Chapter 410: Raise Your Hand
The fact that the Youlan Pavilion was burned to the ground was very fierce in Jiangning. Although its business is not as good as before, Ma Xianglan is always a celebrity in the social circle, and the Youlan Pavilion was also a famous gold cave in Jiangning. Such a field was burned, and several surrounding courtyards were burned, and the entire Jiangning flower world was frustrated, which was obviously a great impact on the rich men in Jiangning.
Naturally, such a big matter can't be hidden, no matter what the government says or what the truth is, the people know it in their hearts. With the passage of time, the people gradually learned more and more about the details of the conflict that day, for example, Feng Bangning was unwilling to be beaten by Fan Jin in the Yang family, and tried to retaliate against Fan Jin by retaliating against Ma Xianglan, and Fan Jin caught most of his minions, which became a hot topic of conversation in Jiangning City.
In the several teahouses opened by Xu Weizhi, they are very lively when they get up in the morning. Well-dressed scribes, well-dressed merchants, and some officials in regular clothes gathered together in groups of three or five and talked in whispers. Except for a few people who had no interest in Shi Zheng and only focused on the game, most of them did not use board games or chess pieces, but all paid attention to the outcome of the battle and the changes in the situation.
"Jinyi Yamen went to Shangyuan County twice, and both touched nails. Although there are people in Jinyiwei, the crime of gathering crowds can be exempted, but the charge of picking quarrels and provoking troubles is still there, and Shangyuan County has no intention of releasing people. There is also the case of the burning of the Youlan Pavilion, Ma Xianglan wrote a complaint and threw it directly into the house. Master Fan said that those people were accomplices in arson, so they could not be released casually. ”
"Ma Siniang, is this Yueya?"
"Naturally, it's Yue Ya. Jiangning County is still begging her to go to the Ya, it is not easy to hand over this paper to the county, Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, who can he afford to provoke? It's good to throw this hot steamed bun out early, who wants to hold it in their hands? ”
"That being said, this arson is in Jiangning, not in Shangyuan, Fan Jin can't cross the county, right?"
He bit these people to death and was an accomplice in arson, Jiangning County could not come to Shangyuan County to dignitaries, and Wang Jingzhao was famous and muddy, so he couldn't see the result at the moment. Of course, people can't let go, and I'm afraid this case won't be so easy to pass. Feng Bangning did not admit to setting the fire, Ma Xianglan bit him to death and set the fire, and in the end, it was estimated that it was a confused lawsuit. A sum of money was broken in the house, and Ma Xianglan was bought without suing. This mother-in-law is not easy to mess with, but now that she is in love with Master Fan, it is even more difficult to deal with. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, what is a concubine, the two of them don't live together."
"Haven't you heard? In order to save Ma Xianglan, Master Fan moved the real fire, and personally went to Shangyuan County to respond, knocked over the four thugs with three punches on the spot, and carried Ma Siniang back to the yamen, which was a goddess meeting King Xiang that night. Now I have selected land in Shangyuan County and are preparing to build a restaurant, called Youlanju. Listen, doesn't this mean that the Orchid Pavilion has moved? ”
"What about Feng Bangning?"
"I can't even see a human figure right now, who knows where? But sooner or later, it will definitely come out, and it is impossible to suffer this dumb loss, which is not like Feng Taisui's style. Besides, his subordinates are still locked up in the county yamen, if he wants to protect his own people, who will be willing to fight with him in the future? ”
For this conflict, most Jiangning people have this attitude of watching the excitement. Emotionally, they are closer to Fan Jin, who raised cowpox, but in this battle of victory and defeat, they have no opinion on who wins. Especially in the officialdom of Jiangning, the officials of Kedao seemed to be collectively blind, and no one paid attention to the conflict between Fan Feng and the two, let alone said a word.
These science and technology officials have a clear heart, and if they impeach anyone at this time, it will be tantamount to persuading the two of them. Behind one is Feng Bao, and the other is likely to be Zhang Juzheng, plus the emperor and the queen mother. If the originally sincere and united collaborators have a conflict or even turn against each other because of their own children, it is the best news for many officials. It is a good thing that they have adopted a cold attitude towards the conflicts between the two sides, and let them fight against each other, and whoever loses and who wins.
The burghers can't see that far, but they also have a habit of watching and being lively, and they take this conflict as a big show. At present, a clear building has been burned, and several people have died unexpectedly. On the other side, most of the minions were taken, and the others were also within the range of the lock, and the good show was just started, and there was still a performance to be played later.
