016 A Ting of Smoke and Rain
"Adults don't care about their personal safety, but they also tolerate their colleagues' attacks and impeachments, criticize and seize feelings, and do things for the people, ignoring the interests of the powerful, so that they are full of resentment," Wen Bing sighed with emotion, and bowed again, "Please accept a gift from the students." ”
Fu Shi smiled and helped him up, "When the case is closed and the officials are assessed, you and I will meet in the capital." ”
This is to tell him that he will be promoted to Beijing this year.
Wen Bing's heart was slightly Ling, his expression was solemn, and his eyes were honest, "Everything depends on the arrangement of the adults." ”
"You have such a formal temperament, you still have to change it when you get to the capital." Fu Shi looked gentle and calm again, and patted him on the shoulder.
Wen Bing subconsciously relaxed the back that had been tense, and then smiled, he was even tighter than the palace test back then, and he didn't dare to relax at all.
Perhaps before he realized how much this talk would affect his career in the future, his subconscious and physical body had already reacted first.
Thinking so, before leaving, he meticulously saluted Fu Shi as a student, and then went to his fate.
Sending off the visitors, the night was already falling, Fu Xiaoshen freshened up when serving Fu, and whispered to himself, "Looking honest, he is also a refined and intelligent person, but the emperor who taught the emperor three years in the Wenhua Palace, the youngest cabinet scholar in Datong, I don't know how many people rushed to apprentice...... It's cheaper for him. ”
After Fu Shi rinsed up, he said lightly, "If you are as stupid as you, you will teach me a headache." ”
Fu Xiaoshen's face wrinkled, "In front of adults, where are there smart people, I should be stupid, I don't have to work hard and be comfortable." ”
Everyone in the world wants to be smart, wake up to the power of the world, drunk and lie on the knees of beautiful women, and how many people can get his childish heart and see through it. Fu Shi went to the desk in the inner room, looking at the chapters and letters that had piled up like a mountain without dealing with them for two days, he flipped through them casually, mostly asking him about the time of his return to Beijing, or many difficult things to ask him to play the rules, suddenly felt very tired, and sighed: "It's because I think too much, and there are no longer a few people who think like you." ”
It is precisely because there are more people who go to the corpse to eat vegetarian meals, form gangs, fight against different parties, and shoot horses at every turn...... He will personally select students like Wen Bing, at least some will teach and some will be saved.

Recently, Linhua Mansion has been unprecedentedly lively because of the arrival of Fu Shi, which can be called boiling, and more and more people gather in the city, just to see him, in their eyes, Fu Shi is like a long-heard floating cloud in the sky, the moon in the sky.
They are so rare that they have reached the point of word of mouth and empty alleys.
Hua Yixiang and Qian Baiguo chose summer shirts in the ready-to-wear shop, and they were forced to listen to a lot of things about this peerless young Shousuke, all of which were all kinds of true and exaggerated biographies, as if overnight, everyone was talking about it, and they felt that if they didn't say it, they would be sorry for such an atmosphere.
Then they discussed, and Qian Baiguo adhered to the principle that if you look at a man, you have to see enough of the majesty and might, and expressed her opinion: "I can't look down on the ministers, I can't help but be weak, and I am vulnerable." ”
"Didn't everyone say that this Master Fu is both civil and military, and he is the best in the world?" Hua Yixiang's tone was slightly naughty, purely to tease this unknown Shousuke, "This age, twice as old as me, maybe how old-fashioned." ”
made Qian Baiguo laugh, at that time, Hua Yixiang and Qian Baiguo were trying on clothes together, completely unaware that the people who were casually discussed by them were changing clothes in the inner room, with an interval of only ten steps, a door, a bead curtain, where to block the gossip.
Fu Xiaoshen didn't dare to breathe, he couldn't die at this time, how could he hear Qian Baiguo's 'mighty' laughter at this time, it simply broke into his body, and his internal organs hurt after the shock.
Fu Shi was very satisfied with the thin summer shirt he had put on, and he didn't hear the noise at all, and motioned to Fu Xiaoshen to take two more sets of new clothes, and then went straight out and left through the back door when he came.
Hua Yixiang, who didn't know at all, also happily bought two sets of new clothes, and then took Qian Baiguo to pick up Liangyu again, and the three of them took the carriage they came to and slowly left the ancient city.
Linhua City, which was thrown behind by them, had just begun.
Wen Bing announced that the public trial of Chen Zecheng's wife was murdered, and the number of onlookers that day was unprecedented, and it was also a craze set off by Fu Shi's name, especially the students from Linhua School rushed to see him.
However, among the officials of Linhua Mansion who were full that day, there was no figure of Fu Shi. Everyone's disappointment was quickly attracted by this case, Chen Zecheng's lost daughter, Jia Yuhe's public confession, and as Jia Lifu, the young lady of the Jia family, was brought to court, everyone was waiting and conjecturing...... Since none of the seventeen suspects are any, where is the murderer?
When the appetite hangs to the top, it is undoubtedly the best to uncover the mystery, Wen Bing brought an important person witness, it was a servant of the Jia family, and when she knelt down in the court, the faces of the father and daughter of the Jia family changed.
