The fat man leaned softly on the back of the dragon chair, rubbed his temples vigorously, and muttered to himself in distraction: "Is this guy poor and crazy?" It's okay to rob, and you force people to draw nude portraits, are you such a bully? ”

Ren Xiaoyao was also shocked in his heart, he did a very secret job of robbing Sun Yi, how could Zheng Ru know? Sun Yi, that guy is really out of the way? Isn't he afraid that I will make his nude image public?

As if seeing Ren Xiaoyao's doubts, Zheng Ru sneered: "Lord Ren, before doing something bad next time, first inquire about the bitter master's family history, Sun Yi is the son-in-law of the old man, what can he hide from the old man?" Lord Ren, don't you want to admit this? ”

Everyone in the court looked at Ren Xiaoyao curiously and in astonishment, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts, even if there was no evidence for this matter, everyone also decided that he did it, in this one-acre and three-point land in the capital, there was really nothing he didn't dare to do, this guy has become a big public hazard in the capital. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes rolled, then he straightened his chest, and said awe-inspiringly: "A good man is a good man, yes, your son-in-law Sun Yi was robbed, it was I who did it, what's the matter?" ”

Zheng Ru raised his thick eyebrows, turned to the fat man and said: "Your Majesty, Ren Xiaoyao has admitted that this matter was done by him, please ask the emperor to severely punish Ren Xiaoyao, and ...... the atmosphere of my court."

"Hey, slow down, Lord Zheng, don't rush to put me to death......" Ren Xiaoyao intercepted Zheng Ru's words with a smile, and said with a smile: "In front of the emperor and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, some things have to be explained clearly, otherwise everyone will be confused, and it will not be good to confuse the public." ”

"Hmph, you admitted it yourself, isn't it clear about this matter?"

"There is another place where Ren is very unclear...... Ren Xiaoyao looked at Zheng Ru and said with a wicked smile: "Your son-in-law Sun Yi is just a seven-grade household head, and the monthly salary is only dozens of taels of silver, dare to ask this old man, why does he have tens of thousands of taels of silver on him for me to rob?" The origin of this silver is very suspicious, could it be that before I robbed him, he did a vote in another place? In that case, I'm only black at best......"

"You ......" Zheng Ru opened his mouth wide, stunned on the spot for a moment, unable to say half a word.

Today's impeachment of Ren Xiaoyao was originally his temporary interest, but he forgot such a big loophole all his life, and was broken by Ren Xiaoyao so little, he suddenly felt that he had made a big mistake, and he actually took the initiative to send his handle to him, which was really a stupid move.

With Ren Xiaoyao's not too noble character, of course, at this time, it is advisable to chase after the poor and take the opportunity to beat the water dog: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Master Zheng and Sun Yi, the head of the household, are very suspicious, a small seven-grade official, he actually carries tens of thousands of taels of silver tickets around the street, which really makes people suspicious, Weichen is loyal to the country, so he robbed Sun Yi to investigate the ins and outs of this matter......"

"Shameless!" When the ministers heard this, they scolded in unison.

The fat man glanced at Zheng Ru's increasingly pale face, tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the dragon chair a few times, and said lightly: "Ren Aiqing, don't go off-topic, now what we are talking about is your addition to the official knighthood, and there is no need to say anything off-topic." ”

Zheng Ru breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and glanced at the emperor without a trace, his eyes were full of gratitude. If the events of today cause him to lose his old age, he will have the heart to die.

As soon as the ministers heard the emperor's words, their hearts were like mirrors, today is the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, the emperor has just ascended the throne, and he definitely does not want anything discordant to appear in the court, lest everyone in the world think that the new emperor is mean and unkind, and he is anxious to deal with the old ministers, which will have a negative impact on his reputation.

Ren Xiaoyao also understood this truth, so he no longer dwelled on this matter, and when he heard this, he straightened his chest and said: "Although Weichen is not very old, his moral character is barely noble, and he is also modest and cautious. ”

"Shameless!" The ministers once again scolded in unison in their hearts. Is this guy still shameless? Do you boast so much about yourself? Isn't that the other way around?

