Chapter 13: The Eyes and Ears of the Son of Heaven
Emin likes to go to Dongdemen Qian Ji in the morning to have a cage of soup dumplings as breakfast, every time I go to Qian Ji, it is just the time when Qian Ji opens the shop on the street grinding scissors Lao Wang, it can be said that the wind and rain do not change, Emin is a very regular person with a board and a glance, and he is also a very principled person.
But today Emin broke the rules, half an hour late, not that he got up late, but was delayed at the T-junction on the street, the two splashed skins fought, blocked the crowds, Emin didn't like the people in the market to see the lively atmosphere, but how could he not squeeze it, so he broke his own rules, in his heart, he was really annoyed, if his own rules could not be kept, how to lead by example, upright dynasty?
Emin is the Guangdong Province Manchuria Inspector Imperial History, has the responsibility of impeaching the official evil, perfunctory Chen Zhidao, reviewing the criminal name, and picketing ceremonies, although it is only from the five officials, but it is to control the heavy with light, low position and weight, heavy reward and heavy punishment, supervise the illegal acts of local officials, not subject to the control of local officials, can directly give the emperor the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven.
Emin was deeply favored by the emperor and knew the way of the sage, taking simplicity as beauty and luxury as shame. Let's just talk about this xiaolongbao, if you want to say that the next person runs more quickly, he can definitely eat the umami that has just come out of the cage, but he is sympathetic to the next person, and he has to go three streets to eat breakfast. Of course, the family is another rhetoric, everyone scolds him for being stingy behind his back and reluctant to reward money.
And when the casual clothes went out of the house, Emin's robe must be patched with patches, so even if he ate xiaolongbao for three months in Qian Ji, Boss Qian and his buddies didn't know that this very ordinary-looking old man turned out to be Lord Yushi.
"Old man, you're late today!" Old acquaintance, buddy Ah San greeted with a smile, Ah San's thin shirt was unbuttoned, revealing a skinny chest, but no, this summer is coming in a blink of an eye.
Emin bowed slightly to the guy, walked to the window table, took off his robe and sat down slowly, dressed plainly, but his every move was like an official master, still so majestic.
Soon, a basket of steaming steamed buns was served, but Emin slowly tasted the appetizing tea, a cup of tea in the stomach, just picked up the chopsticks, the steamed buns were delicious and hot at that time, and they were the most delicious.
Drinking tea, E Min, as usual, stared at the pedestrians coming and going on the street outside the window, always feeling that something was wrong with Guangzhou City in the past two years, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
A small green sedan chair suddenly swayed out at the mouth of the alley opposite, two sedan chair drivers in front and back, and a housekeeper-like figure next to him, the light green silk robe was extremely bright, and the housekeeper was dressed like this, it seemed that it was not an ordinary family.
Before Emin could turn his eyes away, he suddenly saw that the sedan chair man in front of the small sedan chair suddenly stumbled, and the bar carrying the sedan chair broke off with a "click", and the sedan chair also leaned forward violently, and the owner of the sedan chair fell out at once.
"Hah!" Someone next to him laughed, thinking that he thought it was funny when he saw this scene.
Emin frowned slightly, and felt that the lively people were bored, and he wanted to turn his eyes away, but he was stunned, but he saw the sedan chair person who fell to the ground wearing a white gauze skirt, raised his face, blonde hair and blue eyes, and turned out to be a woman.
The steward next to the sedan chair saw that it was not good, and almost dragged the Yi woman into the sedan chair, and the diners of the Qian Ji bun shop ran out in a hurry, and the pedestrians on the street suddenly seemed to be beaten with chicken blood, and they all rushed to the alley.
"Ah San, you have grown up today!" Boss Qian nodded at Ah San, with a look of approval, because Ah San didn't go out to watch the excitement because of Ah San's matter.
Ah San muttered: "What's there to see, I'm afraid of going to cause trouble, do you know whose house the foreign woman came out of?" I'm afraid to scare you if I say it. ”
"Who's family, whose master, I'll go and smash him in a while!" A staggering young man said as he checked out.
