Chapter 98 Clues of Wang Dashao
Qu Ning was very talented but had limited knowledge, which was a flaw in the ancients' knowledge.
Liu Yu was able to make her lose her composure and admit defeat because the argument was impeccable, but firmly grasped her emotions.
Qu Ning debated Liu Yu with a prejudice, and Liu Yu's argument hit her prejudice. After that, Liu Yu's almost teasing language completely made her lose her composure. Although her composure was not angered by insufficient reason, at the debate meeting, whoever loses the composure first will be considered to be a loss.
The emperor smiled and said, "Although Wen Yan's argument is a biased argument, love for beauty is a commonality among people. It is okay to marry a few beautiful wives and concubines when they are in love. Ning'er, you don't have to be too concerned."
The emperor is a man with many wives and concubines. He also wants to prove that he is also a gentleman.
When Liu Yu heard the old emperor directly call Qu Ning "Ninger", he knew that his relationship was not ordinary. If he refused to let him go, he would suffer losses and he would stop when he saw that Qu Ning looked over. Seeing that Qu Ning looked over with anger, Liu Yu also made a conclusion for Qu Ning in his heart: a feminist.
In ancient times, there were not many people who could truly appeal for women, especially their daughters' homes, and Qu Ning was an alternative.
Today, Yan Pagoda is famous. After all, Liu Yu and Qu Ning are not the protagonists. After some discussion, Qu Ning has to leave first. Liu Yu used the excuse of strengthening the garrison and walking down the tower with Han Sheng.
Han Sheng smiled as he went downstairs, walked out of the tower, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be good at learning based on wrong theories."
"What is a fallacy? I'm talking about the most profound sayings. If I become a heart of iron from today, your two granddaughters will have to stay alone in the empty room." Liu Yu told Han Sheng a joke. He was concerned about another thing, which was related to when he would finish his work, "When will those Jinshi leave?"
Han Sheng said: "The Yan Pagoda has only been famous once in his life. He has to go to the middle of the moon and drink and write poems for a lifetime."
"The moon is in the middle of the sky?" Liu Yu looked at the sky. The moon was already high. The moon was about to set in the west at dusk on the fifth day of the lunar month.
Seeing Liu Yu's face full of worry, Han Sheng said, "Don't worry, the emperor will only stay here for more than an hour before leaving. Just leave the guards behind."
As he was speaking, Qu Ning walked down from the tower and passed by Liu Yu, showing an angry look, and snorted coldly and shook his sleeves and left. Liu Yu knew that the beam was getting deeper and deeper. Just as he was looking at Qu Ning's back, he walked down from the building with a few Jinshi who came out of the building. One of them immediately came over when he saw Liu Yu, with a proud look on his face. It was Wang Hu, the eldest son. Liu Yu remembered that he was also a Jinshi on this list.
"Is your body okay?" Liu Yu looked up and down at Wang Hu and asked.
"No... it's okay." Wang Hu naturally understood that Liu Yu was talking about Xu Caihua's abuse of him. He looked scared on his face, his smile froze, and he turned to be close. "Sir is really capable and can make the woman named Qu speechless. It's really a relief for my man. Students have been disrespectful in the past, so please forgive me."
If someone else says the compliment, Liu Yu may feel a little honor, but when he says it from Young Master Wang, he always feels cautious behind his back. Liu Yu's lust is still standard, so how can he compare to Wang Hu? He can directly rob him.
Liu Yu asked, "You haven't done anything bad recently, have you?"
Wang Hu was stunned and said, "Why did you come here to ask?"
"If you do something to kill, set fire and rob a civilian girl, I'll stay away from you so as not to be burdened by you."
Wang Hu said with a bitter face: "Sir, this is a look down on the students. The students have been taught after the lessons last time. Besides, my father has taken two concubines for the students. The students go home at night and dare not act rashly."
Liu Yu didn't dare to agree that this kid was not meant to be rude. He thought that only Xu Caihua became his wife, his temperament could be completely restrained. In view of the safety of the jade woman in the Chang'an family, Liu Yu also had the idea of being a matchmaker, thinking that he should discuss with his wife when he turned around. Xu Caihua's face and body were not easy to find a family in the family.
"Don't harass Miss Yulan again?"
