Chapter 2499

If it is true, it will spread to the emperor's ears. I'm afraid the emperor must cut off one of his legs.

No four dare to sit on horseback and accept the worship of Zhou Zhongkang and the people.

He dismounted his horse and said to Zhou Zhongkang, "magistrate of Zhou, please rise, please rise, everyone will get up. Don't worship me or worship me."

As he said, his eyes were moving around, not at Zhou Zhongkang, but at the people.

When he found that there was no Shen Ning and chasing the wind in the crowd, he was relieved.

Zhou Zhongkang was greatly surprised.

Although the ambassador is young, he is very modest.

He stood up and was about to say something more, only to find that the eyes of the ambassador did not look at him at all, but the people behind him.

"Oh, no, No." Small four pats the chest, was really scared out of a cold sweat.

However, it is impossible to think about it. How can the empress come out to meet her and kneel down to herself? Isn't this a big joke?

No, no?

What does that mean.

Zhou Zhongkang was at a loss.

Did the ambassador blame himself for not being well received and not being prepared more ceremoniously?

He remembered that he had only led the people to meet him, but he had forgotten to prepare a gift for the imperial envoy.

According to the unwritten convention of officialdom, when local officials greet the officials sent by the imperial court for inspection, they should have filial piety.

The so-called filial piety is a kind of heavy gift.

They will find out each other's preferences in advance, and then fold the gift list in their sleeves, and send the list to the imperial envoy's hand without a trace.

If you want to sit firmly on the bottom of the official position, this generous gift is absolutely indispensable.

Although Zhou Zhongkang has not been in the officialdom for a long time, he has also heard his colleagues disclose such practices. He is not totally unaware of it, but he disdains to do it.

He has always believed that as a local official, a good political performance is a gift that can be taken more easily than a generous gift.

Therefore, this time to welcome the imperial envoy ambassador, he came with two sleeves and no gift.

But I didn't expect that as soon as we met, the ambassador of the imperial envoy just said that he didn't prepare a gift.

This made him have just a little bit of good impression of the rise of small four instantly disappeared.

I thought he was a modest ambassador, but I didn't expect to get a gift. He had such a thick skin!

Zhou Zhongkang resisted his anger, and his words were not so pleasant to hear.

"I really didn't prepare a gift for the imperial envoy. I was disappointed."

There was a strong irony in the tone, which was heard by all those who had ears.

Standing behind Zhou Zhongkang, Wu Fu was startled and his face turned white.

What's the matter with you? Don't want to live? Or do you have enough officials? How dare you satirize the ambassador?

When it was over, the imperial envoy's ambassador became angry, and he was afraid that the childe's head would fall to the ground.

His face was blue and his lips were white, and he looked at the army of the imperial guards with distinctive armor and weapons behind him. His legs and stomach were cramped.

"Gift? What gift? " How to know Xiao Si seems to have never heard the sarcasm in Zhou Zhongkang's words. Instead, he asked.

Zhou Zhongkang was stunned and couldn't help looking at Xiao Si suspiciously.

Does this guy really don't understand or doesn't understand?
