Just when Fang Zi'an was bathing and changing clothes and enjoying the joy of getting together, there was a different scene in the small hall of the back house of the East Prime Minister's Mansion in Wangxian Bridge, Zhonghe Royal Street.

When the news of Fang Zi'an's return to Lin'an arrived in Qin Hui's mansion, Qin Hui and Qin Tan's ancestors and grandsons were dining. Hearing this news, Qin Tan immediately lost even the slightest appetite.

"What's going on? How can this guy come back alive? Mr. Qin, they didn't succeed? How is this possible? Qin Tan said loudly.

Qin Hui frowned and put it on his chopsticks, pondered for a moment and said, "Qin Tan, don't be uncontrollable, ask first and then speak." ”

Qin Tan sighed and began to ask for the details of the guards who reported the news. When he learned that only Fang Zi'an rode back to the capital alone, Qin Tan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Grandpa, Fang Zi'an doesn't seem to have made any name for himself. He came back alone, and it seemed that he had escaped. Presumably, Qin Lu is still useful in Wuhu, at least he didn't spoil our business. Qin Tan said.

Qin Hui glanced at Qin Tan reproachfully and said, "Qin Tan, if you look at yourself, your attitude is very different, this is the reason why you are unstable and can't make up your mind." Don't panic in case of trouble, ask clearly, think clearly, and then you can make a conclusion. ”

Qin Tan hurriedly bowed and said, "What Grandpa taught is that the grandson is indeed reckless. That's why my grandson cares too much about it. This Fang Zi'an, grandson hated him so much. I planted it in his hands three times and several times, and this guy used his grandson as a monkey. The last time Xia Liangdong was going to solve him, but Xia Liangdong's idiot ended up by himself. Some time ago, we sent someone to deliberately set fire to tempt him to take the bait to investigate, so as to set up a situation to deal with him, but this guy was still not fooled. This time, too, more than 30 people went to Wuhu to kill him in Wuhu County, what was the result? He came back with a swagger, how could his grandson calm down? This dog thing is lingering in front of us, and I get angry when I look at it. ”

Qin Hui looked at Qin Tan and shook his head and sighed, "You can't stand such a little thing?" How can you do great things in the future? I think how many people attacked the old man for collaborating with the enemy, and the Manchu Dynasty and the military forces attacked and impeached the old man, but the old man was not calm, and told them to shut up one by one. It is necessary to have concentration and means to achieve it. Your previous tactics weren't very clever. Xia Liangdong's guy is overwhelmed, you want him to deal with Fang Zi'an, what use can he have except mess things up? As for arson, there is some calculation. You want to lure him to investigate this matter, let him target us, make things bigger, and turn it around, and sue him for slander and slander, which is still a bit interesting. However, this method is ultimately inferior. If the flaw is too obvious, it will arouse suspicion. It makes sense that Fang Zi is not fooled. ”

Qin Tan smacked his lips and said, "What about this time?" This time, Lord Cao and his grandfather discussed and decided. The Zhang family's case led Fang Zi'an to Wuhu, which was an opportunity to do everything, but he still escaped back. ”

Qin Hui said in a deep voice: "I don't know. Now that you know that Fang Zi'an came back alone, you know that he didn't find any evidence. Our aim is to cut off Zhang Xiaoxiang and his son. Isn't it enough that he went there without finding witness evidence and returning in vain? It's best to kill him in Wuhu County, and if you can't kill him, you can leave it for disposal later. Let's solve the Zhang family father and son first. This thing can't wait any longer. In front of the emperor, some people persuaded the emperor to postpone the trial for a few days, but now seven days have passed, and the emperor has no reason to postpone it. Tomorrow I will personally go to the emperor and ask for the immediate conclusion of the case. So as not to have many dreams at night. ”

