I am the county magistrate in Daming
Chapter 52 The Past of Yan Xunli
"You, don't move around." Seeing Yan Xunli struggling to get closer to him, Cui Han swallowed his saliva and dawdled back.
The iron chains and shackles collided with each other and made a crisp sound. Yan Xunli not only stopped, but also crawled forward a few feet.
Xiao San glanced at Cui Han, instead of stepping forward, she turned around and left, leaving Cui Han at a loss when facing Yan Xunli.
"My lord, don't be afraid." Yan Xunli raised his head and looked at Cui Han emptily, showing a perfect and gentle smile.
"Look." He stretched out his hand to Cui Han, and the iron chain was rattled.
"I can't touch you, don't be afraid, my lord."
Yan Xunli half-kneeled on the ground, propping up his upper body with the help of the straight iron chains, so he could barely see Cui Han's face.Because of the action just now, the wound on his body that had already stopped bleeding began to bleed out again, and a little bit of blood gathered into a stream, which slashed along the blade of the long sword on his shoulder and dripped on the thatch.
Cui Han couldn't bear to turn his head away, and said cruelly: "Stop pretending, I won't be fooled again."
"Sit back, if you want to die, don't die in front of this official."
Yan Xunli smiled idiotically, and said, "Of course I won't die in front of adults. After all, adults are timid and dare not even listen to ghost stories."
A few years ago, he was Ayan, and he had just met Cui Han not long ago.Cui Han was afraid that he would be bored, so no matter how busy he was, he would take time to take him to a teahouse to drink tea and listen to books every day.
Coincidentally, he was wearing a red dress today, and the storyteller was telling the story of "Blood Clothes".
"By the way, there was a scholar in the previous dynasty who passed the Jinshi examination and was spotted by the princess when he was parading through the streets."
"The imperial decree is to select Jinshi to be the county horse. Once a poor scholar flies into the noble hall, he is really envious of others. Everyone says that this is a rare blessing."
"The scholar was overjoyed, and hurriedly accepted the imperial decree, preparing to marry the princess."
"Who knows..." The storyteller's voice suddenly dropped.
Love is obsessed with grievances and entanglements, he just finds it boring.What's more, the woman in the story is a princess, how could she go to Beijing at will, let alone choose a Jinshi to be her husband.
He turned his head to look at Cui Han who was sitting next to him, and after a while, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, as if he had found something interesting.
Cui Han's face was tense, and he clasped the armrest of the chair with his hands, his whole body was as stiff as a fully drawn bow.
"Snapped!"
The storyteller slapped Xingmu violently, scaring all the drowsy spectators under the stage to wake up.
"The scholar has already married a wife and has a son at home. She heard from a fellow villager that Xianggong was a high school scholar, so she packed her bags early and went to Beijing to find her husband."
"The newcomer ushers in the old one's abandonment, and the lotus in his palm hurts his eyes. How could a scholar give up the innumerable glory and wealth in the future for the sake of his wife. When the matter reached the ears of the princess, instead of pitying her wife, who is also a woman, she even helped her." The scholar murdered the mother and son in Shangjing together."
"But on the night of the princess's wedding, the bride and groom were found dead in the bridal chamber, their hearts and livers were gouged out."
"The palace sent people to investigate, and found a woman's arm under the bed board of the new house, and the hearts and livers of the princess and the scholar were scattered beside this arm."
See, he knows, cookie cutter stories.
"But who knows, after the servants were tortured, they said that the dead wife's body had already been thrown into the river, and it was impossible for her to show up at the mansion."
"Scared." Cui Han took a deep breath, but couldn't let it out for a long time, and it made people anxious just looking at it.
"On the first seven days of the princess, a blood-stained red dress suddenly appeared on the stele! It was the clothes worn by the wife on the day she was murdered! It was impossible to enter the mausoleum of the princess, and the tomb guard was also scared out of his wits, saying Never saw anyone come in."
"It must be that poor wife turned into a ghost to seek revenge." The spectators whispered.
The storyteller looked around with satisfaction, took another shot to catch the eye, and said: "But later, the officials of Dali Temple went to investigate the matter and found that the scholar had never married a wife, let alone had children. People in his hometown have never heard of it. Said the name of the chaff wife."
He deliberately reached out to grab the teacup, and the tea lid made a "click" when it touched the cup wall.Feeling the trembling of the people around him, he happily raised his teacup and took a sip.
"What's going on here?" The spectators were dumbfounded.
The storyteller crossed the stage mysteriously, stretched his neck and scanned the people below.
"Legends say that on the fifteenth of every month, the 'Blood Clothes Empress' who was betrayed by her husband and turned into a ghost will appear. She will kill married couples and cut out their hearts and livers."
"Fifteen, avoid red clothes."
He raised his eyebrows and silently counted the time in his heart.Coincidentally, today is fifteen.
