You are not a white lotus at all [Quick Transmigration]

It was night when the pheasant essence left, about midnight.At that time, he said to the dark clouds in the sky: "It's easy to do things when the moon is dark and the wind is high." After speaking, he became a prototype, and flew out of the yard with flapping wings.

The sound of flapping wings echoed the distant barking of dogs, and then disappeared.

Ye Simian patted his dusty clothes again, and Chang Yuan chased him out with a gesture.

He saw the pheasant spirit running along the corner of the wall in the dark, running and resting for a while, and then changing direction.When the pheasant essence stopped again, Chang Yuan saw Bi Hua standing on the eaves, she was holding a machete with her left hand, drawing arcs up and down.

The night was very dark, and I couldn't see what she was doing clearly from a distance. Chang Yuan saw the pheasant walking around in place, so he went to take a closer look.He found that Bi Hua was shaving a white hair leisurely.The scimitar silently slashed across arcs in the night, cutting off the ends of the white hair one by one, once, twice... the more times, the longer the time, the white hair will naturally grow from two or three feet to the length of a palm.

When the white hair was only as long as the thumb, the pheasant essence ran to a hole in Jifu and got in.

The movements in Bi Hua's hands paused.

Time passed, and the pheasant slipped from one corner to another. Chang Yuan followed Bihua to focus on the pheasant again and again, and then saw that the pheasant continued to run unconsciously, until he was about to fly from a window. go in.He was tied back again by a shawl.

The scimitar was slanted against the neck, and the pheasant clarified: "I, I will send a message! I will definitely not do anything!"

Bi Hua remained expressionless: "The last time was an accident, and he was caught flying around to make soup, involuntarily; the last time he came here to steal food, and was accidentally picked up for a few days, very innocent; this time It’s just passing a message, helping people or even doing voluntary work, and it’s even more enthusiastic—how can you get involved with all the immortals? How did you come here by such a coincidence to make things even more messy?”

Pheasant Essence: "This... is really a coincidence. Probably, it's... ha ha... fairy fate... ha ha..."

Throwing the pheasant essence out of the courtyard, Bi Hua directly said: "Get lost! Then break the leg!"

The pheasant essence flapped its wings and landed. After running for a while, it still stopped in the middle of the street: "There is really a message! Don't, don't..."

There was a beeping sound in the distance, the pheasant stopped talking, wandered around for a while, and finally continued to face this side in the middle of the run.Seeing this, Bi Hua pinched the pheasant essence with one finger, floated down and asked, "What's the matter?"

The pheasant spirit looked at her several times.

Bi Hua tilted her head to look at him with a cold face.

So the pheasant spirit compromised, and carefully told the ins and outs: "That's it, me, yesterday..."

After rambling and finally explaining the matter clearly, Ye Jijing looked up and saw that Bihua's face was a little turbulent, no longer a look of "I'll kill you with nonsense", and he was a little relieved.

After a moment of silence, Bihua seemed to be remembering, and finally asked: "Who did you say sent the message?"

Pheasant Jing began to describe in detail the first meeting of the three of them—it should be said that they were two immortals and one chicken—in an attempt to help Bihua regain her memory.

"Oh." The emotion on Bihua's face disappeared, and he returned to an indifferent expression again, "Go back and say that the message has arrived, and I will ask you to come over later."

After saying that, the pheasant spirit was still thinking about going too smoothly, Bihua floated back to her original position, and continued to pluck out a white hair.

Make a mess, make a mess!Anyway, it’s already messed up, anyway, it’s none of my business, it’s none of my business to make a mess...

The wind of the knife was getting faster and it chopped off the white hair directly.The pheasant spirit hadn't finished being stunned, but when he saw Bi Hua getting ferocious again, he ran away immediately.

Chang Yuan glanced at him a few times, then turned his head to see Bi Hua quickly cut off a long hair, then continued to volley and blindly cut the air, and went back.

Chang Yuan came back earlier than the pheasant essence, so when the pheasant essence arrived, Ye Simian had already called the early rising mistress to boil water, prepare food and tidy up the room for him.

The pheasant essence slept all day.

At night, he continued to send messages after being fed.

One night, another night.

When the letter was delivered, Ye Simian told him that it was all right and gave him some silver taels, but Pheasant Jing hesitated and thought for a while, and made a gesture to go back to the mountains, saying, "The world is so dangerous."

Ye Simian smiled when she heard this, but saw the pheasant spirit running back and squeaked: "Of course, if you don't have any dangerous things to ask for my help in the future, and it's purely because you have more money to support me, then I'd be more than happy to stay here and do nothing. A world that is not dangerous." After speaking, he ran away quickly.

So at dawn, Ye Simian returned the same way.

