The 175th palm of the text rises in the east

Mei Lengxiang snuggled up to him for a long time before she mustered up the courage to say, "I came to you that day because my father asked me to go back." ”

Yi Xingchen couldn't help but be very strange and said, "Your father? Didn't you say that your entire family was killed by the White Lotus Sect? ”

Mei Lengxiang nodded and said: "My father is a civil official, but he is good at using soldiers, the emperor appointed him to lead the army to recruit and suppress the White Lotus Sect, and he has made great achievements in battle, killing countless White Lotus Sect disciples. That's why the White Lotus Sect hated my father to the core. That year, as far as I can remember, dozens of people from the White Lotus Sect infiltrated the capital, attacked my house, and killed my parents and brothers. I will never forget the hideous eyes of those thieves of the White Lotus Sect, the blood on their bodies, the blood on their knives, and the way their parents lay in a pool of blood. I took advantage of the chaos to wipe the blood of my parents on my face and body, and lay down in the pile of dead people and pretended to be dead, it was the blood of my parents who saved me, they thought I was dead, and I escaped in this way.

Speaking of sadness, Mei Lengxiang's voice was choked, and her eyes were red. Yi Xingchen hugged her tightly in his arms and comforted her softly.

After a moment, after the mood calmed down a little, Mei Lengxiang continued: "Seeing that I have become an orphan." Marquis Wuding's relationship with my father was very good, so he decided to take me as his righteous daughter and take me to raise me at home. Therefore, Wu Dinghou became my adoptive father. He also asked the emperor to canonize me as the lord of the county, because I was bent on avenging my father, so the Marquis of Wuding asked the trustee to find my master and ask my master to take me as an apprentice. After that, I stayed in the mountains with Master until I finished my studies and went down the mountain. ”

Yi Xingchen understood a little and said: "So that's the case, that is, Marquis Wuding has set a family affair for you." Did you go back on a blind date last time? ”

Mei Lengxiang nodded, then shook her head and said, "Father's letter didn't explain it, so. I didn't know it at the time, but when I arrived, I realized that they had already set up a family affair for me. Of course I didn't want to, so I told them that I had a sweetheart, and I wouldn't marry anyone but him, and my father was very angry. However, the mother persuaded the father. Let me take you to meet him first, and if it can be matched, it won't hurt. Anyway, the marriage they set has not yet been hired, so. I can only come to you with a cheeky face, and I don't know if you want to ......."

"Of course I do, ten thousand willing! I will marry you, and no one can stop me. Yi Xingchen hugged her tightly and fell on the bed, took her into his arms, and kissed and caressed her. It wasn't until Mei Lengxiangjiao was panting, grabbed his hand and shook his head to prevent him from going any further, that he gave up.

Yi Xingchen thought for a while and said, "Your father said that it depends on whether we are a good match, which is a bit difficult. Your family is a prince and general, and I am at best just a general banner of the brocade guard, from the seventh rank official. How can I compare to you? How good is that? ”

Mei Lengxiang lay in his arms and said: "I have thought about it too, but you have already achieved the seventh rank official at the age of fifteen or sixteen, except for those who have inherited the title by relying on the shadow of their ancestors, who can surpass you on their own?" Fathers are people who understand and should know this. Take a step back. You have an official position, and you have done so at a young age. My father was not satisfied, and I had nothing to say. Although they have nurtured me, they must not control my fate. Big deal, the two of us left here and went to a place where no one could find us. ”

Yi Xingchen couldn't help but be ecstatic when he heard it, and his hanging heart finally let go. What he is most worried about is that Mei Lengxiang has three obedience and four virtues, and if he has to obey his parents' orders and matchmakers, then he will be miserable. Now Mei Lengxiang has made it clear that he will not blindly follow his parents' decisions, there must be something that should be, and he will follow himself regardless of everything, what is more touching to him than this?

Yi Xingchen hugged her and said, "Sister, we don't have to elope, don't worry, I will definitely marry you justifiably, even if your father doesn't agree, I can think of a way." I firmly believe that a lover will eventually become a family, and I am also capable of doing this, don't worry! ”

Mei Lengxiang showed a bright smile at the corner of her mouth, looked at him, nodded for a while, snuggled into his arms shyly, and said softly: "I knew you would have a way, I don't worry about ......"

The two of them lay next to each other in bed, neither of them spoke, but they were immersed in great happiness and longing for the future.

After a while, Mei Lengxiang said, "What are you going to do?" ”

Yi Xingchen had already thought about it just now, and said, "I have to go to the capital with you, I want to be with you, and no one can separate us." And it's only together that we can think of ways to deal with it. Governor Li had suggested that I go to Beijing with him yesterday, but he asked me to use fortune-telling to make a name for myself, and eventually gain the emperor's appreciation, and deal with the Heavenly Tribulation Sect after I have power. However, he couldn't help me, and let me fight the entire Heavenly Tribulation Sect single-handedly. I certainly didn't want to take any chances. But now, for your sake, I have to do it. ”

Mei Lengxiang was overjoyed and said, "Really? You come with me to Beijing? ”

"Yes! I have to make a name for myself, Jinyi Wei Zongqi is definitely not qualified to marry you, the county lord, but if it is a national teacher by the emperor's side, then the status should be worthy of your Houmen, right? ”

"Of course you deserve it! When my father saw the national teachers around the emperor now, they were all respectful, and the status of the national teachers was higher than that of princes in the eyes of the emperor, so how could he not be worthy? ”

"Okay, then it's decided, the soldiers will go to the capital as a national teacher! Ha ha! ”

The next morning.