"grown ups……"
"Hoo!!!"
Before he finished speaking, Cui Han jumped up from the chair and looked at his clothes in horror.
An unprecedented sense of joy welled up spontaneously, and he smiled and said, "The clothes your lord is wearing today are suitable for the occasion." Being so scared, it seems that the days are clear.
That night, he intentionally stayed in Cui Han's room, and he didn't see Cui Han fall asleep after waiting for midnight.
"My lord, are you asleep?" He got up, changed his clothes, and knocked on Cui Han's door.
"Sleep, sleep." Cui Han said stumbled.
"Little girl... little girl is a little scared and can't sleep." He showed a mischievous smile.
"A man and a woman can't kiss each other. If Miss Ayan is afraid, I will find a maid to accompany you."
"How dare you trouble your lord." He said in a low voice, "It's the little girl who disturbed your lord."
The air was silent for a while, and Cui Han's door creaked open.He entered the door smoothly, but saw Cui Han holding a bundle of ropes in his hand.
"You tie my hands and feet, then there will be no problem." Cui Han said seriously.
What a fool.
Even though he was terrified to death, he insisted on showing off in front of others.
At night, Cui Han didn't sleep soundly, babbling about "blood clothes" and "help".He was so noisy that he got up from the bed, threw Cui Han who was sleeping on the ground sideways into it, wrapped it tightly with a quilt, and said fiercely: "Sleep, I am a beast to ward off evil spirits, and a hundred ghosts cannot invade."
Cui Han is really honest.
His family's little master didn't even dare to listen to ghost stories, and seeing him like this now, he must be terrified.
Cui Han blushed and said angrily: "You have achieved your goal, why humiliate me again!!"
Yes, he is timid, Yan Xunli is not as bold as you!
Seeing that Cui Han was very angry, Yan Xunli quickly said: "I never meant to look down on you, let alone insult you!"
Cui Han seemed to be extremely wronged, and he sat on the ground, crying loudly.
Now it was Yan Xunli's turn to be at a loss.
"I, I hiccup, I've never liked anyone else."
"Ayan is so good, why is it you!!"
Yan Xunli's internal organs were melted by Cui Han's tears. He wanted to hug the poor, huddled Cui Han tightly, but the iron fence in front of him and the chains behind him left him nowhere to escape. Exposure to guilt and pain.
"I like you!" Yan Xunli shouted in desperation.
Cui Han's crying stopped for a moment, and then continued.
"I like you! I adore you! I adore you!"
"You're talking nonsense!" Cui Han didn't know which sentence touched Ni Lin, he put down his hand covering his eyes, rushed to the fence and grabbed it, staring at Yan Xunli viciously.
"Is it fun to tease me? It must be fun. Seeing me foolishly succumbing to you for the sake of Ayan, you are very proud!!!"
"I didn't..." Yan Xunli's disguise was vulnerable in front of Cui Han, and he lost his former calm.
In the beginning, he really wanted to use Cui Han to take root in Chongming County and develop his influence.But in the end, Cui Han's joys, anger, sorrows and joys could not be circling in his mind.
"I just forgot how to love someone." Yan Xunli smiled bitterly.
Feelings and relationships that start with deception are destined not to last long.If he confessed early instead of threatening Cui Han with Mu Qingtian, would everything be different?
Cui Han didn't want to listen to him anymore, turned around and left the cell.
The next day, Yan Xunli recruited, including the poison marsh and his identity.But before that, Zhu Jingshou wrote a letter, saying that the poisonous marsh had nothing to do with him, it was all concocted by Tie Lao San, and he was not the one who kidnapped Mu Qingtian.
"Master Cui, the prisoner Yan has been recruited, do you want to follow?" Xiao San asked.With Mu Qingtian's blessing, he must take good care of Cui Han and bring him down the mountain with all his tail.
Cui Han's eyes flustered, and he was about to refuse, but finally said, "Yes."
"If the master doesn't want to see Yan, he can listen in the cell next door."
"Okay, please sir."
Yan Xunli's true identity is the eldest son of the former Yan family in Liaodong, which is no different from what Zhu Jingshou guessed before.
Back then, the Yan family and Wang Zhi had the same attitude, they were both the main battlers.The Ming Dynasty always adopted a strategy of "prevention" against foreign enemies, so many ministers in the court, including Dongchang at that time, did not agree to go to war.
Only Wang Zhi guessed the emperor's mind and insisted on going to war.
Later, when Wang Zhi lost power, Yan's family was the first to bear the brunt. They were executed by all the families on charges of "delaying the fighter plane" and "concealing the military situation".Even though the Yan family had nothing to do with Wang Zhi, they still couldn't escape the catastrophe.
Just beheading was not enough, the heads of the Yan family were hung at the city gate for more than a month to deter other forces related to Wang Zhi.
