After eating dumplings on the winter solstice, Lizi plans to return to the border city.

On weekdays, he thinks his brother is chattering, but when his brother is leaving, he is reluctant to give up a thousand pear fruits, and says, "How can you celebrate the New Year alone?" Come back after the New Year. ”

Pear rolled her eyes, "I can't celebrate the New Year alone?" Don't worry, I can still eat without you. I'll come back next year when you come back in the spring, and there are still a lot of things going on at home. ”

Liguo said angrily, "This is leaving, so you don't want to say a few nice words." ”

Lizi knocked on his brother's door for a moment, straightened up and took out his brother's demeanor, and said, "Eat Lao Tzu and drink Lao Tzu, why don't you say a few nice words to Lao Tzu?" ”

Liguo is most concerned about his brother, but for some reason, how many good words are in his stomach, he can't say it when he sees his brother. Liguo thought for a moment and said, "You should be looking for a daughter-in-law." Before coming to the imperial capital, I entrusted your family affairs to Aunt Zhao, Aunt Zhao will take it to heart, you can get married if you see a good one. "His brother is like this, he can't rest assured that he has to have a sister-in-law.

Pear sighed, "When did you learn the temper of these mothers-in-law and mothers-in-law?" You don't have to worry about my affairs, study honestly, and next year I will be able to give you Zhang Luo's daughter-in-law. ”

"You'd better take care of yourself first." Liguo is not as eloquent as his brother, and he simply doesn't compete in speech, so he went over to look at his brother's salute and asked, "Brother, are you riding a car or a horse?" ”

"Of course it's horseback riding, and it's not cold at this time." ”

"The imperial capital has to wear cotton, and the border city must wear a fur robe." Liguo said, "These clothes are thin, so you have to buy a few thick ones." ”

Pear said, "I asked the guys to help prepare, they are used to walking long distances, and they know what to prepare." ”

Liguo said, "What do you know, they just go out, and the things are also prepared by the mother-in-law at home." If you have a daughter-in-law, where do men worry about these things? ”

"I beg you, I'm dying. Don't always be 'daughter-in-law this' or 'daughter-in-law that', when you get into the jinshi, my brother will get a woman to open a bud for you. Pear asked worriedly, "Guo'er, are you holding back too much?" Brother taught you before, if you really don't like to use your hands, the little Yu'er next to you is good, and you just accept her in the room and it's nothing. "Lizi is not a person who can't think about it, since he has money at home, he has never wronged himself, let alone his younger brother, Liguo has long lived a serious young master's life, and there is no shortage of girls around him.

Rigo was so angry that she didn't want to talk to his brother anymore.

Pear was very worried, because at night Pear Guo hugged the quilt and slept with him. Of course, this is a proof of the good relationship between the brothers, and Riko understands his brother's admiration and dependence on him very well, and he really wants to talk to his brother. As a result, his brother came and went, and lay down on the bed with a straight face, without letting out a single fart. When you talk to him, he doesn't want to talk to you like a deaf man, which makes Pear very distressed.

Pear and Zhao Changqing complained with three sighs, "The pear fruit is bigger, and it is becoming more and more awkward." Hey, it's so melancholy~"

Liguo doesn't say bad things about his brother to others, but Liguo feels in his heart that his brother is too two hundred and five, and he can't see his uneasy heart at all.

Zhao Changqing had already instructed Yahuan to prepare, a thick dress that should block the wind, a mink hat, a big fur collar, a thick material and a big wool cloak, and fur earmuffs, as well as a windproof leather leg cover on the legs when riding a horse, from the pear to the man's have prepared two sets, and there can be a replacement on the road.

Liguo made up his mind and quietly said to his brother, "Daughter-in-law can't be found casually, brother, if you want to find it, don't ask too high, just like Sister Qing." ”

Pear smacked his lips and looked his brother up and down, "Your requirements are not high." Okay, just like your sister, you can find me one, I won't choose. ”

Liguo said, "I'll tell my brother when I see it." "It's easy to know what type of guy likes.

