Chapter 298: Defeat and retreat

Fan Zeng was really angry this time, Chen Guo's officialdom was still under his control, of course, he didn't do anything to those officials who surrendered to the King of Han, but whenever he wanted to say such a word for those who were demoted by the King of Han, or to do something, Chen Guomin would have a lot of stains about that official, and it was overwhelming, and the people were dissatisfied for a while.

Especially some old things, inadvertently aroused public anger, even if he wanted to make a move, he had to weigh the past harm.

If only one official is like this, then he can still find some words to prevaricate, but this is the case for everyone.

It's not that Chen Guo's officialdom is like this, but Han Wang is too good at choosing people, and he picks all the moths of Chen Guo's officialdom, and most of these people are still from his department.

And those people brought up by the Han King were either political enemies who disagreed with these people's political views, or they were unpopular officials who were excluded by the mainstream officials of the Chen State.

Fan Zeng slapped the dwarf in front of him into a fan with a palm, "Qian Donglai, as the head of the household department, you are in charge of the promotion of officials, you tell me, so many officials are corrupt and pervert the law, do you know it?"

Qian Donglai was a little trembling, for a while now, he has been following Fan Zeng to sort out Chen Guo's officialdom, intending to eliminate the problems provoked by King Han.

But with the deepening of the grooming, he became more and more frightened, he knew that there must be corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and there must be people with bad intentions, but he didn't expect that there were so many, and they didn't know before, or they didn't check it at all, so they didn't know.

After this thorough combing and investigation, it was discovered that the officialdom of Chen Guo had been full of drawbacks and had deep roots.

Qian Donglai sighed lightly in his heart and said, "I know." ”

Fan Zeng asked, "Why don't you report it?"

Qian Donglai smiled bitterly and said: "Taifu, as the saying goes, no business is not treacherous, no official is not greedy." The official position is the greatest temptation in the world, and in his position, there are a few people who can resist it, not to mention being removed and demoted by the King of Han, if tens of thousands of people in the officialdom of Chen State want to be carefully investigated, and they must be investigated, how many people can retreat with their whole body? Who is not with a commotion. ”

Fan Zeng calmed down a little at this time, in the past few decades, the military and political power, he focused on military power, and neglected the regime, but when he controlled the military and government, the political power was already in his hands, but how many of them sincerely surrendered, or because they were afraid of him, and bowed to him, he really didn't know.

Fan Zeng asked, "Is that including you?"

Qian Donglai nodded, "Taifu, do you think I can be alone in my current position? I'm not greedy, some people make me greedy, let my relatives be greedy, and let my family be greedy." A drop of water drops into a bowl of ink, and finally becomes ink, which is difficult to protect. A drop of ink drops into a bowl of water, and in the end it becomes ink, which is difficult to change its turbidity. ”

Qian Donglai knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Those who are close to ink are not black and black." ”

Fan Zeng sat back on the throne and was silent, how could he not understand what Qian Dong said?

Also understand.

This is officialdom, he is not the bowl of water, but the water and ink.

Fan Zeng waved his hand and sent Qian Donglai out, and he was the only one left in the hall.

This officialdom is so filthy that even he is powerless to return to the sky today, and he has his responsibility, and it is still very big.

To sum it up, it's just four words.

Uplink and down.

He has the name of Fan Papi, so Chen Guo's hundred officials should follow suit.

But is the name of his skinning for him?

Fan Zeng smiled, spread his hands and took a look, the lines in his palms were complicated, but none of them seemed to belong to him.

Rather let me bear the people of the world, and Hugh let the people of the world bear me.

Without you, how hard and difficult would the people of this Chen State be, and how hard would the people of this Chen State be, and how many people would be able to stop the bombardment of the major family sects in the Far North? How many people in this Chen State would be called kings and emperors, and there would be a few cities and pools left in this Chen State.

Fan Zeng saw that he lost this time in the battle for office, and he was completely defeated.

But he lost not at the hands of the King of Han, nor at the hands of the officials of the State of Chen, but at his own hands.

It was he who promoted the group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and it was also his failure to explain that made Chen Guo's officials, large and small, work up and down.

Fan Zeng walked up to the head of Weiyang Palace again, looking at the bustling Chang'an City, and how long could he watch it!

