Chapter 982: Tears in Arms

Although Ding Guangyou didn't say anything to accuse Zeng Xingwu of in the end, but among the words he said, even if they were incomplete, they still made people hear some things, those things are not uncommon in this era, no, it should be said that everything is not uncommon, so even if they just heard that Ding Guangyou only mentioned a few names and general things, a few people on the side could still think about what happened.

It's just that even if they thought of what might happen, they really didn't blindly blame Zeng Xingwu now, or sympathize with Ding Guangyou, after all, after being in the officialdom for so long, whether it is Wang Xilie and Yu Rongjin as civil officials, or Liu Xianquan as a military general, they all understand that when things don't come to a conclusion, don't jump to conclusions, otherwise, it is very likely that something will be irreparable because of some small misunderstandings.

However, even so, now that Ding Guangyou's words came out, everyone looked at Zeng Xingwu's eyes, and there was already a change.

And in this regard, Zeng Xingwu was very angry, but on the contrary, there was no problem with the things Ding Guangyou said, although when he was talking, the way his eyes and tears were rendered, made what he said more credible, which can be regarded as an additional situation, but at this moment, Zeng Xingwu couldn't open his mouth at all, because no matter how emotional Ding Guangyou said, but the very important point is that what he said is the truth.

Since what he said is the truth, and even if it is because Zeng Xingwu thinks very highly of himself and looks down on Ding Guangyou, no, it should be said that it is precisely because Zeng Xingwu thinks very highly of himself and looks down on Ding Guangyou, so he is unwilling to lie to deal with Ding Guangyou, and even if he puts aside this level of relationship, with Zeng Xingwu's personality, although he has a lot of bad temper, he is not the kind of person who will make things up in order to avoid responsibility.

In short, that is to say, now that Ding Guangyou said such a thing, and Zeng Xingwu did not refute it, he obviously admitted that what Ding Guangyou said was correct.

"Lord Zeng, what he said is ......" And Zhang Fan, once again appropriately, showed a surprised look on his face, looked at Zeng Shengwu, and said in a tone of disbelief, "Could it be that what he said is true,"

"That's right," and this time, although Zeng Xingwu still looked red, but he didn't have the slightest intention of evading, he faced Zhang Fan and said, "Master Zhang, what Ding Guangyou said is not wrong at all, I just look down on him, although he is not bad, but he has been an official for so many years, but he has made no achievements, there is such a person in the court, who was born as a jinshi, and he is only a six-grade person for so many years, even if this kind of person can't do anything wrong, but let him go up but he can't do anything big, It's hard to be successful, ten years of cold windows, full of enthusiasm, but he can't do it like him,"

Zeng Xingwu's words made everyone present stunned, but Ding Guangyou, who was still kneeling there, turned red, no one would have thought that in the face of this situation, Zeng Xingwu would say such a thing, but the reason why Ding Guangyou blushed is also very simple, he understands that even if Zeng Xingwu still said such a thing in this situation, it is tantamount to a quibble, but he also understands that Zeng Xingwu's words are not unreasonable.

Yes, Zeng Xingwu may think very highly of himself and look down on people, but he even looks down on people, there is a reason, and it is also a reason that can be said and makes people feel reasonable, a person, as an official of the court, although he has never had a bad heart, let alone done anything bad, but he has no achievements, this kind of person, in other words, anyone will feel that it is a waste to let him stay in the court, especially for people with ambitions like Zeng Xingwu, even more so.

Therefore, it is no wonder that Ding Guangyou will be treated like this in front of Zeng Xingwu, the key problem is that Zeng Xingwu has never regarded him as an official or a colleague at all, and even, in Zeng Xingwu's eyes, Ding Guangyou can't even compare with a different ordinary people.

And the reason for this situation is not because of Zeng Xingwu, in the final analysis, this is all the trouble that Ding Guangyou found out by himself, or it should be said, Ding Guangyou did nothing wrong, but his character is inherently incompatible with the environment he is in, which caused his current tragedy, this kind of thing, in fact, no one is responsible, if you have to blame anyone, you can only blame God for making people, putting two people who are so incompatible with each other in the same place as officials, And the person who has a disgust for one of them is still his superior.

