reborn monarch

The night was deep, and Xie Jiuyuan entered Xie's mansion.

At noon, Jin Yiwei escorted them all the way, and Feng Pei, magistrate of Yunba County, finally entered the capital. Xie Jiuyuan rushed to the Biezhi Pavilion to meet him, and had a long talk with him about the private salt case.

After that, Xie Jiuyuan entered the palace, and according to the long conversation, he and Emperor Qiyuan revised the details of the plan.Tomorrow is the day when the magistrate of Yunba and the prefect of Huai'an will confront each other. This matter has a bearing on the overall situation, so their attitude is very cautious.

When he entered the door, it was Wangcai who came to greet him. He had been quite old-fashioned in the past two years, but he didn't carry it at this time, just like when Xie Jiuyuan was caught by the old lady when he was doing things when he was young, he quietly reminded Xie Jiuyuan, "Old man Sitting in the hall, it seems that he is specially waiting for you to return home, and has something to say to you."

Xie Jiuyuan's face was tired, but he perked up when he heard the words, and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Mother, did you ask me about me today? Or did you hear any news?"

Wangcai shook his head and replied in a low voice: "I don't know. The old lady went to Xiuyun Temple as usual in the morning."

That was what he heard on the road, Xie Jiuyuan nodded, quickened his pace, and entered the hall.

Sitting on the side chair, Mrs. Xie smiled slightly when she saw Xie Jiuyuan coming in, and said distressedly, "It's so late, have you eaten yet?"

"Your Majesty gave me the meal." Xie Jiuyuan walked up to Mrs. Xie in a few steps and asked while kneeling, "Mother, why don't you rest?"

Mrs. Xie was silent, sighed softly, stroked his son's white hair with plain hands, after a while, curled the corners of his mouth, and said softly: "Tell me, what kind of person is he?"

Xie Jiuyuan was taken aback. Although his mother didn't say it clearly, the mother and son knew who this "he" was referring to.

"He", Xie Jiuyuan was rarely embarrassed in front of his mother. Even though he was very kind in his heart, he felt a little embarrassed to boast about his sweetheart to his mother, "He is a very good person."

Seeing his son like this, Mrs. Xie couldn't help laughing, "Where's your thick skin? Where's your talent? That's why you've got the word 'very good' for such a fairy-like character?"

Xie Jiuyuan himself thought it was funny, and after thinking about it again, it seemed that no answer was enough. After thinking about it, he finally said: "The Wen Party has been forming a party for personal gain all these years. In order to protect corrupt officials and powerful people, we must get rid of those who dare to tell the truth... ...He remembers every courtier who died due to party disputes."

In the previous life, Gu Zhen couldn't sleep at night because of these names, and often lit up a lamp to copy scriptures for them. Later, he sacrificed more and more, to the point where he couldn't sleep without the fragrance of Menghun.

To this day, Xie Jiuyuan still remembers the strong sweetness of Menghunxiang. The situation in this life has improved a lot. It is a great comfort to Xie Jiuyuan that Gu Zhen no longer needs to burn incense to sleep.

Hearing this, Mrs. Xie was taken aback, said aloud to Buddha, and sighed: "No wonder."

He is both a wise king and a confidant.There are soft intestines, but also iron bones.As a mother, she knows her son well. It's no wonder that her son likes such a person made in heaven.

"Go and rest." Mrs. Xie patted his son on the shoulder, "Tomorrow we have to go to court."

Xie Jiuyuan looked up at Mrs. Xie, "Mother, don't you say anything?"

How could it be possible that there is no struggle at all, it is just figured out, Xie avoids these things and just said: "I married your father back then, and I had no children for three years. Everyone in the clan persuaded your father to take a concubine and marry another. Your father said that he is looking for me, even if he is destined to have no children in this life, having a wife is enough."

She looked back at Xie Jiuyuan, and said firmly, "If you recognize it, mother will recognize it."

"Mother", Xie Jiuyuan was so moved that he couldn't speak, he bowed to the ground, stood up, and wanted to help Mrs. Xie back to the room.

"However", Xie's face showed curiosity, "Mother, I really want to meet my daughter-in-law who looks like a fairy."