The fat man looked happy: "Oh? So, did you agree to take up the post of secretary of the ministry? ”

"Huh?" Ren Xiaoyao shook his head quickly: "Who said I agreed?" No, no, no, Weichen wants to sue the old man to resign. ”

The Manchu Dynasty wiped sweat: "......"

The fat man's face turned black with anger and glared at Ren Xiaoyao fiercely.

The enthronement ceremony continued, but due to the small episode just now, the subsequent procedure ended hastily.

Before retreating into the harem, the fat man ordered Ren to be seen in the imperial study, and the ministers looked at this young courtier who was favored by both the former emperor and the new emperor, and many people frowned deeply.

※※※

Inside the Imperial Study.

The fat man smiled and handed Ren Xiaoyao a piece of dim sum, "Taste it, this is the core cake of Jiangnan tribute, and you can't eat such an authentic taste in the capital." ”

Ren Xiaoyao took it unceremoniously, took a big bite, and praised it: "Not bad, it's really comfortable to be an emperor, you can eat whatever you want......"

The fat man smiled: "It's actually comfortable to be a secretary of the ministry, all the officials in the world have to look at your face, and you can walk sideways in the capital in the future, and no one dares to care about you, how good it is......"

Ren was carefree, put the dim sum on the table, and sighed: "Honghu Yan knows the ambition of the bird......"

The fat man wiped his sweat: "That's the opposite, right?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao shook his head: "I didn't say the opposite, you are a bird, I am a bird, a birdfinch with no ambitions, I just want to accompany my wife and family every day, by the way, I take the money earned by the family to eat, drink and have fun outside, play birds, walk dogs, fight crickets, drink tea in the teahouse, drink wine in the tavern, listen to the story with melon seeds, if Yin of the capital government is willing to turn a blind eye, I also want to occasionally flirt with the women of the good family on the street, entertain myself and others......"

The fat man's eyes straightened: "Your ambition...... That's a big deal. ”

"Fatty, you must also know that people like me are not naturally suitable for being officials, I am timid, and I have no principles in doing things, only profit, everything is good or evil, just see if it is good for myself, an official like me will actually do more harm than good to the entire court, if I become a minister, the court will definitely be made into a miasma by me......"

looked at the fat man, and the fat man smiled silently.

“…… Fatty, the court is yours, the world is also yours, I don't want to spoil your new dynasty and new atmosphere because of me, your father and emperor have repeatedly instructed me before his death, don't be the stinking minister of power, in fact, he is too worried, I don't have the ability to be a minister, in all fairness, I would rather be the flower thief who scolds thousands of girls and young women......"

The weather was a little hot, and the fat man was sweating slightly.

“…… Besides, I was very bold, I thought that being an official could be exchanged for a lifetime of peace, but I didn't expect to be born and die several times, and almost died several times. Your sister Mi'er, as well as my other wives, including my father, they are worried all day long, worried about my safety, think about the two years I have been an official, it didn't make them feel honored, but made them worry more about worrying, as a man, this is irresponsible to the family, so, fatty, you still let me resign, let me go back and continue to be my gentleman, I will come to the palace when I have time, drink with you, and discuss the experience of picking up girls, isn't it good? ”

There are still some words that Ren Yao endured and didn't say. When he becomes the first powerful minister of the court, after a long time, the fat emperor's mental skills are becoming more and more mature, will he become ruthless? Can he still tolerate his former classmate? Distance produces beauty, and leaving can make this friendship last for a long time.

After saying that, the two of them fell silent in the imperial study.

After a long time, the fat man sighed: "Brother Ren, I understand what you just said, but I have just taken the throne now, and the only person I trust is you, I only hope that you can help me, at least let me take care of the government and politics, and if you resign at that time, I promise not to block it again." ”

Ren Xiaoyao thought for a while and said, "Okay, but there is no need to mention the position of the secretary of the ministry, I am not that material, I am still my capital garrison general, and by the way, I will be the part-time spy leader." ”

The fat man smiled in his eyes: "You really don't want to be the secretary of the ministry?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao shook his head vigorously.

