"Wen Qi." Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Fan quickly stepped forward. "If everything is wrong, there is no need to lose your temper with a cat, right?"
Gongsun Xun couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, but he waved his hand casually, indicating to the maid to take the cat down: "Send it to Madam!"
Lu Fan immediately let out a sigh of relief.
By the way, regardless of what's behind this cat, Gongsun Xun kept it and gave it to his wife not so much to take care of Zhao Yun's little thoughts, but rather to take care of Lu Fan's little thoughts... That day
This guy didn't take the cat seriously and gave it to Cao Mengde on his own initiative. As a result, Gongsun Xun and Zhao Yun didn't have sex for more than half a month!
Even Liu Kuan’s wife next door came to persuade him several times but still failed to persuade him!
To be honest, if the person who delivered the cat that day was someone with unclear identity like Lou Gui or Wei Yue, then there would be nothing to say. The key is that the identities of Lu Fan and Han Dang are clear, they are Gongsun Xunzhengerba.
The master's personal minister, or retainer! As for the retainer, the lord is the master, but the mistress is not the master?
That's why Zhao Yun lost his temper without scruples, and Lu Fan begged his lord not to lose his temper at the cat... He really wanted to use the cat to make amends to his mistress.
"Zi Heng." After the cat was sent away, Gongsun Xun continued to smile. "Not to mention the cat, what do you think Cao Jie meant?"
"God knows." Lu Fan said quickly. "It seems like he wants to settle the matter, but we must be careful that the old thief Cao Jie wants to continue to hold the lord back, and then suddenly launches a cold arrow..."
Gongsun Xun sat down and looked at Lu Fan again: "It is necessary to be on guard against others. No matter what, from tomorrow on I will sit at home to avoid disaster... But Zi Heng, let's talk about the matter. Do you think Cao Jie is doing this?
How sincere is this show of kindness?"
Lu Fan hesitated to speak, and it took him a long time to hold back a sentence under his lord's gaze: "With all due respect, I'm afraid Cao Jie has exhausted all his strength!"
Gongsun Xun couldn't help but laugh... By the way, Lu Fan's mistakes during this period were not just a matter of sending cats. Luo Mu and Luo Zixian also used him, Lu Ziheng, to paralyze this side. And even though they realized that Luo Mu was there from the beginning
It was most likely an affair under orders. Although Gongsun Xun himself made more mistakes by alerting others, in any case, from the perspective of a minister, he had an unshirkable responsibility.
However, even so, Lu Fan still told his lord that he felt that Cao Jie should have done his best.
In other words, Lu Ziheng, who always spoke directly, really felt that Cao Jie's show of kindness was sincere.
As for Gongsun Xun, he couldn't help but laugh. It was because after going around Lu Zhi and Yang Qiu, he also felt that Cao Jie probably, maybe, should have really exhausted all his strength, so he reacted like this.
As it got later, the two of them talked deeply for a while, until the maid came to report that a fat cat had been brought into the backyard. The lady's expression softened a lot, and she was already giving the fat cat a bath. Gongsun Xun then
He said goodbye to Lu Fan, then got up and walked to the backyard with a bit of drunkenness... No matter what, my wife had to coax him.
"Why is your husband like this?" At midnight, Yang Qiu's wife, Mrs. Cheng, who had just stayed down and lit the lamp, climbed onto the bed again regardless of her naked upper body, and wiped the blooming bruises on her husband's forehead with some distress.
Bloody water. "Isn't everything okay? You were drinking with the white horse man in peace..."
"It's okay to drink." Qian Yangqiu, who was sitting on the couch, suddenly stretched out his hand and pushed his wife's hand away. "How can you call it relief? It's just a forced response out of desperation."
Mrs. Cheng immediately burst into tears: "Although I am only a woman, I have grown up in my family's house since I was a child, and I also know a little about the affairs of the court... Cao Jie was so fierce, and the general Dou Wu was killed by him.
The Queen Mother has been imprisoned by him, and now that the other party has given Langjun the position of guard, it means that he will not cause trouble, and Langjun should restrain himself from this to avoid causing trouble!"
Hearing these words, Yang Qiu couldn't help but raise his head and let out a long roar. He stopped after half a sound, and then became more and more angry: "What do you know as a woman? A few days ago, I regarded them as nothing, but today I actually want to
If I survive on the charity of such people, and if this continues, there will be no harm, how will the people of the world regard me as Yang Fangzheng?! How can a man be laughed at by the people of the world when he is born in this world?!"
After saying this, the yang ball actually made a fist with his hand and hit his forehead hard. Once, twice, the forehead that had just been wiped started to bleed again.
