Chapter 989: Direct Intervention

"Lord Zeng. Have you heard? "A man came to Zeng Shengwu's house in a panic. I reported the name. After the porter let him enter the gate of Zeng's mansion. He just went straight inside. While walking. The mouth is still talking. "Lord Zeng. That Zhang Fan. It's too deceitful. It's not all already said. Now it's a reversal......" The words are not finished. The sound had stopped abruptly.

This person. Not a big deal. It's just a small official in this Chengdu Mansion. said that he was an official of the imperial court. He's not qualified enough. He was lifted up a little. If he is just a man who eats imperial food. That's not exhaustive. Or maybe it's a little too demeaning for him. How to say it. can only be said to be an ordinary person.

If it had been changed at any time before. Like such a character. Not to mention the gate of the governor's house of a province. Even the prefect's family did not dare to trespass. But today. Such a person. It's actually direct. No. It's like breaking into Zeng Shengwu's house. This. It's really weird. But it's not just that he doesn't have any regrets. Even Zeng Xingwu didn't say anything.

As for the reason why he stopped talking about it in the middle of the conversation. And it's not because of anything else. It's because of that. When he walked into the hall of the Zeng Mansion. Seeing this, Zeng Xingwu is not alone. There are a dozen or so other people. These people are all officials in Chengdu. Ultimately. These people don't look up or down almost every day. It's all very familiar. Now this person who has just come in and seen so many people here. This face. Naturally, it made him stop talking.

"Xiao Lu." Zeng Xingwu looked at the person. Said. "You're here too. You first...... Never mind. There aren't so many chairs here. You're going to just stand there. I know what you're going to say. A few of you are here now. It's all about it. ”

Zeng Shengwu's words. Let the people present. Whether it's first or last. I don't even speak. Not bad. They are here today. And so many people. It's not all agreed upon. It's because something happened. Let all these people come to this place at the same time.

And I was saved. I also knew about it from the mouths of the first few people who came before. So now even if someone else comes. Acting so panicked again. He wasn't surprised.

"Adults know." And aside. Someone reminded the newcomer.

"Ugh." Zeng Xingwu heard this word I don't know how many times I have heard it today. He could only sigh again, and he didn't know how many times he had breathed today.

And Zeng Shengwu sighed. But it made everyone present frown. Many people even showed an angry look.

"Your Excellency. Although several other colleagues have already said it before. But Xia Guan still has to say one more thing. This Zhang Fan. It's really too deceitful. "This new guy. Seeing that everyone already knew how things were. But he still said that.

And as soon as he said this, he said. The people next to him all showed a very approving look. And in the face of such a look of these people. Zeng Xingwu didn't say anything. He just shook his head slightly. The same. Such a sentence. Since the second man came to his house. Almost everyone has to say it again. But just to say these words. What's the use?

"Your Excellency. You have something to say. The people on the side just shook their heads and smiled bitterly when they saw Zeng Xingwu. but he did not speak. I couldn't help but say. "This thing. This Zhang Fan is so inauthentic. It's hard for us to do this, and we don't ask. Let him be so arrogant. If that's the case. I'm afraid adults will ...... then."

"What nonsense." I didn't wait for the man to finish speaking. Someone on the side interrupted him. "How do you behave on a normal day? Don't you know yet? If it is an official like an adult, it must be ...... All have to ...... That seems. The court was really blind. "This one is obviously angry now, too. He actually said such a thing. But it doesn't matter anymore. After all, almost everyone present had the same idea. But he didn't care what he said.

"That's a good thing to say. Adults are naturally good. Someone spoke again. Said. "But. Let's not say that we don't take this Zhang Fan in our eyes. But he is the imperial court after all. It was the minister sent by Empress Dowager Li by name. Not to mention his identity. That's Jinyiwei. ”

"What if he's a brocade guard." Right away. Someone spoke against it. "Jin Yiwei can tell right and wrong. Reversing black and white is not possible. "Only. This man was saying this. The tone of the words is not too sufficient. Apparently there was some concern. Seemingly. The three words "Jinyiwei". In the minds of the officials of the Ming Dynasty. It's too heavy. So. Even if you want to show that you don't care at the moment. But actually the person who said it. How could I not worry at all? But. Now these words must be spoken. Otherwise, it would be a bit inappropriate to stand here.

