Spring flowers

Chapter 289, Question

The gate of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is open, officials go in and out, and catchers with knives and others are all like wolves and tigers. Lord Wen, who had just come out of prison, flinched aside. He bent down like a shrimp, and his heart was indignant. Three years of hard work, I dare not say that Da Yu's water control three times but does not enter the house, at least he comes back less.

Colleagues are corrupt, bosses are corrupt, and Wen asks himself, but he takes less. The person who took it still has resentment. Why is that? Officials should understand in their hearts that if others don't take it, they can't stay in this place.

Lord Wen avoided these catchers and bowed his head and walked slowly inside. He didn't dare to look up. At the beginning, the person who took him to Beijing was also like a wolf and a tiger. For half a year like a nightmare, Lord Wen dared not think back.

I came to the drip eaves to ask people, and Lord Xi, who was in charge of his case, had not yet arrived. This case is under the control of Lord Xi, which makes Lord Wen feel that he will never appear. Lord Xi's and mud kung fu are famous in the court. He can't offend senior officials, and he can't offend minor officials, but he can't do both times, and Lord Xi can only offend those who can offend.

If your case is in the hands of Lord Wen, it is famous as hatred; if your case is in the hands of Lord Quan, although it is longer, at least it can be delivered... Thinking of this, Lord Wen sighed and received less than 100 taels of silver. The family has lost all the money, and there is no money to give away. I want to be confused, and I still think that I have different streams and dirt. Now that I think about it, whether it's dirty or clear, it's good to be alive.

Knowing that there was a criminal name to be investigated, Lord Wen did not dare to stand with others, afraid to listen to their jokes, and did not want to listen to their proud words, so he stood beside a bush in the porch.

When the officials suddenly stopped talking, Lord Wen also looked up to see who it was. See two people coming out of it. As soon as these two people came out, everyone's eyes lit up. Not only do we know who they are, but only what they wear, but also attracts people to look at them in the spring breeze of February.

The man on the left is a cloud-patterned gold crown, inlaid with a piece of white jade, with phoenix eyes and a straight nose, and a noble body. He is the young marquis Huang; the man on the right is dressed in purple with a smile and a long jade stand. This person is Chu Huaixian.

They walked out from the inside, followed by Lord Wen and Lord Quan. The officials in the yard, even though they didn't know them, also saw from the expressions of others that the status of the two young men was not low. They also bowed their heads in silence and then secretly looked up.

Under the eaves, Chu Huaixian, the little marquis Huang, stood and said politely to Lord Wen and Lord Quan, "You don't have to see the adults off. Please go." Lord Wen and Lord Quan are not polite. It's okay to send them here from inside. The two arched their hands with smiles: "Sir, slow down, little marquis, slow down."

Some of the officials asked, "Who is this gentleman?" This is a person who doesn't know Chu Huaixian. Normally, the young marquis should be called first, which naturally attracts questions. The person next to him whispered, "Chu Shaofu's." The man didn't say anything anymore, but just looked at Chu Huaixian's face and remembered it, for fear that he would not know him next time.

Lord Wen didn't know Chu Huaixian, but he knew that his wife was thinking about going to the Chu family. The marquis is a title, while Chu Shaofu has real power. When he heard the whisper, he also looked at Chu Huaixian's face. He didn't look closely and saw Chu Huaixian's two black eyes looking at himself.

Lord Wen, who was shocked, quickly lowered his head and felt a little strange. When he couldn't help looking up again, he saw that Mr. Chu and the little marquis Huang had come closer. Chu Huaixian had a slight smile, while Huang Xiaohou was puzzled. He didn't understand why Chu Huaixian came here. The old official in front of him seemed to have been rubbed and rubbed on the yellow mud. Although it was not obvious ashes, it gave people a feeling of ashes.

"Sinner Wen Hao, see the prince, see the little marquis." Lord Wen quickly knelt down to salute. Chu Huaixian called him up and casually asked, "When did you come out?" Lord Wen quickly said, "The criminal officer was escorted to Beijing six months ago and stayed in prison for more than five months. After eleven times, he did not use punishment and compensated 2,333 taels of silver. Half a month ago, when the epidemic broke out, the criminal officer couldn't do it. The adults were gracerated and allowed the criminal officer to be investigated outside prison. The criminal officer pleaded guilty, and the family members of the criminal officer felt that the criminal officer should appeal again..."

Little Lord Huang couldn't help laughing and whispered to Chu Huaixian, "Are you going to the case?" This man is here and talky, like a court here. Chu Huaixian smiled patiently and listened to Lord Wen. He nodded slightly to him and only said one word: "Oh." He walked away with Lord Huang.

The two went outside the door and got on their horses, and Lord Huang threw Lord Wen behind his head. It is not surprising that the children of the family have grown up and walk outside. Chu Shaofu was in charge of too many things. Chu Huaixian asked Lord Wen if he might have any meaning. Lord Huang didn't ask about this matter, but only fought for Chu Huaixian again: "The people in the Ministry of Criminal Justice are getting more and more bastards. A year has passed, and it hasn't been found out who killed the Rong family?"

"If it is not found out for a day, the name of the suspect is hanging on my head." Chu Huaixian also took the sentence. Little Marquis Huang laughed and said, "What's your name? No one believes that you killed it." Chu Huaixian smiled seriously: "Then I have to ask often. Anyway, you have to give me an an Account."

The two turned their heads to the street together, followed by the family. Lord Huang said, "Next time, let Uncle Xiaoguo come with you and let him come in with a horse whip and roar. It's useful to protect him." Chu Huaixian laughed and said, "You don't know yet. He roared for who he was in the ceremonial department the day before yesterday and was scolded by Concubine Xiao. He went home and was slapped by Uncle Xiao. He was on the wall inside the house."

