Xia Xun was a little surprised, but when he saw his old friend, he didn't smile from the bottom of his heart like before.【】
This is how people interact with each other. When there is a gap in the heart, even without saying a word, each other can feel it, and accordingly, the attitude will naturally reflect it. When all officials are cleansed, the most important disciplines have not arrived.
Without even a reason, Xia Xun realized that there was a problem between them. He didn't know where the problem was, but no matter what, he shouldn't be the one to repair the rift. Whatever position a person stands in, he has to do it.
Develop behavior consistent with this position.
"Yes! He is the official. After so many years, the Duke is still as heroic as ever. It is a joy to congratulate him."
Ji Gang said, turned his head and asked, knowingly: "Is this man a lunatic? How dare you attack the Duke?"
At this time, Yushi Xiao had been beaten awake and he understood who was coming. He roared loudly: "Ji Gang! What a thief! You... you Jin Yiwei... cough cough... how dare you insult me like this... cough
…”
Because his throat was cut by Ji Gang, he shouted out in a hoarse voice, and he kept coughing, making him sound very angry.
Xia Xun said calmly: "If my Lord is not wrong, this is Xiao Yushi from the Metropolitan Procuratorate!"
Ji Gang said with a sudden realization: "Oh..., I remembered that I once heard Chen Buyuan say that it seems that Xiao Yushi is his most capable general. What happened to Xiao Yushi?"
Except for greeting Xia Xun with folded hands when he first appeared, Ji Gang's attitude became more and more casual after that. He had been like this before, but that was because he regarded himself as Xia Xun's disciple and one of his own, so he seemed more casual.
, but now that the mutual disapproval is quietly growing, the attitude is indifferent, which makes Xia Xun even more unhappy.
The implication behind his words is that this Xiao Yushi is Chen Ying's general, and Chen Ying is a staunch supporter of the second prince and the enemy of our faction. Therefore, what should your prince do?
, don't turn your elbows outward. Because Xia Xun was already a little unhappy, he pretended to be ignorant about this sentence. Instead, he said in a deep voice: "He is a general under Chen Ying, and he is also an official of the imperial court! What's wrong with him? Ji
Sir, you should ask your general Yin Qianhu!"
"oh?"
Ji Gang turned his head and glanced at Xia Xun. Seeing that Xia Xun's face had darkened slightly, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened. Although he deliberately wanted to say goodbye to Xia Xun, he didn't want to let Xia Xun suppress his arrogance, but he could accumulate prestige.
Next, when Xia Xun was angry, he couldn't help but feel timid. He turned to Yin Shenghui and shouted angrily: "Little Yinzi! What's going on?"
Yin Shenghui hurriedly moved to Ji Gang and said aggrievedly: "Sir, this is what happened. I went to Beijing on business under orders and met this Xiao Zujie in Zhuozhou. When he was in Zhejiang, he kept looking for humble jobs.
Because of the trouble, Beizhi thought about the important state affairs and ignored it. Who would have thought that he would not let him go, and after meeting Beizhi in Zhuozhou Prefecture, he would order to lock him up.
Your Excellency, he is a fifth-rank official, and a low-ranking official is also a fifth-rank official. Even if an official of the fifth-rank or above commits a crime, he must seek an imperial edict before he can be convicted. He, as an emissary, cannot control me. A low-ranking official is responsible for confidential and important tasks entrusted by your Excellency.
Without any delay, he actually had people tease him by force. There were fewer people around Beizhi. He killed many of them and injured many others. Even Beizhi was arrested and put into Zhuozhou Prefecture Prison.
Fortunately, the general magistrate of Zhuozhou also knew that this was not in line with the court system, so he released the subordinates after the incident. However, he was injured and could not go fast for a while. After wandering all the way, he just returned to the capital and saw a group of brothers.
The humble minister told them his grievances and was about to go to your lord to complain when he saw Yu Shi Xiao coming back. The brothers were furious and took action in order to find justice for the people of Jinyiwei...
"
Xia Xun's heart was moved when he heard this. At that time, he saw Yin Shenghui running away quickly. He had just returned to the capital?
But there is no way to investigate this matter. As a prince, he does not need to worry about this with a small thousand households.
Before Ji Gang could speak, Xia Xun said coldly: "Xiao Yushang is from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Yin Qianhu is from Jinyiwei. You are both people who patrol officials and enforce justice. Even if what you say is true,
It is illegal to know that Xiao Yushi is good at doing things, and he has damaged your men because of it. You should report the whole matter to the superior, and Yuji will go to the emperor to seek justice for you. Why should you follow suit?
, Abuse of lynching? This is the city gate of Nanjing, at the feet of the Emperor, and you two people from the Yamen Gate are fighting like rogues, how unbecoming it is!"
The Metropolitan Procuratorate is equivalent to the Supervision Department, and the Jinyiwei is equivalent to the National Security Bureau. Although their law enforcement focus is different, they are both the most important law enforcement departments of the imperial court. As Xia Xun, Jinyiwei's old boss, reprimanded him like this.
It was also in line with his status. But Jigang couldn't hear it. Now Ji Gang had regarded Jin Yiwei as his forbidden wife. No one could touch this tiger's ass except the emperor.
Xia Xun lectured Yin Shenghui, and Ji Gang sounded like he was being slapped in the face. His face suddenly became as heavy as water. As soon as Xia Xun finished speaking, he raised his hand and gave Yin Shenghui a big slap in the face.
Ji Gang staggered back a few steps. Ji Gang's hand was also very strong. With this slap, half of Yin Shenghui's face became swollen.
