Chapter 171: Convincing People with Virtue

Xiao Fan hurriedly retreated towards the gate of Wenhua Palace.

He retreated quickly, like a general who was accustomed to losing battles and fled, and he was so familiar with the movements of a thousand miles.

Running away is a survival skill, and it is a very important survival skill, if you can't learn it, you will be killed.

- For example, now, Zhu Yunwen has put forward an idea that puts himself in danger of dying.

When the minister of the Qin mission, he was ordered by the emperor to go to Bei'an to appease Zhu Di?

Xiao Fan was very strange, how could Zhu Yunwen's genius head think of himself.

Doesn't he know how big a bond he has formed with Zhu Di?

really went to Beiping, it is estimated that he will be killed by the killer sent by Zhu Di halfway, and it is too easy to cause an accident for the prince who is used to playing with intrigues and tricks, what about the minister? Everyone is ready to rebel, and they don't even pay attention to today, how can they care about killing a minister.

All in all, it is definitely an insidious idea to let himself die as a minister to go to Bei'an to appease Zhu Di, if the person who made this suggestion was Huang Zicheng, Xiao Fan would definitely beat him all over the ground without hesitation, but it was Zhu Yunwen who had no intention of putting forward this idea...... It's not right to beat the emperor, forget it, forgive him, don't make an example!

Xiao Fan walked quickly, for fear that Zhu Yunwen behind him would stop him, and he even considered whether to take a long vacation recently, before Zhu Yunwen dispelled the idea of letting him go to Beiping, it was best not to appear in his sight, so as not to wake up his sleeping memory...... On the other hand, now is also a good opportunity to take revenge on political enemies, please ask Huang Zicheng to walk around in front of Zhu Yunwen more recently, or let him chant more nonsense in front of Zhu Yunwen "The monarch, the boat, the people, the water, the water can carry the boat, and the ......porridge can also be cooked", Zhu Yunwen annoyed him, and he must have sent him to Beiping.

It's a good idea, borrowing a knife to kill people, and it's the best policy.

Xiao Fan couldn't help but be secretly proud of his high IQ......**************************************************** and under Xiao Fan's advocacy, Zhu Yunwen finally gave up Huang Zicheng's point of view and agreed to several suggestions from Xiao Fan.

It was a victory, but it was a small victory.

Xiao Fan could see that Huang Zicheng's words had too much impact on Zhu Yunwen, and a large part of the reason why he gave up Huang Zicheng's views was that he valued his friendship with himself very much, and he didn't want to let the friendship crack because of this matter.

For Xiao Fan, it is a good thing to have such a loving friend.

For the entire Ming Dynasty, it is sad to have such an emotional emperor.

The identification with feelings as a weight is what Xiao Fan does not want to see, cutting the feudal domain is a major national event, and it is a major national policy related to the rise and fall of the entire Ming Dynasty, not a time to pay attention to etiquette and politeness. A wise mind, a calm judgment, and a resolute style are the qualities that an emperor should have.

Obviously, Zhu Yunwen lacks too much.

Of course, there is also a dead old man who has plagued the Ming Dynasty,—— Huang Zicheng.

If this stubborn and pedantic old man does not disappear in the court, the Jianwen court will most likely go back to the original old path under the scourge of his loyalty, and history will repeat itself again, and Xiao Fan, the traverser, will also become the most incompetent and sloppy traverser in history...... Xiao Fan suddenly wanted to have a good talk with Huang Zicheng.

The thought was inexplicable, flashed through his mind, and even he himself was taken aback.

How can two incompatible political enemies talk? What to talk about? Standing and scolding the street?

But he had to talk about it, he still held on to the hope of what happened, hoping to persuade this stubborn old man, hoping that he could agree with his point of view, create less obstacles for himself, and win more time to deal with the upcoming rebellion of King Yan.

When Xiao Fan walked out of the Chengtian Gate of the palace, his hands were clenched into fists.

Let's talk about it, I'm a modern person, I know 800 years before, 800 years later, what do you care about with an ancient stupid old man? Communication, making the world a better place!

