[No pop-ups.]

Xu Ying saw his father's sonorous voice When he saw his father's sonorous voice, he felt that he had a backbone, and he nodded excitedly and went out to give orders After half an hour, only a dozen officials came one after another It is said that usually his father summons people In less than a quarter of an hour, even those outside the city can arrive What is the matter today He was wondering in his heart After a while, there was a family report in return: Li Cifu's old mother was infected with wind and cold, and her eyes were dim He was at home and couldn't get rid of the Buddha A military report came from the south Zhang Ge Lao was busy dealing with it He only said that he would come to visit Ge Lao another day

Xu Ying was so angry that she jumped to her feet When she came back, Xu Jie also understood Yesterday, the two sons were sent back as gifts It is nothing to be a big ugly Guo Shu Ronghua's longevity post vaguely implied that he would not make much waves when he received the mountain The worst thing is that the third son took out this character and showed it off in front of people Even if only one or two of the hundred officials can understand it One pass ten, ten pass a hundred This small hint has become a piece of paper It will inevitably cause a strong shock in people's hearts Originally, everyone felt that they were dying old This time they didn't see the mystery on the spot Letting his son play a live treasure in front of everyone Isn't it clear that he is showing that he is already stupid and incompetent

He squinted his old eyes and leaned towards the several officials present, and when he saw that they looked stunned, he looked left and right, and he didn't ask, and he knew that they were just here to see the situation, and at this time, everyone was actually waiting to see how he, the head of the court, would fight back

He slowly closed his eyelids and tried to relax his face to keep his expression calm and natural He knew in his heart that the enemy had already made a move If the first counterattack he took over was weak, then the confidence of the hundred officials in himself would also collapse When the time comes, he may rush up and attack himself like he attacked Yan Song and Gao Gong Officialdom is ruthless No one can really be relied on Especially some of the usual cronies In order to save themselves and draw a clear line, they will turn around like a mad dog and launch a more fierce offensive than the enemy, and the wall will fall down and everyone will push In such a torrent-like state There is nothing anyone can do

In silence, the second housekeeper walked in again with a scroll in his hand, "Tella, Tella" Xu Ying said angrily: "What's the matter?" the second housekeeper said: "Someone sent this thing, saying that it was given to the elder by Mr. Tian Shuiyue Then he turned around and left."

"What" Xu Ying was startled when she heard Tian Shuiyue's name, took two steps back, stared at the scroll in his hand with wide eyes, and trembled her fingers: "Hurry up and throw it out."

Xu Jie frowned and said, "What are you panicking about?"

Xu Ying said in a trembling voice: "Xu Wei, this guy knows that you are sick, and he must have bad intentions, maybe he has smeared poisonous powder, explosives or ......something in it, and he was so frightened that his soul flew out of the sky when he heard it, his hand shook, and he dropped the scroll on the ground, and everyone flashed back one after another, only to see that after this scroll landed, the bones stretched out, and it was spread straight towards Xu Sangongzi like a roll of red felt

What are you afraid of Xu Ying wanted to escape in her heart, but she was so frightened that her legs were already weak Where can I avoid it Hurriedly protected her face with her hands Her body twisted back with all her might, and she tripped herself on the ground with her eyelids blinking tightly into a vortex As if she had two navels on her face

But after a while, and there was no smell of poisonous smoke, and there was no explosion, he carefully twisted back and looked out through his fingers, and saw that the scroll was in full swing, and the landscape and green onion cage on it turned out to be a painting

Everyone gathered around to take a closer look, only to see that the middle of this painting is a soft plain meadow There is a wide river in the northwest A group of deer is coming from the southeast Running towards the big river Led by a horned stag jumping off and jumping with a high-spirited expression Stained red under the hooves Look closely at a few plum blossoms It seems to have just trampled out of the plum forest There are nine female deer behind it Turning their heads to look back in the near view An old tree is towering in the sky The branches are lush and a few small ants are climbing up The distant view of the mountain is as light as a cover The clouds and mist are fluttering Not very clear, but it seems clear and far away

Wang Shizhen is a talented man in Beijing, a master of calligraphy and painting, look at this painting, the ink is sparse, concise and expressive, it can be called a rare wonderful pen in the world, but this painting seems to be leisurely and agile The female deer in the picture for some reason gives people a feeling of horror It seems that the action of turning her head to look back is to watch out for something But behind the last deer, the picture stops abruptly There is no tiger and wolf hunter At the same time, the smug demeanor of the leading male deer and the surging river in front of him form a contrast The plum blossoms stuck and trampled under the hooves are quite like blood stains All this makes the whole picture reveal a strange atmosphere It seems tense and the crisis is faint, and he is silent for a while

Zou Yinglong pointed to two lines of small characters in the lower left corner of the picture and said: "Enxiang, Xu Wei is provoking us."

