The sixth day of the second month, the end of the sub-hour. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Ruolan entered the room lightly, and first warmed her hands in the charcoal stove. Only then did he walk to the side of the bed, insert his warm little hands into Qin Lei's black hairline, and gently comb them back and forth. This is how she woke him up...... Neither noisy nor annoying, like the way she exists around him.

In the darkness, only the faint blue fire light danced in the charcoal basin, reflecting Qin Lei's quiet face, which was even more angular. Ruolan likes to watch him fall asleep the most, like a pure baby, without the unpredictable smile in the daytime, and without the lingering sense of oppression. It is only at this time that she can unscrupulously look at him carefully, appreciate him, and talk to deceive herself that he is hers.

"What do you think?" Qin Lei woke up very early today, and those dark and kind eyes were like morning stars, making Ruolan lose all of a sudden, and even forgot to respond to the prince's question.

Qin Lei saw that she was distracted, so he stretched out his slender and powerful arms, took her into his warm arms, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I've ignored you these days......"

A sentence was like a warm current all over her body, Ruolan hugged Qin Lei tightly with her backhand, and let the tears flow silently. Feeling the wetness in his heart, Qin Lei couldn't help but feel guilty. Looking back on the days of more than a month, he seems to rarely even give her a smile...... No language pales in the face of facts.

With a slight lift of his hands, he lifted Ruolan's soft body up, and the two faces were pressed together at once. Before the girl could react, Qin Lei's fiery lips were accurately imprinted, perhaps only the most passionate kiss could dissolve the grievances that had accumulated in the girl's heart for many days.

His kiss was soft and focused, without the previous domineering, without the previous demand, as if he were treating the most fragile treasure in the world, silently pouring out his pity and love to the girl.

Ruolan was completely intoxicated with this rare tenderness, even if she was broken in the next moment, she didn't want to destroy the tenderness of this moment.

Time is like quicksand, I don't know how long it took, the lips of the two separated, Ruolan lay on Qin Lei's chest, and gasped with a blurred eye: "Master, you have to get up, otherwise you will delay the court." ā€

Qin Lei nodded, stroked Ruolan's shoulder, and said softly: "When you are busy for a while, it is time for the spring flowers to bloom, and I will take you to see the peach blossoms." Ruolan's eyes burst out with surprise, and she said happily: "It's really ......."

Qin Lei said with a smile: "It's more real than real gold!" Ruolan had the courage to kiss Qin Lei loudly on the face, then got up happily, served him to dress and eat, and sent him all the way to the car before turning back.

With this joyful mood, Qin Lei saw Mr. Shen Bing, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said with a smile on his face: "Although it is a mule and a horse, you are going to be pulled out to skate today, but you are not a mule and a horse, so you don't need to be so nervous." ā€

Shen Bing didn't respond to the prince's unfunny joke, and his two thick eyebrows were almost twisted together, and said, "Half an hour ago, Your Majesty met with ten juzi. ā€

The smile suddenly froze on Qin Lei's face, disappeared in an instant, shrugged his shoulders vigorously, leaned his body on the back of the chair, and said indifferently: "If there is no reaction, wouldn't it be an insult to the reputation of the number one conspirator of Great Qin?" ā€

Shen Bing saw the indifference on the prince's face, and his mood was about to relax, but he saw him slam his fist on the wall of the car, only to hear a loud 'bang', and the carriage was even slightly crooked.

"Fortunately, this is a special anti-assassination carriage," Shen Bing thought with great joy, "or it won't be punched out." ’

After punching, Qin Lei sat on the back of the chair with his arms folded again, and sneered: "Sure enough, the dog can't change the ...... to eat."

Shen Bing sweated, and said in his heart: "That's your father, hey......" But he knew that the prince was dizzy and could say anything.

Stretching out the middle finger and index finger of his right hand, slowly rubbing his eyebrows, Qin Lei commanded in a deep voice: "From now on, the connection with the head wolf and the lone wolf should be more secretive, and it is better to temporarily disconnect the line than to be discovered." Shen Bing responded in a deep voice.

The carriage gradually quieted down, and Qin Lei also knew that this was not his own game, there were some bigger and stronger players playing together, all he could do was to try to protect his own interests, instead of counting on the mercy of others.

Thinking about it like this, my mood calmed down, laughed self-deprecatingly, and sang softly to the beat:

"There has never been a savior, and it doesn't rely on the Immortal Emperor,

It is up to us to create our own happiness.

We need to reclaim the fruits of victory and let the future break out of the cage.

Quickly burn that stove red, and strike while the iron is hot to succeed! ā€

Accompanied by the rhythmic sound of wheels, he sang the taste of the march alone, which made Shen Bing and Shi Kang on the side involuntarily attracted and nodded gently along with the rhythm.

Singing to the happy place, Qin Lei smiled, sang to the two and asked, "Who created today's victory?" Shi Dang and Shen Bing glanced at each other, not knowing how to respond to this strange but passionate singing, scratching their heads, so they had to smirk and say, "It's you, the prince......"

