Ever since Wu Zhi was taken from Kaifeng Mansion to Yushitai, he knew that a disaster was coming. What was even more frightening was that he met his "old friend" Yu E here. The prison cell in Yushitai was not a prison cell. At least it gave the scholar-bureaucrats their last dignity.
.
There is only a thick wooden fence separating the two people, and the room not only has pens, ink, paper and inkstones, but also a good bed and a clean toilet. These conditions are much better than those in Kaifeng Mansion.
But Wu Zhi would rather be in Kaifeng Mansion. Although the censor's prison cell looks good, the censor is different from the officials in Kaifeng Mansion or Dali Temple. They want to dig out the "meat" from themselves and squeeze out the "blood"
Come.
Compared to Wu Zhi, Yu E is more aware of the power of the Yushitai. The reason why this place is called Wutai is because the Yushi is likened to crows. As long as they appear, there will be no good.
The supervisory censor is in charge of supervising hundreds of officials, inspecting counties and counties, correcting prisons and prisons, and upholding court rituals. Although his official rank is not high, he can directly report to the emperor and impeach officials who violate laws and disciplines and have their bodies eaten without food. This is a person who specializes in offending people.
If you are not careful, you will be retaliated against. Therefore, the supervisory censors are generally young and energetic officials of noble rank.
And the most terrible thing is that the person who caught him communicating with Wu Zhi this time was Xue Kui. This man has always been upright and strict, so he directly handed the matter over to Han Yi, who served as the censor of Shi Zhi and miscellaneous affairs, for trial.
The person who serves the censor and knows the miscellaneous matters is usually a senior censor, who is in charge of the general affairs of the censorship station. He can be said to be the de facto director of the censorship station, and he can be said to be an upright person.
Han Yi is famous for his integrity and profound background. He is the son-in-law of Wang Dan, the prime minister of the late emperor's dynasty!
Someone in the court had long said that Han Yi was highly appreciated by the Heavenly Family and was a talented person summoned by the late emperor. In time, he could be ranked among the three nobles. If such a person comes to investigate him, it goes without saying that Wang Qinruo's big tree has fallen!
Looking at the confused Wu Zhi across from him, Yu E only hated him for being so stupid. Now that he was here, he already knew everything he needed to know, and he actually sent his servants to go around him to find Wang Xianggong. How could such information be leaked?!
Even if he didn't leak the news loudly, he would still be disgusted by Wang Xianggong for violating official rules. As a broker, he naturally has his own reasons for being a broker...
Wu Zhi wanted to speak several times but was stopped by Yu E's eyes. The reason why the two of them were so close must be a trick of the censors, in order to let others know what he said and let others catch him.
It became a means of criticizing Wang Xianggong.
The two of them just looked at each other without saying a word, which made the supervisory censors waiting in the censor's Taichung get nothing. Han Yi shook his head slightly and left the cell. He knew that these two people would not reveal anything about bribery.
of details.
It seems that we can only interrogate the two of them separately and use evidence to bring them in. As for the evidence... Thinking of the servants of the Wang family he met at the Yamen Gate today, Han Yi couldn't help but touch the invitation in his sleeve pocket and could only shake his head.
wry smile.
He is the son-in-law of the Wang family of Sanhuai, so it is reasonable for Wang Yuan to invite him, not to mention that Wang Yong, his uncle, is accompanying him, so he really can't shirk it.
Now Han Yi is afraid that someone will come looking for him. Of course he is aware of the impact of Wu Zhi's prison in the court. How many people hope that Wang Qinruo will be dismissed, and how many people hope that it will not affect him.
After the people were brought back from Wang Zhen of Kaifeng Prefecture, there were voices of opposition in the court, claiming that the two men were of low moral character because they were handed over to Dali Temple for investigation. However, those who objected deliberately avoided this matter.
The most important thing is related to the king of the dynasty!
Han Yi didn't know Wang Yuan's attitude in inviting him. Logically speaking, the Wang family of Sanhuai was no longer willing to join in the fight in the court, so why would he invite him specifically?
Obviously, the key to this was his accompanying uncle. He and Wang Zeng had a good relationship. Although they were not from the same family, they were more or less from the same family.
