Chapter three hundred and eighty second small tangle
Although Lou Tianhua didn't quite understand the meaning of Fang Yingwu's words, it did not prevent him from continuing to dissuade Fang Yingwu. As a qualified court official, he must finish his words and fulfill his responsibility of assisting. As for whether the boss listens or not,
Listening is another matter.
Lou Tianhua thought for a while and then said: "Proprietor! After I failed to study, I also spent ten or twenty years in the capital. During this period, I also heard and witnessed some officials. I know that this is a strong point and it is difficult to do it.
I don’t know how many passionate people want to be a blue sky, but after being in the limelight, they eventually fell into the dust. There are really only a few who can leave a reputation. The proprietor, you are the chosen one from Tsinghua University, you are young and promising, and you have a long future. Why do you need to take up the post?
Risky and aggressive at the beginning?”
Fang Yingwu chuckled a few times and asked: "Since ancient times, who is the most famous and successful person for not fearing the powerful, being honest and selfless?"
Lou Tianhua thought for a while and then replied: "If your guess is correct, it should be Bao Longtu Bao, a bachelor of the previous Song Dynasty, who got the name of Qingtian. To this day, the people still call him Bao Qingtian."
Fang Yingwu asked again: "Why is Bao Qingtian the most successful and also the most famous? But others are always not as good as him?"
This question seems simple, but when you think about it carefully, it is really difficult to answer. What is the reason? Lou Tianhua pondered for a long time but couldn't figure it out.
Fang Yingwu smiled slightly, went to the hall, and re-examined the batch of adverbs in his hand. He called Lou Tianhua in, who was still thinking hard, and asked questions while reading the adverbs.
After asking and looking around, Fang Yingwu picked out a complaint accusing Yongping Bo of seizing real estate and put it aside alone.
The complaint was submitted by a businessman named Chen Bie Xue. The case was simple. There was a shop in a good location near the Bell and Drum Towers for sale. The plaintiff, Chen Bie Xue’s father, bought it first. But then the Yong Ping family also took a fancy to it.
However, Chen Bie Xue's father refused to give in to this shop, so the Yongping Mansion forcibly took over the shop and beat Chen Bie Xue's father into serious injuries.
In addition, Fang Zhixian picked another case and picked out a complaint against the family members of the internal officials and young prison guards, and put it together with the previous complaint against Yong Pingbo.
Lou Tianhua saw this and nodded secretly. The proprietor was not completely dizzy. At least he still knew how to pick weak persimmons. This Uncle Yongping was a relatively weak one among the Dukes. The head of the family was only in his twenties.
He holds the title of Beijing Camp Guerrilla General, and none of his in-laws are very powerful.
As for why another eunuch was selected, Lou Tianhua couldn't figure it out. But with the owner's thinking, there was nothing wrong with it.
After completing these things, it was noon, and Fang Zhixian's morning passed like this. After lunch in the dining room, Fang Yingwu was about to take a nap, when the front door came to report: "There is someone outside holding a Dongchang name card. Come here.
Please see the county magistrate."
What did Dongchang want to do with him? Full of doubts, Fang Yingwu waved his hand and asked the doorman to bring him in, while he sat in the back hall and waited.
After a while, someone came in. Fang Yingwu looked up and stood up in shock. He stepped forward to greet him and said, "Shang Gong, why are you here?"
The person who came was none other than Shang Ming, the Admiral of the Dongchang. At this time, he was wearing a wide robe and long sleeves, just like an old scholar. If he were not familiar with it, no one would have thought that he was the Admiral of the Dongchang... Fang Yingwuwanwu
Unexpectedly, it was Shang Ming himself who came incognito and undercover.
Shang Ming replied: "Some things are not convenient for others to say, so I came to interview you personally."
Fang Yingwu smiled, and he suddenly felt that Shang Ming was very interesting. One moment he could bluff and torture you, and the next moment he could compromise; one moment he could act like a factory official, and the next moment he could lower himself.
She took the initiative to visit her.
Thinking of this, Fang Yingwu took the initiative to ask: "I wonder what Shang Gong has to say when he comes here?"
Shang Ming sat down without waiting for greeting, and then replied: "Yesterday, the children went to the West Factory to arrest Wei Qianhu. This was not my intention. In fact, the emperor issued an order to arrest him yesterday, so we in the East Factory could not
If you dare to resist the order, you can only arrest Wei Qianhu and imprison him."
Fang Yingwu waved his hand and said: "Master Shang, there is no need to explain. What does this have to do with me?" Shang Ming quickly answered: "If Mr. Wang asks, please tell me something."
So that was the case, Fang Yingwu suddenly realized! Eunuch Wang had been arrogant and domineering in the past few years, leaving an indelible shadow in Eunuch Shang's heart. This time he was ordered to arrest Wei Ying, a member of Qianhu of Xichang. Who knows if Wang Zhi will be angry and take revenge?
Although Eunuch Wang left for Xuanda University in a hurry, as if he was escaping on purpose, Shang Ming knew that people like Wang Zhi could turn over at any time, so he still did not dare to take it lightly.
Fang Yingwu understood that Shang Ming was very aware of his friendly relationship with Wang Zhi, so he talked about it to him, which was like shouting to Wang Zhi from a distance, explaining the difficulties he had to do.
But Fang Yingwu would not agree to anything verbally, he just pretended not to understand and mumbled a few words.
"There is another matter that requires Mr. Fang's assistance." Shang Ming started talking again, "It's about Wei Qianhu. I heard that Wei Qianhu once embezzled three thousand taels of silver from Wanping County?"
Fang Yingwu thought thoughtfully. If Eunuch Shang was specifically entrusting him to send a message to Wang Zhi, it would be making a fuss out of a molehill. Sure enough, he had other purposes. He said deliberately and doubtfully: "This is between Wanping County and Xichang."
What's the matter? Lord Shang asks why?"
Shang Ming said frankly: "Your Majesty ordered me to arrest Wei Qianhu for interrogation. I must give him an explanation. I think it would be a good idea to make a fuss about this matter."
Fang Yingwu understood again that if the emperor wanted to kill the dog Wei Ying, Dongchang, as the specific manager, would have to find some excuse. But Wei Ying had been in Xichang for many years, and most of the things he had been involved in were political struggles.
The involvement behind the scenes was complicated, and sometimes even the emperor himself was behind it, making it impossible to disclose it publicly.
In contrast, if Wei Ying is punished with the crime of embezzlement, there will be relatively less trouble and the purpose of punishment can be achieved. Just like when the emperor punished himself, in order to avoid trouble, he had to find another crime of "colluding with internal officials".
It’s the same thing again this time.
Just at this juncture, I went to the West Factory to collect debts and made a big fuss, and spread the matter of the three thousand taels of silver to the East Factory... Eunuch Shang must have heard about this and felt like he was trying to sleep.
A pillow-like surprise.
If Dongchang wanted to investigate Wei Qianhu's embezzlement, of course it would need the cooperation of Wanping County, and it would also have to be explained to Eunuch Wang through Fang Yingwu, so Shang Ming came to talk about the matter in person.
But Fang Yingwu is now caught in a little entanglement... Will he cooperate with Eunuch Shang or not?
Wei Ying is a very unpleasant person, and it is natural to like to see someone who can trick him. But politicians cannot act emotionally. Now that Wang Zhiyuan has escaped, if Wei Ying is convicted, I am afraid that Xichang will fall like dominoes, and the emperor will adapt.
Go to the West Factory if you like it. If eunuch Wang Zhiwang’s West Factory collapses, will it be good for you?
