99429 Chapter 292 The Battle for Rewards

Deng Ru is the middle inheritance of the imperial history, that is, the official of each section of the six departments of the court! First, stacking chapters, the responsibility of picketing hundreds of bureaucrats. The old man is over sixty years old, and he is also a respected minister in the court, how could he have ever been insulted by a hairy boy pointing at his nose?

After hearing Fang Zheng's words, Zheng Ru was so angry that his beard turned up, his old face suddenly turned red, he turned around and glared at Fang Zheng fiercely, and said angrily: "You have no loss in virtue? Lord Fang, if people don't know, unless they don't do it, Sun Yi, the head of the household department, do you remember this person? ”

Fang Zheng blinked: "I don't remember, what is he doing?" Do you owe me money? ”

Zheng Ru sneered: "As a second-class member of the imperial court, you actually robbed the household department official with your accomplices in the middle of the night, and you robbed him of tens of thousands of taels of silver that night, and" Hmph! And also invited a painter, forced him to strip naked, and painted him naked, Lord Fang, you won't forget this matter so quickly, right? .

"Wow!" The Manchu Dynasty is boiling. All the ministers in the hall, including the fat man sitting on the dragon chair, all stared at Fang Zheng with disbelief. The shock in their hearts is like a stormy wave impacting their psychological bottom line.

The second-grade minister robbed his colleagues in the DPRK and China late at night, and forced him to strip naked and paint nude portraits, which is the first scandal in the court since the founding of the Chinese Dynasty for more than 100 years, right?

This Lord Fang, "The courage is really boundless.

The fat man leaned softly on the back of the dragon chair, rubbed the sun vigorously, and muttered to himself: "Is this guy poor and crazy?" It's okay to rob, and you force people to draw nude portraits, are you such a bully? ”

Fang Zheng was also shocked in his heart. He did a very secret job of robbing Sun Yi, how could Zheng Ru know? Sun Yi, that guy is really out of the way? Isn't he afraid that I will make his nude image public?

seemed to see Fang Zheng's doubts; Zheng Ru sneered: "Lord Fang, before doing something bad next time, first inquire about the family history of the bitter master, Sun Yi is the son-in-law of the old man, what can he hide from the old man?" Lord Fang, don't you want to admit this? ”

Everyone in the court looked at Fang Zheng curiously and in astonishment, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts, even if there was no evidence for this matter, everyone also decided that he did it, in this one-acre and three-point land in the capital, there was really nothing he Fang Zheng didn't dare to do, this guy has become a big public hazard in the capital.

Fang Zheng's eyes rolled, then he straightened his chest, and said awe-inspiringly: "A good man is a good man, yes, your son-in-law Sun Yi was robbed." I did it, what's the matter? ”

Zheng Ru raised his thick eyebrows, turned to the fat man and said: "Your Majesty, Fang has admitted that this matter was done by him, please ask the emperor to severely punish Fang Zheng to correct the atmosphere of my court."

"Hey, slow down, Lord Zheng, don't be in a hurry to put me to death" Fang Zheng intercepted Zheng Ru's words with a smile, and said with a smile: "In front of the emperor and the Manchu Dynasty, some things have to be explained clearly, otherwise everyone will be confused, and it will not be good to confuse the public." ”

"Hmph, you admitted it yourself, isn't it clear about this matter?"

"There is another place that is very unclear," Fang Zheng looked at Zheng Ru and said with a wicked smile: "Your son-in-law Sun Yi is just the head of the chemical household department, and the monthly salary is only dozens of taels of silver, dare to ask this old man." Why did he have tens of thousands of taels of silver on him for me to rob? The origin of this silver is very suspicious, could it be that before I robbed him, he did a vote somewhere else? In this case, I'm only black and black at best."

"You," Zheng Ru opened his mouth wide. For a while, he was on the spot, and he couldn't say a word.

Today's impeachment of Fang Zheng was originally his temporary initiative, but he forgot that such a big loophole was broken by Fang Zheng so little. He suddenly felt that he had made a big mistake, and he actually took the initiative to send his handle to him, which was really a stupid trick.

With Fang Zheng's not too noble character, of course, at this time, it is advisable to chase after the poor and take the opportunity to beat the water dog: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Master Zheng and Sun Yi, the head of the household, are very suspicious.

"Shameless!" When the ministers heard this, they scolded in unison.

The fat man glanced at Zheng Ru's increasingly pale face, tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the dragon chair a few times, and said lightly: "Fang Aiqing." Don't digress, what we're talking about now is about your official knighthood, and there is no need to say anything off-topic. ”

Zheng Ru was a little relieved when he heard this, and glanced at the emperor without a trace, his eyes were full of gratitude. If the events of today cause him to lose his old age, he will have the heart to die.