At this moment, a businessman hurriedly walked in and sat down, and after asking for tea and snacks, he used a fan to cool off while muttering to himself: "Amazing...... It's really powerful, this Ming Feng dart line seems to be reliable. ”
His words, which had no beginning or end, immediately attracted the attention of the others, and someone approached him and asked why, and the merchant said, "You haven't heard of it?" Today another man was mutilated. Two legs were broken alive, and they were cured and wasted...... Who? Who else? Naturally, it was the person who set the fire in the Youlan Pavilion that day, the guard next to Feng Taisui. I heard that I went out to buy something last night and didn't return all night. I was thrown at the door today and my leg was broken. The calculation shows that the person who set the fire either broke his arm or broke his leg, and he was disabled for life. There was a man who took advantage of the chaos to play a watch for nothing, and he was gelding, and he couldn't live it. ”
This incident is also a strange case that happened after the fire in the Youlan Pavilion, the perpetrator came and went without a trace, and even the victim couldn't say who cleaned up himself. Several of the Lahu who were in charge of blocking the back door that night also participated in the arson, and some took advantage of the chaos to touch and pinch those women, and even disappeared in the past few days. This kind of social person doesn't care about it in the first place, even if it's dead, but such a directional cleanup is obviously not a coincidence or unconscious behavior.
The person next to him asked, "Brother, what does this have to do with the Mingfeng Dart Bureau?" ”
"Confused. Think about it, who has the ability to do this? It's not Feng Sidad's means? Anyway, I've hired two dart masters from Mingfeng Dart to take care of the home at home. As for their methods and the relationship between them and the yamen, I can also trust them. The little servants of their own family are not as loyal and obedient as they are. ”
"That's true, I heard that the Yang family also hired four dart masters, but they were all women, and they said that they were used to protect the inner house. I really can't figure it out, what is the use of a few women? If you want to hire a man, hire a man. ”
"It's time to hire some people, Feng Bangning almost burned down Qin Huai's courtyard because of the loss. If the Yang family doesn't solve this matter, when will he touch it again and spread wild, how can it be good? ”
Everyone started talking again, and the point of discussion was still on the festival between Fan Jin and Feng Bangning.
In the private seat, Xu Liu pouted, looking unhappy, Xu Weizhi had no choice but to coax her on the side, "Little sister, don't be angry, you know who Ma Xianglan is, she just does that, and retreat is just acting on the spot, don't take it seriously." When I turned around, my brother drove her away......"
"Don't rush! She is so pitiful, how can she still drive her away? Xu Liu said angrily: "Besides, as soon as Youlanju opens, she will naturally leave, so why rush." If my brother-in-law knew that I hated Ma Xianglan, he would definitely think that I was one of those jealous bad women in the script. Haven't you seen it, big brother? That kind of bad woman didn't end well in the end. Do you want me to be a bad woman, let my sister ...... Am I disgusted by all? ”
"It's not...... Of course not, but aren't you angry with her? ”
"I am the daughter of a dignified prince, what is her identity? What qualifies me to be angry? I'm angry with Feng Bangning. It's really bad that you dare to go against your brother-in-law. Because of him, we couldn't attend classes at our girls' school, so I was so angry. ”
Xu Weizhi learned the truth about his baby sister's anger, and smiled dumbly, "Sixth, you are wrong to blame Feng Bangning, it's none of his business." It's because I really don't have time to think about it recently, the yamen lends money, and the Youlanju site is located to build a house, so many things are on him, how can I care about you little girls. ”
As soon as the words came out, he realized that it was going to be bad, and seeing that his sister was about to turn from anger to crying, he hurriedly said, "No, no, I mean...... I mean, you'll have to let him do some work. At present, there are dozens of people in prison, and every day just asking for intercession has to take up half a day. But people can't be untrustworthy, he promised his sister to run a girls' school, so he has to talk and count. I went to him in the afternoon and asked him to start school as soon as possible, even if it was for one class. ”
"Hmm." Xu Liu's face finally looked better, and then reminded: "Big brother, you have to remember, it's those girls who are in a hurry, don't say it's me in a hurry." ”
"I know, the sixth sister is the most well-behaved and gentle, she never plays tricks, she doesn't make Miss angry, my brother knows it." Xu Weizhi agreed in his mouth, but he knew in his heart that this matter really had to be delayed. Before Fan Jin and Feng Bangning didn't know what the result of the battle was, the family didn't want to get too close to Fan Jin, especially the sixth sister. This girl is a little dangerous now, in case she has a personal relationship with Fan Jin, things will not be easy to handle, and the two should see each other less.
The best way is to take the little sister to the yamen to see what Fan Jin looks like now, but after all, she can't bear to let the little sister's mood get better again, so she has to continue to pretend to be confused.
At this time, Fan Jin in the yamen was lying on the bed, enjoying the massage of Ma Xianglan's other two women, all three of whom were dressed very coolly, which was particularly eye-catching.
The rented house next to the yamen is a trick to avoid tongue-in-cheek. In fact, these women walked through the house and through the courtyard, and it was not appropriate to go to and from the back door to the county government as if they were walking on the ground. Nominally, he learned cooking from Zheng Chan, but no one knows what he really did.
