As the saying goes, when anger arises in the heart, evil comes from the courage!
Yang Fan, furious, stood up, dressed in plain clothes, walked out of the house, got on his horse, and headed straight for the imperial city!
When he arrived at Chengtian Gate, he showed the guard the document from Dali Temple, saying that he was going to Dali Temple to explain the situation, and the guards naturally would not stop him.
Angrily, he rushed into the city gate, turned right, and went straight to Dali Temple, which was a step away from Menxia Province.
As for why we didn't go to Wei Zheng first, of course it was because the ultimatum was issued by Dali Temple, so we naturally went to Dali Temple first to investigate the situation.
****
As soon as Xiao Yu came to the Dali Temple official office, his eyelids jumped.
Serving as the Minister of Dali Temple this time can be regarded as the fourth of the five ups and downs in Xiao Yu's life.
Being demoted again and again and appointed again and again made Xiao Yu's physical condition worse and worse, and his energy became even weaker.
In the past, I worked conscientiously and conscientiously in my duties, but now I always feel inadequate and a little depressed.
So old!
Sitting in the duty room, Xiao Yu sighed.
Of course, he was not lamenting because of lack of energy, but because he was a little worried about the ultimatum issued by Yang Fan.
In name, his biological sister is still Yang Fan's godmother, but Yang Fan will not be particularly merciful just because she is related to her.
After sitting in the check-in room for a while, Xiao Yu felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
The subordinate officials of Dali Temple were in a hurry, and their eyes often crossed each other as they came and went. They were mysterious, as if they were hiding something from him, the minister of Dali Temple.
However, this is also expected.
When His Majesty Li Er asked him to issue an ultimatum to Yang Fan to account for the huge sum of money, Wei Zheng knew that things were not going well.
After all, Yang Fan dared to fight even the prince, so why was he afraid of him, the minister of Dali Temple?
Once Yang Fan had such a stubborn temper that even the emperor would not give him face, these subordinates would naturally be frightened, fearing that Yang Fan would come to cause trouble.
The most important thing is that the Jiangnan nobles submitted a petition to the imperial envoy to deal with Yang Fan, and now let Dali Temple handle this hot potato. Of course everyone knows that this is not a good job.
You must know that there are many people who were slapped in the face or beaten by Yang Fan. The Cui family of Qinghe is the most typical. Almost everyone in the family is guilty, so the Guanzhong family never dares to mess with Yang Fan easily.
Even if they chose to cease their activities due to various reasons, or they just kept a low profile and avoided the danger for the time being, they were all waiting for Yang Fan to reveal his flaws...
Now, Yang Fan took the initiative to hand over the handle to these people, causing people from the Guanzhong Family and Jiangnan World to attack.
Xiao Yu knew what was about to happen without even thinking about it.
While thinking, Xiao Yu knocked on the table, attracting the attention of all the officials on duty, and said calmly with drooped eyelids:
"I can't control what's going on over there at the Yushitai, but inside the Dali Temple, I'm working diligently."
"As for whether Wannian County Government sold his official position to make money, that's not what we should care about. Just take care of your own one-third of an acre and don't mess around."
Such straightforward words stunned everyone.
If you don't want to take care of it, why would you need to issue an ultimatum for Yang Fan to come and explain the situation? Isn't this self-contradictory?
For a moment, everyone was in disbelief!
Seeing that everyone still couldn't see the situation clearly, Xiao Yu was slightly annoyed, opened his eyes and shouted: "Can't you understand people? What should you do? Don't just stand here and be an eyesore. If Yang Fan comes to explain the situation, just record it truthfully.
As for how to deal with it, it’s not your turn to dictate.”
All the subordinates looked at me and I looked at you, a little at a loss. Is this still the selfless Xiao Yu, or the once majestic prime minister?
The boss of the family sent an ultimatum to Yang Fan to come and explain the situation. Everyone thought that the boss was unhappy with Yang Fan.
Since the boss has this idea, he also wants to join forces with Yushitai to deal with Yang Fan.
But now Xiao Yu's attitude is too confusing.
As a subordinate, although I don’t know what the boss is thinking, there is absolutely nothing wrong with following his lead. This is the rule of the officialdom.
Seeing that everyone was confused, Xiao Yu didn't explain any more, picked up the book and took a sip of the tea he had made, and rubbed his head speechlessly.
This matter is really tricky.
Ever since word came out that Yang Fan had "sold his official position" for a sky-high price, people in the aristocratic family were furious and there was a strong tendency to attack him.
And that guy Yang Fan didn't know what kind of medicine he took, but he dared to blatantly use his official quota to make money.
If you can do this kind of thing, wouldn't it mean that you are giving the handle to the aristocratic family?
If all the money had not been donated to His Majesty Li Er afterwards, the consequences would have been disastrous.
