Everyone followed the silence, turned to the front and back of the hall, and kowtowed to Nayu Ruyi together, and then got up to watch.

I saw that on the huge case, there was a brilliant crystal box, and the tray of rosewood was used in the box, holding a yellow, orange and orange jade Ruyi. "It turns out that this is Topaz Ruyi...... "The adults couldn't help but take a deep breath, and said in their hearts, "It's not as beautiful as the crystal box." If it were normal, they would probably appreciate it carefully, express their admiration, and then compose a poem or something. But now they are all hungry, and they are just looking forward to finishing a good meal quickly. To put it irreverently, looking at this yellow-orange-orange thing, it's not as good as a chicken leg kiss.

Silence said, 'That's what I want.' ’

So they said, 'It's really good. Then someone proposed, "This kind of holy relic is blasphemous to look at it more, so let's go back to the dinner table and sit down." It attracted the echo of everyone, saying that this adult understands the general situation and understands the rules, and is a good example for us to learn.

There is a saying that 'care is chaos', and everyone who was sent to visit was actually Xiang Zhuang who danced the sword and aspired to Peigong. Anyway, everyone doesn't have the blood of the old Zhu family, and if they wear a dragon robe, they can't become a prince, as long as they see such a thing. As for whether it is flat and round, or long and square, everyone does not care at all - what kind of attitude does everyone care about when they have such a thing...... Of course, it will only be considered after the sacrifice of the Five Organs Temple.

Only Yuan Wei and Yuan Shilang, who arrived later, still lingered on the side of the big case, squinting and carefully observing the jade Ruyi, as if he wanted to see the flowers.

Shen Mo had no choice but to accompany him, feeling uneasy in his heart, he glanced at Xu Wei who was standing on the left, and hinted with his eyes: "This old guy won't see any clues, right?" ’

Xu Wei shook his head and said a few words with his lips...... Shen Mo can't read lips, so he can only figure out what Xu Wei wants to express, is it: 'He is obsessed with gold and stone?' I couldn't help but sweat in fright, and said in my heart, I had to find a way to divert his attention. Then he laughed and said, "Gong Yuan, why don't we go to dinner first and watch it after eating?" ”

Yuan Wei didn't raise his head and said, "Don't interrupt my ......"

Shen Mo's face turned white now, his heartbeat accelerated rapidly, directly more than one hundred and eighteen, wiped his sweat with his cuffs and said, "I don't know what Yuan Gong saw?" "I really can't do it, no one will leave today, so I glanced at the iron pillar standing behind the screen, as soon as he spoke, the guards rushed out, tied up all these guests, and then ran away in the morning. He had all the routes planned, and first took the overland route to Dengzhou, where there was a boat to pick up the family.

For the silent question, Yuan Wei didn't respond at first, but after a while, he slapped his thigh fiercely and said loudly: "Haha, sure enough, there is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!" "I was so bluffed that my face turned green in silence, and I was about to send a signal with a ruthless heart, but I heard Yuan Wei say with joy on his face: "Thank you, brother, let me find inspiration in you, today's green chapter finally has an idea......

"Hey ......" Shen Mo almost slapped him in the face, he was so shocked to write a green word, what if he had to scare people out of illness?

Yuan Wei didn't care about him, and danced with his hands: "You are the champion talent, and Elder Brother Wen, you two great talents stop for a while, isn't this green chapter particularly beautiful?" Then he cleared his throat and said: "Gong Wei Emperor, concentrate on Mu, hold the surname Halal, do not say what you say, do nothing and the people are white, above the Emperor Demaixi, the age of the world." It is to the natural treasure jade, the color is yellow and yellow, it is the call of the gods, and the husband can be restrained......"

