"I used to work, but because I was good at boxing and kicking, I was spotted by a businessman and guarded the warehouse for him. I just stayed up all night and got some sleep."
"No wonder you're okay during the day."
"yes!"
"What about your family?"
Sister Huang asked a little shyly.
The night wind blows, making people feel restless.
What a sultry night!
King Wei said: "Aye is no longer here, and Aniang is doing some repair work outside the country."
Princess Wei returned to her parents' home with her children, and Prince Wei's Mansion in Qianzhou became an unpopular place.
As for Li Mi, in the eyes of King Wei, he is no longer there.
The palace was often used as a place for spiritual practice, to cultivate the mind and nature.
"Then will you come again in the future?"
Sister Huang looked at him boldly.
"Come!"
King Wei said: "But I will go out tomorrow to protect the merchant and resell a sum of goods."
"How soon will you be back?"
"Soon, you can take care of the business and wait for me to come back."
"oh!"
Later, King Wei returned to his residence.
Li Han is drinking.
"Didn't you sleep with Miss Huang?"
"without!"
"The origin of that person is unclear, but I think he must be in Yang Songcheng's group."
"Kill him!"
"Already killed." Li Han said with great interest: "Yang Songcheng is staring at you like this, you are not prepared to do anything?"
"I want to give him a gift!"
The next day, King Wei disappeared.
…
Chunsheng Station is an important node from Northern Xinjiang to Chang'an. It is very large and has many good horses.
Early in the morning, the guests in the inn went out one after another.
Ta-ta-ta!
A horse came quickly.
"It's early in the morning and you're still in a hurry. What's the urgency?"
The guests looked at the visitor curiously.
Yi Chengqi heard the sound and came out.
"Change horses!" The man dismounted and handed the reins to Qi Mao.
"Identity!" Qi Mao said calmly.
This is an official horse, and only officials can call it.
The man opened his bamboo hat and took out a sign.
"This is……"
"This is the sign from the palace!" an official said in surprise, then looked at the visitor carefully, "You...are...have met the king!"
Qi Mao's heart trembled, "Which king?"
The postman beside him whispered: "Such a tall and burly King Wei!"
"I've met the king!"
King Wei nodded, "Prepare the horses, and also prepare some dry food."
The best horse was drawn and the best dry food was given.
A piece of silver was thrown over. Qi Mao caught it and said in surprise: "Your Majesty, there is no need to give money!"
"I know that this account is not easy to get, so take it!"
King Wei mounted his horse and drove away.
Qi Mao said with mixed feelings: "It's hard to get money from the clan. If you can't get it, you have to make up for it yourself later. Others won't care about this... King Wei! We usually hear rumors of cruelty, but I didn't expect it to be like this.
"
"People's words are terrible!" said an old postman.
"Yes! People's words are scary."
"King Wei seems to be in a hurry to go to Chang'an. Is there something urgent?"
…
"I've met Young Inspector Han!"
Han Shitou walked in the palace, and everyone along the way saluted.
When they arrived at the Liyuan, the emperor and his concubine were playing together.
Han Shitou waited patiently for the song to finish before going in.
"Your Majesty, the head of the country would like to see you."
"What's the matter?" The emperor was a little unhappy.
The imperial concubine stood up and left.
This woman is so smart!
"I said I came here for this year's money and food matters."
"Um!"
After a while, Yang Songcheng came in.
One is the father-in-law and the other is the son-in-law.
The father-in-law saluted, and the son-in-law said calmly: "The father-in-law has been reduced."
Yang Songcheng raised his head and said with a smile: "I am old. Your Majesty is protected by the gods and is naturally healthy. But I can only look at my gray hair and worry. I don't know how many more years I can survive."
"Oh!" The emperor smiled and said: "If the gods are willing to provide some protection, I will also be willing to give it to the abbot."
Yang Songcheng sighed, "As an emperor, you will naturally be protected by gods. What kind of person am I?"
Han Shitou smiled on the side.
Divine protection refers to the authority of the emperor.
Can the authority of the emperor be given to others?
Anyone who dares to ask for it is a traitor and traitor.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid I may not be able to get enough money and food this year."
