The sun was shining brightly, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. On the small table in front of the couch in the open house near the lake were the juicy bayberries and red cherries that Tang Mo had specially brought for him to eat. In the fine azure porcelain cup was Chen Jian's favorite Longjing.
.
The Chen family also didn't have such good tea. Tang Mo specially asked for it from His Majesty the Emperor and gave it to him.
Tang Mo never liked tea. Tang Mo liked sweet soup.
The tea is good tea, the fruit is good tea, and the person is a good person, but for some reason, Chen Jian has a very strong urge to vomit blood!
Qi Qi Tang Mo asked him with a fair face and two big watery eyes, "Then it's settled, Ah Jian."
"Decide on you!" Chen Jian stood up angrily, paced back and forth in the open hall, and asked Tang Mo after several rounds, "Who instigated you to go to Tongzhou?"
"No one encouraged me. The third brother asked me if I wanted to go, and of course I was willing. A Jian, you don't know, the hottest thing right now is the Nanyi military ration case, which is a big case. You kept asking me to take the test
I don't even care about the scholar, otherwise I would have asked Third Brother for a job!" Tang Mo handed a big bayberry to Chen Jian, but Chen Jian looked down and refused to eat!
Tang Mo just ate it by himself, and continued, "Just think about it, how many big cases like this can happen in your lifetime! Even if you don't find me, I will get involved! If nothing else, I will tell my grandchildren in the future.
Speaking of which, your grandfather and I have handled all kinds of major cases! How majestic!"
He shook his head proudly and said to Chen Jian, "With such a good thing, of course I can't forget you, A Jian, so I'll come find you!"
Chen Jian was so angry that when the Zhou family's case was revealed last year, Tang Mo was a bit hesitant and wanted to get involved. Chen Jian was afraid that this little fool would fall into a trap, so she encouraged Tang Mo to take the scholar examination.
There is still a certain gap between Tang Mo's academic level and that of a scholar. Chen Jian asked him to come over every night for tutoring. Tang Mo had no other thoughts except to take the exam for a scholar. It was not a waste of tutoring. Although his ranking was not very good, he still passed the exam.
.
As a result, as soon as he was selected as a scholar, he took the initiative to jump into the pit.
It was too late to stop anyone.
Chen Jian said angrily, "I won't go."
"Ah? Why don't you go? Such a good opportunity!" Tang Mo was surprised, "I haven't told my mother about this yet. I came to find you as soon as the third brother gave me this job."
No matter how depressed Chen Jian was, he couldn't help but feel warm after hearing what the little fool said. The little fool had a good heart, but he suffered losses too easily. Chen Jian said, "I have never been a errand. You have only been in the Ministry of Justice for more than half a year.
Let us investigate the matter at Tongzhou Wharf. How do we investigate this? Do you know?"
"I know. The Ministry of Punishment now has the confessions of the Zhou family. I have read them all. There are records of their smuggling things. Generally speaking, this pattern cannot be escaped. We used to check and sort out, and then clean up. We have to clean up the things on the dock.
Once those messy personnel affairs are cleared up, uncle can send honest and capable officials to fill the vacancies." Tang Mo was quite organized.
"Then you can do it by yourself, why do you want me to do it?"
"We are good friends. Brother Hu told me that Uncle Chen was framed at that time. Do you remember about the prostitute? Brother Hu said that this time the concubine of the Zhou family was specially trained to go to a wealthy family.
It was given by a big family, and this time even Crown Prince Nan'an was involved. The two cases seemed unrelated, but they gave people some inexplicable similarities. There was also the previous case of the Salesian Bureau, all related to women.
.I thought what Brother Hu said was reasonable, so I came over quickly."
Chen Jian's eyebrows jumped very quickly when she heard Tang Mo murmur, "You really don't want to go, go ahead, you have nothing to do in the imperial capital. It's boring to stay idle like this. The number one scholar will be the year after tomorrow."
Which test?"
Seeing his bulging cheeks, Chen Jian reached for the bayberry again and slapped the back of his hand, "Eat what you have in your mouth first."
