"Be careful! How can you, a minister, speak arbitrarily about your father?" The right counselor of the General Administration Department on duty shook his head and said: "However, someone secretly suspected and suggested that we continue to investigate. What is the situation of Supervisor Jiang from the History Department? What does he have to do with this matter?"
"It is said that it is because Supervisor Jiang himself has some unusual methods; and he happened to have an entanglement with Commander Gao Lian during the case of Le's malignant transformation;" the man explained: "After all, since then, From Chang'an to Luodu, this man was killing like crazy and never stopped for a moment."
"It's really ridiculous. It's the most ridiculous thing in the world." The right counselor on duty sneered: "So, someone who is capable and willing to contribute to the court is actually an eyesore to them? It's nothing more than justice. He was born in the middle of nowhere, so he was used as an excuse by these incompetent people!"
"The Za family has also heard some fragments about this matter. It is said that on the night of the incident, people from Wude Division and Henan Prefecture took turns staring at people in the post house." Hai Gong also laughed softly after hearing this. Said: "In the end, I listened to the bed incident intermittently all night, and was discovered at dawn, and almost got a beating..."
"In that case, let's get rid of these confusing things." The right counselor immediately waved his hand in disgust and said: "By the way, the only child of the Gao family left in the house, who kept saying yes, suddenly appeared. The night wandering god took Nai's father away. What do you think?"
"Night Wandering God? Isn't that the child who was spared by hiding in the secret room? He was so frightened?" Hai Gong couldn't help laughing when he heard the words: "Speaking of the power of Jingzhao Mansion these days, many people who claimed to have been arrested were also arrested. Is it possible that some of the lawless members of the Night Wandering God are running to the east to do evil?"
"Actually, what I care more about are those thieves who dare to break into Gaofu at night. What kind of methods and background did they use to escape the strict curfew in Luodu North City?" The right counselor pointed out: "Just a Duke Muguo who is about to fall and lose power can control it?"
At the same time, in Daningfang on the north side of Tonghuamen Street near the Imperial City, there is a quiet and deep garden in the busy city. Yu Cong, the newly appointed deputy supervisor of the Anxing Yushi Department/Li Xingyuan and the Chang'an Supervisory Department, also walked into a building named "Suannian Hall" and bowed respectfully:
"The student has met the teacher."
The one in the middle was bending over his desk, holding a tortoise-shell magnifying convex mirror, looking at the "teacher" with a giant butterfly sandwiched in a white glass plate; then he raised his head and showed him a smile, but then made a sigh. He gestured to wait a moment, but in the empty lobby behind him, there were all kinds of specimens.
After a while, this grey-haired teacher with distant eyes and extraordinary elegance led him to sit in a side hall filled with books and files; he greeted and asked him cordially: "I am taking this opportunity to fulfill my duties." , I think I’ve met the Supervisor, but I don’t know how I feel about him?”
"To tell you the truth, teacher, I only met the students a few times. I really can't tell my true nature of likes and dislikes. I can only say that they are already famous." Yu Cong, who was sitting with his legs crossed, shrugged slightly and said, "But Since the imperial court has entrusted him with the responsibility of assisting and deputizing, students should do their best to straighten things out."
"I'm using you as a courtesy, but this is too straightforward." After hearing this, the teacher couldn't help but put down the tea cup and sighed: "The imperial court has more than thousands of people, and there are also many means of monitoring and restricting all kinds of ministers. , why do we need to hook up with a beauty prospect like you who is on the top list of Enke?"
"By the way, Li Yong, Lord Yongfu is very interested in you, and he has been asking people to inquire about your whereabouts. The lieutenant in Ouchi has also come to me twice to inquire about you, and wants to know what you really think. "?" The teacher then added: "If you want to avoid entanglement, you don't actually need to change your future."
"This world is no better than in the past. The Tian family still has to pay attention to dignity after all; they will not really do things like forcing marriage." The teacher took a sip of tea and said: "If you really don't have such thoughts; Even if I reject it on your behalf, it’s okay; it’s not the first time this has happened to you anyway.”
"No, thank you for your hard work, teacher. I just have some things that I haven't figured out yet." Yu Cong bowed his hands and said respectfully: "So it still takes some time for me to calm down and reflect on myself. I won't bother the teacher." No more working hard for me. Transferring to Lixingyuan is also the path of my choice."
"That's all. Anyway, I'm a half-retired person. I only have the name of a temporary consulate, but I'm getting more and more mentally exhausted." After hearing this, the teacher waved his hand and said, "You should take care of yourself. Now the world is peaceful. It also implies chaos and confusion, and maybe the path you choose is a smooth one."
"For this reason, would you like to ask the teacher for some advice?" Yu Cong hesitated after hearing this, and then slowly said: "Student, this is not a coincidence, but an impartial heart..."
"Of course I know that you are motivated by public interest, but there is also an ingenuity behind this matter." The teacher smiled and said: "But you know that since you bid farewell to Dongge and transferred to Lixingyuan, those who are of the same age in Taigeguan now are , Seniors, they are all secretly watching you, but what do you mean?"
