Fu Hing Fang.

Yuzhen Temple is a Taoist temple built by Princess Yuzhen after cultivating, and most of the female crowns who practice here are the daughters of the clan and the powerful.

In the early morning, there were only three Liao Liao in the law hall.

Kyauknu sat cross-legged with his legs sore, and peeked at it, Li Tengkong was still motionless; Mian'er had fallen asleep on the floor, her small breasts rising and falling slightly, and she slept soundly.

She stood up lightly, walked out of the law hall, and moved her hands and feet in the sun, thinking that such a dull day would have to live for a lifetime.

"Can you vacate the air? There are guest visits. ”

Finally heard this sound again, Kyauknu's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly replied, asking Li Tengkong to come out, she rubbed her face, restored the cold expression that no one was close to, and guarded behind Li Tengkong.

Sure enough, it was the little lady of the Yan family who came, and every time she came, she brought a lot of things, delicious and fun.

Texts, scrolls, books, musical instruments, shuttlecocks, spinning tops...... There were also two boxes of pastries.

"Sister Kyauknu, this is for you. Fufutang's deer cake bun, I tasted it delicious, but A-Niang didn't let me eat more. ”

Jiaonu waited for Li Tengkong to nod before taking it, and he didn't thank him, but he liked this little lady of the Yan family a little bit in his heart.

"Go down and eat, and take the shuttlecock to play." Li Tengkong had already picked up a piece of paper and looked at it, "I'm going to see the Yan family's sister." ”

……

I went to the small courtyard to eat pastries, bask in the sun, watch Mian'er kick the shuttlecock for a while, and the Jiaonu also felt sleepy, but saw two female crowns running by, and faintly said, "Is it really the Langjun before?" ”

As soon as the slave's ears pricked up, he immediately became vigilant.

She got up and followed the two female crowns in the direction of the guest hall, and from a distance, she saw Seventeen Niang handing a prescription to Xue Bai.

It can be seen that Seventeen Niang is a little happy, she forgot to bring the dust, her hands behind her back, and there is a movement of pinching her fingers.

As for the dog man, he still has the attitude of being polite on the surface, but in fact he has no intention of marrying Seventeen Niang...... I saw that the slave was furious.

She turned around and found a courtyard wall and climbed out, until she waited at the side door.

~~

"Then I'll grab the medicine."

"Okay."

Li Tengkong pursed his lips, put on the attitude of a famous doctor who hangs a pot to help the world, and seeing that Xue Bai was leaving, he suddenly said: "By the way, you wrote "A Chinese Ghost Story", I ...... Looked. ”

She actually hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't help but want to tell him.

Xue Bai seemed to be surprised for a moment when he saw her eyes, then nodded and turned out of the Jade True Temple.

When I went out, I saw a girl standing outside the door with her arms crossed and stepping on a figure-eight step, with a sinister face.

"The thief is so daring, he dares to provoke Seventeen Niang."

This shout was loud, but the Jiaonu frightened others, but Xue Bai couldn't scare it.

Xue Bai then pointed to the corner of his mouth and said, "Wipe it." ”

Kyauuknu was furious and scolded: "I told you that Yuzhenguan is surrounded by guards from the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, let Ah Lang know that you are coming, and skin you alive......"

Before she could speak, Xue Bai had already suppressed her momentum with a word.

"Then you might as well ask your brother Nu, can you think about acting like this?"

When the slave heard the word "brother", his eyes widened, and he forgot to refute.

Xue Bai turned around and left, he was recently learning Gaolishi's Yangmou of "pushing the boat down the river", and he was not afraid of people knowing his whereabouts.

~~

Right Prime Minister's House.

Li Linfu glanced at the ranking of the spring re-examination that Wang Ji had drawn up in advance, and approved the word "may".

This matter is the same as in previous years, it is enough to be able to convince the public, anyway, he only has the qualifications to be an official, and he is not really given an official position.

