Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 213 Imperial Examination Young Husband

In the evening, when Xiao Zimo came back from his office, he looked at Mother Xiao with a smile all over his face and said, "Mother, Brother Bai is coming to our house for dinner later, so you can tell the kitchen to make him some sweet and sour pork ribs, which he loves the most." Eat this."

Mother Xiao saw that he was so concerned about Wu Bai, her heart skipped a beat, and she asked anxiously, "Zimo, tell Wei Niang honestly, what is your relationship with Wu Bai?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zimo was taken aback for a moment, and then he observed his mother's expression to make sure that the other party was aware of his relationship with Wu Bai, and then he said: "Mother, Brother Bai and I are classmates and friends, but we are friends. Really delusional about him.”

"What?" Mother Xiao turned pale with shock.

She originally had guesses in her heart, but the guesses were guesses after all. Now that it was confirmed that this was not her wild imagination, Xiao's mother's heart suddenly became chaotic.

"Mother." Xiao Zimo quickly supported her.

Mother Xiao pushed him away, slowly left the hall, and returned to her room.

Xiao's father saw that her expression was not right, so he quickly asked her what happened. Xiao's mother was at a loss and didn't know how to deal with this matter, so she told Xiao's father.

"Zimo really admitted to you that he likes Wu Bai?" Father Xiao said with a face full of shock.

"Of course it's true. I can still lie to you. What do you think should be done now?" Mother Xiao said with a bitter face.

"Don't panic, I'll go to him and ask him clearly." Father Xiao comforted him.

"Yeah." Mother Xiao nodded first, and then she repented: "No, I'll go with you."

The couple came to Xiao Zimo's yard, and the servants said that Xiao Zimo was in the study, so they went towards the study.

"Come in." Xiao Zimo ordered, he thought it was someone knocking on the door.

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother pushed the door and walked in. Xiao Zimo saw that it was them, and hurriedly stood up to greet them.

"Father, mother."

"Your mother just said..." Father Xiao just started.

Xiao Zimo nodded and admitted: "Mother is right, the child really likes Brother Bai."

"Then Wu Bai is a man, what will you do in the future? And what will he do in the future? Have you thought about this?" Father Xiao was calmer than Mother Xiao, he asked.

"These kids have thought about it, and they really don't want to miss Brother Bai." Xiao Zimo said firmly.

"Since you have thought about it, tell me what you will do when you grow old." Father Xiao asked.

"Now that I have Ziyu, I trust him," Xiao Zimo said.

"Are you really Wu Bai?" Father Xiao asked persistently.

"Yes, the child must have him."

"No regrets?"

"I don't regret it." Xiao Zimo said firmly.

"Well, since you don't regret it, we can't control you now, so let's do as you please." Father Xiao said helplessly.

Mother Xiao was in a hurry: "Master——"

Father Xiao comforted him: "Zimo is not a child, he knows how to make choices, not to mention that Wu Bai still doesn't know what's on his mind, he will have to suffer a lot, when the time comes, he will know that it is time to turn around. "

"Okay then, I will listen to the master." Mother Xiao nodded.

As soon as the few people finished their discussion, a servant called them outside the door to have dinner, and they hurriedly left the study and went to the dining hall.

Wu Bai had just arrived at Xiao's house at the moment, Xiao Zimo saw him coming, and hurriedly said to him: "Brother Bai, sit down, I went to the kitchen to order sweet and sour pork ribs for you."

"Zimo really did what he said." Wu Bai said with a smile.

"Come on, try this." Xiao Zimo put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into the bowl for Wu Bai.

Xiao's mother on the table saw Wu Bai eating the ribs without any qualms, and couldn't help looking at Xiao's father eagerly. Xiao's father pressed her hand under the table, signaling her to be calm and calm.

After dinner, Wu Bai followed Xiao Zimo to the study to discuss important matters, while Mother Xiao took Father Xiao back to her yard.

"Look at the two of them, how can Zimo be able to bear hardships and turn around?" Mother Xiao worried.

"Wu Bai just didn't know what Zimo thought about him, so he let Zimo approach him. If he knew, he should avoid suspicion." Father Xiao guessed.