Yin Shenghui covered his face and said in shock: "Sir?"
"You bastard, I've given you face, haven't I?"
Ji Gang rushed up and beat and kicked you: "I promoted you to Qianhu. You are really majestic. How dare you bring trouble to me outside! Official of the imperial court, how dare you stop me at the city gate and beat me like this?"
, are you deliberately asking people to pull my pigtails? If I don’t beat you to death today, the Duke of the Kingdom will still think that my royal guard is so domineering that I have lost all authority!"
Ji Gang made a move, but Yin Shenghui dared to resist. He squatted there with his head in his hands and was kicked hard by Ji Gang.
"It's done!"
Xia Xun couldn't go on anymore, and shouted in a deep voice: "Are you trying to teach your children a lesson? Send him to the emperor, and let your majesty punish him!"
Ji Gang punched and kicked for a while, his anger was released, and he felt refreshed. After hearing this, he came up to him with a smile on his face and said: "What the Duke taught me is that the subordinates are also angry for a while, hating that iron cannot be made into steel. This bastard does not live up to his expectations."
, has caused such a big trouble, and I can't defend him anymore. I am following the Duke's instructions, and will send them both to the imperial court now, and ask your Majesty to punish them!"
Xia Xun glanced at him coldly, turned around and left. Ji Gang caught up with him with a smile on his face, bowed to the ground, and said loudly: "I respectfully bid farewell to the Duke!"
At this time, the carriages and horses of the Yang Mansion had already arrived. Ming'er slightly opened the curtains, and all the actions outside, including the expressions and movements of Xia Xun and Ji Gang, were clearly visible. She looked at her husband and walked back, and Ji Gang bowed to her.
After sending it off, Ming'er gently lowered the curtain.
Xia Xun got into the car and ordered: "Let's go!"
As soon as the curtain was opened, Xia Xun let out a long sigh, Ming'er snuggled in and said softly: "What's wrong?"
Xia Xun looked unhappy, shook his head slightly and sighed: "Somehow, I realized that Ji Gang has drifted away from me, and there is already a rift between us, and..."
He frowned and said, "I think he is not only arrogant and domineering now, but also moody. Compared with before, he seems to be a different person."
Ming'er smiled softly, held his arm and said, "My lord, if that's the case, what's wrong with him being estranged from you? What's the use of making friends who cause trouble?"
Xia Xun couldn't help but smile after thinking about it. He gently pinched her pink cheeks and said dotingly: "Xiao Nizi, you are the only one who knows how to coax people!"
Ming'er rested her head on his shoulder and sang a Yuan song "Red Embroidered Shoes" in a thin voice.
Just got on the horse,
They shouted in unison,
Only this,
It is a gift of roots and seedlings.
I was led straight into a deep pit and my heart was anxious.
Disaster comes,
Where to hide?
The wrath of heaven is also
How can I be spared?
The old majesty is gone..."
※※※※※※
As soon as Xia Xun's car drove away, Ji Gang's face darkened.
In the past two years, everyone would put on a flattering smile when they saw him, and everyone was polite to him, regardless of whether they were older than him or younger. When had he ever been reprimanded like this? It was even different now.
He is the confidant of the current emperor and the hero of the future emperor. Looking at the government and the public, who dares to talk to him like this? Even the prince is extremely polite to him! Even if you beat a dog, you still need the master. When Xia Xun reprimanded Yin Shenghui, was he just reprimanding him? Especially
Yes, it is for an opponent who is in the political camp!
Yin Shenghui stood up inexplicably, approached with a bruised nose and face, and said timidly: "Sir..."
Ji Gang glanced at him and snorted coldly: "Pick up the man named Xiao and bring him into the palace to face the saint!"
In the palace, Zhu Di was listening to the official from the Taiyuan Hospital reporting to him how he diagnosed the King of Han: "Your Majesty, the King of Han has a fever and aversion to cold, unresolved sweating, thirst with no desire to drink, thin white coating, and floating pulse. This is
Carelessness in daily life, worry and anxiety will lead to weak righteousness, weak lung defense, and wind evil taking advantage of the deficiency to invade and cause disease..."
Zhu Di was too lazy to listen to what he said about the pathology of the disease and interrupted him: "So, the King of Han is really sick?"
The hospital is an old man with white hair and white beard. He has a kind face and kind eyes. He is a real great master in the Taiyuan Hospital. Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Yes, I carefully cut the pulse of the King of Han and checked the coating of the tongue of the King of Han. It is indeed a hairy disease."
Cure the heat and cold disease!"
After hearing this, Zhu Di suddenly lost his suspicion, and then thought of the four words "anxious and careful", and couldn't help but evoke his fatherly feelings. However, regarding the matter of the crown prince, it was difficult to avoid the eldest son in the patriarchal tradition, and the queen was worried about fratricide.
This made him wary. He had to bear the pain of removing his most beloved son from the crown prince's consideration. Now that his son was seriously ill because of this, Zhu Di felt restless, but he was helpless.
At this moment, Mu En hurriedly walked in and reported urgently: "Your Majesty, there is news from Kunning Palace that the Queen's head disease has recurred and she has been urgently summoned to the hospital for treatment!"
"Ah!" Zhu Di was shocked and said hurriedly: "Quick, go and diagnose the queen!"
"Old minister, I obey the order," Di agreed quickly, hurriedly exited the Jinshen Palace, and followed the young chamberlain from the Kunning Palace.
Zhu Di was restless and had no intention of reviewing the memorial anymore. He got up and wanted to visit the harem. At this moment, Ji Gang led Yin Shenghui and Xiao Zujie to the Jinshen Hall...
