Chapter 515

There are many gossips in the capital.

Especially recently, there has been a lot of gossip in the capital.

The most eye-catching and most serious gossip is the fraudulent case brought out by the big exam.

Thinking about that day, Cui Youbo pointed directly at Wei Wang's in-law Yuan Jiliang with a book, and personally opened the prelude to the cheating case in the exam.

After Cui Youbo finished lighting the fire, he obediently stepped aside, watching the people on both sides of the prince and the king of Wei kept adding fuel and firewood to it, making the big exam case more and more serious.

This malpractice case has also become the main battleground between the Crown Prince and the King of Wei. Both sides have dispatched their own censors, one to participate in the dereliction of duty of a certain official, and the other to impeach a certain courtier for lawlessness. Fly into Tai Chi Palace.

After seven or eight days of turmoil, both sides have gains and losses.

After careful study, the prince had the upper hand.

There is no way, it's not that Wei Wang's subordinates can't do it, but that compared with the prince, Wei Wang is slightly inferior in status.Who let the prince occupy the head of the family, and have an absolute advantage in patriarchal clan and orthodoxy.

Therefore, as soon as the prince reveals his identity, someone will take the initiative to agree with him.

There are many generals in the camp, and the loss of a few will not affect the overall situation, let alone shake the foundation.

Moreover, even some neutral courtiers subconsciously want to favor the prince.

Still the same sentence, the prince symbolizes orthodoxy, as long as people who have been brought up by traditional education, as long as the prince has not done any evil things, everyone's hearts will unknowingly be biased towards the prince.

In addition, there is the most important point. Under the reminder of Li Rong and others, the prince has been extremely strict with his subordinates, family members, and in-laws in the past two years. Calling him into the Eastern Palace to give a lecture shows how strict the prince is to the people around him.

Because of the strict restraint of the crown prince, the people below him have somewhat restrained themselves. In addition, the official atmosphere of the Zhenguan Dynasty was very upright.Therefore, the people on the prince's side can still stand the test.

With the addition of many factors, the prince's advantage is very obvious.

However, the King of Wei was not a fool. After losing several generals, he discussed repeatedly with his staff and set off a new round of impeachment.

When Wei Wang's men made a move, the prince's men attacked head-on, so the melee escalated again.

In the end, everyone had forgotten about the fraud itself, and was instead dazzled by the vicious struggle between the two parties.

For a time, the court was very lively, and it also provided a lot of gossip to the officials. The neutral people outside the two parties, as well as the soy sauce party who were watching, brought snacks and side dishes one after another. Happy gossip.

Men gossip happily, and women also have their own gossip.

Speaking of which, Cui Youbo, the second most popular gossip in Beijing recently, is also related to Cui Youbo. He first went to Luoyang to invite three celebrities to come back as teachers, which attracted the attention of dignitaries and aristocratic families in Beijing. Grab everyone's attention.

Especially in the past two days, there is always a weird 'carriage' passing by on Suzaku Street, which always attracts a group of people to watch and follow.

What is even more confusing is that this carriage came out for some important event, but to send invitations to powerful families who are acquainted with or have a good relationship with the Cui family.

The people who receive the invitations are proud first, it is a symbol of status, and under the gaze of almost all the people in the capital, the princess of Xiangcheng sent invitations to him so solemnly, which in itself symbolizes the importance he values ​​him .

Especially when friends of three or five get together, the lady who received the invitation deliberately asked, "Have you received the invitation from Princess Xiangcheng?"

When seeing everyone doubting and shaking their heads, the noble lady will be very proud, but then she will look embarrassed and say: "Oh, the princess is too polite to order someone to take a special car to see you off like this." invitations.

By the way, have you seen that wooden cart?I heard that it was built by Mingshi Zhou according to the principle of wooden horses and carts. It doesn't need horses or oxen to drag it. It only needs a few people to step on the mechanism, and the wooden cart can move by itself. "

This kind of showing off is really showing off. The more the lady talked, the happier she was, and she continued to show off: "Also, I heard that this wooden car is a school bus specially prepared by the princess for Jiwei College. Oh, by the way, do you know what it is called? Is the school bus..."

Such conversations were staged in many families in Beijing.

It is true that people who show off are very happy, but people who are "popularized" feel a little uncomfortable. They feel like a cat scratching their hearts, while secretly complaining why they don't make friends with the princess of Xiangcheng on weekdays, while also vaguely expecting that their own man The grade is not low, according to the generous style of the princess's lady, she should not miss her own family, right? !

Therefore, those noble ladies who did not receive the invitations were not in a hurry to go out, and stayed at home all day, listening to the movement outside.

As soon as a servant girl came to communicate, they would immediately sit up and ask.

Those who received it imitated the appearance of 'senior' to show off to sisters-in-law and girlfriends, and those who did not receive it secretly sighed, and those who were impatient even secretly ordered someone to go to Cui's house to find out, and silently reminded Cui's family whether they should also send it to their own family. Zhang Invitation, her family also has children who are going to school, okay? !
Later, what everyone paid attention to was not the invitation itself, but the symbolic meaning of being able to receive the invitation.

It seems that anyone who has not received the invitation from Xiangcheng Princess is not high enough, not noble enough.

And this effect is exactly what Xiao Nan wanted, otherwise she wouldn't have sent only ten invitations every day.

Hunger marketing or something was also very effective in ancient times.

