Great Blue Night Watchman

Chapter 239 Establishing Prestige in Officialdom

The earth-shattering events far away in Quzhou cannot disturb the tranquil mountains and rivers of Xishan...

In the residence in the middle of Xishan Mountain, a Zen room opens to the north. As the sun moves westward, it shines on the face of a girl on the bed. This face is three points more beautiful than the most gorgeous spring flowers.

Suddenly, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, she slowly opened her eyes, and looked around in surprise...

This is where?

Am I alive or dead?

Lu Youwei sat up suddenly, feeling the touch of her body, and also feeling a completely different feeling. Before, she was completely weak, but today, her whole body is strong...

I'm not dead, how could I not be dead? here……

The door opened suddenly, and a familiar face appeared, it was Liu'er!

Miss, you're awake! You're finally awake! You've been sleeping for three days and three nights... Liu'er hugged Lu Youwei and shook her so hard that she jumped...

Liu'er, what's going on? Where is this?

Miss, I'm telling you...

Lu Youwei's face turned red and her heart beat extremely fast...

That night, he came. She always thought she saw him in a dream, but it was not true. He really came. He used his power to heal her. She thought she felt his embrace in her dream. Now she knows that this It's not a dream, this reality is better than a dream...

In the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sat at the top position, smiling as he faced an old man sitting across from him. This old man was Li Pingbo, a great scholar of the Gongyuan Academy. To be honest, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was quite annoyed with him, but he did not forget his identity, nor did he Forget the taboos of the Eastern Palace passed down from ancient times. The taboo in the East Palace is that you must not despise the great scholar at all. No matter how annoying he is, you must show your own demeanor and tolerance.

The East Palace, the Crown Prince.

What is a crown prince? Prepare kings.

The preparatory king is not yet a formal king, so you cannot do things like governing the country. If you do, it will be a taboo.

So, how do you send a signal to everyone to prove that you are suitable for taking over in the future? There is only one law that remains unchanged, and that is kindness and generosity.

The more you show it, the more people will believe it, and the reputation will rise. Everyone will say that the prince is benevolent and will be a wise king in the future. This is enough.

In the past, the prince had been working hard to build his own character and had always been virtuous. However, now he was very angry. He often thought: Go to hell with virtuous people, I want to kill people! ! !

His third brother, His Highness the Third Prince, colluded with the courtiers from all directions and raked in more than half of the newly minted Holy Scholars. What was he going to do? The direction of the wind has changed a bit recently, and everyone's evaluation of the Third Prince has gradually become clearer. His Highness has a broad vision and a big plan, and can accomplish great things. This year's floods were caused by the Third Prince who was ordered to provide disaster relief. Wherever he went, he was supported by all the people... …

Disaster relief has always been the prerogative of the prince, either he personally takes action, or the other princes under his control do it, but this year, it fell to the third prince.

Disaster relief is purely a matter of the court sending money and goods. How difficult can it be? Why give away a bunch of money just because you have a big picture and vision and can do big things?

He knows why. The courtiers began to exert their strength, Concubine Li, the legitimate mother of the third prince, also exerted their strength, Concubine Li's natal family, the Dongwang Palace also exerted their strength...

The prince wouldn't care if these people were picked out individually, but together, overtly and covertly, they became an extremely powerful force.

A few days ago, the Third Prince's faction tried their best to send Lu Yujing, the son of Prime Minister Lu Tiancong, to Wenyuan Pavilion. This was a very dangerous signal.

The prime minister is the most critical figure in the battle for the throne.

Although his status has determined that he cannot take sides, people always have relatives and friends. The third prince planned hard and sent his son to Wenyuan Pavilion, which represents the authentic culture and Taoism. How could he not like it? Moreover, the third prince also personally acted as matchmaker for Lu Yujing, and the marriage he was talking about was also from their faction. Even if Lu Tiancong didn't take sides, he should have a preference.

This thing is very disgusting and very difficult to break.

The third prince is trying to please Lu Yujing. If you just wait and see what happens, the third prince will succeed in winning over Lu Tiancong. If you try to sabotage it, it will anger Lu Tiancong and the third prince will be even more successful...

I really don’t know who gave the third prince such a sinister idea. I really want to take his head off...

Fortunately, he also has staff here, and the staff in the Prince's Mansion gave the prince a good idea, which was to kill Lin Su...

Lin Su offended a lot of courtiers and was disliked by his father. If he were killed, the prince's status would skyrocket...

Today, while he was dealing with the great scholar in front of him, he was also waiting for the good news...

Duan Zong has been out of Beijing for three days, and it’s time to come back today...

Suddenly, the Jing Emperor Bell rang...

When the Emperor's Shocking Bell rings, everyone in the Forbidden Palace hears it, including the East Palace.

The prince was suddenly startled, what happened?

