Opening Words:

The white-bladed green edge frost is all over the field, and the rain is chilling. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The sword ascends to the view of the Jade Tower, Yu De Shen Huang Lao, and the water division method is Sumida.

I have heard that there are many chivalrous people in the world, and the cloth cup wine and food.

The afterimage of the light comes out of the sky, and after the pitiful future, there is no Guizhou sighing.

In the summer, the city of Beijing will sometimes usher in a heavy rain in the afternoon, and the rain is like a downpour, pouring away a lot of heat that permeates the streets and alleys.

In front of the Chengtian Gate, Lin Guangxian, the chief flag of the pro-army Jingwei, was anxiously pacing back and forth, and Lin Guangyu, the commander of the small flag nearby, also had an impatient expression, and the heavy rain did not seem to bring the slightest refreshment to the two pro-army officers who were guarding the palace.

"Click~click~click~" A rapid sound of horses' hooves came from the rain curtain, and Lin Guangxian was on the verge of amnesty, regardless of the torrential rain, he stepped forward with an arrow.

I saw that the person who came was wearing a silver flying fish suit, holding the reins of a horse in one hand and holding the embroidered spring knife on his waist with the other.

Lin Guangxian looked at the identity of the person who came, and bowed head-on, and said, "Lin Guang, the chief banner of the pro-army Jingwei, will see Lord Lu Bing first. ”

Lu Bing restrained the horse, threw the reins into Lin Guangyu's hand, picked up Lin Guangxian's arm, who was still half-kneeling on the ground, and walked straight towards the palace, saying as he walked: "Tell the truth about the situation in the palace." ”

Lin Guangxian's arm was dragged by Lu Bing, and he replied with a twisted face: "Back to the adult's words, the villain only heard that His Majesty summoned Yan Ge Lao into Yude Palace today, and then Xia Ge Lao went directly to the cabinet to take over the affairs of the first assistant, and Yan Ge Lao has not come out of Yude Palace until now. ”

Lu Bing put down Lin Guangxian's arm and shouted in a low voice: "Didn't Elder Xia Ge dismiss his official position for more than two years? Why did you enter the palace without making a sound? What did you do in the palace city?"

Lin Guangxian responded in a panic: "Back to the adult, the little one has just learned that Xia Ge always opened the door early this morning and entered the palace with the Fang Shi who offered Dan from Renshou Fang. ”

When Lu Bing heard this, he first sighed, and then said helplessly: "This is the emperor himself, but I can't complain about you." It seems that this time Xia Ge is getting back up, and the comer is not good!"

Lu Bing sighed, looked at Lin Guangxian, who was puzzled on the side, slowed down Fang Cai's hurried pace, and said slowly: "Now that Chen Qixue, the superintendent of Huguang Dao, has set his sights on us, he is Xia Yan's student, and Xia Yan may follow him to make a decision." You need to be careful. ”

Lin Guangxian froze when he heard Chen Qixue's three words, and said in a trembling voice: "But our Beizhen Fusi and Xia Ge Lao have no grudges!"

Lu Bing snorted coldly: "I heard that someone beat Chen Qixue who went to Beijing to report on his work in Bieyun Building in Mingyufang, isn't this a grudge?"

Lin Guangxian heard what Lu Bing said, his feet were weak, and he half-knelt down and pulled the tail end of Lu Bing's saber: "My lord, it is the small one who restrains his subordinates strictly, and the little one and his younger brother have prepared a generous gift and sent it to Lord Chen's mansion, and they have been forgiven by Lord Chen." I also ask the adults to be more lenient!"

Lu Bing frowned slightly, looked at the patrolling pro-army in the distance, helped up Lin Guangxian, who looked like a puddle of mud, and said, "Okay, I will keep your two brothers today, but Chen Qixue You must be appeased, otherwise I will severely punish you." It's going to be noon, you go to the pro-army Qianhu to sign the fold first, and go back to the North Division to wait, I don't want to make extraneous branches at this time. ”

Lin Guangxian was overjoyed when he heard this: "Lord Xie, Lord Xie! When the moon is profitable, the villain brothers and brothers will definitely practice it in person and share the worries of the adult!"

