In the early days of the emergence of the product of the court meeting, there was a rule: every three days, but since ancient times, the most indispensable thing is the king who is diligent and loves the people.

In the middle of the previous dynasty, there was an emperor who wanted to prosper and set a precedent of one dynasty a day, and even when the penultimate emperor of the previous dynasty came, there were two dynasties a day, and there would be a noon dynasty after the early dynasty, which made the officials at that time miserable.

Although the current emperor Chu Zheng has an almost paranoid love for handling government affairs, fortunately it has not reached the point of madness, and it is only a two-day day, which can still allow the officials below to rest and rest.

It happened to be difficult to go to court today, so Lin'an Street was unusually quiet this morning, which made the Taishi Mansion, which was already a crowd, even more bleak.

Lu Xiangrui's Taishi Mansion is really not big, and it is not even as good as the mansions of those four- and five-grade officials, and everyone in the capital knows that Taishi Lu Xiangrui had a wife when he was young, but it is a pity that he failed to leave him a son and a half daughter and returned to Huangquan. After that, Lu Xiangrui never married for life, even if the emperor was a matchmaker, it was useless.

In addition to Lu Xiangrui himself, there are only four old servants who have been with him since he was young, these four people were his guards when they were young, and he also persuaded them to leave, but they were unwilling, saying that if they become your guards, they will protect you for the rest of your life......

Very suddenly, a man in civilian clothes and a hat appeared in front of the Taishi's Mansion.

"Knock knock. ”

The old man who was guarding the door looked at the man outside the door and was a little puzzled, he knew the situation of his master in the court, he didn't have many friends at all, he knew most of them, but in his impression, there was no person in front of him at all!

"Who are you looking for. ”

"I came to find the Taishi, he has an urgent matter, this matter is very important, and I asked the old gentleman to go in and report it, in addition..."

As he spoke, the visitor glanced around before lowering his voice.

"Silence!"

The old servant gave him a suspicious look, and asked him to wait outside the door, and then turned around and went in to report.

It didn't take long for the old servant to come back and take the strange man in, and saw Lu Xiangrui reading in the study, not reading to be precise, but finding fault, because the man who was brought in saw a four-word annotation on the book at a glance: bullshit!

"Who are you, what are you looking for me, what do you want to do?"

Lu Xiangrui's three consecutive questions pulled back the man's thoughts, only to see that he took off his hat and revealed his true face, which made Lu Xiangrui on the other side recognize the person who came.

"It's you! I've seen you, it seems to be a public examiner in the Ministry of Officials, hiss, what's your name..."

Lu Xiangrui patted his head, looking like he couldn't remember.

"Taishi, the villain's name is Qi Baihe. ”

"Yes, yes, it's you, what did you come to me for. ”

Qi Baihe, who was still reviewing the test papers in the yamen of the ministry yesterday, took out a stack of papers from his arms.

"Taishi, the test papers of the candidates in the Ministry of Officials are not allowed to be brought out, so the lower officials quietly copied a copy and brought it out, you have a good eye to see which of the two test papers is the sixth place in this imperial examination. ”

Lu Xiangrui took the test paper, only glanced at it, and then took out the answer sheet of Qian Dabao and said calmly.

"This is sixth. ”

Qi Baihe's eyes flashed with surprise, and he suddenly felt that he was too young to see the beauty of the song "Big Stone".

Lu Xiangrui laughed when he looked at the reaction.

"If you had a sixth place in another paper, you wouldn't have come to me. ”

"Taishi Gaojian. ”

Lu Xiangrui's laughter did not stop.

"It's not that I'm high-minded, it's that your official kung fu cultivation is not at home, pick up those two test papers and go into the palace with me! This time, if I don't break their teeth, even if they don't grow!"

Qi Baihe's face was embarrassed, and he didn't seem to want to go into the palace, because in this way, he would not be exposed!

