Chapter 550: Wang Mang is humble and not usurped
At present, the most terrifying thing that can make the people up and down the Suzhou Mansion, especially those who have money or have calligraphy, paintings and antiques, feel the most terrifying, of course, is the insatiable and inhumane procurement eunuch Wang Jing is back
If you think about it carefully, you can understand that the people of Songjiang Mansion will beat gongs and drums to welcome Lord Qincha Fang Yingwu to Songjiang for inspection?
It is rumored that after the fiasco of the eunuch Wang Gonggong was defeated by Fang Qincha, there was an agreement that the prince was not allowed to do evil in the place where Fang Qincha was stationed, and no matter where Fang Ying's things were, the prince had to retreat.
This rumor is still quite reliable, in terms of strength, Fang Qincha, who holds the banner of the king's life, is enough to suppress the prince, and as long as the prince is a little interested, he will definitely take the initiative to avoid Fang Yingwu.
On the other hand, if Fang Qincha left Suzhou Mansion in the southeast capital, would the Princes' Guild make a comeback and return to Suzhou Mansion? I dare not say that it is 100 percent, but there is also a 99 percent chance.
The wealth of Suzhou Mansion can occupy almost half of the south of the Yangtze River, and it is the place with the richest collection of antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
If there is no way to defend it, the prince will stay in Suzhou for a long time and refuse to leave; And if Fang Yingwu is gone, it is logical for the prince to return to Suzhou Mansion, and there is no reason not to return to Suzhou Mansion from any point of view.
Thinking of this consequence, the wealthy families in and out of the city were a little anxious, especially the thirty or forty families who had taken refuge in Gongguan Street. If the eunuchs returned to Suzhou Mansion, they would definitely be unlucky, and they would definitely be the most unlucky.
So at this time, the locals finally figured out a logic, if they didn't want the eunuchs to be killed again. Then the minister of the Qin Mission, Fang Yingwu, can't go.
The reason for this is why Fang Qincha wants to leave. was forced away by the rumors of the Han family! At this time, the Han family was still immersed in the excitement of the success of the "resistance", but they unknowingly became sinners in the eyes of many Suzhou people.
Han Xiong has a son and daughter. The person who called Zhou Cheng opened a shop in the city, and when he heard the rumors that the eunuch might return to Suzhou, he felt that the situation was a little wrong, so he hurriedly went out of Pingmen to look at Han's house.
Master Han was drinking wine, and when he saw his in-laws, he asked, "Didn't Brother Zhou Xian say that he wouldn't come today?" Why did you rush there? ”
Zhou Yuanwai didn't know where to start for a while. Because so far, Fang Qincha has not done anything, and he has not said anything publicly. All of this exists only in the human mind, not in fact.
He thought for a moment before replying: "Fang Qin is leaving Suzhou, and then I heard rumors that the eunuch is coming back. And everyone said that it was the Han family who spread rumors and forced away Lord Qincha. Quite dissatisfied with the Han family. ”
Master Han hadn't thought of this before, and he was surprised to drop the wine glass to the ground, and the wine spilled on his body unconsciously.
At that time, although Master Han also felt that Lord Qincha admitted defeat too simply, and things developed too smoothly. It's just that he was carried away by the excitement, and he didn't think about it deeply, but he just said that he had no last resort, and everything was under control
Zhou Yuanwai sighed: "The most important thing about spreading rumors is not to let people know who started spreading rumors.
You've done things well, but you've executed them too haphazardly. This time you spread the news in a hurry. It's too obvious, and now everyone knows that this rumor is what your Han family did, and it's really a cocoon. ”
Han Xiong was uncertain, and said after the most reluctance: "Fang Qin will leave when he leaves." Who can help me? Do others dare to rush into Han's house to deal with me? Even if there are many complaints between Sang Zi, it is better to endure for a few days than to be raided!
And maybe that Fang Qincha is bluffing and retreating as an idea. Pretend to leave, win the sympathy of the world. Embarrassed me! ”
Two flowers bloomed, one on each branch, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day when the legendary Chin Cha left. Fang Yingwu stood in the inner courtyard of the mansion door. asked Wang Ying, "No problem?" Wang Ying replied: "It's all hinted, it should be appropriate." ”
Fang Yingwu nodded, stepped into the official sedan chair, and the door of the mansion opened immediately.
