In the scorching summer, the sun baked the slate floor, and the hoarse chirping of the trees and the leaves were like a man hiding next to the well in the yard of his home.

The mother-in-law was complaining, complaining that the man had not worked for a long time, and the family would not be able to open the pot, but the man ignored it, and every once in a while he would scoop a scoop of water from the well, and then pour it on his head.

wiped the water droplets on his face, and listened to the mother-in-law's broken thoughts, and the man's heart gradually became irritable.

It's not that he doesn't know that his mother-in-law is very hard for this family, for the son who went to the school while practicing martial arts, and he is thrifty enough, and he is worthy of being a good family.

The martial arts hall is well run, so that those of them who only know how to fight hard have a bright future, and many neighbors are happy. However, after the joy, a new problem was placed in front of me - to enter the martial arts hall, you have to practice martial arts and study, which requires money. In the past, you only had to submit one, but now you have to submit two. It's a lot heavier than the burden.

And do you think there is nothing but tuition? The cost of books, miscellaneous expenses, pen and ink fees, and the honor money for the teacher, isn't that a jingle? And one of the most headaches is the money. The amount of sending, the time and place, the way, and who came forward are all knowledge, enough for them to scratch their heads with manual labor.

Thinking of this, the man pursed his mouth. When Niang Xipi killed corrupt officials, why didn't he do these dog-headed military advisors of rich and powerful families together?

Of course, the Admiral in the man's mind refers to the previous Admiral, the little marquis of the Xie family. In the eyes of the people of Jindu, the reason why Lord Admiral is synonymous with Xie Shence is not only because the little marquis has dedicated many years of after-dinner conversations for them, but also because when the little marquis was in power, the road was not left behind, the house was not closed at night, there were many fewer corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the corruption and perversion of the law were almost extinct. The current one is not as good as that.

The mother-in-law was still muttering, and the man poured another scoop of water in annoyance, and scolded in his heart that your special mother's woman knows a ball, and it is true that the suburbs of the West City should be renovated, but is the work stopped if we want to? That's a good thing that the new Kyoto Prefecture Yoon did. The work is all contracted to the Zou family who stayed in the city, let's do a fart.

Hey, who doesn't know that Lord Fu Yin and the Zou family are in-laws?

Hey, this western suburb is going to be renovated, and there will be no cheaper place for tooth sacrifices in the past. The only big project that Yang Fuyin did that won the hearts of the people is about to come to an end.

Hey, speaking of which, although Yang Fu Yin hasn't done anything good in the past few years, he doesn't seem to have done anything bad, but after the new Fu Yin came to power, he did a series of pickled things.

The man sighed, then wet the towel, laid the chaise longue flat, lay it on his head, and fell into a deep sleep.

A lot of big things have happened in Jindu these times. First, Ren Shaoqing of Honglu Temple was deposed, and then exiled and refused to be hired for life. Next is Yang Sanjuo Yang Mansion Yin, who is almost about to sit on the throne of Kyoto Mansion, and finally his ass is off the bench - he was transferred to Taiyuan Mansion as a farewell.

Ren Shaoqing's exile is said to have been due to the fact that as one of the chief officials of the Honglu Temple, he had damaged the relations between the Great Jin Kingdom and certain countries because of his inappropriate words. However, in the end, there are still people who take advantage of the problem to play.

Not to mention that Ren Shaoqing has been an official for many years, there is no big mistake, and he will not make such a common-sense mistake at all, just saying the wrong thing will be drained for 2,000 miles, and it is indeed heavy.

It's not just heavy! It's like pushing to death.

It is not excluded that some officialdom has festivals and filth, and some people have sniffed out something from this matter, so in the early court during this period, almost every prince of Zhu Zi had articles on his face.

If Ren Shaoqing's "fall from the horse" was a secret temptation or challenge, then Yang Sanzao was transferred to Taiyuan Mansion to drive a naked slap in the face.

- The object of this challenge is undoubtedly the Xie family.