"You're afraid of a fart, it's hard to talk to a stupid person like you, since the old man dares to take you into the palace, he will naturally protect you, maybe, and give you a creation, if others had such an opportunity, they would have stolen the fun, only you, a fool, are still here to see the situation clearly. ”

Qi Baihe suddenly realized and was overjoyed.

"Master Xie brought it. ”

...

When it was not in the early dynasty, the Donghua Gate was not opened, but it was still very easy for a person like Taishi to see the emperor, and there was no need to inform the guards who consciously took Lu Xiangrui and them towards the regent hall, it seems that Chu Zheng had already greeted those people who wanted to see him and did not need to tell him.

"The old minister Lu Xiangrui visited the emperor. ”

As soon as he entered the room, Lu Xiangrui looked at Chu Zheng, who was still reading the folds, and thought, I haven't seen a few people handing over the folds on weekdays, where did the emperor come from so many folds to read?

"It's rare for the old lady to take the initiative to come into the palace to see me, I don't know if the old lady is going to come this time..."

"Your Majesty, it's not the old man who wants to make trouble this time, it's the examiner behind me who has something to play, and I'm afraid of retaliation behind me, so I just found the old man and me as a guarantor. ”

After Lu Xiangrui's reminder, Chu Zheng saw the little five-grade member Wailang behind him.

"Qi Baihe of the Ministry of Officials, I am not mistaken! I can guarantee you for something, why bother the old lady!"

"Don't dare!"

Qi Baihe is not Su Wang, Lu Xiangrui, these high-ranking officials who can be regarded as half of the elders of Chu Zheng, but they were frightened in the face of the emperor's joking tone, and they fell to the ground all of a sudden.

"Okay, okay, I won't scare you, just say anything!"

"Fool, don't stand up yet!"

Lu Xiangrui stretched out his foot and kicked Qi Baihe, and he stood up tremblingly.

"Back to the emperor, this is..."

Qi Baihe took out the two test papers from his chest and put them on Chu Zheng's desk, and at the same time told Chu Zheng about the situation he encountered when he was marking the papers.

"In this way, you mean to impeach that Sun Liufang!"

After listening to the narration, Chu Zheng didn't act angry, and his tone was still steady, which made Qi Baihe feel that his trip to the palace was a little out of place, could it... At present, the emperor has no intention of initiating a scientific expedition.

"Originally, I was going to settle this matter after two years to see the results of the academy, but since you have already raised it, then settle this matter today!"

"Someone, go to the ministry!"

Soon, Chu Zheng and his party went all the way to the place where the yamen of the Ministry of Officials was located under the arrangement of Wu Cicada.

"The emperor has arrived!"

Before arriving at the door, the sharp voice of the cicada had already spread throughout the entire official department, and after a while, I saw Sun Liufang come out with a large group of officials in various official robes to pick up the car.

As soon as he came out, Sun Liufang saw a foreigner who was subordinate to him who was following the emperor, and he suddenly felt that something seemed to be wrong today.

"The ministers see the emperor!"

Under the leadership of Sun Liufang, all the officials knelt at the feet of Chu Zheng.

"Sun Aiqing, I came today to see the revision of the imperial examination, don't bother!"

What are you afraid of, it seems that it was really the little member named Qi Baihe who said something in front of the emperor.

Although Sun Liufang was already planning to get rid of this Qi Baihe in his heart, but at this time, he was just as worried in his heart.

"How dare you bother the emperor to say the word bother, I don't know what the emperor wants to know?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I heard that Qian Dabao, the sixth place in this imperial examination, is not very talented, so I want to meet this person, please ask Sun Aiqing to send someone to invite him!"

"This..."

Sun Liufang was a little hesitant.

"What's wrong? Why don't I send someone to ask for it?"

"No, no, no, how dare you bother the emperor, the minister will let people invite Qian Dabao!"

"Okay, then I'll be waiting here!"

After finishing speaking, Chu Zheng closed his eyes and rested on the dragon bowl. And Sun Liufang was already sweating profusely, and the two were trembling.

