Xuanjia Guard was originally controlled by the Cheng family. When the late emperor was assassinated, the Xuanjia Guard failed to protect him. Afterwards, the late emperor questioned the Cheng family. The Cheng family was completely defeated. It was the Wei family who took over the role of Xuanjia Guard. It has been more than thirty years now.
The General Wei who came this time was the son of General Wei, the commander of Xuanjia Guard. General Wei was old, and most of the errands of Xuanjia Guard were given to his son. Emperor Mu Xuan always valued the Wei family. And General Lin led the
The Suzaku Guard and the Xuanjia Guard both belong to the Four Imperial Guards. Because the Four Imperial Guards are headed by the Suzaku Guard, the Suzaku Guard is referred to as the Imperial Guard. In fact, all four guards can be called the Imperial Guard.
Wei Sheng is in his forties. He has a mellow life, always smiles, and has a kind face. Like Lin Cheng, he is the third-rank general Zhaoyi. According to his age, he is a rare high-ranking official. However, he is more senior than Lin Cheng.
Cheng Chang was more than ten years old, and now the two of them were standing on the same level. It can be seen that Emperor Mu Xuan loved Lin Cheng more than Wei Sheng.
Wei Sheng sat in the hall and had tea for a while. No one came, so he got up and walked around for a few steps. The waiter outside the door came up and asked, "Sir, would you like some more tea?"
"Haha, you might as well." Wei Sheng chuckled, "That's just me. I can't sit still. It's raining well today. Let me see the rain."
The boy stood aside.
The rain is like a bead curtain, dripping down.
The ground is made of blue bricks, and the rainwater flows along the green bricks. The banana trees in the courtyard stretch out their wide and thick leaves, and the bright banana flowers are tender and pitiful in the rain.
Wei Sheng tapped his toes on the threshold and asked the boy, "There are many kinds of banana flowers, including delicate yellow ones and bright red ones. Why do you only plant red ones in your yard?"
The young man replied, "Young ones don't know. The boss is doing this, and the young people just see it this way."
Wei Sheng asked him again how old he was, whether he was responsible for reception of guests in the other courtyard or just an errand. The young man bowed and said, "My lord, please forgive me. The steward has explained that we are not allowed to talk too much with the guests. If we are careless with our words,
I'm afraid of being rude to the guests."
Wei Sheng smiled, "If I ask you a question but don't answer it, it won't make the guests happy, right?"
The boy's lips were red, his teeth were white, and he looked smart. He bowed his head and said, "Young man, the master will give you food. Whoever eats his food will listen to his words."
Wei Sheng laughed. With his status, he would not argue with this young boy. He just thought to himself that he had long heard that the third prince had a good reputation for handling cases and was an expert at running a family.
With the sound of rain pouring down, Wei Sheng looked at the endless gray sky, and heard the sound of footsteps falling on the rain. Wei Sheng looked outside the moon gate, where Du Changshi, dressed in jade green clothes, held an oilcloth umbrella painted with ink landscapes and smiled.
Come.
Wei Sheng's round body suddenly appeared as agile as a fish in the water, and his palm went straight to the oilcloth umbrella in Du Changshi's hand. Du Changshi's body was like a strong bamboo in the wind, and he swung it diagonally along with the wind of Wei Sheng's palm, just right.
After avoiding Wei Sheng's palm, the two of them saw that dozens of moves had been passed. Wei Sheng was agile and Du Changshi had a handsome figure.
The two stopped in front of the door. Du Changshi handed the umbrella to the boy, held up his robe and sighed, "My new robe today, look, it's all wet."
"Oh, I'll give you a hundred pieces tomorrow." Wei Sheng pulled him to sit down in a chair and asked, "I have something urgent to ask you."
"What's going on?" Du Changshi looked completely confused.
Wei Sheng glanced at the boy, and Du Changshi said, "You step back, I will talk to Mr. Wei for a while."
The boy exited the courtyard and Wei Shengfang said, "To be honest, there was a big scandal in my brother's army. Someone just reported to me that a small flag of Xuanjia Guard ran in front of the Third Highness and was taken away by the Third Highness.
I wonder if this will happen when I return home?"
Du Changshi said, "His Highness brought someone back. I didn't look carefully. I heard from the people who went out today that they ran into His Highness on the road and wanted to redress their grievances. You know, my Highness is in charge of the Punishment Department and has some reputation. This is also
It's inevitable. However, I didn't hear that it was Xuan Jiawei. I don't quite remember what that person was wearing."