"My Yan family has been loyal and good for generations, fighting against the Jurchens, but died at the hands of a group of eunuchs, how ridiculous!!" Yan Xunli roared, waving the iron chain, as if returning to that year.
"This is not the reason for you to do evil." Xiao San said indifferently.
Today's sage was tortured by the concubine Wan Gui when he was young, but he forgave her after he ascended the throne.A past of suffering is not a token against death for evil.
"I am determined to serve the imperial court, but my status as a pariah prevents me from even entering the barracks."
"The military books accumulated by the Yan family for several generations are many times higher than the hats of those eunuchs."
The matter has been clarified, Yan Xunli pleaded guilty to the law, and was detained in the county government prison of Chongming County, awaiting trial.The bandits were afraid of the poisonous swamp, and they were afraid of King Qing, so they voluntarily went down the mountain and joined the garrison of Suzhou Prefecture.
"Hey, have you heard that our county magistrate Mu has wiped out all the bandits on the mountain!"
"No, that battle, the mighty group of people, is really scary."
Within a few days, the story of "Master Mu bravely entering the tiger's lair to suppress the bandits" spread throughout Chongming County. Some literati felt deeply and wrote many articles and poems praising Mu Qingtian's achievements.
After Xiao Qi arranged the follow-up matters, she returned to the county government office and reported the situation to Zhu Jingshou.
"Yan Xunli is good at martial arts, he is the son of Yan's eldest son, and his subordinates think it can be used."
"Braised trotters!"
"My king has heard about the incident back then, but I didn't expect that the son of the Yan family is still alive. It was my negligence. If I had been more careful, I might have been able to recruit Yan Xunli into my command early."
"Sauce pork knuckle!"
"Your Highness, there is no need to blame yourself. Yan Xunli's fall into today's situation is completely his own fault."
“Brine Chicken!”
"No, Yan Xunli is a rare general who knows Liaodong well and can lead bandits."
"pressed salted duck!"
The voice in the compartment fluctuated loudly and softly, it was clearly against Zhu Jingshou.
Xiao Qi looked embarrassed and said, "My lord, why don't you go and buy some meat for the princess first?"
Zhu Jingshou rubbed his eyebrows and said, "No need."
"You go and test Yan Xunli's attitude first, you really can't let Cui Han go."
"Yes."
Mu Qingtian was still next door, lying on the bed and shouting at the top of his lungs, wanting to report all the dishes in Fushoutang.
"It's just a coincidence that you can't be honest." Zhu Jingshou opened the door and came in, walked straight to Mu Qingtian's bed, leaned down and kissed Mu Qingtian's chattering lips.
Mu Qingtian said what to do, opened his big eyes and looked at Zhu Jingshou who was full of doting, and said, "It tastes good, let's try it again."
Zhu Jingshou leaned down and kissed the corner of his mouth again.
"Okay, be safe when you're sick, and don't tease me."
Mu Qingtian said dissatisfiedly: "I'm already healed!"
As expected of a detoxification pill that cost [-] points, taking one pill, even Mu Qingtian's insomnia and fatigue, which hadn't slept well for several days, were cured.After fully understanding the efficacy of the Jiedu Pill, Mu Qingtian searched the warehouse and got a wrong idea.
The reward for routine task one is very rich, not only a thousand points, but also "back in time".The function of time regression is very similar to the antidote pill, and it is also a one-time item, but the time it can be traced back is very short, and the object of action can only be a single item.
For example, if the mirror is broken, "backtracking in time" can bring the mirror back to the state when it was not broken.
After reading the usage method and instructions, Mu Qingtian took out the "Time Backward" light ball from the warehouse without hesitation, adjusted the mall to the last page, and sent the light ball in to the blackened detoxification pill.
The light suddenly appeared, and Mu Qingtian couldn't open his eyes.Fortunately, during the day, his small movements were not discovered.
When the white light dissipated, Mu Qingtian excitedly opened his eyes to look at the grid of the Jiedu Pill, and the smile instantly froze on his face—the Jiedu Pill was still black, and it hadn't returned to its previous state.
what happened! !Mu Qingtian hurriedly checked the warehouse, and "Time Rewind" also disappeared.
[Please don't be opportunistic. 】The sound of the system suddenly sounded.
[Special props can only be used once, cannot be restored, and cannot be copied. 】
"What about my reward?" Mu Qingtian asked anxiously.
If there is no recovery, then "Time Regression" should be returned to him.
[It is detected that you have violated the rules, as a punishment, the regular task rewards will not be returned. 】
"Believe it or not, I'm going to jump into the river right now! I got the props from hard work, give them back to me!" Mu Qing was furious.
[It's up to you. 】
After speaking, the system fell into a dormant state again.
Mu Qingtian was incompetent and furious, he couldn't really make fun of his own body, and the system didn't come out for laning, no matter how angry he was, it would be like punching cotton with his fist, limp and weak.
