Chapter four hundred and eighty fifth turning the clouds over the rain
This time, the person who said in Shangshu, "To avoid suspicion, I asked Fang Qing to be the same examiner" was none other than Ni Jinxian, the famous "Censor of Washing Birds".
Three years ago, Censor Ni had been the Censor for six years and had accumulated enough qualifications. When it came time to move beyond the next level, his backer Wan Shoufu also agreed to the matter.
At that time, Yushi Ni attacked Fang Yingwu, who was imprisoned. He was supposed to beat the drowned dog, which was a foolproof and refreshing thing. However, unexpectedly, he was defeated by Fang Yingwu in the Golden Palace and was accused of colluding with Dongchang.
The big hat was embarrassing in front of the officials.
Fang Yingwu's salty fish turned around, and Yushi Ni had no hope of promotion, so he had to serve as a censor for another three years. A censor who has been a censor for six years is a senior censor, and can be directly promoted to a fifth-rank official. But for a nine-year censor, he is a senior censor.
Censor... that is the boss and the cold bench.
But life in the Fang family was prosperous. In the blink of an eye, Fang Qingzhi had risen from the rank of fifth-grade Ci minister, and Fang Yingwu had become the little blue sky in the capital. Promotion and salary increase were just around the corner. How could this not make Yu Shi Ni jealous?
?This time out of private anger, he finally couldn't hold it back anymore.
However, Yushi Ni was not stupid. He did not accuse the Fang family and his son in a hoarse voice, but played the banner of fairness, objectivity and frankness.
It is just that rumors are spreading, and in order to appease the scholars, the court is asked to pay attention to avoid suspicion. After all, there are objective problems between father and son, both internally and externally. Comrade Fang Qingzhi should also consider the truth and take the initiative to resign as the examiner.
There is still a market for this kind of statement. The more senior officials are, the more accustomed they are to compromise. It is not unacceptable to compromise with the rumors that have not been cleared up in order to stabilize the situation. Probably the Fang family and his son will be very happy.
I'm unhappy, but it makes sense to sacrifice for the sake of the overall situation.
Not to mention gossip, he said that Eunuch Wang originally wanted to delay it for two more days to let more people jump out, but if he delayed it any longer, he was afraid that the rumors would turn into truth. The Fang family and his son had to obey the overall situation and avoid suspicion.
At this point, Fang Yingwu would definitely fall out with her. Fang Yingwu still valued the qualifications of his father, a fellow examiner.
Therefore, Eunuch Wang had no choice but to quickly launch a thunderous operation. He immediately dispatched hundreds of Dongchang officials to surround the Daxing County government office. In a flurry of excitement, they arrested forty or fifty people in one breath and escorted them back to Dongchang.
Only a few kitty officials were left who were stunned and speechless.
After this news spread, the court seemed to be in chaos again. In fact, the Daxing County government offices in the capital could only be regarded as low-level government offices that did coolies. Eunuch Wang arrested only subordinate staff and staff, and did not arrest officials without authorization.
But what Wang Zhi did five or six years ago, or what he did, was really impressive. At that time, the entire imperial court went through a major sweep. Eunuch Wang of the West Factory had unparalleled momentum for a while, and everyone thought that the second Wang Zhen was about to appear.
.
However, Wang Zhi kept a low profile for a few years after that, especially in the past two years, he stayed away from the border towns and did not care about the affairs of the capital, so the old things gradually faded away.
But this time, Wang Zhi's arrest of dozens of people from the yamen in one breath awakened the memory of the courtiers. Everyone would exclaim, is it possible that Wang Zhi will return to his old ways after he returns to the factory?
Although the county government is small, it is also an official government office. This time it is the county government, so where will it be next time? If you don’t speak for Daxing County this time, who will speak for yourself next time? It’s hard to guarantee that Eunuch Wang didn’t want to pass this time
Action to deliberately test the courtiers!
