On this day, Emperor Huan was worrying with Li Huang's notebook, which stated that he wanted to punish a corrupt official named Yang Yuanqun.It is said that the matter is quite simple, what should be done, but this matter involves a little face of Emperor Huan.But it is said that Yang Yuanqun, surnamed Wanling, was dismissed from Beihai and returned home (Wanling is located in the east of Henan Yin's jurisdiction, and Luoyang is in the northwest of Henan Yin's jurisdiction). .But if it's just a simple corruption, this Yang Yuanqun heard that the sage was good, so he specially collected some rare and wonderful things, bribed the servant Hou Yu, and wanted to present them to ask for some favor, but he didn't want to. and was confiscated.Because these strange things have aroused the interest of the people, and they are often used as talking points and jokes, and they also involve the servants in the palace, and even reflect on the current emperor.

It happened that Hou Yu was called to Emperor Huan because of this incident. Emperor Huan threw the booklet in front of Hou Yu and said angrily, "Look at what you have done! Now you have made me a laughing stock of others!" Hou Yu always thought about it. Looking at the opportunity to punish that Li Huang, now he just got such an opportunity, how could he let it go, his eyes turned, Hou Yu crawled to Emperor Huan, and argued, "Your Majesty, it is that Li Huang who is so ignorant!"

Emperor Huan's anger didn't subside when he heard this, but he was curious, "What do you say?"

Hou Yu replied obsequiously, "It would be nothing more than an ordinary punishment for corruption, but now that Yang Yuanqun's thoughts have been shaken out by that Li Wei, and he deliberately played it to the Holy One, isn't it just to let everyone in the world know, Don’t you know! This is to make the world’s eyes on the Holy One, and let everyone see the joke of the Holy One! If the Holy One punishes him, he will slap himself in the face. This Li Wei obviously doesn't pay attention to you!"

Emperor Huan heard this, and asked with a smile, "Then what do you think should be done?"

Hou Yu suddenly felt a little complacent, "According to the slaves, we should punish Li Wei for his vigor and let him do hard labor! Let him know that the Holy One is the greatest, and he can't just do whatever he wants!"

"If you reprimand capable ministers just because of this, the world will blame me even more?!"

When Hou Yu heard this, he was a little terrified, and immediately prostrated himself in the tunnel, "I am terrified. I just think that since my servant has offended the majesty's dragon face, it is understandable for the majesty to show me some color; and the majesty is only punishing me." Hard labor is only a small punishment, and he will be reinstated in no time. How can the world accuse the Holy One of not being holy enough? On the contrary, it will make the world understand that the power of God cannot be desecrated. If there are similar things in the future, no one will dare to act rashly self-criticism."

Emperor Huan found that Hou Yu's words were quite seductive, so he couldn't help but look at him, but Hou Yu was staring at him, and couldn't help being frightened for a moment, sweating coldly, and immediately knelt down on the ground not daring to peek. "Go down, I know." Hou Yu had no choice but to retreat anxiously, but he didn't know what Emperor Huan would plan.

After Zhang Rang left the palace, Empress Deng did not live as comfortably as she imagined, because Emperor Huan favored the noble Guo in the palace again.Although Guo Guiren is not as noble as Deng Guiren, she is also the daughter of the Guo family in Yingchuan, but she is not a daughter of a concubine, but a daughter of a concubine.That nobleman Guo is not as arrogant and arrogant as a daughter of a famous family, but is very Xiaojiabiyu and considerate, but what upsets Empress Deng the most is that nobleman Guo is somewhat similar to that Zhang Rang.Maybe Guo Guiren's mother and Zhang Rang are related by blood, maybe it's just because of the same place, water and soil or some other reason, the outlines are somewhat similar.

But no matter what, as soon as Empress Deng saw that nobleman Guo was being favored, she felt like a pimple in her throat, as if her efforts were in vain, and as if she was just jealous.If it is said that Empress Deng still thinks about Emperor Huan in her heart, maybe it is in fact, but Empress Deng will not admit it in her heart.Tossing to such an extent, Emperor Huan's ruthless behavior of throwing away once used, and swords drawn against each other, even the past hypocrisy and obedience were not bothered to waste that energy.

But at the beginning, when Empress Liang was in her position, Empress Deng was still willing to believe that Emperor Huan had at least some affection for her. Although she occasionally realized something unusual, Empress Deng was unwilling to choose to believe it.Maybe it's helplessness, or naivety, women will always believe that others regard themselves as the apple of the eye, and don't want to believe that they are just weeds on the roadside to others.How can a person become someone else's little sun for no reason, but Empress Deng is too self-righteous. She is beautiful, noble, and talented enough. Emperor Huan's little sun.Maybe Empress Deng's self-righteousness is not ridiculous enough. After all, even Empress Liang, who has no other women to show off except her family background, is even older than Emperor Huan. She once thought she was Emperor Huan's little sun.

