Chapter 248: Self-Knowledge
In the hall, Bi Zhi'an listened happily and pretended to cough.
The officials holding the killing stick looked at Tao San, and then thought about Wen Zifu's appearance, and they also wanted to laugh.
Bi Zhi'an must have thought more than the servants.
The facial features of the old lady were originally young, and she was wearing men's clothes, not showing maturity, but looking more and more immature.
But that's just what it seems.
Wen Yan lived in the palace for a few years, and the old lady served in the palace for a few years.
With that kind of experience, the little girl can't be a person who can't control her mouth when she opens her mouth.
She can be unafraid of the majesty of the yamen and explain things clearly, but she will never mutter something like that for no reason.
The old lady means something.
Bi Zhi'an heard it, and then thought about Wen Zifu's "long sighs" these days......
He has been the governor for so many years, and I have seen too many cases of you framing me and me calculating, and I guessed all at once.
Touching his beard, Bi Zhian thought silently in his heart.
How could the county lord of Wanyang hate the Wen family so much?
Thinking about it, he knocked the startled wood and began to question.
The questioning was not smooth, and several other people in the hall spoke upside down, and loopholes were frequent.
Seeing this, Bi Zhi'an simply left the court first, and those who should be imprisoned were imprisoned.
Then, he called Wen Zifu to the study and discussed it behind closed doors.
"Towards Ling Langbu's beauty bureau?" Bi Zhi'an doesn't go around in circles and gets straight to the point.
Wen Zifu smiled bitterly and nodded.
Bi Zhi'an suppressed his voice and said: "Let me handle this case, I'm not afraid to rush into the eldest princess's mansion to mention people, if the matter is bad, if it is brought back, there is no way to convict." really knows that it is the county lord who is behind the layout, only Tao San, but even if Tao San opens his mouth, the eldest princess will not admit it, and if she admits it wrong, you and I have no choice. ”
Wen Zifu also knows this truth.
When the evidence is insufficient, it has nothing to do with the courage and ability of the officials, and even if everyone knows it, the charges cannot be covered.
What's more, that one is still the county lord.
Wen Zifu said something considerate of the yamen.
Bi Zhian listened and patted Wen Zifu on the shoulder.
Before Wen Zifu was transferred to Shuntianfu, Bi Zhian didn't know much about this person, but he knew the same thing, and he was Bi Zhi'an's right-hand man.
As a result, after several months of running-in and getting along, Bi Zhian is still very satisfied with Wen Zifu.
understands proportion, knows advance and retreat, and knows how to gain a foothold in officialdom.
Without the innocence of the children of the family, they will not want to reap ten percent of the fruit after accounting for three points.
No wonder the old lady wanted to mutter so much in the court, the Wen family understood that the case ended with Tao San's adultery with the woman, or whether it was used to force it, and that was the end of it.
Bi Zhi'an opened the door of the study, stepped out, and suddenly a thought crossed his mind.
This moment was too fast, he didn't grasp the specific idea, and only vaguely felt that the Wen family would not suffer this dumb loss.
Li only has three points, why can't he get back another three?
Cats have cat paths, dogs have dog paths, officialdom can't go through, and there are other roads.
Nine times out of ten, the Wen family has a backhand.
The other compartment.
The old lady walked out of the yamen and went around to a nearby alley, where Wen Yan's carriage was parked.
Ebony lay on the roof of the carriage, and the spring afternoon sun was falling, and it flicked its tail for a while.
One moment it was lazy, and the next moment, it suddenly stood up and meowed in the direction of the old lady.
The old lady raised her head and smiled at Ebon.
She noticed that someone was following her, but she just pretended not to know.
The girl had explained before, with the temper of the county lord of Wanyang, she would want to know where she lost if she lost.
Instead of asking her to go to the academy in a few days to entangle Wen Ci, it is better to explain it today.
The old lady walked to the carriage and stood still, she did not get on the carriage, and the people in the carriage did not move.
In a dark corner not far away, the county lord of Wanyang walked out and strode to the carriage.
Wen Yan lifted the curtain and said slowly: "Please be safe in Wanyang County." ”
Such an unhurried attitude of everything under control made the county lord of Wanyang angry.
She didn't care if this way of greeting was in order, and only stared at Wen Yan coldly: "Why?" ”
"Which one does the county lord ask?" Wen Yan asked rhetorically.
The county lord of Wanyang clenched his back molars.
She certainly has a lot of whys.
Why did you fall out with the second room, but you can still break the game for Wen?
Why were you able to settle the three people who were in the house at the time without knowing it?
Why do you recognize Tao San?
……
Every question rolled and roared in the chest of the county lord of Wanyang.
She turned her gaze to Wen Ci.
Wen Ci was also looking at her, his eyes were calm, and he couldn't find the slightest wave.
No anger, no questioning, no chagrin, this is not the look in the eyes of a liar when you are rescued from a scam after being deceived and look at the liar again.
Rather, from beginning to end, he was not fooled.
If you have not been deceived, how can you be disappointed and sad?
But this kind of calm is only a gentle word.
The calmer Wen Ci was, the more angry the heart of the county lord of Wanyang became.
It was a pot of cold oil, dripping in the flames, boiling and burning.
The county lord of Wanyang was angry: "Why don't you believe it? ”
That's impossible!
With such an identity, he took the initiative to show favor to Wen Ci, why shouldn't Wen Ci be fooled?
Men, they're all stupid!
Wen Ci said: "Probably because I am self-aware. ”
It was a very simple sentence, but when it fell on the ears of the county lord of Wanyang, it was comparable to thunder.
There was a buzzing sound that made her hardly believe her ears.
The county lord of Wanyang subconsciously widened his eyes, and he couldn't even breathe smoothly.
She even felt that Wen Ci said that she was "not good-looking" and "unattractive", and there was no "self-knowledge" to make her aggrieved and resentful.
She remembered that just a few days ago, when she was listening to the news of the Wen family from the people below, she also joked about how Wen Ci didn't look in the mirror.
As a result, he took it, he knew how many pounds and taels he had, and he was self-aware.
Wen Ci's words were like a strong slap from the mother-in-law, which fell on her face.
I slapped myself to the ground and couldn't get up.
The county lord of Wanyang staggered back two steps.
The anger was still burning, but for a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Wen Yan saw the reaction of the county lord of Wanyang, and knew that these words were like a knife in his heart.
But she knew that Wen Ci was telling the truth.
That day, when the family was discussing how to deal with it, Wen Yan asked Wen Yan the reason for his resignation.
Wen Ci said that when he got up in the morning to freshen up, he looked at the basin for a long time.
The appearance reflected in the basin of water is decent.
When he was in the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, he recognized the grandson of Zhao Taibao's family, and that was Yushu Linfeng and handsome and unparalleled.
Even Wen Hui felt that her brother had been compared to the ground.
With such a jewel in front of him, how can he be virtuous and be favored by the county lord?
So abnormal, naturally questioned.
Wen Yan motioned for the old lady to get into the car, and said, "County Lord, my brother still wants Wen Shu, let's go back first." ”
The curtain fell, and the carriage drove away from the alley.
The county lord of Wanyang stared at the carriage in the distance and saw the cat lying on the roof of the car......
Even a brute would dare laugh at her!
