Chapter 59: Favor
Waiting in the wing room for nearly an hour, Wu Fanhui was really a little crazy, from the time he entered the mansion, until he was close to the unitary time, he still ate millet porridge and pancakes in the morning, and he was already hungry at the moment, but he had to bow his head under the eaves, he could only dry in the mansion, unable to eat, as for tea, he didn't dare to drink it at all, this thing was drunk, and the feeling of hunger was even worse.

For the first time, I really experienced the feeling of hunger, although in the first month of crossing, I couldn't eat enough every day, but Wu Fanhui, who had just crossed, mainly paid attention to everything in the outside world, and didn't pay special attention to the things that didn't get enough to eat.
Today is forced to starve, the taste is indeed uncomfortable, people are iron rice and steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic.
There was a coughing sound outside the wing, and Wu Fanhui quickly stood up and tidied up his clothes slightly.
A middle-aged man wearing a four-grade official uniform entered the wing, this person was slightly fat, and had a kind of momentum that was not angry and arrogant.
"Wu Fanhui of Mizhi County, the expression word is Qianjue, and I have seen the prefect."
Ma Mao looked at Wu Fanhui and didn't speak immediately.
This is a young man with a childish face, but a pair of eyes are very special, calm as a deep pool, and this young man shows an attitude that is neither arrogant nor humble, calm and calm, without the slightest fear.
Ma Mao didn't know how many young men he had seen who had passed the government exam, most of them were excited and fearful, and before he could speak, his body trembled, and it was difficult to control himself, and when he spoke, some people even cried bitterly.
The young man in front of him had a somewhat special first impression on Ma Maocai.
"Wu Fanhui, you are a candidate for this government examination, the government examination is approaching, this official should not have seen you, but as the head of the Mizhi County examination, you have been lost in words and deeds, and you are not qualified to participate in the government examination, this official has to be cautious, so I want to see you."
"Qian Jue understands that he is willing to accept the review, and those who are clear are self-turbid."
Ma Mao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, thinking that when he said these words, the young man in front of him would be in a hurry to justify, and even lose his temper, but he didn't expect to be so calm, and his interest immediately rose.
"Wu Fanhui, you must know that this matter is very serious, deceiving the government, concealing stains, if it is verified to be true, the official will put you in prison and wait for distribution, not only can you not participate in this government examination, but also you are not qualified to participate in any future examinations."
"Qian Jue understands."
"Well, if you have any debt in terms of virtue, say it yourself, and the official can deal with it at his discretion."
"My lord, Qian Jue asked himself, I don't dare to say that Bingqing is jade, but I really don't owe anything in terms of virtue, otherwise it would be impossible to become the head of the county trial case in Mizhi County."
Ma Maocai was stunned again, Wu Fanhui's answer can be said to be leaky, this is also the actual situation, generally speaking, the review of candidates was carried out before the county examination, and the candidates who can pass the county examination are more rigorously reviewed, not to mention the head of the county examination.
After a little muttering, Ma Mao decided to cut to the topic, he wanted to see if this Wu Fanhui would always be so calm, the front was just a general talk, and nothing substantive was involved.
There is no need to ask about other aspects, Lu Weibiao's letter is very clear.
"This official asks you, can you know Wu Guigui, Wang Baofu and Wang Decai."
"I know, Wu Guigui, Wang Baofu and Wang Decai are all from Ma'anshan Village, Mizhi County, Qian Jue has lived in Ma'anshan Village since he was a child, and he is quite familiar with them."
"It is known that these three people are named villagers of Ma'anshan Village, but they are actually bandits, and even colluded with displaced people with the intention of rebelling."
"Qian Jue doesn't know."
"How can you not know that Wu Guigui, Wang Baofu and Wang Decai, the first lunar month once came to your house to pay New Year's greetings, and someone confirmed that you are the mastermind behind them, you instructed them to do misdeeds, harm the people, and seek ill-gotten gains, and you used these ill-gotten gains to buy houses in the county town, greedy for pleasure, and the official also wants to ask you, where did the Tugu Hun horse come from."
Faced with this sudden problem, Wu Fanhui still lacked sufficient preparation, but he was a person who had seen the world, and he used more interrogation methods before crossing over.
Without much hesitation, Wu Fanhui took out the documents drawn by Wu Guigui and others from his arms.
"My lord, Wu Guigui and others do evil, there is indeed a mastermind behind it, but this person is not Qian Jue, this document is for your Excellency to see, Wu Guigui and others went to Qian Jue's house in the first month to pay New Year's greetings, Qian Jue persuaded them to abandon evil and follow good, and put them into the army to serve the court, if you don't believe it, send a person to investigate, and everything will come out."
Ma Mao quickly read the documents, and in his heart, he understood everything, because the people who sued Wu Fanhui were the elders Wang Zhengui and Li Zheng Wu Qingxiong of Ma'anshan Village, as for why the two really evil people framed Wu Fanhui, the reason is also very simple, the He family has such a great ability in Mizhi County, and they can't take down the old man and Li Zheng.
