Chapter 121: Bad News

It stands to reason that the Spring Festival Examination will not start for more than half a month, and even though it was expected that the Yasukuni Guild would come relatively early, the officials in Nanyang City were still a little surprised.

At this time, in the Nanyang Mansion, a group of officials seemed to be talking about something, knowing that Chen Wenjing, the prefect of Nanyang who was sitting at the top, coughed softly, and everyone came back to their senses. They all looked at Chen Wenjing.

"There are some things in Lord Xue's family that can't come for the time being, so today's regular meeting will be presided over by Lord Ben." Chen Wenjing glanced around at the officials, and saw that no one objected, so she was relieved.

As the capital of Yuzhou, Chen Wenjing, the prefect of Nanyang, can be said to be quite unpleasant, a Yuzhou governor Xue Yang and Yuzhou general Li Jun are pressed on their heads, as the third-in-command of Nanyang City, he has to always take care of the Xue family's feelings, that is, the capital Shuntianfu is not so aggrieved, fortunately, there is still a year to be transferred, Chen Wenjing is only for stability, not for meritorious service, and he will finish this year as the prefect in peace and stability.

Hearing that Xue Yang was not coming, although everyone felt that something was wrong, but thinking about what happened in Nanyang City yesterday, they also had some understanding, after all, that Yasukuni Duke was too strong.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think I have heard about yesterday's incident, let's not discuss it on the Xue family's side, now let's just talk about this Yasukuni Gong." Chen Wenjing made a start.

Everyone frowned, only to see that the Hede County Commander took the lead in standing up and said: "Lord Chen, none of us have served in the capital, and we are not very familiar with the Yasukuni Gong, you are from the capital, you should be more familiar than us." Let's talk about it first. ”

Everyone echoed, Chen Wenjing glanced at everyone, saw that they all meant this, thought about it and spoke: "Okay, I'll tell you about it." Let's take a closer look. ”

After clearing his throat, Chen Wenjing said: "This Yasukuni Duke is only twenty years old this year, but he has a lot of experience. Here are a few things about this grandfather. ”

"In the second year of Qide, the ancestor of Yasukuni died, and now Nanyang, who is only ten years old, rode alone to the north on a snowy night, and the emperor recalled several times to disobey the order, so far he has stayed in the north for ten years."

"In the tenth year of Qide, the Duke of Yasukuni led the Black Feather Army to raid the court of the Zuo Ledger and killed the King of Zuo Xian with three arrows, and his reputation caught up with the three generations of the Duke of Yasukuni back then, and his prestige shocked the Court of the Golden Horde. At that time, our Yasukuni Duke was only 19 years old. ”

"Now, that is, the recent thing, compared to everyone who also knows, swept the Jiangsu and Zhejiang families with a thunderous momentum, and successively brought down the Dai family, the Wang family, and Xue Li, and there are many rumors in the outside world that Shen Lian did it, but you and I both know that if there is no Yasukuni Gong, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang cases will be delayed until at least this year."

After taking a sip of tea and moistening his throat, Chen Wenjing stopped speaking, and quietly looked at the expressions of his colleagues, and the crowd at this time had no other feelings except for headaches.

This Yasukuni Duke is full of three big characters from the inside to the place: Don't mess with me. But now that the spring exam is about to take place, it is difficult for anyone here not to communicate with him. If it were any other place, it would be fine, but there is still a Xue family in this Nanyang City.

Just when everyone was crying, a voice suddenly came from the door: "According to the old man's opinion, you should worry about the other one first." ”

Everyone turned around and saw that it was Lord He Wenchang He standing at the door, and immediately got up and saluted. Chen Wenjing was a little surprised to see He Wenchang coming here, because the other party didn't like to participate in this kind of small meeting.

Arching his hand towards Chen Wenjing, He Wenchang put the letter in his hand on the table, glanced around at the officials present, and said in a deep voice: "There was news from Anyang Mansion just now, and the Anyang Prefect has been investigated. ”

"What?!" Everyone was shocked, some couldn't believe that this was true, some time ago, many people here were still drinking with the prefect of Anyang, and they were investigated in just a few days?

Chen Wenjing was quite calm, only to see him look at He Wenchang and ask, "Lord He, is the news true or false?" What other crimes? ”

Glancing at Chen Wenjing, He Wenchang said: "The news is true, it was sent to my house early this morning, and you also know that Liu Ke, the prefect of Anyang, is my classmate and friend." And the one who investigated him was Yao Lian, the chief examiner of Yuzhou who was sent by the capital, and he was accused of fraud in the field. ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked, and one of them said: "What are you kidding, there is still half a month left in the Spring Exam, where did the fraud come from?" ”

Chen Wenjing also nodded in agreement, but He Wenchang was not angry, but said lightly: "In August of the sixth year of Qide, Anyang Mansion Township Examination, Yayuan Wang Wenshuo, was asked by Yao Lian at the banquet, and the question was the third question of the township examination that year. Guys, do you want me to be clear? ”

Everyone was dumbfounded, and they couldn't take the original question, so they would naturally be suspicious, but no matter how you look at it, it is weird. Chen Wenjing pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said, "Yao Lian knows about this, but there is no evidence, he is cheating!" ”

He Wenchang nodded, there is an unwritten rule in Da Zhou, the first three articles will pass the screening and be included in the Hanlin Academy, and it is a coincidence that Yao Lian has been in the Hanlin Academy for a lot of time, and it is even more coincidental that Yao Lian happened to see Wang Wenshuo's article, and also happened to mention Wang Wenshuo's person who wrote the article, Yao Lian had some impressions.

