Chapter 2309, no figure

Although they are just low-level officials, they have flexible minds, which is why Lin'an sent Xuan Shijing to the cell of Dali Temple for "detention".

There is a friendship between Xuan Shijing and Di Renjie, but if it is said that they are forming a party for personal gain, that is not the case.

Even if these people in the cell are not facing Xuan Shijing or Di Renjie, they still have to take good care of Xuan Shijing.

The cell is so noisy, it makes people uneasy, and the guards can hear Suo Yuanli's voice outside, it's so disturbing here, so just block Suo Yuanli's mouth, and everyone can be quiet.

As for whether to regard Suo Yuanli as an adult, who is a person who is about to die, what kind of person should he be, and if he has fallen to this point, is he committing suicide?

Even the guards in the cell knew that the two assassinations of their adults had nothing to do with this Suo Yuanli.

One time was in the cell, on the "site" of these guards. That time, Wang Zhu was killed because of this incident, and he couldn't even escape with his family. The other time was even more daring and directly broke into Dali Temple hurt Xu Zhengqing.

Where does this put the faces of the guards in Dali Temple?
Being bullied by others on his own territory, he came to act wildly.

Now that the culprit has been arrested, can't we let them take care of them?No matter what, I can draw a bad breath.

So even before Xuan Shijing entered the cell of Dali Temple, Lai Junchen and Suo Yuanli had a hard time.

Xu Zhengqing is still lying in bed unable to move, wrapped in thick gauze, changing medicine three times a day, the doctor runs to Dali Temple every day, everyone in Dali Temple is watching, and his face is almost unbearable.

Obviously, there are so many guards in Dali Temple, but in the end they were diverted from the mountain, and Mr. Xu was injured because of this. They also felt guilty in their hearts.

"Xuan Gong, if you need anything, just ask the younger brothers, don't be afraid of trouble." The guard said, and looked back at Lai Junchen.

Lai Junchen could only smile wryly.

Originally, Lai Junchen would not care about a servant, but once he lost his power and was locked in this cell, and the servant wanted to deal with him, he had no choice but to lose his temper.

There are not many days left, so why bother.

"Okay, brothers, I'll take it. Here's some money. Brothers, take it to drink." Xuan Shijing took out a small piece of silver from his sleeve pocket, about two coins, and stuffed it In the hands of the guard.

Xuan Shijing also knew that these servants treated him preferentially because of Di Renjie's face, but he himself had to be a Taoist.

"The little one will thank Xuan Gong on behalf of the brothers." The guard took Xuan Shijing's money and bowed his hands politely.

"You're welcome, I don't know how long I will stay here, and I have to rely on a few little brothers to take care of me." Xuan Shijing responded with a smile.

Lai Junchen watched Xuan Shijing dealing with the guards in the cell, and couldn't help but admire Xuan Shijing. It is not something anyone can do to put down his body and make friends with a small guard in the cell.

No wonder the Xuan family has such a good network. With such a patriarch, if His Majesty hadn't deliberately targeted it, the Xuan family would definitely stand firm in Chang'an City. Even if Xuan Shijing never went to the early court, he knew everything about the court like the palm of his hand. .

Lai Junchen was more aware of why His Majesty began to fear the Xuan family.

Xuan Shijing is a capable person, and his father was a minister of the dragon who died in the Xuanwu Gate. This feeling can be remembered by the Supreme Emperor for a lifetime. In addition, Xuan Shijing himself has a good relationship with the current Majesty since he was a child. , relying on this, Xuan Shijing was able to associate with many people in the court.

As for the deeper level, Lai Junchen also knows that it is nothing more than the distribution of the benefits of the Xuan Family Chamber of Commerce. In this regard, Lai Junchen feels that Xuan Shijing is a little unclear. His Majesty would not be so afraid of the Xuan family.

"Xuan Gong is really kind." Lai Junchen praised.

"Is this called good manner?" Xuan Shijing smiled helplessly and shook his head.

"Isn't it?" Lai Junchen asked back.

