#560: The Funeral Of Loyal Minister If Q
The autumn wind is bleak, the dead leaves fall, and the sky is cloudy.
Outside the Qin’s house, there is no special sign, but two white lanterns are hung at the door.
The waiter at the door let out a suffocating breath. In the words of his teacher, it is really miserable to have to go to work and go to school in this weather.
“Old Wen, you are actually in charge of the security.” Dan Chixia, wearing a white plain shirt, came over to say hello: “I thought it would be Jin Wuwei who was in charge of the security here, after all, His Majesty is here…”
“Jin Wuwei is inside, you can see the commander picking up guests when you walk in – but he is treated better than me, at least he has a chair to sit on.” The waiter clasped his hands and said, “Do you have an invitation letter? If you don’t, roll it round and round.”
“Why do you still have such a bad temper…” Dan Chixia sighed and took out an invitation letter with gold border on a black background to register with the patrol officer at the door.
He just walked in and didn’t take two steps, then hesitantly turned around, approached the waiter and said in a low voice, “There will be a lot of big people coming, maybe someone will bring their family members… Listen to my advice, you’d better stay open. One eye shuts the other.”
“I’m not Lai Ya, she can just close both eyes, she can’t see anyway.” Shi Wen sneered: “My Shi Wen’s favorite thing to do is to enforce the law impartially and use power and reason to enforce the law. Those arrogant **** stepped on their feet, let them know what an iron plate is and what a south wall is!”
“Want to go through the back door and have an affair?” Shi Wen raised his arm, revealing his fishbone bracers: “My armor reminds me every moment that this is the price of an affair, a corrupt gift. , the consequences of the fall!”
Dan Chixia sighed, knowing that she could not persuade her to serve Wen.
Dan Chixia has unexpectedly developed some friendship with Shi Wen since she competed in Qin Leyin’s class five years ago, and has become one of Shi Wen’s few friends. After leaving the academy, Dan Chixia became the Imperial Guard of Yulin, and the Servant joined the Patrol Division. At this time, Dan Chixia knew why he would rather lose his life and learn the tactics of warfare—he wanted to track down why his village was back then. Sudden fire.
After Cha Huan rescued the servant Wen Wen Lai Ya, he tried to find out the cause, but in the end it didn’t work out – Cha Huan Kong has force, he is neither popular nor in the system, but he still has principles, killing people to save He is naturally the best in the world, but the pursuit of murder is exactly the area where he is powerless.
At other times, perhaps Shi Wen can’t find the truth until he dies, but his teacher is more than ten thousand people, even more than one person, the ‘hidden phase’ Qin Leyin, which makes Shi Wen have nowhere to go. The background that people dare to deceive; more importantly, in recent years, the landlords have criticized the nobles, many officials have been sacked, and many old cases have been turned out.
With such a unique situation, Shi Wen easily found the truth of the year – it is actually a very common story. The son, who is used to eating delicious food from mountains and seas, came to a small village and suddenly fell in love with the clear water tofu in the countryside. If he couldn’t do it, he was injured by the villagers, and in a fit of anger, he set fire to the village.
But it’s nothing. There are scum all the time. What really made Shiwen go to the point of death was the attitude of the court at that time. Because the father of the son and brother is a high-ranking member of the court, the inspection and punishment department is completely silent. Everyone tacitly erased the information and characterized the fire in the village as an accident. Even Cha Huan could not ask any clues.
Shi Wen couldn’t even take revenge. On the night of the demon transformation, the young man turned into a beast and was hacked to death by others.
Since then, Shi Wen has devoted himself to the work of the Criminal Division, day and night, never on vacation. He has arrested thousands of prisoners, and many prisoners killed by him have a lot of power for a while. So old that five years later, Dan Chixia was just an ordinary Yulin Imperial Guard, while Shi Wen was the captain of the Inspection and Punishment Division.
Moreover, Shi Wen never took off the set of fishbone armor that Qin Leyin gave him. Hundreds of iron needles were piercing his flesh and blood all the time, stimulating his nerves and brewing his pain. Dan Chixia didn’t understand why he was doing this to himself – it was clear that the hatred had ended.
“He always wanted to bet his life for something, but now he can’t even find a reason to bet.” Lai Ya said when chatting: “Don’t disturb him, let him escape into reality.”
