Mizhi County is no longer as calm as it used to be. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Wu Fanhui of the Wu family not only became the head of the Mizhi County trial, but also became the head of the Yan'an Prefecture trial, which caused a huge repercussion in the county.
Wu Mianqing, the patriarch of the Wu family, was very happy, and this time the Li family, the Liu family, and the Wang family came to congratulate and sent congratulatory gifts, and Wu Mianqing also personally came forward to entertain the patriarchs of these families, and the He family also sent He Luoxuan to congratulate on behalf of the family.
The real protagonist Wu Fanhui is very low-key at the moment, he brought back a lot of gifts to his mother and two sisters, including silk materials, this kind of silk is made of clothes, suitable for wearing in summer, holding coarse cloth clothes is really hot, in addition to some red jewelry, these jewelry are used by girls to learn makeup, you must know that in this era, girls from large families, almost no makeup, and light makeup is the most popular.
Wu Fanhui was not able to stay at home for a long time, and it was already early July when he returned to Mizhi County, and in early August he was going to set off again to Xi'an Fucheng to participate in the hospital examination held on the fifth day of the first month of September.
Except for the day he returned home, Wu Fanhui participated in the celebration banquet presided over by the patriarch himself, and then all the banquets were rejected by stepping up study, Wu Mianqing of course supported it, you must know that the children who participated in the college examination are close to 1,000 people, and it is not a simple matter to stand out, even if Wu Fanhui is the head of the county examination and the government examination, then it is necessary to step up the review and prepare for the college examination.
Therefore, many of the banquets in the back were dealt with by Wu Mianqing and Wu Qingchao.
At this time, Wu Fanhui didn't know how to read books completely, he was planning something.
When he became the head of the government examination case and met the prefect, Wu Fanhui wanted to mention the matter of the He family, but the prefect did not take the initiative to bring it up, so he would not talk much, and later on the way home, he suddenly understood that since he was able to become the head of the government examination case, it showed that the attitude of the prefect was clear, and people did not need to say it in front of him.
Wu Fanhui didn't think about bringing down the He family immediately, this is unrealistic, the He family has three people, among which He Fangzhen is old and is the patriarch of the family, and his fifth brother He Fangkui is the master of the capital Honglu Temple from the eighth grade, and the sixth brother He Fangbing is also serving as a county in a county in Shanxi.
I'm afraid that Lu Weibiao, the magistrate of the county, will not really think about completely defeating the He family.
However, gradually cutting off the He family's power in Mizhi County and expanding the Wu family's power is something that can be started, and it must be done thoroughly, so that the He family can't talk about it.
At the beginning of July, although the hot season has passed, the autumn tiger is even worse, and the dry and sultry climate is very uncomfortable.
The ancestral hall of the Wu family, the wing room.
Wu Qingxiong, who was in Ma'anshan Village, knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly, and kept begging in his mouth.
The matter is very clear, the He family sent people to Ma'anshan Village, found the elder Wang Zhengui and Li Zheng Wu Qingxiong, and planned to frame Wu Fanhui, and this time the framing is fatal, it is actually said that Wu Fanhui colluded with bandits and rebellious peasants in a vain attempt to rebel, if this crime is confirmed, Wu Fanhui will be dead.
Wu Qingxiong said all the details carefully.
Wu Qingxiong is a member of the Wu family, and it is obviously unforgivable to do such a thing, but Wu Fanhui's idea is different, his goal is to weaken the power of the He family, as for Wang Zhengui and Wu Qingxiong and others, they are just small minions.
Of course, Wu Qingxiong will definitely have to pay a price for doing such a thing.
Wu Mianqing's face was pale, he knew everything that had happened, the He family was really ruthless, if it weren't for Wu Fanhui's keen analysis, things really couldn't be cleaned up, I am afraid that he Wu Mianqing would have to follow in.
Wu Mianqing has already discussed carefully with Wu Fanhui, he has long stopped seeing Wu Fanhui as a teenager, and so many things encountered by the family, if it were not for Wu Fanhui's planning, it would be impossible to clean it up.
Wu Mianqing agreed with Wu Fanhui's idea, don't work against the He family for the time being, the first task is to weaken the foundation of the He family in Mizhi County, and make the He family helpless.
"Wu Qingxiong, as a member of the Wu family, you are also the Li Zheng of Ma'anshan Village, and if you do such a thing as bullying teachers and destroying ancestors, you will not only have to accept the punishment of the family law, but also be sent to the government."
"I was wrong, patriarch, I accept the family law, you must not send me to the government...
Wu Qingxiong saw that there was no expression on the patriarch's face, and hurriedly spoke to Wu Qingchao and Wu Fanhui next to him.
"Brother Qingchao, little brother Fanhui, you have been in Ma'anshan Village for so many years, what I have done to you, you all know, for the sake of so many years, you will spare me...
