Chapter 774 A show of force?

While Yun Li was frantically making money, Yun Zheng and Tuo Huan had already rushed to Jingyang Mansion.

There was no other way, so Ji Ran sent someone to deliver the letter to Dingbei.

Something big happened here in Fuzhou.

It was impossible for him to follow Ye Zi and the others to come here slowly.

The day after Tuo Huan arrived in Dingbei, they set off quickly.

It is estimated that it will take Ye Zi and the others half a month to arrive at the palace in Sifang County.

Although there is a new type of carriage, Yun Zheng is still extra careful, for fear that Ye Zi will feel uncomfortable on the road.

For this reason, Yunzheng specially asked Miaoyin to be with Ye Zi and the others.

"Ji Ran, I'm here to see you, Prince."

When he learned that Yunzheng and his people had arrived, Ji Ran hurriedly brought his people out to greet him.

"See you, my lord!"

Everyone followed suit and saluted.

"No gift!"

Yun Zheng waved his hand gently, "Let's talk after we enter the mansion!"

"Yes!"

Ji Ran accepted the order, raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please!"

Yunzheng strode into the Governor's Mansion with Tuohuan in tow.

After arriving at the Governor's Mansion and sitting down, Yun Zheng immediately asked: "How many people have resigned in total?"

Ji Ran answered cautiously: "Back to Your Highness, there are four officials of fifth rank and above, and eleven officials below fifth rank..."

Depend on!

These birdmen!

I haven't shown off to them yet, but they should give me a hint of authority first?

The governor of Fuzhou is a fourth-rank official!

Four officials of fifth rank and above submitted their resignations!

This is definitely a premeditated resignation!

These bastards!

Either he has something evil in his heart and is afraid of being found out by himself, or he is being deceived by others.

Maybe the third child is behind it!

"Show their resignations to me!"

Yun Zheng frowned and made up his mind to deal with these bastards this time!

"Yes!"

As soon as Ji Ran waved his hand, others immediately presented those people's resignations.

Yunzheng casually took out a resignation letter and looked at it.

The reason for this thing is pretty good.

There is an 80-year-old mother in the family who needs to be taken care of, and she has to go back to fulfill her filial piety.

Another reason to get another.

Called sick!

Get another one on the grounds of begging for bones.

Yunzheng took several resignations in succession and looked at them. The reasons for these people's resignations were also varied.

Anyway, I made up all the reasonable reasons.

There was even a birdman who said that he passed by his deceased wife's grave the day before yesterday and felt deeply sorry for her, and wanted to build a house next to his deceased wife's grave to accompany her.

Seeing these various reasons, Yunzheng almost laughed out of anger.

These bastards are really good at making things up!

Why didn't they say they were resigning and going to travel in space?

Yunzheng thought for a moment and immediately ordered: "Order these people who resigned to come to Jingyang Mansion as soon as possible. Those who do not come within seven days will be punished for the crime of contempt for the king!"

Ji Ran opened his mouth slightly and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, I'm afraid..."

"There's nothing to be afraid of!"

Yunzheng interrupted Ji Ran, "They have worked hard for the court for so many years, and now they are resigning. No matter what, I have to see them on behalf of the court!"

A bunch of idiots!

Resign?

It's not that easy!

It is difficult to be an official, but it is also difficult to resign!

If they dare to leave directly without the approval of the imperial court, they are leaving their posts without permission!

Want to threaten yourself with resignation?

Do you really think you are scared?

Seeing Yunzheng's resolute attitude, Ji Ran couldn't say anything more and could only order people to hurry up and notify the officials who submitted their resignations.

In fact, Ji Ran didn't quite understand what was going on in these officials' heads.

This is the King of Jingbei who has so many troops that even the current prince wants to avoid his advances!

They wanted to resign to show authority to the prince, which was a bit too naive.

They don't really think that this prince dare not kill the court officials without permission, do they?

After Ji Ran finished his explanation, Yun Zheng asked again: "I have robbed you of the position of governor of Fuzhou. Why didn't you resign?"

Facing Yun Zheng's sudden question, Ji Ran couldn't help but be stunned.

Why, does Yunzheng hope that he will also resign so that all Fuzhou officials can be replaced by his cronies?

After coming back to his senses, Ji Ran stood up and said: "If the prince needs to resign, he will submit his resignation right now."

"no no!"

Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "I don't mean that. I'm just curious."

Curious?

Ji Ran naturally didn't believe Yun Zheng's words.

Since Yun Zheng is asking this question, there must be a deep meaning.

Ji Ran thought for a moment and then asked Yun Zheng: "Do you want to hear the truth or lies, Your Majesty?"

"I want to hear it all!"

Yunzheng smiled.

Ji Ran raised his eyes and stared at Yun Zheng, "The lie is that the lower official is an official of the court. No matter how the court arranges it, the lower official should do his duty as a minister! Being an official will benefit the whole place."

"What's the truth?"

Yunzheng asked with interest.

Ji Ran hesitated for a moment and then said: "The truth is, the territory occupied by the prince is far larger than that of Fuzhou! The governor of Fuzhou is only a fourth-rank official. If this official can be reused by His Highness, his status and power will probably be far away in Fuzhou." Above the state governor."

"Well, not bad! I like your truth!"

Yun Zheng smiled with satisfaction, then pointed to Tuo Huan beside him and asked Ji Ran: "Do you know who this is?"

Ji Ran shook his head gently: "I don't know, my official, but judging from this person's face, he shouldn't be a member of the customs."

"He is indeed not an insider."

Yunzheng smiled and said: "This is the former Prime Minister of Guifang, let's have fun!"

The Prime Minister of Guifang!

Hearing Yun Zheng's words, Ji Ran's heart skipped a beat.

This is really a big shot!

Has Guifang Guoxiang been brought to Yunzheng's side?

Moreover, those around Yun Zheng were still respectful and did not dare to go overboard in the slightest.

This prince is obviously well prepared!

After a brief moment of confusion, Ji Ran quickly saluted Tuo Huan: "I've met... sir!"

"Master Ji, you're welcome."

Tuo Huan chuckled, "I have no official position now, so I should not be honored by this courtesy from Lord Discipline."

"My lord is joking." Ji Ran said politely: "My lord can be the Prime Minister of Guifang. Needless to say, my talents are worthy of this gift even if I have no official position!"

"Okay, please stop being polite."

Yun Zheng stopped the two of them and looked at Ji Ran meaningfully, "I tell you the truth, before I came here, I was prepared for you to submit your resignation to me! I brought Tuo Huan, Just let him succeed you!”

Is that so?

Ji Ran smiled bitterly.

If Tuo Huan is really a ghost, it would be more than enough to take over his position.

How could a person who can be the Prime Minister be so talented?

"I will obey the prince's arrangements."

Ji Ran bowed.

What if you don't obey?

What can I do in front of this powerful prince?

"Don't worry, what this king needs is talented and virtuous people!"

Yunzheng reassured Ji Ran, "As you said, Shuobei today is much bigger than Fuzhou! As long as you are talented and virtuous, I will definitely use you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ji Ran didn't know if Yun Zheng was just talking nonsense, so he could only choose to believe it for the time being.

"okay!"

Yun Zheng stood up and said, "I am going to the military camp for a walk. You can first talk to Tuo Huan about the government affairs in Fuzhou!"
