Chapter 66: Qing Gao
The few corpses placed in front of the gate of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were quickly disposed of, and the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were all gloomy, coming and going in a hurry, and they could not hear the noisy shouting and scolding in the courtyard.
The people of the Imperial Procuratorate were accumulating anger, and His Majesty in the palace had a cold face for several days, and there was a lot of noise inside and outside the capital, and the officials who had dealings with the southern gate lords were inevitably trembling, for fear of being discouraged one day.
In order to quell the more and more outrageous rumors, and also to maintain the dignity of the royal family, Emperor Liang finally ordered a retrial of Zhang Mingjing's corruption case, but it is very intriguing that the chief official designated by Emperor Liang to be in charge of this matter is not the old and strong Zuodu Yushi Yu Shou, but the right capital Yushi Liang Rang, who has a close relationship with the Zhang family in the south.
Did the news come out, the capital made waves again, Zuodu Yushi lifted the table in public, but did not go to Emperor Liang to argue again, and the gossip who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic was greatly disappointed, it seems that His Majesty just wants to make a show, raise it high, and put it down gently. However, in order to silence the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Qing faction, it is rumored that more than half of the officials will be selected from among the officials who were previously dismissed, and the other half will still be selected.
Yang Mei said the news inside and outside the capital these days, and sighed after speaking: "Hey, I didn't expect Your Majesty to let Liang Yushi be the chief official, hmph, no one inside and outside the capital knows that he is half of the Zhang family's son-in-law." ”
Chu Nan said: "This is also expected, the emperor's mental technique, the most important is the word balance, if the angry Lord Yu is allowed to investigate, which of those gate valves in the south can escape?
After hearing this, Yang Mei was a little displeased, and said: "Why do you always have a bit of a conspiracy flavor as soon as you say this?
Chu Nan said helplessly: "I'm just saying, you just listen to it casually, don't be more serious, okay?"
Yang Mei glared at Chu Nan and sighed: "If Lord Yu persists a little longer, and there is the support of Su University and others, it may not be impossible to take the opportunity and teach the Zhang family a good lesson." ”
Chu Nan muttered, "Women really have long hair and short knowledge. ”
Yang Mei was furious, pointed at Chu Nan and said, "How can I have a short knowledge? Since Lord Yu dared to confront His Majesty in the court last time, this time it may not be impossible for His Majesty to bow his head." ”
Chu Nan put down the teacup in his hand and explained: "Last time, the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were wiped out, there were rumors inside and outside the capital, and the people's grievances were boiling, so Lord Yu also took advantage of the situation and asked His Majesty to order a new investigation of Zhang Mingjing's case, but this time His Majesty has already set the chief official, if Lord Yu goes to make trouble again, it will be ignorant of current affairs, Lord Yu has been watching for decades, how can he not understand this truth?"
Yang Mei was stunned and muttered, "There is some truth in that." Then he pouted and said: "Don't talk about your conspiracy theories, the most important thing now is how to get into the team that went to the south to investigate the case this time, and when the emperor comes back, his identity will be very different." ”
Chu Nan rubbed his eyebrows and said softly: "This should be considered in the long run, and in the long run." ”
Yang Mei crossed her fingers seriously and said: "You see, the biggest topic of the current Liang is the Autumn Expedition and the Northern Expedition, the Autumn Expedition does not have your share, and that Raush ** Ting Yanwu only got a false position as a royal guard, not to mention the Northern Expedition, you don't have the opportunity to practice and follow, now this overturning is your best chance to come out, if you miss it, I don't know when you have to wait." ”
Chu Nan is not very interested, his biggest wish at the moment is to restore his strength, at least he can't let Fei Ying surpass him too far, and he said with a lack of interest: "Okay, you can do it." ”
Yang Mei was a little angry, and finally suppressed the anger in her heart and asked, "Do you have any dealings with that Liang Yushi?" or do you have any friendship with Liang Yushi's son." ”
Chu Nan shook his head and said, "I haven't even seen that Liang Yushi, as for the son of the Liang family, it seems that he is now Chu An's follower." ”
Yang Mei was a little disappointed, and sighed: "I also don't have much friendship with the young lady of the Liang family, so it's a little troublesome now." ”
Chu Nan comforted: "Didn't you say it last time, Your Majesty is not very particular about what meritorious service must be rewarded, isn't it that the personnel have not been determined yet, and it may not be without my share." ”
Yang Mei said sorrowfully: "That's so, but who can know Your Majesty's mind clearly?" After speaking, she stood up and said, "No, sitting here and saying that you can't solve the problem, I'd better go back and ask my mother." ”
Chu Nan looked at Yangmei, who was hurrying out again, shook his head and returned to his cabin, took out the last pill of medicine given by Fei Ying, pulled out the silver needle on his shoulder, carefully put the medicine in his mouth, closed his eyes and slowly gathered his mind.
Or on the peak of Fusang Mountain, there will be clouds and mist in the early morning, and when the weather is clear, you can still see the sea in the distance, and even the air on the mountain has a faint fishy smell of seawater, with a wide field of vision, and the environment is excellent, which is a good place for self-cultivation and self-cultivation.
But an uninvited guest came to such a fairyland, a young man with a hippie smile said something to a man in black who was hidden in the shade of a tree, and behind him a little flat head who looked a little stupid and stupid pulled him hard, full of anxiety but anxious speechless.
The young man held a sword in his hand and kept gesturing at the man in black, who just shook his head and pointed in the direction of the mountain.