The small characters read: Old cypress in the clouds and the sky Merlin flies with bloody hooves Goshawk fights with a mystery A game of eating Shooting beasts must be full of bows Chasing deer must be traced Shenmu three shakes see the wind Who knows how hard the grasshopper is hard Signed: Tian Shuiyue Suffix pebble-shaped yin pattern red seal The oil color is bright as blood Obviously, it has just been stamped not long ago

Meilin is Hu Zongxian's name Yunjian is the ancient name of Huating Lao Hui compares himself to Qin Hui Xu Jie is naturally clear about all this However, his pair of old eyes stayed on the picture but did not say a word for a long time

Suddenly, a family member outside happily reported: "The emperor has issued an order to demote Zhang Qi and dismiss him from his post and return to his hometown on the same day."

Zou Yinglong and Wang Shizhen looked at each other when they heard this, and their smiles showed slightly, with an unsurprising expression The three brothers, Xu Fan, Xu Kun, and Xu Ying, laughed and scolded the dog to deserve it The rest of the officials looked at each other with relief on their faces Glad that they had come to the right place They began to read the words in their stomachs and prepared to please the old man

Xu Jie looked at the picture scroll for a long time, and looked to the side again, and the three sons smiled like a goldfish that had been turned white, he sighed deeply, slowly closed his eyes, and his voice was hoarse, and he said **: "Grind the ink, take the pen and ......."

At noon, Chang Sihao was talking about the situation with Xu Wei and Liang Bolong There was a message from the palace: Xu Ge Lao asked for his resignation Chang Sihao was stunned: "This is strange Zhang Qi was demoted Why did Xu Jie resign Could it be that he is pretending again" Xu Wei smiled and said silently News kept coming throughout the afternoon First said that the emperor did not allow it The seal had been rejected Then said that Xu Ge Lao had three resignations in a row The emperor was furious After that, there was no news Chang Sihao was a little unsure of the situation Thinking about it until the evening, he saw Liu Jinwu and Qin Juexiang pulling their shoulders and waists, and hugged into the house with a smile and said: " The emperor has sent Xu Lao'er home on permission to play."

Chang Sihao's eyes lit up, and he couldn't believe it for a while, and asked again and again Liu Jinwu said: "There is no doubt that the emperor has asked Gonggong Feng to draft a decree to promote Li Chunfang to take over the post of first assistant, and to choose suitable people to supplement the cabinet as appropriate."

Chang Sihao was excited for a long time, turned around and asked Xu Weidao: "Sir, if there is no reason, Xu Jie will never resign so fiercely Could it be that there is any mystery in the painting you sent over" Liang Bolong also said: "I look at the meaning of the painting It is nothing more than a hint that he is in danger at hand It stands to reason that Xu Jie is a person who has gone through strong winds and waves Fu will be intimidated so simply Mr. What are you laughing at, don't be bored anymore."

Xu Wei narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "What has been done, it is better to think about how to put it to death next."

Liu Jinwu said with a smile: "Kill and kill and send the Buddha to the west Your old gentleman is so ruthless with hot water and fast knife" Several people laughed Xu Wei tore off his clothes with a sigh, revealing a scar like a reptile all over his body and said lightly: "If you are ruthless, I am afraid that someone is ten times better than Xu " Seeing that his skinny body was densely packed with so many wounds The weight of the punishment can be seen Everyone was stunned and couldn't laugh anymore

Chang Sihao's eyebrows were locked deeply, and he looked a little embarrassed: "Sir, it's better for Xu Jie to stay still for the time being."

