Chapter 45: Abandoning the Car to Protect the Commander
45 Abandon the car and protect the handsome
As Zhu Xuanzhi expected, after Zhang Yue, who had no fish supervisor, arrived in Jingzhou, he made a secret visit and made inquiries in many ways, and investigated the illegal things done by Ruan Hong and his party clearly, and also arrested Ruan Hong's accomplice who colluded with the temple to seize the people's land, and the abbot of Fu'an Temple.
This good deed is a demon supported by Ruan Hong, and many of Ruan Hong's deeds are done by doing good deeds with false hands. Although this Fu'an Temple is prosperous on the surface and there are many monks, the monks are all minions of good deeds, hitting the bell and chanting scriptures during the day, participating in Zen meditation, spending all day and drinking at night, robbing the house, it is simply a group of jackals in robes, defiling the birds and beasts of the Buddha's family.
After Zhang Yue went to Jingzhou to investigate everything clearly, she quietly designed to infiltrate Fu'an Temple, and arrested Xingshan, where can Xingshan withstand the means of Wuyu Prison, Zhang Yue fiddled with it slightly, confessed everything, and handed over some of Ruan Hong's handwritten letters and other evidence.
Zhang Yue also went on business, wrote a book of detailed details of the case, and reported it to him, and then returned to Chang'an with good deeds and evidence. Because the case had not yet been concluded, Ruan Hong could not be arrested, so Zhang Yue had to arrange for someone from Wuyu Prison to take care of him.
As soon as Zhang Yue's recital arrived at the imperial court, it immediately caused an uproar. Because this Ruan Hong is not only the confidant of the second son Yu Wenshen, but also a very important local official, he was participated in not long after taking office, and the crime was still colluding with the temple and forcibly occupying the land, which made many people in the court fidget, waiting for Yu Wenhu to deal with this matter. Because there are many officials and nobles above the court, everyone has a share in the private annexation of people's land and encroachment on land.
Yu Wenshen was in the Purple Cloud Pavilion at this time, and accused the great priest Kou Lu Zheng: "Didn't Ruan Hong's case be handed over to you at the beginning? What did you say in the first place? patted his chest and assured his son that those Diao Min were instructed to come to Chang'an to complain, as long as they tried to appease them, and then made the testimony of the case more vague, it can be said that the evidence was insufficient, and Diao Min was instigated to falsely accuse the court officials to ensure that Ruan Hong was fine, now what? came out a bald donkey called Benevolence, shook out all the things about Ruan Hong, and let Wuyujian grasp the evidence, what do you want to do now? ”
The chief priest Kou Lu Zheng was also sweating profusely, and said hesitantly: "At the beginning, I did send those Diao people away, and the case file did show that Ruan Hong was not guilty, this matter is related to the imperial court, and it was tried by the three legal divisions such as the Sikou Mansion, and the case was also decided at the beginning." Behold...... Who knew that Tsukazai suddenly sent Wuyu Prison to re-investigate thoroughly, and we couldn't interfere with it, so Ruan Hong would also ...... was also caught off guard, and a lot of things didn't have time to deal with, so Zhang Yue grabbed the handle......"
"This Ruan Hong is such a piece of rubbish!" Yuwen scolded angrily: "When Zhang Yue went, Ben Gongzi had already sent someone to inform him, why did he still let people catch the handle?" What does that good deed know about? What do they write in their letters? What's left? Does any of this involve anyone else? It's not clear now, okay, disaster is coming......"
"Childe, so far, I can only ...... I can only abandon the car to protect the handsome. Lu Zheng said carefully,
"Abandon the car to protect the handsome? What an abandoned car to protect the handsome! Who let the car go? Yes? Yuwen Shen roared.
"This ......, please come up with an idea." Lu Zheng panicked.
"Someone! Come! Yuwen Shen shouted.
"What do you command?" Master came in and asked,
"Go. Tell Wei Teng to lead people to guard the main road of Jingzhou in Chang'an Road, and kill the bald donkey who does good deeds first. Yuwen roared.
