It's okay, Lin Gongzi listened, and he would be able to contact Lord Lin's official position in the future. Fang Cai and Lin Shangshu said that the matter of rectifying the officials of the Ministry of Rites, Lin Shangshu can really think about it. ”

"What the fifth prince said is that Master Li's Shangshu is just a good poetry, but he doesn't know how to discipline his subordinates at all. At the moment, Li Shangshu still knows that he wants them to rein in, and when they are in the future, they will not jump to the head of our six departments. ”

As soon as Xu Ruzhu's voice landed, Lin Feng echoed, Lin Shangshu was angry and helpless, and frowned slightly, "Shut up, you don't know anything, what nonsense are you talking about here, don't hurry up and give me a retreat, save yourself from being embarrassed here." ”

"Yes, Dad." Lin Feng was also reprimanded a lot, still looking like a hanger, without the slightest blush, so he just threw his hand and ran out of the door, not knowing where to fool around.

"The dog is rude, and I ask the five princes to forgive me." Xu Ruzhu's face was full of meaning, and after listening to Lin Shangshu's words, he came back to his senses and stood up.

"Your son rarely has a youthful spirit, it's really rare, Lord Lin doesn't have to be so cautious."

said that Su Jiao's side, after leaving the Lin Mansion, said goodbye to the Countess for a few words, and took the things that the Countess asked her to enter the palace to give to Zhang Yuge, and Su Jiao went straight back to the Xiao Mansion.

In the courtyard of Xiao Mansion, Xiao Huai'an had already returned, standing under a maple tree, looking up at the sky.

In the end, it is a peerless gentleman, the jade tree is in the wind, and the beautiful green leaves of the maple tree are full of branches, and it looks even more tall and handsome.

Su Jiao slowly approached, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart for this scene.

This figure, in modern times, as a model, can directly debut above the eighteenth line, but it's a pity that he is a eunuch.

No, he wasn't a eunuch either!

Su Jiao recalled, and instantly drove away all the sympathy for Xiao Huai'an in her heart, Xiao Huai'an also felt that someone was coming from behind, and turned around to take a look.

"I'm back."

"Hmm." This turn made the fine sunlight shining through the maple leaves hit Xiao Huai'an's face, and it felt as warm as her first love, which really made Su Jiao's heart beat faster.

Su Jiao coughed with a big face, and finally pressed her surging mood, and stepped forward with a smile, "Why did you come back so early today, is it because you know that I have won a big victory, so you came to congratulate me?" ”

"Yes, I naturally know that you are invincible, and I have already prepared a pot of tea, waiting for your heroic deeds."

Xiao Huai'an looked at Su Jiao's proud appearance, and didn't realize how much influence he had, and the softened aura made Su Jiao unstoppable in this scene.

Su Jiao was almost distracted, blinked hurriedly, stepped over, and sat in the position that Xiao Huai'an had prepared for herself, "I'm going out for you, don't you say that you should prepare some snacks for the banquet, just drinking tea is too picky." ”

"Thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the courtesy is light and affectionate, didn't you also say that the most important thing is the heart?" Xiao Huai'an couldn't help her, so he sat on the other side with Su Jiao.

Su Jiao held the cup and blew away the water vapor on it, and when she heard Xiao Huai'an's words, she couldn't help but turn her head, blinking her eyes wide, "How do you know?" Did you send someone over too? ”

"What?" The subordinates on the side just now had already been greeted by Su Jiao, so Xiao Huaian could only lift the teapot and pour the tea by himself, which he really didn't understand.

"Nothing." Su Jiao turned her head, not only complaining in her heart that she was really thinking too much. "You don't know how exciting today's banquet is, I went to this day, thanks to Su Lian who shared a lot of hatred in my place, otherwise how could I come back so smoothly."

"Just a Duchess of Pingcheng, I'm afraid that as long as their family doesn't make any trouble, whoever provokes her at the banquet will be unlucky."

"The Duchess and the Queen were old acquaintances when they were young, so it is inevitable to be proud of this, and it is good to have nothing to do." Xiao Huai'an nodded, it can be seen that the reputation of the Duke of Heisei Mansion is completely resounding inside and outside the capital.

"I haven't heard of this news, but I have to write it down." At the beginning, the original book only mentioned how the Duke's Mansion served Xu Rulie, but there was not much mention of the lady of the back house, after all, there is really no need for a strong description of such a dragon role.

Su Jiao groaned, and then drank tea while informing Xiao Huai'an of everything that happened today.

"Mrs. Nalin is also really cautious, there is a countess to help me speak, and she is also skeptical, but fortunately, in the end, there was a mistake from the Duchess, and the five princes who came over from behind also helped me speak, so you can rest assured, this matter must have been done."

"Fifth Prince, why did he appear to speak for you?" I still listened to it well in front, until this last sentence made Xiao Huai'an's tone suddenly change slightly.

"Lin Shangshu is also a big official in the end, his wife's birthday, the five princes will come to go through the motions." Su Jiao shook her legs, but she didn't notice Xiao Huai'an's reaction.