Changle Palace is a defeat.

Today's officialdom is another defeat.

Defeat after defeat, he can still afford a few defeats.

Fan Zeng stretched, don't care how long the hell can you watch it!

Fan Zeng stopped at the head of the city of Weiyang Palace for an afternoon, and in the evening, Qian Donglai came to report in a hurry, "Taifu, Fan Gongzi's mansion has been surrounded by the King of Han." ”

When Fan Zeng was in the city, no one usually came to disturb him, and no one dared to disturb him, but now this matter is too important, and Qian Donglai has to come.

Fan Zeng said coldly: "What's the matter?"

From morning to night today, he and Qian Donglai were in the Weiyang official to sort out Chen Guo's officialdom, and after he found that he couldn't sort it out, he stood in this city for an afternoon, and he really didn't know much about the current affairs in Chang'an.

Qian Donglai smiled bitterly, and immediately told Fan Zeng everything he had heard after leaving Weiyang Palace.

The Zhou family was destroyed, and Zhou Nanshan, the head of the Zhou family, wounded the Han king's close ministers and fled, fleeing into Fan Siyuan's mansion.

After the Zhou family, the Feng family suffered another catastrophe, and the family heritage was swept away by Xue Nianci, who seemed to be uninjured, and now Xue Nianci took people to the Wu family again.

The ending of the Wu family can be imagined, either like the Zhou family or like the Feng family, there is no third possibility.

Fan Zeng asked: Xue Nianci's reason for raiding the house is to rebel!"

Qian Donglai gasped heavily, "It's a rebellion, and...... And ......"

Fan Zeng smiled and said: "And it's like I poured dirty water, and told those family members that I was convicted of their treason, right?"

Qian Dong came to suffer

Astringent nodded.

When Fan Zeng first heard that Qian Dong said that the King of Han had surrounded Fan Siyuan's mansion, he was still a little panicked, but after he understood the big events that happened in Chang'an today, he didn't panic.

Fan Zeng said: "You go with me to meet the King of Han." I didn't expect to see him in such a way these four times. ”

The first time was to welcome the King of Han outside Chang'an City.

The second time was to wash the dust for the King of Han in the Sunset Tower.

The third time was outside Changle Palace.

And this is the fourth.

The first two meetings, and the last two meetings, are destined to be very different.

Qian Donglai followed behind Fan Zeng, following suit.

Fan Zeng suddenly spoke: "Qian Donglai, if this official is going to leave this Chen country one day, are you willing to leave with this official?"

Qian Donglai ran out of ideas for a while.

What did Taifu mean by this? Could it be that Taifu felt that he would fail in his struggle for power in Chen State?

Fan Zeng smiled: "Don't think about it, the official just asks casually, you can answer as you like." ”

Qian Donglai thought about it seriously and asked, "Where did Taifu leave Chen Guoguo?"

"Luoyang. ”

Fan Zeng replied truthfully: "The lower officials are willing." ”

Fan Zeng smiled and said, "Since this is the case, let's accompany this official to see this Chang'an!"

Fan Siyuan's mansion is not far from the Weiyang official, it can be said that the closest minister and official is just across the street!

But Fan Zeng was not in a hurry to see his son, who was besieged by the King of Han, but took Qian Donglai to wander around Chang'an City.

Outside Fan Siyuan's mansion, Dongluo took Chen Changsheng, Qin Shuyu and the people of the Fifth Realm of the Hundred Heavens to besiege him.

Dongluo didn't speak, nor did he shout inward, but just set up a small square table and put four benches, with Qin Shuyu and Chen Changsheng drinking on the side, talking and laughing.

Chen Changsheng sighed: "It's a plan for a chain, and the prince is really a good means!"

Chen Changsheng also learned today that it turned out that money could still be earned like this, so he shamelessly earned it and raided his house to fill the treasury.

Of course, this is not what he mainly sighs about, what he mainly sighs about is the unparalleled strategy of Dongluo.

Let Wang Xifeng do what Fan Zeng asked first, paralyze Fan Zeng, and make Fan Zeng think that everything is still under his control.

But at this time, no one knew that he would be separated from Xue Nianci and the two soldiers.

