Chapter 312: Li Ke leaves the house
With the cold wind of the winter moon of the fifth year of Chunhua, a shocking news spread quickly throughout the Shenyuan Continent, from the bitter cold land in the extreme north to the Rakshasa ghost country, from the middle of Great Xia to the Vientiane city-state on the southeast coast.
The Tsing Yi trial of the Great Xia Dynasty was postponed for three days.
Although the death of the Taiwei was handled as low-key as possible, this kind of thing has always become more and more popular among the people, evolving countless versions, and finally linking this matter to the postponement of the Tsing Yi test.
After all, Taiwei Yang has been appointed as the director of Zhongyi Hall Dabi, and the official in charge is now dead, and it is said that he will be selected again. But Tsing Yi has become a competition ground for all forces, how can there be a suitable person who is elected at a moment and a half, always this party agrees, that side opposes, the emperor agrees, but the two forces are silent, pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Regarding the death of Taiwei, of course, the most rumors came from the assassins sent by Prime Minister Lu Cheng, but there was no news in the palace to investigate the matter.
More importantly, because of the vacant position vacated by the death of the Taiwei, it became the target of countless people within the dynasty. The civil and military officials who are slightly qualified have not been able to sleep well in the past few days, thinking about it and planning this, going to go that way, carefully weighing the strengths and weaknesses of the two major forces in the court.
Taiwei, one of the three major power positions in the Great Xia Dynasty, second only to the prime minister and sacrificial wine, was admired by hundreds of officials during his lifetime, was in charge of the army of thousands of tigers and wolves, entered the royal mausoleum after his death, and enjoyed the Yin Ritual for 10,000 years.
Dong Feixiong admits that with his resume, he still owes some time to be promoted to this position, but in the stories of the previous dynasty, there are many examples of one step to the sky, not to mention that he is already the Yin of Yingdu Mansion, and it doesn't seem to be too eye-catching to really sit in the position of the captain.
Looking at the yard, the fallen leaves swirling in the cold wind, Dong Feixiong, who was distracted on the surface and agitated in his heart, naturally knew that this kind of unreasonable nonsense at this time was a manifestation of his own chaos, but in front of this position, I am afraid that there are few people who are not chaotic, so he forgave himself, and he was not calm enough at this time.
He called the servants, made a blazing charcoal fire in the middle of the hall, stewed a large pot of venison, and served it with a few fresh fruits and vegetables, and ate it with his wife and a few cronies who were walking in the hall.
Dong Feixiong's wife was gentle and virtuous on the surface, but in fact she was a very assertive woman, and at the beginning, she still followed the rules of not leaving the inner house and not serving the table with her cronies, but now she has long let go, and she does not taboo the etiquette of the Great Xia Dynasty, so she eats meat with the men at this table.
The wind outside was bone-chilling, and the room was full of light, Mrs. Sun, looking at Dong Feixiong with an absent-minded look, in front of the subordinates, kept putting meat into the bowl of his father-in-law.
Although her man is ugly, Mrs. Sun knows that he is a man who can rely on and has the ability, besides, men, ugliness has the vicissitudes of life, those little white faces are just coaxing people with better kung fu, and if you really want to run a family, there is comparable to your own father-in-law.
Lord Fu Yin looked at the venison that had been piled up like a hill in the bowl, and secretly glanced at Madame, but he didn't dare not eat it, so he just took a big bite as if it was being used.
The venison was served with the high-quality bamboo leaf green soju, and as soon as he ate it, the anger attacked outward, and Dong Feixiong, who originally had a flower willow wound on his body, only felt that ten thousand ants drilled his heart at the moment, but he didn't dare to scratch his hands, for fear that the always shrewd and powerful lady would find out what signs, and he just hummed with his teeth bared.
While eating, Dong Feixiong suddenly saw Xiao Si, a henchman beside him, next to the doorpost outside the hall, showing his head, sly smiling at him, and quickly disappeared.
Dong Feixiong sighed in his heart, for fear that the woman would find out, so he pressed his thoughts, gently put down his chopsticks, pressed his head with both hands, frowned, and looked pained.
"Xianggong is uncomfortable?" asked Mrs. Sun.
"Maybe I entered the palace at night a few days ago and contracted a cold, and I have a headache at this time. ”
......
