Chapter 193: Out of Breath (First Update, Ask for a Monthly Pass!) )

The sky is not yet bright, only a trace of bright red overflows from the east, covering the sun behind the clouds, and when the time is ripe, it will leap out and shine on the whole world.

Xie Dongli got up early, didn't eat breakfast, put on his court clothes, took a bandage and tied his left arm that was whipped yesterday and hung it around his neck, and with the other hand took the concerto, and walked out of Nanshan Xuan, where he lived.

Ah Shun squatted under the dripping eaves at the door of Nanshan Xuan's upper room, holding a bowl of millet and chicken porridge and eating it all over his head, sweating.

Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, Ah Shun looked back and saw that it was Xie Dongli who came out, and hurriedly ate all the remaining chicken porridge, put the bowl on the seat railing of the tung oil varnish, got up and said, "Fifth master, are you going to the court?" ”

Xie Dongli glanced at him coldly, didn't say a word, and strode out.

Ah Shun was stunned for a moment, hurriedly followed, squinted at Xie Dongli's hanging left arm, and stopped talking.

He clearly remembered that this arm was fine yesterday, why did he hang it today?!

Xie Dongli didn't look at him, but he seemed to know what he was thinking, and said coldly: "My arm hurt all night last night, what about the bruising medicine?" ”

"The little one is going to send someone to find the steward!" Ah Shun hurriedly hunched his waist and said, "Since you are injured, why don't you take a day off and rest at home today?" ”

"Break? How can I rest! - I'm busy! If I don't rectify those sluts today, I, Xie Dongli, will be this official for nothing! Xie Dongli squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, flicked the sleeves of his robe, solemnized his face, and walked quickly to the door.

Ah Shun understood that the fifth master's heart was not going well.

Look at this dark and gloomy face...... Someone is going to be unlucky......

I just don't know who is so short-sighted that he will bump into the knife edge of the fifth master?

Came to the Xie family's car. Taking advantage of Xie Dongli getting into the car, Ah Shun glanced at his face and couldn't help but shudder. - The face of the fifth master. It was gloomy and cold than he had ever seen!

The clouds and mist in the sky gradually dispersed, and the rising sun sprinkled thousands of golden rays, decorating the capital of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom in early autumn with yellow and bright.

Xie Dongli sat in the cart with an expressionless face.

Ah Shun glanced at it, and saw that the fifth master's handsome face couldn't even suppress the light of the morning sun, but he was solemn and didn't have a smile.

Yesterday's incident made the fifth master really so atmospheric?

Or is it because of the ...... of resignation The fifth master actually cares about the Zhang family's family affairs?

It's in Ah Shun's cranky thoughts. The Xie family's cart came to the palace gate.

There are already a lot of officials standing here waiting for the court.

Seeing Xie Dongli coming, they all came to greet him.

He just nodded, and stood behind Prime Minister Shen Dacheng in front of him.

His arm was seen bandaged. Hanging around his neck, someone who had been to Situ's house for a banquet yesterday hurriedly asked, "Lord Xie, your arm is not in the way, right?" ”

"Out of the way, it's not broken yet." Xie Dongli said indifferently. His eyes swept over the face of Deputy Prime Minister Zhang Shaoqi, who was shrunk to the side and sneered.

“…… Mr. Xie. Xia Guan knows a national hand doctor, who is the best at bone-setting, why don't I recommend it to you? ”

"What kind of national hand doctor do you want?! Master Xie, my father is a doctor in Tai Hospital, and he is especially good at seeing orthopedics. …… Or maybe my dad can go to your house and sit down......"

"You just blow it! Your dad is the best at internal medicine! - Master Xie, my eldest uncle is the best at orthopedics. It is the famous 'one-finger Zen' of Tai Hospital! That is, with just one finger. You can straighten your bones! ”

Seeing that there was an opportunity, some idle officials immediately surrounded them and begged Xie Dongli one after another.

