Xue Mansion.

The brush was put into the pen washing, and Xue Zhenye picked up the letter with both hands and blew it gently, and then folded it and placed it on the table after it dried.

Dongxue didn't know what to do, so that the aunt came forward to say Xiang and left it by Xue Zhenye's side. This move caused all the maids of the Xue family to look at her angrily, but this woman was scheming, ignoring the cynicism around her, and only sticking to Xue Zhenye's side, waiting for an opportunity to drill into the bed, and since then she has become the envy of countless maidservants.

Xue Zhenye stretched his muscles, and after a while, a servant girl rushed in, and said in a panic: "Erlang, the officials of Yingtianfu came from outside, saying that they were ordered to detain Erlang." Erlang is going to the middle courtyard, Mrs. is panicked at this time, and is ordering someone to pick up the soft and let Erlang hide out for the time being. ”

"Ying Tianfu Servant?" Xue Zhenye suddenly had a bottom in his heart. Ying Tianfu is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the ordinary foreign prefect is just the fourth grade, and this Ying Tianfu prefect is a high-ranking official of the third grade.

It is also a coincidence that the engraved Liu Xuan, the prefect of Yingtianfu, is a close friend in the pavilion of his cheap father Xue Xun. Yesterday, Xue Zhenye also came to visit with gifts, and Liu Xuan said at that time that he would only wait for Xue Xun to take office and visit again after a little free time.

Since it was the official of Yingtianfu who came, what else was there to be afraid of?

Xue Zhenye nodded, and instructed at Dong Xue: "If the master returns to the house, submit this letter to the master." ”

"Slave knows."

Xue Zhenye walked with his hands in his hands and slowly walked to the middle courtyard. The third aunt Sun Bayao was already as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and when she saw Xue Zhenye immediately rushing out of the room, she said eagerly in front of her: "Little Xue Ng, what kind of lawsuit have you caused again?" How did you recruit the officials of Yingtianfu to the door? ”

Xue Zhenye soothed: "Third aunt, don't be surprised, I haven't done anything wrong, I'm afraid of responding to the officials of the Heavenly Mansion?" ”

Where is Sun Baguio willing to believe? He only said: "Erlang, if it really happens, it will be easy to be detained in Ying Tianfu and not be able to turn around." I have sent the servants of the family to look for the master, why don't you leave through the back door, and go to your grandfather's house to avoid the limelight first. ”

The third aunt has taken Xue Zhenye since she was a child, and she almost treats her as her own, and it is also the separation of the two places over the years, which makes the two of them a little different. Xue Zhenye recalled the memory of his original body, and there was a warm current in his heart, so he took the third aunt's hand and patted it: "Third aunt and relieved, then the prefect of Yingtianfu is the master's best friend, and I am the prison of Yingtianfu?" Uncle Liu won't treat me badly, right? ”

Sun Biyao has been smart since she was a child, and she was worried about it, and she was reminded by Xue Zhenye and immediately woke up. She breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, and immediately glanced at Xue Zhenye: "That filthy place in the prison, you have been weak since you were a child, and you can't stand it even if you stay for a long time, where can you go?" ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Xue Zhenye with his backhand and walked straight to the front yard: "I will go out and show my face, but I want to ask the officials of the Ying Tianfu why they came to the Xue family to get people." ”

Xue Zhenye couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to be dragged to the front yard.

Sun Biyao took out the style of being the housewife and ordered Steward Zhou to invite the servants to the court.

The official was forty years old, and his complexion was quite slippery. When he went to the hall, he immediately bowed and saluted: "Little Li Zhongxi has seen Anren and Xue Yanei. ”

Sun Biyao glanced at him coldly with a pair of apricot eyes, and said, "I heard that Li Zhutou came to get my Erlang this time?" I don't know which royal law my Erlang has violated? ”

Li Zhongxi smiled and said: "Hui'an people, the little ones are also confused. Just after noon, the yamen got a holy decree, and the emperor ordered Xue Xun to be detained by Tianfu......"

Sun Biyao suddenly changed color and looked at Xue Zhenye uneasily.

That Li Zhongxi knew the relationship between the eldest master and the Xue family, and immediately said in a low voice: "I heard that the little one seems to be the Duke of Wei who knocked on the Que and shouted injustice, saying that it was the second lang of your mansion who beat his third son Xu Fu to the point that he lost half his life. The saint was furious, so he ordered Tianfu to take people. Ann, look ......"

