Ding Lu went back to the inn, tossing and turning, unable to sleep all night.

Looking back on the case before and after, Yu Yang's attitude at the beginning was to withdraw the case, but Xu Yan had to agree to start the trial because of pressure from Xu Yan. Afterwards, he and Meng Yuan investigated the scene of the case by themselves, and kept silent in the courtroom.Yu Yang didn't stand up until it was proved that "The Picture of Banishing Immortals" was a "murder weapon".

An emperor of an empire, abandoning the government and going to a distant country, just to punish a small villain who is not a good citizen but at least not up to the law, this is not Yu Yang's usual bearing and style.Taking a ten thousand step back, even if Yu Yang knew that An Yi had pretended to be his queen, it would be clean and tidy to give An Yi his death, so why bother.It's hard to explain emotionally and rationally.Why?

Waking up haggard the next day, the sky was still gray.Ding Lu arrived at Fulai Teahouse early, woke up the shopkeeper, ordered a cup of cheap tea, swallowed hard and beat the folding fan irritably, and refilled eight pots.It wasn't until noon that Chen You knocked on the door of his pavilion leisurely.

Ding Lu opened the door, and seeing Chen You's leisurely and leisurely appearance, he hastily greeted him, and the words "don't wait" appeared on his face. "Master Chen taught me to wait."

Chen You took off his cloak casually and put it on the screen beside him: "It's four o'clock in the afternoon, I came just in time. It's Mr. Ding who came too early, and let down the little official's wishes."

Ding Lu sat down in front of the chessboard: "What kind of mind do you have?"

Chen You raised the corner of his mouth slightly, walked to a hanging painting, tasted the words "peace and distance" on it, and said meaningfully: "I understand that Mr. is impatient, so I made an appointment to drink tea in the tea room, but I didn't know that the more you drank, the more irritable you became."

"When other people's eyebrows are impatient, my lord still has the leisure to adjust people's appetites, but you say that others are impatient, isn't it impetuous?" Ding Lu arranged the chess pieces on the chessboard neatly, and said impatiently, "Speak quickly if you have something to say. .”

Chen You sat opposite Ding Lu, moved the chess pieces on the chessboard, and said, "Let's go over the master's chess skills first."

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, when it comes to painting and ease, it is the first, and when it comes to calligraphy, Yu Yang is the number one, but when it comes to chess, Chen You dares to be the second, but no one dares to be the first.Although Ding Lu's chess skills are not bad, but playing against the top players, although it is an honor to lose, it is always boring.The most exciting thing is his various ways of death.

Ding Lu's heart was outside the chessboard, and he moved the pieces at will: "If you want to help me, don't beat around the bush, I'm not in the mood to accompany you."

"Playing chess is good at attacking and defending." Chen You stared at the chessboard, making every move carefully, but seeing the chess situation, his expression was slightly worried: "Even if I have the talent of Kongming to help the world, I will not help Ah Dou. You This chess skill is even more worrying than Ah Dou, and I have no talent in my generation, so I can't avoid it. Eat your car."

Ding Lu realized what Chen You meant, and started playing chess with all his heart.One win in seven games, completely defeated by Chen You.

The day is approaching Xishan, and it is the eighth game of chess in a blink of an eye.Chen You's "car" and "horse" approached Ding Lu's "general", but they could not win within two steps, but Chen You moved his "soldier" calmly.

In the six rounds that Chen You won before, Ding Lu was checkmate-dead with "pawns".

Ding Lu was puzzled: "Why don't you take me directly?"

"Xiaobing is a car across the river. You lost again." Chen You seemed tired, and yawned heavily. "Let's call it a day, Xiaoguan is going back." After saying that, he got up and stretched himself.

Ding Lu grabbed him: "You invited me but didn't tell me anything."

"I said it." Chen You put aside Ding Lu's hand and walked out.

Ding Lu stopped in front of him: "You and classmate An Yi, will you just watch him go to the guillotine?"

"Great writer, water can carry a boat and overturn it. I hope you understand the meaning of this sentence, Xiaoguan. If you don't understand, sit down and drink more tea. Xiaoer."

Xiaoer greeted him respectfully: "What's your order, guest officer?"

Chen You handed over a piece of silver to Xiao Er, and said with a smile: "This gentleman is only allowed to go when he is full. I have paid enough for the tea."

