Chapter 139 The Prestige of the Jade Seal(1/2)
In the prefectural office,
Several maids were frightened by the roar and quickly pulled the two of them up from the ground.
However, the man and woman still lowered their heads tightly and protected the child in the middle.
Kou Zhongwen snorted and said in a gentle voice as gentle as possible: "You guys raise your head!"
Then the two of them raised their heads half tremblingly. Only the child had a round face, thick eyebrows, and stared at Kou Zhongwen with wide eyes.
Kou Zhongwen suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and said, "I apologize to you! This is ten thousand taels of gold coins! It is considered apology!"
Kou Zhongwen waved his hand and a pile of small gold piles appeared in front of the young couple.
They looked at the bright gold coins, not only without any joy, but were even more scared, and said uncontrollably: "I dare not, I dare not!"
Huang Guting took a step forward and walked to the couple. A space ring appeared in his hand. With a slight wave, tens of thousands of gold coins were put away. He stuffed the ring into the child's hand.
The child immediately held the ring tightly, liked it very much, and then put it on his own fingers. He was very happy and laughed happily.
Huang Guting said, "I like it!"
The child immediately stopped laughing, then stared at Huang Guting for a few glances, and nodded.
Huang Guting also nodded at him with a smile, then looked at the couple and said with a smile: "If you don't raise your head, the magistrate may apologize to you again!"
The two of them were shocked and immediately raised their heads to look at Huang Guting.
Huang Guting smiled slightly and said, "You don't have to be afraid. Since the magistrate did something that I'm sorry for you, we will naturally have to compensate you! I think... I will pass on the position of the next prefect of Kongtong Prefecture to you!"
Huang Guting looked at the man!
The man was stunned for a moment, and even didn't understand what Huang Guting was saying to him!
Kou Zhongwen was stunned, but Du Jiuyan was shocked. No one in the entire Tianhuang Empire had a deeper relationship with Kongtong Mansion than him! Now Huang Guting actually wanted a wild boy to be the prefect! So what's the difference between this and he just found someone to be the successor?
Before Kou Zhongwen could speak, Du Jiuyan walked to Huang Guting and whispered: "Young Master...this..."
Du Jiuyan didn't say it any more. He felt that Huang Guting could not do this, and he was just joking.
Unexpectedly, Huang Guting waved his hand slightly, then looked at Kou Zhongwen and said, "I'm dealing with this, I don't know if Lord Kou has any objections!"
"Hmph!" Kou Zhongwen snorted coldly and said, "I have already left this matter to you. It is your decision for whom you are willing to be the prefect! If something goes wrong in the future, it has nothing to do with me!"
Kou Zhongwen didn't want to say the last sentence, but now he has fallen into a disadvantage after many steps. If he doesn't ironic, Kou Zhongwen will really not be able to stand it.
"Haha! Natural and natural! Something happened! I will naturally be carried by this young master! Lord Fan, please write the appointment document!"
Kou Zhongwen snorted again and said, "Young Master is not a member of the government, so naturally I don't know that although I am in charge of a state, I do not have the right to directly appoint a prefect. I need to report to the Ministry of Personnel. After the Ministry of Personnel's investigation, I will be able to issue an appointment document! Only in this way can I take effect! Therefore, it is useless for me to write now!"
"Haha! Lord Kou can write, but there is no problem. There is a way to do it! If you don't go through the Ministry of Personnel, you can directly accept your fate!" Huang Guting said lightly.
Kou Zhongwen stared at Huang Guting with a burning look. How could he believe his words? Without the appointment of the Ministry of Personnel, no official could take office directly! Or, without the appointment of the Ministry of Personnel, he could not be called an official! How could the heads of the six ministries be called for nothing?
However, Kou Zhongwen wanted to see what he bought and what tricks he played! He didn't take him seriously from the beginning, although his cultivation was very high, but he was still a slutty boy after all. After all, he had been in the officialdom for decades, so how could he be scared so quickly? He was just afraid of him taking action against him, so he tried his best to compromise.
"Get paper and pen!"
"Yes! Sir!"
At this time, even Du Jiuyan, who knew Huang Guting's identity, was puzzled. Although Huang Guting was a prince with a noble status and above ten thousand people, he had no power after all! Unless he came with the emperor's imperial edict, he would not be able to directly appoint a chief of the government office!
However, what Du Jiuyan is most concerned about is not here, but Huang Guting really wants this thin man to take over his position? Become the prefect of Kongtong Prefecture? This is too hasty! Judging from his cowardly appearance, it is better for me, the old man, to continue to fight to the death!
He spoke again: "Young Master! Is this too hasty? If he becomes the prefect, how can I face the thousands of people of Kongtong Prefecture?"
Huang Guting smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Du, don't worry, I have to worry about it! Master. Just watch it."
"This... OK!" Du Jiuyan shook his head and sighed. Anyway, the other party was the prince and he invited him. No matter what he did, he couldn't stop him. Of course, he felt that Huang Guting should not be such an unreliable person!
Kou Zhongwen held a haircut in his hand, and two maids held up a piece of rice paper in front of him.
There is a handyman holding a inkstone on the side and grinding it.
