Chapter 241: Xuan Heng's Wish

Xuan Heng has been raising for a few days, his complexion has improved a lot, and his movements are already free, he put on a corset, stepped on the soft boots of Liuyun, the silver hairpin tied up his black hair, he was in good spirits, and his starry eyes were smiling, but he couldn't see that he was injured.

Tian Mixiu frowned slightly, still looking him up and down uneasily, and said worriedly: "Is it really okay?" ”

The corners of Xuan Heng's pale red lips bent slightly, and he said with certainty: "It's okay." ”

Seeing that Tian Mi was still frowning, like an old woman who couldn't finish, he couldn't help but smile and pulled her out.

Tian Mi followed him passively, not forgetting to talk to him about the three chapters of the law, "When you get there, you can't do anything yourself." ”

"They don't need me to do it yet." Xuan Heng responded easily and was in a good mood.

Although Xuan Heng is the main family, he did not arrive early to welcome guests, although the manor was contracted by him, and all specifications are also ranked in the grade, but what is different is that in addition to the welcoming waiters in front of the door, there are also rows of guards.

Thus, a strange scene appeared, the waiters were respectful and enthusiastic, and the guards were cold and fierce, completely polarized, making the guests' hearts go up and down.

And Lord Qinshi, who said that he had set up a banquet to thank them, was the last to arrive.

But seeing that outside the vast hall, a group of people came slowly, and the leader of the group smiled lightly, his air was magnificent, and a pair of dark eyes with a little streamer walked around among them and walked to the main seat.

This time, not all the dignitaries of Dezhuang were invited, but most of them were selectively invited. There is no Xu Tianfu, Yan Ming and others, but Liu Changqing and Wang Cheng are included.

Everyone hurriedly got up and spontaneously made a big salute and said, "Meet Lord Qinshi." ”

The corners of his lips curled slightly, and he smiled and said, "No courtesy." ”

Everyone didn't sit down immediately, but turned sideways and said to the person beside him: "I've seen Miss Tian." ”

Tian Mi returned a salute, "The little girl is polite." ”

Everyone sat down at this time, but after they sat down, this ass was not stable.

They are unstable. The above two people are very stable. Xuan Heng clapped his hand, and a waiter held the wine and food, and the fish penetrated into it, and the flowing water was generally lined up on the desk.

The wine and food. The color is gorgeous. Mellow and fragrant. Held by a delicate porcelain bowl, just looking at it makes you appetizing.

However, the magic is. No one has moved their chopsticks today.

Are you afraid of poisoning? Tian Mi blinked her clear eyes, picked up the chopsticks, took a clip of vegetables, and put them in the Xuanheng bowl.

Xuan Heng smiled, and in the vague sight of everyone, he ate calmly.

In this way, the banquet can be regarded as the official beginning. When everyone moved their chopsticks, there were singing and dancing to help the fun.

Tian Mi just glanced at the dancing girl, and then accompanied by beautiful music, she happily ate with her head bored.

Xuan Heng knew her preferences, and when he saw that she was not interested in dance and music, he picked up a dish for her and devoted himself to feeding her.

And everyone in the hall, how can they be in the mood to watch singing and dancing at this time? All of them secretly looked at the upper seat, and when they saw the unabastic posture of the two people in the upper seat, how could they not understand?

It turned out that Miss Tian was Lord He Qinshi...... No wonder He Lin Weiya didn't make it...... No, the Lin family can be regarded as in the hands of Zai Qinshi, isn't this ......

The two people who were struggling on the front line of food didn't expect that in just such a short period of time, they would be turned into a triangular drama of love and hatred.

But no matter how big the brain hole is, when the figure of the person in front of them crosses their minds, their hearts still can't help but tremble, and all illusions are wiped out.

Lives matter.

Time passed minute by minute, and everyone had no intention of singing and dancing, and they were sitting on pins and needles, but when they saw that the person in the upper seat was too attentive to picking up the dishes, and his face was too satisfied, they didn't dare to disturb him, so they kept holding back, and their faces turned blue.

I don't know if it's Tian Mi's illusion, she always felt that when she put down the dishes and chopsticks, they seemed to be greatly relieved, and then, when Xuan Heng finally looked at them head-on, that breath tightened again.

Xuan Heng had a smile on his lips, but it was not the kind of smile he had when he had just given Tian Mi vegetables, although it was still light, it had a little more taste.

Xuan Heng glanced at the wine and food in front of them that had not touched a few chopsticks, and asked kindly, "But the food is not to your liking?" ”

Suddenly, he replied in a loud voice: "No." "Where, where." "Appetite, appetite."

But he didn't stop there, but asked, "Then why don't you have a good appetite?" ”

The people were speechless and wanted to speak, but they were afraid.

