Chapter 310: A Coincidental Encounter with the Dead

Sun Chuanting has returned to Shanxi 1 West and waited in Daizhou for two days, and his wife in Xi'an has also received the news that she has returned from Xi'an with her two concubines and children.

People often say "three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver", but this sentence does not apply to Sun Chuanting. has been an official for 20 years, but when he resigned and returned to his hometown, he did not have much money, which shows that he is indeed very honest.

Of course, as a gentry class, Sun Chuanting has his own land in his hometown, and he can still maintain a basic life, so as not to be as clean and destitute as Hai Rui.

Sun Chuanting's eldest son, Sun Shirui, is now in his twenties, and he is on the same path as the imperial examination.

However, he has been busy with official business for a long time and has no time to teach his son, and now Sun Shirui is studying in the capital Guozijian, which belongs to the "shadow prison", which is a form of admission for the children of bureaucrats in the Ming Dynasty, and can directly participate in the township examination without first taking the test to show their fame.

Sun Chuanting had already gone to the imperial court, resigned and returned to his hometown, and he didn't even go back to the capital. But what he didn't expect was that he hadn't been at home for a few days before the people sent by the court to arrest him arrived.

Not only did he arrest himself, but he also had to be detained and sent to Jingshi together with his family.

All this, just because of the letter of persuasion that Li Xiuwen sent him not long ago, coupled with his defeat, gave the imperial historians in the court a chance to impeach, saying that he colluded with the rebels and intended to bury the 20,000 troops of the imperial court.

The wind hears that it is true, three points are false, and two points are made up by the brain.

The most distinctive supervision system of the Ming Dynasty, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, has developed to the extent that it has now reached the level of a miasma, and these people no longer need to care about whether the impeachment of others is true, but only need a little rumor, or political discord, they will speak out and attack, and put others to death.

Anyway, you don't have to pay taxes when you talk, you can talk as much as you want, and you can do as much as you want.

This matter also has something to do with Yang Sichang, he already had some contradictions with Sun Chuanting, and the defeat in the war made him impeached, in order to divert the contradictions, he led the fire to Sun Chuanting and asked him to take responsibility for himself.

After Yang Sichang said a few irresponsible words, he patted his ass and left the capital and went to Huguangping to make trouble. The officials who remained in the court really had nothing to do, so they followed the impeachment of Sun Chuanting.

Who made you lose the battle?

With 10,000 horses in the headquarters, plus thousands of people in a total army, a total of nearly 20,000 troops, isn't your Sun Chuanting known as the king of 5,000 people?

In Shaanxi, hundreds of thousands of rebellious troops can be exterminated, how come more than 10,000 people were defeated when they arrived at Li Xiuwen? And it's a rout!

Zhu Youzhen was already suspicious of him, and after learning the news of the defeat, coupled with the doubts of Yang Sichang and others, he finally decided to order someone to go to Daizhou and capture Sun Chuanting's family.

The leaders of Dongchang and Jinyiwei sent him to Kaifeng, so he had to order Fang Ning to send this errand to Beizhen.

It shouldn't be difficult to catch a civil official.

Fang Ning led people to the hall, and when he saw him, he arched his hand and said with a smile: "Lord Sun, this official also came to take your family back to Beijing by the will of the Holy Lord, and I hope you will not embarrass us." ”

Sun Chuanting already knew their intentions, nodded slightly, summoned the steward who had followed him for many years, and ordered: "Go and let Mrs. pack up simply, let's go to Beijing together." ”

"Sun Chuanting, do you still think you are an official of the imperial court?"

A Xiaoqi suddenly spoke up, and said with disdain on his face: "Our Lord Fang is here to escort you back to Beijing with your family, how can you have the kung fu to delay?" Hurry up, come with us! ”

Sun Chuanting was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that he had served the court for so many years, and in the end he would be bullied to such a point, he couldn't help but shake his head secretly, and sighed in his heart: "This court has reached the point where there is no distinction between right and wrong, and black and white are reversed. ”

Fang Ning's eyes widened, and when he turned around, he slapped a palm on the man's head, and said angrily: "Little bastard, Lao Tzu is still standing here, who allows you to be rude to Master Sun?!! ”

"It's-"

This little flag made him stunned, covering the back of his head and looking at him in disbelief, but he didn't dare

"What is this? Give Lao Tzu a slap in the face! ”

Fang Ning was so angry in his heart, this person was not his cronies, it was just that his mouth was sweeter, and he knew how to stammer, so he decided to take this person down to get some credit, but he didn't expect to dare to speak disrespectfully.

