The dark eyes flashed with tears, and the crystal teardrops slid down the soft pink and white bun face, the pink little mouth pouted high, and the small shoulders loosened slightly with the sobs, which made people look so pitiful.

Ma Du sighed and said, "Alas, don't cry, you broke your brother's nose, you are wronged." ”

"My brother bit me first!" Bi Lin stretched out her chubby little hand, with clear tooth marks on it, it looked like the strength was not small, but she didn't bite through the skin, but why didn't she have any saliva that hadn't been wiped clean?

Xiao Biao waved and yelled on the side, "Daddy didn't bite my sister, really didn't bite her, woo woo ......" and leaned his little head on Ma Du's lap, and the fine linen stuffed in his nostrils also fell out.

Ma Du touched his little head, "What's the use of shouting and screaming, you are destined to be bullied by others if you have no brains." ”

Bi Lin stopped doing it, and smashed the small fist raindrop on Ma Du's shoulder, "Daddy wronged me, and when I see Sanniang, I will sue her, woo woo......"

Ma Du heard the words for a while, Xu Xiaopei's mother-in-law spoiled Bi Lin, what a lovely girl inherited Song Shuang's beauty, and she was as lively and active as Song Shuang when she was a child, but at a young age, she learned from Xu Xiaopei a belly of ghosts, and when she grew up, she paid it back.

Stretched out his hand to take Bi Lin's small body in his arms and patted her back, "Daddy knows that you didn't mean to break your brother's nose, it's okay to do something wrong, but if you don't admit your mistake and wronged your brother for biting you, that's a mistake on top of a mistake." ”

"Hmm...... Well, I'm afraid my dad will beat me! Bi Lin leaned her little head on Ma Du's shoulder and rubbed her coquettishly.

"Nonsense, when did Daddy beat you, it was obviously knocking on me just now! If you are disobedient, I will send you to the palace when I turn around, and let Niang Niang teach you, and your palms and buttocks will definitely be beaten at that time! ”

Bi Lin was not only not afraid, but said happily: "Daddy, are you going to send me to the palace?" Great, I heard Ning Guo and An Qing say that they have moved, the house is big, the garden is bigger than ours, and there are a lot of birds and beasts, I want to go, I want to go! ”

"Okay, I'll take you to the palace when the eighth lady celebrates her birthday in early August."

"Thank you Daddy, Daddy just loves me!" Bilin happily hugged Mardu's neck.

Xiao Biao raised his head from Ma Du's lap and said aggrievedly: "Daddy is a child who was beaten!" ”

"Oh, doesn't the little gelding want to eat a cream popsicle? Daddy will allow you to eat another one today! Ma Du raised his eyes and saw Lao Liu walking into the house, so he said to Bi Lin: "Bi Lin took Xiao Biao to get popsicles, and one person is not allowed to eat too much." ”

Waiting for Bi Lin to leave with a reluctant little gelding, Ma Du handed Lao Liu a cup of tea and said, "What's the situation in the city?" ”

This unprepared empty seal case that came so suddenly, Ma Du couldn't stop it, but he kept an eye on the progress of the situation. Just after Zhu Biao pleaded with Lao Zhu, things did not get any better, but worsened.

Originally, it was just the chief official of the palm print who killed the head, but now many of the second officials are implicated, and they are punished with a hundred rods and exiled for thousands of miles. Most of them are weak middle-aged and elderly Confucian students, and there are not a few who were beaten to death on the spot.

Zheng Shili, a native of Ninghai, Zhejiang, wrote to Lao Zhu, and sprinkled nearly 10,000 words to tell the details of the empty seal, pointing out that the matter of the empty seal was an expedient measure and there was no suspicion of abuse of power, and pleaded for hundreds of people, including his brother, and all civil officials echoed it.

Lao Zhu still punished the two brothers to Jiangpu to serve in labor, and no one in the court dared to intercede for the matter of the empty seal, and even Liu Ji, who had always been the strongest, began to die down, because the Jinyi Wei Yushitai found the official document of the empty seal.

If it is excusable that the yamen in charge of civil affairs has an empty seal, then the matter that the imperial history platform also has an empty seal in the noble yamen is really unspeakable, several imperial histories with seals were quickly killed, and the brocade guards were also quickly stationed in various yamen, Lao Zhu put on a posture of killing the empty seal, and the empty seal case was like a snowball that seemed to be rolling bigger and bigger, and everyone in the court was in danger.

Lao Liu drank the tea cleanly, put down the tea bowl and said: "What can happen in the city, it's just a head-killing, there are ten today and eight tomorrow, the bluestone slabs are soaked with blood, and the soil in the brick cracks is red." ”

"That's all?"

Lao Liu lowered his voice and said: "I heard that Uncle Chengyi is sick, and he hasn't been on sick leave for a few days. ”

Ma Du asked, "Didn't you say anything sick?" ”

"I only heard that it was raining a few days ago, and I didn't feel good about the wind and cold, and I suddenly got up and couldn't get up."

"Oh." Ma Du responded casually, and was silent for a while before saying: "You are sorry for the hard work on a hot day, Lao Liu, hurry up and go home to rest, and go to the ice cellar to get some popsicles to relieve the heat." ”

"What's so hard, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the battlefield when I'm old, that is, I can run errands for Hou Ye, I won't take the popsicle, I took all the Mid-Autumn Festival yesterday The kid ate it, and I had a stomach in the middle of the night."

As soon as Lao Liu got up, he saw Song Ke hurriedly entering the hall, and when he saw Ma Du, he said anxiously: "Fortunately, you are at home!" Come with me, something has happened to the academy! ”

Song Ke didn't say a word and pulled Ma Du and walked out, he was a practitioner Ma Du stumbled under his feet, Ma Du shook off his hand fiercely and said: "What can't be said well, it's hard to make the academy on fire." ”

"It's more serious than the fire, there is a man named Yang Shuping who is going to enter the academy with a bunch of people, saying that he is here to check the empty seal case."

Ma Du was stunned when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile, "It's just right, I'll take a look!" ”

"You can still laugh, haven't you heard that the emperor killed a lot of people because of the empty seal? Xuanzhong, go slower, wait for me! ”

Ma Du ran quickly to the academy, only to see two groups of people under the archway are confronting, one of which is naturally headed by Yang Shuping Jinyiwei, at this moment he is not majestic in the other yamen, low eyebrows and pleasing to the eyes like a little daughter-in-law.

Standing opposite him were the students of the academy led by Zhu Xiaosi and Zhu Xiaowu, although the summer vacation was over, there were still many people in the academy. Zhu Xiaosi stayed in the academy to practice nunchucks, because Lao Zhu did not allow him to destroy the flowers and plants in the palace, and Zhu Xiaowu stayed in the laboratory to dissect small animals, or observe various plants under the microscope, he liked this.

Zhu Xiaosi was wearing only a big pair of pants on his body, with muscles on his body, thick body hair, and dark skin, looking like a little black bear with teeth and claws.

He used the black and shiny nunchucks in his hand to point to the archway above his head, "Yang Shuping, do you recognize the words?" If you don't recognize this king, you can tell you that what is written on it is the Royal Academy, not everyone can come here to do nonsense, and if you know each other, you will leave quickly, and you will not dare to hit your head with a stick. ”