One went to raid the family and exterminate the clan, gathered funds, and provided guarantee for the hundreds of livelihood projects.

The other began to disturb Chen Guo's officialdom, making Chen Guo's officialdom a strong chaos, thereby disrupting Fan Zeng's rhythm and making him follow his plan completely.

Now, the two are one again.

A front foot deceived Zhou Nanshan to the house of Fan Siyuan, the son of Taifu. The other followed and immediately led troops to surround Fan Siyuan's mansion.

Now the Zhou family's crime of treason is already a certainty, Zhou Nanshan is now a fugitive, and he is also a fugitive who has committed the crime of extermination.

But now that this fugitive has fled to Fan Siyuan's mansion, has Fan Siyuan committed the crime of harboring!

It depends on how close Zhou Nanshan, a person close to Taifu, is.

Qin Shuyu said: "The most difficult thing about this plan now is what do those mountain immortal families and mountain sects who are close to Taifu think?"

Chen Changsheng sneered: "What else can you think, who can't see that the families picked by Xue Nianci are the most loyal followers of Taifu, but when they were raided and exterminated, where was Taifu! But now Zhou Nanshan has fled to Fan Siyuan's house. Fan Zeng will not be saved if he dies again, this can't be said!"

Therefore, it is still the same sentence, if Fan Zeng is not afraid that Dongluo will deal with Fan Siyuan according to law for covering up the crime, then Dongluo will naturally be even more afraid.

It's just a fan Siyuan! How scared can you be.

Of course, what they wanted most was for Taifu to kill Zhou Nanshan in a fit of rage, or tie him up and give it to King Han.

But that doesn't seem likely.

If Fan Zengzhen did this, it would be the beginning of the disintegration of Chen Guoshan and Weiyang Palace.

The people of Chang'an may not know what happened in front of Changle Palace, but they really wonder what happened? Did Wang Tieshan rebel? Did Taifu go to King Han to quell the rebellion?

These things have no answers in the eyes of the people of Chang'an, or there are many answers, and those big people in the mountains and rivers and lakes on the mountains and mountains can see them clearly.

Who was it that day that wanted to rebel?

It can be said that Wang Tieshan was bought by Taifu.

Therefore, Xue Nianci said that the people he sent were all arrested by Taifu, and it was not bad at all that Taifu was charged with treason.

And now, like the Zhou family, for the sake of Taifu's lineage, it can be said that they have done their best, and they have died.

But the result is: The family is ruined, the family is destroyed, the family is destroyed.

And Zhou Nanshan, the head of the Zhou family, whether he fled to Fan Siyuan's house crookedly, or deliberately asked Fan Zeng to help him clean it up.

This is not important, when it is important, Zhou Nanshan has already entered Fan Siyuan's mansion.

And the choice left to Fan Zeng, no matter how he chooses, will not be a good result.

Even Zhou Nanshan, a person who is willing to go to the soup for the Zhou family, Fan Zeng also said that he will sell it, so he has to reevaluate his relationship between the two.

In a different place, if they stayed in Zhou Nanshan's position, would Fan Zeng do even more excessively? He would not hesitate to sell them.

Dongluo said calmly: "With these boring questions, it's better to do something interesting." ”

"For example. ”

"For example, guess if Fan Zeng and the others will directly kill Zhou Nanshan?"

"I guess not, in the eyes of a clear-eyed person, who doesn't know that Zhou Nanshan didn't make any mistakes at all, his Zhou family and Yulin Army were all killed by Fan Zeng, if at this critical moment, Fan Zeng not only did not help Zhou Nanshan, but also fell into the stone and beat the water dog, then Fan Zeng's prestige in Chen Guo was completely ruined. ”

"What are you talking about, come, drink, let's talk about something else, what Fan Zeng will think and do may be just

He knows, and when he comes, we will all know. ”

......

It wasn't until it was almost evening that Fan Zeng took Qian Dong to come late.

Fan Zeng and Dongluo exchanged a few words, but everyone was very smart and chose not to talk about the current topic first, so as not to be embarrassed.

This is the tacit understanding between two smart people.

Fan Zeng said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few months, King Han is fine!"

