Chapter 272 Heaven's Power is Unpredictable (1)

Since everyone is an official and there is no deep hatred, if one party is willing to find a way out, the other party can usually get over it. This is called self-cultivation.

How can the face issues of southerners and northerners transcend simple class sentiments?

I think back then, when Qin Dewei was still two or three years old, Kou Tianxu, the uncle of Mr. Kou, was serving as the Prime Minister of Yingtian Mansion at that time, and he had a good official reputation. Didn't this lead to connections?

"I still have something I want to ask your Excellency for advice. I will be your host today!" Qin Dewei said proactively.

Because he also remembered that the other party's father was a professional backbone like a doctor in the Ministry of Justice, and he must be familiar with the court's judicial affairs, so he could inquire about Feng En's affairs.

Moreover, the other party's father only left the Ministry of Justice at the end of last year, and he might have had access to the case files about Feng En.

Face is given to each other, so Mr. Kou said generously: "You have come all the way today, and I am the host. No need to compete with me!"

Then he said: "It's raining heavily outside, so let's not change places in the rain! Let the servants go to the restaurant to send a message and bring the food and wine boxes over!"

Qin Dewei was speechless. A tea shop is a place that sells tea and water. If you hold a banquet and eat and drink like this in a tea shop, will other people still do business? What will other customers think?

"Where are the other customers?" Mr. Kou asked.

Qin Dewei looked around and realized that all the other customers had disappeared at some point. Only the shopkeeper and waiter were left standing numbly inside and outside the counter, as well as a few followers.

It's raining so heavily outside that it can't stop people from running away

The main reason is that the two young masters of the government and county government seemed to be going to fight just now. One is the magistrate of the county, and the other is the order to destroy the family. Who dares to stay and cause trouble?

Pipa girl Pan Xiaoyu wanted to run away, but Master Kou held her down and refused to let go.

What else could Qin Dewei say? His second-generation official status was really not as good as Mr. Kou's, and his family education was not well-established, so there was nothing he could do about it.

And he is used to living in Nanjing. The people in the capital are broad-minded and are really not as afraid of officials as the people in other places. If it were people in the capital, they would definitely not hide away if something like this happened today, they would just watch and make a fuss.

After sitting down again, Mr. Kou first carefully asked Qin Dewei why he did not have the same surname as Zeng Zhixian, and then asked: "Brother Qin went north this time to visit his father?"

Qin Dewei replied: "I am going to the capital and passing by Liaocheng. After seeing my father, I will continue to go north."

Mr. Kou then said: "Brother Qin, you set off from Nanjing before the first lunar month. There must be something urgent? Then you have to stop for two or three days.

I have definite information that the river in the north is not completely clear yet, and it is impossible to sail through Texas unless you change overland.

Why don't you just rest in Liaocheng for a few days, and you don't have to worry, the river will be open to navigation in these few days, it won't be too long."

Qin Dewei took advantage of the situation and asked: "I went to the capital because of an old friend. I wonder if Brother Kou has ever heard of Lord Feng Enfeng of the Tunbu who was sentenced to prison in November last year?"

There are many slang words used by literati. The word "tunbu" with a very shameful pronunciation refers to the Tuntian Division of the Ministry of Industry.

Mr. Kou looked at Qin Dewei in surprise, probably because he couldn't understand why Qin Dewei went all the way north for Feng En.

According to his values, even if he has a little bit of incense, he won't be able to do this, right?

"Jun Zhen is a righteous man!" Mr. Kou first complimented him casually, and then said: "Everyone in the officialdom of the capital knows about Mr. Feng's affairs.

When my father left Beijing at the end of last year, he heard that the Holy One had a decree to go to Jinyiwei. If nothing can be found in the trial after the spring, Mr. Feng would be transferred from the Jinyiwei Prison to the Penal Department Prison."

Qin Dewei really didn't know about this latest change. He asked thoughtfully: "I only heard that people were transferred from the Ministry of Punishment to the Imperial Prison. This time, they were actually transferred from the Imperial Prison to the Ministry of Punishment. Is this really the Holy One's will?"

Mr. Kou nodded: "Of course it's the Holy One's will. Anyway, the power of God is unpredictable, so I can't understand it."

He also praised: "Master Feng is really a tough guy. I heard that he refused to admit guilt even after being tortured in the imperial prison. I think he will really be transferred to the Ministry of Punishment after the spring."

Just such a piece of information made Qin Dewei fall into deep thought.

Qin Dewei may have a better understanding of the current Emperor Jiajing than anyone else. Qin Dewei also has his own way of analyzing Emperor Jiajing's thoughts.

Five hundred years later, on the Internet, the ironic saying "overthinking leads to conspiracy theories" often appears. However, speculating on Emperor Jiajing's thoughts requires overthinking. No matter how much you speculate on conspiracy theories, you can't go too far.

The content of Mr. Feng's memorial is nothing more than a review of the ministers of the dynasty with mixed reviews, and then highlighted three important ministers.

As for what made Emperor Jiajing so angry? He even expressed opinions such as "criticism of the gift" and "qiujun"?

Therefore, Qin Dewei has always had a guess. Maybe Emperor Jiajing wanted to find an excuse to revive the topic of "big gifts", and Feng En, who was hit by a gun, was the tool he used to take advantage of it.

The original guess was just a guess, but the unconventional behavior of transferring from the Jinyiwei Prison to the Penal Department Heavenly Prison vaguely corroborated something, making Qin Dewei feel that his guess might be the truth.

Jinyiwei's imprisonment was a "lynching" by the emperor, and the procedure had nothing to do with the civil servants. The civil servants could pretend to be deaf and dumb during the process.

But if Feng En is transferred to the Prison Prison and the officials of the Criminal Department are to try Feng En, it will be equivalent to involving the civil servants and forcing them to take the initiative in disguise.

Emperor Jiajing wanted to see what the officials said about the "criticism of the gift", and to see if there were any available talents who could understand the emperor's heart.

If Qin Dewei made the above guess, most people would be confused. Isn't the great ceremony discussion already over? What's the point of the emperor raising this topic again?

At that time, the emperor refused to recognize the late emperor as his father, and refused to adopt the emperor as his first wife. He insisted on recognizing his biological father as his father. Then the mainstream public opinion disagreed. This was a great etiquette discussion.

After so many years of bloody struggle, although the ministers were unwilling to admit it, they could no longer defeat the emperor and had long since resigned themselves to their fate! Emperor, you can recognize whomever you like, don't delay the operation of the country!

But Qin Dewei knew that the ceremony was not over yet. The ministers thought that the emperor would be satisfied just by recognizing his father? He also wanted to send his father to the Ancestral Temple and give him a new temple name.

Thinking of this, Qin Dewei really wanted to turn around and leave, going back to Nanjing! This matter is too risky!

Mr. Feng, you are too capable. You were ruthlessly captured by the emperor and used as a tool after you got into trouble!

After Comet, everyone was in the memorial, why are you the only one who is so showy?

If you want to be a tool man, why not just work in Nanjing? For a novice, you have to play games on hell difficulty!