Yi Xingchen found Governor Li and handed the confession of the guards to Governor Li.

Governor Li didn't wake up from a hangover last night, and his body was a little tired, so he reclined down and sat on the soft couch. took the confession, read a few lines, and sat up straight. I read it carefully word by word, and finally read it all, pondered for a long time, looked at Yi Xingchen, and said, "What do you think should be done about this matter?" ”

"I don't dare to make a decision on the major affairs of the court, so I ask the adults to show me."

Governor Li stood up, shook a little, held on to the coffee table, stabilized his figure, paced around the room a few times, sat down again, as if he had made a major decision, looked at Yi Xingchen and said, "Yesterday you said that it would be good for you to hide in the dark and help me come up with ideas, but now it doesn't work." If the son-in-law of Marquis Wuding is really the leader of the White Lotus Sect. This case is about to be turned upside down. Because before this, this case was appointed by the emperor, and he wanted to overturn such a case. It is simply impossible to make a good enough decision without sufficient evidence, and a smart enough choice. I can't do it in my ability, but I can't sit idly by. Therefore, I solemnly ask you to follow me into Beijing. Help me deal with the Heavenly Tribulation Cult! I hope you can say yes. ”

"What the hell is going on in this case? Please explain, I have a good idea in my heart. In order to make a choice. ”

Governor Li talked and said: "This case involves many people, let me tell you, the son-in-law of the Marquis of Wuding is called Zhang Yin, who is the commander of the Taiyuan Wei in Shanxi. Jiajing for five years. His fellow countryman Xue Liang reported to the Shanxi Patrol Imperial Shi Malu that he was the bandit leader of the White Lotus Sect. This matter let Wuding Marquis Guo Xun know, so he wrote to Ma Lu, hoping that the big thing would be small. Ma Lu joined forces with Governor Jiang Chao to impeach Guo Xun. The emperor issued an order to appoint Yan Yishou, the secretary of the Ministry of Punishment and Punishment, Nie Xian, the imperial history of Zuodu, and Tang Mu, the secretary of Dali Temple, to be reviewed. It was found that this was a case of false accusation, and that the relevant officials abused their power for various reasons. The emperor was very angry, and issued a holy decree for Jinyiwei to arrest Ma Lu and enter Beijing, and imprisoned Li Zhang, the political envoy, Li Yu, and Zhang Lun. Xue Liang was sentenced to death, and Ma Lu was assigned to the frontier. Gui Cao, Fang Xianfu and others were rehabilitated, and Zhang Yinguan was restored. ”

Speaking of this, Governor Li let out a long sigh and said, "Actually, this case has changed its flavor later. is no longer tracking down whether Zhang Yin is the leader of the White Lotus Sect, but is involved in a public case that year. At this point, there is no way to figure things out. Many officials eventually lost their positions and resigned. It's not because of any fraud, it's because old accounts have been turned over. ”

Yi Xingchen didn't know much about history, and he didn't know about this public case, so he looked at Governor Li with wide eyes and said, "What kind of public case does this matter involve in front of you?" ”

Governor Li glanced at him and said, "You are only fifteen or sixteen years old, so of course you can't know about this public case, so don't worry." I'll give you all the causes and consequences, so that you can have an understanding. "Say it. Governor Li told everything as it was. He is a dignified second-class governor, he knows a lot of things in his chest, and he can see it clearly, plus the two are friends of life and death, so there is nothing obscure.

This public case is like this, the emperor before Emperor Jiajing was the Zhengde Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who was only sixteen years old when he died, had no children, and at the same time had no brothers. Therefore, the court ministers agreed that his cousin would inherit the throne, that is, Emperor Jiajing. After Emperor Jiajing succeeded to the throne, he wanted to honor his own father as his first father, but did not want to respect his dead cousin, Emperor Zhengde's father. This was opposed by most officials in the imperial court, who believed that he should respect Emperor Zhengde's father as his first father as a stepson. As a result, the emperor and his ministers waged a fierce struggle over this matter. This is the great ritual debate in history, and in the end the emperor took strong measures to win.

In this struggle, Guo Xun, Marquis of Wuding, was the backbone of the faction that resolutely supported the emperor. In the case of whether Zhang Yin is the leader of the White Lotus Sect, in order to save his son-in-law's life, Marquis Wu Dinghou forcibly linked this case with the Great Rites Discussion, saying that those officials who wanted to convict his son-in-law actually wanted to use this matter to retaliate for his support of the emperor in the Great Rites Discussion. The emperor believed his words and immediately killed those officials who advocated that Guo Xun's son-in-law, Zhang Yin, be the leader of the White Lotus Sect, that is, the former Protector Sect. This case also involves political struggle, and the case itself is confusing, and it is even more difficult to find out when it comes to political struggle. Therefore, it has become a mystery whether Zhang Yin, the son-in-law of Guo Xun, Marquis of Wuding, is the bandit leader of the White Lotus Sect.

