I, the strongest poisoner, am called the living king of hell by the empress

Chapter 8



The emperor summoned the emperor to the palace.

"The emperor, by the order of heaven, summoned the emperor to the palace. The whole country is in great disaster, and Qingshui City is in great trouble. Cui Xinghe of the Cui family has the talent to protect the country. I specially order Cui Xinghe to be the temporary supervisory censor, in charge of all matters of Qingshui City, to stabilize the grain price as quickly as possible and return peace to the people. Set off immediately and do not make any mistakes. This is my order!"

Cui Xinghe wore an official robe, and his handsome face was full of excitement.

"I, Cui Xinghe, will do my best to accept the order!"

He took the imperial edict and was excited.

"His Majesty has ordered that Lord Cui pack up and leave immediately. Wan'er has important matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."

Shangguan Wan'er said, and left in another direction with another imperial edict.

Cui Xinghe noticed that there was another imperial edict, and his pupils shrank.

He looked at the direction Shangguan Wan'er left.

That was... the direction of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion!

His face suddenly darkened.

On the side, a middle-aged man with a dignified face came to Cui Xinghe's side.

He was Cui Jian, the head of the Cui family, one of the seven surnames and five families in the world.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the Empress's test of you and Gao Yang."

"Whether my Cui family can gain the Empress's trust and move up a level in Daqian depends entirely on you."

Cui Xinghe nodded heavily, "In terms of conspiracy and intrigue, I may not be as good as Gao Yang, but in terms of governing the country, a hundred of him can't compare to me. The grain price in Qingshui City will fall within fifteen days!"

"Father, just wait for good news from me."

Cui Jian nodded with satisfaction, "My son Xinghe has the potential to be a prime minister!"

Dingguo Mansion.

Gao Yang's mouth twitched, and for a moment he didn't know whether the little girl was caring about him or cursing him.

The little girl's name was Gao Ling, the daughter of his second uncle Gao Changlin, who had been close to him since childhood.

So, Gao Yang still felt that children should not be afraid of what they say.

He pulled Gao Ling over and pinched her chubby little face.

"Ling'er, you are so filial to me."

Gao Ling blinked, still unable to understand the irony of being so filial to me.

She said with tears in her eyes, "Brother, I heard from the servants in the mansion that you had revealed the imperial edict and would be executed. Is this true?"

Gao Yang suddenly realized, and he knew.

What bad thoughts could a child have?

Before Gao Yang could speak, Gao Ling said pitifully, "Brother, you promised to buy the peach blossom cake from the east end of the city for Ling'er. Buy it for Ling'er first, otherwise, if you are executed, who will Ling'er buy it from?"

Gao Yang's mouth twitched, and his eyes swept around.

Gao Ling asked cautiously, "Brother, what are you looking for?"

"Brother thinks it is necessary to make your childhood more memorable."

"Where is my cane?"

The next second, Gao Ling ran away like a slippery loach.

"Brother, Ling'er is wrong!"

"Don't run! If I don't beat you up today, I, Gao Yang, will change my name to Gao Wan!"

Gao Yang chased after him immediately.

It might be because he traveled through time, or it might be because he was alone and had never felt the warmth of family in his previous life.

He didn't feel uncomfortable at all after traveling through time. On the contrary, he was very familiar with everything in the Gao Mansion and felt very close to it.

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

Gao Yang just caught Gao Ling when he heard the voice of the imperial edict that almost resounded throughout the Dingguo Mansion.

Gao Yang's face lit up, and he let go of Gao Ling, who was like a chicken, and said, "Let you go first, and see what the empress gave you!"

Dingguo Mansion, outer courtyard.

Shangguan Wan'er held the imperial edict on golden silk cloth, followed by a dozen palace guards, and there was no expression on her beautiful face.

When the imperial edict arrived, everyone in Dingguo Mansion, young and old, knelt down to receive it.

But there was only one exception, that was the Duke of Dingguo Gao Tianlong, who was standing in the front wearing a coarse cloth gown and had a face full of majesty without anger.

