Volume 1 One Hand Covers the Sky Chapter 76 Knowing Mistakes
As he spoke, he suddenly stopped talking and began to cry.
When the old lady heard the three words of Jin Wangfu, her white eyebrows suddenly raised, and she was silent, staring at Hu Biaozhen.
It wasn't until the maid brought the clothes and the servant behind her carried a basin of hot water that the eldest lady bowed her head and said, "Wait for Lord Hu to change his clothes, don't get cold."
The maid put down her clothes and stepped forward to help people, but Hu Biaozhen pushed them away, he snorted heavily, and solemnly saluted with both hands and said, "The students are here to worship Lord Chen Yuwan tonight, there is no need to change clothes, and the old lady is invited to let the students enter to worship."
The old lady heard that there was anger in his words, and she glanced at the people on her left and right, and then she stepped out of the way, and said, "Then please."
Hu Biaozhen bowed again, got up and climbed the threshold and walked until he reached the front of the mourning hall.
The old lady followed in, she waved away the maid, lit the incense herself, and handed it to Hu Biaozhen. Then he watched him hold incense high and gaze at the vertical spiritual position on the spirit table.
Chen Yuwan.
"Adults, students." Hu Biaozhen choked with a slid throat, raised his fragrant red eyes, and hissed, "The student has come to see you."
He bowed three times in succession, and then inserted the incense into the incense case.
"You've got a heart." The old lady sent someone to move the chair over, and after she sat down, she sighed, and said, "When the old man was still in the boudoir, I couldn't hear it outside, but I heard some rumors from my husband when I was at home. Back then, my husband often said that among the poor students in Chongdu, you were the most famous."
"Madame, don't laugh at the students." Hu Biaozhen wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "When students were young, they were arrogant and arrogant, thinking that they were blessed with immortal talents, but they were not recommended by the college for three consecutive years. It was the adults who threw the green branches and pulled the students along."
The old lady laughed slowly as if in amusement, and said, "You remember, hehe. You, you, being a student at the time was ridiculous compared to being an official now. took people to smash the gate of the official residence, and also teamed up with classmates to secretly unload the wheel. Call me my husband, and I'm walking to the court."
Hu Biaozhen's face was a little embarrassed, and he said astringently, "Madame still remembers the shame of the student when he was young and frivolous, and the student was ashamed. He is a good official, even if he collects thousands of dollars, he can be scattered among the people, Menzhou is rich because of him, the people live and work in peace and contentment, spring planting and autumn harvest, the four seasons are like yesterday, this kind of weather is the rest of the eight states can not catch up. Gu Zaiqing was just confused and wrong for a while, but even today, the students still feel sorry for him."
Speaking of the past, the tense atmosphere around him has eased a lot.
The old lady held the handrail with one hand and said with a smile, "Gu Zaiqing is confused, you are also confused. We'll see." She pointed out that Hu Biao was really filthy, "At such an age, the doll in the family has now married and had children. Isn't it a joke that you, a person from your grandfather's generation, shout and walk at night when you are outside and spread the word?"
"Students." Hu Biaozhen listened to the words and showed a sad look, "I'm ashamed, the eldest lady taught me a lesson."
The old lady saw that his distress tonight must have something to do with King Jin, so she waved her hand and smiled kindly, "The old man is a woman, and his words are rough, so Master Hu is not surprised. The man is angry outside, he has to find a place to spread fire, the old body rarely hears about the outside on weekdays, today, Lord Hu will complain to the old body about the bitter water, and the old body will also listen to your grievances for my eldest son."
"Ma'am." Hu Biaozhen's eyes trembled, "Student, student, I'm really sorry for Madame, I'm sorry for Lord Chen Yuwan, I'm sorry for Chen!"
His throat slid between him, his depressed breath tangled in his chest, and he immediately bowed down and choked up.
"It's okay to cry and cry in the old body, but don't let the outside see it." The old lady tilted her head slightly against the armrest, and she seemed to ask curiously, "What is the matter?" And tell me about it?"
Hu Biaozhen raised his head tremblingly, looked at the old lady's kind smile, and only after a while did he squirm his lips and teeth, and with great difficulty, he confided in a false voice the things in the Outer Nine Cities and the Jin Palace.
The old lady listened and bowed her head repeatedly, occasionally interjecting and whispering "um", until the whole thing was explained clearly, and she gradually restrained her smile.
"The old body understands. Woe to the outer nine cities, between gangs
Killing and fighting, the Yulin army took advantage of the chaos to commit murder, and the spearhead was directly aimed at Taiwei and King Qin." The old lady cleared her mind, pondered for a moment, and said, "Pang is commonplace, and his methods cannot be described as old-fashioned. Prison, he's eyeing it."
Hu Biaozhen hung his head gloomily, his hands on his knees trembling, and he said, "It's the student's fault."
"What's wrong with you?" The old lady asked surprisingly calmly, "Your Majesty ignores the government and government, and all affairs are handled by Shang Shutai, Pang Sikong decides the affairs of Zheng Guo, and Yulin Jun is not close to Taiwei. Even if Bing Cao went to fetch people tonight, there were so many people, and the scene was chaotic, could he control the scene with the prison alone?"
"But ......," Hu Biaozhen wanted to speak, but stopped, "This is my duty, if the student is not upset about this matter-"
"There's a lot of people here." The old lady interrupted him, and then said earnestly, "The Chongdu patrol is now under the control of the forbidden army in the west of the city. The Yulin Army was subordinate to the Forbidden Army and was led by the Taiwei Zhihu Fu. The affairs of training the new army were under the jurisdiction of the King of Qin. Although it is the duty of the prison soldier Cao to be responsible for arresting criminals, but the three people in the crowd, the ten people in the group, the gangs fighting each other, have already belonged to the responsibility of the forbidden army in the west of the city, what are you fooling in?"
