Cheng Enhou's Love History

On Po Wu, the weather was beautiful this day, and there was a moderate rain.

The sea water is transpiring and the air is moist, making a group of Yan soldiers who are celebrating the New Year in a different place very excited. Because there is not a drop of rain in Kyoto this season, it is so dry that it can dry a living person into a piece of dried meat.

Everyone then said that this is the God of Wealth borrowing the rain to send money to everyone, and I am afraid that it will be prosperous in the next year.

At this time, the Beihai Navy's large army had withdrawn, and those who remained were all unlucky people who were tired of the same situation and had no home to return to, so they had to have fun in bitterness.In addition, there is also Master Zheng Yue, who was left to take care of by Pei Jin on the grounds of his excellent medical skills, but in fact, he took revenge for his unconsciousness that he had no time or no time to use the same rule.

At the same time, he had been catching up on sleep for days, and slept in the dark after taking Zheng Lao's Anshen powder. You Heng couldn't stand it anymore, so he decided to pull him out to bask in the sun after the rain.

Not wanting to see him staring at an old document, You Heng glanced at it twice, and immediately laughed, "Is this what Mr. Zheng wanted? It's hard for him to recall these for you while wearing a spectacles, he It’s a doctor, not a general, if you want to know what Shaobao’s fighting style was like in the past few years, just tell me, it’s just a matter of spending a pot of good wine.”

The information I read at the same time was originally a favor.

Although Zheng Leshi is only a doctor, he is not lacking in heroism. He chatted about Pei Jin's past, but seeing that he didn't know all the mighty and domineering generals in the past, he couldn't help but sighed, and then volunteered.

"Before I'm too old and confused, I'll write it for you. It's a memoir. Except for the archives of the Ministry of War, this one has no semicolon. You should study it carefully. Young people should have a role model. refer to."

Waiting for the "materials" to get in hand, the same is watching with gusto.It is a man's nature to be interested in war, not to mention the people he is interested in. Following every decision to think about why Pei Jin made such a layout, he gradually became fascinated.

Being smashed by You Heng at the moment, there is nothing to hide at the same time. He smiled and said, "Don't you have something important to do? The letter should have arrived at the capital's Pei Mansion by now, right?"

You Heng was not very satisfied with his words, "You still don't feel at ease when I do things? Naturally, I follow the fastest pace, but if I don't tell Shaobao about this matter, I always feel that I don't feel at ease..."

At the same time, he waved his hand and comforted him, "You have to trust Governor Liao, he either has already planned to break the situation before he acts, or he will communicate with the third master himself first."

It's right to think about it, You Hengfang smiled relaxedly, "It's such a reason, but you don't want to show up, are you planning to do good deeds without leaving your name?"

At the same time, he blinked, "I'm afraid of some people who think our life is too uneasy."

A few men came in from the outside of the speaking room, carrying a wine jar, and the guards went up to meet them, and after a while they looked back to the other side of the room.

"What do you mean?" When You Heng saw the wine jar, his eyes straightened, "Would you like some meat tonight?"

At the same time, he patted him on the shoulder, walked out with a smile, and said to everyone, "I want it. You all have worked hard recently. It is worth remembering that we celebrate the New Year in a different place. Please have a good drink today." , and there are a few more rings of the hanging whip, turn around and put it up, and we will also welcome the God of Wealth."

Strictly abstaining from alcohol during the march, a group of bald boys held it for more than two months, and immediately cheered when they heard the news.

At the same time, with his hands behind his back, he smiled faintly, and a sense of guilt still passed through his heart.

At the same time, Kyoto is also lively and happy.

When I got up early in the morning, the Marquis of Cheng En put out a string of hanging whips first, and Li Mingxiu personally sent Pei Jin back to the private house, and watched the servants put away the things, Fang cupped his hands and smiled, "I wish the third master everything goes well this year, and more I hope that the third master will not have to go to war again this year."

Pei Jin nodded and said yes, and should smile lazily.After changing into a toga, I sat idle in the study for half a day. If I hadn't heard that Master Li came to the mansion to ask for an audience, I would have let my hair loose. How comfortable would I be?

That Li Zhenren's immortal character is already in his sixtieth year this year.This deity was originally the great eunuch in charge of the late emperor. During the late emperor's stay, the situation was very prosperous. Before the late emperor left, he retired and found a good place for himself-entered the Taoist school, or practiced according to the order, claiming to spend the rest of his life Praying for Yan, for the late emperor, and for the prosperity of the country and the people.

Seeing that there were more than half of the posts laid out on the desk, the old Taoist twirled his non-existent long beard and said with a smile, "Master Hou is so elegant, more comfortable than the poor Taoist, he seems to be getting more and more immortal. "

"No matter what, I don't dare to compare myself with a real person." Pei Jin smiled, invited him to drink tea, and held a flagon in his arms, taking a sip whenever he wanted to.

