Chapter 104: Angelica

Knowing that it was Fang Youxin who tried the case, some people were happy and some were worried, and there were even humanitarian people, this Fang Youxin was the butcher's knife sharpened by the emperor, and once this knife came out, there would be money without blood. So even though he has a quirky temperament and offends many people, he is a big celebrity in front of the emperor, and anyone who looks at him is polite.

But it's also strange to say that this party Nobu is not tall or strong, obviously a middle-aged man in his early forties, but he looks like a rickety and haggard old man. Take off his official robe and walk on the road, maybe someone will think he is a beggar. It was also because of his appearance that the ladies of rich and noble families did not dare to allow him, so he was recommended to a little widow when he was over thirty-five.

This little widow is only twenty-three or four-year-old, for example, Youxin is more than ten years younger, and she is also very smart. If it weren't for the dislike of her husband's family and the persecution of her mother's family, she would not have allowed Fang Youxin to believe in someone of such appearance. Many people were waiting to see their jokes, but who expected that the little widow would marry and give birth to a big fat son to Fang Youxin the next year. Someone made fun of Fang Youxin for raising children for others, Fang Youxin finally got a child, and he was so angry that he scolded: "You bully me ugly and short, I don't care, if I hear someone bully my wife again, I will fight with him in this official uniform." ”

As soon as these words came out, no one dared to say anything anymore, everyone knew that Fang Youxin was as his name suggested, and he believed in his words. Since he said so, he can definitely fight with the other party. But it's no wonder that the little widow's ex-husband has been dead for a year, and the child was born at full term, slandering people's reputation for no reason, and it's no wonder that Fang Youxin is angry.

Since Fang Youxin raised his son, it can be said that his official fortune has been prosperous, and there is almost nothing that can be considered tricky. He often said to people that this little widow's standard Wangfu Mashiko was a pity to follow him as a bad old man.

However, Fang Youxin only spoke softly to his wife and children, and as soon as he left the house, he still looked like a ghostly and sorrowful. An Qinghou knew that it was Fang Youxin who took over the case, and he was also discouraged, and it was said that he was sick.

Sure enough, Fang Youxin hadn't found out the whereabouts of the official bank, but had dug up Song Yan's perennial illegal behavior. Although this young master Kuo has nothing to do with the official bank, he has not done anything illegal, but compared to the official bank, it is just a drop in the bucket. But I don't know if Fang Youxin's reputation for being worried is too loud, or if God also helps him. Just two days after he investigated the case, someone reported that he had dug a tunnel under a dilapidated thatched hut in the suburbs, and a lot of official silver was hidden in it.

Immediately, Fang Youxin's reputation immediately shouted in the capital, and everyone exclaimed that he was a divine judge, but he was sullen in his heart. Because this is not his investigation at all, it is like pie in the sky, it is too coincidental. He wanted to enter the palace to face the saint and explain all this, but the emperor didn't want to see him at all, so he directly issued a holy decree to praise him vigorously and rewarded a lot of things. He had no choice but to write down all the things he found and submit them to the Holy One.

Some people advised him that since the official money had been found and the emperor had rewarded him, the detained person should be released. Fang Youxin didn't say a word, and he still went around investigating cases every day, as if nothing had happened. Unable to wait for the emperor's summons, he could only detain people and consume them, so anxious that the Marquis of Anqing Mansion and the Duke of Lu Guofu hurriedly pulled many things to the Fang family.

"Madame has been looking good lately, and she is getting more and more fresh." As soon as Fang Youxin returned home, he put on a flattering face, which was completely different from his reputation outside.

"It's not serious!" Mrs. Fang said coquettishly. Although she also complained when she first married Fang Youxin, but in the end, it was the traditional idea of marrying with her husband, so she followed him steadily, but she didn't expect her husband to be considerate although he didn't look good, but he was just scared of people by putting a score outside. "That's not just that you only accept other people's food, other people's families are big officials, and they all follow to send gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, which is like you, and the family is about to change to a restaurant."

Fang Youxin's principle of accepting bribes is not to accept anything that cannot be imported, and not to accept anything that is too difficult to digest.

Someone was clever and gave Ganoderma lucidum ginseng head black tiger bone, but Fang Youxin returned it anyway, only saying that his stomach was not good and he couldn't consume such a precious thing. If he gave some ordinary chicken, duck and fish meat, he would accept it happily. Some people said that he was stupid, but Fang Youxin said with a smile: "Anyway, these eats, and they will be reincarnated every ten hours, and the things that can't be seen are not human." ”

After listening to Mrs. Fang's words, Fang Youxin squinted and smiled: "This is not bad, tomorrow I will go to Beijing to find a shop, so that people can send food to the restaurant in the future, and then invite everyone to eat for free." ”

As soon as Mrs. Fang heard her husband's words, she knew that she would be able to do what he said, so she hurriedly interrupted to save him from making embarrassing jokes again. "By the way, how did you handle this? I heard that the people who are involved in the hands are all powerful people in Beijing, don't be stubborn, this is not comparable to being in a small place. Mrs. Fang couldn't help but shudder when she thought of the servants who came in to deliver things to the house, who had just dressed up and were even more expensive than Fang Youxin.

