The bowl was not big, and when Jian Shi drank the third bowl, Xiong Daiying also asked for the second bowl. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Jian Yan sandwiched a piece of rice cake while looking at Xiong Daiying, a weird smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "It seems that Brother Xiong likes this sweet and sour mouth?"

Xiong Daiying nodded slightly.

Jian Yan said: "I remember that Lord Xiong is from Raozhou, he likes salty and spicy food, and Brother Xiong's taste is different from your father's...... You see, my taste is like that of my mother, and I love desserts. ”

Xiong Daiying's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he froze there for a long time, not knowing what to say.

Sensing that something was wrong, Chris stopped his pen and looked up.

Xiong Daiying quickly stood up, picked up the bowl of soup and fruit in front of her, and stammered, "It's all ...... It's all cold...... I'm going to make the aunt hot......"

After saying that, he turned around and went into the back kitchen.

Chris had never seen Xiong Daiying look so disoriented, so he slapped the notebook on the table angrily and asked, "If you don't mess with the master, just mess with Mao Daiying, what are you going to do?"

Jian Yan shrugged: "It's just nagging, why bother with it?"

"Talking?" Chris remembers hearing from the Phantom and Shadow siblings that the Shadow Guards were orphans without a father or mother. They were adopted, and they received strict training from an early age, and after the final test, they could officially join the Iron Buddha Hall to serve their lives. "Isn't Dai Ying an orphan?" she muttered to herself, her voice as soft as a mosquito.

Seeing her puzzled look, Jian Yan raised his eyebrows and asked, "I see that you have a good relationship with him, why don't you know that he has a father and a mother?"

"Even if I have a strong relationship with him, how can I know his background?" she continued, "I don't want to live if I serve my master in the palace and ask about everything?"

The sword shrugged.

Chris asked rhetorically, "Do you know Dai Ying's parents?"

Jian Yan shook his head and said, "The day before yesterday, we arrived at Donghua Gate at night and met the train of the previous dynasty. I saw him staring at an official sedan chair in a daze, and I thought it was strange, so I asked my subordinates to inquire, and the minister in the sedan chair was the official Kumamoto of the capital official, Lord Xiong! I thought it was interesting, so I found a way to check it again!"

Chris secretly said in his heart, the shadow guards of the Iron Buddha Hall are different from the other big inner shadow guards of the Imperial City Division, their information is extremely secret, how can the sword shop find out?

Chris tried to ask, "How did you find out?"

Jian Yan sneered, "Want to know?"

Chris nodded helplessly.

Jian Yan smiled sarcastically and said to her, "Why do you sound like you don't want to live now?"

"You ......"

"Don't be angry, let me tell you, it's not that hard......"

"What? You still want to make conditions?"

"Clever!" Jian Yan squinted at the notebook she put on the table, and said, "You let me see what you have drawn?

Chris rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "You still have to tell me, what have you found?"

"That's easy to say. ”

"Deal!"

Jian Yan said in a low voice: "Fan Lou, turn left on the top floor and turn left for the second room, listen to the Heavenly Pavilion Grand Shopkeeper of the Rain Pavilion!"

Hearing the words "Listening to the Rain Pavilion", Chris "sighed" in his heart, and said in his heart: Sure enough, the little uncle expected that this Listening to the Rain Pavilion who eats inside and out, the secrets of my Five Buddha Hall have also been sold to others!

"Listen to the song in the rain, and know everything in the world. Listening to Yuge, he really knows everything!" Although he was angry, he could only suppress the fire in his heart, Chris said this peacefully, Jian Yan looked at her for a long time with exploratory eyes, and she tried her best not to let Jian Yan's eyes see the chaotic thoughts churning in her heart. She hurriedly asked, "Tell me, what have you found?"

"Hehe, you call him Dai Ying every day, Dai Ying, you know that his real surname is Xiong, called Xiong Dai Ying!

Chris certainly knows that Dai Ying's surname is "Xiong", but he is not very clear about his relationship with Kumamoto. Although she had guessed a little bit from what Jian Yan had just said, she was still surprised.

"I didn't expect it!" Ken Shi continued, "When Kumamoto-sama was about to pass the year of the weak crown, he became a high school jinshi and became a military judge in Fuzhou, which can be described as a promising future. Who knew that not long after he took office, he secretly communicated with a Nanjiang barbarian girl and caused a romantic debt!"

"Nanjiang, barbarian girl?"