He was about to take care of other official business, but when he closed his eyes, he thought of the dream he had not long ago.

In the dream, the man who resembled Pei Kuan almost took away his body, causing him great fear.

Signaling the female envoy around him to send the list out, Li Linfu said again: "Ask Wang Jie, how is the matter of promoting him to the imperial historian?" ”

"Whoa."

"Aaron." Another female envoy walked across the sandalwood floor wearing only Luo socks, quietly walked around the screen, and said: "Yuzhenguan came to report, Xue Bai went to see Seventeen Niang." ”

Li Linfu only thought of Xue Bai in his busy schedule at this time, and ordered: "Summoning Xi Yingying to see him, and then go to the street patrol envoy to check the news, and find out what Xue Bai has been doing recently." ”

"Whoa."

"By the way, what about Fourteen Niang, have you found it?"

"Nope."

"Let Shiro go to the Du family to take people back, but don't make a big fuss......"

After a while, information about Xue Bai's whereabouts arrived.

This is not difficult to check, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion has already told the military candidates everywhere in Chang'an to pay attention to it, and it can be retrieved when needed, which is quite a waste of paper.

After a while, Da Xi Yingying also arrived, bowed down in the hall and answered.

"Xue Bai rarely comes to Fengwei Building, but I only heard that he has been studying hard recently. By the way, during the Cold Food Festival, the Xue and Du families went out of the city to worship and sweep, and the slave family inquired about some servants, and they went to the Qingxu Courtyard; On the Qingming Festival, Xue Bai repaired the ancestral tomb of the Xue family, went to the Yang Mansion of Shangzhu Kingdom, and then lived in the Lady of the Kingdom of Qiu......"

What she said was consistent with the news Li Linfu received.

"Keep checking, don't let them find out that you are from the Right Prime Minister's Mansion."

"The slave family will do their best."

"Is there any information about Han Yu?"

"The slave family is useless, there are no clues."

"Stand down."

Li Linfu sat there, shaving the back of his hand with his thick beard, and muttered, "Qingxu Courtyard, Pei Kuan, Yang Chen, Yan Yan Fa...... Sure enough, there was a layout......"

His eyes rolled, and suddenly he remembered something, and took out a small scroll from the shelf and opened it.

On the scroll, Yang Shenjin's name was crossed out with a Dan pen and an ink pen, and Li Shizhi's name was only crossed with an ink pen, and what was written below was "Pei Kuan".

"Guessed even that? Layout ahead of time? ”

Li Linfu pondered for so far, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he shouted: "Summoning Wang Ji and Luo Xizao to the Glaive Hall, quick!" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone in the hall shuddered, and they all knew that the right minister was going to get rid of another political enemy.

~~

Goshidai.

In the official hall, Pei Kuan was staring at a dossier with vigilance.

This was personally sent by Wang Ji today.

Taking this opportunity, Pei Kuan also tested Wang Jie's attitude towards the re-examination list, and found that if he wanted to fulfill Xue Bai's request to make all three of them rank first, it was almost a declaration of war with Wang Jie, but I was afraid that the price would not be small.

He listened to his son's analysis of the pros and cons of the salt law, and his attitude became hesitant again, so he secretly asked Donggong, "I heard that my brother wants to get rid of me?" ”

The answer was "Don't worry, don't be provoked".

So Pei Kuan had luck in his heart, and considered whether Xue Bai was deceiving him.

He has never been a decisive person, otherwise he would not have been summoned to the court as a false post with an edict.

At this time, what made him even more embarrassed was the file in his hand.

The content of the file is very simple, a Lang general named Cao Jian broke into a private house drunk, raped a woman, and killed a family of four, and the evidence is conclusive.

And on the other side of Pei Kuan's table, there was a box filled with five hundred taels of gold, which Pei Kuan's clansman Pei Dunfu put here while he was not paying attention.