"Don't get in the way, with the support of the Long Live Lord, at most after dealing with this matter, we will run away overnight." Fang Youxin has long been accustomed to this model, the emperor just borrowed his knife to kill the arrogance of those so-called local magnates, and then sent Fang Youxin to another place, and then came forward to appease him, so that the other party suffered a dumb loss and had to thank the emperor.

"Running again?" Mrs. Fang sighed helplessly. "Since I followed you, I will live at least ten years less."

"Tell me, what did you send?" Fang Youxin didn't take his wife's words to heart.

"Nothing, according to your temper, you can't eat and retreat. However, the Li family sent two baskets of white radish, which were enough to eat for one season. "Mrs. Fang is a little angry, even if you give food, let's send a radish, so let's send a piece of meat. If such a person wants to say that she has hidden official silver, she has to die of laughter. "Do you say that Li Ge really has such a breeze on his sleeves, it's better not to send it."

Fang Youxin thought for a while, and suddenly replied with a smile: "Eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, and be safe and healthy all year round." Turnips are a good thing, so we have to return the favor. ”

"What?! Do you want to return the favor? Mrs. Fang was stunned, how could these two baskets of radishes return the gift, do you still send two catties of cabbage back? Besides, this winter is over, this

Fang Youxin smiled and did not come back.

The next day, the people of the Fang family came to the Li family with a wooden box, and after the Fang family left, Li Ge Lao immediately asked people to set off to pick up Li Xunzhuo back.

This made the Ling family very happy, and after waiting for so many days, they finally heard the official silver they found, but they couldn't wait for the news of the release. The Ling family was so anxious that they almost turned their hair white, but they didn't expect that suddenly the Fang family sent a wooden box, and Li Ge asked them to pick them up.

Li Xunzhuo, who finally returned home, was so excited that he knelt on the ground when he saw Li Gelao, crying bitterly, which made others feel sad when they looked at it. It turned out to be personable, radiant, and after a toss, the whole person was haggard and inhuman. Not to mention the thin body, the face and clothes are even more embarrassing, you can imagine how much torture this prison disaster is for Li Xunzhuo.

Elder Li Ge shook his head and asked him to help him go back to Xiyuan to rest first and recuperate his spirits. As soon as they entered Xiyuan, the Ling family cried unscrupulously, and the Su family and Jinhua also pounced, talking and making trouble, crying unscrupulously. Wen Xiang didn't dare to approach, so she followed the Shaohua sisters to stand and wipe her tears, and even Si Mo stood next to her with red eyes.

After a long time, Cui's mother reminded Li Xunzhuo to change his clothes, and Ling Shi collected his tears and sent everyone away.

Shaohua was a little curious, what did the Fang family send, and why did he suddenly agree to release him.

Si Mo raised his hand to indicate that he knew, "I heard from the second brother that the Fang family sent a box of medicinal herbs, which seems to be angelica." Shaohua suddenly asked, "Did grandfather send something to the Fang family?" Si Mo thought about it very seriously, "It seems to be two baskets of radishes." ”

"Turnips?" Wanhua was stunned for a moment.

"Well, I heard that this lord does not accept gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, and only accepts food, and it can't be expensive." Driven by the instigation of his sisters, Si Mo, who can only read every day, has no choice but to start inquiring about things outside. "It is said that he is not weak in his heart after receiving these things, and he will be punished according to what should be punished, and beaten according to what should be beaten."

Wanhua asked, "Then why did we send the radishes, and he released them." Does he love turnips? ”

Shaohua thought it was funny, "Probably as a step down." Although the source of this official silver has not been found, and the emperor has tacitly acquiesced to not pursuing it, he still admits reason and refuses to let go, which has annoyed many people in Beijing. If you don't let people go, I'm afraid that I will be co-signed to participate in a book, but I won't get good. "I don't know if anyone else has released it."

Wanhua said angrily: "What do we have to do with us, we were originally affected by them, so it's better to keep it for a long time." ”

As a result, it was still very unfortunate for Wanhua, and the Marquis of Anqing saw that Li Xunzhuo was picked up by his family, and immediately sent someone to meet Song Yan. But he was still refused to come back, so angry that he brought his illness into the palace that night.

Later, more than what happened, it is said that when An Qinghou came out of the palace, his face was very unsightly. The next day, under the holy decree, Song Yan was reprimanded, and the charges were all some absurd things in the capital under the protection of the Marquis of Anqing over the years, and told Song Yan that people like him were not qualified to inherit the title of Marquis of Anqing. He also fined Anqinghou's Mansion for two years, but after the reprimand, he still agreed to Anqinghou to take Song Yan out of prison.

Mrs. Song knelt on the ground and fainted crying, An Qinghou looked at this holy decree, and it was not good to immediately accept it, and it was not good not to accept it. In the end, he had to grit his teeth, thinking that it was important for people to live, so he kowtowed to thank the Holy Grace and took Song Yan, who was almost not human, home.

The Mansion of Lu Guo was not as lucky as the Marquis of Anqing, it was also a holy decree, but the Mansion of Lu Guo was raided, and it was found that there was still a little official silver. The people didn't take it out, but the whole family folded in, which made everyone feel embarrassed.

However, on the same night, Fang's house was burned clean by an inexplicable fire. But not to mention the figures inside, everything was cleaned up, Fang Zhongxin left the capital with his family and the holy decree assigned by the emperor as early as when Anqing Hou entered the palace.