Dongluo also smiled, "It's always been like this, but when it's Taifu, you're really getting younger and younger, it stands to reason that Taifu, you should be a hundred years old! But now it still looks like a middle-aged uncle." ”

Dongluo invited Fan Zeng to sit down at the last seat of the small square table and personally poured him a pot of wine.

Fan Zeng took a sip of wine, pointed to the Rong family army outside Fan Siyuan's mansion, and the hundreds of acquired fifth realms: "I don't know, what does the prince mean by this!"

Dongluo smiled: "It's not interesting, it's just the implementation of the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty." Taifu, you also know that a few months ago, the former commander of the Yulin Army of Changle Palace took the Yulin Army and nearly 100 people of Chang'an, intending to rebel against this!"

Dongluo saw that Fan Zeng didn't speak, so he didn't open which pot to mention, and poured salt on the wound, "By the way, Taifu, most of the rebellious ministers and thieves who rebelled that time were still captured by Taifu! After several months of investigation by this king, this Zhou family really had to rebel, and this Zhou Nanshan, the head of the Zhou family, also injured the king's close ministers and fled to the front house, and this king led his troops to chase him all the way. ”

Originally, the king wanted to go in directly to arrest people, but after many inquiries, he found out that this mansion turned out to be the son of the Taifu, which made the king a little embarrassed for a while, and he didn't know whether Nanshan should be arrested this week, if he didn't arrest him, this king was ashamed of the law of the Great Zhou Dynasty. But if you accidentally injure the son of Taifu, it will not be good. The relationship between this king and the Taifu can be described as siblings, and how can he do something that makes the Taifu embarrassed?"

Therefore, this king did not arrest this Zhou Nanshan, but waited here for Taifu to decide, whether this person is killed or stayed, and Taifu said a word. ”

"In a word. Fan Zeng showed a look of sudden realization and said, "Then the prince thinks it is better to kill or stay this person?"

Dongluo pushed the question back again, "Whether to kill or stay depends on Taifu's meaning, this king still thinks that this kind of person who violates the law will be punished by the law." ”

Fan Zeng sighed, and drank all the wine on the table in front of him. Then without looking at Chen Changsheng, Qin Shuyu glanced at it, and walked straight to Fan Siyuan's mansion.

Dongluo raised his glass, smiled slightly, and began to wait again. The onlookers were talking.

"The purpose of the prince is said to be to arrest Zhou Nanshan, who has committed the crime of rebellion. It has long been rumored that the relationship between Taifu and Zhou Nanshan is irreversible, but now it seems to be really comparable. ”

"In this case, why haven't people been arrested until now, is it because Taifu wants to stand up for him. ”

"Don't say it's really possible. ”

......

......

Onlookers watched the Han King and Taifu compete for power on the mountain fairy family or the rivers and lakes under the mountain, also

I may be late, but I will never be absent.

They don't look at the problem like those people in Chang'an, their vision determines everything, and all they can see is to fight and kill!

What they can see is the essence behind the fighting, killing, and killing, Taifu's attitude towards Zhou Nanshan will represent Taifu's attitude towards them to a large extent.

The so-called Taifu's attitude towards Zhou Nanshan, to put it bluntly, is whether to kill or release, or choose to be tough for a Zhou Nanshan and the King of Han.

......

Inside Fan Siyuan's mansion.

Fan Siyuan said with a somewhat bitter face: "Father, I originally wanted to tell you about this from the beginning, but I didn't expect them to come too quickly. Before I could react, I was surrounded by a group of people from the Fifth Realm of the Day After Tomorrow. I can't report to Ben. ”

Fan Zeng said lightly, "With mental calculations or unintentional, it's normal for me to be recruited." Next time, pay attention to the grass snake gray line, the veins are thousands of miles, and when you can't pick up all the threads, it's best to do nothing, such as accepting him. ”

Fan Zeng looked at Zhou Nanshan and said with a somewhat gloomy face: "Master Zhou, I am also very sorry for the matter of your ancestor. ”

Zhou Nanshan dared to hold on to it at the moment, and hurriedly said that he didn't dare or not.

Fan Zeng said: "Later, I will also bother the head of the Zhou family to go with me to meet the king of Han, and say, your Zhou family's affairs." ”
