In front of the small building where Han Yizhen lives, dozens of peach trees are planted, it is the height of spring, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, colorful and dazzling, and the colorful petals are lightly blown by the spring breeze. Falling to the ground.

Han Yizhen stood in the peach forest, the breeze blew through her clothes, floating like a fairy, and the scattered peach petals in the forest contrasted with each other, the picture was beautiful, like a fairyland.

Fairy Han seems to have troubles in the world at the moment. The pretty face frowned lightly, biting her lower lip from time to time, which looked extremely pitiful.

The eyebrows of the beauties contain light sorrow, and they are not all for the sake of love, Han Yizhen is an exception.

What worries her is the current situation of the Han family. The prefects of the seven prefectures were all taken into prison by Fang Zheng, and the officialdom of Xiaojiang was shocked, and it can be imagined how violent the reaction of the court and the people would be when the news spread throughout the Chinese Dynasty. These were originally none of her and the Han family's affairs, but almost at the same time as the prefect of the Seven Prefectures was arrested, the concierge of the Han family's mansion sent a letter, which made her begin to feel that the crisis of the Han family was coming.

Not a word was written on the letter, and on the snow-white paper, there was only a shocking trace of blood, which had dried up and turned dark red, faintly exuding disgusting blood.

As Han Zhu unfolded the letterhead, his face became extremely pale.

This is a clear warning and threat. The Han family has been based in Jiangnan for more than 100 years, and has experienced good times and disadvantages, but has never been threatened like this, Han Yizhen was on the side at the time, and when she saw the blood stains on the letterhead, her heart gradually sank to the bottom.

There is no need to guess, of course this letter was sent by the person behind the scenes, and the Han family knows that this bloodstain may be the future of the Han family!

The Han family is the first and only one. Throwing refuge in the family of the imperial court as quickly as possible, this move more or less caused the dissatisfaction of other families in Jiangnan, of course, the most dissatisfied of them is the person behind the tax case, and the posture shown by the Han family is to completely ignore the eyes of others, and is determined to go with the court to the end. Gradually, they stood in a hostile position with other families, in other words, the Han family was isolated in Jiangnan.

Since ancient times, the cooperation between the family and the imperial court is not nothing, but now the situation is different, Qin sent down to Jiangnan, obviously on behalf of the Son of Heaven to inspect, in fact, many families have also tasted it, this is the new emperor to take advantage of the family in Jiangnan, the Han family at this time to take refuge in the court, tantamount to putting themselves in the position of a traitor to the family.

If the Qin Cha purge of Jiangnan this time is successful, the power of the Han family will become stronger and stronger, and the officialdom and the people of the shopping mall will infiltrate more children of the clan. From now on, the position of the Han family in the first family in Jiangnan will be firm and unshakable, but if Qin Cha can't succeed in purging Jiangnan this time, and finally make a fuss and return to Beijing, then the fate of the Han family,

What makes Han Yizhen even more troubled is that the person behind the tax case obviously has a very big hostility towards the Han family, with his unfathomable potential power, it may not be too difficult to ruin Han's family, and the wordless letterhead that implies warnings and threats is to tell the Han family that it is best not to get involved with the Qincha, otherwise the Han family will be bloody.

Han Yizhen hesitated and wavered.

This is not a joke, if the hundred-year-old foundation of the Han family is uprooted because of defection to the imperial court, what face will she have to meet the ancestors of the Han family?

"Zhen'er, what are you thinking?" Han Zhu's deep voice broke her musings.

Han Yizhen smiled bitterly, turned around, looked at Han Zhu, and said softly, "Dad, have you really decided to help Fang Zheng without looking back?" ”

At the mention of Fang Zheng's name, Han Yizhen couldn't help but grit his teeth secretly, what was that shameless and immoral disciple who was favored by his father and was willing to devote the entire Han family to help him?

Han Zhu shook his head with a smile and corrected: "It's not to help Fang Zheng, but to help the imperial court, if our Han family wants to preserve the century-old family business, if we want to carry it forward." You can't stand on the opposite side of the court, otherwise, the family will be ruined and people will die.

Biting his lower lip, Han Yizhen said: "Dad, have you ever thought about what situation our Han family will face if Fang Zheng fails to investigate the tax case this time and returns in vain?" ”

Han Zhu laughed, and his words were full of heroism: "Failure is failure, it's a big deal, our Han family moved out of Jiangnan and started over in another place, the world is so big, where can't we stand?" As long as the imperial court has a good impression of my Han family, the Han family will be able to recover with the help of the imperial court in three or five years, but if we insist on fighting against the imperial court, we will leave a bad impression of the emperor and the ministers of the court as unruly and self-respecting. Sooner or later, my Han family will face the disaster of extermination, those family heads in Jiangnan are too short-sighted and accustomed to being the emperor of the soil in Jiangnan, and they are reluctant to save the family business for more than 100 years, so they dare not and do not want to throw themselves into the imperial court, they, hum! They will soon understand how unwise their choice is today! ”

"Dad, you are so sure that Fang Zheng's trip will definitely solve the tax case and find out the person behind the scenes

In the final analysis, the tax case is the key to winning or losing.

