Li Laigao's marriage was vigorously held and became a Sino-American talk in Beijing. In contrast, on December 16, Pan Heyi's family affairs were far inferior, and the Shangguan Jiang Anyi, Liu Yixing, and others of the Qingtian Division only sent congratulatory gifts, and Li Laigao ignored them, and other colleagues came to congratulate them in groups, but none of the supervisors were present to make this wedding banquet inevitably criticized.

Pan Heyi has made a lot of friends during this time, but most of them are petty officials of seven or eight grades, or they are "elegant scholars" who talk loudly, Ding Chu, the literary of Chu'an Palace, brought the words "good couple Tiancheng" written by the prince himself, which was hung high above the lobby, looking at the envious eyes of the guests, Pan Heyi finally felt that his wedding was different.

In the eyes of Pan's mother, her son's wedding is undoubtedly grand, and the daughter-in-law she carefully selected for her son is the second daughter of Tang Qiaozhi, the secretary and supervisor of the book (from the five products), and there is a congratulatory gift from King Chu'an on the wedding day.

When the newlyweds entered the cave room, the congratulatory guests dispersed, and Pan's mother counted the congratulatory gifts received under the lamp, and the silver taels alone were as high as more than 2,500 taels. Pan's mother carefully put away the silver tickets and silver, and with this money, she should be able to buy a house close to the imperial city, so that her son would not have to walk so far when he was on an errand.

Pan Heyi is generally satisfied with this family business, his father-in-law is a clear stream in the court, although the official is not high, he is quite prestigious in Shilin, and he also appreciates him very much; Although his wife's appearance is average, she is knowledgeable, gentle and submissive, and her heart flashes with Siqing's appearance, Pan Heyi self-deprecatingly wants to marry a wife and marry a concubine, but it is a pity to accept a beautiful concubine in the future.

Zheng system, the official himself married, gave nine days of leave, and the duration of the program was ten days. On the third day of the wedding, Pan Heyi went to Qingtian Division on an errand. Pan's mother and wife are very supportive, national affairs are important, and the year-end government affairs are heavy, so they can't abolish the public for personal reasons.

went to Jiang Anyi's official office to meet him first, and Jiang Anyi lightly encouraged him, so that he didn't have to rush to run errands. Back to his official office, the subordinate officials came to congratulate him, and in the gossip, Pan Heyi learned that Li Laigao, who was married a few days ago, was not worse, and it was said that he took his newlywed wife to the mountains and rivers every day, eating, drinking, and having fun.

Pan Heyi was unhappy in his heart, and made a straight face to let his subordinates be diligent in the king's affairs, and cleaning up the field was a major matter of concern to the Son of Heaven, and he should not be slack off because the New Year was approaching. After a lesson, the scene was cold, and the subordinates took the opportunity to leave, leaving Pan Heyi alone in the official hall and sulking.

After sitting for a while, Pan Heyi got up to go to the toilet, and when he passed by an official house, he heard rumors coming from inside.

“…… Originally, Master Jiang was very important to him, and he still wanted to marry his wife's junior sister to him. But this high-spirited person, thinking about climbing high branches, found a way to catch up with King Chu'an, and a letter of "Please Remove Tian Shu" fished out a seven-grade vocational field signing order, this time Lord Jiang looked at him unpleasantly. offended Shangguan, even if King Chu An appreciated it, it is estimated that he will not stay in Qingtian Division for a long time. ”

"It is said that Lord Jiang is not a person who is jealous of the virtuous and jealous, how can he give up the near and far to dedicate the song to King Chu'an, is it no wonder that Lord Jiang will hide his song and forget it?"

"You don't understand this, I heard that this letter was told to him by Lord Jiang when he was drunk, how dare he let Lord Jiang know about the idea of taking away Lord Jiang, so he went crookedly

Road. looks upright, in fact, a belly of men and women advocates, phew, what kind of play. Let's go to congratulate him kindly, he is good, and he teaches a lesson with a straight face, it is nothing more than to see that Master Li is comfortable, and he is unhappy in his heart, villain. ”

Pan Heyi was chilled when he heard this, and he really said, "If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do", and his caution was revealed in the eyes of others. The urine was gone, and Pan Heyi quietly returned to the official office to think about countermeasures.

There are cases stacked high on the public case, and Pan Heyi's face is hidden behind the case, and this usually agitated face looks gloomy. Holding an official document in his hand, he was thinking about the predicament in front of him, the cause of the matter arose, but the key was Jiang Anyi, and suppressing Jiang Anyi was the way to solve the predicament.

Pan Heyi always pays attention to the movements in Beijing, and knows the news that Jiang Anyi was rejected by the prince when he went to the East Palace, and the Son of Heaven has not summoned him for a long time because he is busy with the Northern Expedition. A cold light flashed in his eyes, since he tore his face, he didn't need to be emotional, after Jiang Anyi was assassinated in Hanjiazhuang, Jiangzhou, Han Jinsong, the head of the Han family, sent a batch of rare books approved by Han Wenzhenggong to Jiang Anyi, Jiang Anyi said that he would return the books after reading them, but later Pan Heyi noticed that Jiang Anyi brought these books back to Beijing.

Pan Heyi let out a suppressed sneer in his mouth, what a reputation Han Wenzhenggong has, Jiang Anyi actually dared to take the opportunity to bully his descendants, this matter will be publicized Jiang Anyi's reputation in Shilin will be stinky, if Jiang Anyi becomes a scum, even if the Son of Heaven believes in him again, he will not offend the world's scholars for him, and he will make some achievements in cleaning up the vocational field, and it will not take a few years to replace him.

