Chapter 253: Prime Minister's Punching Bag
This night, the Xuandao Hall was brightly lit, and a large number of young heroes and heroines were drunk. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the little fat man and Li Chongming who followed Nuo Nuo over, because the fight did not come out with a result, they started to drink, and in the end they were both drunk and unconscious.
This night, Wu Desi was brightly lit, because of the bald man brought by Yue Ying, Shen Zheng and Han Yu completely turned their faces into a quarrel, but Yue Ying stood there without persuasion, but in the end, they still had to "put the overall situation first" and swallow their anger to try together.
On this night, the General Arrest Department of the Criminal Department was dispatched urgently, and the city was full of ropes, and finally the prison was filled with people who claimed to be from Wu Desi.
In short, for the common people, this night is a carnival that never sleeps, but for dignitaries, those who are closed to the news can still sleep peacefully, but everyone who gets the news is keenly aware that another great storm has come.
Although there is no curfew on weekdays, walking outside at night is an eyesore after all, taking advantage of the current bustle of the city, I don't know how many eunuchs are discussing with each other.
And Yuefu, which is now an important place in Jinling City, is naturally the focus of everyone's inquiry. However, the two gates were closed, and the house slave guarding the door had only one sentence to each visitor who asked to see the old lady Yue.
"The old lady has already rested, and no one dares to disturb him sleeping."
As for the one who wisely proposed to see Yue Qianqiu, the answer was even simpler - the ninth prince didn't come back at all!
The old lady Yue, who rested early the night before, got up early the next morning and washed up, and was naturally full of energy. Although the sixteenth day of the first lunar month still belongs to the category of the Lantern Festival, according to the general custom, the prime minister does not need to go to the political hall to order the mao, but he still took a sedan chair and slowly went out. When he entered the political hall, he found that Zhao Qingya and Pei Xu were all there.
"Yo? The two of them really dreamed of sleeping at night, early in the morning of the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, they were actually busy with official affairs in this political hall, they are really models of officials in the world! ”
Pei Xu was teased by the old lady Yue and had a stomachache, and when he patted the armrest, he shouted angrily: "Are you embarrassed to say?" Your grandson tosses the big thing at night, how can we sleep? ”
"Grandson? Do you mean Chiaki? Oops, I'm old, I went to bed early last night, I didn't go to the light, I really don't know what's going on. As she spoke, the old lady pulled out the chair with a smile, and then sat down, and then asked with interest, "Last night, when the lanterns were put out, would it be difficult for my family to rob the people's daughters?" Otherwise you would have to blacken my face like this? ”
At this moment, even Zhao Qingya couldn't stand Old Lady Yue's bullshitty attitude. He took a deep breath angrily, and said lightly: "Qianqiu and Yue Ying, the most powerful guard by your side, gathered a large group of martial artists of various factions, and took a guy who claimed to be Wu Desi and took people to ambush and kill those disciples of the Shengong Gate at night and sent him to Wu Desi?" ”
Pei Xu followed closely and said: "Du Bailou, the first-class catcher of the Chief Arrest Department of the Criminal Department, urgently asked the chief catcher and other first-class catchers, the city is full of ropes, and I don't know how many people have been arrested, and the city is full of turmoil, do you dare to say that you don't know?" ”
"Of course I don't know!" Old lady Yue pulled her beard in surprise, her inexplicable surprised expression was vivid, and she didn't care if the two old guys opposite her would be angry, "Qianqiu, this kid, when did you do something, you actually knew how to call Xiaoying, this little guy is getting more and more clever!" As for Du Bailou, what is he going to do, and what is the matter with Guan Yue's family? ”
When did your grandson not be clever, I think he was already difficult enough when he was seven years old!
Does Du Bailou have anything to do with your family? Who doesn't know that he will find your guard to compete with him twice in three days!
Zhao Qingya and Pei Xu were so angry that they all secretly scolded Yue Taichang for his slippery head. But this is not the time to fight with people, they are anxious to know the details of Yue Qianqiu's arrest - after all, there are two dragon sons and phoenix grandsons, Little Fat Man and Li Chongming, to help cover up, it is obviously impossible to say that the emperor does not know anything.
Could it be that after purging the General Arrest Department of the Criminal Department before, the emperor was dissatisfied with the Wu De Division?
However, when the old lady didn't want to tell the truth, let alone the two prime ministers together, even the emperor couldn't do anything with his attitude, so the more the two of them asked, the more the old lady talked about the hard work of bringing her grandson over the years, and in the end, she even took out her granddaughter's experience to share, which made Zhao Qingya secretly scold the fox, and Pei Xu couldn't hold back the thunder and rolled up his sleeves.
Seeing this scene, the old lady raised her eyebrows and said, "What's the matter, you want to fight?" That's a good feeling, I haven't moved my legs and feet in all these years, and my muscles and bones are about to rust! ”
Pei Xu was not good-tempered in the first place, but he was teased by the old lady Yue, and his clumsy patience was suddenly completely ruined. After shouting angrily, he pounced on the old lady Yue, who was a lot older than him.
Just when this political hall was about to stage an all-out martial arts, and Zhao Qingya was thinking about whether to persuade or let it go, someone finally heard the voice of someone talking in a low voice outside the door. Pei Xu subconsciously frowned and stopped his hand, but he didn't see the old lady shrugging his shoulders, as if he was not relieved, but still a little disappointed. Soon, there was a gentle knock on the door.
