Chapter Eighty-Nine: Face Saint (Please order first!) )
On Baoshan Zhuangzi, Jiang Ji received a letter from Jiang Xianmu.
Uncle Wen saw that his face was not good, and asked in a low voice, "Childe, did something happen?" ”
Jiang Ji shook his head, put the letter away, and said, "You go on, what did Yan Qi do after he came in over the wall!" ”
Uncle Wen said: "The girl was calculated by Shan Zhiyuan and poisoned. The antidote was taken back by Mr. Qi. ”
"I carelessly fell into the trap of the gambling house, and after the seventh boy found out, he helped me out."
"And after that incident, Mr. Qi punished Shan Yi'an and his son."
Jiang Ji fell silent after listening.
After a while, he asked, "How many times did he climb over the wall?" What is Jinxue's attitude towards him? What is his attitude? ”
Uncle Wen heard the meaning of his words, and his expression was awe-inspiring: "As far as I know, there is only that time. The girl mentioned him in awe. ”
"I went to his house twice, and he didn't mention the girl."
"Does Childe suspect that he has bad intentions?" Uncle Wen asked carefully.
Although he had never seen Yan Qi, Jiang Ji had heard of his far-reaching fame.
The number one gentleman in the capital!
It's hard to imagine that a frivolous man who lingers in the Hualou Wine Shop all year round would help a girl who is not related to him for no reason!
Jiang Ji thought of Meng Zhipei, he felt that his sister was easy to bully.
What about Yan Qi? Does he think his sister can bully?!
As long as he thought of this possibility, Jiang Ji's chest was like a fire.
"Nope. Just ask. It's just an unfounded speculation, Jiang Ji doesn't want to maliciously judge this person who once saved the lives of his sister and Uncle Wen.
But a man jumping over the wall into the yard of a girl who lives alone is too frivolous after all.
"Why did you talk for so long?" Jiang Lingran pushed the door and walked in, followed by an embroidery girl and a bamboo Qingyu holding clothes.
Seeing the two with solemn expressions, Jiang Lingran smiled and said nervously, "Is something wrong?" ”
"Nothing." Jiang Ji hooked the corners of his lips, put on a casual smile, got up and said, "Why are you here?" ”
Jiang Lingran fingered at the embroidery girl and the clothes.
Jiang Ji laughed at her for becoming a sister, and began to worry about his food, clothing, housing and transportation, and when she said that, she glared at her, and immediately got up, obediently let the embroidery girl measure her body, and chose the clothes.
For dinner, under the supervision of Jiang Lingran, Jiang Ji used a nourishing feast.
The next morning, the emperor pinched a book of folds in one hand, pulled the corners of his lips without a smile, looked at the civil and military officials, and said without anger: "I have these two folds in my hand, one is the excerpt submitted by the Ministry of Officials to recommend the Pingsu Marquis to enter the office, and the other is the excerpt handed over by the Inspectorate to impeach the Pingsu Marquis's favored concubine and kill his wife. ”
"Zhongqing said, which one should I read first?"
There was a slight commotion in the hall, and his eyes flew wildly.
Especially the officials of the Ministry and the Inspectorate, the officials of the two ministries stared at each other, and sparks flew everywhere.
Ten thousand redundant people lined up, indignantly counting Meng Zhipei's shameless behavior.
And the officials only accepted Meng Zhipei's silver and wanted to recommend him to join the office, but it did not include helping him wash off the dirt on his body.
Besides, Meng Zhipei's absurd behavior has long been spread all over the place, who dares to argue for him? In case it is questioned about being like other things, it is really shameless.
Therefore, after Wan Yu finished speaking, the hall was silent, and no one spoke for Meng Zhipei.
The emperor looked at the official Shangshu Cheng Zhi.
It's really a ghost who agreed to Meng Zhipei, and Cheng Zhi regretted not being at the beginning!
What's even worse is that his excerpt actually arrived on the emperor's case at the same time as Wan Xuan, isn't it unlucky!