Is it the woman who deceived herself, or the man who catered to the woman's psychology and deceived you——

Soon, Li Wei was sent to be the left school by Emperor Huan, that is to say, he was punished with hard labor. However, Li Wei was not the only one who was punished, but also Ting Wei Feng Yu and Da Sinonong Liu You were brothers and sisters-but these three people They all have one thing in common, they offended the eunuch.Liu You confiscated an eunuch's property, and Feng Ling killed an eunuch's son, but compared with them, Li Wei's crimes were not very serious.

Today, Lin Xiu only heard the news at school, and he was very anxious. Jia Biao and the scholars who were familiar with him knew that Lin Xiu and Li Wei had a good relationship, so they came to inquire one after another, but most of them just vented their anger and did not Nothing good to suggest.Xun Shuang was also very worried about Li Wei. Seeing Lin Xiu mixed with those ordinary students, he couldn't figure it out.

Xun Shuang pulled La Linxiu's sleeve with his fingers, and asked awkwardly, "Hey, have you thought of a good way?" Being able to get close to Xun Shuang was very exciting, or with some scholarly arrogance, he felt that Xun Shuang was not polite enough and looked down on them, scholars who were born in common people.

Lin Xiu didn't think of a good solution either, he raised his eyebrows and shook his head lightly.

Xun Shuang sighed, "The current plan is to visit someone who can talk to the Holy Majesty and who has a good relationship with Lord Li."

Lin Xiu thought for a while and said, "It's just hard to say, but it's good to get some pointers."

Lin Xiu and Xun Shuang acted separately, Lin Xiu went to Master Liu Shuliu, and Xun Shuang went to Master Yin Xunyin.Lin Xiu and Fu Ming hadn't arrived at Liu Shu's mansion yet, but they didn't want to meet Hou Yu, the servant on the way.At this moment, the streets were not too crowded. Lin Xiu pulled Fu Ming to avoid him, pretending that he hadn't seen it, but unexpectedly, Hou Yu walked up to Lin Xiu, with a shrill voice full of joy, " Hey, Mr. Lin, where are you going?" Lin Xiu was too lazy to go back and forth with Hou Yu, so Fu Ming could only go forward and said, "We want to visit Master Liu."

"Lord Liu! Could it be for Master Li's business?!" He stretched out his finger to hook Lin Xiu's lock of hair and played with it, "Oh, I said Mr. Lin, we are also old friends, so there is no need to go Look for Mrs. Liu who is so troublesome, why don't you just look for me—although our family is only an eunuch, we can still say a few words in front of the Holy Majesty."

Lin Xiu waved Hou Yu's hand away impatiently, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Really?! I'm afraid that Mingxuan's relegation this time is also out of his kindness! Thank you so much for Master Hou's care—" After speaking, he immediately Leaving with Fu Ming, regardless of Hou Yu's fierce and greedy gaze behind his back.

When they got Liu Shu's mansion, Mrs. Liu seemed to be waiting for them specially, but there was an unexpected person, that is, the treasurer Zhang of Baishuiju, who was accompanying him.As if ignoring their curiosity, Liu Shu said directly, "Mr. Lin, I'm afraid he came here for Mr. Li's affairs? It's a pity that I can't help you, but I can give you some advice from Mr. Lin."

"Grateful even at such a late age!"

"Mr. Lin, why do you think the Holy Majesty is going to deal with Lord Li this time? Lord Li did not offend the eunuch as seriously as Lord Feng and Lord Liu."

"Isn't it just because someone instigated it? Does your lord mean it?"

"It's good if you understand in your heart that the person you should visit is not my subordinates, but the current Captain Sili, who supervises all the officials in Gyeonggi. If the whole world thinks that Mr. Li and the other three were wronged, they should also be judged." Captain Sili, this is his duty, and His Majesty will not doubt or reprimand him too much. Moreover, His Majesty does not necessarily mean to punish the three of them severely. steps."

"Is Mr. Ying willing to go out of his way?"

"Master Ying once suppressed the bandits in Wuling. At that time, Lord Feng and Lord Ying had the closest friendship, and among the three, Lord Feng did the most violent thing, but he killed the eunuch's direct son, and Mr. Ruolin begged Ying My lord, it is likely to be successful."

When Lin Xiu heard it, he thought it made sense, so he was very happy, so he said goodbye.When they were leaving, Fu Ming and Lin Xiu mentioned that many years ago, before Liu Shu was summoned to Beijing by Emperor Huan, he met shopkeeper Zhang and Liu Shu, and he respected Liu Shu very much.Lin Xiu didn't take it too seriously when he heard it, he just felt that Liu Shu was famous, and shopkeeper Zhang had a lot of acquaintances, which is understandable, but now the more important thing is to focus on saving Li Wei.

After meeting with Xun Shuang, Lin Xiu asked Xun Shuang what was the result. Xun Shuang said that Yin Xun had only mentioned someone. Surprised and delighted, he said, "It's this person. It seems that as long as you respond to your lord's performance, it will definitely have some effect." Immediately rushed to the place where it should be served.
