The several corpses placed in front of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were quickly disposed of. The officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate all looked gloomy and were coming and going in a hurry. It was not possible to hear the noise and curses in the courtyard.

There was simmering anger in the Imperial Palace, and His Majesty in the palace had been cold-faced for several days. There was a turmoil inside and outside the capital, and the officials who had dealings with the southern clans were inevitably trembling, fearing that one day they would be used to discourage them.

In order to quell the increasingly outrageous rumors and to maintain the dignity of the royal family, Emperor Liang finally ordered a retrial of Zhang Mingjing's corruption case. However, what is very intriguing is that the official responsible for the matter appointed by Emperor Liang was not Lao

Mi Jian's left-du censor Yu Shouzhuo was Liang Rang, the right-du censor who had a close relationship with the Zhang family in the south.

When the news came out, there was another turmoil in the capital. The censor of Zuodu raised the table in public, but did not go to Liang Emperor to argue. The gossips who were worried about the world being in chaos were disappointed. It seems that His Majesty was just trying to show off, Gao Gao

Lift it up and put it down gently. But in order to stop the mouths of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Qing Dynasty, it is rumored that more than half of the officials this time will be selected from the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate who have been dismissed, and the other half have yet to be selected.

Yang Mei talked about the news in and outside the capital these days, and after speaking, she sighed: "Hey, I didn't expect that His Majesty would let Liang Yushi be the chief official. Huh, no one inside or outside the capital doesn't know that he is half the son-in-law of the Zhang family."

Chu Nan said: "This is to be expected. The emperor's mind is most concerned with balance. If the furious Lord Yu is asked to investigate, which of the nobles in the south can escape? Wouldn't that force them to unite?"

After hearing this, Yang Mei was a little unhappy and said: "Why does it always sound like a conspiracy when you talk about it? Can't you think of the good side?"

Chu Nannai said: "I'm just talking, you can just listen to it and don't take it seriously, okay?"

Yang Mei glared at Chu Nan and sighed: "If Mr. Yu persists a little longer, and there are support from University Scholar Su and others, we may not be able to take the lead and teach the Zhang family a lesson."

Chu Nan muttered: "Women are really short-sighted."

Yang Mei was furious, pointed at Chu Nan and said: "Why am I short-sighted? Since Mr. Yu dared to contradict His Majesty in the court last time, he may not be able to make His Majesty bow his head this time."

Chu Nan put down the tea cup in his hand and explained: "Last time, the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were exterminated. Rumors abounded inside and outside the capital, and public resentment boiled. Lord Yu just followed the trend and asked His Majesty to order a re-investigation of the Zhang Mingjing case. However,

This time, His Majesty has decided on the chief officer early. If Mr. Yu makes trouble again, he is ignorant of current affairs. Mr. Yu has been watching for decades, how can he not understand this truth?"

Yang Mei was stunned for a moment and muttered: "That makes some sense." Then she said without turning her lips: "Stop talking about your conspiracy theory. What we want now is how to get into the team that went to the south to investigate the case. When

When the imperial emissary comes back, his status will be completely different."

Chu Nan rubbed his brows and said softly: "This needs to be discussed in the long term, long term."

Yang Mei, however, solemnly clasped her fingers and said: "Look, the biggest topic in Daliang right now is the Qiu Wei and the Northern Expedition. You don't have a share in the Qiu Wei, and the Lao Shi Ting Yan Wu had to be a part-time imperial guard. The Northern Expedition is even more

Needless to say, you have no chance to practice and follow. Now this overturned case is your best chance to get ahead. If you miss it, you don’t know how long you will have to wait."

Chu Nan was not very interested. His biggest wish at the moment was to regain his strength, at least not to let Fei Ying get too far ahead of him. Chu Nan was not very interested and said: "Okay, you can figure it out."

Yang Mei was a little angry, but she finally suppressed her anger and asked, "Do you have any dealings with that Yushi Liang? Or do you have any friendship with Yushi Liang's son?"

Chu Nan shook his head and said: "I have never even met Liang Yushi. As for the young master of the Liang family, it seems that he is now Chu An's follower."

Yang Mei was a little disappointed and sighed: "I don't have any friendship with the young ladies from the Liang family, so now I'm in some trouble."

Chu Nan consoled him: "Didn't you say it last time? His Majesty is very particular about rewarding meritorious service. He hasn't decided on the personnel yet, so it may not be my share."

Yang Mei said sadly: "That's what I said, but who can understand His Majesty's thoughts clearly?" After saying that, he stood up and said, "No, sitting here and talking can't solve the problem. I'd better go back and ask my mother."

Chu Nan looked at Yang Mei who hurried out again, shook his head and returned to his hut. He took out the last medicine given by Fei Ying, pulled out the silver needle on his shoulder, carefully put the medicine in his mouth, closed his eyes and slowly

to calm down.

It is still on the peak of Fuso Mountain. In the morning, there will be clouds and mist. When the weather is clear, you can see the sea in the distance. Even the air on the mountain has a faint smell of sea water. The view is wide and the environment is excellent. It is a good place for self-cultivation.

place.

But an unexpected guest came to such a fairyland. A young man with a playful smile said something to a man in black who was hidden in the shade of a tree. Behind him, a little boy with a flat head who looked a little silly and silly pulled hard.

Looking at him, his face was full of anxiety but he was too anxious to speak.

The young man held a sword in his hand and kept pointing at the man in black. The man in black just shook his head and pointed in the direction of going down the mountain.

The young man was furious, jumped up and cursed, and even staggered the little boy behind him in excitement. Seeing that the man in black was motionless, the young man simply sat down opposite the man in black and kept mumbling.

