Chapter 1049 Your family has too many loyalties
Wang Jingzhi flatly refused: "My Wang family in Taiyuan has been loyal and upright for generations. There has never been any adultery or evil in the family. Why have I been treated like this by you?"
Search the house?
This is a shame!
There are many female relatives in the house, and these soldiers and government officials rush in in a swarm. If one person is not careful, anything can happen. If the rumors spread, will the Wang family still want the face? Furthermore, how could the dignified Wang family in Taiyuan be allowed to be searched by vulgar officials?
This is a matter of principle!
Fang Junpi stared at Wang Jingzhi with a dead smile, and his words seemed to cut off the brother-in-law's face: "Loyalty from generation to generation? Haha, you deserve it! I would like to ask, who are you, the Wang family, loyal to?" First you were loyal to the Han, then to the Wei, then to the Jin, then to the Sui, and now to the Tang, so who will you be loyal to tomorrow?"
These words were a slap in the face!
Wang Jing faced red ears, but found that Fang Jun was actually right...
Dynasties changed, and the Wang family in Taiyuan had been prosperous for too long and had already gone through many dynasties. Of course you must be loyal to the Han Dynasty during the Han Dynasty, and you must be loyal to the Wei and Jin Dynasties during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, otherwise? Do you want the Wang family in Taiyuan to rebel for generations?
Wang Jingzhi had no choice but to say: "The Wang family has always been a kind person in the countryside. They only know that Haosou has poor scriptures and poems that are passed down from family to family. When the world is prosperous, they work behind closed doors and study. When the world is in trouble, they manage the world and help the country. They relieve the people from hanging upside down and save the people from fire and water. The world is full of officials. Who doesn't praise the world for your reputation? Now that you have humiliated my Wang family, you are not afraid of the slander of the world and the disapproval of the government and the public? "
Fang Jun sneered, are you trying to put pressure on me?
What kind of slander from the world, what kind of side glances from the government and the public, have you ever been afraid of this?
"After all, you Wang family will be loyal to whoever is in power. You will be loyal to whoever can protect your Wang family's wealth. You only know that you have a family but don't know a country. You keep talking about passing down poems and books, but in fact you are selfish and have no regard for the common people of the world. How are you different from the slaves of his three surnames? How dare you talk about loyalty with me?"
Everyone in the Wang family stared at him angrily, their faces flushed.
The dignified Wang family of Taiyuan, whose poetry and etiquette have been handed down from generation to generation, is one of the best noble families in the world. How has anyone ever insulted the slaves of the three surnames?
Wang Jingzhi was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He pointed his halberd at Fang Jun and shouted angrily: "That's full of nonsense! The Wang family respects you as Jing Zhaoyin, and you are the parents of Chang'an. Therefore, you open the central gate with great respect. Why do you want to slander Wang like this?" His reputation?”
Fang Jun said: "Don't say such useless words. Now someone has witnessed the assassin escaping into your backyard. We, the Jingzhao Mansion, have been ordered by the emperor to arrest the assassin. Therefore, we have to enter the mansion to search. Please make it convenient for the king's consort."< br>
Wang Jingzhi said proudly: "No! How can the reputation of the Wang family be ruined in your hands? This is definitely not feasible."
Fang Jun sneered: "In this case, can I conclude that Wang Consort's prevarication is related to this assassination, and that the assassin is clearly hiding in your mansion and being protected by your mansion?"
Wang Jingzhi was not afraid at all and said calmly: "You can say whatever you want, but if you want to enter the house and search, you will definitely not be able to do it."
This is not because Wang Jingzhi is unsophisticated.
Under normal circumstances, Wang Jingzhi would not be so ungrateful to Jing Zhaoyin. After all, he was the highest official in Chang'an. If something went wrong, he would definitely be in trouble in the future. But now the situation between Fang Jun and the Guanlong Group is tense. Who knows if Fang Jun will take the opportunity to frame him and deliberately arrange some clues in the palace?
How could Fang Jun refuse?
Regardless of whether he could find clues about the assassin in the palace today, he had to go in and search. Now everyone in the imperial court knows that he is fighting against the Guanlong Group, but he can't even get in. Wouldn't he be laughed at?
Fang Jun stared into Wang Jingzhi's eyes and said without giving in: "Detecting bandits is not only the responsibility of Jingzhao Mansion, but also the obligation of all Tang Dynasty subjects. Now that the assassin has escaped into the backyard of your mansion, I personally lead the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen in front came to search for him, but Wang’s consort tried to resist, so I had to doubt the Wang family’s motive for shielding the assassin.”
Wang Jingzhi said angrily: "How could a certain person ever shield an assassin? The governor will slander anyone. The Wang family has always been honest and upright, and there is no reason to shield the assassin."
Fang Jun said aggressively: "I don't care whether you have a reason or not. I only believe in evidence. If the assassin escapes into your backyard, you have to let me search. Otherwise, you will be covering up the assassin. Do you believe that I gave the order to the government officials?" The soldiers just broke in, captured everyone in your Wang family, and tortured them severely?”