Dan Chixia has always admired this blindfolded girl. Her wisdom is almost beyond that of all her peers he has ever met, and Laiya’s achievements are the highest among the students of the Imperial Academy. She is already a matter of the cabinet. secretary.
But he couldn’t be as calm as Laiya, and he could watch Shiwen seek his own death, and couldn’t help but persuade: “Ziwen, of course you can use the law, reason, and rules to enforce it. Justice, but it’s different now…the teacher is dead!”
“Apart from your friendship with Laiya and me, do you have friendship with other people? I don’t even mention Your Majesty. Ya, I have classmates with us, but have you ever walked around? Have you met Principal Cha as many times as you can in the past few years? There are many, many more… You have never established your own network!”
“In the past, when the teacher was here, everyone was willing to open the door for you to run wild in Yanjing, but now it’s different. If you continue to offend people like this… Yes, you won’t hit the wall, you There won’t even be enemies, but you’ll definitely get stuck in a quagmire and get nothing done! Just like the old principal!”
“The students under the teacher’s door will at most pull you when you are about to die, but they will never take the initiative to help you. You can be unlikable, but you can’t be annoying!”
Dan Chixia patted Shi Wen’s shoulder: “Make some plans for yourself.”
Shi Wen looked at him calmly and pointed to the back of the door: “Go in.”
“Alas.” Dan Chixia sighed and stopped speaking, but she stood beside the waiter and stood guard in front of the Qin’s house. The meaning was very obvious.
Shi Wen’s eyes were complicated, and he snorted coldly: “Okay, I’m tired of standing anyway, so I’ll let you come to see the door.”
Dan Chixia didn’t care about his attitude either: “Speaking of which, the scale of the teacher’s funeral is too small, right? Based on the teacher’s achievements, I don’t think even a state funeral is excessive, but this…”
“He always likes to keep a low profile, so it’s not that you don’t know it.” Shi Wen is not surprised by this: “Even if everyone in the court knows who issues orders in the cabinet, he is not named in the cabinet, and he has only one “Swordsman” is an idle position in the imperial court. I used to think that he made the old man Ling Jiangli continue to be the leader and assistant for the sake of overall stability, but now it seems…”
“Cough cough!” At this time, Dan Chixia coughed twice.
Shi Wen glanced at him puzzled: “Why? Itchy throat? If you want to drink water, go in and pour yourself a cup. Having said that, now that the political situation has stabilized, and the Queen is already in power, when will Ling Jiangli step down? I have a lot of black stuff in my hands, and I’m just waiting to beat the drowning dog…”
“Cough, cough, cough!” Dan Chixia suddenly coughed violently, as if she was about to cough out her lungs.
“Excuse me, is this the entrance to the Qin family’s farewell ceremony?” Behind the waiter, came an old voice that was neither yin nor yang.
The waiter turned his head and saw an old vulture, and said expressionlessly, “Where’s the invitation?”
Ling Jiangli took out an invitation letter from his sleeve, Dan Chixia hurriedly pushed aside the waiter, and said with a haha, “Why doesn’t the first assistant take the guards and don’t take the car today, and there are no two waiters next to him, Your Excellency is the pillar of the country, in case of any accident…”
“The guards and cars are all equipment of the imperial court. The old man is on vacation today. Naturally, he doesn’t have a guard’s car. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a public tool for private use?” Ling Jiangli calmly said: “The position of the first assistant is like walking on thin ice, and it can’t be added any more. It’s a black material for people to fall into the pit.”
The smile on Dan Chixia’s face couldn’t hold up anymore, and the waiter snorted coldly: “Please!”
Just at this moment, a long roar suddenly came from the sky: “God **** it, you are immortal, blocked at other people’s door and bullied children?”
Ling Jiangli glanced back and said expressionlessly, “Headmaster Cha, stay safe.”
Seeing the arrival of Cha Huan, Dan Chixia breathed a sigh of relief, and even the waiter felt relieved. You must know that Ling Jiangli is not only the chief assistant of the cabinet, he is also a military pillar, even if he is hidden, it is enough to make them both tremble and lose their minds!
