Nightwatcher

I only hope that the child is stupid and reckless, free from disasters and troubles, until Gongqing hisses, with a poisonous mouth.

The meaning of this poem is that the poet feels that he is too smart and has been wasted his life. If you are a stupid person, you can become a minister without disaster.

This is to satirize the civil and military, princes and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty as brainless idiots.

The surrounding officials looked at each other, not to mention how weird their faces were. They came to see Sun Shangshu make a joke, and they stabbed him in the back unexpectedly.

Not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

"The Sangbo Case: A Gift to Sun Shangshu" He was mocking me for being stupid, mocking me for shooting myself in the foot. He wanted to nail my name to the pillar of shame. .

The most noble pursuit of scholars is to be famous in history, which is more attractive to them than teaching and educating people. But at the same time, as much as they desire to be famous in history, they are as afraid of being infamous for a long time.

How can you bear this?

This is unbearable.

"Come on, take this dog down for me, take it down!!!" Sun Shangshu trembled angrily, his face flushed red.

Because of his presumptuous assertion, he attempted to kill Xu Qi'an, the officer in charge of the beating, which led to the follow-up of the Sangbo case. Originally, I felt remorseful and wanted to overturn the table, but at this time, the most unbearable thing was to add insult to injury.

As for Xu Qi'an's poem, what falls is not a stone, but a mountain. Even a veteran official like Sun Shangshu's mentality exploded.

People from the Ministry of Punishment rushed forward in unison, wanting to arrest Xu Qi'an outside the imperial city.

"Lord Sun, calm down." Wei Yuan's calm and gentle voice stopped the angry members of the Ministry of Punishment.

The big Tsing Yi walked over unhurriedly and stood in front of Xu Qi'an.

"Wei Yuan, this son slandered me in public, insulted a minister, and was exiled according to the law." The Minister of Punishment held back his anger and said word by word:

"Today, even if it's you, you can't keep him."

"Slandering Shangshu is indeed a serious crime." Wei Yuan stared at Xu Qi'an sternly, and just when everyone thought he was going to scold the outspoken little Tongluo, they saw him looking at Sun Shangshu seriously and said: "It's not a big deal to tell the truth." slander."

"You..." Sun Shangshu shook his body, pointing at Wei Yuan with trembling fingers.

Wei Yuan smiled, turned and left. Xu Qi'an frantically followed behind his father, and escaped from the encirclement of the punishment department.

After walking a few steps, he stopped again, turned around and shouted: "Congratulations Sun Shangshu, the name is passed on to the world, and the scholars are famous."

Sun Shangshu was stunned, and after a few seconds, he couldn't catch his breath, and passed out stiffly.

"Master Shangshu, Lord Shangshu" everyone in the Criminal Department panicked.

Back at the yamen, Xu Qi'an followed Wei Yuan into the Haoqi Building, and poured tea for Wei Yuan and the two Jin Gongs attentively.

"Wei Gong, there are a few things I can't understand." Xu Qi'an asked for advice.

Wei Yuan is a conspirator and a wise man, it's better to ask for advice first than to figure it out by yourself. It's like asking the teacher if you have a problem in school, it is convenient and fast.

"Why does Your Majesty ask the Ministry of Criminal Justice to hear this case?" Wei Yuan held his teacup and smiled faintly.

"Talent in the world is one stone, Duke Wei alone gets eight, and Yunlu Academy and I share one." Xu Qi'an flattered him.

"Pfft..." Jiang Luzhong took a mouthful of tea and sprayed it out.

The corner of Yang Yan's mouth twitched.

The faint smile on the corner of Wei Yuan's mouth widened rapidly, obviously it was very beneficial to Xu Qi'an's flattery.

Scholars are like this, you praise him: Fuck you, old iron 666. He doesn't care about you.

But it doesn't mean that scholars don't like to be flattered, it just needs a different way, Xu Qi'an's flattery is very precise, in the way that scholars like, he flattered Wei Yuan comfortably.

Wei Yuan is a very proud scholar.

"Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites is a member of the Royal Party. If it is handed over to the watchman for trial, a large number of Royal Party members will be implicated." Wei Yuan said.

At that time, the court party will be out of balance. One or two dominance is not what Emperor Yuan Jing wants to see, it will hinder his control of the court situation, especially when he has been practicing Taoism all the year round, even if the royal party colludes with the demon clan, Sangbo was blown up, and the old ancestor's dharma image was blown up, but compared to his own power, what is the old ancestor worth? Xu Qi'an analyzed and extracted the core content from Wei Yuan's words.

As a result, his impression of Emperor Yuan Jing was slightly worse.

Emperor Yuan Jing may be a superb emperor, but he is not a good emperor. Pseudo-historian Xu Qi'an divides the emperor into three ranks: Ming Jun, Yong Jun, and Faint Jun.

Mingjun is a good emperor who can make people have enough food and clothing.

Yongjun is an emperor who has done nothing and has not done anything great. Most emperors in history belong to this category. In fact, for the common people, a mediocre ruler who does not disturb the people is already a wise ruler.

A Hunjun is an emperor who is close to his villains and far away from his virtuous ministers. He usually makes a mess of the court and the country.

Why not include the tyrant among them, that is because the first three may be tyrants.

In Xu Qi'an's eyes, Emperor Yuan Jing was a fool, because as an emperor, he only had his own power and status in his eyes. The current chaotic situation of factional struggles in the court was actually caused by Emperor Yuan Jing.