As soon as she heard Xu Fu's words, Sun Biyao suddenly understood that these eight achievements were done by Xue Zhenyi. Wan Youshen glared at Xue Zhenyi, and Sun Biyao said: "This is unusual, my family's Erlang keeps to himself, except for visiting relatives and friends these days, he stays at home when he is around." These two doors have never come out, how did they beat that Xu Fu? ”

Li Zhongxi continued to smile: "Anren, the small one is just a small head catcher, and when it comes to such matters, the big man is in charge, and the small one really can't intervene." ”

Sun Biyao thought about it, the emperor's order was difficult to disobey, and obviously she couldn't disobey the order, so she said: "Since this is the case, Erlang will follow Li Zhutou to go on a journey." But there is a word in advance, if my Erlang really does such a bastard thing, he will fight or kill his own national law; If Erlang hadn't done it, you wouldn't have been able to slander Erlang's reputation. ”

Li Zhongxi immediately bowed his hand and said: "Rest assured, the eldest master has instructed that this time Erlang will be invited to the court just to verify, and if there is no evidence, he will definitely not use means." ”

Sun Biyao answered, picked up the teacup and looked at Xue Zhenye. Xue Zhenye smiled at the third aunt, walked two steps to Li Zhongxi's side, and saluted: "Li Zhutou, then there will be work." ”

"Don't dare, Xue Yanei, please."

Out of the house, Xue Zhenye glanced at it, and saw two old horses tied to the horse leash, scratched his head slightly and said, "Li Zhutou, how are we going?" ”

Li Zhutou said embarrassedly: "Forgive me, the old man is in a hurry, and the small one is in a hurry, but it is not possible to prepare the frame...... Please also ask the yamanai to prepare his own carriage and horses. ”

"It's fine." Xue Zhenye had not yet commanded, and the housekeeper Lao Zhou suddenly asked someone to bring in a big dark horse.

The three of them turned over and got on the horse, Xue Zhenye was already tall, and when he got on the horse, he was more than a head taller than the two officials. That's it, the two officials rode the post horses eliminated by the post station, and they were already old and weak, and the big black horse under Xue Zhenyi's crotch was an authentic Hexi Ming horse, fat and strong.

The three of them were about to get up all the way, and the big black horse came to lose his temper, and he walked faster and faster, leaving only the two officials far behind.

The little official really couldn't bear it, and couldn't help but mutter: "Li Tou, let this yamen be presumptuous?" It's a Qin criminal, who brought the past like this and swaggered through the market, I'm not afraid to eat the head of the row in the future? ”

Li Zhutou said in a low voice: "The gods are fighting, and I still don't want to mix with the little shrimp." If it weren't for your master's face, Lao Tzu wouldn't have taken you with him. Xiaoliu, this should be Tianfu tolerance to look at the style, if you don't change your temperament, you will lose your errand at the least, and at worst you will harm your family, remember to remember! ”

The words were divided into two ends, and it was said that Xue Zhenye had just left Xue's mansion for only two moments, and a silver-topped soap curtain official sedan chair quickly entered Xue's house. After getting off the sedan chair, the housekeeper Lao Zhou hurriedly stepped forward and lifted the curtain, and Xue Xun, who was dressed in vermilion and purple, walked quickly into the inner house.

Sun Biyao greeted the general, and suddenly had a backbone, and said: "Master, Erlang was detained by Ying Tianfu. ”

"Don't panic, speak slowly."

Sun Biyao made a long story short and told all the previous stories. Xue Xun had just taken over the Yamen of the General Administration, and he was busy for a while. I vaguely heard that Wei Guogong was knocking on the Que and shouting grievances, but he was so busy that he didn't know that the object of Wei's announcement was actually his own son.

"Baguio, don't panic, since Erlang went to the Yingtianfu Yamen, there will be no trouble for a while. Before Erlang leaves, what words can he leave behind? ”

"It's the same as what the master said, and nothing else."

At this moment, Dongxue hurriedly shouted outside the hall: "Master, wife, Erlang left a letter before leaving. ”

Sun Biyao suddenly got up: "Hurry up and bring it!" You don't know how to do it, why did you take it out now? ”

Dongxue said aggrievedly: "Erlang ordered, this letter is for the master......"

