Chapter 379

"Masters, you can leave now."

"You gentlemen?"

"Huh? What's the matter?"

"You can leave now."

"Oh."

".?"

The officials who came to report felt speechless when they saw the group of prime ministers who were still sitting at the poker table fighting.

Big brothers, are you going or not going!

He could only stand aside obediently.

"Haha. Just wait for your little Batiao."

Excitedly, Wang Anshi brought the eight of Sima Guang's cards in front of him, and then turned his cards down, "It will be right."

Sima Guang slapped his forehead in frustration, "It's really hard to guard against!"

Pointing to Wang Anshi again, he said, "You old boy, you play mahjong, and you also specialize in playing such weird patterns."

Fu Bi, who was standing on the sidelines watching the battle, shook his head and said, "You see he hasn't fought a single general, so he should take precautions."

Sima Guang said: "Who would have thought that he could play this kind of cards."

"Soldiers who, deception also."

Wang Anshi laughed, got up hastily, came to a wooden board next to him, wrote the number at the end of the line with his name, and after doing some calculations, he turned around and said to Sima Guang: "Junshi, you Now I'm 32 times behind, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up."

Sima Guang snorted, "The fight is still going on, what are you in a hurry for?"

Lu Gong said: "I'm afraid it won't last long."

Sima Guang didn't want to lose to Wang Anshi, so he asked the official who came to inform him, "Should I go now?"

The official said awkwardly: "I'm not in a hurry to be an official."

Sima Guang said: "Let's play the last round. How about it?"

Wang Anshi hehe said, "I have no objection."

Fu Bi nodded and said, "Okay, the last round must have an end."

Xu Zun, who was at the side, walked up to the official and asked, "Are we the only ones who can leave?"

The official said: "All of them have been released."

Xu Zun breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't ask any more questions.

No one asked him either.

The reason why they can play mahjong with peace of mind is because they have calculated the result.

An hour later.

This group of prime ministers came out of the small courtyard with still unfinished business.

I have to say that the past few days have been a good experience for them. Whether they like it or not, no one can avoid the other anyway. They have to face each other every day, and there is also a poker table for them to understand their grievances.

I'm in a good mood.

Especially Wang Anshi, in this long mahjong marathon competition, he had the last laugh. Sima Guang made a desperate fight, but failed. Instead, he was overtaken by Fu Bi and placed third.

"Why did you come out at this time?"

Wen Yanbo, who was waiting at the door, had pale hair that was about to turn black.

Fu Bi and Sima Guang looked at each other awkwardly.

"I have something to do, I'm delayed." Fu Bi smiled awkwardly.

Wen Yanbo thought it was a formality problem, but he never expected that this group of people were playing mahjong in the house, otherwise, they would definitely go crazy.

I report outside every day. After busy work, you sit inside chatting, playing mahjong, drinking and discussing paintings. If I knew this, I would go in and forget it.

Lu Huiqing over there also greeted her, "Teacher."

"Go back and talk."

Wang Anshi bowed his hands to Fu Bi and others again, then got into the carriage with Lu Huiqing and left.

Xu Zun and Zhao Bian also left one after another.

Only Fu Bi, Wen Yanbo, Sima Guang, and Lu Gong were left.

Fu Bi asked Wen Yanbo, "What did the officials say?"

Wen Yanbo said: "In the end, it was Zeng Mingzhong who came forward and defined the case as an academic dispute. Only in this way can the turmoil be calmed down."

Lu Gong asked: "That is to say, they still don't recognize the law of the rule of law?"

Wen Yanbo shook his head, "They just emphasize that speech should not be punished, but they still think that the rule of law is fallacy."

Sima Guang couldn't help frowning and said, "Then this matter is not over yet."

Wen Yanbo nodded and said, "Zhang San must explain this clearly."

Sima Guang sighed heavily, "If we had known this, we would not have come out."

But Fu Bi said: "Zhang San really still owes a lesson!"

