Chapter 53: Seeing the Details

It was determined that Master Lu had bad intentions, and the next day, Xie Hong became more and more vigilant. He also felt that something was wrong before, but he didn't take it too seriously, he was just used to the caution of the surname, but since the Gu family joined in, the matter was likely to be tricky.

With this heart, Xie Hong unconsciously used his best skills.

He is a top craftsman, what is the most important thing about craftsmanship? Most people may say that they are a pair of skillful hands, but Xie Hong himself feels that eyesight is equally important. With a pair of skillful hands, you can only become an ordinary master, and only with a pair of discerning eyes can you become a top master.

When he entered the main registry office in the morning, Xie Hong seemed to be inadvertent, but in fact he observed it very carefully.

Well, the scroll is still the same as when it was under the government yesterday, and it should have not been passive; The things on the shelves are also the same......

None of this is a problem, but will the problem be with people? If this is the case, then Mr. Fang's unnaturalness in the past few days is normal. Old man Lu wooed him, and then did something in the paperwork, which was reasonable, Xie Hong made a judgment.

So......

Xie Hong focused his attention on Fang Jin, and said casually: "Mr. Fang, you said that something happened at home before, have you taken care of it now?" I told Brother Ma yesterday that he should go to your house to take care of it. ”

"Thank you, sir, don't dare to bother with labor, the lowly family is just a few trivial things, and everything has been taken care of."

The tone of his voice was not a big problem, but when he heard my question, his sleeve shook a few times, and he should have trembled. Fang Jin's movements were quite small, but this strange thing still fell in Xie Hong's eyes.

Suspicion, as long as it starts, will become more and more like a thread. Sensing the problem, Xie Hong didn't ask much, sat down in his place and began to flip through the scrolls, but his attention was still focused on Fang Jin.

"Mr. Fang, wait a minute, I have something to ask you." When he spoke, his tone was very serious, as far as Xie Hong knew, the leaders of later generations liked to use this method to deceive people, and now they are also leaders, so let's use them.

"Yes, sir." Fang Jin lowered his head deeper and stood aside.

Flipping through those scrolls casually, Xie Hong stared at Fang Jin out of the corner of his eyes, and changed more than a dozen books in a row, but he didn't find anything, until he picked up the main account book and finally made a discovery.

Just when he picked up this account book, Fang Jin's body stiffened slightly, and his movements were a little bigger than just now, for others, such movements were still invisible, but for Xie Hong, it was enough.

He opened the account book and lowered his head, as if to look at the account book.

After a while, Xie Hong noticed that cold sweat began to break out on Fang Jin's forehead, hum, there must be something wrong with this thing, since this is the case......

"Huh?" He let out a sudden startled sound, but he didn't look up, but took the account book a little closer, as if he had found something.

This contrived had a greater impact on Fang Jin, and this time Xie Hong didn't even need to concentrate to notice Fang Jin's abnormality. The old scribe's body had begun to swing, and the cold sweat on his forehead had gathered into a thin stream, condensing into beads of sweat the size of beans on his chin, dripping down the placket of his clothes.

Well, the problem is already obvious, brother to work harder. Xie Hong has always been merciless to hostile people, he suddenly raised his voice, pretended to be suspicious and pointed to the account book, and said, "Mr. Fang, isn't it right here?" ”

The effect was unexpectedly good, and even Xie Hong, who was acting, was startled.

Hearing only the sound of 'poof', Fang Jin had already knelt down, and kowtowed again and again: "Adults forgive sins, adults forgive sins, the villain is also forced to be helpless, please read that the villain has been assisting with all his heart, and forgive your sins." ”

Ever since he was called by Master Lu that day and then ordered this matter, Fang Jin couldn't even sleep well at night. Although Master Lu also assured that with the support of the county magistrate, there would definitely be no problem, and he would protect himself a future afterwards, but Fang Jin was still very afraid.

Who's the one to deal with? It's Lord Xie! It's only been two months since this boy became the head of the book, but what do you see what he's done? The Chen family has been rampant in Beizhuang County for decades, and he said that he would fight it, and after beating Master Chen, he had to come to the door to make amends, and then he had to scatter his wealth!

Master Lu has always been a fox and a tiger in the yamen, and he said nothing about it, but as a result, this Lord Xie robbed him of the position of the main bookkeeper, and embarrassed him several times, but as a result, didn't the county magistrate not pursue it? Plus the Gu family......

That's the imperial doctor of the court, a person who walks in front of the Son of Heaven, not to mention the small Beizhuang County, even in the capital, he is a person with status. As a result, didn't this Lord Xie say that he would give a face, and then he knocked a large sum of silver? I didn't see anything afterwards.

Fang Jin is also a scholar, and when he was young, he didn't believe in those ghosts and gods. But after many years, he is no longer confused, not only is the imperial examination hopeless, but he has not even mixed up in the yamen. Whether it is in the official career or the imperial examination, whenever he sees those young people who have won their ambitions, Fang Jin is sad for a while, feeling that those people are blessed by gods.