The separation is imminent, the two brothers have a lot of private things to say, Liguo is the first time to go out to the imperial capital, and Lizi is not at ease so they follow together. Yu Liguo, this is the first time that the two brothers have been separated for the New Year, and he used to watch and purchase the New Year's things at home, but now his brother is alone in his hometown, and he doesn't know how to celebrate the New Year. Liguo no longer gambled on his temper, the two chattered for most of the night, Liguo thought that his brother would ride a horse tomorrow, and Lizi was afraid that his brother's spirit would not be able to read well, so they didn't say anything and gradually fell asleep.

On the second day, Liguo kept sending his brother out of the city, and he had to send it again, Lizi said, "Or you just go back to the border city with me." ”

Liguo thought about it and said seriously, "Otherwise, I will go back to my hometown with my brother, and it will be the same to come to Spring Festival after the New Year." ”

Pear laughed and scolded, "Get out!" He bowed his hand to those who had come to see him off, and rode away.

A few years ago, Zhao Changqing received a letter from his mother's family and his mother-in-law's family, Zhao Yong was promoted to a thousand households, and everything in the family was good, but Zhao Rong still refused to marry, and the Ling family was quite distressed. The other is to worry about Zhao Changqing and Zhao Changning's sister and brother, and the rest have nothing else to do. The letter from the Xia family is also to report good news and not bad news, but to tell the two of them to pay attention to their bodies, and then let Xia Wen prepare for the exam with peace of mind and not have to worry about his family. There is also a letter written by the Ling family to Mr. Su, who has been together for more than ten years, and is not a relative but also a relative, and the Ling family has a lot to say to Mr. Su.

Mr. Su said to Zhao Changqing, "Your mother asked me to condition your body." "The Ling family was always worried about the eldest daughter's belly.

Zhao Changqing herself is also anxious about the child's affairs, but she has always been knowledgeable, and said, "Now that the prime minister is studying every day, besides, most of the children are God's will, and the time must not have come." ”

Mr. Su just mentioned that Zhao Changqing knew what he knew, so he turned to talk about the New Year, even though it was a rented house, the courtyard had to be cleaned, the peach charm was changed, paper-cuts and couplets were pasted, and various gods were sacrificed, and then it was the New Year.

Zhao Changqing prepared New Year's gifts from several familiar families, and sent them with Xia Wen before the year.

Coming back from the Zheng family, Xia Wen said, "I don't think Lord Zheng is very happy. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Lord Zheng is not happy, I'm afraid it's an official matter." It's just that it is not an ordinary displeasure to make Zheng Daren's "unhappy" on his face.

Speaking of which, Lord Zheng was unhappy because of the joint letter in September. The matter of the joint letter has been resolved, that is, the matter of Xia Wen being beaten by a few black sticks, and the imperial capital government also gave a review conclusion a year ago, it was originally a student of Guozijian who hired a murderer to beat people, and the case was finally closed by canceling the fame of this student of Guozijian and never allowing the imperial examination.

This is the end of the momentary vigorous joint lettering.

Regarding the conclusion of the Imperial Capital Mansion, Lord Zheng did not object, that is, Emperor Zhaowen did not pursue it further, Emperor Zhaowen said, "The student is enthusiastic and cares about national affairs, I understand." I didn't forbid them to speak, but now they are still young, and they should focus on their schoolwork. Next year is the National Talent Ceremony, and I am waiting to choose the talents of the pillars to settle the world. ”

As soon as Emperor Zhaowen said this, Mr. Peng mentioned the matter of the two hundred and fifty-one people who were imprisoned in the Supervision Department, and Mr. Peng's meaning was also very clear, next year will be the year of Dabi, and if you miss one session, it will be three years.

Supervising Si Lin Sui immediately said, "The case is complicated, and it has not been clarified for a while. ”

Old Minister Peng said, "Since the case is complicated, it is better to transfer it to the three divisions for trial." ”

Lin Sui's expression was cold, and he said coldly, "The affairs of the Supervision Department don't worry about it." Could it be that the affairs of the cabinet are not enough for Peng Xiang to be busy, and Peng Xiang's hand has to reach out to my Supervision Department? ”

What kind of person is Mr. Peng.