Sima Guang looked at Fu Bi, "What does Mr. Fu say?"

Fu Bi said: "Do you still remember which knowledge Zhang San placed on the opposite side of the rule of law?"

"The law of the Legalists." Wen Yanbo said.

Fu Bi nodded and said: "But in fact, he explained in the first class that the current law is Confucianism, not legalist law, but he used Legalist law as an example on many issues, although Confucianism Law has also been mentioned a lot, but it is far inferior to the law of the Legalists."

Sima Guang smiled wryly and said, "How can the dispute of learning be settled clearly?"

Fu Bi said: "But Zhang San must explain clearly, otherwise, what happened today will definitely happen again."

Cao family.

"Daddy!"

Cao Dongdong, with a bruised nose and swollen face, stood tremblingly in front of Cao Ping, with fear in his panda eyes.

I have to say that Zhang Fei's tricks are quite effective. Seeing his son being beaten like this, Cao Ping couldn't help but get angry and said, "Are they still using torture on you?"

Cao Dongdong rolled his eyes and said, "It was the boy who resisted first, because the boy was wronged."

Of course Cao Ping knew that his son was wronged, otherwise, he wouldn't be so annoyed, and asked again: "Then do you know who you are troubled by?"

Now he is very clear that Cao Dongdong was pulled in to accompany Zhang Fei nine times out of ten. In fact, he had vaguely guessed that there might be something tricky between the emperor and Zhang Fei.

Because of the previous incident with the police station, Zhao Xu was already cooperating with Zhang Fei.

Cao Dongdong immediately said: "My child knows, Zhang San! All of this is caused by Zhang San, and my child is all caused by him."

Cao Ping asked again: "Then what are you going to do?"

Cao Dongdong raised his mouth and said, "It doesn't matter, my child."

Cao Ping was startled and said angrily, "It doesn't matter?"

Cao Dongdong said with a look of disdain: "Only Zhang San's method of causing trouble is much worse than that of the boy. Sooner or later the boy will be involved and go back. We won't lose money. Daddy can let it go!"

Snapped!

"Ouch!"

Alas. No matter how clever this method is, I can't hold back myself and want to die!

You can see that Zhang Fei is different. When he got home, he kept pretending to be pitiful. Gao Wenyin, Xiao Tao, and Li Si were all busy, helping him bathe and changing clothes.

It's a godlike treatment.

"Be gentle, ouch. It hurts me to death!"

"How could they beat you like this."

Gao Wenyin helped Zhang Fei rub the medicinal wine lightly, and from time to time a teardrop the size of a pearl fell from her watery almond eyes.

Xu Zhiqian, who had been standing silently behind her, finally couldn't help it anymore, and hummed softly: "Sister Gao, don't take pity on this fellow, I'm afraid he must have found someone to beat him himself."

Now, of course, she also guessed the secret affair between Zhao Xu and Zhang Fei, using words to deal with words.

You say that speech is a crime, so let's expand it.

Gao Wenyin gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and asked curiously, "Why did Sanlang ask someone to beat him?"

"He." Xu Zhiqian snorted, "Ask him yourself."

Zhang Fei said awkwardly: "Madam, don't take it seriously, Zhiqian was joking, if it wasn't for my mouth injury, I would have laughed out loud."

Gao Wenyin was not stupid either, she glanced at Zhang Fei, then at Xu Zhiqian, and stood up: "I'll go and iron the veil first, and I'll apply it to you later."

With that said, she went out with the basin in hand.

After Gao Wenyin went out, Zhang Fei gently patted the side of the bed, "Zhiqian, come and sit down."

"Humph!"

Xu Zhiqian turned her face to the side.

Zhang Fei sat up directly and pulled her to the side of the bed.

"what are you doing?"

Xu Zhiqian raised her hand and broke free, but she did not stand up.

"I know that I've worried you these days, but it's really not that I want to hide it from you."

"Hmph! Could it be that you didn't intend to hide it?"

