Cheng Yu lifted the curtain of the car and watched Wuwei Town get farther and farther away from him, until it turned into a small black spot in his sight, Cheng Yu put down the curtain.

Zhao Jinshu, who was sitting across from him, saw it and asked with a smile, "Brother, what's the matter?"

Cheng Yu sighed: "I always feel like these few months are like a dream!"

Several rooms of thick mattresses were spread in the carriage.If Cheng Yu's lame leg walked slowly, no one would be able to tell.It's a blessing in disguise, but the problem of leg pain in cold weather is still there.Zhao Jinshu put Cheng Yu's leg into his arms.

Cheng Yu always felt a little awkward, but he couldn't resist Zhao Jinshu, so he had to let him go.

In the evening, there was a little snow on the road.Delayed time, did not arrive at the post before dark.Wen Ming didn't rush, and ordered some soldiers to set up earthen stoves and tents.

When Cheng Yu got off the car, the tent was almost set up.Some soldiers are packing up and preparing to cook.There were already two people sitting side by side by the campfire, and Wen Ming was roasting mutton in his hand.Seeing Cheng Yu approaching, he raised his eyebrows slightly, picked up a small jar of wine from the ground, and threw it to Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu took it and opened the plug.Right on the mouth of the bottle, I drank it.

Wen Ming clicked his tongue twice, "Young Master Xia actually dared to drink the wine I gave you. Aren't you afraid that I might poison the wine?"

As soon as the wine entered the stomach, a warm current slowly flowed through the whole body.Cheng Yu said: "I haven't got the Tiger Talisman yet, will Commander Wen be willing to kill me?"

Wen Ming laughed and said: "Master Xia is really smart, no wonder someone has been thinking about it for several years! If my surname is not Wen, and I am not burdened by this family background, I would like to be your friend."

Cheng Yu said: "Commander Wen said this against his will, did he forget that we still owe my senior brother a life!"

Wen Ming's face drooped immediately.

Zhao Jinshu then came and sat down in front of Cheng Yu.He took the jug handed over by Cheng Yu and drank it.

Wen Ming glanced at the two people opposite him, and then at Pei Zifu who was sitting next to him.Just at this time, the soldier had already handed over the roasted meat.Wen Ming suggested at the right time.

"It's no fun just drinking and eating meat, how about we play a game?" Seeing that the two people on the other side didn't answer, Wen Ming simply took it as their acquiescence.

"How about this, each of us asks the question that the other party wants to ask the most in turn. If the other party doesn't want to answer, the questioner can ask the other party to do anything. Of course, there are words first, and this matter is naturally not murder or arson."

Zhao Jinshu had no objection, and said, "Then who will ask first?"

Wen Ming said: "Let's write four numbers first, representing the four of us. Then randomly shuffle them and rearrange them. Let's play one by one, how about it?"

Immediately, there were soldiers waiting for orders, bringing pens and paper.

One represents Cheng Yu, and the other represents Zhao Jinshu.The third is Wen Ming, and the fourth is Pei Zifu.Pei Zifu folded the paper and rearranged it.

The first piece of paper was unfolded, and it said two.

Wen Ming said: "His Royal Highness, I invite you first."

Zhao Jinshu said: "Wen Ming, I really want to know, why do you always wear red clothes to show off in the market?"

Cheng Yu also wanted to know the question Zhao Jinshu asked, Wen Ming dressed like a married couple all day long.Everyone thought that Wen Ming acted dissolutely because his aunt was the queen mother, but Cheng Yu felt that things would not be that simple.

"Because it's more eye-catching on the battlefield."

Wen Ming's answer was somewhat unexpected to Cheng Yu.It's fine if you show off the limelight on weekdays, and you should avoid being conspicuous on the battlefield.Because, the more prominent you are, the faster you will die.Cheng Yu had also heard of Wen Ming's style of leading troops. He really would lead the soldiers and lead the soldiers to charge into battle.

Wen Ming took a sip of wine and said: "The three towns fell that day, and my father put on the armor of a soldier and fled all the way back to Cangzhou. From that day on, I swore secretly that I would always stand in front of all the soldiers, so that they could see everything at a glance. See me. Tell them I'm definitely different from my father and I won't run away again."

After a while of silence, the second note was opened.It says one.

Cheng Yu felt that he didn't have anything to ask, so he thought about it and looked at Pei Zifu.

"Mr. Pei, if you get married, what do you want to accompany?"

Wen Ming chuckled and looked at Pei Zifu.

"Gold hairpin."

Cheng Yu was slightly disappointed. He heard Zhao Jinshu say that Pei Zifu had someone in his heart, so he wanted to take this opportunity to find out what Pei Zifu wanted.When the time comes, be ready for him.And the hairpin has a special meaning, either as a betrothal gift, or as a token of love.If it is given as a gift, it will make people feel hasty and frivolous.

The third note said four.

Pei Zifu looked at Cheng Yu and asked, "Does Mr. Xia look down on people of my background?"

Cheng Yu shook his head and simply said, "No!"

Seeing that the sparks in Pei Zifu's eyes were about to rekindle, Wen Ming said, "Then the fourth one is me. What I want to ask Mr. Xia is, do you have someone you like in your heart?"

Cheng Yu immediately noticed the gazes of the three of them.Squeaked for a long time, but still did not say it.He wasn't ashamed to disclose his relationship with Axiu, but he didn't want to expose this in front of Wen Ming.