Pei Dun was reinstated as Henan Yin, and Cao Jian was his subordinate.

Pei Kuan thought about it, wrote the judgment on the file, and finally dropped the word "chop", recruited people, and reported the file.

He personally carried the box of gold to Pei Dunfu's residence.

Pei Dunfu was not in the house, but his wife knew Pei Kuan, the brother, and told her husband the details when he went out.

"It was Luo Yushi who suddenly came to the door and invited Lang Jun to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Pei Kuan had a bad premonition, and when he heard this, he was shocked, and the heavy wooden box in his hand fell to the ground.

"Bang."

The wooden box shattered, and dazzling gold ingots smashed all over the ground.

It is like foreshadowing the fate of the illustrious family of the Pei family.

……

Pei Zhen hurried back home.

He was suddenly recalled from Jingzhao Mansion, and as soon as he entered the hall, he saw Pei Kuan sitting there with a bloodless face.

"Grandpa, what's wrong?"

"Brother Nu is going to do it." Pei Kuanqiang calmed down, recounted today's events, and said: "Cao Jian's case, I must not follow selfishness. But what did Gonu mean by bringing Pei Dunfu to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion? Remove me by his hand. ”

"In Pei Dunfu's hands, is there any evidence of Grandpa's guilt?"

"Not incriminating evidence." Pei Kuan shook his head, "I have a favorite general under my command in Fan Yang, named Shi Siming, he once served as a mutual market Yalang, where the great plundering of Xi people, the Khitan descendants, women and children were all betrayed by him, the generals shared the profits, and Pei Dunfu also had a percent." ”

"This is a common occurrence in the army. On the contrary, Pei Dunfu did more excessively in Henan, I heard that he was defeated by Haikou, but instead killed the good and risked the merits, pretending to be a big victory, I had already persuaded Grandpa to clear up with him. ”

Pei Kuan said: "But he has something in his hand that can make the saint suspicious of me." ”

"What?"

"I have a letter to him complaining about Gonu."

"Is Grandpa complaining about the slave, or is it a saint?"

Pei Kuan frowned, and he couldn't say who he complained about at that time.

Seeing this, Pei Zhen's face turned pale with horror.

The father and son were stunned for a long time, and Pei Zhen asked, "Grandpa, has Xue Bai come to you these days?" ”

"Nope. Listening to what you said that day, I also felt that the matter of salt was difficult to handle, presumably they wanted to make conditions, but they did not wait for him to come. ”

Pei Zhen frowned and thought about it, and muttered, "No, why did Brother Nu find Pei Dunfu so quickly?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Grandpa accepted bribes or enforced the law impartially, he should have waited for the results to come out, why was he so uncomposed?"

"Why?"

"Could it be...... Qingxu Beiye has a lot of mouths, and the brother knows that Xue Bai has been in contact with Grandpa, is he in a hurry? ”

"How so?"

Pei Zhen paced a few steps and muttered: "The six Caos of Jingzhao Mansion, Yifa Cao Jiwen is the most powerful, but I heard a while ago that Jiwen was demoted because of Xue Bai, and at that time I only thought that Xue Bai was the head of Mrs. Qiuguo, but now it seems that Brother Nu is very jealous of him...... It should be said that the brother slave was very jealous of Yang Chen's meddling in taxes and taking away his position. ”

Pei Kuan said: "Of course the brother slave is afraid, if he loses his phase, and see how many enemies can't wait to pounce." ”

"Grandpa, so far, I will work with Yang Yan to promote the salt method." Pei Zhen finally made up his mind, and said loudly: "If you want to do it, Grandpa will take the place of the brother slave, rectify the rule of officials, turn chaotic government into good government, and become a generation of famous ministers." ”

"But?"

"Yes!"

Pei Kuan stabilized his mind and finally had an attitude of recklessness.