"He is a small flag dismissed by Xuanjia Guard. Naturally, he no longer has the armor." Wei Sheng thought about Du Changshi's face, and really couldn't see anything strange. However, Wei Sheng, a son of a powerful person in the imperial capital, had known each other since he was a child.
Wei Sheng and Du Shangshu were of the same generation, and Du Changshi was younger, so he could be considered a junior. However, he was Du Shangshu's younger brother, so naturally he was also the same generation. Wei Sheng watched Du Changshi grow up, and knew that if Du Changshi let him
If he saw something strange, then he knew the Du brothers in vain. Wei Sheng didn't want to take risks, so he said, "It's a poor man. I only found out about this two days ago. This Xiaoqi has been in Xuanjiawei for ten years, so
He is an honest man, and it took him ten years to raise a small flag. Now his mother is seriously ill and her monthly salary is insufficient. He wants to ask the bank officer to pay him two months' monthly salary in advance. The bank officer was mean and didn't give him any money. Instead, he beat him up.
Suddenly, two days later, they ran away. I only found out about this when I saw the paperwork for Xiao Qi’s dismissal. How come we have been brothers for more than ten years? I asked someone to investigate the matter thoroughly, and I found out that the bank salary officer had embezzled money behind my back.
The soldiers' salary is not short, and the time is not short. I can't escape the connection with the faint emperor. I want to get this brother back, only to find out that he stopped the Third Highness's car. If you are here with the Third Highness, can you please ask Xiao Du?
Please check for me. That brother is in good condition. He was fired after receiving a military stick. If he is okay, I would like to express my gratitude to His Highness in person. If someone needs to delay medical treatment, please let me pay for the medical treatment. We will
The Wei family has been in Xuanjia Guard for many years, relying on treating every soldier as their own brother, but I don't know how to let my brother suffer such injustice, I am ashamed of my brothers."
Du Changshi said in his heart, if there were no figures like my eldest brother or Lin Cheng in the imperial capital, he would be the first among the nobles. With his scheming skills, he would be the best in the world.
However, even though Wei Sheng had a look of pain and self-reproach on his face, Du Changshi didn't believe a word of what he said!
How could the Wei family, who had been in charge of Xuanjia Guard for thirty years, not know anything about the deduction of salary?
Du Changshi didn't show the slightest expression, thought for a while, stood up and said, "We are not outsiders. Brother Wei has watched me grow up. Since you are here today, I will ask His Highness. This matter is not trivial. I can't make the decision. Please
Brother, please wait a moment."
"Okay, sorry brother." Wei Sheng stood up and his round face was filled with gratitude.
Du Changshi went back and reported the matter to Mu Anzhi in detail. Mu Anzhi snorted coldly, "He reacted too quickly. If this man doesn't come before me, I'm afraid he won't be able to find out about the salary officer deducting the money."
"Your Highness, Fatty Wei has made the matter so clear. I'm afraid there is no need to investigate this matter any further."
Mu An said, "Ask Li Jiguo to prepare the chariot and horses. Since I have encountered this matter, even though Mr. Wei has found out clearly, I will go and report it to His Majesty."
Du Changshi said, "Fatty Wei must go with you."
"Whether he is a friend or not, he'd better say what he said again in front of His Majesty." Mu Anzhi said disdainfully.
Du Changshi advised, "Your Highness just said that he met Li Wu on the road and did not get involved in the Suzaku Xuanjia dispute. The emperor's four guards were led by the Suzaku Guards. However, Lin Cheng and his father had always had a bad relationship.
The father and son of the Wei family are of the same mind. Your Highness may not know that the Cheng family who was in charge of the Xuanjia Guard back then was the ancestral family of General Lin Cheng. The Cheng family was accused of the assassination of the late emperor, so the Wei family took power. Something happened to the Suzaku Guard earlier.
Now something happened to Xuanjia Guard again, who knows what the reason was. We don’t have to wade through this muddy water."
Mu Anzhi snorted coldly, "No matter what tricks they play, it's best not to treat others as fools."
Du Changshi specially asked someone to go to the inner house to ask for a cloak. Xiao Yi carefully helped Mu Anzhi put it on, and Mu Anzhi walked out directly. Du Changshi ordered the young man to go and inform Wei Sheng.
Wei Sheng arrived at the door of the house in advance. Mu Anzhi looked coldly and waved his finger at Wei Sheng, meaning that there was no need to salute, and he took Xiao Yi directly to the car and closed the car door with a snap.