Cha Huan took out an invitation letter, put on Ling Jiangli’s shoulder and said, “Let’s go, the old man will not die, we old men are standing here, and no one else dares to come in, for fear of bumping us. You are so old, why are you still so ignorant.”
Ling Jiangli looked at Cha Huan in surprise, but he wasn’t surprised by Cha Huan’s rambunctious temperament. In fact, in the past few years, Cha Huan has shown signs of rejuvenation. The more successful his career is, the closer his psychological age is. Young people, many people feel that Cha Huan is expected to become the first old man to live over 100 years old in modern times.
What really surprised the cabinet chief was that although Cha Huan was very rude in his words, his attitude was undoubtedly much closer than before. In the past, Cha Huan always glared at him and then turned away, so how could he hook his shoulders?
Ling Jiang moved inwardly and said softly, “It seems that you really treat him as a son.”
“Just him? I think he’s too young for him to be my grandson.” Cha Huan snorted coldly and pulled him inside: “Don’t get me wrong, I just think that the next time I attend may be your funeral. , so I will talk to you a few more words now, so as not to miss the opportunity later.”
“With Sima Huo around, this old man won’t die so easily.” Ling Jiangli said, “Don’t worry, Cha Huan, we will definitely outlive you, and we won’t give you a chance to discredit us after we die.”
“I slander you and you still need to wait for you to die?” Cha Huan smiled disdainfully, “Then you have to live a good life.”
“Even if it were me, looking at a Yanjing with no acquaintance, I would be engulfed by sorrow.”
When the two heavyweights entered, the operators at the front of Qin’s house all relaxed, and then more guests entered one after another.
“Thank you for ruling!”
Seeing Xie Chenyuan in white plain clothes, Dan Chixia didn’t give Shiwen a chance to offend anyone, and said hello first: “I didn’t expect you to return to Yanjing.”
If it is said that the offending order will be saved, then if you offend this, you should wait to retire – Xie Chenyuan is now the consul of Youyun District, the seed player of the future cabinet bachelor, the first to respond and vigorously promote the reform pioneer, Even when the White Night Party first stepped into the political arena, it immediately changed its flag and joined it. In the past five years, it has won several political speculations, and I am even more capable. I managed the Youyun District in an orderly manner. Last year, the production of Youyun District was completed. The total value has doubled!
“Xie Mou has no qualifications to refuse Qin Zhangjian’s invitation.” Xie Chenyuan glanced at the two couples who had just entered the door, “Are those two good-eyed students the latest Yanjing celebrity?”
“No, they are the husband and wife of Jing Zhengtang from Morrowind, and they seem to be old friends of the teacher.” Dan Chixia said.
“Silver blood deceased… Silver blood seven wonders Jing Zhengwei’s brother?” Xie Chenyuan suddenly realized: “To be valued by Qin Zhangjian, he must be a great person. By the way, is there a guest list? I want to see who is there. I don’t know, lest I offend the nobles of Yanjing later…”
“I’m sorry to govern Xie, this doesn’t seem to be in line with the rules…” Dan Chixia stood in front of the waiter and politely declined the request.
“Anyway, I knew who the guests were after I went in, so what does it matter if you let me see now.” Xie Chenyuan said gently: “Of course, if it’s really inappropriate, then Xie is taking the liberty.”
Dan Chixia was slightly shaken, and even the waiter didn’t make a sound. However, before they could agree, Xie Chenyuan suddenly looked to the other side of the street.
“Why did he come… Hehe, it’s interesting now.” Xie Chenyuan had a strange expression on her face, and quickly entered the Qin’s house, as if avoiding something.
Dan Chixia and Shi Wen were a little confused, but soon, when the elegant man with glasses appeared in front of them, it was almost difficult for them to maintain the calmness on their faces!
“Excuse me, is this a violinist?”
Shi Wen took a deep breath and nodded, “Yes, do you have an invitation letter?”
“Yes.”
The waiter opened it for inspection, and said calmly, “Please come in, Admiral Lan, someone will receive you inside.”
Lan Yan nodded slightly towards them and calmly stepped into the Qin home. When he was out of sight, the waiter and Dan Chixia couldn’t help gasping for breath – Lan Yan actually returned to Yanjing! ?
