Datang traitor

After listening to Changsun Wuji's narration, several ministers looked at Qin Yuan with meaningful eyes.

Since the pre-Qin period, princes and ministers have used cars to reflect their status.To this day, riding a car or riding a horse for an official is not only a simple expression of status, but also a kind of etiquette.Officials who don't know how to cherish their own decency are similar to the situation when scholars run to scold the street, as if they are "outstanding among the crowd", and make others ashamed to be with such people.

Fang Xuanling hurriedly rescued Qin Yuan, and asked him in time: "Don't you have a horse?"

Qin Yuan didn't have time to open his mouth, the eunuch had already come to spread the word, and announced that all the officials had an audience.

Changsun Wuji asked Qin Yuan to wait for orders here, while his roommate Xuanling and others first went to the Liangyi Hall to have an audience.

Today's weather is good, cloudless, the sun is shining on the body to warm but not hot, making people feel lazy and comfortable.And in the forbidden area of ​​the palace, one of the most obvious benefits is tranquility.

Because Qin Yuan's residence was very close to a main road in Chang'an City, he could hear the bustle of the market from dawn.So at this moment, he really enjoys the feeling of basking in the sun quietly.

Not long after, Qin Yuan heard arguing in the hall, after which he vaguely heard someone mention Wei Zheng.Then, Qin Yuan saw Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Chu Suiliang and others leaving the Liangyi Hall one after another. Everyone's complexion was not very good, as if the matter had not been negotiated.

After Fang Xuanling walked a few steps, he murmured to Du Ruhui in a low voice, lamenting that he shouldn't have mentioned Wei Zheng at the critical moment of decision.

Du Ru asked Fang Xuanling why.

"I happened to meet yesterday. The sage ate a few more mouthfuls of melon. He had a stomachache and asked the imperial doctor. When Wei Gong heard about it, he ran to persuade him." Fang Xuanling whispered to Du Ruhui.

"It's just a stomachache, what's there to say about it?" Du Ruhui asked again.

"This is where we are inferior to him. It's unexpected, isn't it? Small things are out of control, and it's okay to extend it to big things? Besides, he is really worried about the saint's body. The country cannot live without a king." Fang Xuanling said Saying this, I thought in my heart that being an emperor is really not easy, and even a few mouthfuls of gluttony are easily framed by the courtiers with "Zhihu Zheye".

Wei Zheng has a profound talent and knowledge, and he can quote a lot of examples and lessons from others when discussing things. Most people can't say enough about him.Since you can't say it, it makes sense. As an enlightened and tolerant monarch, you must listen to his advice.

Du Ruhui repeatedly agreed, reviewing his nonsense just now.

Several people left afterward, and Fang Xuanling gave Qin Yuan a special look before leaving, intending to make him take care of himself.

Qin Yuan nodded slightly to Fang Xuanling, as a way of expressing his gratitude.

"Xuan Qinyuan sees you!"

Finally it was his turn.

Qin Yuan took a breath slowly, and walked into the hall with gentle steps.

Li Shimin had already listened to Changsun Wuji's explanation, and deeply felt that it was inappropriate for Qin Yuan to walk all the way to the imperial city in official uniform.

Originally, it was a bit inappropriate for Changsun Wuji to complain to a small official because of his fault.But Li Shimin changed his mind and thought that Qin Yuan's official position was made by himself, and Changsun Wuji probably cared about his feelings, so he explained it this way, so Li Shimin understood Changsun Wuji's move.

When Qin Yuan came in, Li Shimin had no expression on his face. He put his hand on his forehead and looked at him indifferently, with a completely business-like attitude. He only asked Qin Yuan if he had any complaints about the dismissal.