…………

The Jingfeng Gate on the east side of the Imperial City, the Yamen of the Likuang Prison, and the door can be full of birds. Once the eyes of the public have become the ears of the deaf, so that every official in the yamen has mixed tastes, if it were not for the refusal of the Son of Heaven to dismiss him because of his face, the Likuan Prison would have closed down a long time ago.

At the beginning, there were a lot of capable people who entered the Li Kuang Prison, and seeing that the Li Kuang Prison had become a cold water yamen, the thirty Li Kuang envoys found their way and walked twenty, and the small officials below were borrowed most of them, and the hidden Li Kuang Jian became an empty shell.

Other people can go, the left and right eunuchs of the Likuang Prison can't go without the will of the Son of Heaven, the right eunuch Wang Kefu figured it out, anyway, the Son of Heaven didn't like him, so it was estimated that it would not be his turn, and he was happy to be idle in the Likuang Prison; Zuo Supervisor Wei Huaichao was dumbfounded, he jumped from the Imperial Historical Observatory to the Likuang Prison with all his heart, how energetic he was at that time, and even intended to seize the position of the party leader of Zechang Academy, but now he stays in the Likuang Prison and no one answers, and he regrets it.

After Fang Linbin, the secretary of Guanglu Temple, became the leader of the Zechang party, Wei Huaichao, who did not often attend the gathering of his classmates in the past, walked very diligently, and repeatedly euphemistically told Fang Kui that he would help him take up his foreign office. Wei Huaichao calculated that he was an official under the fourth grade, if the foreign appointment could be promoted to one level according to the convention, the fourth rank would be the history of the Zhongzhou assassin, even if he was a lower state assassin, it was better than doing nothing in the prison. After serving abroad for five or six years, he will find an opportunity to transfer back to Beijing in the future, when Fang Linbin is old, and he is still in his early fifties, so he has the opportunity to take over as the leader of Zechang.

Painstakingly finally got a response, Fang Linbin promised to speak to the prince on his behalf, and speak for him when he recommended talents in the future. However, Duan Cizong, the secretary of the ministry, was selfless, and Fang Linbin asked Wei Huaichao to do the best

Come out with some real deeds, strive to be above the middle and upper middle level during the annual examination, and there will be a reason to recommend it when the time comes.

Da Zheng's annual examination is divided into internal examination and external examination, the internal examination by the Son of Heaven directly on the examination of civil and military officials above the third grade, and the external examination by the Ministry of Officials to test the merits of the officials below the four grades of good and evil, Wei Huaichao's Likuan Zuo Jian is under the four grades, which belongs to the scope of the external examination. At the end of November each year, the results of the examination are submitted to the Ministry of Officials for review, and then submitted to the two ministers of the political affairs hall for review, and the officials are rewarded and punished according to the results of the examination after the year. It's December 22 now, and it's going to be sealed for a holiday in a few days, and the results of the exam are definitely out, and it is estimated that they have been given to Xiangye.

Since the arrival of Duan Shangshu, the Ministry has been purged several times, and in the third year of the Jianwu examination, the Shangguan Qing was corrupted for personal gain, and was directly denounced by Duan Shangshu as a man, and there were as many as 18 officials who were affected by the relocation, and now no one dares to do anything in the examination class. Li Kuang Jian has nothing to do this year, it is good to be able to get a middle level, Wei Huaichao has been sighing for a long time these days, but there is nothing to do.

Li Kuan made He Zhili come in with this official document, and said: "Lord Wei, you ask the lower officials to pay attention to any important complaints, the lower officials opened the copper box today and found a report letter reporting the Qingtian envoy Si Jiang Anyi. ”

"Oh, show it to me." Wei Huaichao's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his arm to take the report. This report is anonymous, and the letter accuses Jiang Anyi of bullying the descendants of Han Wenzhenggong and asking for rare books and manuscripts kept by Mrs. Han, which is a literary thief and a shame for Shilin.

After reading the report letter, Wei Huaichao pondered for a moment and asked He Zhili: "Zhili, do you see whether this report letter is true or false?" ”

He Zhili said quietly: "I have to inquire about the truth and falsehood." ”

Wei Huaichao secretly scolded He Zhili for being slippery, and when he heard that this prince was going to be transferred back to the Criminal Department after the year, he probably didn't want to offend people by saying the wrong thing. Waving his hand to let He Zhili retreat, Wei Huaichao stroked his beard and pondered, Jiang Anyi jumped up from the Ministry of Rites, and has been on it for more than ten years, it is impossible to say that he is not jealous, he has secretly dealt with Jiang Anyi several times, all of which ended in failure, and there are not a few people who fold in the hands of Jiang Anyi, there are Lu Jialin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Li Mingyi, the imperial historian, and Zhou Sihe, the young eunuch of Likuang, who originally had a good future, but now he is struggling in the small county of Qianzhou, and if he wants to deal with him, he really has to think carefully.

Picked up the letter of accusation and read it again from the beginning, the words in the letter should be true, Wei Huaichao thought that if it was to accuse Jiang Anyi of accepting gold and silver, it would definitely be a slanderous accusation, but if it was a rare book and manuscript left by Han Wenzhenggong, it was very likely.

After thinking about it carefully, Wei Huaichao had a plan in his heart, it was very likely that Jiang Anyi was assassinated in Hanjiazhuang, and it was very likely that the descendants of the Han family gave the manuscript to Jiang Anyi's ancestors in order to avoid trouble.

Jiang Anyi took the Han family's book, and it should be true, as for the specific situation, Wei Huaichao didn't want to care. Wei Huaichao smiled, his fingers tapped lightly on the report letter, this report letter is from the capital, most of the people who know about this matter are people who went to Jiangzhou with Jiang Anyi to clean up Guantian, then eighty percent of this report letter is from the hands of Ling Pan Heyi, the person who is in the field.
