Reincarnation of the powerful minister

It was night, in order to move Concubine Wei, who was not suitable for moving, Emperor Jinglong stayed in the Longde Palace in the west of Dongyuan, and the prince lived in West Road Ningfu Palace.

The Zhonghua Hall in the middle road is the temporary residence of the prince, and the guards are also extremely strict.

The Hongqing Hall on the East Road and the Chongzhi Hall on the South Road couldn't have so many guards, and they were only similar to ordinary official residences.

Chongzhi Hall, also known as Xiaonanyuan, once housed an unlucky emperor of the previous generation.How unlucky is this emperor? He was captured by the Tatars when he was hunting in the north, and he was severely trampled for a year. He wanted to exchange him for a lot of money and territory.As a result, the courtiers thought it was not worthwhile. They might as well establish a new king and put his younger brother on the throne.Tatar saw that the hostage was useless, so he thought of another trick, letting him back as a shit-stirring stick.The new king was unable to get off the tiger, so he had no choice but to respect his elder brother as the Supreme Emperor and put him under house arrest in this cold palace-like small South Courtyard.

The courtyard is deep and the walls are high, and there are many cold locks.Originally, the outdated emperor planned to spend the rest of his life in the bitter wind and rain, but in the end, the situation turned around. Eight years later, the new emperor became seriously ill. The old officials who supported him climbed over the wall and ordered the soldiers to carry giant logs to smash the door, and robbed him from the small south courtyard. , Restoration enthroned.

The emperor with a dead tree in spring sighed that it was God's will to be able to come out. He tore down a section of the wall of the Xiaonan courtyard and ordered that it should not be repaired from then on.So this gap connected to the south wall of the imperial city has been left until today.

Marquis Feng An said that he would not dare to live in the former residence of the emperor, but in fact he thought it was bad luck, so he occupied the Hongqing Palace alone, and drove the rest of the people to the Xiaonan courtyard.

In this way, the six prominent officials, plus the servant, and Su Yan, who was ordered to join in the fun, inevitably lived in a cramped place in the Chongzhi Palace.

Don't say that there is no guarantee of a separate stove, dinner must be eaten together in the cafeteria, and even the hot water for bathing has to be lined up and washed one by one.

During dinner, Cui Jinping, the number one scholar in the current department, sat down beside Su Yan with his job bowl in his hand, and said with emotion: "I thought that if I was named on the gold list, I would be able to rise to the top, but I didn't expect to spend all day without writing, and now I have to suffer such an innocent disaster." .”

Su Yan swallowed the meat in his mouth, disapprovingly: "What kind of disaster is this? You see, there are meat, vegetables, and soup, and there is a big bed room with hot water. The only thing missing is a mobile phone and WIFI. My little brother is already very content."

Cui Jinping didn't understand what a hand chicken is, and what kind of crooked method is. He guessed that it was a dialect in central Fujian, just like the "hungry" Mr. Lianzhou, so he didn't bother with it, and continued: "Brother Qinghe Rili Having suffered a great injustice, now you can still be so calm and composed, not to be surprised by favor or humiliation, I really admire Brother Yu. I just don’t know why His Majesty ordered you to stay? Could it be that you still have doubts about your innocence?”

Su Yan glanced at him, then quickly scanned the lobby, and saw two familiar faces—Tan Hua Yunxi from the same department, and Liu Weiyi, the director of Zhan Shifu.

There is also Jia Gongji, the right censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate who only hears his name but does not see him.When Su Yan was serving in the imperial study, he had seen this Jia Yushi's power of cursing people. He could kill people even with a sharp tongue.

The other two strangers didn't wear official uniforms, and Su Yan couldn't name them, but seeing that they were familiar with each other, they got together to talk and whine.

Liu Weiyi and Jia Gongji should have an old rift, and their ranks are similar, they are evenly matched four ranks, so they don't give each other a chance, and they fight with each other every word.

Only Yun Xi was alone, sitting alone in a corner, with a tall and straight figure, like a white plum blossom that Ling Han bloomed alone.Su Yan smiled at him, but he just nodded slightly, his face was as cold as a snow-covered lake.

Seeing this, Cui Jinping whispered to Su Yan: "Tanhualang is so noble that no one would look down on him. Now I'm willing to nod my head, which is considered a way of giving you face. I've had a bad nose, and I don't want to talk to him again." .”

Su Yan said: "Natures are different, people with a cold face may not be unkind, Brother Ping Shan, just take it easy."

Cui Jinping was a little unhappy: "What kind of friendship do we have? You haven't said a word to him, and you actually favor him."