A few years later, in the forty-fifth year of Jiajing, Cai Boguan, a native of Sichuan, rebelled, was defeated and arrested, and confessed that he was an apprentice of Li Tong, the grandson of Li Fuda. said that Zhang Yin is Li Fuda himself. It seems to prove that Zhang Yin is the leader of the White Lotus Sect, so Ma Lu was rehabilitated and presented to the servant Shaoqing. Despite this, many historians also believe that this person's confession is insufficient evidence to overturn the case, so this case is still a mystery and is inconclusive.

After listening to this old case, Yi Xingchen couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said to Governor Li: "My lord means that I will follow you back to the capital and turn over this old case?" - Our opponent is the Emperor. ”

Governor Li said: "I'm not asking you to overturn the case with me, since the bandits of the White Lotus Sect have been planted in the heart of the imperial court, if we ignore them, I am afraid that sooner or later we will endanger the society of the country." I want you and me to join hands and fight against these people. Yesterday, my proposal was for you to deal with the entire White Lotus Sect alone, and now, I want to join hands with you to deal with the White Lotus Sect and advance and retreat together. Moreover, we still have that principle, just talk about things, and don't go online. It's not related to that old case, we just need to find the evidence of their guilt and let the emperor decide, that's it, I think you can do it, right? ”

Yi Xingchen pondered for a long time the night before. What he pondered was actually that hexagram, how to interpret the hexagram in line with the true providence of heaven.

Because of the three big murderers in front of him, but the result is lucky, which makes it difficult to choose. The first day he quoted Shao Yong's explanation, but the Yi scholars in history gave different interpretations of the Guangtian Wind and Dirt Hexagram. For example, "Breaking Yi Tianji" interprets the hexagram: Qianshang Xunxia, one yin and five yang, which is the first hexagram of the Qiangong. The concubine hexagram meets yin and yang, and multiplies rigidity with softness, which contains the meaning of unexpected encounters, but it is not suitable to marry a woman. This hexagram is suitable for work, and if it encounters fire, there will be happy events.

Judging from this hexagram, it is completely possible to do it. The Peach Blossom Festival mentioned in Shao Yong's hexagram has become a peach blossom luck here. If you like yourself, it may not be the emperor's concubine, but the emperor's princess or county lord or something, but I am afraid that I will recruit a concubine, which is also in line with the hexagram.

It is very common for the same hexagram to be interpreted differently, because Fu Xi left a gossip map, and the annotations made by the scriptures written later are all understood according to personal views, and different people, different experiences, different thoughts, and different attitudes towards life will have a gap in the results of the hexagram interpretation.

Even if Governor Li didn't say this, Yi Xingchen had already decided to go out of Majing City and go to the name of the emperor's national teacher, because he won the name of the national teacher and came to marry Mei Lengxiang. Now with Governor Li's words, he is full of confidence, as long as Governor Li recommends him, he will have a lot less risk and can become a national teacher faster. In that way, you will be able to marry Mei Lengxiang faster.

However, what they want to check now is Mei Lengxiang's brother-in-law, if Mei Lengxiang knows that the leader of the White Lotus Sect she has been looking for is actually her brother-in-law, she doesn't know if she can still kill him to avenge her parents' family, and whether her adoptive father, Wuding Marquis Guo Xun, will let her do it.

Thinking of this, Yi Xingchen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this time, he was only afraid of bloody rain, and he didn't know what kind of uproar it would cause.

Yi Xingchen got up and arched his hand: "Since the adults said so, I have to retreat again, but I am afraid that I will be regarded as living up to the cultivation of the adults." ”

Governor Li was pleasantly surprised: "So, Brother Yi, have you promised to go to Beijing with the old man to deal with the White Lotus Sect together?" ”

"Yes, I want to use my fortune-telling skills to become a national teacher, and work with the governor to deal with the White Lotus Sect."

Governor Li originally thought that Yi Xingchen would hesitate, and he was ready to persuade him, but he didn't expect Yi Xingchen to agree so simply. couldn't help laughing, patted Yi Xingchen on the shoulder and said, "Great, the old man will definitely sponsor you in front of the emperor to ensure that you can become a national teacher soon, and then we will deal with the Heavenly Tribulation Sect together." ”

Yi Xingchen said: "Okay, but I'd better go first, go to the capital to calculate the hexagram first, and make a name for myself." After the adults got the rumors, they could deliberately come to me to tell the fortune, and then spread it in the imperial court, striving to cause a sensation in the capital. In this way, the adults can take advantage of the situation to sponsor me to the emperor, and it is logical to go together. ”

"Very well, that's it!"

The next day, the sun rose in the east.

Yi Xingchen rode a horse, Mei Lengxiang on the left, and Tang Xiaoqi on the right, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, beat the horse and whipped it, and went towards the rising sun.