"They're all individuals, so what's the difference? If it's in the officialdom, the official position can be divided into three, six, or nine grades. High-ranking officials have more power. What about lower-ranking ones? Running errands, some people talk, some people move." Legs, it’s understandable, but if it’s normal, people are divided into groups and waited out, some people really think highly of themselves, don’t everyone have one head, two arms and two legs? Can you have one more head than these servants?" Xuan Shijing said.

"The words of Duke Xuan are quite new. Could it be that when Duke Xuan was serving in the imperial court, he also felt that he was the same as those mud-legged people in your village?" Lai Junchen asked.

"What's the difference? Counting up three generations, my family is also from a peasant family. Back then, my father was just a scumbag in the army, relying on his own ability to climb up." Xuan Shijing said: "Come on, my lord, think about your own Born, Mr. Lai’s father, grandfather, aren’t they also ordinary people? When Mr. Lai was still dawdling in Chang’an City, was he any different from them? At least at that time, Mr. Lai was an idler, and he was serious Do a job, get a salary, and support your family.”

Lai Junchen thought about what Xuan Shijing said, but there was some truth to it.

However, Lai Junchen still felt that Xuan Shijing's words were a bit hypocritical.

He didn't believe that Xuan Shijing still had this mentality when he was the Duke of Qi in the imperial court, when he was still the prince of the East Palace, and when he was an official of the first rank.

There is still a difference between officials and ordinary people, how can they be the same?
"You still think it's superfluous for me to do this?" Xuan Shijing asked with a smile.

"Otherwise?" Lai Junchen asked back: "The relationship between Duke Xuan and Lord Di is well known in Dali Temple. Even if Duke Xuan loses power, they will take care of him for Lord Di's sake Master Xuan, isn’t it?” Lai Junchen said, “Where is a person like me, when he is bright, he is surrounded by a large group of people, seeking for official positions, seeking wealth, and when he is down, even the guards in this cell , can bully me.”

"Being cared for because of Mr. Di's relationship, such days will come to an end sooner or later. Other people's favors are limited, and the favors that can be grasped in your own hands are truly useful favors, because you don't know when, because The favors of other people will not work." Xuan Shijing said: "You think the guards in the cell, their role is limited, but at some point, they can save your life, for example, in case What about assassins coming to this cell?"

When Xuan Shijing said this, he also meant to spoil Lai Junchen. Back then, Lai Junchen sent an assassin to assassinate Di Renjie in the cell.

"Now, I am also an ordinary person. If you want to say the most famous name, it should be the name of Princess Jinyang's son-in-law, right? Haha." Xuan Shijing laughed as he spoke.

Can let go of everything at once, put down the title of Duke of Qi, put down the official position of prince and grand tutor, let go of those messy names and rights, so chic, who else, just ask, who else!
But Xuan Shijing couldn't figure it out, she just wanted to live a stable life, why did Li Chengqian hold on to him and not let go?
Because I am still useful?In other words, he was afraid that after letting him go, what trouble would he cause the court when he was outside?
Then Li Chengqian really thinks highly of Xuan Shijing, and he is really paranoid.

As an official in the court before, he didn't want the fame and wealth that he could get at his fingertips, so why did he go so far away from Chang'an by himself?What is he plotting?Or do you want to avoid Vanity Fair?To protect the Xuan family?

Why did Li Chengqian press so hard?

"Xuan Gong, you are such a person that people really don't understand you." Lai Junchen said, "People don't understand what you want."

"It's very simple. What I want is that my family can live in peace and stability. No matter what turmoil in the court, it will not affect us. This is enough, even if I am poor and white, even if I am not an official in the court." Xuan Shi Jing said: "Some people pursue power and wealth, and some people pursue masters. I only want the Xuan family to be safe."

"It's that simple?" Lai Junchen asked.

"Of course, it's already this time, what's the use of me lying to you?" Xuan Shijing smiled helplessly.

How come the more people tell the truth, the less people will believe you?
He himself was not an ambitious person from the beginning to the end. He said so and did the same thing, but the people in the court didn't believe it. Even if he wanted to leave Chang'an City now, it might be in the eyes of some people. , I also feel that the Xuan family is advancing by retreating, and wants to control His Majesty, right?

They really think too much, and their brains are so complicated that there are so many inner dramas.

