Chapter 325 (More to come)
"Lord Yuan, it's time to come, so don't speak with your conscience in order to please Lord Xu. What cowpox is not cowpox, the old man has studied some ancient medicine books in the past day, but he has never heard of cowpox, which is obviously harmful smallpox! "The Ministry of Rites only felt that he was so unlucky, and he was going to return to his hometown after the golden autumn, but he didn't want to die here because of that terrible smallpox.
Don't look at everyone who is blindly currying favor with Lord Xu, seeing that life is still important at the moment, life is gone, what kind of high-ranking officials are talking about, what are you afraid of him, what is the Xu family's Luo family!
The emperor always looked at the quarrelsome ministers below, and said that the Xu family suffered this catastrophe, and I couldn't bear it, but the lives of the people in the city were very important, so I wronged Xu Aiqing, but I heard that the Xu family has a lot of heirs, and if you just succeed a few under your knees, it will be the same.
This is to force him to death and cut him off! Xu Shangshu sneered a few times, but he didn't accept the order.
The courtiers whispered, and the emperor was quite embarrassed for a while.
"Your Majesty, as far as the ministers can see, those sons are really pitiful, and it is really unbearable to kill them in this pit, so why don't you send them back to the Xu Mansion to find the best doctor for treatment." Yuan Zhiheng has been speaking for the Xu family today.
Lord Xu also had to accept his affection at this time, and knelt down to ask a few children to go back to Xu's house for diagnosis and treatment, even if they died, they would die at home.
The important ministers objected in unison, this time it was an unprecedented unity, if the sons of the Xu family could not be cured, according to the temperament of Lord Xu, then they must not let this smallpox flood the entire capital!
The emperor was undecided, so he had to order the prison of the criminal department to be sealed off, and no one was allowed to come closer, so the matter was planned separately.
The matter of the sons of the Xu family has not been resolved, and Xu Shangshu can be regarded as having a complete break with Shangshu of the Criminal Department and has become an enemy. The criminal department Shangshu broke away from the camp of King Qi, and for a while the six gods had no owner, so he wanted to turn his head under the banner of King Gong, who was a bright moon and clear breeze, and he was admonished, and at the same time showed his determination to fight for the throne. As for the surrender of the criminal department's Shangshu, he didn't say yes or refusal, but politely sent people out of the house.
Gong Wang Yu is like this, Shang Shu is at ease, and he feels that King Gong is a big way! and the Xu family is even more detached.
No matter how powerful Xu's is, his descendants have all contracted smallpox, and they are all finished, by the way, what is the use of leaving a remnant without a right foot!
Emperor Xu was sitting in the Wan'an Palace, and was shocked to hear the bad news, which was really vomiting blood and fainting.
The Xu family is now too busy to take care of themselves, recruiting famous doctors all over the world...... As for the big and small things in the court, I don't have time to take care of them.
Lord Shi Lu of the Imperial Court invited Li Sang to be young and promising in the Zuo Lang of the Ministry of Officials, and was promoted to the rank of Waiter, acting as Xu Shangshu, and making promises.
For a while, Li Sang, who was born in a poor family, jumped up, although he did not worship the first assistant, but he was in charge of the position of the first assistant, which can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person.
Li Sang was in charge of the ministry, and successively promoted some officials from poor families from all over the country, quietly replacing those disciples and protégés who worked hard for the Xu family.
Humanitarian blessings and misfortunes are impermanent, and they come day and night. Now the threshold of the Li family's gate, which is still shabby, is about to be trampled on, and there are countless people who come to stammer, some of them send money to rare treasures, and some of them send their own daughters......
Although Mrs. Li's background is not such a famous official family, it is definitely not comparable to ordinary families. The Confucian family of Yansheng Gong has been admired and respected by the world in all dynasties.
Now there are people who don't care about their face and send their daughters directly, all of which they say is to serve in front of Mrs. Li and share their worries for Mrs. Li, but in fact, they just recommend a pillow to Lord Li.
Although he has surrendered in the eunuch field over the years and has been influenced by several righteous brothers, Li Sang is an honest man in his bones.