This is the master of His Majesty when he was the prince, and now after ascending the throne, Peng Xiang is in charge of the cabinet, and he has been a monarch and a minister for a lifetime, how can Lin be so ridiculed? Without waiting for Peng Xiang to speak, countless people have already wanted to crusade against the Supervision Department.

Mr. Zheng's words are the most pertinent, Mr. Zheng said, "Next year is the Spring Festival, those people have studied hard for many years, and if they miss this subject, they will have to wait for three years." His Majesty cherishes talents and loves talents, and is broad-minded, and he is still unwilling to reprimand them for his affairs. Now Peng Xiang asked Lord Lin if he was just worried about whether those who were arrested in the Supervision Department could be on time next year. With a righteous heart, why does Lord Lin need to be aggressive? Peng Xiang is the head of a hundred officials, if he doesn't ask, I will say that he is afraid of things. Now he asked, and he asked openly, honestly, and openly! This side is a heart that complements each other's righteousness! ”

I know why Lord Zheng was able to gain a foothold in the court, not only because of Emperor Zhaowen's affirmation of his character, but more importantly, Lord Zheng is really a fair person. At the beginning, Lord Zheng sprayed the joint name of the national superintendent, and the Supervision Department applauded in his heart, and the civil official system hated to be a villain and stabbed him to death. Now that Lord Zheng sprays the Supervision Department, the civil official system applauds in his heart, and the Supervision Department hates to cut off Lord Zheng's tongue.

However, there seems to be such a tacit understanding between the two sides: Zheng Boyan, a bastard, really can't kill him.

Lord Zheng was selfless, but Lin Sui refused to buy his account, and said, "Then the official will tell Peng Xiang and Master Zheng that when the case will be cleared up, and when will those people be released." ”

Zheng Dadao, "They just said a few words that were not very pertinent in the tea shop in the market, Lord Lin, the mouth of the people is more than the mouth of the people!" You are dignified, why bother with those people! ”

Lin Sui said, "Lord Zheng doesn't know the inside story at all, so it's too arbitrary to say this." ”

Lord Zheng is pitiful for those lifters, although the mouth is bad, a little punishment is good, if the spring of next year is delayed, it is a pity. Lord Zheng asked, "If there is any inside story, Lord Lin might as well talk about it, and let the official understand." ”

Lin said casually, "Before the case is cleared, there is no comment." ”

Lord Zheng immediately joined Lin Sui for the charge of "deliberately delaying the case, causing 251 people to delay the Spring Festival", Lin Sui said, "At the beginning, only seven or eight people were bought and beaten by people, and the human and material evidence were all there, and the imperial capital mansion was also tried for more than two months, during which there was no urging of Lord Zheng. I have more than 200 people who are convicted, and even if they are tried for two years, they are more efficient than the imperial capital. As the imperial history of the left capital, Lord Zheng can get a bowl of water, otherwise, Shu Lin will not be convinced. ”

Lord Zheng was angry at King Kong's temper and had a big fight with Lin Suizai.

This is the reason why Lord Zheng is not very happy, Lord Zheng is so angry that it is difficult to calm down when Xia Wen and Zhao Changqing and his wife visit, and he is still anxious about the more than 200 people who have been imprisoned in the Supervision Department.

Where does Lord Zheng still have the heart for the New Year, after thinking about it repeatedly, Lord Zheng took two catties of snacks made by the family and went to Chengenhou Mansion for a trip.

Lord Zheng and the queen's father, Cheng'en Marquis, Song Rong, and Song Marquis even made friends, although the two had some different opinions on political affairs, but according to Lord Zheng's stinky temper, the previous wives in various places were peaceful officials, and they were not less protected by Song Rong. Song Rong has long been the third product of the household servant, the emperor's confidant, all because of his daughter as the queen, he as a relative to avoid suspicion, resigned from the post of household waiter, transferred to the second rank of the minister, now not much in the court, idle at home to make a group of small plays, every day to raise birds to listen to the play, fairy days.