The young man was furious, jumped to his feet and scolded, and even took the small flat head behind him in excitement. Seeing that the man in black did not move, the young man simply sat opposite the man in black, and kept chanting words in his mouth.
I don't know how long it took to exert himself, but the boy couldn't remember how many times he had said what he knew, and the man in black seemed to be stimulated, and suddenly burst out, holding the long sword that was lying across his lap in his hand, and stabbed at the boy.
The young man was surprised and delighted, and after pulling out the long sword in his hand, he was shocked to find that he could no longer find the target, and all that covered the sky was the shadow of the sword, and even the sound of the roaring sea in the distance could be faintly heard, as if the fierce voices in the sky had disappeared.
The boy felt a chill in his chest, and lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the long sword passing through his chest, and the sword in the scabbard in his hand had just been half drawn.
The young man who was nailed to a wall seemed to have lost all his life, his face was full of ashes, and he looked extremely miserable.
The flat-headed boy ran up in a panic, holding his hands on the hilt of the sword, as if he was about to pull it out, but the man in black who was sitting down again not far away said something softly, and the flat-headed boy shuddered and stepped aside full of sadness.
The kung fu of the man in black was extremely high, and even if he passed through his chest, he did not let the boy die immediately. Although the meridians of the young man's whole body were sealed, and the whole person was completely angry, he miraculously did not die, and even had the opportunity to observe that the long sword inserted in his chest was just an unbladed half-finished sword embryo.
The essence of the boy's life slowly drained away, becoming more and more like a corpse, but fortunately there was a brainless flat-headed boy who insisted on feeding some liquid food every day, and then muttered to himself.
The brainless flat-headed boy was really brainless, and he never thought of helping the miserable boy to treat his wounds, and in the end, the poor boy who was nailed to the wall mentioned the last bit of energy, looked at the boy sadly, and said something.
The flat-headed boy suddenly realized, and while blaming himself, he took out a few vials that had been stained red with blood from the young man's arms, stuffed the medicine in them into the young man's mouth, poured another glass of water, and then looked at the young man who was gradually unconscious in disappointment.
Maybe it was just a short while, or maybe a long time, until the man in black unlocked the young man's meridians, woke the young man with a slap, and pulled out the long sword in the young man's hazy eyes.
A puddle of strangely colored liquid splashed out of the boy's chest, as if he had lost the last trace of life, and slowly fell to his knees at the feet of the man in black, slowly losing consciousness.
Chu Nan swallowed the medicine slowly, but he didn't know when his eyes were full of moisture, and he touched his chest that was faintly painful, as if the feeling of not being able to die had returned, and he knelt down in a trance, not only lost the realm of hard cultivation, but also lost the self-confidence and pride in his bones, and could only return to the place where he swore that he would never come back again in his life like a lost dog, and learn to slowly get used to everyone's weird gaze.
Chu Nan let out a long breath, looked at the fingers of his right hand that were beating unconsciously, smiled self-deprecatingly, took out a small dagger, cut a cross-shaped wound on his shoulder, and slowly took out a roll of white cloth and wiped away the black and red blood that flowed out.
Chu Nan got dressed, packed his things, and quietly looked at the door. Yang Mei pushed open the door, looked straight at Chu Nan, and said without the slightest emotion: "I asked clearly, it is not your share to go to the south to investigate the case this time." ”
Chu Nan lowered his head and said, "Not surprising. ”
Yang Mei continued: "Your Majesty said that you would draw someone from the Chu family, someone recommended Chu An, and my father-in-law did not object. ”
Chu Nan sighed and said, "It's not strange, Chu An is from the household department, so it's just right to check this." ”
Yang Mei sneered and sneered: "Yes, people are important members of the household department, how much more than a hundred times that you are a waste who eats and waits for death at home, you are so pathetic, I don't bother to give you a chance." ”
Chu Nan smiled and asked, "Waste?" you say I'm waste?"
Yang Mei did not hesitate and sneered: "Yes, you are a waste, this is at least well-known in the Chu family, and it seems that you are happy to admit it." Hmph, I still had a little hope for you after the palace martial arts, but look at what you did next, you were accused of taking medicine to compete for rankings, and it was rumored that you didn't know how to go to study agriculture, and you squandered that prestige. ”
Chu Nan shook his head and did not speak.
Yang Mei was even more angry, and said angrily: "Is there a hidden secret? Then go and explain, even if you go out and say a few words, but look at what you have done, in addition to playing some clever tricks to tease a little girl like Lin'er, and helping Wan'er complete some of her little daughter's thoughts, what else have you done? Why, do you think you are very proud to have the blue eyes of that Oiran or that unknown heroine? Or do you think that I am extremely vulgar, bent on camping, and admiring power? I think I am very high, and I don't bother to explain to a layman like me, but I don't know that you don't have the capital to be high at all! You are just a waste! Waste!
Chu Nan's expression was faint, he looked at the angry Yangmei, slapped it, and said: "This is the first time someone has scolded me like this, and I also know that if I don't beat you, you will be even more disappointed." ”
Yangmei didn't pretend to cover her face and cry out in pain, but just looked at Chu Nan coldly.
Chu Nan slapped himself hard and said lightly: "This is the last time you will be beaten, and it will also be the last time you will have the opportunity to scold me." ”
Chu Nan took out the long sword under the bed, wiped the dust off it with his sleeve, and muttered: "There is only one Fei Ying, she understands me, but you can't, I will let you see my high capital." ”
