Duan Qingliu glanced at Jiang Qinzhou and asked, "Father-in-law, don't make fun of our old brothers!"

The father-in-law was like a little hen, giggling twice, and then said, "Our family has already brought the reward from the Holy Father, and there is no need to hide this holy decree." The reason why our family doesn't give it is because on this holy decree, two holy parables can be written. Our family, we have to go to another family to spread the decree. ”

Jiang Qinzhou was stunned, and said secretly in his heart: "This, how can these two holy parables be written on a holy decree." Before he had time to think about it, Jiang Qinzhou got up busily, grabbed the eunuch and said, "Father-in-law, please sit down and rest, several fathers-in-law, all sit!" The father-in-law pushed and shoved, but he couldn't help it, so he sat on the chair. When he sat down, he glanced at Jiang Qinzhou and said, "Jiang Shumi, you are so powerful." ”

Jiang Qinzhou smiled quite awkwardly, and then he shouted outside the hall: "Come on!" After a few maids and servants came in, Jiang Qinzhou said: "Serve good tea to these fathers-in-law, and by the way, cut a cantaloupe and give a few fathers-in-law a taste." ”

Several fathers-in-law all looked at each other and couldn't hold back their low exclamations. The proclamator said: "My God, Jiang Shumi, you still have that treasure in your house." There are a few of our families, and we have only seen them a few times in the palace, but we have never eaten them. ”

Jiang Qinzhou said with a smile: "Not long ago, a friend brought one, this thing is rare, it has always been a tribute to the saint, where do I have a mouth to enjoy, so I ordered someone to put it in the ice cellar." Only a few fathers-in-law came to wait for such distinguished guests, and they were willing to take them out. ”

Several fathers-in-law laughed at "flowers and branches", and praised Jiang Qinzhou for being too polite. But when the cut, piece by piece, hung with ice ballast, the cantaloupe was even more golden and brilliant. Yo, these people are missing a vertical master, so you're welcome. As soon as they picked up the melons that had not completely thawed, they stuffed them into their mouths.

Good guys, at first glance. Several fathers-in-law all had red mouths, melon flesh and ice foam flew in front of their mouths, and their saliva was the same color, and the one who ate it was called a sin, but their hearts must be happy. After eating the melon, the father-in-law who passed the decree wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "Jiang Shumi, if you have anything to say, then just ask, our family knows everything, and there is no end to it." Jiang Qinzhou frowned and said, "What my father-in-law said is chilling." ”

My father-in-law smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

Jiang Qinzhou smiled and said, "Father-in-law, please eat melons, but for the sake of the friendship between the two of us." It's not like I'm asking for some news, don't be mistaken. ”

The father-in-law was a clever man, and as soon as his eyes rolled, he smiled and said, "Our family knows, Jiang Shumi, there is something we want to tell you." Jiang Qinzhou smiled and said, "Father-in-law, it's okay to say it." ”

The father-in-law smiled and said, "Before our family says it, we have to say hello to Jiang Shumi." ”

Jiang Qinzhou sighed and said, "I don't know how happy I am." ”

The father-in-law smiled and said: "Our big Song Lang Lang Qiankun, the saint rewards and punishments are clear, is this joy?"

Jiang Qinzhou said with a smile: "Naturally, this matter is naturally gratifying. ”

The father-in-law continued: "Jiang Shumi doesn't know, the dozen or so adults who gave birth to demons, not only were their sons beheaded, but even they themselves could not be protected. The second parable written on this holy decree of our family is the punishment of those adults by the Holy Lord. Most of them have been relegated to the localities, and the lighter ones have also been demoted by three levels. ”

Duan Qingliu, who had been silent, glanced at Jiang Qinzhou and said in surprise: "This, this time so many big officials have been demoted, can the imperial court stand it?" Jiang Qinzhou smiled and said: "Yes, although those adults have some problems with the discipline of their children, they will not end up with such a serious punishment." The demotion of more than a dozen senior officials at once is not a blessing for the daily operation of each yamen. ”

The father-in-law put on the crown and said lightly: "Our family can't take care of this, but our family knows one thing, and the two adults must know better, that is, our court lacks everything, except for those who are officials, so don't worry about it." With that, he got up and said, "Let's take our leave." Jiang Qinzhou got up and said, "Why don't you sit anymore?"