Seeing that Master Zheng came with a snack, Song Hou Ye smiled and said, "Alas, Song was able to receive a gift from Zheng Yushi in his lifetime, which is really the biggest surprise in my life." ”

This person was born with a good appearance, he was called a jade man when he was young, although this nickname is disgusting, but it is undeniable that the Marquis of Song, who has passed the age of not being confused, is still white and beautiful, even if he says such annoying words, he is not disgusting. Master Zheng gave him a snack and said, "You accepted my gift, but you have to think of a way for me." ”

Song Hou Ye snorted, "Then you can just take it back, I haven't eaten dim sum in my eight lives." ”

Lord Zheng not only didn't take the snacks back, he simply sat down next to Song Houye, picked up the teacup and took a sip, whether Song Houye liked to listen to it or not, he talked about the more than 200 people who were detained in the Supervision Department, and finally slapped Song Houye on the back, and said, "You have always been resourceful, help think about it, seeing that the New Year is the Spring Festival, if more than 200 people can't come out, and they miss this course, it will be another three years." Master Zheng sighed, "You and I are both from the imperial examination, and after many years of hard study, I know that it is not easy." They just don't have a door, and it would be a pity if they missed the future. ”

Song Hou Ye didn't speak for a long time, there was a solemnity on his handsome face, and he said for a long time, "You and I were both Jinshi when the first emperor was the emperor, and later became an official in the court, and since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has followed His Majesty □. Bo Yan, His Majesty is not a magnanimous monarch. When the emperor was the first emperor, what was the situation of the country, and what is the scene now, His Majesty is not a monarch who does nothing. I have always believed that as an emperor, if you let the people eat and dress warmly, you are a good emperor. As for the current dispute between the DPRK and China, Bo Yan, do you know why His Majesty has set up a Supervision Department? ”

Lord Zheng was upright and said directly, "Your Majesty's move will inevitably chill the hearts of hundreds of officials." ”

Song Houye smiled slightly, and looked at the red lacquer flowers on a pot of narcissus, "Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has never been lenient with the emperor, and now the hundred officials feel cold, the change in the East Palace, and later His Majesty Xià was seriously ill, and what the hundred officials in the court did not make His Majesty feel cold?" "The change in the East Palace can still be said to be the ambition of the rebel minister, but the year before last, Emperor Zhaowen suddenly fell ill, and ugly things happened in the central palace one after another, and countless people jumped up and down, hating to take power on behalf of the monarch immediately, these things, Song Hou Ye and Zheng Lord have personally experienced.

When Song Hou Ye mentioned the past, Lord Zheng was silent for a while.

"But an inspectorate, why make a fuss? Could it be that there is a supervision yamen, and the hundred officials are uneasy? As long as there is nothing unintentional, there is nothing to worry about. Song Hou Ye said, "Under the rule of Emperor Fengwu back then, there was still a prudent division, could it be that Emperor Fengwu was not a Ming monarch?" "Marquis Song used to accompany Jun Side, and he can still guess Emperor Zhaowen's thoughts. His majesty is old, the prince is still young, and his majesty has to guard against it. According to the selfishness of the Marquis of Song, the current queen is his daughter, and the current crown prince is his grandson, of course, he is partial to his daughter and grandson.

"Bo Yan, you and I both know where the joint letter came from. The Supervision Department is just to establish authority, and it is better for him to arrest some people than to directly clash with hundreds of officials. What's more, those who slander the Supervision Department are all facts. Song Hou Ye said, "Don't worry, Lin Sui will not take their lives, it's better to buy a lesson by mistake." "It's Zheng Boyan's anxious and righteous temper, he is in a hurry at this time, and he wants Song Hou Ye to say, this is just the beginning, what are the more than 200 people worth? If the Supervision Department has this vision, Lin Sui is also limited.

Zheng Dadao, "If the Supervision Department wants to be powerful, I would rather him directly clash with hundreds of officials than let him take some innocent people." ”

Song Houye smiled helplessly and said, "Zheng Boyan, do you really think that those people are innocent?" ”

Zheng Dadao, "Even if it is grandstanding, it is just a few people, so why bother with them." ”

Song Houye smiled, stopped talking about this matter, and said, "It's rare for you to step on the ground, I invite you to eat and drink." ”

Lord Zheng didn't appreciate it, "I gave you a snack for nothing, and I didn't give me an idea, and I didn't have the heart to eat and drink." ”

