Emperor Yongzheng
Chapter 66: 3 Law Division Meeting 2: A huge case entrusted to the lonely minister was forced to boa
Chapter 66: The three law ministers convened to detain two huge cases, and the lonely minister was forced to board the pirate ship.
Less than five months after Yongzheng ascended the throne, the coin-making case was followed by the Shanxi deficit case. After two waves of unrest, another wave of fraud cases in the imperial examinations surged, shocking the government and the public.On the second day after Li Wei sealed off the Gongyuan, Nuo Min, the governor of Shanxi, was imprisoned by iron chains and imprisoned by the Ministry of Criminal Justice.The imperial decree is imminent, and the examiners of the [-]th Chamber of Enke in Shuntian Prefecture headed by Zhang Tinglu are locked up to the Prison Temple for investigation. Even the plaintiff Yang Mingshi is also ordered to stop work and wait for the confrontation.People are watching in confusion, and the imperial decree is issued again. The team consists of Zhengqing of Dali Temple, Manchu Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.Immediately after the Mansion Report came out, the court sent an imperial edict ordering Li Fu, the envoy of Zhili School, to take the main examination, and to change the examination questions to re-examine Xiaolian.Then there was news that Zhang Tingyu, the minister of guards and military aircraft in Shangshufang, asked for an order to recuperate because of malaria, and he was granted the order to treat him at the government.Strict decrees were issued one after another, and everyone in the officialdom of the capital was panicked three times a day.
After receiving the imperial decree, Li Fu went to the Ministry of Officials to hand over his errand, and without stopping for a moment, he rushed to Prince Lian's mansion outside Chaoyang Gate in a sedan chair to listen to the training.He has been in Beijing for more than five years since Kangxi 56, and has been living in the west city to study behind closed doors. He seldom goes to the city, let alone outside the gate of the east city.Ever since the great general Wang Yun led the troops to the expedition, Kangxi's twenty or so sons were busy with housework, and the competition for the throne intensified. Who would dare to get involved in this kind of family destruction?What's more, Li Fu nourishes himself by reading, and Lian Yu is serious and careful in cultivating cliffs, and he is even more unwilling to make friends with this cadre who is jealous of the prince Baylor.However, Prince Lian Yun is the younger brother of Emperor Yongzheng after all, and now he is the chief minister of Shangshufang, who is also in charge of the four departments of rites, officials, households, and workers.Now that he has been selected as the chief examiner of Shuntian Mansion, he is the number one poor student in the Ministry of Rites, so it is unreasonable not to come to see Prince Lian for training.Li Fu sat in a brand-new eight-person green woolen official sedan chair, and rushed out of the old Qihua gate. Through the glass, he could see the majestic palace of the palace, the inverted building with three couplets and red red on the eight-story stone steps of white marble. At the gate, he lightly kicked the sedan chair with his foot and stopped.He bent down and came out, flicking the corner of his robe and was about to go forward to report, when he saw a eunuch coming over from a distance and asked:
"Which yamen?"
"I'm from the Ministry of Industry..."
"Where's the notebook?"
"Oh," Li Fu smiled self-consciously, looked at the young eunuch with a businesslike face, and said, "I didn't finish my words. Shuntian Mansion is a poor student, if you want to see Eighth Master, please teach me." The young eunuch had just been assigned to Prince Lian's mansion, and he was not familiar with the personnel. He heard that he was a Beijing official, so he knew that there was not much to squeeze, so he listened with a straight face. , nodded and said: "Your family will come back another day. Our lord has made an appointment with the ninth master, the thirteenth master, and the fourteenth master. This meeting is discussing the affairs of the general of the year. Order, all civil and military officials will not be seen! "Li Fu held back his breath and listened, then giggled and said: "You probably didn't understand, I'm a new student of politics!"
It stands to reason that the eunuch is made of wood, so it should be worth the weight of the word "xuezheng".Reluctantly, he didn't understand. Seeing that Li Fu couldn't take out the bag of silver, he became impatient and said, "boots and hats are the same, anyway, it's not Yongzheng! Please drive back and come back tomorrow!"
"Slap!" Before the eunuch finished speaking, Li Fu slapped Li Fu on the left cheek.Li Fu was furious immediately: "You don't know the state system or the imperial constitution, so you dare to be so arrogant! Long live God's emperor title dares to be so profane? You get out, tell Prince Lian, and say that the imperial envoy, Shuntian Mansion chief examiner Li Fu is here After passing, I told you to drive away! I’m going into Thorn City tomorrow, so I don’t care about coming back to receive training!” After saying that, he turned around and said, “Turn the sedan chair back to the city!”
The eunuch received a slap in the face unexpectedly, and stood there in a daze.He couldn't figure it out for a moment, how could this humble and smiling Confucian, crowned and poor Beijing official become so arrogant and domineering in an instant?Li Fu looked back coldly, and was about to get on the sedan chair when he saw a middle-aged eunuch panting over from Yimen, shouting at one end, "Is it Mrs. Li? Please stay!" After a few steps, a thousand He beat him down, and said with an apologetic smile, "Slave He Zhuer, I kowtowed to the imperial envoy!" Standing up, he bowed again, and turned around to scold the young eunuch, "You just got dizzy from eating shit! I'll talk to you bastard later!" Don't worry! Don't hurry up and take care of Mr. Li's followers—the house wine is already ready!" The eunuch realized that he had made a mistake today, and hurriedly clapped his hands, agreeing to what He Zhu'er said. When he wanted to come over to apologize, Li Fu had already moved away, and slowly asked, "The lord knows that I'm coming?" The two came out hand in hand from the hallway of the second gate, both of them stopped and stood sideways.
"Okay, the new chief examiner is here!" Yun Xiang clapped his hands and smiled from a distance, "I went to see the emperor this morning, and Ma Qi said: 'There have always been two chief examiners in the Shuntian Mansion Examination, and now only Li Fu is appointed, I'm afraid It's not in style." The emperor said: "If you want to be greedy for ink, it's the same for ten examiners—I'll only use Li Fu this time! I knew this person before he passed the exam. He is a decent scholar, and his articles are of good character." You listen to what the emperor said! It’s a good job, let’s get promoted in one fell swoop!”
Hearing this, Li Fu's heart became hot, so he quickly controlled it, bowed solemnly, lifted his robe and knelt down to kowtow to the two princes, got up and said solemnly: "How dare Li Fu live up to the high expectations of the Holy One? I want to be self-denying and self-cultivating, be prudent, and serve the country." Select real talents!" He was so serious, which made Yun Xiang feel uncomfortable, he was taken aback for a moment before he smiled and said, "Okay! I'll wait to see the champion you choose!" Yun's temperament is very similar to Yun Xiang's, but The old emperor passed away, and the new emperor ascended the pole in a violent storm, Yun Xiang became sophisticated and alert, but Yun became a little gloomy and indifferent.Originally, Yongzheng had a saying, "If Li Fu has the courage to try his own way, he will not escape my slaying." After hearing Yun Xiangyin's words, Yun just smiled calmly and said, "You go. Thirteenth Master and I are going to the Ministry of War .” After that, the two left.
