When the footsteps of the gentleman under the willow disappeared completely, Shang Yang stepped forward and supported Chen Xingjian. Chen Xingjian's straight waist went straight to him, and the whole person leaned obliquely against the wall, and the wound on his left arm was bleeding incessantly.

Shang Yang looked at the wound, tore a piece from the hem of his clothes, wrapped the wound on his left hand fiercely and pressed it tightly, and said, "In this way, I can only go to the ghost doctor." ”

Chen Xingjian's face was pale, and the blood flowing from his left arm wet the left side of his entire clothes.

"Can you still go?"

Chen Xingjian shook his head.

"I'll carry you." Shang Yang said, helping Chen Xingjian up.

"Wait, I can't stand up." Chen Xingjian pressed the piece of cloth on his left hand with his right hand and replied.

Chen Xingjian was left with his life by the gentlemen of Liuxia, but the blow of the gentlemen of the willows towards the wound, Chen Xingjian did not raise it at home for a month, and I am afraid it will be difficult to recover.

Looking at Chen Xingjian leaning against the wall, Shang Yang's anger had completely disappeared, and he sighed leisurely and said, "I just hope that before that incident, you can recover." ”

"Now in mid-November, I can." Saying that, Chen Xingjian struggled to stand up and staggered along, Shang Yang wanted to step forward to help him several times, but seeing his swaying figure, he finally didn't make a move.

"Let's go." Chen Xingjian leaned down the stairs and said as he walked, "I can do it." ”

Seeing this, Shang Yang also followed him.

At this moment, the dust in this small building is messy, and the blood stains on the ground are simply terrifying, and in the future, I am afraid that it will be truly abandoned......

……

More than a month later, Tianjing City, the Yamen of the Household Department.

"Wu Shilang." Jin Lifu, a member of the Ministry of Rites, held a document in his hand and came in from outside the yamen, and the sleepy guard saw someone coming in and was slightly sober. But when I opened my eyes, I saw that it was Jin Lifu, and I went into a trance again.

Wu Dakai was wearing an official uniform at the moment, and he was sitting behind Zhuo writing something, and he had a stack of account books piled up in his hand. After Liu Po went to the imperial city to make trouble, Wu Dakai's position as a scholar was already crumbling. Finally, under the planning of Wan Kefa, Wu Dakai fell down and returned to Shilang. However, because of Xu De's guarantee, our Wu Shilang not only did not depress you, but worked harder to sink himself into work. The emperor's wedding is not a small matter, and now there is no Shangshu in the Ministry of Rites, and his squire is undoubtedly a Shangshu, and the emperor's wedding is basically handled by him.

He hopes to take this opportunity to prove his ability. After all, Wu Shangshu is better than Wu Shilang.

"It's Lord Jin." Wu Dakai got up, and the two dark circles under his eyes were almost like smearing the bottom of the pot on his face.

"Wu Shilang spent another night in the yamen last night?" Jin Lifu handed over the paperwork in his hand and asked out loud.

"It's the same where you rest, and besides, the emperor's wedding is approaching, and we, as courtiers, should do our best." Wu Dakai flipped through the document and said, "What is this, the list of gifts to the queen's family?" ”

"Yes."

Wu Dakai looked at Jin Lifu and said, "Is there anything wrong with this?" Haven't you figured out the gift list at this time? Tomorrow I will send gifts to 10,000 homes! Wu Dakai's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"No, Wu Shilang, the gifts are all ready, but I think the only problem I have is the gift giver."

According to the practice of the previous dynasties, when the Son of Heaven got married, Neiku would also give a gift, which would be sent to the queen's house together with the gifts from the Ministry of Rites. For convenience, the person who led the team has always been a palace official. This time the emperor got married, and it was no exception, and the leader of the team was Lu Jin, the great eunuch who is now in the limelight.

"What's wrong with that?"

"Lu Jin, the eunuch, didn't know what he was thinking, so he excused himself from illness, and the emperor also allowed it, saying that he would let us re-elect people."

"Only now to re-elect people? This Lu Jin is such a bastard, and he doesn't know what to think! Seeing that his good plan was disrupted, Wu Dakai slammed his fist on the table, and the dozing guards were startled and energetic.

Although Jin Lifu has a Lifu in his name, he is not a character who stands up to the sky. He and a small number of people in the court chose a harmless survival mode for humans and animals, they would neither get too close to the loyal ministers led by Wan Kefa, nor would they get too close to the line of King Qin, just messing around in the middle of the two camps, and waiting for the day when they returned home. These tasks are like stinky plasters in the court, disgusting but unraveling.

At this moment, this Jin Lifu and the muddy method naturally came into play, and said: "Since Wu Shilang has a headache, why don't you ask His Royal Highness King Qin what he means, we are all subordinates, how to decide above, let's just do it." ”

Wu Dakai had a headache, but when he heard this, he seemed to grasp a little light in the darkness, and said: "Lord Jin's words still have some truth, I will finish the work in hand in a while, and then go to the Qin Wangfu to have a look." ”

When Jin Lifu heard this, he lowered his head, arched his hand, hid his merit and fame, and said: "Since this is the case, please ask Wu Shilang to bother more about this matter, and the lower officials will retire first." ”

After that, Jin Lifu withdrew from the yamen and left.

