That little fly

Shui Qingqian established a military formation model with a rigorous structure and a complete mathematical argument. Even if a good foundation for this military formation has been laid, there may be many reasons for the poor initial practice results, and it will be fine to correct it slowly in the future.Moreover, unlike the idealism of total annihilation demanded by Shui Qingqian, in the eyes of veterans, it is already against the sky that fifty infantry can kill thirty or forty 'cavalry'. The color changed drastically, and the bear boy was taken away.The correction effect of the military array needs to be tested slowly. Although Shui Qingqian is staring at this matter every day, he also feels that there should be no useful results years ago.

A few days ago, he was suddenly summoned by the palace. According to Eunuch Xing’s gossip, the tributes from various places at the end of the year have been counted, and the officials asked him to pick some good things to praise the child for his hard work and obedience this year. ... Shui Qingqian was so happy that he jumped three feet high. He still remembered that the parents mentioned that they would give rewards, and the premise was 'excellent academic performance'.The exams in books have always been insta-kill. Needless to say, he mainly designed and improved firearms, graduated from the Habayashi Guards with honors, and the current military formation... didn't really work out, but it's still a grade. Extraordinary, right?

After receiving the summons, Shui Qingqian stepped on the spot and entered the palace the next day.The meals in the military department are good, but they don't prepare fruits and snacks for snacks.Shui Qingqian was busy at the military headquarters all morning, staring at the lunch time before rushing to the palace.In the winter, as soon as you enter the door, you will get a bunch of fresh, frost-red and purple grapes.Look, do you know what the gap is?He picked up two pieces and threw them into his mouth, and when he turned around, eight of his favorite palace snacks were also served.

It was almost lunch time, and the official family was still holding a big court meeting ahead, and Shui Qingqian took Eunuch Xing to chat and gossip.He thought it was almost the end of the year, so he shouldn't be too busy. Why is the Great Court Meeting not over yet?Even in normal times, the Great Court Meeting will not be delayed.The Dachaohui does not deal with specific practical affairs, and the real official affairs are all resolved in the cabinet, the center and the six ministries.Therefore, unless there is a major event that requires cross-departmental negotiation, the Great Court will be a bit of a formality and will not last for a long time.Hey, is it the end-of-the-year summary awards?At the end of Shui Qingqian's words, she thought of a possibility and asked another question.

"Where is it?" Eunuch Xing said with a gossip on his face, "The assassination case of His Highness King Qin is being discussed in the hall."

Shui Qingqian was upset when she heard this, and hummed in a muffled voice, "Isn't the case closed?"

Eunuch Xing knew very little. He also heard that the yamen had already given the result of the assassination of King Qin, but he didn't know the details. He just heard that the court would discuss it today.Eunuch Xing didn't know, but Shui Qingqian knew the official investigation results in detail, and the officials notified Qin Wang Ji Zhao of the results half a month ago.Although Ji Zhao had long stated that he would not intervene in the investigation of the incident, if there was any wink at the yamen, he would promptly report the progress to His Highness King Qin.Therefore, when the yamen really found out who was behind the scenes, Ji Zhao was the first to know the news. Because Shui Qingqian had been messing around with his brother Zhao these days, he was also the first to get the result.After listening to the conclusion of the investigation, Shui Qingqian really wanted to smear the bowl of soup and medicine in his hand on the opponent's face: Are you kidding me?

The investigators are all veteran criminals, and they have done their best to do their duty during the investigation. After all kinds of follow-up and elimination of countless tricks, finally, the sword of the mastermind behind the scenes pointed at the three men in Changwu Boleng's residence in Wangu Lane. Young Master, internal sources say that the case handling office has solid evidence in hand, which shows that Third Young Master Leng provided the assassin with travel convenience and a hidden residence.

So, this counts as finding the mastermind behind the scenes?

Yes, no.

If the third young master Leng has never traveled far, has no official status, no prestige, and an ordinary high-ranking son, can contact the assassins in southern borders, protect the assassins to the hunting grounds, and especially find out the whereabouts of Qin Wang Ji Zhao, it is two hundred and five It feels insulting to the IQ to say the inference.But if Changwu Bo Leng Mansion is the wife of Qi Wang Ji Ming, and Third Young Master Leng is the cousin of Princess Qi, it is not surprising that Third Young Master Leng can do those things.