Sun Biyao was angry: "Okay, you only have Erlang in your eyes, where is my wife?" ”

Dongxue was so shocked that she hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "The slave and maid should die, the slave and maid only remembered Erlang's instructions, and there was absolutely no disrespect for the wife." ”

Xue Xun put down the teacup lightly and heavily, and the two of them stopped talking, and then spoke: "What is such a trivial matter?" Why don't you get the letter? ”

Sun Biyao glared at Dongxue fiercely, and made up her mind to turn around and drive this Dongxue back to Sun's house, and then handed the letter to Xue Xun.

Xue Xun unfolded the letter, looked at ten lines at a glance, and read it again from the beginning. After reading the letter, Xue Xun put it down, handed it to Sun Biyao casually, stroked his beard and said thoughtfully: "Erlang is smart, but he lacks some experience. Looking at this calculation, I am afraid that the calculation is clearer than the previous Mr. Bai. ”

Sun Biyao read the letter, thought for a while before speaking: "Master, then let's wait and see what happens?" ”

Xue Xun picked up the teacup and said leisurely: "The children are messing around, so naturally let the children deal with it." That Wei Guogong relied on the old and sold the old, and the saint was tired of it for a long time. Erlang wanted to come and do things properly, but he said that there was no proof of death, and he couldn't get evidence if he wanted to come to Wei Guogong. In this case, it is better for us to be still than to be still. This time the stone throws the stone and asks for directions, it depends on what the person does. ”

"The man?"

Xue Xun lowered his head and drank tea, but he didn't mention who 'that person' was. It's just that he and Xue Zhenye both know that person is the King of Qi.

………………………………

Ying Tianfu Yamen.

In the official system, there is a prefect and one person in a government, and the two officials on the left are attached to the same knowledge, general judgment, experience, promotion of officials, governors, etc.

Among them, the person in charge of the punishment is the magistrate. Xue Zhenye was introduced into the Tuiguan Hall by Li Zhutou at this moment, and immediately invited him to sit down, and let the officials serve fragrant tea.

Ying Tianfu's magistrate took Wu Zuogang to explore a tragic scene in the morning, and hurriedly returned and just drank a cup of tea, he was urged to go to the court by the public.

The magistrate said impatiently: "What kind of eucalyptus is it?" Can't tolerate a retrial? ”

The public said: "The lord must not be lazy, this eucalyptus saint should be tried by heaven, and the lord will not be able to protect if he does not handle the black yarn well." ”

The pusher was taken aback: "Huh? Eucalyptus? Since Qin Yu, why don't you let the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate try it, and it will be difficult to respond to Tianfu? ”

The duke said with a bitter face: "Where does the little one know that the inner twists and turns?" It's just that the master is careful, the prisoner is the son of the new political envoy Xue Xun. ”

The pusher began to inhale the cold air, twisting his beard and pondering. At this moment, another public came to urge: "The lord is coming to the hall quickly, the lord said that he wants to listen to the eucalyptus, and he will arrive in a moment." ”

The magistrate was so shocked that he pulled off a beard, grinned and hissed for a long time, and his hanging heart fell to the ground. The eldest lord and the new political envoy have a good relationship, with the eldest lord here, he is just a mouthpiece, where is there room to play?

The magistrate didn't dare to slack off, so he sorted out his robe and went to court.

As soon as he sat down, there was a shout from the servant, and the eldest lord Liu Xuan strode over. The pusher and Xue Zhenye stood up to salute, Liu Xuan waved his hand to let the pusher continue to sit in the main seat, and he pulled a chair to listen by himself.

Catching a glimpse of Xue Zhenye with a smile in his eyebrows, Liu Xuan glared at him, and then coughed: "In this way, then it will be promoted." ”

The pusher slapped the shocked wood, and the left and right officials held water and fire sticks, shouting in unison 'mighty'.

Xue Zhenye didn't sit down anymore, got up and stood with his hands tied, waiting for the inquiry.

Only then did the magistrate vacate the time to look at the people standing under the hall, and after only a glance, he secretly praised in his heart, what a young man in brocade, and he was a good Sai Pan An and Sheng Weiyu.

Collecting his thoughts, he was shocked: "Standing in the hall is Xue Yi?" ”

Xue Zhenyi said: "Back to Si Li (Tui Guan Ya name), the poor road is exact." ”

"I ask you, where were you this morning?"

