Southerners

"Really?" Hearing Qi Luqian's words, Song Zhi almost thought that she had heard it wrong, "Can you report...is it really useful?"

"Will Yu Shitai think that I have slandered him, or is afraid of the power of the minister, so he will not punish him?"

Qi Luqian said righteously: "Zi Lan, the duty of Yushitai is to picket the good and evil of officials and political gains and losses. If they are afraid of this and that, why is there any need for Yushitai?"

"Just say, are you willing to come with me?"

"Go!" Song Zhi said firmly, "Of course!"

Qi Luqian nodded solemnly: "So, let's set off now."

Yushitai and Sichengfang are on the same street, but Yushitai is on the west side of Wenmingmen Street, while Sichengfang is on the east side, and Yushitai is closer to Wenmingmen. Rely on civilized use of libraries.

Qi Luqian's friend, named He Chunshan, is a seventh-rank supervisory censor, even though his rank is not high, no one dares to offend him easily.He Chunshan's family lived in Qingmingfang, and he was working in Yushitai, so Qi Luqian took Song Zhi directly to Yushitai and asked to see He Yushi.

Qi Luqian was acquainted with He Yushi, and soon after he reported his name, someone came and took the two of them in.

He Yushi looked less than thirty, very young, with tightly pursed lips, he looked very serious, but he was not arrogant, and treated Qi Luqian very affectionately.

"Brother Boheng came here today, what are you talking about?" He Yushi ordered someone to serve tea to the two of them, and He Yushi asked while the three were drinking tea.

Qi Luqian smiled and said, "Old He, there is no rush, let me introduce you first."

"This is Mr. Song Zilan Song."

Qi Luqian signaled to Song Zhi again: "This is He Chunshan, Lord He Yushi."

Qi Luqian smiled and said, "Since you two are both my friends, if you exchange names today, you are considered friends."

He Yushi cupped his hands to Song Zhi: "Mr. Song, I have long admired you."

Song Zhi smiled and said, "Master Yu Shi is too polite."

After finishing the formalities, Qi Luqian didn't hesitate, and said straight to the point: "Old He, I came to see you today, and I do have something to ask for your help."

"please say."

Qi Luqian immediately told Song Zhi and him about the Jiaofang Division, including how Bai Man'er was forced by the servant of the household department and how he was injured.

He Yushi was indeed a very upright person, his eyes were so angry that he almost didn't shoot the case.

"Okay, okay! I know it. I will never tolerate this matter. I must report it to the court and let your majesty come down to punish them!"

Song Zhi hurriedly stood up and bowed to He Yushi: "Thank you, Mr. Yushi!"

He Yushi supported Song Zhi: "Mr. Song, what is this? Impeaching all internal and external officials is my duty. Mr. Song does not need to be polite."

"It's just that there are more than one servants from the household department. I don't know which one Mr. Song is talking about?"

Song Zhi thought about it for a while, and said, "Man'er said that the servant's surname is Yu."

He Yushi nodded: "I know, I will draw up a report and submit it to His Majesty tomorrow morning. You wait for my news."

With He Chunshan's guarantee, Song Zhi felt a little relieved and helped Song Zhi solve her worries. Qi Luqian was very happy in his heart. The two of them thanked He Yushi a thousand times, and Qi Luqian also promised to invite He Yushi to dinner in the future. The two people came out from Yushitai.

"Zi Lan, don't worry, Lao He has always been reliable in his work. He said that if there is no problem, there will be no problem. The grievances of Bai Man'er and the Jiaofang Secretary finally have room to avenge."

"Zi Lan?" Seeing that Song Zhi didn't respond, Qi Luqian tilted his head, but saw that he was still frowning, "Why are you so sad?"

Song Zhi reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled: "I always feel that things are too smooth...I'm afraid it won't be so simple and successful."

Qi Luqian had a big heart, and patted Song Zhi on the shoulder: "What are you thinking about, He Yushi said to reassure you, he is an outspoken supervisor, and the supervisor's job is to offend others. I'm afraid, I won't be able to do it long ago."

Song Zhixin said the same, so she had no choice but to put her heart in her stomach and quietly wait for He Chunshan's news.

"Compared to this, is Zilan still short of money? If not, I'll find a way to introduce you to a job. What do you think?"

In addition to the private money Qi Luqian gave him, Bai Man'er already had money for medicine, but Song Zhi was already poor and owed foreign debts, so how could he not be short of money? Please don't bother him.

Qi Luqian saw what Song Zhi was thinking, and said with a smile, "I lent you the medicine money, and you have to pay it back. If you don't find a job, how can you pay it back?"

Song Zhi couldn't refuse any more, just when she wanted to make a deep bow to Qi Luqian, Qi Luqian quickly stopped her: "You are not born with me if you are like this. , but I can’t afford this great gift from you, otherwise people would think I did something to you.”

Qi Luqian didn't speak properly and looked weird, Song Zhi couldn't help being amused by him: "Sooner or later, Brother Boheng will rise to the top and become the pillar of the country."

Qi Luqian laughed: "Thank you for your kind words."

Afterwards, Qi Luqian found a place specializing in calligraphy and painting, and stuffed Song Zhi in. Although the salary was not much, it was better than setting up a stall by himself, and he could barely make ends meet.

On the eighth day of the lunar new year, Song Zhi didn't wait for the news of He Chunshan, but first waited for the news from the court. He promoted Huo Sun to be the Prime Minister of Zhongshu, and sent the Prime Minister of the Right, Weng Ji, as the left-behind, still working with the Privy Council.This means that Heli Huosun has completely won the trust of the ancestors, and the prince's plan is also proceeding in an orderly manner.

