Xie Ying decided the case very quickly, and the emperor made a straight decision. Finally, in October, before the birthday festival, the big case of changing the imperial documents to the private servants was settled.

Qingliu celebrities from various ministries and academies in the DPRK and the central government worked together to prepare a banquet in a restaurant to celebrate Li, Liu, and Yang Sanping's release from prison. At the banquet, the cups were handed over, and everyone's happy events took the lead. Gradually, they drank more, and they couldn't hold the air of a serious and sensible minister. It was inevitable to discuss who knew Xie Ying with insight.

Yang Tinghe Qianchong, who was praised as Li Chunfeng and Liu Bowen's reincarnation, said: "Actually, before the existence of this hospital, Fu Envoy Xie Zhen had taken the initiative to prepare a copy and asked him to lead the inspection team to sweep away the evil young and murderous people in Beijing, and broke a lot of old age. The old case. That "Wang Yaoniang Pipa Ji" wrote about the case he had done before, and it was not a foresight... It's just that Xie Zhenfu was a pearl hidden in the box at that time, showing its brilliance. The quality of Yingying is gone."

Yes, they only thought that Xie Ying was a rare and sincere person in Jinyiwei at the time, but they didn't expect him to be such a benevolent gentleman.

One of the protagonists of this banquet, the teacher of the original editor and original author of "The Legend of Pipa", also humbly said on behalf of the disciples: "What Jiefu said is very true, and the person who came up with "The Legend of the Pipa" is just a After listening to the cases he handled in the past, he did it according to the facts. How can it be as miraculous as the rumors from outside... "

Liu Yushi, who had been in prison for a few days and experienced the special care of the prison, said with a smile: "I think there is something mysterious in this matter. When Xie Zhenfu was promoted, he could not have said that "Pipa" The credit of "Record" - if it weren't for Ziyin's drama today, he would still be in the Thousand Houses Office, and it would be difficult to control the Zhenfu Division. The two adults may have been murdered by eunuchs long ago!"

The twists and turns of that drama turned out to save their lives.

Asked Liu Zanyi to analyze it, Li Dongyang couldn't help but think about the reincarnation of cause and effect - his relationship with Xie Ying didn't just start from writing that play

Earlier, he and his junior brother Yang Yiqing went to the Cui family to celebrate their birthday. They were almost injured by a murderer on the way, and it was Xie Ying who saved them. Later, at the Cui Family Birthday Banquet, they sighed that the capital was uneasy, and Xie Ying made a decision on the spot to pacify the chaos in the capital. And because his disciple listened to the rumors outside, he asked him to search for people in the Hanlin Academy, and finally found Yang Tinghe and wrote it down...

Thinking about it this way, it was the original thought that saved him and his two virtuous brothers, Yang and Liu.

Eh? It doesn't seem right. It was his disciple who first wanted to write the Yuanben, and this good relationship was formed. And Cui Xie and Xie Ying got together even earlier...

Li Xueshi was pondering the theory of the cause and effect of the Shi family, when Fei Siye, the Imperial Supervisor, sighed and pulled him back to the world: "According to what Brother Liu Xian said, we should invite those talented people who wrote "Wang Yaoniang Pipa Ji" to drink three titles together. It's a pity that they only wrote one play and stopped writing, and they don't know who is behind the pseudonyms such as the master of the stone room and Mr. Shuixi."

The expressions of Han Lin who were writing the play changed subtly, either bowing their heads to drink, or chatting together, pretending not to know about it.

The two bachelors Xu Pu and Liu Jian who did not participate in the play looked at their proud and desperately concealed expressions, laughed lightly, and explained for them: "Xie Zhenfu was not famous at that time, and those talented people were willing to write plays for him, After he was promoted, he didn't show up, so he must be someone who doesn't seek fame and fortune. We also understand the meaning of these talents, and we don't have to force them to come out. "

The editor-in-chief Yang Caizi echoed, and the editor-in-chief Li Caizi nodded slightly.

The two censors, Liu and Yang, were quite unwilling. Yang Yingning made good friends with Li Dongyang, and quietly patted him under the table: "Isn't Brother Xi Ya always fond of supporting the younger generation's talents? Why don't you mention these few people who have the grace to save me?"

Guozi Xueqiu took a sip of the wine, wiped the corners of his mouth, and looked at the Hanlin with a smile: "Even if the Hanlin Academy does not lack a few talents to help, Qiu is also willing to accept such a student to teach. I was in the school before. Hutong has seen "The Pipa Story of Wang Mianniang", and scrutinized the subtleties of its words and phrases. It is not inferior to the previous "Zhao Wuniang Pipa Story". In the brothel, Wang Miaoniang sang the phrase, "Trusted with nine layers of rain and dew, two rounds of sun and moon light, this Yinghua, the leader of the fence, is alone in Qiankun, and there are 10,000 Liangyuan gardens that cannot be reached.'