"Don't eat it! Help the adults go back and rest!"
Mrs. Sun stopped drinking, and the subordinates hurriedly put down their chopsticks, and even the meat that was chewing at the corner of their mouths hurriedly spit in the Meng Yu at their feet.
Dong Feixiong seemed to have received amnesty, and quickly walked with a few subordinates to a solitary room in the inner hall.
............
The morning after Yang Lin's death, Xu Feng and Jiang Liao finally saw Li Ke, whom they had not seen for a long time, in the small courtyard.
was originally tall, but now he is skinny and taller, like a penny that is supported, as if it may fall at any time.
With a pale face, sunken cheeks, a beard more than half a foot long, and even more dirty hair, he could no longer see the style of the young master of Li Jiazhuang, but he looked like a Taoist priest in that broken temple, with a rancid smell all over his body.
“...... Why bother yourself so much. Xu Feng covered his mouth and nose and said.
Although he was sloppy and weak to the extreme, his eyes were bright and shining.
Li Ke bowed unhurriedly to Xu Feng and said, "If you have to suffer hardship, you will become a master." Then he just glanced at Jiang Liao, as if he was in a hurry, and walked out of the courtyard quickly.
"It's crazy, I want to be an official!" Jiang Liao said.
Xu Feng looked at the figure that was floating when he was walking in prostration, and said thoughtfully: "In these years, it is not easy to be an official, if you want to be a good official, you have to be worse than a bad official." ”
Jiang Liao seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and when he turned his head to look, he found that Li Ke walked out, the door of the house was not closed, and the open house had been completely messed up like a dog kennel.
The two glanced at each other, knowing that Li Ke would not come back.
Xu Feng's brows suddenly wrinkled slightly, he just thought of something, and sure enough, he came. Ding Bo, who was carrying a cane, scolded, and ran until he reached the door of Li Ke's room, where he almost fainted from the stench in the room, turned around, and pointed at Xu Feng and Jiang Liao tremblingly: "You...... You are responsible!"
The tenants in those yards came out one after another, and the cold north wind blew, and the yard was full of stench.
"Alas, it's crazy, I can't go out of the house to eat, drink, or Lazar. An aunt, speaking with a southern accent, said with a stingy look in her eyes.
"I heard that those students who had been holding back their strength for a long time and were ready to show their talents, because of the postponement of the Tsing Yi test, their breath was violently discharged, and many of them were seriously ill. The old man, who was carrying a long fishing rod on his back and was dressed in short clothes in the cold weather, explained.
"Isn't it flower willow disease, haha......" A strong man was completely unaffected by the smell, and said loudly as he nibbled on the bun in his hand.
Everyone looked sideways and cast disdainful glances.
People with different occupations from all over the world can live in this Ding family compound together, which is also a kind of fate, although they don't interact much on weekdays, but they are all nodding neighbors, and they take care of each other for some things. The strong man was embarrassed by everyone, covered the bun with his hands, and walked out of the courtyard in a stupid manner, probably a wrestler carrying a bag by the Yishui River on the outskirts of the city.
In fact, what the strong man said also has some truth, the rich and noble children of various states and counties, under the banner of coming to Yingdu to participate in the Tsing Yi test, squandered the family's silver unscrupulously. All kinds of tricks are staged in the major restaurants and brothels in Yingdu, and a few strange news will be spread every day, making the atmosphere before the New Year more lively.
While everyone was talking, Xu Feng had already stepped forward, helped Ding Bo, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Ding Bo, we are responsible, absolutely clean up, and completely restore the original state." ”
Ding Bo coughed a few times, and then returned to the middle hall tremblingly, and a few kind-hearted ladies also supported him for a while, for fear that the old man would be angry and make some mistakes, until the old man insisted on refusing, so he stopped and returned.
"And you have to spend money. ”
I don't know when, Wang Cuihua was already standing behind Xu Feng and Jiang Liao.
"Flowers, as long as Brother Li Ke can be officials, the silver will be worth spent. Jiang Liao said a little angrily.
Xu Feng knew that Jiang Liao still disdained Li Ke's desperate drill camp, and said lightly: "In order to seek fame, there are people with heads hanging beams and cones and thorns, but compared with this one, they are far behind." The so-called never forget, there will be repercussions, Li Ke can be so resolute, probably can really succeed. ”
