Although they are all officials in Zhejiang, Lu Bo, as a military general, has to train people and horses in peacetime, and lead troops to fight in wartime, and there are not many times when they can meet, so Tang Shen proposed to leave him for a meal and reminisce about the old days. Lu Bo looked embarrassed and said: "Lord Tang, Lu has long coveted the wine of the adult's family, but now several general soldiers are locked up, and the military affairs are urgent, so no one can keep an eye on them." ”

Tang Shen nodded, laughing at himself, "It's my negligence, Brother Lu hurry back to the barracks, and be sure to guard against a sneak attack by the Japanese invaders." ”

"I'll save it."

Lu Bo hugged his fists and said goodbye, Tang Shen looked back at his son, then at Wang Chen, and sighed: "Si Zhigong, yes, General Lu never asks for help, he is looking for you, but there is a difficulty." Others don't know that Yu Dayou and Yu Zongbing are famous. That's a tiger in the army, over the years of the anti-Japanese war has made many achievements, and the ethics are outstanding, it is absolutely impossible to be greedy for military salaries, if even he is arrested, who else in the southeast can resist the Japanese invaders? ”

What Dad said was exactly what Tang Yi was worried about.

Everything is too much, Zhang Jing can withstand the pressure of the strict party, thoroughly investigate the case, and find out the scum, Tang Yi is hands and feet in favor. But now, not to mention the chaos in the officialdom and localities, and even the army has an accident, which greatly exceeds Tang Yi's expectations......

"Okay, what your dad said makes sense!" Wang Chen clenched his fists, stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "The overall situation in the southeast is created by the old man, I can't let Zhang Jing make trouble, I want to see him!" ”

Tang Yi asked solemnly: "You have always seen Zhang Jing, what do you want to say?" ”

"How?" Wang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Let's just say that the southeast can't be chaotic, let's just say that although the old man is injured, his life is okay after all, and the overall situation is the most important!" ”

"No way!" Tang Yi shook his head decisively, "You always listen to me." Not only can you not say it, but you should also write to the court as soon as possible, saying that your body has recovered and requesting a transfer. ”

Wang Chen was stunned for a moment, twisted his eyebrows and said angrily: "Okay, the old man does things well from the beginning to the end." Never be a deserter halfway! Tang Shen also said: "Okay, personal grievances are small, and the overall situation in the southeast is big!" ”

Seeing that both of them didn't understand, Tang Yi smiled and said, "Uncle going to intercede will only make things worse, don't forget your identity." ”

Identity?

Wang Chen was still in Chileng, but Tang Shen figured it out, and said ashamedly: "That's right, the Taicang Wang family." After thousands of years in the southeast, there are contacts with major families, if you come forward, it will only make Zhang Jing mistakenly think that it is a family to come forward, once the old master has a prejudice, it is useless to say anything. ”

After explaining, Wang Chen finally calmed down, but in fact, it was not just his identity. Zhang Jing handled the case, and he was the bitter master. It doesn't make sense at all that the plaintiff is pulling the judge back.

"Okay, since the old man is not suitable, who do you think can do it?"

"Who? Except for my master, no one else is enough! Tang Yi stood up with a smile and said, "I'll go and ask Master." ”

……

Tang Yi got up and left the Governor's Palace. Hurriedly arrived at Qinchaxingyuan, the soldiers guarding the gate had already known Tang Yi, and hurriedly trotted over to pick up Tang Yi's little donkey.

"Don't worry, Childe, good grass and good fodder are fed. Crack five more eggs. ”

Tang Yi nodded with satisfaction, took out a piece of broken silver, which looked like two or three taels, and stuffed it into the soldier's hand, and the other party took it happily. Tang Yi doesn't think this is any kind of bribery, just buy a peace of mind, don't pay a little, why let the family do their best.

The soldier put away the silver and said in a low voice: "Childe, it's a bit unfortunate, Zhang Butang came just now and is chatting with adults, why don't you wait for a while?" ”

"Zhang Butang?"

Tang Yi was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll just wait." Tang Yi came to the small living room, and as soon as he sat down, he sent everyone out. He couldn't wait to hear what Zhang Jing would say. Quietly opened the window and jumped out with ease. Qincha's Xingyuan was originally a salt merchant's villa, the design was very exquisite, the flower hall was surrounded by corridors, Tang Yi stepped on the railing, carefully went around the back of the main hall, held his breath, and listened.

I heard two voices coming from inside, it was the teacher and Zhang Jing.

"Jing Chuan, what does the old man mean here, do you know?"

Tang Shunzhi's extremely magnetic voice sounded, "I don't know." ”

"Jingchuan, the old man arrived in Zhejiang a few days ago, but what he found can only be described in four words: shocking!" Zhang Jing knocked on the table and shouted loudly: "From top to bottom, no one is not greedy, no official is not greedy." From the yamen to the army, from the officialdom to the localities, there is filth everywhere and the people's hearts are corrupted. If you don't use thunderbolt means to get rid of the tumor, there will be no peace in the troubles of the Japanese and the Ming Dynasty, and not only that, but the Ming court will also never have peace. ”

Zhang Jing looked at Tang Shunzhi with hope, and said enthusiastically: "Jing Chuan, the old man has found a considerable amount of criminal evidence, pointing directly at the traitor Yan Song. The old man has already written to Li Dazai, if you can write a letter to Xu Gelao, they will join forces in the imperial court, we will cooperate in Jiangnan, destroy the traitorous party, eliminate the villains, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment, isn't this exactly the pursuit of your Xinxue disciples? ”

A word full of encouragement, in the past, even if Tang Shunzhi disagreed, he didn't know how to refute it, but now he is different.

