"Go slowly, my lord."
Zhao Liben lifted the front of the official robe, stepped over the threshold of more than four inches, tilted his shoulders outward, and respectfully retreated to the bottom of the steps.
While speaking, his eyes fell on Sun Shaozong's red robe, and his eyes flashed with envy and jealousy. Last year, he and Sun Shaozong were still on an equal footing. Who would have thought that it was only half a year, and the two were separated. Dao 'Zhu Zi Tian Mo'
However, just as the jealous emotion surfaced in his heart, Zhao Liben suppressed it abruptly.
Now it's not as bad as before, Sun Shaozong and Jia Yuran are on the same page, and if I really want to clean up his unsuccessful general sentence, I'm afraid it's just a matter of one sentence!
Thinking of this, Zhao Liben's waist became a little softer, until he watched Sun Shaozong's back disappear into the aisle on the west side of the household registration office, then he let out a sigh of relief, put on a full-faced official, and turned around and scolded: "You After all, what was wrong, and it actually attracted the adults of Zhizhong to investigate in person?!"
"Master's insight!"
The two little officials in charge of the registration of the household registration hurriedly called out to Qu: "The little people have always been loyal to their duties, why ever..."
"Humph!"
Zhao Liben didn't bother to listen to this excuse, he tossed his sleeves, and sneered: "Master Zhizhong is very capable of discerning Qiuhao, who in this manor does not know? If there is anything wrong, there is no need for this official to attack - you two should do it for yourself. Bar!"
As he said that, he tossed his sleeves, and walked slowly and steadily, leaving only two confused and frightened little officials, who were speechless in front of the door.
However, Sun Shaozong, who left first, walked to the end of the passage and looked back at the household registration office hidden by the maple leaves.
Although he didn't have high expectations at first, he was still disappointed when he turned around in this leaky household registration office.
A remote courtyard; a roof with a distance and a drop of less than one meter from the wall; a transom that allows people to easily get in; a door lock that is rusted and opened with a poke...
That's all, but I also met a little official with a clean obsession!
Trying to find any clues from it is simply a fool's dream.
No choice, Sun Shaozong could only resort to the last trick-the whole process was cold and mysterious, trying to deceive some flaws.
However, looking at the reaction of the two household registration office officials, it is unlikely that they will be robbed and guarded, and now they can only hope that after the news spreads, the spy is afraid of his past achievements, and he shows his fault in panic.
Thinking like this, he strode to the Xing Ming Division.
Originally, I wanted to tell Zhao Wuwei to find a few trustworthy people, and secretly keep an eye on the situation in the house—Since Zhao Wuwei is an undercover spy of the Beizhen Fusi Division, he must have undergone multiple investigations, and should not have anything to do with the White Lotus Sect.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the door of the main room, he saw Jia Yucun sitting firmly on the top of the Taishi chair.
As soon as Sun Shaozong entered the door, he smiled and got up and said, "Brother is back."
Listening to this, it should have been a while.
Eighty percent of the time, he got the pass when he first arrived at the yamen.
Sun Shaozong's heart couldn't help but move, if nothing else, the old fox should have guessed what secret he was secretly investigating, otherwise he wouldn't have known that he went to Zhao Liben's place, and would have come to wait for the criminal justice department.
But he acted like this, obviously not wanting to get involved.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong seemed to have nothing to do, and asked with a smile: "Brother is here for a long time, isn't he going to give me any trouble again? Let's talk about it first, but I can go to the prince's place to hide at any time. of."
Jia Yucun looked bitter, but said helplessly: "It's not my brother, I deliberately put a burden on you, it's really forced by the situation - now, see for yourself!"
With that said, he turned around and took out this memorial from the coffee table, and presented it in front of Sun Shaozong.
Sun Shaozong was not in a hurry to see it. He asked Jia Yucun to take his seat again, and then he took a seat behind Sun Chengye's usual koan, and spread out the memorial for a closer look.
But I saw that on the head, the words in Like's work were written impressively.
Sun Shaozong was stunned for a moment without realizing it. The officials in charge of supervising the six departments and hundreds of departments were collectively referred to as the six departments. They also combined with the Metropolitan Court of Justice. Although they were only a mere seventh-rank, they came out. The name is expensive and difficult to deal with.
However, in this special supervision of the Ministry of Rites, the memorial that was presented, how could it fall into the hands of Jia Yucun
Continuing to look down full of suspicion, Sun Shaozong couldn't help crying and laughing. This memorial of emotion is to impeach Shuntian's ineffective education, which has led to the rise of popular rumors among the people, and the endless rumors of lewdness...
