Chapter 60: The Gate
"Yang Shen has a good eye for picking women."
It's just an ordinary sentence, and it seems to be sorry for Li Linfu's anger.
Xue Bai thought in his mind as quickly as he could, and asked in a somewhat speculative tone: "Dare to ask, could it be that Mrs. Qiu Guo brought Mingzhu into the palace and met the saint?" ”
Li Linfu let out a cold "um" and stared at Xue Bai.
He didn't say a word, but seemed to ask, "Did you do this?" ”
"Right Minister, I'm afraid this matter is not only about Yu Yimei." Xue Bai said: "When I went to the Lady of Qiuguo Mansion with Yang to join the army, I saw a lay monk named Shi Jingzhong. I did persuade Mrs. Qiu Guo to rescue Mingzhu from Shi Jingzhong......"
Xue Bai carefully recounted the experience at that banquet, especially the incident of Yang Yuyao forcing Shi Jingzhong to gamble.
Li Linfu listened very patiently, and those who didn't know were afraid that they would think that the right minister wanted to learn the art of gambling from Shi Jingzhong.
"Are you saying that the god chicken boy is present, and Shi Jingzhong can still win seven games in a row until he takes the initiative to admit defeat?"
"Not bad." Xue Bai said: "Everyone calls it a 'demon monk'. ”
Li Linfu's face was ugly.
The news he received at the first time was not complete, but he knew that the sage was very interested in seeing Mingzhu, and after asking a lot of questions, he was "angry", and the last four words given by the chamberlain were very meaningful.
Is the saint really angry? Can the chamberlain see it?
What happened in the palace in the morning, just after noon, it was reported to the right minister's house, the saint has not been sent, who are waiting for to send it?
finally grabbed the prince's neck with both hands, but he had to temporarily replace the hand of Yushitai to give the prince a chance to breathe?
"Shaft, you are so bold! You think you are speculating about your true intentions, and you framed Yang Shenjin because of personal grudges, but you don't know that you have mistaken the main thing! Do you want to die?! ”
"Right Prime Minister Mingjian, it is definitely not me who instigated Mrs. Yu Guo to bring Mingzhu to slander Yang Shenjin."
"Dare to quibble?!"
Xue Bai was in a hurry, and once again showed his youthful spirit.
"Right Prime Minister Mingjian, I'm not very close to him, but I'm not stupid, he offends people everywhere and will be killed sooner or later, why do I have to come out like this? What's more, if I refuse to serve Mrs. Qiuguo, and make her very unhappy, how can I move her? There is also Yang joining the army, he has a deeper grudge against Yang Shenjin, but he provoked me to do it, how can I be fooled like this? ”
"Argue again!"
Li Linfu was even angrier and scolded: "It's all waste!" What time is the season? All of them are watching the fire on the other side, fighting in the nest, and the East Palace ...... East Palace...... Ahem, ahem! ”
He was indeed very worried that as soon as the saint died, Li Heng would have to deal with him. This anger was finally vented.
Xue Bai was actually not only justifying, but also pointed out Yang Zhao, so that Li Linfu understood that everyone was waiting to see the joke.
No one was willing to remind and protect Yang Shenjin so that the Yushitai could continue to attack the East Palace.
Then, Xue Bai was honestly scolded.
He was the youngest and the youngest, and he didn't even have an official position, but was scolded the most. When Li Linfu is angry, these scoldings will become benefits.
There is rubbish under your hands, and you can't help your capable and obedient son-in-law-to-be?
Really.
"Alang, Shiro has arrived."
Xue Bai turned his head to look, and when he saw Li Xiu pushing open the door of the Glaive Hall and walking in, all his emotions calmed down.
After a lot of calculations, it has finally come to this point.
He also bet himself on the gambling table as a bargaining chip, and took advantage of Yang Yuyao's momentum to finally make the Right Prime Minister's Mansion compromise once.
Next, you should look at the conditions given by the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and the Lady of the Kingdom of Qiu, and then make a choice.