"Then let's go and remind Wu Bai." Mother Xiao suggested.

"Yes." Father Xiao agreed.

The two came outside the study again. They originally planned to wait for Wu Bai to come out and remind him after sending Wu Bai out, but standing at the door now, the two of them couldn't help being curious about what Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo were talking about in the study. What, will Xiao Zimo confess everything to Wu Bai directly?

After thinking about it, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother tiptoed around to the window of the study, and looked inside through the half-open window, only to see Xiao Zimo and Wu Bai embracing each other inside.

Xiao's mother almost didn't cry out, but Xiao's father covered her mouth in time, so that Xiao Zimo and Wu Bai didn't find them.

Xiao's father took Xiao's mother back to his yard again.

Only then did Mother Xiao say: "I thought the relationship between the two of them was too close just now, but you said it was because Wu Bai didn't know Zimo's intentions, so what happened?"

"This... this... Since the two children love each other, we can't break them up, right?" Father Xiao hesitated.

"Hmph!" Mother Xiao snorted angrily.

"Madam, since the two children are already like this, what we can do for them is to teach Ziyu well." Father Xiao said helplessly.

"Hmph!" It's the most thorough you can think!

Father Xiao naturally knew Mother Xiao best. He knew that the other party was a little angry at the moment, but the anger was not aimed at the two children, so he hurriedly comforted the other party.

In the study on the other side, Wu Bai came out of Xiao Zimo's arms, looked towards the window, and said, "Uncle and aunt have already left."

"They didn't rush in just now, so they must be able to accept the two of us." Xiao Zimo said seriously.

"That's fine, it's okay to hide it from them all the time." Wu Bai nodded.

"By the way, you just said that you will enter the palace today? What's the situation?" Xiao Zimo asked.

"In the past few years in Dingyang Mansion, I have found evidence that the Secretary of the Household Department and the prefect of Dingyang Mansion colluded with each other and embezzled disaster relief funds. Today I entered the palace to present these things." Wu Bai explained.

Floods often occur in Dingyang Prefecture, and the imperial court distributes disaster relief silver taels every year. These disaster relief silver taels are not only used for the common people, but more are used to strengthen the dam construction, so that the people can avoid disasters. However, the magistrate of Dingyang Prefecture is a student of the Minister of the Household Department , and the disaster relief funds were allocated by the household department, the two of them colluded, which led to the situation in Dingyang Mansion not only not improving, but getting worse, which led to a huge flood in Dingyang Mansion in the original life. Many people died.

"Brother Bai, you've worked hard." Although Xiao Zimo didn't see how Wu Bai lived in Dingyang Mansion with his own eyes, he could feel the hardships and heavy responsibilities of Wu Bai's trip.

Wu Bai shook his head and said, "All this is for the common people, I don't think it's hard work."

The next day, Wu Bai was planning to go to the Ministry of Officials to hand in his work report, when he heard the common people talking about it.

"Have you heard? The House of the Minister of the Household Department has been ransacked."

"Why didn't I hear that it was copied last night."

"What crime did this Minister of the Household Department commit? His house was ransacked?"

"Who knows, I'll know when I go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to hear the trial and watch the excitement."

Hearing these comments, Wu Bai was a little surprised. He thought the emperor would not move so fast, at most he would put Xu Shangshu in prison for interrogation, and then ransacked his house. He didn't expect that the other party would do something to Xu's mansion last night.

However, it is obvious that the emperor's attitude this time is very firm. Before noon, the result of Xu Shangshu's disposition had come out. He was sentenced to death after Qiuhou, his family was exiled, his family property was confiscated, and his slaves were sold again.

At the same time, many officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs were involved in Xu Shangshu's case, and they were all dealt with according to Daliang's laws. The Ministry of Punishment also sent additional personnel to Dingyang Mansion to arrest all those involved in the case and bring them to Beijing.

After the dust of this case was settled, Wu Bai's report papers were also issued, and he was retained as an official in the capital, just as the household officials were vacant. Coupled with the contributions he made in Dingyang Mansion, he became a regular fourth-rank household. Department doctor, responsible for the management of Duzhi.