- What kind of advertising slogan is this?

No matter what the advertisement, this statement does make a lot of sense.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan ordered himself to laugh, although he hated Huang Zicheng so much, Xiao Fan still had to smile at him, smiling, it is a language, it knows no borders, big and small, and brings peace and goodwill to the world...... Practice, practice smiling more, practice from now on...... Walking across the Jinshui Bridge, on the left is the Yamen of Jinyi Wei Town, Xiao Fan's territory.

Xiao Fan stepped into the yamen with a reluctant smile, and the captain guarding the door hurriedly saluted, and when he straightened up, he saw the commander with a gloomy smile on his face, and everyone couldn't help but shiver, so they all held their breath and condensed, raised their heads and chests, and tried to fart with their stomachs.

- The commander said that this smiling face is so terrible, which means that he is in a very bad mood, and those who don't want to die are honest.

In addition to arranging supplementary manpower to fill the emperor's honor guard, there is also a thorough implementation of Xiao Fan's orders, and the secret scouts are constantly inserting and infiltrating to the north, Cao Yi has been so busy lately that he often doesn't even have time to sleep and nap.

Cao Yi hurriedly bowed down and saluted when he saw Xiao Fan, and when he was in the yamen, Cao Yi was still very knowledgeable about etiquette.

Xiao Fan had a reluctant smile on his face, smiling more ugly than crying, and he was thinking about how to talk to Huang Zicheng about cutting the domain, the relationship between the two was so unharmonious, there had to be a polite and harmonious opening, right?

Seeing Cao Yi saluting, Xiao Fan nodded absentmindedly, and then said, "Brother Cao, order a few people, come with me to Huang Zicheng's mansion." ”

Cao Yi suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and he was very puzzled in his heart, Brother Xiao and the surnamed Huang have always been at odds, why did he go to his house if he had nothing to do?

Then Cao Yi saw Xiao Fan's reluctant and hypocritical smile.

This smile was seen in Cao Yi's eyes, and it was immediately understood as a chilling sneer.

Cao Yi immediately understood, Huang Zicheng who was said by the dog must have touched Brother Xiao's moldy head again!

Cao Yi is a guy who doesn't help his relatives, and when he heard this, he sneered a few times, clenched his fists at Xiao Fan, and said murderously: "Yes!" ”

Xiao Fan was thinking about things in his head, and he didn't pay attention to Cao Yi's expression, nodded absentmindedly, and turned around and walked outside the yamen.

Cao Yi's face was hideous, and he immediately ordered more than a dozen henchmen and lieutenants, and the group wore flying fish suits, carried embroidered spring knives, and followed Xiao Fan who was smiling with murderous spirits, silent and solemn, everyone's faces were iron-blue, and they walked through the streets with heavy footsteps, and the people everywhere they passed were panicked and avoided, just like encountering devils who entered the village, and they were busy hiding food and their daughters.

Xiao Fan didn't notice this, he was thinking about how to talk to Old Man Huang, what reason to use to persuade him to give up his stupid strategy of cutting the domain, and let him understand that his self-righteous political opinions were actually shit, and they were stinking shit......*************************************************** and a group of more than a dozen people had two completely different thoughts, Came to the outside of Huang Zicheng's mansion at the entrance of Pearl Street in the west of the city.

Xiao Fan stood in the distance outside the gate of the Yellow Mansion, his hands slightly raised to the sky, he was still in a state of thinking, the smile on his face kept hanging, and after the already reluctant smile was maintained for a long time, it became stiffer and more ugly.

Knocking on the door and passing on such a trivial matter naturally did not need Xiao Fan to do it himself, and before he said anything, a lieutenant walked to the gate of the Huangfu and slammed the side door.

Soon, the side door opened, and an old porter stuck his head out and looked at the captain curiously.

The captain said fiercely: "Look at what to see! Jinyi Wei is on an errand! ”

The old man in the porter was frightened, and then looked at the group of brocade guards outside the door with a vicious expression like a mold printed, the old man's face suddenly turned pale, and he couldn't stop swinging,—— what good thing can be done by a group of brocade guards this year?