This kind of impossible coincidence came together, creating this Anyang science field fraud case, even after many years, it was turned out, the court did not intend to let go of a person, Anyang prefect Liu Ke, dereliction of duty and fraud was taken to prison, sent to Beijing pending trial, Anyang school and politics are extremely evil, participated in fraud, has been put on death row.

The storm in Anyang Mansion instantly made the entire Yuzhou unpredictable, and the officials present at this time couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, there was a fierce tiger in front of them, and there was a hungry wolf behind them. As long as one of them is not careful, he will die without a whole body.

He Wenchang saw that the atmosphere was a little depressed, and he sighed helplessly, thinking that the Duke of Yasukuni would just toss it alone, and he might not be able to hold it out if he gritted his teeth, but who would have thought that the Hanlin Academy would produce a beast like Yao Lian. It's unpredictable.

"Instead of being frightened here, it's better to think about how to deal with Yao Lian, this person is a person who admits death, and Yasukuni Gong is another kind of difficult to deal with. If you don't deal with it well, you will inevitably fall into the same fate as the prefect of Anyang. He Wenchang reminded.

Everyone was shocked at this time, but in a panic, where did the good idea come from, after a while, everyone still did not come up with a feasible solution.

Chen Wenjing sighed and said: "This Yao Lian has been staying in the Hanlin Academy, if it weren't for the Spring Exam, everyone here would know him?" If you don't understand, it's useless for us to guess here for half a day. ”

"I can only wait for the other party to come, and I am planning. And the Xue family also has to ask the meaning. Someone said.

So far, this small meeting ended without a problem because of Yao Lian, He Wenchang looked at everyone, slightly disdainful in his heart, a group of rabble, only begging the Xue family to be in front of him, do you really think that the Xue family is stupid?

Asking for a garden, the name is not good, but Lin Yuan is too lazy to make a plaque, so he doesn't pay so much attention to it.

In the flower pavilion, he sprinkled the fish food in his hand into the water, clapped his hands, and looked at the koi fish competing for fish food in the water, Lin Yuanyuan asked without replying: "Where is Yao Lian?" ”

"Back to the young master, I'm in Anyang." Fish Food replied.

Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered something, turned around and asked, "Have you closed the net there?" ”

Seeing Yu Shi nodded, Lin Yuan stopped talking after a sigh, the matter of Anyang was investigated by the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division, and Yao Lian, who handed over the relevant information, was to make a big fuss and attract all the attention of Yuzhou officialdom, which was a plan that had been set before.

After a while, Lin Yuan opened his mouth and asked, "How many people have been arrested?" ”

"Hui Yu Young Master, there are a total of twenty-three people, the main culprits Liu Ke, Anyang Xuezheng Lu Security Tribal Network."

"I can't see it, this Yao Lian is really willing to start, there are only a few officials in Anyang, and this net goes down, but more than half of it." Lin Yuan smacked his mouth and said.

"Two-thirds of the way I went, there was news from the Zhenfu Division, saying that Lord Yao took the opportunity to clean up some of the officials in the Fish Township who were not involved."

"He'll find trouble for himself." Lin Yuan chuckled.

Yu Shi thought for a while and said, "Grandpa, there is news from Chen Wenjing's secret pretense, many officials in Nanyang went to Chen's mansion for a small gathering early this morning. ”

Lin Yuan frowned and asked, "Who sent the news?" ”

Yu Shi saw that Lin Yuan's face was not very good-looking, and after thinking about it, he said: "A team from Nanyang Mansion is handing over the news. ”

"Order, this matter is not an example, without the emperor's decree, you can't investigate the officials in the future."

Yu Shi was a little puzzled, but he still nodded to show that he was clear. Lin Yuan has always insisted on building the Zhenfu Division into a purely external organization, and internal monitoring is what will be done later, in his opinion, doing so now will completely tie the focus of the Zhenfu Division to the inside, which is not Lin Yuan's original intention.

The signs have already appeared, and Lin Yuan has to find a way to cut it off. After thinking for a moment, Lin Yuan said, "I have time to bring this person over for me to meet." ”

"Yes, young master." He bowed down to the world.

Coming out of the garden, Lin Yuan looked at the sky, his heart suddenly moved, he turned his head to look at Yu Shi and asked, "Has Li Qingqian left Beijing?" ”

Yu Shi was stunned for a moment, he didn't know why Lin Yuan was thinking so out-of-the-box, he was still thinking about national affairs just now, and he thought of women in a blink of an eye.

After counting the days, Yu Shi said: "Miss Li said that after the beginning of spring, the days are these days, and she should be out of Beijing." ”

"Pick a few good skills from the Zhenfu Division to follow, don't have accidents." Lin Yuan commanded. I'm busy here, and I really can't take care of Li Qingqian's side. It's better to have someone around you, and you can rest assured.