Only then did Li Fu follow He Zhu'er through the Moon Cave Gate and enter the West Flower Hall.It was originally the place where the eight kings Yunping had a banquet, and the decoration is very exquisite.The two walked in slowly, but saw that the embroidered pavilions were uneven, the writing windows were slim, and the corridors were tortuous. All the way to the study room, there were four or fifty maids in red and green, and they were all young. Stunning.Seeing the two of them approaching, they each stood with their hands down to make way.Only then did He Zhu'er have the time to reply to Li Fu's words, and said in a low voice: "Master Li, the ticket for the evening ceremony came last night. The prince originally said that he would go to visit him in person, but the fourteenth and thirteenth masters came over. , discussing the matter of raising wages in the west, and Mr. Li Wei also ordered to preside over the joint trial of the two major cases, and also came to ask for instructions. Because the eighth master was thinking about you, he specially asked me to come out and take care of him. If he didn't want to run into the murderer Just now I am having trouble with adults—please go this way, this is the end—the sage said 'only a woman is difficult to raise a villain', you have a lot of adults, don't be angry with this kind of person—please, Baye is in this room! "When Li Fu looked up, he had reached the end of the verandah. The red lacquer columns in the outer compartment were separated by red sandalwood carvings. Five or six bird cages were hung under the corridor. The three characters are written in seal script by Nian Gengyao's father, Nian Xiaoling. Although they are not very good, the Teng Snake Gouqu is also quite charming.A crystal screen can be faintly seen behind the Xiangzhu curtain, and the study room is covered with large glass from the ground to the top. Looking through the glass, one knows that the house is rebuilt from a water-pressing pavilion, and fishing can be done by picking a pole from the window.Li Fu couldn't help sighing to himself, ten years of poverty, seven articles in three literary wars, and seven articles, what a hall with eight seats, it's a disappointment to come to such a rich and rich dragon family. off.While Fang pondered, he heard the voice of the eighth elder brother Yun inside:
"Mr. Julai? Don't sign up, please come in and talk!"
"Your Majesty, Li Fu!" Li Fu hurriedly responded, bowing across the curtain, and stepped in to salute. He saw that his ninth elder brother Yun was also sitting on the carved and decorated Taishi chair next to Yun.There was a person sitting on the stool below, but Li Fu knew it was Li Wei. Only in the corner of the room, on the spring stool on the side of the bookshelf, was a person with his legs tilted. He was wearing a sky-blue solid gauze jacket after the rain, and a bronze batulu. He was wearing a vest, holding a copy of "Langhuan Trivia" in his hands and looking at it intently, as if there was no one around, but he didn't recognize it.Seeing Li Fu's hesitation, Yun said with a smile: "Oh, this is the Tenth Master. You don't need to be polite. Just sit down and finish talking about the imprisonment and then talk about your errands. If it's late, just leave the meal here. ." Because he turned to Li Wei and said: "As I said just now, I didn't intend to keep you in Beijing. But the Nuo Min case involved officials from Tong Province in Shanxi; the case in the examination room was apparently related to nineteen officials, but There are so many abuses in it that even Zhang Hengchen avoided it due to suspicion. Counting it all, in the 79 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there has never been such a big case. I'm afraid that Ma Qi will be too busy alone, and Tu Lichen and you will still go to their own places after the help is finished. Damn it. Don't shirk it. Who doesn't know that you, Li You, are the number one capable official in the case of cheating?"
"I met the emperor yesterday, and I resigned." Li Wei's brows trembled slightly, and he said with a half-smile, "My lord knows that things in Shandong are even more difficult. In the past ten years without Jackie Chan, it has almost become a world of robbers. The hungry people in Dongping Lake, Weishan Lake, and Baodugu rebelled. A Taoist with an iron crown, contacted the Jianghu martial arts master Gan Fengchi, Lu Siniang and others. On the surface, he competed in Shandong, but in fact he was meeting people from all walks of life. It's hard to say what An's thoughts are. "Shandong is in chaos before the ashes are cold" - this place has been a place since ancient times Restless place - no matter how entangled the case is with the capital, it can always be handled calmly. I talked well with the emperor yesterday, why did it change today? I want to hand over the sign to see the emperor, but I have to say something in my heart It's a pleasure."
Yun listened with a smile and said: "Again, don't get angry, it's not my idea to keep you in Beijing. It's Ma Qi who thinks there are not enough manpower, so please let me keep you. If you want to hand over the sign, I have no right to stop you, but if you are willing Listen to my advice, there is no need to do anything superfluous. I know the errands in Shandong, and I have already asked Cai to block it for a while. Didn’t your blind man Wu also go? You are exquisite and clear, and you don’t need to beat the drum hard, isn’t it true? Do you know why Ma Qi kept you? It’s not good to pierce some paper, you say so!” After finishing speaking, he flicked the tea leaves with the lid of the bowl and remained silent, with a smile on his lips.Li Fuyuan was also ignorant: the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, plus Shuntian Mansion, the infantry commanded the yamen, Ma Qi was the main one, and there was Yun Zuoer on the top, so he couldn't handle these two cases?After being reminded like this, I realized that Nuo Min is Ma Qi's protégé, Yang Mingshi is a protégé of Zhao Shenqiao, Minister of Criminal Affairs, Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu have been colleagues for many years, and Zhang Tinglu is Zhang Tingyu's younger brother. Old friends, the case is facing each other, life and death are short-lived, not to mention the years of grievances between Longkoduo and Ma Qi Zhang Tingyu, dating back to the 47th year of Kangxi, the old feud between the Longkoduo family and the thirteenth elder brother Yunxiang...all in these two cases The mediator is thoughtful, who doesn't want an extra backer, and who doesn't want to have an extra backer?
"My lord has said so much, I can't say anything more." Li Fu was thinking wildly, when Li Wei lowered his head and sighed and said, "I'm on business. But I also want to say a word to my lord. Since this matter is in my hands If I can be considerate, I will try my best to be considerate. If I can't be considerate, I will not be considerate. There is no distinction between the virtuous, the foolish, the noble and the humble. Regardless of your family background, I will deal with it according to the law. Don't blame if it doesn't suit the prince's heart. If you are so considerate, I will I am satisfied." Yun, who was reading a book, suddenly sat up straight, and scolded with a smile: "It is worthy of the nickname 'ghost is hard to deal with'! Are you afraid that Ba Ye will cheat you? What you say is like a book from heaven, I can't understand it ——What fox-whistle riddle did you play?"
Li Wei seemed to be very casual with Yun, and his smile changed the taste of his mouth, teasing and mocking, "Master Shi, a big-headed ghost, is trying to pester me? I'm running away! Master Shi was confused like a mirror in his heart. If the case is not going well, there will be a presiding judge after the criminal is tried! A candle is lit at both ends, how can it be thoughtful? Pulling my hair and planting the beard of others, is this the idea of Master Shi?" The words made everyone roar Laughing, Yun leaned back on the spring bench and shook with laughter, pointed at Li Wei with the handle of his fan and said, "You hozen, get out of here, the eggs are going to laugh!" Li Wei smiled and got up to drink tea , came over and patted Li Fu on the back of the head, who was sitting upright, and said, "Hey, a sect, it's your turn!"
"What kind of 'Zong'?" Li Fu has always regarded himself as a Taoist Confucianist, a well-known Jinshi, and he looks down on Li Wei's temperament that sometimes pretends to be serious and sometimes has a temper. It was hard to get angry, straightened up and said: "I am Jiangxi Li, and you are Jiangnan Li, how can you be a 'one sect'?" Li Wei didn't care, and said with a more playful smile: "You have no beard on your chin, it really should be planted. Gen, a Li in Jiangnan, Jiangxi, haven’t you read about Zhang Xianzhong offering sacrifices to Zhang Feimiao? “My father’s surname is Li, and your surname is also Li, so let’s join the clan!” Do you think Li Weiguang will be a beggar?” Then he laughed loudly. With a bow, he went on his own.
Yun looked at Li Wei's back and scolded something with a smile, then fell down to read a book, but Yun turned to Li Fu and smiled, "Mr. Julai is not used to seeing such wildness, is he?" Li Fu never thought of this high position and weight The number one prince next to the emperor asked this question as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't help being startled for a moment, then he bowed in his seat and replied: "Returning to the prince, Li Wei and the two princes are in an orderly manner, and the righteousness of the monarch and ministers is listed in the three cardinal principles. This is not called wildness, this is called indecent and frivolous!" Yun, who was half lying down, heard this, sat up straight, this well-known "ridiculous prince" looked very solemn, stared at Li Fu, and sighed after a long while : "On the day when rites collapse and music is destroyed, what are the three cardinal principles and five constant principles?"