Mrs. Cheng couldn't help being frightened when she saw this, but as a free woman who was raised by eunuchs, she always only regarded her husband as her support, so she still had the courage to cry and wanted to step forward to wipe her husband, but was pushed back by the other party again.
Come on... By the way, she was awakened by the sound of a penis hitting her forehead before.
After being pushed out of bed, Mrs. Cheng thought for a long time, neither daring to step forward nor leaving the other party alone.
So, she thought about it, but carefully wiped away her tears, and knelt down naked under the bed and begged: "Mr. Lang, when I was serving you wine and food, I heard some words between you and the doctor Gongsun, saying that if you return,
I can do whatever I want if I become the Commander-in-Chief of Sili... Does it mean that if you become the Commander-in-Chief of Sili, you will no longer be angry and can do great things again?"
Yang Qiu then turned his head and looked at his younger wife, but there was a hint of ridicule in his tone: "Listening to your words, can you still help me become the Sili Colonel?"
"Although I can't do it, there are people who can." Mrs. Cheng quickly raised her head and replied. "I have a sister who was adopted by Mr. Cheng of my family. Now she is married to Liu He, an infantry colonel... A few days ago, I went home to visit relatives.
, I happened to meet my sister. According to her, her husband Liu He is very much trusted by the emperor, and the emperor recently promised him the position of three princes."
"Liu He..." Yang Qiu said thoughtfully. "This man's brother Liu Shu was an important minister of the clan. He was the one who supported the establishment of the emperor. He was Cao Jie in the internal affairs, Dou Wu in the outer dynasty, and Dou Wu in the clan.
It was Liu Su. Later, Liu Su was jealous of Cao Jie and Wang Fu. Not only did he force him to take up a foreign job, he also assassinated him on the road and even died. However, as the emperor grew older, he often thought about Liu Su's past.
Yes, so I am particularly kind to Liu He... In this case, it is normal for him to be granted the position of Three Dukes."
"That's it." Mrs. Cheng was overjoyed and climbed onto the couch again. "Mr. Lang, you might as well discuss with him... We are all relatives."
"You are thinking too much." Yang Qiu immediately shook his head and said. "Not to mention whether Liu He can still serve as the Third Duke. Even if he does become the Third Duke, now that Cao Jie is staring at me, how can he easily persuade the emperor?
Reinstate me as a school lieutenant? Besides, if you can really convince me, what I am doing is a big deal. How can he, a member of a wealthy clan, dare to help me?"
Mrs. Cheng's eyes burst into tears again, and she leaned on the couch to plead guilty: "I am stupid and said nonsense. I just hope that my husband can let go of his mind. Don't get hurt by these things!"
Hearing this, Yang Qiu looked at his young wife's smooth back and sighed: "How can I blame you? It's just me acting like this that scared you... Anyway, let's rest for now!"
Mrs. Cheng was naturally overjoyed when she heard this, and quickly crawled over to serve her carefully... The two of them were so entangled that they didn't mention it until dawn.
Not to mention that the two couples had their own differences overnight. By the next day, the news of Cao Jie's resurrection had spread throughout Luozhong and outside. All officials in the court knew that Cao Hanfeng had fought back. Not only had he regained his position as Great Changqiu and assumed military power again, he even
When he further became the official minister, they couldn't help but feel frightened.
In fact, it was not just Gongsun Xun. When the three-day mourning period for Yu Guiren was over, there were no less than five or six people at the Shangshutai alone who claimed to be ill. In this regard, Cao Jie was not polite and directly dismissed him in the name of Shangshu Ling.
These people who claimed to be sick... What is interesting is that in Taichung, the only rightful lord, Sun Xun, was blatantly ignored by him and ignored. On the other hand, the newly appointed Wei Wei Yang Qiuyang was so bold that he almost
He goes to Nangong every day and performs his duties under the noses of Huben and Yu Linjun, but he doesn't encounter any accidents... which is quite thought-provoking.
And that's not all. As a few days passed, Cao Jie not only resisted revenge on the two villains, but even pinched his nose and acquiesced to the legality of Wang Fu's case... He was just helping Wang Fu throughout the whole process.
Just collect a corpse!
You know, when Yuan She heard that Cao Jie was coming back, he was so happy that he wrote a letter to ask for reinstatement. However, he received a blow from his former partner. Not only was he unable to return to Beijing, but he was also chased to Runan by the officials and asked to be reinstated.
The term "Exile to Runan" means that a two-thousand-ton official who resigned from his job has turned into a criminal, which is like mourning a concubine! The same is true for Zhang Feng, who lives in Wancheng. After hearing about this, he was very excited at first, and then learned about it.
