After leaving Liangshan, Ximen Qing was secretly happy, but thought: "When Song Jiang left the mountain the day before yesterday, all the brothers only sent him across the water, and then no more. Only I, Wu Yong, and Hua Rong sent him to the Second Avenue. Ten miles away; and today I went down the mountain, led by brother Chao Gai, and all the brothers sent me thirty miles away, still refusing to rest. From this, at least now, I have walked on Song Gongming's In front of the black guy!"
Not a day later, he arrived at Bianliang City in Tokyo. Ximen Qing looked at the tall city walls and towering gate towers, and was filled with emotions. The last time he came, he was accompanied by the censor's close family members, and he went to follow the path of the powerful minister Cai Jing. Today, this time, there are two sun and moon swords on his back. The blade of the sword has not seen blood for a long time. Ximen Qing can sense the buzzing sound in it that is eager to be unsheathed.
Taking a deep breath, Ximen Qing looked into the depths of Bianliang City and softly spoke from between his teeth - "Chen Jingjing, I, Ximen Qing, am here to take your head!"
After entering the city, Ximen Qing found an inn to rest at random. The certificates listed in his hand were all presented by the government at the foot of Liangshan Mountain. The monogram and official seal were all authentic. How could anyone doubt the identity of this scholar who sold divination? He had lived there for two years. On the three days, Ximen Qing either invited guests to drink, or gave some fruits to the neighborhood children to eat, and quietly spread the poems.
Things went wrong in one place, then moved to another, and within a few days, the words Ximen Qing made up made children sing everywhere in the city of Tokyo, and Ximen Qing finally arrived outside the home of Chen Hong and Chen Dakuan, the former instructors of the Forbidden Army.
In the previous conflict between the Forbidden Army and Xixia, the Forbidden Army suffered a great loss, many people died, and the dignity of the Celestial Empire was damaged. The officials were furious and pursued the case. The big and small officials fought against each other and finally got it. On the head of Chen Hong and Chen Dakuan.
In the city of Tokyo, Chen Hong is a famous sponge cake instructor. Just because the sponge cake he made pleased the mouth of the traitorous minister Yang Jian, Yang Jian promoted him and rewarded him with a future as a coach of the Forbidden Army. Except for Yang Jian, Chen Hong has no foundation. When Yang Jian doesn't protect him, he is like the sponge cake he made. With a slight poke, there is a hole.
In the rage of Tianwei, Chen Hong and the few unlucky people involved in the case were all taken to the sky prison. All the money accumulated by the eunuchs over the years was stuffed into the pockets of the wolves and tigers in the sky prison. When the family property basins were all clean, good news suddenly came. Xixia sent people to sue for peace again!
The officials at that time were very happy with their achievements. As soon as they heard that Xixia had softened their stature and came to worship and beg for peace, they became elated. Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, Tong Guan and Yang Jian all knew each other, so they wrote a letter at this time He interceded for Yang Jian, saying that although Yang Jian had a small defeat in the previous battle, the incident occurred suddenly and was only a local friction between the patrol sergeants on both sides, not a real confrontation between the two armies. If the officials who failed to pay attention were severely punished, it would be in the name of the Lord's sage and wisdom. , Just as the sun creates a shadow, and the jade creates a halo, the history books of later generations may only have some shortcomings.
The emperor was fatuous. Seeing that his pillar ministers Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, and Tong Guan all came to recommend Yang Jian, he felt that the warning he had given Yang Jian the day before was enough, not to mention that Yang Jian was no longer around these days. I felt that something was missing. For example, one day, when Zhao Guan's family was panting on Li Shishi's bed, he suddenly remembered that he wanted to use a wonderful thing, so he called out: "Yang Qing!" but no one answered outside the room. At this time, Zhao Guan's family Then I remembered that Yang Jian was being ordered by him to stay at home and think about his mistakes!
Therefore, Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, and Tong Guanyi begged for mercy, and Zhao Guanjia was convinced, but he still gave in half-heartedly. Just like he painted, he played with as many colors as possible, made many pictures, and painted on his face.
Zhangpi, to show
His wise and decisive demeanor as a king was enough to convince the officials. Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, Tong Guan and others knew his intentions and accompanied him back and forth for several rounds.
Yang Jian was released.
After Yang Jian came out, he cried bitterly in front of Zhao Guan's family, and kept saying that he was unworthy of the emperor's favor. The soft-hearted Zhao Guan's family immediately softened their hearts, and said warmly: "Yang Qing, I know that you are loyal and honest, but you are just a subordinate."
It's because people don't do things well that they make mistakes. That's why I'm going to punish you. I only hope that you will be more knowledgeable about people in the future!"
When Yang Jian was kowtowing like garlic, Zhao Guan's family finally couldn't help it anymore: "In that case, the Xixia envoys were held at a banquet in Yanfu Palace today, so Yang Qing took the enshrined objects and followed me to 'there'! Huh? But
Do you understand?"
It was only at this moment that Yang Jian's heart was truly and completely put back into his stomach. While he loudly agreed to "Thank you, Lord, for your kindness," he concealed the obscene and sticky smile on his face.
Now that the jackals have been released, what does it matter whether the foxes are beaten or not? As soon as Yang Jian pursed his lips, the prison door opened wide and a few unlucky guys were let out.
Others can say that if the official is restored to his original position, he will wait for the punishment of his crime and meritorious service in the future. With Yang Jian's care, the meritorious service will be done sooner or later. Only Chen Hong is the most unlucky. His reputation as a cake coach is known even to the mediocre Zhao Guan family.
By the way, Zhao Guan’s family has beautiful women’s sponge cakes to eat, so why are they so greedy for his local craftsmanship? Besides, if the imperial army fails, someone must take the blame. Now that it’s done, let Chen Hong, the sponge cake master, take the blame!
Therefore, Chen Hong could be exempted from the death penalty but could not escape the living crime. He was stripped of his official position and even his home was ransacked - but not much money and money were found in the house search, because the money and water were all squeezed into the pockets of the district-level prison guards.
——Yang Jian is still a bit fishy, I'm afraid Chen Hong's ending will be too bad
, which chilled the hearts of his subordinates, so he sent someone to pass a message to the Ministry of Punishments, extending Chen Hong's release date. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he also took advantage of the opportunity when Zhao Guan's family was having the most fun, and asked for a pardon from Li Shishi's bedside.
The book saves Chen Hong from the pain of getting married. This ending can be said to be a happy one for everyone.
But the most unlucky Chen Hong still couldn't be happy. But it wasn't that he regretted his official position as a Songcake coach, nor was he reluctant to part with the family fortune that had been scattered all over the place, but what happened to his son Chen Jingjing was enough to make any father
My heart is like a knife.
His precious son, Chen Jingjing, relied on the power of his father, Song Gao, as a coach, and used Yang Jian's banner as a tiger skin. He hung around in the flower streets and willow alleys all day long. Now that he has formed a habit, how can he restrain himself?
Can he live in it? It was fine when the family was wealthy, but now that the family has declined, the young man couldn't bear the hardship and caused a disaster. This is exactly:
Since ancient times, all the troubles in the country have come from above, and the family has never been ruined because of poverty. But I don’t know what happened to Chen Jiji, and I’ll explain it next time.
