The order of the court meeting returned to normal. At the same time, what happened outside the Meridian Gate reached the ears of the emperor on Jintai. It was impossible not to report this to the emperor.
"Fang Yingwu? Take someone in court?" Zhu Jianshen was stunned for a moment.
Then the emperor remembered another thing. There was a secret report yesterday that Fang Yingwu planned to demolish the Baoguo Temple, which was conveniently located in order to make money. This made the queen mother very unhappy and nagged her a few words. Although Fang Yingwu looked like
It's for official business. Wanping County's treasury has been in deficit for years and it does need to open up the source of funds, but royal matters should be more important!
Zhu Jianshen came to the throne for seventeen or eighteen years, and he saw a lot of the faces of such upright ministers. They often used the banner of "state affairs" and did not take the royal family's face seriously at all!
Just like the Lantern Festival more than ten years ago, when he lit more lanterns for his mother in the palace out of filial piety, he was scolded and scolded by a boring official whose name he couldn't remember.
It’s just an example!
The emperor woke up and saw that Yushi Jiuyi was still waiting for his order, so he said: "What kind of behavior is this? We can avoid going to court without the perpetrator! Who is the other one? Go back and close the door.
Three days of self-reflection!”
Going to court means meeting and paying homage to the emperor. In name, it is an honor for ministers. The specific form is to attend the morning court. There are two situations in which you can avoid going to court. The first is a favor to an old and sick minister, so that he can save energy and live longer.
sky;
There is also a second situation. If the minister is young and strong, it is a "punishment" to be exempted from imperial ginseng. The implication is that the emperor dislikes you and does not want to see you for the time being, so go away and cool down! In other words, exempted from imperial ginseng is a "punishment".
Although North Korean ginseng may not have practical significance, it can be seen as a political trend...
At least for the Emperor of Chenghua, this punishment is very appropriate. In any case, after all, Fang Yingwu has just had a favor with the royal family, and it is not appropriate to be dismissed from office, demoted, and hit with a stick. Just give him a symbolic punishment. He, Zhu Jianshen, is really
A kind emperor!
When Fang Yingwu outside the Meridian Gate heard the emperor's decree, he sighed and became stunned. He was speechless. This was indeed Zhu Jianshen's style of dealing with things. He did not seek to solve problems, nor did he distinguish between right and wrong, but just wanted to be harmonious.
....If it weren’t for this special occasion in the palace, how could he, a mere magistrate of Yingwu County, have the ability to catch Uncle Yongping when he left the palace?
After careful calculation, it turns out that the other party suffered a little loss in terms of things and was punished so as not to go to the imperial court. Compared with going home to reflect on oneself behind closed doors for three days, it is clear who is lighter and who is heavier.
The imperial guard who came to convey the order cupped his hands and said, "Master Fang, hand over your tooth plaque and please leave the palace!"
Yes, since he is "exempted from court attendance", then Fang Yingwu is not eligible to enter the palace, and naturally he has to hand in the dental plaque as a certificate of entry.
Yongping Bo'anzhi, who was still wearing a cowhide rope around his neck, heard this and yelled at Fang Yingwu: "You dog official, don't let me go!" Since Fang Yingwu has lost the qualification to enter the palace, he is even less qualified to be in the palace at noon.
Arrest people outside the door!
It has to be said that Fang Yingwu's career as magistrate of Wanping County was cast a shadow. However, Magistrate Fang did not seem to be affected. He summoned Lou Tianhua with great interest that day and asked, "Wanping and Daxing are both the same."
Guo County is attached to the capital city. Why is Wanping poor but Daxing rich?"
Lou Tianhua replied: "Because there are many merchants in Daxing and few in Wanping." Fang Yingwu slapped the table and said: "Yes! There is no stability without farmers, and there is no wealth without business. Then why are there so many merchants in Daxing?"