Wang Hu said with confidence: "No, absolutely not!"
Liu Yu chatted with him for a few more words, roughly asking him where he was going to be. He had a father who was the Minister of Justice, and his relationships were easy to deal with. He had a better way out than those poor people.
"The student means to be a county magistrate or governor, but his father means to keep the students in Chang'an for control. However, the lack of officials in Chang'an City is really not easy to find, and the student really does not want to face the prisoners in the Ministry of Justice for many years. Sir, can you find a job for the students in the Imperial Guard?"
Liu Yu's own errands came inexplicably, and he never thought that he would become the object of others' visit.
Liu Yu asked: "Do you want to follow the literature or the martial arts?"
Wang Hu smiled bitterly and said, "Students are powerless to tie up chickens, and they are too overestimated. The Imperial Army also has many civil servants. Now, you are the commander of the Imperial Army. Can you help or do your best to help the students? The students also want to be taught by your side every day."
"Look back and talk about it."
Liu Yu was just perfunctory. He never thought of using his connections to find an errand for this kid. Liu Yu suddenly thought about finding an insider in the Jinshi. Wang Hu and those Jinshi were on the same list, such as when classmates were walking with each other on weekdays, they should have discovered it.
"Do you have any contact with those Jinshi on weekdays?"
Wang Hu said sadly: "Of course there are contacts, and they often go around eating, drinking and drinking together on weekdays. They also know that their father is the Minister of Justice and want to ask for help through the relationship between students, but the students' own responsibilities have not yet been settled, so they really can't help."
"Was anyone who gave gifts to your father through you, and the amount of gifts is very large, and he doesn't want people to know?"
"Don't you want to say that your father is selling official positions, right?" Wang Hu hurriedly explained, "Don't look at the fact that students are a little misconduct on weekdays, your father is very loyal and will not do anything illegal or illegal. Mr. Don't believe rumors."
Liu Yu leaned forward and explained in a low voice, roughly saying that he wanted to find some Jinshi who were nothaved properly. Wang Hu smiled knowingly and said, "It turns out that sir is trying to find out the bribers!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Wang Hu understood and nodded hurriedly, "If you want to talk about those Jinshi, there are really a few that make Xu Sheng feel strange. Students often see them stuffing some gold, silver and jade artifacts to others at banquets. Each gift is worth more than a thousand taels, and it seems that the money is not enough to be spent. Are they the ones whom they want to investigate?"
Han Sheng was watching the scenery without disturbing Liu Yu. At this time, Liu Yu called Han Sheng over and asked Wang Hu to explain this matter in detail. After all, what happened in the Jinshi was difficult to find through external investigations. In addition, Wang Hu had special status and inappropriate behavior, so he became the targets of those Jinshi's focus and often went to and from the Jinshi banquets, so he discovered some unusual things.
Han Sheng was worried about the errand, but he didn't expect to get important clues from a playboy. Liu Yu gave Wang Hu a few instructions, the point was to keep him confidential. Wang Hu knew that it was the case investigated by the Imperial Guard, and he was too busy to respond.
After Wang Hu left, Liu Yu asked Han Sheng: "This kid is smart, but he is nothave properly. I wonder if he and his father are trustworthy?"
Han Sheng smiled and said, "Didn't you read the description of the Wang family's background in the book of officials?"
The family background of the official list was too complicated. Last time, Liu Yu read the book with purpose, but he really didn't pay attention to Wang Jian's background.
Han Sheng explained: "The Wang family is a descendant of Wang's husband, the founding father of the Dashun Dynasty. Wang's husband passed away early. The sons did not inherit the titles and salaries, but they inherited many land and houses. Their sons' business income was one of the top major households in Chang'an City by their grandson Wang Jian's generation. It is said that Wang Jian was a corrupt official, mainly because he defected to the fourth princess, and there were too many political enemies, and the Wang family's wealth was incredibly imaginative."
Liu Yu finally understood why Wang Jian could take out a box of gold to bribe his son to plead for his son. His feelings were about business first and then politics, not the income from corruption and bribery.
"Although Wang Jian is considered loyal to the emperor, he is extremely mean. People who are good at managing prisons are very particular. Brother Liu will be more careful in the future." Han Sheng reminded him at last.