Qin Tan said: "Grandpa, now it can be concluded that Fang Zi'an is the person of the king of Pu'an." The king of Pu'an asked to postpone the Zhang family's case, and Fang Zi'an went to Wuhu to find evidence to try to overturn the case, which was obviously cooperating. ”

Qin Hui sneered: "That's true, without the support of the King of Pu'an, how dare a little Fang Zi'an jump out like this." He's looking for his own death. Originally, I didn't have any special impression of this Fang Zi'an. But now it seems that this guy is jumping so badly that he really needs to be dealt with. disposed of the Zhang family's father and son, and he will be next. Qin Tan, don't be impatient, solve them one by one. Anyone who is against my Qin family, don't even want to live. ”

Qin Tan said: "Grandpa, in fact, I'm not too worried about Fang Zi'an's troubles, I'm worried about the matter of the king of Pu'an." If the matter of the establishment of the reserve cannot be decided, there will be continuous turmoil after all. If one day the emperor is confused and appoints the king of Pu'an County as the crown prince and inherits the unification in the future, it will be a big joke. I feel that although grandpa has a lot of influence in front of the emperor, the emperor himself seems to have opinions, and he may not listen to grandpa in some matters. This makes people feel uneasy after all. ”

Qin Hui stroked his beard and laughed and said, "Qin Tan, you think too much, and you think your grandfather is too incompetent. Are you and I able to have this day completely by the emperor's reward? You remember, although the emperor has his own opinions, he can not listen to me. However, I also have a way to counter him. If the emperor goes too far, I will find a way to get him to change his ways. Unless he doesn't take into account this great Song Jiangshan. The one thing he fears most is within my control. If he dared to ignore the old man's opinion, the old man would poke his lung tubes and make it difficult for him to sleep. ”

Qin Tan was stunned: "Oh? Grandpa actually has the means to restrain the emperor? What is that? ”

Qin Hui waved his hand and said, "There are some things that you don't need to know too much about, and they won't do you any good." In the future, you will know. ”

Fang Zi'an had a lot of things waiting for him to deal with. But he still chose to go back to the yamen first. Especially during the period when he left, there was no major incident in the yamen. Whether the arson case continues to happen is something that Fang Zi'an is very concerned about. Although I heard Qin Xiqing say that on the side of the Wantou Village Manufacturing Bureau, the Dream was ready to set sail, and it had been postponed for several days in order to wait for Fang Zi'an to come back, and everyone was waiting for Fang Zi'an to come back. But Fang Zi'an still couldn't go to Wantou Village first.

The next morning, Fang Zi'an returned to the Yamen of the Defense Army. Li Dalong, Lei Hu and others were very happy when they saw Fang Zi'an coming back. They actually knew that Lord Fang was not at home, but had left the capital. As for what to do, it is unknown.

"My lord, you miss us to death. During this time, the gossip made us all up and down in our hearts. It's good that the adults are finally back. The veteran Wang Jin served tea and stood aside happily.

Fang Zi'an drank tea and smiled: "Oh? Words? What kind of gossip? ”

Wang Jin was just about to speak, Li Dalong waved his hand and said: "Don't listen to his nonsense, it's just that there are rumors that Lord Fang left the capital and went to other places, and there was an accident in the field." I don't know where the news came from, saying that the adults are afraid that they will not be able to come back, and that our yamen is going to change the sky. ”

Lei Hu also said: "It's all some bastard things who are unwilling, I heard that someone deliberately spread such rumors." If I find out who said it, I'll pick his skin. ”

Fang Zi'an nodded slightly, he knew that there must be many people in his yamen who were dissatisfied with him, and there were also many people who reported to others. The purpose of these people is to confuse the yamen and spread rumors and deceive them. This time, it must be a verbal offensive launched after cooperating with himself to go to Wuhu. It's just to shake people's hearts and give them a chance.

"But my lord, Lord Zheng, the fire officer, has been here once and got angry. said that you deceived Shangguan and pretended to be sick

In fact, he left his post without permission, saying that he would punish you well when you came back. Li Dalong said.