Lou Tianhua began to suspect that the owner's IQ was also problematic. He wanted to ask such a simple question? "Daxing is located in Dongcheng. It is close to the Tongzhou Canal, which naturally occupies a convenient location. As a result, merchants gather and the county treasury can record accounts more effectively. .”
Fang Yingwu put his hand on his chin, thoughtfully: "That's true. Then we should think of ways to increase revenue for the county, so as to reduce the deficit."
Lou Tianhua rolled his eyes, proprietor, are you careless? At this time, why don't you quickly do some activities to consolidate your position, why do you care about these useless things for the time being? Don't even think about being a county magistrate, everything you think about is in vain. , and you are about to be transferred. When the handover comes, the shortfall of three thousand taels will be borne entirely by you!
Lou Tianhua then reminded: "Rumors have spread in the yamen and are being discussed everywhere. It is said that there is a brother of the Queen Mother in the Baoguo Temple. The proprietor, you are urging the demolition of the temple. The news has spread to the palace and has offended the Queen Mother! "
Fang Yingwu turned his attention back and asked curiously: "How do subordinates know so clearly? How did it spread so quickly?"
"I asked Zhang Gui to inquire. It is said that these statements came from the mouth of Qian County Cheng's disciples."
"Qian County Cheng?" Fang Yingwu realized something. He sneered repeatedly: "I didn't see it before, but it turns out that this is not an honest person."
Lou Tianhua bowed and said: "It's a shameful thing to say, but I can't blame Qian County Prime Minister for thinking about it. The ancients said that if Qin loses its deer, the whole world will chase it away. Doesn't the proprietor understand the reason?"
The implication of Lou Tianhua is that you, the proprietor, have put yourself in a difficult situation. When others see the hope of replacing you, they will naturally have different thoughts. And it is very smooth. If the position of Wanping County Magistrate changes drastically in a short period of time, In order to smooth the transition, it is not surprising that Qian County Cheng, a veteran, was promoted to the county magistrate on the spot.
Fang Yingwu continued to sneer: "Is this more than the so-called rumors?"
Lou Tianhua hesitated several times before he finally made up his mind and said: "Rumors say, proprietor, you are too young and only know how to be bookish. Don't look at the things like breaking into the West Factory, closing down the store, and demolishing the temple. In fact, you are a rabbit." The tail won’t grow any longer!
It is also said that proprietor, you have made the royal family unhappy and have been stripped of your qualifications to serve in the imperial court. Recently, Yong Pingbo has joined forces with the nobles of the capital to impeach you for acting domineering and bullying noble ministers. I am afraid that proprietor, you will not be able to sit in this county magistrate position for a long time. !”
As Lou Tianhua spoke, he sighed and began to worry about his future and fate. After all, the proprietor was a young man at heart, and he suddenly took power for the first time. This was a double-edged sword that he could not control at all. He had tried to persuade him one after another. Several times, it's a pity that the proprietor insists on having his own way... It seems that in a few days, I may have to find a job again.
Fang Yingwu summoned his follower Wang Ying and asked, "You asked around in tea shops and wine shops on the streets, how did the people spread the word?"
Wang Ying and Youyou replied proudly: "The master had a fight with Yong Pingbo in the street, and seized the goods in Yong Pingbo's shop. There was a lot of commotion. The people all praised the master for not being afraid of violence and resisting the powerful. There is an ancient style of strong leadership. Over the years in the capital, it is rare to have someone like me who dares to make decisions for the people!"
Lou Tianhua stumbled and sighed: "What's the use of people's hearts? If people's hearts were useful, none of these nobles would be left in the capital long ago!"
At this time, the outside doorman came to report: "Yongping Bofu sent a steward to the Yazhong to ask for an audience with the eldest master! He said that he asked the eldest master to remove the seal of the store and pay compensation and return the goods!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, novels.

ps: I skipped work today... By the way of calculation, you guys probably have a lot of monthly tickets! The above is just joking, mainly because I owe someone else a single chapter to promote the book, but I haven’t had the chance to update the single chapter in the past few days, which is really delayed.