Yang Tinghe coughed lightly, interrupted his unfinished words, and said calmly: "The gifted poet, Sijun's gratitude is naturally the same."

Qiu Jun smiled without saying a word, turned around and went back to Fei Siye, who was beside him, and said to several Jing Qing: "This time, Li Xueshi and the two imperial censors can return safely from the prison, which is better than what was written in the "Pipa" The case is even more thrilling and twists and turns countless times. Those talented people heard about this and will definitely make a script again, we just have to wait and see."

Everyone nodded with a smile: "This kind of important event, not only those talents who use pseudonyms, how can anyone in the world not sing it?" Although it can't be arranged in a play and staged immediately, there will definitely be someone who takes the name of the previous dynasty and writes an article in a veiled manner. , The playbook, gradually spread around and staged.

After the banquet, all the Hanlins had to sit for work as usual. For example, Wang Hua and Xie Qian, who had nothing to do, asked Yang Tinghe if he would like to write another book.

Yang Tinghe pushed them away, resolutely not agreeing: "Don't hurt me! Master Qiu has clearly recognized me, wouldn't I make him laugh if I did it again? Besides, I was able to write the discharge note last time because of my brother Li's beloved disciple. This sketch is really good-looking, I only got the idea after seeing him..."

He pointed at Li Dongyang: "You persuade Li Xueshi first and then persuade me!"

Li Dongyang shook his head with a smile: "It won't work, it won't work, that picture will take a lot of effort. My good disciple will have to try again next year. I'm afraid he will be tired."

Li Xueshi stayed in prison for several days, but Cui Xie took care of his family. His father and son were worried that he would get sick. He also invited a famous doctor to treat him, and somehow he asked Jinyiwei to calm him down...

The three of them were eating and drinking in prison, but this student had lost a lot of weight, and the flesh on his cheeks was gone. He was really reluctant to make Cui Xie work again.

He didn't want to send students, but Xiuzhuan Zhang Pu said: "We didn't ask Cui Xie to draw pictures right away, how could we be tired of him? He will be off in February next year, after February 15th - at most after March Fifteen, don't you have time? You don't need Li Xueshi's promise at that time, I'm also his house teacher, I'll go to him... "

He personally took Cui Xie on the list during the township exam, but unfortunately he never had the chance to meet after the Luming banquet. This time, there was a rare excuse, and he should have called Cui Xie over to meet him.

It's better to choose the sun than hit the sun, and don't wait for February and March, so what if you just ask Cui Xie to come to the Hanlin Academy

He supported the table, stood up and asked Li Dongyang: "When will he come back from Guozijian, why not send someone to call him to Li's house, let's go to Li's house to have some fun, and ask him about it in person by the way?"

Li Dongyang said helplessly: "I have only accepted such a good disciple, you are coming to grab me. He is busy with his studies, and you teachers don't know how to teach him something useful, so you urge scholars to make these playful things. "

Zhang Pu said with a smile: "How can this be considered as a plaything? Without his original copy of "Wang Yaoniang's Pipa Ji", how could Yang Cuizhen write it into a courtyard book? Without this courtyard book, how could Xie Zhenfu become the Zhenfu envoy? In a major case, take down Liang Fang and Wei Xing, the two eunuchs who brought harm to the country and the people? How could the three of them return from the imperial prison safely?"

The more he said, the brighter his eyes became, and he couldn't help boasting proudly at the end: "It's still me who has a good eye for talent, and I recognized Hezhong's exam paper at a glance!"

Liang Chu, who was the invigilator in the same room with him, shook his head behind his back, and took out his identity as a room teacher to speak: "I should have taken him to the banquet yesterday, but unfortunately he has to go to school and can't go. After school, let's bring some food and drink to Li Xueshi's house to congratulate him. I'll ask someone to wait for him at Guozijian, and ask him to come to Li's house to celebrate at night."

In the evening, I just happened to tell him about the new play "Xie Zhen Fuyi Saves the Three Dukes".

Li Dongyang couldn't stop them either, so he had to go with them.

When it was time to leave, the hearts of the Hanlin Academy were dissipated, and they all packed up and prepared to go for a drink, but they didn't want to go out. Suddenly, an eunuch sent an order, ordering Li Dongyang to enter the palace immediately.

Everyone couldn't help but think of the imperial prison again, and Li Dongyang's face darkened a bit. He calmed down and asked, "I don't know why the sage called the ministers into the palace, why? Could it be that the case has been repeated again?"

The little eunuch said with a smile: "That's an appointed case, how could there be any repetitions? Master Li just follows me into the palace, it's the emperor who has a mission to hand over to Master Li - it's the emperor who got a good painting to congratulate Shengshou, said Li The great human beings are rich in color, and can write a good speech that is worthy of a good painting."