"Banzhou Gong, I don't dare to agree. As you said, all kinds of diseases occur in Zhejiang, and if it is not too much, it will cause a catastrophe. At this time, it is necessary to be cautious and slow to recuperate, if you blindly use the medicine of the tiger and wolf, I am afraid that you will not be able to bear it. ”

The joy on Zhang Jing's face disappeared instantly, replaced by strong questioning, the old man's pupils constricted, and he asked sharply: "Jing Chuan, have you been bribed by the Yan Party?" ”

Tang Shunzhi's face sank, and he said solemnly: "Tang has acted all his life, but I want to be worthy of my heart, no one can buy me!" ”

"Good!" Zhang Jingyi slapped the table and asked, "The old man asked you, is it true that officialdom is greedy for ink, and should corrupt officials be killed?" ”

"Of course you should!" Tang Shunzhi said without hesitation.

"Should the gentry violate the ancestral system, go to sea privately, collude with the Japanese and sell intelligence, should they be killed?"

"Deserve to be killed!"

"Also, the generals in the army are greedy for food and food, and they fill their pockets. The old man investigated, except for Lu Bo, the rest were corrupt. Among them, Yu Dayou is the only one. The silver taels of greedy ink were used to buy fine works and investigate the situation of the Japanese robbers. The old man has already let Yu Dayou go, and the rest of the people are insatiable, crazy, and exhausted. Buy little wives everywhere. Yue Wumu said that civil officials do not love money, and military generals do not hesitate to die. Can you expect such a group of rice buckets to be wasted to wipe out the Japanese invaders? Shouldn't it be punished severely? ”

continued to question, not to mention Tang Shunzhi in the house, even Tang Yi outside had a fever on his face, and almost slapped Zhang Jing. This old man doesn't look bad at all, let alone killing, even if it is ten thousand Lingchi. It's up to the teacher to answer!

In the past, he was always pushed out by Tang Shunzhi as a shield. This time it was the teacher's turn to be embarrassed, Tang Yi actually had a bad taste and listened with his ears pricked up.

After being silent for a long time, Tang Yi could hear his heartbeat.

Tang Shunzhi slowly stood up and stood with his hands in his hands.

"Banzhou Gong, what you said is right, but can you tell Zaixia, after killing someone. Can the officialdom become incorruptible, and the soldiers can use their lives? ”

Faced with questioning. Zhang Jing is an old fritter who has been up and down for decades, so naturally he can't say anything with a bad conscience, so he can only sigh: "Even if it can't be completely removed, it's always a good thing to have fewer moths and more convergence, right?" ”

Tang Shunzhi shook his head again. Sitting next to Zhang Jing, he said earnestly: "Banzhou Gong, the Japanese will make trouble like this, it is definitely a disadvantage for decades, or even hundreds of years. Water has a source, trees have roots, and today, the court and the people can't withstand the great changes like washing the intestines and purifying the stomach. Only slowly and slowly, the water grinding work, can naturally be resolved, and in a hurry, I am afraid that I will be burdened. ”

Tang Shunzhi tried his best to carefully consider the words and sentences, not to anger the old master, but Zhang Jing still had a beard after hearing it, stretched out his finger, pointed at Tang Shunzhi and sneered.

"Well, that's unexpected! Tang Jingchuan, who is famous all over the world, has also become an old fritter in officialdom. What does it mean to slowly figure it out, isn't it just to follow the path and compromise it? You know, those people aren't people at all, they're ghosts! It's a demon! For every day they live, the people and soldiers will suffer one more day, and the people will die one more day! The old man is over the age of six, and he has long put life and death out of the way, and when he came to Zhejiang, he wanted to fight for his life and drain his blood. Since you, Tang Jingchuan, have chosen to compromise, even if the old man sees the wrong person! Leave! ”

Without speculating for more than half a sentence, Zhang Jing flicked his sleeves and didn't look back, so he walked outside. Tang Shunzhi got up to send him off, and the old man had disappeared in front of him.

Tang Shunzhi looked at the back, suddenly a depression, shook his head and walked back, he just entered the house, but found a person sitting on the Taishi chair, holding a teapot in one hand and a snack in the other, eating and drinking, very happy!

……

"Isn't it very comfortable to see that the teacher was robbed?"

"Yes, hungry—no, no!" Tang Yi hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "Master forgives the sin, the disciple is really in a hurry and didn't eat." ”

"Humph!" Tang Shunzhi snorted, sat down, and sighed, "Did you hear the conversation just now?" ”

"Ah, hear a little."

"Are you disappointed in Master?" Tang Shunzhi smiled self-deprecatingly.

Tang Yi said with a straight face: "Master, disciples have always been proud of your old age!" ”

"Less sycophants." Tang Shunzhi said: "What do you think of Zhang Jing and Zhang Butang? ”

"Master Zhang is a good person and a good official, but he doesn't understand the southeast."

"I don't understand, how can I talk about it?"

Tang Yi said: "I have seen Zhang Butang's resume, he served as the magistrate of the county, with outstanding political achievements, and when he entered Beijing to serve as a clerk, he successively impeached Jin Xianmin, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Pan Yuan, the governor of Henan, and even Jinyiwei was impeached by him. In the sixteenth year of Jiajing, the old master served as the governor of Liangguang, and successively quelled the rebellion of the Yao people, sent an envoy to Annan, eliminated the disaster of war, and made outstanding military achievements. ”

"That's right, Zhang Butang is indeed a hero in the world."

"But this old man has been in the southwest for too long, he only knows how to use the strong, but he doesn't understand that no matter how fierce and cunning Tusi is, it can't compare to the gentry who cling to the bureaucratic system.