The fat man patted his thigh and said with a smile: "I knew you didn't want to, so let's do it, if you don't want to be a scholar, just help me go out of Beijing once and investigate the case." ”

Ren Xiaoyao sniffled and frowned: "How can I smell a conspiracy?" Are you scheming on me? ”

The fat man said unhappily: "Nonsense! How could I count you? I will give you a fat job, and no one else can ask for it. ”

Ren Yao stared at the fat man vigilantly: "What do you want me to do?" ”

The fat man's fat face was huddled together, revealing a flattering smile: "Brother Ren, help me next time Jiangnan, Jiangnan is good, there is heaven above, there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below, smoke and rain, mist, small bridges, flowing water, in the middle of spring, it is the time when the flowers in Jiangnan are blooming, and its scenery is beautiful, teaching people to linger and forget ......"

"Come on, I'm not interested in those vain things, just say, what do you want me to do in Jiangnan?" Ren Xiaoyao unceremoniously interrupted the Jiangnan scenery that the fat man painted for him.

"Investigate a huge case of embezzling tax money from the national treasury." The fat man said honestly.

"I'm not interested, don't talk about it!" When it came to investigating the case, Ren Xiaoyao didn't even think about it, and immediately refused.

Just kidding, investigating the case, what a dangerous thing, Lao Tzu is not Bao Qingtian, why do you have to let me go?

"Brother Ren, this case involves officials of the six prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, and even some important ministers of the court in Beijing, like a huge spider web, intricately intertwined, very complicated, and Chu Shangshu of the Criminal Department can't do anything about it......"

"Then I won't go, Chu Shangshu can't do this because someone who is so good at investigating cases, how can I do it well? Don't go, don't go, it's okay, it's okay, Weichen went home to sleep......"

"Hey, Brother Ren, listen to me, if you want to investigate this case, you must not ......" The fat man hurriedly stopped.

Ren Xiaoyao walked out without looking back, and said in his mouth: "I can't hear it, I can't hear anything, Weichen is old, and he wants to go home to recuperate, you actually send me such a dangerous errand, when I am stupid......"

"Hey! You stop! Seeing that Ren Xiaoyao was about to walk out of the door of the study, the fat man was anxious and shouted: "Don't you want to see the beauties in Jiangnan?" ”

※※※

Ren Xiaoyao seemed to be immobilized, and he froze.

Then he turned his head quickly, staring at the fat man with burning eyes, emitting two faint green lights.

"Gangnam Girl? What does it mean? Make it clear. Ren Xiaoyao asked with a somewhat fanatical expression.

The fat man's face became darker and darker, wiping the sweat on his forehead, and said with difficulty: "Jiangnan has produced beautiful women since ancient times, its posture is graceful, its feelings are graceful, like the spring breeze blowing willows, with affection, such as the autumn moon fluorescent, curling Tingting, the slender hands, and the snow Hao's wrists are exposed......"

Ren Xiaoyao swallowed his saliva, and his eyes became hotter and hotter.

The fat man looked at Ren Xiaoyao, and suddenly smiled: "There is a poem that specifically describes the ...... of Jiangnan women's style"

"What...... What poem? Ren Xiaoyao was a little delirious.

"On the moonlit night of the twenty-four bridges, where does the jade teach the...... the fat man smiled and said: "The Jiangnan woman must have a bit of a unique taste, if you don't taste it yourself, it's really a pity in life......"

"Oh-" Ren Xiaoyao let out a groan of ecstasy as if he had been hypnotized, and his mind was completely confused.

