Chapter 16: Pity the Witch Queen

Ye Xiaotian was blown and sent to the Temple of Literature to worship Confucius, and then returned to the government with Li Xundao. Mao Wenzhi and the others followed all the way as if watching a big show, and halfway Ye Xiaotian took a gap and said to Hua Yunfei: "I'll go to the mansion for a banquet, it's not good to take you along." You take them around, and when it's time to eat, find a place to eat. ”

Ye Xiaotian pulled him aside again, and whispered: "This person is not very good at talking and doing things, and that old guy will only deal with insects in winter, and he is very sophisticated, although you are young, you need to think more about it, and don't let them cause trouble." ”

Hua Yunfei said: "Don't worry, eldest brother, junior brother should do his best, and he won't let them cause trouble." ”

Ye Xiaotian nodded, and raised his voice to Yaoyao: "Yaoyao is good, you follow Brother Yunfei to play first, Brother Xiaotian is going to the prefect's yamen, and tomorrow I will be free, and then I will accompany you to the suburbs to play." Yao Yao nodded obediently in agreement, and several people stopped and watched Ye Xiaotian leave.

In the prefect's yamen, Zhang Duo set up a banquet in the third hall, and after Li Xundao and Ye Xiaotian thanked the prefect, they sat down in turn. The pot-bellied Governor Zhang sat on it and talked and laughed with the two of them.

Ye Xiaotian originally thought that Yifu Zhengyin was a hereditary magnate, and he must be an extremely self-conscious person, and it was inevitable to make a big show of official authority, but he didn't want this Zhang Zhifu to have no stalgam, and he didn't have the slightest taste of literature when he spoke, which made people feel good.

After thirty years of wine and five flavors of food, Governor Zhang drank happily, suddenly grabbed a sweat towel and wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, and said excitedly: "Such a good feast, how can there be wine without poetry." Suddenly the poetry in this mansion is booming, do you two want to listen to it? ”

Li Xundao was shocked: "The prefect is about to have a masterpiece come out again?" The lower officials should listen to themselves. ”

The sedan chair was carried by everyone, and Ye Xiaotian also said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, the students are listening." ”

Zhang Zhifu patted his two fat hands, and then two powerful house slaves came over and pulled Zhang Zhifu out of the circle chair. Governor Zhang was pacing in the court, and Ye Xiaotian whispered to Li Xundao: "Teacher." The prefect is a hereditary official, and he can enter the government without the imperial examination, but after all, he is from a family, and his learning must be excellent. ”

Li Xundao smiled and said: "Yes, although Tongren is relatively closed, the Tian family has been the ruler of Sizhou and Sinan since the Sui Dynasty, thus bringing my Confucian culture here. Although there are few ordinary people who are literate, the customs of the powerful people are the same as those of China. ”

Ye Xiaotian suddenly sighed, although he felt that his culture was limited, and he might not be able to appreciate the master's masterpiece, he also made a gentle and elegant appearance, and raised his glass in his hand. I was glad to listen to Governor Zhang's poetry. Governor Zhang patted his forehead, paced a few steps in the hall, and suddenly said happily: "There is, you listen." ”

Governor Zhang stretched out his hand and pointed to the iron tree in front of the hall, and said loudly: "If the thousand-year-old iron tree does not bloom, is it not yet a thousand years old?" The talent is only nineteen, you are not as good as him! ”

"Ahem, cough, cough, ......"

Ye Xiaotian almost didn't squirt out a sip of wine. Hurriedly closed his mouth, choking and coughing, his face swollen and red as an egg, he hurriedly raised his sleeve and wiped the tears held out of the corners of his eyes, for fear that something inappropriate would be seen by Governor Zhang, annoying the emperor of the soil.