Xie's "daughter-in-law" was so startled that Xie Jiuyuan almost couldn't stand still. He stopped, and seeing his mother's face was full of intentions, he smiled helplessly: "If there is a chance, I will take him back to the house. You want to cook and make a table?" Good food, he has been eating fast and praying to Buddha since he was a child, and he has never eaten anything made at home, so you feel sorry for him."

"Yo", Mrs. Xie was really distressed when she heard it, but on second thought, she looked at Xie Jiuyuan with admiration, "I have used the art of war on my mother."

Xie Jiuyuan just smiled and didn't argue.

As the night darkened, Xie's mansion became quiet, but Wen Jinli secretly left Wen's mansion and entered Xiguifang through the back door.

There was already a person waiting in the secret room. He was standing and looking at the calligraphy and painting. He was tall and straight, heroic and tall, with profound features and sharp edges and corners. The warm yellow candlelight could not soften his sharp face. A heroic young man.

Wen Jinli praised the word "good" in his heart, and became firmer in his decision, so his attitude became more respectful.

"The old minister has seen the son", Wen Jinli saluted.

As soon as Gu Lan raised her hand, she was majestic and natural, "You don't need to be polite."

Wen Jinli still needs to be tested, but Gu Lan is straight to the point: "Wen Xiang, the private salt case cannot be covered up, the emperor secretly protected the magistrate of Yunba County and entered Beijing, if Wen Xiang has the heart to cooperate, then find a way Recommending this son to handle the private salt case may be able to separate Wen Xiang or the person Wen Xiang wants to protect. If there is no cooperation, this son also gave the news, and Wen Xiang will remember to return this favor in the future. "

I didn't expect Gu Lan to have such a straightforward style. Wen Jinli thought about it. Gu Lan's ability to handle errands is obvious to all. In recent years, he has no errands to do. In order to guard against suspicion, if they cooperate...Wen Jinli smiled and asked: "If you want to cooperate, what the old minister wants is clear at a glance. I don't know what the son wants?"

A bit of resentment flashed across Gu Lan's face, she clenched her fist and said calmly: "This son has not been crowned yet."

It turned out that the children of the royal family can enter the imperial court justifiably after being crowned, instead of going to the Fengtian Hall to accompany them in the Fengtian Hall as they are now.

"Old minister understands." Wen Jinli stroked his beard and smiled very lovingly.

Gu Lan pretended to hide her expression, lowered her head to drink tea, and rolled her eyes at the ground.

From evening to court, the morning court of this day was destined to be uneasy since Feng Pei, magistrate of Xuanyunba County, Emperor Qiyuan, went to the palace.

Feng Pei went to Huai'an magistrate to cover up salt merchants producing and selling private salt, but Huai'an magistrate refused to admit it, saying that Feng Pei deliberately tarnished his reputation because he was wronged by him for the county affairs.

This remark was made out of nothing, which made Feng Pei's face flushed with anger, but because of Xie Jiuyuan's instruction, he could not tell the evidence in his hand for the time being. expected move.

He bent his knees and knelt heavily, expressing his feelings: "Your Majesty! The Wen Party is so dominant that the local people and officials suffer unspeakably! They formed cliques for private interests, fueled the powerful, Qingliu officials were demoted and even lost their lives. They can’t live and work in peace and contentment, and they are all in the pockets of the Wen Party.”

"The minister is not empty talk. He Jilai, the magistrate of Fengcheng County in Lu Province, was beaten to death by the Wen Party members because he refused to join forces with the local magistrate. He was exiled by the Governor of Yu Province for his 'convenience', and his wife and daughter were also kidnapped, Chen Ke crashed to death at the city gate, and his wife and daughter threw themselves into the lake to die after hearing the news!"

"Banban's crimes, piles of unjust cases, I can't remember more than a hundred, I hope your Majesty will learn from them!"

"Reporting the private salt case, I know that this trip may never come back, and I don't regret it. It's not a pity for me to die, but Your Majesty must not tolerate this gang of corrupt officials, disorderly officials and thieves, otherwise, my Great Chu will perish In the hands of the Wen Party! Your Majesty! The Wen Party endangers the country!"

Feng Pei's words shocked the whole hall.

First of all, of course, Feng Pei's courage is what surprised him. Secondly, everyone knows that the Wen Party is dominant, but these officials in the palace rarely have the opportunity to go to the local area. These cases are reported, at most there are only a few words, A magistrate of a certain county died of illness in his tenure, and a magistrate of a certain place broke the law and was exiled. It can be seen at a glance. After hearing these tragedies in detail at first, it is inevitable to be a little shocked.