Han Zhu said with a smile: "Fang Zheng seems to be impetuous and frivolous, but in fact he has his own plans, and the old man has checked some of his previous experiences in the capital. It was found that this person went from obscurity to power, and in addition to good luck, his style of acting was also very amazing. The Art of War: All those who fight, with the right fit, with the odd victory. Fang Zheng has never walked the right path. Everything he said and did was a sword that went off the rails, from offering advice to retreat from the Turks, to defeating Pan Shangshu, to designing Prince Ping's rebellion, everything he did seemed unpredictable. Therefore, the Turks retreated, Pan Shangshu died, and the crown prince also died, but his officials became bigger and bigger. I have to admit that this person still has some ability, but his ability is hidden under his flamboyant appearance, and it is not easy for ordinary people to find out."

Han Yizhen bit his lower lip hatefully, his face full of disapproval. All I know is that this damn disciple has belittled me several times, and can such a debaucherous and immoral person solve this case?

Han Zhuwei sighed: "I don't know why. I have a lot of confidence in this young minister. Let me wait and see what he does... What kind of surprise did they bring, Han Zhu looked at her daughter sideways, stroked her hair with infinite pity, and sighed: "Zhen'er, people can't be good-looking." Don't be deceived by the words and deeds of others, so as to misjudge a person's nature and mind, how can you not understand this truth? You're in the middle of the game! Tell Dad the truth. Do you have a secret affection for that Fang Zheng? ”

Han Yizhen was taken aback, then his pretty face turned red with shame, and he said urgently: "Dad, how is it possible!" How could I fall in love with that shameless "Dengzi?" If it weren't for the fact that he was a member of the imperial court, I would have killed him with one sword. ”

Han Zhu smiled noncommittally and said, "You have been in the boudoir all these years, working hard for my Han family for many years, delaying your personal final guidance, Zhen'er, you should also think about your own affairs,"

After a pause, Han Zhu said again: "A few days ago, the Ye family in Hangzhou came to propose marriage, you also know the second son of the Ye family, he looks quite handsome, and he is also polite, if my Han family marries with his Ye family, the family's power and wealth can take a big step forward, of course, this must first ask for your consent, if you are interested, your father will go to respond to the Ye family's ceremony, if you don't want to." This is no longer the case

Han Yizhen blushed, lowered her head and thought about it, and said, "Dad, I have a very general impression of the second son of Ye, but" If the marriage between the two families is beneficial to the Han family, the daughter is willing to consider this marriage, and now the Han family is in crisis. Let's wait for this matter to settle down before reasoning. ”

The father and daughter of the Han family were worried about the progress of the tax case, but Lord Qin Chafang was very relaxed at this time. He was affectionately hooking the shoulders of the King of Thailand, and the brothers happily walked around the green building.

The name of the green building is "Tibetan Xiangyuan", which is a very elegant name, and the girls in it are of course like this name, elegant and refined, and the conversation is extraordinary.

Before stepping into the gate of the Tibetan Incense Temple, the King of Thailand stopped and said with a solemn expression: "Slow, Brother Fang!" ”

Fang Zheng was stunned. Looking at him puzzled.

The King of Thailand coughed twice, and said seriously: "I have rarely experienced this kind of thing when visiting the Qinglou, and Brother Fang seems to be a veteran in this." There is one thing, let's put the villain first and then the gentleman. ”

"What's the matter?"

Sail who treats. Who pays the bills? ”

Fang Zheng was so surprised that even his eyes popped out: "Brother King of Thailand, you are the prince, and you are the prince who treats money like dung, why do you ask me this today?" How vulgar."

The King of Thailand smiled bitterly: "It's not that I'm vulgar, someone told me that you have a bad character, and you often slip away after taking advantage of it, leaving a big boss to help you pay the bills, and the money is coming to me, but I don't want to be a big boss,"

"Who? Which rumor-monger? Am I such a shameless person? Too bad! Fang Zheng felt insulted, and jumped to his feet and scolded emotionally.

Then Fang Zheng paused. Suddenly remembered something, and looked at the king of Thailand and said, "Xiao Huaiyuan? ”

The King of Thailand smiled silently.

