In the afternoon, not long after Wang Yuan returned to the pavilion, Yang Shenjin, who couldn't bear it anymore, finally sent someone to find Wang Yuan to go to the county government to talk. When Wang Yuan arrived, Yang Shenjin was summoning Beihai Sicang in the lobby for questioning, and when Wang Yuan arrived, Yang Shenjin immediately terminated the conversation, and Beihai Sicang put a gloomy stinky face out.
Wang Yuan smiled and looked at Yang Shenjin and said, "Yang Shangshu is working hard, how is the inquiry going?" ”
Yang Shenjin sneered: "Yang is not as free as your deputy envoy Wang, deputy envoy Wang, the file you asked about has already been seen, I have to say, Deputy Envoy Wang, you have the trust of His Majesty and the imperial court, is this how you came to investigate the case?" ”
Wang Yuan smiled: "What's wrong with me? I've asked all the officials assigned to me, but what's wrong? ”
Yang Shenjin shouted: "Are you also called questioning?" There are only 28 people here, and I only asked less than half of them in the morning. It's good for you, fifty or sixty people will end in an hour, is this also called serious case handling? ”
Wang Yuan smiled: "This is strange, everyone has their own way, Yang Shangshu likes to ask questions slowly and logically, and he likes to be concise and to the point, is there anything wrong with this?" Since Yang Shangshu thinks that my question is not detailed, I don't mind if you call these people for questioning again. ”
Yang Shenjin said coldly: "Wang Yuan, I warn you, you are the deputy envoy, so you belong to me." What I say, you need to do. In the past few days, you have been too out of line, and I am thinking of writing a rush to return to Beijing, counting your negative handling of cases, and my unruly behavior, and asking the imperial court to remove you from the post of deputy envoy for case investigation. Don't force me to do that. ”
The smile on Wang Yuan's face slowly faded, and he stared at Yang Shenjin and said: "All the people involved in the case are asked by you, and dozens of people who are not pardoned in the case are used by you to waste my time, and you also turn around and say that I have a negative attitude." You'd better add a clause to the fold that excludes me from handling the case, if you don't want to add it, I'm willing to write a fold and report it to the capital. ”
Yang Shenjin pointed at Wang Yuan's nose and shouted angrily: "You! Bloody mouth. ”
Wang Yuan said with a smile: "No one in the world is stupid, after reading the list of people you and I asked, Your Majesty, a courtier, naturally knows whether I am spewing blood." Yang Shangshu, I don't mind if you take charge of the case alone, you don't want me to get involved too much, and I don't mind. But I hope you don't come to me for trouble. If you want me to help you, don't exclude me, and if you don't want me to get in the way, don't point fingers at me, okay? ”
Yang Shen's face was pale, and the pockmarks on his face trembled, but he finally understood that Wang Yuan actually knew everything in his heart, and this kid was not stupid. Among the two choices given by Wang Yuan, Yang Shenjin of course chose to let Wang Yuan stay out of the matter, since Wang Yuan made his words clear, why not push the boat down the river and let him go, why bother to find trouble for him. I'm giving him a good look when I'm done.
Thinking of this, Yang Shenjin's face softened, and he said coldly to Wang Yuan: "Since you said so, I am not good at making it difficult for others." If you don't want to do it, I won't force you, and I will handle this case properly. From now on, you can do whatever you like, just don't meddle in the case, I will take care of the case. ”
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Yang Shangshu, you have to make it clear, it's not that you are unwilling to do errands, and you are willing to contribute to the case at any time." I don't participate because you, Yang Shangshu, don't want me to participate. There are so many brothers here, everyone is a witness to me. I have nothing to do but go to the pavilion and get some sleep. ”
Yang Shenjin sneered: "It's up to you to go, I just don't worry about you handling the case, so what?" If nothing else, the king's deputy envoy can go to sleep. ”
Wang Yuan laughed and said: "This is like a word, you don't want me to participate in the case, just say it, I'm not an unreasonable person, why hide it." I followed your order to go to sleep, and when I look back, Yang Shangshu don't sue me for my black state, saying that I am slacking off on official duties. ”
Yang Shenjin snorted coldly, turned his head and no longer paid attention to Wang Yuan, Wang Yuan smiled and bowed his hand to the surrounding subordinate officials, exited the lobby and went out to get on the horse and go back. Wang Yuan is not worried about losing control of Li Yong's case, because he still needs his own signature to confirm the case on the final case file. In fact, Wang Yuan was happy to see today's events happen, so that he would not have to be called by Yang Shenjin to concentrate all his energy on what he was about to do.
It cannot be said that Wang Yuan has no interest in Li Yong's case, from a personal point of view, Wang Yuan is unwilling to see Li Yong or Li Shizhi unlucky because of this case. But this is out of some sympathy for the literati that still exists in my heart, or out of disgust for Li Linfu's side. But in fact, whether it is Li Yong or Li Shizhi, Wang Yuan has no special feelings for them. Originally, if Li Shizhi hadn't used himself to care about his own life or death, Wang Yuan would regard him as a benefactor, and he would help him no matter what this time. And now, Wang Yuan has long been disappointed in Li Shizhi, this person is a narrow-minded and somewhat dark person, and his good impression of him has long been gone.
