In the blink of an eye, the August of the fifth year of Jiajing was sent away, and September of the fifth year of Jiajing followed, although Li Dayi and Tao Zhongwen were killed on the spot, but the aftermath of the "horse incident" continued, and after several days of trial, all the captured members of the Maitreya sect were sentenced to death, and some of the officials involved were demoted or exiled.

Among them, the heaviest sentence is Yan Song's father and son, Yan Song is not only involved in the Li Dayi case, but also involved in the rebellion of Wang Zhi's father and son, and there are many corruption and illegal things.

Yan Song's son Yan Shifan was exiled for 3,000 miles, confiscated all family property, Yan Song's wife Ouyang was exempted from punishment, but this woman was a martyr, on the day Yan Song was executed, she hanged herself, and left earlier than Yan Song.

However, the disturbances in the court are none of Xu Jin's business, since the court meeting on August 27, he has begun to take vacation, and the military power of the Shenji Battalion has also been handed over, sleeping until he wakes up naturally every day, and living a leisurely life with his wife and children on the hot kang, but he is also at ease.

The lord does not need to go to the court, he is idle at home all day, and the happiest is naturally the little cabbage pair of Yue'er and early spring and early summer, fortunately, our Yasukuni grandfather is young and strong, and the three wives are wet with rain and dew at the same time, there is still room for reclamation of non-responsible fields, and several little hooves are moistened to be delicate.

During the Double Ninth Festival in early September, the afternoon sun fell on the front yard of Xufu, and under a few fragrant osmanthus trees, two boys of four or five years old were playing.

The slightly taller boy has fair skin, a pair of big black grape-like eyes full of cleverness, as long as he smiles, his eyes are like two crescent moons, and Xie Xiaowan is like a ten. The shorter boy has slightly dark skin, but he is as strong as a calf, and he has a Chinese mouth, looking at the lip line that this little guy purses, he must be a stubborn master who refuses to admit defeat.

At this time, the two boys each rode bamboo horses, held the reins in their left hands, and held a small stick in their right hands to confront each other, apparently playing a game of killing the enemy, their eyes widened, and they tried their best to make a ferocious appearance, which made people laugh.

I only heard the slightly taller boy shouting: "Whoever comes, report the name, this will not kill the nameless ghost under the knife!" ”

"That kid heard it, he didn't change his name, he didn't change his surname, he didn't change his surname, Changshan Zhao Zilong is also!" Not to be outdone, the boy is a little shorter.

"Ahh The taller boy rushed over with a loud shout.

The two little children got together and started a ping-pong fight, everyone came and went, and they actually played well, and several Xu Mansion family members stood outside the arena and watched with a smile.

After a while, the two little ones each received a few sticks from each other, but fortunately they were holding hemp rods in their hands, but they were not afraid of injuring each other.

The children naturally refused to admit defeat, and they were beaten back, so they were a little anxious to fight, and there were contacts just now, and they didn't talk about any rules at this time.

Seeing this, the family members hurriedly stepped forward to separate the two, and the slightly taller boy had a red mark on his face, and the slightly shorter one was hit in the lower abdomen, and his little face was a little pale with pain, but he held his chest and pretended to be fine.

The slightly taller boy touched his hot little face, and said angrily: "Okay, you Changshan Zhao Zilong, you really live up to your reputation, you have two brushes, but now it's getting late, and the general will collect his troops and return to the camp, let's fight three hundred rounds tomorrow!" ”

The shorter boy said proudly: "If you want to fight, you will fight, I am afraid that you will not succeed, and I will accompany you to the end!" ”

"Poof, oops, it's amazing, these two little thorns have grown up, the tiger father has no dogs, the ancients don't deceive me, but why did Guan Yu fight with Zhao Yun, aren't they in a gang?" Huang Jin, the imperial eunuch, walked into the courtyard with a grin.

"Hey, Gonggong Huang is here, is it the emperor's will?" The slightly taller boy immediately ran over, and he didn't have any relationship with Huang Jin.

Huang Jin smiled and said, "Hey, how did Xiao Guogong know? ”

The little boy who is a little taller is Xu Kang, the eldest young master of the Xu Mansion, who is more than five years old this year, and the little adult generally puffs up his chest and says: "If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, and there is a chance that Gonggong Huang will come to pass the decree." ”

Huang Jin laughed, touched Xu Kang's little brain and said, "What a little clever ghost, Grandpa Yasukuni can be in the house." ”

"Daddy is taking a nap at Erniang (Fei Ruyi)." Xu Kang replied honestly.

Huang Jin smiled knowingly, patted the shoulder of the boy who was a little shorter, and asked with a smile, "What's the name of the little guy?" ”

The boy puffed up his small chest and said loudly: "My name is Qi Jiguang, the successor of inheritance, the light of the glory of the ancestors." ”

Huang Jin suddenly realized: "Ouch, it turned out to be the son of General Yongyi Boqi, no wonder it looks familiar, amazing, amazing!" ”

Qi Jiguang tilted his chin proudly, and Xu Kang pouted: "What's the spirit, no matter how powerful your father is, he doesn't serve under my father Jin." ”

Qi Jiguang said angrily: "Xu Kang, Grandpa Yasukuni has great ability, it doesn't mean that you have great ability, let's see, I, Qi Jiguang, will definitely become the first general of the Ming Dynasty when I grow up." ”

Xu Kang said triumphantly: "If you are the first general, then I will be the first commander, and you, the first general, must also listen to the command of the commander, so that you can go east to the east and west to the west." ”

"Fart!" Xiao Qi Jiguang's face was flushed, but he was clumsy in words, and he couldn't fight the articulate Xu Kang.