Therefore, all the ladies were attracted by the invitation, and almost no one paid attention to another new thing.

"What? Duke Rong beat Mr. Pei's family?"

Just as Xiao Nan finished writing today's invitation, Yuzan hurried over to report back. After listening to it, she couldn't help asking in astonishment: "Which Pei family? Why did Li Rong beat him?"

She has been busy with college affairs during this time, and she hasn't seen Li Rong for a long time, and she was a little surprised to hear his news, but it was still such a disharmonious news.

"Yes, he is the husband of Xinye County Lord,"

Yuhan also felt that the news was a little scary, she stuttered, and then spoke smoothly.

The head of Xinye County?

Who is it?

When Xiao Nan heard this strange title, he was taken aback for a while, and tried to search in the memory bank of his brain. It took him a long time to realize that the Xinye County Lord is Li Yuanji's daughter.

Thinking of this, some unfamiliar memories began to come back, and the gossip I heard occasionally in my previous life became more and more clear: Xinye County Lord, the sixth daughter of Chao Wang, married into the Pei family, and the Pei family bullied her that she had no support from her natal family. Embarrassed by her identity, she used childlessness as an excuse to take a concubine with great fanfare. In the end, the county lord went there at the age of 39, saying that she died of illness. Only the person concerned knew how he went.

Yuzan was still talking: "I heard that Rong Guogong happened to pass by Zhuque Street that day, and suddenly heard the quarrel between Xinye County Lord and Pei Langjun. , Rong Guogong became angry on the spot, jumped into the carriage, kicked the door, picked Pei Langjun up with one hand, and threw him out of the carriage..."

"Li Rong, Li Rong is so brave?!"

It's too tough, this fellow has a high force value and can't show off like this, after all, the Pei family is not an unknown person, he is also the Jingzhao Pei family, a dignified family.

Xiao Nan's eyes widened unconsciously, staring at Yuhan in a daze.

Yuzan also felt that this Rong Guogong was 'powerful', she twitched the corners of her mouth unnaturally, and then said: "Rong Guogong's kung fu is very good, he directly beat Pei Langjun to the ground, and was finally beaten by Pei Langjun. The people at home carried it back, the imperial doctor checked the pulse and prescribed medicine, and Pei Langjun has not woken up, until now, it seems, it seems that he has not woken up yet."

Xiao Nan was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly: "Then what did the Pei family say? Did you sue him?" This guy seems to have caused trouble.

The identity of the head of Xinye County is embarrassing. Although she is a daughter of the clan, she is not welcomed by the clan and Taiji Palace.

As for the Pei family, with the name of an aristocratic family, they have quite a few contacts in the capital.

Li Rong beat someone Pei violently in public, or to support Xinye County Lord, this, if this happened to the sage, the sage might not be happy.

Hearing Xiao Nan's worry, Cui Youbo said with a smile: "Lady, are you really an ignorant and reckless man when you think Brother Zheng Ze? Hehe, he has already planned his way out before beating someone. Just after beating him down, After he sent Xinye County Lord home, he went directly to the palace to plead guilty."

Xiao Nan hurriedly asked: "Then, what did the saint say? Is he to blame?"

Cui Youbo picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said slowly, "Of course not."

Speaking of this, Cui Youbo showed admiration on his face, "Brother Zhengzheng said to the sage, Xinye County's surname is Li, and she comes from the most noble family in the world. She is the only one who looks down on others, and no one else looks down on Li's daughter. And he Li Rong is the son of the Li clan, when someone bullies his fellow sisters, he doesn't care about anything, he just wants to vent his anger for the clan..."

What Li Rong meant was very clear. Li Yuanji had done something wrong, and his own family members punished him. His daughters were not welcomed by the clan, but they were always surnamed Li.

Moreover, Li Rong also vaguely pointed out that the sage not only gave Li Ling the title of county magistrate, but also took care of her marriage, which meant that the affairs of the king of Chao had passed.And the Pei family dared to humiliate the noble daughter of the clan in the street. He was not hitting the face of Xinye County Lord, but the face of the entire Li clan.

While speaking, Cui Youbo sighed in his heart, Li Rong is indeed a smart man, he knew that the emperor didn't like Li Yuanji, so he deliberately avoided the fact that Xinye County Lord is Li Yuanji's daughter, and directly attributed the focus to the face of the Li clan superior.

Sure enough, let him say this, the sage did have an opinion on the Pei family: as Li Rong said, how bad Xinye County Lord is, that is also the matter of their Li family. He, the head of the family, has not yet spoken. Let's humiliate them first, isn't this bullying them and nobody in the Li family.

Besides, more than 20 years have passed since the incident of Xuanwumen. In order to show his generosity, the sage even adopted the fourteen sons from the Yang family to Li Yuanji so that his younger brother would have successors.

In the end, the Pei family still dared to insult Xinye County Lord on Suzaku Street. Isn't this against the saint.

Therefore, when the Patriarch of the Pei family ran into the palace the next day and cried to the emperor, instead of being able to vent his anger on his son, the saint angrily reprimanded him, saying that the Pei family treated the Xinye county head poorly, and that someone Pei really deserved to be beaten, and the emperor was still excited He said that if Mrs. Pei dared to be disrespectful to the county magistrate again, the old man would roll up his sleeves and whip someone himself next time.

As for Li Rong, instead of being reprimanded for committing the crime in public, he was praised by the sage as "chivalrous and courageous" and "love family relatives"...