If Li Linfu can personally arrange a high-ranking family for him and pave a future for him, then the property he has partnered with the Lady of the Kingdom is his dowry. From then on, he will become the son-in-law of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and what he has to consider in the future is that before Li Linfu's death, he will progress to an official position no lower than that of Zhongcheng in the imperial history, so as to keep himself and the Li family.
If Yang Yuyao gave more, then she had to find a way to refuse Li Linfu.
"Grandpa is healthy."
Li Xiu saluted, the expression on his face became rich, and he said slowly: "An interesting incident happened this morning, the god chicken boy took many noble children to Daozheng Fang to make trouble, and you have to serve a few stir-fried dishes for him in your unopened restaurant, otherwise he will not give up, and this matter has alarmed the entire Qingmen." ”
Xue Bai heard this, and immediately responded: "The god chicken boy is building momentum for me, and I owe him a great favor." ”
"You're not stupid." Li Xiu chuckled lightly, dissatisfied.
It is not difficult to see that this industry will not only have a steady stream of money, but also have great connections, but Xue Bai did not pay filial piety to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, and the more the Li family and his son looked at it, the more unhappy they became.
Xue Bai is sensible, took out a deed from his sleeve and said: "I don't want to be a son-in-law, I am willing to use this as an appointment. ”
"Stupid!"
Li Linfu immediately scolded.
scolded Xue Bai because of the self-esteem of the young man, and gave Yang San's sister-in-law forty percent of the benefits with his white profits.
But on second thought, it's good to be able to make more important connections for the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Put it away, how can the Prime Minister be greedy for this little thing." Li Xiu stood up and said good words, "When you find your life experience, let your grandmother come to the door to send you to the job and then take it out." ”
"Thank you, right minister, thank you Shiro."
Xue Bai took the opportunity to take the deed back.
Li Xiu asked, "Do you have any clues about your life experience?" ”
"No clue yet."
"Ahem." Li Xiu cleared his throat and said slowly: "Last night, Yang Shen mentioned your life experience to Grandpa...... Sixteen years ago, he had an outer chamber that gave birth to a son for him......"
Xue Bai looked at Li Xiu with a complicated look.
Li Xiu laughed at herself, didn't make it up, and simply said bluntly: "If you want to marry the sister of the Ming Media, you don't have to look for it in your own life, and you will arrange it for you." From now on, you will be the son of Yang Shenjin. ”
Yang Shenjin's son?
After a moment of surprise, Xue Bai suddenly discovered that this was indeed the most likely arrangement made by the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.
Yang Shenjin is precisely one of Li Linfu's disciples and one of the most prominent people.
"The descendants of the princes of Hongnong County, the descendants of the two kings and the three kes, the family of the ministers for generations, and only such a family is worthy of the prime minister's house. Yang Shen is magnificent, more than seven feet long, graceful, and talented, it is such a beautiful man who has a son like you that is convincing. ”
Li Xiu said, looked at Xue Bai a few more times, and suddenly thought that maybe he had made a fake come true, Xue Bai was really Yang Shenjin's son?
Xue Bai only felt the danger.
"Right Xiang, Mingzhu just said bad things about Yang Shenjin in front of the sage, I don't care, but if it is involved, ......"
"Idiot."
Li Linfu didn't like to talk nonsense like Li Xiu, and said bluntly: "The saint is angry and has not spoken, and the old man has to use Yang Shenjin to protect him." ”
After saying that, he raised his hand to interrupt Xue Bai, who wanted to speak, and instructed Li Xiu: "Go and bring Yang Shenjin here." ”
Xue Bai looked sideways at Li Xiu leaving, waited for a while, and said bluntly: "Yang Shenjin is disrespectful to the right minister, befriending demon monks and angering saints, sooner or later I am afraid that there will be a big disaster." ”
Li Linfu didn't answer, closed his eyes and muttered: "If there is this day, the title of Duke of Hongnong County, the accumulation of two kings and three ke, and the power and position of Taifu Shaoqing...... Who should inherit it? ”
The atmosphere was chilling.
This is the Glaive Hall, make a plan and destroy one door.
