Chapter 258 The hatred is deeper

Tang Feng told Cui Chengxiu and others in one sentence, which really made them lose the ability to argue, but he did not plan to just forget it and said, "I guess Mr. Cui is holding a grudge against me and blamed me for convicting the Cui family and losing face. That's why he came up with this vicious plan, right?"

"Nine Thousand Sui, don't listen to his nonsense, there is no such thing. The official just came to be afraid that Nine Thousand Sui would be deceived by him..." Cui Chengxiu reacted very quickly and immediately argued. But Tang Feng's subsequent words made him unable to explain: "Oh, is that right? But as far as I know, the reason why Xu Cang was imprisoned was the plan set by Lord Cui and Lord Wei. What should I say about him who sued him to the Yousi Yamen is a student of Lord Cui. Also, you have already known about Xu Cang's affairs as a member of the Donglin Party, why did you only come to mention it with Nine Thousand Sui until now? Do you still dare to say that you want to use Nine Thousand Sui's hands to deal with me?"

"We..." The two of them were speechless again. Obviously, they didn't expect that Tang Feng had known so much. Obviously, he had made a lot of preparations in the past two days, and then they came to see Wei Zhongxian.

Seeing that the two of them had nothing to say, Wei Zhongxian knew that Tang Feng was right, and his expression immediately became sank. He didn't say that he could not stand the fight among the people below, but he could not tolerate this matter. Cui Chengxiu actually tried to use his own to deal with Tang Feng several times, which was beyond his tolerance. After snorting coldly, Wei Zhongxian said to the two: "You are so brave. You even hide these things from our family. Do you really think that our family is not in charge?"

Wei Guangwei had already woken up at this time and immediately knelt down and said, "Please forgive me for being nine thousand years old. The lower official was deceived by Cui Chengxiu and thought that Tang Feng had a bad intention, so he came up with this bad plan. Now it seems that as Lord Tang said, everything was done by Cui Chengxiu on purpose."

Seeing that Wei Guangwei pushed all the mistakes on him, Cui Chengxiu was even more shocked and angry and couldn't speak. At this time, Tang Feng saw that this was a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation, so he also said: "What Lord Wei said is indeed reasonable. He may have been deceived by Cui Chengxiu and came to see Jiu Qiansui with him." Although this was just a statement on Wei Guangwei and there was no other criticism, it was finalized for Cui Chengxiu's crime. If Wei Guangwei wanted to avoid being implicated, he could only stand on the same front with Tang Feng.

Sure enough, Wei Guangwei said what Cui Chengxiu was wrong as Tang Feng thought, and pushed all the mistakes to this person who was completely disgusted. Although Wei Zhongxian saw the strangeness, he also knew that Wei Guangwei's role in him, so he was happy that Cui Chengxiu took all the responsibilities. After scolding him, they all left. As for Xu Cang, as he said before, he just cut off his fame and drove him out of the capital.

"Please go slowly!" When Tang Feng walked out of the Wei Mansion gate with one sway, he happened to see Cui Chengxiu looking for a sedan chair with dark clouds on his face, so he called him. After the other party stopped, he quickly stepped forward and came to Cui Chengxiu and whispered: "I didn't expect that Lord Cui would not listen to my advice and would still be enemies with me. Now he knows it's amazing, right? Let me tell you, my patience is limited, don't think I really dare not deal with you."

"You!" Cui Chengxiu glanced at the man who made him look disgraceful. She really wanted to go up and pinch his neck and strangle the hateful person to death, but she knew that she was no match for the young man, so she had to express her hatred with her eyes.

Tang Feng smiled softly: "You offended me again this time, I will always find a way to get back the scene. Lord Cui, please be careful." After saying the provocative words, Tang Feng turned over and left with his personal soldiers with his bridle.

A few days later, Xu Cang, who had suffered for several days in prison, was finally released, but his position as an editor in the Hanlin Academy was gone, and even his pride in the status of the two Jinshis was exempted by the court order, which made him really sad. However, after experiencing the disaster in prison, this somewhat pedantic person was a little open-minded. So when Tang Feng came to the door again, he no longer treated him like he did the previous time.

"Brother Maolin, your incident this time has a lot to do with me. If I hadn't come to you before and investigated your father's situation, you wouldn't have ended up like this. I'm really ashamed." Tang Feng bowed repeatedly.

