Within the spacious compartment, Xue Tingshan draped a black crane cloak and sat cross-legged on the blue carpet.
There’s a gilt smoker cage in a single nook of the carriage, and one of the best silver charcoal is burned inside, making the entire carriage heat.
He held on to the automotive curtain with one hand, his extensive black sleeves drooped down, with a smile in his eyes, and a touch of doubt: “Who’re you?”
Amber lowered his eyes midway: “Your Excellency ought to have seen this previous man in Dinghai Metropolis…”
“In case you discuss Ding Haicheng, I’ll meet many individuals. I do not know you. If in case you have nothing to do, again away and do not block my manner.” Xue Tingxiang interrupted him.
“grown ups……”
“Have you ever heard that? Depart shortly. My lord is the official of the imperial courtroom. If you’re abrupt once more, I’ll ship you to the Wucheng Bingma Division.”
“Grasp Xue, the previous man is a servant of the Wu household, and he as soon as accompanied the lady to fulfill the lord.” As a final resort, Amber did not care about pretending to be subtle, so he may solely report his household in a rush.
“The Wu household, however the previous Wu household of Wu Ge? What is the matter with you?” Xue Tingxiang’s eyes fell on him once more.
“It is not handy to speak right here, I’m wondering if my lord can discover a place to speak with the previous man alone.” Amber mentioned.
He anticipated that Xue Tingxiang wouldn’t agree simply, however unexpectedly, the opposite celebration casually raised his hand and pointed to a teahouse not far-off, saying: “That is the place it’s.”
The 2 entered the teahouse one after one other and selected a non-public room to sit down down.
Xue Tingxiang took a sip of the aromatic tea and mentioned, “If in case you have one thing to do, simply inform me. I haven’t got a lot time to spend with you.”
“My lord, it is due to my grasp’s enterprise.”
“In case you’re right here to intercede for Mr. Wu Ge, you’d higher not open your mouth. Firstly, we do not know one another nicely, and secondly, this case is just not below the jurisdiction of this official.”
“The previous man needs to ask your lord for one thing, and I hope your lord will help my lady.”
Xue Tingxiang checked out him with raised eyebrows, and out of the blue laughed, filled with sarcasm and mock: “You Wu members of the family are actually ridiculous, that is the way you often ask for assist?”
He ignored Amber’s ugly face, and his face turned chilly: “I made it very clear earlier than, firstly, we aren’t accustomed to one another, and secondly, this case is just not below the authority’s trial now. To place it bluntly, your Wu household has a relationship with me. Resentment, why ought to I assist your Wu household.”
“Grasp Xue…”
Xue Tingxiang twitched the corners of his mouth: “You Wu household, do not you overlook what you probably did?”
“Grasp Xue…”
He stood up and placed on his hood: “I’ve completed my tea, and I’ve completed what I must say. I feel Steward Wu is a brilliant man, so do not take it upon your self.”
It has introduced disgrace on itself!
If there have been different methods, Amber wouldn’t come to Xue Tingxiang, however there was no different manner.
After Amber left that day, he went to Wu’s home.
However the Wu household is now below strict guard by individuals from Jinyiwei, who will not be allowed to enter or depart. Amber checked out it from a distance for a very long time, and had no alternative however to show round and depart.
Nevertheless, after staying away from the capital for the previous few years, he’s not the identical as earlier than. He tried to seek out out some inside data from the disciples of Mr. Wu Ge, however nobody dared to see him.
Up to now few days, when he heard that the facility of interrogation was transferred to Jin Yiwei, Amber knew that the Wu household was utterly completed this time.
The Wu household might be completed, however the lady cannot be completed, particularly when he went to the Tao’s home early this morning, simply in time to fulfill the widow Tao who made Tao Yi divorce Wu Wanqiong.
He was livid, and even quarreled with Widow Tao, however he was no match for that previous shrew.
In desperation, he lastly determined to implement the earlier thought.
It is a pity that it was self-defeating, as a result of he could not actually bow his head for some time, he really offended Xue Tingxiang.