At the moment, the emperor looked at him like a mang's back, and he knelt on the ground when he came out of the ranks, kowtowed: "Weichen failed to investigate, dereliction of duty, please punish the emperor." ”
The emperor sneered and snorted: "It's quick to admit guilt." ”
Cheng Zhi was even more afraid.
These four words do not distinguish between joy and anger, and it is difficult to predict good luck and evil!
But when the emperor said this, he agreed with Wan Rui's words and disgusted Meng Zhipei's character.
Therefore, his recommendation is "sin"!
When Cheng Zhi was afraid, he was glad that he didn't make a defense.
The emperor looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world!" ”
"If you are so uneven, your family is uneven, and your heart is not right, your face will send the recommendation to my case!" The words fell, and a fold was smashed in front of Cheng Zhi.
Cheng Zhi was so frightened that his heart was broken, his forehead was on the ground, and he cried: "The emperor is angry, and Weichen is guilty!" ”
In an uproar, hundreds of civil and military officials knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "The emperor is angry." ”
The emperor was silent for a moment and said, "Gentleman, you should know the way of order!" ”
"I hope you can always be vigilant, do the right thing, and take the open road!"
The deep voice echoed throughout the hall.
It is not so much that the emperor is judging Meng Zhipei's virtue, but that he even took them to beat together.
The hearts of the civil and military officials trembled, trembling, and they should have heard in unison.
Meng Zhipei has no official position and no position, and his sin cannot be cured by virtue alone.
But with today's words of the court, it will be difficult for Meng Zhipei to enter the office again.
In the end, Cheng Zhi was fined for one year, and if he had a major demerit, if there was a next time, he would be directly dismissed.
And Meng Zhipei was punished for three years, but he also gave a reward.
Two books!
A book of rites, a Buddhist scripture.
The intention is to prescribe him to cultivate virtue and be good.
After the court, the emperor summoned Jiang Ji.
I deliberately didn't see him in the Qinzheng Palace, but the imperial garden with a relaxed atmosphere.
I saw a person walking from a distance, with a straight posture and a sharp temperament, like an unsheathed sword.
The emperor smiled slightly and said with emotion: "Father Xiao! ”
Jiang Ji guessed that after the impeachment excerpt of the Inspectorate was handed over, the emperor would belittle Meng Zhipei.
He also wanted to deter Meng Zhipei with this, so that he would not dare to play tricks on the matter of reconciliation.
But he didn't expect the emperor to summon him.
Is it for him to beat Meng Zhipei?
Or do you intend to make peace from it?
With the determination that no matter how the emperor persuaded peace, he would never let Jiang Lingran enter the Pingsu Marquis Mansion for half a step, Jiang Ji entered the palace.
When he arrived at the Imperial Garden, he saw the honor guard of the Son of Heaven from a distance, and he was solemn, and he stepped forward respectfully and bowed.
The emperor raised his hand and said, "Get up." ”
The voice is warm, a bit of a peacemaker! Jiang Ji's heart pressed like a big stone, and Xie En, who looked tense, stood up.
The emperor asked about some military affairs at home and at the border.
The emperor asked casually, but Jiang Ji didn't dare to answer casually.
pondered every question and gave an answer cautiously.
The emperor thought about the backyard of the Pingsu Marquis Mansion that came to his ears, and then thought that he rushed back to the capital in only 24 days, and felt a little sad in his heart, and said: "Since you are back, let's stay for a few more days, and let the military department pass a message from the battalion." ”
Jiang Ji was stunned, and then he was overjoyed, and he hurriedly bowed down to thank him.
The emperor looked at him like this, smiled and teased: "Are you homesick?" Do you think the border is clear? ”
Jiang Ji said in fear: "The emperor is aware of it, and the last general will never dare to slack off!" ”
"Just." He really couldn't guess the emperor's thoughts, so he decided to strike first, and said respectfully: "It's just that there are still some things in the family that need to be dealt with by the general, and it is naturally excellent to have enough time." ”