Huang Jin said with a smile: "Don't make any noise, just talk about not practicing fake tricks, which of you is great, don't say it now, let's practice your skills first, who is more powerful in the end, and you will know with your real skills in the future." ”

As Huang Jinzheng spoke, he saw Xu Jin, who was wearing a regular home clothes, come out of the house, and stepped forward to salute him: "I've seen Grandpa Yasukuni." ”

Xu Jin was originally resting at noon in Fei Ruyi's room, but when he heard that Huang Jin was coming, he greeted him.

"Father-in-law Huang doesn't need to be polite, but the emperor has a will?" Xu Jin asked with a smile.

Huang Jin coughed lightly and said, "The emperor has spoken, and the Duke of Yasukuni can just stand and listen." I have been busy with government affairs recently, and when I am busy for a while, I will go to the house to talk to Xu Qing, today is the Double Ninth Festival, I asked Huang Jin to send a jar of realgar wine made in the palace and all kinds of lambs to Xu Qing and Sister Xiaowan to taste. ”

"Thank you for the reward." Xu Jindao.

Huang Jin waved his hand, and several little eunuchs behind him picked up the realgar wine and all kinds of lambs given by the emperor and handed them to the family members of the Xu Mansion. The housekeeper Dabao was very good, and he didn't need Xu Jin's orders, he stuffed five taels of silver into each of the little eunuchs who accompanied him, and everyone was happy for a while.

Xu Jin invited Huang Jin to sit in the living room, ordered someone to serve fragrant tea, and then chatted with each other.

"Gonggong Huang, is the emperor okay recently?" Xu Jin asked casually.

Huang Jin and Xu Jin can be said to be friends at the end of the year, they went to Shandong together for disaster relief, and later joined forces to deal with Lu Bing, so the relationship between the two is very iron, and everyone chats more casually.

"Rest assured, the emperor is good, but the government affairs are busy, Father-in-law Bi has retired, the position of the eunuch is vacant, and the emperor does everything himself, and he reads the recital until late at night every day." Huang Jin replied.

"It is reported that the emperor demoted the eunuch Bi Chun to the Bell and Drum Division, why is this?"

A hint of schadenfreude flashed in Huang Jin's eyes and said: "What the specific reason is, our family doesn't know, but some time ago, the emperor sent guards to Yanqi Palace to arrest a few little eunuchs who served Chu Cairen, but these little eunuchs all committed suicide, and it is estimated that Bi Chun's demotion is related to this matter." ”

Xu Jin's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "What did these little eunuchs do?" The emperor actually sent guards to arrest people? ”

"It seems that he said something in private that shouldn't be said, but the emperor heard it again, so he committed suicide in fear of sin." Huang Jin said disapprerovingly.

Xu Jin couldn't help but shake his head secretly, Huang Jin is just a middle-aged person, if he changes his cleverness, he will definitely find that this matter is unusual, at least spend some effort to seek the position of the boss of the celebrant and supervisor, but this person has no such consciousness at all.

Xu Jin took a sip of the teacup, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he felt that Jiajing was a little abnormal at the court meeting that day, could it have anything to do with it?

Huang Jin also took a sip of the teacup, and changed the topic: "The Queen Mother has not been very good recently, it is said that the old problem of insomnia has been committed again, and the imperial doctor is helpless. ”

Xu Jin sighed secretly, it was not easy for Empress Dowager Jiang to suffer repeated blows.

"What about the Yongfu Princess Palace?" Xu Jin asked subconsciously.

Huang Jin shook his head and sighed!

Xu Jin frowned lightly and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Huang Jin lowered his voice and said: "It is said that on the day the wedding was canceled, Her Royal Highness Princess Yongfu committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake!" ”

Xu Jin's face changed greatly, and he blurted out: "Really? ”

“…… Fortunately, he was rescued in time! Huang Jin continued.

Xu Jin couldn't help but let out a long sigh, glared at Huang Gonggong in annoyance, and really wanted to kick this thing under the crotch, so that he couldn't even be a father-in-law.

Huang Jin coughed embarrassedly and said: "Although Her Royal Highness the princess was rescued, she was determined to become a monk, saying that her life was too hard, she was already widowed, and she didn't want to hurt anyone anymore, and the queen mother and the emperor didn't listen to any persuasion." ”

Xu Jin couldn't help frowning deeply, Princess Yongfu can be said to be half of her own student, she shouldn't have such superstitious and pedantic ideas!

"Then the emperor promised her?" Xu Jin asked in a deep voice.

Huang Jin spread his hands and said: "Although Princess Yongfu has a soft temperament, she can't pull back ten cows after what she has identified, and the emperor will seek death if she doesn't agree, what else can I do?" I heard that Her Royal Highness Princess Yongfu is now practicing in the palace with her hair tied up, meditating, eating, fasting and chanting sutras every day. However, this matter involves the royal face, and the grandfather of the country must not spread the word! ”

Xu Jin's mood was inexplicably heavy when he heard this.