I just don’t know if Yang Fan had already made up his mind to donate the money to His Majesty Li Er, or if he was frightened by the amount after selling it at a sky-high price and felt tingling, so he had to reluctantly donate it.
But no matter what, it was a good move to spend money to eliminate disaster and let His Majesty Li Er come to protect him from the wind and rain.
Without His Majesty Li Er's protection, Dali Temple would not only issue an ultimatum, but also send people to arrest him.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu sighed slightly.
Every move Yang Fan makes is unexpected and really confusing.
I don’t know whether it’s because I’m too old or because I’m timid that I have to follow His Majesty’s instructions. I’m afraid it’s both!
If he had been twenty years younger, I'm afraid he would have rushed up and scolded Li Ergou to show his innocence!
When Xiao Yu was sighing, there was a sudden noise outside the duty room.
"Bold, who are you? What kind of place is Dali Temple? How can you be allowed to enter it at will?"
"If you don't change your name in a certain business or your surname when you sit down, I am Yang Fan. Didn't you ask me to explain the situation? Why don't you know us anyway? Haha, it's okay if you don't go in. You call Xiao Yu out for me. I have something to say...
"
The scene suddenly became quiet. It was probably because the officials of Dali Temple had never seen such a arrogant person. They dared to go to Dali Temple and name them. They were simply too brave.
Who among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty dared to be so rampant?
Anyone who entered Dali Temple in the past looked trembling and groveling. This style of painting is wrong!
Suddenly, there was a lot of noise.
After all, Xiao Yu had served as prime minister and was senior enough. Although he was in trouble and was only a minister of Dali Temple, everyone present believed that his boss could go further.
Besides, those who can rise and fall and still hold high positions are simply idols and role models for officials.
Now that Yang Fan dares to come to Dali Temple and name his name to cause trouble for Xiao Yu, he is really impatient!
"Yang Fan is so bold! You can call the Minister of Dali Temple by his name at will?"
"I just called, can you give me a call?"
"You...you are simply lawless. Come on, get this lawless guy out!"
"Haha, if you don't ask Xiao Yu to come out, believe it or not, I will burn your Dali Temple with fire?"
"Yang Fan, don't be so arrogant and wanton when you come to Marble. Do you still have any respect for the laws of the court?"
The officials of Dali Temple were obviously frightened and could only start to reason.
"Law, reverence? Haha, when you framed Yang, did you talk about the law and evidence?"
"I want you to come and explain the situation. It is a proposal from the Imperial Consulate, submitted by the Ministry of Finance, and seconded by the Ministry of Household Affairs. It has nothing to do with our Dali Temple? Every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner. If you have the ability, go to the Imperial Council and the Provincial Government...
…”
Seeing how angry Yang Fan was, these officials began to shirk responsibility.
Yang Fan ignored it and shouted: "I don't care about this. You just tell me whether to call Xiao Yu out. If you don't call, I will beat you all down and see if anyone dares to come out and stop me!"
These words are really arrogant!
Even though the officials of Dali Temple were really frightened by Yang Fan, they couldn't help it. There were shouts and curses, and the scene became a mess.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu couldn't sit still anymore!
Everyone in Chang'an City knows what a virtuous person Yang Fan is. He can do it with his fists in a hot-blooded manner. That is absolutely possible!
If the officials under him were beaten up, then Xiao Yu would not want to hang out in the officialdom anymore.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu quickly shouted: "Don't stop him, let that kid come in!"
In an instant, the scene became quiet, and then.
There was just a "bang" sound, and the check-in door was kicked open, and Yang Fan strode in from the outside with a slumped black face.
Xiao Yu was completely indifferent. He picked up the teacup and took a slow sip before saying, "Did you take the wrong medicine? Are you still so rude in front of your elders? Do you still know some rules? Do you still understand filial piety?"
Yang Fan rolled his eyes speechlessly and said, "I really don't understand the rules! How about you, Master Si Qing, teach me?"
"I remember that Dali Temple is specifically responsible for the trial of prison cases. If there are discrepancies in the crime, it will be refuted according to the law. If there is an injustice, the circumstances will be explained in detail. The guilty must be punished and the innocent will not be imprisoned."
"I donated all the money and explained the situation to His Majesty, but you actually still issued an ultimatum. Do you really think of me as a criminal?"
Looking at the furious Yang Fan, Xiao Yu was suddenly surprised, but felt relieved. This kid really did it for this!
I originally wanted to explain the reason, but this arrogant attitude is really abominable!
What's more, her sister Empress Xiao also confessed that she needed to hone this boy's temperament. Xiao Yu's stubborn temper also broke out. He blew his beard and glared and cursed: "How should Dali Temple do things? It's not your turn to be a yellow man."
Are you here to comment? If you have an opinion about the document, you have to explain the situation honestly. If you really have an opinion against me, hehe, if you have the ability, go and file a complaint!"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu could be so stubborn. Yang Fan immediately replied: "Don't bully others just because you are old or qualified? A turtle can live for a thousand years, so no matter what, he can only be called a bastard!"