Wei Sheng had limited contact with Mu Anzhi, but he had heard of His Highness the Third Prince's temper, and said to himself that it would be better to meet him if he was really famous. Wei Sheng still bowed respectfully, and after Mu An got in the car, Wei Sheng looked at Du Changshi and said,
Du Changshi nodded imperceptibly, and Wei Sheng immediately rode up to follow Mu Anzhi's car.
The rain is getting heavier.
Emperor Mu Xuan was chatting and laughing with Concubine Hui and her mother and daughter. The servant came over and reported that His Highness the Third Highness had asked for an audience with General Wei. Emperor Mu Xuan asked, "What's the matter?"
"General Wei said he was here to plead guilty, but His Highness the Third Prince didn't look well, so I didn't dare to ask."
Emperor Mu Xuan reprimanded him, "You are also the general manager, look at your courage."
Concubine Hui had already asked her daughter to get His Majesty's cloak. Emperor Mu Xuan laughed, "Are you chasing me away or something?"
"We are not chasing His Majesty away. A general is a military officer. Since he is here to plead guilty, I think it is an important matter. I don't see much of His Highness's concubine, but I often see the Third Prince's concubine at the Queen Mother's place. I often hear from the Third Prince's concubine that His Highness is careful when he is on duty.
"It's raining so heavily. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, is going to see me despite the rain." Concubine Hui said and was about to serve Emperor Mu Xuan to put on her cloak. Emperor Mu Xuan waved her hand, "No need, they are not familiar with each other, how could they get together?"
You can't just rush to the same place." He told the waiter, "Let the third child come over, and Wei Sheng will wait outside."
In such a heavy rain, Emperor Mu Xuan was guarding his beloved daughter and was unwilling to move.
Emperor Mu Xuan asked Concubine Hui, "What did the third daughter-in-law say?"
Concubine Hui said, "It is often said that the Third Highness is working hard on errands. When he is free, he can go home and have meals on time. Once he is busy, he will not be on time. The Third Prince often asks the Queen Mother for nourishing prescriptions for the Third Prince.
Your Highness, take care of yourself."
Princess Jiayue also said, "Third sister-in-law loves third brother very much. If there are any good things, first think about whether third brother can use them. One time, the imperial grandmother gave each of us a piece of good jade material and let us weigh it ourselves."
When it comes to making jewelry, it’s said that everything made by the Palace Internal Affairs Department seems to be carved out of the same mold, and everyone uses the same hairpin and hairpin. What’s the fun? Everyone is either making flower hairpins or bracelets.
The third sister-in-law asked the jade craftsman to carve out a pair of mandarin duck pendants, one for each of her and the third brother. They are so in love."
Emperor Mu Xuan joked to his eldest daughter, "Yao Wulang's temperament is much gentler than that of your third brother."
Princess Jiayue was a little shy, "My daughter also hopes that in the future she and her consort will be like her third brother and third sister-in-law."
Emperor Mu Xuan was delighted, "It will definitely be as you said."
With an impatient look, Mu Anzhi followed the chamberlain to the inner courtyard where the palace concubine lived. He had been in the palace for many years since he was a child. Although he was older now and rarely entered the inner palace again, he was no stranger to it.
However, when Emperor Mu Xuan saw his dark face, he couldn't help but frown, "What happened? Look at your face."
"It's a troublesome matter." Mu Anzhi first asked Concubine Hui to greet her, and Concubine Hui said softly, "Your Majesty, Jiayue and I will go over and have a look at the dinner in the small kitchen."
"Go ahead."
Emperor Mu Xuan pointed to the round stool beside the couch. Mu Anzhi weighed it and sat down on the round stool where Princess Jiayue had just sat. Emperor Mu Xuan said in his heart that it was quite Taoist.
Mu Anzhi directly told about his encounter with Li Wu on the way back home, "I thought at the time that his status as a Xuanjia guard was a bit of a hindrance. After all, he had a superior officer, but they all stopped in front of my car, so I couldn't just leave it alone."
, I asked people to take him back to my house. Not a few minutes after I returned to my house, General Wei Sheng went looking for him." He told Emperor Mu Xuan exactly what Wei Sheng told Du Changshi.
"I don't care about their bad things. I came here just to tell His Majesty that I will let Li Wu go home after he recovers from his injuries. It's not that he interferes in the internal affairs of Xuanjia Guard. It saves his life anyway.
Now that I've been hit, I don't care about their affairs in the army. For such a humble citizen, who can be killed just by saying a few words, just treat it like I do one good deed a day."
