121 Chapter 121
Fengyuelou died a prostitute, died in the ecstasy mound and the beauty account, but it can also be called a sentence of peony flowers to die, and it is also romantic to be a ghost.
The cause of death is different, and the officials of Dali Temple have been guarding in front of Fengyue Tower every day for seven consecutive days, trying to catch the murderer, and finally secretly escorted back to the torture room for a Hanlin bachelor.
A murder case involved many chic and happy officials in the Fengyue Building, Dali Temple had no right to deal with it privately, reported to the emperor, and finally transferred to the Imperial History Tower.
Thirty people have to abolish half their lives, and now there are many embassies in Beijing, and it is impossible for officials to drag their bodies and bad faces every day.
This punishment is somewhat heavy, after all, Fengyue Tower has been open for so many years, and it is famous, and it is the richest territory in Yujing City, and even if people die, they will not stop working, in fact, there is a tacit reason among hundreds of officials:
The Son of Heaven will go there to have fun.
If you can't go up, you must go down. This is the most obvious truth, but no one dares to say it.
Emperor Renshou's face was gloomy for several days, and he had a deep prejudice against Lord Shaoqing, who turned this matter to the surface.
Before the murderer could find guilt, he blamed him for his incompetence, and together with the prostitute officials, he was fined one year and given another ten lashes.
When Rong Tang heard the news, everyone was stunned in the courtyard, unable to say a word, and Su Huaijing's face had a gloomy expression that he wanted to kill for the first time in a long time.
The sticks of Dali Temple, with thorns on the roots, are soaked in salt water, and ten sticks go down, and the able-bodied people have to lie in bed for half a month, but Mu Jingxu only got three days of sick leave.
Su Huaijing asked: "What does Tang Tang think of Dayu now?" ”
"Not good." Rong Tang said, he paused, and said, "It's not good." ”
Throughout the ages, there must be a law in the decline of prosperous times.
Looking at the vast territory and strong people, in fact, the rulers are closed and stubborn, and they close their eyes and ears; Those who are officials are muddy all day long, filling their own pockets; For the soldiers, the morale is low, greedy for life and afraid of death......
And the cost of the emperor's palace will cost one million taels of silver, and the people's fat and ointment will all be used for pleasure and greed.
If it continues like this, it will not take ten years, and Dayu will die.
Even if there is no Su Huaijing in the original story line, it will be difficult for Sheng Chengli to save this prosperous and magnificent world.
Su Huaijing spoke: "My father once said that he can only be a king who keeps the country, and if he does not let the country fall in his own hands, he will not be ashamed of his ancestors and ancestors. ”
At that time, Wen Yousheng Fuze, Wu Youwei Zhun, the Son of Heaven will be Mingtai, and the young people will move forward with novel ideas, and Dayu may have a good future.
And now, the country that the first emperor has guarded for 25 years, and if you look closely, the roots have begun to rot.
Su Huaijing lowered his eyes and looked at the stars in the autumn night in the distance, and he didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't tell Rong Tang what he had planned.
Rong Tang didn't urge or inquire, and quietly accompanied him with the system who didn't know where he was staying in the courtyard.
After a long time, Su Huaijing smiled, the gloom in his eyes faded, and he asked softly, "Are you going to see my brother?" ”
Rong Tang nodded without thinking: "Okay." ”
-
Mu Jingxu has his own house in Beijing, located in the south of the city, with Yong
Ann Lane is not far away (),
? [()]?『 Come[]%See the latest chapters%Full chapters'(),
The last purple-red clouds on the horizon disappeared into the night.
There was already a carriage parked at the door, and compared with the Ning Xuan Palace, the degree of wealth was not far behind.
Mu Shaoqing's house was deserted and simple, but there were only a few small people, Rong Tang stepped into the house, and when he looked closely, most of the people in the courtyard were people brought by Ke Hongxue, and they were in a hurry.
