Pink double is still going on, please guarantee at the beginning of the month!
………………………….
"She didn't come again?"
Old Mrs. Chen asked.
The old servant nodded.
"Has the punishment for desertion been determined?" Old Mrs. Chen asked again.
The old servant nodded.
"This has been decided a long time ago, and both parties have no objections to this," he said.
What is objectionable is what happened after killing the deserter.
Old Mrs. Chen pondered for a moment.
"Did she find someone else?" he asked.
This time the old servant shook his head.
"No." He said, then paused, looking a little hesitant, "I went to Mr. Jiangzhou's academy."
Zhang Chun?
Yes, they are both from Jiangzhou. Is it possible that they have known each other for a long time?
If Zhang Chun comes forward...
But how could that stubborn Taoist man speak up for a deserter who was clearly guilty?
"...But people say that her fourth brother is studying in the academy, the brother and sister talked, and the brother even gave the sister some money..." the old servant continued.
This sentence made Mr. Chen nod.
That's right, so it's simply impossible.
She has no one to turn to, or to be precise, no one to turn to who can help.
This lady was well-known in the capital, but because of the harsh conditions for treatment and the merciless rejection, she lost the opportunity to make friends with the rich and powerful in the capital. Therefore, she never had any amazing results that shocked the people of the capital. For the capital that likes the new and dislikes the old,
To put it bluntly, Cheng Jiaoniang is not as famous as she was six months ago. If she tries to make friends through her medical skills at this moment, the effect will be completely useless.
This smart woman must know this herself.
"Actually, Mrs. Cheng has shown her utmost kindness to those seven people. This matter will never involve her and will not have any impact. Mrs. Cheng must have let it go," the old servant said.
Old Mrs. Chen shook his head.
"She won't," he said.
In addition to being smart, she is also a very proud person.
Proud people never give up.
"What news are you talking about in the city?" He asked suddenly as he thought of something, "That someone fell to death or something?"
"Oh, a man fell to his death while running on the street in front of Shenxianju." said the old servant.
There are many new things happening in the capital every day. Fortunately, Mr. Chen only ordered him to pay attention to the people and shops related to Mrs. Cheng.
Although it is rare for someone to fall to death in the street, it is not something that has never happened before. If it did not happen to happen outside the Immortal Residence, the old servant would not pay any attention to it.
I said something to Mr. Chen at that time, but he himself forgot about it.
Old Mrs. Chen pondered for a moment.
Could this man who fell to death be related to this woman?
"He was a city gatekeeper who loved gambling and was a bridegroom. He was so frightened by his father-in-law that he stumbled and died." The old servant continued.
After hearing this, Old Mrs. Chen was relieved and shook his head mockingly.
I have some very deep prejudices. Is it possible that everyone in the capital will think of that woman?
This woman's murderous temperament impressed him too deeply.
He turned his head and looked at the screen in the room. Although the dots marked on it were old, they were still conspicuous.
"Actually, if those deserters don't die, it won't have any impact on the master and the others, right?" the old servant said in a low voice.
Old Mrs. Chen nodded.
"It has no impact, but it is a distraction." He said, taking a deep breath, "At this time, they can't bear to pay attention to these... some trivial things, there is nothing they can do about it, this is how people are, they will always be abandoned.
Protect the commander, so everyone strives to be a commander, not a pawn."
The old servant nodded and said no more.
"It's not easy to live in the capital, and it's hard to go as you wish in life." Mr. Chen said, standing up, "Young people, it's not a bad thing to get some training."
Seeing Old Mrs. Chen stepping out, the old servant hurriedly followed.
"Master has entered the palace?" Old Mrs. Chen asked.
The old servant nodded.
"It's been three days, it's time to decide the winner." Old Mrs. Chen said, standing on the porch looking at the sky.
There are heavy clouds today, and it looks like an autumn rain is coming.
"Let's go to Qie Ting Temple for a walk," Old Master Chen said, "burn incense sticks and listen to Zen."
This time, no matter whether we win or lose, the outcome will not be easy.
Although they respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them, people are still willing to find some sustenance when encountering problems.
The old servant responded and was busy arranging the carriage and horses.
At the same time, thick smoke billowed from the Empress Hall of the Puxiu Temple, which was the most convenient place to use incense in the city.
"Dad, there's no need to put on so much incense, right?"
Coughing, Mrs. Dong stretched out her hand to disperse the smoke.
Mr. Dong had already inserted the thick incense bundle into the incense burner in front of the temple and bowed devoutly.
"What are you doing! Why don't you come and kowtow!" he shouted.
Mrs. Dong came over reluctantly, and Master Dong drove the wet nurses and their two grandsons to come and bow down. How could the children understand this? They were just playing with it. They kowtowed and laughed happily, but Master Dong was cruel to her.
Reprimanded harshly.
"Dad, what do children know? Your worship is in vain." Madam Dong said unhappily, protecting her two sons.
"Do you understand or not? You have to pray. It affects the lives of our family!" Mr. Dong shouted in a low voice, while glaring, "Kneel down quickly and ask Bodhisattva to bless Xu Maoxiu and the others in safety!"
