Chapter four hundred and eighty-six two angry people
After sending away Fang Yingwu, who had been "isolated" in Dongchang for several days, Wang Zhi sat in the lobby and thought about it carefully, but still couldn't remember what he had forgotten.
Just forget it. If there is something really important, Fang Yingwu will remind him. Since Fang Yingwu doesn't remind him, it means that the matter is of no importance.
In this way, Wang Zhi wholeheartedly indulged in the joy of the first hit of her comeback. By the way, she discussed her merits and rewards within the Dongchang, and at the same time continued to arrange the great cause of conquering the Jin Yiwei.
It is said that when Dongchang sent hundreds of troops to investigate the rumors in the streets and alleys near Gongyuan, in addition to asking "Have you heard the rumors about Fang Qingzhi and his son?", they also asked other questions in a very public way.
.
For example, "Have you ever heard the rumor that the chief examiner leaked the test questions?" Or, "Have you ever heard the rumor that the deputy examiner and a fellow examiner are colluding with each other to promote the test papers?"
This kind of investigation resulted in more and more rumors in a short period of time. From the chief examiner to the deputy chief examiner, everyone became involved in scandals, just like Fang Yingwu remembered in the entertainment industry in his previous life. It can be said that the spread of these rumors is largely due to
It should be placed on Dongchang Fanzi.
In fact, this situation was intentional... On that day, Fang Yingwu was worried that his own rumors could not be investigated clearly, so he had to make two preparations. While investigating his own rumors, he asked Dongchang to cleverly spread rumors from others to stir up trouble.
If the rumors about oneself cannot be found out in the end, then muddying the water is the countermeasure. When everyone is carrying rumors, the rumors about the Fang family are nothing. Fang Yingwu came up with this idea and also
It really comes from the entertainment industry of a certain century.
Now the first rumor has come to light and been clarified by irrefutable evidence. The Fang family and his son have completely recovered their innocence, but other rumors are still alive.
However, Eunuch Wang, who used super powerful actions to suppress rumors, achieved his goal and fired the first shot of his comeback. Then he stopped with joy, completely forgetting about the aftermath of other rumors... Even a certain perpetrator himself also
If you "forgot", remind Eunuch Wang.
Some people have not forgotten that the relatives and friends of the chief examiner Liu Jian and the deputy examiner Xie Qian could not help but yearn for the Dongchang to continue to dispatch large-scale efforts to pursue the rumors, but the Dongchang suddenly stopped and there was no movement!
Although the Qing Dynasty has been purifying itself, the damage of rumors is limited, and the imperial government cannot be shaken by a few unsubstantiated rumors. But rumors are rumors after all, and it is not a good thing if they are allowed to spread.
Some people in the imperial court regretted this. When the situation was unclear a few days ago, they should not have rashly attacked Wang Zhi, otherwise why would this happen?
It is probably because Wang Zhi is young and energetic that he lost his temper after being impeached and attacked a few days ago. Now he is deliberately indulging the rumors and ignoring them.
But there is nothing the princes can do. The Dongchang is the Emperor's Dongchang, and the eunuchs are the Emperor's personal slaves. The ministers have no power to instruct the Dongchang how to do things.
Moreover, the court officials soon discovered that Wang Zhi was not the only one who could make a temperamental young man...
After Wanping County Magistrate Fang Yingwu came out of the isolation in Dongchang and returned to the county office with great fanfare, the next day happened to be the day when Wanping County servants transported daily necessities, vegetables and rice to Gongyuan.
That night, Hong Song came from Dongcheng to Xicheng. He had a drink with Xiang Chengxian and Fang Yingwu. It was said to be the last party to celebrate Fang Yingwu's refutation of the rumors and before taking the exam.
The three of them have been close friends for many years and have no scruples about drinking. They all drink without distinguishing between east, west, north and south. The drunken Fang Yingwu took advantage of the wine and asked: "I may be able to get the test questions tomorrow. Brother Hong, do you need it?"
