    On the science number.

    After Zhao Hao calmed down, Zhao Li analyzed it for him:

    "This case must be an imperial case. We can only provide evidence, but only the officials responsible for investigating the case have the final say on how to investigate and handle the case and how to convict in the end."

    "But it doesn't matter who is investigating the case right now. No matter who it is, there will be no second result." Zhao Liben and Xu Jie made the same judgment:

    "In a short period of time, the imperial court will not go on a killing spree, but will calm things down."

    "Oh?" Zhao Hao didn't turn around for a while.  "Why?"

    "The reason is very simple. The court needs dignity and order, so a dignified governor can die of illness, accidents, or imprisonment, but he cannot die of being murdered. Otherwise, the four dimensions will not be open, the rules and regulations will collapse, and the country will perish." Zhao Liben said solemnly.  replied.

    "Yeah." Zhao Hao understood.  Indeed, if the safety of the feudal officials cannot be guaranteed, then the country's rule over the local areas will completely collapse.

    ??Throughout the ages, no regime will allow such a bad incident to happen.

    ¡°If it happens, we can only find ways to make people believe that it didn¡¯t happen.

    "But based on the same principle, no matter how long it takes or how much energy is spent, the murderer will come back at an extremely heavy price. Otherwise, how to prevent imitation?" Zhao Liben said in a deep voice:

    "Obviously, the power of the imperial envoy does not match the term of office. It is most appropriate for the successor governor to handle the case." Zhao Liben said with a teasing smile: "Such a simple truth, Mr. Xu Ge must not understand it. He must have already taken action and wants to  The last governor of Yingtian was beneficial to the Xu family."

    "He can't even think about it!" Zhao Hao snorted coldly: "I won't let him succeed."

    "Oh?" Zhao Liben glanced at his grandson and asked with a smile: "My dear grandson, are you going to have a fight with Mr. Xu Ge?"

    "This is not the first time." Mr. Zhao said in a calm tone with a hint of heroism: "When the court discussed my father's crime, we had a duel."

    "It's different." Zhao Liben reminded him: "That time, it was the right time, the right place, the right people, and it was impossible to count."

    However, Zhao Hao said with determination: "Xu Jie can't defeat me while he's in office, let alone after he retires!"

    "Good! You have courage!" Zhao Liben looked at him for a moment, then suddenly raised his hands and said with a smile: "As expected of me, Zhao Liben's grandson, since you have confidence, grandpa will fully support you! If you can win this contest, the next step will be unstoppable.  Invincible!"

    After that, he explained to Zhao Hao: "To appoint officials at the level of governor, the Ministry of Civil Affairs must first propose a number, and then two or three people will be selected through court recommendation. The person ranked first will be the main candidate, the second person will be the companion,  Then the final selection will be submitted to the emperor for selection."

    "But usually the emperor has no choice but to choose the main selection. If he is not satisfied with the main selection, he would rather order a re-election than the second selection, let alone the last selection. Otherwise, officials will not dare to accept the selection after being selected.  Otherwise, he will be ostracized and targeted by his colleagues and regarded as a spineless sycophant."

    "As the saying goes, 'noble people are in the dynasty and share with the public', ministers who are not popular among the people will not be able to hold official positions." Zhao Liben picked up the tea cup and said calmly: "None of those who are in power can last long."

    Zhao Hao couldn't help but change his expression when he heard this: "My grandson's official title seems to be special."

    "Pfft" Zhao Liben almost sprayed him with a sip of tea.  "I'm talking about high-ranking officials of the third rank and above. What does an eighth-rank official like you have to do with it?"

    "Now it's from the seventh grade" Mr. Zhao corrected in a low voice: "It's bigger than a mung bean."

    "That's Hongdou." Zhao Liben glanced at him and said, "Look, I forgot where I mentioned"

    "When it comes to court nomination, the Ministry of Civil Affairs first selects a number of people, and then the ministers recommend the main candidates." Zhao Hao reminded him in a low voice.

    "Yes, so there are two gates. It is not difficult to get your favorite candidate to be put on the list of officials. I can help you do it."

    "Grandpa, don't worry, Yang Tianguan is still waiting for me to fix the Taipei Railway for him." Zhao Hao smiled and said: "Besides, that one will definitely be shortlisted without my help."

    "Who?" Zhao Liben was stunned.

    "The only way to kill demons is to rely on the divine sword." Zhao Hao looked solemn.

    "Haigang Peak." Zhao Liben suddenly said: "It would be great if he could be the governor of Yingtian. I heard that this year the court promoted seven or eight positions such as governor and minister, and he was among the candidates every time, but every time  They are all supporting candidates, but they can never become the main candidates. Do you know why?"

    "I guess it's because he has such a bad reputation." Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

    "Isn't that right? It's hard to make a living when the King of Hell becomes an official, and the gentry is embarrassed." Zhao Liben said with a smile: "Every time the officials put him on the list of governors of a place, the gentry in that place would immediatelyThe members worked together to prevent him from becoming the main candidate.  How could the powerful family in Jiangnan sit still and wait for death?  "

    "This is what we want." Zhao Hao said coldly: "They are too unscrupulous. If they don't take care of themselves, they won't be able to do anything!"

    Zhao Hao paused and then changed the subject: "But I'd better go to Nanjing first and ask him what he means in person."

    "Well, it should be." Zhao Liben said with deep understanding: "Then grandpa, I will also go to Nanjing with you, so that things can be easier to do there."

    "Just wait for two days, I still have something to do." Zhao Hao scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I was just so angry that I forgot that there is another way. Maybe I can help Lin Zhongcheng."

    "Well, then I'll go and set up a front line for you tomorrow." Zhao Liben knew what other tricks his grandson had come up with.  He nodded and said nothing more.

    ??~~

    That night, Zhao Hao wrote a secret letter exactly as he learned about the case.  It was put into a kraft paper envelope together with Zheng Yuanshao's confession.

    Secretary Ma ignited the blue strips of fire paint on the lampstand and dripped it onto the seal the moment it melted into a thick consistency.

    Then he raised the envelope and blew on it gently. When it was about to solidify, he placed it in front of Zhao Hao and said softly: "Young master, please use your seal."

    "Yes." Zhao Hao nodded, then took out the silver medal from his sleeve and placed it firmly on the seal and fire paint.

    Sister Ma put the envelope into the box, took it out and handed it to the guard to send away.  Then he turned back to the cabin and said to Zhao Hao:

    "Sir, it's late at night, go to bed."

    "I won't sleep tonight." Zhao Hao stretched, picked up a brass round box on the table, opened the lid and looked at the watch, and saw that the hour and minute hands overlapped at twelve o'clock.

    Yes, this is a clock.

    To be precise, it is a pocket watch with an hour hand and a minute hand.

    This is not surprising. Tessie already had pocket watches a hundred years ago.

    "Zhao Hao's piece was given to him by Jiang Xueying. It was all stock in her family's warehouse. It was indeed quite old.

    Of course, compared to those small and exquisite gadgets in Zhao Hao¡¯s impression, this pocket watch has no glass cover and is more than three times larger.

    It feels too heavy to hang around your neck, and it bulges when you carry it on your chest. It always reminds Mr. Zhao of Yu Qian'er's watch.

    Therefore, he does not carry it with him, he only puts it on the table to look at for a while.

    Putting down the big pocket watch, Zhao Hao took a sip of strong tea and cheered up:

    ¡°Bring me the drawing tools, I¡¯m going to design a gadget overnight.¡±
