Chapter 68: The Three Beauties of the Capital
Emperor Jiang Chen rescued him, and after investigation, the matter was indeed done by the prince, although Jiang Chen had no real evidence, but he also grounded the prince, and the matter was over.
After Jiang Chen was rescued, he still went his own way, did not go to court for a day, and continued to alchemy in the palace.
In the imperial study, a handsome man in yellow robe was talking with General Wei De, this person was Jiang Hong, the sixth prince of the Great Liang Kingdom!
"Father-in-law Wei, this crisis in the palace is still thanks to you...... The father ignores the government and the power falls, and only the Qing is the pillar of the court! Jiang Hong said while reviewing the folds.
After the crown prince was grounded, Emperor Jiang Chen let the six princes enter the palace and reviewed the folds on his behalf, not that he wanted to make the six princes the princes, but simply to find a reliable person, but this also meant that the status of the six princes had improved.
"The minister does not dare to take credit, Your Majesty is blessed with all the heavens, and he will definitely turn evil into good fortune." Wei De has served the emperor for many years, and his speech is very tactful, "When the minister broke the jade ring by mistake, he would have been executed, if it wasn't for His Royal Highness's rescue, the old slave would have been gone long ago......"
"Don't talk about that...... Look at this excerpt! Jiang Hong handed the fold to Wei De.
Wei De took a look, his face changed, this was actually a letter of impeachment against him, which was the matter of Tang Xuan killing Pang Yunfeng's family in a fit of anger.
Such a big event, even if more than a year has passed, when Tang Xuan returns, it will inevitably be mentioned by someone with a heart.
"Your Highness, the minister is guilty!" Wei De knelt on the ground, "This matter is instructed by the minister, and the matter of saving him is also operated by the minister." β
"Get up, I don't blame you...... It's just a little strange that you've always been meticulous, why did you make your subordinates do such a bold thing! Jiang Hong was a little puzzled.
Wei De sighed and said: "The minister has not been able to see His Majesty at that time, so he knows that something has happened in the palace, and this secretary of the Ministry of Rites is the prince's person, and the minister must do something to give them a warning to these rebellious people...... This Pang family father and son did a lot of evil in the capital and ruined His Majesty's reputation, so the minister sent a small official to do it. β
"You're doing the right thing...... After the fall of the crown prince, my father sent someone to raid the Pang Mansion, and he would confiscate four million taels of silver, just under my nose, a mere Ministry of Rites Shangshu dared to be so arrogant! A hint of anger appeared on Jiang Hong's face, "You did the right thing, the situation in Jin Wuwei is complicated, your rights are almost hollowed out, and it is difficult for you to operate this matter." β
"As long as you can do things for Your Highness, a little grievance is nothing...... His Royal Highness has decreed that my Wei family will be rewarded, and the ministers are grateful. β
"Jin Wuwei originally guarded the safety of his father, but in the past few years, demons have been rampant, and he had to order him to kill demons and eliminate demons, among which there are many masters, which is extremely important...... You have to hurry up and sit down as a general. Jiang Hong leaned forward and lowered his voice, "Tang Xuan, this kid is clever and his strength is not bad, you can cultivate it as a help...... Send him to perform some tasks, and if he has merit, you can report it and immediately improve it."
"Yes!"
β¦β¦
There was a drizzle in the sky, and the capital was not far from the sea in the east, and there were tall mountains in the north, so the rain was very frequent.
Tang Xuan clasped his hands, stood in the corridor on the second floor and looked down, the street was shrouded in a faint mist, and an oil-paper umbrella floated under his feet, as if he had returned to the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
The vendors were still shouting and shouting, trying to sell more on this rainy day.
Between the houses, some refugees took shelter from the rain and looked very pitiful.
"There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy!" Tang Xuan's face was unbearable, looking at the suffering refugees below, his heart was very uncomfortable.
He is not Jing Zhaoyin, and he can't help them much, every time he makes a fortune, he only leaves some to make ends meet, and the rest is all distributed to the refugees, but his strength alone is too weak, and these refugees seem to be endless.
I have been defending this corrupt court, I don't know if it's right or wrong, but I can be sure that at least it's better than letting the Red Blood Sect succeed.
"Good ambition...... No wonder the Admiral praised you. Tang Xuan's friend Yu Bin walked over and also glanced at the refugees, "But these guys can't be saved, untouchables who have no means of survival don't deserve to live." β
"All men are created equal, there is no high or low...... Everyone has the right to live, and I've been running around for a bite to eat! Now that I have a half-time job, I shouldn't forget my roots, and I should do my best to help as much as I can. "Tang Xuan has a good heart and can't see others suffering.
Yu Bin stretched out his hand and put it on Tang Xuan's shoulder, "My lord, this is the Teaching Workshop Division, a place to have fun, and you will set up the archway of chastity tomorrow...... Let's go and have some fun first. β
Tang Xuan pursed his lips and said, "I have been to the land of fireworks a lot, and that's it, I have also been to Shuyi Pavilion a few times, so that's it!" β
Tang Xuan is very restrained about himself, when he comes to this land of fireworks, he usually just listens to music, watches dances, plays chess, plays some vegetarian food, and it is not impossible to play meat, but ...... has to add money, Tang Xuan is reluctant!
"Brother, you are lonely and unheard, this sect is not as good as the outside, most of the girls here are some beautiful girls, not those women outside can compare! Not to mention piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, blowing, playing and singing, all of them are not bad...... You also know that women with high cultivation are not only young and beautiful, but also slender and flexible, and you will be fascinated after trying it. "This Yu Bin is a veteran of Fengyue Field, and he really knows a lot.
"Is it that good?" After Tang Xuan heard this, he thought carefully and started to divide up.