Hu Biaozhen listened to the words and thought carefully, and then explained: "But if the prison does not send people to suppress it, then it will also be held accountable. Now that Master Tingwei is not in Chongdu, the students should set an example and help take care of the prison."
"Master Hu, you are in charge of Ting Weiping, and the two sons of the old man who are in charge of the prison above you are." The old lady shrunk her neck and frowned, "The one who should be in charge should be my indisputable golden qiu. What you have to do is do what you are told. Now look, the old son is not in a hurry, you are in a hurry to set yourself on fire. The people say that the rough words are good, and if you can tolerate people to eat a few more bowls of rice, then you will have a little more strength. According to the old body, if you don't have that diamond, don't go to the porcelain work, and if you say it, the sin is great." z.br>
Hu Biaozhen suddenly understood, and he said with remorse: "The student is offended, the student deserves to die, but now the big mistake has been made, and when the people of King Jin arrive, I am afraid that the prison will be walking on thin ice." It's all students......"
He slammed his head to the ground, choking and shaking his shoulders.
"When a person makes a mistake, there is always a way to make up for it. People always make mistakes, and if they are wrong, they will be corrected." The old lady leaned over and patted him on the shoulder, as if admonishing, "But you must know what you are wrong."
"It's wrong that you shouldn't have entered the Jin Palace." Hu Biaozhen choked up and straightened up, "It's even more wrong not to ask for that infamous Pang Boyi!"
"Wrong, you're wrong again. You." The old lady took out the embroidered jacket and handed it to him, and said softly, "The mistake is that I am impatient."
Hu Biaozhen's eyes widened slightly in surprise and asked, "The student is stupid, what does Madame mean?"
"The Taiwei was derelict in his duties, and the King of Qin was also derelict in his duties. But you can use your brain." The old lady's fingertips touched her white sideburns, "King Qin is the only son of the queen, and she is the pillow person who lingers on the dragon couch, even if His Majesty ignores the government and politics, she is still the king of a country. Pang Sikong got the help of the queen in his early years, and now he wants to take the lead, and he has to pinch some family resources to compete with him, but the military power is held in the hands of the captain, and the armor soldiers of the Red Pass are all interested in him, Pang Sikong can't move him, and he doesn't dare to move him. As for King Qin, how could Pang Sikong dare to give his small shoes so easily? Guess he's fishing tonight, waiting, you're a big fish."
A bit of analysis.
Hu Biaozhen's pupils shrank suddenly, he raised his head blankly, and said in a daze: "The student has been in the sea for half his life, and he is still so impetuous. The student is ashamed of the favor of Lord Chen Yuwan, and the student should be damned, ma'am." Tears on his face slumped down the bridge of his nose, and he said in a loud voice, "The student will go to the Golden Palace tomorrow, take the guilt of Jing and ask for it, and take full responsibility!"
He was about to get up and go out, but the eldest lady snorted and shouted, "Stop!"
Hu Biaozhen stood still at the time, his figure bowing.
"I know that I am impetuous, why are I still so reckless?" The old lady stood up with the handrail, and the maid handed over the cane, and she raised her hand to take it, "Even if you meet Your Majesty in person, in what capacity do you ask for sin?" You are Ting Weiping, and you have to trace back to the top to correct its roots. At that time, it will be the prison officials who will be involved, not just you!"
Boom!
The crutches slammed to the ground, and Hu Biao was really like a frightened bird
He turned around and said with tears streaming down his face, "Madam, the student deserves death for killing his comrades in prison!"
"If you are wrong, you are wrong, others laugh at you for being wrong, but the old body thinks that you are wrong!" The old lady approached on crutches, "Why not be wrong? The prison has been in charge of the Chen family for generations, and the officials under the door are all incorruptible protégés. But being made by Ann ***, how can he still make him roll over the waves? Be innocent and at ease, not afraid of others to find out."
Hu Biaozhen had already lost his sense of proportion, and he asked blankly, "According to the eldest lady's opinion, what should students do to save the prison?"
The old lady crossed to the eaves with a cane, looked at the fine rain, and said calmly, "If you can't hide, then don't hide." Pang Sikong thought that if he sent someone in, he would be able to sit in the position of the left prisoner of the court captain? As everyone knows, the performance evaluation of the prison is like nine heavens, and even the eldest son of the old body is busy with gray hair before he can climb up. He sent it, you can't be the master of promotion, let people do things in prison, and see what he is capable of. If he has great ability, why can't he give up the position of the left eunuch of Tingwei to him? The main thing is that the heart must be clean."
Hu Biaozhen also nodded approvingly, saying, "The old lady does not exclude relatives and treats everyone equally. The students were narrow-minded and taught."
"People outside say that Qiu Sheng is a living Yama, Hiraoka is an angry bodhisattva, and Jin Qiu is a smiling tiger, all of which are bad names. But who knows what kind of state of mind they are in sitting in this position." The old lady turned around slowly, paused her crutches, and said kindly, "Master Hu, instead of thinking about turning the tide with your own strength. It's better to calm down and look at the future generations, they are the pillars of the country, you and the old man should not be such an old official, teach diligently, and pass on the skills. Maybe they can be a good officer, don't you think?"
