The court is ups and downs, and the officialdom is up and down, just like flowers blooming, and the sun rises and sets.

In March, there was no thunder in the cold pool, and Cui Wei was smiling at the shadow of the stream.

There are only ten days left in the late spring of the sixteenth year of Wenjing, but some people will never see the next summer. Seventeen pillars of the country were beheaded on charges of corruption and perversion of the law, using power for personal gain, colluding with the party, and other crimes, and the first to bear the brunt was Wang Ze, the squire of the military department.

Different from the people's disgust with the rebellious ministers and thieves in the past, Wang Ze was beheaded all over the house, and tens of thousands of people shouted for him on the same day, and there was a letter on the bus asking for the crime of framing Zhongliang for the public pleasure of Huiguo!

In the past month, I have been decorating my injuries at home except for going to Yushitai every morning, living in a simple house, and serving Duan Mulan in front of the saddle and behind the horse.

Hearing the familiar sound of horses' hooves, I rushed to the gate like a loyal dog waiting for its owner to come home.

"Madame is back!"

Duan Mulan didn't turn a blind eye to me as usual, but laughed and said, "Husband, don't go out again in the near future!" ”

Does she care about me? I was in a good mood: "Madame, don't worry about me, can the spitting stars of the people drown me?" ”

Duan Mulan gave me a blank look.

"The people crowdfunded a hundred killers from Jairus Hall to kill you."

The 10,000 alpacas that have been galloping in my heart have already set up camp and are not leaving......

Duan Mulan raised her eyebrows: "What do you think?" ”

"We have no country, the people are really safe, the people are rich, the country is rich, the country is rich, and the people are strong, but the intelligence of the people needs to be improved!"

"After Qinglou Wang Ze said something like that to you and caused you to suffer less than a full moon, something happened to him, and a fool can think that he can't get rid of you. Moreover, in order to give you an official and a knight, the emperor has credited you with all the credit for the purging of the Qing Dynasty, and soon you will be able to receive the holy decree of the reward. ”

It's all a bunch of fools!

And the emperor is really a god assist!

Speaking of which, except for the shameless infamy caused by my own going to the Qinglou, which one is not related to him?

Tiansha Lone Star is because he destroyed Lejia, and the reason for his rebellion is that he let me marry in filial piety, and the corruption is not a side effect caused by him testing me? Now I have another stigma for framing Zhongliang, and this time I have been holding it firmly and ruthlessly, and I want to die!

originally wanted to hand over the evidence to clear his infamy, but he actually intensified it, and it also attracted the No. 1 killer organization in the rivers and lakes to chase and kill!

"Madame, you know that I have been wronged! I handed over the evidence, but before Wang Ze harmed me! ”

"What's the use of knowing? You still have to think about how to explain it to the people and killers of the world! ”

My reputation is already so bad, can anyone believe the explanation?

"It's useless to explain, as long as Madame believes me, it's enough."

"Whether you are a corrupt official or a rebellious minister and thief, you have nothing to do with me as a general."

However, it would be nice if Duanmulan's father thought so too.

"Le Wuqi, you brute, hurry up and get out of the old man! The Duanmu family is full of loyal martyrs, and the century-old reputation is all ruined in your hands! ”

Duanmu Nobuo held a black iron barbed whip in his hand, sat on the back of a red Mongolian horse, and came to the door to ask for guilt.

Now the subordinates of Huiguo Mansion are all married with Duanmulan, and when they saw their master coming, they didn't dare to make a sound.

Duan Mulan heard the sound and came out.

"Dad, why are you here?"

She helped Duanki Nobuo get off the horse, but Duanki Nobuo didn't enter the door.

"I'll take care of your good husband for you! Happy and uninhabited! Why don't you get out yet? Do you dare to do it? ”

"Dad, you wronged him!"

"You've only been married for a few days, have you forgotten your father so soon?"

I heard Lian Rui and Tang Xueyao say that Duanmulan and I almost broke up with Duanmu Nobuo when they got married, and she didn't want to speak for me anymore, so she obediently stood aside.

I was like seeing a cat and a mouse, but I couldn't run, my fingers were entangled, I bowed my head and walked out, hiding behind Duanmulan, and timidly called: "Father-in-law......"

"Stand up! Wasn't you quite arrogant when you framed Zhongliang? Kill seventeen at once, you are so capable, what are you pretending to be a turtle with a shrunken head now? ”

I stepped forward with a hard head, and the black iron whip in Duanki Nobuo's hand flashed with cold light, more than three inches in diameter, and each section had a circle of reverse scales like iron teeth and copper teeth. If this whip is whipped on the body, each fangs can tear off a piece of flesh!

My scalp was tingling, and I remembered the pain I felt when I was hit with the board.

"Father-in-law, it's windy at the door, let's go in and talk about something!"

I immediately turned around, and before I could even step one foot on the threshold, I was hooked back by a horsewhip.

"I'm afraid your Lejia door is going to stain my shoes! Be honest with me, or it'll be this whip next time! ”

Nobuo Duanki raised the black iron whip that was grinning and baring his teeth at me.

Fight snakes and hit seven inches, Duanmu loves face! Although I was afraid, I did not give up, and I was beaten at the door, and I did not know what kind of people would be twisted into tomorrow.

"Father-in-law, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, although you don't recognize me as your son-in-law, but in the eyes of others, you don't think so......"