From the very beginning, Li Linfu thought about what to do, and there was no room for refutation.
~~
Yang Shenjin was extremely reluctant.
He had a son, and he never lost a son, so how could a nobleman allow an outsider to be stuffed in and divide the property.
But it seems that someone has already persuaded him, and his reaction is not too intense, only softly refused, and his expression is faintly unexpected.
"Right Prime Minister, I'm afraid this matter is inappropriate."
Li Linfu said: "You befriended the demon monk, and you were sued by that cheap concubine in front of the saint, if it weren't for your true appearance to protect you, you would have been in a catastrophe." Recognize Xue Bai, he will be able to protect you in front of Yang San's sister-in-law, otherwise the cheap concubine will say a few more words, and it will be okay to take your life, don't spoil the big thing of the prime minister, or do you think that the prime minister is not worthy of being an in-law with you? ! ”
Yang Shenjin didn't know if he was listening, he lowered his head and thought about it, and finally glanced at Xue Bai, saluted and agreed, and named Xue Bai.
- Yang Xu.
"Xu, big words", faintly seems to say that Xue Bai boasted and climbed as a descendant of the Yang family.
After that, several people checked many details.
"You had a concubine who was pregnant for you in your early years, and then because of your wife's jealousy, she was driven back to her parents' house, and later gave birth to Yang Xu."
"When Yang Xu was eight years old, the Xue family died early, so you sent a slave surnamed Xue to bring him back, but I didn't expect this slave to be bought by your wife and ordered to kill Yang Xu."
"The old servant took your wife's heavy money, but when he was about to make a move, he relented and hid with Yang Xu."
"Until the third year of Tianbao, your original partner Wang passed away and continued the Cui family. When the old servant heard about this, he took Yang Xu back, but he didn't expect to meet a thief on the road, and Yang Xu was injured and lost his memory. ”
“……”
With a general context, Li Linfu said: "Let's prepare, arrange for the maid and the old servant to be witnesses, and the physical evidence is also indispensable, don't teach people to see the mistakes." ”
"Yes."
"The sage of Shangyuan Festival will hold a banquet in the Calyx Tower, and your father and son will recognize each other in front of the emperor, so as not to refuse to admit it from the Yang family."
Li Linfu wants to seek the Yang family's business, and he wants to prove that this retrieved son is true.
It is up to the sage to determine the most straightforward way.
~~
Imperial.
After Pei Mian returned to the Yushitai with Wang Jie, he took two official documents to Dali Temple to hand them over.
Someone greeted him on the steps, it was Du Hongchuan, the secretary of Dali Temple.
"Judge Pei is late, it's snowing heavily."
"There was an accident temporarily, so I went to the right minister's mansion with the prince."
"It's too late to deal with it today, there are still five or six days before the New Year's Festival, and I'm afraid these cases will have to drag on until after the New Year's Festival."
Pei Mian smiled and said: "Yes, Tianbao can't finish it in five years." ”
The two of them entered the official hall, and their voices turned low.
"That concubine, who arranged it?"
"Xue Bai." Pei Mian said: "A little personal grudge, the spit pot said that Xue Bai would be a soft egg if he endured it, and he gave the hardest response." ”
"Heh, there are branches outside the festival, I thought that as soon as the concubine opened her mouth, Yang Shenjin would die."
"The magic that the demon monk persuaded him to do has not been done, and more importantly, the evidence we want to give has not been stuffed yet."
"When will it be done?"
"Don't worry, it's okay if Yang Shenjin angers the saint, the longer it drags on, the better it will be for us."
"He has lost his sacred heart, and he may die at any time, in case we don't wait for us to arrange it, who has a personal grudge against him."
"Just protect him for the time being, after the Shangyuan Festival, I will be able to close this big case......"
After talking, Pei Mian pushed the door out, looked up at the sky, and sighed.
In the last month or so of Tianbao's five years, they spent it in heavy snow.
Finally, I got through it.
~~
Early in the morning, Xue Bai looked at the snowflakes in the sky and looked contemplative.