"I knew it was him! That one is not well-intentioned, often slandered me behind my back, this time I go back to the capital, I will give the emperor, castrated him into the palace as a eunuch, I will ensure that he is the head of the inner house"

"I just let him have two meals, look at that guy is stingy"

The king of Thailand sighed deeply: "It seems that Lord Xiao is not wrong, you really took advantage of it and slipped away" Brother Fang, I look in the mirror today, and the more I look at it, the more I feel that I am today like a very wronged leader, only

Fang Zheng smiled and hooked his shoulder: "That must be your hallucination." Don't worry, I have a treat today, and I will never slip away halfway, with my noble personality guarantee"

"Your personality," the King of Thailand's expression became more and more worried.

The buddy walked into the Tibetan incense courtyard intimately.

Walking into the courtyard, Fang Zheng looked around, couldn't help but be poetic, and sighed with emotion: "Asking you how sad you can be, it's just like two eunuchs visiting the Qinglou"

The King of Thailand glared at him with an ugly face.

Fang Zheng smiled calmly: "Hehe, I was emotional, so I wrote this poem, Brother King of Thailand thinks"

As its name suggests. In fact, it is a set of courtyard houses that cover a wide area, a total of two floors, two red lanterns are hung high at the courtyard gate, and in the middle of the courtyard is a rockery that is piled up very gorgeously, and it is fake. The next bet is a crystal clear pool, in which dozens of colorful koi fish swim, leisurely shaking their heads and tails in the water.

Bypassing the rockery, it is the entrance of the corridor, an old-fashioned middle-aged woman stands under the corridor, of course, it is not like the TV in the previous life, the guest shouted at the top of her voice as soon as she came: "The girl upstairs and downstairs is a guest!" Then a large number of warblers and swallows suddenly appeared upstairs to flatter the guests. This is actually an exaggeration, but it is not.

In fact, the whole Qinglou is very quiet, only the faint Fuqin recital came, reflecting the landscape downstairs, and the artistic conception is very elegant.

The old dove stood at the entrance of the stairs. Seeing Fang Zheng and the others walking in, they stepped forward. gave the two of them a blessing, and spoke softly to Wu Yi. He said softly: "The two sons are fortunate to be in the Tibetan Incense Temple, and the slave family is polite." Dare to ask the two sons, are there any girls who know each other? Or the slave family will introduce two thoughtful girls, and the two will drink and talk? ”

Fang Zheng played with the folding fan. opened it with a snap, then put away the small scan for a week, and said with a smile: "This mother, our brothers are here to have fun today, but we don't like to be too noisy."

As he spoke, he pointed to the laughter of the guests in the upstairs wing, and Fang Zheng continued: "So, I'm going to charter the venue today." "Chartered?" The King of Thailand's eyes straightened, and hurriedly said: "Brother Fang, just find a quiet room, you don't have to spend so much, right?" ”

Fang Zheng blinked and smiled: "It's okay, I'm rich today, and I'm very rich, the rich is the uncle, and the uncle wants to put on a show today, no one can stop me, this mother, are you right?" ”

Fly an old donkey, and then full of roads! "There are too many guests who come to the public to have fun at noon... Dao said that the sister invited them out, I am afraid that the slave family's Tibetan incense courtyard will offend many people, and the son is embarrassed by the slave family

Fang Zheng smiled and took out a large-denomination silver ticket. slapped it in the old man's hand and said with a smile: "Now you won't be embarrassed, right?" ”

The old dove's eyes lit up, although she looked elegant and gentle, but which one. The dove doesn't love money? Seeing that Fang Zheng made such a generous move, he couldn't help but be moved, thought about it in embarrassment, and finally shook his head again, and said: "Childe, it's not that the slave family doesn't know how to lift, it's really that the slave family should not offend other guests, please forgive me." ”

Fang Zheng snorted and said, "You don't need to offend, I'll offend." ”

As he spoke, Fang Zheng raised his head, then became angry, and suddenly shouted, "Run!" It's on fire! Run for your life! ”

，”

The upstairs laughter continued, no one paid attention to him, not even Deng came out, and no one watched.

"These horny bastards! Scum! Scum! Fang Zheng bit hatefully.

The old dove on the side and the king of Thailand glanced at each other. looked at each other and smiled bitterly. You're not, why are you here?

Fang Zheng rolled his eyes unwillingly. Then he continued to be angry and shouted, "Run!" Your wife has broken in and caught the adulterer! ”

This sentence finally paid off.

