Frankly speaking, this old master was very good-looking when he was young, with both talent and morality, and he was quite a woman in Jishui City! Although he looks white and delicate, he is not the kind of romantic gentleman who plays with flowers, but a typical traditional literati! Not only is his temper smelly and hard, but his eyes can't tolerate a little sand! All his life, he is willing to be poor, he does not love floating wealth and does not like fame, he only seeks peace of mind.

With his stinky temper, if he hadn't been teaching and educating people in Jishui City for decades, and his folk reputation and Shilin's reputation were all blameless, I am afraid that he would have died a long time ago!

However, this time is different from the past, at present, the Qin Yan Southern Kangqiang army is pressing, and the building of the Northern Yan Dynasty will fall; And this brutal woman is no longer afraid that his disciples who have a "great talent" will come back to find trouble for themselves!

So, she tore open her thin throat, pointed at the old master's nose and scolded:

"Phew! You old immortal dog thing, you dare to lick your face and fart in front of the old lady! The folks in our water city have one count, who doesn't know your stinky bottom! Drink...... Bah! A man and a woman who is full of benevolence and morality, and has a belly! The old lady has a father and a mother and is virtuous, and she doesn't like to pay attention to the dead! So you and the blind widow on Ganquan Street, we won't mention it today! But the villagers pondered that his eldest son had been out for three years, and when he came back, his son was two years old! You old dog, you even did the thing of picking up dust and climbing over the wall, and you licked an old face to tell me what righteousness! I'll your grandma's legs ......"

Middle-aged and elderly women in the north and south of the world, the habitual style of "reasoning" with others is probably the same. No matter what the central idea of the topic is, no matter where the two sides are arguing; Only three or five sentences of work will be dragged into "private morality" by them; And one of the most talked-about and tried tricks is those who have the relationship between men and women about the "lower three roads", and the peachy scandal......

So for these people, there is a shadow to say, and there is no shadow to talk about! As long as the originally serious and serious issues are turned into a rumor-mongering conference, then they will be like fish in water and can display their life's strengths!

Xiucai met soldiers, and he couldn't explain reason; It's the same when I meet that unreasonable and brutal woman. After this woman's baseless slander, this innocent and honest old master was angry and his face turned red and trembled; However, he couldn't think of where to refute the other party......

Because this didn't even say a word of truth in her mouth, from beginning to end! It's really a trick to win!

The interested eyes of the villagers are like thorns in their backs; The gossip is like a sharp knife; He trembled and stretched out his dry fingers, pointed at the tip of the woman's nose and shook it repeatedly for a long time, before he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth:

"You, you, you...... Insulting and degrading ......"

"Sven? Phew! Look down, your trouser belt doesn't know if it fell on the old widow's kang, what are you talking about with the old lady? At such an age, it's not too toothy! Hey, if I were you, I'd be drowning headlong into a urine bucket and drenching myself to death! ”

"I, I, I...... Burst!!! ”

Finally, the old master was so angry that he opened his mouth and spurted out a puddle of blood, splashing the's head and face! Rao is the other party hit the streets, scolded all over the alleys, and was also stunned by this blood arrow! However, as soon as she saw the other party fall to the ground, the corners of her mouth immediately outlined a sneer of a philistine, pointed to the old master who was covered with blood and angry eyes, and continued to the villagers who were watching the excitement:

"Old and young masters, you have seen this with your own eyes! He was told that he was short, and he couldn't wipe his face and pretended to be dizzy! ……”

Seeing that the situation had been firmly controlled by this woman, Governor Xiao Ji was in a hurry on the surface, but he secretly picked two big fingers in his heart: with the help of this "mighty" woman like the "God of War", no matter how much silver taels it spent, it would be worth the money!

Soon, those women who received the money did their best to bewitch and boast; After a pretentious performance, Governor Xiao Ji could only be "coerced by public opinion", and reluctantly held the official seal in his hand, and begged to surrender to the Qinnan coalition army who were not at all clueless......

And the upright and innocent old master, and the righteous servant Ji De, who was willing to save the Lord with his life, were able to sleep in the land of Ludong......

Heroes will wither, only villains can survive; This is the only result of the war.

Because of the current Northern Yan Dynasty, only Jizhou and Ludong remain in their hands. Therefore, the news of the "city destruction and defeat" on the side of Jishui City also quickly spread to Yanjing City.

Wang Fang's red crow, in terms of business level, is not as good as the spies who listen to the truth; In terms of the scale of the number of people, it is not as reckless as the rivers and lakes. So the news they can bring to Jingzhong is just a result.

Ji Qin, the new governor of Ludong, led nearly 10,000 soldiers and civilians, etc., and hundreds of thousands of Qinnan allied troops to fight bloodily under Jishui City. In this battle, the Jishui army and civilians fought to the last soldier and 8,000 city guards were killed in the wilderness; In order to protect the people, the governor Ji Qin had to send a Jishui people to deliver the news to Chiwu when the city was broken; In the future, when the king's division goes south and recovers the country, Ji Qin will definitely lead the people of Jishui to join forces with the outside and deal a defective blow to the enemy; At that time, he will also die in battle in front of the battle, in order to show his heart and repay His Majesty's grace in case of emergency.