Xie Dongli only threw these people to Ah Shun to cook: "Everyone, Xie is on official business, so I can't talk to you today." I have something to find Xie Mou's little guy. - Let's talk another day! We'll talk about it another day! As he spoke, he arched his hand, and when he saw the palace gate open, he followed behind Prime Minister Shen Dacheng and walked into the palace gate.

The Great Dynasty Meeting of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom is held once every ten days, and today is the day of the Great Dynasty Meeting.

The officials who served Zhu Peizi rushed in, greeted the rising sun, and came to the Baohe Hall where the Eastern Yuan Kingdom held a great court meeting.

Emperor Yuan Hong, surrounded by eunuchs, walked to the high throne of the Baohe Palace.

Beneath the throne are two bronze crane incense burners.

A faint scent of ambergris rose from the crane's mouth, separating the boundaries between monarchs and ministers.

After the eunuch sang peace, Prime Minister Shen Dacheng took the four deputy ministers and hundreds of officials to pay homage to Emperor Yuan Hong.

Xie Dongli stood behind the five phases.

His long figure is already very eye-catching, and the official robe with red edges on the black ground reflects the white bandage, which is even more eye-catching.

Sure enough, after the official saluted, Emperor Yuan Hong saw Xie Dongli's arm hanging on his chest at a glance, and asked in surprise: "Xie Aiqing, what's wrong with your arm?" ”

Zhang Shaoqi, who was standing in the position of deputy minister, had no choice but to step out of the ranks, and bowed in front of Xie Dongli and said, "Your Majesty, it was the poor discipline of the lower officials that caused Lord Xie to be injured." However, the lower officials have already disciplined the dog fiercely and punished him for kneeling in the ancestral hall......"

"Vice Minister Zhang, why don't I break your son's arm, and then I will also kneel in the ancestral hall at home, do you think it is feasible?" Xie Dongli took a step forward and said coldly, and without waiting for Zhang Shaoqi to answer, he had already said to Emperor Yuanhong: "Thank you for your inquiry." The injuries of the lower officials are not hindered, and they can still go to the court council. ”

Emperor Yuan Hong listened to two sentences, smiled, twisted his beard and said, "So, it was Xiao Zhang Aiqing's son who injured Xie Aiqing?" - Xiao Zhang Aiqing, your discipline is not effective, beating people like this, just kneeling in the ancestral hall? ”

Zhang Shaoqi preemptively said that he had punished his son Zhang Linquan, but he was worried that Xie Dongli would take advantage of the problem. - I've already been punished, so I can't do it again, right?

I didn't expect Xie Dongli to save face for him at all!

Even Emperor Yuanhong favored Xie Dongli, Zhang Shaoqi couldn't help it, and sneered: "Your Majesty, can you pull the bias!" Why don't you ask, why was Master Xie beaten?! ”

Obviously, it was Xie Donglian's little guy who made the first move!

Emperor Yuan Hong glanced at Xie Dongli with a smile.

Xie Dongli had already straightened his expression, smiled gently at Zhang Shaoqi, and said lightly: "Lord Zhang." Our Dongyuan Kingdom's ten-day court meeting is not for us to count each other down like a broken mouth. - I know that Xiao Zhang only has this one son, and he is a baby. If I ask that your only son's arm be broken, will I not make you hold a grudge? As the saying goes, it's easy to dodge with an open gun, but it's hard to defend against a hidden arrow. I can't pick my shoulders, I can't lift my hands, I'm a weak scholar, and I want to keep a useful body to be loyal to Your Majesty. There's not that much effort to deal with these guns and arrows. It's better to do this, while everyone is here, let His Majesty be a witness. Let's get this to the point. Even if my arm is broken, it is hidden in the sleeve, and I will not trouble your son in the future, and Lord Xiao Zhang will not go to great lengths to embarrass him, how about it? ”

The words are not leaky. Both have been good people. seemed to be upright and benevolent, not careful, and yin Zhang Shaoqi again, gagged him, and put a hat of "personal revenge" on him in advance.