"Why?" The emperor picked up the water cup, which contained medicinal tea made from top-grade medicinal materials. Just such a cup would have taken many people to search for it in the deep mountains for a long time.
Money and food will naturally be consumed countless times.
Yang Songcheng said: "The southern expedition was too expensive, and the rewards were too many."
The emperor looked at him, "Maybe he can support it?"
Han Shitou squinted his eyes, thinking that if Yang Songcheng said that he could not cope with it, the emperor would just change him to the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
Yang Songcheng smiled, "Yes! But..."
"explain!"
The emperor took a sip of the medicinal tea and felt a little bitter.
"We need to add more taxes."
The emperor almost did not hesitate, "Yes!"
As he said that, he put the water glass on the table.
This means not drinking.
Han Shitou stepped forward to put away the water cup, walked out of the hall, and poured the medicinal tea on the ground.
On the ground, a grass grew extremely lush.
When I went in again, the topic had changed.
"Your Majesty, there is a vacancy for the Minister of Household Affairs. I think that Pan Yong has been working in the Household Department for many years and is dedicated to his work. Last year, Your Majesty even praised him for his good financial management..."
The emperor said calmly: "Oh! I don't remember."
"Your Majesty, someone recently impeached Wang Yuan for corruption. I asked about it and found out that Wang Yuan had offended someone back then. This person still did not forget this matter many years later, so he launched his colleagues to impeach him. I believe that such matters cannot be ignored and should be scolded.
"
The emperor looked at him, "Yes!"
Yang Songcheng smiled and resigned.
Han Shitou stepped forward to serve, and the emperor said quietly: "It is true that Wang Yuan is corrupt, and the impeachment of his censor is based on righteous indignation..."
But Wang Yuan is the emperor's man.
If a minister is corrupt, the emperor's reaction should be anger.
But in actual operation, it depends on who the minister is.
For others, be strict and quick.
Our own people, then, is worth debating.
The emperor looked at Han Shitou, "What do you think of Shitou?"
Han Shitou said: "It's excusable."
The emperor nodded, "Yes! It's excusable."
But once Pan Yong became the minister of household affairs, the household affairs department would become Yang Songcheng's small courtyard, and the emperor might not even be able to place an eyeliner in the future.
Therefore, it is difficult to say who takes advantage of this exchange.
But what about Datang?
Old dog!
Where is the country?
What about Sheji?
What is it in your eyes?
Han Shitou lowered his eyes, hiding the disdain in his eyes.
A waiter came outside.
"Your Majesty, there is news from the mirror that King Wei has entered Chang'an."
The emperor said coldly: "That traitor came back without my permission."
Han Shitou said: "How about I ask my servant?"
Later, Han Shitou came out of the palace.
King Wei has arrived at the palace.
"King!"
The steward was ‘overjoyed’ and asked, “Have you obtained His Majesty’s permission?”
The prince is not allowed to wander around at will, this is the rule.
King Wei said: "Something's wrong."
The steward followed him in and talked about recent events in the mansion.
King Wei interrupted him, "What's going on with Yang Songcheng recently?"
The manager must also be responsible for seeking information, otherwise he is considered incompetent.
"Recently, a minister in the Ministry of Revenue was seriously ill and passed away. Yang Songcheng wanted to get Pan Yong to take over."
"His confidant?"
"Yes, hardcore!"
"knew."
As soon as King Wei sat down, Han Shitou came.
"Your Majesty asked, why did the king return to Chang'an?"
King Wei stood with his hands tied, "I miss Aye and Aniang, come back and see them."
"Do you know that the prince cannot leave the country without an edict?"
"Knowing it, I just miss it in my heart and forget it."
This is hob meat!
The waiters who followed were dumbfounded.
Among the emperor's sons and daughters, only King Wei dared to do this.
Han Shitou said calmly: "Your Majesty, please wait in the palace for your Majesty's orders."
"yes!"
After Han Shitou left, King Wei still went out wearing his dirty clothes.
The steward advised: "Your Majesty, why don't you take a bath first before going out? Otherwise..."
With his unkempt appearance, even if the emperor came, he might not be able to recognize his son.
"Come back and wash it again!"
King Wei went outside the imperial city.