He intends to assassinate the first-rank prince, and there are all the witnesses and material evidence, so the third young master Leng cannot escape.But he is a pawn, or a mastermind behind the scenes. Does Uncle Leng know about his grandson's behavior? Does Wangji Qi know? It is impossible to leave any evidence on paper and witnesses in private, as long as Leng San does not speak, the Leng family insists that the young master Leng San is young and ignorant, and has a second-year illness. There is no way to continue climbing up.As the idler of the family, Leng San was pushed out to be cannon fodder. At most, Leng's family would be stripped of officials and confiscated, and those with a little more distant family relationship might even retire, not to mention King Qi who turned another corner.Therefore, King Qin almost lost his life, and Shui Qingqian was forced to contaminate human life. In the end, all the crimes fell on an insignificant pawn.

Shui Qingqian: Who are you hitting in the face?

Of course, this kind of result makes Shui Qingqian unhappy, but according to the latest revision of the Imperial Code of Criminal Law, there is really no way for the murder charge to be involved in the entire Lengfu and His Royal Highness King Qi.This has nothing to do with the ability of the officials who investigate the case. It has something to do with Shui Qingqian to find out the ugly Yinmao.

It was the big treason case of the Gao Mansion a few years ago that ended with the bloodbath of the whole family.There is a lot of inside information in it, and when the case is finally settled, no matter how well-founded it is in terms of legal principles, how many people's selfishness and interests are mixed in, everyone in the case knows it well.So the routine of "Zhu Lian" is really cruel. Even those who have benefited will inevitably feel a little bit sad afterwards. Many family members were innocently involved and killed.Hundreds of people died in one case. How should I put it, killing too many people is against the peace of heaven.Written in the history books, Jiayou's reputation after death will be affected.

Times have changed, and many people feel a little bit regretful in their hearts. They didn't want to reverse the case against the Gaofu, but this kind of "company connection" really makes people feel a sense of desolation.Therefore, within two years of the Gaofu incident, the small thoughts of many people in the situation once again reached a unity of contradictions, and the criminal law revised under the leadership of Shi Ke was successfully passed.Naturally, in order to achieve a deterrent effect, the traditional idea that one person commits crimes and the whole family suffers is still there, but the scope and degree of "the whole family suffers" has been greatly reduced.Take the ready-made Lengfu as an example.Leng San committed the crime of treason, and the evidence is conclusive.His father, mother, wife, and son will be implicated and classified as criminals, slaves and handmaidens, but at least their lives are still alive.The uncles and brothers in the family, if they are stripped of their titles, lost their officials and demoted to common people, they will be able to reach the heavens. Not only will they have their lives, but even their family wealth will not be confiscated. If you return to your hometown to be a farmer, you can still take the imperial examination after two generations Upper class.So you see, this Jiayou dynasty focuses on benevolent governance, how magnanimous it is.

After hearing the results of the investigation, Shui Qingqian felt as if someone had pinched his nose and poured a mouthful of dead flies, which made him sick to death.Leng Sanshao is undoubtedly a villain, but the law stipulates that there is nothing he can do if he is not convinced.His grandfather Shi Ke led the revision of the law code, and this incident cannot overthrow the cornerstone of the law revision.Shui Qingqian ran to An (Ji) to comfort (Plan) Ji (Repay) Zhao (Recovery), but His Royal Highness King Qin's performance was secretive, and he even comforted the little bird.

After clearing the water, I figured it out.

Brother Zhao said to let go of it at the beginning, probably because he expected today's result.Even if one of his brothers was planning behind the scenes, could they really be held accountable?Even if the prince is really blamed, can the patriarch of the official family's spoiled child, Xiong, really kill his relatives righteously?Therefore, the grievances on the surface will eventually turn into compromises and benefits off the surface. This is the "rarely confused" in political wisdom.As a rookie, Shui Qingqian doesn't have such far-reaching political vision. He only knows that since Brother Zhao accepts the compromise, he doesn't have to jump up and down on this matter.So, this case was closed half a month ago, and the law is not even under the control of Emperor Jiayou and the central cabinet. Why is it still being discussed by the Dachao today?

More than discussion?After lunch, Shui Qingqian did not wait until the end of the court meeting.The official family did not let the child go hungry. The chief manager Qingli sent a message early to go to the imperial dining room to arrange lunch for Shui Qingqian. After he finished eating, there was a side hall for him to take a nap. When Shui Qingqian woke up, unexpectedly, unexpectedly The Great Court Meeting is not over yet, is the empire about to go bankrupt?

Officials and important ministers did not adjourn the meeting, but the Xiaohuangmen changed posts, so Shui Qingqian also got the first-hand gossip from the Chaohui: the Dachaohui has been choking on the assassination of King Qin.