"No need, but before we leave, there is something I want to say to Jiang Shumi. ”

Jiang Qinzhou arched his hand and said: "Listen to me." ”

The father-in-law said lightly: "After Jiang Shumi, don't talk so confusedly, what you say is in the clouds, but it annoys people." ”

Jiang Qinzhou said, "Thank you father-in-law for your advice." ”

After these fathers-in-law left, Duan Qingliu smiled and said: "Sai Weng is not blessed if he loses his horse, Qin Zhou, the Holy Lord is clearly going to carry you this time!"

Jiang Qinzhou smiled bitterly and didn't answer, he said helplessly: "Qingliu, I think we have been ignoring two people before. I think they may have planned this incident. ”

Duan Qingliu pondered for a moment and said, "You mean Gonggong An, the great eunuch of the Inner Servant Province, and Gonggong Zhang, the great eunuch of the palace province?"

Jiang Qinzhou nodded and said, "Not bad." ”

Duan Qingliu waved his hand and said: "This shouldn't be possible, Grandpa An and Grandpa Zhang are both old people in the palace, and they have been doing their duty for decades." Besides, the saint is the most tired of eunuchs interfering in politics. ”

Jiang Qinzhou nodded and said: "That being said, it is difficult to draw the skin and bones of a tiger, and you don't know your heart." The weeds in the field, the crops don't like it, and the farmer doesn't like it either, so the people only have three days to plant, but it takes half a year to weed. But despite the fact that in addition to the half-year grass, there are always a few grasses that grow in the dark that remain. When the people found out, the harvest was ripe and the grass grew. Father-in-law An and Father-in-law Zhang may be the right people, but who can guarantee that under their hands, there are no people with a heart?"

Duan Qingliu nodded and said, "That makes sense." ”

Jiang Qinzhou suddenly strode out of the hall and shouted, "Plug the door, no matter who comes to visit today, you can't let it in!" Duan Qingliu followed out and said, "Qinzhou, when that holy decree is issued, its news will spread all over Lin'an City in less than an hour." When the time comes, anyone can see that the Holy One is going to lift you. There are definitely no fewer guests who come to visit. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, why are you closing your door?"

Jiang Qinzhou said lightly: "The more you are in this joint, the more you have to tremble. Do you know why the Holy One gave that decree?"

Duan Qingliu shook his head and said with a smile: "I see, you also listen to the words of that father-in-law, and say anything directly." ”

Jiang Qinzhou smiled dumbly and said, "Yes." Although the saint is young, he is a person who sees things clearly and is witty. Do you know why the Holy Lord handed over the military and political power to me and Qin Xiang respectively?"

Duan Qingliu smiled and said, "Naturally, it's because the Holy Lord trusts you. ”

Jiang Qinzhou nodded and said, "This is certainly one of the reasons, but it is not the whole story. The Holy One ascended the throne in the midst of national crisis, and his foundation is weak. Therefore, if the Holy One wants to manage this stormy country, he has to temporarily delegate power. Rely on me and Qin Xiang to act as the regent. The open and secret battles between me and Qin Xiang over the years have been seen by the saints. The reason why the Holy Lord has not intervened is because this kind of struggle has more benefits than disadvantages for the Great Song Dynasty that governs today. But this time, the Holy Lord, like you, thinks that this incident was planned by Qin Xiang. The saint felt that Qin Xiang had gone too far, so he made a move and belittled those officials. This time, the saint is not only trying to beat Qin Xiang, but also warning me. If I open the door wide now to welcome guests, the next time I am beaten, it will be me. You say, can I not close my door?"

When Duan Qingliu heard this, he suddenly realized, he said: "Qin Zhou, you still think clearly, but I am confused and happy." ”

Jiang Qinzhou waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't go back today, stay at home to eat." Duan Qingliu smiled and said, "Then I might as well be respectful." ”

A breeze blew from the north of the city, and within a moment, the people in the south of the city were blown in.

Duan Qingliu still thought too conservatively, and within half an hour, the news that the nineteen high-ranking officials led by Zhang Jun had been collectively demoted was heard clearly by those officials and men who were hiding at home, with their bodies against the window and their ears exposed outside the window. Everyone was surprised, when they thought that even if Jiang Qinzhou was immortal this time, he would have to be skinned, but the unlucky one was Qin Zhonghui's cronies. Among the nineteen people, Zhang Jun was the most ruthless. A dignified squire, and a member of the two courts at the same time, was demoted to a small magistrate.