After struggling for a long time, he finally accepted the fact.If it's gone, it's gone, anyway, there are still points that can be exchanged for things.I didn't expect Li Guang to be so courageous. Fortunately, he has a system, otherwise he would really have to be coerced by him.
After sorting things out, he told Zhu Jingshou everything he had experienced on the mountain.
"I've never met Li Guang, so I don't know who the person I'm talking to is."
Zhu Jingshou felt sorry for him, and said, "Lie down first, don't worry, speak slowly."
Mu Qingtian didn't like Zhu Jingshou treating him like a porcelain doll, on the surface he obediently agreed to lie down, but when Zhu Jingshou leaned over, he suddenly exerted force and pressed his shoulder, causing them to fall apart.
"Your Highness King Qing, I am a man after all." Mu Qingtian straddled his legs on both sides, condescendingly squinting his eyes at Zhu Jingshou.
After speaking, he lowered his head and kissed Zhu Jingshou's Adam's apple hard.
"Hmm." Zhu Jingshou made an unintelligible voice with a strange expression on his face.
Mu Qingtian was very proud and felt that he was doing well again.What King Qing, he was under his pressure!
"Qingqing..." Zhu Jingshou's voice was slightly hoarse.
"Hey, don't move." Mu Qingtian tightened his legs, "You are the fish and I am the knife, don't try to play tricks."
Like, something's wrong?
Mu Qingtian ignored the ominous premonition in his heart, and continued to say: "My illness is already cured, so don't be nervous every day like a mother-in-law."
"En." Zhu Jingshou's eyes gradually changed.
"I made a great contribution this time!"
Zhu Jingshou's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and said, "Yes, Qingqing is the best..."
Before Mu Qingtian could finish his complacency, he moved back and suddenly froze.
"You, you, you!" He bounced up like a rabbit and shrank to the foot of the bed, his face turned red and blue, "I'm still a patient! A beast!"
Now Zhu Jingshou is not nervous anymore, so he sat up and straightened his clothes in leisure time, looked at Mu Qingtian with a smile and said: "I am wronged, it was Qingqing who said, 'my illness is cured'."
"Then, then you can't..."
Zhu Jingshou put it away when he was done, grabbed the quilt to cover himself, and said softly: "You rest for a while, I'll come over later."
Qingqing's body is just right, and it's not suitable for too much mood swings, let alone strenuous exercise, Zhu Jingshou would rather bear it by himself.
Mu Qingtian stayed in the room, hugging the quilt and secretly laughing, like a fool who just fell in love.
As a result, after a few days, Mu Qingtian broke out.There is no other reason, the sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest.When he was poisoned, he was supplemented hard, which caused his blood to be too strong now, so he should avoid spicy and greasy.
Good guy, let alone pork belly with elbows, there is not even minced meat, and the whole day is green vegetables and white porridge. Those who don't know think that King Qing has changed his career to raise rabbits.
Mu Qingtian quit, and Zhu Jingshou didn't budge either.When it was supposed to be like glue, the two had a cold war.No, when Xiao Qi came to report, Mu Qingtian was making trouble nearby.
"It's my fault." Zhu Jingshou was defeated first, and stroked Mu Qingtian's hair, "I promise, in three days, I will take you to Fushou Tang to eat something good, you can eat whatever you want."
"It's a word."
Mu Qingtian finally showed a smile, and kissed Zhu Jingshou's face again without hesitation.
"Have you thought about what to do before?"
Zhu Jingshou felt that it was Li Guang's subordinates who kidnapped Mu Qingtian, not himself.
"Li Guang is highly regarded by the emperor, and he cannot leave the palace easily."
Mu Qingtian nodded and said, "That emerald green finger, do you have any clues?"
The emerald green finger was the only clue he knew, and he didn't know if he could dig out the identity of that person.
"There are many people wearing finger rings in the court, and I am not sure who they are for the time being."
"Li Guang's goal is mine. In the final analysis, I still hurt you." Zhu Jingshou blamed himself very much, regretting not protecting Mu Qingtian well.
"Hey." Mu Qingtian smirked, "But he has a good eye and knows how to start with me."
Li Guang didn't want to kill Mu Qingtian, but wanted to win him over and let him pass on information related to King Qing.Both Li Canshi and Yao Jingdao belonged to him, but he did not expect both of them to be overthrown by Mu Qingtian.
Peaceful wooing is not enough, only some means can be used.
Zhu Jingshou hooked Gou Muqingtian's little finger, and smiled arrogantly.
"Yes, he is quite sensible, knowing that Qingqing is my man."
"Since he wants news, let's give him news."
Li Guang's poison is indeed overbearing, but he is not a real god, he can't be counted as a detoxification pill, let alone Mu Qingtian's variable.