Then, Ren Xiaoyao straightened his clothes, straightened his chest, showed a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, and said: "Your Majesty, the so-called 'Lord worries about the humiliation of the ministers', as a loyal minister, if he can't share his worries for the emperor, what face does he have to stand on top of the court?" Dumping the treasury, filling his own pockets, and with the jealousy and hatred of Wechen, I really can't see these scum at large, please rest assured that the emperor will hand over this case to Wechen to handle! Weichen will leave Jiangnan in the past few days, and he will definitely bring those corrupt officials to justice! ”

The fat man was cold and nodded weakly, "Then please leave it to you...... Alas. ”

Suddenly, the fat man seemed to remember something: "Speaking of filling your pockets...... In the afternoon, I will send an official from the household department to your mansion to count the property of the prince's mansion and put it into the treasury. ”

Ren Xiaoyao's face fell, and Jun's face twitched a few times in great distress.

Looking at Ren Xiao's distant back, the fat man's fat face couldn't help but start twitching.

He is a dignified emperor, and he actually wants to rely on beauty to induce his courtiers to run errands, making himself like a big teapot pimped in the green building, and the fat man's heart is full of grief and depression at the moment.

"Father is right, Ren Xiaoyao, this guy is really a bastard."

※※※

In the office.

A group of household officials and officials subordinate to the household department are coming and going, shuttling endlessly.

Boxes of gold, silver and jewelry exuding ten thousand golden lights were moved from the Ren family's treasury to the carriage at the door, Ren Xiaoyao drooped his face, watching this group of people in and out with hatred, every time they moved a box, Ren Xiaoyao's heart was like being stabbed by a needle, and he kept gasping in pain.

It was very refreshing to promise the fat man, but when he saw the boxes of gold, silver and jewelry that should have belonged to him enter the treasury, he suddenly regretted it in his heart.

"Hey! You're still not human, are you? Even my eggs are taken, what's the matter? You want to raid my house? Ren Xiaoyao finally couldn't help it, and quickly grabbed in front of the two officials, and snatched a small jade basket they were carrying, and there were more than a dozen shiny ...... in the basket Egg?

"Your Excellency...... That's the pearl of the night, not an egg. The official made a bitter face to correct Ren Xiaoyao's mistake.

"Fart! Obviously it's an egg, are you blind? Who dares to say that this is not an egg, Lao Tzu beat him to death! Ren Xiaoyao's eyes were red, and his eyes were like two unsheathed knives, slashing around the officials.

"That's it! It's obviously an egg, how can it be a pearl of the night? The subordinates of the Ren Mansion also came forward one after another to help the young master speak.

"Did you hear that? The eyes of the crowd are bright, hurry up and put it down for Lao Tzu, I still point to this pile of eggs to hatch chicks......"

The two officials glanced at each other, hesitated and put down the "egg" in their hands, the hero does not suffer the loss in front of him, the name of this Lord Ren is like thunder, this person can't be provoked.

Before the matter was over, Ren Xiaoyao turned his head and shouted again: "Hey! Do you want to be shameless? You also move the potted plants that Lao Tzu has worked hard to plant for several years? Hurry up and put it down for Lao Tzu! ”

"Your Excellency...... It's not a potted plant, it's a red coral in the East China Sea......"

"Fart! It's a potted plant, but you're blind? Have you ever seen such a plump, graceful red coral with a pear blossom pressing a begonia? ”

“……”

“……”

When Ren Xiaoyao was messing around, a subordinate came to report that His Royal Highness the King of Thailand was visiting.

Ren Xiaoyao glanced at the household officials and officials who were silent, and ordered his subordinates in a vicious voice: "Give me a good look!" Don't let them touch eggs, quail eggs, potted plants and anything like that, it's all from our house! ”

"Yes!" All the subordinates responded in unison, staring at the household officials with their hands and sneering.

Household officials sweated like rain.

※※※

"Ahh Brother Ren, I haven't seen you for many days, how are you doing lately? ”

As soon as he stepped into the front hall, the King of Thailand greeted him with a happy face and bowed his hand to Ren Yaoyao enthusiastically.

When Ren Xiaoyao saw the King of Thailand, his cold face finally eased.

