Chapter 140 implicated

When the night is cloudy, the four gates of the house of Zhu Daren, the most powerful minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty guarded by the stone lion, are closed, and the lanterns illuminate the front of the door, which is more and more majestic and quiet compared with the day.

The middle-aged man who came out of the sedan chair in the palace of Wenjun stopped in front of Lord Zhu's door.

The little guy stepped forward to call the door, and the porter with a face that was disturbed and impatient saw the face of the little guy who called the door, and immediately changed to a smile of spring breeze and joy.

"Your Excellency, please." He hurriedly opened a door and stood respectfully.

The middle-aged man didn't look at him, he stepped in, and the door slowly closed.

And when this man stepped into the gate of Zhu's mansion, Lord Zhu was sitting in the study, looking at a young man kneeling in front of him.

"So, you and that Gu Hai are old acquaintances?" Master Zhu said slowly in a non-hurried voice.

"Yes, Father." The young man's slightly hoarse voice came.

"That's why you went to use my banner to ask your uncle to treat that Gu Hai leniently?" Lord Zhu still said unhurriedly, but there was already a bit of coldness in his voice.

"Father, please, spare his life." The young man touched his head to the ground and his voice choked.

"Spare him? How can you let me spare him....." Master Zhu smiled and said, "It's not that I want his life...."

He looked at the young man in front of him, who was still hitting the ground with his head, "... Xuan'er, this is the emperor's decision, I can't do anything for my father..... hurry up, don't mess around, these days you let him avoid punishment, compared to the two Jinshi who are already terminally ill, it is already good, and you can be regarded as benevolent and righteous....."

The young man who was called Xuan'er cried bitterly when he heard this, and kowtowed again and again, only calling his father to beg you, and soon there was blood on his forehead.

Lord Zhu's face became very ugly, and he slapped the table with a snap.

"Presumptuous! What are you going to do?" He said in a solemn voice.

Before he could finish his words, he heard someone outside the door reply.

"Master, Mr. Hu is here."

These words made Master Zhu immediately collect his anger, stood up, and shook his shirt, "Please...."

The young man still prostrated and pleaded.

"Go down!" Lord Zhu shouted in a low voice.

The young man also knew that it would be useless to continue in this situation, so he had to stand up and withdraw.

The middle-aged man came under the guidance of the lantern and greeted the young man who had withdrawn.

Under the lantern reflection, this is a handsome face, angular and angular, the only pity is that a shallow scar at the corner of the eye destroys the overall beauty, at this time the face is sad, the eyes are red, and the blood on the forehead is obvious.

Looking at this, Master Zhu is probably not in a good mood....The middle-aged man's heart flashed with thoughts, and he couldn't help but glance at the young man a few more times, guessing his identity.

His description is a little embarrassing, but he is dressed luxuriously, not like an inferior person......

"Young Master Xuan.." The subordinate bowed respectfully to the young man.

As soon as this title was shouted, the middle-aged man immediately became stunned.

Master Zhu has been in a high position for more than ten years, and he is a character who will shake the world when he sneezes, but this man who has made countless people afraid is a person who is afraid of guilt, so far he only has one wife, Sun, and Sun is infertile, so he did not take a concubine, but succeeded a son of Sun's brother.

But at this time, this young man is not the son that everyone knows, the step-son is named Yan, who is twenty-four years old this year.

And the boy in front of him, who is only sixteen or seventeen years old, is a newly recognized son of Lord Zhu.

This righteous son was originally Zhu Yang's slave, but somehow fell into the eyes of Zhu Yang and Sun, and the mother and son persuaded Lord Zhu to let him accept him as a righteous son.

"It's him," the middle-aged man nodded, and looked at the young man again.

It seems that the righteous son who was born as a slave is still a slave despite the name of the righteous son.

This Young Master Xuan walked out for a while, stopped, turned around and knelt down facing the study.

Is this something wrong? The middle-aged man was faintly curious, Master Zhu had already come, and casually closed the door, cutting off his sight.

"Master Hu, is there something wrong with visiting late at night?" Master Zhu looked at the middle-aged man with a gentle smile.

"That's the case..."The middle-aged man was not polite, and whispered the words of King Wenjun.

Master Zhu really understood, and looked at the jumping candle flame and was silent for a moment.

"The king of the county and he are old acquaintances, and they made friends without their identities at the beginning, and they got along quite happily, so...."The middle-aged man hurriedly explained in a low voice.

Master Zhu smiled and raised his hand to stop his words.