But he won't show it in front of Wu Fanhui.
"Tell me what's going on with Tuyuhun Horse."
There are very few Tuyuhun horses, they are generally military horses, Wu Fanhui is just a weak-crowned boy, and it is indeed strange that he suddenly has a Tuyuhun horse, and this Tuyuhun horse is now in the He family.
Qian Jue was studying in the school at the time, taking advantage of the school holiday for three days back to Ma'anshan Village, the road met a team of people, it seemed to be a caravan, the leader was an old man, but also a scholar, Qian Jue talked with him, there was half a day, delayed the trip home, the leader talked about the rise, said that it was a delay in Qian Jue's time to go home, presented a Tugu Hun horse, and said that when he met Qian Jue in the day, Qian Jue gave him a return far from a Tugu Hun horse, Qian Jue refused to accept, the leader laughed and left, Left behind the Tuyuhun horse. ”
"Later, Qian Jue returned to Mizhi County with Tuyu Hun Ma, and the housekeeper of the He family in the county found Qian Jue and bought Qian Jue's Tugu Hun Ma for thirty taels of silver and a house."
In the process of Wu Fanhui's narration, his expression was calm, and even revealed a trace of horror, obviously thinking that a Tuyuhun horse was too precious.
Ma Maocai kept staring at Wu Fanhui.
Wu Fanhui's encounter was a little too peculiar, but Ma Mao chose to believe it, because in a short conversation, he had already noticed that this young man was not ordinary, Lu Weibiao, the magistrate of Mizhi County, found that he was a talent, and praised him in the letter, the He family desperately tried to calculate this young man, and obviously felt his extraordinary ability, as for the person who led the caravan, whether it was a scholar or some other identity, he must have appreciated his ability, and the matter of giving the sword to the hero still exists.
The doubts in Ma Maocai's heart disappeared completely.
On the contrary, he had a worse opinion of the He family in his heart.
"Wu Fanhui, it seems that someone has framed you, I don't know how you think you should punish these framed people."
When the prefect said this, Wu Fanhui was also relieved, his palms were already sweating, you must know that this Tugu Hun Ma is the most difficult thing to explain.
"Qian Jue didn't think about these things for the time being, the government test is imminent, and all Qian Jue thinks about is the government test."
"I'll ask you what you think should be done."
"Of course, it is a severe punishment, if it is an unintentional mistake, it should be reprimanded, if it is intentional, it is sinister and unforgivable, and it should be punished in accordance with the "Da Ming Law".
Ma Maocai couldn't help nodding slightly, from beginning to end, Wu Fanhui's answer was calm, the evidence he provided was clear, no matter who it was, it was easy to judge such a case.
Like talented people, this is a common problem of officials at all levels, and Ma Maocai is no exception, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
"Okay, Wu Fanhui, go and prepare for the government exam, this is your test guide."
After Wu Fanhui took the test, he bowed to the prefect.
"My lord, Qian Jue has another letter here, which was specially written by the teacher, informing the students that after they arrive at the mansion, they will be presented to the prefect."
Ma Mao took the letter and couldn't help but ask.
"Since you have Lord Lu's letter, why didn't you take it out just now?"
"Master Lu is the mentor of the students, the prefect asked Qian Jue, Qian Jue should prove his innocence, he did not dare to implicate the teacher, now explain everything clearly, and should also submit the letter of the teacher."
Ma Maocai's hand shook slightly, and the impression left on him by these few words was by no means ordinary.
After taking a closer look at Wu Fanhui, Ma Mao waved his hand and picked up the teacup.
Leaving the mansion, the sky had already darkened, Wu Fanhui didn't have time to be happy, he rushed in the direction of the inn, his face could not see whether he was happy or sad, hurry back to the inn to eat, it became his first priority, at this moment he felt that he could swallow a cow.
After eating three pancakes and two bowls of millet porridge, Wu Fanhui exhaled a big breath, and the taste of being full was really wonderful.
It was not until this time that he began to recall everything in the mansion wing, there is no doubt that he has won the trust of the prefect, and left a good impression, for this meeting, Wu Fanhui does not know how long he will think, when he set off from Mizhi County, he is constantly planning, it should be said that the play is still very good.
However, Wu Fanhui's face is still a little gloomy, that is the matter of Wu Guigui and others mentioned by the prefect, there is no need to guess, this matter must have been done by Wang Zhengui and Wu Qingxiong, although the He family has great powers, it is impossible to know the affairs of Wu Guigui and others, and the reason for this is clear, that is, Wang Zhengui and Wu Qingxiong.
In fact, Wu Qingxiong is still his elder Wu Fanhui, and there are many people in the Wu family scattered in Ma'anshan Village.
Wu Fanhui's mouth whispered, he would not let go of Wang Zhengui and Wu Qingxiong, as for the way to deal with it, it was very simple, the testimony of Wu Guigui and others was enough to kill the two of them, and he Wu Fanhui not only wanted the lives of the two people, but also the money of the two families.