They didn't dare to say it, so Xuan Heng said it for them, but when he saw him lightly hook the corners of his pale red lips, he whispered: "It's something in my heart, so it's hard to sleep and eat, right?" ”

As he said this, he lifted his eyes, and the light in his dark eyes shone brightly, like the light of a sword on a moonlit night, seeping into their eyes.

Their bodies stiffened, their teeth clenched, they struggled for a long time, and after glancing at each other, Liu Changqing finally got up and said to Xuan Heng solemnly: "My lord, the treason of the former tax supervisor has not yet been settled, and we really have no intention of feasting. ”

What do you think, Xuan Heng asked with a smile: "He collaborated with the enemy and treason, why are you in a hurry?"

These words were soft and clever, but they were choked at once.

Qin Shi This is this, directly forcing them to a critical point.

Ruan Tiande collaborated with the enemy and treason, what are they anxious about? Isn't it related to them?

Whether it matters or not, everyone actually knows it.

I don't want to be so frightened anymore, there is no one else here, Liu Changqing's heart was horizontal, and he stiffened his neck and said: "My lord, the lower officials might as well say it directly, there are delicacies from the mountains and seas at the banquet today, and we can't eat it, we just want to ask you for a medicine, a medicine that can cure this heart disease, you are very kind, just show us a clear way." ”

After that, Liu Changqing bowed for a long time, and the rest of the people also stood up and bowed.

Is this still called straight talking? Tian Mi looked at them and sighed that this officialdom is really an art, how many years have she given her, she can't sing such a roundabout and tactful play.

Her family Xuanheng is also a master of this way.

Tian Mi looked at Xuan Heng, but seeing that the smile on his lips did not decrease, and he did not look at them, he slowly took out a bright yellow scroll from his sleeve.

The waiter accepted the dishes and chopsticks on the table. Present the four treasures of the above room, and stand aside to grind.

Xuan Heng put the scroll on the table and slowly spread it out.

As this bright yellow spread, the people who were worshipping for a long time knelt down one after another, and they didn't dare to come out.

The bony fingers stroked the yellow silk, and the silk surface swayed with different shades of creases, and the auspicious clouds and cranes churned, like mountains and rivers in their hands, and a majesty came to the face.

He sat down. A faint smile. The dark eyes were a little deep, and after a while, he raised his gaze, looked at them and said, "There are thousands of roads in this world. Anything goes. There is no way to talk about the open road and the dark road. It's up to you to choose. ”

After a pause, he said, "All the way here, you all walked out by yourself." And when I came to it, there were only two choices in front of me. ”

He lifted the pen on the case, washed it, let the tip of the pen absorb the ink, and the hand holding the pen fell on Huang Aya at the right time.

Looking at everyone's nervous expressions, he smiled and said, "You all know that the things under my hands can make people live and die with a single thought. ”

He had a strong ear, and he could clearly hear the sudden and heavy gasps of the crowd, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and he continued: "In this way, your life and death are in the hands of the pen in my hand, in my thoughts. ”

When these words fell, the people below couldn't bear it anymore, and Liu Changqing asked in a rough voice: "My lord said that there are two ways to choose, and which two are you!" ”

"Whoever is involved with a traitor commits the crime of joint sitting, and it is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to spare one." The pale red lips opened and closed, but what came out was the words of the pearl heart.

Many people sweat profusely on their foreheads, close their dry eyes that are wet with sweat, take a deep breath, open their eyes, and ask resolutely, "What about the second one?" ”

"Article two?" He hooked his lips, but suddenly called an invisible person in the hall, "Wang Cheng." ”

Wang Cheng didn't expect that he would be named, so he immediately turned white, directly buckled his head and begged for mercy, crying: "Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives, lower officials, oh no, the villain has nothing to do with that Ruan Tiande, he threatens the villain, the villain has no choice but to beg the adult!" ”

This Wang Cheng really has no bones at all.

This guy, if it weren't for Lai Zaide and refusing to leave, he would have to spend manpower to go to Fuhua to invite him.

As for Mingjian, he is Mingjian, it is really too Mingjian.

"Wang Cheng, as a county magistrate of Fuhua, you left your post without permission and lived in Dezhuang for a long time." The king thought that he was going to beat him into the traitorous party, but he did not expect that he counted his crimes, although this is a crime that may be dismissed and investigated, but it is nothing in comparison, and he was about to rejoice, but the man said: "This is a crime." ”

Yes? One, one crime? Wang Cheng had an intuition that five thunders hit the top, and the whole person was stupid.

And the man's thinking was so clear, and the long and indifferent voice said clearly in his ear: "You have left your post without permission for so long and have not been reported, which shows that you colluded with the party, deceived the superiors and subordinates, and the cholera officialdom." These are two sins. ”

Wang Cheng was prostrate on the ground, his face as white as a ghost, and his heart as heavy as stagnant water.

The others were even more silent when they heard this detailed conviction.