Sun Liufang stood for about a quarter of an hour in this extremely unbearable state of depression, and Qian Dabao, who was still squandering in the Dream Building during the day, was finally brought back.

"Qian Dabao, the one in front is the emperor, don't kneel down quickly, pay attention to what you say!"

The person who came was a fat man with a fat head and big ears, his expression was very silly, and the corners of his mouth would still drool.

This Qian Dabao was entering the palace for the first time, and he was full of curiosity about everything, and it was not until Sun Liufang spoke that he brought back his attention.

"The minister sees the emperor. ”

The corners of Qian Dabao's mouth knelt down before he could wipe it, and he still called himself a minister like those court officials.

After finishing speaking, he stood up without waiting for Chu Zheng to speak, and then stared at Chu Zheng vigorously, making Sun Liufang, who was standing on the side, so anxious that he stomped his feet.

"You are Qian Dabao!"

"Back to the emperor, it's me!"

Because the person who went to call him said that the emperor admired his talent, Qian Dabao was still happy in his heart at this time.

"Hehehe, in fact, I called you here because I want your help with something. ”

"What's the matter, the emperor said it directly, my father told me, there is nothing in the world that money can't do, and the last thing my Qian family lacks is money!"

Qian Dabao patted his chest and assured Chu Zheng.

"Hahaha, that's right, but this has nothing to do with money, it's a case in my hand that can't be judged clearly, I want you to take a look. ”

"Cheng, Cheng! Your Majesty, this matter is on me. ”

"Okay, come on!"

After that, Lu Xiangrui and Qi Baihe, who had been prepared for a long time, came on the field.

Qi Baihe also tied a white cloth around his ears.

"Lord Qian, Lord Qian, you have to be the master for me!"

The perpetrator played by Lu Xiangrui opened his mouth to speak, and it could be seen that his acting skills were very exquisite, after all, he acted with Su Wang and them in front of Chutian when he was young.

"If you have any grievances, just say it, and Lord Ben will call the shots for you. ”

"My lord, this guy falsely accused me that I bit his ear!"

"Oh, why did you falsely accuse him of biting your ear!"

Qian Dabao turned his head to look at Qi Baihe.

"My lord, I... I didn't falsely accuse him, it was he who bit my ear. Otherwise, why don't I falsely accuse others of others!"

Compared with Lu Xiangrui, Qi Baihe was too nervous when acting, especially in front of the emperor.

"That's right, then tell me, why he only sues you and doesn't say goodbye!"

"My lord, it was really he who bit himself, just like this, he was standing on a stool and bit his own ear!"

Lu Xiangrui said as he grinned to the side of his ear, which was extremely funny.

"Okay! You dare to tease your own official, even if you bite your own ear, you dare to slander others, see that I don't..."

"Enough!"

Qian Dabao's official addiction was interrupted by Chu Zheng before he could get enough.

"Sun Liufang, Sun Liufang, do you really think that I won't dare to take your head?"

"The old minister deserves death!"

Sun Liufang, who was already sweating profusely, immediately knelt on the ground, slammed his head on the ground and banged, and the ground was stained with blood in just a few clicks.

At this time, it would be the most stupid if you still insisted on denying it, and there might be a glimmer of life if you directly admit your mistakes.

Ignoring Sun Liufang, who had knocked his head to pieces, Chu Zheng turned his head to look at Qi Baihe.

"Hey, I'll give you a chance, and in the future, how about you come to assess the world for me!"

Qi Baihe, who was hit in the head by a pie falling from the sky, was a little dizzy and didn't react, but at this critical time, it was Lu Xiangrui who stretched out his key kick.

"Fool, don't kneel down and thank you!"

"The courtiers Bai He will definitely live up to the emperor's high expectations!"

He also knelt on the ground, banging his head on the ground, followed by blood flowing out, just like Sun Liufang's scene.

However, in the same scene, the mood of the two is completely different.

One in heaven, one in hell.