This request is indeed what Madam Dong truly wishes.
In front of the Empress Hall, this family occupied a large area, forcing other pilgrims to wait, causing a lot of pointing and talking.
In the Chonghua Gate of the Imperial Palace, a chamberlain suddenly made a gesture to this side. After a moment, Prince Jin'an slowly walked out from the side, passed through a palace gate, and saw the eldest prince approaching.
"It's so early, where is Your Highness going?"
Prince Jin'an took a few steps forward, saluted first, and then asked with a smile.
So early?
The eldest prince raised his head and glanced at the sky. Only a man with nothing to do would think it was still early, right?
"Father, please let me go and attend court."
Although he was not too lazy to pay attention to this person, considering that what he had to do was worthy of showing off, the eldest prince still replied.
This is not the first time that the eleven-year-old eldest prince has attended court.
"Is it fun?" King Jin'an asked, with a bit of curiosity, "I heard that the ministers often quarreled, and the quarrels were serious."
For teenagers, going to court is naturally very boring and boring, but considering that some people will never have the opportunity to experience this kind of boringness in their lives, this boringness becomes enjoyment at this moment.
"Yes, yesterday, Mr. Chen scolded Gao Tongshi in front of the palace for a full hour. I was tired from listening to it. I really don't know where they got the strength." The eldest prince said.
"It takes that long?" Prince Jin'an said in surprise, as if he couldn't avoid it, "That's really hard work."
While talking, they had already walked to the vicinity of Chongzheng Hall.
"I'm leaving the palace. Your Highness, please go quickly." He said with some sympathy.
The eldest prince nodded proudly.
Go play, trash.
In order to show respect, Prince Jin'an waited until the eldest prince entered the palace door before he took a step forward.
Everyone from the Political Hall has arrived, as well as Yushi Zhongcheng and other officials who have been promoted to court.
The same people came, no different from three days ago.
Prince Jin'an's face darkened slightly, and he couldn't help but speed up his steps. Suddenly he stopped and looked ahead.
A tall official was slowly approaching. At this time, the sky was covered with clouds and thunder was rolling by, but this did not affect the official's pace at all. Those who saw it could even be sure that even if the raindrops were falling violently,
This official will not mess up his manners at all.
"Master Secretary is here..." King Jin'an narrowed his eyes and said, "Something has finally changed... I think the noise your Highness heard during today's court meeting will be even louder..."
After watching Zhang Chun enter the palace, Prince Jin'an looked away.
The rolling thunder in the sky finally connected into one, and then raindrops fell densely.
The thunder outside the hall gradually died down, and the heavy rain turned into drizzle.
It's been raining for half an hour, right?
Or longer?
The eldest prince wanted to take a look at the hourglass, but when he turned his sight slightly, he was blocked by two people sitting and two standing.
In the hall with more than a dozen people, apart from the lofty emperor and himself, the only person who could sit was the imperial censor.
The Censor is in his fifties this year, with a dark face and a dull expression.
Sitting so upright, isn't he tired?
The eldest prince couldn't help but move, and the chamberlain behind him coughed lowly, which reminded him to pay attention to his appearance.
So tired...
This is more tiring than going to school...
The thunder in my ears became quieter, and the noise in the hall became louder.
"...the soldiers are not trained, and the amount of empty pay is appalling..."
"So we need to organize and train them, weed out the old and the weak, and select the ones who can be used and keep them... Jiang Wenyuan has a great talent, created the art of war, and has been very effective in Weizhou. He should be entrusted with important responsibilities..."
"...When Jiang Wenyuan was in Victoria, he allowed his men to fight with others to death, and protected and forcibly acquitted them. Such people are unworthy of their importance..."
"...Master Liu, what if the servants of your ancestral home beat and killed passers-by in the street? Does this mean you are morally corrupt..."
"...Your Majesty, I want to impeach him for slandering me! I want to resign!"
The eldest prince couldn't help but let out a small yawn.
Anyway, these people are noisy and no one cares about them.
I really don’t know what they are arguing about. This is what my father listens to when he goes to court every day? This is so boring.
Besides, if there's anything to argue about, it's better to just have a fight, and whoever wins will have his say.
This was such a good idea. The eldest prince immediately became energetic. He looked at the dozens of people in the palace waving wat boards, spitting, blushing and thick-necked people. He automatically imagined what it would be like for them to fight, and almost laughed out loud.
".. Dare I ask Chen to participate in politics? If Jiang Wenyuan is not suitable, who is suitable?"
"...Zhong Chengbu, the general manager of the Xizhou Military and Horse Mansion..."
"...Zhong Chengbu is only twenty-eight years old. He relied on his father's support to get into the official position. How can he be worthy of such an important position!"
"..Back then, the Zhong family combined its strength to resist the enemy. Thirteen men died in the battle, leaving only one man, Chengbu. He was smart and capable of literature and martial arts since he was a child. He led troops into the enemy camp and returned victorious at a young age. Huo Qubing was like this
talent…"
"...Chen Participates in politics, if he has Huo Qubing's talent, he should also have Huo Qubing's destiny... He has achieved great ambitions at a young age and is entrusted with important responsibilities. I'm afraid it will not be good for his life expectancy, so he may die young..."