I don’t know how long it took, and the young man couldn’t remember how many times he said the curse words he knew. The man in black seemed to be stimulated, and suddenly became angry. He held the long sword across his knees and stabbed the young man.

Come.

The young man was surprised and happy. After pulling out the long sword in his hand, he was shocked to find that he could no longer find the target. The sky was covered by the shadow of the sword. He could even faintly hear the roar of the sea in the distance, as if the scorching sun in the sky had disappeared.

Disappear.

The young man felt a chill in his chest. He lowered his head in disbelief and looked at the long sword that passed through his chest. The sword in the scabbard in his hand had only just been half drawn out.

The boy who was nailed to a wall seemed to have lost all his life, his face was gray and defeated, his head was scattered, and he looked miserable.

The boy with a flat head ran up in panic, holding the hilt of the sword with both hands, as if he was about to pull it out, but the man in black who sat down again not far away said something softly, and the boy with a flat head shivered.

He stepped aside full of sadness.

The man in black's kung fu was extremely high. Even if he penetrated the chest, the boy did not die immediately. Although the meridians of the boy's body were sealed and his whole body was full of anger, he miraculously did not die. He even had the opportunity to observe the insertion in the chest.

The long sword in front is just an unedged semi-finished sword embryo.

The young man's vitality was slowly draining away, and he became more and more like a corpse. Fortunately, there was a stubborn boy with a flat head who insisted on feeding him some liquid food every day, and then mumbled to himself.

The stubborn boy with a flat head was so stubborn that he never even thought of helping the miserable young man deal with his wounds. In the end, the poor boy who was nailed to the wall mustered up his last energy, looked at the young man sadly, and said

something.

Only then did the boy with the flat head suddenly realize. While blaming himself, he took out several small bottles that were stained red with blood from the young man's arms. He stuffed the medicine inside into the young man's mouth, drank another glass of water, and then was disappointed.

The young man looked at him gradually unconscious.

Maybe it was just a short while, or maybe it was a long time, until the man in black untied the young man's meridians, slapped the young man awake, and in the young man's hazy eyes, he pulled out the long sword.

.

A pool of weird-colored liquid splashed out from the young man's chest, as if he had lost his last trace of life. He slowly knelt down at the feet of the man in black and slowly lost consciousness.

Chu Nan slowly swallowed the medicine, but he didn't know when his eyes were filled with water vapor. He touched his aching chest, as if the feeling of being unable to die came back. That kneeling in a trance, not only lost

He has reached the state he has achieved through hard work, and has even lost his inner self-confidence and pride. He can only act like a lost dog, returning to the place he vowed he would never come back to in his lifetime, and learn to slowly get used to everyone's weird looks.

Chu Nan took a long breath, looked at the fingers of his right hand that were beating unconsciously, smiled to himself, took out a small dagger, made a cross-shaped wound on his shoulder, slowly took out a roll of white cloth, and wiped it

To bleed black and red blood.

Chu Nan got dressed, packed up her things, and looked at the door quietly. Yang Mei opened the door, looked straight at Chu Nan, and said without any emotion: "I asked clearly, I will go to the south to investigate the case this time without you.

share.”

Chu Nan lowered his head and said, "Not surprising."

Yang Mei continued: "His Majesty said that he wanted to select someone from the Chu family. Chu An was chosen, and my father-in-law had no objection."

Chu Nan sighed and said: "It's not surprising, Chu An is from the Ministry of Revenue, so it's just right to check this."

Yang Mei sneered and said sarcastically: "Yes, I am an important member of the Ministry of Household Affairs. I am a hundred times better than you, a loser who is just hanging around and waiting to die. You are so pathetic. I don't even bother to give you a chance."

Chu Nan asked with a smile: "Trash? You say I'm a trash?"

Yang Mei did not hesitate and sneered: "Yes, you are a waste. This is known to everyone in the Chu family at least, and it seems that you are willing to admit it. Humph, originally I still had feelings for you after the court martial arts performance.

You had such a small hope, but look what you did next, you were accused of taking drugs to compete for ranking, you were accused of not knowing how to get into agriculture, and you squandered that little bit of reputation."

Chu Nan shook his head and said nothing.

Yang Mei became even more angry and said angrily: "Is there something hidden? Then explain it, even if you go out and say a few words, but look what you have done, besides being clever and teasing a little girl like Lin'er, helping Wan

What else have you done to fulfill your thoughts as a little daughter? Why, do you think you are proud to have won the favor of that courtesan or that heroine of unknown origin? Or do you think I am vulgar, obsessed with business, and love power? I think I am noble and noble.

, you don’t bother to explain to a common person like me, but you don’t know that you have no noble capital at all! You are just a waste! Waste! Waste!”

Chu Nan looked calm, looked at Yang Mei who was full of anger, slapped her in the face, and said: "This is the first time someone has scolded me like this, and I also know that if I don't hit you, you will be even more disappointed."

Yang Mei didn't pretend to cover her face and cry out in pain, she just looked at Chu Nan coldly.

Chu Nan slapped himself hard and said calmly: "This is the last time I will slap you, and it will also be the last time you have the chance to scold me."

Chu Nan took out the long sword under the bed, wiped off the dust on it with his sleeve, and murmured: "There is only one Fei Ying. She understands me, but you can't. I will let you see my noble capital."

ps Thanks to classmate Li Zhao for his suggestion, the division of strength will be gradually refined.

Thanks to classmate Piao Xue Zhan Ying, I will pay attention to distinguish the place names when they appear later in the article.

Thank you Qingkong Wanli for your support and encouragement. Thank you. I hope everyone can point out the shortcomings and make more suggestions.
