The deadline is still there, and the 10-day time frame to resolve the Li Shunde case and Guo Mingda's case is still a huge pressure on the Criminal Department. Although the crown prince Zhao Rui did not speak clearly, his attitude has already shown everything. Director Zhang felt the pressure doubled, and couldn't help but look at Yang Su.

"Yang Sheren, you made a promise to the prince, this is stricter than a military order. Besides, there is not much time left for us, how should we explain to the East Palace? ”

What he said just now really made Master Zhang sweat, if it didn't get done within ten days, they would not be able to eat and walk around.

"I think there may be a way to solve it, and this method will definitely work."

"Tell me, what's the solution?"

Director Zhang is the head of the Criminal Department, and he must be the first to take responsibility if something happens. So just now he swore an oath to the prince, and his heart rose to his throat.

"Of course, I'm looking for my eldest brother Pei Xu, with him, I will be able to do it."

He gasped, "Is this the way?" ”

Yang Su will definitely find Pei Xu in trouble. After seeing him a few times, Mr. Zhang figured out his way, looking for Pei Xu for difficult things, Pei Xu for small things, and Pei Xu for big disasters.

He smiled innocently: "What then? ”

"Forget it, let's go find Pei Xu."

At least it was a way to do it just now, more reliable than asking him what to do.

"Oops, I forgot, I cooked a pot of soup at home, and I forgot to watch the fire when I left."

Director Zhang was very depressed, and he still had the leisure to cook soup at this time.

"I'll go ask Pei Sheren, you can go home quickly."

Because of these two cases, he and Pei Xu formed an indissoluble bond, and they could see him at the end of three days. Obviously, Pei Xu has nothing to do with the two cases, but he is always called. Maybe it's because the authorities are fascinated and the bystanders are clear.

Pei Xu was not in the political hall today, nor did he go to the Ministry of Rites, so when Director Zhang went to Pei Xu's private house, he pounced on the air and was invited back by Menzi.

"The lower official asks to see," before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Menzi.

"Please go back, there are few people here, he is often in Pei's house."

The door closed the door, and Master Zhang hurriedly pushed the door to prevent him from closing it.

"And where is he now? I haven't seen him in a few places, but I'm still in a hurry. ”

Menzi's attitude is not bad, there is no embarrassment for him, if he changes places, he will definitely reach out to him and ask for money. "He, maybe I'm going to Chongdefang today, so it's a long way from here."

"Chongde Fang? Where is Chongde Fang? ”

Chongde Fang is so big, if you don't make it clear, where will he find it?

"You can see it on the east side of the Chongsheng Temple."

"Thank you."

"Hey, you wait, if Pei Sheren goes to his eldest brother, don't go."

It turned out that the house of Chongde Fang was the house of the secretary and young eunuch Pei Ji, so he went there not only to see Pei Xu, but also to see Pei Ji.

Director Zhang was a little sluggish at the moment, "Ah, why? ”

"Don't ask, okay, it's time for me to close the door." He looked at his hand against the door.

Director Zhang hurriedly withdrew his hand, "Goodbye." ”

As soon as something happens, Yang Su and Pei Xu have something to do. Director Zhang felt bored, so he could only go home and sleep well.

In autumn, Pei Ji's wind disease often attacked, so Pei Xu moved from Pei Ji's house to Pei Ji's house. This is not only convenient to take care of the elder brother, but also to avoid the strict father and mother, which is really a double win.

"I said, you hid with me just so that you could sleep more?"

Early in the morning, Pei Xu leaned on the bed and closed his eyes to recuperate.

"Yes, I didn't sleep all night after you tossed it yesterday, of course I have to take a nap now."

Since midnight, Pei Ji has been noisy and has a headache, waking up Pei Xu, who was sleeping soundly. In this way, all the work of taking medicine, massage, etc., falls on him.

"You're going to the Ministry of Rites?"

"I said I was going to write a book, but it was all trivial. Set a model article, no effort at all. "He's used to staying in the Ministry of Rites, and he knows what to do.

"I heard something yesterday."

"What's the matter?"

Pei Ji said lightly: "Guo Mingda was killed. ”

"How suddenly, no, how did he die suddenly?"

"I'm supposed to ask you. Your little brother Yang Su didn't report to you. ”

"No, I didn't see him yesterday."

How could Pei Xu have the leisure to ask Guo Mingda's case, he has been tortured by Xiao Shilang recently enough, as long as he has something, he will definitely ask him to go. He didn't know Xiao Bo's thoughts, so he just worked with his head bored.

"Then Guo Mingda died a strange death. Someone pretended to hang himself. ”

"How does my brother know so much about this?"

Pei Ji is well-informed, but he can be clear about everything, but he is really powerful.

