Zhou Xingyuan said meaningfully: "Whether I have any silver or not, Brother Han, you know best." ”

How could Han Xiufeng not hear what he was saying, not only was he not angry, but asked curiously: "Brother Zhou, how much silver did you spend to buy peace in Kuizhou?" ”

Zhou Xingyuan smiled bitterly: "Four thousand taels!" ”

Han Xiufeng nodded, thought about it and shook his head: "Brother Zhou, whether you believe it or not, whether it is in Ba County or Kuizhou, I didn't take any benefits from you, but I was chased by you like a lost dog, and I lived in a panic." ”

Zhou Xingyuan believed Han Xiufeng's words, after all, it was not easy to talk about the skin of the tiger, and said helplessly: "It's all cheap for those dog officials!" ”

"So why do we have to suffer, fight back and forth, fight to the death, and fight to the end, all of them make wedding dresses for others."

"Stop fighting."

"I don't think there's anything to be aggressive about." Han Xiufeng didn't want Jiang Haoxuan to wait outside for a long time, so he changed his words: "Brother Zhou, the master of the Criminal Department asked me to persuade you to stop being obsessed and not to be obsessed, don't ask for money and don't die." As long as you are willing to spend a little money, you will not only be able to go out sooner, but you will even be able to donate to your job sooner. I've brought the words, what the hell is you going to do with your own ideas. ”

Zhou Xingyuan asked with a bitter face: "Brother Han, if I have silver, can I wait until today?" ”

"It's useless to tell me this, I'm just a talker," Han Xiufeng got up and said while dusting the ashes on his buttocks: "I guess they will let me persuade me a few times, who do you want to talk to, and if you want to eat, say it quickly, and when they find that no matter how much persuasion is useless, they won't have a chance." ”

"I don't have anything to say, as for food, I won't be polite to my brother, as long as there is wine and meat, this situation will be supplemented by Zhou." Zhou Xingyuan was not a person who didn't know what to do, so he hurriedly got up and bowed down.

"Then I'll go, Brother Zhou cherishes it." Han Xiufeng bowed back, and then walked out without looking back.

………

Walking out of the prison of the Criminal Department, Han Xiufeng said that he did not persuade Zhou Xingyuan, and Jiang Haoxuan was really disappointed. In addition, he had no better way, so he could only thank Han Xiufeng and let him come back tomorrow.

Back at the hall, Pan Er asked where he had been in the afternoon.

Han Xiufeng didn't hide it, and told the ins and outs of the matter one by one.

On the way to Beijing, he was almost framed by Zhou Xingyuan, Pan Er still has palpitations to this day, and can't help asking: "Fourth brother, such a good opportunity, why don't you give his turtle son some color." If you don't die if you fight a snake, there will be endless troubles! ”

"It's not as simple as you think."

"Isn't it easy?"

Han Xiufeng took a sip of water and said helplessly, "Do you know why Master Jiang is in a hurry to let me persuade him?" ”

"Why?" Pan Er asked puzzled.

"Because last year, Yunnan had to transport more than 2 million catties of Yunnan copper, and Zhou Xingyuan only shipped the first batch, and the remaining Yunnan copper will arrive in the capital one after another. How Yunnan officials took the opportunity of copper to make up for the shortfall, Master Jiang knew as well as those officials in the household department. He knew that the Yunnan copper transported by the next few transport officials would also be in short supply, and he knew that when those transport officials handed over the Yunnan copper to the Beijing Bureau, it would be the day it was investigated. ”

"What does this have to do with the turtle son surnamed Zhou?"

"It's a big deal, as the saying goes, the law doesn't blame the public, if the follow-up officials arrive, Zhou Xingyuan will be more fearless. And Master Jiang finally managed to find this errand, so he naturally had to make some benefits, otherwise how would he maintain his livelihood for the next year or even a few years. And this is related to his future, if he can do this errand beautifully, Lord De will naturally treat him differently. If this errand is messed up, let alone fill the vacancy, I am afraid that in the future, I will not even be able to take the turn of the errand committee, so I am anxious to persuade me. ”

Pan Er still couldn't figure it out, and said eagerly: "Fourth brother, what Master Jiang wants is the silver surnamed Zhou, and he doesn't care if you ask for silver." The reason why he took the surname Zhou, and the reason why you asked you to help persuade him, was because he did not have the actual evidence of the prison guard surnamed Zhou stealing. You tell the truth, Master Jiang doesn't have solid evidence, and we can take revenge, killing two birds with one stone, how good! ”

Han Xiufeng glared at him: "What's good, it's better to kill two birds with one stone." If we really fall into the well, we don't know how to die! ”

"Fourth brother, we didn't steal and sell Yunnan copper, what does it have to do with us."

"It doesn't matter if you get involved, how shrewd the surname Zhou is, he obviously has a lot of hard work on the liberation of Yunnan copper, but there is no complaint in the lobby of the criminal department, and he has not been appointed in advance at all, and even the official has made him take the blame to make up for the deficit. If we get our heads hot and put the surname Zhou to death, we will not only affect Uncle Guan, Master Tao and Kuizhou Xiebiao's friends, but also offend those surnamed Zhou in the same year. ”

Han Xiufeng paused, and then said: "It's not that you don't know how much those civil officials value the relationship in the same year, if we help Master Jiang to put the surname Zhou to death at this time, when those surnamed Zhou clean us up in the same year, can Master Jiang help us?" Even if Master Jiang has the heart to help, he can't help a foreigner who is still learning to walk in the Criminal Department! ”

Pan Er reacted and muttered: "That's right, in the eyes of others, we are just grasshoppers, and it is easy to shoot us to death to help the surname Zhou take revenge." ”

"Therefore, this kind of thing cannot be mixed up blindly, and it cannot offend people indiscriminately."

Han Xiufeng thought for a while, and then said: "Don't say that we are the nine-rank sesame officials who were born in donations, even those princes and ministers have to protect themselves. People are so shrewd that they have made up a poem, and they have to take it out and read it every day, and they will save their bodies every day. ”

Pan Er asked curiously, "What's the word?" ”

""A Cut of Plums", I just listened to what Director Zhang said." Han Xiufeng put down the tea bowl and read: "The official journey drill thorn must be Seiko, Jingxin Changtong, and Tan Jing Changfeng; Don't talk about current affairs and be heroes, blindly round, blindly humble; The minister's economy should be calm, don't show miraculous achievements, don't say loyalty; All kinds of personnel are calm, there is no need to discuss, and there is no need to refute. The eight parties have nothing to do, the years are abundant, the national fortune is long, and the official fortune is passing; Everyone praises and wants to be harmonious, good and bad; There is no disaster and no trouble to the third duke, the wife is honored, and the son is in the shade; The future generations are even more infinite, and if you don't say Wenzhong, you will be Wengong. ”

"Good words, fourth brother, this "A Cut Plum" is so good, can I write one when I go back, I will also take it out every day to see it, and save my body three times a day."

"Okay, I'll write to you tomorrow."

Pan Er thought about it and asked: "Fourth brother, let's not talk nonsense, Master Jiang doesn't have the real evidence of the prison guard surnamed Zhou stealing himself, so the turtle son surnamed Zhou will be fine if he steals so much Yunnan copper?" ”

Han Xiufeng muttered: "How can it be okay, he is short of more than 100,000 catties of Yunnan copper, unprecedented, appalling, the imperial court will definitely deal with him, but don't worry about losing his head, don't worry about being drained by the rod." I was lucky enough to release it for a year and a half, and spent some money to donate it to my job. If you are unlucky, you will be sent out to a bitter cold place to listen to it after you come out. ”
