Chapter 195 release

So, Ye Xingyuan made 2,700 taels of silver after one go, and Jingzhao Mansion closed the case according to the original verdict. Li Chuang was already dying and believed that even if he didn't have to kill someone to pay for his life this time, he would have to lose his official position and lose his future. What's the fun of living?

Who knew that he had only been in prison for one time and was released as it was in two or three days, saying that he had arrested the wrong person and had no explanation, which made him confused. He clearly admitted that he had killed someone in the street, how could he get acquitted?

After leaving the prison, Ye Xingyuan took him back to the inn, explained in detail, and handed over all the money to him. Only then did Li Cheng realize that Jingzhao Mansion was corrupt and foolish, and he had reached this point. He felt mixed emotions and didn't know how to react.

He is a loyal descendant. Since he remembers, he has been loyal to the country and hates the dark and corruption in the officialdom the most. Now he saves his life and future because of the corruption in the officialdom. This feeling is really unspeakable to outsiders.

Li Cheng is a honest man. He dared not accept the money sold by the sword, so he forced him to put it into Ye Xingyuan's hands. He said gratefully: "Brother Ye is responsible for me. How could I not know this kindness? This precious sword falls into the hands of others. If I hadn't argued with reason, how could I get the money?

I understand very well, even if my life is saved by you, my brother. How dare you bear this external thing? Please keep these money. You have to spend a lot of money on your way to the Jinshi in Beijing, and you have to keep more money."

Ye Xingyuan smiled and said, "I am loyal to Brother Li, and I just reached out to help me. It's just a small task. How dare I get the silver you exchanged for your heirloom sword? Besides, Brother Li was already very tight, so he had to sell his sword to help my brothers. You should keep the money, I'll have enough of it."

Ye Xingyuan is not the case now. Because of the three adults’ funds for offering treasures and Tang Shiyan’s private small treasury, he really doesn’t take a few thousand taels of silver into consideration.

Li Cheng insisted on refusing to accept it, and Ye Xingyuan said it was painful, his face turned red, and he barely took a fraction of 700 taels. "There are 700 taels of silver, and we brothers can always hold on until the deal. If the remaining 2,000 taels are left, we will look down on me."

Ye Xingyuan pondered for a while and said, "Then I will accept it for the time being. Anyway, in Beijing, I plan to do some business and am about to raise capital. Since Brother Li is sincere, then these silver will be regarded as your shares. In the future, business will be your dividends."

He paused and said, "This time we lost the treasure sword passed down by Brother Li's family. If we have the chance in the future, I will definitely try every means to redeem Brother Li."

As long as Ye Xingyuan was willing to accept the money, Li Cheng would pay attention to what kind of business he was, let alone when he wanted to come to Ye Xingyuan, a scholar, to know what business he knew? As long as he didn't lose money too much, it would be fine. He would not say anything else to expect from the dividends.

As for the family-born treasure sword, Li Cheng felt very sorry, but the situation was better than others. He knew that not letting out the treasure sword might be a life disaster, so he couldn't see through it. What's more, he had already thought of giving up when selling his sword on the street for so many days, and now he was not very sad.

Ye Xingyuan said he wanted to redeem it, but he advised: "Don't make too many troubles, brother, now the eunuch is in power, and I also know that the father-in-law Wang Li of Shangshenjian is the adopted son of Wang Renming, the eunuch who is on the pen. Since the sword fell on his hands, let's bear it."

Li Cheng has been in Beijing for many days. Although he is loyal and upright, he does not flatter and cannot go through any way, his rough relationship with the characters is much clearer than that of Ye Xingyuan, who is a newcomer.

Ye Xingyuan suddenly realized that no wonder this little clerk could be a hero in Jingzhao Mansion. It turned out that there was such a big man behind him. Fortunately, although he offended him today, his own secrets were not revealed. Even if the eunuch Bingbi was unhappy, he would point the finger at Governor Hu who took the blame.

Ye Xingyuan went to Beijing this time and sent the Crow God auspiciousness. It represents the entire Dinghu Province, which means that the officialdom of Dinghu Province was inadvertently tied to him, the young man.

Although Governor Hu and others thought of this festival, they always thought that Ye Xingyuan was very low-key and steady in the provincial capital. He would definitely be cautious in his words and actions when he first entered Beijing, so that he would not abuse his identity. Who knew that this kid was so bold that he had only been in Beijing for three or five days, and even the eunuch who was the Silijian and the pen had already offended him.

If I had known in advance, the three officials of Dinghu Province would never have been so arrogant. It’s a pity that even if I later learned that Ye Xingyuan and the Raptors crossed the river and caused a big storm in the capital, it would be too late, and it would be too late to regret it.

Ye Xingyuan had already figured it out along the way that since he had taken advantage of this excuse to enter Beijing, and even had to touch the word "happy entry" that Qingliu scholars were most worried about, he had to maximize all resources. This identity name was used to pretend to be a tiger's power, and the Jingzhao Mansion was just a first-time test of the sharp edge, and the effect was quite good.