Lengfu's third grandson is responsible?

Has nothing to do with Leng Mansion or His Royal Highness King Qi?

Pooh!

Today the emperor's fourth son Han Wang Jichang made his appearance at the court meeting: the case can't just be closed like this!After that, King Han pushed King Qi out, and his second brother, His Highness King Qi, was behind the scenes!

Reason one, King Qi once told him that a group of murderous people from southern Xinjiang came to the imperial capital with evil intentions.Upon receiving such news, instead of reminding the ninth younger brother Ji Zhao, King Qi told the fourth younger brother Ji Chang. What does it mean?

Evidence [-]: Han Wang Ji Chang, who was taught by his father for many years, understands filial piety, knows etiquette and righteousness, and is respectful to brothers and friends. He did not act according to King Qi's hints. Don't do things that your loved ones hurt your enemies... Don't say that King Han's empty words are empty, Ji Chang has a number of letters of advice between him and King Qi.

Reason and Evidence [-]: A few days ago, when the investigation team pointed the finger at Leng Sanshao, during a sensitive period, King Qi gave King Han two boxes of heavy gifts. Zi Manyue's excuse to send such an expensive gift, saying that it was not a hush money, who would believe it?

After many days of ideological struggle, Han Wang, although his role in this incident was not glorious, but in the end justice overwhelmed his sense of shame. Based on the condemnation of his conscience, he decided to stand up, restore the truth of the incident, and kill his relatives righteously. Ha ha ha ha ha... Shui Qingqian watched Xiao Huangmen's storytelling performance there, although he felt that his performance art was a bit exaggerated in some places, but the situation was probably like this.The fact that the Great Court can be dragged on for so long is entirely due to the fighting between the forces of King Qi and King Han.One scolded the other party for nonsense, while the other said he was justified.If you present evidence on one side, it will be framed on the other.In Xiaohuangmen's excellent singing and reciting performance, the officials, His Royal Highness Qin Wang and the important ministers of the central cabinet did not appear at all.Probably, Shui Qingqian guessed, they are the people who eat melons

Tch, it's boring.

Shui Qingqian stretched her waist, took two boxes of palace snacks and walked out, "I'm going to Honghu Pavilion." The implication is, when the official comes back, remember to send someone to call me to pick out gifts.

Honghu Pavilion is the royal private library. The emperor read and wrote when he was free. Maybe he even taught his children and grandchildren to read. It is Honghu Pavilion.Say it's confidential, there are normal guards at the door; say it's not confidential, but not everyone can come.Shui Qingqian went to Honghu Pavilion to pass the time. The books here, in addition to the ones mentioned before, also have various miscellaneous books on customs and culture. Stacking up the bound letters of Emperor Wu talking about family matters with his ministers.

Shui Qingqian found a comfortable place for herself, placed the snacks on the table, then turned around and walked to the nearest bookshelf, "Xiaoya", "Nine Songs", "Yin Yang and Five Elements", "The World", "Xing Ya Tang" Leisure Pen"...Huh?The water is clear and shallow, and the books are all written by the sages of the feudal lords period. This Xing Ya Tang's free writing is very messy.Xing Yatang, why does he feel that this name sounds familiar?Shui Qingqian picked up the book, opened the title page, there was an inscription and postscript introduction, Zhang's Gongming, over sixty years old, suddenly dreamed back to his childhood last night...

"That's right." Shui Qingqian patted his forehead, he thought about it, the face of De Zong Dynasty, the last Fei Tian'er who appeared in the court hall and could verify his body, the last Fei Tian'er blood of the Four Heavenly Mansions, tomorrow The place where they live together is called Xingyatang.It is said that after the death of Xiang Xiang, only the patriarch of the Zhang family can move into Xingyatang, so over time, outsiders can hear the name of Xingyatang.

Having lived in the imperial capital for so long, Shui Qingqian really didn't inquire about the legend of this senior.Anyway, he is also a real flying star. According to Mingxiang's reputation in history books and some historical records, Shui Qingqian still feels a little strange. Why are all the descendants of his family all incompetent and narrow-minded? The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.He sat down with the book and began to read it, which was Mingxiang's own personal recollection.

Unlike Shui Qingqian's imagined phoenix egg, Mingxiang's family was very difficult when he was young.