Xiao Er smiled and said, "Alright, sir, please go slowly."

Ding Lu scratched his head and sat back on the mat, staring at the chessboard in a daze: "The chariot will not check, the horse will not check, the soldiers will check, the soldiers will check, the soldiers will check..." Ding Lu muttered, suddenly his heart shook, "Could it be possible for me to slap the emperor directly?"

Ding Lu smiled miserably, paralyzed on the mat.

Chen You stepped out of the teahouse, followed by the little officials guarding the door.The little official's name is Cui Niao, and he is Chen You's little follower. He has just graduated from the Imperial Academy.

The first emperor set the rules, after Hanlinzi was sent out as a teacher, he was assigned to various ministries according to his specialties, starting from the grassroots.The ministers of various ministries will serve as their mentors, teaching by precept and example.

After the assessment that year, Chen You and Meng Yuan were assigned to the Ministry of Punishment, and Xu Yan was assigned to Dali Temple. It took seven or eight years of hard work to climb to the top of the official rank.According to An Yi's aptitude, she should be assigned to Taichang Temple to contribute to the royal music art, but she didn't know what kind of shit luck she had, she was selected by the prime minister and directly assigned to Shangshu Province.This is not surprising, what is strange is that Yu Yang actually allowed him, a moth, to "dominate" and thrive in the management center of the imperial court.

Shangshu Province governs the seven departments of engineering, punishment, military, rites, households, officials, and remonstrance. If An Yi studies hard, does not create disputes, and strives to be superior, at least he is Chen You's boss today.However, An Yi didn't stay in Shangshu Province for half a year, so he went to travel all over the world, saying "read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles", wasting a great opportunity and a great future.

In contrast, Mu Ying is in a "pit" left and right.Mu Ying yearned for the Ministry of War since she was a child, and determined to become the general of the empire. She just passed the assessment that year, but was hand-picked by Yu Yang to the imperial dining room. She was so sad that she cried for a whole month.It is thought that Yu Yang was caught by Yu Yang for bribing An Yi, which left a bad impression.But Yu Yang didn't suppress An Yi, what's the reason?

grown up?Are you relieved?The small conflicts in the past are all blown away with the wind, and they are written off, so let's not worry about the past?But why not let Mu Parrot go?

It's incredible.

Cui Niu Pi Dian Pi Dian walked behind Chen You, holding a thick notebook in his hand, and asked curiously: "My lord, why did you ask Mr. Ding to come out?"

Chen You turned around, raised his waist and said angrily, "How many times have I told you that you should be right with people and things when you know the truth."

Cui curled his mouth shut, and humbly admitted his mistake: "Remember."

Chen You turned around and continued walking: "Go and drink."

"Yes." Cui Niao received a training, learned to be good, brewed a good language, grasped the main point and asked, "I understand what your lord means. It is inconvenient for us to intervene in the Banshu case, but Mr. Ding is weak. It's His Majesty's will, what chance does he have of overturning the case?"

"hundred percent."

Cui Niao was already ignorant, and this will be even more unclear. "I hope the adults will explain."

Cui Niao is an honest person, he is Chen You's favorite student, although his qualifications are mediocre, but as long as he studies diligently, he will surely become a blockbuster in time, it is a good idea, Chen You never tells anyone.

If it were someone else, Chen Youding was unwilling to explain, but he still calmed down and said, "Then let me ask you, if An Yi is the real murderer, what will happen to him?"

Cui Niao said without hesitation: "The death penalty is unavoidable. If Fang Huai is not dead, with the power of an adult, he can probably be punished lightly. But Fang Huai is dead, and if he is not sentenced to the same death penalty as An Yi, it will be difficult to stop everyone. People will accuse us of bending the law for personal gain. , using power for personal gain."

Chen You: "What if the real culprit is Your Majesty?"

Cui Niao turned pale with shock, her scalp went numb for a moment, she subconsciously covered her mouth and whispered timidly: "My lord, you can't talk nonsense."

Chen You glanced at him: "How many times have I told you that in our business, you must not show your emotions or anger."

Cui Niao hurriedly covered his face with a book, and when he took it away, his face was numb and dead.

"Fuck, how many times have I told you that you have to be good at acting in our business!"

All of a sudden, Cui Niao's ridiculous face was completely changed.

