, then this road would be blocked in the future.
After all, it doesn't matter if the victims eat a little less, they will die if they die!
But when this group of disaster victims became workers, it was different!
Once they are deducted, they will definitely gather to make trouble!
As long as it is noticed, it will cause countless troubles!
If you want to make money again, it will be extremely difficult!
Destroying someone's financial path is like killing one's parents!
This Ran Fang is too hateful!
"Second Young Master, your opportunity has come!"
Hu Hai was stunned for a moment. He was just thinking about the profitable tea that Ran Fang said. Suddenly he heard Zhao Gao's words and he couldn't keep up.
"Sir, what chance?"
Knowing that Hu Hai couldn't be counted on, Zhao Gao cursed in his heart a fool, then glanced in the direction next door to make sure no one was coming, and then spoke.
"If you go to Sishui County to provide disaster relief, someone from the imperial court must go there."
"Now that Ran Fang has a solution, it doesn't matter whoever does it. As long as he does it, it's a good opportunity to get credit!"
"Second Young Master, don't you want to fight for it?"
"Master Fusu is still in prison, and His Majesty will definitely not let him out. It is most appropriate for you to go and comfort the victims."
After listening to Zhao Gao's analysis, Hu Hai also nodded.
Indeed, there are disasters in the local area every year, and the governor of Sishui County has already had a way to deal with it. Every time the officials who go to provide disaster relief come back safe and sound, then there is no problem in going there by yourself.
However, seeing that he was now in jail, he said with some embarrassment: "But... I am also in Xianyang Prison now, how can I get out?"
Zhao Gao smiled slyly at him and said in a low voice: "Second Young Master, don't worry, I estimate that I will be able to go out in the next few days. When the time comes, I will help you fight for this opportunity."
"As long as you agree, my slave will handle the rest for you."
Hearing this, Hu Hai was suddenly moved and inexplicably moved!
In this world, Zhao Gao is the only one who truly cares about himself.
"Sir, how can you and I get out of this Xianyang Prison?"
Zhao Gao shook his head and said nothing.
He couldn't help but think of the day when Li Si came to see him. At that time, Li Si must have heard something and came to warn him.
In the past few days, His Majesty should have investigated clearly. The incident had nothing to do with him. At most, he was not strict in disciplining Hu Hai, so he would not be locked up for too long.
In addition, Li Si was involved, and such a big thing happened in the court. It was natural for him to go out, and there was no need to think too much.
Seeing that he remained silent, Hu Hai did not pursue him and asked. Anyway, he had always believed in Zhao Gao's words.
Sure enough, someone from the palace came to Xianyang Prison the next morning, and took advantage of Ran Fang and Fusu's training to personally welcome Zhao Gao out of the side door.
Following the people in the palace and walking through the familiar road, Zhao Gao knew that he had really come out this time.
This time, he must act cautiously and not give Ran Fang another chance to take advantage of him.
When he arrived at Zhangtai Palace, Zhao Gao didn't even have time to look at the other people in the hall, so he knelt down in the hall with a bang. He didn't even have time to wipe away the tears in his eyes, and spoke in a trembling voice: "See - Your Majesty - —”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for sparing your life. I will stay with Your Majesty in the future and protect Your Majesty with my life!"
"Your Majesty - I miss you -"
If there were outsiders here, hearing the sadness in his words, they would even feel the urge to burst into tears.
But Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the high platform, seemed not to hear what he said. He sat there with no expression on his face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
He just looked at Zhao Gao as he knelt on the ground and twitched, looking like he was crying.
After a while, his voice came slowly from the high platform, and he said in a very calm tone: "Get up."
Such a tone made Zhao Gao's heart skip a beat.
He didn't expect Ying Zheng to be so cold, as if he couldn't hear the regret in his words, and he couldn't feel Ying Zheng's "trust" in him.
But he still stood up respectfully and said loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After saying that, he just stood there, not daring to say a word.
Now that he couldn't figure out what Ying Zheng was thinking, he had to focus on Li Si standing there, but he didn't get any information.
He glanced at the other ministers, and when he saw the doctor's order, Ma Guanglu, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
Why is this person here?
Just when Zhao Gao was confused, Li Si walked to the middle of the hall.
"Your Majesty, I have personally gone to Xianyang Prison and obtained a solution to the flood in Sishui County."
With that said, Li Si told Ying Zheng what Ran Fang said in Xianyang Prison, word for word.
In fact, it was mainly to tell the ministers present. After all, one person had to be chosen to go to Surabaya County in the end. This was the habit in previous years.
After speaking, Ying Zheng frowned slightly and looked at the people in the audience.
There are so many ministers in the court, but they are not as good as Ran Fang alone.
How sad and deplorable!
Thinking of the corruption mentioned by Ran Fang yesterday, Ying Zheng's eyes couldn't help but become a little colder.
These people have participated in flood relief in previous years.
"I won't investigate the past matters for the time being. You can just know what happened in your mind."
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked.
Although these words are plain, they make people break into cold sweat.
Especially Li Si, he knew that what Ran Fang said yesterday could not be concealed from Ying Zheng. If Ying Zheng investigated the corruption case, many people would be involved.
Ying Zheng saw the appearance of everyone and felt a little cold in his heart, but he also knew that now was not the time to argue about this matter. The top priority was disaster relief.
"The flood disaster can be solved. Is there any candidate for this job?"
Ma Guanglu immediately stepped forward, bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, although the disaster in Sishui County is somewhat troublesome, it is not the first time it has happened. I think we should send someone who is familiar with the local situation."
"Therefore, I recommend Xu Yuwen, Lord Xu, to be ordered to Taicang!"
Ying Zheng glanced at Xu Yuwen and seemed not to be particularly satisfied with this person.
He glanced around at the officials in the hall and asked again, "Are there any other candidates?"
Now that they already know Ying Zheng, since they ask this, they are dissatisfied with the current candidate.
Thinking of this, Zhao Gao took a step forward and said in a very respectful manner: "Your Majesty, I have a candidate for you."