"The newly appointed Dali is Mo Chao, haven't you seen it?"

He had never seen Mo Chao, "No." ”

Pei Ji shook his head helplessly, "That's what he told me." ”

"Oh."

Pei Ji looked at this wooden fish head and didn't open his mind, "Forget it, you don't live as well as Yang Su." ”

"What are you talking about?"

"People can fight for themselves, but you, the mud can't support the wall."

The exaggeration in his words made Pei Xu annoyed. "It's poisonous, no wonder the old man has a headache."

"But it's not completely useless, you can help him."

"Now I can't help myself, and I still need to help others."

Xiao Bo hit the thorn of the scholar at both ends on Wednesday, and even Cheng Guangyun secretly ridiculed him as a person. He is not familiar with the affairs of Zhongshu Province, and the work of the officials is all in the style of the previous subordinate province.

Pei Ji smiled, "You, you might as well beg me." ”

He shuddered, "Let's talk about it." ”

Gesture out a finger, "Ginseng soup." ”

"I," Pei Xu was about to choke to death, "the ginseng you eat is worth a lot of money, and if you eat it for half a month, you will eat up my year's worth of money." ”

"You can't afford two or two ginseng?"

Pei Xu has a slight income, but he can't bear to pay that money. "Where did I get the money to use it?"

Pei Ji was annoyed, "When the money arrives, you won't even pull out a chicken feather." I'm here, two or two of them can't come out, are they brothers? ”

"Isn't it just two or two ginseng?"

"Okay, I'll send someone to bring it to you."

He knew that Pei Ji and Xiao Shao were good all the way, and they didn't give things or do anything, even if they were their own brothers.

"It's a little harder. But in my opinion, it's time to put an end to the farce. Now someone has sent a guard to ask for his life, and it's just right, and no one will be involved. Besides, the Guo family is the mother family of the Empress Dowager Guo, and if you really want to come to the Guo family, I am afraid that the saint's face will not look good. But the case is so big, Li Shunde's death must be investigated. ”

"There are also Dali Temple and Hubu, and there are many offenders in these two places. You can't do it all in one size. ”

"Of course not."

————

The ancients once said what to mourn, blood and tears are not dry, and they are inexhaustible. Now sad about the past, life is like the ebb and flow of the tide. There is also a saying that lovesickness is not idle, as the so-called love is everywhere in the depths of love, and it is better to write freehand love than to fly to the book to talk about the ups and downs of old dreams.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, the flower dynasty festival in the palace was busy with festivals inside and outside the hall, and she suddenly remembered the story of the flower dynasty last year.

"Quickly fold the flowers, the main one." The maidservant sent a message to the palace maid who served the flowers and plants.

It is Wanning who is on duty today.

She was a palace person who had just come to the palace before, and she was filled into the backyard with a good girl, and later she was assigned to wait for the Taihua Emperor Ji. But Wan Ning is a newcomer, how can she go to accompany the chief waiter, so she was naturally sent to do the work outside. Fortunately, the palace maids in charge are still kind, and they are only responsible for ordinary work such as sprinkling and sweeping, and they are never embarrassed.

"Yes." Wan Ning replied.

She was eager to see the Lord. The eldest lord is very beautiful, and he is better than all the women in the harem.

On weekdays, Wanning can only see the shadow of Huan Ting, surrounded by everyone, and smell the fragrance.

"Hey, teach you to fold a few peach blossoms, and they will be pruned and bloom vigorously." Yu'er, the big palace maid who came out of the hall, said.

She hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

There are no peach blossoms in the Yuzhao Palace, so naturally I have to go outside to fold them.

The peach blossoms bloom like powdered makeup, charming and lovable. But what bloomed without breaking was defeated in a few days. It can only be folded with buds to be released, or half-open and half-closed.

"It's really interesting to stand under the peach tree for a long time, but pick flowers and bones."

The voice is tactful and delicate. She didn't know whose voice it was, but she turned around and saw that it was a woman in costume, which master it might be, so she saluted first and then spoke.

"If you can't fold the flowers, it won't take long for them to wither." She said.

"Got it." She only said three words, and Ling Wanning lowered her head deeply, not daring to look at people. "Raise your head and let me see."

Listening to her, you know that she is a person with a cold temperament. Wanning was afraid of annoying her, so she obediently obeyed.

"Good looks, and a little good-looking."

As soon as Wan Ning saw her appearance, she fell for it.

His expression was cold, but he was wearing a gorgeous gold embroidered dress. It is so unlining, but also because of its appearance. It is more clear and detached, which can be described by non-words.

Wan Ning also felt familiar, but she didn't know her identity, so she could only say.

"You're wrong."

"What's your name?" She asked.

"Wanning."

