Chapter 154
"Also, Zhaohua has been with me for the past two years, and she is already seventeen. She is not from your palace. You don't have to wait until she is 25 or six. It's time to find her a son-in-law. Do you remember Help to pay attention to see if there are any unmarried young officials who are reliable in character and outstanding in talent and appearance. I can tell you that we will marry according to the flowers to be the first wife, and we must not be wronged."

"understood."

"Oh, by the way, I think of a cola thing here. Have you seen another Wulingchun Xiuxing? She used to marry a small boss of the Imperial College. She was resigned a few months ago and returned Huaihua Hutong. A while ago, I met several wives in the car, and I took turns playing the queer card in each house. I ran into her in the room of the wife of the right servant of the official department. According to my wife, she was originally in the south. The eldest uncle died and his concubine was newly dead, so he asked his younger brother to look for another concubine in the capital. As a result, the minister picked Xiu Xing and bought it at an agreed price. He said he would send it away at a certain date, but a few days later , actually changed his mind and said that he wanted to stay and be an aunt, and made the wife of the minister so angry, oh, don’t mention it! I’m only sorry for Xiu Xing. It is said that the elder brother of the minister is in Zhejiang. His wife died early , has always been a concubine in this room, and now she is dead, Xiu Xing was almost like a wife when she married, if she can hold on, the man may not necessarily remarry, it's pretty good, don't you think?"

"Ah."

Qingtian paused for a moment, then tugged at the half-worn padded jacket with the pattern of a year's scene on the shoulder, "Hey, let me ask you, the ones in Zhejiang are also called 'Yan Fa Dao', and the ones in Hubei are also called 'Yan Fa Dao'. They are all called 'Salt Way', so why is Sichuan called 'Yalt Tea Way'?"

With this question, Qi She no longer responded with "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm hmmmmhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh". ?”

Qingtian was stunned for a moment, and then he shoved him by the arm, "You little cripple, you are a smart monkey, and I have a big car ready to go around the bend."

Qi She put down the chess record, put one hand across the back of the chair and smiled, "Who is it?"

"What is it called Yu Younian, who was born as a prison student, and donated a Daoist as an alternate in Sichuan. I heard that there was a case in the Yancha Dao there, and the Ministry of Officials had already decided to demote him to transfer. filled that gap."

"Who entrusted you?"

"It's not even mom."

Qingtian sat on a low stool in front of the Qishe chair, arched his legs, and put his hands on his knees.Qi She bent down and grabbed her hand, looked down at the pair of elves' black eyes, and said solemnly: "This salt and tea ceremony is a first-class job, if you really want to get a job, you have to pay a lot of money, so once you take office, you have to work harder. This is how the incumbent member of the Salt Tea Ceremony came here, colluding with salt merchants, stealing and cheating. How much money your mother promised you for this person, just make a false claim, and I will report to you according to the amount, don’t do these things It's something to get someone to handle."

Qingtian pouted his lips, his face full of displeasure, "You are too contemptuous of others, I am so light-hearted and shallow-sighted? From the time you started running to Huai Ya Tang, to the time I came to live in this garden, begging me to speak The person who delivered the note was eight hundred if not one thousand. When did I tell you once? But my mother asked me again and again today, saying that Die Xian and Dui Xia left, although they got two strokes at once. The redemption money, but there is only one Fengqin left in the yard. The three young ladies are too young to start business, so they want to raise some more money, so they simply sell another yard. It just so happens that the surname is Yu When I was looking for a way out in Beijing, my mother got on the line with him, and she insisted that I tell you something. I told her that it would definitely not work, but if I bring the word to you, I will have a clear conscience and come back another day That's it for her."

Seeing Qingtian's aggrieved appearance, Qi She has already softened her heart.Of course he knew that she had always kept her duty and never said a word on state affairs, so she must have made a lot of determination to buy an official for someone this time and hurt her face as soon as she came up. Also can't bear it.Then he put his hands around her shoulders with a smile, and said in a soft tone: "I'm really sorry, our Duan Xiaonan's first big business was lost with me, so I have to pay you something. What do you want? jewelry?"

Qingtian stared at him with fluttering eyes, then smiled sweetly, and tapped a finger between his eyebrows.

Qi She smiled immediately, leaned over, and pressed a kiss there like pressing a silver stamp.

Qingtian raised his head high and shook it.

"Not enough?" he asked.

She nodded, and then nodded her nose.

