Chapter 241: A Shocking Painting ......
Half an hour later, Wei Feng was carried by a sedan chair to the gate of Fei Shangshu's Mansion.
As soon as he got off the sedan chair, the door on duty outside was startled: Is this a person or a ghost?
"Quick, take me in, I have something urgent to find Lord Fei...... Look at what, Lao Tzu is Wei Feng! ”
Wei Feng was emotional, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he began to spew blood foam.
Menzi didn't recognize who it was when his eyes widened, and he was taken aback when Wei Feng roared like this......
"Young Master Wei, are you ...... What's wrong with you? ”
"Don't talk nonsense...... Ouch ......"
In a hurry, Wei Feng covered his face and snorted in pain.
Menzi didn't dare to ask any more, and hurriedly led Wei Feng inside.
When he walked to the backyard, Fei You came to the small hall after being reported, and he couldn't help but be startled when he saw Wei Feng's appearance: "This ...... What's going on? ”
Wei Feng came from the bottom of his heart, knelt on the ground and cried, crying while adding fuel and vinegar to the black.
This guy lost several teeth, and when he spoke, he was bleeding and foaming, and his speech was slurred, which made Fei You extremely difficult to hear, but he still heard it clearly.
"Are you sure that it was Gu Ming from the Hanlin Academy who beat you?"
"Brother-in-law, the little one won't recognize the wrong person, and it was the official residence that the little one took him to that day......
He said that he would not let go of the small ones, and said...... Say ......"
Wei Feng pretended to swallow and vomit.
"Say what?"
"Say...... said that his brother-in-law is a big corrupt official, and he will definitely collect evidence, and his brother-in-law will ......"
"Presumptuous!"
Fei Yu slammed the table in anger.
"Brother-in-law, that kid also said that he would report to the court and check ...... Check our accounts......"
"It's against him! This kid relied on the emperor's little favor, and he didn't even put his official in his eyes...... Alright, you go back to heal first. ”
"But brother-in-law, that kid really wants to be more serious, I'm afraid it's ......"
", if you weren't doing anything, how could you get into such trouble?"
Seeing Fei You's anger, Wei Feng didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly retired.
However, he knew that Fei You could not be left alone, after all, if something happened to him, it would inevitably affect a group of people.
After Wei Feng left, a woman walked in lightly......
She is a concubine married by Fei You, and she is also Wei Feng's distant cousin.
"Master, what's going on with Wei Feng?"
"Hmph, this kid is in trouble!"
"Huh? Finally...... What's wrong? ”
"This kid provoked the ...... surnamed Gu"
"The surname Gu? Master, do you mean Gu Ming, the newly appointed champion of the Hanlin Academy? ”
"That's right, Wei Feng's kid is probably obsessed with lust and provoked the maid ring in Gu Ming's mansion, but Gu Ming went to the door and beat that kid."
Hearing this, the woman couldn't help frowning: "This dog beating still depends on the owner, doesn't the surnamed Gu know the relationship between Wei Feng and us?" ”
"It doesn't matter if I know whether I know or not, and I don't know what medicine that kid took wrong, he actually said that he wanted to check Wei Feng's account......"
"Huh? This ......"
It was only then that the woman felt that the problem was a bit serious.
After all, Gu Ming's official character does not seem to be high, but he is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and he can often enter and leave the palace and reach the heavens...... And can it be measured by official quality alone?
"This matter is really going to be more serious, and I'm afraid that the official will also get a little dust...... This Wei Feng is really a pile of mud, not enough success, more than failure! ”
"That'...... Sir, how should we deal with it? Or...... Looking for the guy surnamed Gu to come to the house to talk? ”
"Don't think about it, he's definitely not the same as us...... Today's plan, I'm afraid that the only way to do it is to strike first. Anyway, the Dharma Master can't tolerate that kid. ”
As soon as she heard this, the woman couldn't help but perk up: "Great, then we can ask for help." ”
"You don't have to worry about this, I know how to deal with it, and ...... Wei Feng, this kid is afraid that he can't stay, and sooner or later he will have bad things. ”
"This ......" The woman hesitated for a while, and couldn't help sighing: "My lord, look at it, the concubine has nothing to say." ”
"This kid has a simple brain, and he likes to pull the banner of his own official, and he has offended many people in the official residence.