Otherwise, why did he try so hard and endure everything, but he only achieved nothing? He really couldn't help but not believe that there were gods in this world who were concerned.

And this Lord Xie is completely a god incarnation in Fang Jin's eyes. Otherwise, Master Xie is also a commoner, and he is just a showman, how can he do so many great things? These things can't be solved by impulse alone, and what else can they be?

The first offering of ancestral treasures is the blessing of the ancestors, but what about the second time? Henan is so big, why haven't others encountered such a god craftsman? Again......

Fang Jin thought of the rumors that were circulating in the market, and he was even more convinced that these two treasures were probably made by Lord Xie himself. As for how he could have such a skill at the age of a weak crown, Fang Jin felt that it was not difficult to understand, he was born with a long dream, Lord Xie was a real person blessed by a hundred gods.

Against such a person, Fang Jin didn't even dare to think about it, but Master Lu was not easy to mess with, and the Gu family was also involved, so he was in a dilemma. He also lamented in his heart, this Master Lu must have been blinded by lard, and people like Master Xie dare to offend, didn't he see the fate of the Chen family?

Fang Jin's surname has always been cowardly, although he was very afraid, but he was coerced and lured by Master Lu, and he reluctantly agreed. What Master Lu said also makes sense, no matter how much Master Xie has Su Hui, it is impossible for him to even know the doorway in the Yamen documents, right? Not to mention that Xie Dacai has been in office for more than two months, even the magistrate who has stayed for more than two years knows nothing about these things.

It was okay a few days ago, Lord Xie was a little skeptical, but he didn't take it seriously, Fang Jin was also lucky, thinking that this level might have passed like this. Although I can't live with Master Xie, what can I do for a little person like myself? Destiny is always in the hands of others. But......

Things are not quite right today, Lord Xie seems to have discovered what he has done a long time ago. At the beginning, when he was suddenly asked about the matter at home, Fang Jin's heart was tight, he was just making up an excuse that day, there were flaws, but he felt that a character like Lord Xie should disdain such a trivial matter, so he didn't worry.

But Lord Xie asked, and said that he would let people inquire, and at this time, Fang Jin was already in a state of confusion. By the time Xie Hong said that he had something to ask him, and then directly picked up the problematic account book, Fang Jin was already about to collapse. Of course, Xie Hong didn't pick it up directly, but in Fang Jin's eyes, Xie Hong just went straight to the point.

Every move Xie Hong made was based on the observed reaction, but Fang Jin didn't know it. So by the time Xie Hong pretended to review the account books in detail, Fang Jin was already on the verge of collapse, and his heart was full of rumors, it turned out that people with Su Hui could really get through everything, and he was scared from the bottom of his heart.

By the time Xie Hong finally suddenly let out a shock, Fang Jin couldn't hold it anymore, if it weren't for the fact that there was still a trace of clarity in his mind, he would have collapsed at that time. Fortunately, he still remembered Xie Hong's usual kindness and generosity, at least he was generous to a little person like him, and when he first reported to the Chen family, didn't Lord Xie care?

Because of this, he did not slump to the ground, but could still speak out and plead, hoping that Xie Hong would be generous again.

"My lord, the villain has always been loyal to assist, there is no merit and hard work, this time it is also Master Lu's coercion with the villain's small family, the villain is really forced to be helpless, please be gracious."

Old man Lu is really playing ghosts, but what exactly does he want to do? Glancing at Fang Jin, who was kneeling on the ground, Xie Hong knew that most of the things would fall on this person. He is a craftsman and not an immortal, no matter how carefully he observes, he can only know that Fang Jin has a ghost in his heart, and he can't guess the specific thoughts in his heart.

So Xie Hong asked coldly: "Fang Jin, since this official was appointed as the chief bookkeeper, he has always treated you well, but I didn't expect you to be so wolf-hearted and dare to cooperate with others to calculate this official." Remembering that you have always been diligent and loyal, this official will not care about you first, and you will not invite all the things. ”

"Yes, yes, actually, ......" Although Xie Hong's voice was fierce, Fang Jin was like a big man, and he was busy telling the truth of the matter.

Things were as Xie Hong expected, before Imperial Doctor Gu entered Beijing, he told the housekeeper to get back the lost face, and Steward Gu was also evil, so he sent someone to ask to see Wang Zhixian. The Gu family came to the county government but didn't see Wang Zhixian, he had already gone to practice calligraphy in retreat, Xie Hong felt that this reason was really strange, the head of a county could use such a reason to avoid work.

Well, this is the Ming Dynasty, Xie Hong tried to convince himself, and besides, those who were officials in later generations were not the same? This Wang Zhixian can still be regarded as diligent in learning.

Of course, the person who met was Master Lu, starting from the official book, this old man had been dissatisfied with Xie Hong for a long time, and now the two sides hit it off. Fang Jin also had no reservations this time, and told everything he knew, some things were not said by Master Lu, but he knew from other channels, and he also said them.
