Chapter 43: Peace of Mind
It's just that Fan Yu is still pretending to be surprised on the surface, so as not to embarrass Wang Feng.
"Uncle Guo, isn't that the brother of the concubine of today's official family? Lord Bao is a disaster, but it is not small. Fan Yu exclaimed.
"Who says it's not, and this An Lehou is not only an uncle, but his father is also an important minister in the court, and he is from Taishi Pang. Think about it, how powerful this is. Wang Feng also smashed his tongue again and again: "If it is pressed, I am afraid that the official family will also issue an order to punish Lord Bao's crimes." However, it is not without a turnaround. Unless...... Lord Bao did a beautiful and proper job of releasing grain in Chenzhou to settle the hungry people, so that he could avoid being questioned by the officials. ”
Fan Yu was not worried, "Brother Wang doesn't have to feel sorry for Lord Bao, I think the situation has stabilized this time for Chenzhou." In two months, it will be decided. At that time, Lord Bao will not only be innocent, but also a meritorious person. ”
Wang Feng nodded and said, "That's right, but you can't be happy too early." If someone fabricates a crime, it's hard to say. ”
"What, is Brother Wang's heart toward Master Bao?" Fan Yu asked with a smile.
"This is natural, Lord Bao Zheng is selfless with a clean breeze and an iron face, both a capable minister and a cadre. In particular, the judgment of the case is clear and meticulous, and it is never in vain. Wang Feng sighed: "Such a good official is never rare." ”
Fan Yu laughed and said, "Brother Wang, when you see Brother Zhan again, you can ask him to take you to visit Master Bao and express your admiration in person." ”
Wang Feng waved his hand, "Don't make fun of me, I'm just the lord of a county now, how can I be qualified to talk to Lord Bao face to face." If you go to deliver official documents, then you can still do it. ”
"Brother Wang, let me ask you." Fan Yu pulled Wang Feng to the side of the road and said in a low voice: "How does this Jia Zhixian treat you?" ”
Hearing Fan Yu ask, Wang Feng couldn't help but be stunned, what is this and what? The topic changed too fast, and I couldn't stand it. This Fan Yu's thinking is out of the box, but it's not a big problem, and he is not an outsider.
"You said that the magistrate of the county, he is just a Shangguan. If you say that you are gracious to me, you will never have it. This person was a little stingy and mean, and he took money and food from the county treasury. Wang Feng also replied in a low voice.
There's nothing to hide about these things, it's basically semi-public, but no one investigates it deeply.
Fan Yu frowned lightly and said, "If he takes away the money and grain from the county treasury, it must be handled by Brother Wang, so don't you worry about it at all." ”
Wang Feng said disapprerovantly: "What is there to worry about, it fell into the pocket of the county magistrate, he will not check, let alone say." ”
"Although no one has come to check at the moment, but Brother Wang has made meritorious contributions after this relief of the hungry, and he will definitely be promoted, and then there will be problems. If anyone in the know is jealous, he will definitely report Brother Wang to the official. Although the magistrate will protect Brother Wang, what if he can't? He will throw Brother Wang out to confess. Fan Yu didn't want Wang Feng to be lucky.
When Wang Feng heard Fan Yu say this, his originally relaxed heart also lifted. He is now less than thirty, and there are still many years to go. If it is because of some stains, it makes you have a bump, it is not good.
However, he didn't think it was a big deal, but persuaded Fan Yudao: "You are just speculating now, I'm afraid it's a bit exaggerated." Accuse me, and I'm just ...... for Lord Zhixian."
Halfway through speaking, Wang Feng couldn't continue what he said. Only then did he remember that all the money and food were handled by himself, but there was nothing to do in Jia Zhixian. If you want to check the account book, you only have to sign your own drawing.
Fan Yu stared at Wang Feng's face, and when he saw his complexion change, he knew that he had guessed correctly. Wang Feng was also used by Jia Zhixian and took responsibility.