"Old Ten, don't talk about these things." Yun Xuan glanced at Yun, and then said to Li Fu: "Li Wei was originally a servant of the Emperor Longqian's mansion, but he was born as a beggar. It is natural for him not to read and be smart. He has been used to walking around the palace since he was a child. , familiar and informal. Back then he sold my front wall as a prank!" He looked out of the window, talking slowly, recalling the past seems to be filled with emotion.After a long time, he laughed again and said, "Let's not talk about him—are you going to enter the Gongyuan tomorrow?"
Li Fu bowed slightly, and said: "Yes. I have asked my family to send their luggage to Longmen. I won't be returning to the mansion tonight. I will be working there. Tomorrow morning I will go to the Tribute Academy alone to preside over the political examination. I am here to invite the prince to teach me!"
"It's not a 'training'." Yun nodded and said, "Some people say that there are no upright officials in the Qing Dynasty. I don’t accept all the ice and charcoal gifts that come in?” Li Fu didn’t expect that the Eight Kings knew him so well, and he was moved in his heart, and he hurriedly said with a smile: “That’s true. Sometimes I want to come, but I’m afraid that others will say that I’m hypocritical, my family is scholarly. I’m not rich, but I’m not poor either, and I’m living on a servant’s salary, and I don’t make friends, and I’m just eating and living, so I don’t need that little money.” “How many people like this are there now? "Yun sighed, "I was fortunate enough to see the demeanor of Yu Jackie Chan, Guo, and Lu Longqi in the early years, but now I have nothing to do with it. You don't love money, this is the first-class rare thing, Long Live God has chosen you to host Tribute test, it can be seen that the candle of the Sacred Heart is illuminated, so there is no need for me to ask you more."
Allowing these words to be spoken eloquently, it seems to be admonishing and exhorting, and it is also like good friends cutting candles to encourage each other. Li Fu felt reverence spontaneously in his heart, and he couldn't help thinking, "People say that Prince Lian is the 'Eight Sage King', Sure enough, he has insight and style!" Then he thought of Yongzheng's defense against Yun everywhere, suspicion and jealousy abounded, and he felt a chill in his heart.Thinking about it, he stood up and said, "Baye. If there is no other order from the king, I will leave!"
"Aren't you willing to eat with me?" Yun Ye stood up and stared at Li Fu, and said, "That's fine, that's it! One more thing, these Xiaolians have been admitted for five days, and now they have to take the exam again. It turns out that the food I brought in may not be enough. He Zhuer went to the Ministry of Rites this morning, and heard that some people had run out of food and fainted from hunger. The imperial court chose the wrong examiner at the beginning, and the responsibility for this must be taken by the imperial court. I have issued a sign to the Ministry of Household Affairs, The treasury will supply the silver, and each juzi will provide 18 taels of white rice, a catty of green vegetables, four cents of oil, and three taels of meat per day. They will be counted and stored every day. ——Let’s be exhausted!”
Seeing that Li Fu had resigned, Yun threw away the book in his hand and stood up, saying, "I think this talent has learned well and has a good conscience. Myna, why do you speak official Chinese?" The curtain came in and saw Yun leaning in front of the window. Yun and Yun were talking here, because they asked: "It's only going to be sooner or later? I saw Li Fu go out just now-how is this person?" Grabbing a thread, pulling it carefully, stretching out his hand out of the window and jerking it up, a two-foot-long green silver carp was caught in the study, jumped up and down a few times happily, puffing its cheeks on the blue brick. Underground extension.
"Li Fu is not something in my pool." Yun stared at the rippling blue waves outside the window, and a peach forest on the other side was shaking in the water, like pink clouds burning in the ground.Yun's eyes were also sparkling, and Fang Xu said after a long time, "If the appearance is strong, there must be shortcomings. Have you noticed? There are so many jewels and antiques in this study. Li Wei came in and looked at this one and that one, envious. But he put it down carelessly. Li Fu didn't look sideways, and sat upright from the beginning to the end-it seems that he is not tempted by material desires, but actually uses restraint. What use can I use this kind of false Taoism?" After finishing speaking, he let out a deep sigh, "When it comes to employing people, after all, we are inferior to the fourth child—you can see that by looking at Li Wei, a true beggar, he has been trained to become a great weapon! We used to be caged in our sleeves as a Dear people, how many people can you really count on now? You have to look for it now!" Pointing to the fish in the ground, Yun called a eunuch in, and said: "This fish was cleaned up by the Lord and served with wine. ——Brother, today is a lucky day, I have invited a god for you, it will be of great use! You can be regarded as a big fish!"
Yun's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Who?"
"Guess, there will be a prize for guessing!"
Yun lifted his spirits and asked, "Could it be Longkodo?"Yun exclaimed: "Tiangong Patriarch Tathagata is my Buddha! Long Kedo will come to join us? ——Where? I'll go and see!"
"What are you busy with?" Yun waved his hand, and said with a giggle, "I just took the bait. We slowly rowed the boat to catch drunken fish. You and the starling are not suitable to see each other today. Let me and the old fourteen talk to him first!" Yun Looking at the smiling fourteenth elder brother, he said: "Okay, you have it! You got hung up so quickly? ——how is the matter of drafting girls for the emperor going?"
Yun said with a smile, "Do you think I'm still a [-]-year-old now? I've been through a lot of hardships for a long time! Brother Thirteen has left the matter of draft girls to me, and I've taken care of it - I fooled the fourth child Eyes and ears, you have done great things, and now that you have an eye, you must reward me first!" "OK!" Yun said enthusiastically, "I will give you ten gold-encrusted blunderbuss for my dear brother - Longkodo has come to my house, Wouldn’t it be nice if I didn’t meet you?”
Yun Yin shook her head with a smile, and said: "He just entered Hong Kong, are you so impatient? We can't lose our value, and we can't wake up this drunk fish all of a sudden—I'd better see him first with Old Fourteen. My life should belong to me, he is doomed!" Yun tightened his belt, tossed his braids, and said with a smile, "Ninth brother, let's go, we will meet this important minister of 'Tuogu'!"
The two brothers bypassed the study room, followed the weeping willow along the side of the pond to the north, crossed the rose flower cave, and heard the clear and crisp sound of the pipa coming from the distance in the study room "Waiyunju" of Yun Pingsu's guest: sometimes the mournful sound is as cold as The water drips in the cold spring, and sometimes the strings are like bursting beans.A woman sang along with her pipa in a calm voice:
Qunfang competes for beauty, five colors Lingsu, it is actually jealousy.The qin is still there, and the imperial palace has a new voice... Jinshui has its driving, and the Han Palace has its wood.To be close to each other, to be a man of the world, to be blinded by lewdness and not to realize it!Zhu Xian, Ming Jing Que, Chao Lu, Fang Sheng Xie, Bai Tou Yin, Wounded Parting——Work hard to add food, don't miss concubines!Jinshuitangtang, long-term secrets with the king...Writing about women's long-term secrets to men, it also contains concern and sentimentality.Provenance unknown.
Yun stepped into the study room, clapped at the door and laughed loudly: "What a 'new voice replaces the past'! What a 'reluctant to be obscene but not enlightened'! Lao Long, are you engrossed in listening?"
Longkodo sat in the chair and was thinking about something. The woman sang something that didn't catch his ears. He heard Yun's voice, and he trembled in fright. The smile was bright and cheerful——jumped up quickly, took a step forward and knocked down Qian'er, saying: "Greetings to the two masters!"