Moreover, from the perspective of the overall situation, Wang Yuan's visit to Beihai this time should actually promote the brewing and expansion of Li Yong's case, and the purpose is to burn the fire on Li Shizhi. Because he persuaded Yang Zhao to recommend himself as the envoy of this investigation, this is the reason. Li Shizhi fell, and Yang Zhao could replace him, which is why Yang Zhao is willing to recommend himself. If he instead went to help Li Yong and Li Shizhi, it would greatly damage Yang Zhao's interests, and it would also be regarded as a betrayal by Yang Zhao, which would never happen.
Wang Yuan can't joke about Yang Zhao's interests, because at present, the Yang family is his most important backer, and although doing so satisfies his ridiculous inner sympathy, it is obviously irrational and incorrect behavior, and it is an act that harms others and himself. The only thing Wang Yuan can do is that he may only be able to frame Li Shizhi without adding fuel to the fire, although he promised Yang Zhao to do this. But Wang Yuan knows very well in his heart that there is no need to do this kind of thing by himself, Yang Shenjin will do it better than himself, why should he do such a bottomless thing, it is wisest to keep an attitude away from this case.
……
Back in the pavilion, Wang Yuan didn't go out, and really went to bed and fell asleep according to Yang Shenjin's request, and after several hours, he was gently pushed to wake up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Gongsun Lan standing at the head of the bed and frowning at himself.
Wang Yuan saw the lights in the room, scratched his head and said, "What time is it?" ”
Gongsun Lan said: "It's the first shift, haven't you gotten up yet?" ”
Wang Yuan got up and got dressed, and asked while washing, "Where have you been in the afternoon?" I thought you'd come back and sleep with you. ”
Gongsun Lan took a sip. Wang Yuan waved his hand and said: "I didn't mean that, I mean, we have to act tonight, and we will be more energetic at night after taking a nap in the afternoon." ”
Gongsun Lan said: "You still don't admit that you are a rookie in the rivers and lakes, don't you make some preparations and probe before doing things?" ”
Wang Yuan combed his hair and said, "It turns out that you went to step on it." ”
Gongsun Lan said: "Do a good job of inquiring in advance, so that things can go smoothly and you won't be at a loss when you encounter unexpected things." This is the most basic thing a nocturnal walker does. ”
Wang Yuan said softly: "You have done so many cases in the capital, and the Fangqiang High Court has come and gone freely, and you are still worried that something will happen in this Beihai County by surprise?" ”
Gongsun Lan sneered: "That's me alone, I'm here for you, because if you follow me, it's a burden." ”
Wang Yuan rolled his eyes and said: "Even if that's the case, you don't need to say it so directly, doesn't this hurt people's self-esteem?" ”
Gongsun Lan ignored him, reached out and tossed on the bed for a while, stuffed the pillow into the thin quilt that was bulging like a human figure, added some oil to the oil lamp, cut the lamp smaller, and made the oil lamp even darker.
Wang Yuan said in a low voice: "This is to prevent someone from watching me at night when I'm not in the house, right?" ”
Gongsun Lan said: "You're not stupid. Pack up your day, order your men not to disturb you, and then we should go out. ”
Wang Yuan nodded, hurriedly tied his hair in a bun, Gongsun Lan finally couldn't help but see his clumsy appearance, untied Wang Yuan's unkempt hair, and quickly helped Wang Yuan tie his hair in a bun. Wang Yuan sniffed the faint fragrance coming from behind him, listened to Gongsun Lan's slight breathing in his ears, and sighed softly: "I hope time stands still at this moment, then it will be fine." ”
Gongsun Lan was slightly stunned, and after a while, she pulled Wang Yuan's hair fiercely, and Wang Yuan bared his teeth and cried out in pain.
Tie the hair bun, Wang Yuan summoned Wang Dahei to come through the door, and asked Wang Dahei to pass the word, he was not allowed to go out tonight, he stayed in the house to sleep, and he was not allowed to disturb his rest. Wang Dahei asked Wang Yuan if he wanted to have dinner, Wang Yuan scolded him for having no appetite, Wang Dahei stopped being verbose, and went to talk to Zhang Wulang and them.
The two of them put on their night clothes, covered them with long robes, each took a sword and put it on his back, bolted the door and opened the north window, but they saw that the snow outside the window was bright, and the moon was bright in the sky, and the surrounding area was like frost and snow.
Wang Yuan was about to say that it seemed that it was not appropriate to act tonight, but before the words came out, there was a sound around him, and with a whoosh, Gongsun Lan was already on the low wall behind the house. Wang Yuan no longer hesitated, jumped out, followed Gongsun Lan over the low wall, and disappeared into the white moonlight.