After looking at the copybook, Master Li looked at this unemployed person again. He still remembered that when Pei Jin was just emerging, Pei Jin was just a young man.It doesn't matter when he catches up, the right time, the right place, and the right people are indispensable, which made him what he is today.

However, prosperity must decline, which seems to be the norm in life.

"The real person hasn't entered the palace for many years, so it's time to teach the late emperor how to do it. I heard a while ago that you are going to travel for a while?"

"I'm just going around for a pretense, otherwise I'll be trapped under the red walls and green tiles for the rest of my life." Li Zhenren didn't lie in front of Pei Jin, and waved his hand with a smile, "This little thought, Lord Hou, don't expose it. Anyway, I can still get the pension money given by the court, but I don’t have a caring person around me, but fortunately, my little apprentice can still remember to visit me during the holidays.”

This is a typical saying of relying on the old and selling the old. The little apprentice he talked about is currently the second-largest figure in the eunuch's line, second only to Wang Liansheng.

Li Zhenren went on to say, "Maybe the case of Lord Hou is about to come to fruition recently. According to my little apprentice, it is still going on in this new year. His Majesty has received the cabinet members and so on. He only said that there is the latest evidence. Your Majesty." Originally, they didn't want to care about this, but they insisted on saying that the matter is too big and the judicial level is not enough, so there must be an explanation before the imperial court. Speaking of which, does Lord Hou know what new evidence there is?"

Pei Jin's eyelids twitched slightly. Although the soldiers came to block him, he had a way to prevaricate and was prepared to fight back, but he didn't plan to close the case so soon. To be honest, he really enjoyed such a leisurely life.

But if some people are desperate, he is also happy to accompany them.What's more, it's better to end it sooner, so he can see Tong Ze sooner.

"I don't know," Pei Jin spread his hands and smiled, "They said they asked me to assist in the investigation, but they haven't come to ask me, the client, for a question."

Li Zhenren snorted and didn't answer for a long while, but stretched his neck to look at the copybook on the desk, "The old man sees that Master Hou's calligraphy is getting better and better, and I still have a poster of going to Nanyang ten years ago by Master Hou." , but the current writing looks smoother and more relaxed, such a good post, the old man wants to be ashamed to ask for it to collect."

Reaching out without hitting the smiling person, the post was only a matter of signature, Pei Jin simply swiped it and stamped his private seal, "The real person doesn't dislike it, so I will ask you to give it as a gift, but my words are worthless, warriors Well, there is inevitably murder between the lines, and it has always been said that the hostility is too heavy."

Li Zhenren didn't think so, took it as if he had found a treasure, looked at it and said with a smile, "It's still an old habit, this word and that private seal, Lord Hou has never changed his original intention. The old man still remembers that both the late emperor and your father asked about it. Why do you have to skip that stroke? Master Hou once said that day, since you are cautious in your words and deeds, you should reduce yourself and remind yourself from time to time for self-examination. The late emperor said at that time that Master Hou was extremely enlightened, old general..."

"Call me for fame." Pei Jin said, smiling.

It seems that those four words are not derogatory, but just a neutral description.

Li Zhenren shook his head lightly, "That's because the old general has high demands on Lord Hou. The old man accepted this copybook, and he turned around and traveled around. He always took it with him no matter where he went. He watched it every day. He was intimidated by Master Hou's calligraphy, and demons and ghosts would also be scared." Stay away."

Do you want to give him another portrait of yourself?Pei Jin smiled secretly, turned her head and pressed it under the pillow to ward off evil spirits?

The two chatted for half a day, and there was constant laughter in the study.After sitting for another half a day, Zhenren Li left, and Pei Jin personally escorted him to the door.Turning around and coming back, he thought to himself that although the old man saw him every year, he would not come here for no reason to ask for a copybook. This move seemed to have a deep meaning.

However, thinking of this, Pei Jin thanked the guests behind closed doors, and continued to hide in the room for entertainment.

A few days later, Pei Jin was planning to go to Xishan to find a clean place to distribute boats, when someone from the palace suddenly said that the emperor ordered him to enter the palace.

There is no Hongmen Banquet, no grand court meeting, but the people in the hall are quite well gathered.

Stepping in, Pei Jin saw all the officials staring at him, some with calm faces, and some with poor self-cultivation, who couldn't help showing their faces. In short, they all expressed one meaning: Pei Jin was lawless and domineering.