Qin Lei shook his head with a smile, pointed at himself, and then at the two of them, and sang loudly: "It's all us who ...... together" waved his fist and continued to sing: "Everything should belong to us, how can we tolerate parasites!" ā€

In the midst of the singing, the carriage came to a halt outside the Chengtian Gate. Shi Dang opened the window and looked at it, and turned back softly: "There seems to be a conflict outside the Chengtian Gate. ā€

Qin Lei let out an 'oh', glanced out, and asked an official standing in the distance, "What's the matter?" ā€

The official had already seen the carriage of the king of Longwei County, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Back to the prince, the scholars and the people have blocked the Chengtian Gate, and the colleagues are unable to stand on duty, and they are asking the Imperial Forest Army to help maintain order." ā€

Qin Lei nodded, got out of the carriage in a hurry, and walked unhurriedly to the front, only to see that the passage where he used to stand and work was crowded with petitioning scholars, blocking the civil and military officials who were waiting for the court. The Golden Armor Imperial Forest, which is said to maintain order, is lined up neatly at the other end, looking more like watching the fire from the other side.

When the civil officials saw the Fifth Highness coming, they hurriedly bowed down and got out of the way, and they were the most sensitive to political matters, and they had already felt that the wind in the capital was not in the right direction...... It seems that the south wind of the Fifth Highness wants to overwhelm the east wind of Xiangye.

Qin Lei didn't open the officials on both sides, but went straight to the front of the lifters, looked around at the lifters present, and said loudly: "Everyone, little king Qin Lei." ā€

The scholars, who have been half-dead, finally have a hint of brilliance in their eyes, and they still want to respect this prince who loves the people righteously.

"What you have done will be discussed at today's meeting...... Can you make way for the officials to go to court? Qin Lei said warmly.

The lifters were silent for a moment, and after a while, someone finally hissed: "Lord, we didn't block the way." Before the words fell, the lifters in front of Qin Lei turned sideways to the left and right, and made way for a two-foot-wide path.

Looking at the path that was more than ten zhang long and only allowed one person to barely pass, the hundred officials looked at each other and said in their hearts: 'Isn't this nonsense, who dares to go inside?' What if these hungry and crazy soldiers were pulled, dragged down, dragged in, stripped and eaten? They all hesitated for a while, and some people couldn't help but say, "You guys should let more ......."

The scholars looked contemptuously at this group of dignitaries wearing black veils and python robes, and sneered: "So that the prince and all the lords can listen, this is a way of conscience, if it is above board and clear, it will naturally be as easy as walking the road to heaven." Only those who are black-hearted and black-lunged, and who are greedy and pervert the law, will regard it as a Huangquan path. Do you have the guts to give it a try? ā€

All the officials were afraid, is this road really so godly? They don't know. But the densely packed and ghost-like scholars on both sides of the road are shocking, and for a while, you look at me, I look at you, and no one dares to come forward.

When their family members thought that their chance to perform had arrived, someone jumped out and said, "Master, let the little ones open the way for you!" ā€

Who knew that the official didn't appreciate it, stretched out a big ear scraper, and scolded in a low voice: "Stay where you are cool......

The companion was stunned all of a sudden, covered his cheeks and whimpered: "It's cool everywhere......" Seeing his master's cannibalistic eyes, this wrong fart had to go down aggrieved, I don't know why good people are so difficult to do.

A few subordinates on the side who wanted to be attentive were all reprimanded by the master's white eyes, and the big-eared scrapers and the like...... It seems that you have made up your mind not to let the family dog come out and bite people.

In fact, why don't they want to do this in their hearts? It's just that in this tense and imminent situation, no one wants to be this bird...... Who knows what the consequences will be?

Seeing that the officials were standing there like a competition, and they didn't mean to step forward, Qin Lei said in his heart: "Oh, I understand, wait for Lao Wen to come forward." I couldn't help but smile secretly, "I want to see how Lao Wen wades through this flaming mountain." Then he shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Everyone continue to coil, this king is one step ahead." ā€

After speaking, he didn't take Shi Wei with him, so he swaggered into the path, and every time he took a step, the scholars on both sides of the road would bow down and say, "Please let the prince pass." Qin Lei also smiled and nodded slowly. After a while, he calmly walked through this path of conscience.

He will naturally be fine, from the day he asked for the lives of the refugees and opened a warehouse for disaster relief, his name has been associated with the four big characters of "loving the people like a son", so to speak, where there are ordinary people, where is the rivers, lakes and seas where his small boat travels.

Seeing the prince walking over, Qin Shouzhuo also laughed and said, "This official is not talented, but he also has a clear conscience." Throwing his sleeves and learning from the prince, he strode over.