Seeing that he couldn't finish chanting for a while, Shen Mo pulled Xu Wei aside and asked in a low voice, "What did you just tell me?" ”

Xu Wei said softly: "I said, 'He's a big myopia'...... Even if you put it in the box with the fritters, he won't be able to tell the difference. ”

"Really?" Silently wiped his sweat and said, "It's okay for me to have a false alarm." ”

"Speaking of myopia, there's a joke about him." Xu Wei whispered: "The last time I went to Guozijian with him, I walked in front of the newly completed 'Yiqing Hall', he looked at the plaque and stomped his feet angrily, knowing that I had brought the Guozi Prison Priest wine, scolded him for not being orthodox, and wanted to participate in his insulting Sven. Gao Gong was scolded and confused, and asked him, what did I do wrong, and guess what he said? Saying that, he laughed and said: "I saw Lord Yuan pointing to the plaque and saying: You have hung up the 'Relic Spirit Hall', isn't it an insult?" ”

Shen Mo covered his mouth vigorously, but he still couldn't help but laugh, but fortunately, Yuan Wei was still immersed in the artistic conception of the ethereal green words, and he didn't notice his disrespect.

After chanting for a full quarter of an hour, Yuan Wei slowly finished his work and looked at the two of them: "How is it?" ”

"High, really high!" Shen Mo and the two stretched out their thumbs together and praised.

"Can you beat the crowd?" Yuan Wei smiled proudly.

"Yes, it will work!" The two nodded together again.

"Haha, I've inherited the two auspicious words." Yuan Wei said with a smile as if he had changed someone: "Thanks to this trip today, otherwise I am afraid that this green word will not be able to be held back tomorrow." ”

"Who doesn't know that adults are the first master of my Ming Qing words, and they are too modest." Silently speaking, he glanced at the adults who looked at him on the table.

Yuan Wei sighed and said: "It's not difficult to make a good green word, but the difficult thing is that you have to make new words and good words for a few years." Only then did he realize that he had been waiting for a long time, so he quickly smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the old man is too devoted, so you have been waiting for a long time." ”

Silently glanced at Xu Wei, who was empathetic, and said softly: "It's not easy to do anything." ”

Xu Wei nodded and said, "Long live understanding." ”

When the guest and host sit down, then the banquet is opened, and the people in the house will hold the food plate and serve the dishes like flowing water, because most of the guests are Jiangnan people, so the dishes are naturally southern tastes, what a bad red and fragrant Jiaxing sauce duck; powdery, white and soft Zhenjiang bacon; The soft and fatty Matsutake mushrooms are all cooked by the chef, and the taste is so delicious that even in Gangnam, it is difficult to eat at leisure.

And the container for the dishes is also very exquisite, such as the steamed fresh sea bass, resting in the plain white ice jade, depicting the blue pattern of the spring river plumbing, just look at it, you can make people think of the south of the Yangtze River, think of the style of the water town. Coupled with Shaoxing's best rice wine, the guests deeply realized what it means to be 'good food is not afraid of being late', even if they are a little irritable and dissatisfied in their hearts, they also dissipate unconsciously in this delicious food and wine, and the beautiful artistic conception.

Tang Ruji raised his wine glass, saluted Shen Moyao and said with a smile: "I originally listened to the allusion of 'Thoughts of Ulva Perch', and felt that Zhang Ji Ying was a little hypocritical...... I'm a little homesick. ”

Shen Mo had a glass with him and smiled, "That's my fault." ”

"If it's all fault," Tang Ruji shook his head and smiled: "I'd rather you make a mistake again and again......" His witty remark caused everyone to laugh for a while, and they finally felt that they were no longer so hungry, so the mouth resumed another function - to speak.

But when the words came to their mouths, they all felt that it was difficult to speak, because most of their tasks were to probe the silence and observe the situation of others, but in front of so many people, even if they were clever tongues, they really didn't know how to ask.

I had to talk about some irrelevant things first, and while chatting, I talked about the major events that happened today - the criminal department, Dali Temple, and the three legal departments of the Metropolitan Procuratorate tried Wang Chen's case and announced the verdict today, everyone thought that Wang Chen, who was going to die, was miraculously not convicted, but just 'cut officials for the people, sent back to his hometown, and never hired'.

