Fu Qiuning nodded and said: "I see, that's right. The last time I said that there was Prince Lie's spy in the house, have you caught him?" After saying that, Jin Fengju shook his head and said solemnly: "I have asked Jin Ming to test it overtly and covertly. We have been searching for people for a long time, but until today, there has been no word. This is really strange. I have never encountered anything like this before, which shows how well the spy hides it. But it’s nothing. Even if he is a spy, we act honestly and openly, so we are not afraid. If you have something to give him, don't worry, go to bed quickly, I have to get up early tomorrow morning, but I have to ask Grandma to get up and serve you."

Fu Qiuning couldn't help but laugh, shook his head and said: "Why is it that I am becoming more and more glib now? He was clearly mature and prudent in the past."

Jin Fengju smiled and said, "Isn't that bad? I'm only in my twenties. My ancestors and my wife usually say that I'm too old, but what if I'm not mature? Isn't it a place where it's easy to get mixed up in the court? On the contrary, from He He After you got together, I felt like I had regained a bit of my youthful nature, which is good. Even when I was a teenager, I never felt so happy from the bottom of my heart."

Fu Qiuning stood up and blew out the candlelight. The faint moonlight shone dimly through the window paper. She looked at Jin Fengju's handsome face enveloped by the moonlight and sighed softly in her heart. She secretly thought that she was in a high position and responded to everything. It seemed like a beautiful scenery. Infinite, who knows that there are all kinds of difficulties and dangers hidden here, so I couldn't help but chanted slowly: "If you don't see the white waves in the sky, there will be no danger. I am afraid that the boat will be late when I close my pole. The world is suffering from endless troubles. I am defeated by the Yuanhu fisherman who knows it." "

Jin Fengju murmured it twice, his eyes twinkling with light. He stared at Fu Qiuning and said, "This is really a wise saying. It's hard for Qiu Ning to have such insight. Is Yuanhu Lake the Yuanyang Lake in Jinzhou? These four sentences are like a conclusion, and they should be more There is a way forward, why doesn't Qiu Ning tell the whole story?"

Fu Qiuning choked, and was so angry that he wished he could give himself a mouthful. He thought it was shameless, it was really shameless, it was just stealing the show, but you actually stole the poem, Fu Qiuning, Fu Qiuning, you are so shameless, what should I do? I forgot that this bastard is Tanhua. He must be accomplished in poetry. Just from this sentence, he actually knows that there are poems ahead. This is terrible. Are you going to recite Yuanhu Qu to him? Oh, bah, do you want to continue to be a literary thief? But if you say you don't remember, I don't know if this bastard will believe it or not. After all, you are known as a talented woman.

Because he was distressed, he heard that Jin Fengju was still asking questions. Qiu Ning had no choice but to say: "When I was a child in the village, I heard a servant reciting a long string. I was not very old at that time. How could I remember it? I felt that this was the last sentence. The four sentences are quite interesting, so I keep them in my mind to this day."

Jin Fengju looked at her with gleaming eyes, as if he already knew that she was making excuses, but he didn't expose it. He just smiled and said: "I just found out today that the rural village where Qiuning lives is actually full of talented people. I'm afraid you don't have such a well-educated scholar in your palace yet. When you have some free time, why don't you take me to have a look, and maybe I can meet some great scholars who have never been recognized."

Fu Qiuning blushed, knowing that Jin Fengju had already guessed it, but at this time, of course, he could only hold on to the end, so he gave a few perfunctory words and persuaded Jin Fengju to sleep. At that time, there was also the sound of bangs outside, and it was already the second watch. Jin Fengju Thinking of getting up early to go to court, she stopped teasing Qiu Ning and went to sleep.

When he slept until midnight, he heard it raining outside. Jin Fengju opened his eyes and saw Qiu Ning also opening his eyes. He asked in a low voice: "Is it raining outside?"

"Yes." Qiu Ning replied, and then whispered: "Spring rain is as expensive as oil. There will be less rain this spring. It's just right for the next one. As the saying goes, spring rain is as expensive as oil."

Jin Fengju nodded, listened attentively to the sound of rain for a while, and said with a smile: "A few days ago, the emperor also said that there will be less rain this year, and he is afraid of a bad year. Now it sounds like it is raining quite hard. It is better now. The emperor will definitely be in a good mood tomorrow."

Fu Qiuning knew that what he was thinking about was Prince Rong's affairs, so he also smiled and said: "Yes, Your Majesty is in a good mood, and Prince Rong's sin is a little smaller. Go to sleep, it's still early before dawn." After that, Hearing Jin Fengju agree, he could see him closing his eyes in the darkness.

The weather in ancient times was really changeable. I thought the moonlight was quite nice when I went to bed, but in the blink of an eye, it started raining. Fu Qiuning was thinking randomly, and suddenly he remembered his favorite poem: "The young man is listening to the rain song upstairs, and the tent is dimly lit by red candles. The middle-aged man is listening to the rain in the boat, the river is wide and the clouds are low, and the broken geese are calling the west wind. Now listening to the rain, the monk At the foot of the house, there are stars on the temples, joys and sorrows are always ruthless, and every step of the way is dripping until dawn."