"Oh, I don't dare to be it!" Yun hurriedly clasped his hands together, and said with a grin, "The emperor's uncle with a famous brand, Tuo Gu's important minister, sees the emperor and is puzzled by his sword and shoes, let alone us—what kind of famous brand are we, dare to accept uncle's gift?" Get up, sit down!" Yun said, Yun had already sat in the first place carelessly, without even looking at Longko, he waved his hands and told the hatchback: "Go down!"
The kabuki waiting on the hatchback stood up hurriedly, and quietly retreated with their zithers and sheng.The study here does not have as many antiques as in "Yizhixuan". Except for the big chime clock at the north corner of the west gable, there are several desks and chairs around the ring room. Lonely and boring.Seeing that the ninth elder brother was not yin or yang, Longkodo ignored him, and the fourteenth elder brother also returned to his seat with a smile on his face. He was more and more confused, and leaned forward to take his seat. Didn't come down?"
…………
Neither of the two elder brothers answered. Hearing the "click" of the clock ringing in the corner, the fourteenth elder brother sat casually in his clothes, took a sip of tea and then put it down gently. Longkodo asked, "Uncle, do you know who invited you and why?"
"I know." Longkodo already felt that the smell was not right. Hearing Yun's gloomy question, his hands shook slightly, and the tea almost spilled out. However, he was deeply involved in the world, so he calmed down quickly, leaned back and said, "Yes The eunuchs and ministers from Jiu Ye's Mansion came to discuss matters at the Baye's Mansion, and the Eighth Master wanted to ask about the draft girl." "The House of Internal Affairs is now under the management of the Thirteenth Master, and the Eighth Master is too lazy to take care of these trivial matters." After frost, his tone became as dry as dry wood, "It's Jiu Ye and I, borrowing the treasure land of Ba Ye, to shake hands with you, Lao Long!" It took me a long time to come back to my senses, and suddenly, I let out a piercing laugh like an owl, "The Fourteenth Master can really joke! The Tong family has always been close to the Eighth Master, the Ninth Master, the Tenth Master, and the Fourteenth Master. There is no enmity in the past, no resentment in the near future, and there is no feeling of enmity, how come the word "reconciliation"?" After speaking, he stood up and bowed, and said: "If there is nothing else, I will go."
Yun just asked a straight-forward question. Seeing that the treacherous and slippery Longko was about to slip away, and was about to stop him, Yun giggled beside him and said, "Fourteenth brother, it's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Uncle, let me go." Don't stop! Isn't uncle just going to see Tu Lichen for a court case? Tell him to go!"
As soon as Longkodo took a step, he was firmly nailed to the ground by these words, and he couldn't help shivering.
"What deal did uncle and Zhang Tinglu make?" Yun blew on the matchmaker but didn't smoke, and blew it out again with a "thump", "You won three out of the first ten!" Long It was only then that Kodo knew that these elder brothers had great powers, and they somehow got the proof that he and Zhang Tinglu accepted bribes together, and they wanted to use this to drag himself into the water.Thinking about it, Longkodo was sweating heavily.After a long time, he realized that entering the muddy water of Prince Lian was even more extraordinary. He forced himself to calm down, returned to his seat, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Jiuye is right, but Jiuye don't forget, the three first-class Jinshi, one is said by Shiye, one is said by He Zhuer of Baye's mansion, and the other is said by Nian Gengyao. I have learned it on behalf of others. Have a sense of propriety—my lord is considerate, there are some things I can't do!"
After listening to it with a sneer, Yun said after a long while: "Yeah——uncle is so clean? Nian Gengyao's servant doesn't talk about him, the eighth and tenth masters, sons and phoenixes, would do that. Who would believe it? Our servant's confidant If you want to be an official, you need your uncle’s help? What evidence does your uncle have for saying this? Since your uncle has a good reputation, why should you be afraid of Tulichen, a bastard? Take a pig’s head to a mosque, you’ve worshiped the wrong temple!” He jumped up abruptly. , pacing and approaching Longkodo, with great coercion in his hoarse voice: "I also know that you, an important official of 'Tuogu', can't be defeated by just a few bribes. What I want to say today is not About the examination room. I want to ask you, how did Tong Guowei die, who committed the murder, and why did he commit the murder? Huh?" As if there was an unexplained explosion in the clear sky of Jiao Lei, Long Kedo immediately turned pale, sweat drenched through his heavy clothes, he He fell into the chair with a "plop" and murmured: "How did Uncle Liu die? How do I know? He is my uncle, why did I want to kill him?..." Before he finished speaking, he slipped his tongue, and he was terrified. He opened his mouth wide and buried his head deeply.
"Yes, it's your cousin. Why do you want to harm him?" Yun stared at Longkodo tightly, not giving him any room to breathe. "What kind of agreement do you have with your cousin? For example, Tong Guowei Help the eighth master, you Longkoduo, help the fourth master, and seize this beautiful world. No matter who wins or loses, anyway, your Tong family has everything going for it... Well, for another example, you happened to bet on the right thing, Longkoduo, But it was not appropriate for the document to fall into the hands of the 'Sixth Uncle'. In this way, the 'Sixth Uncle' would get 'ill' and have to take medicine... It was that simple - so the 'Sixth Uncle' was as good as five The drum holds the moon in the mountain, life is like running out of oil in the middle of the night - don't look at me like this, weirdo - the rest of the matter will be easy to handle, as long as you find the contract, you can take over this Baidi City with peace of mind. The Tuo Guchen here...
"You didn't expect that the mansion of 'Sixth Uncle' rewarded the third master Hongshi, so you turned to Hongshi again and begged him to give you the house as a gift. Of course he can't give it to you for nothing. You have to 'board', because Hongshi Now it’s time to compete with Hongli for the power of succession. Are you someone who can be used? How many days have I seen you digging three feet in your “Uncle Six’s” house in search of “treasures”, and I’ve been laughing at you. You are so stupid, and you underestimated that 'old coffin' - he is not as good as you in everything, as long as you are loyal to the owner, you will not be able to catch up with him in eight lifetimes! As soon as he got sick, he knew that someone was plotting against him, so he gave this to me ——Look at this piece of rice paper, um, if you want to buy this palm-sized paper alone, it’s not worth a Yongzheng boy—but it has characters on the head and a proof of painting! It’s about worth a minister of the study room, a prince and a grand protector , a bloody head of the Minister of the Guards, the Minister of Military Aircraft, the Chief of the Imperial Forest Army of the Capital, and the Admiral of the Nine Gates!"
Yun Lian sneered and mocked, triumphantly held up the piece of paper, waved it, and handed it to Yun who was in a daze: "Fourteenth brother, you are leading troops outside, and you have killed the Mongols on their backs, but you know that the capital is not moving?" The sword doesn't move the gun, but it's also the shadow of the candle, the axe, the sound box, the sword, the curtain and the lamp! Our uncle can be regarded as the protagonist!"
"Stop talking!" Longkodo raised his head suddenly, his eyes wandered and glanced at the contract, which shone with a dark iron gray light, and after a long time, he lowered his head again: "You...what do you want me to do? "
Yun glanced at the "uncle" who was completely crushed, said nothing, and slapped three times calmly. Two lines of actresses walked in from the side door, all of them with bare temples, light hair and low frowns, playing the kite all the way Blow flute, drum and Yu wave strings, and sing in a manly voice:
A crescent moon reflects the virtual corridor,
The Bihan Red Wall is far away.
Desperately looking forward to the beautiful woman after autumn,
Retweeting the beautiful sentence and sending it to Donglang...
"Let's have fun now, don't ask uncle to do anything." Yun glanced at Yun, "Don't worry, starlings never let people fail—does uncle say, fourteenth brother, the king of the general?"
"Wonderful." Yun clapped his hands and smiled, and said.