Duanmu Nobuo pondered for a while, strode into the courtyard, but didn't enter the house, Duanmulan had to set up tables and chairs in the courtyard and serve refreshments. I was still cowering behind Duanmulan.

Nobuo Duanki pointed a whip at me, like a deserter, and shouted: "Take off your shirt and kneel for me!" ”

I pulled the hem of Duan's clothes for help, and Duanmulan reached out and pulled me by the back collar, kicked me in the ass, and kicked at my leg socket-

"Squeak"

The clothes were pulled down by Duanmulan, and the spring breeze was warm, not too cold. But when my knee hit the bluestone pavement, I felt that my kneecap was about to shatter.

"Your Le family is full of traitors, the old man could sit idly by, but if you are married to my Duanmu family by the emperor as a son-in-law, you can't hurt the reputation of the Duanmu family!"

"Father-in-law! You drink some tea to lower the fire first, and listen to your son-in-law explain to you! ”

There have already been people who have made Qimen black tea, and black tea warms the stomach, but it is like adding fuel to the fire for a person like his father-in-law.

"Madam, let's replace my father-in-law with the West Lake Longjing!"

Duan Mulan was a little embarrassed.

"No need, the old man has loved Qimen black tea since he was a child, and other teas can't be eaten."

But if you can't get angry, my skin and flesh will suffer!

"The old man is not a stubborn person, I only came for the three whips, if you can give me a satisfactory reason for the three whips, the old man will let you go. The first whip, you and Lan'er married and stayed in the Qinglou overnight before the moon, and you made the city full of wind and rain, everyone knows, you made Lan'er lose face, how to face her soldiers, this whip, do you recognize it or not? ”

I am not wronged by this whipping.

"The son-in-law admits it!"

The old general raised his whip, and I gritted my teeth and closed my eyes. and when it is whipped upon the back, it shall be stripped of skin and bones, and it shall not be lighter than fifty boards. Although there is an elixir for Fuliu, no one bears this pain for me.

"Ah Qi!"

"Young master!"

Before I came out, I had asked Qiyue to stop Fuliu, but he beat the dog like a meat bun, and the dog took it back.

"Wait!" An unexpected voice, "Father, this whip is angry for her daughter, and her daughter wants to hold the whip herself!" ”

I looked at her in surprise: "Madame......"

"I said I wouldn't forgive you for that."

The iron whip broke through the air, the wind roared, and I screamed like a gossamer.

Breathless? I had an idea, I might as well pretend to be dizzy, maybe I can avoid the next two whips.

"The young master has fainted!"

"Ah Qi, why are you so weak?"

"Dad, husband, he has been weak since he was born, the old injuries have not healed, and new injuries have been added, so it's better to forget it today!"

I am grateful to my wife.

"Hmph, he will also lie to you, a stupid girl, the little beast will never get up again, and the old man will never get up!"

It's really cunning, and the bitter meat plan fails.

"The second whip is easy, dismiss the male pet in your house, and I will let you go!"

I looked at Fuliu, his face was pale, was he so unconfident in me?

I turned my head and looked directly at Duanki Nobuo: "If my son-in-law receives this whip, can he stay?" ”

There was a hissing sound all around, as if it wasn't me but them who had just been whipped.

"Ah Qi don't, I'll just go!" Fuliu fell beside me, like a weak willow supporting the wind, and Xizi held his heart.

"It's none of your business, get out of the way."

I pushed him away hard, pulled the wound on my back again, gasped, and asked again:

"Father-in-law, if I receive this whip, can he stay?"

"If you still have a life!"

"Okay, I'll take this whip."

The whip roared like thunder, the cold light flashed like lightning, and before I fainted, I finally knew that the last whip Mulan was really protecting me.

in the living room.

"Daddy! How can you really do a dead hand? ”

"Lan'er feels sorry for her husband? There are so many men in the world, any one is ten million times better than him! When he dies, you can remarry. ”

"After all, he is the orphan of Princess Chaoyang, the emperor treats him as his own, and if his father beats him to death, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain."

"When the emperor ascended the throne, he gave me the right to kill traitors, saying that he was corrupt and perverted the law or wronged, but it was not false that he framed Zhongliang, the emperor was blinded by the guilt of Princess Chaoyang, and he will be grateful to the old minister in the future."

"Hey, it's also false to say that he framed Zhongliang, and his daughter is a witness in this matter."

Duanmulan informed Duanmu Nobuo of the ins and outs of the matter.

"The sage said that great loyalty is like treachery, treachery is like loyalty, I have been an official for many years, and I have seen a lot of people who are treacherous, but I don't believe that great loyalty is like treachery. Your husband is still young and has not yet been determined, but there is no one who can discipline him, if we can guide him correctly, maybe he can become a pillar of the country; If we let it go unchecked, it will inevitably bring disaster to the country and the people. ”

"Daddy is so interested in him?"

Duanmu Nobuo sighed: "It's all my fault for teaching in a bad way, your two younger brothers are abolished, after all, you are a daughter's family, your husband is honorable, and your husband is damaged, I can't stop you from marrying him, I can only discipline you well and do your duty as a father." ”

"Father ......" Duanmulan, who has always been emotionally introverted, couldn't cry.

"Don't worry, I've avoided the deadly, and he can't die even though he suffers some flesh and skin."