Everyone was stunned, and Xu Wei rolled his eyes

Chang Sihao said: "Mr. is angry, Xu Jie's crimes are monstrous, and he is innocent of death, but delegating power is not the same as letting go His cronies Li Chunfang took over as the first assistant Zhang Juzheng is also in the cabinet The people of the Xu Party still control half of the imperial court If you kill Xu Jie, who has already gone into the wilderness, I am afraid that they will cover it up The emperor will read him as an old minister of the two dynasties and must be unbearable to maintain it The so-called people are afraid of forcing horses, and the poor are not chasing, let's still accept it when we see it."

Xu Wei's two eye bags kept wrinkling like a baby's scrotum shaking when learning to run He squinted his eyes and let out a sneer: "Hmph, hum, you can cure one but not die Master Hou, you are familiar with this officialdom, and it seems that you are very transparent I don't think you want to accept it if you want to see it, but you want to take the opportunity to buy the hearts of the Xu Party, take them for your own use, and consolidate your foundation in the court." Liang Bolong said: "Sir, where are you talking about...... Xu Wei interrupted: "Shut up, he can bluff you into this play, but he doesn't want to hide from my eyes."

"Fuck" Qin Juexiang's willow eyes also stood up, and he drew his knife and shouted: "Old thing, don't be embarrassed."

"Absolute sound" Chang Sihao scolded angrily, took out half of his sunset knife and slapped it back into the sheath, turned back to Xu Wei: "Sir, if you move Xu Jie, it is inevitable that people in the government and the opposition will be panicked You are right, I really want to take the opportunity to stabilize people's hearts and take them for my own use That's because I have another idea in my heart to realize it through them Now that foreign people are harassing and the people are in turmoil, if the Ming Dynasty does not change, it will be ......."

"Hahahaha" Xu Wei looked up to the sky and laughed a few times, suppressed his words, and said coldly: "Xu Jie, you want to reform, you have a clear banner, and you are all bright and bright, in fact, you are chewing the world, and you want to be private, and it is not all the way to the goods" Liang Bolong and Gu Siyi's faces were a little unnatural when they heard this, their lips opened, and they seemed to feel that it was not unreasonable, and they dispelled the idea of persuasion

Qin Juexiang was so angry that he jumped up like a dehydrated fish and scolded loudly: "You monkey sour dog shit, my eldest brother treats you like a guest when you are worth a lot of gold and jade, but you come to put such bullshit I don't want to think about who helped you in the first place If we didn't have to deal with it, you would have let people hammer your waist and smash eggs to death There is still a chance to chew the root of the tongue in front of us I tell you Xu Jieyi fell Daming is our brother's world Those who follow me prosper Those who oppose me die If you don't accept it, Lao Tzu is the first fucking split."

"Smack"

With the last exit, the word "you" rang out at the same time

Qin Juexiang staggered out four or five steps, touched the corner of his mouth, and saw blood, turned his face, his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief: "Big brother, you hit me"

Chang Sihao leaned over and didn't look at him, raised one hand sideways, and pointed outward

Qin Juexiang's face twisted fiercely, and he took two big steps forward, but suddenly bit his lip again, and twisted his body Liu Jinwu looked at this scene and shook his hands in a hurry, and he had the heart to say a few words to Chang Sihao, but he didn't know what to say, so he stomped his feet and chased out

Xu Wei straightened his neck and said to Chang Sihao: "Don't be coy, if you want to kill or chop, give Xu a good time."

Liang Bolong and Gu Siyi hurriedly came over to press him

Chang Sihao said with a crack in his liver: "Sir, where are you talking about this, how can I kill you?"

"Hmph" Xu Wei took off his filial piety clothes and threw them on the ground: "If you don't kill Xu Mou, you will leave" and walked out Chang Sihao said angrily: "Where are you going" Xu Wei shook his sleeves and grabbed the sky without looking back, and said: "The mountain man's mourning period has expired, go back to prison" The sound cracked like a split Liang Bolong chased after him quickly, and kept persuading Xu Wei ignored him

Looking at the backs of the two Chang Sihao's heart was beating for a while I felt that this Mr. Qingteng was acting unreasonably Gu Siyi picked up the filial piety clothes on the ground, gently patted the dust and said: "Mr. Xu is a little weird, he is still a good person, you don't have to hate him."