Legend has it that whenever a local magistrate leaves office, the local gentry will always express something, such as giving Wanmin umbrellas and plaques, or staging a scene of "taking off their boots and leaving their love".
When Fang Qincha's sedan chair went out of the gate, it was surrounded by hundreds of people, and if you look closely, you will see many familiar faces, but there are also many people who come in to see after hearing the wind.
Fang Yingwu got off the sedan chair, looked around the crowd and said: "This official came to Suzhou Mansion for official business, but unexpectedly attracted slander all over the city, intending to force this official to tie his hands. Although the purifier is self-purifying, and the official disdains to engage in a dispute of words, he cannot stop the rumors, and can only avoid them for the time being. ”
It's not a problem for you to avoid it for the time being, but don't invite the procurement eunuch again, and someone shouted: "Everyone knows that it is a rumor, why should Master Qincha mind!" ”
Another shouted: "Master Qincha is the Son of Heaven, holding the banner of the king's order, what are you afraid of the Han family, how can you avoid them!" ”
Fang Yingwu looked up to the sky and sighed, "Although this official has the banner of the king's order, it is used to eradicate evil spirits, not to chase the wind and catch shadows, and deal with the people for his own selfishness!" ”
The man shouted again, "Why should Master Qincha be so self-restrained! For the sake of the Han family, give up and wait, is it worth it? ”
"Where the way is, we must stick to it." Fang Yingwu said resolutely, then shook his head without saying a word, and returned to the sedan chair. However, the crowd did not leave, and the official sedan chair and the entourage slowly moved towards the gate under the obstruction of the crowd.
The road, which was originally less than a quarter of an hour, was forced to walk for half an hour this time, and the more people walked, the slower the speed. Fortunately, there is a pier outside the gate, and you can set off on the boat without walking.
There were already more than a dozen local gentlemen waiting on the side of the pier, and a table of fine wine was also set up. For the sake of etiquette, Fang Qincha had no choice but to get off the sedan chair and greet all the gentlemen one by one.
The first to come forward was an old gentleman in his fifties, named Li Yingzhen, who had met twice when Yingwu first met in Suzhou six years ago. This person is a master of calligraphy and painting, who had no intention of officialdom at the beginning, and was a celebrity in Suzhou, and his other identity was Zhu Yunming's father-in-law.
Shilin has to make friends, but the locals in Suzhou really can't have much friendship with Fang Yingwu, so they can only let Mr. Li, who has dealt with Fang Yingwu, reluctantly come forward.
"After six years, Lord Fang saved Sang Zi in fire and water before, and we can't thank you for it, but the public and private divisions have never been thanked. Now it's just a few rumors, how can Lord Fang bear to abandon my squire and go? Li Yingzhen hugged his fists and persuaded after saluting.
Fang Yingwu sighed, "People are terrible, how can a gentleman not cherish feathers?" Besides, this official is not gone forever, and when the rumors subside, he will naturally come back to perform official duties. ”
Li Yingzhen secretly smiled bitterly, and persuaded again: "Forgive the old man for being blunt, Lord Fang, your move is really a negative move, and it is not advisable." If you leave your business for three or two sentences, wouldn't you be a big loss and a dereliction of duty? ”
Fang Yingwu was silent, his face was gloomy, he shook his head again, turned around and walked towards the boat by the dock.
Li Yingzhen took a step forward and shouted anxiously: "Lord Fang, please stay, and listen to the old man's heartfelt words again!" The old man thinks"
Fang Yingwu suddenly turned around and showed a bright smile: "What the old gentleman said is right, this official is like an initiation, don't leave!" I would also like to thank you for your graciously retaining you, and you will fully support this official here, and this official will definitely live up to your expectations! ”
Li Yingzhen choked in one breath, and the tirade of more than 5,000 words that he had prepared in advance was stuck in his throat and couldn't come out.
A sentence suddenly popped up in someone's mind, Wang Mang was humble and not usurped (to be continued......