Su Yan comforted him with a smile: "I was wrong, I should have favored you, saying that he is a big ice cube with no human feelings."

Only then did Cui Jinping turn his anger into joy.

In the next room, Jia Yushi cursed and cursed, and gradually turned his finger on the prince, saying that the Zhan Shifu was dedicated to instructing the prince, but it was useless, and you, Liu Weiyi, as a bachelor's attendant, assisted the prince in his studies on weekdays and did not fulfill his duties , taught the prince to become a study-weary urchin, lacking the virtues that a prince should have.

Su Yan put down the bowls and chopsticks, walked in front of Jia Gongji, and said with a smile: "You two lords put out the fire. There are guards in royal clothes outside, and if people hear you talk about the crown prince and hand over the secret report to His Majesty's desk, no one can please anyone. "

Liu Weiyi was a little apprehensive looking at Su Yan now.

It was all because on the day of the tribute examination, he followed the suggestion of Eunuch Cheng Sheng, thinking that the crown prince hated Su Yan, so he bent the law for personal gain and wanted to cross Su Yan's name off the admission list. It's done.

Unexpectedly, the prince's mind is like a baby face in June, and he will change as soon as he says, and now he sees Su Yan like an eyeball.Liu Weiyi was at a loss, and could only lament the unpredictable power of the sky, hoping that this matter would not be shaken out, otherwise Su Yan would use the prince's hand to punish him, and Cheng Sheng would bite him back.

He was guilty and anxious, and when Su Yan said this, he immediately flattered him and said, "It's Su Shi who is far-sighted, thank you for the reminder."

As a speech officer, Jia Yushi was a talking fighter. He looked down on his cowardly behavior very much, and taunted him: "One fox pretends to be a tiger, and the other is hard-headed and soft-hearted. It is very right to take the stage and sing the new "Killing Dogs" "It's gone."

Liu Weiyi knew that he could not scold him, so she had a flash of inspiration, and found another way: "Stop being so talkative! I think you are harboring resentment towards Su Shidu. The fifty court sticks he received back then were all thanks to you. Could it be that the man upstairs in Fufu You also did the case, so that you can use it to blame him?"

Jia Gongji said angrily: "You actually framed me with a murder case? I thought you did it! Ye Donglou filled the vacancy of the household doctor and squeezed out your own son. Could it be that you are resentful? Putting a poisonous hand on someone else?"

The two accused each other of being the murderer, and they were so angry that they rolled up their sleeves and moved their hands.Liu Weiyi couldn't beat her, and Jia Gongji pinned her down on the ground and rubbed against her.

Several guards in Jinyi heard the sound and rushed forward to separate the two, trying to persuade each of them to go back to their room.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the two officials Su Yan didn't know also took them away.

Cui Jinping shook his head: "Don't mess with Yu Shi, don't mess with anyone. Don't you know that the late emperor had a golden saying?"

"What is it?" Su Yan asked curiously.

"The late emperor occasionally sang opera in the palace, and suddenly heard the yelling of the censor patrolling the city. He asked who made the noise here? The late emperor stopped quickly and said, 'I am afraid of the censor'!"

Su Yan wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. He couldn't bear it, he waved his hands indiscriminately and said, "Little brother, take a step first, and leave."

"Wait a minute, brother Yu found a pot of wine in the back kitchen, and wants to drink with you again, I'll rest when I'm drunk." Seeing him walking in a hurry, Cui Jinping stretched out his hand to hold him back, but unexpectedly he only grabbed his sleeve and pulled Su Yan staggered and almost fell on Yun Xi who was passing by.

Su Yan let out an "ah", only to feel that his waist was supported by a palm, and he just stood still.

The hand was withdrawn quickly, as if stung by a bee.

It was Yun Xi with a face of ice and snow.

"I'm sorry, sorry, I was too reckless." Cui Jinping quickly apologized.

"It's okay."

Su Yan cupped his hands towards Yunxi: "Thank you, Master Yun, for your help."

Yun Xi nodded slightly again, said "be careful" in a clear voice, and left.

Cui Jinping was surprised and said: "He can talk to strangers! Brother Qinghe, you really see everything."

Su Yan laughed: "Where is it, I didn't expect it. I'll drink the wine another day, and go back to the room to take a bath first. Today's life is really ups and downs, and I'm sweating from exhaustion."

Wu Ming lay in ambush for a whole day on the only way for Marquis Wei Jun of Feng'an to return to his mansion.

During the period, no matter whether it was exposed to the scorching sun or bitten by mosquitoes, it didn't move too much. Even though the servants of the Hou's family walked back and forth on the road several times, they never found that there was an assassin waiting to go out just a few feet away.