Xie Jiuyuan and Gu Zhen couldn't understand Wen Dang's evil deeds very well, but at this time Xie Jiuyuan looked worriedly at Gu Zhen who was on the throne.

Zhuo Yuan was agitated when he heard it, and wanted to join the Wendang book after class, but was stopped by the officials around him.

In the dead silence, Wen Jinli fell to his knees with a thump, and cried out sadly: "Your Majesty has learned from you that I have devoted my whole life to the Great Chu. Fortunately, the late Emperor appreciated it, and I was honored by Your Majesty. I only repay you with all my heart, and all the courtiers are Your Majesty." My ministers, I dare not form cliques for personal gain, and I have never heard of any "literary party"! Please check it out, Your Majesty!"

After this long meal of tears, all the officials had a deeper understanding of Wen Xiang's face.

Gu Zhen knew very well that he would startle the snake, so he should comfort Wen Jinli at this time, and say a few words about "Wen Xiang has worked hard and made great achievements", but he didn't want to say a word.

Wen Jinli didn't wait for Emperor Qiyuan to go down the stairs, he was confused, and spoke again, this time with awe-inspiring righteousness, requesting the son to investigate the case thoroughly on behalf of His Majesty, and give him justice.

"Gu Lan."

Emperor Qi Yuan's voice was full of anger, it was so deep that it was scary.

Gu Lan came out and knelt down, "The minister is here."

Thunder's fury resounded through Fengtian Temple with a shout: "Check it out!"

"Yes!"

Withdrew from the court, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment avoided the sight of the Huai'an magistrate, and returned home in a hurry.

He was walking anxiously in the study, fearing and hating at the same time. Before, it was Wen Xiang who asked his daughter to marry his son, so he didn't ask Wen Chongde's opinion so he didn't yell around. In the end, his daughter couldn't get married, and Wen Xiang still refused. Has the face to vent his anger on himself.Clay figurines also have a three-point earth nature, so suspicions inevitably arose.

This time, the private salt case will inevitably find him. Seeing Wen Xiang's appearance, it reminded him of the incident with Mei Ziqi back then, and he couldn't help being afraid that he would also be abandoned by Wen Que.

The Wen Party will inevitably encounter a crisis this time, and the only one who stays out of the matter and is reused by His Majesty is Wen Chongde, who broke out of Wenfu because of his broken sleeves.

After thinking about it, he decided to go to Wen Chongde's mansion to see him regardless of the daylight.

Xie Jiuyuan placed Feng Pei in a safe place, and hurried back to Miyagi. Father-in-law Sanbao was sweating at the gate of Dongnuange. Seeing Xie Jiuyuan approaching, he wiped away his tears as if he had seen a savior, and urged, "Go in quickly! "

Seeing the Three Treasures like this, Xie Jiuyuan became even more anxious, and immediately pushed the door open to enter. What was more frightening than the mess all over the floor was Gu Zhen who was slashing wildly with a sword.

"Ah—" There were roars and sword marks.

He can endure, endure the misfortune of all the officials around him, endure the unjust imprisonment of loyal ministers, endure the burial of good generals in the battlefield, and cannot bear the sea and rivers being clear, the sun rising and the moon bright.

The fire of martyrdom in Fengtian Temple is not the fire of his Gu Zhen's karma. He is powerless to protect his ministers, powerless to protect the country, and powerless to protect the people.

He hates!

He hates Wen Jinli's cunning mouth, thick skin and greed for power, and Wen Chongde pretends to be crazy and sells fools to harm the people.

The curtain has been drawn for the fall, and he obviously endured until this time, but Feng Pei's words made him unable to hold back the magma of anger that had tormented him for two lifetimes, and he had no choice but to lose his temper and be maddened with grief.

The fire burned in his heart, as if he had returned to the Fengtian Temple of the 19 years in his previous life.

"Gu Zhen! Yuntang! Yuntang!"

Xie Jiuyuan snatched his sword from the air, hugged him and called his name, but Gu Zhen was stunned for a while, then focused his eyes on Xie Jiuyuan's face, and instantly rolled down a tear.

"Kuro."

He stroked Xie Jiuyuan's heart, and murmured, "I'm in pain, do you feel pain?"