Speaking in his heart, among the princes of the former emperor, except for the fat man, the only one he felt a little good about was the indisputable King of Thailand in front of him. Perhaps, only an indifferent person can behave so humbly and politely, that people can't help but have a heart-to-heart fellowship with him.

"His Royal Highness the King of Thailand, it's been a long time, it's been a long time, and the officials have lost their ......"

"Hey, Brother Ren, you know I don't like those false courtesies, so you don't have to do this in front of me, right?" The King of Thailand smiled very gently, and the corner of his eyes glanced at the bustling crowd not far away, and said strangely: "Brother Ren, your mansion is ...... Uproot? ”

As soon as he mentioned this, Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but sigh, and his tears were about to fall.

"Those guys in the household department are really not things!" Ren Xiaoyao patted his thigh and poured bitter water on the King of Thailand: "If you move the things in the Prince's Mansion, you can move them well, why do you even take my family's things with you?" How did Juniper Jun train his officials? It's just a bunch of well-trained thieves, so unqualified! Damn it! Catch Ming'er Lao Tzu has to pee on the main hall of the household yamen, and see what the old guy surnamed Du dares to do to me! ”

"This ......," the King of Thailand muttered, hesitating whether to echo Ren Yao's remarks or praise Ren Xiaoyao's eclecticism.

"His Royal Highness the King of Thailand, sprinkle together?" Ren Xiaoyao warmly extended an invitation to the King of Thailand.

"Huh?" The Great Khan of Thailand stammered: "This...... Also, it's better not to use it, Brother Ren can be beautiful alone, and the younger brother is willing to be Brother Ren, that, waving the flag and shouting......"

Ren Xiaoyao was very pleased with the arrival of the King of Thailand, since Pan Wenyuan rebelled last year, the King of Thailand has not returned since he left Beijing, and he has a good impression of the King of Thailand, at least much stronger than several other princes.

It is very rare for a prince to be able to keep his duty and not have those unrealistic dreams. Claiming the title of king and usurping the throne, such ambitions don't seem to be visible from the king of Thailand.

The King of Thailand is still the King of Thailand, with a gentle and harmless smile and an indifferent temperament, which makes people sit next to him and produce a sense of tranquility and comfort, as if the person sitting in front of him is not the royal noble, but a monk who has been away from the red dust for a long time.

Ren Xiaoyao felt very comfortable staying with the King of Thailand, and this comfortable feeling was directly reflected in his expression.

At this moment, Ren Xiaoyao was full of smiles, looked at the King of Thailand and chuckled: "The prince is coming to the cold house today, but he has something to teach?" ”

The King of Thailand took a sip of the tea bowl and said with a light smile: "Fei Ye, Fei Ye, I haven't seen Brother Ren for many days, the younger brother really misses it, the day before yesterday because he was in the Emperor's Spiritual Hall, so he couldn't talk with his arms, so the younger brother came to the door today to catch up with Brother Ren." Brother Ren, isn't it time for the little brother to come? ”

Ren Xiaoyao glanced at the busy household officials in the backyard, gritted his teeth with hatred, and said with a forced smile: "Your Highness is polite, you came at a very good time, if those guys from the household department dare to steal my things later, please ask Your Highness to help me ...... it."

"Huh?" The King of Thailand looked behind him hesitantly, swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "This ...... Not okay? The younger brother doesn't practice martial arts, and now that the fourth emperor brother is on the throne, I can't do anything wrong in the capital and make his face look dull......"

Ren Xiaoyao glanced at him dissatisfied: "How can this be called nonsense?" Look at those household officials, how arrogant they are, and they come to my house in groups to move things, is there any royal law? Where is the justice of heaven? ”

The King of Thailand smiled and glanced at him, but did not say anything.

Ren Xiaoyao took advantage of the chaos to privately lead troops to raid the prince's mansion, which was known all over the capital, so the king of Thailand did not say a word about Ren Xiaoyao's obvious attempt to confuse the public.