Lu Bing didn't say much about Lin Guangxian's "brave and loyal" appearance, but just waved his hand to signal him to leave. Unable to avoid the rain, he paced towards the inner court, constantly thinking about the emperor's unusual action this time:

Xia Yan had served as the first assistant for many years, shrewd and capable, and had a lot of achievements, but because he had always opposed the holy cultivation, Tianyan was angry and was dismissed. Yan Song is old and favored, and his work is quite reliable, and after squeezing out Xia Yan, he monopolizes the power of the cabinet, which is red and purple. However, why is the situation reversed today, and the emperor did not issue a holy decree and re-entered the cabinet with Xia Yanqi and took power again, what is the reason?

In the Yude Palace, when the emperor of heaven, Zhu Houxi, the emperor of Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, was wearing a Moqing robe, and was sitting on the futon in the center of the main hall. The futon is surrounded by gauze tents, the ground around it is inlaid with nine palace gossip, the curling honey sandalwood smoke floats out from the Xuande furnace, the thinning rain outside the window is dripping, and the royal hall is haunted by the feeling of heaven.

Jiajing's face is like a sympathetic feeling between heaven and man, his demeanor is like dust, and he is actually squinting his eyes at Yan Song who is standing on the side, Yan Song, who has passed the age of ear shun, is still full of eyes, with white eyebrows and white beard, his face is strange and thin, and the agarwood leaf crown on the top of his head adds a bit of fairy wind charm.

The eunuch of the capital governor broke the silence that had begun at noon, and hurriedly entered the palace to report: "Emperor Qiqi, the governor of Jinyi Wei Tongzhi, and Lu Bing, the governor of Beizhen Fusi, have arrived. ”

Jiajing didn't seem to hear the eunuch's words, so he got up and straightened the hem of the clothes he was wearing, sat down on the low seat outside the gossip array where he was participating in the cultivation, and took a sip of tea warmly, before he said to the eunuch who was waiting a little stiffly: "Pass!"

Lu Bing straightened out the flying fish suit, shook off the rain on his clothes, and followed the eunuch into the main hall, his eyes caught a glimpse of Yan Song standing aside, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and hurriedly bowed and greeted: "Minister Lu Bing sees Your Majesty." Long live my emperor, long live, long live. ”

However, after a long time, Lu Bing still didn't hear "Pingshen", and couldn't help but feel that today's situation was a little weird, but Xia Yan was not in the hall, Jiajing didn't need to hang himself, could it be that there seemed to be a deviation in the estimate, and he secretly felt a little trance.

"Weizhong, you've been standing here for a long time, but you understand what I mean?"

Yan Song heard that the emperor finally opened his mouth to talk to him, and hurriedly bowed down: "The minister is frightened, and he doesn't dare to speculate on the will of heaven with the arms of a villain." ”

Jiajing snorted coldly: "Don't dare? I ask you, why did Zeng Miao, the squire of the military department, stay in the middle without authorization, and do not vote for approval by the celebrant and supervisor?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Zeng Milling was responsible for the governor of Shanxi, but he repeatedly said that the military affairs of other provinces were overstepping his authority. Therefore, the minister should wait for the court to show His Majesty and cure the crime of Zeng Milling. Yan Song replied as if righteously.

"Well, I know this person, I have always had one saying and two saying two. If you look in the cabinet as the governor of Shanxi, he will naturally overstep his authority to report on the military affairs of Shaanxi and Gansu. But you left the middle music without a vote, and you disposed of it like this, Yan Ge Lao, are you also overstepping your authority?" Jiajing said in a kind tone, pointing out the reason for Yan Song's predicament today - the courtiers abused their power and disturbed the heavens.

