Chapter 4769 The way to be an official


Chapter 4769: The Way of Being an Official

"Fang Jun has deceived Your Majesty and caused harm to the country and the people. All benevolent people in the world will punish him!"

"Your Majesty was forced to persecute the meritorious ministers of the country by traitors, and arbitrarily confiscated the property of the meritorious people. It is chilling! If Fang Jun is not killed, it will not be enough to bring peace to the world!"

"This person commanded his troops to carry out inhumane massacres against friendly countries in Mobei and overseas. He destroyed humanity and lost all conscience. He ruined our reputation as a country of etiquette in the Tang Dynasty. He is responsible for thousands of deaths!"

After drinking tea with Xuanzang from Daci'en Temple, Fang Jun returned to the gate of Jinchangfang. Far away, he heard someone shouting and cursing at the top of his lungs in a certain room, while the nearby government officials and soldiers When they saw Fang Jun return, they all showed embarrassed smiles. If Fang Jun heard such unpleasant words, he wouldn't be angry with everyone if he didn't come to Taiwan...

Fang Jun ignored everyone's expressions and curiously asked Cen Changqian: "Who is so bold and not afraid that I will peel off his skin?"

"He is Wei Shuxia, a descendant of Wei from Jingzhao and the cousin of Concubine Wei."

Fang Jun had heard of this name a little bit: "That guy who calls himself 'Wei Jade'?"

"Exactly."

"This guy must have taken the wrong medicine. I didn't find him or provoke him. Why did he scold him so fiercely?"

"I don't know if I am in a humble position, but the county magistrate is here to interrogate him."

"Open the door, let me go in and take a look."

"Here."

Cen Changqian opened the door, Fang Jun stepped inside, and the yelling stopped abruptly.

"Commander!" Lai Ji quickly stood up and saluted.

Fang Jun nodded slightly, walked up to Wei Shuxia, whose hands and feet were bound, and said with a smile: "Why don't you scold me anymore? No one has dared to scold me like this for many years, it's quite new. But scolding people behind their back is not what a gentleman does. Because, it is admirable to have the ability to scold someone in person.”

Wei Shuxia licked his lips twice. Although he felt very embarrassed, he still did not dare to curse. Young people are high-spirited and arrogant, but it does not mean that they are fools. Facing the "notorious" Fang Er, he really I don't have the guts to curse in person.

After all, how many dandy boys have been amputated by Fang Jun in recent years, including Qiu Shenji and Changsun Dan, who died suddenly...

Fang Jun waited for a while and saw that he didn't open his mouth, so he pretended to be disappointed: "If you continue to curse, I will respect you as a man. It can be seen that it is a bit mean to close your mouth when you see me and only dare to curse behind your back."
< br>

Turning back to Lai Ji, he said: "The interrogation record contains comments that slander the Holy Gong and the ministers. In addition, although he is from a Han family, he is full of sympathy for the Hu people and is suspected of having connections with foreign countries. Baiqisi is underestimated." 'Detailed investigation to avoid future troubles. ”

"Here."

Wei Shuxia's face turned pale, his lips were trembling, his eyes were about to burst, and he hissed: "Why?! Why are you slandering me like this? I'm just talking about things. How have I ever sympathized with the Hu people, or have any connections with foreign countries?!"

Once these two sentences are written in the file, not only will his career be cut off, but he will also be infamy for the ages.

Fang Junqi said: "When you slandered me, you spoke righteously and generously, as if you were a gentleman. Everyone except you is a treacherous official and traitor. Why can't you stand it when it's my turn to slander you? You are known as the "Wei Family Beauty" and have read thousands of volumes. Don't you know the principle of not doing to others what you don't want others to do to you? ”

Wei Shuxia's face turned pale and red, and he was speechless.

Fang Jun didn't bother to pay attention to him. This kind of scholar who talks about benevolence and righteousness but keeps silent about morality and only knows how to study is useless. It is useless to the country and harmful to the people. In the future, at most he will be a so-called "great Confucian" based on his family background. One more is not much. One less is more, and there is no need to care whether they live or die.

"The trial will be clear, the files will be detailed, and then handed over to the Tribunal for trial. If anyone asks you to intercede, blame it on me. Try not to get into trouble like this. In addition, no matter what method you use to quickly end the 'obscenity' case, these people They keep claiming that Buddhist believers are He held on to Da Ci'en Temple vigorously, fearing that there was some hidden secret or ulterior motives. Regardless of their identities, they should either settle the matter amicably or hand it over to the 'Hundred Qisi' to investigate these people. True intention.”

"Ah...this kind of thing is not under the jurisdiction of the 'Hundred Cavalry Division', I'm afraid it won't be accepted."

"Go back and ask Cen Changqian to take my name card to Baiqisi, look for Li Junxian and Li Chongzhen, and tell them that these people have evil intentions, trying to stir up disputes between Buddhism and Taoism, and affect the prosperity and stability of the empire. We must dig deeper to see if there is any conspiracy to overthrow the empire.”

"..."

Laiji was speechless. A mere case that might not even qualify as "obscene" would require the use of "Hundred Qisi"? What is the crime of "affecting the prosperity and stability of the empire"? Unheard of. However, once something like "subverting the empire" happens, the "victims" who are still complaining and constantly attacking Buddhism may not have much time left, and may even bring trouble to their relatives.

