The room was quiet, except for the occasional sound of the crisp clinking of porcelain when the emperor drank tea, and the rustling of Xu Lingyi's music.

Chen Bozhi stood there with his eyes lowered and his nose looking at his heart. He looked very submissive, but in his heart he was thinking about what happened today.

He was ordered to go to Beijing to report on his work. After talking about the water transportation, the emperor asked him to go to the inner study to talk. This was a supreme honor, so he naturally only did it. But unexpectedly, he met the man waiting here at the door of the study.

Marquis Yongping, what he didn't expect was that the emperor called out the name Marquis Yongping in such an affectionate manner, he was so excited at that time.

I have long heard that Marquis Yongping was domineering in the early years, and the emperor did not like it. Even the crown prince was alienated because of his many talents. Thanks to Marquis Yongping's astuteness, he knew how to judge the situation. In recent years, he has been cautious and did not dare to step too far.

He resigned on the grounds of illness, but this did not lead to a big mistake. Later, famous generals such as Fan Gangwei, Jiang Yunfei, Cheng Bicheng, and Li Wu were born. The aura of Yongping Marquis faded away little by little, and the emperor's resentment towards him was reduced.

It gradually disappeared.

Originally, one of them was a court official and the other was a foreign minister, one in the north and the other in the south. There was no handover. Unexpectedly, when his son went to Beijing, he was slapped in the face by Xu Sijin, the youngest son of Marquis Yongping. Not only that, Xu Sijin used cruel methods and followed him.

More than 30 people were killed, and more than 20 were seriously injured. They will need to be rehabilitated for at least a year or two. He was shocked when he heard this at the time, and his son was even more frightened. He fell ill when he returned to his apartment in Yanjing. To this day

I often wake up from nightmares

Thinking of the crown prince, he smashed an inkstone and decided to endure it. He invited his good friend Gu Yan in the Hanlin Academy to be a lobbyist. As long as the Xu family was willing to accompany him and he could step down, the matter would be over. No.

Thinking of it, Marquis Yongping pretended to be deaf and mute and didn't accept the move at all. But Xu Sijin became famous in one battle, and the descendants of the Yanjing family were vying to date him. During the Chinese New Year, there was an endless stream of people coming and going.

One general's success will destroy ten thousand bones.

Who Xu Sijin chooses to step on is his own business, but his son should never be dragged into it. If he shows up this time as an ugly man, how can his son have any face in Yanjing in the future?

walking on the ground

When Gu Yan wrote a letter to complain to him, it seemed that if he wanted to distinguish right from wrong, it would be impossible without the support of the emperor.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the emperor quickly.

The emperor's face was as heavy as water, and there was no clue.

His heart sank.

First, he called Marquis Yongping affectionately, and then let Marquis Yongping read the memorials from the imperial envoys. For the former, it was easier to say that Marquis Yongping was the emperor's brother-in-law, and they were close to each other when they were in the dormitory.

It’s customary. But looking at the imperial envoy’s memorial, isn’t it telling Marquis Yongping who is impeaching him?

The thought flashed past him, and he felt as if sweat was breaking out on his forehead.

Could it be that the emperor meant for them to reconcile?

Chen Bozhi's head spun rapidly.

If the emperor really meant this, then reconciling in that form would be a big problem.

The cost of soups and medicines can be waived, but Marquis Yongping has to come to visit the patient in person. And Xu Sijin, after he wants to apologize to his son, he can even come to Marquis Yongping with a generous gift to thank him, but there is no need to have a relationship. Who knows?

Which chord of the Emperor was touched?

Some things can be done slowly, such as seeing what the crown prince thinks of this uncle.

While Chen Bozhi was thinking about it, he had almost read Xu Lingyi's memorial.

The emperor suddenly spoke: What do you have to say?

I was frightened and Xu Lingyi immediately knelt down. I had also heard about what was mentioned in the memorial. I was shocked at that time and called Xu Sijin to ask. Brother Jin said that he heard about it in the teahouse at that time. He saw talented people bullying the singers.

The father and daughter had a conflict with someone, and I didn’t know who they were. After hearing this, I immediately sent someone to investigate. It was said that although Mr. Chen’s son was ill in bed, he was not beaten as mentioned in the memorial.

The crippled minister originally wanted to send a steward to Huai'an, but he thought of the ancestral law that foreign ministers were not allowed to make friends with close ministers, so he gave up the idea. He only sent someone to inquire whether any of the guards at Mr. Chen's residence in Yanjing were injured.

Things like this, none of the neighbors knew about it. Afterwards, no one from Mr. Chen’s family came to argue with him..., he said. His voice lowered, "I have been idle at home for more than ten years, and things like this have happened from time to time."

When the news came out, the emperor always made the decision for me, but I didn't take it to heart this time. My voice was a little sad.

It's a lot of confusing right and wrong.

Chen Bozhi smiled in his heart and looked towards the emperor.

The emperor actually looked unbearable.

He secretly yelled that it was not good.

Your Majesty, Chen Bozhi’s voice was soft and his tone was submissive. This matter turned out to be my fault. I thought that Marquis Yongping conquered the Miao territory and flattened the northwest, which was a great contribution to the development of the country. Such a trivial incident happened between the children, so I was not alarmed.