The news did not come for a long time, and the court did not issue a decree to punish Yu Shilang and rectify the Jiaofang Secretary. Song Zhi felt more and more uneasy in her heart, and waited patiently for a few days. In mid-April, Song Zhi received Qi Luqian's urgent letter said that there was a change in the impeachment of Yushi and Jiaofangsi, and Song Zhi was asked to discuss it in detail.

When Song Zhi saw the letter, her eyelids twitched and she felt bad.

When Song Zhi rushed to Qi Luqian's house in a hurry, he found that He Chunshan was there, and the expressions of the two were very serious. Qi Luqian saw Song Zhi coming in, and he was not polite:

"Zi Lan, sit down and talk."

Before Song Zhi could sit down, He Yushi had already stood up, lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, my husband entrusted me with the matter... I owed my husband's trust and failed."

The uneasy premonition in Song Zhi's heart really came true, and he pushed He Yushi back on the chair and sat down: "Master Yushi, can you tell me in detail?"

He Chunshan nodded: "That day I drew up a report and wanted to hand it in, but my superior pressed me, saying that I had no evidence and no evidence, and that it was a felony to bite a court minister at will, so I had no choice but to go to find evidence in private. All the singers and singers were bitten to death for not telling the truth, and accused me of slandering their innocence."

"I had no choice but to find Shilang Yu's mansion, but I didn't even see Shilang Yu himself, so I was kicked out by his wife. His wife refused to admit that Shilang Yu bullied the women, let alone that he beat Baiman Son, they are working together from top to bottom in the whole house, and they don't pay attention to me, the supervisory censor, at all."

Qi Luqian said: "He is not afraid that you will read his book?"

He Chunshan smiled wryly: "I heard that this Minister Yu is related to the former empress's mother's family, the Hongjira clan."

Speaking of this Hongjishi family, it's nothing special.In the early years, Texue Chan and his son Chen Cong □□ made great contributions in conquests, and they were given the title of uncle of the country, and they were named kings, so as to unify their tribes. Endless."

Qi Luqian frowned: "He is just a servant, how can he be related to the Hongji Sect?"

He Chunshan said: "You don't know, the Empress had a biological sister who was Lord An Tong's mother. When she married Lord An Tong's father, Ba Tulu, there was a servant girl by her side, and she also married out later. This servant girl gave birth to a daughter, who is the first wife of Yu Shilang."

Qi Luqian: "..."

Song Zhi: "So, Man'er should be bullied by them for nothing?"

He Chunshan: "No, you can't say that. It's not the first empress's own sister, but just a servant girl. I will never let them get away with it."

Seeing the expressions of the two, He Chunshan said: "I came to see you today, not to complain about impeachment. I just want you to think of a way and produce stronger evidence. The one who was beaten by Mrs. Yu Shilang It would be even better if she could come forward and accuse Jiao Fangsi of being dark and corrupt."

Hearing this, Song Zhi frowned. The incident happened because of Bai Man'er, and it wasn't too much for He Chunshan to mention her to testify. It's just that Bai Man'er was a girl with an injury on her face, so she was asked to come. The accusation is extremely bad for her reputation, and it is easy for Bai Man'er to recall the experience of those few days, which will only increase her sadness.

He Chunshan understood Song Zhi's concerns, so he said, "You can go back and think about it again, or you can ask his mother what she thinks, and it won't be too late to reply."

Song Zhi returned to Xingshun Hutong, and first told Bai Azhu about it, but Bai Azhu strongly objected when she heard about it, and did not listen to Song Zhi's persuasion at all.

"Man'er is young and has no family yet. If you let her come forward to identify her, what will happen to Man'er in the future? Who else would want her?"

"Aunt Bai, Man'er can't be bullied for nothing..."

"Brother Lang! Don't talk about this anymore. Man'er is my daughter. As a mother, do I want to see her being bullied for nothing? But that person is related to the former queen. Even if you let Man'er not want her They may not be able to convict them if they are identified by their reputation!"

"...What's more, for a girl's family, what is more important than fame, this is her life's work!"

Bai Man'er heard the movement in her boudoir, reluctantly got down and walked over, leaning on the wall, looked at the two, and asked softly, "Brother Lang, what are you talking to mother about?"

Bai Azhu hurriedly wiped away the tears on his face, pulled out a smiling face, and hurried forward to embrace Bai Man'er in his arms: "Man'er, why did you come out? Be good, go back and lie down."

Bai Man'er shook his head: "It's stuffy in the room and I want to breathe. Didn't the doctor also tell me to move more?"

Bai Azhu was blocked by her and was speechless.

Bai Man'er was always smart, seeing the tears on her mother's face and Song Zhi's expression, she knew that something must be wrong.

"Mother, what are you talking about, why didn't you tell Man'er?"

"I didn't say anything!" Bai Azhu said hurriedly, the volume was so loud that Bai Man'er was startled, she quickly slowed down her voice, "It's not a big deal, Man'er don't worry."

Bai Man'er raised her eyes, and looked at Song Zhi timidly, there was a questioning color in her dark eyes.

Seeing her like this, Song Zhi was even more heartbroken.Bai Man'er was originally lively, cute and very active, always talking in a bluff, but now she speaks softly, but she is still well-behaved, even more sensible than before, which makes people feel distressed.

Bai Azhu patted Bai Man'er's head: "Mother will take you for a walk in the yard, okay?"

Bai Man'er looked at Song Zhi and nodded.

At this time, Bai Azhu also turned his head to look at Song Zhi, and said in a low voice: "Brother Lan, Aunt Bai knows that you are doing it for Man'er, but you are a man and don't understand girls, so don't mention it anymore .”

"...Aunt Bai is useless, so you don't have to rush about it anymore."