For the first time, the house was inexplicably stuffed with so many young beauties who were like flowers and jade, which only made him red-faced. simply cheekily handed over the post to the third master and the third brother Gui Bonian, and then successfully hid home.
The west courtyard is still the same as before, and the small courtyard that Li Sang once borrowed in the past is still elegant and clean. The plane tree in the martial arts training ground is the most lush time, every day down the court to sit under the plane tree to enjoy the cool, eat tea, watch a few clouds in the sky drift in front of me, only to feel that the day has flown back to the time to enter Beijing to catch the exam, and read and paint with the righteous brothers, talk about the current government and politics.
He hid and went to the west courtyard of his home, and Mrs. Li was even more demure and didn't like to be noisy, so she went to Yuan's mansion to find some Cuiyi and sue during the day, saying that she was helpless.
Lotus was planted on the lake where Diancui and the water pavilion were located, and on this day, she and Mrs. Li decided to take advantage of the absence of their respective men to have a good time and rejoice for a while.
The two of them took a raft, and did not take a maid, and paddled the oars and talked and laughed, and then they came to the shallows where the lotus flowers were flourishing in the lake.
Diancui remembered that his eldest brother and sister-in-law liked lotus flowers the most, and because of the lotus, he picked several half-opened lotus flowers, thinking that Lu Man would be happy to see them.
"It's really cool and quiet on this lake, I knew it was good, I came early, and it was better than my ears hurt from the noise of those people at home." Mrs. Li picked up the lotus flower in one hand and shaded it with a lotus leaf as big as an umbrella in the other, so she added a touch of liveliness and playfulness that she didn't usually have.
"Sister-in-law likes it, why don't you put a house by the lake another day, right! I heard that the other side has plans to sell the house, if the sister-in-law is interested, I will inquire today! Dian Cui was excited, and the lotus leaf on his head was upside down, and almost fell off, causing Mrs. Li to laugh crisply.
"That's good, if you can really buy the house opposite, this lake will be half of our two families, Brother Fang and Brother Dong come to this water pavilion to go to school, and they only need to take a small raft to arrive every day! You and I can see each other every day. "Don't say that Cuicui is excited, and Mrs. Li is also very excited to imagine such a scene.
"In addition to the children and you and me, there are also two adults, and it is convenient to discuss ......," Diancui whispered.
She knew that it was inconvenient for her men and those righteous brothers to see each other during the day except for a few hurried glances from the court. Especially today, each of them has a good position, and this concern is even more, because they get together at night when there is something. First Literature
Mrs. Li nodded silently, nodded and said that if the children come to the water pavilion to go to school, we will build another bridge, or wedge a wooden stake, which is safer and more reassuring than a raft.
Building bridges...... Mrs. Li smacked her tongue, and then laughed again, their fourth sister was very cute.
"The house opposite is not big, but it is better than being exquisite and quiet, at this price, sister-in-law doesn't have to worry, do such a mundane thing as buying and selling and bargaining prices, and leave it to me." Diancui said with a smile.
No matter how old she is, in front of her father, mother, brother and sister-in-law, she can always show her innocence, and it is difficult not to pity her sincerity.
"Good! When my fourth sister helps me, I can rest assured. Mrs. Li replied gently, and gently straightened the lotus leaf "hat" that was crooked to the side with a smile.
After folding a large handful of lotus flowers, the two of them were not less interested, took off their shoes and socks again, went down to the lake, and picked half a raft of lotus canopies.
Mrs. Li learned from the way she looked, dried her wet feet on the corners of her skirt, put on her shoes and socks, and finally couldn't help giggling, and only laughed and fell on the raft and couldn't get up.
Diancui was puzzled, but when she saw her smiling like this, she also laughed at her, and the two of them ignored their images, and laughed back and forth on the uninhabited lake, only to startle a group of white-winged water birds.