"Yeah." Mu Qingtian grabbed Zhu Jingshou with his backhand, "He doesn't know that my illness is cured yet, we can put on a play and gain his trust."
"There is a clear understanding, thank you for your hard work." Zhu Jingshou approached with a smile.
Mu Qingtian thought that Zhu Jingshou was going to kiss him, so he closed his eyes naturally, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't get a familiar feeling.
He opened his eyes in doubt, only to see the cunning in Zhu Jingshou's eyes flashing past, and the next moment he was kissed.
"This king is handsome and domineering, how can Qingqing not look at me?"
Mu Qingtian slapped him up, pulled Zhu Jingshou's face vigorously, and said, "Look at this face, even a needle can't pierce it."
Zhu Jingshou didn't take it seriously, he hugged Mu Qingtian and dangled back and forth.
Seeing that he was upset, Mu Qingtian said, "But you don't have to talk about hard work, sir, naturally you want to protect the lady and make her live comfortably."
"What did you say?" Zhu Jingshou's eyes sharpened.
Mu Qingtian hesitated for a second, then laughed dryly and said, "Hehe, everyone says that the monarch and his ministers are like husband and wife."
Zhu Jingshou raised his eyebrows, and said: "As a lady, you should share the worries and solve the problems for your husband, Qingqing, don't you?"
It's you bastard!
Then the two started a very rigorous discussion on "who is the husband and who is the wife".
"By the way, what did you go to Huzhou for?" Mu Qingtian's eyes were red, and he nestled in Zhu Jingshou's arms, playing with his fingers.
When Huzhou was mentioned, Zhu Jingshou's face was a little uneasy.
"A murder case occurred in Huzhou, which aroused the fear of the people, especially the silkworm farmers. All of them stopped reeling and dared not weave any more." Huzhou has always been famous for its sericulture, and the silk it produces is popular all over the country.Now the sudden stop of production, the impact is not small.
Moreover, this matter even alarmed the emperor, Shi Houjian, the magistrate of Suzhou, couldn't make up his mind, so he chose to write to Zhu Jingshou.
"Murder case?" Mu Qingtian turned his head and asked curiously, "What does that have to do with silkworm rearing?"
The murder happened in the mansion of a large sericulture family surnamed "Wu" in Huzhou.
Silkworm God kills.
The author has something to say: The newcomer welcomes the old one and abandons it, the lotus in the palm has a thorn in the eye. ——Bai Juyi
The story of the Yan family was made up by me, there is no historical basis, so don’t take it seriously~
The case of "Murder of the Silkworm God" comes from "Remaining News of Governing the World" written by Chen Hongmo, a writer of the Ming Dynasty.
small theater:
Mu Qingtian: Vomit, want to vomit.
Zhu Jingshou:! !Could it be!
沐青天:嗯,没错,是吃太多了。感谢在2020-12-2123:17:45~2020-12-2221:03:28期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
Thanks to the little angels who irrigate the nutrient solution: 10 bottles of flipping through books; 1 bottle of husband Luo Yunxi who learned more for 1 minute;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
The iron chains and shackles collided with each other and made a crisp sound. Yan Xunli not only stopped, but also crawled forward a few feet.
Xiao San glanced at Cui Han, instead of stepping forward, she turned around and left, leaving Cui Han at a loss when facing Yan Xunli.
"My lord, don't be afraid." Yan Xunli raised his head and looked at Cui Han emptily, showing a perfect and gentle smile.
"Look." He stretched out his hand to Cui Han, and the iron chain was rattled.
"I can't touch you, don't be afraid, my lord."
Yan Xunli half-kneeled on the ground, propping up his upper body with the help of the straight iron chains, so he could barely see Cui Han's face.Because of the action just now, the wound on his body that had already stopped bleeding began to bleed out again, and a little bit of blood gathered into a stream, which slashed along the blade of the long sword on his shoulder and dripped on the thatch.
Cui Han couldn't bear to turn his head away, and said cruelly: "Stop pretending, I won't be fooled again."
"Sit back, if you want to die, don't die in front of this official."

Now it was Yan Xunli's turn to be at a loss.

Yan Xunli's internal organs were melted by Cui Han's tears. He wanted to hug the poor, huddled Cui Han tightly, but the iron fence in front of him and the chains behind him left him nowhere to escape. Exposure to guilt and pain.
"I like you!" Yan Xunli shouted in desperation.
Cui Han's crying stopped for a moment, and then continued.
"I like you! I adore you! I adore you!"
"You're talking nonsense!" Cui Han didn't know which sentence touched Ni Lin, he put down his hand covering his eyes, rushed to the fence and grabbed it, staring at Yan Xunli viciously.
"Is it fun to tease me? It must be fun. Seeing me foolishly succumbing to you for the sake of Ayan, you are very proud!!!"
"I didn't..." Yan Xunli's disguise was vulnerable in front of Cui Han, and he lost his former calm.