Although Fan Jin only ate Ma Xianglan, the other women always wanted to find a chance to get a piece of the pie. The fact that he knocked over a Feng family thug with a few punches made him more attractive among these women, and some women were willing to accompany him. Even if you can't accompany her, you have to use some means to seduce, and Ma Xianglan can only open her eyes and close her eyes and have no way to intervene.
These three women have the means to massage, although they are not skilled in martial arts, but this percussion and pressure can also make people's blood usually feel comfortable, which is very good for relieving fatigue. Occasionally, some benefits come out, which makes Fan Jin sigh that being an official is to enjoy, and there is no such good life as a Beijing official.
While enjoying the service, he introduced today's results, and broke the legs of two horn tigers with a clamp stick in the public court, counting the one whose leg was broken last night, the person who set the fire that day, there were only three Feng Bangning's henchmen left, because he was always left and right, and he couldn't find a chance to start. In terms of revenge, Ma Xianglan's revenge can be regarded as more than half. Considering the identity gap between the two countries, this step is actually the limit.
The woman who was defiled by Feng Bangning's men on the night of arson was also one of the people who served. She was also in the leather and meat business, but she hated the other party for being too rough and not giving money. Unexpectedly, because of his own incident, he actually directly inflicted palace punishment on the other party and finally let him die of injury, half panic and half gratitude in his heart, and said to Fan Jin:
"There are many men in the world, and I'm afraid that only Master Fan is willing to treat cheap women like us as people. The slave family has no long things, only this unclean body, if the eldest master does not dislike it, the slave family will serve you with Siniang tonight. ”
"If you are bold, you dare to cut the waist of the old lady's boots when you are in front of the old lady, and you will find death!" Ma Xianglan raised her hand and made a beating motion, and the woman said with a smile: "Didn't people say that they would be with Siniang, and they didn't eat alone." You are only allowed to be with Zheng Chan's cook, why don't you allow me? In terms of ability and appearance, I am much better than her. ”
"Roll the edge!" Ma Xianglan scolded with a smile and pushed the woman away, and Fan Jin said, "If you want to repay me, learn how to stir-fry with Zheng Chan and quarrel less." In particular, don't bully her. There are many of you, she can't quarrel, she can't fight, I won't agree to you bullying her. Don't use the restaurant as a joke, this is a serious businessman. Look at the three slow sounds, the fame is greater than yours, and the ten fingers do not touch the spring water. Now, look at her serious way of learning to cook, where does she still look like a red man? ”
The woman pouted, "She is thinking about Zhang Sanshao, an infatuated woman with a negative heart, Zhang Sangongzi is not as good as Master Fan, as soon as she enters the Beijing Division, she has no follow-up, and she has already been left behind." It's just a deal, and she's taking it seriously, she's really stupid. In order to prove that she is not greedy for the Zhang family's money, she has to support herself, and I don't know what to say about her. Marrying into the Prime Minister's Mansion is naturally to wear gold and silver to make slaves call maids, but now it has fallen to the point of being a cook, and it is better than in the past. ”
Ma Xianglan glanced at her, "Youlanju is a way out for our sisters, you know how much effort it takes." The capital is all from a small country, and if you don't do it well, everyone will have no conscience. ”
"Know, we're going to do it well. After a while, the master will be on duty, and I will continue to learn to manage the accounts, anyway, I can't do stir-frying. ”
Ma Xianglan ignored her anymore, and only asked Fan Jindao: "What if Feng Bangning still comes to make trouble when the restaurant opens?" ”
"Not really. The restaurant is in Shangyuan, and he is not stupid. The subordinates haven't fished out yet, do you want to send another batch in? Even if he wanted to, his subordinates wouldn't. ”
Ma Xianglan said: "Think about it, those people should actually be let go or let go." ”
"How so? Has someone asked you for a favor? ”
Ma Xianglan nodded, "That's right, there are indeed people who ask me for favors, but that's not the point." Rather, I was thinking about a question, since they were able to ask for favors from me, it shows that their means are clever and their contacts are extensive. I don't think about it, but I don't know how much pressure I have borne for this lawsuit, and I have to deal with these people in countless difficulties. I take this heart, but I can't watch you offend so many people for me. We women laugh and cry in front of us, and everyone praises us as playthings, and no one really takes us seriously. You are the first to treat us as human beings, and the more so, the more we hope that you will be prosperous. If it is for you to cause your career to be frustrated, the gods and Buddhas will not tolerate it. So let them go, things have come to this point, my anger is out, and it's useless to lock them up anymore to release them. ”
The other party also promised two unopened girls, just thirteen years old, who were good baby cabbage. But don't touch us, don't touch the two chicks. The woman on the side spoke quickly and said all the conditions.
Fan Jin laughed, pulled Ma Xianglan and said, "Tell them to exchange those two girls for silver." I have this good one, who is rare they send baby cabbage. If you want to release people, you can prepare for silver redemption! ”
