Chapter 411: On the Book of the Sage Na Taizhen Concubine
One after another, a big drama ended, bringing a few joys and a few sorrows.
Xiao Changshi's death was not honorable, and the Shouwang Mansion was still clamoring to investigate the cause of his death to the end at first, but in the end it was still over. According to people familiar with the matter, soon after the incident, Xiao Changshi's family quietly moved out of Shouwang's Mansion and disappeared. Dai Ziang was beheaded for the crime, Dai Ziang's eldest son was sentenced to death, and the Dai family was finished.
And those Lang Jun, who became the protagonists of the Spring Palace because of raising male pets and gathering crowds for fornication, were also caught a few typical, or dismissed from official positions, or caused disaster to their parents. For a time, at least ten people in Chang'an City lost their officials, and three of them were Li Linfu's henchmen!
For a while, the people of the government and the opposition were panicked, and everyone became more and more cautious about Li Linfu, lest they would anger him, and they would be the next to be tortured to death.
When the news came back to Yangzhou, Cui Pu just sneered: "After all, my official position is too low." Now it only slightly shakes his roots. If I want to completely destroy him, I don't have the ability to do it now. ”
Fortunately, he can still recognize this fact.
Mu Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief, and persuaded softly: "It's okay, you're still young." Be a good official, climb up slowly, and one day you will be able to face him face to face. If you can't wait for that day, you'll kill him!"
Burst!
Cui Pu couldn't cry or laugh for a while. "I don't want to kill him. I must trample him under his feet in his lifetime, and make him repent and admit his mistakes for the evil things he has done!"
"Well, I've got your back. Mu Jiaojiao shook his head, but said in his heart - until this day, he will have to stay up for at least another ten years, right? Ten years, I don't know what he will look like?
Thinking about it again, she suddenly found that Cui Pudu had been an official for ten years!
Tianchang County for three years, Hailing County for a little more than three years, and then in Chang'an for Mrs. Cui for half a year. Now, it is Cui Pu's third year as the prefect of Yangzhou.
Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. Looking back on the past, when Cui Pu first arrived in office, he didn't understand anything, and he created a good world in Tianchang County. Looking back on the achievements of the past ten years, she realized that they have experienced so many things and made so many achievements!
Each of these pieces is enough to make people famous and proud of the group. However, Cui Pu can make eye-catching achievements every time he arrives, and it is no wonder that he has become the prefect of Yangzhou respected by everyone in a short period of time.
If he continues to move forward with such momentum, it must be that in another ten years, it will not be a delusion for him to return to Chang'an and Li Linfu to fight the gongs and drums face to face!
Soon after, Cao Shu and Qiu Shan also returned.
After the trial of the case was completed, although Cao Shiyilang was the bitter master of this case, he was also guilty after all, so after the dust settled, he was still escorted to the barracks and continued to serve in the army.
Cao Shu retrieved Cao Shishilang's bones, and found a beautiful place outside Yangzhou City to bury him.
When Mrs. Cao learned about it, she scolded again. However, Cao Shu doesn't clash with her head-on at all now, and Qiu Shan stands up to confront her in everything. Even after learning that Mrs. Cao was now being pressed to do chores in the hospital, Cao Shu only said lightly: "Oh, I know." ”
That's it. did not rescue her from the infirmary as Mrs. Cao wished, and put her by her side as before.
Mrs. Cao inevitably shed a few more tears and scolded her. It's just that now her identity has already been made public, and she has long lost the handle to control Cao Shu. Cao Shu was really heartbroken by her, and now she only plans to give her a pension and send her to the end, and it is enough to fulfill her filial piety on behalf of her father. As for what kind of food and clothing are offered to her or something...... Hehe, don't even think about it!
"By the way, Uncle told us that there is chaos in Chang'an City now, so he suggested that we come to Yangzhou to follow you. By the way, he also let Da Lang practice his medical skills with his cousin. Following my cousin for a year is more useful than ten years of him running around alone!"
Ya, why are you confused, there is another oil bottle behind them?
Hearing this, Cui Pu's mood became less cheerful again. There is no way, Mu Jiaojiao and Qiu Shan's past is still a thorn buried deep in his heart, even if Qiu Shan and Cao Shu are married, they have not been completely pulled out. Originally, he thought that after getting married, Qiu Shan would be able to leave Yangzhou with Cao Shu, and he would save this girl from pestering Mu Jiaojiao all day long, staring at Mu Jiaojiao with a pair of eyes full of admiration, and he could see that his heart was beating from time to time, and he always couldn't help but start thinking more. As a result, who would have thought......
What a mistake, what a mistake he made!
Mu Jiaojiao didn't care about this.
"Just follow us. However, now Rokuro's term as prefect will soon be three years old. After the performance appraisal, we will have to readjust the official position, and we don't know where we are going!"