Seeing that Cheng Yu didn't speak for a long time, Wen Ming glanced around at Pei Zifu who was sitting by the fire, and said with a smile, "Since Mr. Xia doesn't want to say anything, then follow the rules, I say something and you do it." .”

Immediately, he pointed at Pei Zifu and said, "How about you kiss him?"

Zhao Jinshu's face turned red immediately, and he stopped in front of Cheng Yu.

"Commander Wen, some things can't be joked about!"

Wen Ming said: "It's so strange, I didn't let Young Master Xia kill and set fire. Everything is done according to the rules, and others have to answer every question. Why should I make a special case when I come to him?"

Seeing that the two of them were talking more and more aggressively, Cheng Yu hurriedly mixed a handful of mud, and held Wen Ming's Zhao Jinshu with one hand who was about to get up to clean up.

"It's indeed my fault, but what I said earlier is to do one thing, but this matter should not involve others. Besides, it's fine if I am embarrassed alone, why bother to drag an innocent bystander. Pei Your Excellency must not be willing to be involved in it! Commander Wen should change another matter!"

He was very happy.Wen Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Pei Zifu who was gradually bowing his head in the firelight.The expression on the opponent's face was hidden by the black shadow.Then Wen Mingfu turned back to look at Cheng Yu.

"So, I want Mr. Xia to..."

Cheng Yu suddenly felt that Wen Ming's mood seemed to improve a lot all of a sudden, and even his tone of voice became a little lighter.Just as he was concentrating on waiting for Wen Ming's next words.A little soldier who looked like a personal guard rushed over in a panic, and whispered something in Wen Ming's ear.

Cheng Yu saw that Wen Ming's face suddenly became a little gloomy and serious.After the soldiers retreated, Wen Ming stood up immediately without saying a word.It was ordered to break out of the camp and march on the fourth watch.On the fourth watch, even if you march in a hurry, you will not choose this point.

Although Cheng Yu felt strange, he refrained from asking along the way.It wasn't until after the capital that he actually heard some rumors from Feng Ningxiang.

It turned out that a censor from Yushitai participated in an editor of the Imperial Academy.

In the capital, this editor is only an official who is bigger than a sesame mung bean. It is really inconspicuous to drop a brick here and smash the capital with three wat boards.

But the problem happened to this little Hanlin.This Hanlin happened to have a stomachache and went to the latrine when the imperial censor came to the Hanlin Academy.The censor just picked it up, and the draft that the Hanlin had just written was simply too horrible to look at.

Not only is the handwriting illegible, but several common allusions are also misused.Those who can be selected into the Imperial Academy are all famous scholars who have read poetry and books, so how could they make such a low-level mistake.

The censor immediately followed the clues, and as soon as he touched it, he touched the examiner at that time.After many inquiries, I learned that the examiner received ten thousand taels of silver in private.Cheng Yu secretly sighed in his heart, this bully in Wutai, according to Tu Suojun's ability, is much more powerful than the people from the Ministry of Punishment.

The censor should write the memorial and hand it to the imperial case.If some high-ranking officials usually accept some bribes, the court will turn a blind eye, and it will be over if they close their eyes.

After all, wearing this official robe and black gauze, how many people can be alone and have clean hands and feet.

But fraud in the examination room is a red line that cannot be touched, because it involves party formation and shakes the foundation of the court.

As long as it is a fraud case in the examination room, it is often dealt with severely and strictly.After Zhao Yu learned of this, he was immediately furious.The Ministry of Life and Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai will conduct a joint trial to investigate the matter strictly.

When the matter came to this point, it seemed that Uncle Guo could not be involved.However, the censor had an ingenious idea and added a sentence at the end of the book, saying that the examiner had a close relationship with the uncle of the country, and he often went in and out of the uncle's house, and hoped that His Majesty would strictly investigate.Pulled uncle Guo into the water.

Cheng Yu thought to himself, there are quite a few people in the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple that Wen Luo stepped in.As long as there is no evidence, it can be easily fooled.The most troublesome thing is Yushitai's speech officials. Because of Chen Qing's death, Mr. Chen had a gap with his uncle, so how could he easily let go of this opportunity to avenge him with one arrow.

This matter caused a lot of trouble in the capital, and the case was found out. The Hanlin did give some silver to the examiner, but it was only a few thousand taels.And that Hanlin did give some to Wen Luo, but only 50 taels of silver.

When Cheng Yu heard this, he almost didn't spit out a mouthful of water.50 taels of silver, probably not even enough to meet Wen Luo's shoe-handler qualifications, so it's just a scam to children.

Originally, this case was not difficult to find out, but it took three or four months to close the case.The Hanlin was sentenced to death immediately, and the examiner was dismissed and exiled into the army.The rest of the people involved should also be sentenced, and should be exiled.All the onlookers were a little disappointed to see that no other big fish had been caught, and they couldn't help sighing that after all, he was the uncle of the country, and the backing behind him was strong.

Cheng Yu secretly shook his head.Although this case seemed to be full of wind and rain, the final result was that it was raised high and put down gently, and the sentence was neither serious nor serious.But it dragged on for three or four months, allowing the uncle of the dynasty to be regarded as a target, hanged for such a long time, and humiliated.

This matter caused ups and downs in the capital, with countless people coming and going, but only the Queen Mother was missing.

Some people with exquisite minds have been able to find something wrong in it.The big tree of the Wen family is afraid that it will fall soon.