Lai Junchen thought about it, now there is really no need for Xuan Shijing to lie to himself.

To be honest, now he feels a little regretful. If he had known this would be the result, he should not have used the Xuan family's knife in the first place. Although he handed the knife to His Majesty, but when he handed it over, His Majesty made a backhand and stabbed him. Besides, it was still a fatal blow to his body.

Xuan Shijing chatted with Lai Junchen, and Di Renjie arrived in the cell, because Xuan Shijing heard the voice of the guard outside greeting Di Renjie.

Di Renjie walked in, came to the door of Xuan Shijing's cell, and bowed his hands in salute.

"Mr. Xuan."

Xuan Shijing nodded, and bowed his hands in return.

"Huaiying, how are you doing recently?" Xuan Shijing asked: "The case is over, should it be easier?"

Di Renjie shook his head helplessly, and said: "This case is indeed over, but the affairs of Dali Temple have not changed at all, and Mr. Xu is recovering from his injuries. The rest can only be done by Mr. Zheng and me." After doing it, Duke Xuan should have guessed that now the court has not settled down, but all kinds of open and secret fights are fighting secretly, and the Dali Temple has also been affected to some extent."

What Di Renjie said was what Xuan Shijing told Dou Xiaoguo earlier, the blank period after the incident was over, it was time for all parties to fight for power and profit.

The lessons learned by the Xuan family cannot scare them.

"The matter of the court has nothing to do with your Dali Temple. In this matter, your Dali Temple has not lost anything. Even if someone wants to reach out to Dali Temple, they will not be able to reach in, so you don't need to worry. "Xuan Shijing said: "Hold on, basically nothing will happen. They fight and let them fight. Isn't the one-third of an acre of Dali Temple all yours?"

Di Renjie said: "Teacher, but Dali Temple, because of this case, it is really eye-catching. If some people use this excuse to attack Dali Temple, how should the students respond?"

"You don't have to deal with it, His Majesty will deal with it for you." Xuan Shijing said: "Huaiying, don't doubt your position in His Majesty's heart, you just need to sit in this seat, sit firmly, and do your own thing Internal matters are enough, these days, people in the imperial court are in panic, His Majesty is now trying to stabilize people's hearts, let alone let you have an accident."

Now the court is in chaos, let's see how Li Chengqian distributes the cake and calms the court down.

However, Li Chengqian locked himself in the cell of Dali Temple, maybe, because of his own matter, before he finally left, he had to add a fire to get out.

But what to do, Xuan Shijing really has to calm down and think about it, this cell is not a good place, but speaking of quietness, it is a good place.

It would have been even better if there was no noise from Lai Junchen and Suo Yuanli, a fellow whose mind was no longer clear.

"Huaiying, I have something to ask of you." Xuan Shijing said.

"Teacher, please tell me." Di Renjie said.

"Help me pay attention to the news on Zhuangzi. I'm afraid my family will be worried." Xuan Shijing said, "If they come to Chang'an City, you can help me arrange it outside."

Di Renjie nodded: "The student understands."

All Di Renjie had to do was help Xuan Shijing spread the news inside and out, nothing else.

Princess Jinyang will not come to Chang'an City in person. At this time, the only ones who can come to Chang'an City from the Xuan family are Gao Jun and Chang Le. They are Xuan Shijing's personal guards. The two of them came to Chang'an, inquired about the news, and contacted Xuan Shijing.

In the past, when Chang Le and Gao Jun were doing things, they would not deliberately shy away from those who secretly followed, because Xuan Shijing had told them not to shy away, but now it is different.

After Gao Jun and Chang Le arrived in Chang'an, the first thing they did was shake off their tails.

When doing things at this time, you have to take care of them, and you can't let them watch everything, and the two of them are very unhappy. Now it's all right, let them play in the back.

The people in the palace are indeed powerful, but no matter how powerful they are, they are still a little bit worse than the two guards of the Xuan family, Gao Jun and Chang Le, and their skills are not as good as Gao Jun and Chang Le.

But compared to the rest of the Xuan family, that is more than enough.

There are only two master guards of the Xuan family who can be called famous.