"In that case, the old man will open his face to penetrate the tone of the saint...."He said, patting the middle-aged man's hand and revealing a smile full of meaning.

At this point, everyone already knew it, and the middle-aged man also smiled and patted his hand, and said that it would make Master Zhu bother.

The minister's house was not good for a long time, and after a few simple words between the two, the middle-aged man said goodbye, and Master Zhu did not stay with each other, and sent it out in person.

In order to avoid people's eyes, Master Zhu only sent him to the wall, listened to the sedan chair outside the door creaked away, and then turned back.

In the courtyard of the study, the young man was still kneeling there, dressed in the night, like a stone sculpture.

"Get up." Master Zhu walked past him and shouted in a deep voice.

"Father, his son's life was saved by him, and we can't watch him die....." The young man prostrated again and pleaded, his voice full of despair.

Master Zhu snorted, interrupting his plea.

"If you say a little more, you'll have to pay for his life," he said unhurriedly.

The young man who was kowtowing didn't react for a while, and looked up at Master Zhu in a daze.

"Father.," he muttered, his anxious and sad face covered with another layer of dismay, "you... You ....."

"Me?" Lord Zhu snorted, frowned, and brushed his sleeves beside him, "So it is also light to say that there are no children and no daughters, and the province has to worry about you debt collectors....."

His voice was a little helpless and a little imperceptible pride, and after saying this, the person had already entered the study.

The young man knelt there straight, and it seemed that it had taken a long time before he understood the meaning of Fang Cai's words, and he was suddenly ecstatic, and he touched his head on the ground with a bang, and he didn't notice the pain at all.

"Thank you, Father, thank you, Father....", he only repeated.

When Gu Bainiang opened her eyes, it was already two days later.

She lay on a bed covered with soft mattresses, covered with a soft brocade quilt, and the curtain embroidered with golden flowers faintly shone with a glimmer of light, and for a moment she didn't know where she was.

But soon she sat up violently, and opened the curtains, and the room was filled with light.

"The little lady is awake."

When the two pretty maids heard the sound, they said with a smile, one brought tea, and the other brought clothes.

Gu Bainiang didn't have time and couldn't pretend to be stupid anymore and dress quickly.

"The little lady is sleeping so deeply....", the pretty maid who served her in a coat said with a smile.

Gu Banniang only felt panicked in her heart, and she didn't know if it was because she was hungry after sleeping for two days, or because she was panicking about the results she was about to know.

Regardless of the outcome, the face will have to be faced sooner or later.

* In the bright and verdant courtyard, Gu Banniang had been kneeling for a while, and finally there was a sound of footsteps behind her.

"Why haven't you left yet? If you get enough sleep, do you have to wait for a full stomach?" A cold voice came from overhead, and the hem of the vermilion intricate pattern stood in front of him.

Gu Banniang's tears couldn't help but welled up.

"Thank you, the king," she said with her head on the ground, choking.

"Thanks?" King Wenjun smiled faintly, his gaze swept over the top of the girl's head, "Don't you dare, you want me to thank you, right?"

"Little girl doesn't dare..."Gu Banniang lowered her head and said.

"Don't you dare..."King Wenjun said slowly, slowly walking past her.

It wasn't until he walked far away that Gu Bainiang raised her head and watched the gorgeous figure disappear into layers of green shadows.

This clumsy half-truth and half-truth finally gave her a lease of life, and although she knew that this patchwork prophecy played a role, she would not believe that it had played a full role.

"No matter what you are because, as long as you are willing to make a move, you will be my Gu Ba Niang's reborn benefactor...."She lowered her head again and muttered in a low voice.

Outside the gate of King Wenjun, Peng Yizhen and the others were still guarding there, sitting in a daze leaning on the carriage, and everyone's faces were empty and blank.

The door creaked, drawing their eyes to look at them habitually, and this time, the thin figure appeared in their eyes.

But no one moved, and their expressions were still wooden.

It was an apparition, and as before, as soon as they took a few steps forward, the thin figure would snap away.

"You've always been here....." Gu Bainiang said in surprise, joy and sadness, and walked over with a quick pace.

Peng Yipin's face was shocked.

"It's true!" Lingbao was the first to jump up and pounced, "It's Miss, Miss is out....."

Crying loudly as he spoke.

"Yes, yes, I'm out," Gu Bainiang's tears couldn't help but flow out.

Peng Yizhen and the others rejoiced at this time, and they all looked around Gu Bainiang with red eyes.

Back at the inn, looking at Peng Yizhen and Lingbao's haggard appearance, Gu Bainiang felt very sad.