"No wonder this poor man sent me a letter the day before yesterday and asked me how many flower bones were next to Yingxiu Building. I replied to him that I didn't have time to read it by myself. If I had known this, I wouldn't have entertained him." Lord Huang also smiled, looked at the good sun in the corner of the wall, and said to Chu Huaixian, "This day is getting better and better. It's warmer. Go hunting outside the city. How many arrows will you lose to Prince Zhao during the Spring Festival? You said that it's hard to open the bow when it's cold. It's warm. You can rest assured to open the bow.

Chu Huaixian didn't want to go, and he was irritable: "Did I lose? His bow is good. The side horse avoided a pedestrian, and the little marquis Huang waved his hand and said, "Come on, let Hu Qin find a reason. I don't care. You can still fight with the little Prince Zhao among us. I've told you that the sun will be shining tomorrow. Let's go out of the city and don't have to come back at night. My uncle is worried about the flowers and bones of the embroidered building. I'll find some clean people for him..."

Chu Huaixian said, "No! We have been playing since we were young. I have to think about you. I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will be blamed. Little Marquis Huang said, "No, she won't." Chu Huaixian said, "No, no, no, I have to think about you."

The family listened to the whispers of the owners in the back, and their faces were also relaxed.

There was a quiet street sound in front of them, and Huang Xiaohou and Chu Huaixian were still laughing and arguing. Several riders came first, followed by Zhao Cunzong's sedan chair.

"Faling the sedan chair," Zhao Cunzong saw it in the sedan chair, which made people stop on the street, and the spring breeze showed his face. Huang Xiaohou and Chu Huaixian got off the horse and came to see the salute. Zhao Cunzong also said with a smile, "Go hunting outside the city in a few days. Huaixian, do you dare to go?" Huang Xiaohou suppressed his smile, and Chu Huaixian also smiled and said calmly, "It's time to ask the little prince for advice again."

Zhao Cunzong laughed and said, "That's a deal. I'll prepare a bow for you. At that time, you can say that my bow is good, and we can change it." Chu Huaixian smiled without any anger, his eyes were like a torch, and he answered very simply, "Oi!" The little marquis Huang beside him was afraid of losing his manners, so he didn't laugh out loud.

"Huaixian's posture is good, but his vision is far away, which is a little worse." Zhao Cunzong was not in a hurry, and Wei went to China next to the sedan chair. Zhao Cunzong said to Chu Huaixian again, "The marriage of the eldest girl in the house is Xiao Wang's good vision." Chu Huaixian seemed to smile, and Wei went to Hua's side by the sedan chair: "Thank you, little prince."

Little Lord Huang stopped talking. Little Zhao and Chu Huaixian met together. As long as there was a chance, the two of them would say a few words to each other. It was not until Zhao Cunzong's sedan chair left, and Chu Huaixian, with a blank face, got back on the sedan chair and looked sideways at the young marquis Huang: "The little prince is forced to protect the mountain. My sister is married. You have to get drunk."

In the departing Zhao Cunzong's car, a guard whispered to Wei Gohua: "The little prince can open a hundred stone bows, and no one in the court can compare with him. How much can your brother-in-law drive? Last time they had a match, I didn't see it in Beijing. Wei went back to him: "In front of my brother-in-law, if you want to say that he can drive 150 stones, you can say it casually when he is away."

The two of them covered their mouths and laughed and worked separately. Zhao Cunzong in the sedan chair heard it faintly and smiled.

Little Marquis Huang only asked casually in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. He and Chu Huaixian made an appointment to visit Xiaoguo's uncle. Then Lord Diwen, who was asked casually, bowed his head and entered the Ministry of Criminal Justice and went home in high spirits.

The weather was good, and Mrs. Wen was drying clothes in the yard. She was stunned when she saw her husband coming back. Get started with glory and dry things, but you can know it by looking at your face. Mrs. Wen was also overjoyed, and she was still on her clothes and asked, "Is it unfair?" Lord Wen smiled and said, "How can injustice be redressed in a day?"

came to help the lady hang the clothes. Mrs. Wen didn't let him do it: "This is not a man's job. Let people see that no matter how you become an official in the future, you can't suppress people."

"If you can't suppress it, you can't suppress it. Things are woven, and it's not up to others." Lord Wen still helped his old wife carry the clothes. This is the house I found temporarily after arriving in Beijing, and several families live in a large courtyard. At this time, the one who went out was not there, and there was no one else in the yard. Lord Wen asked his wife, "What did the Chu family reply to you?"

Mrs. Wen showed an embarrassed look, and Lord Wen laughed and said, "Just say it." Mrs. Wen said, "It's not bad news, and it's not good. I haven't replied yet. I was thinking that we can't afford to send it. It's better not to send one or two taels of silver. There is a little brother in her room. Let me do some work for him.

Lord Wen pondered, "Let me tell you the truth, in fact, I have replied." Mrs. Wen's clothes fell down, showing a look of fear: "You don't agree, do you? I knew I wouldn't agree, but as long as there is a way to live, I have to ask. Mrs. Wen comforted her: "Madam, I didn't agree, and I didn't agree, but today I went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to report. In front of a yarder, Mr. Chu said a few words to me." Thinking about it, there were only two sentences and asked, and there was only one word when I left. In terms, there is only one and a half sentences.

"But when the officials in the yard saw it, they all came to congratulate me and asked me how I climbed up." Lord Wen thought deeply and said, "Well, he doesn't know me. How can he come to listen to me? Mrs. Lao, I will go to your relatives tomorrow to ask if there is a reply. We don't know.

Mrs. Wen was in full bloom and said happily, "Okay." She couldn't wait for a moment. She threw down her clothes and wiped her hands in her skirt: "I'll go now."