Yang Sanzao seems to have taken a path from the central to the local government, and then from the local to the center, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is actually the opposite - someone wants to kill Yang Sanzao. Everyone knows that in Taiyuan Mansion back then, Xie Shence, the little marquis who was still the commander of the Tiqi Division, slaughtered the conservative forces surnamed Yangquan in one go, and then forcefully broke the local resistance group, and the Xie family and Liangzi of Shanxi Province were concluded.

After Xie Shence left and after the implementation of the martial arts hall, no one in Taiyuan Mansion did raise any objections, or that there were no more moths, but everyone knew that Yangquan and Taiyuan Mansion actually had no good impression of this "airborne" Admiral. The army is the army, and officialdom is officialdom. Especially after Xie Shence lost power, Taiyuan Mansion's dissatisfaction with Xie Shence and the Xie family slowly began to become clear.

Yang Sanzao is a protégé of the Xie family, he went to Taiyuan Mansion to take another driver, and there is no reason not to be targeted. Coupled with the help of people with hearts, it may not be impossible to kill Yang Sanzao in Taiyuan.

In a sense, this is actually a declaration of war on the Xie family by a group headed by Zhao Hongtai and others.

Ren Shaoqing has become a protégé of the Xie family since Zhenglong's four-year trip to Xianbei. Although a place like Honglu Temple has always been a place where the stream is clean and honest and idle, but the people are good officials with a clear banner, and when they can speak, they are not stingy and are not afraid of offending people, and they are very sharp. This point, Ren Shaoqing, who has never really studied under the Xie family, is much sharper than Master Lang Gu, who has followed the old lady for a period of time. And because of this, Lord Gu was able to sit on the waiter of the Ministry of Rites for many years, but Ren Shaoqing was pushed to the end at the critical moment when he was about to be promoted to the secretary of the temple.

On the day Ren Shaoqing left Beijing, there were not many people to see him off, Xie Yi did not appear, and some of the leaders of the Xie family did not show up. In the eyes of outsiders, this is really a sad and chilling thing for the rabbit to die and the fox, but Ren Shaoqing is calm.

"So-and-so is no longer the so-and-so he was back then, how can he not even see through this?"

Ren Shaoqing said with a smile to the two people who had already been sent far away.

"The uncle is seriously ill, and the second master can't come, so I understand."

Gu Shilang wanted to speak and stopped, Ren Shaoqing raised his hand, the iron chain rattled, and said: "Of course, even if the uncle is not seriously ill, he does not approve of the second master coming." Not only the second master, but also several other adults, they don't want them to show up. ”

Gu Shilang sighed, and his original intention to comfort Ren Shaoqing was completely gone, but he still felt a little unbearable in his heart.

"Sigh what, Ren has not done many pleasant things in his life, and a few times he has been arguing in the court, it is a pleasure. Watching a group of bigwigs listen to someone speak, even His Majesty the Emperor occasionally nodded, tsk, it's really enjoyable. However, the most enjoyable and enjoyable thing in a certain life is still on the grassland. Oh, the prince and the little marquis, the Xianbei people who beat the flowers and water, now that I think about it, I still feel comfortable. It's just that at that time, I didn't feel it, which is a pity, otherwise it would have been perfect. ”

Gu Shilang sighed again and said, "Shibei, you have really changed. ”

Ren Shibei Ren Shaoqing laughed: "I have changed a long time ago." It's just that you old fellow, I'm afraid I haven't spoken to me like this in years. ”

Gu Shilang thought about it, no, it must have been four or five years.

Ren Shaoqing said to the other person: "Lord Fu Yin, you can come to see me, but it is beyond my expectations. ”

The obscene brocade robe man with a rat whisker is none other than Yang Sanzao in Kyoto Prefecture.

Yang Sanzao Yang Fu Yin gracefully twisted the rat whisker with three fingers and smiled slightly. This posture is full of style, and it is one of the most popular gestures in the Jin capital at the moment, and there is no one who will not do this for a bearded Confucian official. It's just that although Lord Fu Yin's gesture is very full, it is very awkward in terms of the overall meaning.