Two days later, Ji Wenyu made a detour.

Half a month later, when Ji Wenyu finally rushed to Xiao County under heavy watchful eyes, Ye Simian already knew Li Chengming's situation from Chang Yuan's eyes: he was covered in scars and was dying.

It is said that prison guards were often ordered to torture him severely. Li Chengming was very stubborn and always gritted his teeth.Therefore, the punishment he received was always heavy, and he was whipped again and again, and thrown back into the cell again and again.After the jailer left, he occasionally fell into a coma, murmured something in a low voice, and occasionally woke up. He just nestled in the damp straw pile, facing the little light outside, and said: "Stay here again, it will be soon, it must be soon." It's..."

Occasionally he would reach out, as if trying to catch those broken lights.

But there is no light in this remote place.It's just a few small lights in the distance, or the torches fired by the jailer during his inspection, those far away places, just a little afterglow that was accidentally missed.

"It will be here soon," he said.

"It won't be permanent..." he said.

Talking to himself again and again, he was always looking for a bit of slanting afterglow, hoping to catch something.But the truth is, their area is so dark and closed, like an unknown crevice in a corner, full of coldness and despair.

He waited day after day, and finally waited for Ji Wenyu's arrival.So when he was interrogated, he finally laughed.

Chang Yuan also smiled after seeing that smile, and went back to report the news for the last time, and then watched Ye Simian summarize Li Chengming's information, record all the information from the acquaintance to the present, and check it again.After the records were sorted out, he followed Ji Wenyu, who was an imperial envoy, to the court at the end, and attended the trial as an attendant.

So, in a hall similar to that of Cangxi County, a Ji Qin envoy was sitting, listening to a Qiu Zhifu, and a master was holding a pen in the corner to record the speeches in the hall, and Ye Simian was standing next to the master, helping out when needed. It grinds ink, or blows ink on paper.

Below, Li Chengming was brought up as a prisoner.The charge of beheading already made him lose the special treatment and could only kneel.

According to the procedure, Ji Wenyu first asked, "Who is in the hall?"

Li Chengming replied: "The top three in the palace examination are the same Jinshi, the current magistrate of Xiao County, Li Chengming."

After hearing this, Qiu Zhifu frowned, deeply feeling that criminals are not worthy of fame, but because of the sudden arrival of Ji Wenyu, he temporarily suppressed the words.

Ji Wenyu asked again: "What did you commit?"

After a moment of silence, Li Chengming looked directly at him and said, "I have never committed any crime!"

Prefect Qiu rushed to make a decision: "Bold!"

Ji Wenyu tried to stop him, but Qiu Zhifu then directly pointed at Li Chengming and discussed his crime: "Two months ago, the river in Xiao County rose. The criminal Li Chengming watched it and talked about the necessity of repairing the river. However, according to what he said, the merchants were widely recruited, and materials were collected with the promise of tax cuts and plaques. At that time, everyone thought that this move was beneficial to the people!" As he said, he patted the gavel and sighed, "I think so!"

The voice was so passionate, Ji Wenyu saw that Zhifu Qiu was still so excited at his age, so he patted Zhifu Qiu, signaling him to calm down a bit and not rush to speak.He came here specially for this purpose, and he will definitely try his best to do a good job in this matter.

And just as Ji Wenyu reassured Qiu Zhifu not to be too excited, Li Chengming in the hall answered immediately: "But who knows that more than half of the funds have been raised, but there are rumors in the market that the lower official proposed this matter not to prevent floods, but to charge a sum of money. The silver taels of households and merchants are used to gain a reputation for their unworthy descendants before their family property is ruined, so as to use the good name to gain official positions: the so-called first gain a good name and then donate to officials—"

Prefect Qiu couldn't help sneering and getting angry, almost wanting to hit the gavel again.

"How ridiculous!"

Li Chengming pointed to the defense in the hall: "How contemptuous of Tianwei! How contemptuous of the world's students! If anyone in the world wants to donate officials for profit, he will be regarded as an evildoer of the previous dynasty! This dynasty is clear and bright, and today it is high-level, how can such absurd things happen? But Some people just listen and believe!"

Ji Wenyu frowned.

Li Chengming turned and pointed directly at the magistrate: "Prefect Qiu! When Cai Fu denied it that day, you beat him into a trick and sent him into exile! Today, when the official denies it, you will interrupt him many times and charge him directly! Let me ask you, do you really want to go into exile?" After checking the truth, I still want to take the opportunity to remove the subordinate officials and annex the property of the Cai Mansion to make up for your misappropriation of public funds!"

"You!" Qiu Zhifu said anxiously, and Ji Wenyu held down his words afterwards.

