With the words "You will not live for your own sins", today's interrogation is finally over. Bachelor Liu Mianmian can confidently report to the emperor: Fang Qingzhi said that he "will not live for his own sins", and he seems to have regrets. This is enough.
After all, Emperor Chenghua was not a ruthless person and would not insist on eradicating the roots.
Fang Yingwu breathed a sigh of relief. As his biological father, he really didn't make people worry. What would happen to him if he didn't have his help to make detours?
Afterwards, Fang Yingwu could no longer think about what his father's next step would be. As long as he could be released from prison, he could do anything. Now his main consideration was his own choice. After he went to Dongchang tomorrow, how would he respond in front of Commander Yuan and Wantong?
?
Wantong is the younger brother of Concubine Wan Gui, but Commander Yuan is not a good person either. The most important information Commander Yuan revealed today is that he and Huai En are in the same group.
Commander Yuan's reputation can be ignored by Fang Yingwu, since meritorious deeds belong to the previous dynasty, not to mention that he will be buried at an old age; but if Commander Yuan is supported by Huai'en, then he has to consider it.
To be honest, don't look at the countless successful villains who emerged in the Chenghua Dynasty. There were more than a dozen people like Wantong. The eunuch Wang Zhi, the alchemist Li Zisheng, the Queen Mother and the Zhou family were even more rampant.
You may not feel good after offending them, but when it comes to the person who should not be offended the most, it is Eunuch Huai En who lives deep in the inner palace and seldom appears outside the palace.
If you offend other villains, it may only be a temporary misfortune. Ten years later, the emperor will be changed, and the atmosphere will change and you will become a good man again.
And if you offend Wynn, you may not be unlucky, because Wynn has an upright character after all. But if you are unlucky and unlucky, you will definitely be unlucky for the rest of your life. No one can be sure that you are lucky.
Not to mention that Huai'en himself is the eunuch in charge of the ceremony. The most terrible thing is that Huai'en is regarded as a godfather by the current prince and the future Emperor Xiaozong.
Therefore, the balance in Fang Yingwu's heart naturally tilted.
If I talk about the most unfortunate thing since arriving in the capital, it is that I was entangled with the upstart Wantong. But for the sake of my father, although I didn't think much of him, I had to tolerate it.
I'm going to Dongchang tomorrow. I'm afraid I'll have to choose the lesser of two evils.
As the name suggests, Dongchang is located at Dong'anmen in the east of the imperial city. What Dongchang does is known to everyone from eighty-year-olds to ten-year-olds, so there is no need to go into details.
Early the next morning, Fang Yingwu set out and arrived outside the Dongchang Yamen. Fortunately, Dongchang's mission this time was to find out, not to interrogate, otherwise Dongchang might have arrested Fang Yingwu and treated him as a suspect.
At the door, he reported his name and origin to the fierce-looking Dongchang Fanzi, and someone took him inside. When he passed the gate, he saw a strange archway with four big characters on it: "Fragrance will last forever."
Fang Yingwu was speechless about the archway, and continued walking after passing the second gate. Sure enough, he saw the legendary Yue Fei Temple next to the lobby, and he continued to be speechless.
While Fang Yingwu was waiting under the eaves, he met his old rival, the leader of the five-man Jinyiwei side that had fought that day. Later he heard that his surname was Yang.
Sure enough, no matter what the occasion, the lower the status, the earlier the person comes. The two of them knew that there must be someone watching around them, so they didn't say a word and remained silent.
I don’t know how long it took, but Wantong and Yuan Bin arrived at the East Factory, and entered the lobby and sat down on the left and right sides. I don’t know how long it took, but Shang Ming, the Admiral of the East Factory, also appeared and sat down on the main seat in the middle.
At this time, Fang Yingwu and Colonel Yang entered the lobby. Colonel Yang knelt down and kowtowed, while Fang Yingwu only bowed.
This Shang Ming is short and well-maintained. If he goes out wearing a satin robe, he will be regarded as a rich man without a beard. No one will think that he is such a big shot as the eunuch Bingbi, the eunuch of the ceremony, and the admiral of the East Factory.
.
Shang Ming smiled and said: "Your Majesty asked me to investigate and find out the beating of filial sons at the Jinyiwei Official School outside the Jinyiwei Yamen Office a while ago. I really don't understand how such a trivial matter can alarm your Majesty."
Wantong took the lead and said: "It's a trivial matter in the first place. It's true that Captain Yang is a close confidant of this officer. But someone just fabricated it and said that my officer harmed Zhongliang. I think it's all making trouble out of nothing, and I don't like it!"
He is really a nouveau riche who jumped from the market! Several other people thought in unison. What kind of cronies and unpleasant words of his, how could he say them so unsubtly and openly?
Could it be that Shang Ming was being pretentious: "But I am in a very difficult position. Jin Yiwei's affairs are not something I can easily handle. So today I called the two adults and the parties involved to explain things clearly in person, and then I also
It’s good to go back to the emperor.”
Seeing that everyone was silent, Shang Ming urged, "Who can speak first?" Still no one answered, so Shang Ming called by name and said, "Colonel Yang, please speak up."
Captain Yang took a step forward and said firmly: "The alley was narrow at that time, and there were a lot of people among us, so when we passed each other, we had a quarrel because of the collision, so we got into a fight with the Fang family's servants."
"Haha, it turned out to be a verbal dispute." Shang Ming nodded and asked Fang Yingwu: "Fang Xiucai, do you think this is the truth?"