"The old man came, but because he always had to make a statement, the old man was not afraid of being scolded, and he was not afraid of people moving behind his back, so he came calmly, just to see off his old friend."

Yang Fuyin, who can now call himself an old man, stroked his beard slowly, but with a smile in his eyes, he was a little gloating.

Ren Shaoqing saw Yang Sanzao, who was still looking like this obscene at this time, and saw the undisguised ridicule in his eyes, and his heart was a little moved.

Yang Sanzao and Ren Shaoqing are at odds, which is not much of a secret among the upper-level Beijing officials in the Jin capital. One of the whiskers is outstanding, and the other is ready to work whenever necessary.

Ren Shaoqing is down, but Yang Sanzao is still there, and Yang Sanzao is still the same as before, which makes Ren Shaoqing miss it very much.

"I'm gone, but it's easier. Everything that needs to be done has been done, with a clear conscience. However, you are different, you are still here, and you will definitely not live for long. They've already laid their hands on me, and don't expect to be left alone. ”

Yang Sanzao snorted, as if he didn't care.

Gu Shilang shook his head and said, "When is it still bickering." Okay, it's already inappropriate to send twenty miles, and don't be careful about the rest of the way. The escorted public servants have already been taken care of, and those people will no longer secretly stumble and do some ugly things. We take care of it in Beijing, and the second master has already spoken, so you don't have to worry. ”

Ren Shaoqing said with a smile: "I am naturally relieved that you do things." Say thank you to the second master on my behalf. ”

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye, it's hard to say in this life."

"Take care."

Ren Shaoqing arched his hand, the iron chain rattled, and then left without looking back.

When Ren Shaoqing walked away, Gu Shilang and Yang Sanzao got into the carriage.

"If the second master doesn't come, it naturally makes sense, we are reasonable people, in fact, I don't want the second master to come out at this time, it will cause unnecessary trouble. However, the second master did not come after all."

You really shouldn't come, and we don't think you should come, but you probably can't really not come.

How much is a meaning, there are bad things, and no one will complain about anything, but if there is no yes, it is chilling.

Yang Sanzao frowned, as if he was very dissatisfied with Gu Shilang's words that should be said to be absolutely unseen.

Ren Shaoqing opened the window, glanced back, and then closed the window again.

His fall was just the beginning, and when he was exiled, the Xie family couldn't see him off openly, I have to say that this is a signal.

The Xie family is no longer good.

Ren Shaoqing sighed. He didn't feel sorry for anyone, he had done what he should have done, although he didn't necessarily have the unhappiness of being regarded as an outcast in his heart, and there was still a slight loss. Ren Shaoqing can't guarantee at this time that he will not be able to walk one day, and he will not regret his choice back then.

The escorted public listened to the sighs in the car and smiled at each other, full of mockery and disdain.

Let you be the Marquis of Zhu Zi, as long as you are on this eight-pound flail, you are a prisoner! That's the dog that has lost its power! In the past, you could be dismissive of Lao Tzu, but now we are the masters!

However, after turning the corner, the two dukes stopped.

There are two riders in front, a middle-aged man and a young man.

The two dukes didn't recognize the middle-aged man, but they recognized the young man who was hanging like a crown of jade and chopping a horse.

Because when they went out of Beijing before, they asked them to take care of Ren Shaoqing along the way, and he was him.

Weihou Shizi, today's horse master, thank Shenwei.

And with Xie Shenwei taking the lead in dismounting and then helping the middle-aged man to dismount, how could the two dukes still not understand his identity?

The most low-key middle-aged man who everyone knew in Dajin, but not many people knew, arched his hand towards the carriage.

"Shibei, it's very disrespectful to send each other here, so I brought a pot of wine. But I can't drink alcohol today, so I'll drink it on my behalf of my son Wenzhao. Don't blame you. ”

Ren Shaoqing stumbled out of the carriage, showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, took the wine jug handed over by Xie Shenwei, looked up and took a big sip, and removed half of it.

The wine is very strong, and the heart is very warm.
