Chapter 127: Review
Chapter 127 Reexamination
Yes, Tianmu is afraid of fire...
and it is the one that is very scared.
When you see the fire candle, stay far away.
In the last life, before she died, she clearly heard the silly bird screaming anxiously, trying to rush into the fire again and again...
Such an ugly bird, but always cherishes its feathers very much. I wonder if it was burned by the fire at that time?
And she only reacted now.
The cold wind swept into the gallery, Xu Mingyi held the heavy bird in his arms, only to feel the sudden warmth in his heart.
Looking down at the bird who hid her head between her arms and didn't dare to move, she smiled with emotion and said in a low voice: "It's not in vain for my kindness to nurture you. Conscience..."
said, took the other hand and smoothed the big bird's head, and said: "It's just such a stupid thing, and I can't do it again. It is not easy for Wu Chao to raise you up so hard."
I don't know if he understands it, and buried his head deeper.
Xu Mingyi changed from the simple and rudeness of the past, and took the big bird back to the room with great patience.
Let Akui take beef jerky again.
heard the three words "beef jerky", Tianmu jumped out of Xu Mingyi's arms boldly, and obediently squatted in front of her waiting to be fed.
……
In the unrest brought about by this fire, the sky gradually brightened.
Above the early morning, the officials had different opinions on the incident of Fengtian Temple being struck by lightning last night.
Someone seriously proposed a follow-up repair.
Some people think that this matter is ominous, and it is not appropriate to rush to repair it for the time being.
There were also a few more senior civil servants who were very excited about this. They shouted that this was a big evil, and there was no lack of words that made Qingming imply a crime.
Young ministers, although they do not want to agree with this statement, but they dare not speak out rashly.
Many of the rules and statements handed down by our ancestors cannot be refuted in a few words.
At the end, all the officials were waiting for the first assistant Xia Tingzhen to speak.
"Weichen believes that the top priority at the moment is to stabilize people's hearts, so as not to cause greater turmoil under public opinion." Xia Tingzhen said.
The ministers looked at each other.
What does Xia Shoufu’s ambiguous words mean?
Stable people’s hearts are naturally the most important thing, but what is the stabilizing method?
Should the emperor write an edict to sue the world, or some other way?
When a minister wanted to ask the last sentence, he just listened to Emperor Qingming’s words: "Xia Aiqing's words are reasonable, and I think so."
The expression of the person on the dragon chair is always calm, and the tone of speech at this time does not fluctuate in the slightest.
The ministers have their own guesses.
How do you feel that your Majesty doesn’t seem to care much about this matter?
Or to say-Your Majesty and Xia Shoufu have discussed a feasible way to deal with it?
But these speculations did not get a definite answer until the resignation of the court, and only the sentence of Emperor Qingming—"the court will discuss again tomorrow morning."
"Lightning strikes at the Fengtian Temple is a major event, and it is normal for your Majesty to not make a decision at the time... Since ancient times, the sin of self-criticism has not been so easy to write..."
"But the longer it is, the more troublesome it becomes."
Out of the Meridian Gate, the worried officials discussed a few words in a low voice.
Someone also took a few steps to catch up with Xia Tingzhen, deliberately inquiring about one or two.
After all, Xia Shoufu is the one who knows the emperor’s thoughts best, and maybe it’s hard to say that he has already made a decision with the emperor secretly.
Listening to the tentative words of colleagues, Xia Tingzhen sneered in her heart.
This time, he was really not sure what the emperor meant.
In the main courtyard of the Xia Mansion, Mrs. Xia, Mrs. Xue, paced back and forth in the hall with anxious heart.
"Madam, the master is back."
The maid’s voice made Xue's expression straightforward and hurriedly greeted him.
Xia Tingzhen, who had just entered the courtyard, couldn't help frowning when her old wife, who had always been calm, actually walked down the stone steps.
Is this something wrong?
"Master, you are back!"
At this time, she was close, and Xia Tingzhen could see her face pale.
In older people, even if they just fail to rest overnight, the difference in complexion is immediately revealed.
Xia Tingzhen said, "What happened at home?" Before he could ask, Xue family asked anxiously: "Master...I heard that Fengtian Temple was struck by lightning last night. Is this true?!"
Xia Tingzhen's eyebrows frowned and tightened.
"Are you so upset about this?"
When did his wife become a long-tongued woman who refused to sleep for the sake of watching some excitement?
"Master knows something, it's not that simple!"
Indirectly, Xue's face became more tense for a while, and there was a trace of panic in his eyes: "Yesterday afternoon, a Taoist came to the door..."
She told her husband what happened yesterday and what the Taoist said.
Xia Tingzhen's expression changed.
A Taoist priest has calculated that something will happen to the Fengtian Temple last night? !
And frankly, is it caused by the so-called evil spirit in Han's nursery?
"For such an important matter, why don't you get people into the palace earlier to tell me?" Xia Tingzhen asked in a cold voice with anger hidden in her eyes.
Xue's face condensed.
"...How did I know that the master would not return all night, and where did I want to be so effective?"
And it's so effective that people can't ignore it!
What's more, something happened at this time, and the master knew that it was important-but if nothing happened in the Fengtian Temple last night, she rashly sent people into the palace to spread the word, and the master was afraid that he would blame her for not knowing the severity when he turned back. It is also necessary to specifically ask people to enter the palace to inform him, and it is the matter of Han'er, not afraid of attracting people's attention.
She has seen through these two different faces of men.
Xia Tingzhen also knew that it was meaningless to care about these at this time, and just said casually. At this time, she immediately asked: "Does Han'er know about this?"
Today should be the day when the second son rests——
"I never told Han'er yesterday..."
Xue said anxiously: "Besides, someone from the Beijing government suddenly came. He wants to review Xu Ying's case one day earlier, saying that Xu Ying claims to have some new clues—"
Early review?
Xia Tingzhen’s eyes changed: "Han'er agrees?"
The five-day review period is only the latest deadline, and early review is not without precedent, but on the premise of insufficient evidence, the consent of the defendant must be obtained before the trial can be opened in advance.
"Han'er's temperament, do you not know the master? The most magnanimous and fearless, I just went with the officials!"
Xue said: "I don’t worry about anything before, but I just want to go to Heaven Palace——"
Speaking of this, she looked at her husband eagerly.
This matter is really too weird, it makes people feel scared how to think.
No matter who is behind the scenes, she will not panic like this, but the point is that at the moment...the other party may not be a "person"!
Who has the ability to attract Tianlei? !
An opponent like this, just ask who can stand it!
ah ah ah, I updated it with the lid of the pot. I just came back from the country today. I didn't dare to rest for a minute. I immediately coded it. It was too late, but who knew that the computer charger was missing.
Sorry, sorry, please forgive me.
And, thank you for your reward and monthly pass, bow.