As soon as the ministers heard the emperor's words, their hearts were like mirrors, today is the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, the emperor has just ascended the throne, and he definitely does not want anything discordant to appear in the court, lest everyone in the world think that the new emperor is mean and unkind, and he is anxious to deal with the old ministers, which will have a negative impact on his reputation.

Fang Zheng also understands this truth. So he no longer dwelled on this matter, and when he heard this, he straightened his chest and said: "Although Weichen is not very old, his moral character is barely noble, and he is also modest and cautious. ”

"Shameless!" The ministers once again scolded in unison in their hearts. Is this guy still shameless? Do you boast so much about yourself? Isn't that the other way around?

The fat man looked happy: "Oh? So, did you agree to take up the post of secretary of the ministry?

"Huh?" Fang Zheng shook his head quickly: "Who said I agreed?" No, no, no, Weichen wants to sue the old man to resign. ”

The Manchu Dynasty wiped the sweat of the civil and military:.

The fat man's face darkened with anger and glared at Fang Zheng fiercely.

The enthronement ceremony continued. It's just that because of the small episode just now, the subsequent program ended hastily.

Before retreating into the harem, the fat man ordered Fang Zheng to meet in the imperial study, and the ministers looked at this young courtier who was favored by both the previous emperor and the new emperor. Many people frowned deeply, will this person become the second Pan Shangshu in the court?

Inside the Imperial Study.

The fat man smiled and handed Fang Zheng a piece of snack, "Taste the master." Crying is the core crisp of Jiangnan Gonggong, and the capital can not eat the authentic taste of Liuqin

Fang Zheng took it unceremoniously, took a big bite, and praised: "Not bad, it's really comfortable to be an emperor, you can eat whatever you want."

The fat man smiled: "It's actually comfortable to be a secretary of the ministry, all the officials in the world have to look at your face, and you can walk sideways in the capital in the future, no one dares to care about you, how good"

Fang Zheng took a look and put the dim sum on the table. sighed: "Hong Que knows the ambition of the bird

The fat man wiped his sweat: "That's the opposite, right?" ”

Fang Zheng shook his head: "I didn't say the opposite." You are a bird, I am a bird, a birdfinch with no ambitions, I just want to accompany my wife and family every day, by the way, I take the money earned by the family to eat, drink and have fun outside, play birds, walk dogs and fight crickets, drink tea in the teahouse, drink wine in the tavern, knock melon seeds and listen to the story, if Yin of the capital government is willing to turn a blind eye, I also want to occasionally flirt with the women of the good family on the street to entertain myself and others,"

The fat man's eyes straightened: "Your ambition" is really ambitious. ”

"Fatty, you know that. People like me are not naturally suitable to be officials, I am timid, and I have no principles in doing things. Only profit is for the sake of profit, everything is good or evil, just look at whether it is good for yourself, an official like me is actually more harmful than good to the entire court, if I become a minister, the court will definitely be made by me to make a black smoke."

looked at the fat man, and the fat man smiled silently.

Fatty, the court is yours. The world is also yours, I don't want to spoil your new dynasty and new atmosphere because of me, your father before his death. He has repeatedly told me not to be the powerful minister who has been stinking for thousands of years, in fact, he is too worried, I don't have the ability to be a powerful minister, in my heart, I would rather be the ** thief who makes thousands of girls and young women scold

The weather was a little hot, and the fat man was sweating slightly.

Besides, I was very bold, I thought that being an official could be exchanged for a lifetime of peace, but I didn't expect to be born and die several times, and almost died several times. Your sister Shi'er, as well as several of my other wives, including my father and mother, are worried all day long, worried about my safety, thinking about the two years I have been an official, I have not made them feel much glory. On the contrary, it makes them more worried, as a man, this is irresponsible to the family, so, fatty, you still let me resign, let me go back and continue to be my gentleman, I will come to the palace when I have time, drink with you, and discuss the experience of picking up girls, isn't it good? ”

There were still some things that Fang Zheng endured and didn't say. When he becomes the first powerful minister of the court, after a long time, the fat emperor's mental skills are becoming more and more mature, will he become ruthless? Can he still tolerate his former classmate? Distance produces beauty. Leaving is the only way to make this friendship last for a long time.

After saying that, the two of them fell silent in the imperial study.

