Chapter 238 Continue to keep a low profile

At this time, Shao Chen was not aware of the problem. [This article comes from] He thought that after successive efforts to build momentum, it was already the peak moment for him to control the right to speak. If he did not take the opportunity to suppress Fang Yingwu, a strong opponent, what would happen to him?

hour?

Originally, his idea was not wrong from a technical point of view, but unfortunately the situation was no longer what it was before he entered the guarding eunuch's mansion.

His accomplices and family members couldn't explain clearly to Young Master Shao in front of everyone, so they had no choice but to force the ignorant Young Master Shao to leave quickly and leave the gate of the guarding eunuch's mansion until there were no outsiders around.

, and then told Mr. Shao about what happened to Fang Yingwu just now.

In this way, Shao Chen just woke up from a dream. Just after he entered the guarding eunuch's house, the world was completely turned upside down! Master Shao felt very vicissitudes of life, and he had a feeling that "three days in the mountains, a thousand years have passed in the world".

Why did things become like this? The preparations were absolutely foolproof and there were no loopholes from all aspects, so why was a loophole taken advantage of again?

Just like the last West Lake gathering, no effort was spared in manpower and material resources to create such a great momentum, and it seems that everything will be fulfilled in the end...

This blow was so serious that Mr. Shao suddenly felt despair and sighed with desolation: "I hate having to press gold thread every year to make wedding clothes for others! Who are you doing all this hard work for?"

Today's operation was originally coordinated and organized by the Shao family. The Shao family left, and the other protagonist Fang Yingwu looked like he wouldn't be able to get out for a while, so the crowd naturally dispersed hastily.

However, another famous person was included in the public eye, so public opinion was still fermenting, and the indignation of scholars was still greater than before. The situation in Qingyun Street was turbulent, and the mood became more depressed, angry, and extremely unstable. I also heard that even the governor and the chief minister issued official documents.

I went to persuade the guarding eunuch.

It was not until two days later that Fang Yingwu, who had been detained for two days, was released from the guarding eunuch's house due to huge pressure from public opinion.

But Scholar Fang did not walk out of the gate of the eunuch's mansion like a hero and accept the cheers of the crowd. Instead, he chose to leave quietly from the small door at midnight without disturbing anyone.

If Eunuch Li, the guarding officer, had not announced that he had been released, and at the same time this was confirmed by several of Fang Yingwu's friends, others would not have known that Fang Yingwu had been released.

At the same time, Eunuch Li also announced to the outside world that he had suspended the eunuch responsible for the incident from the City Shipping Department and asked the emperor to punish this person.

The incident has developed to such an extent that there is an acceptable preliminary result. Most scholars have to prepare for the provincial examination and do not have too much mental entanglement. It is already very good to get an explanation from the guarding eunuch.

However, Fang Daxiucai, a figure who sacrificed his life for righteousness, still continues to live in an unknown residence. He still does not make much public appearances. Not many people have seen him. He is low-key and quiet.

Only one of his poems and works was passed down orally, dotting the examination-preparation life of scholars in the provincial capital. It can be said that his person is not seen but his voice is heard.

Everyone praised and said, this is the high-spirited and upright manner of "taking off your clothes when the matter is over and hiding your merits and fame". Compared with the Shao family's peacock-like style, fearing that the world will not know it, my friend Fang is indeed a low-key true gentleman.

also.

"I have no choice but to keep a low profile." Fang Yingwu, who was hiding in his residence and refusing to go out or see any guests, touched his face and sighed to his concubine, Sister Lan.

"Others think that my husband, I, was tortured and mistreated in the eunuch's mansion. Now I am not only covered with bruises but also in a state of embarrassment. But do you think I look miserable? If I meet outsiders, I'd better hide first if I'm afraid of being suspected.

good."

"But you have really lost weight." "Others can't see this like you can."

Apart from close relatives, the only people who saw Fang Yingwu in person were Xiang Chengxian and Hong Song, two close friends from the same hometown, and perhaps the oiran lady who had a rough idea of ​​what was going on.

Regarding this matter, the young master said with great understanding: "I have really realized what it means to be strong. Let him be strong. The breeze blows on the hills, and he is allowed to do whatever he wants. The bright moon shines on the river. It is to use force to strike later and use the Shao family.

Do you want to highlight yourself during the critical period of your actions?"

Mr. Hong sighed with pity and said to the other party: "Your actions have really made the Shao family suffer. I feel a little sympathy for them."

Fang Yingwu shook his head and said: "Actually, there must be something hateful about poor people, and there must be a cause for every effect. It wasn't me who deceived them, it was their own ambitions that deceived them.

In other words, their ambitions that did not match their strength had deceived them, and they had been deceived by overthrowing Shao Chen's talents. That Shao friend had no foundation for celebrities in terms of talent, knowledge, and IQ, but the Shao family wanted to praise him hard, and it was inevitable that he would play

fire**.

No one is forcing them to do anything. A bait is placed in front of them, and they can choose not to take it. If they are not greedy, will they take the bait? If they do not forcefully gain reputation in a high-profile way, will it cause rebellion in the end?

The so-called borrowing power is not about actions, but the greed of human nature. It was this greed that caused them to lose their wits and eat the bait thrown by Eunuch Li."

Hong Song asked: "Is this bait actually thrown by you?"

Fang Yingwu replied unceremoniously: "So what? Since the Shao family has chosen to enter Vanity Fair, they must be aware of the rules of the game. Do you still expect me to give up tenderly, and to give it up to a young man who is actually a young man?"

A young master who is far worse than me?"

Hong Song sighed again, a little frustrated. "After seeing what you did, I felt that this matter of fame and fortune is too complicated for me."

Fang Yingwu smiled and said: "Simple or complex, it all depends on the human heart. I just worry about my life. Everyone has their own fate. You can be more simple. There is no need to imitate me."

Hong Song had always felt that as long as he passed the imperial examination, the starting point of a scholar was not far apart. To determine how far one could become an official, the most important thing was personal opportunity. If the opportunity was good, one could naturally be ranked as Prime Minister.

Okay, then let me become a subordinate.

But now he has a strong feeling that if both he and Fang Yingwu pass the imperial examination, even if they have the same fame and the same starting point, Fang Yingwu will definitely be ranked above him in the future.

And it exceeded it by more than a little bit. Even if his opportunities were better than Fang Yingwu's, Fang Yingwu's achievements were destined to be higher than his own.

"Fortunately, my advantage is that I have a good understanding of people. I can tell early on that things are not just things in the pool." Young Master Hong smiled bitterly at himself.

After the incident of guarding the eunuch's mansion, the Shao family also temporarily stopped, which made many people sigh. Without a big benefactor, there was no one to sponsor the food, drink and fun activities, and Qingyun Street suddenly became deserted.

But as time went by, as the time for the provincial examination approached, the scholars gradually focused on studying and taking exams, and their focus gradually changed to the examiner's hobbies, the trends of exam questions, and so on.

ps: There is a big problem with the rhythm of this code word now. I can't write it for a while, and I write two or three chapters at the same time. I will make up for yesterday's first.