Of course, the most urgent task now is to wait for news from the Ministry of Rites and face the saints of auspiciousness. In addition, all arrangements and plans in Beijing must be pushed back. After Ye Xingyuan rescued Li Cheng, he waited patiently in the inn and did not go out easily.

But Wang Li got the treasure sword that day and was anxious to go back to his villa and secretly kept the treasure sword. Then he entered the palace to find his godfather Wang Ren.

The Silijian is on the east side of the Palace of Injunction. Every day, the official documents transferred from the cabinet must be submitted to the emperor after being approved by the Silijian. After the emperor reviews it, they will be transferred to the cabinet through the Silijian.

From a certain perspective, the Silijian is just the emperor's secretary and plays the role of uploading and is not too high. If the emperor or the cabinet is strong, they will have no status in the middle.

But in actual implementation, no matter where the leader is, the secretary of the leader often becomes one of the gathering points of power. The Silijian is a bridge between the emperor and the cabinet, especially Emperor Longping was negligent, and many official matters were even handed over to the Silijian for handling, which further expanded the power of the Silijian. Unfortunately, in practice, everyone knew it well.

Hong En, the eunuch in charge of the Sili Supervisor, was old and confused. Because he was an old man from Emperor Longping's residence, he always occupied this position. But in fact, he showed up in the prison every first day of the first day of the lunar month, and even if he sat, he was dozing off. The real power was in the hands of Wang Ren, who had always been low-key.

Compared with the prisons in the palace, Wang Ren is young, and is only over fifty years old this year. He entered the palace at the age of eight. Because he was well-behaved and clever, he studied hard and studied hard. Over the past forty years, he climbed up step by step and reached this popular position. However, he was always modest and cautious, not involved in right and wrong, not talking about the inner court, and not many in the outer court said that he was not good.

However, in recent years, Wang Ren's godson Wang Li has become a bit domineering and has gained some bad reputation in Jingzhao Mansion, saying that he is bullying men and women and accepting bribes. However, after all, there is a separate line, and I have never heard of Wang Ren's favoritism.

Most people think that this godson is not good enough to blame him, and a small number of people also think that Wang Ren is now in power, and he acts to avoid political struggles in the court to avoid arousing suspicion from the emperor, so his reputation is still not bad.

Now Wang Ren'an is sitting in prison, focusing on a memorial, and carefully annotating Emperor Longping with a red pen to read the articles of his ministers who are praying four and six. He insists that Wang Ren explain it in plain language before he is willing to reply.

Behind him were two young eunuchs in their teens serving, one arched to add charcoal to the stove, and the other was making tea.

Wang Ren was thin and only wore a jacket and had a flush complexion. He was very afraid of the cold, and because of his identity, he could not wear fur clothes in the palace. Therefore, every winter in the Sili Prison, the charcoal burned very much, and the entire warm room was hot.

Tea is a choke tea from the south overseas. It is a tribute from the southern countries. It produces very little and has the wonderful function of regulating yin and yang. Only Emperor Longping is anxious and has a light taste, and he doesn't like to drink tea because he knows that Wang Ren is the best, so half of it was given to him.

The tea leaves are slender and silvery, like flying snow and catkins. They are brewed with boiling water. White mist lingers on the tea cup, cages into a ball, and the fragrance is bound in it. Wang Ren takes the tea cup from the little eunuch, sucks it gently, and inhales the white mist into his lungs. He feels refreshed and happy. The pain that originally came from his lungs was also suppressed.

"This thing is wonderful, but unfortunately it's hard to find. I'm afraid that the food will be out of stock after the New Year." Wang Ren coughed gently, took a sip, and then put down the teacup.

Half of the essence of the cage of smoke is in the aroma wrapped in the smoke. If you suck it down, you will have no regrets. Although the tea is sweet, it is just a vulgar thing.

The little eunuch laughed and said, "When the New Year is over and the tribute is coming to Beijing again, Long Live will definitely give this tea again. As the dignity of my father-in-law, are you still afraid that you won't be able to drink it? Why save so much?"

Wang Ren is only willing to drink a cup of cigarette tea every day to nourish yin and moisten the lungs, suppress the fire of his lungs, and never drink too much. He is a very restrained person. He said seriously: "There are all spiritual things in the world, and our family is just a mess. Only by getting the emperor's eyes can we taste the best in this world. How dare you take good care of it?"

Most people in this world will be ruined as long as they have it and will never restrain themselves. But Wang Ren is different. He has always known the benefits of restraint, which is also his experience of climbing up all the way over the years. The little eunuch is confused, how could he know it was a good word?

"Godfather! Your thoughts are so great!" While they were talking, they heard a proud cry from the outside. Before the eunuch at the door had reported it, Wang Li had already poked his head in with a gaze, "I got it!"

Wang Ren slowly put down the memorial, frowned and looked at Wang Li, saying, "Little beast, you are not young anymore, why are you still so reckless? Sili, don't make loud noises."

He paused, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his tone became gentler. "What kind of flashy treasure have you obtained? You are so anxious to offer treasures like a monkey climbing a tree? Let's take it up and show it to your father."

Wang Li quickly expressed his merits, "Godfather, there is no flashy treasure, I have got the Li family's treasure sword!"
