Qian Yizhi didn't know what happened last night, he only knew that his youngest son was beaten by someone who robbed the private room, and the beating was a small commander of the cavalry guard.

He could guess that it was his youngest son who had provoked someone else, but so what? It didn't matter, the important thing was that his youngest son was beaten.

The youngest son was most loved by his wife, so he developed the habit of being a gentleman. Last night, the old wife nagged with him endlessly, if she couldn't show the color of the broken household that killed a thousand knives, she would be with him.

Of course, this is not the most important thing, in the end it is face. A tree lives a skin, a person lives a face, if he, the son of Shangshu, was beaten by a small commander Tongzhi, and that person has nothing to do, then what is he?

Oh, maybe the emperor thinks it's just a fight between two children, just a trivial matter. But for him, this is no small matter.

This matter can't be left like that, of course, he can't just go to the emperor to theorize, so where is his bearing as a scholar?

"Your Majesty, the imperial envoy of the Imperial Procuratorate, Ma Wenyuan, asks to see you."

"Announce him in!"

"Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!" Ma Wenyuan lowered his head and entered the Qianqing Palace and knelt down.

The emperor leaned back and said lightly: "Calm down, what's the matter?" ”

Ma Wenyuan stood up and said respectfully: "The minister impeached Xiao Cavalry Guard and commanded Tongzhi Tang Ning." Last night, Tang Ning committed a murder in Juxianglou because of the private room, and injured more than ten people, including the son of the Ministry of Rites. ”

"Your Majesty, this matter has caused an uproar in Beijing, Tang Ning, as an official of the imperial court, was arrogant and rude, and blatantly committed murder in front of the public, which made the capital talk a lot, and the impact was very bad!"

"I think that Tang Ning was born in the countryside, barbaric and rude, and did not know the number of etiquette, although he won the first place in the military election, but the court should also pay attention to conduct."

"How can a rebellious person like Tang Ning, who has just taken office and blatantly committed murder, and has no regard for the laws of the country?"

"The ministers thought that the officials selected by the imperial court should have both talent and morality, and Tang Ning had talent but no virtue, so he could not appoint officials for the imperial court. Please dismiss him from his position as commander and acquaintance, and discuss it with the right thing! ”

The emperor listened quietly, and said with a faint smile: "Aiqing has said it, it's just two children fighting, when won't such a thing happen in Beijing?" ”

"They are all teenagers, it is the time when the spirit is in its prime, a fight is nothing, it has nothing to do with conduct, if the young people in the world are not even sharp, then how can I expect them to expand the territory for me and protect the country?"

Ma Wenyuan said unwillingly: "Your Majesty, this is not a fight between young men, but a court official who bravely beats the children of Beijing......"

As he was talking, a little eunuch came to the emperor's side and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites asks to see you!" ”

The voice in the hall stopped abruptly, and the emperor smiled when he heard it: "The Book of Rites? Declare him in! ”

Qian Yizhi entered the main hall and looked up and was stunned when he saw this situation, as if he was very surprised. Qian Yizhi saluted: "The minister doesn't know that the emperor is discussing with Lord Ma, but it's not the right time for the minister to come!" ”

The emperor smiled and said, "Oh, I don't know why Qian Shangshu came from?" ”

Qian Yizhi hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, because of a heavy rain, the Tribute Courtyard has collapsed a lot of houses. ”

The emperor nodded and said: "The autumn is coming, and it is also necessary to repair the tribute courtyard, and I will let the Ministry of Industry come out with a charter and repair the tribute courtyard as soon as possible." ”

"Qian Shangshu came at the right time, Ma Yushi just said that there was a fight in Juxianglou last night."

When Qian Yizhi heard this, he quickly knelt down and pleaded: "Your Majesty, there was indeed a fight in Juxianglou last night, and the minister's dog is one of the parties!" ”

"He went to Juxianglou for a banquet last night, and somehow provoked Tang Ning, the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Guard, and was beaten by Tang Ning."

"The dog has always been dull and honest, he can't act, he may behave at a loss, so he provoked Tang Tongzhi, and after the minister wants to find out the reason, let the dog go to Tang Tongzhi to apologize, and turn the war into a jade silk!"

"Alas, it's just that Tang Tongzhi's temperament is too strong, a little thing, it ruined the appearance of the dog, in the future, in the future, I'm afraid it will be unsightly!"

Qian Yizhi said that in the end, he had become very low, Ma Wenyuan's face changed when he heard it, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this matter has caused an uproar in Beijing, because a trivial matter actually ruined the face of the son of the Ministry of Rites, such a tyrannical and vicious person, with bad conduct, how can he become an official of the imperial court?" Ignoring the law of the land! ”

The emperor said lightly: "Tyrannical and vicious? Misconduct? I have the impression that Tang Ning is not such a person, I went out of the palace a few days ago, but I met Tang Ning, who had just entered Beijing, I chatted with him for a long time, and I had the impression that this kid was quite honest and simple. ”

"What happened in Juxiang Building last night? Why did you get suspicious? Do you know the details? Speak with me! ”

Qian Yizhi, who was kneeling on the ground, changed color slightly, it turned out that Tang Ning and the emperor had a relationship before, and they left a good impression on the emperor.

No wonder the emperor would appoint Tang Ning as the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Guard, and no wonder the emperor would keep the impeachment of Tang Ning in the middle, it turned out that it was because the emperor had seen Tang Ning and had a good impression of him.

What a stroke of luck! Qian Yizhi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the emperor went out of the palace to let this kid meet, and he also left a good impression on the emperor, which was simply against the sky.

Qian Yizhi also felt a little difficult, but after all, he only left a good impression on the emperor, and the impression can be changed.

Qian Yizhi knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice: "The minister also heard the dog talk about it last night, but there was a little quarrel because of the private room, and Tang Tongzhi directly punched him when he didn't agree with him. ”

"Although the dog has also practiced fists and feet, and has brought a few guards, where is Wu Zhuangyuan's opponent, plus Tang Tongzhi and a group of generals, he beat the dog and the guards violently while he was drinking."

Ma Wenyuan said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Tang Ning was originally a young man in the mountains, but because he was intimidated by the prosperity of the capital when he first entered the capital, he seemed to be loyal and honest. Now that he is the commander of the Xiao cavalry guard, Tongzhi has revealed his true form, and he doesn't know the severity, such a person really shouldn't be an official of the imperial court! Please think twice! ”

The Emperor shook his head and sighed, "How unreasonable! ”

Ma Wenyuan and Qian Yizhi were all happy when they heard the emperor's sigh, it seemed that the emperor was moved by what they said.

The emperor said lightly: "Go, summon Tang Ning into the palace, I want to ask him in person, why do you want to beat people!" ”
