Chapter 71: The Show Begins
In the second hall, the two princes of Zhennan and Zhenxihou were sitting in the back seat of the hall, waiting for the arrival of Bai Li.
And Bai Li's side didn't let them wait long, and soon appeared within their perception range, in their sight.
"Presumably this is the face of the second son of Bai, right?" The Xuanyi man stood up and took the lead in speaking: "Sure enough, it is as gentle and elegant as rumored, and the appearance is dignified." ”
"The prince is too famous, and Bai also wants to be as powerful and proud as the two princes. As he spoke, Bai Li covered his mouth again and coughed lightly a few times, and then laughed at himself: "It's a pity that I have more than enough heart and not enough strength, so I can only make people laugh." ”
"Why should the second son be presumptuous," Xuanyi comforted: "The second son of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, who can laugh, who dares to laugh!"
"Okay, are you two sour?" Seeing that the politeness between Bai Li and the man in Xuanyi seemed to be getting more and more energetic, the man in red robe couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "It's all your own people, who is the politeness for?"
Hearing this, Bai Li and the man in Xuanyi couldn't help but sigh, and then seemed to let go a lot. Of course, only they know who is pretending.
"Okay, second son, presumably you should also know our identity, and you should also know the purpose of coming. After the red-robed man sat down, he went straight to the point and said: "To put it bluntly, this time the Son of Heaven summoned our father to Beijing, and the three of us came, in fact, we came to deal with it." Therefore, in the court of the Son of Heaven, in their opinion, this kind of behavior of ours may not be able to be rebellious.
So in the days you didn't arrive, there were many people who were looking for trouble with the two of us, either openly or secretly, and of course, in the end, they didn't end up with anything good.
But these are all subsections, and the ones that really have a headache haven't shot yet. As far as I know, during this period of time, there have been many important ministers who have signed joint names, and the one who danced the most was the imperial envoy doctor who advocated some great unification. He said that he would cure our father for the sin of contempt for the court and great disrespect. The Son of Heaven is now all in the middle of the line, and I guess this is waiting for you to arrive, and then meet us together.
So Brother Duanmu and I will think about finding you in advance, don't really have any leaks when we meet at that time, then we will not be able to see our father and the elders under his rule. ”
"Brother Le has a heart," Bai Li nodded and coughed lightly a few times, then said with a straight face: "Please rest assured, Brother Le, the two are the best in the world, and Bai is also not a soft bone." If it's not ours, we will definitely not take more. The ...... of our Bai will never let go!"
Both sides had the same interests, so in the following conversation, the three of them talked quite happily, and Bai Li had a general understanding of the two princes of the Hou Mansion in their conversations.
Le Zhong, that is, the young man in the red robe, is the sister-in-law of Zhenxi Hou, that is, the prince. The character seems to be bold and rough, but in fact he is a person who is rough and fine, and has a delicate heart that does not match his appearance.
This can be seen from the many insights that can be seen in the conversation with him.
Duanmu Xiu, that is, the young man in Xuanyi, is the son of Zhennanhou. has a pair of eyes that seem to be able to penetrate people's hearts, and there is always a smile on his face like a spring breeze.
I have to say that these two sons were trained quite well by the two marquis. It is no wonder that they can be relieved to let them enter Beijing alone and face the courtiers of the Son of Heaven.
The time when Bai Li arrived in the capital was in the afternoon, plus washing, and meeting Bai Er. Therefore, I didn't talk to the two princes for too long, and it was too late.
Seeing that the talk had already been discussed, the two princes refused Bai Li's retention, directly submitted their farewells, and agreed to meet again at the same time, and then took their subordinates to turn around and return to the Hou Mansion they had set up in the capital.
Seeing the two princes disappear in front of his eyes, Bai Li's smile on his face began to slowly converge, and after a simple dinner, he was ready to rest early.
Tomorrow...... There is also a good show, waiting for him to taste it well.
The sun and the moon rotated, and the night passed, the daylight came again, and the Jingzhao Mansion located in the capital also began a new day of painting, and the officials of each class came to the yamen one after another to sign in for painting.
Then, just as they were about to change shifts and eat according to their custom, they suddenly heard the drums outside, so they could only stop and prepare to ascend to the church.
There is no trivial matter in the capital, after all, the ghost knows what the person who complained about is the source, in case you have a relationship with which courtier and prince, if they are lazy here, maybe you will give some small shoes to wear in the future.
So soon, Jing Zhaoyin, who was located in the back hall, came to the front hall and directly ordered someone to pass the complainant in, ready to see what was going on, to disturb the silence early in the morning.
And with the arrival of the complainant, the complaint was handed to Jing Zhaoyin, and Jing Zhaoyin found that the matter was really not small!
for the person against whom the complaint is made ...... It's actually related to the town north of the Houfu!
For a while, Jing Zhaoyin couldn't help but fall into a dilemma, it was really like getting a hot potato...... It is not appropriate to take or put it away.
It's no wonder that he is dignified Jing Zhaoyin, as a member of the imperial court, he is very aware of the delicate relationship between the current imperial court and the princes of the three towns. If he makes this delicate balance tilt or break because of him, it is not enough to lose his entire family.
Of course, it is not ruled out that he is worried.
After all, the people in the hall are not suing Zhenbei Hou and Zhenbei Hou's family, but a subordinate.
However, some things are not afraid of 10,000, just in case, when it comes to this kind of thing, there is no big mistake in being careful, but it is better to be cautious in words and deeds than to really have an accident and regret it.
However, the person who complained below didn't seem to notice the embarrassment of Jing Zhaoyin, who was sitting on the top, and after seeing Jing Zhaoyin receiving his own pleadings, he began to cry directly, denouncing the beastly behavior of the person who was informed!
Crying is a heart-rending, making the listener sad and the listener crying.
In this regard, Jing Zhaoyin couldn't help but have a headache even more. After pondering for a long time, seeing that the people outside the hall were getting more and more crowded, and it was becoming more and more difficult for him to ride a tiger on his side, he weighed the pros and cons, and could only grit his teeth and be ruthless, and ordered the officials to go to the north of the town to wait for the mansion.
He was going to bring the defendant, that is, Lu Ping, the son of Mr. Yu Jingzhong's bookkeeper in Zhenbei Houfu, back to Jingzhao Mansion.
At the same time, on a restaurant not far from Jingzhao Mansion, the eldest grandson Wuji was drinking with a young man who was dressed luxuriously, and saw several officials of Jingzhao Mansion walking out of Jingzhao Mansion and heading towards the direction of Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
The richly dressed young man couldn't help but smile and said, "Eldest grandson, it seems that there will be a good show soon." ”
"Your Highness the Seventh is not in a hurry, this is just an appetizer in front of you," Eldest Sun Wuji poured a glass of wine for the young man, and then chuckled: "What a real show...... It's not even open yet!"
