Nightwatcher Chapter 107: Dedicating crime and meritorious service
In an instant, the princes and princes turned their heads to look at the eldest princess. Princess Lin'an, who was holding Emperor Yuan Jing's arm, couldn't help but look over.
The crown prince swept away the princess.
At the same time, there was an idea in their hearts: Huaiqing wanted to promote their own people.
There are two ways for princes and princes to expand their power. One is to win courtiers and make them their supporters. Two: promote confidant.
Because of the Yuanjing Emperor's strong desire for control and the emperor's sophistication, the other princes, including the prince, did not dare to form parties blatantly.
The latter is their usual method.
But it also depends on the timing. The princes and princes felt that it was not a good time now because the task was too difficult.
Emperor Yuan Jing squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Who can choose Huaiqing?"
The eldest princess replied: "Xu Qi'an, the gong that beats the people's yamen."
The second princess suddenly realized, "Yeah", and said innocently: "It was the gong that showed great admiration for my sister on the day of the ancestor worship? My sister was still talking and laughing with him."
These words are vicious!
In front of Emperor Yuan Jing, the princess was darkened with a dark jab.
Be aware that the eldest princess has not yet been married, although Emperor Yuan Jing has been obsessed with monasticism in recent years, his sons and daughters have not taken care of their marriages. But the princess always attracts bees and butterflies like this.
The eldest princess continued: "The emperor should have heard of this person. He is the nephew of Hundred Guardian Xu Pingzhi who was implicated in the tax and silver case."
Emperor Yuan Jing finally came to be interested: "I remember that there was such a person who made fake silver. If it weren't for the inconvenient storage of fake silver and the huge salt consumption, I would let Si Tianjian refine it in large quantities. "
The material of fake silver is salt, and the salt is too expensive. After hearing the report from the Sitianjian warlock, Emperor Yuanjing dispelled the idea of mass-producing fake silver.
"More than that, when this person was on duty in Changle County, he performed well and repeatedly solved murder cases." The princess added a fire.
Emperor Yuan Jing smiled and said: "In that case, you don't have to do it again."
The eldest princess bowed her head and was sincerely convinced: "Father Emperor Mingjian, just yesterday, the bronze gong Xu Qi'an clashed with a silver gong in the yamen and severely wounded him with a single knife. The following offenses, according to the law, should be cut in the waist." /
Now that people are locked in the dungeon, children can ask the emperor to allow him to atone for his sins. "
The eldest princess did not explain the reason for the conflict, and did not defend Xu Qi'an, because she knew that these were not important.
The father doesn’t care who is right and who is wrong. The father only cares about who is useful and who can do things.
Sure enough, Emperor Yuan Jing didn’t even hesitate and thought, and nodded: “Well, since Huaiqing interceded for him, I will allow him to make up for his merits and cooperate in handling the case. If the real culprit who destroyed the Taizu Temple cannot be caught within half a month, I Cut him directly."
"Thanks to my father."
....
The princes and princes left the imperial study room and joined their respective guards. The eldest princess took her sword from the chief guard.
The second princess held the arms of her elder brother and the prince, and whispered: "Oh, Huaiqing gave me a step ahead."
The prince shook his head: "It may not be a good thing. Even Wei Yuan finds this case tricky. Huaiqing is just taking a leisurely move. It is an unexpected joy that the gong can really solve the case. If it fails, Huaiqing will not lose it. It's about to be cut in half."
"Huh, Huaiqing's heart is really dark." The second princess wrinkled her small nose and asked: "Brother, what's going on at Yongzhen Shanhe Temple?"
While walking, the prince looked around and whispered: "This case is not easy, otherwise Wei Yuan will not be sad. I am afraid that only the father will know the secret."
Of course, I will also know in the future... He added silently in his heart, and at the same time, the female teacher's face like dust appeared in his mind, and his heart was full of resentment.
"Lin'an!"
