Chapter 509: Officials and Honors

Li Yihai immediately understood that this person was the old bustard of this Qinglou. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He also understood that this old bustard was not very afraid: those who were able to open high-class brothels in the capital had the support of big people behind them.

Li Yihai's heart suddenly swelled with anger: "We are fighting desperately for the Ming Dynasty, and we don't have much money all year round; You are staying peacefully in the capital, and you are so well-dressed and well-fed! ’

Li Yihai said loudly: "In response to the order of Lord Yin of Tianfu, no one can stop the illegal act of raiding the brothel!" He said as he walked up again.

Seeing that they were so resolute, the old bustard probably gave a strict order from above, and she didn't dare to stiffen it, but she smiled with a hidden needle: "Master Ying Tianfu, if you want to check whether there are any private collectors in our Phantom Pavilion, you can come over during the day; On this big night, if you collide with the officials of the current dynasty or the children of the nobles, I am afraid that Lord Fu Yin will also be annoyed. ”

Li Yihai sneered: "The one who checked was the official of the dynasty!" In the seventeenth year of Hongwu, the emperor strictly ordered: it was forbidden for officials of the current dynasty to linger in brothels. We are here to inspect on the orders of Lord Yin. ”

Sister Han Yue suddenly made a mistake, thinking that His Majesty had the intention to rectify the matter of officials and prostitutes, although she was very angry in her heart, she didn't dare to stop it anymore, and stepped aside to appease the frightened maidens and subordinates.

Inside the house, Huang Muling heard Li Yihai's words and said in a panic: "How is this good!" Although he told his father that he would come out to play with friends tonight, he didn't say that he was coming to the Qinglou Chu Pavilion! His family is very strict, and if his father knows about this matter, he will have to be beaten when he goes back.

Lu Chenglin was also a little scared, but he was quite calm, and said: "It's nothing, they are checking the officials of the dynasty, not the sons of the nobles, and the will of Emperor Taizu back then was also to strictly prohibit officials, not the nobles who have not yet become officials." ”

"It's just," he turned his head to Zhang Xian and said, "Third Brother Zhang won't be able to handle it." ”

Sang Chengbi also said: "Yes, Third Brother Zhang, what should you do?" Even if Your Majesty gently lets it go, it will be better to wait for the Lord there......"

Zhang Wen actually doesn't usually take care of family affairs, but he and each of his sons have said: "I don't care what you do on weekdays, but if I hear that you are doing something lawless, it will be a good beating to catch it!" Therefore, his sons never dared to break the law and discipline and bully others outside.

Zhang Xian himself was also a little scared. Although he has some skills, he is still young, and he has no experience in such things, so he doesn't know how to do it well.

Cao Shou'an's brain turned quickly and said: "Third Brother Zhang, you only have the name of the fourth brother this time." The fourth brother is not an official now, and he is about the same age as the third brother, so you can mix it up. ”

"It's just that after you go back, you still have to tell the truth to the old marquis, I'm afraid the lesson will still be inevitable."

The 'fourth brother' in his mouth refers to Zhang Wen's fourth son, Zhang Quan, who is seventeen years old this year and three years younger than Zhang Xian, and is not an official.

Zhang Xian thought about it for a while, and felt that although reporting the name of the fourth brother was inevitable for a lesson, it was better than embarrassing himself outside. Especially since he is now a serving military general, he may be demoted if he reports his name, so he decided to report his younger brother's name.

Lu Chenglin was relieved to see that he finally had a proper way to solve Zhang Xian's problem; But then he was secretly angry.

He invited these people here today, not because he had money and nowhere to spend it, but for a purpose.

Since Yun Xi succeeded to the throne, he didn't care much about the princess of the previous generation, many of the horses didn't have any serious duties, and his father Lu Xian was now just an empty marquis, and he was just a non-caring governor in the Right Army Governor's Mansion.

So both father and son were a little anxious. Although they don't care about anything, they also know that the court has plans that are not hidden, and they know that there will be at least a big battle to be fought in the northwest in the next few years, and there may also be a war against Annam, and there will be a small battle against Mongolia, but it may not be a big battle.

In these great battles, there will certainly be many generals who will stand out as the new nobles, and if they continue to be idle and unable to make contributions, they will gradually be marginalized in the future, and when his mother dies, I am afraid that no one will remember their family.

So he has been trying to make friends with the sons and daughters of the princes who are more valued at the moment and the people who have their own abilities although the family is a little outdated. Sang Chengbi and Cao Shouan are not very important at home, but they are more capable.

It was not easy for him to have some friendship with Zhang Xian, and today he asked him out to drink together, and at the same time washed the dust for Huang Muling. Although Huang Muling's father is only the governor of the capital, he is the governor of the capital in his hands, and it is rumored that His Majesty recently wants to appoint Huang Xuan as the left minister of the Song Kingdom, which is also worth befriending.

But Ying Tianfuya's inspection tonight ruined all this. 'Damn Huang Huai, it's not good to pick a day, I have to inspect the Qinglou Chu Pavilion today! Lu Chenglin thought in his heart.

A few people tidied up their clothes, packed up their things, and left after recording their names. Now they're not in the mood to have any fun.

I can only make an appointment another day. I'm afraid they haven't been in the mood for the last few days, so I'll wait for ten days to make an appointment. However, Huang Muling has just come to the capital, so it is better to pick him up early and wash the dust, even if it is only someone I have weight. Lu Chenglin continued to think.

After a while, Li Yihai came to this private room with two people. Li Yihai pushed open the door and took a look, and when he saw their clothes, he knew that they were the children of the Xungui family, and after a closer look, he immediately recognized Sang Chengbi. His father Sang Jing had been the commander of the Yulin Left Guard two years ago, and Sang Chengbi had also been in the army, so he knew each other.

Li Yihai subconsciously made a military salute, but immediately reacted that his movements were not appropriate, and he hurriedly stood up straight and coughed and said: "A few sons, at the order of Lord Yin of Tianfu, check whether there are any officials in the Phantom Pavilion in the court, and ask a few sons to report their names." ”

Lu Chenglin and the others saw that the leader who came in was a person with a missing forearm, and they knew that he was a disabled veteran transferred from the Twelfth Guard, and then saw him subconsciously salute, and they were more determined, and their hearts suddenly relaxed.

They are different from those officials in the current court, who have nothing to do with the guards, and the policemen transferred by these guards will definitely not sell their face, but those who are retained will relax when they are likely to be inspected.

On the contrary, their families are in the army, and they have a certain deterrent effect on the policemen from these guards, but they are of little use to the officials. So they relaxed a lot at this time, feeling that even if someone recognized Zhang Xian, they would not tell his true identity.

Sure enough, I don't know if they denied it, anyway, they didn't react when Zhang Xian wrote the word 'Zhang Quan'.

Li Yihai said after they all wrote down their names: "A few sons, let's go." ”

Lu Chenglin: They really want to leave, and they are not in the mood to continue to enjoy themselves now. But he heard that Li Yihai's words were wrong, and asked, "What, you still have something to do?" ”

Perhaps because they are all sons of nobles, Li Yihai explained: "Lord Fu Yin arranged for us to dispatch such a big battle, not just to investigate the brothel of the officials. ”