The women he has been in contact with have more or less some problems, Liu Yueling who met at the beginning is cold and wooden, and she is relatively boring, Bai Yuzhi has a lot of eyes, and in the hostile forces, Cheng Xiyao looks very good, and her personality is good, but unfortunately she is a little too powerful.
And these people are all fighting in the rivers and lakes, and they are a little heroic, and none of them are as gentle and virtuous as everyone's ladies.
"In the capital, there are three beauties, can you know about it?" While walking inside, Yu Bin gave Tang Xuan a lesson.
Jin Wuwei is living a life of licking blood from the knife edge, and he should know how to enjoy himself in his spare time, otherwise he may lose his life at some point, so Jin Wuwei's group of people are very open, and they are willing to come here to consume, and today is Yu Bin's treat.
"I don't know much, I only know that Cheng Xiyao is very famous in the capital, even now...... Now that the filial piety period is kept, there are also many sons who pursue it. Tang Xuan heard a little, as if Cheng Xiyao was one of the three beauties.
"One of them is Pang Hua's concubine Ding Meilan, when Pang Hua was alive, he was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the Jiaofang Department was under his jurisdiction. The second is Chu Yueping, the head of the teaching department, this Chu Yueping is here now! Don't look at Cheng Xiyao's excellent appearance, she can only rank third. β
As he spoke, the two came to the hall, where the girls on the stage were wearing light gauzes, with a clear view of beauty, and were dancing, which was really much better than the beauties in other places.
This place is very large, and there are many more projects than imagined, basically there are projects in a certain place in the south, and there are a lot of noble sons who come here, so if you want to see the Oiran, I'm afraid it's not so easy.
"Cheng Xiyao is so beautiful and refined, she actually ranks third...... Could it be that this Chu Yueping can win against Mrs. Cheng? Tang Xuan finally became interested.
"The three beauties have their own characteristics, Ding Meilan is elegant, charming and knowledgeable, and she blows well, Cheng Xiyao is gentle and beautiful, fresh and refined, and this Chu Yueping is beautiful and moving, weak and boneless, all of them are the best among women." Yu Bin's words are a little disrespectful to women, but this feudal society is male superiority and female inferiority.
Originally, the Teaching Workshop Division was only a place for the entertainment of the royal family and dignitaries, mainly for choreographing songs and dances, studying music, and the royal family had some sacrifices or red and white ceremonies, all of which were indispensable to the Teaching Workshop Division.
But then something changed, and this teaching department began to serve the outside world, which is no different from the Qinglou, as long as you can afford the silver, it is more expensive than playing outside.
"I'm a little interested, I wonder if I can see it?" Tang Xuan didn't want to do anything, but since he came, he always felt a little lost when he didn't see each other and left.
I heard that seeing the Oiran cost two hundred taels on one side, if you glance at it, it is equivalent to picking up two hundred taels of silver on the street, and there are not many such opportunities.
The two perverts discussed for a moment, and then went to the sect to find the deputy envoy.
Tang Jiannai, the deputy envoy of the Jiaofang Division, is a fourth-grade official, and the status of civil officials under the rule of the Great Liang State is slightly higher than that of military attachΓ©s, so the status of this deputy envoy is much higher than that of Tang Xuan, and it took some trouble to meet this deputy envoy.
"Captain Kongowei...... A mere sesame mung bean-sized yacha, also want to see the Oiran of the Teaching Workshop? Tang gradually crossed Erlang's legs and drank tea.
"My lord, this Chu girl is related to a case, please make it convenient." Yu Bin panicked and wanted to save some silver taels.
Tang gradually sneered, put down the tea, and said: "The people from Jingzhao Yin Mansion also said the same, and the people from the Criminal Department also said the same, when did you Jin Wuwei also learn this set...... To tell you the truth, although this is a place to have fun, there are rules, if you want to handle a case, please take your warrant from General Jin Wuwei, you can see whoever you want! β
Tang Gradual's official position is not high, but even those court officials don't pay attention to it, most of these officials are somewhat related, and everyone has their own network that has been operating for many years.
"Your Excellency!" Yu Bin came up and wanted to fight for the opportunity.
Tang gradually slapped the table and said sharply: "What kind of system, if you have words to talk in person, you must be submissive." β
Yu Bin grinned and whispered: "I'm afraid you don't know who this is, this is Tang Xuan, the captain of Jinwuwei, who has the same surname as adults, and it is convenient for adults." β
"Tang Xuan? I haven't heard of ......" As soon as the words fell, Tang's face gradually changed, and he burst into white sweat, and asked in a trembling voice: "Yes...... Is that Tang Xuan? β
A year ago, there was a ruthless man who went directly to the door to seek revenge because of a quarrel on the street, and hacked to death the family of the Ministry of Rites.
I heard that this guy escaped from prison after only a few days in prison, and I also heard that this guy returned to Jin Wuwei and was promoted...... This person's name is Tang Xuan.
Fights between ordinary officials are generally impeachment and framing each other, and the worst thing is assassination, and it does not harm the family.
But this person didn't play cards according to common sense at all, and in a few words, he raised a knife to destroy people......
"It turned out to be Lord Tang, no wonder I felt heroic as soon as I entered the door! To tell you the truth, this Chu girl is in the room, but you came a little early, maybe you are resting. Tang gradually stood up immediately, smiling all over his face.
"Then I'll wait."
"No...... If she's sleeping, just wake her up, and I'll show you the way! Tang gradually didn't say a word, and directly took Tang Xuan to Chu Yueping's boudoir.
"So, it's hard work!" Tang Xuan's head was black, it turned out that his reputation was already so stinky, I was afraid that he could stop the children from crying at night.