Chang Sihao snorted a cold smile in his nostrils: "I think he is so cynical It's just because of his conceit that he has been high but he has repeatedly failed the exam and can't hold it on his face If he was successful in the first exam back then, now he is probably also corrupted in the officialdom He has long been the same as Xu Jieyan Song and them, maybe he is more ruthless and powerful than them."

Gu Siyi was silent when he heard this, bowed his head for a long time, and said: "With his temper, I'm afraid I can't catch it back, I have nothing to do with Bolong, so I'll accompany him back" Chang Sihao said: "Why do you have to leave" Gu Siyi said: "You have a lot of important things to do, and it's not appropriate for us people to stay in the Hou Mansion for a long time" Chang Sihao frowned and said: "Sister, what are these words, don't you think I ...... too" Gu Siyi stretched out his hand to stop him from continuing After thinking about it, he lowered his head and said softly: "Alas, we women don't know anything The officialdom is changing, you should be careful yourself."

Look at her and turn away, Chang Sihao's heart was anxious and thought: "Now the way of this world The sublime has become another name for hypocrisy Strategy has become a shameless endorsement Let people believe in such an ideal of the sword family It's really like a joke The sword family is willing to keep it a secret from the outside world When the master of Zheng Meng said that he was embarrassed in every way It's not because of this It's just that today's husband has to do things and no one learns only Liao Gushi Know my sin and scold me Laugh and scold people Sooner or later, you will know what kind of heart and heart the surname Chang is."

The news came to the East Factory Guo Shuronghua, who was listening to the piano in the garden pavilion, slowly put down the teacup in his hand

His eyes slanted to the pavilion, and Kang Huai in the flowers would mean that his fingers turned to the soft piano, and the sound of the piano was faint

Lu Liang bowed behind the chair and said: "Dugong, as you expected, the Hou Ye is unwilling to do it, Xu Wei has a falling out with him, and there will be no such Qingteng military advisor to give advice in the future, even if they are in the limelight for a while, the pattern is limited after all."

Zeng Shiquan, who was standing on the other side, snickered with a smile on his face: "Hehehehe, even if Xu Wei doesn't leave, isn't all his calculations in the toes of the Duke" Suddenly, he saw that the Duke's neck was slightly tilted back, and there seemed to be a coldness in his eyes He hurriedly lowered his head and said no more

Guo Shu Ronghua pointed under his nose, looked at the grass in the garden, sniffed the fragrance of flowers, and said slowly: "Xu Wei is a masterpiece of a generation, and my plan may not be in his expectation, but he really saw the wrong Hou Ye this time."

Lu Liang realized: "Could it be that Xu Wei played tricks on the golden cicada to get out of its shell?"

Guo Shuronghua ignored it and continued: "He had expected that Xu Ge Lao would retreat down, and the 'ambitious' Hou Ye would not pursue it, and the next battle for power was a good show, and his great revenge had been avenged, and he was unwilling to contribute to a new careerist as a slave, so he chose to leave the stage at this time and go outside the whirlpool to enjoy this storm."

Kang Huai stopped and looked up: "Xu Ge Lao just retired home, how could he feel that the revenge has been avenged" Lu Liang said: "The real revenge is to take away the most cherished things from the other party and let him fall into nostalgia, regret and pain every moment For Xu Ge Lao, this thing is naturally power."

Kang Huai stared for a moment, and then said: "Xu Ge Lao also gathered people around in the morning to prepare for a meeting, obviously he wanted to raise a counterattack, but he suddenly changed his attitude and resigned, obviously it has nothing to do with that painting, but according to our people's reports, there are mountains and rivers on that painting, there are trees and deer, and there is nothing special The poem of the title is just a mockery and threat, why did Xu Ge Lao change his mind when he saw this painting?"

Guo Shu Ronghua smiled: "It's not so mysterious, it's just that there are five words hidden in the painting that touched his heart, but the riddles are boring Mr. Qingteng's intentions, you just have fun and have a good time."