"I took my entourage to Shenjing in the morning and returned home before noon."

"Someone accused you of recklessly assaulting Xu Fu, the third son of Wei Guogong, do you have any defense?"

Xue Zhenye said: "On the merits, please also ask Si Li to call the shots." ”

"This ......" the pusher scratched his head and looked at his subordinates to catch their heads: "Have you ever obtained human and physical evidence?" ”

Li Zhutou immediately came out and hugged his fists and said: "My lord, the little one sent someone to the Wei State Mansion earlier to bring all the witnesses. ”

The magistrate nodded: "In this case, let Xue Ye go down for the time being, and bring someone to testify first." ”

Xue Zhenye saluted the magistrate and the prefect, and went to the side hall with the officials. After a while, a group of subordinates from the Duke of Wei came outside, pushing officials to ask, and the subordinates were gossiping.

Xue Zhenye was deaf and clear-sighted, and he could hear that the group of subordinates were not on the horse's lips, and for a while he said that the beater was Angzang Ju Khan, and for a while he said that he was a young man who was more than five feet long, and immediately pursed his lips and laughed secretly.

This transfiguration technique is not an ordinary trick to cover the eyes, and it cannot be easily solved. The Duke of Wei responded in a hurry, and only then did he describe his appearance to a cadre of witnesses. It's just that he lives in a simple place, even that Xu Fu has never seen it, where can he tell it clearly for a while?

The officials in the hall were embarrassed, and some officials tiptoed to their front and whispered a few words in their ears. The official's eyes lit up, and he asked the public to arrange it himself.

After a while, the duke looked for Xue Zhenye and begged him to change his robe. Xue Zhenye had no choice but to change into ordinary clothes, and after a while, under the guidance of the public, he re-entered the court with the three public officials who had changed their clothes.

The official was old in his name, and ordered Xue Zhenye to stand side by side with the other three people, and bring witnesses to identify them one by one. Where have these officials of the Wei Mansion seen Xue Zhenyi? Of the more than 20 servants, only three of them pointed to Xue Zhenye casually, the remaining half pointed to the fat and strong Hu Zhutou, and half pointed to the official who changed into Xue Zhenye's clothes.

Yoo Hyun, who was with the old god on the side, finally got righteousness, where could he still endure it? Immediately slammed the teacup and shouted: "How can this be true! Indiscriminately identifies and frames others, such black-hearted servants, I'm afraid that if you don't fight, you won't be able to tell the truth! ”

The push official gritted his teeth, pulled out the arrow and threw it down: "Come on, hit this official!" Under Miki, the official doesn't believe in such pickled goods and doesn't tell the truth. ”

The steward of the Wei State Mansion who led the team suddenly said angrily: "Little push official, dare to beat the servants of the Wei State Mansion? You don't want this black hat anymore! ”

Before the official could speak, Yoo Hyun became angry: "This guy despises the court, and he will beat this official!" ”

The eldest lord spoke, where did the officials dare to slacken? Immediately crossed the person, took off his pants, and picked up the water and fire sticks like hot wheels, crackling and wailing.

The housekeeper was born with a son, where did he suffer such flesh and skin? A water and fire stick suddenly hit the feces and urine.

The rest of the servants were no better, and they were all immediately spat out, saying that what they had said earlier was the butler's order.

The magistrate took the scribe's abbreviation and asked a cadre to sign and draw the pledge. Liu Xuan took the certificate and carefully put it away, and said, "This official is going to return to his life...... Xue Xian's nephew? ”

"Taishou?"

Liu Xuan suddenly pulled a face and said: "It's over business, and it's time to talk about personal friendship...... What's the matter, Xiao Xue Ye is still separated from me? ”

"How dare the little nephew? Uncle Liu, please speak. ”

Liu Xuan said with satisfaction: "The eucalyptus situation is clear, this eucalyptus is a false accusation for the Wei State Mansion, and it has nothing to do with the virtuous nephew." It's just that since this eucalyptus is ordered by the Holy Lord, it is not good for me to let the virtuous nephew return first. So...... Virtuous nephew, let's rest here first, and then talk about it when I get back to the saint? ”

"Well, my uncle will go by himself." Xue Zhenye said with a smile: "The first time the little nephew entered the yamen, his heart was very strange, and he just looked around. ”

The magistrate rolled his eyes as he listened...... Like words? Which ordinary person entered the yamen and was not trembling? Only Xue Yi and others can be so relaxed.