As quickly as Xue Tingxiang walked to the door, he heard a plop, and turned his head to look, nevertheless it was Amber who knelt down.
“If the youthful one’s earlier angle made Mr. Xue sad, please do not inform the youthful one. The youthful one is sincerely begging Mr. Xue. The youthful one is aware of that the previous is insufferable, so please Mr. Xue do not keep in mind the villain. Nevertheless, don’t be accustomed to the little ones.”
Xue Tingxiang checked out him with darkish eyes.
As if seeing that the opposite celebration was a bit of shaken, Amber mentioned: “My grasp has at all times acted cautiously. Even along with his disciples, he hardly ever communicated with letters. Often, letters had been written by others. You decide Xiang Rong, and also you principally decide him. Nothing, even when he himself pleaded responsible, there is no such thing as a proof to show that it was my lord who instigated it. And my lord was the elder of the 2 dynasties, and was extremely valued by the Tai/zu. In case you don’t care about him in any respect, at most you’ll be dismissed from workplace to serve the individuals.”
Xue Tingxiang’s eyes got interested, he returned to the desk and sat down, checked out Amber: “If I am not mistaken, you’re the steward of the Wu household, and you’re deeply trusted by Wu Ge, simply since you prompted a catastrophe earlier than. , was uncared for. What? You might be resentful for being uncared for, so that you need to take revenge on the grasp?”
Amber’s face darkened in embarrassment: “Grasp Xue can say something, however the youthful one got here right here as we speak simply to make a cope with Grasp Xue. So long as the grownup can hold my lady protected, the youthful one will supply one thing. Issues are sufficient to make adults want for issues come true.”
Xue Tingxiang laughed inexplicably, and his eyes had been filled with indifference: “You need to shield Wu Wanqiong? My spouse was attacked by pirates that day, and also you and Wu Wanqiong obtained it out of it, proper? Why do you suppose I’ll shield an enemy?”
“Do not you need Wu Ge to die of previous age?” Amber requested anxiously.
“It does not matter if I give it some thought or not, what does it should do with you?” Xue Tingxiang stood up and checked out him coldly, “The tree falls and the monkeys scatter. I do not care about an individual who’s destined to finish badly.” .”
Amber was silent for some time, and mentioned: “The lady is only a lady, and she or he is just not doing nicely now. If Mr. Xue has any complaints in his coronary heart, he can immediately pour it on the infant. What occurred that day can be from my palms, and it has nothing to do with the lady. Nice relationship.”
“I really cannot determine it out. Individuals on the planet have the intuition to hunt benefits and keep away from disadvantages. You might be good. You are taking all of the crimes on your self. It’s uncommon for a slave to do one thing such as you. May or not it’s that Wu Wanqiong is definitely yours?” Daughter, that is why you deal with her so laborious?”
Amber’s face froze for a second: “Grasp Xue is a scholar, educated and cheap, it is higher to not guess rashly, it is going to make you lose your demeanor and tolerance.”
“I used to be born within the countryside, so I haven’t got any bearing, however I am very interested by this matter.” Xue Tingxiang smiled, and glanced at him: “I am not afraid to inform you, I am small-minded and love to carry grudges, however I do not What behavior of not fussing with girls, if Butler Wu has no motive to persuade me, then please redeem me, I can not agree.”
After a suffocating silence, Amber mentioned: “The lady is definitely born of my spouse and my infant.”
Xue Tingxiang’s eyes lit up instantly, it had nothing to do with the rest, nevertheless it was past his creativeness.
In truth, he has been speculating about it primarily based on the reminiscence of that dream, however he by no means anticipated such a bloody factor to occur.
“… Madam was not favored by the grasp due to her weak physique, and there have been many aunts within the again home of the grasp, Madam was at all times depressed… Later…”
In truth, irrespective of the way you cowl it up, you’ll be able to’t disguise that Amber is a despicable individual.
He paid consideration to Mrs. Wu as a result of he hated Mr. Wu Ge, and even some accidents that occurred afterwards had been really intentionally organized by him, out of a unclean mentality that would not be proven to others.