This kind of thing is indeed embarrassing.

But now, Zhang Fan doesn't need to think about this, his purpose today is not to help Ding Guangyou get justice, nor to embarrass Zeng Xingwu from stepping down, neither of these are either.

So, now......

"This kind of thing ......" Zhang Fan looked like he didn't know what to say, this was not what he pretended, but what he really thought in his heart now, after all, the situation in front of him was really something he hadn't thought of before, "It's useless for us to talk about these things now, but since the words have already been said to this point, I can't treat this matter as if I haven't heard of it, a few adults, and Lord Zeng, I'm sorry, I want to hear what happened to this Ding Guangyou,"

In the face of Zhang Fan's words, several people present did not raise their voices against it, even Zeng Xingwu, although he looked like he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

That's the case, although Zhang Fan, as a messenger, to manage the affairs between these local officials, is obviously a bit out of bounds, but that is also in the case of his initiative, if he takes the initiative to find trouble with these locals for no reason, then it is his problem, and someone with a heart will definitely come to investigate him, but if it is replaced by the situation in front of him, something is already happening in front of his eyes, then Zhang Fan naturally has the right to ask, and even, if there is something happening in front of him, But Zhang Fan turned a deaf ear, then he would be in trouble later.

Therefore, at this time, Zhang Fan has made it clear that he will ask about this matter, and in this way, the people next to him, even Zeng Xingwu, who least wants this to happen, can't say anything.

"Ding Guangyou, now I don't care what happened before, or what kind of grievances you have with Master Zeng," Zhang Fan turned his head and said to Ding Guangyou, "But since you said that just now, there must be a lot of grievances in it, and now, there are so many adults here, I will also call the shots for you, you can talk about it now, what happened, don't worry about it and speak out boldly,"

"That's the way it is......" At the moment, Ding Guangyou was also unambiguous, and directly began to tell his own affairs.

I don't know if it's because he discussed it with Zhang Fan before, so he went home last night and practiced for a long time; Or is it really because of what he has experienced, it is really unforgettable for him, and it has planted a deep sting in his heart, in short, when Ding Guangyou recounted his experience, even if he couldn't cry, he was definitely choked, and besides, his things did make people feel terrible when they listened.

A few people present may have heard similar things a long time ago, but those are just what they heard from others, plus these people present are all dignified men, whether they are civil officials or military generals, they will naturally have a trace of pride in their hearts, so for them, when they heard this kind of thing in the past, they would sigh at most, and they would not say anything else.

However, the current situation is different, although it seems that nothing has changed, they are still listening to a person narrating this kind of thing, not seeing it with their own eyes, but the person who narrates this matter in front of them is the bitter master of the matter, and a big man, when talking about this kind of thing, is actually such a crying and crying appearance, even if it is because this Ding Guangyou is not a tough person, but he can make a man, a court official, cry and talk about this kind of thing, It can be seen that this incident has indeed made him extremely sad.

"The thing...... That's what happened," Ding Guangyou finally said, "Since the news of my wife's brother died on the battlefield, my wife was originally exhausted because he was in prison, and now when she heard the bad news, she couldn't afford to be sick on the spot, and then ...... After that, it was just over a month before she passed away, how do I deal with this kind of thing.

"I don't blame this battle, after all, the court can conquest the servants, which is naturally a great thing, I am also from the southwest, naturally I have heard of the servants' behavior, I can get rid of this trouble, say sorry for the deceased wife, even if it is to take the life of my wife and brother, I think it is worth it, so this matter, although I have complained to General Liu in my heart, but I don't think it is his fault.

"However, my wife shouldn't, she has nothing to do with this matter, she is just a woman's family, but why...... Why did she have to ...... because of this? And ......"

Speaking of this, Ding Guangyou couldn't speak anymore, and the people listening to his narration next to him, even Zeng Xingwu were silent.

Yes, if you can win a big victory against the servants, it is indeed worth killing a few people, but Ding Guangyou's brother-in-law did not go voluntarily, even if he was pulled as cannon fodder as a prisoner, but whether he should pay such a heavy price for his identity as a prisoner is really doubtful.

And now, it is necessary to take the life of Ding Guangyou's wife, this kind of thing is simply unacceptable.
