Chapter 48: Getting Carried Away

The Lehu system began in the Northern Wei Dynasty, not during the Ming Dynasty. Degrading the wife and daughter of the offender to a happy household is a means of punishment.

The Department of Rites is subordinate to the Ministry of Rites, and it is the place in charge of ritual music, and after the wives and daughters of those criminals are demoted to the Department of Religion, they will choose the young and beautiful ones to be trained, which is the music play. was originally a famous lady and a noble birth, but now she shows up to sing and dance to entertain people, which is an act that humiliates the ancestors and is a great punishment.

The main task of the Department of Education is to train singing and dancing girls, of course, this kind of place is more prone to some affairs between men and women than other places, but to say that the daily reception of customers, the criminal female dependents are extremely ravaged, that is the rumors spread by the people.

The Department of Education is an official office, which is not open to the common people, and is mainly used to deal with official exchanges. Put yourself in your shoes and think about it, which official lacks women? Everyone is the same kind, and today when someone else is unlucky, you go to bully his wife and daughter, and you don't want to leave a way out for yourself?

If the downfall is against him, then he has to avoid suspicion, even if he doesn't cherish his feathers, he has to guard against the words of the bereaved people, and the political opponents will make a fuss about it. What's more, the officials who have entered the eighteenth layer of hell are not guaranteed to be rehabilitated.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang made a rule that officials strictly forbade prostitutes, so that even if officials were prostitutes, they would not go to this kind of government-run workshop. However, those who are official slaves are not necessarily qualified to be musicians, their posture is not graceful enough, their singing voice is not graceful enough, and their faces are not beautiful enough, you don't want to do it, you are not qualified.

Therefore, the placement of official slaves is mainly divided into the following parts: first, women whose appearance and posture meet the standards are kept as musicians, maikos, and singers; inferior but of the right age can be a maid; As for those who are ugly, fat, and old, they can only do some rough work. Men are all slaves.

In addition, there is another kind of disposal, that is, to send it to the family of the relatives as slaves, which is much better than being a happy household in the teaching department, and the family of the country will be more tolerant of people from the official eunuchs, on the other hand. Once you please your master, although you are still a slave and a steward or something, you are actually more comfortable than the homes of ordinary people.

Unless it is a heinous crime, an official will not be punished by confiscating his family and degrading his family to an official slave, and in any dynasty, there are very few people who dare to commit heinous crimes, so it has been a long time since there have been no newcomers in the Jiaofang Division.

Most of the Lehu, who are now subordinate to the Jiaofang Division, were taken over from the Yuan Dynasty at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China. There are also generations of family members who have been demoted to Lehu for committing serious crimes, once they become Lehu, their children and grandchildren will be Lehu for generations, even if the dynasty is changed, the new dynasty will not raise their status.

Today, the Department of Education sent a large group of people, saying that they were the families of the convicts. The Department of Teaching and Workshop has ambassadors, deputy envoys, harmony langs, left and right Shao music, left and right Shao music and other official positions, and the ambassador is naturally an official with full authority in charge of personnel management.

Today's ambassador is Pang Bohan. The envoy was a eunuch. Probably because there are too many women in the teaching department, and most of the Yingying Yanyan are beautiful, so in the imperial court system, the position of ambassador has always been held by eunuchs. Avoid self-theft by guards.

Since taking office, the envoy has not dealt with the family of a new convict, and he has to go through the previous regulations to grasp how to make arrangements and arrangements. But there's no hurry. The first thing he needs to know is:

Who is the one who committed? What is the background? How likely is a comeback? Is there any comrade who is an official in the court? He must first understand these things, and if there is a need to form a good relationship, he will try to show kindness

The huge envoy is under the control of the bells and drums in the palace. The business is under the control of the Ministry of Rites. He changed out of his official uniform, put on a eunuch robe, and was about to enter the palace to explore the details of the Ye family, when Tao Xixi, the host and guest of the Ministry of Rites, and Tao Xixi, the director of the Qing Officials Division, came to the door.

Seeing that the huge envoy had changed into eunuch clothes, Director Tao said, "What, the huge envoy wants to enter the palace?" ”

When Director Tao saw that it was his boss, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "It turned out to be the principal, and the lower official was about to enter the palace to do some chores, but I don't know if the adult is coming, what are the orders?" ”

The huge personnel is not under the control of the Ministry of Rites, so although he is a subordinate, he does not have to be too groveling to Tao. Director Tao smiled slightly, and said, "The huge envoy entered the palace, I'm afraid I want to inquire about the whereabouts of this criminal official surnamed Ye, right?" ”

The huge envoy's expression moved, and he hurriedly said: "My lord doesn't know, please don't hesitate to teach!" ”

The envoy said, baring his teeth and smiling: "Your Excellency, you also know that it is not easy for us to listen to things in the Teaching Workshop Division, sometimes you just do things in a proper manner, and it is difficult to guarantee that you will not offend people unconsciously, it's difficult!" ”

Director Tao smiled and said, "This family, there is no background, and there is no chance of a comeback, they have committed the first major crime among the ten unforgivables!" ”

The envoy was very shocked to hear that the ten heinous sins, which were aimed at monarchy, patriarchy, divine power and husband's power, were the core of the system in the feudal era, so they were listed as unforgivable serious crimes. The first of these is treason. Such a serious crime should have caused an uproar in the capital, but he didn't know anything about it.