Although in this way, Lord Wang's future is over, but in the eyes of Baiguan, this is already a blessing to invite heaven. Because before this, even the officials of the Criminal Department said that the three officials had already greeted each other, and no one was allowed to intercede for Wang Chen.

Everyone came out to mingle, it was not a day or two, and they naturally knew that this meant that Wang Chen was dead, but now there was such a dramatic turn, which made everyone feel very surprised...... They all know that there is only one person in the Ming Dynasty who has the power to reverse all this, and that is His Majesty Emperor Jiajing.

His Majesty's abrupt intervention was like a thunderclap, which exploded over the capital, making all parties tremble, and I don't know what this represents.

As a matter of fact, earlier this year, the backbone elements of these various parties and factions discussed this matter with their own bosses, and they inevitably brought their respective views to this table...... I only heard Yin Shizhan say slightly excitedly: "This is Your Majesty's Shengming, you have a good eye, it turns out that Your Majesty will not wronged a good person, nor will you let go of a bad person!" He is the same year as Wang Shizhen, and they are like-minded with each other, so they are naturally happy to see the current situation.

When Hu Zhi heard this, he was not happy, and sneered: "Wang Chen will never be used, can he still be regarded as a good person?" Lord Yin, do you still want to overturn the case for him? ”

"Of course I didn't mean that," the hat was buttoned up big enough, and Yin Shizhan dared to take it, and quickly explained: "I mean that he is not guilty to death, not that he is innocent." ”

"Hmph......" Tang Ruji snorted and said: "What is innocent, but Your Majesty looks at the kindness of the past, and it is just extrajudicial kindness, if you want me to say, he is not a pity to die!" ”

Hu Zhi also nodded in agreement: "That is, although His Majesty pardons, it does not mean that he is not guilty, these are two concepts, don't confuse them!" ”

Silence sounded something meaning...... That Yin Shizhan just sighed casually, and provoked Tang Hu and the others, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, jumped up, scratched and bit it open, obviously Yan Ge had an order to show a very tough attitude and strictly control public opinion, so as not to let someone take advantage of the topic to play and demand that the false accuser be held accountable...... It doesn't matter if you can't catch the fox, the Yan family's father and son don't want to get into trouble.

He can watch the play, Zhang Juzheng, as Yin Shizhan's colleague in the same year's Jiayu Palace, naturally wants to step forward to help, so he heard him smile lightly: "The two of you don't have to be like this, right and wrong are in the hearts of the people, and it is not that he Yin Shizhan can change it by saying a few words," he said more slowly: "It's not that you can cover it up without letting people speak." ”

"What do you mean?" Hu Zhi glared at Zhang Juzheng angrily and said, "Who are you talking about?" ”

"Say who knows." Unexpectedly, Zhang Juzheng was also a master of scolding, so he said without concessions: "Master Hu, why be aggressive? ”

Shen Mo saw that the two sides were about to get into a stalemate, so he came forward and said to the mud: "The four of you take a break, there is a way for a gentleman not to take advantage of his tongue, if it is not a score to win or lose, let's change the way." ”

"In what way?" The four of them looked at him in unison.

"Pitcher." Shen Mo smiled and clapped his hands. Then a servant in Tsing Yi carried in a three-foot-high copper pitcher with the head of a beast and placed it two feet away from the wine table.

The history of this game is long enough, as early as the Zhou Dynasty, one of the etiquette of princes when entertaining guests was to invite guests to shoot arrows. In that martial era, it would be considered a shame for an adult man not to know archery, so the host invited the guest to shoot an arrow, and the guest could not refuse, and this was the case in the Qin and Han dynasties. But in the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the rice-worm-like warriors became the mainstream, and these people couldn't open their bows at all, so how could they talk about archery? Instead, throw the flask with an arrow. Over time, pot throwing replaced archery as a game at feasts.

Later, in the Tang Dynasty, the game almost disappeared, and even women disdained to play it. But since the Song Dynasty, the literati completely abandoned the six arts, most of them became powerless weak scholars, throwing pots this kind of calm and serene, pay attention to etiquette activities, just suitable for the needs of scholars, so it has been popular until now, enduring, almost become a must when scholars feast and drink.