The largest insult to a person is nothing greater than his spouse being prostituted. He approached with such ideas, however by accident fell into it. Particularly after Mrs. Wu by accident came upon that it was not Wu Ge Lao however Wu An that night time, she was so indignant that she collapsed even sooner, and eventually handed away.
All of this has change into a illness in Amber’s coronary heart, a illness that can’t be cured.
In truth, he died a very long time in the past on the day when Mrs. Wu was gone, and the rationale why he survived was nothing greater than due to Wu Wanqiong.
“Then Wu Ge has been childless for a few years, and it’s also due to you?” Xue Tingxiang had suspected this matter a very long time in the past, and he had doubts in that dream, however at the moment he hated Wu Ge deeply, so naturally he did not Will deal with it.
Amber froze for a second, then nodded: “The infant is a servant, and the spouse is only a lady. A baby with no mom has no shelter. If the daddy does not care, life shall be extraordinarily troublesome.” So he borrowed With Wu Ge’s belief, he has been drugging his tea or meals, so Wu Ge has nothing to do for a few years.
“Initially, this official wouldn’t comply with you, however the story you instructed made me really feel good. I want to hear your so-called technique to place Mr. Wu Ge to demise.”

Xiang Yu recruited.
Du Jipeng got here to Xue Tingxiang instantly.
As Xue Tingxiang thought earlier than, though Xiang Yu may come out and determine Wu Ge Lao, however there is no such thing as a direct proof to show that Wu Ge Lao was instigated.
Xue Tingxiang whispered one thing to Du Jipeng, and Du Jipeng instantly took individuals to the Wu residence.
In truth, the Wu Mansion had been taken inside and outside many instances as early as when Mr. Wu Ge was taken into custody. Now, apart from some servants, girls and kids, there is no such thing as a one who can handle the home.
Aunt Feng is a girl in spite of everything, she has lengthy been frightened by the wolf-like Jin Yiwei. Everybody within the mansion was in panic, for worry that at some point the imperial decree could be issued, and they might be beheaded or bought.
Jin Yiwei got here to the door once more, inflicting them a wave of worry, however Jin Yiwei did not keep for lengthy, took his issues and left.
The issues are hidden in a rockery in Wu Wanqiong’s courtyard. It’s Amber who has adopted Mr. Wu Gel for a few years and recorded the issues finished by his palms.
As for who and what occurred on a sure day and a sure month, after all, there are additionally a couple of letters that ought to be destroyed however had been hidden by Amber.
With these items, it’s sufficient for Wu Ge to die of previous age numerous instances.
After the issues had been handed in, the federal government and the general public had been shocked.
Nevertheless, this factor was not publicized by Emperor Jiacheng. It was solely publicized how Wu Ge Lao ordered Xiang Yu to dig the embankment of the river in Yucheng County, how he conspired to return to the courtroom, and the Wu household smuggled alongside the coast. data.
This data alone is sufficient to shock individuals.
The eighteen years of Jiacheng was destined to be a precarious yr, and the tip of the eighteen years of Jiacheng additionally ended with bloody killings.
Wu Gelao and Xiang Yu and different officers concerned within the case had been all sentenced to beheaded and their household property confiscated. Different officers concerned in comparatively minor circumstances had been dismissed from workplace as civilians, or exiled into the military.
On the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, the vegetable market was overcrowded, they usually all got here to see the beheading.
With an order, the knife fell to the pinnacle, which additionally created the apply that because the institution of the Dachang Dynasty, high-ranking officers are nonetheless civil servants who don’t need to die.
Because it’s a complete household of copying and beheading, even younger and previous won’t let it go.
Certain sufficient, Tao Yitong divorced Wu Wanqiong earlier than the emperor ordered him to come back down, and even took the initiative to ship him to Jinyiwei. To not point out how his habits was ridiculed by others, since Wu Wanqiong has been divorced, she is not the spouse of the Tao household, however a daughter of the Wu household.
She was additionally within the ranks of being copied and beheaded this time, however nobody knew that she had already been changed.