What happened to Yuan She was that he was frightened three times every day. In the end, he was frightened and fell ill, and no one dared to visit him!
In short, after this incident, all the officials in the court vaguely understood what Cao Hanfeng meant. It turned out that although the great Changqiu relied on Wang Fu's body to sell his body to persuade the powerful eunuchs in the palace, and then took the opportunity to blackmail the eunuchs.
Forcing Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others reconciled with him, but in the end they lost all their wings... In other words, it was precisely because of the loss of their wings that they could reach an understanding with Zhang Rang and others!
In addition, he was getting older and not in good health, so he did not want to continue fighting with Yang Qiu, Gongsun Xun and others to avoid further trouble. The current situation turned out to be that he was just seeking a wealthy and prosperous old age.
Well, after understanding this, Sergeant Luo, who had been frightened before, instantly regained his fighting spirit. Some of the scholars even continued to write to the emperor one after another with the encouragement and cover of Cao Shangshu Liu Ne, a guest of the Shangshu Taiwanese.
Killing Cao Jie, and then overturning the case for Chen Fan and Dou Wu... As a result, he was naturally hanged and beaten by Cao Hanfeng, who had all the power in the center!
Within a few days, seven or eight officials and the censor were thrown into prison, which made the situation much more stable.
By the end of April, as Liu Kuan became the Taiwei, the former Infantry Colonel Liu He took over the post of Qiao Xuan who had resigned as Situ, Yuan Wei once again became the Sikong, and Shangshu Liu Na was transferred to the Infantry Colonel, Yushitai, and Shangshutai.
The quotas were also filled one after another. The personnel in the court, from the Sangong and Jiuqing to the Shangshutai, and from the military academy captains to the Yushitai, a complete change of blood was completed in an instant under the auspices of Cao Jie.
Now, the situation seemed to have finally stabilized.
However, at this moment, Gongsun Xun, who had been reading and writing at home all day, coaxing his wife to play with the cat, suddenly received an unexpected invitation.
"Brother Zhengnan, you're all right!" Gongsun Xun dropped the books in his hands after receiving the invitation from Chen Qiu, the new Yongle Shaofu, and walked quickly to the gate wearing wooden clogs. "I didn't expect to see Brother Zhengnan again.
.”
"Have I ever met Mr. White Horse?" The trial partner who was waiting outside the door looked astonished.
"That day, I went to the prince's master's house to deliver a message on behalf of Mr. Chen. I was there." Gongsun Xun couldn't help but hold the other person's hand and said, "I'm lucky enough to see Brother Zhengnan's style!"
Hearing this, the judge, who was originally very angry, became a little embarrassed: "What happened that day actually made Dr. Gongsun laugh."
"Let's not mention this matter!" Gongsun Xun was in high spirits. "The famous Shen Zhengnan from Hebei Province came to my home. It's really impressive. Please come in and talk!"
As he said this, Gongsun Xun turned around while holding his hand, and then kicked his clog hard on the door of his house, which frightened the servant guarding the door and quickly opened the middle door... That's right, we are all distinguished guests these days.
Generally speaking, the middle gate is not open, and in the past six months in Luozhong, Gongsun Xun has encountered only a handful of incidents where the middle gate has been opened. Thinking about it carefully, the most recent encounter was when Cao Jie saw him off.
It's also interesting.
After entering the door, Gongsun Xun hurriedly called for his two confidants, as well as Gongsun Fan and others who lived in the courtyard next door, to come together to meet the guests... It was quite a courtesy.
Of course, Shen Zhengnan, the wife of Shen, is not a hypocritical person. It can be seen from the previous meeting that he is proud, generous and inviolable, so he accepts it openly as a retainer.
Accept the other party's courtesy and then enter with dignity.
When Lu Fan and others arrived, a group of people bowed and introduced each other again on the high-backed chairs in the hall. Then they sat down one by one, and Gongsun Xun solemnly asked about the purpose of their visit: "I didn't know that Brother Zhengnan is here.
If you meet me, what will you learn from me?"
"It's nothing else." Shen Pei immediately raised his hand and said. "It's just that my lord wanted to invite the famous Bai Ma Zhonglang to come to his house in the evening, so he sent me to specially invite him."
Only then did Gongsun Xun realize that the judge was no longer free, but the personal minister of Chen Qiu, a famous official who had served as a Taiwei... However, this also made the former immediately confused. After all, he seemed to be related to
Chen Qiu has no contacts.
In fact, Gongsun Xun thought about it and realized that among his acquaintances, only Qiao Xuan had a grudge with Chen Qiu... The two had a personal feud at first, but later Qiao Xuan took the initiative to promote Chen Qiu as the Taiwei, which is a good story.