"Eh, I still do."

Zhang Fei hastily added: "But if you give me another chance, I won't tell you."

Xu Zhiqian asked in surprise, "Why?"

Zhang Fei said: "Because I don't want my father-in-law's fame to be ruined in my hands."

Xu Zhiqian looked at Zhang Fei suspiciously.

Zhang Fei said: "It's not that I don't trust you, and it's not that I deliberately want to make you worry. It's just that this kind of thing is not an upright thing. If you don't know, you will be wronged and you will be implicated. But if you know, you become accomplices.

I am very clear about the characters of your father and daughter. If some things are known to you, you may feel guilty for the rest of your life. "

He never told Xu Zun about the secret dealings between him and Zhao Xu, and what he did in private, because Xu Zun's reputation was accumulated from decades of incorruptibility. This is not easy, how could he have the heart to put some stains on it.

After hearing this, Xu Zhiqian's expression softened a lot, "Since you know, why do you still do these things?"

Zhang Fei smiled wryly, "Otherwise, what can I do?"

Xu Zhiqian was extremely annoyed again: "Actually, this matter is not your fault at all. It is those people who can't argue with you, so they use this method to deal with you."

Zhang Fei never gets angry about such things, anyway, he will take revenge sooner or later, and said with a smile: "You don't blame me?"

Xu Zhiqian pouted, and asked again: "What's the matter with your injury?"

Zhang Fei said: "I told Ya Nei to beat them."

Xu Zhiqian was surprised and said, "You really found someone to beat you?"

Zhang Fei nodded.

Xu Zhiqian said, "Why did you do this?"

Zhang Fei sneered and said, "I'll help you vent your anger."

Xu Zhiqian was both moved and angry when she heard it, and said excitedly: "This wrong has its own merit, and the debt has its own owner. Even if I want to vent my anger, I won't look for you. Am I such a person who can't tell right from wrong? Next time Don't be so stupid, bah, there won't be a next time."

Zhang Fei smiled and nodded, hugging Xu Zhiqian into his arms, staring at those delicate red lips, he couldn't help but lower his head.!

Suddenly heard Qingmei's joyful voice outside, "Master is back."

Xu Zhiqian jumped out of bed like lightning, tidied her clothes guiltily, and gave Zhang Fei a hard look, who was full of frustration.

creak.

The door opened and Xu Zun walked in.

"Father-in-law."

"Lie down quickly."

Xu Zun hurriedly stopped Zhang Fei who was about to get out of bed, walked over, and asked incredulously, "They tortured you?"

Zhang Fei glanced at Xu Zhiqian, "No."

Xu Zun asked curiously, "Then your injury?"

Zhang Fei hesitated to speak, "It's because."

Xu Zhiqian kept winking at him, as if saying, don't say it's because of me.

Zhang Fei said truthfully: "I can find someone to beat me myself."

"what?"

Xu Zun was immediately dumbfounded.

Zhang Fei said embarrassingly: "This act has to be done in full!"

When he came out, there were quite a few people staring at him. If you saw them coming out chatting and laughing, then anyone could guess that the emperor intended to protect him.

Xu Zun just smiled and didn't make a sound.

Zhang Fei said again: "I'm sorry, father-in-law, I'm sorry for this matter!"

Xu Zun raised his hand, "The old man knows, you don't want to ruin my reputation."

Zhang Fei said in astonishment: "My father-in-law knows!"

"You are so careful, how can you hide it from me." After speaking, Xu Zun sighed, "So... I never ask about these things."

He is also very principled. Knowing some things will indeed make him very difficult to do.

He never blamed Zhang Fei, but sometimes, he thought that his principles made him unable to provide Zhang Fei with much help.

Xu Zun said again: "But this matter may not be over yet!"

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "But it is difficult for them to offend me with words at present. This is very important to me."

Xu Zun nodded slightly: "Then what are you going to do?"

Zhang Fei said: "Take up the lesson of Confucianism."