The official said with particular indignation that women in Beijing were wearing more and more unsightly clothes—in summer, they dared to bare their chests and arms in the street!
The bare-chested and bare-arms here are exaggerated, but the people of Dazhou have admired Tang style in recent years, and their clothing has become more and more open.
But it's not yet to the point of purging the atmosphere, right
Sun Shaozong turned it over and over, read the memorial three times, and finally said inexplicably: "The elders of the pavilion passed this memorial to us, what do you mean? It's almost September, so what else is there on the street? A woman with bare arms?"
Jia Yucun sighed, and answered nonchalantly, "Brother, can you read the newspaper from the previous two days?"
The Di newspapers two days ago
Sun Shaozong became more and more confused, and the news in the newspaper didn't seem to be at odds with the atmosphere of the capital, right
Seeing that Sun Shaozong was puzzled, Jia Yucun sighed again and said, "I'm afraid there will be chaos in the southwest."
Southwest is going to be chaotic, what does it have to do with the atmosphere of the capital
Could it be that the Wuxi barbarians and the six countries in the southern border heard that women in the capital like to bare their chests and bare their arms, so they were enemies of the imperial court
Just kidding, those barbarians seem to wear less clothes, okay
"Brother, don't play dumb riddles."
Sun Shaozong stood up and bowed to the end: "Hurry up and tell me what's going on here."
"Ugh."
Jia Yucun was still sighing, shaking his head and said, "My brother is a general, I'll take it as you know it - this southwest is really going to be in chaos, shouldn't you send a large army to fight the rebellion? To send troops to fight the rebellion, you have to raise military supplies, right? ?"
What's up with raising military supplies and the spirit of the capital...
and many more!
Is it...
Sun Shaozong was stunned and said: "Is the military supply that brother refers to, is it a camp prostitute?!"
Seeing Jia Yucun nodded silently, Sun Shaozong's face suddenly gloomy.
This camp of prostitutes refers to prostitutes with officers. In peacetime, there are brothel brothels in the local area, which can basically meet the physical needs of soldiers, so only a few frontier military towns have equipment.
In wartime, the imperial court would often temporarily 'deploy' a batch to serve in front of the army. Victory would be used as a reward, and stalemate would be used to boost morale. If the battle was defeated—it would be good to not be punished, so there are still women to sleep in
Because the number of court officials and prostitutes is not very large, and it is impossible for the imperial court to force good prostitutes into prostitutes, so every time at this time, private prostitutes, half-closed doors, and even brothel brothels with insufficient formalities and insufficient background, will become prostitutes. Ushered in a wave of anti-pornography.
Obviously, this memorial is an oath to fight against pornography and non-violence. First, it seems that the court is famous for being a teacher; secondly, those who are related will hear the rumors and attack the official government in advance, so as not to be 'accidentally injured' by the court.
However, even if the other party was originally a woman who had lost his footing, Sun Shaozong's heart was still a little unacceptable for such a method of openly recruiting camp prostitutes.
"Brother."
Just listened to Jia Yucun: "I'm afraid that this matter will require the troops of the five cities to contribute, so..."
Sun Shaozong suddenly interrupted him and asked back, "Have you ever heard, Lord Fu Cheng, that I recently had a feud with Prince Zhongshun?"
"Is there such a thing?!"
Jia Yucun's eyes widened, and he twitched his beard subconsciously and said, "King Zhongshun has always loved Brother Chongxian, so why did he suddenly have a quarrel?"
Although he was a question, he obviously didn't want to know the answer and details.
Sun Shaozong didn't plan to tell him, he just spread his hands and said helplessly: "So I'm afraid I'll have to take shelter of His Royal Highness for the time being. The truth is that this government office is..."
This is naturally a pretext. The prince has a lot of trust in him now. Even if he officially quits the task force, he will still come forward to protect him.
Jia Yucun's brows furrowed even tighter, he slowly got up, and solemnly cupped his hands and said: "My wise brother is ten times more intelligent than me, I must have a plan in my heart, and I won't make any more noise, in short, I will take care of everything in the yamen. You don't need to worry too much about your brother."
These words sounded open and bright, but they did not mean to help at all.
However, Sun Shaozong didn't expect him to share weal and woe with him at all, as long as he didn't force himself to collect 'military supplies', it was enough.
There are two flowers, one on each side.
But he said that while Sun Shaozong was shirking his errands, as soon as he was in the mansion in the west of the city, the male master came to the backyard full of joy, and there was still a distance from the main room, so he couldn't help shouting loudly: "Miss, madam, things have been settled! Soon to be…”
One foot in the door and one foot out the door, the male host's excited voice suddenly stopped abruptly, as if someone grabbed his throat, and after a long while, he squeezed out a few words dryly: "Mother, why are you here?"