Long Kedo's eyes were drunk, looking at these beauties like an idiot, his heart was blank, and he didn't even know what he was thinking.
(End of this chapter)
Less than five months after Yongzheng ascended the throne, the coin-making case was followed by the Shanxi deficit case. After two waves of unrest, another wave of fraud cases in the imperial examinations surged, shocking the government and the public.On the second day after Li Wei sealed off the Gongyuan, Nuo Min, the governor of Shanxi, was imprisoned by iron chains and imprisoned by the Ministry of Criminal Justice.The imperial decree is imminent, and the examiners of the [-]th Chamber of Enke in Shuntian Prefecture headed by Zhang Tinglu are locked up to the Prison Temple for investigation. Even the plaintiff Yang Mingshi is also ordered to stop work and wait for the confrontation.People are watching in confusion, and the imperial decree is issued again. The team consists of Zhengqing of Dali Temple, Manchu Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.Immediately after the Mansion Report came out, the court sent an imperial edict ordering Li Fu, the envoy of Zhili School, to take the main examination, and to change the examination questions to re-examine Xiaolian.Then there was news that Zhang Tingyu, the minister of guards and military aircraft in Shangshufang, asked for an order to recuperate because of malaria, and he was granted the order to treat him at the government.Strict decrees were issued one after another, and everyone in the officialdom of the capital was panicked three times a day.
After receiving the imperial decree, Li Fu went to the Ministry of Officials to hand over his errand, and without stopping for a moment, he rushed to Prince Lian's mansion outside Chaoyang Gate in a sedan chair to listen to the training.He has been in Beijing for more than five years since Kangxi 56, and has been living in the west city to study behind closed doors. He seldom goes to the city, let alone outside the gate of the east city.Ever since the great general Wang Yun led the troops to the expedition, Kangxi's twenty or so sons were busy with housework, and the competition for the throne intensified. Who would dare to get involved in this kind of family destruction?What's more, Li Fu nourishes himself by reading, and Lian Yu is serious and careful in cultivating cliffs, and he is even more unwilling to make friends with this cadre who is jealous of the prince Baylor.However, Prince Lian Yun is the younger brother of Emperor Yongzheng after all, and now he is the chief minister of Shangshufang, who is also in charge of the four departments of rites, officials, households, and workers.Now that he has been selected as the chief examiner of Shuntian Mansion, he is the number one poor student in the Ministry of Rites, so it is unreasonable not to come to see Prince Lian for training.Li Fu sat in a brand-new eight-person green woolen official sedan chair, and rushed out of the old Qihua gate. Through the glass, he could see the majestic palace of the palace, the inverted building with three couplets and red red on the eight-story stone steps of white marble. At the gate, he lightly kicked the sedan chair with his foot and stopped.He bent down and came out, flicking the corner of his robe and was about to go forward to report, when he saw a eunuch coming over from a distance and asked:
"Which yamen?"
"I'm from the Ministry of Industry..."
"Where's the notebook?"
"Oh," Li Fu smiled self-consciously, looked at the young eunuch with a businesslike face, and said, "I didn't finish my words. Shuntian Mansion is a poor student, if you want to see Eighth Master, please teach me." The young eunuch had just been assigned to Prince Lian's mansion, and he was not familiar with the personnel. He heard that he was a Beijing official, so he knew that there was not much to squeeze, so he listened with a straight face. , nodded and said: "Your family will come back another day. Our lord has made an appointment with the ninth master, the thirteenth master, and the fourteenth master. This meeting is discussing the affairs of the general of the year. Order, all civil and military officials will not be seen! "Li Fu held back his breath and listened, then giggled and said: "You probably didn't understand, I'm a new student of politics!"
It stands to reason that the eunuch is made of wood, so it should be worth the weight of the word "xuezheng".Reluctantly, he didn't understand. Seeing that Li Fu couldn't take out the bag of silver, he became impatient and said, "boots and hats are the same, anyway, it's not Yongzheng! Please drive back and come back tomorrow!"
"Slap!" Before the eunuch finished speaking, Li Fu slapped Li Fu on the left cheek.Li Fu was furious immediately: "You don't know the state system or the imperial constitution, so you dare to be so arrogant! Long live God's emperor title dares to be so profane? You get out, tell Prince Lian, and say that the imperial envoy, Shuntian Mansion chief examiner Li Fu is here After passing, I told you to drive away! I’m going into Thorn City tomorrow, so I don’t care about coming back to receive training!” After saying that, he turned around and said, “Turn the sedan chair back to the city!”
The eunuch received a slap in the face unexpectedly, and stood there in a daze.He couldn't figure it out for a moment, how could this humble and smiling Confucian, crowned and poor Beijing official become so arrogant and domineering in an instant?Li Fu looked back coldly, and was about to get on the sedan chair when he saw a middle-aged eunuch panting over from Yimen, shouting at one end, "Is it Mrs. Li? Please stay!" After a few steps, a thousand He beat him down, and said with an apologetic smile, "Slave He Zhuer, I kowtowed to the imperial envoy!" Standing up, he bowed again, and turned around to scold the young eunuch, "You just got dizzy from eating shit! I'll talk to you bastard later!" Don't worry! Don't hurry up and take care of Mr. Li's followers—the house wine is already ready!" The eunuch realized that he had made a mistake today, and hurriedly clapped his hands, agreeing to what He Zhu'er said. When he wanted to come over to apologize, Li Fu had already moved away, and slowly asked, "The lord knows that I'm coming?" The two came out hand in hand from the hallway of the second gate, both of them stopped and stood sideways.
"Okay, the new chief examiner is here!" Yun Xiang clapped his hands and smiled from a distance, "I went to see the emperor this morning, and Ma Qi said: 'There have always been two chief examiners in the Shuntian Mansion Examination, and now only Li Fu is appointed, I'm afraid It's not in style." The emperor said: "If you want to be greedy for ink, it's the same for ten examiners—I'll only use Li Fu this time! I knew this person before he passed the exam. He is a decent scholar, and his articles are of good character." You listen to what the emperor said! It’s a good job, let’s get promoted in one fell swoop!”
Hearing this, Li Fu's heart became hot, so he quickly controlled it, bowed solemnly, lifted his robe and knelt down to kowtow to the two princes, got up and said solemnly: "How dare Li Fu live up to the high expectations of the Holy One? I want to be self-denying and self-cultivating, be prudent, and serve the country." Select real talents!" He was so serious, which made Yun Xiang feel uncomfortable, he was taken aback for a moment before he smiled and said, "Okay! I'll wait to see the champion you choose!" Yun's temperament is very similar to Yun Xiang's, but The old emperor passed away, and the new emperor ascended the pole in a violent storm, Yun Xiang became sophisticated and alert, but Yun became a little gloomy and indifferent.Originally, Yongzheng had a saying, "If Li Fu has the courage to try his own way, he will not escape my slaying." After hearing Yun Xiangyin's words, Yun just smiled calmly and said, "You go. Thirteenth Master and I are going to the Ministry of War .” After that, the two left.