Li Xundao's expression was calm, and he clapped his hands and shouted: "What a poem! Good poetry! The prefect's poem uses trees as a metaphor for people, which is meaningful. The aftertaste is timeless and thought-provoking, and it is really a good poem. ”

Ye Xiaotian looked at Li Xundao in shock: "This person is so shameless!" There is no literati style at all, such a fleshy sycophant, I will never be able to say it if I change it. You are also a teacher of Fuxue, a teacher, do you still want to be faced? This...... Also called poetry? ”

Li Xun clapped with a smile on his face. Quietly handed a handkerchief to Ye Xiaotian and said, "Wipe your nostrils, the wine will squirt out." ”

Governor Zhang laughed and returned to his seat triumphantly. He glanced at Ye Xiaotian and said, "What does Ye Xiucai think about this poem?" ”

"Good! Great! ”

Ye Xiaotian hurriedly took away the handkerchief that was wiping his nostrils, and said with admiration on his face: "The student has long heard that the prefect is guarding Tongren, and he is self-vibrating with literary algae, and his voice is galloping. The adult's poem, pleasant and affectionate, meaningful, today when I heard it, the rumors are true. ”

When Governor Zhang heard this, he was even more happy, and pointed at Ye Xiaotian with a laugh: "You are a knowledgeable person, well, this poem in this mansion is indeed profound, and only a talented reader like you can taste the meaning." You are so young and so talented, it would be a pity to just be a showman. This government intends to guarantee that you will go to Guiyang Mansion to participate in the tribute test, and win a person for me Tongren to come back, what do you think? ”

"Huh?"

When Ye Xiaotian heard this, he suddenly felt like swallowing a bitter gourd, and his mouth was almost grinning: "I would have known that slapping sycophants has such strict consequences, and I have to stick to the discipline if I am killed!"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

At Li Qiuchi's mansion, Li Qiuchi and Xu Boyi sipped fragrant tea and discussed strategies to deal with Ye Xiaotian.

Li Qiuchi smiled and said, "This Ye Xiaotian's problem is really a big deal. The first major sin is to assume office. ”

Xu Boyi said: "Not bad! It's just that there are too many people involved in this matter, and the Ai Dianshi who he pretended to be has been rewarded by the imperial court and moved back to his hometown as a county official for burial. When this matter is poked out, even the imperial court will have a dull face, and it is likely to be dealt with in a low-key manner. When the time comes, not only will Huxian be offended by us, but even the princes of the court will inevitably have opinions about you and me. ”

Li Qiuchi nodded approvingly and said, "Not bad." Then the second one is to take the test by impersonation. According to the regulations of our dynasty, a child's grandfather needs to have lived in the local area for more than 20 years, have a grave, and have a farm before he can participate in the examination. ”

Xu Boyi hurriedly reminded: "Brother Qiuchi, don't forget, the Sichuan, Shaanxi, Yunnan, and Guizhou regions are somewhat special, so the Ministry of Rites has granted permission, and those who have moved to the territory to complete the Nading grain for 20 years can also refer to it." ”

Li Qiuchi begged at him and said, "Could it be that their family has been in Guizhou for 20 years?" ”

Xu Boyi was just showing off his knowledge, and when the goal was achieved, he patted his forehead and said softly: "The little brother is confused." ”

Li Qiuchi smiled smugly, and then muttered again: "This one, you can use it." Just use it as a backup. ”

Xu Boyi said: "What does Brother Qiuchi mean? ”

Li Qiuchi said viciously: "Fake reference, once it is found, it is just a deprivation of fame, and it will never be allowed to be referenced." But I can't kill him! ”

Xu Boyi said: "So, Brother Qiuchi is planning to make a fuss about the Xue family's murder case?" ”

Li Qiuchi said: "Not bad! ”

Xu Boyi frowned slightly and said, "This matter is also a little difficult. ”

Li Qiuchi said: "How do you say this? ”

Xu Boyi said: "When I asked Xue Liu, her daughter interjected several times, and it seemed that what Xue Liu said was not true. I listened to what her daughter said, and it seems that it was someone from the Yang family in Jingzhou who killed her father. This old woman insisted that it was Ye Xiaotian, whose words were not true. It's hard to say right now. ”

Li Qiuchi raised his face and said thoughtfully: "The Yang family in Jingzhou? Jingzhou Yang family. Oh, I remembered. ”

As a lawyer, Li Qiuchi knows all the powerful forces in Guizhou and the factions they belong to, and Xu Boyi said that the Yang family in Jingzhou does not belong to Guizhou. But Li Qiuchi, who is well-read and strong-remembered, also remembered some connections. Li Qiuchi said: "Jingzhou Yang family, isn't that a branch of the Banzhou Yang family?" ”