"The emperor summoned the three ministers in the vertical arch hall."
Pei Xu's face sank like water, the old lady Yue was silent, and Zhao Qingya could only ask in a deep voice: "Who else?" ”
This is prudence as prime minister. Sure enough, after he said a word, Zhao Qingya found that the scribe outside the door was silent, obviously he didn't think of this stubble, and was busy running back to ask the person who came to pass the word. It was a long time before he heard a voice that was slightly short of breath.
"The three prime ministers, His Royal Highness the King of England, Prince Jiawang, and Prince Yue Jiu have all gone. Shen Duzhi and Governor Han of the Wude Division went, and Du Ye of the Chief Arrest Department of the Criminal Department went. In addition, Lord Shang Shuyu of the Criminal Department also went. ”
Although it seems a little disrespectful to put Yu Tiancheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, at the end, Zhao Qingya and Old Lady Yue can hear it, the scribe outside is Pei Xu's person, from this point of view, this person deliberately belittles Yu Tiancheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, to cater to Pei Xu, it is not surprising at all.
As for Yue Qianqiu, it must have been put in front of him because he went with Li Yiming and Li Chongming's uncle and nephew.
But in any case, judging from the candidates gathered in the vertical arch hall at this time, each of the three of them knew that the stakes were very high.
Therefore, after such a short delay just now, at this moment, the three prime ministers immediately stood up, and went out one after another after getting dressed. No matter what their attitude towards each other is, whether they were close to fighting with their fists just now, but at this time, they strictly followed the order, Zhao Qingya was the first, the old lady Yue was in the middle, and Pei Xu was last.
The two prime ministers who walked in front didn't notice that Pei Xu, who was at the end, had a dark face, and his eyes were like sharp knives stabbing them in the back. It wasn't until he left the house that Pei Xu returned to his usual rigid face.
On the way to the Vertical Arch Hall, the three of them could not talk to each other. The little yellow door who led the way was Chen Wuliang's confidant, and he observed all the way, but found that Zhao Qingya and Old Lady Yue often talked a few words, but Pei Xu rarely spoke, and when he opened his mouth, it must be hard, as if the other two owed him money.
"No wonder Gonggong Chen said that if the political hall is to be replaced, although Pei Xiangye is the most noble, he must be the first to be squeezed down."
found that the old lady Yue was talking and laughing with Zhao Qingya, talking about several predecessors and sages who designed the palace back then, but there was an allusion in the words, and the little yellow door couldn't help but muttered in his heart. It wasn't until he brought people into the vertical arch that he stopped, and watched Chen Wuliang come out in person and lead the three civil officials who could be called the three civil officials with the highest rank in the Wu Dynasty into the vertical arch hall.
The three of them were the latest to arrive, and as soon as they entered the hall, they found that King Li Yiming was standing on the left side of the emperor, and on the right hand side, he was slightly lowered, not only standing Li Chongming, but also Yue Qianqiu. As for the others, they stood at the bottom, but they didn't distinguish between left and right. For such a pattern, even if it was not the first time that the three prime ministers saw it, Pei Xu still threw a fierce glare at Yue Qianqiu.
But the next moment, Pei Xu ushered in an absolutely unexpected counterattack
"Pei Xiangye, why are you staring at me? I've been busy all night, and I barely have time to sleep, so it's easy to clean up and smooth things out, and there is no credit and hard work, is it worth your glaring at me like this? ”
"You...... Huangkou Xiaoer, who has nothing to do, what was the good night of Shangyuan last night, what was it like to be mixed up by you, are you embarrassed to say anything about your hard work! Pei Xu subconsciously fought back, but as soon as these angry words came out, he saw Yue Qianqiu have a smug smile on his face, and when he found that the emperor frowned slightly, and the little fat man and Li Chongming had strange faces, he realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Just because Yue Qianqiu made flirtatious words, he didn't know what was going on and ridiculed him, which was really not calm!
This kid has always been as difficult as the old man!
Pei Xu glanced at Shen Zheng uneasily, but saw that the martial arts division that he had maintained before did not squint, and he didn't even give him a hint, and he suddenly chuckled in his heart. Sure enough, the next moment, he heard the emperor's voice.
"Qianqiu, how can you be so proud of the prime minister?"
The emperor glanced at Yue Qianqiu with a straight face, and saw that people should be talking, but he didn't turn his head and didn't look at Pei Xu, with a gambling posture, he coughed lightly, and then said lightly: "Pei Qing is indeed a little harsh about Qianqiu." Last night, he took a group of young heroes to set up an ambush and arrested a Beiyan spy who was making waves in the name of Wu Desi! ”
At this moment, Pei Xu was suddenly dumbfounded.
I think that Yue Qianqiu was in the name of catching the spy of Beiyan, and turned into an advanced six-grade product, but now he was actually hit by his blind cat and caught someone by a dead mouse? Those barbarians of Beiyan are too useless!
The old lady glanced at Yue Qianqiu with a smile, thinking that this grandson was really not raised in vain. He wanted to try his fists and kicks that were not rusty on Pei Xu, but unfortunately Pei Xu gave up halfway, but now Qianqiu took it and gave someone a volley punch in the face!