Master Tao suddenly realized that he had lost his words, and hurriedly coughed and said: "You just know it in your heart, the court doesn't want to publicize this matter, if it spreads......"

The huge envoy hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, thank you, for your attention, the lower officials understand!" ”

Director Tao nodded, and said: "Among the people who are dialed today, you allocate some to the Three Kingdoms Uncle's Mansion, the Queen Mother gave the Uncle last year a house, and there are fewer envoys in the house." ”

The envoy is a eunuch in the inner court, but he absolutely cares about the people and things that the queen mother cares about, and when he heard what Director Tao said, he immediately agreed and said, "Yes!" The lower officials will do it, and they must choose some smart and cute-looking people. ”

Director Tao bowed his head and said, "Hmm! Among them, there is a person named Ye Xiaoan, who was named by Uncle Guo! ”

The huge envoy was stunned, but he didn't dare to ask the reason, but said: "Yes!" Xia Guan understands! ”

The crystal clear white jade cup, the wine in the cup is green and clear, exuding a quiet aroma, Li Xuancheng raised his glass and drank it all, this is not the first cup, the white jade-like clear and smooth cheeks have already been flushed with a faint flush, he blinked his eyes, his eyes were like morning stars, shining with a smile.

Li Xuancheng's favorite Jinyin wine, which is secretly made by the Crane Year Hall, drinks his favorite wine. Looking at Ye Xiao'an, who was kneeling in front of him with a panicked face, Li Xuancheng only felt that life was more comfortable than this.

Ye Xiaotian, who had repeatedly made him deflated, died, and he spent a sum of money to ask Wang Baihu to go to the edict prison to see it, when Ye Xiaotian was executed, he was already covered in rotten flesh, and he could only barely deduce from the outline of his body and the remaining strips of cloth stuck to the blurred flesh and blood that this was a person.

It's a shame not to be able to see that with your own eyes. But just relaying Wang Baihu's description from his subordinates made Li Xuancheng tremble with excitement. Now looking at Ye Xiaoan, who looked exactly like Ye Xiaotian, kneeling in front of him, Uncle Li seemed to see Ye Xiaotian bowing his head and surrendering to him.

"How can I manipulate him?" Uncle Li touched his smooth chin, thought seriously for a while, smiled slightly, and said, "Ye Xiaoan, do you know who I am?" ”

Ye Xiaoan was frightened, and said tremblingly: "Know...... You know, you ...... You are Uncle Guo. ”

Uncle Li Guo smiled. Then he asked, "Do you know why I brought you to my house?" ”

Ye Xiaoan stammered: "Pang ...... The huge envoy said...... said that Xiaomin was lucky, and it happened that there was a shortage of people in the uncle's mansion, so he asked Xiaomin to go to the uncle's mansion to do things well. Waiting for Uncle Haoguo is 10,000 times better than doing miscellaneous work in the Teaching Workshop Division. ”

Uncle Li Guo smiled and said, "That's right, what the huge envoy said is right, me and your second brother Ye Xiaotian." The friendship is very deep, and now that he is gone, I will definitely take good care of you for him. Haha, haha, hahaha......"

Uncle Li Guo laughed wildly, and Ye Xiaoan looked at him with a look on his face that wanted to flatter, but he didn't know what to do.

Uncle Li Guo laughed wildly, and the tears of laughter were about to fall, so he coughed and stopped, and after a long while, he looked at Ye Xiaoan again, and said, "Who else is with you to send this mansion as a slave?" ”

Ye Xiaoan said: "I...... My father, mother, and child, still ...... And one of my brother's concubines......"

Uncle Li Guo was stunned, why did he send the whole family of the old Ye family? After thinking about it, he knew that it must have been Master Tao who had passed the word, and the huge envoy didn't know what his intentions were, and he was afraid that he would be exposed, so he simply sent the Ye family and his family.

"It's good ......"

Uncle Li Guo poured another full glass, turned the wine glass, stared at the turquoise wine and thought secretly: "How can only one Ye Xiaoan be tortured to eliminate the hatred in my heart." Ye Xiaotian's concubine's room, I want to promise it to the ugliest and oldest servant in the house, Ye Xiaotian's father and mother I will torture him every day, so that he will not be able to live in peace under the nine springs, as for this Ye Xiao'an......"

