Chapter 678: A Deal
"You're, big brother?" Fang Junhe never expected that he would meet his eldest brother here.
"Third child, it's really you, I thought you were long gone?" The two lines of old tears of excitement came down from the Fang family boss.
Fang Junhe's face darkened with embarrassment, he hadn't gone home for twenty years, and he almost forgot that he still had a home, and that he still had parents and relatives at home.
Back then, he left home to take the exam in Tianfu, but as a result, he failed in the township test, and felt that he had no face to go back to see his parents at home, so in a fit of anger, he followed a group of people into Beijing.
There was no news for 20 years, and later, after he followed Guo Jing to make a career, he sent someone back and brought silver taels.
After that, there was no further contact.
"Big brother, why are you here?" Fang Junhe felt strange, this case was only a month after the incident, and this Jiangnan is thousands of miles away from the capital, so it will take a month to come and go, and if you take a boat, it may be a little faster.
Jinyiwei doesn't have such a high efficiency, right?
"You haven't been home for more than ten years, and your family has suffered a disaster, I discussed it with your second brother, I came out, and he stayed at home......"
"When did this happen?" Fang Junhe said excitedly, "Big brother, why didn't you come to me?" ”
"Looking for you, the huge city of Beijing, I can't even enter the city gate, so can I find you?" The boss of the Fang family smiled bitterly.
Fang Junhe's face was sneering: "Didn't I ask someone to get you a sum of money?" ”
"It's a sum of money, the eldest brother has never seen so much money in his life, a hundred taels of silver!" The eldest brother of the Fang family said, "It was because of this money that I thought of coming out to find you, but I didn't expect that when I arrived in the capital, I couldn't even enter the door, and the eldest brother waited at the gate of the city every day." When I met people, I asked, no one knew you, and then a kind person took me in and gave me a job burning firewood and chopping wood, so that I settled down and had something to eat. ”
"A hundred taels of silver. No, I obviously brought back a thousand taels of silver! Fang Junhe gritted his teeth and said.
"What, a thousand taels?"
As soon as he heard this, he understood what was going on, the one thousand taels of silver that Fang Junhe brought back to the Fang family made the person who brought it back nine hundred taels.
This guy is really bold enough, isn't he worried about being found out by Fang Junhe and settling accounts with him?
"Fang Xiucai, do you still want the official to say it?"
"Yes, Lord Meng. The student used to work as an apprentice for a period of time. Fang Junhe admitted.
He had to admit that his brother knew about this experience, and such a powerful person could not deny it at all.
"Then why did you deny it just now?"
"There's always something disgraceful about the experience, and students don't want it to be known." Fang Junhe explained.
It is indeed not a good job, in the Ming Dynasty, this is a lowly status, and ordinary people are rarely willing to do this.
Meng Yan waved his hand. Motioned to bring the eldest brother of the Fang family down first.
"Fang Xiucai, all these years. You want the wind to be windy, you want to be rainy, the days can be said to be infinitely beautiful, why don't you even go home? Meng Yan asked.
"Master Meng, this is a student's private matter!"
"You're scared, you're scared and can't sleep every day. Right? Meng Yan's eyes were cold, pointing straight to his heart.
Fang Junhe's eyes flickered.
"You gave Guo Jing advice, and those things you did, once exposed, not only would you be ruined, but you would also go to hell. So, are you afraid, you don't dare to go back for so many years, you don't dare to see your relatives, are you afraid that one day your things will be committed, and your relatives will be affected? ”
"Master Meng, how did you find my eldest brother?" Fang Junhe asked.
"This is also a coincidence, your eldest brother inquired about your news outside Chongwenmen, and was heard by someone from my Jinyi Wei Public Opinion Division, only then did I know that he was your eldest brother Fang Junhe, if you hadn't changed your name, you would have been found a long time ago!"
Fang Junhe was silent, he changed his name because he was afraid that people would know his past identity?
"Now that you already know, why don't you bring my eldest brother to me?" Fang Junhe said angrily.
"From your standpoint, do you think we're going to do that?" Meng Yan sneered and asked rhetorically.
Fang Junhe was stunned!
Yes, if you think about it from another perspective, he will never let him meet his brother lightly, this is a killer feature.
"My eldest brother's job was also arranged by you?"
"Sort of, at least we still have a little bit of humanity." Meng Yan said, "If we hadn't stretched out our hand, your eldest brother would have starved to death in the ice and snow." ”
"So you're using my big brother to threaten me?"
"Threaten you, although your eldest brother is related to you by blood, but you and him are two kinds of people, he has always been proud of you, you are the first talent of the Fang family, you know, he has never hated you, even when he needs you the most, he didn't!" Meng Yan sighed, "And you, you are always calculating, calculating others, although you are clothed and fed, you live in fear every day, for fear that one day everything in front of you will come to naught!" ”
"Master Meng, I've said everything I need to say, if you don't have anything to do, send me back." Fang Junhe said.
"Yan Tong has already confessed, you instructed him to kill Tang Chun, you are the mastermind!" Meng Yan Road.
"It's funny, the student has no grudge against Tang Yushi, why do you want to kill him?" Fang Junhe flatly denied it.
