In the evening, Pei Lian and Zhao Yanchen went to He's house together.They didn't deal with each other in the court, and their tempers were even worse. Of course, the two of them had nothing to talk about in private.

Heng Dynasty is extremely tolerant to merchants, so merchants can be seen everywhere in the slightly prosperous state capital.Huaijing is at the foot of the emperor, with a population of one million. Although it is extremely prosperous, there are always poor families in the suburbs.

For example, the courtyard in front of them.

From the time they entered the village, the people watched and whispered because of their official uniforms, and even a group of young children chased their horses to play and play.

The He family was quite a sensation because of the drowning of their parents and children, and the village is not big, so it is easy to find out where they live.

A man who came back from the field with a hoe was more courageous, and said to Pei Lian, "Your Majesty wants to investigate the He family? It's just that it's really hard..."

After finishing speaking, the man was a little cautious.The grown-up next to him had a straight face, and it seemed that he was not easy to talk to.And the young man in front of him, with a face like a spring breeze, is intuitively closer, so he can't help calling him "Langjun" instead of a cold "adult".

Although the man is illiterate, he also knows that those who can wear scarlet official uniforms will not be small, or even quite big.The solemn purple-robed official is even more remarkable.

Pei Lian got off the horse, didn't pay attention to the address at all, and asked with a slight smile, "How is the He family?"

He has some rhetoric in this sentence.Don't directly ask if you are poor with a hint, but wait to pay attention to what the other party reveals subconsciously.

The man is honest and honest at first glance, how could he know this.Zhao Yanchen also lived in the officialdom, so he saw through the tricks right away.

Zhao Yanchen didn't want to be with Pei Lian, so he just went to the courtyard by himself, walked around a few chickens and ducks looking for food, and knocked on the dilapidated wooden door.

Not long after, the door opened from the inside.It was a woman dressed in starched blue cloth, her eyes and brows were full of wrinkles left by the sorrows of life.

It was He Shi who opened the door.

Suddenly seeing the official in a crimson round-collared robe, He subconsciously felt a little afraid, and hesitated, "May I ask you, sir..."

Zhao Yanchen intentionally restrained his serious expression, and slightly cupped his hands, "Censor Zhongcheng, Zhao Yanchen."

Paying attention to Zhao Yanchen's movements, Pei Lian patiently listened to the words of He's neighbors, and responded one by one.I'm just surprised that none of these words said anything bad about the He couple.

"Although it is poor, it is really wrong to drown your parents and children. Even if..."

The aunt who was carrying the vegetable basket couldn't help sighing, and was about to continue talking when she suddenly remembered that she was facing an official, so she stopped her mouth resentfully.Although this adult seems to be friendly and friendly, but in the end his identity is different.

However, if the other party didn't say anything, Pei Lian could guess a little bit.Thinking of the little beggar he met before the Great Court Meeting, he couldn't help but look at He's dilapidated courtyard again.

While talking, a child could be heard faintly crying in He's house, and the aunt even sighed, "It must be He's three-year-old girl crying again. It was not easy at all, and now the man has been arrested by the government." , I still don’t know how to live, what a crime!”

Here, Chen Juncong went through the files in Dali Temple carefully, and after confirming that the files were correct in Zhang Wenyu's resentful eyes, he watched the sun slanting across the sky through the window, and then got up to say goodbye.

From Dali Temple to Meng Ruanqing's mansion, the sky has already darkened slightly.Chen Juncong then told Meng Ruanqing about Lin Qingqing in Dali Temple today, and after discussing with him, he decided to use this to expose Yang Qiyu.

The two of them knew very well that once the opening was torn, Pei Lian would be the one who would bear the brunt of being drowned by saliva.The first emperor also saw the disadvantages of the Heng Dynasty, but before he took action, he was "aborted" because of the opposition of many civil servants at that time.Most of those who opposed have now become the mainstay of the court, and Liu Hanqiu is one of them.

When riding back home, facing the night market full of fireworks, Chen Juncong was full of thoughts.What he cares about is that tomorrow's spring will release the list, after all, it will be the last night of calm.

"Lang Jun is back."

The drowsy domestic servant who was guarding the door heard the sound of the horse's hooves, and immediately cheered up and went up with a lantern.

Chen Juncong let go of the reins, and a servant took the horse to the stable to feed the fodder.

The servant led the way by the candlelight of the lantern, and kept saying, "A man came today, claiming to be your elder brother."

Chen Juncong was startled, temporarily concealing his exhaustion, and tried his best to cheer up and asked, "When did it happen?"

The servant slowly explained again, "I came here at the end of the day, and brought a six or seven-year-old child with me, who looked like a father and son. I wanted to arrange for them to rest in the guest room, but I didn't want that person to insist on waiting for you in the main hall."

If it was said that he was suspicious of the visitor, Chen Juncong was convinced after hearing the child in the servant's mouth.Counting from the year he left his hometown to Chunwei in the capital, Brother Ning should be at this age.

After entering the main hall, I saw a figure sitting on a wooden chair waiting patiently with a cup of tea, as expected.

"Brother."

Chen Juncong spoke warmly first.I have been away from home for three years, and I don't feel homesick on weekdays, but now seeing my brother, my heart suddenly filled with childhood memories, and my eyes are sore and uncomfortable.

Hearing the sound, Chen Junming came back to his senses and raised his eyes to look up, and instantly stood up with joy beyond words.

"Six Lang."