Chen Shao was furious.
These people know this kind of trick and cannot argue, so they start talking nonsense and disgusting people with such unfounded words!
Just when he was about to speak, someone stepped forward before him.
"Your Majesty, I have this memorial."
This voice made everyone in the palace look over. When they saw who it was, everyone looked a little surprised.
There were more than a dozen people in the hall, and there were only two parties arguing. Chen Shao and Gao Tongshi were the main arguers. Others saw the opportunity to contribute to the people they supported. In addition, there were a few others who remained silent.
, just like a puppet made of earth and stone.
These people are respectively the censor, the prince Zhongyun, and the newly promoted secretary of the secret pavilion of the third hall, Zhang Chun, a bachelor.
Zhang Chun was obsessed with academics. Except for matters related to the imperial examination, he rarely participated in debates on court affairs. He did not go to court seven times out of ten, and rarely spoke when he went to court.
This time he spoke suddenly, and everyone was a little surprised.
Even the emperor, who seemed to be sleeping on the dragon bed, opened his eyes and looked over.
"Yes." He said slowly.
Zhang Chun thanked him and turned around.
"You people are so shameless!" he shouted in a solemn voice.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked and immediately became angry.
Even if he doesn't speak, he will curse others whenever he speaks!
I provoked you!
However, there was no need for Chen Shao and others to scold him for this kind of thing, the censor just scolded him.
"Zhang Chun's words insulted his colleagues, and he has violated the rules before the emperor. He will be punished now!" The two standing censors shouted loudly.
"And you trash!" Zhang Chun immediately turned around and shouted, "I insulted my colleagues with my words and violated the rules of conduct before the emperor. You have seen that these people threaten the emperor with their words and have no regard for the emperor! You are blind."
Eyesight?"
The curse made everyone in the palace feel angry and angry.
Waste! Thing! Blind!
Although it is not uncommon for someone to be reprimanded when arguing about court affairs, it is still rare for someone to point their nose in the nose and yell at someone like this.
Zhang Chun, who was obviously a great Confucian, could speak so unpleasantly. No wonder he was killed by an assassin because of the dispute over orthodoxy.
Looking at these people in front of him, their eyes could kill him several times.
However, the reason why he scolded was to protect the king. To be honest, listening to these people making noise for so many days was really boring...
As an emperor, he cannot scold, but it would be nice to have someone scold him on his behalf.
The corners of the emperor's mouth curled up slightly. As an emperor, he couldn't show his joy, so he quickly covered it up.
But this action still did not escape the shrewd eyes of several ministers present, and they couldn't help but curse in their hearts.
Damn Mr. Daotong, you are pretty good at flattering the emperor!
There is nothing human about orthodox disputes. This person has been through the orthodox disputes for a long time and has long lost his face. It is not surprising to say such shameless words.
But we are not just stupid people who let others scold us. Suddenly, several veterans were trembling and about to cry.
"I am useless, I dare not disgrace the court, please go out." they shouted.
Chen Shao couldn't help but speak, and took the first step to speak.
Zhang Chunqu spoke first again.
"I want to impeach Gao Lingjun for being a man of power, and for being a man of power and disrupting the northwest military..." he said loudly.
Chen Shao's footsteps paused, and a hint of joy flashed in his heart.
It turns out that Zhang Xiaoshu is on their side...
Well, with him, a person who has always been neutral, coming forward, the emperor's decision should be tilted to his side.
"...I impeached Chen Shaoli for standing on the sidelines of the court. He didn't know how to repay the emperor's deep kindness, but he was greedy for power and made reckless progress, ruining the country's major affairs..."
What?
Chen Shao looked at Zhang Chun in shock.
Who is he helping?
Who are you helping? Everyone in the court is helping yourself!
Chen Shao looked gloomy.
Cheng Yaojin actually came out of the diagonal stab!
What's going on!
Not only did the expressions of the adults in the palace change slightly, but the eldest prince's face also turned pale.
It's over, it's over, let alone an hour this time, I'm afraid it won't be over in even two hours.
Although he couldn't understand what these people were making noisy about, the eldest prince also knew that one more person making noise would mean more time.
Even though the servants behind him were coughing, the eldest prince couldn't help but slumped down in his chair, almost crying when he thought about the hardships that would follow.
I'm still a child...
……………………
Thin footsteps sounded on the corridor, and the wind brought by walking made the raindrops sway.
Seeing the young chamberlain walking in, King Jin'an put down the book in his hand.
"...Winning is not easy, losing is not easy either. If you win easily, you will lose. If you lose uneasily, you will be even more defeated. Don't be arrogant when you win and don't be discouraged when you lose. Why be so panic-stricken? The crime will be punished. If you are punished, why should you stop eating because of choking..."
The little chamberlain came closer and whispered.
As the young chamberlain relayed the story, the smile on Prince Jin'an's face grew stronger and stronger.
"Adults, be careful. Even small steps can trip someone up on a rainy day." He smiled slowly.