After a long time, the fat man sighed: "Brother Fang, I understand what you just said, but I have just ascended the throne now, and I am facing up and down." The only person I trust is you, I only hope that you can help me, at least let me have a clue about the government, and if you resign again, I promise not to stop you

Fang Zheng thought for a while and said, "Okay, but there is no need to mention the position of the secretary of the ministry, I am not that material, I am still my capital garrison general, and by the way, I will be the part-time head of the secret service."

The fat man smiled in his eyes: "You really don't want to be the secretary of the ministry?" ”

Fang Zheng shook his head vigorously.

The fat man patted his thigh and said with a smile: "I knew you didn't want to, so let's do it, if you don't want to be a scholar, just help me go out of Beijing once and investigate the case." Small.

Fang Zheng sniffled and frowned: "How can I smell a smell of conspiracy?" Are you scheming on me? ”

The fat man said unhappily: "Nonsense! How could I count you? I will give you a fat job, and no one else can ask for it. ”

Fang Zheng stared at the fat man vigilantly: "What do you want me to do?" ”

The fat man's fat face was squeezed together, revealing a flattering smile: "Brother Fang, help me Jiangnan next time, Jiangnan is good, there is heaven above, there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below, smoke and rain, mist bridges, flowing water, in the middle of spring, it is the time when the flowers in Jiangnan are blooming, and its scenery is beautiful, teaching people to linger"

"Come on, I'm not interested in those vain things, just say, what do you want me to do in Jiangnan?" Fang Zheng unceremoniously interrupted the Jiangnan scenery that the fat man painted for him.

"Investigate a huge case of embezzling tax money from the national treasury." The fat man said honestly.

"I'm not interested, don't talk about it!" When it came to investigating the case, Fang Zheng didn't even think about it. Immediately refused.

Just kidding, investigating the case, what a dangerous thing, Lao Tzu is not Bao Qingtian, why do you have to let me go?

"Brother Fang, this case involves officials of the six prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, and even some important ministers of the court in Beijing, like a huge spider web, intricately intertwined and very complicated, and Chu Shangshu of the Criminal Department is powerless

"Then I won't go, Chu Shangshu can't do this because someone who is so good at investigating cases, how can I do it well? Don't go, don't go, it's okay, it's okay, Weichen went home to sleep and hurriedly stopped it.

Fang Zheng walked out without looking back; said in his mouth: "I can't hear it, I can't hear anything, Weichen is old, and he wants to go home to recuperate, you actually send me such a dangerous errand, when I am stupid,"

"Hey! You stop". Seeing that Fang Zheng was about to walk out of the door of the study, the fat man was anxious and shouted, "Don't you want to see the beauties in Jiangnan?" ”

Fang Zheng seemed to have been immobilized. Stand still.

Then he turned his head quickly. His eyes stared at the fat man, emitting two faint green lights.

"Gangnam Girl? What does it mean? Make it clear. Fang Zheng asked with a somewhat fanatical expression.

The fat man's face became darker and darker, wiping the sweat on his forehead, and said with difficulty: "Jiangnan has produced beautiful women since ancient times, its posture is graceful, its feelings are graceful, like the spring breeze blowing willows, with affection, such as the autumn moon fluorescence, curling Tingting, the slender hands, and the snow Hao's wrists are exposed."

Fang Zheng swallowed his saliva, his eyes becoming hotter and hotter.

The fat man looked at Fang Zheng, and suddenly smiled lustfully: "There is a poem that specifically describes the style of women in Jiangnan."

What poem is "what"? Fang Zheng was a little delirious.

"On the moonlit night of the twenty-four bridges, where can the jade teach," the fat man smiled: "Jiangnan women's must have a bit of a unique taste, if you don't taste it yourself, it's really a regret in life."

Oh Fang Zheng was like being hypnotized, letting out a ** moan, and his mind was completely confused.

Then, Fang Zheng straightened his clothes, straightened his chest, showed a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, and said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, the so-called "Lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers" Weichen is a loyal minister, if he can't share his worries for the emperor, what face does he have to stand on top of the court?" Dumping the treasury. Fill your pockets, with Wechen's jealousy and hatred, I really can't see these scumbags go unpunished, please rest assured that the emperor will hand over this case to Wechen! Wechen will leave Jiangnan in the next few days, and he will definitely bring those corrupt officials to justice."

The fat man was cold and nodded weakly. "Then please," alas. small

Suddenly, the fat man seemed to remember something: "Speaking of filling his pockets", I will send an official from the household department to your house in the afternoon, and charge the property of the prince's mansion into the treasury, so you can cooperate. ”

Fang Zheng's face fell, and Jun's face twitched a few times in distress.

Looking at Fang Zheng's distant back, the fat man's fat face couldn't help but start twitching.

