Chapter seven hundred and thirty seventh three become tigers
Yang Tinghe finished talking to Fang Yingwu and was about to stand up to leave when he saw a letter coming in from the front door. Fang Yingwu opened it and read it, and after a few glances he sneered: "The forest is so big that there are really all kinds of birds!"
Yang Tinghe asked curiously: "What is this?"
Fang Yingwu didn't shy away and handed the paper over directly. Yang Tinghe lowered his head and saw that it was a government receipt. He took a closer look at the words on it and said in shock: "Has the Zhejiang Provincial and Street Department lost their minds and gone crazy?"
It turns out that according to the imperial system, each province would take turns sending craftsmen to Beijing to participate in construction every year, and would also recruit people who could read and write to serve as scribes in various yamen of the imperial court.
This year, Zhejiang Province added Fang Yingwu's name to the roster and submitted it to the Ministry of Industry, and withdrew the previous commission from Wanping County to serve on his behalf - of course, this commission was created by Fang Yingwu himself, otherwise who could draft him into service?
The Ministry of Works assigned Fang Yingwu to the team of laborers responsible for dredging ditches in the subdistrict office because "it will be rainy this summer and there is a fear of flooding in the capital." Finally, the subdistrict office sent a clerk to deliver the summons, and Fang Yingwu was recruited.
To do bookkeeping.
In Yang Tinghe's eyes, this was really a ridiculous thing. But such a ridiculous thing really happened in front of his eyes, which made him feel incredible, so he said to Fang Yingwu: "What the hell does he do, clown!"
Fang Yingwu sighed: "Originally, I should not enlist in the military service, and no one would have the idea to do so. But a while ago, for the sake of the country's national plan, I had to submit to Dongchang in the name of being recruited as a scribe.
This gives others an excuse. Since they are all serving in the military, is it possible that they can go to Dongchang as an errand but cannot go elsewhere?"
Yang Tinghe thought for a moment and then roughly understood. "Someone must have set up this situation, and they must have figured out what you were thinking and prepared all kinds of back-ups."
As for who created the situation, neither of them pointed out, but they knew it well without pointing out. Being able to control everything from Zhejiang Province to the Ministry of Industry and then to the ground in the capital requires great influence and power, and the DPRK and China
There can be several.
Fang Yingwu nodded and said: "I heard from my friends that someone in the Metropolitan Procuratorate is collaborating in an attempt to target me. If I disobey, the censors will definitely be impeached. Probably one of them is to impeach me.
Impeach me for openly defying the government and taking advantage of the situation to escape from service;
The second one was to impeach me for having bad character. I was obsessed with power and was indolent. I only wanted to covet the prestige of Dongchang and refused to work in the streets. But at that time, I had no excuse because I did go to Dongchang to work as an official but refused to go to the streets.
The living room serves as a book office."
Yang Tinghe was surprised. In his impression, Fang Yingwu had a close relationship with Kedao, but he did not expect that there were people in Kedao who were preparing to impeach Fang Yingwu with great fanfare.
Secondly, in today's dim temples, Ke Dao is almost the last bottom line and hope for justice in the Ming Dynasty, playing a huge role in checking and balancing those misguided bosses. But today, there are actually people who are ready to act as thugs for some people for personal gain.
The besieging party responds.
Fang Yingwu said disapprovingly: "What's so surprising about this? There are more than a hundred science and technology officials, who can speak out? And who doesn't want to put in his own people? As the saying goes, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds."
Yang Tinghe didn't think of any solution, and said helplessly: "If that's the case, then you want to go to the street hall? That's fine. As the saying goes, God will give great responsibilities to people here, so you should first stop others' mouths."
Fang Yingwu added: "I'm just afraid that if I go to the street hall, I'll encounter another accident. For example, if I lose my footing and fall into a flood channel, I won't be able to save him..."
Yang Tinghe immediately changed his expression and said: "How dare the traitor do this!" However, thinking of someone's reputation and magnanimity, Yang Tinghe felt that Fang Yingwu's worries were not unfounded. The death of a clerk who was recruited as a errand and the death of an official were two different things.
Just after sending Yang Tinghe away, Fang Yingwu stood at the gate and had not turned around. However, he saw two friends, Xiang Chengxian and Hong Song, coming hand in hand and appearing at the entrance of the alley. He had to step forward to greet him again. He joked: "What's the matter?
Something good happened? Why did you two arrive together?"
Xiang Chengxian and Hong Song both had serious faces. Xiang Da Yushi spoke first: "We didn't come together, we just met by chance at the entrance of the alley."
It seems that something big happened... Fang Yingwu invited the two of them in, and after serving tea again, Xiang Chengxian couldn't wait to say again: "I heard some discussions in the Procuratorate, saying that back then
Li Xueshi tried to recruit you as his son-in-law, but you were greedy for wealth, so you chose to marry Liu Ge's hometown."
Fang Yingwu said disdainfully: "It's nonsense and not worth refuting. This matter has been explained for a long time. In order to rescue my father who was imprisoned, I had to agree to be recruited by the Liu family and become the son-in-law of the Liu family.
A person should keep his word, how can he go back on his words? Therefore, he had to reject Teacher Li's kindness. Now there are still people who are not open to mentioning old things again, so it won't stir up any trouble."
Seeing that Fang Yingwu was full of confidence, Xiang Chengxian did not relax and continued: "When I went to other yamen to do business, I heard rumors that when you were in Yulin, you colluded with relatives and friends to manipulate the border market and made a fortune privately at the expense of the public."
Fang Yingwu was a little surprised that someone had mentioned this matter, but he still didn't take it to heart. "When we decided to open a border market, people without vision were afraid of the risks and held back.
For the imperial plan, I had no choice but to encourage my relatives and friends. It can be said that I used my own relatives and friends to take a risk. Fortunately, it worked out in the end. Not even a blind person can see the imperial court and benefit from it, so how can it be said to harm the public?"
Hong Song also spoke at this time: "I was in the Ministry of Household Affairs and heard some comments about you. It was said that you repeatedly colluded with Dongchang and framed court officials. It was also said that you gave women to the boss of Dongchang for the sake of power and profit.
"
After hearing Hong Song's words, Fang Yingwu gradually put away his relaxed demeanor and became serious. From this point of view, the doorway inside is not simple. No wonder Xiang Chengxian and Hong Song hurried over at the same time. Obviously, they also
Understand the problem.
In fact, Fang Yingwu doesn't care about just one or two rumors. People are afraid of being famous, and people are afraid of being strong. Who doesn't have all kinds of rumors about anyone who stands out? It's just a matter of more or less, sometimes just listen to it.
No need to make too much fuss.
But what is serious this time is not the rumors, but the spread of rumors itself. At this time, it is very abnormal for so many slanderous comments to suddenly spread at the same time.
It's just one or two things, but you can hear them everywhere, which means that there is someone behind the scenes who is deliberately adding fuel to the fire. The effects of sporadic, intermittent rumors and man-made, intensive rumors are completely different, and even essentially different.
.
It can be said that three people become tigers, from quantitative changes to qualitative changes. One is a harmless lace, which can be used for self-entertainment. The other is a weapon that can subvert oneself, but Fang Yingwu cannot help but take it seriously. (To be continued.)