"But it's not that simple today." Someone else immediately said. "Although Lord Zeng is here. But this matter still has to be said. Fear. This shouldn't be a matter of juggling. ”

This sentence almost pointed at Zeng Xingwu's nose and said that he had indeed done something wrong. If this had been put before. No matter what they are facing, Zeng Xingwu, a person with a higher rank than them. Or maybe it's like them. Even people who are lower than their official position. I wouldn't have said it so bluntly. But now. It's no longer time to care about those things. How to say it. It can only be said. Things have come to this point. But no one thought of it.

"This Ding Guangyou is too." Someone else spoke. "This thing. How can that be done? ”

"Alas. This thing. But it's no wonder Ding Guangyou. "This time. Zeng Xingwu spoke. "It's just as I said before. Truly...... Indeed, I am ashamed of him. Now. Do so. I also have nothing to say. ”

"We understand what Lord Zeng means." The man said immediately. "But. This Zhang Fan. Those words that were said yesterday. We're not here though. But I also listened to what General Liu said. And now he does. Isn't that a reversal? ”

"But ......" Zeng Xingwu also had an expression that he didn't know how to describe. Said. "Although that's the way it is said. But he did. But he didn't do anything wrong. ”

Speaking of which. Why the hell. Today, so many people will come to Zeng Xingwu's home. And all of them looked indignant.

The reason for the matter. Still this morning.

Yesterday. Zhang Fan said. took Ding Guangyou's form. Find out what happened to his brother-in-law. It's really deserved. He deserves to be in prison. After that, he was sent to the battlefield and died. Or is there any great grievance in this? The truth needs to be ascertained.

And yesterday. Zhang Fan took Ding Guangyou's case. And said a few words. That's what he'll look into. But he won't immediately send his own Jinyi guards to investigate. Instead, he first asked the local yamen to send out a catcher to investigate. If these yamen can't find out anything. Then his Jinyi guard went out to investigate. In this way. A double investigation was done. Even all of these people present know it. The yamen couldn't find out anything at all. But doing so shows Zhang Fan's respect for the local officialdom.

And this is already a good thing to say. But it's been less than a day. It's already changed. This morning. And the people got the news. The person with a brocade guard took the waist card to the Chengdu Mansion. I want to take away all the files on the case of Ding Guangyou's wife and brother. And the investigation began.

As soon as the news broke. Many people were immediately surprised. After all, Zhang Fan said it all. Let the yamen check first. Then. That's what a lot of people think. This is a lazy and accustomed yamen. Now why did you suddenly become diligent? It's been less than half a day. An unverifiable reason has been derived. And let Jinyiwei intervene.

Although this is the opposite. They are all satirizing the disadvantage of the people in the local yamen. But at the time. Because the news came too suddenly. also made everyone unable to turn around for a while. I thought the yamen had really checked it.

But. These people aren't stupid either. Then they figured out why. It's obvious. This is not a yamen at all, and the work has suddenly become diligent. It's that Jinyiwei didn't wait for the yamen to investigate at all. went directly to someone to take over the case.

Later. Those who have good deeds go and inquire. That's what you know. It's not that Jinyi Wei didn't wait for the yamen to verify. It's that Zhang Fan's side didn't inform the yamen of this matter at all.

The prefect of Chengdu Prefecture. I also received this news yesterday. So I've been waiting for Zhang Fan to send someone to pass on to him. Outcome. Wait until the next day. Jinyiwei is here. But he directly asked him for the file with the waist card.

As soon as the news came out. To everyone's surprise. And after the surprise. And he became angry. It seems to these people. Zhang Fan did so. It's not just as simple as using the power of Jinyiwei to do things. If only it were a little. No problems. It's not been a day or two since Jin Yiwei did this kind of thing. Everybody can stand it.

It's because. Zhang Fan did so. It's the same as despising them. Even all the people in the officialdom in the whole of Sichuan. They weren't taken into account at all.

So. All of these people gathered in the house of Zeng Xingwu. One is to talk about this matter. Second, to say that Zhang Fan's is not. But. It seems like they do. In addition to bringing more troubles to Zeng Xingwu. It doesn't solve any problem at all.