The people around him immediately went out to inquire about the news. Li Pingbo also went out. Qiu Zixiu served His Highness the Crown Prince a cup of tea, and his brows furrowed quietly...

Zixiu, what do you think?

I have an ominous premonition...

The prince was slightly shocked...

Soon, the first wave of news came back: Lin Su rang the Emperor's Shocking Bell!

The prince jumped up suddenly: Why is he not dead? Where is Duan Zong?

The people below looked at each other, and no one could answer.

Qiu Zixiu raised his eyebrows lightly: This is the reason why I feel so ominous, and it finally came true... Lin Su is an unpredictable person. He has friendship with the Demon Emperor. He is pursued in the world and it is difficult to win.

Demon King? The prince also frowned: Does it mean that the Demon Emperor is always with him? Duan Zong is already in danger? If this son rings the emperor's alarm bell, is he accusing me to the father in person?

It can only be like this!

Regardless of whether Duan Zong is dead or alive, whether the Demon Emperor takes action or someone else takes action, one thing is certain, that is, the plan to assassinate Lin Su went bankrupt.

The first thing Lin Su did when he returned to the capital was to ring the Jing Emperor Bell. When he met His Majesty, he would definitely accuse himself of sending someone to kill him...

Qiu Zixiu smiled faintly: Your Highness, there is no need to worry. If Your Majesty knew that Your Highness sent someone to kill him, I am afraid he would be secretly happy in his heart, and he would never be dissatisfied with Your Highness for this matter.

The prince is completely relieved, that's right!

The East Palace sent people to kill ministers. It would be taboo to bring it to the table, but who can bring it to the table?

Duan Zong will not be caught and publicly accused by you. Even if he is really that soft, the prince will recognize him...

To sum up, this time the Jing Emperor Bell was struck in vain, and it may have caused a lot of trouble...

The second wave of news came soon...

Lin Su did not accuse the crown prince in front of His Majesty at all, but pulled out another big carrot. The hometown of Qin Fangweng, the magistrate of Quzhou, was built in the land of the Demon Sealing. He colluded with the Medicine God Valley and used the earth's evil water to melt the seal of the Heaven Sealing Sea. He intended to release the Black Bone Demon Clan and violated the first rule of the Iron Code of the Great Blue. Your Majesty was furious and issued an imperial edict. The nine clans of the Qin family will be executed together...

The prince was shocked!

Qiu Zixiu was shocked!

All the staff were shocked!

The biggest thing they could imagine was that Lin Su would accuse the crown prince to His Majesty. Who would have thought that the target of his attack would be Qin Fangweng, the magistrate of Quzhou? Who would have thought that the big melon he picked would be an ironclad case?

After a trip to the world, in less than four days, a second-grade official was killed by nine tribes!

Your Highness, Qin Fangweng... Qin Fangweng is the most loyal to Your Highness. Your Highness, you must save him! Otherwise, the ministers who followed His Highness all the way... may be disappointed...

The prince's head hurts.

Why doesn't he want to keep Qin Fangweng?

Qin Fangweng can be said to be the most loyal dog of the prince. He guards the prosperity of Quzhou and sends a large amount of money to the East Palace every year. The Quzhou silk he controls is actually taken care of by the prince. Without this continuous flow of money, , what does he do to consolidate his power?

The first one, and the second one, as the staff said, there are only a few people who are truly loyal to the prince, Qin Fangweng, Zhang Wenyuan, Zhao Xun, Zuo Kuanzhou... Most of the others are on both sides. If the prince is under his subordinates, When faced with such a crisis, if you can't do anything, won't it make others feel chilly? How can others be loyal to him?

However, how could this case be ordinary?

Violating the first rule of Da Cang Iron Rule, His Majesty personally issued an imperial edict to punish the nine tribes...

Your Highness, precisely because of the seriousness of this case, if Your Highness can reverse the situation, his influence will be extraordinary. A staff member said.

What this man said was pure fart. The prince rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to him...

This case is serious, can it be reversed? Come on, come on, show me the pages!

Another aide said: Qin Fangweng is a second-grade official, what does he want? Following His Highness the Crown Prince, there is a bright future ahead. Why should he release the Black Bone Demon Clan? Lin Su broke the news about this matter, and there must be something hidden in it. …”

This makes sense...

The prince's eyes flashed coldly: Do you think this matter was originally false?

There must be something hidden!

Okay, even if you kill the Nine Clan, there must be an interrogation process. I would like to ask Qin Fangweng what the truth is...

He really didn't dare to openly disobey his father's imperial decree, but what if the matter itself was false? If things were false, he could even take this opportunity to capture Lin Su!

He wantonly slandered a second-rank official of the imperial court and misled the king to issue an order to kill his clan. This was a heinous crime that could even lead to beheading!

