Hidden golden branches

Ji Yuxian rode a black panther to the meeting tent, dismounted and threw the horse's reins to Qingfeng who was following behind. He lifted up his clothes and walked into the big tent.

"Master Ji is here." Following the report from the people below, Ji Yuxian walked in and greeted Xue Ruhai, who was walking over, and said, "I have met Master Xue."

When Xue Ruhai saw Ji Yuxian arriving, he stood up first and held his hands in his hands and said: "Master Ji, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down quickly."

Ji Yuxian saw that there were about a dozen desks in the two compartments of the big tent. At this time, almost every table was occupied. In the Wei Dynasty, the right was respected, so the officials were arranged from right to left, and from top to bottom according to official rank. The leader is Meng Heting, the oldest bachelor in the palace and the prime minister of the Crown Prince. Sitting under him are Meng Guogong Zheng Huaiyuan and Youdu Yushi Zhang Renzhong and other adults.

Ji Yuxian greeted them one by one: "I have met the Prime Minister, Mr. Meng Guo, Mr. Ren, and Mr. Ren."

Meng Heting, who is nearly sixty years old, is wearing a crimson official uniform, with thick eyebrows. He has an elegant temperament around him, but he is as solemn and as calm as a mountain.

Before Meng Heting could speak, Meng Guogong Zheng Huaiyuan asked aloud: "Master Ji, why did you bind the Crown Prince of Cheng'en here?" After years of carving, the appearance shows some vicissitudes.

Several other officials also looked at Ji Yuxian with questioning eyes.

"My lords, regardless of the grace of the Holy Spirit and the teachings of his parents, he dared to intercept the woman in the dark and do the evil thing. Fortunately, I met him, otherwise, wouldn't the woman be innocent for this? Save."

Tsk. Yeah.

All the adults suddenly took a breath.

They are all veterans who have been immersed in officialdom for decades. When Ji Yuxian said this, they immediately knew the seriousness of the problem.

Because this is not the capital, there are no brothels, flower houses or theaters where women can entertain themselves.

There are no ordinary people here to tease him.

Everyone who can come here is the official family, and they are all the female family members of high-ranking officials and noble families!

Needless to say, the woman who was almost defiled by Gu Fei must be the daughter of a colleague.

Fortunately, they were only loosened and not let back.

Otherwise it would be really hard to explain.

Furthermore, who is Ji Woo-hyun?

The first humble gentleman in the Wei Dynasty, the number one scholar who was outstanding in both civil and military affairs.

It is a role model for their children to learn from!

Needless to say, they definitely believed what Ji Yuxian said.

"You're talking nonsense! I have a close friendship with her, and we made an appointment to meet her there." Gu Fei slapped the hard yellow rosewood desk and argued loudly.

"Haha, what a sympathizer! You asked a girl to meet at her house late at night, why did you need to bring the three of them out?" Ji Yuxian's jade-like handsome face was dark, and his pair of phoenix eyes as dark as obsidian were radiating. With cold eyes, he asked: "If it is as you said, then why did that girl shout so loudly, and why were the clothes on her body torn by you?"

Ji Yuxian then automatically ignored the resentful look in his eyes when he came in. It turned out that Gu Fei and the other three young men had been untied and were sitting at the desk in the left room. His eyes wanted to eat Ji Yuxian.

At this moment, being criticized unceremoniously by Ji Yuxian, Gu Fei, no matter how cunning he was, was speechless. Yu Chang, who was always proud, also changed his face and hesitated: "This"

Two of the other three people were aides he brought to the government, and they were the same as him, and they were not good people either.

The other one is Xu Pengcheng, the youngest son of Xu Xinyuan, the young minister of Taichang Temple. Xu Xinyuan is about the same age as Ji Yuxian's father, but now his official position is the same as Ji Yuxian's. He is probably also a mediocre official with no ability.

Xu Pengcheng, who is in his early twenties this year, married Sun Yuzhi, the concubine of Pingbohou Sun Qingwu's eldest brother's family. They also had a son and a daughter. However, Xu Pengcheng was spoiled since he was a child. He already had several legitimate children, but all he did was play chickens and dogs, get into fights, and go to the Qinlou Chu Pavilion to drink wine and support the oiran.

Therefore, he and Gu Fei, who also has this hobby, are like-minded, fair-weather friends.

It doesn't matter if there is no official incident involving human life. If someone is injured in a fight, or if someone robs a daughter of a common man and is sued to the government office, he can at least spend some money to settle the matter.

Therefore, they become more and more unscrupulous and behave recklessly. It really caused a headache for the officers of the Bingma Sili, left and right police inspectors.

Thinking that when these two people came to the hunting ground, there were no enchanting girls from the flower house for them to entertain, so they set their sights on Cui Yinyin, the daughter of Mr. Cui who had a crush on Gu Fei. What a coincidence that they succeeded. By chance, they met Ji Yue Qingfeng and Ji Yuxian, who was always upright. It was unlucky for them.

It seems that Miss Cui can be saved.

Because they were here for hunting and there was no morning meeting today, there was not much official business to deal with, so all the officials took a good nap today.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the meeting tent, they saw Gu Fei, the crown prince of Cheng'an, Xu Pengcheng, the youngest son of Anguo Gong Xu Xinyuan, and others being tied up, stuffed in their mouths, and thrown into the tent. middle.

When Jin Wuwei, who was guarding the door, said that it was sent over by the men of Master Ji, the young minister of Dali Temple, the prince of Wu'an Hou, everyone was shocked. When they came to their senses, Xue Ruhai, the Minister of Punishment, hurriedly invited Ji Yuxian over.

Ji Yuxian made up his mind to wait for them to call him, so he took Chen Jia to learn riding and shooting like a normal person.

He just didn't expect that it would be almost noon before someone discovered Gu Fei was tied up and thrown into the meeting tent.

Tsk, when these officials come out to hunt, their work attitudes are also very slack.

In fact, why not himself?

Originally, Ji Yuxian thought that even if he didn't come to him early in the morning, he would at least come to him in the morning to confront him.

Prime Minister Meng looked at the talented Ji Yuxian in front of him. When he stood upright, he was tall and straight, clear and noble.

On the other hand, the two men had sinister faces, their bodies were empty of wine and sex, and their expressions were extremely decadent.

Especially Gu Fei, who is the same heir apparent as Ji Yuxian, one is like the bright moon in the sky, and the other is like the dirty dust underground.

It's just that this case is difficult.

If Gu Fei and Xu Pengcheng were held accountable for insulting the girl, the girl would definitely come forward to testify against him.

This would definitely damage the girl's reputation.

It will be difficult to get married in the future.

Not to mention marrying high, few people are willing to marry even if they are well-matched, so only marrying low will do.

If that girl didn't come forward to testify against him, how could Gu Fei and others be convicted based on Ji Yuxian's testimony alone?

Courtier: Who is Ji Yuxian? He is a role model for young people to learn from! We will definitely believe his words.

Xiao Zi: Haha, the power of role models.
