Chapter 61: Be a Man Again
Coming out of Shen Yishi's home, Ma Ningyuan did not choose to take a sedan chair back to the house, but took a few personal guards and wandered aimlessly.
At this time, his heart was in turmoil, his face was full of sadness, and he sighed from time to time.
On one side is the livelihood of more than 100,000 people in nine counties, and on the other side is Yan Song, who has been the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty for more than 20 years and has a monstrous power.
"Anyway, it's not me who is going to destroy the embankment, it's just that people are going to remove the surrounding arrangements, and even if it happens, it shouldn't be held accountable to me." Ma Ningyuan thought so, but unconsciously walked to the position of the Governor's Mansion of Zhejiang.
"Now that you've come here, let's go ask the teacher." Then Ma Ningyuan went straight into the Zhezhi Governor's Palace.
Since Ma Ningyuan was a student of Hu Zongxian, and he often came to visit his teacher in the past, the little guy in charge of guarding the door did not report it, but directly let him in.
"It's so late, hasn't the teacher rested yet?"
Ma Ningyuan walked outside Hu Zongxian's study, looked at the brightly lit inside, and couldn't help but ask the slave on the side.
"Not yet, Master Hu has been very busy lately, and he doesn't go to bed until late every day." The slave who was busy sweeping the ground saw Ma Ningyuan asking, and hurriedly stopped what he was doing and replied respectfully.
"Forget it, it's so late, I won't bother the teacher! I'll tell him tomorrow that I'll be here. ”
Ma Ningyuan looked at the looming busy figure in the study, as if he had made up his mind, and commanded the slave on the side.
"Yes, my lord walks slowly, and you must bring the words!" The servant in charge of sweeping the floor watched Ma Ningyuan's steps leaving, and hurriedly bowed and saluted.
……
At the same time, Yang Jinshui's home.
"Godfather, please drink tea!" Li Xuan, the river supervisor, made the tea, knelt on his knees, and handed it to Yang Jinshui very respectfully.
"Okay, okay, you get closer, let the godfather take a good look at you again." Yang Jinshui took the teacup, took a sip, and said to Li Xuan.
"Yes, yes, the child will get closer and let the godfather understand." When Li Xuan heard what Yang Jinshui said, he still maintained a kneeling posture, moving on the ground with his knees, and soon arrived in front of Yang Jinshui, his face full of respect.
"Little Xuanzi, tell me, how has your godfather treated you all these years?" Yang Jinshui carefully looked at his godson kneeling in him, and suddenly asked coldly.
"Godfather is like a reborn parent to me Li Xuan, my Li Xuan can have today's achievements, all thanks to the godfather's support, your kindness to me, I am unforgettable!"
"Even if I am a cow or a horse, I have to repay it, no matter whether my godfather asks me Li Xuan to go to Daoshan Mountain or go down to the sea of fire, I will never frown." When Li Xuan heard what Yang Jinshui said, he immediately kowtowed heavily on the ground with a solemn expression.
"Alas, those people often say that it is difficult to be an official, but no matter how difficult it is, how can we be difficult? The already crippled body, the shoulders can't be lifted or lifted, and the life of the net worth is tied to the boss's thoughts! For those of us who can get our hands on loyalty, but that loyalty is too cheap. Yang Jinshui said this, and the look in his eyes became dim.
"Godfather......" Li Xuangang wanted to comfort him, but he couldn't open his mouth, and countless words were choked in his chest.
"Do you have the right to speak out for comfort? Even people like Godfather are like this, and it is only by virtue of the power of Godfather that he has only gotten the fat shortage of river supervision, and secretly I don't know how many people are jealous, and his situation is not much better than that of Godfather. ”
"Nope! is even worse, once the godfather falls, himself, as his godson, will bear the brunt of the reckoning. When Li Xuan thought of this, he couldn't help but feel sad, hiding his face and crying.
Perhaps because of Li Xuan's infection, Yang Jinshui, who was originally gloomy, also cried, and the two mutilated eunuchs snuggled up to each other and wept bitterly.
I don't know how long I cried, Yang Jinshui took the lead in relieving himself and said softly: "Come, wipe your tears, my godfather has something to tell you to do." ”
"Godfather, just say it, I, Li Xuan, will definitely do it beautifully." Li Xuan wiped away his tears with his sleeve and responded in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Yang Jinshui coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and then said, "This matter was ordered by Elder Yan Ge, and you need to ...... it."
Soon, Yang Jinshui told Li Xuan what he needed to do, and Li Xuan, after listening to his godfather's instructions, was stunned and speechless for a long time.
Yang Jinshui looked at his godson Li Xuan's appearance, and also said: "After this incident, you will definitely die!" Is the family settled down? ”
"Godfather, it's all settled." Li Xuan couldn't see any expression on his face, but responded indifferently.
"Don't worry, as long as your godfather is still here, my family will be protected by me!"
"Do you have any unfulfilled wishes before this? Or rather, what do you want to do? Say it, godfather will be satisfied for you! Yang Jinshui picked up the teacup again, took a sip, and said loudly.
"Dry ...... Godfather, the child wants to be a real man for once! Even if it's just once. Li Xuan stood in place, I don't know how long he thought about it, his expression was in a trance, and he slowly spoke.
"Okay, godfather, I'll arrange it for you! I will call you the most famous city in Hangzhou. ”
"Many... Thanks godfather! Li Xuan said, with tears in his eyes, and the whole person couldn't cry.
……
The Forbidden City, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.
Jiajing has been wanting to enter it again to see if he can comprehend a few more spells after absorbing purple qi and entering that state of mystery and mystery, and after comprehending the prayer for rain, he has been thinking so in his heart to see if he can comprehend a few more spells, but he is even more unable to enter the state, and the whole person is becoming more and more impatient, even if he repeatedly recites the mantra to calm his mind, it will not help.
Jiajing slowly opened his eyes, stopped cultivating, and thought back to his previous actions, and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that I am still too impatient, the matter of cultivation pays attention to a cause and effect, and you can't be in a hurry, if you continue like this, I am afraid that it will endanger your body." ”
With a clear thought in his heart, Jiajing's whole person was also a lot more relaxed, and he let out a breath of turbidity.
Immediately afterwards, Jiajing called Lu Fang and asked softly, "What, are they still making trouble?" ”
Hearing that the emperor asked him questions, Lu Fang hurriedly responded respectfully: "Your Majesty, at present, the two sides have stopped attacking each other, and the Inspectorate has not received as many letters as before, only a few sporadic letters, all of which are sent from remote areas. ”
"Hmph, count them acquaintances! If they continue to make trouble like this, I will not be able to spare them if they delay the affairs of the imperial court. After listening to Lu Fang's report, Jiajing said in a deep voice.
"Oh, yes! Did Jin Yiwei verify the incriminating evidence exposed by their mutual impeachment this time? Jiajing looked at Lu Fang calmly and said.
"Your Majesty, as far as the slave maid knows, Jinyiwei has already verified the evidence of the crime."
"Okay, as for those officials who have problems, they will all be dealt with according to my Ming law! The sentence of the sentence, the raid of the house. Jiajing rubbed the dragon head carved on the dragon chair with his hand, and commanded lightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty! Then the slave and maid commanded it. ”
"Hmm."