In this way, he thought about it carefully, and then he took the lead in handing over the hidden salt tax and the rent of the evasion households, and encouraged the Hedong clan to make concessions in their interests, and the sage used himself as the prime minister on behalf of Li Linfu, which was the best result.

The important thing is not the little money on the salt tax, but the ability to stabilize the social situation.

This is the greatest significance of his Fan Yang Festival envoy to enter the court, the sage beat him, forced him to compromise, and used him to win over Hedong.

"There is a master behind Xue Bai......"

~~

It was nearly evening.

Xue Bai took a large bag of medicinal herbs from the horse's back and walked into the Jade True Temple on his back.

Li Tengkong came out of the Dan furnace room, stood on the steps and looked at him, and couldn't help laughing.

"Huh?"

"Laugh at your dignified Xue Langjun, humming and moving medicine like this."

"Because you Jade Zhenguan won't let my two guards in."

"I mean...... Can others do the same to you? ”

"I'm not a big man, so it's not hard to call."

"That's it." Li Tengkong thought for a while, "Go and pour me a glass of water." ”

After she finished speaking, she saw Xue Baizhen go to get the kettle on the stove, and said busily: "Hey, I'm joking with you, you don't have to pour it." ”

"Dispensing medicine?"

"I divided what the Yan family's sister wants to drink today, and you can get the rest tomorrow."

Li Tengkong tried to speak very naturally, looking like an old doctor, and grabbed a few medicinal materials to weigh.

Xue Bai stood aside and chatted: "For a while, I have a feud with Dang Chaoyou, and then I am afraid that it will reach the point where the fish will die and the net will be broken." ”

The fingers that were wrapping the herbs stopped unconsciously.

"Prime Minister Juro is my friend, and he must be in trouble when the time comes." Xue Bai said: "What I want to do, but I won't stop because of him, I regret it." ”

Li Tengkong asked, "Then what should you do with this friend?" ”

"She will inevitably feel guilty because of this, so it is not appropriate for her to associate with me anymore, she should do what she wants to do, and seek peace of mind."

"What about you? Can you feel sorry for her? ”

"My enmity with the right minister is a public enmity, and it does not involve his family."

"That'...... If you are also framed by the right minister, presumably Li Shilang will save you out of friendship, right? ”

"I'm afraid I can't afford this friendship."

"She must not have wanted you to bear it, have you ever thought that this is also a practice for her to seek peace?"

Xue Bai was silent, and when he looked at the woman in front of him again, he was a little surprised.

He wanted to enlighten her and push her away tactfully.

Unexpectedly, she really had a Dao heart.

"Perhaps, Li Shilang made friends with you not because he wanted you to be. She wanted to forget who she was and find out who she was. Blessings have been enjoyed, sins have been created, and debts should be paid, and she is willing to accumulate good practice all her life. But people should always have their own occasional joy, their own joy, their own joy, even for a moment, so as to live up to the birth and nourishment of heaven and earth, the so-called 'Tao Law is natural', isn't it? ”

Li Tengkong said this, raised his eyes, and looked directly into Xue Bai's eyes.

She no longer hides her joy and joy, and at the same time, her eyes are clear, and she knows what she wants.

"Therefore, Xue Langjun doesn't have to be burdened, you are friends with Li Shilang, and you are helping her practice."

"Taught."

The more he faced such a pure and quiet look, Xue Bai was not very good at speaking.

After staring at each other for a few breaths, Li Tengkong turned his back.

Xue Bai lifted the two packs of medicine and said goodbye.

"That'...... Are you going to dispense medicine tomorrow? Li Tengkong asked, his tone trembled slightly, and then he said lightly: "I can't finish it alone." ”

"Okay."

Xue Bai hurriedly responded and left.

He actually didn't believe that if he had been in contact with Li Tengkong for a long time and lived and died with Li Linfu, she would have no pain at that time.

Of course, normally speaking, he couldn't defeat Li Linfu at all, after all, she was still ready to save him......
