Liu Yujue was startled, then he cupped his hands and said: "Brother Ji..."
"Bold! Are the rules and regulations of the imperial court just for show? When you meet the superior, you will neither retreat nor dismount to pay respects. What kind of rules are these?"
Ji Younan, who had just become the governor of Jinyinan Town, puffed out her chest and belly and shouted loudly.【】
Liu Yujue endured his anger and got off his horse. Chen Dong and Ye An followed him down.
, as if he had never seen him before, and ignored him at all.
"Younan, you are so presumptuous, Yujue is my brother, what are the rules? Get out of the way!"
Ji Gang pretended not to see Liu Yujue when he dismounted, but turned around and yelled at Ji Younan, who quickly said yes.
Liu Yujue got off his horse, cupped his fists and said, "Liu Yujue, a member of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, has met Mr. Ji!"
"Hey, you said, get up, get up, get up, why are you so outspoken?"
Ji Gang said, but his buttocks were firmly sitting on the saddle without moving. When Liu Yujue bowed and walked, he said: "Here, help me to dismount!"
Ji Younan was the first to jump off the horse and help Ji Gang. Another Baihu rushed forward, put his fist on the ground with one hand, and asked Ji Gang to step on his back, and slowly got off the horse. Ji Gang slowly walked towards Liu Yujue,
He said with a smile: "A few days ago, I was slapped by the emperor. The injury on my butt has not healed yet. It was too slow to come down. My dear brother, why are you so unobtrusive?"
His car was littered with scraps, and Liu Yujue wore the official uniform of an ordinary worker from the Ministry of Industry. He smiled and said, "Where are you going, dear brother?"
Liu Yujue cupped her hands and followed the rules of the lower official meticulously, and replied: "The Taoyuan Temple in Dongcheng has been in disrepair for a long time. Mr. Xue is the great benefactor of the temple. Please help the lower official and send some scraps to repair it."
"Oh I got it!"
As he spoke, Ji Gang pulled Liu Yujue and took him to the side of the road. He looked him up and down again, suppressed his smile and sighed: "Oh! Dear brother, you were implicated because of Yang Xu, and now you have been demoted to
Ministry of Industry, I have been in charge of a small job, how are you doing now?"
Liu Yujue smiled lightly and replied: "Thank you for your question, Mr. Ji. This official from the Ministry of Industry is not a young man. He is nothing in the capital. If you put it in the local government, he is an official on an equal footing with the prefect. I am very satisfied."
. It can be said that I have been implicated by the Duke of Fu, but that is not the case. The future of Xiaguan is all thanks to the gift of Duke Fu. I can do something for the Duke, and I am very happy!"
Ji Gang's face darkened, his expression became cold, and he said in a cold voice: "Yujue, we are fellow Shandong fellows, and we are classmates. After becoming an official, we worked in the same yamen. I have been thinking about it, what do I think?
I can’t even figure it out. The two of us should advance and retreat together, just like one person. You! Why are you going against me? Tell me! Why?”
Liu Yujue raised his head and glanced at him, and said in surprise: "Why did Mr. Ji say this?"
Ji Gang became angry and said angrily: "Yu Jue, I treat you sincerely, can you talk to me properly? I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out!"
Liu Yujue said calmly: "If you say I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out either. The Duke treats you badly, why do you deliberately deal with him?"
Ji Gang said proudly: "I am the emperor's guard, specializing in detecting the illegal activities of hundreds of officials. Is he indeed guilty? You want me to abandon private interests for public affairs, betray the emperor's trust, and be complicit with him?"
Liu Yujue's eyes were fixed on his face, and she said solemnly: "Don't tell me, when you started sending people to keep an eye on the Duke, you already knew that he would have something to catch!"
Ji Gang avoided his eyes for a moment and said in a slower tone: "Yujue, he and I have different ways of doing things!"
Liu Yujue sneered: "What way? We are both ministers of the Ming Dynasty, we are both ministers of the Ming Dynasty, we are both in the same line of princes, how can we have different ways?"
Ji Gang became furious when he questioned him and said bitterly: "Because he blocked my way!"
"oh?"
Ji Gang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Don't be too naive, Yujue, let me tell you, there are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends in this world. Enemies can also be friends when they are helpful to you. When he becomes your obstacle, a friend is also an enemy! Yang Xu has blocked my way now, understand?
But you are different. We are fellow villagers, classmates, and have been colleagues for so long. I value you very much. Now as long as you say, from now on, you are willing to follow my footsteps and advance and retreat with me, I want to How about I transfer you back to Jinyiwei and be the governor of South Town? I'll leave the role of governor of North Town to you, which I also hold concurrently."
Liu Yujue smiled, shook his head and said: "I already understand your way. As long as it is beneficial to you, no one can use it. When anyone stands in front of you and prevents you from grabbing greater power and climbing to a higher status, Then he will immediately become your enemy! You are the emperor's dog, and you want everyone else to become your dog. I'm sorry, you and I have different opinions!"
The car wearing the scraps continued to move forward. Xue Lu, Liu Yujue and their group had already gone far away. Ji Gang stood on the side of the road with a pale face, watching their retreating figures without saying a word for a long time.
Ji Younan came over and said coquettishly: "Sir, that man named Liu doesn't know how to praise, so why should you care? He is willing to be Yang Xu's dog, let's..."
When Ji Gang heard the word "dog", his heart exploded. He picked up the whip and hit Ji Younan on the shoulder with a "snap". The pain made Ji Younan gasp, quickly stepped back, and bowed repeatedly: "I know my humble position." Sin, humble duty and knowing sin..."
