There is still more than a month to go before His Majesty's birthday, although His Majesty has repeatedly emphasized that there is no need to be extravagant and wasteful, but it is limited to the people, and the Imperial City has begun to prepare for His Majesty's birthday.

The lantern colored ball has been hung on the corner of the eaves of the palace wall of the imperial city early, and someone passed under the eaves, and the high brim of the hat was accidentally wrapped around the tie of the colored ball.

"Zhang Tianshi." Someone reminded him to gesture above his head, "Hat." ”

The eaves of the palace wall are of different heights, and this palace wall is not high, and the officials with long bodies are often entangled by the hanging embroidery thread of the hanging colored ball lanterns.

This is also something that can't be helped, and you can't say that the palace people are wrong to hang colored ball lanterns on His Majesty's birthday because of this little thing!

Zhang Jie, who was reminded, immediately smiled and took off his hat, untied the brim of the hat that was wrapped with the tie of the colored ball, and then thanked the person who reminded him: "Thank you, Lord Di, for reminding him." ”

"It's okay." Dali Temple Qing Di Fangxing smiled and waved his hand.

The position of Dali Siqing, no matter how tactful he is, will still offend people. Di Fangxing has always adhered to the idea of not offending people until he has to, especially in the face of such Yin and Yang Division officials who seem to be upright and ignore political affairs but are very close to His Majesty, saying that they ignore political affairs, even if they are in the imperial city, how can they really have nothing to do with political affairs?

Su Rili met these people from the Yin and Yang Division, and if they can sell well, they will try to sell as well as possible, and they will not be offended.

After smiling, Di Fangxing turned his head and continued to talk to a few colleagues around him.

"Even the craftsmen who are in charge of the wooden mechanisms have newly brought in women, and I heard that they are in charge of the bookkeeping of the craftsmen......"

Several colleagues frowned when they heard this: "In the final analysis, it's just to please Your Majesty." ”

The empress was in power, probably because she was a woman, and before she ascended the throne, she suffered a lot because of her identity as a woman.

The female officials appointed at the beginning are really not ordinary women, such as the Great Heavenly Master, how many sons in the world can compare? But over time, in order to please His Majesty, the subordinates began to take the wrong path, no matter which department, they must put in two female officials to please Your Majesty.

If it can really be used, it's fine, but some of them are put in except for taking the money, but there is no need at all. For example, if the craftsman is the supervisor to keep the accounts, there are many small officials who were originally the craftsmen to keep the accounts, and it is a waste of the court to bring in two more.

"But now, apart from our Dali Temple, let's see which yamen has not included women as officials?" Some officials were a little worried, "Originally, there were craftsmen and supervisors like us, but now the craftsmen and supervisors have also found two female bookkeepers, but it seems that our Dali Temple is still following the first emperor's set, discriminating against women, and I am afraid that it will not be good to reach Your Majesty's ears." ”

Di Fangxing couldn't help but sigh and said, "Your Majesty originally had good intentions to let those strange women who were raised in the boudoir show up, but now it is too much, but it disturbs the original intention." The craftsman is a supervisor, so that our Dali Temple is particularly afraid that it is not good. ”

After all, there are not a few officials punished under Dali Temple, and the relationship between ancient times is the most complicated, and there are many relationships that you can't see.

Special is not necessarily a good thing for Dali Temple.

"Then why don't we get two bookkeeping female officers too?" Someone suggested, "It's not difficult to do these little things, and ordinary women should do the same." ”

Di Fangxing rolled his eyes: "The craftsman can keep accounts, what do we remember in Dali Temple?" Remember the felons who were caught? Where do I find a job for her? ”

The serious cases in Dali Temple are piled up, and it is not easy to remember even the ordinary record case files.

Several officials looked at each other and sighed: It is really not easy for Dali Temple to find an idle job.

"Master Di."

At that moment, someone's voice rang out.

Several officials turned around to look over, and saw Zhang Tianshi, who was arranging the brim of his hat, greeted them with a smile, and said to Di Fangxing: "Take a step to speak." ”

……

……

Qiao Ran is no stranger to the prison of Jinling Mansion, she has been here several times.

The inside is also clean and bright, I don't know if Zhen Shiyuan, the Yin of Jinling Mansion, is too good or the people of Jinling are simple, most of the usual Jinling Mansion prisons are empty, and they have been more lively in recent times.

A villain who killed more than a dozen people without changing his face and dismembered his flesh and bones, no matter how kind she was on the outside, the jailer guarding the door did not dare to be sloppy, put heavy shackles on her, and locked her in the innermost prison of the government for felons.

Not far from this cage, in an ordinary cell, the old lady Fang, who was sentenced to be beheaded after the autumn, was imprisoned.

Qiao Ran has no impression of this old lady Fang, and she has not seen this old lady Fang since she was reborn, but she seems to have seen it once in the long memory of the original owner, but at that time, the original owner was still young, and the impression of the old lady on the other side was limited to an indifferent old man.

If you want to see Old Madam Fang, you must pass through Old Madam Fang's cell, and before she can get close to Old Madam Fang's cell, she sees a person on the haystack suddenly pounce and shout at her through the cell door.

"I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone!"

The old man, who suddenly appeared in prison uniform and with a few straws on his head, was now full of horror, and kept repeating this sentence to her through the cell door.

It's not like a person mixed with the indifferent old man in my memory.

Qiao Ran's feet froze, and Tang Zhongyuan on the side snorted and said, "You didn't kill anyone, it's always true that you don't report it?" ”

The old man who shouted "I didn't kill anyone" was stunned when he heard this, and then muttered: "I...... I'm afraid. ”

"I'm afraid I have several children with the one in it?" Tang Zhongyuan frowned and said.

Extrapolating by age, several masters of the Fang family were born after that incident, is this called fear?

If you say that you do it yourself, the one in it is not hands-on, it is all done by his subordinates, and these old ladies also know it, and even watch from the side, this is called not killing?

"The evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?"

Old Man Fang sat down on his stomach on the cell door.

Does this party not understand the law inside and outside? Seeing this, Tang Zhongyuan couldn't help but shake his head, and said to Qiao Ran: "Miss Qiao, let's go!" ”

Qiao Ran nodded and walked forward with Tang Zhongyuan.

"Since the accident, several juniors haven't come to see him, for fear that he will also get into such trouble," Tang Zhongyuan said as he walked, "In the past, he was very good at listening to books, and he had both ability and political integrity, but now it looks like it's just an empty shelf." ”

Striving to be like that, isn't it a good house? After living for so long, I haven't seen any prosperity, but it is declining day by day.

While speaking, the two had already walked to the innermost cell where felons were kept, Tang Zhongyuan unlocked the cell door and said to Qiao Ran: "Miss Qiao, I'm just waiting outside, if there's anything, just shout." ”