Xiang Chengxian and Hong Song looked at each other and laughed, "Brother Fang Xian, you really drank too much!"
Fang Yingwu did not respond to the ridicule and said directly: "There are special printers in the Gongyuan. Hundreds of copies of the test questions have to be printed in advance. They have probably started printing now. Some of the aspiring servants in the Gongyuan may already know the test questions.
.”
Xiang Chengxian questioned: "So what? You can't contact the people in Gongyuan, even if you send things to Gongyuan in person."
This is true. Nowadays, Gongyuan is heavily guarded both internally and externally, and the degree of isolation is far more strict than what Fang Yingwu remembered in the revolutionary era.
It was said that the delivery of daily necessities, vegetables and rice grains could only be delivered outside the side gate of the Gongyuan, and then the officers who delivered the things left immediately under the supervision of the officers and soldiers outside the wall.
Then the side door of Gongyuan was allowed to be opened, and the handymen inside came out to move things in. People inside and outside were strictly prohibited from contacting each other. Even the officers and soldiers patrolling and monitoring outside the wall were not allowed to get close to the handymen who came out to move things, let alone talk to them.
Fang Yingwu shook his head and shouted unscrupulously: "I'll go there in person tomorrow, but I won't leave. I just stand there and watch the Gongyuan servants move things in. What if I just say a few words? Let's see who dares.
If you doubt me again, who dares to impeach me again!"
Xiang Chengxian was astonished and then smiled bitterly for a few times and stopped talking. The Art of War said that reality is illusory and fictitious is real. Under the current situation, Fang Yingwu deliberately violated discipline in a high-profile manner and came into contact with the Gongyuan servants.
It will arouse others' suspicion.
It would probably only be seen as a young man who was young and energetic, deliberately taking the opportunity to vent his anger. After all, the court could not clear the Fang family's father and son, and there was even a trend of compromising to the rumors and letting the Fang family and his son avoid suspicion. In the end, they had to rely on the East
Factory, no wonder Fang Yingwu was angry.
It is even estimated that few people are supporting the impeachment of Fang Yingwu because of this. Firstly, Fang Yingwu has a good reputation, so others always have to worry about it. Secondly, Fang Yingwu is angry and deliberately goes out of his way to do things that are excusable.
Third, Yin Jian comes first. During this period of time, whoever has trouble with Fang Yingwu can get rid of him? How could he know that Fang Yingwu didn't deliberately show his weakness this time? This is the most realistic deterrent.
Half of the handymen in the Gongyuan were sent by Wanping County. Fang Yingwu must have placed reliable candidates. It is not difficult to find out the test questions, but the biggest problem is that there is no chance to spread the word. If you can get in touch...
Thinking of this, Xiang Chengxian knew that he should not speak next, and could only leave it to Fang Yingwu and Hong Song to decide.
Hong Song also understood what Fang Yingwu meant. He lowered his head and pondered for a long time. He was probably making a difficult decision. It was an exam that determined the fate of his life. He had the opportunity to take a test question before the exam. This kind of temptation was not something that ordinary people could resist.
After a while, Hong Song raised his head, and the other party said seriously: "Brother Fang Xian, I understand your kindness, but this is not the right path, and it is not without risks. How can I put you in danger, Brother Fang Xian, for the sake of my own fame?"
?
Besides, this approach is really an unbelievably dangerous move. Brother Fang Xian listened to his brother's advice and said, don't have such an idea again in the future, otherwise, if you make the slightest mistake, your life will be ruined.
All in all, I’d better let my brother take matters of fame and glory by himself! Victory or failure depends on God’s will. Brother Fang, please be at ease and don’t worry about me.”
Fang Yingwu also felt that he had drunk too much and was talking nonsense. After hearing Hong Song's advice, he sighed: "Brother Hong is really a good friend! Brother Xiang is far inferior to you!"
Xiang Chengxian rolled his eyes and pointed his middle finger at Fang Yingwu. (To be continued...)
