Chapter 698: And Blood
After being cut to the people, Fang Yingwu's life was quite leisurely. People like him, who are young and don't worry about money, still have influence, and now there are no elders to discipline him at home, it is a good time to live a humble life.
However, Fang Yingwu did not feel at ease as a gentleman, but visited others outside every day, and all kinds of fellow villagers went to worship in the same year, often running a few times a day.
In other words, Fang Yingwu usually pursues his own prestige and does his own thing, and is not very keen on scene communication, and cautiously follows the principle of not taking the initiative and not refusing. But now after being dismissed, he is unusual, and even enjoys it, obviously he has a reason.
Now that their Fang family has fallen into a lower trough again, the head of the family has been relegated to other places, the family has been reduced to ordinary people in the future, and the bound prince of the East Palace is estimated to be abolished soon.
From the perspective of officialdom, the father and son of the Fang family can no longer hit the street, and there is almost no hope. But as the so-called fire refines real gold, Fang Yingwu felt that this was a good opportunity to screen the hearts of others.
If you have had contact and friendship before, and dare to treat yourself slowly at this time, no matter how good your friendship has been before, you can be blacklisted at this time. And the relatives and friends who have passed the test can redouble their trust and trust them with important responsibilities in the future.
However, it is a pity for Fang Yingwu that after turning around, no new people have been added to the blacklist. I can't help but sigh Fang Yingwu, I really have a vision, this is people who gather like things, things are grouped, there are gentlemen talking and laughing, and there are no villains in contact.
Of course, a certain eunuch and a certain pavilion elder would not think so, and said in almost the same tone: "You think too much, mainly because the official Mu Bulang Yin Jian is in front." You should be famous for being a murderer, who would dare to give you a face again? In addition, a certain elder persuaded Fang Yingwu's performance art. warned that Fang Yingwu's mentality was wrong and too impetuous.
On this day, Fang Yingwu returned home in the afternoon. saw Xiang Chengxian and Xiang Dayushi walking around his concierge. And Xiang Chengxian saw Fang Yingwu coming back, and hurriedly shouted, "Where did Brother Fang Xian go?" I've been waiting here for a long time! ”
Fang Yingwu immediately lowered his face and scolded Menzi: "Brother Xiang came to the house as a guest, why didn't he bring in to invite a seat, but what is the reason for blocking Brother Xiang in the gatehouse?" ”
Xiang Chengxian stepped forward and persuaded: "Don't blame the door official, I'm in a hurry to see you, and I must wait here!" Fang Yingwu asked, "What is your urgent business?" You were called so hasty. ”
"It's really a big deal, Brother Hong is going to have an accident over there!" Xiang Chengxian hurriedly said.
The Brother Hong in Xiang Chengxian's mouth naturally refers to Hong Song, the oldest of the trio in Chun'an County. Fang Yingwu was puzzled. "I just met Brother Hong the day before yesterday, his head of the household is stable, what is going to happen?"
Xiang Chengxian replied: "Brother Hong resents the darkness of the imperial court, and plans to play a reprimand!" I can't persuade you, so I'm here to invite you! You persuade him to go, don't fall for this kind of death-begging recital! ”
Fang Yingwu was slightly surprised, and it could be judged from Xiang Chengxian's tone that Hong Song was only afraid that it would be very intense, and it would definitely provoke the anger of the Son of Heaven. The consequences are unpredictable.
It is said that Hong Song is the oldest of the trio, but he is the most upright one, but he didn't expect him to come out at this time. Fang Yingwu thought about it for a while. I don't agree with Hong Song taking this risk, it's really unnecessary.
Xiang Chengxian said the situation, pulled Fang Yingwu and left. "I asked Brother Hong to drink with me tonight, you can go with me quickly!" Of course, Fang Yingwu can't help but go. At the very least, we have to understand what Hong Song is thinking?
The two went to the mansion where Hong Song lived together, and Xiang Chengxian slammed the door and entered. The two of them went straight into the hall again. saw Hong Song sitting on the seat, looked at them with a wry smile and said, "I knew that the two of you would definitely come." ”
Fang Yingwu asked, "I heard what Brother Xiang said, why are you doing this?" ”
"Why? Does this need a reason? Look at the princes of the temple today, either looking forward to it, or bending to welcome it, full of mediocre and incompetent people, the country is like this, it is really unbearable! Hong Song said angrily.
He was a Jinshi in the middle of last year, for example, Ying Wu and Xiang Chengxian were one year late, and it has only been exactly one year. In the past year, the imperial court has been relatively quiet, and there have been few major events. But in this major event of the country, Hong Song found that the courtiers were full of selfishness and indifference, and it was not uncommon for him to feel sad and disappointed.
The more Hong Song said, the more excited he became, "When Emperor Taizong of this dynasty established the Han Dynasty, how were the ministers? When the acting emperor wants to abolish the present, what will happen to the ministers? All of them are going forward and one after another, regardless of their net worth! But what about the Chenghua Dynasty? There is not even a person who climbs to the top and shouts! ”
Brother Hong can still be angry for the current court, and his blood is still not cold. Fang Yingwu sighed: "The problem is not with the minister, but from the Son of Heaven himself.
From the thirteenth year of Chenghua, His Majesty favored Yu Xing, reused Wan'an, and rarely communicated with foreign ministers. And the loyal and upright people are either reprimanded or released, so now the court is not upright. The folk have the proverb that the three pavilions of paper paste and the six books of clay sculpture are still in the book, and the old books of the pavilion are like this, how can the officials of the small characters take the lead? ”
Xiang Chengxian interjected: "Actually, there are other reasons, now that Mao Hong has died, Master Fang has gone to Zhou County, Nanjing Wang Shu has no longer reach, there are few hard bones left in the court, everyone is not stupid, wait for others to fire the first shot, wait and see before deciding to follow up,"
It is conceivable that this first shot will definitely be strongly suppressed by His Majesty. Fang Yingwu just made a mistake and fought for a small part of the political rights and interests of the prince, but it was not completely considered to have hit the muzzle of the gun, and he was directly dismissed. So if someone dares to break it directly, it is difficult to say what will happen to them.
Hong Song sighed. "These are sad times! Although our generation is soft-spoken, we speak when we should speak, how can we let future generations say that there is no hard bone in this dynasty! ”
Fang Ying's story said with a pun: Floating clouds can't cover the sun, how can people's hearts be ignored? Maybe it only takes one chance to flip around.
Xiang Chengxian persuaded Hong Song bitterly: "This matter is indeed dangerous, we can't watch you fall into danger." First of all, those who talked about the country in the first few will be unlucky and regarded as killing chickens and monkeys. The disposition will only be heavier than Brother Fang Xian, not lighter than Brother Fang Xian, not to mention that your performance is too intense.
Secondly, Shangshu is really short of income, even if you can keep the East Palace in the end, you are not a minister of the inner court, and the prince will not be able to reach you for the time being, but will be angered by the Son of Heaven! ”
Hong Song pointed to Fang Yingwu and said: "My generation acts, but I have a clear conscience." Brother Fang Xian is also a well-known righteous person, and he has repeatedly come forward to admonish, will you look forward and calculate so much, and then act according to the gains and losses? ”
Fang Yingwu was silent for a moment, and replied sincerely: "Yes!" (To be continued......)