Just squat on the edge.
He looks like a beggar.
…
Pan Yong was less than forty years old and in the prime of life. He had been in the Ministry of Household Affairs for more than ten years and could be called Yang Songcheng's confidant.
Recently, an old servant was seriously ill and passed away. Yang Songcheng praised Pan Yong with a smile. Everyone knew that this man was going to take over.
If you become the Minister of Household Affairs, you will be able to enter the imperial court.
That’s a temple!
It's like a place overlooking the world like a god.
A place that can determine people's life and death, honor and disgrace.
Pan Yong was inevitably a little proud, but he tried his best to control it.
After tidying up the documents on the desk, it was time to go to the Yamen.
Pan Yong stood up and walked out of the check-in room.
Smiling kindly all the way.
After seeing Yang Songcheng, Pan Yong saluted and asked, "Aren't you ready to leave, Zhang?"
Yang Songcheng still held documents in his hand.
"I still have to go find Zhongshu to discuss some matters."
"The father-in-law has worked hard."
Yang Songcheng smiled and nodded, "Your matter is almost done."
Pan Yong is overjoyed!
He bowed his head to the ground and said, "Thank you so much, father-in-law!"
In exchange for Wang Yuan's future and Pan Yong's, Yang Songcheng did it calmly.
"Good job!"
"Wherever the head of the state points, the subordinate will go!"
Yang Songcheng nodded and said with a smile: "You can go wherever your Majesty points you!"
"Oops! I actually forgot, I shouldn't, I shouldn't!"
Even the emperor could forget it. This expression of loyalty can be called thorough.
When the officials of the Ministry of Revenue saw this scene, they felt secretly sad and a little awe-inspiring at the same time.
Pan Yong has gained the respect of the father-in-law, and his career in the future is limitless!
So everyone became more and more respectful.
Many people gathered around Pan Yong to flatter him.
After seeing the gate of the imperial city, Pan Yong said: "Everyone, please go back!"
Everyone salutes.
Pan Yong smiled and said: "It's like saying goodbye!"
His words were a bit naughty, which showed that he was in a very good mood.
After leaving the imperial city, Pan Yong looked at the colorful clouds on the horizon and couldn't help but feel relieved.
A dirty beggar came slowly and suddenly moved his body in this direction. Pan Yong subconsciously dodged it, and the beggar also moved... When the two sides passed each other, the beggar suddenly tilted his body.
He leaned into Pan Yong's arms.
A stench caused by not taking a bath for many days rushed into Pan Yong's nose.
He retched and slapped her away without hesitation.
Snap!
The beggar covered his face.
Behind him, the officials from the Ministry of Revenue rushed over after seeing this.
"Thief, you dare to block the road!"
The beggar raised his head.
Someone rubbed his eyes and said, "Hey! Why does this person look familiar?"
Although this person is gray and gray, his facial features are still clear.
A chamberlain came out of the imperial city and said, "I have been ordered to summon the king. The king is here just in time. Please come with me."
"King?"
Pan Yong took a closer look.
Isn't this King Wei?
"Your Majesty..."
I actually slapped King Wei?
I'm crazy?
Pan Yong wished he could cut off his hand.
But now that the matter has come to this, he can only apologize.
"Your Majesty, this subordinate is guilty."
The chamberlain happened to be here, and at worst he could go into the palace to plead guilty. With King Wei's appearance, except for people who are familiar with him, who would be able to recognize him?
The father-in-law is still in the imperial city, so he should be able to make decisions for me.
Thinking of this, Pan Yong felt relieved.
"This king is a man with clear grudges and grievances!"
King Wei covered his face and raised his feet.
Kick him away hard.
"Ouch!"
…
"The head of the country! The head of the country!"
Yang Songcheng, who had just come out of Zhongshu Province, saw the clerk sweating profusely and asked, "What's the matter?"
The clerk said: "King Wei kicked Pan Yong's leg off!"
Yang Songcheng was startled and immediately asked: "Why?"
After learning that Pan Yong slapped King Wei first, Yang Songcheng couldn't help but get angry.
"He's floating!"
Who can slap King Wei?
Only the emperor!