Yan Song frowned, and bowed again with a solemn face: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know that the minister's thoughts have been involved in such a big crime, today I heard His Majesty's teachings like hearing the morning bell and dusk drum, deaf and deaf, Fang Juecai is shallow, and recently he feels old and weak, and he is not qualified for the important tasks entrusted by His Majesty." Please have mercy on Your Majesty, begging for bones. ”

Jiajing raised his eyebrows, took a sip of tea, and said indifferently: "Speaking of the bones of the old beggar of Yan Ge, I don't know how many officials will think it is a fool's dream. I am not sure, you have made great contributions to the country, last year you presided over the Yellow River berm, this year's rainy season is coming, people and fields are healthy, and everything you do is in your eyes. However, you are indeed old and need to take a break, so it is always a little inappropriate to let an old man do things. Now that Xia Gongjin has re-entered the cabinet and resumed his auxiliary duties, you can rest for a while. ”

"Minister, thank you, Lord Longen. Long live my emperor, long live, long live. Yan Song was not sad or happy when he heard Jiajing's answer, and replied indifferently, "The minister retired, and when he went home, he must think about it behind closed doors and follow His Majesty's teachings." ”

"There you go. Jiajing waved his hand indifferently.

After Yan Song withdrew from the hall, Jiajing took out a piece of music from his sleeve and threw it to Lu Bing: "Take a look for yourself." ”

Lu Bing carefully picked up the song that was thrown on the ground and opened it, and after looking at a few lines, he felt a chill seep out of the ground, straight to every gap in his spine, but the more he looked back, Lu Bing felt that someone had fished him up from the winter ice cellar and wrapped it in a warm quilt layer by layer.

The content of the song is actually very simple, Huguang Dao supervised the imperial history Chen Qixue impeached Lu Bing for violating the ban on buying and selling human beings, privately setting up gambling houses, and beating up court officials with dense martial arts people. After reading the full text of the recital, Lu Bing's heart was already settled, and he understood that Jiajing would not even pick it up high today, put it down gently, and would only blame it slightly, without much hindrance.

Closing the song, Lu Bing said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please send the imperial physician in the palace to diagnose Lord Chen Qixue, Lord Chen seems to be infected with madness, and the illness is not light. ”

"Hmm?hahaha!" Jiajing was also amused by Lu Bing's reply, raised his hand, and said, "Second brother, you haven't recovered from your madness?"

Lu Bing got up, patted the dust that came from nowhere in the rainy day, walked to Jiajing and returned Chen Qixue's hands to Jiajing, and said: "Big brother, I am really wronged that I can't be wronged anymore, the gambling house that makes up for the shortage of the inner library has only been open for half a year, and this is already the sixth impeachment excerpt." ”

"You can also say that when the court is a big man, Lu Binglu Wenming, the governor of Jinyi Wei, opened three gambling houses in Mingyufang, although it is for your eldest brother and me to share my worries, but what kind of system does it become on the bright side? This time you are still buying and selling people? Are you really not a human being for my people?" Jiajing snorted slightly.

Lu Bing smiled bitterly: "Alas, it's not those people who were captured from Tatar last autumn, all of them were unruly, and they were handed over to the North Division and had nowhere to deal with them. Killing them violated His Majesty's sanctity, and freed the soldiers who were sorry for the front-line garrison and the slaughtered border people, so they had to be sold as slaves from the black market, and let the big clans and the green forest people deal with them. ”

"Oh, well, this is a good way, these Tartars slaughtered my Ming people, killed and plundered countless people, I have also asked for help several times, but the gods told me not to indiscriminately kill and lose Yin Virtue, I have never had a headache for this matter. Jiajing's emotions were slightly excited.

Lu Bingzheng said: "The minister is determined to share the worries for His Majesty." ”

Jiajing took out a note from his sleeve again, put it on the coffee table, and pushed it to Lu Bing, who was sitting on the side "rudely": "Look at this secret fold handed over to me this morning, read it, and tell me what you think should be done." ”