"Fourth sister, do you know that I have never been like this since I was a child," and when she was tired of laughing, Mrs. Li pointed to her feet and put her hand into the cool lake water, playing with the water, and said weakly: "I have never been so happy, when I was a child, my family taught me how to be a well-behaved daughter, married into the Li family, and was told by my mother to be a virtuous wife, everyone said that you are not an outsider but the daughter of the Yansheng family, how many people's eyes are staring at you." Now that your brother Li is like this, it is even more unbelievable......"
In the face of those young and beautiful women who are delicate and staring at their own men, she is not as generous and decent as she is on the face, but she doesn't know how to do it, how to make herself feel comfortable and not disgrace the reputation of the Yan Shenggong family.
Diancui sighed and gently stroked her shoulder, not knowing how to comfort her for a while.
After a while, Diancui peeled a lotus seed and put it in his mouth, and said quietly:
"I was abducted to the countryside when I was a child, but I barely grew up without starvation, and there were never any rules in my bones, and this person was very cheesy. I just feel that this is a rule, a reputation, a face—it's all something that people think about when they're full of food and idleness, and if they starve him for two days, they don't think about anything......"
These big truths, she didn't even say Yuan Zhiheng, the first Yuan Zhiheng as her teacher, what she taught was the things that got out of low-level interests and climbed to a deeper level of life. She won't say this, just like she won't tell Yuan Zhiheng in her life that she was reborn and was a concubine with others in her previous life.
Mrs. Li listened carefully to her and did not speak for a long time.
"Sister-in-law, don't take it to heart, I just said those words casually......"
Mrs. Li said: "The fourth sister is right, this person is just full of food and idle to have nothing to do!" ”
Diancui: "......"
Virtuous and gentle like sister-in-law Li, she is going to be led astray by herself, Diancui was cautiously worried, and at night after going back, Yuan Zhiheng came back and hugged her into his arms and fell asleep.
Dian Cui couldn't sleep, and he wanted to tell Xianggong about the "nonsense" he said with the Li family's sister-in-law today. Yuan Zhiheng may have been very tired from doing things during the day, and after a while, he snored deeply, and Diancui had to give up.
After another three days, the sister-in-law of the Li family did not appear, and at ten o'clock in the evening, Li Sang actually came to the door in person, saying that he wanted to see the fourth sister.
Diancui sighed in her heart, thinking that she had caused trouble and stabbed the basket, and Brother Li came to the door.
Unexpectedly, Li Sang actually came to thank Dian Cui.
"Thanks to the fourth sister for her advice, that day when I went back to buy a house in the name of not enough money, I ordered the whole house to reduce food and clothing, eat one meal a day, the cost should not exceed two taels of silver, and the meat and vegetables should not be more than one...... She was born in a scholarly family, and there are twenty such regulations, which are reasonable and well-founded, and in the end, those young ladies in the house couldn't stand it, and found an excuse to go back to their own home, we are finally quiet! Li Sanxi said:
"I also said that she had always come up with such a tricky trick, and when I asked Fang Zhi, it turned out to be the fourth sister, the fourth sister is really a god, and Kong Ming will be reincarnated!"
Yuan Zhiheng looked at Dian Cui with a smile, and Dian Cui smiled bitterly, is Brother Li praising himself or hurting himself.
"The fourth sister has solved a big trouble for my husband and wife, and the eldest brother wants to thank you for this!"
Li Sang took out a noodle from his arms, He Xiangu's.
"I heard the fourth brother say that the fourth sister loves this He Xiangu's face the most, if you make the fourth sister unhappy, this face person will be effective......"
"Big brother!" Dian Cui was ashamed and angry, she was the mother of two children, and turned around and glared at Yuan Zhiheng, who was overjoyed.
Li Sang saw that Diancui was not so happy at all, touched his head, suddenly remembered something, and said with a straight face: "I heard Brother Fang'er say that Sister Ci'er has been arguing about her Master Qingyun recently, and the eldest brother sent someone to the south today, so I can find it!" ”
When Dian Cui heard this, he hurriedly said: "I was about to beg my eldest brother for help in this matter, not only because of Sister Ci'er, but I am afraid that if this case against my sister can be revealed, I have to find Qingyun first......