Kyauknu stood bored and asked, "What are you thinking?" ”
"Do you know what the right minister told me yesterday in the Glaive Hall?"
"I didn't go in again."
Xue Bai said: "It can be seen that the right minister trusts me more." ”
Kyaunu was stunned for a moment, and was about to refute, but he had already put on a posture and started his morning exercise, and he didn't know why.
"Do you have any plans for the first night?"
"There's probably a feast." Xue Bai said, "An important banquet. ”
"And after that? Do you want to enjoy the lanterns? ”
Xue Bai turned his head and glanced at her a little strangely.
"I'm not ......"
Knowing what to say, the slave avoided his gaze and took two steps back, slamming into the door that happened to be open.
"Ahh
Du Wulang's eyes were black, and he screamed in pain first.
"You hit the door yourself, it's none of my business...... Hey, I'm late, I have to hurry to the restaurant to decorate, and it will open tomorrow! ”
Xue Bai didn't go in person, and asked officially, "Such a sloppy?" ”
"Scribbled?"
Du Wulang had already run away, and when he heard the accusation, he turned around and shouted, "Do you know what date the banquet has been booked?" Tomorrow, the Zhang family of Shangzhu Country will be the first to feast guests with stir-fried vegetables! That is, the dark gambling house originally also sold alcohol and food, so there is no need to change it drastically, otherwise you can see it......"
As the voice faded away, he hurried out of the courtyard.
After receiving the order, the slave had to look at Xue Bai carefully, not only to prevent him from having skills to be dedicated to others, but also to prevent Mrs. Yu Guo from kidnapping the quasi-son-in-law of the Prime Minister's Mansion...... That woman's reputation is unbearable, and Chang'an City has lost another handsome son of General Qianniuwei this month, which must be her doing.
But Xue Bai didn't seem to want to go out.
"Where are you going today?"
"I didn't go anywhere before the Shangyuan Festival, I recuperated and practiced calligraphy at home. Oh, tomorrow the restaurant will open, and I will take you to stir-fry. ”
"Stir-fry?"
……
The next day, the Provincial Government Workshop.
On the small table in the kitchen room, there are fried shredded chicken with green onions, braised drunken goose, braised fan bones and so on.
Kyaunu looked back and forth for a while, only to see that the color was bright, and the sauce penetrated evenly into the meat, slightly oily, steaming, and fragrant.
This is an attraction that steamed vegetables do not have, and people can't help but swallow their saliva.
"Eat, the ingredients are fresh."
Xue Bai ate a piece of each dish, signaling that he didn't let people do anything.
Only then did the Kyauknu move his chopsticks, and he took a piece of goose meat to chew, and he was so surprised that he was surprised by the fact that he didn't hold the chopsticks.
The two ate for a while, and when they heard that Du Wulang in the courtyard wanted help, Xue Bai got up and left.
Kyauknu didn't pay much attention to it, and it wasn't until he had eaten most of the dishes that he thought that maybe he should leave a little for Xue Bai.
Xue Bai?
The name came to mind, and she quickly got up and searched everywhere.
Rushing to the front yard, he saw a luxurious car on the street that had just left, which made Kyauknu worry for a moment that he might not have been kidnapped.
Fortunately, when he turned his head, Xue Bai was standing among the guests and watching people uncover the red silk.
Seeing the Du family sisters standing beside him on the left and right, the slave couldn't help but sink his face, walked over with his hands in his hands, and squeezed Du Yan away.
Looking up again, the red silk has been revealed, revealing the mediocre name of "Fengwei Building" on the plaque.
~~
The luxurious car had left Fengwei Building, and Yang Yuyao was still thinking about Fang Cai's situation, her eyes becoming more and more complicated, as if she was nostalgic for the little warmth before the farewell.
"Brother Li can give it, can't I afford it?"
She muttered, thinking that it was time to urge the one who helped.
~~
The New Year is approaching.
In the next few days, Xue Bai really didn't go anywhere, and he finally had time to improve himself in preparation for the future.
As for his fate, he has already made all the arrangements that should be made, just waiting for the Yuan Festival......