This incident is a reminder to us that if we continue to let it go, we may even cause even more trouble. ”
"Or ...... Let him go back to his hometown in the countryside? ”
"Are you stupid? He knows so much about us, how can he let him go? ”
Soon after, Fei You took a sedan chair to Tianzhao Temple, stayed for about a pillar of incense, and then went to the Hubu Shangshu Mansion to find Cui Dexiong.
"Master Fei, come to the old man at night, is there anything important to do?"
As soon as they met, Cui Dexiong asked suspiciously.
"Master Cui, the house says ......"
Cui Dexiong comprehended, took Fei You into a small hall in the backyard, closed the door and discussed secretly.
"Master Cui, things are a little bad, that Gu Ming must have a grudge against us for telling him in front of the emperor before, and is ready to take revenge on us and others."
Hearing this, Cui Dexiong seemed a little funny: "Lord Fei, are you too nervous?" Just with him, a new official who has just taken office, how can he fight with us if he wants money or not, and if he wants people and no one? ”
"Master Cui, don't underestimate that kid, how can you say that he is also from the Hanlin Academy, and he is also a bachelor, so there are more opportunities to get close to the emperor."
Cui Dexiong said disapprovingly: "So what? We are both dignified scholars, how can the emperor investigate us because of a little slander? ”
"That being said, it's better to prevent problems before they happen. It would be difficult to get rid of the boy when he was growing his wings. ”
"What the hell is going on? Why did you suddenly remember to deal with that kid? ”
"Here's the thing......"
Fei You briefly talked about the conflict between Wei Feng and Gu Ming.
Then he said: "If it's really just a momentary battle of will, he can beat Wei Feng a few times, and I may just put up with it."
But he deliberately said that he would go to the court to thoroughly investigate the account of the official residence where he lived.
Master Cui, this is really going to be investigated, and you and I will inevitably be involved at that time, the matter over there is small, but if you keep checking it down......"
With this said, Cui Dexiong finally began to face up to this problem.
Fei You is right, if he just checks the account on the side of the official mansion, it will not hurt the muscles and bones for the two of them, and the big deal is to get a little dust.
I'm afraid that the emperor will be more serious, and I will follow this clue and keep checking ...... When the time comes, I don't know how many big fish will be caught.
Cui Dexiong has always regarded himself as honest and clear, and he is relatively low-key outside, and rarely goes to those high-end consumption places, but he doesn't want people to seize the handle.
If this matter is to be replaced by someone else, the two of them are not afraid at all.
After all, the dignified officials and the household department have joined forces, and with the secret support of the protector, the black can also turn you upside down into white......
But Gu Ming is different, the township test, the meeting test, and the palace test have attracted visions one after another, and he has become a legendary figure in the court and the opposition.
Even the protector of the country can't figure it out, let alone anyone else.
The two muttered and discussed until midnight, when Fei You said goodbye and returned......
A day later, the development of the situation was in response to Gu Ming's wishes, and it really made a big fuss!
But the results were jaw-dropping.
According to the news that Gu Ming heard, it was said that Wei Feng committed suicide in fear of crime, and he also left a confession letter, explaining in detail all the crimes he committed, such as conspiring with his subordinates to withhold people's wages, and embezzling the silver allocated by the imperial court to maintain the official residence.
Most of the embezzled silver has been squandered, and there are still thousands of taels buried in the backyard of the house......
One of his accomplices absconded and disappeared, and the other set himself on fire, which by coincidence burned down the storehouse and reduced the account book to ashes in the fire......
With all this, Gu Mingfang knew that he had underestimated his opponent.
It's not that the opponent is smart, it's just a despicable, unscrupulous, and audacious act.
secretly spit out thousands of taels of silver and created this so-called trick of "committing suicide in fear of crime", "playing with fire and self-immolation", and "absconding in fear of crime".
To put it simply, it is to kill people and eliminate mouths, cut off hidden dangers from the source, and make it impossible for people to investigate.
This is clearly a conspiracy of the other party, and I know in my heart that the other party did it, but I can't help the other party.
is also trapped in this, Gu Ming fully realized that it was because his energy and foundation were not big enough and not strong enough that the other party would be so rampant.