"Hel me on the horse!"
Ji Gang asked someone to support him and sat on the saddle angrily. Just as he was about to shake the reins and ride away, he suddenly reined in the horse. He thought for a moment with a gloomy look on his face and said to himself: "Xue Lu is a big benefactor of a Taoist temple? He That virtue is that of a person who respects Buddhism and believes in Taoism?"
Ji Gang rolled his eyes and pointed at Ji Younan with his riding crop. Ji Younan shrank his neck in fear. Ji Gang said: "They are going to the Taoyuan Temple in the east of the city. Come and have a look. Let me find out. They went to repair the Taoist temple. What on earth does it mean!”
As soon as Ji Younan heard that there was an errand for him, he immediately got angry and said: "I obey my orders! I just go!"
As he spoke, he drove his horses, led a few of his men, and tiptoed down the row of vehicles in the distance...
※※※※※
Taoyuan Temple has a very poetic name, but when you actually go to this Taoist temple, you can't help but be disappointed. This Taoist temple is too dilapidated, with half-collapsed walls and peeling skin. Even the statue of Bixia Yuanjun enshrined inside is gray and lost. There are several rows of green vegetables planted in the open space on both sides of the front hall. How could such a place attract pilgrims?
The foremen directed the craftsmen to repair everywhere, and Xue Lu kept reminding them: "Everyone, be careful, don't step on the vegetable field. Over there, there are clothes hanging to dry, don't knock them down." Already..."
In a relatively intact room, the abbot Qingxuanzi was persuading a young and beautiful Taoist nun in front of him in a soft voice. Both of them were wearing cyan Taoist uniforms, which had already turned white and were very shabby.
She looks like a monk, but more like a kind-hearted old country lady and a young girl who has not left the court.
However, although Taoist Priest Qingxuanzi does not have the temperament of a monk at all, she is actually the young Taoist nun. Although her clothes are shabby, she does not hide her beauty, her skin is like moist jade, her lips are red and her teeth are white, her eyes are pure, her temperament is pure, and she does not contain the slightest trace of human smoke.
, she really looks like a beautiful and refined fairy girl.
"Yu Chun, you are a daughter of a young family, how can you spend your whole life in this Taoist temple? Alas! I see that General Xue really likes you. If you really follow him, won't you have someone for the rest of your life?
Do you rely on it?"
This girl Yuchun's surname is Dong. Dong Yuchun is actually Cao Yusi, the top red girl in "Huancai Pavilion" in Huzhou Prefecture. Her real name is Dong Yuchun. Because she was in the land of fireworks, she was ashamed to use her ancestor's surname and
After her parents gave her the name, she took the radical of each name and became Cao Yusi. Now that she escaped from Huzhou, she changed her real name back to her real name. In the temple, her Taoist nickname also became Yu Junzi.
Miss Dong is a native of Huzhou and has never been anywhere. Now there is no place for her in Huzhou. She can't think of a place to go. The one she has heard about the most is naturally Jinling, and there are many places here.
Duke Guofu and Yu Qingtian were high-ranking officials whom she hated deeply. They were two rare good people who made her feel a little warm, so Miss Dong subconsciously came to Jinling.
Only when she got here did she realize that it turned out that this place was stricter than the local area. A black family like her wanted a place to stay... there were many! Yes, there were many! The more prosperous the place, the more ways to accommodate the three religions and nine streams. The problem
There is no right path among those paths. As a young and beautiful girl, it’s not clear what career she needs to pursue if she wants to survive here.
But now that Miss Dong has escaped from the pit of fire, she is not willing to hold a lowly career anymore. These days in Taoyuan Temple, wearing skirts, jingchai, green vegetables and tofu, she is quite happy. Because that day Xue Lu came back from Shandong Prefecture and passed by here.
It was raining heavily everywhere, so I went to the Taoist temple to take shelter from the rain. I happened to see her. I was fascinated by this, and often made excuses to come. His thoughts were clear to several old nuns in the Taoist temple. Dong Yu
How could Chun not understand?
It's just that she has a heart disease that has been formed since childhood, and she has an instinctive resistance and aversion to being an official. Xue Lu is not good at coaxing women. He has been secretly in love with her for so long. When he saw her, he blushed and was speechless.
, how can he win the heart of a girl when he has actually spoken less than three sentences to her?
Miss Dong bit her thin lips, shook her head slightly, but still refused to agree. The old viewer who was determined to promote their good deeds couldn't help but sigh.
Xue Lu refused to tell people directly why he came to practice meditation, but he was not one to hide anything. He had two generals, Heng Ha, act as loudspeakers for him. Soon all the foremen, stewards, and craftsmen knew that they wanted to
To fulfill Xue Lu, although he worked harder, ridicule was inevitable. Ji Younan sent someone to change into casual clothes, took advantage of the hustle and bustle inside to sneak in and inquire, and after getting the real information, he immediately rushed back to report to Ji Gang.
After hearing this, Ji Gang suddenly remembered that when Yang Xu was tried, Xue Lu was also one of the witnesses. Ji Younan himself had never seen it before, but he even exaggerated and praised the beautiful Taoist nun. Ji Gang couldn't help but think about it.
Give Xue Lu some color, and secondly, his habit of collecting beautiful women came back.
Ji Gang held his chin and muttered for a while, stood up and pointed at Ji Younan, and said domineeringly: "Go! Go to Taoyuan Temple and say something, and in front of Xue Lu and Liu Yujue, instruct the temple owner to take a small sedan tomorrow and take the person.
Bring it back to me! Yu Junzi, I want it!"