You must know that in the past two years, Qin Zhonghui has handed over most of the official affairs in his hands to Wan Yiqi and Zhang Jun because of his old age. Now that Zhang Jun is gone, it will be considered as a broken arm. Everyone put away the horror in their hearts, put on gifts, and went to Jiang's mansion together. In the same way, they all ate a closed door.

The temple is changing and treacherous, making people unable to explain and understand.

Some people are deeply involved in it, and naturally there are also people who do not have this trouble.

In the Horse Mansion, in a quiet small courtyard, only the clanging sound of jade colliding can be heard constantly. At a glance, it turned out that Biyin was solving the nine links. Biyin was really dazzled by the big and small rings, and blushed. Finally, she sighed, handed the Nine Links to the man squatting in front of her, and said, "Second Master Chai... Take this thing away, Biyin is too stupid to unravel it. ”

The man was Chai Yanqing, and he smiled: "It took me several days to find this boring thing for you, how can you say don't want it?"

Biyin let out an "ah" and said in surprise: "Second master, you haven't been here for a few days, are you just looking for this?"

Chai Yanqing smiled slyly and said, "What's the matter, good girl, are you looking forward to me day and night?"

Biyin's face turned red, and she waved her hand busily and said, "No, the slave is just thinking about why the second master hasn't come to get the clothes yet." ”

Chai Yanqing smiled with interest, and then cheered up again and said: "Good girl, if you call me Brother Yanqing, I will teach you how to solve these nine links, okay?"

Ruo'er sat on the bluestone on the side, leaned on her cheeks and listened quietly, and suddenly, she smiled and said, "Brother Qing, you let me also solve the toy, okay?"

Chai Yanqing glanced at Ruo'er, and said impatiently: "Go and go, where do I have time to pay attention to you." ”

Ruo'er pouted, and then said no more.

Biyin smiled: "Ruo'er, you take it to play." ”

As she spoke, Biyin was about to hand the Nine Links to Ruo'er. Ruo'er was about to reach out to pick it up, but the nine consecutive rings were snatched away by Chai Yanqing.

Chai Yanqing said: "If you call me Brother Yanqing, then I will give this thing to this little girl." ”

Biyin glanced at Ruo'er, sighed helplessly, and said, "My name is... My name is ...... I'm tired of green brother... Brother ......" Biyin's voice is getting smaller and smaller, and her face is getting redder and redder. When these last words were spoken, she burst into tears.

Chai Yanqing threw the Nine Rings to Ruo'er, and then happily covered his stomach and laughed, rolling all over the ground. Biyin buried her face in her lap and choked up in a low voice, "I... How did I get entangled with you? ”

Suddenly, I only heard one person: "Who is molesting my girl?"

Chai Yanqing was stunned for a moment, hurriedly turned over and sat up, he said, "Good girl, you're looking for trouble." I'm leaving, I'll see you next time. ”

Chai Yanqing ran from the path, and as soon as he walked on his front foot, Dong Ping walked over from the other side.

Biyin just got up hurriedly, saluted, and said, "Good horse." ”

Dong Ping smiled and said, "I'm good, but you're not good, who came to bully you?"

Before Biyin could speak, Ruo'er shook the nine rings in her hand and said with a smile: "It's this one who bullied Sister Biyin." ”

Dong Ping took the Nine Links and looked at it, then handed it to Ruo'er, and said, "This thing, I will solve it when I am three years old." ”

Ruo'er covered her mouth and asked in disbelief, "Really?"

Dong Ping smiled: "Fake, I'm still urinating on the kang when I'm three years old, how can I solve this." ”

Hearing this, even if she was afraid of Dong Ping's Biyin in her heart, she couldn't help but burst into tears, she said: "Master Ma, what do you have to do when you come over?" Dong Ping said: "I don't have any instructions, just come and tell Ruo'er that Lord Tiezhu has a letter, saying that he will come back in the next two days." ”

When Ruo'er heard this, she jumped up from the stone at once, and she asked with surprise on her face, "Really?"

Dong Ping smiled: "Really." ”

At this time, a family yard ran over with a panicked face and said, "Master Horse, something is wrong!"

