Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 274 The Battle of Pingyan

"Father, Qian Li has successfully arrived in the capital." I opened the door of the study and said to my father who was sitting in front of the desk. "Are you here?" Dad heard the words and raised his head and said, "Well, Hai'er, you will go to court with Dad tomorrow, and this king wants to see what tricks this old fox Yan Yin will play." "Got it, Dad. The child will go back first It's over." After I finished speaking, I turned around and left the study, leaving the palace alone.

In the early morning of the next day, I went to the palace with my father to go to court.In the court hall, Yan Yin was very surprised to see me coming together, but he returned to normal in a blink of an eye, standing there expressionlessly waiting for the emperor's uncle to arrive.After about a stick of incense, the emperor's uncle walked out of the inner hall surrounded by a group of eunuchs, and sat down on the dragon chair.At this time, Xia Gong, the chief eunuch at the side, publicly declared: "There is something to play, and nothing to leave the court." After finishing speaking, he turned and retreated to the side without saying a word.As soon as the words were finished, Yan Yin walked a few steps forward to the center of the hall, bent down and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to announce." The emperor waved his hands and said, "Yan Aiqing, what is there to announce?" Yan Yin said: "Qian Liyu of Daotai of Fengjun County arrived in the capital yesterday, and the minister thought he should be proclaimed to the palace to clarify the matter of Hai Shizi's persecution of the people, so as to seek an explanation for the persecuted man."

"This old fox put such a big hat on my head before the matter was found out." Yan Yin's words made my teeth itch with anger. His words alone can make those who don't know the facts People's impression of me was three points bad, which made me lose the opportunity. "Your Majesty, my brother has something to say." As soon as Yan Yin finished speaking, my father standing beside me couldn't bear it anymore and walked out. After saluting, he said, "This matter has not been investigated yet. Why did Lord Yan slander Haier so much that he made me feel so angry?" Hai'er suffered an injustice?" Because of Daddy's movement, the emperor's uncle sitting on the dragon chair saw my figure, and hurriedly said: "Since Hai'er is also going up today, I don't want to say anything more. Come on People..." Hearing the words, the guards of the palace hurriedly pushed open the palace door and walked in, bowed down and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty." "Go to the post station Xuanfeng County Daotai Qian Li Shangdian," the emperor waved his hand and said. "Yes..." The guard clapped his hands in response, then got up and left the hall.

After half a cup of tea, Qian Li walked in from outside the palace with a flustered expression, bent down and knelt down and said, "My humble minister Qian Li, please see my emperor, long live, long live."Hearing this, Qian Li kowtowed and got up.The emperor's uncle asked, "Qian Li, I'm asking you, has Mr. Hai been to Fengjun City a few days ago?" Qian Li clasped his hands and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. Half a month ago, Mr. Hai passed by Fengjun. I lived in the city for a few days and then left." "Oh..." The emperor's uncle responded lightly, and continued to ask: "Then I will ask you again, did the son of Hai ordered you to sentence Fan Jian, a citizen of Fengjun city, to be executed?" Punishment?" Qian Li shook his head and said, "Return to Your Majesty, no." "You're talking nonsense!" Yan Yin hurriedly shouted. "I'm not talking nonsense." Qian Li said calmly, "Hai Shizi just instructed the official to sentence Fan Jian according to the official law of the dynasty, instead of instructing the official to take Fan Jian's life. The reason why Fan Jian was sentenced to death is completely The minister was sentenced according to the official law, and has no duty to contact Hai Shizi." "You're talking nonsense!" Yan Yin said angrily, "Fan Jian didn't commit any serious crimes at all, so which law did you sentence to be beheaded? "Return to Your Majesty," Qian Li responded, "Relying on his own wealth and power, Fan Jian bullied the people in the city everywhere, harmed the women of a good family, and indirectly caused many people to die. The servant was robbing the girl on the street. Seeing this, the prince rushed forward to stop him, but Fan Jian not only refused to listen to the persuasion, but instead called the servant to teach the prince a lesson. If the prince hadn't been quick and quick, he might have been in trouble. Later, the prince listened to the city The people said that Fan Jian was backed by his grandfather who was a high-ranking official in the capital, and he often persecuted the people in the city. It was only when he was angry that he found Weichen, and instructed the minister to try Fan Jian according to the official law of the dynasty. Under the testimony of many witnesses and evidence , Wei Chen sentenced Fan Jian to beheaded based on the law of officials, and returned justice to the people in the city." "Is this true?" The emperor's uncle said coldly when he heard this.When Qian Li heard this, he bent down on his knees in a panic, and replied: "I will break my word and dare not lie to your majesty." Who is it?" Qian Li didn't say anything when he heard the words, but just knelt there with his head down.