Liu Xuan left the yamen and hurriedly entered the palace to resume his life.

However, it was said that Emperor Yan Kang was furious in the morning and ordered someone to lock up Xue Zhenyi, and he forgot about it in a blink of an eye. Since he almost lost his life last time, Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain entered Shenjing to send the Dragon Tiger Pill, and did 7749 days of rituals to pray for Emperor Yan Kang, and Emperor Yan Kang got better.

It's just that the Heavenly Master said first, this Dragon and Tiger Pill can only be taken once in a lifetime in cultivation, and taking more than one is not only beneficial but harmful. This medicine can prolong life for two or three years, and any more depends on personal fate.

And the side effects of this medicine are extremely great, and now Emperor Yankang guards the six palaces of Fandai, and there is no wave in the ancient well in the center. succeeded to the throne for more than 30 years, and in the first ten years, Emperor Yan Kang could be regarded as a Ming monarch; The middle decade is considered an ordinary emperor; In the last ten years, it has been deaf.

Emperor Yan Kangdi knew that his time was running out, and he was jealous of women, so he carefully scrutinized his body. Needless to say, the difficulty is the successor.

carved Emperor Yankang's son to pull out a tall man, and he barely had a candidate, but he hesitated. At this time, he was resting, and a eunuch reported that he was invited to see Liu Xuan, the prefect of Tianfu.

The prefect of Tianfu was extremely important, and Emperor Yan Kang also took a fancy to Liu Xuan's impartiality, so he put him in this position.

Moving to the study, Yoo Hyun came in and saluted respectfully. Emperor Yan Kangdi couldn't bear the cumbersomeness, so he let him get up, and asked the eunuch to move the embroidery pier to let him sit down.

Only then did Emperor Yan Kang ask, "Why is Aiqing here?" ”

"Holy Lord, the minister is here to beat Xu Fu for Xue Yi. The investigation and trial of the magistrate in the government have reached a conclusion, and this is a trial document, and the saint is invited to look at it. ”

Emperor Yan Kang's secret monster memory is getting worse and worse, his expression remains unchanged, and he said: "The Qing family really worked hard and presented it." ”

The eunuch took the paperwork, tiptoed it up and handed it to Emperor Yan Kang. Emperor Yan Kang looked at it at a glance, frowned, and said, "In this way, this eucalyptus has nothing to do with Xue Yi?" ”

Liu Xuan arched his hand and said: "According to the minister, this eucalyptus has no witness, let alone physical evidence, and the perpetrator is Angzang Ju Khan, which has nothing to do with Xue Ye." ”

"Oh...... Could it be that this Xue Ye made people buy murder? ”

Liu Xuan said: "Holy Lord, the minister does not dare to speak falsely. It's just that if you have to investigate the real culprit, you must always take the real culprit and make a conclusion after asking. ”

Emperor Yan Kang thought about it for a while, thinking that Xue Xun had just taken over, and if he had beaten it, he was afraid that he would violate his original intention, so he nodded and said: "Then so be it, this eucalyptus will be taken over by Ying Tianfu, and the murderer must be arrested." As for Xue Ye...... Since it has nothing to do with him, let him go home. ”

"Wang Gui."

"The slave is here." The eunuch who served on the side bowed his head and bowed his hand.

Emperor Yan Kang said: "You go to the Wei Guogong Mansion and scold the Wei Guogong for me." Tell that old man, if he repeats the accusation, I will punish him severely! ”

"The slave obeys."

In the evening, Xue Zhenye, who had drunk a full stomach of tea, rode home on a big black horse. The eunuch Wang Gui went to the Wei State Mansion and scolded the Wei State Gong so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.

When Wang Gui returned, the Duchess wailed: "God, is there still a royal law? Didn't my son be beaten in vain? Master, you have to call the shots for Fu'er. ”

Wei Guogong, who had just been scolded by the eunuch, was already in a bad mood, and when he heard this, he immediately scolded: "That evil obstacle is swaggering all day long, isn't it all what you are used to?" The saint is extremely dissatisfied this time, don't you have to accuse the Xue family?

Stop for a few days, and don't get into trouble again. Otherwise, if you really evil the saints, where will I have good fruit to eat? ”
