Chapter 1869: Chang Fang
Just like Hongshi thought, when the words "Fengjiang Official" drilled into Chang Fang's ears, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, that was the second grade or even the first grade, he never dared to think about it in his life, he didn't expect that now, there is really a chance, although it is still far away, but it is indeed a chance.
However, he didn't understand one thing, Ziyu was just a little girl, and Hongshi was the prince of the dynasty and the prince of the imperial court, why he wanted to allow himself such a big benefit for her, which was really unreasonable.
"This king knows that there are many questions in the heart of the Chang classics, and this king promises you that when the time is ripe, he will definitely tell the Chang classics one by one, but now is really not the time. This king has said everything, and now it is only up to the choice of the regular classics, whether to seize the opportunity, or to only make a small classic for the rest of his life. ”
Staring at Chang Fang's eyes, Hongshi was seventy percent sure that he would agree, and sure enough, after thinking for a while, Chang Fang gritted his teeth and said: "Xia Guan is willing to serve the prince and serve the dogs and horses!"
"Good!" Hongshi ordered someone to take the silver, and handed the IOU to Chang Fang, and then said: "Be sure to let them sign this IOU, after signing, you immediately bring it to this king, or this courtyard, if this king is not there, give it to Wang Zhong, he will transfer it to this king, do you know the way?" ”
"Don't worry, since the lower officials have promised the prince, it will definitely be done."
Hongshi nodded slightly, and then said: "Remember, when you take the IOU to this queen, anyone asks you, you have to say that you don't know about the IOU, and you haven't lent the silver to the Ziyu family, in short, you don't know anything about this matter." And the one who lent the silver to Ziyu's family is also this king, not you. ”
"Xia Guan remembered." Chang Fang didn't ask much in a witty way, and after he left, Hongshi slowly clenched his hands, hoping that everything would go well, otherwise he really didn't know how to dispel Huang Ama's suspicions.
After Chang Fang returned home with his things, he immediately called Ziyu to ask about her brother, and then went to her house, when he put the silver into the house, Ziyu's family, who had never seen so much silver, were all stunned, and after knowing that it was Chang Fang who planned to lend them the dowry and the money for marriage, they said again and again that they didn't need to. After all, their family has nothing to do with Chang Fang, and no one dares to take such a large amount of money, and it doesn't take so much to get married.
Chang Fang is also a master who can speak well, and under his persuasion, the Ziyu family finally accepted the silver, repeatedly promising that they would return it as soon as they had it. Originally, he only planned to borrow fifty taels, but Chang Fang persuaded them to take more silver to their side, in case the other party had any requirements, it would be good to be in a hurry, and the Ziyu family thought about it, and if they didn't need so much silver, they could pay back part of it first after they became married.
The next day, when Hongshi took the IOU from Chang Fang from Wang Zhong's hand, his heart hanging in mid-air finally let go, and then he took the pen and added the date at the bottom, not today nor yesterday, but more than a month ago.
As for the next, it depends on whether his explanation can make Huang Ama dispel his suspicions. It's just that every time he thinks of Huang Ama, he can't help but be angry, if it weren't for Huang Ama blindly favoring the woman of Niu Hulu's family, how could she make such a big wave and make him forced to kill Xu. I hate it, I hate Huang Ama so much, obviously they are all sons, but he only has Hongli in his eyes.
Although he did it very decisively, the moment the knife really pierced the Xu family, there was still a trace of unbearability in his heart. If it weren't for Niu Hulu, he and Xu wouldn't have come this far; If it weren't for the fourth, he wouldn't have walked so the emperor's road.
He won't just forget it, he must remove these two hardest stumbling blocks on the emperor's road, when he is in power, he will repay all the pain and pain he has suffered a hundred times on these two.
He swears!
Subsequently, Hongshi entered the palace with the IOU, and after seeing Yinzhen, he knelt down and said: "Huang Ama, Erchen finally knows why Zirong wronged Erchen and Xu. ”
Yin Zhen raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, then you can tell me and listen to it." ”
"Because of this IOU!" Hongshi handed the IOU to Sixi, and he presented it to Yinzhen, who glanced at the content on the paper and said indifferently: "What does this have to do with Zirong?" ”
"Back to the emperor Ama, the borrower of this IOU is Zirong's brother, when Xu gave his son a kite, Erchen had several encounters with Zirong, and then she came to find Erchen, saying that her brother was going to get married, but she couldn't make up the dowry money, and I hope Erchen can borrow a little. Although Erchen felt abrupt, he saw that she was pitiful, so he agreed, and wrote an IOU at that time. Later, Zirong came back from Hui'an Temple with the Xu family, and hinted to Erchen that his family was poor and could not pay the silver, and hoped that Erchen could avoid borrowing silver this time, but Erchen was not happy, so he did not agree, and asked her to return the silver as soon as possible. Presumably because of that incident, she was suspicious, so she deliberately said that Erchen had an affair with the Xu family. ”
Yin Zhen said noncommittally: "Since this is the case, why didn't you say it that day?" ”
Hongshi lowered his head and said: "Erchen didn't take this matter to heart at all, and he didn't expect Zirong to hold a grudge against Erchen because of this matter, and he didn't think of it until Erchen accidentally saw the IOU today." ”
Yin Zhen looked at the paper in his hand, half-believed what Hongshi said, and was silent for a while, he said: "Hongshi, I heard that when Xu Guiren was in Hui'an Temple, you often went out of the city, where did you go?" ”
Hongshi's heart sank, and he said quietly: "If you go back to Huang Ama, during that time, the ministers happened to patrol the manor, counting the harvest of the manor fields and forests, and sometimes it was late, so they simply spent the night in the garden. After a pause, he said cautiously: "Isn't Huang Amamo really suspected that Erchen was having an affair with the Xu family, right?" Seeing that Yinzhen didn't speak, he said again: "Even if the son is not filial, he will not do such a rebellious thing, Huang Ama ......"
Without waiting for him to continue, Yin Zhen said: "Okay, this matter is known, you can retreat first." ”
Hongshi didn't dare to say more, and withdrew from the Heart Cultivation Hall with a little apprehension, and after he left, Yinzhen said to Sixi: "Immediately go and check whether what Hongshi said is true, and whether the name on it is true." ”
Sixi hurriedly took the paper and left, before the palace gate was closed, he returned to the palace and said: "Your Majesty, what the second elder brother said is indeed true, Brother Zirong has been hired, and he will get married one day, and he also admitted that he had asked someone to borrow two hundred taels of silver, but he said that he didn't know the second elder brother, and the silver was not lent to him by the second elder brother, but by his sister Ziyu's master Chang Fang." The slave inquired about Chang Fang is the classic book of the Taichang Temple. ”
"Zhengqipin......" Yin Zhen muttered and repeated, "Zhengqipin is only a little silver a year, how can I get two hundred taels at once, and still lend it to a subordinate." ”