Dong Ping frowned slightly and said, "What's wrong?"

The courtyard said: "There is a little girl in the house." ”

Dong Ping smiled and said, "There is a little girl, why did you scare you like this, could it be that the little girl was too ugly?"

Jiayuan shook his head and said: "It's not ugly, the little girl gave birth to a water spirit, just like the person who came out of the painting." But... But that little girl is not disrespectful!"

"Oh?"

The courtyard hesitated for a long time before saying, "She, she said that she is the grandmother of Master Ma and Uncle Lin!"

Hearing this, Biyin and Ruo'er were startled. Dong Ping didn't care much, he smiled: "It's a good thing, it's a good thing." It's been so long since Lin'an, and there are always relatives who come to visit the door. Go and tell the kitchen to prepare a table of meals for my grandmother. ”

The family courtyard was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head helplessly, and said in his heart that this horse master must have a problem with his brain.

Dong Ping pondered in his heart: "Could it be that Lu Zhu'er's girl is here, she likes to joke with me the most." ”

Horse House, inside the hall

A stunningly beautiful girl in a crimson Luo shirt was sitting cross-legged on the Taishi chair. The cuckoo kept saying beside her: "Little sister, when the master of the horse comes, you have to talk well, he has a bad temper, if I hear you insult him, I don't have your good fruit to eat." ”

The girl didn't raise her eyelids, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Hmph, Xiao Nizi also has no rules, do you talk to grandma like this?"

The cuckoo couldn't help but laugh and said, "You, you speak in a milky voice." ”

Before the cuckoo could finish speaking, a few rough laughter were heard: "Okay! I, Lin Sanchuan, want to see who will be my grandmother!"

As soon as Lin Sanchuan entered the house and saw the girl, he was stunned, he frowned and said, "Sister Juan'er, which one wants to be my grandmother?"

Du Juan smiled and said: "It's this girl, Brother Lin, let's see, is this girl an old friend of you and Gongzi?"

Lin Sanchuan looked the girl up and down for a long time, shook his head and said, "I don't know, I haven't seen it." ”

The girl smiled coldly, and shouted: "Grandson, when you see grandma, don't kneel down yet!"

Lin Sanchuan couldn't cry or laugh, he said: "Little girl, are you short of money to spend? Seeing the magnanimity of this mansion, you want to come in and ask for some silver? Hey, then you have come to the right place." My son-in-law has always been kind and generous, especially to good-looking girls, and he is even more generous......"

Lin Sanchuan didn't say a word, and was suddenly startled. The teacup that Ben was at the girl's table, somehow, flew towards him in a hurry. Lin Sanchuan's face changed, and he took a breath of true qi when he landed, and immediately pushed his palms straight forward. only heard a muffled sound of "pop", and the teacup hit Lin Sanchuan's palm. Lin Sanchuan only felt that his palm was shaken, and secretly said in his heart that this girl was really not simple.

But this is not the end, the teacup hit Lin Sanchuan's palm, and it didn't fall to the ground, but stuck to Lin Sanchuan's palm. Lin Sanchuan felt the true qi surging on the teacup, and he was really shocked. Just this small teacup has more than forty entangled, but orderly true qi. These more than forty true qi flowed repeatedly, and it was like a big hand holding Lin Sanchuan's wrist.

Lin Sanchuan's luck resisted, and suddenly, the tea bowl shattered, and Lin Sanchuan's body couldn't help but lean forward, and he was about to fall to the ground.

The girl smiled slightly, and floated up.

The cuckoo looked at the girl's shocking posture, and was shocked, and grew her mouth in surprise. The girl pressed Lin Sanchuan's shoulder, and Lin Sanchuan's action of falling to the ground also stopped. Lin Sanchuan was about to hug his fists and thank him, but he saw the girl smile weirdly.

The girl pressed her palm, and Lin Sanchuan only felt that a thousand mountains pressed on his shoulders. He screamed, and then bent his legs, and with a "bang", he fell to his knees.

The girl smiled, she patted Lin Sanchuan's cheek, and said: "Good grandson, as soon as I see my grandmother, I will give such a big gift, and I am really filial, and it is not in vain grandma, I have endured a lot of hardships, and I have been looking for you for thousands of miles." ”

Lin Sanchuan's teeth trembled, and his angular face turned into a red ball.