The old man didn't say a word, turned around and ran to the inner courtyard of the house, probably to report to Huang Zicheng.

The lieutenant was not polite, kicked the side door open, and then bowed down to Xiao Fan and said, "My lord, please come in." ”

Xiao Fan finally came back to his senses from his state of thinking at this time.

He looked around blankly and said in surprise, "Huh? Brother Cao, why did you call so many people? ”

Then he looked at the side door of Huangfu Cave again, and said in surprise: "The door is actually open?" Lao Huang is so polite today? He doesn't hate me about nude photos? ”

Everyone: "............"

Scratching his head very incomprehensibly, Xiao Fan said: "Forget it, let's go in first......"

Raised his feet and walked a few steps, and just when he stepped into the side door, Xiao Fan suddenly remembered something, and immediately squeezed out an ugly smile, and then turned back to the brocade guards and said, "You all smile, be a man, be polite!" Don't let people say that our Jinyi Wei is like a killing star descending to earth, smile! All smiles! Convince people with virtue! ”

The corners of Cao Yi's mouth twitched, and he sneered: "Don't worry, my lord, we will definitely 'convince people with virtue'!" ”

Everyone heard the murderous spirit in Cao Yi's tone, so they squeezed out a hideous and vicious smile, just like a ghost in front of the throne of Hades, laughing so terrifying...... Xiao Fan frowned and looked around, puzzled: "Your smile ......"

"Your Excellency, please come in."

"Oh...... All right. ”

Everyone entered the Huang Mansion, and the front yard of the mansion was silent, and the subordinates of the Huang Mansion were so frightened that they hid when they saw the Jinyi Guard coming.

Xiao Fan looked left and right, and saw that the front yard was silent, and half of the figure was gone, and he couldn't help but be disdainful, although he had a kind smile on his face, he muttered in a low voice: "You see, Lao Huang's house is big, but there is no trace of home, it is as quiet as a haunted, no wonder this old guy is yin and yang in the court all day long, it turns out that there is a problem with the feng shui of his family......"

Everyone echoed: "Exactly! ”

Cao Yi stood behind Xiao Fan, raised his right hand and clenched his fist, and then his five fingers suddenly opened.

When the brocade guards saw this gesture, they immediately understood, and more than a dozen people quickly scattered in all directions to search.

After a while, everyone reported that there was no trace of Huang Zicheng in the front yard.

Xiao Fan was strange for a while: "Why are you searching other people's homes?" It's so rude......"

At this time, under a peach tree on the left side of the front yard, a small yellow dog barked at everyone a few times.

Cao Yi couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this dog, and sneered: "If you can run, the monk can't run the temple, Lao Huang is gone, isn't Xiao Huang still here?" ”

Without waiting for Xiao Fan to react, Cao Yi rushed forward with an arrow step, picked up the little yellow dog with one hand, and asked viciously: "Boy! Where's your dad? ”

Xiao Fan was dumbfounded: "............"

........................, "Brother Cao, I'm asking you, can we be polite?" Let all the brethren return, and let them not move without My commandment." We're not here to raid the house......" Xiao Fan said weakly.

Cao Yi nodded heavily, and a look of realization flashed in his eyes. - Brother Xiao is planning to salute first and then soldier, yes, the eldest husband is happy to be revenge, as it should be!

Xiao Fan naturally didn't know that Cao Yi had misunderstood what he meant, and was about to say a few more words, but he saw a large group of people suddenly coming out of the front hall of the Huang Mansion, surrounded by the people under the Huang Mansion, Huang Zicheng was wearing a dark Confucian shirt, his long beard was windless, and he walked towards Xiao Fan with anger on his face.

"The old man is here! Xiao Fan, you thief, took so many people to trespass into the palace of the minister, the old man asked you, are you here to take the old man? As long as you have the holy decree of today, the old man will be caught, and there is no other word! If there is no holy decree, even if the old man fights for this old life, he will sue you for trespassing in the Golden Palace! ”

Huang Zicheng stood in front of Xiao Fan with righteousness, as sacred and inviolable as a god descending from heaven.