He just bent down slightly, but no one would think it was inappropriate, because this was a privilege earned by fighting for Daqian for fifty years and risking his life.

Gao Yang naturally had no privileges. Although he hated Daqian's kneeling to receive the order, people in ancient times had to bow their heads.

This was the first time he saw his grandfather, who was the first general of Daqian, after traveling through time.

Although his hair was gray and he didn't say a word, his body was filled with a strong majesty that made people dare not look directly at him.

Therefore, Gao Yang looked at Gao Tianlong with a sidelong look.

"Evil... evil son, you need to bow your head to receive the order, be respectful, don't be accused of disrespecting His Majesty, or you will be exiled to Lingnan!"

Gao Feng said in a low voice. He endured for a long time, but he couldn't bear it anymore. This evil son looked left and right, like a curious baby.

Old

My master is not a peerless beauty, does he need to look at her like this?

Besides, this imperial edict may not be a good thing. This smell is completely different from the leisurely stroll in the Golden Palace.

Gao Yang had to lower his head and accept the edict obediently.

Shangguan Wan'er opened the imperial edict and said loudly, "The Emperor of Heaven and the Mandate of Heaven summoned: The world is in great disaster, and Linjiang City is in great disaster. Gao Yang, the grandson of Duke Dingguo, has the talent of the country. I specially order Gao Yang to be the temporary supervisory censor, in charge of all matters of Linjiang City, to stabilize the grain price as quickly as possible, and to restore peace to the people. Set off immediately, without any mistakes, this is my order!"

"Gao Yang, accept the edict and thank you."

Gao Feng's pupils shrank as the imperial edict came out.

Even Gao Tianlong in front of him suddenly became sharp.

Gao Yang was stunned for a moment, then said respectfully, "Gao Yang, thank you for your majesty's grace."

He took the imperial edict with a helpless smile on his face. He originally thought that this was an imperial edict of appointment from the empress.

But now it seems that the empress's big white legs are not so easy to hug.

This is clearly a transition from theory to practical operation of governing the country. If he cannot reduce the grain price as quickly as possible, he will be removed from the empress's heart.

But he was also somewhat amazed at Wu Zhao's courage. She used the lives of the people of a city as an opportunity to let him practice.

Isn't she afraid that he will mess up?

Gao Feng looked at Shangguan Wan'er and said in shock, "With the ability of this wicked son, how can he be qualified for the position of Supervisory Censor? The people of a city cannot be allowed to do anything wrong."

Shangguan Wan'er's face was cold. When she thought that she would also follow Gao Yang to this competition that was destined to have a result, she was quite dissatisfied.

She didn't mean to look down on Gao Yang, but in her heart, compared with Cui Xinghe, Gao Yang couldn't win, this was a fact.

"Minister Gao, all this is the will of His Majesty. You know His Majesty's temper, and no one can change it."

Then, Shangguan Wan'er looked at Gao Yang and said, "The disaster is urgent. I'm waiting outside. Please pack up and leave quickly."

Shangguan Wan'er turned around.

Gao Tianlong looked back at Gao Yang, with no expression on his majestic face, "The disaster is like fire. Pack up and leave quickly. This is His Majesty's assessment of you. If you succeed, you will soar to the sky, but you must remember that it is better not to do it than to make mistakes. In this way, even if it fails, I can save your life."

"Whether it is a blessing or a disaster, it all depends on you."

After saying that, Gao Tianlong turned around and walked towards the inner house.

Although his tone was cold, Gao Yang still felt a sense of concern.

He turned around and went to pack his luggage. Actually, there was nothing to pack.

This was like a business trip, with food and lodging provided, and only a few sets of dry clothes were needed.

So, Gao Yang asked the maid to pack a few clothes, and then he pushed the door open and walked out.

But as soon as he opened the door, he saw Gao Feng with a tense face, and his mother Li, who looked noble!

