"My official feels that the imperial court seems to believe the rumors about rebellion in the capital." Pei Hong seemed not to hear the sarcasm in Liu Hong's tone.
Liu Hong's face sank and he said: "Bold, do you know that you are trying to figure out the holy will and deliberately misinterpreting the imperial court's meaning?"
"I'm just telling you one more fact." Pei Hong didn't give in.
The governor was a higher official than him, but he had the support of the Donglin Party behind him, and as a governor who led the emperor to patrol the area, when facing Liu Hong, he naturally did not behave like ordinary local officials when facing the governor.
Liu Hong said angrily: "Okay, okay, okay, that's great. Since you insist that the Tiger Character Flag is plotting rebellion, I would like to ask you if there is any evidence to prove that the Tiger Character Flag is plotting rebellion."
"I have no evidence." Pei Hong shook his head slightly, and then said, "Since the imperial court believed that the tiger-character flag was treasonous, I thought that the local officials wanted to find out what the imperial court wanted and found the tiger-character flag for the treason. All evidence of guilt."
Snapped!
Liu Hong raised his hand and slapped the table hard.
The lids on the bowls on the table were knocked off, making a loud crashing sound.
"The lower official believes that since the governor is guarding the place, he should respond to the urgent needs of the court and think about what the court thinks. This is the example of a loyal minister." Pei Hong ignored Liu Hong's anger and said again.
At this time, Du Wanyuan, who was standing aside, said: "It is precisely because I lead the emperor to guard the place that I cannot do such slanderous things like Master Pei."
In one sentence, what Pei Hongsuo wanted to do was characterized as slander.
"Who do you think you are? It's not your turn to interrupt when I'm talking to the governor." Pei Hong scolded Du Wanyuan mercilessly.
Liu Hong stared at Pei Hong with cold eyes and said, "It's not your turn to control the gentleman next to me yet."
"This official is talking too much." Pei Hong apologized hastily, but there was no apology on his face.
Liu Hong didn't bother to give him nonsense and said directly: "Although I don't love the people like a son, I won't do such a thing as fabricating evidence out of thin air. Okay, I won't keep Mr. Pei here."
As he spoke, he picked up the tureen in his hand.
"Master Pei, please!" Du Wanyuan made an inviting gesture towards the outside of the house.
Pei Hong's scolding of him just now also made him unhappy.
However, due to his identity, he couldn't get angry on the spot, but he also held a grudge against Pei Hong in his heart.
Pei Hong did not move, but looked at Liu Hong and said: "Now Liu Heng is no longer the guerrilla general of the East Road, he is just a white businessman. Why should the governor offend the princes in the court for such a person?"
"Send off guests!" Liu Hong said again.
Du Wanyuan's face was also a little ugly, and he said: "Master Pei, please go ahead! If you don't leave, don't blame me for letting the Yamen take action."
"Since the governor is unwilling to listen, I will resign." Pei Hong didn't want to be kicked out, so he had to agree to leave.
Liu Hong didn't even look at him anymore.
Pei Hong had no choice but to walk out.
When he was almost in front of the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around and said: "The governor will not know what the attitude of today's emperor is. Why bother to hate today's emperor and all the people of the dynasty for the sake of the proprietor of a business?" male."
By the way, it’s really good and worth installing. After all, you can cache and read books offline!
"Come here, send Mr. Pei away." Du Wanyuan rushed to the door and ordered.
The servant waiting in the yard ran in quickly and stretched out his hand to drive Pei Hong away.
"No need." Pei Hong flicked his sleeves and walked out.
Du Wanyuan stopped in front of the door and said to the servants on the side: "Keep an eye on me and escort Mr. Pei away all the way."
"yes."
The servant agreed, followed closely beside Pei Hong, one on the left and the other on the right, and walked out without leaving.
After watching the person go away, Du Wanyuan turned around and returned to Liu Hong.
"This is really unreasonable." The tureen in Liu Hong's hand fell heavily on the table.
He, the dignified governor of Datong, was threatened by a seventh-grade governor like Pei Hong. He was extremely angry and wanted to throw the tureen in his hand at the opponent's head.
"Dong Weng, calm down. Pei Hong is seeking death himself, so why should we care about him?" Du Wanyuan advised.
Liu Hong took a deep breath, calmed down the excitement caused by anger, and then said: "You are right, why should I vent my anger with a fool like him?"
"If Dong Weng thinks so, that's the best thing." Du Wanyuan said from the side, "If Tiger Character Flag is so easy to deal with, it won't be his turn to take action. If he wants to deal with Tiger Character Flag, he can do it this time Even if he doesn’t die, he will knock out a few teeth.”
Thinking of this, Liu Hong did feel a little more comfortable.
Pei Hong was stared at by two servants as he walked out of the Yamen.
As soon as he came out, Pei Shun, who was waiting outside, hurriedly greeted him.
"Sir, what's going on? Has the governor agreed?" Pei Shun said with a smile on his face.
Liu Heng no longer had an official status, he was just a businessman with a white body, but he held a piece of mouth-watering fat like a tiger-character flag in his hand. He did not think that the governor of Datong would be indifferent to a piece of fat like a tiger-character flag.
"Hmph, I thought he was very capable as a governor, but now it seems that the older people get, the less courageous they become, and they dare not eat anything that reaches their mouths." Pei Hong sneered.
Liu Hong was still worried about driving him out of there.
"Ah! The governor is actually unwilling to do such a great thing." Pei Shun looked surprised, and he couldn't understand why Liu Hong didn't even want to pay a lot of money.
Pei Hong took a few steps forward and got on the carriage.
The driver drove the carriage away from the governor's office.
"Sir, the governor is unwilling to deal with the Tiger Flag, what should we do next?" Pei Shun asked Xiang Pei Hong.
Pei Hong, who was sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed and concentrating, said in a calm tone: "If he doesn't want to take action, then I will do it myself. How can a mere white businessman stir up trouble in front of me?"
"What the master said is absolutely true." Pei Shun said smoothly, "When you eradicate Liu Heng and the Tiger Flag, master, then see if Governor Liu will regret not cooperating with you today."
Hearing this, Pei Hong opened his eyes and sneered: "It will not be something he will not regret later. If he wants to take the money from the Tiger Flag in peace, I will overthrow him this time. "
When he said this, he almost gritted his teeth.
In his opinion, Liu Hong did not want to offend the Tiger Flag because he could profit from the Tiger Flag smuggling business. However, he patrolled the censor, but he did not get a penny of benefit. He had long seen that these could be divided. The person who benefited was displeased. Now that he had the opportunity, he didn't mind taking care of Liu Hong as well.
"Sir, if you can defeat the governor, your reputation will be great, and you may even be promoted to a higher position." Pei Shun boasted from the side.
"Haha!" Pei Hong laughed out loud while stroking his beard.