He practiced Taoism and ignored government affairs, so he needed the chaotic court situation to stabilize his position. Otherwise it is easy to be emptied.

"One more thing, I can't figure out why the Minister of Rites didn't kill Zhou Chixiong." Xu Qi'an said.

I thought that it must be the policeman who came to interrogate the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and I will ask again at that time, but I didn't expect Emperor Yuan Jing to be so handsome.

Wei Yuan shook his head: "Don't worry about these small issues, the Sangbo case has come to an end. Your Majesty didn't mention your matter, which means it has already been exposed."

Xu Qi'an laughed sincerely, and immediately said: "I plan to invite my colleagues who are investigating and handling the case to go to the Jiaofang Division for a drink, but there is no money. Please ask Wei Gong to allocate money."

It's like the company has completed a performance, and everyone goes to a restaurant for dinner, of course the company will pay for it.

Wei Yuan glanced at him: "Get lost."

After driving Xu Qi'an away, Wei Yuan pondered for a moment, and said: "Yang Yan, you give him two hundred taels of silver, it should be a reward from the yamen."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Jiang Luzhong and Yang Yan: "You two can go together."

Jiang Luzhong shook his head again and again: "Wei Gong, I don't want to go to a place like Jiaofangsi."

Yang Yan also shook his head.

Wei Yuan didn't force it, and drank tea leisurely: "With him present, I guess there will be many courtesans accompanying him."

As night fell, the Jiaofang Division was brightly lit, and the sound of silk, bamboo and wind music echoed melodiously.

Yingmei Xiaoge, floating incense and playing the piano, Ming Yan performing dances, and Xiaoya acting as the commander, it is a lively scene.

Yang Yan and Jiang Luzhong were surrounded by a charming oiran to accompany the wine, Xu Qi'an raised his glass and said with a smile: "Everyone, don't be cautious, you should eat and drink."

Tongluo and Yingong were still a little uncomfortable at first, after all, there were two golden gongs present, which put them under a lot of pressure.

But Jiang Lvzhong is a veteran of the wine shop, he knows how to liven up the atmosphere, he keeps toasting, and he can even speak nasty words, which is completely different from when he was on duty.

Gradually, the silver and copper gongs were let go.

There were only two serious people on the court, Yang Yan and Li Yuchun, who didn't look like they were here for whoring at all.

"The two of you are worthy of being superior and inferior, with the same virtue." Jiang Lvzhong joked with a smile.

"Jiang Jinluo's words are wrong," Xu Qi'an drank a lot of wine, a little lost, and boldly teased the two immediate bosses:

"Yang Jinluo is not a womanizer, and the boss is too prudish. There is still a difference between the two."

Now, the atmosphere on the field must be relaxed, everyone laughed, full of joyful air.

They drank until 2:30 p.m., when the banquet finally dissipated, Jiang Lvzhong left with the plump oiran in his arms, and Yang Yan returned to the yamen.

Li Yuchun also wanted to go back, but Xu Qi'an, Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao desperately stayed behind, stuffed him with a pretty little lady, and locked him in the house.

As the "host", Xu Qi'an entered Fuxiang's room after making arrangements for everyone.

"Why are there so many people here today?" Fu Xiang, who had just finished her bath, sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, wiping her black hair.

"It's to keep the girls in the yard in order." Xu Qi'an took off his robe and saber, turned and left the room:

"I'll be back later."

He pressed his footsteps and tiptoed towards Li Yuchun's room, and then saw Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao who were also sneaking around the corner.

Xu Qi'an signaled with his eyes: "Are you also here to listen to the corner?"

The two nodded and asked back with their eyes: "The boss is in the realm of refining gods, be careful and control your breathing."

Finally, I walked slowly to the window of Li Yuchun's room, and found that there was no sound of shaking the bed, and there was a conversation inside:

"My lord, I've finished washing my house, you go wash it."

"En." Li Yuchun replied in a low voice.

After a long time, after washing, a woman's voice came: "Master, the bed is warmed up, what are you lounging about in the room?"

"The furnishings in the room are too messy, messy, messy. Staying in this room, I feel like I'm sitting on pins and needles." Li Yuchun said heartbroken.

"Ah?" The woman was stunned, "It's already very tidy, my house cleans the house every day."

"No." Li Yuchun said seriously: "The teacups on the table should surround the teapot and keep a certain distance from the potted plants by the window. The stools placed two inches to the left are too cluttered. They should be placed in the same way as the teacups surrounding the teapot. The picture on the wall, shouldn’t it be hung in the center? The screen is crooked, I straightened it just now, and your embroidered shoes are not neatly arranged either.”

"Well, how can these be neat, who can do it?" The woman said softly: "Master, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Li Yuchun became unhappy when he heard it, and said in a deep voice: "Whoever says it can't be done, just watch and learn. I will teach you how to tidy up the house."

woman:"???"

Under the window, Xu Qi'an and the others were dumbfounded.

After tiptoeing away, Xu Qi'an was heartbroken: "The boss didn't get married?"

"We're married."

"Why do you feel like a beginner?" Xu Qi'an said.

"It's not the first time to come to Jiaofang Division." Song Tingfeng couldn't believe it. Although he has worked under Li Yuchun for many years, he doesn't know much about his private life.

Xu Qi'an thought for a while, and said: "Let's go back to the room later and make the commotion a little louder."

"Good idea." Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao thought this method was very good.

Therefore, the sound of the rocking bed in Yingmei Xiaoge tonight was extremely intense.