"Yes, my subordinates will go and call Wei Teng," the master hurriedly ran away.
"What else can I do? What to do? Come on, prepare the car, go to Taoyuan! Yuwenshen was a little hysterical.
Tao yuan.
Zhu Xuanzhi was sitting quietly in the front hall, fiddling with the string of prayer beads in his hand, sometimes holding the tea in front of him, and drinking it thoughtfully......
Suddenly, Uncle Tian came in to report that the second son, Yu Wenshen, was here, and Zhu Xuanzhi had to get up to greet him. Not long after he got up, he saw Yuwen Shen coming in in a hurry, and Zhu Xuanzhi bowed and said, "I've been waiting for my son for a long time." ”
Yuwen Shen replied: "Mr. knows that this son is coming, so he must know what is going on?" ”
"Childe is for Ruan Hong, right? Childe, please take a seat inside. Zhu Xuanyi said a word.
The two sat opposite each other in the front hall, and Zhu Xuanzhi made tea for Yuwen Shen. Yu Wenshen said: "Presumably, Mr. also knows, Ruan Hong is in big trouble, and he asks Mr. to plan for us to resolve it." ”
"Ruan Tingshi is in big trouble, but Gongzi has to think clearly, do you really want to help him solve it?" Taketake's asked.
Yu Wenshen was very puzzled by Zhu Xuanzhi's words, but still said: "Mr. may also know that Ruan Hongnai is a feudal official cultivated by this son, and he can be regarded as loyal to this son." ”
"I am loyal to my son, but I may not be able to the court, and it is not this that makes my son think clearly." Zhu Xuanzhi disagreed.
Yu Wenshen looked puzzled and asked, "What does that gentleman mean?" ”
Zhu Xuanzhi took a sip of tea and asked, "Okay, then I would like to ask Childe, what crime did Ruan Hong who Zhang Yue verified?" ”
Yuwen took a deep breath and said: "According to Zhang Yue's report, Ruan Hong embezzled and accepted bribes, colluded with temples, encroached on people's land, and robbed people's daughters. ”
Zhu Xuanzhi continued to ask: "Then has an official committed such a thing before?" ”
Yu Wenshen said without thinking: "In the past, there were, but there were, isn't Ruan Hong's predecessor Wan Xiang?" ”
Zhu Xuanzhi then asked: "Who did Wan Xiang go to investigate thoroughly?" ”
"This, of course, was thoroughly investigated by the Grand Secretary of the Autumn Palace, and the Three Law Divisions were finalized and disposed of, what's wrong?" Yu Wenshen replied truthfully.
Zhu Xuanzhi kept asking: "Can the fishless prison intervene?" ”
"Huh? That's right, Wan Xiang's conviction did not alarm the fishless prison, but the three divisions will interrogate, this time Ruan Hong's matter, why did his father use the fishless prison to investigate the case? Yu Wenshen began to wonder.
Zhu Xuanzhi indicated: "As far as I know, the last time Ruan Hong was accused was also interrogated by the three divisions, and then he was safe and sound, why did he have to reopen the old case this time, and send someone from Wuyu Prison to go?" ”
Yuwen Shen understood: "What does Mr. mean is that my father sent someone to thoroughly investigate Ruan Hong in order to bring Ruan Hong down, not the people of Shizi?" ”
"This is what I asked Childe to think clearly, is Childe sure he wants to go against Tsukasa Jae?" Zhu Xuanzhi affirmed Yu Wenshen's words.
"Nope! No! How dare this son go against his father? Yu Wenshen immediately denied it.
"In that case, does Childe still want to interfere?" Zhu Xuanzhi asked again.
Yuwen frowned and was silent for a long time, but he was always unwilling, and continued: "Why did my father attack Ruan Hong? Isn't there a way to do both? ”
"Because the treasury is out of money!" Zhu Xuanzhi replied.
"The treasury has no money, but what does it matter to Ruan Hong?" Yuwen was really puzzled.