This time, not only Wang Jingzhi, but all the Wang family members couldn't bear it anymore!
Everyone in the house was captured and tortured?
This is the Wang family, the Taiyuan Wang family that has been around for generations since the Han Dynasty!
Are you too crazy?
Wang Jing gritted his teeth and glared at Fang Jun: "How dare you?!"
Fang Jun frowned: "You can try it and see if I dare!"
Wang Jingzhi: "..."
He was dumbfounded.
Do you dare to try Fang Jun?
He didn't dare try.
Because there is nothing that Fang Jun dare not do! This guy is a stick! Which Jiangnan gentry is not powerful and has deep roots? Why don't you still get tossed around by Fang Jun and everyone obeys you!
Especially with Jiangdong Gu's lessons learned...
That would wipe out the whole Gu family, and also charge them with treason. The children of the family would never be allowed to take part in the imperial examinations, never be recommended as officials, and would be completely reduced to the lower class, forever and ever!
Now it's just a matter of breaking into the palace to take someone. How could he, Fang Jun, not dare?
Wang Jing looked straight at Fang Jun's unruly eyes and believed that if he dared to say "Try it" again, Fang Jun would really order everyone in the Wang family to be arrested and tortured.
Under three trees, what can you ask for?
Once someone in the Wang family cannot bear the punishment and confesses indiscriminately, the reputation of the Wang family for generations will be seriously destroyed...
The county magistrate who ruined the family, the governor who destroyed the family!
Wang Jingzhi has heard this sentence more than once, and his Wang family has a long history and has even done this more than once, but he never thought that one day the Taiyuan Wang family would encounter such an embarrassing situation, being forcefully crushed and wantonly bullied?
"Da Lang, the master of the family has something to convey."
A servant ran out of the house in a panic, came to Wang Jingzhi and whispered a few words.
Wang Jingzhi's expression changed, he stared at Fang Jun for a long time, and then he said in a solemn voice: "My father has a destiny. Since Fang Fuyin insists on believing that the Wang family is connected with the assassins, he might as well go in and search carefully to give the Wang family justice." Reputation.”
Being suppressed by Fang Jun and having to agree to let him enter the house to search, and actively asking Fang Jun to enter the house to search, the result is the same, but the nature is completely different.
After all, Wang Gui was Wang Gui. When he saw that Fang Jun had made up his mind, he immediately relented. If this stalemate continues, it will be detrimental to the Wang family. In the final analysis, Fang Jun occupies a position of truth, so it is not a wise move to confront them head-on.
Fang Jun chuckled, how could he be caught in the trap in Wang Jingzhi's words?
"I didn't say that your Wang family is colluding with the assassins. This is what your prince consort said himself, and it has nothing to do with me. Since Yongning County Duke understands justice, how can I not grant him permission? Come on, let me go in and look carefully. Search, but the Wang family is the in-laws of His Royal Highness Prince Jin. You must abide by the etiquette and be careful in your actions. If you disturb the family members in the mansion, I will not spare you!"
"No!"
A group of government officials and patrolmen rushed into the gate like wolves and tigers, and headed straight for the backyard under the leadership of the Wang family steward.
Wang Jingzhi was still standing on the front steps, glaring at Fang Jun fiercely.
The thief is indeed treacherous!
Not only was he alert to the trap in his words, he even slapped himself in the face with his backhand. Fang Jun kept saying that the Wang family should be treated with courtesy because they were royal relatives, but he did not mention the Wang family's background and nobility at all. This was clearly a mockery of the Wang family as just snobs clinging to imperial power, rather than a noble family with a high reputation for poetry and etiquette. A distinguished family!
How could this make Wang Jingzhi, who had always regarded his family's prominence as an honor, not be angry?
My lungs are almost deceived, this guy is really hateful!
Wang Jing gritted his teeth and glared at Fang Jun: "If the assassin's whereabouts are not found after the search, I wonder how Fang Fuyin will give an explanation to the Wang family?"
You have humiliated the Wang family so much and kept claiming that the Wang family colluded with the assassins to protect you. If you can't find anything, do you have to give the Wang family an explanation? Otherwise, wouldn't it make the world laugh at the dignified Wang family of Taiyuan, who was sent to the palace and searched everywhere by despicable military conscripts?
After Fang Jun achieved his goal, he would naturally not be angry with Wang Jing anymore.
He smiled and said: "What did Wang Consort say? When I saw Wang Consort blocking me, I originally thought that the Wang family was a high-ranking family member and wanted to save their face, so I planned to go back home. But the Princess of Yongning County made the request. This official went into the house to conduct a search to set the record straight. I am helping the Wang family, otherwise there will be rumors that the Wang family colluded with assassins to assassinate me. You should be grateful to me, why are you asking me to explain it to you? "Wang Jingzhiwen! Yan, almost angry to death!