In the beginning, he really wanted to use Cui Han to take root in Chongming County and develop his influence.But in the end, Cui Han's joys, anger, sorrows and joys could not be circling in his mind.
"I just forgot how to love someone." Yan Xunli smiled bitterly.
Feelings and relationships that start with deception are destined not to last long.If he confessed early instead of threatening Cui Han with Mu Qingtian, would everything be different?
Cui Han didn't want to listen to him anymore, turned around and left the cell.
The next day, Yan Xunli recruited, including the poison marsh and his identity.But before that, Zhu Jingshou wrote a letter, saying that the poisonous marsh had nothing to do with him, it was all concocted by Tie Lao San, and he was not the one who kidnapped Mu Qingtian.
"Master Cui, the prisoner Yan has been recruited, do you want to follow?" Xiao San asked.With Mu Qingtian's blessing, he must take good care of Cui Han and bring him down the mountain with all his tail.
Cui Han's eyes flustered, and he was about to refuse, but finally said, "Yes."
"If the master doesn't want to see Yan, he can listen in the cell next door."
"Okay, please sir."
Yan Xunli's true identity is the eldest son of the former Yan family in Liaodong, which is no different from what Zhu Jingshou guessed before.
Back then, the Yan family and Wang Zhi had the same attitude, they were both the main battlers.The Ming Dynasty always adopted a strategy of "prevention" against foreign enemies, so many ministers in the court, including Dongchang at that time, did not agree to go to war.
Only Wang Zhi guessed the emperor's mind and insisted on going to war.
Later, when Wang Zhi lost power, Yan's family was the first to bear the brunt. They were executed by all the families on charges of "delaying the fighter plane" and "concealing the military situation".Even though the Yan family had nothing to do with Wang Zhi, they still couldn't escape the catastrophe.
Just beheading was not enough, the heads of the Yan family were hung at the city gate for more than a month to deter other forces related to Wang Zhi.
"My Yan family has been loyal and good for generations, fighting against the Jurchens, but died at the hands of a group of eunuchs, how ridiculous!!" Yan Xunli roared, waving the iron chain, as if returning to that year.
"This is not the reason for you to do evil." Xiao San said indifferently.
Today's sage was tortured by the concubine Wan Gui when he was young, but he forgave her after he ascended the throne.A past of suffering is not a token against death for evil.
"I am determined to serve the imperial court, but my status as a pariah prevents me from even entering the barracks."
"The military books accumulated by the Yan family for several generations are many times higher than the hats of those eunuchs."
The matter has been clarified, Yan Xunli pleaded guilty to the law, and was detained in the county government prison of Chongming County, awaiting trial.The bandits were afraid of the poisonous swamp, and they were afraid of King Qing, so they voluntarily went down the mountain and joined the garrison of Suzhou Prefecture.
"Hey, have you heard that our county magistrate Mu has wiped out all the bandits on the mountain!"
"No, that battle, the mighty group of people, is really scary."
Within a few days, the story of "Master Mu bravely entering the tiger's lair to suppress the bandits" spread throughout Chongming County. Some literati felt deeply and wrote many articles and poems praising Mu Qingtian's achievements.
After Xiao Qi arranged the follow-up matters, she returned to the county government office and reported the situation to Zhu Jingshou.
"Yan Xunli is good at martial arts, he is the son of Yan's eldest son, and his subordinates think it can be used."
"Braised trotters!"
"My king has heard about the incident back then, but I didn't expect that the son of the Yan family is still alive. It was my negligence. If I had been more careful, I might have been able to recruit Yan Xunli into my command early."
"Sauce pork knuckle!"
"Your Highness, there is no need to blame yourself. Yan Xunli's fall into today's situation is completely his own fault."
“Brine Chicken!”
"No, Yan Xunli is a rare general who knows Liaodong well and can lead bandits."
"pressed salted duck!"
The voice in the compartment fluctuated loudly and softly, it was clearly against Zhu Jingshou.
Xiao Qi looked embarrassed and said, "My lord, why don't you go and buy some meat for the princess first?"
Zhu Jingshou rubbed his eyebrows and said, "No need."
"You go and test Yan Xunli's attitude first, you really can't let Cui Han go."
"Yes."
Mu Qingtian was still next door, lying on the bed and shouting at the top of his lungs, wanting to report all the dishes in Fushoutang.
"It's just a coincidence that you can't be honest." Zhu Jingshou opened the door and came in, walked straight to Mu Qingtian's bed, leaned down and kissed Mu Qingtian's chattering lips.
Mu Qingtian said what to do, opened his big eyes and looked at Zhu Jingshou who was full of doting, and said, "It tastes good, let's try it again."
Zhu Jingshou leaned down and kissed the corner of his mouth again.
"Okay, be safe when you're sick, and don't tease me."