"Miss, they didn't hit you, did they..."Lingbao said as she looked at her face sadly.

The complexion is pale and light, and the eyes are slightly swollen and lightly waved.

slept very well..... Gu Banniang was a little shy, she was afraid that no one would believe it, but in fact, she didn't even believe it herself, how could she fall asleep.

At that time, King Wenjun brushed his sleeves away, and did not leave a word, but her tense mood suddenly relaxed, and she fell asleep while repeatedly examining what she said and guessing the consequences.

She didn't fall asleep in the comfortable room carefully arranged for herself by the Medicine House in the capital, but she fell asleep in the county king's mansion, where she was full of words and death, and she slept so deeply for so long.

"Eighteen Niang, how is it?" Peng Yizhen hesitated again and again, but couldn't help but ask.

"Brother, he...."Gu Banniang's eyes looked in the direction of the prison, as if she was answering Peng Yizhen and seemed to be telling herself, "It's okay...."

At this time, in the prison, Gu Hai, who had to be distracted, was sitting opposite people, and there was a simple table of wine and food in front of them.

“… Teacher, students have another drink..."Gu Hai said and raised his head to drink it all.

“… Boy, you've eaten it all, and let me eat it...", the old man with white hair said with a smile, and as he reached out to take the small wine jug, as if he was afraid of being taken away, he clutched it tightly in his hand.

“… Yangzhou's Wanquan is drunk...."He looked at the wine jug in his hand, "... It's a good wine, but it's too light, if you change it to three cups in Suzhou...."

“… If the teacher wants to drink it, I'll buy it for you..."Gu Hai choked up in a voice.

The old man laughed and threw the flask against the wall, and the flask shattered.

"No, that's enough...."He said, blinking, "When you worship the old man and me next year, remember to take three cups and pour them...."

Gu Hai lowered his head and whimpered when he heard this.

“… Crying, crying..."The old man scolded, "Look at your frizzy appearance, what kind of body you have become..."

"Teacher..."Gu Hai choked up louder, "The student is ..... for you"

"Qu? Although the old man died to live up to his wishes, he was unyielding, and he was very happy. The old man smiled and ate a mouthful of food, "Don't blame me for being stingy, you can't eat this severed head meal..."

"Teacher.." Gu Hai knelt on his head and whimpered.

"Look at your worthless look!" The old man snapped his chopsticks and looked at Gu Hai solemnly, "If you call me a teacher, you can listen to me a few words."

Gu Hai stopped whimpering and looked at the old man with red eyes.

"First, grind away your frizziness, and second, guard your strong and righteous spirit..."The old man said solemnly, looking at Gu Hai with a little pity in his eyes, and his voice softened, "Okay, doing what you can is also living up to what you have learned in your life, not everyone is like a teacher is the way of a gentleman."

"Students remember what their teachers teach." Gu Hai leaned over and choked on the ground and said.

A few days later, Gu Hai was released from prison, and the long-delayed court examination was finally held, and Gu Hai was also qualified to take the exam.

All these disturbances did not interfere with the two brothers and sisters of the Gu family, and the results of the court examination were quickly released, and this result caused a sensation again.

The first is that Gu Hai was assigned to Nanzhang County, Xiangyang Prefecture as a county magistrate, and the second class was originally assigned to the six departments of the capital to observe the government, and only the last class will be sent to the local provincial yamen to observe the government, and mix the future of the seven products. Of course, Gu Hai can get this future, which is beyond everyone's expectations, according to everyone's guess, he should be sitting on a cold bench to be assigned, but he didn't expect to get a real shortage directly.

However, thinking that it was Nanzhang County to go, everyone felt that they could understand the emperor's meaning.

Nanzhang is a county near the decomposition of Dajin and Dazhou, and now that General Ye is gone, Dajin is arrogant, where is life not easy.....

Gu Haihai once accused Lord Zhu of being greedy for life and avoiding death, so presumably the emperor wanted him, a person who was not greedy for life and afraid of death, to go through the experience, so as not to stand and talk without backache.

"Don't worry, this is actually much better than me staying in the capital..."Gu Hai explained to Gu Bainiang, afraid that she would worry.

Gu Banniang nodded, and before she could speak, the door was slammed open.

"Gu Hai, you broom star!"

With an angry scolding, Gu Yu's fist hit Gu Hai in the face, he was menacing, Gu Hai was caught off guard and fell out.

