In the Xia Mansion on Qianmen East Street, guests gathered together. The lights were just on, and the stage was singing happily. The guests were cheering for cups, which was so unhappy. Recommended: The new work of the master Wangyu: "Six Traces: Nightmare Palace" http://www./0_3/Xia Yan is rarely so extravagant, and it is really a day that makes him feel so proud.

At this time, he was already drunk and his tongue was a little stiff. He could feel that he was not speaking very well, so he started to speak less, just sitting there upright, smiling, stroking his beard, or nodding to others, and his style as the chief assistant was not diminished at all.

Yang Qu and Wu Qingnan were also arranged to sit, and both of them were on the main table, but the other Qingkes could only simply eat a few glasses of water and wine in the side courtyard, which was a very different fundamentally. This shows how much Xia Yan values ​​these two people.

You must be happy when you are proud of yourself, don’t let the golden cup face the moon empty. Xia Yan has been rigorous all his life, but at this age, he has only felt the first time he felt what it felt like.

Tonight should be the happiest night he has been an official for many years.

......

The guest was drunk and the opera was singing until midnight. A servant hurriedly came from the corridor and stopped beside Xia Yan. He bowed his hands, bent his body, and whispered: "Master, someone from the corner gate is here, saying that he wants to meet the adults."

Xia Yan's first reaction when he came in from the corner gate was Gao Fu.

He nodded and said to Qu Luan who clapped his hands to answer the sound of the sound: "I'll go back."

Qu Luan bowed and smiled, "Please give me some advice."

Xia Yan stood up, feeling a little floating, shook his head, which was not very clear, and walked towards the corner gate with his hands behind his back.

Under the night, Lu Bing was wearing a black cloak and a hat on his head. This outfit was obviously unwilling to let people know his identity.

Xia Yan walked closer, straightened his back, coughed lightly, and said, "You are here."

Lu Bing raised his lips and smiled, took off his hat, pondered for a moment, raised his eyes and smiled: "The Master Ge actually came."

Xia Yan was stunned at first, then the smile on his face disappeared, he frowned slightly, and asked, "Commander Lu, why is it you?"

Lu Bing asked with a smile: "Isn't it that anyone else can be Gao Nu? Although he rushed back to the capital, he would stay in the Beizhen Fusiya Office during this period. Master, you may not be able to see him again."

Xia Yan frowned even more, bit his back teeth and asked, "What's the reason for me to be drunk? It's worth the commander of the Jinyiwei to come and arrest him in person."

Lu Bing's smile gradually dissipated, and his face turned nervous and cautious.

He said clearly, word by word: "Your Majesty is appointed to investigate Hongxiuzhao, Jin Xianxian, Gao Nu, and today's banquet. I have already reported some of the situation to Your Majesty. Master Xia is ready to deal with it."

Xia Yan didn't expect Lu Bing to say this. He looked at Lu Bing suspiciously and asked coldly: "I don't want to explain anything. Since it has become a fact, please ask Your Majesty to make a decision."

Lu Bing knew that Xia Yan had such a bad temper and did not care about him.

He said slowly: "Three years ago, I was greedy and took advantage of my position to give up a million taels of silver. Your Majesty almost had an insight. I asked the Lord to come to the Lord, and the Lord raised his hand and let me go. Today I will remind you that I only believe in it or not, and follow your wishes."

After saying this, Lu Bing raised his cloak, turned around neatly, put his hat on his head, and walked out of the corner door without a pause.

At this time, Xia Yan woke up a little. At the critical moment when Wang Ningpin and Cao Duan died, he left the inner court and moved to the West Garden, and made such a big show. How stupid it was to make such a big show.

He believed Lu Bing's words.

When Lu Bing knelt in front of him and begged him to let him go, he was unwilling to help him. Later, Lu Bing revealed his corruption and cried out the reason for his corruption, and collected 300,000 taels of silver for a while.

Although Xia Yan spoke coldly, he was actually soft-hearted. He rejected him on the surface and secretly used the 300,000 taels of silver to block the hole for him. Lu Bing did not thank him at the beginning, but remembered this kindness to this day.

Xia Yan frowned slightly, turned around and returned to the front hall to entertain guests. The moonlight enveloped the entire courtyard, and finally the guests and hosts enjoyed each other and the banquet dispersed.

He did not show any fear, but just invited Yang Qu and Wu Qingnan to the study and had a secret talk overnight.

......

Also on Qianmen East Street, there are still lanterns written by him written by him outside Yan’s mansion, and “wellness” and “serene” are hanging opposite each other.

Yan Song, who was already in his sixties, sat quietly in the study room, with the wooden window lattice half open, blew the fragrance of Yuan Jun in the room a little light. His white hair was combed meticulously, and even if the wind blew over, it was not messed up.

The incense was accompanied by the evening breeze. He put down the thick list of guests in his hand. Under the light, several distinct names were circled on the list by cinnabar and red pen.

Shen Liangcai, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, Li Dazhang, the Minister of Revenue, and Qian Shufu, the Minister of Works...

Yan Song let out a long sigh, tonight, it's so quiet.

It's already late at night.

There were more than a dozen students sitting in the desolate library in the past. Outside the window, the round moon shone on the silver light. The little birds on the trees kept squeaking, and the evening breeze blew across the tall and lush orange trees, and the green leaves that were set against the silver light were rustling.

There is a silence in the library, with only the occasional sound of turning over the pages or the tip of the brush falling on the paper.

Shen Kang flattened the pages of the book and sat upright at the table, holding a sleeve in one hand and a pen in the other, writing on plain paper.

At this time, Zhang Ge lowered his voice and asked, "How is your memorization?"

Shen Kang raised his head slightly and smiled, "It's still more than ten pages away, Brother Zhang?"

Zhang Ge laughed and said, "I'm still twenty pages away." He paused again, and then said, "You are really trying hard to compete for the first time in the court."

Shen Kang laughed muffled and said, "Even a toad can want to eat swan meat. I'm not an exaggeration to think about the head of the hospital's case, haha."

Zhang Ge smiled and shook his head, saying, "Okay, let me see how you can win the championship again."

Shen Kang raised his eyebrows and thought to himself that he probably couldn't get the head of the trial in the court, but he had to work hard to be convinced. He deeply understood that with his profound meaning, he would probably not beat Wang Lucao.

But, as he said himself, a toad still wants to eat swan meat...right.