As soon as Chris heard Nanjiang, he remembered a person and an event. "A person" is naturally a big head, a small body, and a different Sanqi who is good at poisoning, he is a native of Nanjiang. "One thing" is that when she first arrived in the Song Dynasty, when she first went to Fanlou, got acquainted with Brother Cao, and bumped into a group of Nanjiang barbarians bullying and singing father and daughter, she suddenly remembered that Brother Chu defeated them with only one hat, and the events of a few months ago became vivid for some reason.

Jian Yan waved his hand in front of her eyes and asked, "Why are you in a daze?"

Chris came back to his senses and urged, "Keep talking!"

Jian Yan had no choice but to continue: "That girl had a secret knot and secretly gave birth to a child. In the end, the paper could not contain the fire, and it annoyed the local chiefs of the barbarians! The clan rules of their Nanjiang barbarian branch were very strict, and the women of the tribe were not allowed to secretly communicate with the Han men, otherwise they would be punished with death. The girl fled to the Fuzhou Prefecture with the child, but who knew that Lord Xiong only took the child in, but ordered someone to send the child's mother back. said that it was to appease the chief's anger, and he also privately sent a lot of silk corn to make amends!"

"What? The mother of the shadow ......"

"The whereabouts are unknown, life and death are unknown!" Jian Yan said, "My Great Song Dynasty also forbids border officials to intermarry with barbarians, Lord Xiong naturally knows this truth, if you want to develop in your career, how can you have such a stain? ”

Xiong Daiying was one of Chris's closest people in Da Song, and the more she heard about it, the more angry she became, and the hands spread out on the table gradually clenched into fists.

"This matter is not without an impact on Lord Xiong, he has not had good official luck since then, and he has always been a county order!" Jian Yan paused, and said in a long voice, "However, he came to work later, just as the so-called people above are easy to handle......"

"Someone's up there?"

Jian Yan raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart: It seems that the stinky boy really doesn't know anything.

"I didn't say when Lord Xiong hugged Han Xiangguo's thick legs. There are few numbers, but it is only said that Han Xianggong relied on the friendship of 'Han Fan' back then, and once again reused Kumamoto-sama. I checked it myself, and it turned out that Fan Gong was the prefect of Raozhou back then, and he had met Kumamoto, who was eleven years old. I heard that he is young, and the articles he has written are already outstanding, and they are deeply appreciated by Fan Gong!"

Who is this Fan Gong?

Fortunately, Chris was thinking in her heart, if she asked, I am afraid that Jian Yan will not only laugh off his big teeth, but will also drop his jaw in shock. In this Great Song Dynasty, who did not know who Fan Zhongyan was? I am afraid that no one in the Western Xia and Liao Kingdoms did not know his great name.

"Kumamoto-sama jumped several levels from Jiupin Zhi County in Jiande County and was successfully transferred to Beijing, which is also rare in the officialdom!"

Chris can be regarded as making a fuss, and the "Han Xianggong" in the mouth of the sword shop is the first seat of his Jade Buddha Hall, and the current minister Han Qi. And Han Qi has a relationship with the man named Fan Gong, probably because of this relationship, Kumamoto entered the Jade Buddha Hall, which may be promoted several levels in a row.

Speaking of which, after going around in a big circle, she realized that the "person" who "has someone on top" is none other than "herself"!

Ken sighed, "I can't guess why Kumamoto-sama sent his son to be a shadow guard! ”

"What's weird?"

"Generally as a shadow guard, you have to give up everything, not to mention your family's surname, but according to the news given by Yuge, it is clearly written that his name is indeed 'Xiong Daiying'! This is also extremely rare!"

Yes, everyone else is a red shadow, a refining shadow, a phantom...... There is no one with a surname. Chris never thought about this question and fell into deep thought for a moment.

At this time, Xiong Daiying walked out of the kitchen with a smile and a hot soup fruit.

If it weren't for his paleness, Chris would have thought he wasn't affected. She didn't dare to ask, just lowered her head and drank the soup fruit honestly.

Jian Xi didn't finish speaking, and said again: "Brother Xiong, there is no malice in mentioning this matter below...... Just wanted to give you a heads-up. ”

Xiong Daiying thought that Jian Shi was making fun of him, so he raised his head and glared angrily, but he saw that Jian Yan had a serious face and did not have the slightest intention of joking, so he couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Mention something?"

Jian Yan nodded and said softly: "No matter what you say, you can be regarded as a child of the clan." Even if you don't want to mention it, you don't want to think about it, but it's in your blood, engraved in your bones...... Presumably, no matter how much you want to fit in, I'm afraid you'll still be excluded in the shadow guard, right?"