Ah San pursed his lips disdainfully, "Give you ten guts, you are also worthy?" ”
"I said you don't sell it, whose house is that?" Boss Qian was also a little curious.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were looking at him, Ah San couldn't help but be proud, looked around, and said with a smile: "Don't frighten you when you say it, you are all old customers, don't spread the word, don't hurt me Ah San......"
"Just say it!" Boss Qian's eyes widened, and he really wanted to pull off this lazy boy's head.
The boss glared, but Ah San still looked like a hippie smile, coughed, and everyone held their breath, Ah San spit out four words, "General Guangzhou"
Looking at the chaos outside, E Min, who was already frowning very tightly, heard Ah San's words, as if he had been pricked with a needle, and almost jumped up: "Ah San, don't talk nonsense!" ”
Boss Qian also scolded: "You can't be reliable with your words? ”
Ah San saw that the big guy looked incredulous, and said hurriedly: "This is what their subordinates themselves said, and the little white face who often comes to our shop to buy steamed buns is called Rondo, but the imperial city is a white flag person!" "Speaking of this, there is a look of envy.
Emin slowly sat back in place, and at this time, the crowd of onlookers watching the "Yi Woman" suddenly dispersed, thinking that it was dispersed, and a diner who had just run out came back with a scolding and scolded: "Scratch the foreign woman, it's really fucking shameless." ”
"Brother Chunsheng, what's wrong?" The young man who had just checked out and declared that he was going to "smash someone's house" asked him.
The diner sneered on his face, leaned over to the young man and whispered a few words, faintly heard the words "General Guangzhou", the bun shop was quiet for a while, and immediately everyone was busy, and no one mentioned this stubble, as if the thing that the woman had just fallen on the streets of Guangzhou City and could make the people of the city congested had not happened at all.
Emin couldn't sit still anymore, this is worth it! As a general in Guangzhou, he has broken the law, and he is fooling around with a woman, and the whole city is even more noisy. How did you get the Qing Dynasty right?
He didn't eat the buns anymore, threw more than a dozen big coins on the table, and rushed out of the Qian Ji bun shop.
……
In the flower hall of the Liangguang Governor's Mansion, Ye Mingchen was slowly tasting tea, while E Min was making a generous statement, counting the three major sins of the Guangzhou general, and asking the Governor to join him in the fold.
"Won't it?" Ye Mingchen felt that this matter was really a bit unbelievable, Fu Liang would be so confused?
Emin's beard was raised high, and he exhaled angrily: "Lord Zhangtai, I have inquired clearly, but I didn't wronged him, that Yi woman is a secret prostitute on Hong Kong Island, with a name and a surname, you can find out when you check it!" ”
Ye Mingchen's fingers tapped lightly on the table, the matter in front of him was really a little difficult, he pondered for a while, and said slowly: "In the opinion of this official, it is better to be cautious, General Fuliang has only been in Guangzhou for a few days?" Now it's an excerpt, this ......" subtext hasn't been spoken, doesn't this slap the emperor's face?
E Min's face turned red: "It seems that the master of Taiwan only thinks about his own future!" ”
Ye Mingchen frowned slightly, but he couldn't help E Min's temper, he pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "Lord Shiyu, one person is short, and the old brother still doesn't send this fold, you can give one person a look at it first." ”
Emin was stunned and said, "Who do you want to show it?" ”
Ye Mingchen smiled and spit out a few words: "Deputy Capital Tongjingxiang." ”
E Min immediately looked disapproving, of course he knew Jingxiang's roots, Huang Daizi, Prince Zheng's elder brother, a hairy boy who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it.
Ye Mingchen said with a smile: "When the Lord Servant Yu saw this Brother Jing, he knew that he was quick and insightful, and he would definitely be able to make you and me suddenly open." ”
Ye Zhao naturally wouldn't know that in just a few meetings, Ye Mingchen would give him such a high evaluation, how could this family surnamed Ye be a simple person?