Frankly speaking, this statement is really tenable for Emperor Tianyou and the two prime ministers. First of all, nearly 10,000 soldiers and civilians died on the battlefield, which is ironclad evidence that the Chiwu spies saw with their own eyes and cannot be faked; And for the Shengdou people in Jishui City, survival is the first priority, and they can't expect them to fight to the death with the Qin Yan coalition army......

Therefore, although the result was all surrender, Luojing Chen Shijie did not fire an arrow or hit it for a while, so he directly defected; And Ji Qin fought to the last soldier, and even his own old slave who was over seventy years old had died on the battlefield; From a human point of view, he has done it to the extreme.

And more importantly, in order to protect the people, Ji Qin decided to temporarily endure the humiliation of his crotch, and the credibility is also very high. Don't mention anything else, just say that his son Ji Lin, after the dispersal of the dynasty, hung the seal in the hall, brought the whole family of 13 old and young, dressed in criminal clothes, and shackles, and waited for His Majesty in the mansion......

In addition to Ji Qin's father and mother, there is also a wife and two concubines, and four children are among them; The Northern Yan Dynasty held all of Ji Qin's family; If there is really a day to recover Lu Dong in the future, I am not afraid that he will backtrack!

However, after Emperor Youyou read Chiwu's arrival report, he only sneered, and threw it in front of Cai Xi casually:

"Cai Xi, take a good look! This is the disciple you taught! This is my son! ”

Cai Xi did not look at the Baobao, but immediately knelt on the ground, shouted "The old minister is guilty" in his mouth, and knocked his head with a bang; Wang Fang picked it up and read it quickly, and also sighed and shook his head, and didn't say anything.

Whether Ji Lin is a clean official or a faint official, and whose slave Ji Qin is, this kind of thing is simply self-evident for the three top smart people in Beiyan. Therefore, the prince thought he was smart, and threw out the Ji family's father and son's move to survive, although it seemed seamless; But in the eyes of these three old foxes, there is no secret at all.

This is a very stupid, naïve, and ungrateful move.

As Emperor Tianyou was silent, there was also an eerie and cold atmosphere in the imperial study in the middle of summer; Only Cai Xi kept kowtowing and begging, making a sound of "knock, knock, knock......

"That's it...... If you don't raise your godfather, the prince has today's mistakes, and as a father, I can't escape the blame after all. Cai Xi, you get up first. Wang Fang, how are the rumors in the capital that I asked you to visit before, how is it going now? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, although there is conclusive evidence in this matter...... But the old minister thinks that it is not appropriate to pursue it now. ”

Emperor Tianyou frowned and thought for a while, then turned his head again, looked at Cai Xi, whose forehead was dripping with blood, and asked in a playful tone:

Cai Youxiang ...... You know this very well, right? ”

“…… Lao Chen...... The old minister is guilty......"

Zhou Yuanqing waved his hand weakly and sighed deeply; Then he looked out the window and at the lush summer landscape in the garden......

"You say...... The world is so vast and the rivers and mountains are so beautiful; The scorching sun is strong again, and it is difficult to hide the light of the stars; No matter how long the harsh winter is, it is difficult to reach the scorching summer sun...... He is about to conquer the sea, but why can't he tolerate people? ”

In the afternoon, Luo Yuan, the prefect of Yanjing, together with four large internal supervisors and twenty imperial forest soldiers, was ordered to go to Shangshu Mansion on an errand.

Ji Pu, the current chief housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion, is the only son of the old housekeeper Ji De, and he can be regarded as half of the family of Shangshu Mansion. When Governor Luo and others came, this son was also dressed in a sin garment and knelt down under the porch.

"Your Majesty has a decree, and the guilty minister Ji Lin has come to listen to the hadith."

"Please wait a while, the four fathers-in-law, and the villain will go back to report."

Half an hour later, the thirteen members of the Ji Mansion knelt neatly in the garden. A middle-aged eunuch counted the number of people, and then cleared his sharp voice and said:

"Your Majesty has a will, the criminal minister Ji Qin is greedy for life and afraid of death, and yesterday he betrayed the country and defected to the enemy in front of the battle, committing the heinous crime of the nine clans; However, His Majesty treats people with leniency and is grateful for Ji Lin's many years of hard work for the country, and Gu Er allows him to be treated lightly. Ji Lin and his wife had no way to teach their children, and they were indulged in pampering in the past, and now they are finally implicated and convicted by their rebels, and they have nothing to do with others. , gave a piece of white silk and eight glasses of wine to comfort Ji Lin's hard work for half a lifetime. ”

With a fluttering word, he didn't even have a formal holy decree, and the Ji family collapsed. In addition to the three daughters who were sent to the Ministry of Teaching, and the only son under his knees who was sold into slavery by the official tooth pawn; The remaining nine ended up with death.

After the internal supervisor announced his decree, Ji Lin, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, didn't even say a word, and fell directly to the ground and fainted!

Although Governor Xiao Ji is a scholar, Ji Dashangshu is not an orthodox literati. When Ji Lin was young, he was just a skilled craftsman; was valued by Cai Xi by chance and vigorously promoted; Since then, with outstanding craftsmanship and professional vision, he has been able to rise step by step; In his forties, he has already served as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, which can be described as a prosperous and smooth sail......