Li Xiuwen respects Sun Chuanting very much, he knows this, even if it is out of friendship between the two, he should not be rude to Sun Chuanting.

This person reprimanded him, and he was very aggrieved, but he had no choice but to do it, and began to scrape his ears.

"Smack-"

"Smack-"

"Smack-"

Fang Ning looked at him coldly, and after he slapped him in the face several times, he shouted and stopped: "It's done, give Lao Tzu a long memory in the future." ”

The little flag hurriedly replied: "I understand the humble position." ”

After Sun Chuanting's family went through a simple tidying up, they followed them out of the door, never thought that there was a person fighting at the door, and when they saw Fang Ning, they immediately smiled and said: "Lord Fang, why don't you know if you have time to come to Daizhou, I can also prepare wine to entertain you?" ”

Fang Ning saw that this person in front of him was a little familiar, and he couldn't remember it for a while, so he couldn't help frowning and asked, "We know each other?" ”

Zhao Yuanliang didn't meet him many times, and immediately replied at this time: "I know each other, we are old people, Lord Fang is really a noble person, how forgetful he is!" ”

Fang Ning suddenly remembered, isn't this person Zhao Yuanliang, he has drunk a few times together in the Li family. Thinking of this, he was suddenly shocked in his heart, this person is a prisoner of the imperial court!

When Zhao Yuanliang saw his expression, he knew that he had thought of this, and hurriedly stepped forward and affectionately dragged his arm to the side, and said with a smile: "Fellow brothers, please wait, I have some personal matters to discuss with Lord Fang." ”

Everyone watched the two of them walk to the side, and among Fang Ning's cronies, there were actually two people who recognized Zhao Yuanliang, but they didn't dare to say anything.

After walking away, Fang Ning immediately lowered his voice and asked, "You kid ate dog guts, and you actually came to Daizhou?" Aren't you afraid that the official will take you back to Beijing and ask for a reward? ”

"Hey, heyβ€”"

Zhao Yuanliang laughed in a low voice: "Is Brother Fang that kind of person?" I came here on the orders of my brother-in-law to protect Lord Sun. ”

Regarding Fang Ning's character, Zhao Yuanliang felt that it was still credible, so he didn't hide it from him. But even if the other party turns his face, there are still more than ten of his subordinates hidden around, and it is not difficult to run.

When Fang Ning heard this, he immediately understood what the other party meant, this was planning to save Sun Chuanting's family. This made him a little embarrassed, if he let go of Sun Chuanting's family, how could he go back to Beijing to reply to his decree?

He quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, this matter is not negotiable." ”

Zhao Yuanliang scratched his head and said, "But this is what my brother-in-law explained, and he also said that it must be you, Brother Fang, who came this time, so let me not rashly do anything with you." ”

"It's-"

Fang Ning hesitated for a while, Li Xiuwen's words were very useful to him, indicating that the other party really regarded himself as his own.

Li Xiuwen actually guessed very accurately, Wang Zhixin and Xiao Yun let themselves be arrested in Kaifeng City, it is impossible to return to the capital so quickly, according to Zhu Youzhen's employment habits, eighty percent will send Beizhen to take people.

Fang Ning pondered for a while, and a very bold idea suddenly popped into his mind.

The people standing at the door only saw that he glanced back at his side, and then leaned in front of Zhao Yuanliang and whispered. Although they knew that things were unusual, none of these subordinates dared to approach that side without permission.

After Zhao Yuanliang listened to his words, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Then I saw Fang Ning's hand hidden in his chest, pointed to the back, leaned over slightly, leaned on his ear and whispered.

Zhao Yuanliang immediately nodded knowingly, pretended to glance at the back of the door casually, and after carefully confirming it, he smiled and arched his hand, and said goodbye and left.

I have to say that Fang Ning is a very righteous person, just because of Li Xiuwen's words, he can take a big risk and find a way to save people for the other party, how many people can do such a thing?

You must know that if the Jinyi guard comes down to arrest people, if he returns empty-handed, it will be a very serious crime of dereliction of duty. It's good if the saint doesn't want to investigate it now, but once the blame is down, this prison disaster is inevitable. (To be continued.) )