He asked Su Huaijing: "Do they live together?" ”
Su Huaijing's eyebrows raised slightly, he couldn't see what his emotions were, he just led Rong Tang to the courtyard.
The house is lit with lights, the furnishings are very simple, but they are low-key luxury, no matter how you look at it, you can't afford it from Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
The two stepped into the door and bumped into Ke Hongxue, who happened to come out to change the water.
The latter paused slightly, and then naturally laughed: "Senior brother just fell asleep, I knew you were coming, I should have told him to wait a little longer." ”
Rong Tang lowered his eyes and looked away.
The water in the copper basin was dyed pale red, and the soaked towels were mottled with blood and different shades, indicating that they had been changed many times.
Su Huaijing's face became gloomy almost instantly, and he unconsciously increased the force when he held Rong Tang's hand.
Loosen up quickly, but the overflowing emotions couldn't be hidden, he slowed down and asked, "There is a vacant room in the house, Tang Tang and I live here tonight." ”
"One or two?" Ke Hongxue asked in a suppressed voice, afraid of waking up someone who had finally fallen asleep.
Su Huaijing: "Two rooms." ”
Ke Hongxue and Rong Tang were a little surprised for a while, they each glanced at him, and then withdrew their gaze.
Young Master Ke ordered someone to clean the room, and Su Huaijing stood at the door and looked at it for a while, then left in front of Mu Jingxu's door.
Rong Tang asked him, "Why don't you go in and have a look?" ”
"Easy to wake up." Su Huaijing's voice was very soft, and there was a trace of panic and fear that he didn't even notice.
Rong Tang squeezed his hand and accompanied him silently.
It's pale to say anything, and it's a bit of nothing to do with anything.
Mu Jingxu's body will faint when he is cold, and it will be painful when he is cold in the dungeon
, like Rong Tang, a sick body that can't withstand a little rain and wind.
Even in the first two lives, he died earlier than Rong Tang.
And at that time, there was no such unjustified disaster that was inexplicably punished by the Son of Heaven.
Because he witnessed the ending, Rong Tang was even more panicked than Su Huaijing.
Tossing and turning at night and unable to sleep, he put on his clothes and got up, and when he saw that it was dark in Su Huaijing's room, he didn't bother, and slowly paced to Mu Jingxu's door.
saw Ke Hongxue standing in the courtyard, still sassy in red, but there was a bit of dark red at the placket that could not be seen clearly in the night.
Rong Tang lowered his head and saw that the sleeves of Young Master Ke's clothes hanging by his side trembled slightly, his fingers clenched into fists, and from time to time a little shadow would drill out because he couldn't control it.
He stood like a pine and a cypress, but he was so frightened that he would fall down as if the wind blew.
Rong Tang walked in front of him, Ke Hongxue came back to his senses, blinked his dry eyes, and habitually drew a smile after seeing the person who came: "You and Xiaosu are really interesting, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, one or two come to do this night attack, and you are not afraid of spreading the reputation of the bad reputation?" ”
Rong Tang was slightly stunned, and subconsciously looked back, and the faint light penetrated through the window
() There was no sound in the whole courtyard, and even the cicadas and insects that should be there on an autumn night disappeared.
Ke Hongxue saw that he was puzzled: "I got drugged and drove away, I was afraid of making a noise to my senior brother." ”
He didn't say who gave the drug, and Rong Tang didn't ask much, Ke Hongxue and Su Huaijing were both possible.
Rong Tang whispered, "Go back and sleep for a while." ”
Ke Hongxue shook her head: "No, I'm on leave, I don't have to lecture in the next few days, but Su Huaijing will go to the court tomorrow, and I'll replace him in a while." ”
Rong Tang: "How long have you not slept?" ”
Ke Hongxue: "It doesn't matter. ”
Rong Tang: "I'll alternate with Huaijing to guard." ”
Ke Hongxue smiled at once: "Forget it, Lord Shizi, if there is one more patient, you are not afraid that your family Langjun will find a way to kill the emperor tomorrow?" ”
Rong Tang frowned, and wanted to persuade again, but Ke Hongxue said: "Go back, he deliberately asked for two rooms because he was afraid that you would worry, and the night was heavy, so be careful of catching a cold." ”
Rong Tang felt an indescribable deep sense of powerlessness for a moment.