Xu Boyi was stunned for a moment and said, "Is there such a thing?" ”

Li Qiuchi said: "Absolutely can't be wrong! ”

Xu Boyi said happily: "That's it!" How good the Banzhou Yang family is, among the four heavenly kings, the strength of the Banzhou Yang Heavenly King has faintly reached the point of sitting on the second and looking at one, and now it is only slightly inferior to the An family. Whether it is the Criminal Department or the Political Division, who dares to provoke the trouble of Yang Tianwang. ”

A grim smile flashed across Li Qiuchi's face. said: "Therefore, the government does not want to involve the Yang family." However, the girl of the Xue family is indeed a little weird, and she seems to have something to do with Ye Xiaotian, if she is the victim's daughter and testifies to the murder suspect, it will be a trouble after all. When the time comes, we have to control her, lest we make her ruin our big business. ”

Xu Boyi said: "What Brother Qiuchi said is very reasonable. ”

The two of them had made up their minds, and sat down for a while. And they went their separate ways. Xu Boyi had just sat down when he returned to the political secretary, and the little guy who was waiting for him to live stepped forward to report: "Master, someone from Tianfu just came, please take the time to go." ”

As soon as Xu Boyi heard that it was Tianfu's summons, how dare he wait for anything to be free, so he immediately got up and ran to Tianfu. The Tian family competed with Ertian and fell into the calculations of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di. has already suffered a great loss of vitality, although he ranks third among the four major families of An Song Tian Yang, his strength is actually at the bottom. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the Tian family is still a political force that cannot be underestimated in the officialdom of Guizhou.

Tianfu. Covering an area of 300 acres, if the whole mansion building overlooks from the air, it is like a tiger that chooses people and devours, Tianfu is a mansion, eight courtyards and nine floors of the building pattern, one by one the doors go in, so that people have a feeling of "Houmen is as deep as the sea".

In a quiet and elegant courtyard in the eighth courtyard, Xu Boyi hurried over, took off his official boots, only wore cloth socks, and under the guidance of the maid, walked along the wooden floor corridor to the end of a house facing the mountains and streams.

The maid stopped and said respectfully, "Miss, Xu Boyi has arrived." There was no answer in the room, but as soon as the sound of the piano stopped, she plucked it twice, the maid bowed slightly, stepped aside, Xu Boyi thanked her, and walked into the room with bated breath.

The room layout is very elegant, a warm and elegant guest room outside, there is a screen of red mevo snow on one side to cut off the space behind, and there is a portal in the depths of the front, but it is a platform built in the forest and mountains, there is a big tree on the platform, and a woman in white under the tree has her back to this side, wiping the strings lightly.

This woman is Tian Miaowen, who calls herself a pitiful evil queen, but outsiders secretly call her the White Tiger, and now she has been married to three husbands, and all three husbands have died bizarrely and violently in the days before the wedding sticker was married, and since then the murderous reputation has spread far and wide, and no one dares to ask her anymore.

Xu Boyi glanced up at Tian Miaowen's back, through a beaded curtain, she still felt soft and charming, where did she look like a tiger, Xu Boyi didn't dare to look more, as if the woman had a pair of eyes behind her and could see him, she immediately looked at her nose and nose, stood still respectfully, and said, "Miss." ”

The woman's slender ten fingers pressed down gently, stopped the sound of the piano, and said in a soft and beautiful voice: "During the time you have been in the Teruma Division, I have been paying attention to your watch, which is very good. ”

Xu Boyi was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Miss Xie praises." ”

The woman said again: "However, it is easy to arrange an idle position for you in this Shuixi, if you want to go further, even if you are not a jinshi, you must have a meritorious name to be promoted, after all, you are not a descendant of my Tian family, and it is not good to be an official directly." Now that the tribute test is coming, I want you to quit the Zhaoma and come back with the exam, how about it? ”

Xu Boyi said respectfully: "But listen to Miss's orders!" ”

The woman gently plucked the strings a few times, and said lightly: "In this case, you go, prepare for the exam well, if you win, I will give you a serious future!" ”