Xiao Huai'an was helpless, "I'm not talking about this. ”

"Oh, the five princes are pretty good, they helped me a lot, just like when the road is uneven, draw a knife to help, what do you care so much about?" While speaking, Su Jiao deliberately turned her head to look at him, and there was some playfulness in her eyes.

Seeing this, Xiao Huai'an quietly skimmed his eyes, but the fingers holding the cup were quietly straining, "I'm just reminding you that the fifth prince is not such a good person, his biological mother is the most favored concubine in the harem, and he naturally has the ambition to compete with the third prince for the prince, you should be careful not to use him." ”

"Everyone has to be self-motivated, this is understandable, it is impossible for his biological mother to be the queen, he is not qualified to be the emperor, right?" Su Jiao pursed her lips and deliberately picked this sensitive topic.

Sure enough, Rao is as calm as Xiao Huai'an, and at this moment he also brought some normal emotions, and got up directly, "Lichang has been established since ancient times, and then Lixian, the five princes do not have a advantage in these, I advise you not to be too careful." ”

"What do I care about, I'm not an official, and I'm not a person in his house, can I still look at him and give me something?" As soon as she heard this, Su Jiao really couldn't hold back her laughter, one hand pressed on the armrest, and her body was a little crooked with laughter.

"I'm just saying that, what did you do to react so much, is it possible that you are still jealous?"

After that, Su Jiao also stood up, tilted her head on her feet, and tried to face him face to face, but Xiao Huaian insisted on refusing to bow her head, and supported her very honestly in her hands, lest she fall.

"Aren't you drunk at the banquet, so let's hurry up and let the hibiscus prepare a sobering soup for you."

When the words landed, Xiao Huai'an turned around and left with his head held high, which made Su Jiao behind him laugh more and more.

In the past, he was the only one who teased me, and this can be regarded as feng shui in turn.

Su Jiao smiled lightly and covered her mouth with a handkerchief, turned around and sat down and raised the teacup in a chic manner, only to feel that today's tea was more clear than in the past.

The next day, Xiao Huai'an was on his way to the Ministry of Rites in a carriage, and stopped the carriage of the Ministry of Officials halfway.

Xiao Huai'an let his carriage follow the officials to a secluded place to stop, and Lin Shangshu got off the car later, and he was dressed neatly.

"Lord Xiao has been really hard these days, I heard that Lord Xiao has been very bored these days for Li Shangshu's negligence, and the official has also learned a little bit of the inside story, so he is ready to check whether there are any cheating and slippery people in the Ministry of Rites, I don't know if Lord Xiao is willing to help deal with it earlier, and Lord Xiao can also breathe a sigh of relief."

Lin Shangshu tidied up his clothes, and he made up his mind yesterday to stop the carriage today. This class is straight to the point, concise and clear, Xiao Huaian appreciates it.

"This palace will assist the officials in the investigation, but didn't Lord Lin say before that there was a lack of evidence, why do you already have a candidate for the target now?"

"Exactly, Li Shangshu has a decree surnamed Shen under his hand, and he is a relative of the same clan as his original wife, this person had a murder two years ago, but he was suppressed by Li Shangshu, such a person with a dirty body is really not suitable to stay in the Ministry of Rites."

Lin Shangshu said with confidence, but saw Xiao Huai'an's face showing a look of doubt, "Oh, there is such a thing?" ”

"This matter is not trivial, how could Lord Xiao not know?" Lin Shangshu was puzzled, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"The election of officials was originally under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Officials, and the murder case involved was a matter of the Criminal Department, how did the official know about it." Xiao Huai'an replied as a matter of course, causing Lin Shangshu to suddenly feel a tingling on his scalp.

It is also common for officials to protect each other, not to mention being able to make Li Shangshu owe such a favor, why not.

Thinking about it, Lin Weiyong cleared his throat and clenched his fists embarrassedly, "What the little lord said is very true, it is indeed the negligence of the official, so the official wants to ask Lord Xiao to help stop the loss in time Now that the Japanese Kingdom is about to enter Beijing, it is really inconvenient for outsiders to know about this kind of family ugliness, so as not to be ridiculed by my Daze officials." ”

"This official already has some clues in his hands, as long as Lord Xiao is willing to agree to help, this official will definitely be able to clean up the unhealthy trend of the Ministry of Rites."

When the words landed, Xiao Huai'an was silent, Lin Weiyong was apprehensive in his heart, looking at him with anticipation, and it took him a moment before he finally let go.

"Since Lord Lin is so sure, then the official will definitely help, but it is inconvenient to make a public announcement on this matter, so there is no need to notify Lord Li first, lest those people take the opportunity to eliminate the evidence."

"Since Lord Lin already has a goal, it is better to take this official to take a look first, maybe it is also a breakthrough in this matter."

"That's great, Lord Xiao, please." Lin Weiyong saw that he was finally willing to let go of his agreement, and was immediately overjoyed, and Xiao Huai'an got into the car separately and drove to the Qinglou that the Duchess of Pingcheng said yesterday.