Simply when the vegetable market was overcrowded, a inexperienced curtained automotive quietly drove out of the capital.
Their route could also be Jiangxi, possibly Jiangnan, however who is aware of? Destined to not trigger any waves.

The nineteenth yr of Jiacheng is destined to be a yr full of latest ambiance.
With Henan and different locations, in addition to the faction of Wu faction in the course of the courtroom falling, many positions had been naturally vacated. Emperor Jiacheng promoted many officers, and there was a brand new ambiance within the courtroom.
And since Emperor Jiacheng was holding the booklet copied from the Wu household, nobody knew what was written in it or what else it contained. Subsequently, all officers who had contacts with the Wu household previously are at risk.
When all the pieces was at a standstill, Emperor Jiacheng naturally had the facility in his palms, and the entire courtroom was like his arms and fingers, and it was indescribably easy.
Taking this chance, the cupboard has additionally modified.
With Elder Wu Ge being copied and beheaded by everybody, Elder Xu Ge, who was within the place of chief assistant, was lastly capable of retire.
In truth, at his age, he ought to have retired a very long time in the past, particularly previously two years as a result of he has been forgetful, and the variety of instances he entered the palace and got here to the cupboard might be counted on the fingers.
The rationale why Emperor Jiacheng did not enable him to retire was simply to occupy the place of chief assistant.
There have been initially eight individuals within the cupboard, however now two individuals have gone down, and they’re nonetheless the positions of first and second assistants. On the floor, everybody isn’t any completely different from strange individuals, however actually they’re already prepared to maneuver.
Emperor Jiacheng’s association utterly dispelled this eagerness to maneuver.
He proposed Ye Ju, the previous inspector of Zhejiang Province, and Lin Miao, the left servant of the Ministry of rites, to affix the cupboard, and Tan Liang and Tan Ge Lao because the chief assistant.
After the order was issued, there was an uproar within the courtroom, nevertheless it was not stunning that Emperor Jiacheng would do that.
How may such an autocratic emperor quit the place of head and assistant to proficient individuals. In fact, it does not imply that Tan Liang has no expertise, however Tan Liang is just a few years youthful than Xu Ge, and he’s nonetheless in his seventies now. What he can do at this age is simply occupying a place.
In truth, there are already indicators of Emperor Jiacheng’s varied preparations. Ye Ju is an individual of Emperor Jiacheng and a succesful minister. Due to inadequate {qualifications}, he was first launched to preside over rural examinations in varied locations to build up contacts for him, after which he was positioned in Zhejiang, which is an important place. .
Now that the gold plating is again, it’s time to be a part of the cupboard.
It was Lin Miao’s entry into the cupboard that made many individuals within the courtroom a bit of confused.
As a result of this individual has at all times been unknown, even after coming into the Imperial Academy, he was promoted to be a member of Zhongshusheren, and later promoted to a bachelor of servants, after which turned the fitting servant of the Ministry of Rites.
That is certainly the route for the courtiers to enter the cupboard, however there will not be no courtiers who’re superior to him within the courtroom, so why is it his flip.
Solely these Xu individuals perceive that this individual’s entry into the cupboard might be because of the admission of two good college students.
A Chen Jian, clearly the successor of Mr. Xu Ge, however his {qualifications} and age will not be sufficient, he’s nonetheless serving as a bachelor within the Imperial Academy in the meanwhile, instructing a number of princes to learn.
It’s an costly job, and after a very long time, it’s conceivable to affix the cupboard.
A Xue Tingxiang. Though the instructor and the coed haven’t seen one another since coming into the imperial courtroom, however this sort of no contact is clearly only for present, who is aware of what is going on on inside.
When it comes to standing, these two are masters and apprentices.
This Xue Tingxiang is horrible, Zhejiang Pingchao Kaifu, however in lower than ten years, he sat on the excessive place of Cong Yipin. On this journey again to Beijing, he was awarded the title of Prince Shao Fu, and went to Henan to supply catastrophe aid, which immediately pulled down all of the Wu clan. There are a whole lot of navy officers in North Korea, Chinese language and Chinese language, however nobody else has such abilities.