"I came back from Yongzhou Mansion yesterday, and was suddenly attacked by someone, and the horse was injured. When I set out this morning, I saw that the wound on the horse's buttocks was still bleeding, and I really couldn't bear to ride him. It just so happened that I ate too much breakfast this morning, and I was a little overwhelmed." Anyway, it’s early to think about it, and it’s not bad to digest food while walking. The strange minister didn’t think carefully, and he forgot the etiquette system at that time. Thanks to the reminder from the elder grandson, he suddenly realized that his move was wrong. The minister pleaded guilty! The minister is willing to be punished! "

Qin Yuan's attitude of admitting his mistakes was quite sincere.

These words revealed four meanings: first, Qin Yuan went to Yongzhou Mansion last night, and the reason aroused Li Shimin's curiosity; second, he said that the horse was injured, which brought out Qin Yuan's compassion; It made Li Shimin feel the same way. Fourth, Qin Yuan temporarily changed to walk to Hongwen Museum, but he was not late, which reflected that he had the habit of arriving early and was more diligent in doing things.

Li Shimin was really moved by Qin Yuan's words.Li Shimin first asked Qin Yuan why he went to Yongzhou Mansion last night, and when he learned that Yongzhou Mansion encountered a strange case yesterday, Li Shimin asked about the whole process of the case by the way.Later, he felt that the case was really strange, and immediately sent someone to ask Yongzhou Mansion to report it.

Li Shimin turned his head to Changsun Wuji and said, "He will be sympathetic to injured horses, which shows that he has a heart of compassion. If such a person becomes an official, there is absolutely no need to worry that he will not benefit the people in the future. Besides, he was a good man last night." In order to help Wen Yanbo investigate the case, his horse was in an accident. Considering the special circumstances and the first offense, this matter can be forgotten."

Changsun Wuji was stunned, not because he was slow to react, but because the situation he encountered today exceeded his expectations.Changsun Wuji originally thought that his majestic uncle would be as easy as crushing an ant to a ninth-rank official.As a result, things were completely reversed now. Not only was Qin Yuan not punished, but he also won the emperor's praise and attention.

He is not complaining here, he is clearly recommending Qin Yuan!

Li Shimin continued to say to his eldest grandson Wuji: "No matter what happens in the future, ask the reason before making a decision. It is a good thing to prevent minor changes in the past, but it is also necessary to avoid making a fuss out of a molehill. Just say that it is delicious to eat a few more bites, what is the big deal? It would be boring to involve the people of any country with such trivial matters, right?"

"Yes yes yes." Changsun Wuji didn't know that Li Shimin was dissatisfied because of Wei Zheng's admonition, he was distracted by Qin Yuan, so he didn't distract too much when responding to Li Shimin.

"Eating is caused by human nature. People regard food as their heaven. If a person doesn't like to eat for a day, he will almost die. If anyone even wants to control people's food, then it is really unreasonable." Qin Yuan agreed with Li Shimin's words very much, and was very distracted.

Li Shimin was a little unhappy because his eldest grandson Wuji was perfunctory.What Qin Yuan said at this time made Li Shimin, who was eager to find a sense of approval, seem to have found a confidant.Li Shimin immediately lamented that Qin Yuan's words were good, because his mood was relieved for a while, so the volume was a bit raised.

Only then did Changsun Wuji realize that something was wrong with Li Shimin today.

Changsun Wuji wanted to intervene again, but found that Li Shimin was staring at Qin Yuan with bright eyes, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.Changsun Wuji couldn't understand, Qin Yuan just said a nonsense just now, is it worth being so important to him as a saint?

"I heard that you were full this morning. Tell me, what good food did you eat?" Li Shimin's face was gloomy all morning, but at this moment a smile finally appeared, and he was still in the mood to talk to Qin Yuan about the daily routine.

"I'm ashamed to say that I prefer to eat melons, so I ate a melon in the morning." Qin Yuan replied.

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, and smiled at Qin Yuan: "Coincidentally, I also love melons. But if I eat a few more mouthfuls of this thing, I feel uncomfortable."

"I used to eat a lot of melons, and my stomach was like this. But recently, I bought a melon in the West Market. I can eat as much as I can. It's crispy, sweet and delicious. I feel happy when I eat it. What will I do after this?" Everyone is energetic." Qin Yuan continued to chat with Li Shimin, "I guess it might be because his land is good, and the melons he grows don't hurt people's taste."