The eldest princess yelled suddenly and stopped the brother and sister.
The prince and the second princess turned their heads together, and Princess Lin'an replied fiercely: "What are you doing!"
Tighten the prince's brother's arm.
The eldest man walked over and said, "Nothing..."
In the relaxed expressions of the brothers and sisters at the same time, suddenly a sword struck the second princess's buttocks.
In the severe pain, the second princess first turned pale, and a few seconds later she cried out with a "wow", pointing at the princess and screamed: "Huaiqing, this palace is going to kill you."
The royal brothers and sisters, hypocritically came to persuade and act as peacemakers.
The prince sternly said, "Huaiqing, you are too much."
"It's just a test of Lin'an's martial arts. If Lin'an is not convinced, you can also test the school like this palace." The princess turned around lightly, and the green silk "brushed" unfolded, smart and beautiful.
The second princess looked at her back and cried out: "I want to sue, go to my father to sue."
The prince said helplessly: "Someday, my father doesn't want to take care of you now."
If there are conflicts or fights between the princes, Emperor Yuan Jing will definitely be in charge, and he must be strictly controlled and severely punished.
When the emperors fight, everyone will take a calm attitude.
The main reason is that most of the princes have practiced martial arts, and they will be injured in fights. Among the few emperors, the eldest princess is practicing martial arts. If the other emperors are fighting, they will slap in the face more gracefully and become impatient. They will grab their hair and bite.
It hurts the royal face, so he is reluctant to go online, usually in private.
The princess of Lin'an bit her silver teeth, cursing with broken words: "You wait for me, I will take all your things."
.....
The next day, early morning.
Wei Yuan, who had just finished meditating, received an oral order from the palace.
"Your Majesty's verbal message is brought here, Wei Gong, go to the dungeon and invite that gong." The **** who delivered the verbal message was humble:
"Your Majesty didn't eat a few bites this morning. He is very mindful. I hope that Wei Gong will solve the case soon."
Wei Yuan smiled when sending someone to send off the eunuch.
Yang Yan, who came to accompany his foster father for breakfast, breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "It seems that the foster father doesn't need to bother to save him."
Nangong Qianrou let out a "hehe" and laughed at Yang Yan as a silly martial artist, and said:
"Why do you think the foster father said that to the princess last night?"
Yang Yan thought for a while, and then realized it.
Yesterday, the princess sent someone to investigate the whole story of the conflict between Xu Qi'an and Zhu Chengzhu. I think she is more concerned about him.
The foster father deliberately hinted at the elder princess last night. Out of the tacit understanding of wise people, the eldest princess took the opportunity to recommend Xu Qi'an to his majesty, and let him take his sins and make merits.
In this way, Xu Qi'an can be justified and exonerated, and no one can say anything.
Yang Yan had long expected that his adoptive father would rescue Xu Qi'an, put him in the dungeon, and sentence him to be cut in seven days, all for the people in the yamen.
The greater the power, the less you can do what you want.
He frowned: "But if Xu Qi'an doesn't solve the case in half a month?"
Wei Yuan smiled: "Then he can only die, and then enter the rivers and lakes. Xu Qi'an, the man, changed from bright chess to dark chess."
The foster father actually valued him so much...Nangongqian softly and Yang Yan straightened her face.
Wei Yuan seemed to remember something, and squinted his eyes and smiled and said: "Send someone to inform Li Yuchun, and your Majesty specifically allows Qi'an to commit crimes and meritorious service, and he is reinstated by Li Yuchun."
Pause for a moment, Wei Yuan's expression seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "A little grander."
.....
Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao, under the leadership of the jailer, came to the dungeon with joy and took their colleagues out of prison.
At this time, Xu Qi'an was pouring his inflated bladder, holding the wall with one hand and his brother with the other. He was startled by the sudden rush of colleagues and jailers, and his small hand shook...
"Damn..." Xu Qi'an cursed and wiped his hands on the prison uniform.