Peeking at the King of Thailand, Ren Xiaoyao said tentatively: "Or, Your Highness, you will come to see the unevenness and draw your sword to help?" ”

The King of Thailand smiled bitterly: "It's just something outside the body, why should Brother Ren be so careful?" Your family is already the richest man in the Chinese Dynasty, what is the use of asking for so much silver? ”

Listen, people who have no quarrel with the world talk lightly, don't you spend money on traveling in the mountains and rivers and visiting the world?

Ren Xiaoyao put on a sincere smile and said with a smile: "Your Highness's words are wrong, who would think that you have a lot of money?" Just like the appearance below, although he has grown very handsome below, he still hopes to be more handsome, and life can only be happy if he pursues it......"

Seeing the somewhat apprehensive look of the King of Thailand, Ren Xiaoyao decided to skip this topic.

"When Your Highness returns to Beijing, do you plan to stay for a long time, or stay for a few days and leave?"

The King of Thailand smiled and said: "The younger brother returned to Beijing for the funeral this time, and now the funeral ceremony of the first emperor has been completed, and the fourth emperor brother has ascended the throne as the emperor, the younger brother has no worries, and plans to leave Beijing in a few days and go north......"

The King of Thailand sighed with infinite emotion, and said: "I have a lot of land and resources, countless mountains and rivers, and I may not be able to travel all over my life, and the younger brother is really sorry in his heart, so I want to take advantage of my lifetime to try my best to visit, so it is not in vain to experience this life and the next life." ”

Ren Xiaoyao nodded, understood, this guy put aside his previous life, he must be a travel friend, the kind who loves outdoor tourism and camping, very sunny and stupid. At least Ren Xiaoyao doesn't understand the behavior of this kind of person, in order to see that bit of scenery, he makes himself like a flower child all day long, one has no food, the other has no beautiful women, and he carries a broken bag around the world, I really don't know how they can make an impassioned sigh in the face of the magnificent famous mountains and rivers when they are hungry.

"Your Royal Highness visits the famous mountains and rivers all year round, and the wind and sun are blowing, and the skin is still so fair and fresh, which really makes me envious." Ren Xiaoyao looked at the white face of the King of Thailand and praised sincerely.

The king of Thailand subconsciously raised his hand and touched his face, and then smiled: "The little brother was born like this, there is no way, I always want to show a little masculinity, but unfortunately this skin is not angry, it has always been so fair, and the little brother is also distressed." ”

Ren Xiaoyao nodded sympathetically, stroked his handsome face with infinite pity, and sighed: "Yes, no matter how handsome you are, you always have your own troubles, a handsome person like you and me, no matter how to hide it, is like a firefly in the dark, shining, alas, how do you say those ugly people live?" I really sympathize with them......"

The King of Thailand wiped his sweat: "......"

It's a bit not speculative for the King of Thailand to talk to me today......

Ren Xiaoyao decided to skip the topic again.

patted his thigh, Ren Xiaoyao sighed with emotion: "Your Highness is leaving Beijing, and you will leave Beijing in the near future, so we are probably going to get together." ”

When the King of Thailand heard this, he finally became interested, raised his eyes and said, "Oh? What happened to Brother Ren's departure from Beijing? ”

"Not fat yet...... Ahem, the emperor, the emperor sent me an errand and asked me to go down to Jiangnan. ”

"What are you doing in Jiangnan?" The king of Thailand was puzzled, then woke up, and hurriedly said: "The little brother seems to have asked something that should not be asked, forgive the sins, forgive the sins......"

Ren Xiaoyao waved his hand and smiled: "I and His Royal Highness are like acquaintances, there is nothing that should not be done, the emperor sent me to Jiangnan this time, it is for the case of the six mansions in Jiangnan to swallow the treasury tax and silver, this case involves too many people and things are too complicated, and after a year, a lot of evidence has disappeared or been artificially annihilated, and it is necessary to send Qin to investigate it, or there may be gains." ”