Only then did Li Fu follow He Zhu'er through the Moon Cave Gate and enter the West Flower Hall.It was originally the place where the eight kings Yunping had a banquet, and the decoration is very exquisite.The two walked in slowly, but saw that the embroidered pavilions were uneven, the writing windows were slim, and the corridors were tortuous. All the way to the study room, there were four or fifty maids in red and green, and they were all young. Stunning.Seeing the two of them approaching, they each stood with their hands down to make way.Only then did He Zhu'er have the time to reply to Li Fu's words, and said in a low voice: "Master Li, the ticket for the evening ceremony came last night. The prince originally said that he would go to visit him in person, but the fourteenth and thirteenth masters came over. , discussing the matter of raising wages in the west, and Mr. Li Wei also ordered to preside over the joint trial of the two major cases, and also came to ask for instructions. Because the eighth master was thinking about you, he specially asked me to come out and take care of him. If he didn't want to run into the murderer Just now I am having trouble with adults—please go this way, this is the end—the sage said 'only a woman is difficult to raise a villain', you have a lot of adults, don't be angry with this kind of person—please, Baye is in this room! "When Li Fu looked up, he had reached the end of the verandah. The red lacquer columns in the outer compartment were separated by red sandalwood carvings. Five or six bird cages were hung under the corridor. The three characters are written in seal script by Nian Gengyao's father, Nian Xiaoling. Although they are not very good, the Teng Snake Gouqu is also quite charming.A crystal screen can be faintly seen behind the Xiangzhu curtain, and the study room is covered with large glass from the ground to the top. Looking through the glass, one knows that the house is rebuilt from a water-pressing pavilion, and fishing can be done by picking a pole from the window.Li Fu couldn't help sighing to himself, ten years of poverty, seven articles in three literary wars, and seven articles, what a hall with eight seats, it's a disappointment to come to such a rich and rich dragon family. off.While Fang pondered, he heard the voice of the eighth elder brother Yun inside:
"Mr. Julai? Don't sign up, please come in and talk!"
"Your Majesty, Li Fu!" Li Fu hurriedly responded, bowing across the curtain, and stepped in to salute. He saw that his ninth elder brother Yun was also sitting on the carved and decorated Taishi chair next to Yun.There was a person sitting on the stool below, but Li Fu knew it was Li Wei. Only in the corner of the room, on the spring stool on the side of the bookshelf, was a person with his legs tilted. He was wearing a sky-blue solid gauze jacket after the rain, and a bronze batulu. He was wearing a vest, holding a copy of "Langhuan Trivia" in his hands and looking at it intently, as if there was no one around, but he didn't recognize it.Seeing Li Fu's hesitation, Yun said with a smile: "Oh, this is the Tenth Master. You don't need to be polite. Just sit down and finish talking about the imprisonment and then talk about your errands. If it's late, just leave the meal here. ." Because he turned to Li Wei and said: "As I said just now, I didn't intend to keep you in Beijing. But the Nuo Min case involved officials from Tong Province in Shanxi; the case in the examination room was apparently related to nineteen officials, but There are so many abuses in it that even Zhang Hengchen avoided it due to suspicion. Counting it all, in the 79 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there has never been such a big case. I'm afraid that Ma Qi will be too busy alone, and Tu Lichen and you will still go to their own places after the help is finished. Damn it. Don't shirk it. Who doesn't know that you, Li You, are the number one capable official in the case of cheating?"
"I met the emperor yesterday, and I resigned." Li Wei's brows trembled slightly, and he said with a half-smile, "My lord knows that things in Shandong are even more difficult. In the past ten years without Jackie Chan, it has almost become a world of robbers. The hungry people in Dongping Lake, Weishan Lake, and Baodugu rebelled. A Taoist with an iron crown, contacted the Jianghu martial arts master Gan Fengchi, Lu Siniang and others. On the surface, he competed in Shandong, but in fact he was meeting people from all walks of life. It's hard to say what An's thoughts are. "Shandong is in chaos before the ashes are cold" - this place has been a place since ancient times Restless place - no matter how entangled the case is with the capital, it can always be handled calmly. I talked well with the emperor yesterday, why did it change today? I want to hand over the sign to see the emperor, but I have to say something in my heart It's a pleasure."
Yun listened with a smile and said: "Again, don't get angry, it's not my idea to keep you in Beijing. It's Ma Qi who thinks there are not enough manpower, so please let me keep you. If you want to hand over the sign, I have no right to stop you, but if you are willing Listen to my advice, there is no need to do anything superfluous. I know the errands in Shandong, and I have already asked Cai to block it for a while. Didn’t your blind man Wu also go? You are exquisite and clear, and you don’t need to beat the drum hard, isn’t it true? Do you know why Ma Qi kept you? It’s not good to pierce some paper, you say so!” After finishing speaking, he flicked the tea leaves with the lid of the bowl and remained silent, with a smile on his lips.Li Fuyuan was also ignorant: the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, plus Shuntian Mansion, the infantry commanded the yamen, Ma Qi was the main one, and there was Yun Zuoer on the top, so he couldn't handle these two cases?After being reminded like this, I realized that Nuo Min is Ma Qi's protégé, Yang Mingshi is a protégé of Zhao Shenqiao, Minister of Criminal Affairs, Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu have been colleagues for many years, and Zhang Tinglu is Zhang Tingyu's younger brother. Old friends, the case is facing each other, life and death are short-lived, not to mention the years of grievances between Longkoduo and Ma Qi Zhang Tingyu, dating back to the 47th year of Kangxi, the old feud between the Longkoduo family and the thirteenth elder brother Yunxiang...all in these two cases The mediator is thoughtful, who doesn't want an extra backer, and who doesn't want to have an extra backer?
"My lord has said so much, I can't say anything more." Li Fu was thinking wildly, when Li Wei lowered his head and sighed and said, "I'm on business. But I also want to say a word to my lord. Since this matter is in my hands If I can be considerate, I will try my best to be considerate. If I can't be considerate, I will not be considerate. There is no distinction between the virtuous, the foolish, the noble and the humble. Regardless of your family background, I will deal with it according to the law. Don't blame if it doesn't suit the prince's heart. If you are so considerate, I will I am satisfied." Yun, who was reading a book, suddenly sat up straight, and scolded with a smile: "It is worthy of the nickname 'ghost is hard to deal with'! Are you afraid that Ba Ye will cheat you? What you say is like a book from heaven, I can't understand it ——What fox-whistle riddle did you play?"
Li Wei seemed to be very casual with Yun, and his smile changed the taste of his mouth, teasing and mocking, "Master Shi, a big-headed ghost, is trying to pester me? I'm running away! Master Shi was confused like a mirror in his heart. If the case is not going well, there will be a presiding judge after the criminal is tried! A candle is lit at both ends, how can it be thoughtful? Pulling my hair and planting the beard of others, is this the idea of Master Shi?" The words made everyone roar Laughing, Yun leaned back on the spring bench and shook with laughter, pointed at Li Wei with the handle of his fan and said, "You hozen, get out of here, the eggs are going to laugh!" Li Wei smiled and got up to drink tea , came over and patted Li Fu on the back of the head, who was sitting upright, and said, "Hey, a sect, it's your turn!"
"What kind of 'Zong'?" Li Fu has always regarded himself as a Taoist Confucianist, a well-known Jinshi, and he looks down on Li Wei's temperament that sometimes pretends to be serious and sometimes has a temper. It was hard to get angry, straightened up and said: "I am Jiangxi Li, and you are Jiangnan Li, how can you be a 'one sect'?" Li Wei didn't care, and said with a more playful smile: "You have no beard on your chin, it really should be planted. Gen, a Li in Jiangnan, Jiangxi, haven’t you read about Zhang Xianzhong offering sacrifices to Zhang Feimiao? “My father’s surname is Li, and your surname is also Li, so let’s join the clan!” Do you think Li Weiguang will be a beggar?” Then he laughed loudly. With a bow, he went on his own.
Yun looked at Li Wei's back and scolded something with a smile, then fell down to read a book, but Yun turned to Li Fu and smiled, "Mr. Julai is not used to seeing such wildness, is he?" Li Fu never thought of this high position and weight The number one prince next to the emperor asked this question as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't help being startled for a moment, then he bowed in his seat and replied: "Returning to the prince, Li Wei and the two princes are in an orderly manner, and the righteousness of the monarch and ministers is listed in the three cardinal principles. This is not called wildness, this is called indecent and frivolous!" Yun, who was half lying down, heard this, sat up straight, this well-known "ridiculous prince" looked very solemn, stared at Li Fu, and sighed after a long while : "On the day when rites collapse and music is destroyed, what are the three cardinal principles and five constant principles?"