Zhang Shaoqi was neither in favor nor against, and was so angry that Xie Dongqi was angry, and his face was red. A burst of white, a burst of green. A burst of purple, pointing at Xie Dongli, a series of "you, you, you ......" for a long time, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.

Xie Dongli held the piece in one hand, took a step to the side, and said with a shallow smile: "Lord Xiao Zhang, is this unwilling to end?" - What then? Could it be that your son discounted my left arm, and you still want to discount my right arm? ”

"You, you...... Sling the bull! Zhang Shaoqi was furious, and finally roared, but an air surged up in his chest, blocking his throat, so that he couldn't get up in one breath, and the whole person staggered and walked two steps, and his hands reached forward, but Xie Dongli had already let go.

Thump!

Zhang Shaoqi fell to the ground all of a sudden, his face was purple and he couldn't move.

There were also imperial physicians accompanying them at the court.

At this time, as soon as he saw Zhang Shaoqi's appearance, the imperial doctor on duty hurriedly rushed over and said loudly: "Lord Xiao Zhang has had a stroke!" Take the door panel and carry Xiao Zhang out flat! Don't use too much force! ”

Soon a group of eunuchs carried the door panel into the palace and carried Zhang Shaoqi out.

The officials at the court meeting looked at each other and cast a look of awe at Xie Dongli.

This young and gentle champion Lang spoke like a sword, and he scolded Xiao Zhang with a stroke and fell to the ground with just one word!

Xie Dongli squinted at Zhang Shaoqi, who was carried away by the eunuch, shook his head and said, "Alas, people say that the prime minister can hold the boat in his belly. Master Xiao Zhang has also been a deputy minister for more than ten years, how can he have this little energy? - It is said that it is difficult to even thread a silk thread to support the boat! ”

This is ridiculing Zhang Shaoqi's heart eyes that are smaller than the tip of a needle......

Zhang Shaoqi's eldest brother Zhang Shaohong is also one of the deputy ministers.

His younger brother Zhang Shaoqi's position as deputy prime minister is the position of the Xie family.

Now that Xie Dongli is doing this at the court meeting, Zhang Shaohong is clear in his heart. - This is the beginning......

Xie Dongli turned around, looked at Zhang Shaohong quietly, and said in his heart, even if your Zhang family is unlucky, you hit the muzzle of the master. If the master is not comfortable in his heart, he will discipline you in his heart, and he will be even more uncomfortable!

Xie Dongli won the champion two years ago, and Emperor Yuan Hong originally said that he would be a waiter in the Ministry of Rites first, and then take over the position of deputy minister belonging to the Xie family after three years.

Among the five phases, because the Xie family has not had a jinshi in the imperial examination for more than ten years, the position of prime minister of the Xie family has always been occupied by the Zhang family.

Originally, it was a five-phase phase, but in the past ten years, there are only four surnames.

The Zhang family occupies the position of two deputy ministers.

Zhang Shaoqi is in charge of the Ministry of Rites.

Emperor Yuan Hong handed over the affairs of this year's imperial examination to Xie Dongli to take care of, which almost overturned Zhang Shaoqi.

Of course, the Zhang family did not want to give up the position of deputy prime minister in vain, and they had already planned to negotiate terms with Xie Dongli.

Unexpectedly, yesterday was an osmanthus banquet of the Situ family, and he actually had a grudge with Xie Dongli on the surface.

In this way, their Zhang family can make fewer moves.

Emperor Yuan Hong didn't seem to be aware of the undercurrent between the ministers in the palace, and only smiled and said, "Xie Aiqing, how are the preparations for the Autumn Festival?" ”

Xie Dongli held up the chapter and said, "The ministers are all written in this fold." ”

"Bring it on!"