"Brother Guanxi......" Xiao Fan squeezed out a smile that he had practiced for a long time, and then saw that Huang Zicheng's face was wrong, and hurriedly changed his words: "Mr. Huang, the student is visiting today, there is no malicious intent, please don't misunderstand......

After speaking, Xiao Fan straightened his clothes and bowed to Huang Zicheng with a solemn expression.

Although Xiao Fan has been appointed as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he used to be a waiter in the East Palace, and he and Huang Zicheng still have the status of teachers and students, and this ceremony is also in line with the rules.

Although he was reluctant in his heart, Xiao Fan still did a very thoughtful job of etiquette. In order to unify the understanding of cutting the feudal domain, why not lower the posture a little?

Seeing that Xiao Fan's attitude was so respectful, Huang Zicheng couldn't help but look at Xiao Fan deeply in disbelief, seeing that the smile on Xiao Fan's face was quite sincere, not like he was looking for trouble, Huang Zicheng snorted coldly, but his face softened slightly.

Getting along with others is like looking in a mirror, if you smile in the mirror, the person in the mirror will naturally smile at you.

Huang Zicheng swept behind Xiao Fan dissatisfied, and said coldly: "You brought so many people to the old man's mansion, is this a visit or a threat?" ”

"Visit, it's definitely a ......visit," Xiao Fan smiled, swept behind him, and said, "...... Mr. Huang, just think they're soy sauce and ignore them. ”

Stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, Huang Zicheng couldn't wait to peel off Xiao Fan's skin and bones, but people put their posture so low and their attitude so respectful, Huang Zicheng, who had read the sage books, was naturally inconvenient to drive Xiao Fan out, which also seemed too intolerant of elegance.

So Huang Zicheng had no choice but to reluctantly lead Xiao Fan into the front hall.

Cao Yi and a group of brocade guards stood under the steps outside the front hall, standing one by one with their chests crossed, like the angry King Kong offered in the temple, majestic and majestic, without squinting.

This is Xiao Fan's first time entering the Yellow Mansion, and it is also the first time he has entered the front hall of the Yellow Mansion, but this time he came with a little weakness.

Xiao Fan's surname is not bad, he still remembers that he instructed Cao Yi to throw feces at Huangfu with a stone-throwing cart before, and he threw it twice, now that he thinks about it, he is really a bit of a bully...... The two of them sat down as guests, and the servants served tea and gently rested it on the coffee table on Xiao Fan's left hand.

Huang Zicheng snorted heavily and said, "If Lord Xiao has anything to say, you might as well get straight to the point, let's leave quickly when you are finished, the old man is small, I am afraid that I have wronged you, the great god." ”

Xiao Fan retracted his gaze at the furnishings in the front hall, and smiled when he heard the words: "Mr. is serious, the students are coming here with sincerity, why should Mr. speak ill?" Regardless of the teacher-student relationship between you and me, at least we are both ministers of the same palace, Mr. should not hesitate to give a little harmony, right? ”

When Huang Zicheng heard this, he was furious, and sneered sharply: "Kind? Xiao Fan, are you worthy of talking about peace with the old man? When you drew the appearance of the old man on the picture of the Spring Palace, did you think about the word 'harmony'? You bad old man I have a clear name, and even the history books have recorded this ugly thing, have you ever thought about the word 'harmony'? Xiao Fan, you are satisfied, you have succeeded, the old man's reputation has been completely defeated by you, and now you proudly break into the old man's house with the brocade guard and talk about 'harmony' with the old man? ”

"Smack!" Huang Zicheng slapped the table hard, stood up and said loudly: "Are you a fool to be an old man?" Cry when you whip you, and laugh when you give a candy? ”

Xiao Fan's expression remained unchanged, he still kept smiling, and said slowly: "Mr. Huang, the grievance between you and me is a personal grudge, you can take revenge if you have the ability, the student doesn't mind you drawing my appearance on the Spring Palace map, there is nothing to be ashamed of...... The student is here to discuss state affairs with Mr. ”