"Uncle Emperor, Fan Jian's grandfather is Lord Yan Yinyan." I, who had been silent all this time, took a few steps forward to the hall, and said salutingly. "What!" Upon hearing this, the emperor's uncle exclaimed in surprise: "Qian Li, is what Hai Shizi said true?" Qian Li nodded slightly, indicating that what I said was true. "Good job Yan Yin!" The emperor's uncle was furious when he heard the words, "I have not disciplined myself strictly, and a villain came to sue first. I come to ask you, is Fan Jian your grandson?" Seeing this, Yan Yin hurriedly Kneeling down, he panicked and said: "Your Majesty, Fan Jian is indeed the grandson of the old minister." "Okay, your grandson is using your name to bully and do evil, and your grandfather not only did not stop him, but indulged him. Yan Yin, You must bear the blame!" The emperor's uncle glared at him viciously and said, "Eunuch Xia, draw up the decree!" Eunuch Xia, who was standing by, hurriedly took a step forward. "Yan Aiqing is old, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to be a cabinet scholar, so I authorize him to retire and go home to take care of his old age. Hai Shizi will eliminate a disaster for Fengjun City, and reward him with a pair of jade Ruyi, a hundred taels of gold, To show appreciation. Fengjun Daotai Qian Li has cared about the people for many years, and he has taken the affairs of the people as his own responsibility. He has made great contributions. He is specially named a cabinet bachelor, and he is given an official residence with a hundred taels of silver." After finishing speaking, he angrily left Standing up on the dragon chair, he turned and left the hall.

"Thank you, Lord Long En," Qian Li and I thanked each other after hearing the words.Yan Yin fell to the ground weakly because of the loss of Wusha.Daddy looked at the frustrated Yan Yin happily, with joy on his face.

After the court was over, I was not in a hurry to leave, but went to the Imperial Study Room with my father.The emperor's uncle who was sitting in the imperial study, saw my father and me coming, and hurriedly turned everyone away.Looking at me with joy on his face, he said: "Hai'er, your move is really amazing. I've thought about it for a long time, Yan Yin, an old fox, but it's a pity that I can't do it. This time it's good, a grandson let him go back I'll see how arrogant he will be in the future." "But Uncle Emperor, will doing so make Yan Yin suspicious and ruin our plan." I asked worriedly. "Probably not." Dad shook his head and said, "What your uncle hates the most is people who bully the people with their own name. Although this dismissal is a bit serious, it is also reasonable. Who made his grandson not long-sighted? He bullied me, Haier. I blame him as a grandfather who didn’t train his grandson well. He dared to provoke anyone. Killing him would be considered cheap. If you let him fall into the hands of the king Haier, who dares to bully me, is looking for death!" After listening to this speech, I suddenly found that my father, who was always gentle and gentle, had such a violent side, and I was stunned.The emperor's uncle smiled and said: "Hao Zhi, you have frightened Hai'er. After so many years, why are you still so hot-tempered? I thought you would have changed a long time ago." She smiled sheepishly.The emperor's uncle asked eagerly: "By the way, Hai'er, what should I do next? Should I take advantage of the victory and pursue and wipe out Yan's party in one fell swoop? Or hold back and wait for the aftermath?" "In Hai'er's opinion, it is better to hold back Immediately, I expressed my thoughts, "It is too early to eradicate Yan's party at this time. Not to mention anything else, Xiaojie now knows nothing about the affairs of the court, and it is difficult to be alone Now we still have to use the crown prince to take the lead to eliminate some hidden dangers for Xiaojie. After Xiaojie has the ability to be on his own, it will not be too late to strip brother Ji of the title of prince. Besides, if we take advantage of the victory to pursue now, it is inevitable that Yan I am afraid that this is not the result that the emperor wants." "It is." The emperor nodded and said, "I have been waiting for so many years, so there is no need to rush." ​​"Hmm..." I replied softly, "However, Uncle Emperor should also arrange some things for Xiaojie at the right time, so that he can get in touch with the court more. It's not good to keep him hiding behind us. In the future, the country will depend on him for development." , don’t accumulate more experience now, it won’t be too late to learn when he ascends the throne in the future. Anyway, my cousins ​​are more or less entering the court to participate in politics, so it doesn’t matter if there is one more him. Anyway, Xiaojie is almost full. It's time to go to the court to practice." The emperor's uncle said with a smile, "Since Hai'er said so, in a few days, I will announce that Jie'er will go to the court with her to experience and practice."

