It is said that Li You arrived at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, inspected the report and said to the doorman: "I am Li You, a fellow villager of Dazhong Cheng and the governor of Suzhou Prefecture, and I specially sent a letter from Dazhong Cheng's family. ”

I heard that there was a letter from the chief official, and the doorman did not dare to slack off, so he went in to report it. After a while, he replied: "Dazhong Cheng has a saying, the Tao is at this time of business, it is inconvenient to talk about personal friendship, please Lord Li to see him in the house in the evening to the hour." ”

This old man is really principled... Li You stuffed some silver in the door again, and annoyed the doorman and said: "This official is not only here for private matters, but also for 100,000 urgent official business, I have to see Dazhongcheng, I can't wait for the evening, please report again." ”

If someone else was stalking, the doorman would have scolded him a long time ago. But the person in front of him seems to have something to do with Zuo Du Yushi, and those who can help carry family letters are not relatives and friends. For the sake of the doorman's face, the doorman went in again to report it.

This time, Li You was introduced, passing through several halls, but he saw that there was nothing unusual about the courtyard of the house here, and it was even ordinary and featureless.

It wasn't until he entered a main hall that Lord Li didn't have time to see what Zhao Liangren looked like after the public case, so he bowed and saluted: "The townsman has seen the old man of the general constitution at the end of the villager. ”

When the seventh-grade foreign official saw the second-rank imperial envoy for the first time, he couldn't kneel anymore, and Lord Li, who hadn't kowtowed to anyone for a long time, had a little pain in his knees. I heard the above say, "No need to be polite, please get up", and then got up.

He secretly looked at Zhao Liangren, and immediately sighed that the three brothers of the Zhao family were different. Zhao San's good and righteous officials are informal, and Zhao Er's husband belongs to the category of humble gentlemen who are as gentle as jade.

But this Zhao boss is over half a hundred years old, and his appearance is serious and unsmiling, and he is called poker face in the words of his previous life, and he knows at a glance that he is not easy to mess with.

Zhao Liangren nodded to Li You, and Li You hurriedly took out the blood letter from his sleeve and handed it over.

The old man opened it and read it, his eyes suddenly frowned, and he looked at a few more lines, waved his hand and retreated from the idle people on the left and right, leaving only Li You in the house. He said sharply: "The fateful book of the sixth prison student is actually in your hands? It is rumored that someone is pretending to be the imperial history, could it be you? ”

Li You shouted that he was wronged, briefly described his experience, and finally said: "The lower official committee has really suffered an unjustified disaster, and it is almost cornered. Hearing that Dazhong Cheng has always been fair and clear, he took the liberty to come and beg for help. ”

"You don't have to deliberately greet and slander." Zhao Liangren said a few words, and suddenly changed his head and said, "Where is the book of my family?" ”

Just now, he put on a posture and said that he would not talk about his personal affairs during official time, but now he took the initiative to ask for a letter from home... Li You's heart flashed, and he understood what Zhao Dazhongcheng meant.

This is definitely to evaluate the relationship between him Li You and the Zhao family through the content of the family letter, and then watch people cook... Whether it's good food and drink, hospitality or casual perfunctory, it's a matter of doing so.

The letter to Boss Zhao's family is two packages together, written by Zhao Liangyi and Zhao Liangli respectively.

Lord Zongxian was slightly surprised by this, his two younger brothers have different surnames, and the junior in front of him can actually make friends with these two people at the same time, which is a bit of a doorway.

Li You could only pray that there were many kind words for him in those two letters, so as to win the sympathy of the boss in front of him, and he kept beating a small drum in his heart to peek at the boss's face from the corner of his eye.

After reading it, Zhao Dazhong put the letter aside, and his expression did not change. opened his mouth and said to Li You: "There is nothing to say about the blood book of the prisoner, there are many scholars who are angry, and there is no shortage of them in all dynasties. But it's suspicious that these people kill themselves together. ”

Li You wanted to interject: It is the most suspicious that someone framed an official and pretended to be the imperial history! But he was afraid of the aura of the person in front of him, and forcibly held back.

However, patience finally gained in the end, and I only heard the old man write lightly: "It's not difficult for you to do this, I just said that the official was afraid that it would be inconvenient for the imperial history to be aware of the publicity, and asked you to secretly visit Taixue when you were in prison, which happened to be a misunderstanding and not intended to fake the imperial history." Ming said that the early court officials could calm down the rumors by playing it right. ”

Li You is overjoyed, he is here for these few sentences, and the big trouble in his eyes is just a matter of a few words for the general constitution.

Sure enough, it's to watch people cook, what does it mean that someone in the court is good to be an official... With the endorsement of the head of the imperial history, Zuodu Yushi, who would dare to say that he faked the imperial history? It's really the right one, it's not as good as Zuodu Yushi to find anyone.

"Thank you Dazhong Cheng for helping the needy." Li You thanked him for a few words, but was stopped by Zhao Liangren with his hand.

These things are indeed small things for Boss Zhao, and he doesn't care much about them.

A mere powerless and powerless country priest wine is a little ambitious, so what?

The death of six prisoners, it is said that he committed suicide, is a sensational event, the Jingshi court has been peaceful for many years, and there have been no abnormal deaths for more than ten years, so the death of the prisoners is also shocking news. But is there a real relationship with him? Sending Yushi to the inspector is a business matter, and it doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter who is right or wrong, no matter how big the movement is, it can't provoke him, this is the confidence of the second product Zuodu Yushi.