Zhu Xuanzhi explained: "Childe just said that Tsukasa Jae punished Ruan Hong and Wan Xiang for the same crime but did not punish them differently, and turned over the old case that had already been decided, that is because Tsukasa Zai had long been ready to do something to Ruan Hong, and to put it more directly, he was ready to use Ruan Hong's money for other purposes. ”
Yu Wenshen was a little dissatisfied: "Mr. is saying that my father thoroughly investigated Ruan Hong in order to copy out the silver for disaster relief in Jingzhou?" ”
"Yes, the treasury is almost spent, and Tsukasa Zai, the head of the family, naturally has to find a way to let Zhang Yue investigate the case, so it is only a matter of time before Ruan Hong falls. This time, Tsukasa Jae stretched out his hand to Childe and Ruan Hong, didn't Childe give it? Zhu Xuanzhi said with a smile.
"However, there are more corrupt officials and corrupt officials, why does my father keep an eye on my son?" Yu Wenshen was still dissatisfied.
"Hehe, that's Childe's problem." Zhu Xuanzhi said with a smile: "Gongzi is famous, he has always been frugal and simple, strictly controlled, and never extravagant and wasteful. Even if someone respects the silver, the son will sternly refuse. Moreover, Gongzi shook out the matter of the prince's construction of Hailu Garden and Cui Sikong's purchase of a house and concubines, so that Tsukasa Zai knew that the prince had squandered all his money, and it was useless to check them again. Therefore, Ruan Hong, who has money and does not spend it, will go under the knife. ”
"This ......" Yu Wenshen was really speechless, he didn't expect that his usual set would be used by his father so much.
"Another point is that a thorough investigation of Cui Sikong is widely implicated and will affect the overall stability. And they are fishing for the silver for His Majesty to repair the palace, this matter cannot be easily shaken out, and it will hurt the royal face. Zhu Xuanzhi approached Yu Wenshen and said.
"What a pity! Pity! Yuwen patted his thigh and sighed.
"I know that Childe and Son have been fighting for many years, and sometimes some things still need money to settle down, although Childe is not a person who loves money, but there is no money, and sometimes some people do not buy Childe's account. And Ruan Hong did help Gongzi a lot in this regard, and it is reasonable for Gongzi to thank him for his help, and there is a more important point, that is, according to the resumes of the previous Jingzhou assassins, anyone who governs this place is likely to enter the Sixth Palace and participate in the decision-making of major affairs of the imperial court, in this way, the imperial court will have one more important minister to help Gongzi in the future. Zhu Xuanzhi said Ruan Hong's role.
When Yu Wenshen heard this, he had a little spirit, and said a little impatiently: "Since Mr. knows Ruan Hong's role in this son, why not design to save him?" ”
Zhu Xuanzhi took a sip of tea unhurriedly and said, "Childe should understand that Ruan Hong can't be saved, but can't be saved." If Childe still can't make up his mind, then tell Childe a story. ”
"The story? Sir, please speak! "Yuwen Shen is very respectful.
"In the Spring and Autumn Period, King Yue Goujian's adviser Fan Li Gongzi knows?" Taketake's asked.
"Of course the famous Fan Li knows." Yu Wenshen thought that the scholar opposite was laughing at him.
Zhu Xuanzhi continued: "In the "Historical Records", it is said: After Fan Li's suicide note left Goujian, the king of Yue, he took a boat to the country of Qi, changed his name and surname, farmed by the sea, endured hardships and stood hard work, and the father and son worked together to govern the industry. After living for a short time, he accumulated a lot of property. The Qi people heard that he was virtuous and made him the minister of state. Fan Li sighed and said: "Living at home has accumulated thousands of gold and property, and being an official has reached a high position as a minister, and it is not auspicious to enjoy such extreme dignity and dignity for a long time." So he returned Xiangyin, scattered all his property, gave it to his bosom friends, fellow villagers, and neighbors, and secretly left, and went to live in the pottery land. Soon after arriving in the pottery field, the family assets accumulated to tens of thousands. Everyone in the world praises Tao Zhugong. Fan Li's three moves are all famous, and their names will be remembered for future generations. But when he was in the Qi Kingdom, he lost the life of his second son. ”