Huang Zicheng was blocked by Xiao Fan's words, his expression couldn't help but suffocate, and he sat back again, and said angrily: "You are a yellow-mouthed child, relying on the lawlessness of the Son of Heaven's favor to you, what state affairs do you know?" What state affairs do you want to discuss with the old man? ”

Xiao Fan smiled and said word by word: "I want to discuss the matter of cutting the feudal domain with Mr. ”

Huang Zicheng's expression was solemn, and he said coldly: "Cutting the domain? The matter of cutting the feudal domain should be discussed in the golden hall of the court, before the Son of Heaven drove the king, what did you discuss at the old man's house? ”

"Mr. Huang's suggestion to cut the feudal domain, the Son of Heaven has told me, to be honest, I don't agree with it, so I came here to ...... today."

Before he finished speaking, Huang Zicheng jumped up like a cat with his tail stepped on, and said angrily: "You don't agree, what do you disagree with?" Who do you disagree? Are you worthy to talk to the old man about state affairs? Huangkou children don't know what to say! Is it that you are qualified to talk about major national affairs? ”

Huang Zicheng is very concerned about cutting the domain, when Zhu Yunwen was established as the emperor's grandson, he began to ponder the cutting of the domain, the suggestions he made to Zhu Yunwen are the result of his thinking for a few years, he thinks that he is very flawless, and after several years of hard work was completely denied by a young man, how could Huang Zicheng not be angry?

After Huang Zicheng finished speaking, he was still angry, and the sleeves of his robe swept the table beside him fiercely, and a delicate green tea cup on the table was swept to the ground by his sleeve, making a crisp sound.

The front hall was arguing, but Cao Yi, who was standing outside the front hall, was concerned.

Hearing the crisp sound of the tea cup breaking in the hall, Cao Yi couldn't help but jump his eyebrows.

Drop the cup? Brother Xiao smashed the cup? It seems that their negotiations broke down!

At that moment, Cao Yi no longer hesitated, rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Brothers, do it!" ”

With a hula, more than a dozen Jinyi lieutenants who were standing quietly outside the hall moved at the same time, and everyone looked hideous one by one, and rushed to the front hall with murderous aura, their eyes were bloodshot, like a group of crazy bulls, and rushed towards Huang Zicheng.

The change happened too suddenly, Huang Zicheng and Xiao Fan were shocked, Leng Leng watched the captains in Jinyi rush in like crazy, the two of them were frightened and their legs weakened, and they exclaimed in unison: "Shenma situation? ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a bang, and Huang Zicheng was drowned in the crowd of Jinyi captains, and then only the crackling fists and feet were heard, and Huang Zicheng's screams of grief and indignation were inexplicably confused...... Xiao Fan was stunned, watching the tragedy happen like a dead fish, and his mind was blank.

Cao Yi and their ...... What's going on today? I didn't give the order...... The crackling sound of fists and feet woke up Xiao Fan, and he suddenly felt a thrill, hurriedly rushed forward, hurriedly separated the people who were being violent against Huang Zicheng, and shouted: "Stop! Stop the! Who told you to do it? ”

Everyone was beating happily, and in the confusion, they heard Xiao Fan shouting to stop, and everyone didn't dare to continue, so they stopped one after another.

The surrounding crowd dispersed, revealing Huang Zicheng lying on the ground mourning and moaning in the middle of the front hall.

Seeing this, Xiao Fan immediately stepped forward to pick up his head, and exclaimed sadly: "Mr. Huang, you ...... You okay? ”

Huang Zicheng was beaten and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, he tried to open his eyes, grabbed Xiao Fan's sleeve with old tears, and said weakly: "Xiao Fan...... You, you tell me honestly, you ...... today Did you really come to visit me? ”

Xiao Fan nodded hurriedly and said sincerely: "It's really here to visit you!" I swear I'm going to convince people with virtue......"

Huang Zicheng whimpered, and moaned as if crying and laughing: "...... Convince people with virtue? ”

"Yes!"

Huang Zicheng twitched all over, rolled his eyes, and fainted angrily.