Gu Bainiang grabbed the porcelain vase on the table with her hand, and Gu Yu had already pounced again with the fall of the sea, the two young people fought together on the ground, and they couldn't be separated for a while, Gu Bainiang couldn't do it, she was afraid that she would hurt Gu Hai by mistake.

"It's all you who hurt me! You're the one who hurt me!"

After a few rolls, Gu Yu finally gained the upper hand and punched Gu Hai.

"Am I hurting you?" Gu Hai tossed twice, pressed him under him again, and unceremoniously rained down his fists, "How did I hurt you, I'm locked up in prison, and I don't have a chance to have a relationship with you if you want to have a relationship with Zhuangyuangong...."

He said something else, after Gu Hai came out, he knew that Gu Yu had the privilege of forgiving his sins, but Gu Yu delayed it, of course, Gu Hai didn't care that he didn't ask for his life, but was chilled by his approach.

"You reckless man, if it weren't for your arrogant behavior, how would I have suffered such a change!" Gu Yu naturally heard what he meant, and his heart was furious, and he kicked Gu Hai away.

"It's all you who hurt me, it's all you who hurt me!" He pounced on him and hit him again with hatred.

Only then did Gu Hai react to what he meant.

This is also the second sensational event after this court examination, the champion does not need to participate in the court examination, and directly enters the Hanlin Academy to be a Hanlin master, but this time the champion Gu Yu was unexpectedly sent to a county in Dazhou to do the county order, the reason is that he is young and needs to be experienced.

This unprecedented event caused an immediate uproar, and of course no one believed the high-sounding reason, and soon the true reason was revealed.

The matter is really because of Gu Hai, since the king of Wenjun sent someone to ask Lord Zhu what he said, Lord Zhu entered the palace in a few days, and there were several other officials present at that time.

"Your Majesty the troublesome Jinshi in the prison can see if they can be released?" The old man opened his mouth and said directly.

These words made the other officials present gasp, Li Daxue was sentenced to death, and the emperor also said that he would never spare the Jinshi trouble, how could these Jinshi have to accompany the teacher on the road, why did Lord Zhu suddenly say this? Isn't this disobedience to the emperor? Lord Zhu, who has always been proficient in sycophancy, shouldn't be confused?

But the facts have once again taken these officials by surprise.

The emperor snorted heavily, "I'm afraid that the shafters don't know their crimes!"

The emperor's face was ugly, and his voice was quite heavy, but the meaning of this sentence could not be more obvious, it was clear that these Jinshi were regarded as naughty children, not as a party of Li Daxue.

Sure enough, it was as he guessed, the emperor didn't want the lives of these jinshi, Lord Zhu was happy that he guessed the sacred heart, but at the same time, he felt a little uncomfortable, and felt that the emperor didn't seem to be as good to him as before....

I think that when the Privy Council edited Zhang Quan's book, it was already very harsh to degrade him to Zhaozhou, but the emperor was still unhappy with himself, and he was stunned and demoted Zhang Quan to Anyuan, Anyuan This place has always been a place where everyone has no return, and sure enough, Zhang Quan died there.

This time, the emperor seemed to be so angry, but it turned out to be just thunder and rain.....

But at this time, Lord Zhu couldn't help but follow the emperor's words, so he said some good things, and the emperor went down the slope to the donkey to release these jinshi.

The matter was originally over here, but somehow the emperor joked with the old man on a whim, asking him if he had accepted anyone's favor, and even came to say good things for the person who scolded him.

Lord Zhu didn't hide it, and said that King Wenjun confessed it with some words of loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness.

The emperor heard that King Wenjun had met Gu Hai, and heard that Lord Zhu's righteous son was willing to exchange his life for his life to save Gu Hai, which touched the loneliness of the lonely family, and invited King Wenjun over and praised him in public.

This was unexpected by King Wenjun, and he didn't mention it for the time being, and said that the emperor thought in a blink of an eye that these outsiders and people who were friends on the other side could still intercede for Gu Hai, how could Gu Yu, who was the brother of the same clan, not say a word so far.

So the emperor was very angry, thinking that Gu Yu was avoiding trouble and ignoring his blood relatives, so he sent an edict to send him, the champion, to be the county commander of Qipin, so that he could observe the world and know the warmth and coldness.

Gu Hai also heard this, and although he was pressed to the ground by Gu Yu, he laughed.

"I'm hurting you? You're wrong, it's you who hurt yourself," he laughed, holding Gu Yu's fist with one hand, "The same clan and the same clan, called a clan?" One glory and one loss, do you think you can only gloat when I encounter a disaster? "No mistakes, no skipping words.
