The sun is thin, in the Hu Mansion of the capital.

Hu Zhe returned to the mansion in an extremely depressed mood.

After handing over the mask in his hand to the subordinates on the side, he saw Mai Yatang from the Criminal Department sitting in the study, waiting for him.

"What wind is blowing our Lord Principal? Is there any good news for me today? ”

Hu Zhe smiled heartily as he walked into the study quickly.

Mai Yatang saw Hu Zhe, but he knelt down at him violently, and said loudly: "Little Hou Ye, you must save the lower official!" ”

Hu Zhe looked at him in surprise and asked, "What's the matter?" Could it be that your dismissal was rejected by that Li Yanxin? It's impossible, he Li Yanxin doesn't have that much ability. ”

Mai Yatang shook his head and said, "It's not that it's dismissed, but that Li Yan trusted the trick and divided the group of people who hugged us together one by one, and in the end, I was the only one who was dismissed." ”

"What? How is it possible, you made it clear to me......"

When Hu Zhe listened to Mai Yatang's words, his expression of disbelief was written on his face, and he angrily pulled Mai Yatang up and said, "What are you all doing. ”

Mai Yatang said aggrievedly: "Little Marquis, I don't want to go down, but that King Xiang is so powerful, we know that there is a pit, so we can only jump down."

Now that the lower official has lost his official position, he also asked the little marquis to call the shots for the lower official. ”

"I, what can I do......" Hu Zhe clenched his fists angrily.

At this moment, two middle-aged men walked in outside the study, the one on the left was Hu Zhe's biological father, Hu Wei, the official department, and the one on the right was Hu Zhe's uncle, Hu Tang, the household servant.

When the two saw the kneeling Mai Yatang and the angry Hu Zhe, they asked together, "Zhe'er, what's wrong?" ”

Hu Zhe walked over, and after seeing the salute first, he clarified the reason.

After hearing this, Hu Wei, the secretary of the ministry, smiled at Mai Yatang, who was kneeling on the ground: "Lord Mai, since the criminal department can't ask you, you can come to my ministry in the future." ”

Mai Yatang said with a grateful face: "Lord Xie Shangshu's cultivation, Lord Xie Shangshu, in the future, Mai Yatang will be a dog in front of the Hu family." ”

Hu Wei shook his head, but said: "This Li Yanxin, I didn't see how powerful he was before, why is it that it has only been a few days now, and he has done so many earth-shattering things three times and twice?" has already stolen the limelight from our Zhe'er. ”

Hu Tang beside him sighed mournfully: "Criminal Department, in the past few years, how many people have we inserted into it, but in less than half a day, it was served to the whole pot by Li Yanxin, alas, ......"

In the afternoon resignation turmoil of the Criminal Department, most of the people who were in the group with Mai Yatang were members of the Hu family, and now they were stirred up by Li Lang, not only was it difficult for the Hu family to control the Criminal Department, but the years of planning also came to naught.

When Hu Zhe heard this, he was ashamed and angry, and he said to Hu Wei and Hu Tang: "Dad, second uncle, don't worry, he Li Yanxin can't be arrogant for a few days." ”

Hu Wei glanced at him in surprise, "Zhe'er, what can you do, don't be self-defeating." ”

Hu Zhe said: "Dad, you can rest assured, the first few times, it was he Li Yanxin's luck that was too good, and it was also the child's carelessness to underestimate the enemy, and this time, hum, the child will definitely not fail." ”

Hu Tang looked at him and said, "Oh, nephew, tell me your method." ”

Hu Zhe smiled sinisterly:

"Dad, second uncle, you also know that the Criminal Department has always been the most important of the six departments, and now, the triennial imperial examination is about to begin, and the security of the capital has naturally become the focus of the imperial court.

However, if after Li Yanxin took office, the public order not only did not get better, but worsened, and the number of cases in the Criminal Department also increased, then would his Criminal Department be reprimanded by hundreds of officials?

At that time, as long as my father and second uncle invite a few more imperial histories to refer to him Li Yanxin, saying that he is difficult to be qualified for the position of squire, hmph, even if the old emperor favors him Li Yanxin again, he will not be able to protect him. ”

After listening to his nephew's approach, Hu Tang nodded in affirmation, but asked again: "Nephew, your plan is very good, but what are you going to do?" ”

Hu Zhe glanced at Hu Wei and Hu Tang and said: "Don't hide it from my father and second uncle, in the past few years, I have met some people in the rivers and lakes, these people are very powerful, and they are not something that Li Yanxin can deal with." As for me, I plan to hide behind the scenes, let them go out, and turn his criminal department upside down. ”

"So, it's sinister, but it's also fun."

Hu Wei said, but worried: "However, the rivers and lakes are reckless, these people are not easy to get along with, Zhe'er, you have to be careful, don't be a fox, and make a fuss." ”

Hu Tang said: "Yes, if you want to do it, the second uncle and your father will not stop you, but you must remember that my Hu family cannot be implicated by that group of people, and cannot be dragged into the water by them." ”

Hu Zhe nodded and said, "At this point, the child is measured." ”

Hu Wei looked at Hu Zhe, revealing the care of an old father, and said earnestly: "You are also a person who is about to get married now, no matter what you do, the first step is to think of a way out. ”

"Well, father, don't worry, the child remembers."

At this time, Hu Wei suddenly sighed: "It would be good if you could marry the princess, but it's a pity that in order for the Hu family to gain a foothold in the court, your grandfather did everything possible to make a marriage contract with the Yun family, if you didn't have that marriage contract, you would be a concubine now." ”

Hu tangled aside and then said regretfully: "That's right, if Zhe'er becomes a concubine, marries Princess Guo'er, and gives birth to a child, then we will definitely find a way to make this child a prince, if this child becomes a prince, then my Hu family can share the world with the Li family." ”

"Shhhh

"Zhe'er, you're really sensible."

"Hehe......"

"Dad, second uncle, the child will go down to prepare, this time, he will be called Li Yanxin...... I can't eat, so I walk around. ”

……

……

"Yun Gongzi, have you ever heard the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai?"

"Huh? Fairy girl, what kind of story is that? ”

"Well, it's the one outside, who told me on the way here."

"What do you mean, I don't have a name?"

After eating, Yun Xiu and Hu Xian'er sat in Yun Xiu's room and talked.

Li Lang stood under the eaves and looked up at the bright moon that had just risen in the sky.

At this time, when he heard Hu Xian'er's words, he walked in a little angrily.

Yunxiu blinked and asked Li Lang, "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, what kind of story is that?" ”