Coincidentally, Yun Zhijing, the son-in-law of Xu Shangshu, escaped from this case, and the criminal department did not find any evidence to prove that Yun Zhijing participated in Xu Shangshu's corruption case.

Xiao Zimo sighed, "I didn't expect that Yun Zhijing could get out of the quagmire."

"He is young after all, maybe Xu Shangshu doesn't trust his ability, so he didn't let him participate in those things." Wu Bai guessed.

"Maybe." Xiao Zimo sighed.

Yunfu

Yun Zhijing drank tea comfortably, looking very leisurely.

Xu Jiayue, who had been working outside for her parents all day, returned to the mansion, saw him like this, and was immediately enraged.

"Yun Zhijing, do you still have a conscience, your father is still in prison, and your mother will be exiled to the border soon, yet you still have the leisure to drink tea?" Xu Jiayue stepped forward and knocked the teacup in Yun Zhijing's hand on the ground. land.

Yun Zhijing straightened up slowly, and slapped Xu Jiayue hard.

Xu Jiayue covered her face and looked at Yun Zhijing in disbelief.

"That's your father and mother, not mine." Yun Zhijing said lightly.

"Yun Zhijing! Didn't you beg my father like that when you were in prison? You asked him to keep you, and you said you would treat me well for the rest of your life!" Xu Jiayue retorted.

"That was back then. Now that your father has become a prisoner, no one can save him. I advise you not to waste your efforts, and don't forget that the only person you can rely on now is me. Otherwise, don't blame me for disregarding the relationship between husband and wife!" Yun Zhijing said coldly.

"Husband and wife love! Haha, this is simply the funniest joke I've ever heard! Yun Zhijing, you are not human!" Xu Jiayue sneered.

After saying this, she turned to leave.

Yun Zhijing hurriedly ordered to the left and right: "Madam is ill, why don't you hurry up and help her down to rest."

"Yes."

"Let go of me! Yun Zhijing, quickly let them let me go! I curse you to die!" Xu Jiayue struggled.

"What bad luck!" Yun Zhijing flicked his sleeves and left the hall.

Wu Bai and the others naturally don't know what happened in Yunfu.

A few years later, the emperor's health declined. Seeing that the crown prince was able to rise to the throne, the third prince finally couldn't bear it anymore and initiated a forced palace. Fortunately, Wu Bai and the others reminded the crown prince in time, which saved a bloodbath.

The third prince had just initiated the coercion of the palace, but he was taken down. All his subordinates were captured. The general situation was over, but the emperor was so angry with his behavior that he didn't come forward and died directly.

The crown prince successfully ascended the throne, but he still thought of his brotherhood, and instead of killing the third prince, he sent him to the imperial mausoleum to guard the mausoleum of the late emperor.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and the power of the court was reshuffled. Since Wu Bai and the others firmly stood on the prince's side, they were naturally promoted. Later, the two were promoted step by step. Fortunately, neither of them was married, which also made the emperor feel more at ease. reuse them.

As for the marriage of the two, the emperor had inquired, and both of them said that their careers were the most important thing, and they didn't care about the personal affairs of their children.

In addition, when someone approached Wu Bai as a matchmaker, Wu Bai pretended not to have the life of his parents and dared not get married. Someone asked Wu Chengzhou about Wu Bai's marriage. Bai is married, he would never say that himself, because Wu Bai's marriage was delayed like this, and after Wu Bai became an extremely powerful minister, no one would dare to think of him again.

As for Xiao Zimo's side, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother knew about Xiao Zimo and Wu Bai's affairs, so when others inquired about Xiao Zimo's marriage, they had no choice but to sneak Xiao Ziyu out as a shield, but even so, those people Seeing that Xiao Zimo's future is immeasurable, he is still willing to marry in as his successor.

In the end, Father Xiao and Mother Xiao had no choice but to let Xiao Zimo solve the matter by himself.

Therefore, anyone who wants to get married with the Xiao family, Xiao Zimo finds their mistakes in the court, and will refer to them. After a long time, everyone will not dare to marry the evil star Xiao Zimo again. This is simply a feud .

In later generations, when people talked about Wu Xiao and the two emperor teachers, they gradually realized why the two emperor teachers never married.
