The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

If high-ranking officials gather to drink in Bianliang, it must be golden, purple, silver and green, with a large number of crowns, because Bianliang Tokyo is the center of the Song Dynasty.

Although all the local officials and gentry sat at the banquet held by the governor of Jeju, none of them even wore scarlet clothes.

Yang Lin was walking through the city, and happened to pass by a slightly dilapidated street. The leader of the Jeju government office had an inexplicable look in his eyes, and said for no reason: "Although this place is close, it is a dirty place. Let's take a detour."

"I'm hungry. I don't want to go anywhere. When I came here, I climbed a few barren hills. Let's go here."

The other yamen servants looked distressed, but they still didn't dare to disobey after all, and they all looked at the companion who spoke first in surprise.

Lu Wang who was beside Yang Lin saw it, lowered his head and whispered something into Yang Lin's ear, Yang Lin whispered, "We are just passing by, don't mind your own business."

Lu Wang turned his head away, but his eyes couldn't stop looking at the Jeju official who pointed out the shortcut.

The yamen servant lowered his head, not daring to face the eyes of his companions, nor those around the imperial envoy.

After a while, when I entered this street, there were mostly beggars in tattered clothes on both sides, watching this team of brightly armored teams pass by the road with their hands in their sleeves, their eyes were dull like clay sculptures, and they were only seen occasionally With a movement, he raised his sleeve and quickly wiped away the snot that flowed to his mouth.

On both sides are some thatched grass on the ground, and there are many skinny people lying on it motionless, not knowing whether they are alive or alive.

This Jeju seems a bit poor.

Yang Lin beckoned, wanting to call the gentleman over, but unfortunately he lowered his head and didn't see it.

Lu Wang kept paying attention, so he went over and patted him on the shoulder, and shouted, "The imperial envoy called you, can't you hear me?"

The gentleman's eyes were wide open, as if he was very frightened, he came over and stammered in agreement: "What orders does the imperial envoy ask the villain to have?"

Yang Lin didn't ask directly, but he said as if chatting, "What's your name?"

"The villain, He Tao, is the arresting envoy of Sandu here, and was ordered by the governor to escort Yang Qin envoy."

He Tao?Yang Lin suddenly felt a little familiar. Isn't this the patrol inspector whose ears were cut off in Water Margin? I didn't expect there to be such an official in Jeju.

"Are these beggars from your Jeju government?"

"Imperial envoys have sharp eyes, these are the people of our Jeju Prefecture"

Speaking is an art, learned to benefit infinitely.

With just a few words, Yang Lin immediately understood that this petty official must know the inside story, but he was afraid that he would be in a nest with the governor, so he dared not report it.

This is not a place to talk, so Yang Lin didn't ask too many questions, and arrived at Li Chongwen's mansion in a short while.

Contrary to Yang Lin's expectation, in the dilapidated Jeju Mansion, this mansion looks extremely luxurious. The mansion stretches from the West Street to the South River Bank, covering an area of ​​[-] mu, with more than [-] rooms.

The houses in the mansion are well-defined and well-proportioned, with towering pavilions and extraordinary bearing.

Entering the main gate and the middle gate, you will face the living room with stone foundation and wooden pillars, square flower windows, partition doors, and large wood carvings of flowers and birds in the inner and outer rooms, which looks antique.

Yang Lin was stunned. Everyone said that Bianliang was a rich and noble place, and the outside was surrounded by poor countryside. I don't think this house is timid in the west city of Bianliang where there are many nobles.

Li Chongwen's whole family stood in front of the door, and smiled and said: "I pay my respects to the imperial envoy Yang, the imperial envoy has come all the way and worked hard."

In this era, adults are not used. The word "adult" is used to refer to one's own father.When general officials meet with Shangguan, those who are familiar with the favor of promotion will call Enxiang, otherwise most of them will be commensurate with their official positions.And unless it is a sacrifice to the heavens and ancestors or a great court meeting, or if you have to confess your sins and repent for committing a heinous crime, you will not kneel down.Even when they met the emperor, they bowed and bowed to salute.

Yang Lin folded his hands behind his back, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty Li hosted a banquet. I was sent here to Jeju. I saw singing and dancing everywhere, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. It's all thanks to Governor Li."

