The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 52
[Chapter 52: First place in proofreading]
This is indeed a good thing, but when it comes from Wu Yi’s mouth, it always makes people feel a little strange.
Fang Xiu looked at him: “What on earth are you going to say?”
“For brother”
“Speak well.”
“Ahem”
Wu Yi smiled awkwardly, and then said seriously: “I mean, you should also do it for yourself I thought about
these words for the sake of my future. Others are not willing to say it for fear of offending others. If Shibo has said it, you will definitely not want to listen, so I have to say it.
If you think about it carefully, we have been brothers for so many years, and I will harm you. If
you continue to be like this, who will be able to protect you in the future? Now there is Shibo. What should you do if Shibo is gone? “
As a playboy, you can talk to each other on weekdays. There are not many people there, Fang Xiu is the only one.
The brotherhood for many years was extraordinary. Now that he had repented and was on the right track, he had to help him no matter what. He couldn’t just watch him go further and further down the wrong path.
He thought that what he said was sincere, but he saw that Fang Xiu looked unconcerned.
So, he continued to persuade: “Let me tell you that for this review, you are the only one who has submitted your papers in advance. If His Majesty finds out about it, he will be furious and strip you of your qualifications to be a knight. How will you deal with yourself in the future?”
He was talking enthusiastically. , but saw a young man in green hurriedly rushed into the courtyard, shouting: “Master, the imperial envoy has come to the palace, and it is the same one from last time!”
The imperial envoy
Wu Yi’s face changed, he glanced at Fang Xiu, and felt He said: It can’t be such a coincidence.
He just said that His Majesty would cut off Fang Xiu’s qualification to seize the title, and then the imperial edict came. Could it be that he had guessed it?
Fang Xiu was also a little confused.
He had just come out of the palace, and before he had rested for a while, he conveyed the decree again.
Moreover, he still sent Eunuch Zhang, who had a quarrel with him, to convey the order. The emperor would not break his word and want to punish himself by beating the imperial envoy, right?
Behind him, Xiu’er’s face was pale, and her little hands tightly grasped Fang Xiu’s clothes, as if she would never see her young master again if she let go.
Fang Xiu calmed himself down, patted Xiu’er’s hand gently with a calm expression, and said comfortingly: “It’s okay.”
Then he hurried out of the yard.
Seeing this scene, Wu Yi hurriedly followed him, wanting to see what happened.
As soon as he stepped into the main hall, he saw the familiar figure with his head wrapped in gauze and his face white and beardless. It was indeed the young eunuch named Zhang Wen.
Different from last time, this time there was a full group of forbidden troops following him, all holding swords and wearing armor, like sculptures, lined up on both sides of the main hall of the Fang family.
When Fang Xiu saw this scene, he couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy.
Could it be that the old emperor really regretted it and wanted to punish himself for beating the imperial envoy?
Wu Yi, who was following behind him, looked even pale.
Can this battle be a trivial matter?
The ridiculous thing about handing in the paper in advance must have reached His Majesty’s ears, which made His Majesty furious.
Oh, what a crow’s mouth I have!
When the young eunuch Zhang Wen saw Fang Xiu, he was even more uneasy than him. He shuddered suddenly and forced out a smile that was uglier than crying.
Wu Yi on the side felt even more bitter when he saw this weird smile.
It seems that my good brother cannot escape today.
In a daze, the young eunuch had opened the imperial edict in his hand and said in a loud voice: “Brother Fang Xiu of Anping will accept the edict.”
Fang Xiu saluted uneasily.
Just listen to him continue to shout at his voice: “The Emperor of Heaven has decreed: Anping’s uncle Fang Xiu, who is knowledgeable and has a good mind, offers tea and horse trading, a strategy to change the land and return it to the people, to relieve the people from hanging upside down, to share the worries of the country, and deeply Because he won my heart, he was given the title of first reviewer, and he was appointed as General Zuozhonglang of the Yulin Guards. He was put on duty in the palace. I admire him
.
Don’t you want to punish someone?
Fang Xiu looked at the imperial decree and was a little confused.
Wu Yi looked shocked, as if he was suffocating.
First in proofreading?
I studied with my father and An Pingbo, and I didn’t know how much hardship I endured, and how much scolding I endured, before I got seventh place on the B list, which was tenth place.
How come he didn’t do anything and turned in the paper in advance, but he was ranked first in the A list and first in the review!
Wu Yi simply couldn’t believe his ears.
Impossible, absolutely impossible, why did this
happen after an unknown amount of time, Zhang Wen still coughed heavily.
Only then did Fang Xiu come back to his senses, stood up and took the imperial edict, saying: “Thank you, Your Majesty.”
Zhang Wen glanced at him. He wanted to care about his lack of etiquette in accepting the edict, but he remembered what his godfather had told him when he was about to leave the palace. Tsukuru didn’t see anything.
With a smile on his face, he complimented: “Congratulations to Mr. Fang for ranking first in the school review and for his rapid rise to prominence.”
Before he could finish his words, Fang Xiu interrupted him: “It’s better not to say these words, maybe it’s something else.” At that time, I accidentally entered the prison. When the time comes, I will implicate Eunuch Zhang. “
Next to him, Wu Yi heard this and wanted to step forward and cover Fang Xiu’s mouth.
How can you say such nonsense when you enter the prison?
If it falls on the ears of those who are interested, it will inevitably fall on the tongue.
Moreover, the person in front of him is an imperial envoy from the palace. Although his status is not high, he has great energy. If he annoys him, there will be no good results.
Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened.
The little eunuch who delivered the order did not care about Fang Xiu’s words. Instead, he smiled and said in an almost flattering tone: “Young Master Fang, you are serious. Yesterday, we were too blind to recognize Taishan and made you unhappy. Your Excellency has a lot of money.” , Just treat it like this.”
When he said this, he took two steps closer, leaned against Fang Xiu’s ear, and whispered, “Just think of me as a fart, let me go.”
As he said that, he took out a heavy piece of silver from his sleeve. Push it into Fang Xiu’s hand.
When Wu Yi saw this scene, his eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.
He didn’t hear clearly what the imperial envoy said, but he saw clearly the action of stuffing the money.
In the past, only those who received orders gave money to imperial envoys. Never did an imperial envoy give money to those who received orders.
This, what is going on?
Could it be that I was dazzled and saw it wrong?
He rubbed his eyes and looked again.
The imperial envoy is still the same imperial envoy, and Fang Xiu is still the same Fang Xiu.
There was no dazzle.
The shock in Wu Yi’s heart has reached its extreme.
Crazy, really crazy!
What he didn’t expect was that something even crazier was yet to come.
Fang Xiu actually threw the silver to the ground, stepped on it hard, and said with indignation: “Who do you think this young master is!? This young master is upright and upright, has a noble character, and regards money as dirt. How can he accept this from you?” “Waiting for ill-gotten gains! You, you”
seemed to be hurt by anger, and after taking a few breaths, he said angrily: “In broad daylight, in front of so many people, you openly bribed the imperial officials. You are still a palace.” This is unreasonable, my minister!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present, including the accompanying imperial guards, the young eunuch Zhang Wen, and Wu Yi, were all stunned.
For a moment, the entire main hall was silent