Marquis Yongping talked about Xu Lingyi's taboo things, reminding the Emperor of the unusualness of Xu Lingyi. He looked like a cat at the moment. In fact, it was because of the emperor's suppression. If the emperor stopped suppressing him, he might become a cat again.

A tiger.

After hearing such words, the emperor just wanted to help him, but he was afraid that he would be a little less thoughtful.

But he didn't say anything, Xu Lingyi said hastily: In this way, Xu Sijin really beat you kid, how about the memorial said that he was disabled? As he said this, his face became extremely ugly, is it true?

.

Chen Bozhi's face also became ugly.

Officials represent the face of the court. In addition to talent and learning, officials are also required to have good looks. If the son is disabled, it will be difficult for the son to become an official in the future. Even if he glares at the newly appointed commander, he may be deceived by someone with intentions.

It was used and eventually taken back. But if you say that your son is fine, doesn't it mean that those memorials are false, and they also admitted that your son molested the father and daughter who were prostitutes?

He glanced at the emperor quickly from the corner of his eye.

The emperor was listening intently.

Chen Bozhi did not dare to hesitate for a moment and said: The dog is not disabled at all.

That's good, that's good." Xu Lingyi interrupted him again. If he becomes disabled, his future will be ruined. Our brother Jin will not be able to escape the blame for his death. He looks very lucky.

The emperor also nodded: It’s good that the child is fine.

Chen Bozhi was not a simple person to be the governor of water transportation.

He knew that he could never mention the child again. Even if his son was still hiding in bed, if he continued to talk about it, it would only make people think that his son was useless. Only Xu Sijin worked hard and viciously.

I only have this son, and I have high hopes for him. In the past few years, I have been keeping him close to me. He has been with me all the time. People who have experienced wind and rain can be considered as people who have experienced wind and frost. The reason why the emperor gave his son the fourth title

Because Chen Bozhi had made great contributions to dredging the river, he implicitly mentioned this matter, hoping that the emperor would remember his contribution. Later, he would feel disgusted with Xu Sijin's actions, and was afraid of the guards around him.

There are more than thirty people, and more than twenty of them may not be able to take care of themselves in the future.

The emperor was stunned and looked towards Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi seemed to be very surprised.

There was such a thing. He immediately looked at the emperor with a very confused expression. When I called the child to ask about this matter, I asked the steward to investigate. The steward said that he had four young boys with him at the time.

, six nursing homes. Because after the New Year, there were a lot of things at home. Only one of the six nursing homes was very good, and the others were so-so. As for the divination servants who were with me, they all looked sixteen or seventeen years old. Because I hired Brother Jin.

He hired a boxing and kicking master, who usually served him by the side, and also learned a few tricks from three to ten guards. The implication was that Chen Bozhi was exaggerating.

After a few rounds, Chen Bozhi had a deep understanding of Xu Lingyi's ability to see stitches. He had been on guard against his question for a long time. Hearing this, he calmly said: I also find it strange. These thirty people escorted Quanzi all the way to Yanjing.

.There has never been any suggestion that there is such a master in the Xu family. According to Xu Lingyi, his skills are only so-so. It can be seen that the Xu family has seemed to be honest in the past ten years, but in fact it contains evil intentions.

Your Majesty, Xu Lingyi saluted the Emperor after hearing this. In my humble opinion, do you want to ask someone from Shuntian Prefecture or the Five Cities Military and Horse Division? When Brother Jin is here, Brother Jin is here.

He and the other boys had no injuries at all, and they said that the young master who was teasing the singer only had three or four guards with him. I thought it made sense, otherwise I wouldn't have believed what he said.

Now Mr. Chen said that your son is fine, and more than 20 of the guards who have been around for more than 30 years have been seriously injured. Could it be that he was wrong? We are not talking about the same thing at all. Chen Bozhi's heart was in a state of confusion, and his mouth was pursed.

He was so tight that he was afraid that he would get excited and say something inappropriate in front of the emperor. So after Xu Lingyi said one sentence, the scene suddenly stopped, and he said: Even if I am wrong, the Metropolitan Procuratorate should not be wrong.

The procuratorate is wrong, that is the crime of deceiving the emperor. The tone is harsh.

The emperor looked at Chen Bozhi who was shaking with anger and sighed secretly in his heart.

Everyone said that Xu Lingyi was a bit dull. That was because he rarely spoke now. In the past, when Empress Wu was here, he had left her speechless. Thinking of this, he also thought of what happened when he was in the dormitory.

For a period of time, he didn't dare to go out at all. With the support of his father-in-law, Xu Lingyi, who was only eight or nine years old, was responsible for all matters outside. It seems that from that time on, his words became more and more frequent.

However, he seemed to have gradually gotten used to Xu Lingyi's silence, otherwise, he would not have quietly wanted to solve the matter from the source as Xu Lingyi was dragged and attacked endlessly by these censors.

Now it seems that he is a bit self-defeating.

Chen Bozhi, since there is nothing wrong with the children of both families, I think this matter is over. The emperor frowned and looked very distressed. In a few days, I will issue an order to build the Baita River, so as not to be troubled by those imperial officials again.