Mu Anzhi said after the report, "Your Majesty has no further instructions, so I will leave first."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Emperor Mu Xuan took a sip from half a cup of tea on the table, "What do you think of this?"
"I don't know." Mu Anzhi said frankly, "I asked Du Changshi to ask about Li Wu. The half-salary issue has been around for a long time. General Wei also found out about it and thought it was true. Otherwise, even if
General Wei has nothing to do with it, and he can't pour stolen money on Xuanjia Guard himself. As for the rest, we have to look at the evidence."
"It really doesn't stop for a moment." Emperor Mu Xuan was used to seeing disturbances, so he suppressed the matter for the time being, but he saw that Mu Anzhi became more and more pleasing to his eyes. Although this son had a bad temper, he was a sincere person who did his job. Except for the affairs of the Ministry of Justice, he did not do anything more.
Emperor Mu Xuan said, "Concubine Hui is very good at her craftsmanship. Now that she is here, sit down and try it together."
Mu Anzhi said, "Thank you Your Majesty for the meal. When I came out, sister Yuhua said that the kitchen had stewed sour bamboo shoots and ham soup. She was waiting for me to go back." Mu Anzhi always spoke coldly. When he mentioned Li Yuhua alone, everything from his voice to his expression changed.
They couldn't help but soften. Emperor Mu Xuan couldn't help but sigh, and said with a smile, "Okay, you two can use it for yourselves."
As he spoke, Emperor Mu Xuan waved to Mu Anzhi, who leaned forward and stepped forward. Emperor Mu Xuan whispered, "That Li Wu, I'd like to ask him about his time as an errand in Xuanjia Guard."
"yes."
Emperor Mu Xuan ordered Mu Anzhi to retreat.
Mu Anzhi didn't have any precise information about what happened to Xuanjia Guard. The next day, Du Changshi found out that the salary officer who had embezzled salary money was named Cheng. Du Changshi's eyes were glaring, "Your Highness, you can't even think of it."
, Master Cheng was originally exiled when the Cheng family was in trouble. He had no livelihood. The Wei family took him in and allowed him to make a living in the army. Now he is a salary officer, and he is also a fifth-grade official.
.In total, General Lin Cheng will still call Master Cheng uncle."
Mu An was a little confused when he heard this, and asked, "Is he his uncle?"
"Of course he is his biological uncle. The biological mother of Master Cheng and General Lin Cheng is a half-sibling. When the Cheng family was in trouble, Master Cheng was still young and not very sensible, so he was exiled with his family. Later, he was exiled with his family.
His Majesty has ascended the throne and made great achievements in the world. He will return to the imperial capital." Du Changshi said while packing up the official documents approved by Mu Anzhi.
Mu An said, "Then why did Lin Cheng let his uncle work in Xuanjia Guard?"
"This is the strange thing about General Lin Cheng. At that time, most of the adult men in the direct lineage of the Cheng family were killed. Those clan members who were incompatible with each other were all distant relatives. This Master Cheng was the closest by blood. But guess what?
, General Lin Cheng never interacts with Master Cheng, and even if he meets, he is like a stranger." Du Changshi sighed, "General Lin Cheng is still criticized by people for this matter, but now think about it, Master Cheng now recognizes this
Regarding the matter of embezzlement of money and salary, if General Lin Cheng has always been in close contact with Mr. Cheng, it is unlikely that he will be implicated now. General Lin Cheng has always been as cold as ice, and now he is clean."
Mu Anzhi opened a new volume of official documents and asked, "Is Mr. Cheng still alive?"
"Dead. I heard he committed suicide out of fear of crime. Xuan Jiawei confiscated a lot of property from his house."
Mu Anzhi said coldly, "How is the trial of the Zhao family case going?"
The author has something to say: ps: Haha, I didn’t expect that there would be a third update. Today I have a lot of thoughts, so I posted it as soon as I coded it~~~~~~In the past, there were times when updates were delayed, and times when I asked for leave. In short, there were also stones.
Please give me some praise when I add more updates~~~~~~
There are many students who are not very clear about the relationship in the text. Let me explain it in this chapter.
Lin Cheng's maternal family, the Cheng family, was accused of not being a good protector during the late emperor's time, and was completely defeated. The time was relatively early, when Emperor Mu Xuan had not yet ascended the throne. These contents have been revised, in chapters 206 and 207. Because I started to think
The Cheng Family Case was linked to the Liu Family Case. Later, due to the time difference due to Lin Cheng's age design, modifications were made. Students who have not read the modification can take a look.