Mu Qingtian said dissatisfiedly: "I'm already healed!"
As expected of a detoxification pill that cost [-] points, taking one pill, even Mu Qingtian's insomnia and fatigue, which hadn't slept well for several days, were cured.After fully understanding the efficacy of the Jiedu Pill, Mu Qingtian searched the warehouse and got a wrong idea.
The reward for routine task one is very rich, not only a thousand points, but also "back in time".The function of time regression is very similar to the antidote pill, and it is also a one-time item, but the time it can be traced back is very short, and the object of action can only be a single item.
For example, if the mirror is broken, "backtracking in time" can bring the mirror back to the state when it was not broken.
After reading the usage method and instructions, Mu Qingtian took out the "Time Backward" light ball from the warehouse without hesitation, adjusted the mall to the last page, and sent the light ball in to the blackened detoxification pill.
The light suddenly appeared, and Mu Qingtian couldn't open his eyes.Fortunately, during the day, his small movements were not discovered.
When the white light dissipated, Mu Qingtian excitedly opened his eyes to look at the grid of the Jiedu Pill, and the smile instantly froze on his face—the Jiedu Pill was still black, and it hadn't returned to its previous state.
what happened! !Mu Qingtian hurriedly checked the warehouse, and "Time Rewind" also disappeared.
[Please don't be opportunistic. 】The sound of the system suddenly sounded.
[Special props can only be used once, cannot be restored, and cannot be copied. 】
"What about my reward?" Mu Qingtian asked anxiously.
If there is no recovery, then "Time Regression" should be returned to him.
[It is detected that you have violated the rules, as a punishment, the regular task rewards will not be returned. 】
"Believe it or not, I'm going to jump into the river right now! I got the props from hard work, give them back to me!" Mu Qing was furious.
[It's up to you. 】
After speaking, the system fell into a dormant state again.
Mu Qingtian was incompetent and furious, he couldn't really make fun of his own body, and the system didn't come out for laning, no matter how angry he was, it would be like punching cotton with his fist, limp and weak.
After struggling for a long time, he finally accepted the fact.If it's gone, it's gone, anyway, there are still points that can be exchanged for things.I didn't expect Li Guang to be so courageous. Fortunately, he has a system, otherwise he would really have to be coerced by him.
After sorting things out, he told Zhu Jingshou everything he had experienced on the mountain.
"I've never met Li Guang, so I don't know who the person I'm talking to is."
Zhu Jingshou felt sorry for him, and said, "Lie down first, don't worry, speak slowly."
Mu Qingtian didn't like Zhu Jingshou treating him like a porcelain doll, on the surface he obediently agreed to lie down, but when Zhu Jingshou leaned over, he suddenly exerted force and pressed his shoulder, causing them to fall apart.
"Your Highness King Qing, I am a man after all." Mu Qingtian straddled his legs on both sides, condescendingly squinting his eyes at Zhu Jingshou.
After speaking, he lowered his head and kissed Zhu Jingshou's Adam's apple hard.
"Hmm." Zhu Jingshou made an unintelligible voice with a strange expression on his face.
Mu Qingtian was very proud and felt that he was doing well again.What King Qing, he was under his pressure!
"Qingqing..." Zhu Jingshou's voice was slightly hoarse.
"Hey, don't move." Mu Qingtian tightened his legs, "You are the fish and I am the knife, don't try to play tricks."
Like, something's wrong?
Mu Qingtian ignored the ominous premonition in his heart, and continued to say: "My illness is already cured, so don't be nervous every day like a mother-in-law."
"En." Zhu Jingshou's eyes gradually changed.
"I made a great contribution this time!"
Zhu Jingshou's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and said, "Yes, Qingqing is the best..."
Before Mu Qingtian could finish his complacency, he moved back and suddenly froze.
"You, you, you!" He bounced up like a rabbit and shrank to the foot of the bed, his face turned red and blue, "I'm still a patient! A beast!"
Now Zhu Jingshou is not nervous anymore, so he sat up and straightened his clothes in leisure time, looked at Mu Qingtian with a smile and said: "I am wronged, it was Qingqing who said, 'my illness is cured'."
"Then, then you can't..."
Zhu Jingshou put it away when he was done, grabbed the quilt to cover himself, and said softly: "You rest for a while, I'll come over later."
Qingqing's body is just right, and it's not suitable for too much mood swings, let alone strenuous exercise, Zhu Jingshou would rather bear it by himself.
Mu Qingtian stayed in the room, hugging the quilt and secretly laughing, like a fool who just fell in love.
As a result, after a few days, Mu Qingtian broke out.There is no other reason, the sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest.When he was poisoned, he was supplemented hard, which caused his blood to be too strong now, so he should avoid spicy and greasy.