He quickly found a new direction.

Lin Su came out of the palace, and the palace guards on both sides cast a fearful look at the number one scholar.

Not only did the number one scholar have a good reputation, but his official status was also extraordinary. Only a few days after he took office, he directly executed a second-grade official with all nine clans.

This is establishing prestige.

When literary masters enter politics, they are often trampled by political elders until they doubt their lives, but he is different. He slaps the elders so hard that the whole world can hear...

Even palace guards would not want to offend such a person.

There were still about ten feet away from the inn, and Lin Su had already joined the crowd.

A voice came from behind: Have you had a great time today?

It's Zhang Yiyu.

Lin Su slowly turned around and showed a bright smile: Qin Fangweng, I finally got rid of this tone.

What else? You have accomplished such great achievements, and Yu Da Cang's life and death are almost intermittent. Has His Majesty promoted you to an official? How many levels?

Objectively speaking, it is normal to be promoted to three levels.

Lin Su smiled even brighter: Promoted? You are too vulgar, why did you get promoted as soon as you opened your mouth? Your Majesty did not give me a promotion, but he gave me a better reward.

Huh? What reward?

I will rest for a month and a half, and I will give you ten golden beads!

Zhang Yiyu couldn't move his eyes: What else?

Gone!

I'll give you a month and a half of leave and ten gold beads. Do you think this reward is... good?

Of course. How comfortable is it to take a month and a half of vacation? Your Majesty still understands me. The best thing is these gold beads. I will raise a dog when I go home. I will use these gold beads to string a necklace and wear it around the dog's neck. , Ding Ding Dang, cute and face...

Zhang Yiyu looked at him for a long time and sighed...

I know you are forcing a smile.

I know you are completely disappointed with the court.

But in this case, you can only talk to me, but don't complain to others, it will lead to death. Use the gold beads given by the emperor to make a necklace for your dog. Look at who is as harmful as you. .

I'm going back to the inn, what about you? Do you want to take a bath with my new soap in the inn? Feel the relaxation and comfort of washing away the dust and returning to prosperity?

Yes! Zhang Yiyu nodded directly: Let's go! I know a good inn.

If he is high-spirited, she can choose to leave. Now that he feels frustrated, Zhang Yiyu wants to accompany him, even if she can't comfort him...

Yuebin Hotel in Beijing is a large and prosperous inn. The high-end guest rooms are equipped with all kinds of supplies. Lin Su went into the bathroom and washed away the dust and dust along the way with soap. When he came out, he was refreshed and elegant. The beautiful young master in troubled times. Zhang Yiyu had already boiled the water and put a cup of fragrant tea into his hands.

Drink this cup of tea and let go of those bad things in the court.

Lin Su smiled: Do you think I really can't let go? I never expected to be treated normally in the court. Do you know why?

Why?

Because the court has never been my destination, it's just...the battlefield!

The court is just a battlefield.

On the battlefield, do you still expect your opponent to be fair to you?

Zhang Yiyu understood, but her heart tightened. Who is your opponent...?

Including the present His Majesty?

You shouldn't tell me these things...

I can tell you! Maybe in the current capital, I can only tell you.

Why? Zhang Yiyu's heart rippled.

Because you are you!

Another familiar phrase you are you...

That day, she asked An Ye, why did you come to me when something happened to you?

An Ye told her something meaningful, because you are you...

Today, he said the same thing.

Five words, Zhang Yiyu was confused...

She slowly held up the teacup: Who am I in your heart?

It was a straightforward statement, but she really wanted to know...

Lin Su smiled and said: Who are you? You are an old friend of Jianghu, you are a former guest of the Lin family, you are the one who wants to stand in front of me even though you know he will die! Yiyu, I know that my biggest gain from this trip to Jianghu is What? It’s not about killing Qin Fangweng, it’s not about learning the Nine Swords of Dugu, but it’s about knowing that when I’m in danger, someone is willing to stand up and protect me with his life!”

He and Zhang Yiyu met in the wilderness and have never forgotten each other in the world.

They had drifted apart, and they had secret grudges, but now, with her sacrifice to protect each other, everything has disappeared...

Zhang Yiyu's tenderness turned into a faint sentence: You know... Then why don't you write me a poem?

Lin Su's eyes widened: I just returned to the capital, and I just experienced a court battle. I haven't slept for three days and three nights, and you caught me writing poems. Are you not afraid that the poems I write for you will be wrong? Transform?

I……

She just uttered a word and suddenly stopped...

Lin Su's eyes also changed: Why did you find your brother? Are you afraid that I will do something to his sister?

Don't say I'm here... Zhang Yiyu said softly, and the person disappeared, and the bathroom door behind him closed silently.

There was a knock on the door, and Zhang Haoran's voice came: Open the door!