He is a dignified emperor, and he actually wants to rely on beauty to induce his courtiers to run errands, making himself like a big teapot pimped in the green building, and the fat man's heart is full of grief and depression at the moment.

"Father is right, Fang Zheng is really a bastard."

Inside the Fang Mansion.

Officials of the Household Department and officials subordinate to the Household Department are coming and going, shuttling endlessly.

Boxes of gold, silver and jewelry emitting ten thousand golden lights were moved from the Fang family's treasury to the carriage at the door, Fang Zheng drooped his face and watched this group of people go in and out with hatred, every time they moved a box, Fang Zheng's heart was like being stabbed by a needle, and he kept gasping in pain.

It was very refreshing to promise the fat man, but when he saw the boxes of gold, silver and jewelry that should have belonged to him enter the treasury, he suddenly regretted it in his heart.

"Hey! You're still not human, are you? Even my eggs are taken, what's the matter? You want to raid my house? Fang Zheng finally couldn't help it, and quickly grabbed in front of the two officials, and snatched a small jade basket they were carrying, and there were more than a dozen shiny "eggs?"

"My lord, that's the pearl of the night, not an egg." The official corrected Fang Zheng's mistake with a bitter face.

"Fart! Obviously it's an egg, are you blind? Who dares to say that this is not an egg, Lao Tzu beat him to death! Fang Zheng's eyes were red, and his eyes were like two unsheathed knives, ripping around the officials.

"That's it! It's obviously an egg, how can it be a pearl of the night? The subordinates of the Fang Mansion also came forward one after another to help the young master speak.

"Did you hear that? The eyes of the masses are bright, hurry up and put it down for Lao Tzu, I still point to this pile of eggs to hatch chicks,"

The two officials glanced at each other, hesitated and put down the "egg" in their hands, and the hero did not suffer the loss in front of him, the name of this Lord Fang was like thunder, and this person could not be provoked.

Before the matter was over, Fang Zheng turned his head and shouted again: "Hey! Do you want to be shameless? You also move the potted plants that Lao Tzu has worked hard to plant for several years? Hurry up and put it down for Lao Tzu! ”

"Adult" This is not a bonsai. It's red coral in the East China Sea,"

"Fart! It's a potted plant, but you're blind? Have you ever seen such a plump, graceful red coral with a pear blossom pressing a begonia? ”

，”

，”

When Fang Zheng was stirring up trouble in the Ming Dynasty, a subordinate came to report that His Royal Highness the King of Thailand was visiting.

Fang Zheng glanced at the household officials and officials who were silent, and ordered his subordinates in a vicious voice: "Give me a good look!" Don't let them touch the eggs, goose eggs, and potted plants and other things, it's all from our house! ”

"Yes!" The subordinates answered in unison. Gearing up, staring at the household officials and sneering.

Household officials sweated like rain.

"Ahh Brother Fang, I haven't seen you for many days. How's it going? ”

The net stepped into the front hall, and the King of Thailand stepped forward with a happy face, and arched his hand enthusiastically.

Fang Zheng met the King of Thailand. His frosty face finally eased.

Speaking from the heart. Among the several princes of the first emperor, except for the fat man. The only thing he felt a little good about was the king of Thailand in front of him. Perhaps, only an indifferent person can behave so humbly and politely, that people can't help but have a heart-to-heart fellowship with him.

"His Royal Highness the King of Thailand, it's been a long time, it's been a long time, and the officials have lost their welcome"

"Hey, Brother Fang, you know that I don't like those false courtesies, so you don't have to do this in front of me, right?" The King of Thailand smiled very gently, and the corner of his eye glanced at the bustling crowd not far away, and said strangely: "Brother Fang, your mansion is", moving? ”

At the mention of this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh, and his tears were about to fall.

"Those guys in the household department are really not things!" Fang Zheng patted his thigh and poured bitter water on the King of Thailand: "If you move the things of the Prince's Mansion, you can move them well, why do you even take my family's things with you?" How did Juniper Jun train his officials? It's just a bunch of well-trained thieves, it's too unqualified! Damn it! Catch up with Ming'er Lao Zifei to pee on the main hall of the household yamen, and see what the old guy surnamed Du dares to do to me! ”

"This," the King muttered. There was some hesitation whether to echo Fang Zheng's remarks or praise Fang Zheng's eclecticism.

"His Royal Highness the King of Thailand, sprinkle together?" Fang Zheng warmly extended an invitation to the King of Thailand.

"Huh?" King Khan of Thailand, stammered: "This" yet, it's better not to use it, Brother Fang is a person who specializes in beauty, but the younger brother is willing to be Brother Fang, that, wave the flag and shout"