Qi She paid the price according to the price, and suddenly remembered something, and smiled quite strangely, "Hey, I have some good news for you. After the Chinese New Year, the number one scholar of your Qiao family was promoted again. In less than four years, he was promoted from the Ministry of Nine Grades of Rites. Wai Lang, a member of the fourth-rank household department from the government, can shoot faster than the bamboo shoots in March. How is it, I didn’t treat you badly, old man, okay?” Seeing the other party’s resentment, he just hecked, “Come on, come on. I'll pay you again, and you'll be satisfied if you lose everything." Just next to Qingtian's cheeks, Xiaoxinzi's voice came through the hard-board curtain——

"My lord, Steward Sun is asking to see me."

In the living room, housekeeper Sun Xiuda sat down and then stood up, stood up and sat down again.When the master finally stepped out from behind the screen and took his seat, he stood up abruptly, and then crumpled his back, panicked, "My lord, Eunuch Zhou has been arrested!"

Hearing this sentence, Qi She couldn't help being astonished, but her expression remained calm, "What's going on?"

The incident originated from the Yanjiu Festival.Yanjiu Festival, also known as Yanjiu or Yanqiu, falls on the nineteenth day of the first lunar month. According to legend, it is the birthday of Qiu Chuji, the founder of the Taoist Longmen sect. It is also the day when he first became a monk. Since the palace.Since there is a patriarch in all walks of life, the eunuchs chose this one who cut off the roots of right and wrong as their patriarch.Therefore, on this day every year, the Baiyun temple outside the west gate of the capital city, where Qiu Zhenren used to be in charge, will welcome a large number of people, except for pilgrims holding flower bouquets of coins, Taoist priests selling seal characters, and hawkers selling wine and sugar... All the mink pengs who visited the ancestral court together.As the number one eunuch next to the regent, Zhou Dun had a whole day off as usual, so he took a group of small eunuchs to Baiyun Temple to offer incense.After visiting, I met a beggar in the square.It's not surprising, because there is a tradition in the Yanjiu Festival called "meeting the gods"-Qiu Chu, who has become a fairy, has the opportunity to incarnate as a beggar or a blind old man.Therefore, everyone is willing to give alms. If the alms goes to Qiu Shenxian, even if it cannot ascend to heaven, it will be good to receive good luck. Some hooligans take this opportunity to pretend to cheat money.Zhou Dun didn't care about it, he gave alms all the way, and when he met this flower, he generously rewarded him with a sum of money.Who would have thought that this Huazi was very greedy, even asking for it twice was not enough, and Zhou Dun refused to give it any more, so that Huazi began to curse, full of ugly words such as "strangle the dog" and "cut off children and grandchildren".Zhou Dun was furious, and ordered people to fight on the spot. Who would have thought that the subordinate punched Huazi's head against a big rock in the chaos, and when Zhou Dun felt bad, he yelled to stop At that time, Hanako had been beaten to death.What is even more unexpected is that this Huazi is not an ordinary street rogue, but the second son of Zhu Weixiong, the supervisory censor of Shandong Province.

There are thirteen censors. Although they are named by local names, they are all Beijing officials.In addition to the censor's job of impeaching officials and evils, Shandong Dao also has the privileges of the inspection and punishment department, the imperial hospital, the governor's river, and the urging of five cities to arrest and arrest the robbers. , Five city soldiers and horses all have to buy it.This Zhu Weixiong has a foul and tough temper, and he has joined no less than a hundred people in his six years in office.However, his second son has a slight dementia. He is eighteen or nineteen years old and can't read a few words. He knows how to run and play like crazy all day long.This time it was also a whim, I pretended to be a beggar and went to Baiyun Temple to play the autumn wind, but I didn't expect that I would turn from looking for fun to looking for death.As soon as he heard that his son had an accident, Zhu Weixiong immediately went to the Bingma Division to report the case in person, staring at a deputy commander, locked Zhou Dun and a group of eunuchs who were listening to music in the restaurant, and threw them directly into the detention center at the dining table.

After Sun Xiuda finished his report, he asked for instructions: "Your Majesty, before the Criminal Division has issued an arrest warrant, do you want to get Duke Zhou out first?"

Qi She snorted, brushed her hands down her waist, got up from Chang'e Flying to the Moon's Seven Screens and went around again.

Sun Xiuda, who was left behind, was dumbfounded, so he had to pick up the air-conditioning that was also left behind, break it apart, crush it, analyze it carefully, and finally decided that the prince meant: take a fart.
