Chapter 60: Fame

"You forgot, Lord Zhou married the daughter of that corrupt official. Now the court commends it, but the corrupt official has committed a heinous crime, and he must be connected to the nine clans, although Lord Zhou has a great merit in bringing down the corrupt official, but it is okay to pardon Lord Zhou and his heirs, but Mrs. Zhou really can't. ”

"What should I do?" Half Moon said nervously, "Can't you be pardoned?" Anyway, Lord Zhou is also meritorious. ”

Looking at Banyue's face that was pouting with anger, Li Xin rubbed the broken hair on her forehead, "If the law can be changed by anyone, then it is not that the law is greater than the sky." ”

"But master, Lord Zhou is a good person!" Half Moon struggled, "Can't you just open the net?" ”

Li Xin shook his head, "If it were someone else, he might be eager to get rid of his wife who didn't help him as soon as possible, this Lord Zhou is indeed not an ordinary person." He disobeyed the emperor's order, gave up the opportunity to be promoted to three levels in a row, and wanted to save his wife. ”

Half Moon's eyes lit up, "Master, what's the back?" ”

"Later, the emperor was moved by Lord Zhou's infatuation, and not only exempted Mrs. Zhou from her crimes, but also deliberately stabbed the house on Zhengyang Street."

Half Moon glanced at the narrow streets and alleys outside the window, "How did the emperors of the previous dynasty slam the door?" ”

Li Xin smiled, "Actually, there was a saying among the people at that time. ”

Half Moon's eyes lit up, "What do you say?" ”

"Lord Zhou is only twenty-five years old, handsome, young and promising, and was selected as a concubine by the emperor, so Mrs. Zhou naturally became an obstacle, but Lord Zhou is unwilling to abandon his bad wife, and would rather anger Long Yan and be degraded than win to marry the princess."

"Lord Zhou is also too affectionate and righteous, how can there be such a good man in the world~ I really envy Mrs. Zhou." Banyue continued to ask, "Master, since you have offended the emperor and the princess, why hasn't Lord Zhou given the house yet?" ”

This is thanks to the princess's righteousness, she knew that her father was going to condemn the emperor when she stepped forward to stop her, leaving Lord Zhou. But the emperor was still angry that his favorite daughter was rejected by Lord Zhou, so he changed the original reward to a house in this alley. ”

"This emperor is so stingy~" Half Moon said as she ate something.

Li Xin doesn't see it that way, he can get such a reputation, and this Lord Zhou is not an ordinary person.

first swallowed his anger and made compromises, and then he was ruthless and made it out of his father-in-law who promoted him, and the latter drama of giving up the princess's love for the sake of friendship with his wife won a good reception from the world.

However, in Li Xin's view, there are unknown things behind all fame, and connecting them all is the truth of the matter.

"Master, the carriage has been parked, we can go down." Tilting Moon got the news from the outside and informed her.

Li Xin looked at the somewhat hesitant Tilt Moon and couldn't help asking, "But what's wrong?" ”

Tilting Moon hesitated a little, "Master, we have a sudden visit, and we don't have any preparations, wouldn't it be bad to come to the door empty-handed?" ”

Li Xin shook his head and explained with a smile, "If we pay our respects in advance, I'm afraid these imperial histories will avoid it early and won't see me at all." In addition, if we bring gifts, I am afraid that even if we agree to meet in advance, we will also be kept out. The most important thing for literati is reputation, and we not only have to go empty-handed, but also go empty-handed. ”

"Master, is this hour too early? I feel like I've just come out of the yamen, will there be no one in the house? ”

"The imperial historians don't like to form a party, at most they meet and chat a few words, and it is impossible to make an appointment for a drink or something like my father. And seven or eight out of ten in the imperial history have no spare money, and some of the silver is also used to help the people, where is there still silver. ”

Banyue stretched out her hand, and Li Xin motioned to her.

"The master is not right, the son of the imperial doctor is quite rich, I saw it when I went to the street the day before yesterday, and the people were talking about it at that time."

"That's the private property of Mrs. Imperial History, not Imperial Doctor's."

"I see, if the imperial historians don't have the silver, do they have to care about the lady?"

Li Xin looked at Banyue and looked like he didn't think it was a big deal, and he knew that this kid was holding back in his heart.

"Manly husbands, even more so among the literati, don't like this, don't wait for a while and don't keep the door, ask the maids in other people's houses about this, if it spreads, it won't make people the worst."

"The master, the slave and the maid just think about it, there is no such thing." Half Moon grinned.

Li Xin gently knocked on the door of Banyue's head, "Well, there's no such thing, but remember not to talk nonsense." The things that you whispered between you and Tianyue at the gate of Xie Mansion before, but anyone who has some internal kung fu can hear it. ”

"What? Master, do you hear me? Half Moon was surprised.

Li Xin nodded, "I can hear it clearly word for word." ”

"Master, your kung fu has grown too fast, right? Didn't you hear it before? ”

Li Xin touched her nose, last time it was half a month when she was casually deceiving, and every time she thought that this girl was still serious, she thought she couldn't hear it.

"Be careful what you say in the future."

"It's the master, just say it in the house."

Li Xin originally wanted to remind the government to be careful, after all, in the realm of Chang'an, he would inevitably have some omissions and infiltrate some suspicious people. But thinking about Half Moon's temperament, forget it, you have to give a little sweetness to those who beat their own ideas, what is the appearance of Half Moon.

"Hmm."

"Master, let's get out of the car."

Half Moon and Tilting Moon followed behind Li Xin on the left and right, and there were two rows of guards behind them, such a big battle quickly attracted the attention of the entire alley.

As soon as I inquired that the maid was coming, many doors were quickly closed.

"The lord just sued the maid a few days ago, isn't this time here to settle accounts?" The little porter leaned against the doorway panting, and said to the same brother next to him.

"Maybe you're here to see you?"

"How is it possible, if you see how you are empty-handed, you don't have anything with you, you look at the two rows of men behind the maiden, looking tall and slender, there must be a bunch of tendons and flesh on this body. There is also the woman next to the female marquis, she is the strongest among this bunch of people, it seems that this is the maid who smashed the door of Xie's house in today's rumors. ”

"What?! It's not going to be here to smash our house, is it? The porter was frightened all of a sudden, "Our door hasn't been repaired last time, it's not as good as the prime minister's mansion, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand it twice." ”

The two porters suddenly panicked even more.

"What to do? What to do? ……”

"Teng Teng Tengβ€”"

The two of them jumped up in fright, "What should I do?" Why is it our house, just say that the lord should not scold too harshly, look, the first one to find is to praise our house, as the saying goes, kill the chicken to the monkey, we must be the chicken. ”

"I heard that Xie Mansion was smashed before it was opened, if we don't open it......"

The two of them looked at the trembling door, and immediately said, "You go to report to Mrs. first, I'll open the door first, our house can't afford to repair the door." ”