At the same time, Fan Changming and his wife, who were anxiously waiting for news in the mansion, knew that something was wrong when they saw Yan Yin's pale face.After careful questioning, he found out that not only did Yan Yin fail to avenge his beloved son, but instead was sent home by the emperor, Fan Jian's mother Yan Zhilan finally couldn't help crying.Yan Yin patted his daughter on the back, secretly deciding that one day he would use Situ Hai's death to avenge his grandson.

After leaving the palace, I bid farewell to my parents, took Ye'er, Han'er, Ye'er, Xiaoyou and others out of the palace, and prepared to go back to Qingsong Valley.I was supposed to go back earlier, but it was delayed by Yan Yin's disturbance. Now that the matter is over, I should go back to see how the big project of Qingsong Valley expansion is going.After a quarter of an hour's flight, we returned to the Qingsong Valley, which has already shown a little spring.As soon as I landed from the sky, I saw our big engineer coming out of the cave, "You guys are back, come and visit the fruits of my labor." After speaking, he grabbed my hand and walked into the cave.Not to mention, going in and taking a look like this really made me admire him.The cave is still the same as before, but the area inside has increased several times. There were only three stone chambers in the past, but now it has expanded to six.The layout of each stone room is the same as the original one, with the same stone couch and a few futons. The only difference is that the walls of these stone rooms built later are inlaid with several fist-sized luminous pearls for illumination.I looked at the triumphant Wang Xue, gave a thumbs up, and praised: "Yes, it's perfect, it's really hard work for you." The corners of Wang Xue's mouth turned up when he heard this, and he said with a sinister smile: "Since you know that I have worked hard, shouldn't you reward me? What about it?" "What reward do you want?" I asked casually.Wang Xue stretched out his finger and pointed to his own cheek, and said: "A kiss, it's not too much." "Of course not too much." I smiled, turned around and left the stone room, and said to Sanxiao who just came in from the outside: "Uncle Xue Shouldn't you reward him for working so hard for us?" I pointed my finger at my cheek while talking.The clever Han'er immediately understood what I meant, and ran to Wang Xue's body in a few steps, tugging at the hem of his clothes and insisting on kissing him.Seeing this, Ye'er and Chun'er also ran over, clamoring to give him a kiss as a reward.Wang Xue couldn't laugh or cry because of these three brats, so he had no choice but to surrender, squatting down and letting them leave three big saliva marks on his cheeks.But he didn't forget me as the instigator. When he squatted down, he gave me a hard look, as if he was accusing me of cheating.However, I don't care at all, let him stare if I love to stare, anyway, I won't lose a piece of meat, it doesn't matter.

After living in Qingsong Valley for a while, Jingyuan said goodbye to me, saying that he was afraid that Master Zhiming would be worried and wanted to go back to Wuyin Temple after being away for so long.Since Jingyuan said so, I couldn't stay any longer, so I asked Xiaoyou to give him a ride.Not long after Jingyuan left, Wang Xue also said that the underworld was busy and went back.With the two of them leaving, Qingsong Valley returned to its former tranquility.However, due to the addition of Chun'er, Qingsong Valley has added a little childishness.Watching the three little rascals playing in the valley, I seem to have returned to the childhood full of laughter.