When preparing to kill, he is more tenacious and patient than a camel in the desert, and more cunning and cautious than a hunting jackal. Like a scorpion's hook and snake's teeth, he is full of hatred and poison, waiting for a fatal blow.

However, the target never appeared.

Wei Jun was grounded for two months, fearing that he would be assassinated again, so he just failed to build his mansion into a barracks, so he couldn't get close easily.Ever since Wu Ming left Su Yan's house, he began to look for opportunities to strike. It was not until today's Dragon Boat Festival that he waited for him to leave the house for Dongyuan.

Wu Ming had inquired that shooting willows in Dongyuan was a practice every year. The officials who accompanied the officials set off at Maoshi and returned around Shenshi.

He sneaked into the Wei Mansion and heard his followers report to the steward: "Your Majesty has been staying in Dongyuan by the Holy Majesty, and the younger one will come back to report his safety."

After following him to a remote corner, Wu Ming pinched the attendant and forced him to find out that Wei Jun lived in Hongqing Palace, so he planned to sneak into Dongyuan at night to revenge him with blood.

The high walls of the imperial city couldn't stop his flying claws, let alone the south wall of Dongyuan had a gap.

At Haishi, Wu Ming was dressed in night clothes and covered his face with a black scarf, and quietly sneaked into Dongyuan without disturbing a single guard.

He searched all over the Hongqing Palace, looking for Wei Jun's bedroom, and outside a window lit by a candle, he heard a familiar voice inside the room.

It's the old thief Wei Jun!Wu Ming carefully poked through the window paper and peeked inside.

I saw that Wei Jun was having a secret conversation with a middle-aged man with dark complexion and gloomy face at the table.

That man was wearing a flying fish suit with an embroidered spring knife on his waist, he should be the leader of Jinyiwei.

I don't know what conspiracy and tricks the dog thief is planning with the court's eagle claws, Wu Ming listens attentively.

Wei Jun frowned and blamed: "Master Feng's actions are too hasty. Killing people and setting the blame is a wonderful move, but why did you implicate the empress, and almost killed the dragon fetus! Fortunately, the ancestors of the Wei family blessed it, and it went smoothly. Give birth to a prince, otherwise, Mr. Feng, you will die forever!"

Feng Qu'e sneered: "This is really a coincidence. The official just wanted to say 'admiration' to Lord Hou. The so-called extraordinary people do extraordinary things. In order to kill a mere crown prince to serve him, even the safety of the noble concubine Wei and the dragon's heir can be ignored .”

"What did you say?! You didn't do this?"

"From this point of view, it's not the work of Lord Hou. That's really strange."

Wei Jun said anxiously: "Of course it's not the Marquis! A woman's childbirth is like stepping into the gate of hell. If it is premature and dystocia, the danger is even greater. The family members in the mansion burn incense and worship Buddha all day long, and only hope that my niece can give birth smoothly. Corpse to frighten her!"

Feng Qu'e said unhurriedly: "The imperial concubine and empress are kind to me, and naturally the lower officials would not do such things."

"Who would it be? What is the purpose?"

"Since the noble concubine has given birth safely, no matter who the murderer behind this case is or what his purpose is, it will be beneficial to us. We can even take advantage of him."

"You mean..."

Feng Qu'e smiled coldly, "I think that the murderer will attack again at night and assassinate the prince's attendant Su Yan and Su Qinghe in the dormitory. What does the Marquis think?"

Wei Jun was overjoyed: "Yes! Yes! Let's see who dares to humiliate this Marquis in the future! I heard that the Eastern Palace favors him. I didn't believe it at first. Today, seeing the appearance of the crown prince wishing to replace him, tsk tsk, if he dies unexpectedly, I don't know. How the prince will be heartbroken! Hahahaha..."

Feng Que said: "Over the Xiaonan courtyard, the lower officials have already made arrangements."

Wu Ming was shocked when he heard that.

These two people want to kill Su Yan, I'm afraid that young official is in danger!

He originally wanted to wait until the leader of Jinyiwei left, and then rush in to assassinate Wei Jun, and he would be sure.

But in this way, there is no time to save Mr. Su.

On the one hand, there is the revenge that success is in sight, on the other hand, the urgent revenge, which one to choose?

Wu Ming hesitated for a moment, then made a decision to save Su Yan first.

After all, people cannot be resurrected after death, and there is still a chance for revenge, just wait a little longer and spend more effort.

He immediately got up and retreated, and under the cover of the night, he flew across the roofs, like a dexterous bat, and flew into the towering wall of the small south courtyard.