Li You had the courage to ask again: "Before the lower official left his hometown, Mr. Songzhai also entrusted the official to send a letter to the prince of the country to pay for the sacrificial wine, and now this letter..."

The Mr. Songzhai in his mouth refers to Zhao Liangyi and Zhao Er, who are idle at home and waiting for the opportunity to recover. In order to help Li Youpan make friends, Zhao Liangyi did write a letter to Fei Saijiu in the same year.

Yesterday, it was said that Li You went to Guozijian just to find some officials to inquire about the news, and he had no plan to meet Fei Saijiu, and because Fei Saijiu's power was too small, his letter did not have the effect of a talisman, so he did not carry it with him.

But at this time, Li You mentioned Fei Sacrifice Wine, not to be full, but actually to be tempted, and planned to observe something through the attitude of Lord Zhao.

Poor Lord Li's information is indeed too scarce, and it is rare to have the opportunity to talk to high-ranking officials, of course, we must try our best to dig out some insider dynamics.

Hearing that the second brother had a letter with Fei Saijiu, Zhao Dazhong said: "Don't send the letter first, it will be suspicious." Mr. Fei is unlucky, his career is not smooth, and his impatience and recklessness are also embarrassing. Instigating the prisoner to live may be there, but not forcing the prisoner to die, this must have another inside story. ”

"It's the pole, it's the pole." Li You was full of promises, but he secretly tasted it in his heart. Judging from Dazhongcheng's tone, it doesn't seem like the battle in the court has reached the level of life and death, swords and swords, of course, there must be a fight.

Li You also wants to continue to talk about these slightly sensitive topics, and every sentence of the other party is worth pondering.

However, as he spoke, Lord Zhao Liangren, who was inspired, suddenly had the same doubts as Li You before, "If anyone wants to trap Lord Fei for injustice, he can kill the six prisoners." What is the intention of fabricating you to fake the imperial history out of thin air? ”

Li You, who provoked the conversation, was embarrassed. Did you tell the boss that he might be holding Xu Shangshu's letter and swaggering to get into trouble? If you tell the truth, your evaluation in Dazhongcheng's mind should plummet? I knew I shouldn't have brought this topic here... Zhao Liangren thought about it again and asked, "You received the blood book of the prisoners in the Guozi Prison, what did you say?" ”

Li You replied: "The lower official only promised to transfer it to Yousi, and he really didn't say anything else." ”

The "Division" who handed over the letter was either the General Administration Department or the Metropolitan Procuratorate... Zhao Dazhong suddenly realized, could it be that Li You faintly revealed his relationship with him when he talked about the Metropolitan Procuratorate in Guozijian? Then he attracted the attention of people with a heart, intending to use Li You as the fuse to burn this fire on him?

Don't others know that he can help Li You distinguish with just one sentence? Is it a fake imperial history, isn't he the most right to speak? There are countless real imperial histories under his hands, do you need to send fake ones?

It's a very simple thing, but it's not easy to be played with like this... The death of six prisoners is not a big deal, but if the death of six prisoners deliberately wants to implicate him, it will be a big deal.

The wisdom cultivated over many years of his career in the sea was activated, and the more he thought about it, the more complicated it became, and the more he thought about it, the more meaningful it became... Lord Zhao Liangren's thinking is very right, infinitely close to the truth, but unfortunately it is crooked from the root.

However, he is also familiar with these scheming, and he is easy to come by. immediately changed his mind and said: "The blood book is placed here, but the official will not come forward first." You go out in the bright light, swagger through the market for a few days, and let the official see who jumped out first. For example, you can go to Guozijian again. ”

When he arrived, Li You was bitter in his heart. Just now, Dazhong Cheng had promised to say that Ming Zhao played the right thing and quelled the rumors as soon as possible, which was very in line with his thoughts. But why did you suddenly change your mind?

Dazhongcheng's new idea was, to put it bluntly, a plan to lure the snake out of the hole, and he became a bait. actually asked him to act in a high-profile manner, which completely subverted his idea of being a low-key person with his tail between his legs.

Who is to blame for this? Li You couldn't wait to slap himself twice, if it weren't for his own troubles, he deliberately led the conversation to the Fei Sai Liquor and Guozijian incident, it would not have caused Dazhong Cheng to change his mind inexplicably. I really dug a hole and buried myself.

Li You was embarrassed: "The subordinate officials are short-sighted and shallow, and they are unfamiliar with personnel in the capital, so it is inevitable that they will miss the master's clever plan." ”

Zhao Liangren held up the letter and said: "In my brother's letter, you are capable and useful, but you can be driven. He has never been easy to praise people, so why should you be humble. ”

Damn, Second Master Zhao, it's good for you to show me my credit, why praise me for my ability... Li You continued to be embarrassed: "Xiaguan came to Beijing alone, and his strength was weak, and it was difficult to respond to unforeseen circumstances, for fear that he would miss the boss's major event." ”

Zhao Liangren arranged: "Okay, you are also a seventh-grade official, so there will be no accidents, presumably no one is so bold." If you don't feel at ease, I will send two guards to accompany you, and write a handwritten letter for you to carry. ”

Li You couldn't help shouting in his heart, people are going to Xu Shangshu, don't be sentimental, okay! Honestly do a good job of helping me defend this promising job!

But at this point, it's hard to ride a tiger. Li You began to think about what he would say if the truth of the matter was revealed... Do you want to take the initiative to speak out now and strive for forgiveness in confession?