"I got it for you." Tang Mo rubbed the back of his hand and handed the biggest bayberry to Chen Jian. Chen Jian glared at him and said, "You just have a sweet mouth." He took the bayberry and put it in his mouth gently.
Tang Mo looked at Chen Jian with a smile. Ah Jian actually had a good heart, but had a bad mouth, so he didn't have many friends. As Ah Jian's only friend, he had to give in to him!
If Chen Jian knew what Tang Mo was thinking in his heart, he would probably vomit blood and fall to the ground and die.
Yes, Chen Jian is as famous as his outstanding talents for his moody temperament. Even his father can get a sincere comment from him:
"Dad, are you stupid?"
He angrily wrote a letter to his father to complain to his elder brother, saying that his son looked down on him.
Although Chen Jian was handsome, he was born with an arrogant temperament that said "all living beings are stupid". Even though he had been studying in the inner library for many years, he never made a single friend.
But what's strange is that Chen Jian, who believed that ninety-nine percent of the world was made up of idiots, had a close relationship with Tang Mo, the son of Tang's consort, who was a well-known backward person among the rich and powerful.
Tang Mo, the youngest son of Princess Fengyang and the consort of Tang Dynasty, does not need to bear the burden of the family. He is pampered and spoiled. He is not good at literature and martial arts. If nothing happens, he will be a family mascot in the future.
Just like this, two people can become good friends.
It cannot but be said to be a miracle of heaven and earth.
The two of them were standing in the open space eating fruit. Tang Mo spit out a fruit core into the lake. Chen Jian glanced at him and asked, "What did Juan Lidu tell you?"
Tang Mo told Chen Jian the truth. Chen Jian asked a lot about the Ministry of Punishment. However, Tang Mo was pressured by him to study and take the scholar test. Tang Mo also knew some things and some didn't. Fortunately, Chen Jian knew everything after hearing it.
The Chen family has its own sources of information, and he can guess pretty well.
In Chen Jian's opinion, His Highness the Third Highness was a decent person. At least during the days when Tang Mo was in the Ministry of Justice, Tang Mo had never been involved in the difficult and offending lawsuits handled by His Highness. Now that the military rations case was suppressed, facing the Third Division,
The Third Highness was afraid that there were not enough manpower, so he included Ah Mo.
Ah Mo has always been serious about his work. Besides, the Tang family can't let Ah Mo go alone. Even he can't really ignore Ah Mo.
There were three bayberries left on the plate. Tang Mo gave two to Chen Jian and ate one himself. While eating, he said, "You and Brother Hu are classmates. I didn't even know that. I've never heard you say that before, A-Jian."
"Why are you talking about this?" Chen Jian said dissatisfied, "I have known you for so long, and I have never heard you call me brother. Instead, you call me brother to others."
"Ajian, although you are older than me, I think you are like my younger brother."
Chen Jian barely managed to choke Tang Mo to death with the bayberry, so he held him down and beat him twice. He waited until Tang Mo begged for mercy and called Brother A Jian twice. Tang Mo smiled, straightened his clothes, and asked Chen Jian, "A Jian, do you want to be a doctor?"
official?"
"what?"
"This time we go to Tongzhou to investigate a case. I'm afraid that it will be difficult for you to work without an official status. If you want to be an official, I will tell my uncle to get one for you."
Chen Jian's hair barely stood up, so she grabbed Tang Mo's palm and slapped him, "That's nonsense. I want to take the official Jinshi examination, so why do I need you to ask for an official position for me! You think I am you!"
"What's wrong with me? You didn't take the Jinshi exam just to be an official. Why take the exam when you can get one directly?" Tang Mo said matter-of-factly, and that's what he thought.
Chen Jian warned Tang Mo, "Anyway, you are not allowed to talk too much on my behalf. If I know you are going to ask for an official position, I will beat you to death."
"You think I'm willing to help anyone, but my good intentions are not rewarded!" Tang Mo snatched the last big bayberry left in Chen Jian's hand and ate it himself!
"Then why are you taking the scholar exam?"
"We, the Tang family, are all very knowledgeable. My father and brother both have fame, and I want it too." Tang Mo bumped Chen Jian with his elbow and said with a smile, "Besides, A Jian, you are so powerful, I'm afraid you will dislike me.