"King Wei looked like a beggar and bumped into him."
"This is intentional!"
Yang Songcheng sneered, "Enter the palace!"
The emperor, who was about to finish his meal, was alarmed.
"Your Majesty, King Wei kicked Pan Yong's leg off."
The emperor was startled when someone outside reported, "Your Majesty, the abbot of the country wants to see you."
"Let that traitor come too!"
After a while, Yang Songcheng and King Wei appeared in the palace.
"You traitor!" shouted the emperor.
King Wei knelt down and said, "Ah, it was Pan Yong who made the move first."
Yang Songcheng said: "The king disguised himself as a beggar and bumped into Pan Yong. He slapped the king. This was a big mistake, but the king is like this..."
The emperor sneered, "Sir, what else do you have to say?"
"Aye, he bumped into it himself!"
King Wei looked angry and eager to try.
Yang Songcheng did not move, and even looked forward to it in his heart.
The emperor has good hands at his side. If King Wei dares to attack him, it will be very lively.
"Looking for someone to ask!"
The emperor seemed prepared to deal with the matter impartially.
Han Shitou went to find the witnesses himself.
A total of more than ten people were found to enter the palace.
There was chaos outside the palace.
"Is King Wei crazy?"
"I don't know if he is crazy or not, but if you break the legs of an important minister, it won't end!"
"Yes! The rabbit dies and the fox is sad. Your Majesty will deal with him immediately!"
"Hey! Pan Yong's leg is broken, so isn't the Minister of Household Affairs now vacant?"
"yes!"
Qualified officials hurried back, either to seek connections or to make plans.
In the palace, after Concubine Shu got the news, she couldn't help but sigh, "What should we do?"
Then she sent people to find out the news.
The queen smiled happily after hearing the news and said, "That mad dog will one day be unlucky."
There were various reactions from outside, but King Wei remained the same.
More than ten people were waiting outside the hall.
The Minister of Dali Temple was also there, and he felt a little aggrieved.
Shouldn't this matter be handled by me?
Why did His Majesty take action personally?
"Whoever dares to add insult to injury or talk nonsense will be severely punished!" Han Shitou came out to ask.
The first person to speak was the official.
"I saw Pan Yong's body swaying for a moment, and then he bumped into the king."
The second one was a petty official, "The little man saw Pan Yong and went up to him."
The third one...
"I saw the king dodge, but I didn't avoid it."
The fourth one, "The king dodges."
In the palace, the emperor glanced at King Wei.
"Is my son someone he can bully? Well done!"
Pan Zheng is floating!
Yang Songcheng secretly hated him.
Then the two resigned.
They walked out of the hall side by side.
King Wei said calmly: "Tell your dog to stay away from me!"
Yang Songcheng was stunned.
Is there any truth to this matter?
But it was impossible for those officials to be bribed by King Wei one by one.
This is wrong!
He left the palace to find Pan Zheng.
"He just bumped into it himself!"
"Think more carefully!"
Pan Zheng thought about it carefully.
"The King of Wei was standing in front of him dirty. He suddenly shook. The subordinate was disgusted and avoided it. He..."
"How does he cope?"
"He seemed to have moved a bit, and then the official moved again..."
When you see something dirty, your first reaction is to avoid it.
The two servants stood facing each other and began to review the game.
One is King Wei, dodge, and the other servant also dodges.
"Yes, that's it. I'm worried about being hit by him."
"But in the eyes of outsiders, he is avoiding you!" Yang Songcheng said coldly: "Are you feeling arrogant?"
"I swear I didn't..." Pan Yong made countless oaths, but Yang Songcheng still walked away.
"I am really unjust!"
…
Lin'an.
Yue Er's family is having a meal.
His wife Zhao first scolded Yue Sanshu for soiling his clothes today, and then scolded Yue Er.
"If you can't set up a stall well, you will be in trouble. But can you be in trouble for a lifetime? You don't have to be looked down upon by others!"
These words hurt the man's heart.
But Yue Er smiled and said: "Don't tell me, noble people also like to touch porcelain. I even learned from my husband."
"who?"
"King Wei!"
"He learned to play, right?"
"No, his talent is even more powerful than being a husband!"