Song Hou Ye smiled, "You really don't want to eat?" Do you want to drink the champion red for more than 20 years? ”

Everyone has a fetish, and Lord Zheng is no exception. In addition to being anxious for justice and righteousness, this person is best for wine. However, if others invite him, even if Lord Zheng wants to drink, he may not necessarily give him face, but the old friend Cheng Enhou is like this, Lord Zheng squinted his eyes and asked, "Where did you get such good wine?" It's not a bribe! ”

Song Houye scolded with a smile, "Get out, I won't give you a drink if you want to." ”

When Lord Zheng heard that there was such a good wine, he chased him, and he didn't plan to leave. Song Hou Ye really has good wine, and ordered the kitchen to treat a few side dishes, and the two of them drank under the lamp. Lord Zheng tasted the year as soon as he tasted it, slurped the wine into his mouth, picked up a chopstick fennel bean and ate it, all kinds of sour gas can sour half of Song Houye's mouth full of braided shell Hao teeth, Song Houye couldn't bear it, and said, "I really beg you, can you not eat so poorly?" ”

Master Zheng didn't care, "I'm used to it." ”

Song Hou Ye has a toothache.

Zheng Daren said, "Why don't you give me two altars." ”

Song Hou Ye had a temper that would be repaid, and said, "Then you must not be allowed to bear the name of accepting bribes, your Lord Zheng I ruined my reputation on my two jars of wine, so that I can bear it." ”

Master Zheng poured himself another lamp and said, "I can still drink the wine that you sent by Marquis Song." "He's upright, but he's not without friends.

Song Houye smiled slightly, and under the candlelight, the silver threads on his sideburns flashed. Master Zheng knew what was on his friend's mind, and said, "Jiarang Jianuo still hasn't believed it." "A family has a family of sorrows, although the Song Marquis was from a mediocre background, but he is talented and talented, and at the age of eighteen he came to the imperial capital to recruit Wu'an Hou as his son-in-law. Even in the past few decades, he has done smoothly as an official, and he has won the heart of the emperor. Now the eldest daughter is the queen, the Song family is the marquis, and she is a noble. But even if Song Houye's life is smooth in the eyes of outsiders, there are extremely bad things, without him, the eldest son and the second son have left home one after another, and there has been no news so far. A few years ago, the steproom gave birth to a young son to Song Houye, and now looking at it, Song Houye will not be extinct. It's just that, for parents, no matter how many children there are, no one can replace anyone?

A shrewd and capable person like Hou Ye Song has always paid attention to his appearance, if he didn't worry about his sons who were leaving, how could he have gray hair at this age?

Song Hou Ye said, "That's it, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, I have already seen it." ”

Zheng Dadao, "Why don't you talk to the queen mother and see if you can call the attention of local officials?" "Lord Zheng, who has always been fair and upright, can say this, which shows that he does have a good friendship with Song Houye.

Song Houye snorted, "It's not enough to be ashamed, when the whole country knows that I lost my son, and the faces of the eight generations of my ancestors will be gone." ”

Lord Zheng also had something on his mind, and said, "Next year, my girl will come to the imperial capital." ”

"That's not good." Song Hou Ye said, "At our age, everything is empty, and having children under our knees is the greatest blessing." "The Marquis of Song boasted that he was wise, rich and glorious, and he earned everything with his own hands. As a result, three sons and two daughters, now the two sons are gone, there is no news, one daughter died in childbirth, and one daughter is in the middle palace, and the noble is noble, but since then, the family has been separated forever, and the righteousness of the monarch and the minister is greater than the love of father and son. Only the youngest son is by his side, four years old, it is more difficult to let the little guy give Song Hou Ye Cheng Huan, but Song Hou Ye Cheng Huan to the little guy every day, coaxing the little guy to be happy.

Master Zheng sighed, poured another glass of wine, and drank it with his head down.

Song Houye didn't ask, but sighed, "We are not having children, this is all a debt owed in the previous life." ”

Confidant! Master Zheng raised his glass, "Do one." ”

The two small wine cups "ding" touched one place, and the mellow liquor mixed with the rich aroma of narcissus seemed to smoke the two people in the room slightly drunk.