"Ning Yan, Ning Yan, you don't have to die!" When the jailer took out the key to open the door, Song Tingfeng laughed and said:
"Your Majesty allows you to make up for your demerits and make meritorious deeds."
Your Majesty?
Xu Qi'an was taken aback for a moment, his first thought was: Damn it, is No.1 your Majesty? !
He then denied his guess, patted Song Tingfeng's shoulder calmly, and said solemnly, "What's going on?"
Song Tingfeng was eager to share his joy, without realizing that he had been secretly counted, and told Xu Qi'an what had happened in detail.
Sangbo exploded....Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple collapsed...Xu Qi'an's pupils shrank, and he instantly thought of the weird cry for help he heard when he was worshipping the ancestors.
In other words, the previous guess was not wrong.
The cry for help was not aimed at him, he just heard the cry for help because of some speciality.
So, who is the cry for help coming from Sampori?
[Wu Ai] "Where is the divine sword enshrined in the temple?" Xu Qi'an pondered for a long time and asked.
Song Tingfeng shook his head, saying that he didn't know much, and then said: "Because of your business, the boss was dismissed. After you were locked in the dungeon, he ran downstairs to Haoqi, scolded the Yamen, and beat Wei Gong in public. 'S face..."
This is indeed what Brother Chun can do... Xu Qi'an was a little moved.
Retrieving the uniform, waist badge, and saber from the prison head, Xu Qi'an was relieved that he was told that the jade mirror was taken away by his cousin.
Unsurprisingly, Wei Yuan did not intend to kill him. Even without his majesty's pardon, Dad Wei would surely save him from a reasonable and reasonable starting point.
Out of the dungeon, the two of them walked outside the yamen, approaching the gate, and suddenly heard a gong knocking.
Li Yuchun was guarded by several gongs and entered the Yamen. The lead gong beat the ordinary gong and shouted:
"Officer Li Yinluo reinstated..."
The officials and guards came out to watch, pointing at Li Yuchun.
Brother Chun has red face and red ears, bowing his head and walking quickly.
Not far away, the three little brothers looked at each other, and Xu Qi'an suggested: "The chief officer is reinstated, it's gratifying, let's not bother."
Can't afford to lose this person... Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao nodded, and the three reached an agreement.
Brother Chun, this was fixed by Wei Yuan. Yesterday you slapped him in the face in public, and today he slapped you in the face with gongs and drums... Xu Qian decided in his heart that he would not easily offend Wei Yuan in the future. .
People who have lost a good chicken are usually not big enough.
Xu Qi'an was stinky all over, and was anxious to go home to announce the good news. He didn't stop at the yamen, and rode his beloved little mare, and hurried home.
After half an hour, I returned to Xu Mansion.
Lao Zhang, the concierge, almost burst into tears of joy. Xu Qi'an threw the rein to him and went into the yard, planning to tell his family first.
At this point, I had already eaten breakfast at home, and my second uncle was on duty. He stayed at home for the New Year alone and spoke with his mother in the back room.
Seeing Xu Qi'an coming back, her aunt's beautiful eyes lit up, and she immediately suppressed her joy, giving her nephew a habitual expression of disgust.
Xu Xinnian surprisedly said: "The princess did so soon?"
Xu Qi'an was startled, and suddenly cleared his thoughts. No wonder Emperor Yuan Jing would know his little character. This is unreasonable.
It was the eldest princess who recommended herself in front of Emperor Yuan Jing...Well, it is not ruled out that Wei Yuan seized the opportunity and created a chance for him to redeem his merits.
"Don't be optimistic too early, something has happened..." Xu Qi'an glanced at her aunt, and paused: "Let’s talk later... Hey, these two days have made my aunt worried and ashamed. Hearing. Old saying, my aunt stayed up all night for me."