"Old Ten, don't talk about these things." Yun Xuan glanced at Yun, and then said to Li Fu: "Li Wei was originally a servant of the Emperor Longqian's mansion, but he was born as a beggar. It is natural for him not to read and be smart. He has been used to walking around the palace since he was a child. , familiar and informal. Back then he sold my front wall as a prank!" He looked out of the window, talking slowly, recalling the past seems to be filled with emotion.After a long time, he laughed again and said, "Let's not talk about him—are you going to enter the Gongyuan tomorrow?"
Li Fu bowed slightly, and said: "Yes. I have asked my family to send their luggage to Longmen. I won't be returning to the mansion tonight. I will be working there. Tomorrow morning I will go to the Tribute Academy alone to preside over the political examination. I am here to invite the prince to teach me!"
"It's not a 'training'." Yun nodded and said, "Some people say that there are no upright officials in the Qing Dynasty. I don’t accept all the ice and charcoal gifts that come in?” Li Fu didn’t expect that the Eight Kings knew him so well, and he was moved in his heart, and he hurriedly said with a smile: “That’s true. Sometimes I want to come, but I’m afraid that others will say that I’m hypocritical, my family is scholarly. I’m not rich, but I’m not poor either, and I’m living on a servant’s salary, and I don’t make friends, and I’m just eating and living, so I don’t need that little money.” “How many people like this are there now? "Yun sighed, "I was fortunate enough to see the demeanor of Yu Jackie Chan, Guo, and Lu Longqi in the early years, but now I have nothing to do with it. You don't love money, this is the first-class rare thing, Long Live God has chosen you to host Tribute test, it can be seen that the candle of the Sacred Heart is illuminated, so there is no need for me to ask you more."
Allowing these words to be spoken eloquently, it seems to be admonishing and exhorting, and it is also like good friends cutting candles to encourage each other. Li Fu felt reverence spontaneously in his heart, and he couldn't help thinking, "People say that Prince Lian is the 'Eight Sage King', Sure enough, he has insight and style!" Then he thought of Yongzheng's defense against Yun everywhere, suspicion and jealousy abounded, and he felt a chill in his heart.Thinking about it, he stood up and said, "Baye. If there is no other order from the king, I will leave!"
"Aren't you willing to eat with me?" Yun Ye stood up and stared at Li Fu, and said, "That's fine, that's it! One more thing, these Xiaolians have been admitted for five days, and now they have to take the exam again. It turns out that the food I brought in may not be enough. He Zhuer went to the Ministry of Rites this morning, and heard that some people had run out of food and fainted from hunger. The imperial court chose the wrong examiner at the beginning, and the responsibility for this must be taken by the imperial court. I have issued a sign to the Ministry of Household Affairs, The treasury will supply the silver, and each juzi will provide 18 taels of white rice, a catty of green vegetables, four cents of oil, and three taels of meat per day. They will be counted and stored every day. ——Let’s be exhausted!”
Seeing that Li Fu had resigned, Yun threw away the book in his hand and stood up, saying, "I think this talent has learned well and has a good conscience. Myna, why do you speak official Chinese?" The curtain came in and saw Yun leaning in front of the window. Yun and Yun were talking here, because they asked: "It's only going to be sooner or later? I saw Li Fu go out just now-how is this person?" Grabbing a thread, pulling it carefully, stretching out his hand out of the window and jerking it up, a two-foot-long green silver carp was caught in the study, jumped up and down a few times happily, puffing its cheeks on the blue brick. Underground extension.
"Li Fu is not something in my pool." Yun stared at the rippling blue waves outside the window, and a peach forest on the other side was shaking in the water, like pink clouds burning in the ground.Yun's eyes were also sparkling, and Fang Xu said after a long time, "If the appearance is strong, there must be shortcomings. Have you noticed? There are so many jewels and antiques in this study. Li Wei came in and looked at this one and that one, envious. But he put it down carelessly. Li Fu didn't look sideways, and sat upright from the beginning to the end-it seems that he is not tempted by material desires, but actually uses restraint. What use can I use this kind of false Taoism?" After finishing speaking, he let out a deep sigh, "When it comes to employing people, after all, we are inferior to the fourth child—you can see that by looking at Li Wei, a true beggar, he has been trained to become a great weapon! We used to be caged in our sleeves as a Dear people, how many people can you really count on now? You have to look for it now!" Pointing to the fish in the ground, Yun called a eunuch in, and said: "This fish was cleaned up by the Lord and served with wine. ——Brother, today is a lucky day, I have invited a god for you, it will be of great use! You can be regarded as a big fish!"
Yun's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Who?"
"Guess, there will be a prize for guessing!"
Yun lifted his spirits and asked, "Could it be Longkodo?"Yun exclaimed: "Tiangong Patriarch Tathagata is my Buddha! Long Kedo will come to join us? ——Where? I'll go and see!"
"What are you busy with?" Yun waved his hand, and said with a giggle, "I just took the bait. We slowly rowed the boat to catch drunken fish. You and the starling are not suitable to see each other today. Let me and the old fourteen talk to him first!" Yun Looking at the smiling fourteenth elder brother, he said: "Okay, you have it! You got hung up so quickly? ——how is the matter of drafting girls for the emperor going?"
Yun said with a smile, "Do you think I'm still a [-]-year-old now? I've been through a lot of hardships for a long time! Brother Thirteen has left the matter of draft girls to me, and I've taken care of it - I fooled the fourth child Eyes and ears, you have done great things, and now that you have an eye, you must reward me first!" "OK!" Yun said enthusiastically, "I will give you ten gold-encrusted blunderbuss for my dear brother - Longkodo has come to my house, Wouldn’t it be nice if I didn’t meet you?”
Yun Yin shook her head with a smile, and said: "He just entered Hong Kong, are you so impatient? We can't lose our value, and we can't wake up this drunk fish all of a sudden—I'd better see him first with Old Fourteen. My life should belong to me, he is doomed!" Yun tightened his belt, tossed his braids, and said with a smile, "Ninth brother, let's go, we will meet this important minister of 'Tuogu'!"
The two brothers bypassed the study room, followed the weeping willow along the side of the pond to the north, crossed the rose flower cave, and heard the clear and crisp sound of the pipa coming from the distance in the study room "Waiyunju" of Yun Pingsu's guest: sometimes the mournful sound is as cold as The water drips in the cold spring, and sometimes the strings are like bursting beans.A woman sang along with her pipa in a calm voice:
Qunfang competes for beauty, five colors Lingsu, it is actually jealousy.The qin is still there, and the imperial palace has a new voice... Jinshui has its driving, and the Han Palace has its wood.To be close to each other, to be a man of the world, to be blinded by lewdness and not to realize it!Zhu Xian, Ming Jing Que, Chao Lu, Fang Sheng Xie, Bai Tou Yin, Wounded Parting——Work hard to add food, don't miss concubines!Jinshuitangtang, long-term secrets with the king...Writing about women's long-term secrets to men, it also contains concern and sentimentality.Provenance unknown.
Yun stepped into the study room, clapped at the door and laughed loudly: "What a 'new voice replaces the past'! What a 'reluctant to be obscene but not enlightened'! Lao Long, are you engrossed in listening?"
Longkodo sat in the chair and was thinking about something. The woman sang something that didn't catch his ears. He heard Yun's voice, and he trembled in fright. The smile was bright and cheerful——jumped up quickly, took a step forward and knocked down Qian'er, saying: "Greetings to the two masters!"