"The third crime, you oppressed the township, fished the people, wantonly encroached on fertile land, illegally collected money, and made the people miserable, and the people were miserable." At this point, he was suddenly sharp, and as soon as his hand fell, the tip of the pen just touched the silk surface.

The small black dot on the bright yellow scroll made everyone's breathing tight, for fear that he would be angry and scribble.

Xuan Heng's words did carry undisguised anger, his starry eyes were awe-inspiring, his tone was cold and hard, and he asked in a deep voice: "Wang Cheng, you have a Jiupin county order, you have thousands of acres of fertile land, and hundreds of thousands of family wealth, you sue the official, you have to be an official for several lifetimes to accumulate such a family property?" ”

"Villain, villain......" Wang Cheng closed his eyes tightly and hung his head deeply, but he couldn't find a word to refute it, so he only slammed his head to the ground, "The villain is guilty." ”

"Wang Cheng, you have committed many crimes, but I can't spare you." Xuan Heng called to the outside world expressionlessly: "Come on, take it away." ”

Immediately, a guard came and dragged Wang Cheng away, Wang Cheng cried unwillingly: "Let go of me, my niece is a lady in the palace......"

However, no one took his threat to heart, but reminded them that in this hall, the closest to Ruan Tiande on the surface was this Wang Cheng.

Although Wang Cheng was convicted, from beginning to end, they listened so carefully like frightened birds, and they didn't hear the words bribery, collusion, and currying favor with Ruan Tiande from Qin Shi's mouth, from beginning to end, Qin Shi did not mention the word Ruan Tiande, so Qin Shi was ...... Punish someone as a warning to others.

And since it is a monkey, there is no intention of killing, it depends on how they behave.

After the hall stopped, Xuan Heng calmed his breath and looked light.

He stared at the tip of the black and white pen, his gaze was a little far-reaching, and he couldn't hear any emotion and said slowly: "When this official first arrived in Dezhuang, he once settled in a small village and chatted with the peasants, and he learned that the crops they planted were all the food of the rich and noble, and most of them were peasants, and their homes were only some barren corners. ”

Tian Mi looked at Xuan Heng, who couldn't see the love, and the scene when the two first met suddenly appeared in front of her.

At that time, he was arguing with an old man.

After many days, looking back, she can clearly remember his appearance and voice at that time, and remember that the young man said: "The old man has lived for most of his life, but he doesn't know that 'everything in the world changes for a reason, and the world is like a new chess game'. The old man is working hard today, maybe this fertile field is moved, and he turns his head and follows your surname? ”

Everything changes for a reason, and things are like a new chess game.

But it turned out that this was the real purpose of his trip to Qingzhou? It is not to investigate the corruption of officials, but to return the cultivation to the people.

Not only did she remember this, but she also remembered that the reason why the holy tax increase caused a catastrophe was precisely because the land annexation was strict, and the people had no good land, no harvest, and could not afford taxes, so they had to abandon the land and flee.

She remembered everything, but she was not an official and couldn't control much, but he hadn't forgotten, and he hadn't forgotten from the beginning.

The corners of Tian Mi's lips pulled a soft arc, and she looked at him, her eyes full of bright light.

"Wang Cheng is a small sesame official, but he has a lot of land that his family can't eat in several lifetimes." Xuan Heng's pen stopped there, and that ink dot was like a rest.

His dark eyes looked at the prostrate person under the case, and whispered faintly: "One person, but two mouths, what's the use of asking for so much land?" If you can't eat it yourself, others won't have to eat it, which will increase your injustice and reduce your longevity. Look at Wang Cheng, what if you are so greedy? Life does not bring it, death does not take it away. ”

That sentence will not be taken away, and the tone is still gentle, but it is like a morning bell and a dusk drum, and it suddenly woke everyone up - Lord Qinshi, who originally wanted them to hand over the money and property they had greedily?

Compared to fate, what is this bit of family property?

Everyone in astonishment looked at each other, and after getting the other party's affirmation, they kowtowed violently and said in unison: "What the adults said is that we think it is true." ”

Xuan Heng looked at them and asked, "Have you thought about it?" ”

The answer was unanimous, "Go back to my lord, I'll think about it later!" ”

"That's good." Xuan Heng's pen has been stationary, and suddenly the pen wanders the dragon, he writes with bright eyes, but he said lightly: "Wang Cheng has a few catties and a few taels of the official knows it in his heart, and the official also knows what your situation is." You know that the official will leave soon, but the official also wants you to know that although the official is gone, the eyes of the official are always here, and the evidence is here. ”

When the words fell, the pen fell, he picked up the jade shafts on both sides and flipped them over so that they could see them clearly.

The people at the bottom of the stairs saw the bright yellow holy decree, closed their eyes, bowed their heads deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”

And so, the dust settled. (To be continued......)