After all, Shangshu's status, coupled with the energy of the protector of the country...... How can it be easily shaken?
It seems that the next strategy will have to be changed.
……
Yasukuni Mansion.
Gu Ming came to the door with a picture scroll.
One of the guards knew Gu Ming, and hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Lord Gu!" ”
"Hmm!"
Gu Ming smiled and nodded, and then handed over a name sticker: "Excuse me, I have something to do with Miss Luo." ”
"Miss has instructed, if Lord Gu comes, you don't need to report it, Lord Gu, please!"
The guard respectfully made a gesture of please, and walked to the backyard with Gu Ming.
Actually, Gu Ming didn't make a special trip to find Luo Yan this time, but wanted to talk to her grandfather.
It's just that Old Man Luo has a special identity, and the two parties have never met before, so it is naturally best to find Luo Yan to introduce him.
"Miss, Miss, Gu Gongzi is here."
Jin'er was looking around upstairs from the young lady, and inadvertently saw Gu Ming being led into the backyard by the guards, and couldn't help but call out in surprise.
Hearing Jin'er's voice, Luo Yan hurriedly walked out of the boudoir and looked at the ......
"Miss Luo!"
Gu Ming couldn't help but smile and wave his hand when he saw Luo Yan standing in the attic.
Luo Yan smiled shyly, raised her hand to signal, and then walked down the attic with small steps.
"Miss beware!"
Jin'er thoughtfully followed behind her and walked down together.
When she walked into the courtyard, Jin'er stared at the picture scroll in Gu Ming's hand and smiled mischievously: "Gu Gongzi, did you send a painting to my young lady again?" ”
"This ...... Ahem, Miss Luo, look at this painting first. ”
Gu Ming walked to the stone table and slowly unfolded the painting.
As soon as it was unfolded, Jin'er couldn't help but look startled, and subconsciously grabbed the sleeve of the young lady and stepped back......
Murderous!
The whole painting is full of a murderous, domineering, and heroic spirit!
The painting depicts a general in armor riding a horse and brandishing a spear to kill the enemy.
The face is not clear, because the head is also wearing armor, and it is sideways.
There is also a poem inscribed in the picture scroll: The horse crosses the white jade saddle newly, and the moonlight is cold on the battlefield. The sound of iron drums at the head of the city is still vibrating, and the blood of the golden knife in the box has not dried.
The whole painting looks like a tragic and passionate feeling.
Although I can't see the general's face in the painting clearly, it is only a faintly visible wisp of the corner of the eye, but it can make people feel the kind of indomitable, invincible, and invincible heroism.
and the horse he was riding, which was even more fascinating, and there was a sense of imminent exhalation......
"What kind of painting is this? It scared people a lot......"
Jin'er patted her chest in fear.
"This ...... This is what you painted? ”
Luo Yan looked at the inscription and seal on the painting, and her face was a little surprised.
Compared with Gu Ming's previous level, this painting can be said to have made a qualitative leap, after all, his painting skills have also been improved to level 5, and with that poem, it has made the level of this painting go to a higher level.
"Naturally, I painted it."
Gu Ming nodded with a smile.
"That'...... What about this painting...... It wasn't given to me, was it? Could it be for my grandfather? ”
Luo Yan deserves to be the first talented woman in the capital, and she guessed Gu Ming's intentions at once.
"Yes, the Duke of Yasukuni has made great achievements for our Great Yan Dynasty, so I would like to express a little heart.
But Miss Luo, I also have a gift for you......"
Gu Ming's mind moved, and a copy of "Between the Flowers" appeared in his hand.
This book is different from the one sold outside, the cover and title page are designed and drawn by Gu Ming himself, written by himself, and bound by hand, a total of only eight books are bound, and each book has a different style.
For example, for Nie Xiaoqian, the cover picture is a pair of mandarin ducks, and the poem with the title is naturally a poem of affection and love.
For Luo Yan, the cover is a blooming green lotus, accompanied by a poem:
"Scorching lotus flowers, pavilions out of the water. One stem is lonely and green, and the two shadows share dividends. The color grabs the face of the song, and the fragrance dances in the style of clothes. The name lotus can be read by itself, and the situation is the same as the two hearts. ”