The Zhang family is flourishing, how can a bowl of water be flat?The glamorous ones have always been only the few people who are the main branch and the first branch.They believed that the purer Fei Tian'er's blood was, the greater the possibility of receiving the inheritance in the future, but with the intention of casting a net everywhere and focusing on selection, they wished that the young master in the first branch would accept concubines and concubines, so that after a few generations, there would be Many ethnic groups have been marginalized.Mingxiang's father was such a marginalized person. His parents who died young left him with a glamorous surname and a place to shelter from the wind and rain, but the attitude of the Zhang family, a wealthy imperial family, towards him could be called indifferent.That's right, as a side branch, according to the understanding of the Four Heavenly Mansions, Fei Tian'er's blood on Mingxiang's father is thin and has no practical value. He can have a tile to cover his head, and he can learn a few words in the family. A rare mercy and favor to his children.

Mingxiang's father was from a poor family, and Mingxiang's mother was even worse. She was a refugee fleeing famine and was rescued by Mingxiang's father by accident... Mingxiang didn't say much about his parents, but from his warm memories of his childhood According to the description, Shui Qingqian thinks that Mingxiang's parents must have a very good relationship.Based on Shui Qingqian's knowledge of Fei Tian'er's bloodline and inheritance, he felt that Mingxiang's Fei Tian'er aptitude originated from this.Fortunately, his father was poor, fortunately his father was marginalized by the family, so he was not matched by Lalang, so his father had enough time to meet the person he liked, spend his life hand in hand with the person he liked, and gave birth to Mingxiang.

'If you find the right person, your child can receive the inheritance. 'Dad Shui taught me this when I was very young.Shui Qingqian didn't understand much at the time, but now that he's grown up, he seems to understand: Whether Fei Tian'er can accept the inheritance has nothing to do with the purity of blood, it requires the harmony of the hearts of both parents.From this perspective, Fei Tian'er's qualifications are 'natural'.

Probably because of the poor life and lack of medical treatment, Mingxiang's parents died of illness when he was 13 years old. As a member of the more marginalized Zhang clan, Mingxiang had to go to the market to do part-time jobs to earn money. Well, his experience is very rich: Big bags, running through halls, helping people pour out ashes in winter, and helping people find out in summer... Later, he was recruited by a caravan of darts, even if he found a regular job.How about reading ten thousand volumes of books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles? Ming Xiang didn’t read any sages and great Confucians at that time, but after traveling all over the world, you can feel that his obscure mind has broadened and matured. .Ming Xiang wrote a lot about his experience in darts, happy, lively, thrilling, and embarrassing.Shui Qingqian could feel the joy he felt when he wrote this memory, even if it was some experiences of being bullied that seemed aggrieved at the time.

Shui Qingqian feels a bit strange because he clearly recorded how beautiful the tofu Xi Shi in Pixian County is, and the crispy twisted dough from a certain store in the back alley of the Grand Theater melts in the mouth... such trivial things as sesame and mung beans, but He kept a secret about why he came to the place of inheritance on a whim.Logically speaking, Ming Xiang should think that his blood is thin and he cannot accept inheritance, but at the age of nineteen, he made a special trip to Straw Hat Town and spent almost half of his savings to hire a team of hunters to protect him. The second peak and the third peak of the big peak, and then reach the cliff, and jump...

Seeing this, Shui Qingqian couldn't help but look up to the sky and be speechless, this child is really a second child!Two tigers, two tigers!

Shui Qingqian knows what inheritance is all about, so he can stand and talk without pain in his back, but ordinary people who eat melons may feel that this description of Mingxiang is mysterious and profound. Such a detailed written record is like a peerless martial art. The cheats are average, making those who read here feel like a treasure.Shui Qingqian is not nonsense. This book has been read for more than 100 years. I don’t know how many people have read it. There is also a key line with a red pen tick next to the line.In this regard, Shui Qingqian was a little speechless.Because this description is really vague, using Chunqiu brushwork, Ming Xiang said lightly that when he stood on the top of the cliff, he felt a "warm mother's call" in the whistling cold wind, and then walked forward in a daze One step, one foot in the air...then gone.Afterwards, after he accepted the inheritance, he returned to the imperial capital to take the imperial examination and so on.

Shui Qingqian thought that next, he would see a big counterattack by a poor boy, and the whole process of slapping those who had stepped on him in the face was like the most seductive and passionate story in a market storybook. bridge section.But obviously, Mingxiang's mind has become more mature due to the hardships of his youth and his experience in darts for several years.In the following self-report, there is no deliberate slap in the face of the overlord.Mingxiang didn't even take the initiative to go back to the family to declare his "extraordinary". He returned to the imperial capital silently, spent three months reading books silently, and then took the examinations for children, candidates, and general examinations.