The eunuchs who were waiting beside Emperor Yuan Hong were busy taking the chapter from Xie Dongli and presenting it to Emperor Yuan Hong.

Emperor Yuan Hong was stunned after only one glance, closed it quietly, asked a few more things, and said: "That's all for today, if you still have something, go to the chapter." Shen Aiqing, you and Xie Aiqing go to the study with me and carefully discuss this year's imperial examination. ”

The Great Dynasty was dispersed, and Xie Dongli followed Emperor Yuan Hong to the upper study with Prime Minister Shen Dacheng in the envious, jealous and hateful eyes of the hundred officials.

……

In the upper study, Emperor Yuan Hong had just sat down behind the rosewood inlaid desk when he saw the eunuch carrying two locked boxes in.

Xie Dongli pointed to the two boxes and said, "Your Majesty, all the things that the minister found when he went to the Jiangnan Gongyuan this time are all in it." ”

"Open."

Xie Dongli took out the key and handed it to the eunuch.

The eunuch opened the two boxes, revealing two stacks of books neatly stacked inside.

"Your Majesty, this box on the left is the 'Confucius Spectrum' copied by the minister from the Jiangnan Gongyuan! And the box on the right is the list of scholars in Jinling City in the past ten years. Xie Dongli said, pointing to his own recital, and said: "The excerpts in the minister's recital are the rankings and 'Kong Fang Spectrum' of the Spring Scholars two years ago. You can see at a glance that the two are a perfect match, and neither is bad! ”

Hole square, money also.

Kong Fangpu, of course, is the ranking of giving money.

Whoever gives the most money will be at the front.

Emperor Yuan Hong's white and fat round face twitched twice, gritted his teeth and said, "Xie Donglian, do you know this matter, what kind of big waves are going to be set off?!" ”

"Of course you know." Xie Dongli bowed his head calmly, "Forty percent of the officials in the DPRK and China are on this 'Kong Fang spectrum'. ”

"Forty percent?" Prime Minister Shen Dacheng smacked his tongue, "So many?!" That's going to shake the foundation of my Eastern Yuan Kingdom! ”

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Shen Dacheng, there is one more thing. In addition to this 'Kong Fang spectrum', the minister also found out that among the forty percent of the officials, about sixty percent of them were originally from the Northern Qi Dynasty. After these people became officials, they wantonly borrowed silver from our Dongyuan treasury and moved the silver to honor the Northern Qi! Xie Dongli was silent, and threw out another big killing weapon!

Prime Minister Shen Dacheng sighed, cast an appreciative look at Xie Dongli, turned his head to Emperor Yuanhong and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has always felt that the treasury and accounts of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom do not match, and there is a problem, and he has also talked about this matter with His Majesty many times. His Majesty always said that there was no basis for empty words, and he could not be counted. Now that the evidence is conclusive, you can't be more tolerant. ”

Emperor Yuanhong looked at the box of "Kong Fangpu" fixedly, and said in a deep voice: "Xie Aiqing, this kind of thing can't be talked about. - How did you get these things? ”

If these "Kong Fang Spectrum" are true, the other party will definitely treasure the secrets, how can it be so easy for people to get it?

Xie Dongli had already prepared and said, "It's Your Majesty." The minister went to the Jiangnan Gongyuan to inspect, and encountered a thief who stole the home of the head of the Jinling City Gongyuan, and then the thief ran away, and the thief was taken and sent to the main hall of the prefect of Jinling City, which happened to be seen by the minister. The minister was curious for a while, opened it and looked at it, but saw that the ranking recorded in the top book was very close to the list of scholars in the previous imperial examination. Chen is a jinshi in the previous subject, and he is familiar with the name and rank of the same year. By chance, the minister didn't want to alarm the officials up and down Jinling City, let alone return to the capital without his life, so he ordered his henchmen to 'shun' the two boxes of thieves again. As he spoke, Xie Dongli bowed deeply and said, "The minister also made a small move, please punish Your Majesty." ”