It's not that there are no servants in Mu Mansion, and it's not that doctors and boys can't be taken care of, it's just that for them, outsiders are always not as good as themselves, and they have to stare at Mu Jingxu without blinking to open their eyes, drink medicine, and fall asleep before they can feel at ease.
In this courtyard, there was never more than one patient.
Rong Tang frowned, and asked one more question before leaving: "How did the suspect in Fengyue Tower deal with it?" ”
"It's just Dongshan's fine work, half of the skin is fed to the dogs." Ke Hongxue said coldly.
Rong Tang was slightly stunned, a little surprised.
Mu Jingxu was beaten with a stick in the morning, and now the murderer was punished tonight, and the speed of the efficiency is staggering.
Xu is expression on his face was too obvious, Ke Hongxue smiled lightly, and bent his eyes to tease him: "Does the prince think that I am just a young master with two sleeves and no political affairs in the court?" ”
It's just that he is afraid that the mission will come to Beijing, and it is not good to convict him directly, and the senior brother is very good at abiding by the rules of death.
wanted to take revenge, but also worried that the two countries would fight each other, and the people on the border would suffer, and the murderer was clearly found, but he had to wait for the emperor's so-called Chrysostom to dare to be punished.
As a result, he waited for a punishment.
Ke Hongxue narrowed her eyes, and a little gloomy and ruthless appeared between her eyebrows: "Half of the skin is peeled off, the person can still live, once he wears a prison uniform, who knows if he has been tortured, it's just a pity ......"
He stopped as he spoke, smiled again and asked Rong Tang to return to the courtyard, and after a while, he walked towards the house.
So no one heard those babbling remarks: "It's just a pity, why can't you also pick Sheng Xuyan's skin?" ”
The name of the Son of Heaven is Sheng Xuyan, which is a harbor of evil intentions and a great rebellion.
Rong Tang went back to the room, lay on the bed for a long time, and the moment the sleepiness finally hit his brain, the sky outside was as dark as a pool of thick ink, but there was a neighbor's chicken who didn't know whose one hissed, and it was about to dawn.
The door was pushed open, Su Huaijing entered the room with a body of dew, took off his robe lightly and lay on the bed, hugging Rong Tang to make up for a nap that was about to get up.
The hand was grasped, the fingers were squeezed apart, and the fingers of the other climbed in.
Rong Tang was almost frozen and shrunk.
This was the first time he felt an extremely cold body temperature on Su Huaijing's body; It was also the first time that Su Huaijing climbed into his bed, forgetting to warm up his hands and feet.
Rong Tang closed his eyes, his heart ached, and he rolled into his arms quietly, extremely rare, and warmed up for the villain.
They stayed at Mu Jingxu's home for three days.
Early the next morning, Mu Shaoqing opened his eyes, his face was as pale as paper, but his demeanor was calm as if he had never been tortured.
He took a case file and chatted casually with Su Huaijing, Ke Hongxue entered the house with the medicine, his temples jumped, and he angrily tore open the roll of paper in his hand.
On the day Mu Jingxu's sick leave ended, the city of Yujing City was full of festivities, and there were river lamps made of gold leaf floating on the Jinfen River, each of which was praying for the emperor.
The city gate was opened, and the Quartet came to congratulate, and the three-day longevity festival of the Son of Heaven finally kicked off.
Rong Tang left Mu Mansion, looking at Mu Jingxu wearing a white dress with an expressionless face, being carried into the carriage by Ke Hongxue into the palace, a little blood oozing from the back of the robe, and only one thought flashed in his mind for a moment:
What birthday is the Dog Emperor, forget it when he dies.!