Fang Zi'an rolled his eyes, he wanted to go to Wuhu in a low-key manner and not let outsiders know. But this matter is well known, and I didn't expect it. Zheng Xie ran to say this, I am afraid that he also thinks that he does not treat him as a human being. However, Zheng Xie will not really dwell on this matter, which is actually not a big deal. But there is a need for posture.

"Wang Jin, you go to the Huozheng Yamen to run for me, and ask to see Master Zheng, so I said that I knew I was wrong, and I accepted the punishment. I am willing to punish myself for three months, and I ask Lord Zheng to calm his anger. You tell Master Zheng that in two days, I will finish the backlog of things in the yamen, and I will personally go to him to confess my guilt and let him scold him in person. ”

Wang Jin nodded hurriedly and said that he would go in a while. Lei Hu said disapprenously: "Is there this necessary?" But after leaving today, nothing happened in the yamen. ”

Fang Zi'an said with a smile: "Lord Zheng's face still has to be given." I confessed to the punishment for three months, and Master Zheng can put it in his pocket, and he will not be more serious. Speaking of which, I did leave my post without permission, did I? ”

Only then did Li Dalong and others understand what it meant to punish themselves for three months, and it turned out that this was just a disguised gift. Lord Fang's three-month salary is also a lot, hundreds of taels of silver, Lord Zheng is high-sounding in his pocket, what is there to dissatisfaction with.

Fang Zi'an asked about Song Xiang again, and Li Dalong told Fang Zi'an that Song Xiang had indeed come to Fang Zi'an a few times. Because since the last time an arsonist died, his trail has been broken. The other arsonist gave limited clues, and since Fang Zi'an left, there has been no arson case, and he can't find any clues, so he came to Fang Zi'an to discuss how to continue the investigation of this case and ask for Fang Zi'an's opinion. I have come several times in the past few days to ask if Fang Zi'an's condition has improved.

Fang Zi smiled bitterly in peace of mind, Song Xiang was a straight man with perseverance, and he was dedicated to investigating the case, and he didn't know the twists and turns here. The death of the arsonist was obviously a signal that the other party did not want the Criminal Division to intervene. Naturally, they will not leave any flaws behind. Song Xiang is afraid that this case will not be solved, unless he really has the ability to find clues about another arsonist. That's what Fang Zi'an is happy to see. However, Fang Zi'an asked himself if he couldn't help him with anything.

During the conversation, Fang Zi'an learned that the construction and upgrading of firefighting equipment at various stations was encountering problems. The main structure has been built, but the lifting mechanism of the key dragon king car cannot be carried out because of the participation of Fang Zi'an. Therefore, the first five dragon king cars built could not be assembled. This was a big deal, and Fang Zi'an immediately got up and led everyone to the Qiantang Gate station, which was the site for the centralized construction and upgrading of the ladder car and the dragon king car.

After arriving, Fang Zi'an immediately ordered several blacksmiths involved in the construction to come and personally teach them the principles and key points of forging. These are not difficult techniques, they are nothing more than the ingenious design of mechanical forces. As long as a set is created, the back will be painted according to the gourd, and the installation and commissioning will be completed.

After teaching all day, several blacksmiths mastered the essentials and made sure that they could build and assemble independently, so Fang Zi'an stopped. This is a big deal, and upgrading firefighting equipment is the foundation of the defense army. Their own one-third of an acre of land must be managed well, and the brand of the defense army must be erected, which is the foundation of their official career.

In the evening, Fang Zi'an declined the invitation of Li Dalong, Lei Hu and others to pick up the wind and wash the dust for himself, and rode to Qingyuan. Not long ago, Shen Ling'er sent a message informing Fang Zi'an to go to Qingyuan in the evening, and the prince wanted to see him in Qingyuan, Fang Zi'an happily went to the meeting, and he also wanted to know the progress of the case of the Zhang family's father and son.