However, he also admitted that such an unruly approach is the most effective way to deal with this kind of matter. Whoever dares to make trouble or mess around will be knocked down with a stick.

Just a little too arrogant...

Fang Jun turned around and came out of the house, followed closely by Cen Changqian, reporting: "The news just came that tonight many clan members and distinguished families who participated in the attack on the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion will gather at the Xiangyi County Prince's Mansion, shall we Send someone to keep an eye on it to avoid confusion?”

It was obvious that Li Shenfu was instigating and instigating the group of people to attack the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen behind the scenes. Now that something has happened, many people may even lose their official titles and be severely punished, and Li Shenfu suddenly became the "person" in this case. The "Special Supervisor" is responsible for trying everyone's guilt, which makes the clan and nobles feel uneasy.

Now that everyone is gathering at the Xiangyi County Prince's Mansion, Li Shenfu must give everyone an explanation. If they can't reach an agreement, a conflict is very likely to occur...

Fang Jun didn't take it seriously: "Why are you getting involved in their messy things? Fight them if they want, make trouble if they want, and let them go. We will only go out when they cause trouble, otherwise we will ignore them."

Cen Changqian thought for a while and nodded.

This is what makes Fang Jun different. Others are ordered by the emperor to maintain public order in the capital for fear that someone will cause trouble and be punished. But Fang Jun is not there and no one will punish him, so he only focuses on the results. The clan, nobles and others want to Just do whatever you want, and only hit them hard when they cause trouble to make sure things don't get too big.

Otherwise, participating halfway means getting into trouble, which not only requires a huge amount of energy to prevent, but may also cause you to be splashed with dirty water...

However, how many civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty dared to do this?

"Just leave the matters here to Lai Ji. I think this person is smart and capable and knows the way of being an official. He will be able to solve it satisfactorily. Let's go. I have made an appointment with Cui Shangshu to have a drink. You can go with me to keep me company." br>


"Here."

Cen Changqian knew that Fang Jun was promoting him. Cui Dunli was now the most powerful among the six ministers, and His Majesty had great trust in him. The minister of the Ministry of War would certainly not be the end of his official career. If he was promoted from the six ministers, he would be the minister. Left and right servants, or the Great Protector of the Protectorate...

Being able to make good friends with Cui Dunli through Fang Junzhi's guidance will have an immeasurable effect on Cen Changqian's future.

Coupled with the political legacy left by his uncle Cen Wenwen...

The future is limitless.

……

Lai Ji finally finished the interrogation of Wei Shuxia, sorted out the files and would continue the trial of the "obscenity case" later. While burying his head in the papers under the candlelight, he casually asked the scribes around him: "Where are the Duke of Yue and Cen Changshi?"


"The State of Yue made an appointment with Cui Shangshu to drink at Pingkangfang, and ordered Cen Changshi to accompany him."

"..."

Laiji, who was originally in high spirits, suddenly felt depressed. He was handling affairs here like a cow and a horse, but the two of them went to drink?

Especially the fact that Fang Jun took Cen Changqian to accompany him made him feel sad. How could he, who was born in a family of officials, not know that this meant focused training? Cen Changqian is Cen Wenwen’s nephew, and she has been cultivated by Fang Jun. She is so far behind that she doesn’t know when she will be able to catch up...

However, he is also a determined person. Although he envies Cen Changqian's political resources, he also knows that only by doing his job well can he have a further foundation. Otherwise, a sudden promotion may not be a good thing. Look at castles in the air and castles on the beach. Like a majestic shore, a strong wind or a tide can destroy everything.

Don't be impatient, you must follow the steps and work steadily, and one day you will stand at the pinnacle of power to realize your political ideas.

Taking a deep breath, eliminating the distracting thoughts in his mind, Laiji continued to immerse himself in the paperwork and work diligently.

*****

At night, the Xiangyi County Prince's Mansion is brightly lit, the streets in front of the gate are jammed with traffic, and the main hall is crowded and noisy. The excitement is even worse than that of the two cities in the east and west.

The clans and nobles who attacked Jingzhao Mansion yesterday gathered together and asked Li Shenfu to come up with a charter.

Li Daoli was wearing a black shirt and sitting on a chair looking sad, asking for an explanation.

Li Shenfu said angrily: "What do you want from me? I didn't agree to attack Jingzhao Mansion at that time, and you didn't listen to me. Now if something goes wrong, they all come to me? There is no such reason in the world!"


"You can use these words to prevaricate Your Majesty, but you don't have to be pretentious in front of us, right? You really didn't say what you asked these silly boys to do at that time, but who can't understand the meaning behind the words?"< br>


"In any case, we have always relied on your leadership, so you can't ignore this matter."

"You asked us to go out to attack Jingzhao Mansion, but we stood on His Majesty's side behind the scenes. Isn't this a bit unreasonable?"

Li Demao saw that his father's face was red with anger and he was breathing heavily. He was afraid that his old father would be broken out of anger, so he quickly said: "Now His Majesty is dissatisfied with my father, so he has given a 'special supervisor' position to participate in the trial of the case. This It’s clear that it divides us, so don’t fall into the trap!”

"Who knows whether you, father and son, did this deliberately? This 'special supervision' may be a reward for betraying us fools." Li Shenfu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He pulled his son and whispered: "Go to the Jinwu Guards and ask them to send troops to the house quickly. I'm afraid these people will not give up tonight."