According to Wantong's prior entrustment, Fang Yingwu should step forward at this time and say, "It's true, we had a dispute with the other party because of a quarrel, and then the other party started fighting with my servants."
Then things came to light and ended successfully.
Under the gazes of Commander Yuan and Wantong, Fang Yingwu spoke very carefully: "The students just walked into the alley, and someone came towards them and beat the students."
Commander Yuan and Wantong had different expressions, but Shang Ming was completely neutral and asked, "Is this the case?"
"Indeed."
Shang Ming looked at Colonel Yang who was slightly panicked because of Fang Yingwu's accident, "You and Fang Xiucai have different opinions. What's the reason?"
Captain Yang was just a warrior, not good at words, and was speechless for a while.
Seeing him like this, Shang Ming rubbed his forehead with a headache, "Fang Xiucai went to Jinyiwei Yamen to fulfill his filial piety before the prison. Besides, there were fewer people than the other party, and he was a scholar. Logically speaking, he would not take the initiative to provoke Jinyiwei Yamen.
Brawl, so"
When he said this, he deliberately prolonged his tone, and then simply stopped, looking only at Commander Wantong, wanting to see how Wantong would explain.
Just now, Wantong didn't say anything. He said that Captain Yang was his confidant and now he would be given a chance. What surprised Eunuch Shang was that Wantong didn't say a word, as if he was struck by Fang Yingwu. This
Arrogant people probably still can't believe Fang Yingwu's abandonment of him.
Commander Yuan spoke up and said to Shang Ming: "What Eunuch Shang said is absolutely true, and that's the truth. I just don't understand why Captain Yang took the initiative to fight with Fang Xiucai."
Eunuch Shang smiled and said, "Just find out the truth and report it to the Emperor. It doesn't matter what is right or wrong, and finding out is meaningless."
Commander Yuan stopped talking. He could see that the scene played by Wantong and Fang Xiucai was probably to lure others out of the hole, to seduce others into impeaching him for killing Zhongliang, and then to have Fang Yingwu come forward to deny it. Then he would be impeached.
It is inevitable for a person to be accused of slandering a relative of his country.
He was still smart enough to draw over Fang Yingwu through Fang Qingzhi, which really solidified the reputation of Wantong's cronies to besiege Zhongliang. It was like Wantong shot himself in the foot.
It would be good to let Eunuch Shang ask the truth. If you want him to dig deeper, then unless the emperor personally issues an edict, why would Eunuch Shang take the initiative to cause trouble?
Shang Ming then said decisively: "So this fight was caused by Captain Yang and others deliberately beating up Fang Xiucai, his master and servant, in the alley outside the Yamen Office. Unexpectedly, Fang Xiucai's righteous servant Zhongyong and his savior were defeated instead -
This is how I made a memorial to the Emperor."
There was a scribe's record next to it, and he wrote down what Shang Ming had said. Eunuch Shang looked at it, nodded and said: "Take it to build the Dongchang customs defense, seal it and send it to Da Nei!"
Eunuch Shang is not impatient, but he knows that Ye Changmeng has many things to do and it is better to end this matter as soon as possible.
Since Wantong has stopped talking, let's make this decision. Anyway, Wantong will only get a scolding at most. With his imperial concubine and sister here, he may not be able to rise to the level of a half-hearted businessman, but his downfall will not be easy.
The clerk quickly took the document and went out. After a while, he came back and reported: "It has been sealed and sent to the palace as a haste."
Shang Ming felt relieved and said: "Everyone, after today's work is over, let's leave here?"
Commander Yuan stood up to leave, and Fang Yingwu turned around to leave, but Commander Wan sat on his chair, suddenly leaned forward and backward, and burst into laughter.
The laughter of "Hahahaha" echoed in the lobby of Dongchang. If others were making such a noise, they would die without knowing how.
Shang Ming and Commander Yuan were shocked and confused. Why did Wantong suddenly act like this? Could it be that he had lost his mind and gone crazy? Is it worth it for such a trivial matter?
When he stopped laughing, Shang Ming couldn't help but ask: "Why is Commander Fang laughing?"
Wantong pointed and said: "I'm laughing at you for not knowing the right time!"
Shang Ming cursed secretly, "Ugly people are so weird" and asked, "What does Commander Wan mean by this?"
Wantong cupped his hands to the west, "I have already reported this matter to His Majesty, saying that this matter is between me and Fang Xiucai. We acted in a play together, but there was an accident, so it caused a stir."
Troubles.
But in order to settle the matter, I spoke to Fang Xiucai on a good terms, intending to resolve the matter so as not to cause any more trouble. And His Majesty said, good, I understand."
Both Shang Ming and Commander Yuan were familiar with Emperor Chenghua. When they heard this, their expressions changed slightly. The Emperor was a man who was afraid of trouble and advocated harmony. His rule was to deal with anyone who stirred up trouble.
Wantong laughed again, "I told the emperor that this is a matter between me and Fang Xiucai, and I want to put an end to the matter. But you outsiders are unyielding and aggressive, and even Fang Xiucai recruited you to deal with me together."
, it makes me overwhelmed. Isn’t this pitiful?
You must make things bigger when things can be settled easily. So what if you win this lawsuit? What you lose is the emperor's heart!
Your Majesty doesn’t care about the process. Whoever takes action first, the truth doesn’t matter! Your Majesty only has right and wrong in your heart, you are right and you are wrong!” (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