Xiao Yu slapped the table and said angrily: "You are simply going too far. Even if you curse, you can't be so unpleasant. Believe it or not, I asked your godmother to come over and pull your ears. I want you to know what it means to respect the elderly and care for the young."
"Ahem, I...I am indeed a little reckless, please don't take offense!" Yang Fan was dumbfounded.
Unexpectedly, this old boy actually moved out of Empress Xiao. In this era when filial piety is paramount, Yang Fan
The tone is inevitably a bit weaker.
No way, who put Empress Xiao’s status in it?
What's more, the man in front of him is his godmother's biological brother, what can Yang Fan do?
The officials watching outside suddenly became proud, aren't you Yang Fan very good?
Just now you were blowing your beard and yelling at us, but in front of Xiao Yu, aren't you feeling weak?
The officials from these provinces were immediately honored that the superior officer's ability was superior to that of Yang Fan.
That is to say, my eldest son is the biological brother of Yang Fan's godmother, and he can make Yang Fan fearful.
If any other official had dared to speak to Yang Fan like this, Yang Fan might have hit him with his fists long ago!
I’ll beat you to a pulp first and then I’ll talk!
Of course, Xiao Yu also knew that going too far is still not enough, so he asked knowingly: "What's the matter with you here?"
Yang Fan gritted his teeth and said, "You clearly know that I didn't sell my job and you also know where the money went. Why do you still need me to come and explain the situation? Are you taking off your pants and farting? It's unnecessary?"
The officials outside the door looked at each other in confusion. Damn, you are so brave, you can really make people angry when you argue with them.
Xiao Yu, however, was like an old man. He lowered his eyelids and said, "I don't want to go into details about whether you have sold your official position, but if you use your official position to make money, Dali Temple will have to take care of it. As for who you give the money to, that is your business."
Son?"
Xiao Yu was also angry in his heart. After all, he was once a descendant of the royal family. Even the emperor treated us with courtesy. How dare you, a junior, to yell at us? How unbecoming is it?
Yang Fan was about to go crazy and roared: "You are trying to change your concept. If you had the guts, would you have called the emperor over to confront him?"
The officials outside the door were sweating profusely. Yang Fan was really a stickman. He actually dared to call the emperor over for interrogation. He was really smart!
Xiao Yu was not angry either, he just drank tea leisurely, raised his eyebrows, and looked at the furious Yang Nong teasingly, the contempt in his eyes seemed to say - if you have the ability, can you ask the emperor to come and testify?
Yang Fan was so angry that his nose was crooked, so he rolled around in Xiao Yu's room and yelled and cursed, saying things that were hard to hear.
Who is Xiao Yu?
After three dynasties, how can one become angry just because of a few angry words?
Seeing that Xiao Yu didn't accept the move at all, Yang Fan didn't know what to do.
Don't think he dares to hit the King of Wei or the Duke of Wei. Why don't you let him try to touch Xiao Yu?
Once Xiao Yu is touched, he will definitely be infamy and infamy for thousands of years.
In ancient times, filial piety was the most important thing!
Who told Xiao Yu to have a good sister? Where is her identity?
In the end, Yang Fan had no choice but to grit his teeth and explain the situation. As for his wrong behavior of "selling his official position", he was fined a large sum of money. The huge fine made him almost vomit blood!
A full five hundred thousand guan, this Xiao Yu is too cruel!
But now that Dali Temple has made a ruling, even His Majesty Li Er cannot easily refute it. Yang Fan has no choice but to hold his nose and admit it. What else can he do?
It's really annoying. If it weren't for Xiao Yu who couldn't be beaten, Yang Fan would definitely give him some color!
However, it's obviously not Yang Fan's style to resist after suffering a loss. This guy just acts like a rogue: "I can fine you, but I don't have any money now, so I owe you! I'll pay it when I have the money!"
Xiao Yu was so angry at Yang Fan's words!
What's the difference between this kid and the gangsters on the street?
You pay whenever you have money. What is the difference between not paying and not paying?
Thinking of the emperor's explanation, Xiao Yu could only say with a dark face: "The verdict has been decided and it will be handed over to me within three days. If it is not handed over, I will have someone go to Junyangfang to seize the goods of equivalent value."
Yang Fan was furious: "It's just three melons and two jujubes that lead to an army and a large number of people?"
Xiao Yu was indifferent: "If you don't have any other opinions, why don't you just press your fingerprints quickly?"
There was no other way, Yang Fan had no choice but to hold his breath and press his fingerprints.
Looking at the five hundred thousand yuan fine, Xiao Yu's old face smiled like a chrysanthemum, and his wretched look was as hateful as possible!
Of course, the more important thing is that he completed the task assigned by the emperor.