Qin Juexiang finished receiving a slap with his hands on his cheeks and rushed out in a huff A few family members sitting idle on the side of the concierge saw it Hurriedly stood up and smiled and was about to speak He had already been knocked and twisted Covering his ribs and complaining Qin Juexiang didn't look at it Just down the steps There was also a person outside who was waiting to step up This one came out and almost bumped into each other Qin Juexiang jumped up and said: "You don't have long eyes when you walk."

The man smiled and asked, "Ouch, this is rude, may I ask if this is the mansion of the Marquis of Hou Chang in the clouds" Qin Juexiang looked at him: "What are you doing" The man smiled and said: "I am a descendant of the Xiao Mansion in Jiangnan On the order of the head of the family, I came to report the good news to the Hou Ye."

"Xiao Mansion ......" Qin Juexiang was stunned: "Report the good news, report the good news"

The man smiled and said, "Mrs. Qin gave birth to a baby boy a few days ago, the mother and child are safe, and the Hou Ye is happy to have Lin'er, isn't it a happy event?"

Qin Juexiang was in a trance for a moment, and immediately understood that Chang Sihao had something to hide from him, and when he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, he knew that Liu Jinwu was chasing after him, and he was afraid that those few family members would hear it, so he hurriedly grabbed this person's wrist and smiled: "So that's the case, I'm Qin Juexiang, my eldest brother is too busy with things, and now he is not in the house, if you don't dislike it, let's go to Duhulou first and have a few drinks, you tell me in detail."

At the same moment, in the evening breeze that still carried a little warmth, Zhang Qi took a whip in his hand, leaned on a small bull cart with an arched canopy like a forgotten stick, and slowly drove out of the city gate to the sound of "Gechang" and "Gechang" cowbells

Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Mrs. Wu took the bookcase and moved out of the canopy, took his hand and gently rubbed it and persuaded: "At the beginning, Shen Lian told Yan Song that he had fallen into calamity and annihilated the three clans, although you didn't earn the wealth of the sky this time, but you also ended up in peace What else is not satisfied" Zhang Qi said: "It's all your fault, what do you want to eat oranges and peel them yourself Now the orange peel is spicy, but the oranges are not eaten Wu smiled: "Okay, okay, what are you talking about now, anyway, you are not comfortable with this official, and you are reluctant to resign This time, it will be completely easy to fall" Zhang Qi sighed Now I don't have to worry about those messy things I do feel that my heart is much brighter than it used to be Wu arched his body and leaned over, pillowed his head on her husband's lap, and grabbed his hand on the side of his face Rubbed it lightly with his cheeks and smiled sweetly: "But I'm really scared You are usually so When things come to an end, you dare to throw your life to sue Xu Ge Lao I couldn't pull it when I went out I threw myself on the ground and cried but froze I pounced on the ground and cried but froze Fluttering out with a happy voice I found out that I have been married for so long It seems that in that moment of kung fu You really look like a man "

Zhang Qi snorted in his nostrils, his face was full of disapproval, turned his head and looked back, the capital was getting farther away, the sunset was getting west, the majestic and tall city wall was half red and half black by the sun, like an iron in calcination, thinking about the moment he broke into the palace, he was really not afraid of the sky falling and the ground was not afraid Compared with the days when the cat curled up and shrunk in the past, it was really heroic and dry At that time, my heart fluttered and my bones couldn't help but light a few taels of money The feeling of Xuanxuan's tenderness came from my fingers When I looked down at it, my wife's face was round and round in my hand, and I rubbed it like a kitten and only cared about the beauty I couldn't get out for a while, and I laughed to myself:" Who said I wasn't a man, I'll let you take a good look at it," he said, thrust the whip to the side, propped her up and pushed her into the canopy, followed by himself, and then pulled the curtain back and forth, Wu raised his elbow and chest, grabbed his mouth with his pink fist, stared at him timidly, and screamed with a grin: "Ah, you strong man, you want to eat oranges in broad daylight."

The wheels creak on the dirt road The grass on both sides is deep The mountains are green The old cow walks while pondering The pace of "horn click" and "horn click" is as leisurely and comfortable as the eaves after the rain The whip rod inserted in the crack of the wheel stands straight and straight The whip rope like a thin wicker swings left and right Bump Bump and clatter There is a sound The arch canopy is melted into the dusk The sound of joy floats slightly The sun warms the cowbell