At this time, the people from the Judiciary were pushed to the front, and said first, "I have recently received two letters, which are suspected to be written by Lord Hou. One is to dispatch the Southwest Army with the intention of provoking war in the Southwest; the other is from Lord Hou in the East China Sea. During this period, I wrote to Xue Rui, the former commander-in-chief of the Xishan Camp, asking him to step up the enclosure of Xishan. The former was sent to the Ministry of War by Governor Liao who knew the matter was important, and the latter was copied at Xue Rui's home. Two letters They have all been presented to the imperial court, and please look over them, Lord Hou."

Wang Liansheng came over with the letter in his hand, and Pei Jin glanced at it. Although he wasn't panicked, he couldn't help being surprised.

This word really resembles his, and it is clearly his recent style. When did Cao Xun and his group become so smart?

But other people, especially Liao Yuncong, knew that he would never rush to give evidence without communicating with him when he knew it would be detrimental to him.

The emperor saw that he saw the same thing, and asked, "Pei Qing, is this really your own handwriting?"

"It looks similar, but I don't remember that I wrote these two letters." Pei Jin raised his head and glanced at the imperial case, "Is your majesty comparing the handwriting on the old memorial?"

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and his face turned a little embarrassed. He pointed to a stunned guy next to him and said, "This person is good at identifying notes. The Justice asked him to come over and have a look. Then you can tell me your opinion."

The person who was named clapped his hands and said, "I have compared it carefully, and the style of the strokes is indeed the same as that written by Lord Hou. I think it may be identified as Lord Hou's own writing."

In just two sentences, he was in a cold sweat, but what is "maybe"?

Someone immediately coughed twice to express their dissatisfaction. As the leader, Cao Xun had no choice but to say, "In that case, I'd like to ask Lord Hou to explain. What is the purpose of provoking arrogance? The matter of enclosing land, the camps are really serious. We have to build our own arsenal? The transfer of land does not follow the usual procedures. If this is the first of its kind, it will be very detrimental to the livelihood of the people. Now the people are in panic, and the military circles in the capital do not abide by the law. If things go on like this, the prestige of the court may disappear.”

The big hat was buttoned up for a moment, and when he finished speaking, he looked at Pei Jin, but saw that he blinked innocently, and there was no arrogance or domineering attitude in his whole body.

"I have no way to prove myself. I originally wanted to ask the judiciary to investigate thoroughly and return my innocence. Now that these two letters have appeared, let's not mention the provocation for the time being. It is said that Xue Rui and the minister's correspondence and traffic violations have not been reported afterwards. The letter was destroyed, as if it was waiting for someone to come and search it. It seems that this kind of pig-headed person was taken down. It seems that it is not a loss at all, and I think it is really a blessing for the Xishan camp."

Cao Xun chuckled, and asked cautiously, "That is to say, Lord Hou can't prove that he didn't write these two letters?"

Pei Jin turned his head, looked at him and smiled, "Master Cao, if you put the original and the fake together, do you need to prove the authenticity yourself? Isn't it a professional to appraise it?" Through the notes to identify experts, "But the so-called professional, there are not a few people who make jokes."

His tone was unhurried, as if he had taken the time to chat with them. Cao Xun was a little confused about Pei Jin's approach, but suddenly someone outside the hall said, "Father John has something to see, please see His Majesty immediately. .”

The group of people headed by Cao Xun was suffocated immediately.

To say that the emperor has some sort of fad, the combination of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism seems not enough for him to play with. Recently, he has praised Christianity as good. The good thing is that there is confession. He often summons a priest to the palace to let people listen to his long-winded dictation. Guilty edict.But in this way, it saves the waste of paper to publish the real text, anyway, no one in the ruling and opposition parties cares about what he did wrong.

The priest didn't come in alone, he was followed by a timid Japanese devil.

"Your Majesty is well. I have been praying for Your Majesty recently." John made a sign of the cross and continued, "A few days ago a brother came to confess. , I can only persuade this brother to tell the truth himself, and now I ask His Majesty to hear it with his own ears."

The Dongying man was full of sorrow, his whole face was like a capitalized confession, and he saluted, "Your Majesty, the minister is the minister's clerk. By chance, I learned a secret about the minister. During the war in the East China Sea a while ago, the minister and The general negotiated letters and conspired to assassinate Pei Hou through the peace talks. It seems that there are several senior officials in the court and China who are related to this matter. Feeling panicked, I decided to tell His Majesty the truth."

As soon as the words fell, the hall was in chaos, and all the officials were in an uproar. Although they were not named, some people couldn't help but jumped and said, "Blood, you have lost the battle, and you want to leave to see my general, the monarch and the minister, such a clumsy The means are simply not trustworthy.”