.”
"Nonsense. You are a little fool and I don't mind you either."
Tang Mopu spat out a bayberry core into the lake. Chen Jian was furious, "If you spit fruit cores into my lake again, I won't be able to beat you to death!"
Tang Mo was once again pulled by Chen Jian's ears and scolded about the rules of eating honestly and not throwing away peels and cores. Tang Mo covered his ears and complained, "You just said you wouldn't dislike me no matter what. You've changed so quickly."
.”
"These two things!" Chen Jian continued to talk about him, "Look at this crooked appearance, you can't sit down properly?"
Tang Mo told him and immediately lay down on the bed.
Chen Jian laughed angrily.
Since Chen Jian was going to Tongzhou with Tang Mo, the first thing he did was to help Tang Mo form an entourage.
Tang Mo's son-in-law knew that Tang Mo was going on a long business trip, so he didn't stop him. He just gave Tang Mo two bodyguards and left the rest to follow. Tang Mo also had officials in the Ministry of Justice, so Chen Jian helped him pick five people to accompany him. In addition, the Tang family's Qingke staff
Here, Tang Mu chose two old adults to accompany his younger brother.
In addition, Chen Jian was selected together with Tang Mo in the guard class of the Criminal Department.
Chen Jian did not want an official position, but was now listed on Tang Mo's staff list. He read the relevant confessions of the Zhou family from the beginning twice, and copied all the accounts and took them with him.
Even though Chen Jian was famous for his bad temper, Du Changshi admired this junior fellow student in the inner library for his ability and neatness in doing things.
Emperor Mu Xuan sent Tang Mo, who had come to resign him, and summoned Mu Anzhi to the imperial court to ask about the matter in person. Emperor Mu Xuan said, "Xiaobao is excited to share my worries. He is a motivated child, but the matter in Tongzhou is not a small matter. You
If you send him away, will he succeed?"
Mu An said, "I'm afraid it won't work if I replace him with someone with seven exquisite orifices. Xiaobao has a pure mind and has no other thoughts. He is more suitable than others."
Early summer was the most comfortable, and Emperor Mu Xuan was not always in the house. Listening to the chirping of birds, Emperor Mu Xuan simply went out for a walk. Mu Anzhi followed him, and Emperor Mu Xuan said, "The military ration case is merged with the Zhou family case and the Yan family case.
What kind of charter do you have, Si?"
"Re-pick the manpower and review it from the beginning."
Emperor Mu Xuan glanced at Mu An and said, "All the people who came before us are no longer needed?"
"It's not necessary at all, but there needs to be a screening process. The Nanyi military ration case has been tried for a year, and nothing has been found. It has been delayed. I don't need this kind of old man to work in foreign affairs. If you don't want to get involved, you can quit. If you are willing,
The people involved in this case handled the case with all their energy.”
Emperor Mu Xuan couldn't do anything about Mu Anzhi's blunt way of speaking, but fortunately he heard the truth. The father and son went to the large pond in the courtyard one after another, where the water lilies in the pond pulled out light-colored buds, with one round corner missing.
The leaves floated on the water, and there were fish playing in the water from time to time. Emperor Mu Xuan said, "The Zhou family is involved in the case. Now the Nanyi military grain is sent to Guanpu, but it is the envoy who transports grain. There are many discussions in the court. Do you have any opinions?
without?"
"No." Mu Anzhi answered simply.
"What did you hear this morning?"
"This matter has nothing to do with the Ministry of Justice. I didn't listen."
Emperor Mu Xuan called Mu Anzhi again and said, "Prick up your ears and listen more from now on!"
Mu Anzhi didn't take it seriously and said to himself that it's none of my business. What's wrong with this?
Emperor Mu Xuan became angry when he saw Mu Anzhi's ungrateful appearance, and waved his sleeves to dismiss him. Then, when Mu Anzhi returned home, he changed his mind:
Because, the second prince's concubine was diagnosed with pregnancy.
The good news from the Second Prince's Mansion directly caused an earthquake in the Third Prince's Mansion!