When my aunt heard that, the pan was fried, she slammed her bare-mouthed son, and her white sharp chin raised: "Huh~"
Xu Xinnian went on to say: "Father went to the Sitianjian yesterday and wanted to ask the magicians in white clothes to intercede, but he heard bad news."
He hesitated for a moment: "Monitor is sick."
"What?" Xu Qi'an questioned: "June is sick?"
First Grade Warlock, I'm sick!
Moreover, he is a warlock of the spiritual system that starts with saving the dead and healing the wounded.
The old detective Xu Qi'an immediately began to make an association whether it was related to Sangbo's change. It's impossible for Master Jianzheng to shut himself in the gossip platform, look at the world, watch, and catch a cold.
"The specific situation is not known." Xu Xinnian said: "I will go to the Yudaowei camp to find my father and calm his heart."
The mother, who was groaning with her cousin all day long, stayed up all night worrying about it, and I can imagine how uncomfortable my father was.
"Okay!" Xu Qi'an said, "I'll go to see Lingyue and Lingyin first, and there will be business later, so I have to go back to the Yamen."
I'll talk about Sangbo in the future, not in a hurry.
"By the way, I left that mirror in the study, so let's go and fetch it by myself. The monk you asked me to find has already left, saying that there is a clue from the younger brother." Xu Xinnian said.
Let me just say, how could No. 1 be the emperor? No. 1 didn't even know about it... or my dad Wei and the princess were reliable.
Xu Qian came to the backyard and saw Xu Lingyin sitting down under the eaves, a small one.
No one played with her, and no one was in the mood to take care of her.
The stupid child also knew that the eldest brother had an accident, and he was not happy to find the goose to play with, hanging his head, holding a branch and scribbling on the ground.
"Hey, whose stupid kid is this." Xu Qi'an stopped not far away and smiled.
Xu Lingyin raised her head abruptly and stared at him blankly. A few seconds later, her small face filled with a bright smile.
"Big Brother!"
She suddenly got up, stepped on her short legs, opened her hands, and rushed towards Xu Qi'an.
Xu Qi'an also greeted him, and in Xu Lingyin's smiling expression, a staggered one hugged the sister behind him.
Xu Lingyin fluttered blankly and looked back blankly.
"Uuuuuu...Big Brother..."
Xu Lingyue hugged Xu Qi'an's waist with both hands, burying her soft body in her cousin's arms, crying.
The younger sister's waist was gripped, her hair exuded a delicate fragrance, and her body also smelled of rouge gouache.
Xu Qi calmed her back and comforted: "It's okay, Big Brother is back."
No matter what, Xu Lingyue twisted her waist and cried harder.
The last time her eldest brother was imprisoned in the yamen of the penalty department, Xu Lingyue was already very sad, but that time was a conflict with the yamen, and it was a personal grievance after all.
But this time, the caller who came to the mansion to send a message said that the eldest brother will be cut at the vegetable market in seven days.
The nature is completely different.
Of course, Xu Lingyue's care is also related to the rapid development of her relationship with her cousin during this time.
"Ah, it's better to be a younger sister of this era, soft and cute." Xu Qi'an hugged her beautiful body~IndoMTL.com~ with emotion.
In his previous life, he didn't have a sister, but he had a cousin who didn't know how to behave like a coquettish or cute, and she didn't know how to cry and show weakness. She would only sneer at you with disdain: Heh, silly pen.
"Big Brother, Big Brother..." Xu Lingyin jumped on the spot twice, and said happily: "I'm going to tell my mother, my mother definitely doesn't know you are back."
Xu Qi'an wanted to tell her that he walked in through the door, not came back over the wall. After thinking about it, I felt that there was no need to explain.
Nodded: "Go!"
"Right," he called Xu Lingyin again, and said: "You are so happy, is it because you can eat three bowls of rice at night?"
Xu Lingyin was taken aback. He didn't expect the eldest brother to know what he thought, the eldest brother is really amazing.
She ran away in fear.