Li saw Gao Yang, and her face was full of heartache, "Linjiang City is more than 200 miles away from Chang'an. You will suffer on the way!"

"Luluo, you follow Yang'er and take care of his daily life."

A pretty girl in green clothes hurriedly responded, "Yes!"

With a white face and a weak face, Gao Yang's eyes suddenly lit up.

His mother is so considerate.

Luluo blinked timidly and looked at Gao Yang, only to feel that Gao Yang's eyes were like tigers, leopards, jackals, and terrible.

On the side, Gao Ling came forward and handed over a small package.

Her tender face was full of reluctance: "Brother, this is peach blossom cake, you can eat it on the way."

Gao Ling's face was full of distress, but she stuffed the package into Gao Yang's hand without hesitation.

On the side, a young man who was younger than him and had a bit of ruffian on his face said, "Brother, you will be away for at least half a month or a month!"

"Don't worry, your younger brother will take care of the young lady you often take care of in Yanzhi Pavilion in Beijing, so you don't have to worry about it."

The person who spoke was his younger brother, Gao Feng's second son, Gao Changwen!

Upon hearing this, Gao Yang's mouth twitched.

Before he could speak, Gao Feng was the first to be furious, "Evil beast, get out within three breaths!"

Gao Changwen was frightened and ran out of the mansion when he saw his father was angry.

While running, he shouted, "Brother, don't worry. I will take good care of your woman!"

Gao Feng closed his eyes in pain.

He shouldn't have coveted that shiver in the first place, otherwise his blood pressure wouldn't have soared every day.

"Father, don't be angry. As the saying goes, an elder brother is like a father. When the child returns, I will discipline Changwen and make him change his ways."

Gao Yang said with a smile.

Gao Feng suppressed the old blood in his heart and said for a long time, "This is an opportunity, but also a crisis. Now Chang'an is undercurrent. If you are not sure, then follow

Your grandfather said, and the Gao family will protect you in the end. "

"Remember, don't show off and let things get out of control."

Gao Yang's heart seemed to be touched by something.

A mother who worries about her son when he is away from home, a mother who sent her personal maid, and a sister who sent her favorite peach blossom cake.

Gao Changwen doesn't count.

Although his father Gao Feng called him a wicked son, he always protected him whether in the Golden Palace or now. Although his grandfather Gao Tianlong was not good at speaking, he also protected his shortcomings.

In his previous life, what he lacked was unexpectedly made up after crossing.

Gao Yang smiled and said, "The young eagle will eventually spread its wings. How can it fly high in the sky and overlook the world under the protection of the family all day long?"

"In today's world, your majesty has just ascended the throne, and it is a time when talents are needed. If I can be reused by the empress, I will continue the glory of the Dingguo Mansion for a hundred years. "

This light sentence made Gao Feng startled, and his eyes showed relief.

"The grain price in Linjiang City will drop within ten days. Father will wait for good news from me in Chang'an. In the future, it's time for someone else to take charge of the huge Gao family."

"I'm leaving. "

Gao Yang finished speaking in a carefree manner, bowed respectfully to Gao Feng and Li, and then turned to leave.

Lu Luo picked up the package and followed Gao Yang step by step.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and the regime was turbulent. Although the Gao family had three generations of generals and was one of the six great dukes, the Duke of Dingguo, they were also under the gaze of too many people with ulterior motives.

There were many people in Chang'an who wanted the Gao family to fall.

If you want to live a peaceful life and keep this hard-won peaceful life, you must hold the empress's big white legs!

This time, if Gao Yang doesn't kill the grain merchants in Linjiang City who took the opportunity to make money from the national crisis!

Then Gao Yang might as well find a piece of tofu and kill himself.

Behind him, Gao Feng looked at Gao Yang's back and smiled with relief.

"God, after all, protected my Gao family."

But he immediately said angrily, "Pass my order to confine that evil beast to me. He can't leave the Duke of Dingguo's mansion until Yang'er comes back. "

"Otherwise, I will break his three legs!"