"Because the current beast disaster and changes are certainly a disaster for the common people, but in the eyes of some people in the court, it is also another opportunity and a way out?" The teacher then turned to him and said, "What do you want? You know, this dynasty has been at peace for more than a hundred years, and even the reigning Holy Lord has been around for seven generations."
"However, although the general trend of overseas expansion is still going on, it is not as good as before. There are no decent enemies on all four sides." The teacher continued to think about himself: "Therefore, in addition to the step-by-step seniority, the Apart from the transfer of honors, there are not many smooth paths to making achievements."
"The official career of my generation who came from the liberal arts class can be based on talent and learning step by step, and then through the test of merit in governing the people, accumulating seniority and finally entering the court with a distinguished head. However, the seniority order of those in the martial arts class in the court Your background as a scholar comes from your simple career in the army, so why should you pursue fame and fame?"
"So! This endless chaos of beast disasters and changes has made military garrisons all over the world busy and useful, and it has also created a way out and opportunities for those in the army; so, no matter what The former Qingzhengsi and the current Lixingyuan each have their own internal affairs and connections."
"Therefore, the supervisor who was exempted from the beast disaster became the best person in the eyes of some people from Nanya (Sixteenth Guards) to ask questions and be a great benefactor in disguise. Although, now he can Those who stand on the stage to support and support are the Jinwu Lingwei Mansion and Xantai."
"As for using you politely, perhaps in the eyes of some people, it also represents another possibility and future for the current Dongge ministers." At this point, the teacher also concluded: "So your words and deeds, in fact, It is inevitable that everyone will tell you that this is no longer a simple way of balancing and restricting.”
"Thank you, teacher, for clarifying your doubts. The student understands." After hearing this, Yu Cong was silent for a long time. Finally, he solemnly bowed his hands and thanked him: "Whether we want to argue or not is another matter; but what the student wants is also a matter of course. But I have a clear conscience; when things are argued with reason, I still won’t let go.”
In Qingqi Garden, it quickly became lively with the re-visiting of Ajie and her party. Along with her came a batch of daily necessities and ornamental utensils; and according to the current situation in Tingliu Xiaozhu, everyone has a share. Even Linghu Xiaomu was no exception, he had obviously already known about it.
Jiang Tian, who was secretly aware of her impatient attitude, also took advantage of the situation and formally introduced/entrusted her to everyone in Tingliu Xiaozhu; at the same time, he also announced that when he was no longer home, he would be replaced by She came to take charge and be responsible for the property related to Qingqi Garden and the expenses of the small building.
Therefore, although Jiang Tian could not give her a formal title for the time being, he would first give her the status of being the hostess of Qingqi Garden. The happiest person about this was naturally Shunqing; followed by Ayun, who had always been submissive and willing to obey orders; and Mingfei, who couldn't express his position; and finally, Linghu Xiaomu, who was a little surprised.
However, she was surprised that the vague rumors actually turned into facts before her eyes; she did not want to expect or ask for more things. In her own somewhat arrogant words, it would be good if she could maintain the status quo; she is not interested in becoming someone's private pet in someone's garden.
In contrast, the dozen or so servants headed by Lao Gu who were affiliated with Qingqi Garden and who had basically no sense of presence in ordinary times also signed a new deed of personal relationship transfer under the auspices and witness of Sister A. There are almost no disturbances, just in between business as usual, some new changes are brought about.
For example, Shunqing is still responsible for the family affairs in the house, and Lao Gu is in charge of the daily affairs of the outer courtyard; while the blind Ayun continues to take care of Mingfei, and occasionally works part-time as a musician; while Mingfei, who cannot move, continues to act cute, Serves as a big pillow and a skill figure; the extra Linghu Xiaomu follows outside.
After confirming the relationship and general status, Sister A did not take over Tingliu Xiaozhu; instead, she made a suggestion to Jiang Tian to renovate the garden. It happened that she still held a sum of more than 4,000 pieces of unused property in her hands, which could be used to further improve the living environment.
After all, Qingqi Garden, once the Pei family's villa, has been in continuous use for some years; it has only undergone some repairs to maintain the current status. Coupled with the fact that Jiang Tian continued to cause trouble in the backyard every night, it was actually a bit messy. Of course Jiang Tian did nothing, so he took her to the secret warehouse in the back garden.
Therefore, when Ajie left Qingqi Garden again, what was originally just a renovation project had been overturned and the cost had doubled, turning it into a construction project for several new buildings in the garden. . Unlike ordinary private houses, the artificial materials required to rebuild a garden are expensive.
After confirming the relationship, there is a little good news. It's just that Ming Fei's physical recovery progress has increased; he can now turn his head slightly, with a slightly obvious expression on his face; he can even make some cooing and humming noises involuntarily when playing with it.
However, Jiang Tian was not able to cultivate himself in Qingqi Garden for long. It was almost until the third day that he had to return to the underground censorship department in the southwest of the city with a piece of official document. Because a large number of supporting personnel and equipment have just been allocated and mobilized; they are just waiting for his inspection and selection.