The ministers who shared the same hatred with the enemy and were wary of danger in times of peace went to Shu to discuss the matter and impeached Wang Zhi for excessive arrests. However, Wang Zhi also wrote a secret memorial, which was delivered to the emperor earlier than the minister's memorial. This was the advantage of eunuchs.
The memorials submitted by foreign ministers had to go through many procedures to be conveyed, and the emperor might not be able to read them carefully with his own eyes. However, eunuchs like Wang Zhi could go directly to the palace to confront the emperor in person, or they could directly deliver the secret memorials to the emperor.
The advantage in this aspect is much greater than that of ministers. In many cases, ministers lose to eunuchs not because they are not as smart as eunuchs, but because eunuchs can "prejudge" them.
In the secret report, Dongchang Admiral Wang Zhi used a very tight chain of witnesses to prove that the source of a certain rumor in the examination room was an aide from Youzhi County, Daxing County, and that someone deliberately framed the Fang family and his son through rumors!
The emperor was also a little surprised. First, he was surprised that Wang Zhi could check out the rumors so clearly. Second, he was surprised that this was actually done by the magistrate of Daxing County...
It was dog-eating-dog-fighting among civil servants again, so the emperor would have nothing to do with him... Zhu Pi, the emperor of Chenghua, "got it", then sent the secret report to the cabinet and the Ministry of Personnel, and then gave up.
When the secret report of Wang Zhi, the admiral of the East Factory, was made public, the court went from a state of explosion to a state of uproar... The two "unexpected" people had the same thoughts as the emperor. I didn't expect that they turned out to be Youzhi County of Daxing County.
!
Another question that arises is: Why did Youzhi County create rumors about Fang’s father and son for no reason? Some people dug up the allusion. Years ago, Youzhi County teamed up with the eunuchs in the palace to frame Fang Yingwu. It was exposed. And then it was dug up again.
Come out, You Zhixian is a disciple of the great scholar Liu Jue...
Spreading rumors, which often harms others and does not benefit oneself, is hated by almost all ministers. However, the initiator is rarely caught. Especially if the county magistrate is caught, he will definitely be dismissed from office.
Of course, the matter would not end so easily. After the truth was revealed, various relatives and friends of the Fang family jumped out to speak up. Yushi Ni, who was clamoring for Fang Qingzhi to be removed from the examination, was immediately attacked by a group, and countless old stories were exposed.
.
As the famous bird-washing censor, Ni Yushi washes birds from Wan'an, so it is well known that he is a disciple of Wan Shoufu. This time he jumped out to deal with the Fang family and his son, which will inevitably attract people's imagination again.
Qingliu in Chao Zhong all sighed, the world is really difficult right now, and it is not easy to stay upright. Fang Qingzhi just started to stand out, and Fang Yingwu also showed his prominence, but he was suppressed by the forces of the first auxiliary and the former auxiliary.
.
In the surging public opinion, as a gentleman who was almost sad to be "suppressed by the first assistant and the previous assistant", the Fang family's integrity index suddenly and inexplicably increased by two percentage points...
Two flowers bloomed, one on each branch. Wang Zhi couldn't help but feel happy when she saw herself turning her hands into clouds and rain, playing with public opinion and emotions in her palms. She had never had such an experience, not even when she was in power last time.
Never had this experience!
So she couldn't help but ran to Fang Yingwu and sighed: "This feeling is so refreshing, I can't stop!"
Fang Yingwu only felt that this sentence was very familiar. It seemed that it was the second time in recent days that someone around him said it... There was Xiang Chengxian before him, and Wang Zhi after him. It seemed that they were all close to Zhu.
Naked.
"Don't worry about yourself, it's time to let me out!" Fang Yingwu urged. Now that the truth has been revealed, there is no need for him to "self-isolate" in Dongchang to prove his innocence.
Wang Zhi frowned and muttered: "But I always feel that I have forgotten something?"
Fang Yingwu laughed a few times, "Then forget about it!"