Seeing Chen You's displeasure, Cui Niao hurriedly rubbed her stiff face, and thought seriously: "If Your Majesty kills someone, the crime is either big or small, and he won't die. Hit... the dragon robe?"

Cui Niao suddenly thought of something, and his hairs stood on end: "Didn't your lord imply that Mr. Ding should testify against His Majesty as the murderer? What's more, my lord, if my lord wants to save someone, we have to deal with the case, and teach... to instigate Mr. Ding to commit the following crimes." , is a first-class serious crime, if it is found out by Dali Temple, I... let’s say I will spend three years in prison! Even if Mr. Ding succeeds in overturning the case, His Majesty will not have to be punished much, and Mr. Ding will not have to..." Weakly made a gesture of raising and lowering the knife, "It must be dealt with in secret."

Chen You raised his eyebrows: "I taught you, but you didn't learn anything. You make me feel at ease, because no one bothers to be your enemy."

Cui Niao scratched his head aggrievedly: "Please enlighten me, my lord."

Chen You: "The way to be an official is to see what the eyes can't see. What did you see in the courtroom?"

Cui Niao thought about it carefully, and said: "Seeing that His Majesty has become an enemy of An Yi every step of the way, tit for tat."

"What about Master Xu, have you observed it?"

"Master Xu is assisting His Majesty..." Cui Niao seemed to have some ideas, not sure if he was right, he thought about it, "but Master Xu did not express his point of view from the beginning to the end."

Chen You: "Guess why he didn't make it clear?"

Reminder: "Perhaps Mr. Xu has not yet made up his mind, and is still inferring."

Chen You: "Xu Yan is more numerous than anyone else. At the beginning of the trial, he was always in charge of the overall situation, but later he became His Majesty, and he made side attacks. Have you thought about why?"

Cui Niao frowned tightly, not knowing what this detail could explain, and her face was so bewildered and tragic. "I beg your lord to clarify!"

"The hero is short of breath!" Chen You let out a long howl, slapped his chest again and again, and was almost out of breath: "Xu Yan has left the decision to His Majesty, and he has nothing to do with the case, right or wrong. If he signs the Words, in the final trial at the end of the year, if the case is found to be wrong, his position as Dali Siqing will be lost. Now this scene will repeat itself, and it doesn't matter who is the real murderer. Down with him, His Majesty can prove that a person died in vain. Do you understand?"

Cui Niao was convinced, bowed and said: "My lord's words are like enlightenment, and the students have benefited from them. But, Mr. Xu did not fall into this trap, why did your lord let Mr. Ding..."

"You don't need to know about that." Chen You went into a restaurant, ordered two jugs of wine, and drank big bowls, "We both had a good drink. After this case, I will no longer be your teacher." gone."

With a sore nose: "Where are you going, my lord?"

"Resign and go home to farm."

"why?"

"Once the Ban Shu case is found to be wrong, both me and the son-in-law will inevitably be punished. Let me demote you, I'm tired, it's better to clean up the fields. I can't take care of you as a teacher, and finally I will show you a direction. Let me ask you, come to court Wenwu Among all the officials, if I give you a hug on someone's thigh, who would you hug? Wait, you answer me first, are you with the Queen Mother or Your Majesty?"

"Naturally, it is with His Majesty. My lord, is there a difference between the Empress Dowager and Your Majesty?"

"The Empress Dowager and Your Majesty don't know each other, we can have the same relationship with Dali Temple, idiot." Chen You put his whole face on the mouth of the wine jar, and drank it thoroughly.

Reminding you to be lost, he said: "My lord, if you resign, I don't know who to talk to. None of my classmates can get such a caring teacher like you, so they envy me."

"My former teacher was also kind to me, but he also resigned halfway. You will hang out with An Yi from now on." Chen You half drunk and half awake.

"An Yi? Can he return the court? My lord, I really don't understand." Cui Niao had a natural splayed eyebrow, with a bitter look, this will be even more bitter, as if she was about to cry.

Chen You rolled his eyes and lay down on the table. "I want to beat An Yi twice, who stopped me, do you think I really want to beat him?"

"It's Your Majesty!"

Reminding him like Mao Sai suddenly realized, he grabbed Chen You's wrist and shook it nervously. "My lord, I seem to understand a little bit."

Chen You caressed Xiaoniao's head kindly, and said comfortingly: "Young children can be taught."