Before anyone else could speak, Wu Fanhui spoke.
"Wu Qingxiong, you are my elder, but what you are doing is incomprehensible, at the beginning you and Wang Zhengui instructed Wu Guigui and others to arrest me, have you ever thought about the Wu family, and then you framed me for fornicating with bandits and colluding with peasant riots, have you ever thought about the Wu family, have you ever thought about any of these things, if you succeeded, my life would have long been gone."
Wu Fanhui said these words, which made Wu Qingxiong's body tremble on the kneeling on the ground, and made Wu Mianqing's face even more pale.
"Wu Qingxiong, what else do you have to say, I don't have that much patience."
At this time, Wu Qingxiong knew that he was kowtowing and could no longer speak.
Wu Fanhui looked at the patriarch Wu Mianqing, and Wu Mianqing also nodded slightly.
"Wu Qingxiong, so far, you have only one way out, maybe you can save your life."
Wu Qingxiong raised his head sharply, and he didn't have time to take the tears and snot on his face with his sleeve.
"Brother Fanhui, you say, no matter what it is, I will do it."
"Well, you have to do two things, the first thing is to take the initiative to report Wang Zhengui to the government, the reason is that Wang Zhengui colluded with bandits for personal gain, and as an old man, there is a suspicion of rebellion, you are just bewitched by Wang Zhengui and participated in it, and now you are willing to take the initiative to denounce it, and the second thing is that you take the initiative to report to the government that Wang Zhengui colluded with the He family with the intention of framing the children of the Wu family, you can say that you were coerced by Wang Zhengui, and someone in the He family was bewitched, and when you saw the money, you framed the children of your own family, almost caused a catastrophe... ”
Wu Qingxiong nodded again and again, now that he is asked to do these things, it is nothing at all.
"There is another thing, as the Lizheng of Ma'anshan Village, you have looted a lot of money over the years, I think you had better take out most of the money and hand it over to the family, otherwise the Wu family can also transfer it to the government for you, otherwise according to what you have committed, not only will you not be able to save your life, but your family will be implicated."
Wu Qingxiong's face was like ashes, at this time he no longer had the slightest ability to resist, according to what Wu Fanhui said, it was possible to save his life, otherwise it would be a sure thing to be beheaded.
After Wu Qingxiong was escorted away, Wu Qingchao spoke.
"Qian Jue, the He family has done this, how can we endure it, Wu Qingxiong and Wang Zhengui can prove that the He family can't refute it at all, and there is also the matter of Wu Qingtan, at this time, the family came forward and complained to the county government about the He family, they will definitely be punished."
Wu Mianqing shook his head slightly, did not speak, and looked at Wu Fanhui.
"Dad, this can't be done, the He family has a big business, and the internal and external forces are very strong, just relying on these things, it can't be overturned at all, so our main goal is not directly against the He family, Wu Qingxiong and Wang Zhengui, but a breakthrough, the He family has power in the county government, and there is also power in the middle of the elders and Li Zheng in the villages and towns, this time Wu Qingxiong sued the He family, Wang Zhengui can't hold back, he will speak, but the He family will never admit it, they will shirk in every possible way, and they will not admit it, After all, Wu Qingxiong and Wang Zhengui have no evidence in their hands, and there is no evidence for their empty words, He Fangzhen is very old and spicy in doing things, and he will never leave any evidence. ”
"Then even if Wu Qingxiong reports the He family to the government, it will have no effect."
"How can it not work, the He family shirks in every possible way, unwilling to stand up for Wang Zhengui and Wu Qingxiong, this is the opportunity, we must firmly grasp it, hype it up, so the reputation of the He family will suffer a heavy blow, even if they are clever tongues, they can't justify themselves, after all, the matter is very clear, fools can figure out the reason, in this case, the He family is bitter and can't say, I think the county will also secretly add fuel to the fire, the most hateful thing to be a person is to cross the river and tear down the bridge, is not willing to bear anything, such a person, or a family, who is willing to associate with it. ”
Wu Qingchao thought about it and slapped his thigh violently.
"This method is good, why didn't I think of it before."
Wu Fanhui couldn't laugh or cry.
"Dad, there was no chance before, if the He family did things steadily and did not show any flaws, in a short period of time, no one would be able to deal with them, but unfortunately they were anxious, it may be that He Fangzhen was old and a little confused, there were so many flaws, and he didn't think about the consequences of doing things, which made the magistrates angry, they were digging a pit for themselves, we just need to seize the opportunity and push them into the pit...
Wu Mianqing stood up.
"Qian Jue is right, no matter what, the strength of our Wu family is still not as good as the He family, even if it is the magistrate, there are some scruples, we are not in a hurry, He Fangzhen is really old, more and more dim, water drops wear stones, let's take our time, wait for He Fangzhen to have more problems, and eventually we will bring down the He family."