Kou Zhongwen glanced at Huang Guting, then dipped it in thick ink, started writing it with his hand, suddenly stopped, and said, "What's your name?"
The man was still as if he was falling into illusion, intoxicated, surprised and happy, and said in a trembling voice: "Little Man Wu Ming!"
"Not Name?" Kou Zhongwen snorted, "What a humble grass man, he doesn't even have a name!"
Wu Ming's face suddenly froze and he didn't dare to answer.
"Haha! Lord Kou is really a traitor! He is obviously named Wu Ming, but he thinks he is nameless! It's ridiculous!" Huang Guting mocked.
"You...!" Kou Zhongwen was about to get angry, but suddenly reacted: "Wu Ming? Wu Ming!"
He hummed again, concealed his embarrassment, and was about to write down the word "Wu Ming".
"Let's wait!"
Huang Guting stopped him again,
Kou Zhongwen said dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean?"
Huang Guting smiled slightly, then pointed his hand at Wu Ming, then slowly moved down and placed his hand on the child's little head.
"May I have your name?"
Huang Guting looked at the child and asked.
The child blinked his big round eyes and stared at Huang Guting without saying anything.
Wu Ming suddenly became anxious and said quickly: "Sir, the child has no choice but to speak since he was a child. The villain is named Wu Hao!"
Huang Guting nodded, "Wu Hao! Very good!... Lord Kou, write it!"
"……???" Kou Zhongwen looked confused and felt that he had heard it wrong, so he asked again: "Who are you writing?"
"Wu Hao!" Huang Guting smiled and said, "It's this child!"
Kou Zhongwen was shocked and angry, and even let himself accept a child as the prefect! This was obviously a humiliation of himself. After the Ministry of Personnel reviewed it, he could not escape. After all, it would be fine if he was just an ordinary person, but if a seven-year-old child as the prefect, such a ridiculous thing that happened in Gunzhou would probably be a laughing stock!
Kou Zhongwen immediately put down his pen and said in a cold voice: "Young Master, don't go too far, my official's patience is limited!"
Huang Guting smiled and said, "Didn't you say that even if you write it, it won't take effect. So, what are you afraid of?"
Du Jiuyan also said: "Young Master, this is not a joke. How can you let a child be the prefect?"
Huang Guting smiled and said, "Why are you still Lord Du?"
"This..." Du Jiuyan immediately couldn't understand the meaning.
Huang Guting continued to look at Kou Zhongwen and said, "Mr. Kou, please write quickly! Otherwise, I will find someone to be the prefect, or we will have to stay here forever!"
Kou Zhong heard that his face was gloomy and he secretly guessed the gains and losses in his heart. In the end, he picked up his pen and wrote the word "Wu Hao".
As Huang Guting said, even if he wrote it, he had to submit it to the Ministry of Personnel for review. As long as he did not stamp it, he would be a piece of waste paper. So what if he wrote it down?
After Kou Zhong heard about the writing, he finished writing and hummed, "I have finished writing!"
The two maids quickly presented the paper in front of Huang Guting. Huang Guting looked at it from beginning to end, smiled slightly, and said, "Very good!"
Huang Guting nodded slightly, then waved his right hand, and a seal with the ultimate exquisite workmanship appeared in the palm of his palm.
Kou Zhongwen and Du Jiuyan were shocked, especially Kou Zhongwen, who was suddenly shocked. It seemed that he had seen such a seal wrapped in five dragons from afar in his memory!
But he could believe that the treasure would appear in the hands of a young man in front of him!
"Impossible! Impossible!!!" Kou Zhongwen called out several times, but his eyes were still staring at the seal in Huang Guting's hand.
Huang Guting didn't say anything, but just pressed the white paper slightly and quickly put it away.
"boom……!"
Suddenly, a golden light emanated from the white paper. The golden light was dazzling, and it also had the surging emperor's power.
Kou Zhongwen's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle eye, and was extremely shocked, staring at the golden seal on the white paper. When the golden light converged, ten golden words flashed and shining in his eyes.
"The treasure that will never grow old, the one who will receive the orders of heaven!"
"boom!"
A loud bang in his mind!
"The Jade Seal of the Tianhuang Empire!"
"Bang!"
His knees suddenly became soft, and he knelt down suddenly, bowing respectfully: "Long live my emperor!"
Everyone present didn't know what happened, but when the servants and maids saw Kou Zhongwen kneeling down, they dared to stand there. They hurriedly bowed their heads and knelt down.
Even Du Jiuyan, who knew Huang Guting's identity the best, was shocked suddenly. He couldn't believe that Huang Guting actually brought all the jade seals of the sky!
He also knelt down and kowtowed: "Long live my emperor!"
In a blink of an eye, everyone in the backyard of the State Mansion, except for the Huang Gu Court, who was still standing, knelt on the ground.
Huang Guting shook his head slightly and smiled in his heart: "I forgot this jade seal when I left! I didn't expect that it still has some effect!"
Huang Guting glanced at Kou Zhongwen who was extremely respectful and said, "Get up! I am not an emperor, don't worship me!"
"Thank you!"
Kou Zhongwen stood up respectfully, but he didn't dare to look up. Of course, he knew that Huang Guting was not the emperor, after all, he had seen Huang Qingye.