Wu Dakai continued to do the work in his hands.

In about half an hour, he finished reading the last letter.

The wedding of the Son of Heaven involves an extremely wide range of things, even if Xu De wants to be simpler, but the joints involved are definitely not something that ordinary people can imagine.

It's like the letter he just read, which is the book of the National Father-in-law's Criminal Department. The emperor's big wedding is supposed to be a pardon for the world. But Wanke Law is biased, saying that "troubled times should be used to re-code." "Where did the emperor want to talk to Wan Kefa, he immediately threw this matter on Wu Dakai's head, and let Wu Dakai and Wan Kefa have a war of words, but he didn't know where to hide in the harem to listen to the play.

For the sake of the face of the Son of Heaven and the tranquility of Wan Kefa, Wu Dakai can only choose to temporarily agree with what Wan Kefa said, after all, if the world is not amnestied, how much does it have to do with him Wu Dakai?

Wu Dakai got up and wanted to go out to King Qin's mansion, but he saw the head of the guard guarding the door, leaning on the door frame and falling asleep, I don't know what I did last night, I can fall asleep standing up.

Wu Dakai's heart was on fire, he took a document from his hand, smashed it on the head of a guard, and scolded in his mouth: "Sleep, sleep, sleep, you know how to sleep all day long, you rice buckets!" ”

The guards woke up and stood up one by one.

"Prepare the horse and go to the Qin Palace." Wu Dakai said.

The two guards went out to lead the carriage, while Wu Dakai stretched his waist and thought about what he would say later.

……

In the tea room in the front yard of King Qin's mansion, Wu Dakai sat speechless with a cup of tea. Xu Chang brought him in and placed him in the tea room, saying that he was going to inform Xu De. Wu Dakai naturally knew that his identity in the Qin Palace's Mansion could not be compared with Feng Tianshou, who came and went at will, holding the tea cup in his hand, feeling the jade-like touch through the Ru kiln, and feeling the tea slowly becoming cold.

"Lord Wu," Xu Chang came back, and said with a smile: "Lord Wu, please, the prince is waiting for you in Hanshan Zhai." ”

"Please let Steward Xu lead the way."

Xu Chang smiled and brought Wu Dakai to Hanshan Zhai.

"The prince is already inside, Lord Wu, please."

Wu Dakai pushed the door in, knelt on the ground, and saluted: "Wu Dakai, knock on the prince." ”

Xu De looked at him, moved his eyes to the letter in his hand, and said, "Get up." You haven't been here for some days, so why did you come to my house today? ”

Calculate, since the last time he came to the Qin Palace, Wu Dakai hadn't been to the Qin Palace, and at this moment, he got up and patted the hem of his clothes - although there was no drawing on the ground in Hanshan Zhai, even the blood stains that were made a few days ago had been cleaned up.

"Lord, I came here today because there is something that needs to be decided by the prince."

"Tell me what's going on."

"It's tomorrow, and there's a problem with the people who give gifts to thousands of families."

Hearing this, Xu De's eyes lifted from the letter in his hand, and the news was more interesting than the letter from the governor of Sichuan in his hand: "I've read it, didn't it say that Lu Jin was a eunuch?" ”

"He quit his illness, and he suddenly pushed it off yesterday."

"This bastard thing, a eunuch is a eunuch, a pure disgusting person." Xu De knocked the letter on the table, stood up, faced the window with his back to Wu Dakai, Wu Dakai's eyes swept from the back of the letter, and there were a few words that were too heavy and soaked in the paper, Wu Dakai threw it out, it was Bing.

"Tell me what you mean, who can do this errand." Xu De has been a little overwhelmed by the news from Sichuan recently, and his brain is not very active at the moment. People, it's not okay not to accept the old.

"The lower officials are soft-spoken, so they want the prince to decide, which is also the meaning of the Ministry of Rites."

Xu De smiled: "You are not a good thing, the Ministry of Rites is not up to you, you are the king of the routine?" ”

Wu Dakai was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and said: "The prince is clear, and the lower officials have no such intentions." ”

"Look at your little bit of appearance, these few words scare you? Get up. Although Xu De had a joking tone, the look in his eyes proved that he was very satisfied with Wu Dakai's reaction.

"What do you think, how about I?" Xu De suddenly turned around and said to Wu Dakai with a smile.

Wu Dakai just stood up, and when he heard this, he wanted to kneel down again.

"Stand, where are the bones so soft!" Xu De's words stopped Wu Dakai.

"The body of the prince is a thousand years old, this kind of thing ......"

"This kind of thing is very interesting, I can imagine the expression on the old face of Wan Kefa, hahahahahahaha."

Since Xu De had already made such a decision, Wu Dakai felt that he could get out, so he said: "Since the prince has decided so, then the lower official will go back to the yamen to settle this matter." ”

"Go ahead. Look at your eyes, I'd better sleep tonight. ”

"Yes." Wu Dakai thanked him and walked a few steps. Walking outside the cold mountain zhai, he felt relaxed.

It turned out that he had been worried that Xu De would abandon him during this time, but today, it seems that he is still a useful chess piece.

After Wu Dakai left, Xu De picked up the letter on the table again, and his eyes kept sweeping over the few lines. Two of the words are particularly glaring - mutiny.