But it turned out that in the small hall of the main room, in addition to the young and beautiful hostess, there was also a middle-aged woman with bright temples.
The woman put the tea bowl in her hand on the table and asked coldly, "Why, you can't come here for your mother?"
"How, how!"
The male host hurriedly laughed and said, "My boy means, it's time for Xiuyun and I to go to greet you, how dare I bother you..."
"Kneel down!"
Before he could finish speaking, the woman suddenly gave a stern scolding.
The hostess trembled, and immediately fell to his knees without hesitation, and walked a few steps to his mother.
The woman didn't even look at her son, she softened her voice a little, and then ordered: "Xiuyun, you go down first, my mother has something to explain to him."
The young woman named Xiuyun glanced at her husband in embarrassment, and cautiously advised: "It's okay for mother to punish him, just don't get angry."
"It's okay."
The woman waved her hand: "I just can't see him being so complacent. He has some family lessons to be explained to him."
Then the young woman said a thousand blessings, put her hands on her lower abdomen, bowed her body and stepped back, and closed the door with her backhand.
When she heard the sound of footsteps outside, the woman jumped up from the chair suddenly, her thin arms supported the armrests, and the blue veins were exposed below the straight elbows.
Her originally kind facial features were suddenly twisted and ferocious, and the voice thrown from her trembling lips was as cold as an ice knife: "Do you remember, how did your father die?!"
As if conditioned, the hostess blurted out: "On the seventh day of the 12th lunar month in the 31st year of Jianping, he was killed by the false imperial thief Prince Teng, and his body was hung in the south gate of Pingliang, and it did not rot for seventeen days! It was burned by the thieves, and there is no bones left!"
"Do you remember, you still remember?!"
The woman slapped her son in the face with a violent slap. Before the man could do anything, she swayed and almost fell to the ground—but it turned out that the woman had a lame leg.
The man hurriedly helped her back to the chair, but the woman pushed her away desperately, yelling, "You unfilial son, don't touch me!"
"Mother! I..."
"Don't call my mother, I can't stand it!"
The middle-aged woman shouted loudly, and the man hurriedly knelt on the ground again, grabbed the ground with his head, and said, "My son is not filial, please calm your anger."
"Quiet your anger?"
The middle-aged woman sneered: "Since you still remember how your father died, how could you be so happy that you almost get carried away because of the mere benefits given by this pseudo dynasty?!"
"Isn't the child..."
"If you still remember that the hatred of killing your father is not shared by the sky, why do you push three obstacles and four, and refuse to work with the people sent by King Ming to find the reincarnated saintess?!"
"mother!"
"If you..."
"mother!"
The man finally couldn't bear it anymore, raised his head angrily, and said, "No matter what Mrs. Li is telling the truth, my son has a clear conscience! I've already helped whatever they asked for, but I have to take care of it. With their unscrupulous chaos, sooner or later, they will be discovered by the court... and discovered by the pseudo-chao, which will lead to the destruction of the family!"
"Are you afraid? Are you dying?!"
The old woman widened her eyes and said angrily, "When your father sacrificed his life for Prince Ming, why did he ever care about life and death? You... You are really a son of my Su family and a disciple of Maitreya!"
"It's true that I'm a disciple of Maitreya!"
The man also gave it his life, raised his head and said, "But Xiuyun is not, let alone the child in her womb! Even if I want to give up my life for Maitreya, I have to wait until she is safely sent away!"
Hearing the 'child in the womb', the middle-aged woman couldn't help but show some struggle on her face, she hesitated for a while: "But Master Li said that now the puppet dynasty is worried about internal and external troubles, it is a golden opportunity, if you can't Find the saint as soon as possible and think about it later..."
"mother!"
This time, the man was planning to be his mother, so he said dissatisfiedly: "If the saint can be found, why wouldn't the girl not help? But they... But they are clearly messing around, knowing that they died in the house arrest of the government office. It's a baby boy, but he has to provoke the Rongguo government!"
"Master Li said that the nun also took a baby girl..."
"But that was born a few months ago!"
The man became more and more annoyed, gritted his teeth and said, "In my opinion, they don't even know whether the reincarnated saint was born or not, and how old they are now!"
"Two days ago, I was still thinking about the Prince's Mansion, saying that since the Li family broke the 'dragon vein' of the puppet dynasty, maybe it was the reincarnated saint!"
The middle-aged woman finally hesitated, and hesitantly said, "Then you..."
"Mother, don't worry about it. I will find time to discuss with Mrs. Li Haosheng. We have finally stood our ground in the capital, and we must not let those stunned youths from the northwest continue to mess around!"