Xiong Daiying was silent, and the hands that were placed under the table couldn't help but clench tightly, because they were too hard, and their nails were white.

"As the saying goes, people go to high places and water flows to low places, don't you want to be justified and recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors?"

"I ......"

Chris interrupted them and said to the sword, "You said to mention something, but what is the best way?"

Jian Yan said: "It's not a good idea, but there is a good opportunity right now!"

"What chance?"

"Han Xianggong's mountain envoy has expired again, and I see that the current situation in the DPRK is about to undergo a earth-shaking change! This may become an opportunity for Brother Xiong to return to his father's family!"

Chris couldn't understand it, and asked three times in a row: "What do you mean by the expiration of the mountain envoy?"

Confucianism takes "filial piety first", and then gives rise to the traditional etiquette system of "Ding Wei". That is, when the parents die, the children must serve three years of mourning, during which they are not allowed to get married, and the children are officials, regardless of the size of the official position, they must leave their posts and return to their hometowns, and keep filial piety for their parents for 27 months, which is called "Ding Wei". I have to mention that Su Shi, who was famous in the Northern Song Dynasty, and his younger brother Su Zhe were not in the capital at this time, because they were "worried about Ding's father", resigned and returned to Shu, and kept filial piety for their father Su Xun.

The so-called mountain envoy refers to the temporary position set up by the imperial court for the funeral after the death of the emperor. First, the envoy of the mountain must be the prime minister of the previous dynasty, and second, after the funeral, the prime minister who served as the envoy of the mountain must resign and leave his post. To a certain extent, the "mountain envoy" can also be regarded as a derivative of "filial piety" and "Ding Wei". The death of the emperor is a loss of a country, and the prime minister, who is the best of the people, is naturally filial piety and mourning, and he is gone.

Jian Yan said: "Four years ago, Renzong was mourned, Han Xianggong was the envoy of the mountain tomb, after the fact, he did not resign from the phase on the grounds that 'Yingzong is still in the medicine', and continued to uphold the state affairs; four years later, Han Xianggong was the envoy of the mountain again, and the funeral of Yingzong was over, and the temple was returned...... Perhaps, there is only one way out of 'love'?"

"What the hell is love?" As soon as she asked, Chris saw Jian Yan show a look of disdain, and she quickly covered it up, "You also know that I have no father or mother, and I almost died when I was a child, but it's okay, my brother never forced me to study." I'm stupid, I don't read much, and I'm the way I am now, don't you look down on me?"

He glanced at Chris and said, "The court decreed that the ministers who served Ding Wei did not have to abandon their official duties and continue to stay in office, as long as they did not wear official clothes and plain clothes when they were in office, and when they encountered major events, they would be represented by the adjutants, which was called 'seizing affection'." Unless the official family decrees that Han Xianggong should be allowed to stay in the position of prime minister in accordance with the practice of 'seizing affection,' this is reasonable and reasonable! It's a pity that the official family will not let Han Xianggong go as they did with the emperor!"

After listening to Jianxi's explanation, Chris finally understood a little and asked, "You mean the prime minister is about to step down?"

Jian Shi nodded and said, "The wall fell and everyone pushed it, and the trees fell and scattered...... There have already been many ministers who have been impeached, saying that Han Xianggong is greedy for the phase and is reluctant to resign. I'm afraid it's only a matter of time before the officials force him to abdicate!"

I only know that the prime minister and the second prince are busy with the funeral, but I don't know that the prime minister must resign after the funeral, so won't the power of my Five Buddha Hall in the court be greatly weakened? If there is another prime minister, who knows if he will support me in sending troops to the north? Where is it good for the current queen mother's own person to be the prime minister, no, no, it seems that the situation is very grim.

From the establishment of the "mountain envoys" in the Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, a unique political phenomenon in Chinese history has emerged. The "Shanling System" has become a political tool through which the new emperor can kick out the former Zaifu with one kick, so that the court can change blood and complete the elimination of the old and the new; the ministers and henchmen can use it to eliminate dissidents and attack political opponents, and they can also win over the hearts and minds of the people, divide and disintegrate, and redraw factions.

Jian Yan said: "If Kumamoto-sama still wants to stay in the capital to serve, I'm afraid he will have to make plans early. ”

Is it to re-choose a big thick leg?

Jian Shi said to Xiong Daiying: "Brother Xiong, if you can help Kumamoto-sama at this critical time, he will definitely look at you differently. ”