Good guy, let alone pork belly with elbows, there is not even minced meat, and the whole day is green vegetables and white porridge. Those who don't know think that King Qing has changed his career to raise rabbits.
Mu Qingtian quit, and Zhu Jingshou didn't budge either.When it was supposed to be like glue, the two had a cold war.No, when Xiao Qi came to report, Mu Qingtian was making trouble nearby.
"It's my fault." Zhu Jingshou was defeated first, and stroked Mu Qingtian's hair, "I promise, in three days, I will take you to Fushou Tang to eat something good, you can eat whatever you want."
"It's a word."
Mu Qingtian finally showed a smile, and kissed Zhu Jingshou's face again without hesitation.
"Have you thought about what to do before?"
Zhu Jingshou felt that it was Li Guang's subordinates who kidnapped Mu Qingtian, not himself.
"Li Guang is highly regarded by the emperor, and he cannot leave the palace easily."
Mu Qingtian nodded and said, "That emerald green finger, do you have any clues?"
The emerald green finger was the only clue he knew, and he didn't know if he could dig out the identity of that person.
"There are many people wearing finger rings in the court, and I am not sure who they are for the time being."
"Li Guang's goal is mine. In the final analysis, I still hurt you." Zhu Jingshou blamed himself very much, regretting not protecting Mu Qingtian well.
"Hey." Mu Qingtian smirked, "But he has a good eye and knows how to start with me."
Li Guang didn't want to kill Mu Qingtian, but wanted to win him over and let him pass on information related to King Qing.Both Li Canshi and Yao Jingdao belonged to him, but he did not expect both of them to be overthrown by Mu Qingtian.
Peaceful wooing is not enough, only some means can be used.
Zhu Jingshou hooked Gou Muqingtian's little finger, and smiled arrogantly.
"Yes, he is quite sensible, knowing that Qingqing is my man."
"Since he wants news, let's give him news."
Li Guang's poison is indeed overbearing, but he is not a real god, he can't be counted as a detoxification pill, let alone Mu Qingtian's variable.
"Yeah." Mu Qingtian grabbed Zhu Jingshou with his backhand, "He doesn't know that my illness is cured yet, we can put on a play and gain his trust."
"There is a clear understanding, thank you for your hard work." Zhu Jingshou approached with a smile.
Mu Qingtian thought that Zhu Jingshou was going to kiss him, so he closed his eyes naturally, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't get a familiar feeling.
He opened his eyes in doubt, only to see the cunning in Zhu Jingshou's eyes flashing past, and the next moment he was kissed.
"This king is handsome and domineering, how can Qingqing not look at me?"
Mu Qingtian slapped him up, pulled Zhu Jingshou's face vigorously, and said, "Look at this face, even a needle can't pierce it."
Zhu Jingshou didn't take it seriously, he hugged Mu Qingtian and dangled back and forth.
Seeing that he was upset, Mu Qingtian said, "But you don't have to talk about hard work, sir, naturally you want to protect the lady and make her live comfortably."
"What did you say?" Zhu Jingshou's eyes sharpened.
Mu Qingtian hesitated for a second, then laughed dryly and said, "Hehe, everyone says that the monarch and his ministers are like husband and wife."
Zhu Jingshou raised his eyebrows, and said: "As a lady, you should share the worries and solve the problems for your husband, Qingqing, don't you?"
It's you bastard!
Then the two started a very rigorous discussion on "who is the husband and who is the wife".
"By the way, what did you go to Huzhou for?" Mu Qingtian's eyes were red, and he nestled in Zhu Jingshou's arms, playing with his fingers.
When Huzhou was mentioned, Zhu Jingshou's face was a little uneasy.
"A murder case occurred in Huzhou, which aroused the fear of the people, especially the silkworm farmers. All of them stopped reeling and dared not weave any more." Huzhou has always been famous for its sericulture, and the silk it produces is popular all over the country.Now the sudden stop of production, the impact is not small.
Moreover, this matter even alarmed the emperor, Shi Houjian, the magistrate of Suzhou, couldn't make up his mind, so he chose to write to Zhu Jingshou.
"Murder case?" Mu Qingtian turned his head and asked curiously, "What does that have to do with silkworm rearing?"
The murder happened in the mansion of a large sericulture family surnamed "Wu" in Huzhou.
Silkworm God kills.
The author has something to say: The newcomer welcomes the old one and abandons it, the lotus in the palm has a thorn in the eye. ——Bai Juyi
The story of the Yan family was made up by me, there is no historical basis, so don’t take it seriously~
The case of "Murder of the Silkworm God" comes from "Remaining News of Governing the World" written by Chen Hongmo, a writer of the Ming Dynasty.
small theater:
Mu Qingtian: Vomit, want to vomit.
Zhu Jingshou:! !Could it be!
沐青天:嗯,没错,是吃太多了。感谢在2020-12-2123:17:45~2020-12-2221:03:28期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