Ji Wenyu said: "Do you think that Zhifu Qiu hastily settled the case and slandered your crimes in order to fill the hole in his account after embezzling public funds?"

Li Chengming said frankly: "Last year, due to the flood in Xiao County and its surrounding areas, the prefect of Qiu allocated special funds to resettle the victims and deal with the funeral because he failed to prevent and treat the disaster in time. For this reason, the people sent plaques to the Qiu mansion. Now, if the prefect of Qiu If the plaque is not destroyed, the Lord can still find evidence in the Qiu Mansion. If the Magistrate Qiu has already destroyed the plaque, then the Lord can still know what happened last year from the people: the Prefect Qiu is considerate of the people and loves the people like a son. Who doesn’t know? All the people here are full of praise for this! But in order to prevent the disaster that happened here from affecting the old people in the coming year, who knows the origin of the silver taels allocated by the prefect Qiu? Such a large sum of money was not approved by the Ministry of Household Affairs. Next, then, what is its origin?"

Qiu Zhifu's face was pale, dripping with cold sweat, he unconsciously grabbed Ji Wenyu's sleeve.

"It just so happens that the lower official had exchanged arithmetic with Tongnian before the palace examination..." At this point, Li Chengming paused, covered his lips and coughed, and took the opportunity to see Ye Simian smile, "The lower official figured out that the amount of silver taels, the prefect Qiu didn't take it at all." Not out! What's even more ridiculous is that the lower officials even asked about this..."

The magistrate Qiu wanted to grab the gavel, and Ji Wenyu held down his hands, and in the hall, Li Chengming laughed and said: "Therefore, the mansion of the lower official appeared to be unowned for 200 taels, and the lower official became a bribe-seeker." The person—shocking joke!"

The master wrote down the last word at the same time, Ye Simian took the pen from him, and took the words he just wrote to dry.The prefect Qiu in the hall was already trembling behind his words, Ji Wenyu looked at him, but before he could say anything, he explained: "The matter was urgent at that time, I'm going to be an official..."

Ji Wenyu understood this and raised her hand.Someone came to hold up Qiu Zhifu.

"...Take it to the bedroom in the back hall, and keep it under strict supervision." After hesitating for a moment, Ji Wenyu still made room for Qiu Zhifu's age and the particularity of this matter.

Ye Simian also put this sentence on the paper before the master wrote, and then he filled in the real last sentence:

"The lower officials have never framed anyone!"

Looking up, Ye Simian saw that Qiu Zhifu was being taken down, while Li Chengming was being helped up.

"The lower officials believe that the crimes suffered this time are due to the fact that everyone is too sensitive to corruption, and the grass and trees are all soldiers." Li Chengming said, "If there is no honest injustice in the world, we must revisit this matter with death and revise the rules. Let many matters have a basis, procedures, guidelines, and methods for thorough investigation, instead of just following the sentence of "corrupt and extorting bribes, beheaded"—this will never make the world clear!"

Ji Wenyu: "Oh?"

"Corruption and bribery are based on greed for property and improper behavior. If we only use the result as high pressure and do not prevent it from the beginning, then what we can guard against is only some timid people, and we cannot fundamentally Change the minds of those who are corrupt and accept bribes, let alone let some people who have no greed at all stick to their hearts——

Let me ask, since he dares to embezzle and accept bribes, who would be as cowardly as a mouse?Even if you are really timid, who would regard a needle or a handkerchief as bribery?And who would be afraid of that?Who—will collect property from small to large because of this, until it gets out of hand at the end? "Li Chengming said, "We need, cough, to change the minds of colleagues from the very beginning, so that colleagues feel that every plant and tree are unjust gains. Grab everything and change everyone's mind from top to bottom.Only in this way can the entire imperial court be cleared up, and for this future, the officials are willing to give everything!The military officer fought to the death, the civil servant died to remonstrate, Mr. Ji, you have been a civil servant, and you have been favored by Long En many times, do you have the same idea? ! "

Ji Wenyu lowered his eyes to think deeply, while Ye Simian recorded the speech, then wrote down the pen, and handed over the medicine: "Speak slowly, pay attention to your body."

With a weak smile, Li Chengming wanted to say something, but due to his physical injury, he still responded in a low voice: "Yes."

More words have become redundant in front of the statement just now.What he has to say is enough.

So, the good medicine tasted bitter, and after taking a bowl of medicine, Li Chengming fell asleep with the rock sugar that Ye Simian bought by chance.

But Ji Wenyu remained silent for a long time, and finally, after reviewing and dealing with follow-up trivial matters, he brought Qiu Zhifu and Li Chengming into Beijing together.

Ye Simian, as one of the witnesses, must also go with him—especially after Li Chengming said frankly that he improved his arithmetic ability from Ye Simian.