Uncle Li Guo looked at Ye Xiao'an, who looked confused and uneasy: "Who told you to look exactly the same as Ye Xiaotian, you will be his stand-in and always be a slave by my side!" ”

Thinking of this, Uncle Li Guo slammed down with another glass of wine, and said drunkly: "Okay! Now that your family has arrived at my house, I will definitely take good care of you for Ye Xiaotian, an old friend. You go down, don't eat and drink for the past two days, clear your stomach, and I will ask the best knife master to help you move the knife, so as not to hurt your life. ”

Ye Xiaoan said in surprise: "The country ...... Uncle Guo, the little one is not sick, what kind of knife do you want to use? ”

Uncle Li had just poured a full glass of wine, and then raised his glass and said, "If you want to stay in the inner house and wait, how can you do it if you don't castrate?" The queen mother gave me less than ten eunuchs, which is not enough! ”

Eunuchs can only be used by the emperor and his family members, such as emperors, princes, princesses, etc., and relatives do not have this privilege, but Uncle Li has always been favored by the queen mother, and the eunuchs given by the queen mother are not arrogant. On this basis, Uncle Li Guo is to add one or two, and if the people in the house don't say it, how can outsiders know.

Besides, Uncle Li Guo at this time, his mind is already very different from normal, that is, without the premise that the Queen Mother gave him eunuchs to serve, he would try his best to torture "Ye Xiaotian" without reckless consequences.

Ye Xiaoan was shocked and cried: "Uncle Guo, I don't want to be a eunuch!" I don't want to be an egg man! Ask Uncle Guo for mercy, isn't Uncle Guo old with Xiaomin's brother? Please also ask Uncle Guo to raise your noble hand! ”

The sentence "a man without eggs" stimulated Li Xuancheng, Li Xuancheng stood up suddenly, slammed the white jade cup in his hand to the ground, and with a "snap", the jade cup exploded, Ye Xiaoan was so frightened that he hurriedly hugged his head, for fear that the fragments would splash on his face.

Uncle Li looked at him contemptuously and said, "Born of a mother, twin brothers, you are really too far behind your brother!" Yes, I have an old relationship with your second brother, but unfortunately, it is not an old friendship, but an old hatred! ”

Uncle Li approached Ye Xiaoan step by step, sneered and bent down, grabbed Ye Xiaoan's collar, Ye Xiaoan raised his head and looked at him pitifully.

Li Xuancheng gritted his teeth and said: "As a relative of the country, my uncle is favored by the queen mother, and he has always been given what he wants, who has ever rebelled?" Only your second brother doesn't take his uncle in his eyes, and he still designs to harm me and damage my reputation! DID YOU KNOW?

My uncle has been Taoist since he was a child, and he has been practicing wholeheartedly and ignoring world affairs, so although he is a relative, even the civil and military officials have always respected me! But in your brother, your uncle was humiliated again and again, which is something that has never happened in his life, do you know?

My uncle already looked down on Hongchen, but he fell in love with Miss Yingying at first sight, but who expected to be snatched away by your second brother, do you know? If it weren't for your second brother being an official in Huxian, how would your uncle have traveled thousands of miles there, and if he hadn't gone there, how would he have contracted a strange illness and ......?"

The more Li Xuancheng spoke, the more angry he became, and he pushed forward hard, pushing Ye Xiao'an, who was like chaff, to the ground, Ye Xiaoan pointed at Li Xuancheng in horror, and said in a trembling voice: "It turns out that you have a grudge against my second brother!" Don't...... Could it be that my family has suffered such a catastrophe, and it is ...... It turned out to be ......"

Li Xuancheng looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Hahahaha......, aren't you stupid!" ”

He bent down again, grabbed Ye Xiao'an's collar, pulled him in front of him, and sneered: "If I weren't the emperor's uncle, how could I lightly drug the emperor?" It was also thanks to my uncle who practiced pills since he was a child that he discovered this miraculous medicine that causes drowsiness!

The silver needle can't detect it, and the eunuch who tests the poison will only feel a little tired after eating two bites, and how can he suspect that it is poisonous. Your brother, is he so stupid that he thinks he can deal with me with a little cleverness? Hum! My uncle used a little trick to make him die without a place to be buried, ha! Haha......"

Li Xuancheng's handsome face distorted, and he laughed wildly at Ye Xiaoan, Ye Xiaoan trembled and said, "I see! I see......" he said, his trembling body suddenly quieted down, and his frightened and angry eyes calmed down, revealing a faint look of ridicule.

It's a pity that Li Xuancheng was looking up to the sky and laughing wildly, but he didn't see his expression.

Li Xuancheng laughed wildly and lowered his head, wanting to see Ye Xiaoan's desperate and sad expression, but as soon as he lowered his head, he saw a fist flying towards him with a bigger and bigger fist, and with a "bang", Li Xuancheng's head shook suddenly, he looked at Ye Xiaoan blankly, and two lines of red nosebleeds slowly flowed down.

With a "porphy" sound, Li Xuancheng fell on his back.

"Ye Xiaoan" got up from the ground, and with a flick of his fingers, a small insect sank into Li Xuancheng's body. "Ye Xiaoan" patted the dust on his body and muttered to himself: "What a damn, you can be justified if you ignore it, as if everyone else has borne you, this kind of mind is also worthy of being a man!" ”