Xu Cang did not blame himself for this matter as Tang Feng thought, but said with a wry smile; "This is life. In fact, I will know as soon as I come back. You were trying to save me, otherwise I might have been exiled or tortured. I didn't expect you to save me without grudges."

Tang Feng looked at his same year in confusion, not understanding why his attitude had changed so much. Xu Cang explained as if he had seen through Tang Feng's thoughts: "After you came to me and asked about my father that day, I thought that you were not the person you said, and you probably have some difficulties. If you are really like those eunuchsmen, you won't help me get out of trouble this time, and I will still accept your kindness."

Tang Feng was also happy when he saw that Xu Cang did not blame him, but he still said, "But Brother Maolin, you used to have a great future, but now... I still feel a little ashamed of you."

"The situation in the court now is like this. What can I do as a Hanlin editor? It would be better to go back to my hometown early to be a rich man." Speaking of this, he suddenly thought about what happened before and said, "By the way, you came to see what I said about my father a few days ago. I thought about it carefully in prison, but I remembered something."

"What's the matter?" When Tang Feng heard about Xu Cang's father, he immediately put the guilt in his heart aside.

"It's so. I remember when I was still studying the book of sages, I saw my father write a note. I accidentally looked and asked him. He said that this was his experience of studying firearms throughout his life, but the original officials did not value it, and some of the methods seemed unrealistic, so they were not implemented. However, he thought this would be helpful to my Ming Dynasty's firearms in the future. He didn't want anyone to know about it after his death, so he left a note."

"Really? That's great!" Tang Feng said happily: "I don't know where this note is, so it might make me read it?"

"It's just that I was just trying to seek fame and fame back then, and I didn't take this letter too seriously, so I never brought it to the capital. After I returned to Suzhou this time, I will find it and hand it over to Yizhi. But you have to tell me why I want it?"

Tang Feng explained: "Now the Ming Dynasty's border army has a certain gap with the Jin people's combat power. What I can rely on is the advantage in firearms. So I want to help improve the firearms of our Ming army, so that we can truly defeat the Jin people."

Since it is the important task of defending the border and defending the country, Xu Cang would not refuse. He immediately said, "Yizhi, don't worry, I will look for this note after I return home, and I will definitely not disappoint you!" Then he looked at Tang Feng with some confusion: "See that your current idea is still to serve the country, and your behavior back then was not a person who was competing for power, but why would you join the eunuchsmen?"

Tang Feng just smiled and said, "I have my own plans for this matter. One day, Brother Maolin, you will understand my feelings." Xu Cang looked at Tang Feng for a while and laughed: "It's because I have always been too pedantic. Now I'm leaving now and I know your hard work. I'm so ashamed."

Xu Cang's life was saved. Not only did Tang Feng not be implicated, but Cui Chengxiu lost another person. It can be said that he had won a great victory, but he was not too happy. When Tian Jing asked him why, Tang Feng's eyes showed murderous aura: "This Cui Chengxiu's conspiracy is a great help to the eunuch party that can become the current situation, and he has formed a lot of hatred with me. I can no longer passively wait for him to come and cause trouble for me. Before, I was unable to deal with him because of official duties and his identity, but now I have to think of a plan that can be done once and for all."

Tian Jing also understood that Cui Chengxiu's threat to Tang Feng, but it was still difficult to get rid of this person. After all, he was still a senior official in the court, and his official position was much higher than that of Tang Feng, which was not something he could get rid of just if he wanted to. If someone was sent to assassinate it, it would be very simple, but because Tang Feng had been in constant disputes with him recently, killing him Tang Feng was the primary target of suspicion. Maybe Wei Zhongxian would kick Tang Feng away because of this. This kind of loss-loss is not a good result for him. So after thinking for a long time, he still did not have an effective way.

In desperation, Tang Feng had to hide his murderous intent first, but he often made things difficult for Cui Chengxiu, using this to suppress him and make his life difficult. After the previous incident, Tang Feng's position in the eunuch party was further improved, which was a reward.

August was already here, and the weather was getting colder. Tang Feng stayed in the army for a few days and returned to his home again. Halfway through the road, he gave in his eyebrows and said, "Young Master, Cui Chengxiu's nephew who was following you a month ago appeared again. It seems that he is giving up."

"Hmph, he is just a scholar. What can he do?" Tang Feng was angry when he mentioned Cui Chengxiu. Suddenly his face changed and asked, "I remember you said that he followed me to kill me, but is there any such thing?"