Li Shimin was very tempted, and felt that he wanted to taste it too.

Qin Yuan immediately told Li Shimin that the next time he met the farmer who set up a stall selling goods, he would buy it and present it to the saint.

Changsun Wuji was by the side for a long time unable to intervene, but seeing the opportunity now, he immediately said: "What's the difficulty? If you tell me where he is, I'll send someone to find him and get the property right away."

Li Shimin frowned slightly, and after glancing at Changsun Wuji, he told him not to worry about this matter, just get some melons, why bother to work a prince himself to go out and waste a lot of trouble.

In fact, Li Shimin was worried that if Zhangsun Wuji came to do this matter, it would attract Wei Zheng's idea. If Wei Zheng heard him talk about himself again about eating melons, Li Shimin would really have a headache.He really just wanted to eat a few mouthfuls of melon.

Li Shimin just ordered Qin Yuan to handle the matter without saying anything.

Changsun Wuji opened his eyes wide in disbelief.His brother-in-law actually chose Qin Yuan between him and the ninth-rank petty official Qin Yuan!

After Qin Yuan happily received the decree, he immediately promised to handle this matter in a low-key manner.Qin Yuan specially emphasized the word "low-key" to further cater to Li Shimin's heart.The more Li Shimin looked at Qin Yuan, the more satisfied he felt, and he first made a small contribution to Qin Yuan in his heart, and when there was something good that could benefit him later, he would naturally think about him first.

After Changsun Wuji and Qin Yuan resigned together, Qin Yuan specially saluted Changsun Wuji to express his gratitude, thanking him for "recommending" himself in front of the saint.

After Qin Yuan left, Changsun Wuji stomped his feet angrily while no one was paying attention.

In the afternoon, Qin Yuan was sorting out the books in the Hongwen Library, when he suddenly received a message from the Ministry of Officials, asking him to go to Yongzhou Mansion to work tomorrow.Qin Yuan guessed that it should be because of the case of Yongzhou Mansion, Wen Yanbo asked the Holy Master for instructions to bring him over.

Li Yuanjing just came to look for Qin Yuan, and it was a pity to hear this.He thought that he would be able to play with Qin Yuan every day when he came to Hongwen Hall to study, but Qin Yuan was transferred away in just a few days.

After Qin Yuan finished the handover work, he went to find Fang Ding to go home together, but was told that Fang Ding didn't come to Hongwen Museum at all today.

"By the way, School Secretary Qin knows him well. Why don't you go and see what's going on. If he has something to do with his family, he should ask someone to ask for leave. If he doesn't come so quietly, he will be punished!"

Qin Yuan agreed and borrowed a horse from Li Yuanjing when he left.

After arriving at Fang Ding's house, Qin Yuan got off his horse and knocked on the door, but no one answered for a long time.Qin Yuan shouted: "Fang Ding, are you at home? Is there anyone at home? I am Fang Ding's colleague in Hongwen Museum, and my name is Qin Yuan."

Not long after these words fell, there was movement in the house, and Qin Yuan listened carefully to the sound of footsteps.Then the door opened, and Qin Yuan saw Fang Ding. Behind him were two women, one old and one young, who seemed to be Fang Ding's wife and mother.The three have their right hands behind their backs.When they saw Qin Yuan, there was an unnatural smile on their faces.

"Qin Yuan, you are here, please come in." Fang Ding stared straight at Qin Yuan, and stretched out his left hand to signal him to enter the courtyard.

Qin Yuan felt that Fang Ding's eyes were a little strange, as if something was wrong.Wary, he took a step back.

"Come in!" Fang Ding's wife and mother shouted to Qin Yuan in unison.

Qin Yuan took another two steps back.

Seeing this, the three suddenly swung the knives they hid behind their backs and rushed towards Qin Yuan.