As soon as this remark came out, the brilliance in He Tao's eyes behind him gradually disappeared and became dimmed, but Li Chongwen was very happy, and said with a smile: "The imperial envoy is absurd, please come inside."

In the hall, there is a different scene. The room is as cool as autumn, with silver basins hanging high on the walls, filled with shaved ice to cool off the heat.

Sitting on the main seat was a handsome young man with a handsome appearance, a ruddy complexion, and wearing a scarlet suit. It was Yang Lin.

The hall is full of people, most of them are wearing brocade clothes, and they look like Futai gentry.These were all invited by Li Chongwen to accompany the guests.

Next to each of them was a beautiful woman with full makeup, wearing a spring shirt with narrow sleeves, fully exposing the beautiful curve of breast augmentation and slender waist.

Yang Lin has already concluded in his heart that this is a nest of corrupt officials, it seems that the Jeju government is rotten.

Originally, he just wanted to wait for Song Jiang to recruit some people, and then he would take them to Mizhou to reopen the Shibo Department.

But this fucking bastard, desperate for extravagance, remembering that he still has to run around, and this group of rotten people are comfortably emptying out the people of this country behind his back, Yang Lin is very angry.

From this point of view, those so-called ordinary people on the streets are also the masterpieces of these people.

The women who were arranged to serve Yang Lin were the two prettiest at the banquet. Seeing that the young imperial envoy champion was not attracted to her, she tore off her spring shirt unwillingly, revealing her breasts and charmingly rubbing his soft parts. left and right shoulders.

For a moment, Yang Lin really wanted to order all of them to be cut down, and then check them one by one. He can guarantee that there are not many unjust, false or wrongly decided cases.

The beauty served the wine, and the fine nectar entered his throat. Yang Lin swallowed it in one gulp. He only felt that the wine was bitter and could not taste anything else.

The whole house was pushing cups and changing cups, Yang Lin and the others pretended to be false, no one could see anything unusual.

Only the people around Yang Lin could see that his gaze was a little different, it seemed a little colder than usual.

Seeing him like this, Li Chongwen only thought that he had guessed it right. The strange behavior of this imperial envoy before was because he disliked him for not giving him a gift.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the beautiful maids who served them got up and left their seats gracefully.

Several servants moved in a wooden box, and when it was opened, it was a clay sculpture covered with red silk. Li Chongwen said: "Suwen Zhuangyuan is well versed in Taoism, and he won the first place in the palace examination. We Jeju officials and gentry will send you a Taoist king." Like, there are infinite mysteries inside."

Yang Lin smiled and said: "So, Yang is so disrespectful."

A group of people sent Yang Lin out of the Li Mansion, waved goodbye, and Yang Lin took them back to the restaurant.

In the bedroom of the restaurant, Yang Lin ordered someone to open the newly acquired golden nanmu treasure-embedded suitcase. Inside the box was a clay sculpture, which was strangely not a statue of the Taoist monarch.

"Nei Lio is so wonderful?" Yang Lin sneered, took out the simple knife from Lu Wang's arms, and chopped it off with the back of the knife.

With a bang, the clay sculpture broke, and gold, jewels and gemstones scattered all over the clay sculpture, shining like jewels and shining brightly.

Yang Lin said in a deep voice: "Lu Wang, go and bring me that little official named He Tao."

Chapter 64 Tian Gao Di Yuan Duo Jackals

At He Tao's home, a group of police officers were knocking on the door with open flames.

He Tao was sitting on the chair in the living room, his face was full of remorse, the lady was so frightened that she was shaking like chaff, holding her two sons and crying into a ball.

With a bang, he punched the wooden table, and He Tao cursed: "I blame me for being blind and blindfolded. This guy is a famous traitor in Bianliang, and I actually regarded him as a savior."

"Officer, what should we do?"

The knocking on the door outside became louder and louder, and someone started cursing at the former boss. He Tao led the imperial envoy down that street today, and Li Chongwen had been told by someone who cared about him. The latter was immediately furious and sent someone to arrest him. .

With a muffled sound, the door bolt snapped, and dozens of police officers rushed into the courtyard.

"He Zhizuo, you haven't slept so late, you are in good spirits, let's go, you know where to go, don't make it difficult for the brothers."