"Brother Wang, there is an opportunity now, maybe Brother Wang can get rid of Jia Zhixian's manipulation." Fan Yu said with a smile.
Wang Feng is also a shrewd person, just listening to the beginning, he guessed what Fan Yu meant, and he was very entangled in his heart. Fan Yu mentioned Master Bao just now, and now he is talking about this, obviously asking him to find Master Bao to be the master.
"You said I should tell Lord Bao to report the magistrate?" Wang Feng couldn't help but shake his head, and after a pause, he said: "I won't tell you, although the magistrate is greedy a lot, he also gets some cheap for his brother." If I had come forward to denounce me, would I have become a corrupt person? ”
Fan Yu spread his hands and said: "Brother Wang, if you don't get rid of this Jia Zhixian as soon as possible, I'm afraid he can use these things to control you for a lifetime." The more you do for him in the future, the more wrong you will be, and the stronger you will be under his control. It is far better to take the opportunity to report to Lord Bao to him, and the sun will set briskly as soon as possible. As for the signatures on the account books and other things, how can Master Bao really think that you did it? If you ask, it will all be pushed to Jia Zhixian, and you can only admit the charge of a person who failed to report it in time. ”
"If you are still not at ease, then just accusing him of embezzlement of money and food donated by the righteous squire is enough to convict him."
Wang Feng thought about it, his brows twisted into a pimple, he didn't know what Fan Yu said. If these two months have passed, Jia Zhixian will be promoted, and Wang Feng himself will be recommended as Zhixian. Then, it will really be as Fan Yu said, he will be manipulated by this Shangguan for a lifetime, and he will be pressed forever.
No matter what official he is, he will not exceed the other party's level, but I am afraid that he will inevitably have to search the place where he is in office to honor the other party.
If he had no ambition, Wang Feng might be content with this position as a downline. But he Wang Feng is dedicated to the pursuit of fame, even if he does not make the list in the big exam, he must start from the officials of this county, in order to have a step forward.
Therefore, he also does not want to be a step for others.
Wang Feng finally nodded with difficulty, and said to Fan Yu: "Fan Yu, you have a problem for me." But it's okay, just take advantage of the squire's donation of money and grain, and move this Jiazhi County down. ”
Fan Yu went around in a big circle, and finally let Wang Feng agree to the matter, and the depressed breath in his heart came out a little.
He didn't think he was a person with a strong sense of justice, but when he thought that Jia Zhi County would have to loot even the life-saving money and food of the hungry people, he couldn't bear this breath no matter what.
"Fan Yu, you strongly persuaded me to report the county magistrate, why is this. When you see Lord Zhixian, it only adds up to two times, isn't it because you have a personal enmity with Zhixian? Wang Feng also had doubts, so he naturally wanted to ask for clarification.
Fan Yu didn't have anything to shy away from, and said to Wang Feng: "The county magistrate is greedy, I don't have any opinion." But he had to be greedy for even half of the money and food of the hungry people, and the matter was excessive. I've heard that thieves also have a way, but this magistrate is a man of no way. It's better for Brother Wang to deal with him less, so as not to be harmed or burdened by him. ”
Wang Feng looked at Fan Yu for a long time and didn't speak, he was really frightened by Fan Yu's way of looking at things. How can an ordinary fifteen-year-old boy have this kind of insight and thinking, but he is afraid that he is still coquettish in his mother's arms.
"Are you really only fifteen?" Wang Feng couldn't help but ask what he was thinking.
Fan Yu was startled, and when he saw the other party's puzzled look, he couldn't help waving his hand again and again: "Why did Brother Wang ask this?" There is my household registration in the county to check, and it is all in charge of Brother Wang, can I still be a monster. ”
Wang Feng asked again: "What do you ask for when you do these things?" ”
"I'm just asking for peace of mind." Fan Yu thought for a long time before answering, or that was it.