But it was reasonable for my uncle to invite me to reminisce about the past, and I couldn't shirk it! Thinking of this, Han Yi smiled helplessly, turned around and got on his own oxcart. There was no way to avoid the exchange of favors, and he had to go when he should.
ah!
The oxcart swayed as it arrived at Kangpingfang. Seeing the Wang family's door open from a distance, Han Yi knew that it was welcoming him. Even the threshold had been removed, which must have been convenient for the oxcart to enter.
The servant shouted from afar: "My uncle is here, my uncle is here."
So much so that Han Yi was too embarrassed to turn around and leave, so he could only put on the most friendly smile and get off the oxcart. The servants of the Wang family were extremely considerate to him, not only to give him face, but also to give face to the Wang family.
Wang Yuan was already waiting in front of Zhaobi. Although he was not directly related to the Wang family, his status in the Wang family was extraordinary. Han Yi hurriedly came forward with a gift and said: "Mr. Yuanbo, students are polite!"
"Zong Wei, there is no need to be polite. Asking you to come over in spite of your busy schedule will delay your business. However, inviting you here this time is to reminisce about old times, and secondly, it may be helpful to you, so I asked you to come.
"
Han Yi was slightly surprised and said: "Oh?! Sir, do you have any news about Wu Zhi's case?"
Wang Yuan smiled and said nothing. Seeing that Han Yi was a little anxious, he smiled and said: "Don't be anxious, you will know later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yong came around from behind the screen wall with a smile. When he saw Han Yi's servants getting things out of the car, he frowned slightly and said, "Uncle Lang is here? Why don't you bring anything with you when you are here? Are they all from your own family?"
Stay away from the outside world for a while?!"
Seeing Wang Yong coming in person, Han Yi quickly crossed his hands and bowed: "I've seen my uncle, it's not a valuable item. A few days ago, Zixuan asked someone to buy some cinnamon twigs from Xiangnanju, and combined them with mugwort to make some
The sachets and pillows are given to my uncle and sister-in-law for their home use. Although they are not expensive things, they are still thoughtful."
Wang Yong sighed: "Since your father passed away, you have had less contact with the Wang family of Sanhuai. Zixuan still remembers my neck disease, so you are thoughtful! When we meet today, we two brothers will have a good time catching up with each other.
That’s it, come on, come with me to the back house for tea.”
Only those who are well-connected will be invited to the back house. Han Yi is the son-in-law of the Wang family and cannot be considered an outsider. Wang Yong took his arm and led him into the inner house. Wang Yuan was also sighing at the side that he had not been such a close relative for a long time.
However, when Han Yi arrived in the flower hall of the back house, he suddenly saw a smiling young man standing at the door. He looked extremely handsome with red lips and white teeth, but his starry eyes and sharp eyebrows only added a bit of heroism. Han Yi couldn't help but feel
I secretly sighed in my heart at what a handsome young man!
He just sighed and sighed, but he stepped forward and crossed his hands and said: "I never thought that Yunzhong Junhou was here, Han Yi is so polite!"
Although Han Yi is more than ten years older than Ye An, he is still half a step ahead of Ye An, a fifth-rank official from Sinong Temple.
Ye An did not dare to be disrespectful, and quickly crossed his hands and said in return: "Han Si Feng is so polite, but Ye An doesn't dare to accept such a big gift from you. If you say that I am also a student of Mr. Yuanbo, I am a junior student!"
Although Han Yi was the imperial censor, there was also a senior official named Si Feng Yuan Wai Lang in front of him, so Ye An called him Han Si Feng as an honorific title, just like calling Du Fu and Du Gongbu.
, because he once served as a member of the School Inspectorate and the Ministry of Industry, so calling him an official was mostly a sign of respect in the officialdom.
When Han Yi saw Ye An's show of kindness, he smiled politely and said: "Ye Hou is a young and talented man who has made great contributions to the country. Han Yi cannot compare to you."
"You two don't have to be polite. Just go to the flower hall and drink tea. You both have a good taste today. There is still some Dragon Ball Tea given by the palace, so you drank it all!"
Wang Yuan took the two of them and headed towards the flower hall. Such politeness really delayed the business.