Even if he had a guilty conscience, he was not at all worried that these scholars would be unfavorable to him, and without his care and connivance, would these scholars be able to petition in peace? I was already arrested and put in a prison in Kyoto Prefecture...... If you can fit it.

Sure enough, the scholars also saluted him and sent him through.

After these two passed, another second-grade official came forward, looked up to the sky and said with a smile: "This official is the minister of the ranks, Lu Yanwu, who has never done anything wrong, but he wants to see if this conscience is accurate." After saying that, he walked in with his head held high, but he also passed smoothly.

At this time, who had been silent on the side, Wang Biyan, the imperial envoy of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, sneered: "Since ancient times, evil has not prevailed over righteousness, and we have all inspected the courtyard to show the righteousness of heaven and earth, and the bright light of the sun and the moon. After speaking, he and Wang Anting, the imperial envoy of the right capital, led a group of imperial historians, and entered the lifting array with great righteousness.

The officials said in their hearts: 'This old king is really a goblin, and when he sees a person leaving, he is afraid, so he is bold. Then they made eye contact with each other, which means, let's also draw scoops according to the gourd......

Who would have thought that the two kings were halfway through, but they were stopped by the scholars and instantly drowned in the sea of people. The imperial historians were immediately frightened, only to hear Wang Anting say sharply: "What are you going to do?" Attacking an official of the imperial court is a felony of beheading! ā€

A leading scholar unceremoniously contradicted: "Since you are the imperial history, why don't you open up for the people and expose corrupt officials?" ā€

Wang Biyan quietly dragged Wang Anting, suggesting that he speak politely, Wang Anting nodded slightly knowingly, and said as gently as possible: "Who said that we don't report it?" ā€

"My lord, we have conclusive evidence that Prime Minister Wen was corrupt and perverted the law and manipulated the imperial examination, why did the Metropolitan Procuratorate turn a blind eye and be at ease?" The scholars asked indignantly.

As soon as he heard this, Wang Anting was relieved, so he said in an official tone: "The imperial history report is about evidence, and for the head of the country like the Prime Minister, we must be cautious, and we must have ironclad evidence, how can we be like ordinary officials?" ā€

"We have presented the evidence to Your Majesty!" The scholars said angrily.

On the side, Wang Biyan smiled: "That's good." This time, the head of the court will ask His Majesty about this matter, and if the evidence is conclusive, he will definitely participate in the impeachment," he said with a smirk, "You better get out of the way." The scholars looked at the leader, and the leader asked again, "Is this true?" ā€

"This official is a dignified second-grade left-handed imperial history, with an iron mouth and copper teeth, how can he speak?" Wang Biyan smiled and said with a smile.

"Okay then." With a wave of the leader's hand, the scholars let go of the imperial history of the Metropolitan Inspectorate.

Lest these moves change again, the imperial historians walked very fast, and when they came out, they had already sweated white. Before he could stand under the city gate, he clearly heard the Fifth Highness approving and saying, "Biyan, awesome!" ā€

Lord Zuodu Yushi swallowed and could only pretend not to hear.

A military attache said in his heart, there should be nothing wrong with us, right? Even if there is something they are not afraid of, if everyone is in a group, how can they resist thirty or fifty breaths, and they don't believe that the Royal Forest Army will sit idly by. Under the leadership of Li Hun, they walked over in groups, and sure enough, they didn't encounter any trouble.

Only a cadre of civil servants under Wen Yanbo was left on the other side looking stupidly and waiting stupidly......

Qin Lei glanced at the serious face of the Emperor Fu Zhanwen beside him, and a trace of realization rose in his heart: 'What kind of trouble is this, it is clearly to establish authority for Your Majesty......

You must know that this plan was approved by Emperor Zhaowu a month ago, and since Qin Lei can go down the dark line, there is no reason why Emperor Zhaowu can't......

Finally, when the hundred officials were almost looking forward to the autumn water, they looked forward to Wen Xiangye.

The civil officials were like bullied children seeing their mothers, and they surrounded the old man Wen in the middle with a hula, and after greeting him with gossip, they talked about the situation in a colorful voice. Wen Yanbo sneered after hearing this: "Useless thing! I don't know who he was scolding, but the civil official of No. 100 was so scolded by him that he couldn't raise his head.

Wen Yanbo waved his hand lightly, separated the crowd, and stood awe-inspiring in front of the scholars, holding the purple jade belt with one hand, and scanning the scholars with dignified eyes.

Although they did not introduce themselves, the scholars could not hesitate to determine that this elegant old man standing in front of them was Wen Yanbo, the left prime minister of Daqin Zhongshu Province. That is, the greatest sufferer of the scholars, the person who will be defeated in this assembly.

It's just that no matter how much they hated it, when the man stood in front of them so easily, the hearts of the scholars beat drums. They involuntarily associated this person with a generation of power that had covered the sky for twenty years, and the coercion from above made the scholars feel more insignificant.

The momentum of countless people was taken away by him alone in an instant.