"Your Majesty, in the will of the benevolent Lord, I hope to let His Majesty understand. As for whether every word is true, I can only say that I want to trust my brother, and I will not lie or deceive before the Lord." John After finishing speaking, he offered a box with both hands, "This is the New Year's gift left by Master Li before his travels, and I hope I will forward it to His Majesty."

Wang Liansheng stepped forward to take it, and heard Li Zhenren's words burst into anger, but the emperor laughed, "Where did the old man go to the fairy mountain to enjoy himself?"

John smiled and said nothing, looking mysterious and unfathomable, but he really didn't know.

In today's world, each family and faction often come together to exchange ideas and discuss "doctrines". Although they do not believe in the same master, they all eat the royal food of the family, so they do not delay the harmony among each other.

The emperor opened the box with great interest, and saw that there were all kinds of blessing scriptures. Li Laodao's handwriting has finally looked better in the past two years, but it is a pity that he is getting older and his hands are shaking. Indescribably itchy.

Just flipping through the pages again, the emperor was stunned. He couldn't help holding a page of paper in his hand, and gasped, "Isn't this Pei Qing's calligraphy?"

He looked at the two letters for a long time, and he didn't open his frown again. He kept a cold face for a long time, and motioned to the expert handwriting expert who looked like a backdrop, "Look at this."

No matter how stupid that expert was, he knew that something was wrong. He carefully checked back and forth in fear, and glanced at Cao Xun with small eyes, thinking that no matter whether Mr. Cao took it or received hints, he must tell the truth.

"It doesn't seem right. Combining the inscription and private seal, as well as the habit of Lord Hou's memorial, I found that when Lord Hou wrote the word "Jin" in the name taboo, there is always a lack of one. However, it is not reflected in these two letters. , even private seals are discrepant."

The words can be changed, if even the chapters are changed, it is not obvious to make people question the authenticity.

Someone immediately retorted, "That's not right, then Governor Liao is the former Ministry of the Marquis, how could he send the letter to the Ministry of War in such a hurry without recognizing the private seal in handwriting?"

Cao Xun was quick-witted, and turned her head to stare fiercely at the talking trash, thinking, because Liao Yuncong is Pei Jin's private person, he has no fear when he sees that there is a fake, maybe it was a conspiracy between them.Seeing that he was being cheated, he secretly hated those useless dim sums behind him, and had taught them to be calm and calm, but these idiots, seeing a letter is like seeing a treasure, insisted on running to the court like a dog bumping their butts.

As a result, he fell into a passive position. This time, he was afraid that the emperor would miss him.

"It's unreasonable!" The emperor lived up to Cao Xun's expectations, and immediately raised the case, "So someone deliberately forged a letter with the intention of framing Pei Qing? And this Donghai incident..."

"Your Majesty, one matter is one matter." Cao Xun hurriedly said, "I think that since the appraisal has been done, Lord Hou can be treated fairly. Moreover, this matter is very strange, and even those unscrupulous people who sued the imperial court before have to be carefully interrogated. In case someone deliberately framed it."

"As for the Japanese minister, he is a direct descendant of the shogunate. This move is obviously a conspiracy, and he should be deported as soon as possible. This document can be handed over to the judiciary for strict interrogation."

The clerk took a double look on the spot, nearly fainted, and looked at John for help, but unfortunately, his priest brother was watching his heart, and his soul had already soared to heaven at this moment.

The rest of the people, whether greedy or faint, are not stupid enough yet. They all know that compared with colluding with foreign enemies to murder the Generalissimo of the Army and Horses, the harmless partisanship and dissent are completely negligible. This group of people was wiped out, not to mention that even Pei Jin had to abide by the Dayan law that he had signed and agreed to.

Everyone changed their mouths one after another, echoing that the letter was a forgery, from thoroughly investigating Peihou to returning him to be innocent and fair, it didn't even take half a cup of tea.

The farce ended, and the court turned into a united and united enemy again. Everyone smiled and clapped their hands, boarded the car and left.

Pei Jin rubbed the center of his brows, there was nothing to be happy about the reinstatement of the official, but who wrote those two letters?It is certain that this person aims to help himself, could it be Li Laodao?It's true that the two of them have a friendship, but they wouldn't be so troublesome...

Just as he was thinking, a personal guard Pegasus approached and said, "A letter from Donghai."

Before Pei Jin opened it, his eyebrows twitched inexplicably, and he suddenly had a feeling, could it be his little tailor who did it?

Scanning the content, his temples jumped wildly. The letter was written in You Heng's handwriting. The handwriting was ugly and illegible, but the content was concise and to the point: When pirates attacked the island, when everyone fought with all their strength, they were separated from the guards and their whereabouts are still unknown.

Just now, the thought of helping him get out of trouble came up vigorously at this time, and the last four words became bigger and bigger before his eyes. help and bewildered.