Thinking in my heart, I couldn't help but burst into tears. I secretly thought that now that I have traveled through time, I can never go back. Rather, I am not as good as that traveler. Even though the river is vast, the clouds are low, and the Duanyan west wind is so desolate, there is still a day to return home. . And me? I'm afraid that when my temples are starry, I can only let the little things in front of me go and never see the asphalt roads and concrete forests of my hometown again.

While thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel sad, and she didn't fall asleep again for the rest of the night. Because she saw the sound of bangs coming from outside again, she pushed Jin Fengju and said, "Master, I think it's time to get up. The sky is gloomy today. It’s not yet dawn, but the hour has come.”

Jin Fengju got up and asked Fu Qiuning to help her wash up. Before eating, she hurried out with an oil-paper umbrella. Fortunately, she had a glass lamp in her hand, so she wasn't afraid of getting wet and extinguished by the rain.

As he was walking in a hurry in Yongcui Garden, he suddenly saw a flash of lightning flashing across the sky, and then a heavy thunder rolled across the sky. His heart tightened, and he secretly thought that the trees here were all full of trees, and there was actually a hint of danger, so he quickened his pace because of his hurry. , but saw another bright flash of lightning in the mid-air, and then a thunder exploded, and then heard a "click", and a tree as thick as a bowl beside him was split in half by the thunder, and fell with a "bang" down.

Jin Fengju quickly flew back. Unexpectedly, he was only concentrating on avoiding the falling tree, but he did not notice that there was a sharp bamboo-like stone behind him. He accidentally tripped and fell. Despite his quick reaction, , but couldn't control the balance of his body, his calf was deeply pierced by the stalagmite, and he was bleeding profusely.

It was a thunderstorm outside. Cai Lian and Jasper were in the study, waiting anxiously. Jin Ming had been out to pick up Master Ying for some time, but he still hadn't come back. Why not worry the two maids? At this moment, there was thunder and lightning, and I had to walk through the garden again. What if something happened

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Jin Fengju appearing in the courtyard being supported by Jin Ming. The two maids felt nervous and rushed out in person, saying hurriedly: "What's going on? Master, what's going on?"

"It's okay, let the stone prick me, Cai Lian Jasper will bring me some salt water to wash the wound, and then I have to go to court." After Jin Fengju finished speaking, he didn't know where it was pulled, but it hurt so much that he said "Ouch" He shouted, so frightened that the lotus-picking jade hands trembled.

"Sir, why don't you just take a day off? Look at you like this, how can you go to court?" Jin Ming looked at the bandaged wound on Jin Fengju's calf with a grimace, and murmured: "Besides, it's just the minions who will take care of it for you. This is not appropriate either, we should call the imperial doctor to take a look."

"Where did all this nonsense come from?" Jin Fengju snorted and said to Jin Ming: "Hurry and prepare the sedan chair. Today's morning meeting, don't say that I only had one leg pierced by a stone. Even if both my legs are broken, I must I want to go. Well, the so-called way of mourning soldiers, maybe God intends to help. "

When Jin Ming heard what he said, he knew that his father had a plan, so he hurriedly agreed, went out and arranged the sedan chair, and the bearer carried it and ran away on the road. When he arrived at the court room, it was only half an hour before the morning court.

At that time, the ministers were chatting in the court room, and several princes with official positions were also here. When they saw Jin Fengju letting his servants help him in, they couldn't help but be very surprised, and they gathered around to ask why.

Jin Ming was not qualified to enter the court room, so he helped his master sit on the seat and then left. Here Prince Rong's face was stained with concern, and he asked Jin Fengju how he ended up like this? However, Prince Hong and Prince Lie's eyes flickered, with some gloating hidden in their eyes.

Jin Fengju briefly talked about his experience, and then it was time to go to court. The ministers filed into the court led by several princes. At this time, Jin Fengju's embarrassment appeared. He could only limp into the hall. Even so, he still managed to do it. Otherwise, jumping on one leg would be the most suitable way for him to walk.

The emperor sat behind the screen and took in all this. He frowned slightly. When he heard the eunuch singing "The Emperor has arrived," he walked out and sat down on the dragon chair. The eunuch beside him stood up and said loudly. : "If you have a foundation, you will play early, but if you don't have a foundation, you will retreat."

How could there be no book? Several ministers stood up one after another and reported some things. In the end, when no one came forward, a censor official came out and knelt down and said: "I would like to report to the emperor that I want to take part in the crime of lax family conduct in the Jingguo Palace." .”

Jin Fengju's heart skipped a beat and he secretly thought. On the surface, he looked extremely surprised, and suddenly looked up at the censor. He knew this person, his name was Chu Daxiu, and he was a die-hard supporter of Prince Hong's faction. It's no wonder that Prince Hong gave him this task this time. Come and do it.

"The family tradition is not strict?" The emperor frowned almost unknowingly, glanced at Jin Fengju, and then said calmly: "What is the crime of lax family tradition? Let me tell you."