Such a pillar of the nation, coupled with its aura of six yuan and first rank, shall be an ironclad cupboard minister sooner or later, and an individual with an extended historical past.
Subsequently, it’s conceivable that Lin Miao will be a part of the cupboard.
Irrespective of how the individuals under guessed, all in all, the courtroom has undergone a brand new reshuffle. After the reshuffle, nobody is aware of what is going to occur to the courtroom.
On this event, Xue Tingxiang additionally had an actual scarcity and was appointed as the fitting servant of the family division.
His {qualifications} and even his deserves are sufficient.
However the 30-year-old Hubu corridor official? It’s also a brand new instance.
Xue Tingxiang as soon as once more made a giant splash, all of which won’t be listed intimately in the meanwhile.

To Zhao’er, whether or not a person will get promoted or not does not appear to make any distinction to her.
She is now dealing with an issue, that’s shifting.
The matter of shifting home could seem inconspicuous, however actually there are too many issues to deal with inside and outside. As well as, Xue Tingxiang goes to be promoted and has to arrange a bar.
These are all issues, all on her head.
After being busy for greater than half a month, these issues had been lastly settled, and the entire household moved to Xue’s home close to Donghuamen.
In spite of everything, it’s the home given by the emperor, how may or not it’s dangerous.
Evidently there are solely three entrances, however as a result of there’s a huge backyard, it’s not smaller than these homes with 5 entrances. Earlier than the handover, they had been all newly repaired, model new, with carved beams and painted buildings, which makes individuals really feel comfortable.
A very powerful factor is the situation.
Now Xue Tingxiang has an actual scarcity and has to go to courtroom daily. If it was modified to the place the place I lived earlier than, it’s estimated that I might stand up on the third watch, however now it begins on the fifth watch, and I’m not afraid of being late in any respect.
It was morning mild exterior, and Xue Tingxiang was nonetheless mendacity on the sofa.
“Cannot you stand up? It is too late to stand up, and it is time to be named by the censor who supervises Chaoyi, so it might be embarrassing.”
Zhao’er was very drained.
Elevating a person isn’t any completely different from elevating a baby. He’s very critical on weekdays, however when he isn’t critical, he’s extra tiring than a baby.
It is not that she needs to go to courtroom, making herself extra drained than him, waking up on time daily, after which telling this residing ancestor to stand up and go to courtroom.
In truth, Xue Tingxiang has not been too late after such a very long time, however Zhao’er blamed it on her laborious work, so she naturally feels a heavy accountability.
Xue Tingxiang rubbed her face on her chest, eyes nonetheless closed: “Sleep a bit of longer, I did not sleep till midnight final night time.”
“You additionally know that you just did not go to mattress till midnight, who made you make hassle so late yesterday.” Mentioning this, Zhao’er was indignant and hated, and whereas rubbing his waist, he pushed him away.
He simply rolled within the quilt and continued to go to sleep, with none consciousness of being a father, a husband, or a courtier.
Zhao’er placed on her garments and appeared again on the man within the mattress helplessly.
She raised her voice to inform the maids to organize water, and when the kettles and handkerchiefs had been introduced in, she waved them again, twisted the handkerchief, and came to visit to wipe Xue Tingxiang’s face and physique.
Wipe laborious.
After wiping, he took out his coat and put it on for him.
This man did not really feel responsible in any respect, along with his eyes closed, he nonetheless knew that he ought to elevate his legs and palms, and he ought to elevate his palms. After ending it with nice problem, Zhao’er was additionally very drained, so she slapped him on the waist and buttocks.
“Rise up shortly, or I am going to name Ning Ning later and make you ashamed to be a father.” After saying that, Zhao’er turned his again and went to scrub up.
By the point she completed washing, the person had already woken up, yawning like he was nonetheless asleep.
“What have you ever been doing lately? I at all times really feel that you just appear to be very drained. Your Majesty requested you to work as a coolie?”
Zhao’er was only a joke, nevertheless it really hit her mark.
Xue Tingxiang was dragged to work as a coolie.