The rebels who attacked Yanjing five years ago were naturally punished, but under the confidence of ‘holding the holy sword’, the court generously gave them a chance to reform, not only did they not execute the rebel leader , and even allowed them to leave Huiyao with their loyal part – yes, that is, to drive them to go on an expedition to explore other continents!
Originally, everyone thought that this was a death sentence that was close to exile, but it was unexpected that the fleet led by Lan Yan returned with a full load, brought detailed charts, and even captured a few prisoners in the Western Continent, making the court fully aware of the Western Continent. threaten.
After going back and forth, Lan Yan has made extraordinary achievements over the years. Even if there are huge stains on his resume, he can’t hide his glory. What’s more, there is Qin Leyin’s help in the court, so Lan Yan has made a comeback in just a few years. , last year, he was promoted to Admiral of Naval Division, and ruled over one of the three major naval divisions of Huiyao!
But compared to Lan Yan’s achievements, the reason why Shi Wen, Xie Chenyuan and others care about him so much is more because of Qin Leyin’s evaluation of him!
“A traitor in troubled times, a capable minister of governance.”
“As long as the holy sword is inexhaustible, Lan Yan will never dare to fight back; once the holy sword hangs in the air, Lan Yan will never be reconciled.”
“Why did the teacher invite Lan Yan to come back to his funeral…” Shi Wen’s eyes flickered: “Is he worried that Lan Yan will rebel after he dies, so he tricked him back to kill him?”
However, both of them have realized at this time that today’s funeral will never be peaceful.
There are important court officials such as Ling Jiangli, Cha Huan, and An Xue, and Xie Chenyuan, Lan Yan and other senior officials of the frontier. According to Qin Leyin’s character, he must have something else to bring these people together. picture!
Suddenly, a melodious bell sounded from the inner house, announcing that the ceremony was about to begin. The waiter immediately asked the operator to close the door, and then he and Dan Chixia entered the auditorium together. The first thing that caught his eye was the heavy willow coffin.
All the guests have already taken their seats. Naturally, in the first row are Empress Ming Shuiyun, President of the Steam Chamber of Commerce Qin Yueshi, Minister of Punishment Qin Yueyang, and officials of the Ministry of Personnel Qian Yuya and Gan of the Ministry of Housing. Member Liying, Education Secretary Lin Xue, Imperial Academy teacher Kui Nianqiu and other close friends.
Then the second row is the heavyweights such as “faceless” Anxie, Ling Jiangli, Cha Huan, Xie Chenyuan, and Lan Yan.
Then there are friends who Qin Leyin specially named to invite during his lifetime, such as Jing Zhengtang, Xian Chenchen, executive member of the Department of Environment, Liu Yueyan, the inspector of Dongyang, Xia Shuangli, and Feng Dai, who are members of the Department of Foreign Affairs. Lan, Qi Taolang, Ning Chaoyan, Zhong Qingyun, etc.
Dan Chixia and Shiwen naturally had to sit in the back. When they saw that there were just two vacant seats beside Laiya~IndoMTL.com~, they sat quietly and waited for the start.
At this time, the queen suddenly turned around and handed a card to the headteacher behind. Cha Huan looked at the contents of the card and was a little surprised: “I’m coming?”
“He said he wanted you to preside.” The Queen’s voice had a soft sadness.
Cha Huan didn’t refuse. He used to stand in front of the coffin, facing everyone. At this time, everyone suddenly realized that the principal was wearing the most simple white clothes today, without adding any other colors.
“Dear relatives, comrades, friends. Today, it is with a very heavy heart that we bid our final farewell to Qin Leyin. He has walked all the way in the world, held on to all the perseverance in the world, and defeated all the world’s difficulties. We are confident that he will rest in your light, and he will turn into light and watch us forever.”
There were sobbing sounds in the auditorium, and many women couldn’t hold back their tears, and even the waiter couldn’t hold back his eyes turning red.
“He is a pure, beautiful, noble person, his exploits will endure forever, his career will benefit forever, and he will live in our hearts forever…”
Bang!
A loud noise suddenly interrupted all the sounds in the auditorium.
Bang!
When the second loud noise exploded, everyone’s faces became terrified. Cha Huan noticed that they were watching behind him, and he slowly turned his head to look…
Bang!
As everyone watched, there was an explosion in the coffin, and the lid of the coffin was so shaken that it almost opened.