He boasted of the beauty of the painting for offering his birthday, and said, "Long live the painting, I admired it a long time ago, I like it very much, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with the painting! And now the evil in the palace has been eliminated, and Liang and Wei Dangyu are all there. Who dares to frame the minister at this time!"

Only then did everyone make up their minds, and they all persuaded Li Dongyang to go over and write an inscription, and they would prepare the evening banquet at Li's house.

Li Dongyang left half-doubtedly. The Hanlins packed up their things, rode their own horses, donkeys, or limousines to go out. Arrive at Li's house in a mighty way.

The concierge of the Li family came out to greet him and looked at the Hanlin, but there was no master of his own, and he thought that he had been caught in prison, his legs went weak with fright, and he asked with a little weeping voice: "I dare to ask you all, where is my bachelor? ?"

Liu Jian, a student in attendance, first comforted: "Li Xueshi taught the sage to call the palace to inscribe the painting, and he will come in a while. You first ask people to prepare tables, chairs, cups and plates, arrange a banquet, and wait for your family to return."

They first went to visit Li Dongyang's father and stepmother. The fourth master of the Li family brought his nephew out to entertain them. The whole family was astonished.

Several Hanlins have repeatedly assured that he is just going to inscribe a painting, and now Xie Zhenfu has been ordered to clean up the palace, and no one will dare to frame him again.

After finally persuading everyone in the Li family, Xie Qian said with emotion: "I never imagined that one day we would be willing to praise Jin Yiwei."

Liu Jian said with a smile: "When you discussed writing the academy book just now, weren't you willing?"

Everyone looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

Cui Xie asked someone to take him to Li's house, and when he entered the hall, he saw a group of bachelors sitting there. The future cabinet bachelors smiled at him when they saw him entering the door, and greeted him: "Hezhong, come and sit here."

Cui Xie was a little dizzy with happiness, and hurriedly stepped forward and gave a round bow, seeing all the adults. When he saw the ceremony, he also found that Li Dongyang was not there, and his eyes swept around, Zhang Fangshi took the initiative to explain: "Li Xueshi called the palace people to call..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Cui Xie's expression dignified and his body tense, as if he was about to run out to beat Deng Wen's drum, and quickly held his cold hand to comfort him: "The Holy One has got a new birthday picture, because Li It is not a bad thing to invite Li Xueshi to enter the palace to inscribe paintings.”

It turned out to be just a painting, fortunately fortunately.

Cui Xie let out his chest and was about to give them a smile when he suddenly remembered that what Li Dongyang had inscribed was the picture of He Shou, and the smile condensed in the corner of his mouth—the picture to be inscribed was not drawn by him. The fairy congratulations picture, right

Will there be other congratulatory pictures like his, with the year, month, date, and a stamp

Cui Xie laughed too stiffly, it would be better not to smile. Several Hanlin couldn't bear to watch, so Zhang Fangshi couldn't help but patted the back of his hand, and gently persuaded: "Your teacher really has serious errands to do, no one will frame him anymore, it is, Beizhen Fu With a decent gentleman like Xie Zhenfu in the Secretary, he can prove his innocence again."

He sincerely praised Xie Ying many times this night, and the praise became more and more smooth.

Seeing that Cui Xie's eyes were gradually brightening and the person was not so stiff, he felt that he was comforted, and looked at him and nodded with a smile: "Xie Zhenfu made justice to save Li Xueshi and the two censors. It's a legend, we also discussed asking Yang to review and write another play for him. If Xie Zhenfu becomes more famous in the future, he will be a kind of thing and a commander, and a righteous person who can be protected by him will also be a righteous person. more."

exactly!

Cui Xie's eyes were filled with candlelight, his smile widened, and he nodded again and again: "The student thinks the same way. This case is strange because Xie Zhenfu, as a guard in brocade clothes, joined me and other scholars, enforced the law impartially, and kept the court. Zhongjunzi, and the two eunuchs Liang Fang and Wei Xing were found guilty of embezzling money and perverting the law... This matter should be spread aside more than other investigation stories, so that the people can know Xie... How the current imperial court is upright and upright."

This story can't be written as a political affair, but he had already set the background when he started the comics of Jinyiwei Da: it was changed in the Kaiyuan year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, and the harem Yang Guifei and Gao Lishi were favored, and Yang Guifei also had a scourge of the common people. , brother Yang Guozhong, who is greedy for property...

Naturally, the two Uncle Wan Guozhong can't be as bad as Yang Guozhong, but they are not good people, so it's okay.

Teacher Li Dongyang is Li Bai who was framed and imprisoned by them for writing poetry. Both of them are surnamed Li, they are both Hanlin, and they are both literary sect masters. In this way, Teacher Li is simply the reincarnation of Li Bai! This identity is too suitable for him to substitute!