Already.
Apart from that, I really don’t have any human connection with Chen Qiu!
"Dare you ask this Brother Shen?" Lu Fan on the side saw this and quickly asked for his lord. "Mr. Chen is an elder and a famous minister at that time. My lord is just a weak minister in the minister's desk. Now he is suddenly invited.
Don’t know what’s going on?”
Shen Pei, who was always known for his generosity in Hebei Province, was speechless for a moment after hearing these words.
Gongsun Xun and Lu Fan looked at each other, even more suspicious.
"I'll be honest with you all." After waiting for a while, the reviewer of the recipe slowly handed over his hands and said. "My lord does have something important to ask Dr. Gongsun for a while, and I can't say much about the specific matter at this time... and also...
It is really difficult to stay for a long time, because I have to go to Duke Yang’s Mansion in Yangqiu."
With that said, Shen Zhengnan actually stood up and left directly... but he came and left in a hurry.
Gongsun Xun had no choice but to stand up quickly and send him out the door. When the other party drove away in the car, he couldn't help but look at each other again in front of the door.
"Looking for me and Yang Qiu?" Gongsun Xunfu couldn't help but said with a smile as soon as he entered the door. "A while ago, no one invited me and Yang Qiu to be our guests. Now the two of us can only survive, but suddenly...
Here comes the invitation... Could it be that you want to sell it well in front of Cao Jie, so you want to lend me our heads?"
As soon as these words came out, Gongsun Fan and Lu Fan were fine, but Han Dang immediately became nervous.
"Master, why are you joking?" Lu Fan couldn't help but said after seeing this. "Chen Qiu was also a famous official in the dynasty. On the day Empress Dowager Dou died, it was he who spoke uprightly, confronted Cao Jie and Wang Fu, and requested that he be buried with the empress dowager etiquette... so
How can a character go to please Cao Jie?"
Han Dang couldn't help but feel relieved when he heard this, but Gongsun Fan, who had never spoken before, suddenly interjected: "Actually, regarding Chen Qiu and Chen Gong, I heard a few gossips when I was having a banquet with Sergeant Luo, but I didn't know.
Is it true or false..."
"Tell me and listen." Gongsun Xun, who was walking in front, urged.
"Listen to what I'm telling you." Gongsun Fan explained in a low voice as he walked away. "This time the political situation in the DPRK changed drastically, and all the three Dukes were vacated. Chen Qiu and Chen Gong were too hasty when they resigned from the post of Taiwei, so
He always wanted to ascend to the position of the Third Duke again to fulfill his long-cherished wish... However, Cao Jie was very wary of him because of the incident with Empress Dowager Dou. Instead, he took the opportunity to exclude him and let him take the post of Yongle Shaofu, which Wang Fu had done before.
The old position of his adopted son Wang Meng. It is said that he is deeply ashamed of it!"
"This is interesting." Gongsun Xun, who was walking in front, couldn't help but stop. "But it fits my impression of this person... Do you hate Cao Jie because of your official position?"
"Wen Qi." Lu Fan said quickly. "In this case, coupled with the hint of the trial match, Chen Qiu's purpose this time is already obvious. Maybe he wants to use the power of you and Yang Gong to win the prize."
Something happened with Cao Jie! But there is really no need for you to get involved... Cao Jie has no intention of revenge, and Lu Gong may have an explanation when, and we may have to leave Hebei someday.
What a big county."
"That's the truth." Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing. "In this situation, it is actually not very possible to plot against Cao Jie again, and I don't want to get into trouble..."
"That……"
"Then let's go there." Gongsun Xun smiled again. "I actually don't agree with Chen Qiu; I also feel that the timing is not right to deal with Cao Jie... Only Shen Zhengnan is so heroic that he came to invite him personally.
, why don’t you give me this face?”
Lu Fan frowned slightly when he heard this, but for the moment he didn't know what to say.
——————I am the dividing line of self-satisfaction——————
"Since Xun failed to kill Cao Jie, he stayed at home in Luoyang to read and amuse himself. He was afraid of Cao Jie's prowess and did not dare to harm him. However, when he heard that Jie was causing trouble to the government, he often raised his eyebrows and became angry, secretly hating that he had not yet eliminated the evil. One day
Chen Qiu of the Yongle Shaofu sent his subordinates to inspect the palace. He heard it in the hall and threw the book on the ground. He was overjoyed and said: "Qiu is a famous minister, and things may be restored!" Then he opened the middle door to welcome him.
The match fruit was invited to Cao Jie, and everyone on the left and right were shocked." - "The Heroes of the Late Han Dynasty". Wang Can