She was slightly surprised, "Your name was Su Lan before?" ”

"Yes, Gong Zheng changed my name later." Wan Ning replied truthfully.

"I came up with that name."

As soon as these words came out, Wan condensed into a cold sweat, even if she was not the eldest lord, she was also a noble person in the palace. In addition, she felt familiar, and nine times out of ten it was the eldest lord himself.

Wan Ning hurriedly bowed to the ground, "Thank you Lord for the name." ”

She only said lightly: "Flat." The eldest lord said: "There are many people who have a blue heart, but it is rare to have the love of cherishing flowers. ”

Wan Ning said: "The elder lord praises falsely. I have always taken care of flowers and plants, so I know how to raise flowers and protect them. ”

"You didn't listen to Yu'er's words, and you made your own decisions. I admire this kind of affection. In fact, I have never loved flowers and plants, and I rarely order people to fold flowers and vases, just because it is a flower dynasty today. She said lightly.

"It's mine to disappoint the elder." Wanning bowed her head and confessed.

But the chief said, "No, you don't have to fold it." The flowers in your hands will be healed. ”

Wan Ning said, "Yes, Lord Xie. ”

"Wanning, meaning gentle and beautiful." The elder lord just smiled slightly, but he was so amiable.

Wan Ning frowned and said, "I'm afraid I'll bump into the name of the eldest lord." ”

Taihua Emperor Ji's name is Rouyi, and her biological mother is the first emperor Peihou, and she is the most noble person except for the saint and the queen. Wanning's identity is low, and she never dares to make mistakes.

Rou Yi said: "In ancient times, there were so many people with the same name, not to mention different names. Nothing. ”

"Got it."

Rouyi asked calmly: "Where is your hometown?" ”

Wan Ning bowed her head and said, "Bazhou." ”

Bazhou is far away from Chang'an, and it is a place of debasement.

"Well, thousands of miles away, miss your parents." She said.

"I miss it so much." Wan Ning said heavily.

Rou Yi sighed: "I'm also missing, you can still wait for the day of reunion, but my parents are gone, and goodbye is already yin and yang." ”

"Don't be sad, eldest lord, you still have brothers and sisters, all the clansmen." Wan Ning comforted.

Rouyi didn't know if she was sighing or being sad.

only gently "belched" to, "You don't have to play with flowers and plants in the future, go into the temple and serve." ”

In this way, she entered the Yuzhao Hall to serve.

Compared with the rumored palace walls, the rules are big. Yuzhaodian does not have such red tape, although the temperament of the eldest lord is light, but it is also harmonious. After staying by her side for a long time, I feel more and more that she is full of wealth and talent, comparable to that of a doctor.

One day Wanning asked her, "Why does the eldest lord love the balsam more than the balsam?" Like a teacher. ”

She smiled charmingly, "Not why, but because I am the eldest lord." I hope that one day I can be as gentle and martial as Princess Pingyang and share the worries of my father and brother. ”

"The eldest lord is a person who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, what do you think about this?"

"After the turmoil, the capital is uneasy." Rouyi only sighed.

Shortly before the Holy One's accession to the throne, that is, a few months ago. King Wei plotted against the rebellion in Beijing, was demoted to a concubine, and exiled to Lingnan. The first emperor was so grieved that he fell ill and died. When the saint ascended the throne, he began to purge the king's henchmen, causing another storm.

"Those things are what the courtiers outside are worried about, and the eldest lord doesn't have to worry about it." She persuaded with good words.

Rou Yi suddenly laughed softly: "You don't understand. If you don't have the world in your chest, you can't do great things. Even though I'm a woman, I think, no, I can be a hero. ”

Wan Ning was shocked and shocked, extremely touched. "I understand the heart of the elder lord. I can understand your heart for the community. She involuntarily bowed to her.

"It's better to read more books, understand some etiquette, and have rules for acting in the future." She said softly.

"Hmm."

"People say that women don't need to read and write, but the eldest lord does the opposite, not only does he not leave the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also looks at the art of war, and wants to be a female general." Wan Ning smiled.

Rouyi put down the book and stared at her solemnly. "Maybe you don't understand, but sooner or later you'll be able to understand my heart."

Her gaze is as gentle and majestic as her name. It was the gaze of the Lord, not of anyone else.

"Yes, I will." Wan was stunned.

Rouyi stroked her brow with her hand, "Don't lock your eyebrows, just tell me if you have anything on your mind." ”

"Elder Lord," she smiled softly, "Thank you for your care." ”

"Put on my makeup, I'll see the emperor later." Rouyi said.

Wonderful eyebrows, glamorous and unparalleled. Whenever Wanning put on her makeup, she always had to watch her face with bated breath.

"It's beautiful." She couldn't help but admire.