Mingxiang is also very good. If he wants, he can skip all the previous exams and start directly from the general exam. After passing the exam, he can take the palace exam, and then be awarded an official or something. This is a kind of privilege granted by the imperial court to the noble family.Not to mention that he has already accepted the inheritance, so he is really flying into the sky. If the court and Tianren Mansion knew the truth at that time, wouldn't it be the same as being beaten?Isn't that the case with Shui Qingqian? If he and Yuan Mu had taken Enke together last time, wouldn't he start from childhood like ordinary people?He doesn't even know how to take the provincial examination, so he has to take the examination directly. If the officials don't pay attention to it, it is not impossible for him to skip the general examination and directly participate in the palace examination.

Ming Xiang didn't show off his identity or his family, he went to take the exam in obscurity, passed five tests and killed six generals.But the more you go up, the more obvious his identity will be. At least, he will try to verify his identity. You were born in the Zhang family, and then you will try to win the first place. It is already very eye-catching.After the imperial examination, I passed it again under the eyes of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.It wasn't mentioned in the autobiography, but Shui Qingqian knew that, at least from the rumors he had heard in the world, Ming Xiang was the romantic character described by Zhilan Yushu.Such a character, who was born in the Mansion of Heaven and Man, from a passer-by to a dazzling halo, how could he not be searched for his past life by three feet of human flesh?His past was not a major confidential matter, and the imperial court could get a large number of people's confessions by casually checking.So, the evidence is conclusive and the context is clear, where is this living Feitian going?All kinds of relatives in the Four Great Celestial Mansions swarmed up, and all the stars supported the moon.

Fei Tian'er, this is a true Fei Tian'er who is not yet married!

From the moment he entered the court, almost all of the following are Spring and Autumn strokes, and one line of characters can skip more than ten years. The only two details are short stories that happened with Dezong.Who knows, maybe Mingxiang thinks that when a person is in the court, what he says and does is naturally recorded in the official version of the history book, so he doesn't think it's necessary to bother?Or, life after growing up should be boring and dull?

Ming Xiang was already in his 60s when he started writing this biography, but this whole book vividly and vividly describes his hard life in the first 20 years, but his success and status later became a boring few language.Shui Qingqian had some ideas, but didn't know how to describe them.In this autobiography, Mingxiang did not write about his own family affairs, but as we all know, Mingxiang has three wives with equal status, and they are equally shared. One family in Tianren Mansion is really impartial. Then he gave birth to four boys and two girls , Not all of them are from the wife, there are concubines and concubines here, it is really a group of wives and concubines, with both sons and daughters.Mingxiang finally died of old age, full of children and grandchildren, and left his name in history, he can be called a big winner in life in the eyes of the world.

As a Fei Tian'er who has already accepted the inheritance, Shui Qingqian wonders what Mingxiang thinks at that time, does he hate those leech-like relatives?What kind of idea did he have in one go to marry three... er no, Na, three wives?Ming Xiang never "married" a wife in his life, and the three wives who were equal in status should be counted as concubines in legal terms, but in the secular sense, everyone tacitly regarded them as wives, and no one doubted this.Probably only Shui Qingqian, after reading Mingxiang’s memoirs more than 100 years later, felt Mingxiang’s unspoken compromise, disdain, or mocking?

Facts also proved that those concubines were wrong.Mingxiang's own bloodline, four sons and two daughters, none of them have reached the qualifications to accept the inheritance, and the grandsons and great-grandsons behind him... until the Zhang family's extinction, no Fei Tian'er was born.Mingxiang left this autobiography, which seems to have left the inheritance information, but without any key points. Ren Tianren's mansion went further and further on the fork in the road, and finally collapsed... Is it unfeeling, is it a pity, is Ming relative to the four Tianren Mansion has been very benevolent and righteous.Without him, the Four Heavenly Mansions would probably have declined in his era.At that time, the inheritance had been broken for several generations, and the legends about the existence of the Four Heavenly Mansions in name only began to appear since then. To be honest, everyone almost believed it.But when the sky resounded, the bright face appeared on the stage, because of his birth, the confidence and future of the four great heavenly mansions returned, and it seemed to prove that as long as there is blood, no matter how thin it is, it is possible to become another hope.In the following 100 years, the Tianren Mansion, which once again broke the inheritance, did not look dilapidated at all, because everyone had one thought: What if!Who knows that one day another Fei Tian'er will be born in their four major families.