As for continuing to stay in the position of Yangzhou prefect, it is unlikely. The position of the prefect of Yangzhou is too important, and it is full of oil and water, and ordinary people will get out after sitting for two terms at most. And as for the things Cui Pu did a few days ago, I'm afraid that the officials won't be so good anymore.
"It's okay, Da Lang and I have already discussed, cousin, we will go wherever you go. As long as you are here, even if we go to the barren mountains and mountains, we are not afraid!" Cao Shu immediately said.
Qiu Shan fixed his head.
This little couple is also eyeing them.
Cui Pu was completely powerless. Mu Jiaojiao smiled lightly, very satisfied with their loyalty.
Asked them some more news from Chang'an, and Cao Shu and Qiu Shan answered them one by one.
The young couple encountered a lawsuit on their wedding day, and they went to Chang'an halfway, and they just came back today, and there were many twists and turns along the way. By now, they should be tired, and Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao didn't keep them much. When they got the news they wanted, they hurried to send them back to rest.
"By the way, cousin, cousin-in-law, before we came back, the eldest young lady in the old mansion, the third young lady in the mansion of the Eguo Prince, and the Langjun of the Fan Yang Lu clan all wrote to us to bring it to you. ”
Cao Shu said, then took out a thick stack of letters from the baggage and handed them to them.
"Well, thank you. Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly bowed her head.
Cao Shu went down with Qiu Shan with confidence.
Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao looked at the seven or eight letters in front of them, and then looked at the signatures on the cover, and both of them twitched the corners of their mouths in unison.
"Did you go too far this time, why did you surprise them all?" asked Mu Jiaojiao in a low voice.
"No, with my nature, I can do a lot of lawless things, and they don't know it. Cui Pu pursed his lips and said, "Besides, half of it is for you!"
"Yes. Mu Jiaojiao nodded, "Let's take a look at what is written in the letter first!"
After the words fell, the husband and wife each opened their respective letters and read them carefully.
After reading the first letter at hand, the couple's faces became serious. After reading the letter at hand, their expressions were already a little surprised and puzzled.
"The matter of the saint and the princess of Shou...... Sister Cheng already told you in the letter, right?" The two looked at each other, and Cui Pu said slowly.
Mu Jiaojiao's head was bright.
Cui Pu immediately threw away the letter. "Shameless! It's really a Hu man who doesn't pay attention to etiquette, and he can even do the thing of forcibly snatching his daughter-in-law!"
Mu Jiaojiao was silent.
The affair between Emperor Tang Ming and Yang Guifei, she knew about it eight hundred years ago. Even the poems about two people she can recite backwards. Now that it's really happened, her feelings are only faint.
Maybe it's because she's been exposed to it since she was a child and has psychologically accepted this story!
However, Cui Pu was born in a family and was deeply influenced by etiquette since he was a child, and he was psychologically disgusted with such incestuous things. For a while, he couldn't accept it.
"But think about it another way. In this way, King Shou's face was lost, and King Shou's Mansion became a joke in the New Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the martial arts family was also completely devastated and Xiao Changshi's children could no longer use the hand of King Shou to avenge Xiao Changshi. And that's a good thing. Mu Jiaojiao carefully comforted.
Cui Pu said coldly: "Even if the surnamed Xiao and the surnamed Wu find me, I can use my true skills to destroy them, and there is no need to use such a disgusting method to weaken their combat effectiveness." It's an insult to me!"
Mu Jiaojiao shrugged his shoulders, and only said in his heart-you should be angry first, and then there will be things that make you even more angry!
More than a month later, in October of the twenty-eighth year of Kaiyuan, the sage thought that in the name of praying for his mother Empress Dowager Dou, the edict Yang became a female Taoist priest, and the Taoist name was "Taizhen".
It's the Yang family, not the Shou princess Yang Yuhuan. You can see the clue from the title.
When the news reached Yangzhou, Cui Pu sent another fire.
Jiangbei is accustomed to producing literati and scholars, and the students who grew up in this land that has hardly been invaded by Hu culture are the strongest supporters of Confucian culture. After learning of this, scholars from Yangzhou, Suzhou, and Changzhou protested one after another, and collectively signed the "Book on the Sage Na Taizhen Concubine" and handed it over to the imperial court.
On top of that, Cui Pu's private seal was stamped.
Mu Jiaojiao watched him stamp his private seal, but sighed weakly: "I know that it is a matter of powerlessness, where did you get the passion to persist so far?"
"It doesn't matter if he can't return to the sky, anyway, we're just expressing one of our attitudes!" Cui Pu said disapprerovingly.
The scroll quickly passed through layers of scrutiny and was sent to the sage's desk.
After reading this scroll carefully, his eyes lingered on the red seal at the end for a long time, and the sage smiled helplessly: "This little Cui Aiqing, but her courage is getting bigger and bigger! Li Zhongshu, what do you say?"