"The folk woman He is the housekeeper of the Jia family's treasury." He Shi's words were clear and his expression was calm, "I have worked in the Jia family for 19 years, and I was the personal maid of the third wife of the Jia family......"
The old story is narrated, and what is solved is the cause of a 'jealous killing' case.
Sixteen years ago, the third successor of the Jia family, Li married into the Jia family, the second year of giving birth to Jia Lifu, and then did not get pregnant for many years, until Jia Lifu was five years old, pregnant again, but died of blood collapse during childbirth, He missed the birth because he was also pregnant, and later learned that Li's dystocia could have saved his life, but Jia Yuhe desperately wanted a son, and made the decision to keep the small but not the big, resulting in Li's blood loss after a corpse and two lives...... As a direct consequence of this incident, Jia Lifu became the only heir of the Jia family.
"How does this matter relate to this case?"
"What kind of broken business is this Jia family, but it can also be blessed with prosperity and a lot of money......
"That's right, what did this servant woman talk about for a long time, what does it have to do with this Chen Xiucai, it's stupid to harm someone's wife and daughter."
Whispers and inquiries rang out, and Wen Bing slapped the startled wood twice in a row to maintain order in the court.
"I'll tell you the truth."
Jia Lifu, who had been kneeling upright, suddenly spoke.
It's just that a voice shook out all the voices in the four places, and the effect was better than that of a startling wood, because no one could accept it, and a woman made a man's deep and deep voice.
Jia Yuhe's body was directly shocked, and he fell from kneeling to sitting on the ground, his wide eyes looked at this daughter he had raised for sixteen years in disbelief, he pinned his hopes on countless times and asked Cang Tian countless times, why is she not a man.
As if it had accumulated to the extreme, Jia Lifu smiled contemptuously at him, "You heard it right, it's what you think, I'm a man, but I haven't been a man for a day since I was born." If it weren't for the deformed body of myself every day, I would have doubted whether I was a man or a woman. ”
Almost everyone's eyes fell on her curvy figure, and from the outside, no one believed that she was a man. It's not that they don't have much knowledge, but in these years, women dressed as men can have stories about books and storytelling, let alone men dressed up as women, so that they don't show flaws, for more than ten years.
"When I knew I was a boy, I thought countless times that one day I could be a normal person," Jia Lifu no longer looked at Jia Yuhyuk, her disgust and hatred could not be concealed, and even her tone was full of sarcasm and self-loathing, "The woman used death to tell me that as long as your father is alive for a day, you can't be yourself." ”
"If I have been a mistake in this life since the day I was born, why should I be wrong, but reality always teaches people that when you think that life is wronged, you have not yet experienced what pain is, and when you feel that you are in great pain, you have not yet realized that you would rather not come."
Jia Lifu's sarcastic smile gradually changed, his eyes were red, and he stared straight at the figure in front of him, "What a sarcasm, I hate pretending to be a woman, but I like men as much as women." ”
Chen Zecheng looked back at him as if he had been struck by lightning, and his puzzled expression was like an ice cube exploding, as if he had seen something he was most afraid of in his life, and he even subconsciously fell back, "You...... You ......"
He had always read the books of the sages, and he had difficulty formulating even the words of the swearing, and he only bleed his face with horror.
"It's me, it's me who killed her."
"For ...... Why? ”
Jia Lifu blinked, as if a drop of water fell on his lap, he wanted to laugh but it was ugly, "Because I ...... Jealous of her, crazy with jealousy. ”
"No!" An angry shout broke the dull atmosphere of the court, Jia Yuhe suddenly turned over and knelt a few steps forward, and said to Wen Bing who was directly above, "My lord, it's me, the murderer is me, don't believe him, it's me who bought the murderous ......" In the end, he was simply howling, and the famous Confucian businessman in Linhua Mansion was like a demented person, and he frantically kowtowed to the ground and confessed his guilt.
"Quiet, above the court, no noise," Wen Bing stopped the case, his face was calm, "The merits of this case are already in plain sight, how can you talk nonsense." ”
There was no need for an explanation, and when Jia Lifu showed his eight-inch feet, everything was revealed.

It hadn't been half an hour since Hua Yixiang and the others walked out of the city, and the sky suddenly changed.
Soon, a torrential rain poured down without warning.
It seems to have kicked off, and it is clear that it is far away from Jiangnan, but it has also encountered a period of rainy season. Intermittently, continuously, sometimes the sky is clear when you come, and the smoke and rain are misty when you go.
Due to the rain, after rushing to Beitang Ancient Town, Hua Yixiang decided to wait and stop completely before going on the road.
Temporarily living in an inn outside the town, sitting and waiting all day and night, Qian Baiguo couldn't bear it, so he went to the inn to look for things to do, run an errand for the shopkeeper, wash a dish for the cook, of course, all this is to rub something to eat by the way.
Hua Yixiang told Liangyu about the Book of Poetry, perhaps because of the weather, he felt melancholy, so he told him to read by himself, went downstairs to take an umbrella, and stood under the porch in the front yard.
It was in the midst of such a deafening sound that she saw a figure appear at the edge of her sight, a little hazy through the smoke and rain, but it could shake her heart more than any sound.