I could only hear the sudden collective silence of the wings upstairs, followed by a few exclamations, followed by the sound of broken cups and saucers, mixed with the screams of the girls, and the frightened rebukes of the guests, and the doors of the wings opened almost at the same time. A group of untidy men with messy hair stumbled out and ran downstairs in a panic, some of them didn't even have time to put on their clothes, and ran out bare-chested. When they arrived downstairs, all the men invariably chose to bypass the main entrance of the Tibetan incense courtyard, and fled from the back door. The scene was chaotic as if there was a military disaster.

With a cup of tea, except for Fang Zheng and King Tai in the Tibetan incense courtyard, all the men ran cleanly, and they couldn't even find a rooster.

The old stunned and the king of Thailand's eyes straightened. After staring at Fang Zheng for a long time, the King of Thailand smiled bitterly and gave Fang Zheng a thumbs up: "Brother Fang." You are really "really"

After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't think of what words to use to praise Fang Zheng, Fang Zheng smiled and helped him out: "Too talented?" ”

"That's right! So talented! The King of Thailand looked at the wolf in the courtyard, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Brother Fang's psychological speculation about the world is so deep, I am really inferior to you,"

Fang Zheng's face twitched a few times. After being silent for a long time, he said: "This is not speculation, this is, alas, the painful memories I have experienced."

I think that back then, Changping came to catch him and Sister Feng's adultery, and he was so scared that he almost didn't jump from the fifth floor, which was really an unbearable experience".

The King of Thailand and the old blanket were stunned:,"

After a long time, the old dove tugged at the corners of his mouth. Reluctantly smiled: "The two sons are so quiet, this time it is completely quiet, the two sons are upstairs, please," chose an elegant and quiet room, Fang Zheng and Taiwang sat down, and a table of exquisite and unique wine and food was brought up by the maid and placed on the table.

The two of them each picked two girls who were pleasing to the eye, and then began to eat and drink.

With a chopsticks of valuable canary tongue in the mouth, the King of Thailand fattened Fang Zheng and said with a smile: "Brother Fang is so interested today." Why did you suddenly remember to visit the green house? As far as I know, you have opened several green buildings in the capital, right? ”

Fang Zheng said with a smile: "It is said that fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, but the silver I spent today is not coming from the right way, so I just spent it cleanly, so as to save it from being blackmailed by your emperor's younger brother for some reason." Then I'm so wronged. ”

The King of Thailand laughed and said, "The fourth emperor brother is already the king of a country, how can he extort your silver?" How many of you"

Fang Zhengjun's face fell: "Don't believe it, he knocked me 10 million taels of silver when he published it, and I still feel pain in my heart now,"

The King of Thailand pointed at Fang Zheng and said with a smile: "You still lie to me, do you think I don't know?" It was the property of the former prince's mansion, which should have been deposited into the treasury, and if you handed it over to the imperial court, it should be

Fang Zheng immediately showed a scoundrel's face: "Then I don't care, whoever grabs it will be whoever." Tobe Shangshu Jun Jungsan wants silver, why don't he grab it himself? The old guy only knows how to wipe his tears and farts around me, like an old man named Hanako, and he gets angry when he sees him! Hey, let's not talk about that. The more I talked, the more angry I became, "Brother King of Thailand, there is something that I have always been very strange"

The King of Thailand's hand paused. Then calmly put down the chopsticks and said lightly: "What's the matter?" ”

Fang Zheng glanced at the King of Thailand up and down, and said with a smile: "I hit it off with Brother King Tai at first sight, let me tell you the truth, these sons of the former emperor, except for you and the fat man, there are few other good things."

The King of Thailand looked bitter, shook his head and smiled: "Brother Fang, aren't you pointing at the monk and scolding the bald man?" ”

Fang Zheng smiled: "It's okay, I just want to say a few heart-wrenching words to Brother King of Thailand today, even if you hear it, don't take it to heart, I didn't mean anything about you." You see. These sons of the first emperor, except for you and the fat man, the others were all cleaned up by me next to each other, the prince rebelled blatantly, and King Shou rebelled secretly. The King of England sneakily plotted a rebellion, "Hey, I said, do you royal families like the profession of rebels?" ”

"Huh? This, as it should. Maybe, "No." "The King of Thailand thinks Fang Zheng is very sharp.

Fang Zheng smiled, raised his eyes to look at the King of Thailand, and asked coldly, "Brother King of Thailand, what about you?" You didn't think about rebellion? ”

Poof, the king of Thailand squirted out a mouthful of wine. Then his face turned red and he choked and coughed.

"Fang" cough, Brother Fang. Don't ask such sharp questions in the future, ahem, it's going to die! The King of Thailand pointed at Fang Zheng and coughed and accused.