"That night, you returned to the pavilion from the county government, and after reporting to Guo Jing, you came out of the pavilion again, you first went to the prison, called Yan Tong out, instructed him how to kill people, and then went to see Lord Zhao Liezhao, the governor of Yizhou, is what the official said right?"
"Ridiculous, I didn't meet Yan Tong at all, let alone ask him to kill someone." Fang Junhe denied.
"Do you want the official to invite Yan Tong out to confront you?" Meng Yan slapped the stunned wood and snorted coldly.
The beads of sweat on Fang Junhe's forehead fell.
"Fang Xiucai, if you have to torture you, are you willing to tell the truth?"
"Master Meng, I have known for a long time that there will be this day, come if you have anything, Fang will never frown!"
"You are really stupid, Guo Jing is really important to you, you think he gave you the current qiē?" Meng Yan Road.
"Receive the favor of others, and repay it!"
"A thief who has brought disaster to the country and the people is worth your life to defend?" Meng Yan was furious, "You have been studying hard for ten years, and all the books have been read in the dog's stomach?" ”
"Hahaha. What is the use of studying hard in the cold window, it is useless to be a scholar, when you are only wearing a single coat, and you are about to starve to death, you will find out. It's useless to read so many books because it doesn't give you clothes to wear and fill your stomach! Fang Junhe burst out laughing, tears coming out of his eyes.
"This is not a reason, as long as you have hands and feet, in this day, it is not difficult to eat a mouthful of food, the problem is on yourself."
"On me?"
"You can't let go of the so-called arrogance of a scholar, and you are unwilling to let go of your body. Go for a job, with your talents, even if you can't get famous, at least it should be no problem to be a Mr. Enlightenment, you yourself have also worked as an apprentice, although this job is low, but he is indispensable in judging and judging cases, and he has done a good job. Food and clothing are not a problem, but what about you. The eyes are high, you don't need to study, but you think that your talent is higher than the sky, for the so-called retribution, for the tiger, bullying the good. Is the qiē you get now exactly what you wanted? Meng Yan's words and sentences were beady, and Fang Junhe's psychological defense line was blasted away little by little.
The beads of sweat on Fang Junhe's forehead kept rolling down, and everything Meng Yan said was a portrayal of his heart.
He felt like a woman who had been stripped clean. Completely red and fruitful, he stood in front of Meng Yan.
There are no secrets.
"Do you think that if you carry all the charges off for Guo Jing, he will be grateful to you?" Meng Yan said, "He will not hesitate to take back the inheritance you have saved over the years, and your family will not get any of it." ”
When Fang Junhe heard this, he was as stunned as a wooden chicken.
"From what you know about him, he's done this kind of thing."
Fang Junhe didn't speak, and in his mind he was already at war between heaven and man.
"Why don't you make a deal with you, whether you say it or not, you sign a will with your eldest brother, if you die, the property in your name will be inherited by your eldest brother or the person you designate, and the official can witness for you?" Meng Yan said, "With this will, when the time comes, the official will take back everything that belongs to you for you, how about it?" ”
Fang Junhe was moved, in the entire Ming Dynasty, there were few people who dared to say this, and this one in front of him was definitely one.
He has fought with Dongchang, and he has never lost, even Wang Zhen has a headache, not to mention that he has Guo Nu behind him.
"What do you need me to do?"
"You don't have to confess that Guo Jing instructed you to kill, you just need to prove that Master Tang Yuntang killed people at your behest."
"I have no grudge against Tang Su, who would believe it?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, the evidence in the hands of this official is enough to prove that Master Tang did not die by suicide, but murder, and the murderer has been caught, as for who the mastermind is, I believe anyone can see that you are the executor and cannot escape." Meng Yan Road.
"What do you mean?"
"Whether you say it or not, you can't escape death, the difference is only the way to die, beheaded or hanged?" Meng Yan Road.
Fang Junhe felt that his eyes were dark, and his face instantly turned pale.
"Do you want to make this deal with this official?"
"There is no free lunch in the world, Fang wants to know why adults do this?" Fang Junhe asked.
"Want to hear the truth?"
"Truth!"
"Okay, the official will tell you clearly, if you can't defeat Guo Jing this time, the official doesn't want him to have a good time." Meng Yan smiled, and what was squeezed out between his teeth was Sen Ran's killing machine.
"As far as I know, you don't have a grudge against Gonggong Guo?"
"It seems that Guo Jing doesn't trust you so much, there are some things that he didn't let you know, he almost took the official's life, you say there is no grudge?"
"What?" Fang Junhe was surprised.
"There are some things that you know that are not beneficial, Guo Jing has been fornicating with foreign enemies all these years, you should know."
"I know that he is not alone in the smuggling business."
"What you know is only superficial, he has intelligence deals with the Tatars, the Warats, and even the Koreans, which you probably don't know."
"Intelligence?"
"It's the news of the defense of my border gates, etc., it is conceivable that the Tatars are well aware of the weaknesses of our Datong's defense, once they invade with troops, how can we resist it?"
"This is impossible, how could Gonggong Guo do such a thing?"
"This official has personally seen the envoys sent by Guo Jing in the Tatar royal court, as well as the secret letter written by Guo Jing to the Tatar Khan." Meng Yan Road.
"No, no......"
"Greed is the original sin, do you expect a man with all his eggs to have the court in his head, and pretend that the safety of the society is not in danger?" (To be continued......) R1292