Everyone here obviously loved this way, and when they saw that the pot was brought up, they were overjoyed, and they happened to have eaten almost enough, and the wine was drunk, so they left the table in turn, took a small arrow, which was also made of copper, and played the game of throwing the pot with great interest.

But it's not Hu Tou, everyone must draw a stick in the lottery holder before throwing the pot...... On the sticks in the holder, there are different patterns written, such as 'spring sleep, listening to the piano, inverted, rolling blinds, goose titles, reed turning, butterflies' and so on, there are really many names. If you draw a lot, you have to vote according to the above requirements. For example, if you draw 'Spring Sleep', you have to let Xiao Ya fall flat into the bottom of the pot, and if you reach it, you will call it 'Yang Concubine Sleep', if you draw 'Inverted', you have to let Xiao Ya's arrow be thrown out first, but the end of the arrow will be advanced in the pot, and if it is achieved, it will be called 'Upside Down Willow', and so on, and so on.

It may sound difficult, but for those of you who play this regularly, it's not difficult, it's just a little challenging.

When all the servants retreat silently, in front of the subordinates, you adults must respect their own identities, and it is naturally inconvenient to jump out of the game, and only by retreating can you have fun! So the people were divided into two groups according to the camp and began to take turns to play a pot throwing competition...... The winner gets one point, and if he doesn't, he doesn't get any points, and finally see which side can win. So the two sides did their best, you a 'diagonal flower arrangement', the small arrow obliquely inserted into the mouth of the pot; I threw three arrows into the pot at the same time, to a 'handful of lotus', among which several Zhang Juzheng played the best, he drew the most difficult, called 'jumping across the mountain', unhurriedly turned around, turned his back to the pitcher, made a beautiful iron bridge, the arrow flew from his head into the mouth of the pot, fell steadily, even the other party could not help but cheer for him.

In addition to scoring, the shooter can also designate one person to drink and drink, of course, if he does not shoot as required, he will have to punish himself. After a few rounds of playing, the atmosphere became enthusiastic...... Those ordinary and elegant adults are all exposed at this moment, one by one open placket, revealing their chests, and even some of them are stepping on a stool with one foot and holding a wine bowl in the other, excitedly cheering for the pitcher, or cheering.

Shen Mo estimated that he had to play all night, so he ordered someone to carry the jade Ruyi back to the secret room and carefully hide it. Looking back at the enthusiastic banquet, I found that there was only one person, who was drinking quietly and never participated...... That person was Yuan Wei.

Shen Mo remembered that Yuan Wei's eyes were not good, and he would definitely not participate in this kind of game, so as not to bring humiliation on himself, so he said softly: "If the boss is tired, you can go to the side hall to rest." ”

Yuan Wei nodded, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "I'm old, my eyes are not good, and my energy is not good, so I can't play with young people." ”

Shen Mo helped him up, walked to the next room, invited Yuan Shilang to sit down on a soft chair that Middle-earth had never seen before, and after reading the tea, he pushed left and right, and as soon as the door was closed, the sound was cut out.

Yuan Wei sat on the wide soft chair, feeling that all parts of his body could be well taken care of, which was much more comfortable than sitting on an ordinary chair, and couldn't help but ask silently: "Why have I never seen this kind of chair?" ”

He smiled silently: "This is the chair that the Western nobles sit on, in our words, it is called 'sofa', does the old man feel comfortable?" ”

"Comfortable, so comfortable." Yuan Wei praised: "Our kind of wooden chair is not so comfortable even if it is on the bed quilt." ”

"Then I'll give this sofa to the old man later." Shen Mo smiled: "If you don't feel old." ”

Yuan Wei was very original, but he was still duplicitous and humble: "That's embarrassing." ”

"The old man is too outspoken," said with a silent smile: "In addition to the sofa, there are some special things that are not respectful, please be sure to laugh." ”