"Oh, I don't dare to be it!" Yun hurriedly clasped his hands together, and said with a grin, "The emperor's uncle with a famous brand, Tuo Gu's important minister, sees the emperor and is puzzled by his sword and shoes, let alone us—what kind of famous brand are we, dare to accept uncle's gift?" Get up, sit down!" Yun said, Yun had already sat in the first place carelessly, without even looking at Longko, he waved his hands and told the hatchback: "Go down!"
The kabuki waiting on the hatchback stood up hurriedly, and quietly retreated with their zithers and sheng.The study here does not have as many antiques as in "Yizhixuan". Except for the big chime clock at the north corner of the west gable, there are several desks and chairs around the ring room. Lonely and boring.Seeing that the ninth elder brother was not yin or yang, Longkodo ignored him, and the fourteenth elder brother also returned to his seat with a smile on his face. He was more and more confused, and leaned forward to take his seat. Didn't come down?"
…………
Neither of the two elder brothers answered. Hearing the "click" of the clock ringing in the corner, the fourteenth elder brother sat casually in his clothes, took a sip of tea and then put it down gently. Longkodo asked, "Uncle, do you know who invited you and why?"
"I know." Longkodo already felt that the smell was not right. Hearing Yun's gloomy question, his hands shook slightly, and the tea almost spilled out. However, he was deeply involved in the world, so he calmed down quickly, leaned back and said, "Yes The eunuchs and ministers from Jiu Ye's Mansion came to discuss matters at the Baye's Mansion, and the Eighth Master wanted to ask about the draft girl." "The House of Internal Affairs is now under the management of the Thirteenth Master, and the Eighth Master is too lazy to take care of these trivial matters." After frost, his tone became as dry as dry wood, "It's Jiu Ye and I, borrowing the treasure land of Ba Ye, to shake hands with you, Lao Long!" It took me a long time to come back to my senses, and suddenly, I let out a piercing laugh like an owl, "The Fourteenth Master can really joke! The Tong family has always been close to the Eighth Master, the Ninth Master, the Tenth Master, and the Fourteenth Master. There is no enmity in the past, no resentment in the near future, and there is no feeling of enmity, how come the word "reconciliation"?" After speaking, he stood up and bowed, and said: "If there is nothing else, I will go."
Yun just asked a straight-forward question. Seeing that the treacherous and slippery Longko was about to slip away, and was about to stop him, Yun giggled beside him and said, "Fourteenth brother, it's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Uncle, let me go." Don't stop! Isn't uncle just going to see Tu Lichen for a court case? Tell him to go!"
As soon as Longkodo took a step, he was firmly nailed to the ground by these words, and he couldn't help shivering.
"What deal did uncle and Zhang Tinglu make?" Yun blew on the matchmaker but didn't smoke, and blew it out again with a "thump", "You won three out of the first ten!" Long It was only then that Kodo knew that these elder brothers had great powers, and they somehow got the proof that he and Zhang Tinglu accepted bribes together, and they wanted to use this to drag himself into the water.Thinking about it, Longkodo was sweating heavily.After a long time, he realized that entering the muddy water of Prince Lian was even more extraordinary. He forced himself to calm down, returned to his seat, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Jiuye is right, but Jiuye don't forget, the three first-class Jinshi, one is said by Shiye, one is said by He Zhuer of Baye's mansion, and the other is said by Nian Gengyao. I have learned it on behalf of others. Have a sense of propriety—my lord is considerate, there are some things I can't do!"
After listening to it with a sneer, Yun said after a long while: "Yeah——uncle is so clean? Nian Gengyao's servant doesn't talk about him, the eighth and tenth masters, sons and phoenixes, would do that. Who would believe it? Our servant's confidant If you want to be an official, you need your uncle’s help? What evidence does your uncle have for saying this? Since your uncle has a good reputation, why should you be afraid of Tulichen, a bastard? Take a pig’s head to a mosque, you’ve worshiped the wrong temple!” He jumped up abruptly. , pacing and approaching Longkodo, with great coercion in his hoarse voice: "I also know that you, an important official of 'Tuogu', can't be defeated by just a few bribes. What I want to say today is not About the examination room. I want to ask you, how did Tong Guowei die, who committed the murder, and why did he commit the murder? Huh?" As if there was an unexplained explosion in the clear sky of Jiao Lei, Long Kedo immediately turned pale, sweat drenched through his heavy clothes, he He fell into the chair with a "plop" and murmured: "How did Uncle Liu die? How do I know? He is my uncle, why did I want to kill him?..." Before he finished speaking, he slipped his tongue, and he was terrified. He opened his mouth wide and buried his head deeply.
"Yes, it's your cousin. Why do you want to harm him?" Yun stared at Longkodo tightly, not giving him any room to breathe. "What kind of agreement do you have with your cousin? For example, Tong Guowei Help the eighth master, you Longkoduo, help the fourth master, and seize this beautiful world. No matter who wins or loses, anyway, your Tong family has everything going for it... Well, for another example, you happened to bet on the right thing, Longkoduo, But it was not appropriate for the document to fall into the hands of the 'Sixth Uncle'. In this way, the 'Sixth Uncle' would get 'ill' and have to take medicine... It was that simple - so the 'Sixth Uncle' was as good as five The drum holds the moon in the mountain, life is like running out of oil in the middle of the night - don't look at me like this, weirdo - the rest of the matter will be easy to handle, as long as you find the contract, you can take over this Baidi City with peace of mind. The Tuo Guchen here...
"You didn't expect that the mansion of 'Sixth Uncle' rewarded the third master Hongshi, so you turned to Hongshi again and begged him to give you the house as a gift. Of course he can't give it to you for nothing. You have to 'board', because Hongshi Now it’s time to compete with Hongli for the power of succession. Are you someone who can be used? How many days have I seen you digging three feet in your “Uncle Six’s” house in search of “treasures”, and I’ve been laughing at you. You are so stupid, and you underestimated that 'old coffin' - he is not as good as you in everything, as long as you are loyal to the owner, you will not be able to catch up with him in eight lifetimes! As soon as he got sick, he knew that someone was plotting against him, so he gave this to me ——Look at this piece of rice paper, um, if you want to buy this palm-sized paper alone, it’s not worth a Yongzheng boy—but it has characters on the head and a proof of painting! It’s about worth a minister of the study room, a prince and a grand protector , a bloody head of the Minister of the Guards, the Minister of Military Aircraft, the Chief of the Imperial Forest Army of the Capital, and the Admiral of the Nine Gates!"
Yun Lian sneered and mocked, triumphantly held up the piece of paper, waved it, and handed it to Yun who was in a daze: "Fourteenth brother, you are leading troops outside, and you have killed the Mongols on their backs, but you know that the capital is not moving?" The sword doesn't move the gun, but it's also the shadow of the candle, the axe, the sound box, the sword, the curtain and the lamp! Our uncle can be regarded as the protagonist!"
"Stop talking!" Longkodo raised his head suddenly, his eyes wandered and glanced at the contract, which shone with a dark iron gray light, and after a long time, he lowered his head again: "You...what do you want me to do? "
Yun glanced at the "uncle" who was completely crushed, said nothing, and slapped three times calmly. Two lines of actresses walked in from the side door, all of them with bare temples, light hair and low frowns, playing the kite all the way Blow flute, drum and Yu wave strings, and sing in a manly voice:
A crescent moon reflects the virtual corridor,
The Bihan Red Wall is far away.
Desperately looking forward to the beautiful woman after autumn,
Retweeting the beautiful sentence and sending it to Donglang...
"Let's have fun now, don't ask uncle to do anything." Yun glanced at Yun, "Don't worry, starlings never let people fail—does uncle say, fourteenth brother, the king of the general?"
"Wonderful." Yun clapped his hands and smiled, and said.
Long Kedo's eyes were drunk, looking at these beauties like an idiot, his heart was blank, and he didn't even know what he was thinking.
