Bao Zheng's verdict made Zhang Yaocheng jump like thunder, slapped Wu Da's shopkeeper a few times, pointed at his nose and scolded, "Useless things, you can't even do this little thing, what's the use of you, get out of me, pack up and get out of me!" ”

The shopkeeper Wu covered his beaten face, bowed his head and left Zhang Yaocheng's mansion with hatred, and then packed up his things and went to Guan Lou.

Guan Lou has been wooing him a few times with a high salary, but he just misses the old love and can't bear to leave the Fuguiqiao Guan Pu shop that he founded single-handedly.

At this time, Zhang Yaocheng's two slaps completely chilled his heart, and while leaving Guan Pudian, he took away several key pieces of evidence, including the base sheet and account pages, and sent them to Bao Zheng anonymously.

Zhang Yaocheng was distraught, so he left the mansion and rushed to his brother's hometown by carriage, and he asked his brother to make decisions for himself.

Zhang Yaozuo was speechless for a long time, he couldn't have imagined that it would be such a result, not only to pay in full, but also to fine 30,000 taels of silver, how did his brother do things, even if Bao Zheng wanted to rectify himself, he couldn't act arbitrarily.

"What is the reason?"

Zhang Yaozuo asked with a dark face: "You guys are ready for everything, how can Bao Zheng arbitrarily judge Fuguiqiao to lose the lawsuit?" ”

"The key is that there is a witness, he came forward to testify, saying that he also bought a high-value ticket, and he bought it with the plaintiff, and he proved that the plaintiff was real, so Bao Zheng sentenced the other party to win?"

"Any one person who comes out to testify can win?"

After all, Zhang Yaozuo has also been a state official and tried cases, and he knows that if Bao Zheng is not sure, he will not dare to make a verdict easily, otherwise he will be easily overturned by himself.

It seems that the problem lies with the witness, and it is precisely because he came forward that Bao Zheng believes that this person will not lie, so he believes that the plaintiff must be true.

"Who is this witness?"

Zhang Yaozuo frowned and asked, "Have you carefully investigated this person!" ”

"I sent someone to ask, this person is registered as Cao Zongshi, claiming to be a student, but there is no such person among the students, I suspect that he is an auditor."

'Cao Zongshi? ’

Zhang Yaozuo felt that this name was very familiar, his daughter was a concubine, of course Zhang Yaozuo paid special attention to the situation in the palace, he was especially concerned about the heir to the throne, now the heir to the throne is still empty, no one inherits, Zhang Yaozuo most hopes that his daughter can leave a dragon species and become the crown prince, then the Zhang family will enjoy glory and wealth for generations.

Zhang Yaozuo walked a few steps with his hands in his hands, and suddenly asked, "Is this person a sect of the clan, the actual reality?" ”

"That's exactly the name!"

"I know who he is?"

Zhang Yaozuo suddenly remembered Zhao Zongshi, it must be him, he is also studying in Taixue, the reason why he changed to Cao Zongshi is because the adoptive mother who raised him was Queen Cao.

No wonder Bao Zheng saw him come out to testify, and immediately ruled that the other party won.

Zhang Yaozuo knew in his heart that it was impossible for Zhao Zongshi to commit perjury, even if this lawsuit was fought in front of the Son of Heaven, he would definitely lose, but this was just a trivial matter, if Zhao Zongshi appeared in front of the Son of Heaven again, it would arouse the old feelings of the Son of Heaven, which was something that Zhang Yaozuo would never want to happen.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yaozuo said to his brother: "Don't make a big deal about this matter, you will hand over the silver to Bao Zheng tomorrow, this matter will be settled, and you will clean up these bastards in the future!" ”

Zhang Yaocheng opened his mouth wide, his brother actually admitted it?

He wept and said, "Forty thousand taels of silver!" And Fuguiqiao's reputation is completely ruined, what will I do in the future? ”

Zhang Yaozuo said impatiently: "You have earned hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in the past few years, what is 40,000 taels of silver?" You don't have to be a shop, there are many other opportunities to make a fortune! ”

"The Guan Pu shop is the most profitable, what else can I do besides the Guan Pu shop? Big brother, show me the way! ”

"Stupid, do you want to ask me about such a small thing?"

Zhang Yaozuo scolded hatefully, thought for a while, and said: "Listening to the concubine, the official family has been addicted to a kind of beautiful stone recently, called Tian Huangshi, it is estimated that it will be worth a hundred times more soon, and you will open a shop that does stone business, specializing in Tian Huangshi, which can also make you rich." ”

"What kind of stone is Tian Huangshi?" Zhang Yaocheng asked blankly.

"Nonsense!"

Zhang Yaozuo slapped the table heavily and scolded angrily: "Won't you inquire yourself? This kind of little thing also needs to ask me. ”

Zhang Yaocheng saw that his brother was angry, and he didn't dare to ask again, so he had to promise and retreat, his heart was like a knife, 40,000 taels of silver!

Zhang Yaocheng left in frustration, but Zhang Yaozuo was thinking about Zhao Zongshi, the loss of tens of thousands of taels of silver from his brother was just a trivial matter for him, and it was not worth his brain.

But the heir to the throne is a major matter he pays attention to, and he must grasp this matter through his daughter, even if the official family does not have a son to inherit the throne in the end, Zhang Yaozuo also hopes that the last person to inherit the throne is the prince recommended by him, so that his interests can continue to be guaranteed.

Zhang Yaozuo felt the need to remind her daughter that she should also consider adopting a young son for training, and she could not be taken the initiative by Empress Cao.

．．．．．．．

It was already afternoon when Fanning returned to his lodgings, and he was in a good mood today, and he had drunk a few more glasses of wine, and he was a little overwhelmed.

Walking down from the ox cart, Fan Ning only felt dizzy, leaned against the wall and walked slowly into the alley, just walked to the door, only to see a teenager running out of the door, it was Fan Zhongyan's tea boy Xiaofu.

Fan Ning was stunned, "Xiaofu, why are you here?" ”

Xiaofu hurriedly said, "Where have you been?" Aung has been waiting for you for most of the hour. ”

Fanning's head was big for a while, and his cousin had been waiting for him for half an hour, and he hurriedly said, "I'll go see him." ”

"See what? Ah Gong waited for you to come back, so I had to go back first, let me wait for you here, you come with me! ”

Fan Ning suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, Fan Zhongyan was not in his yard, so he didn't have to worry about him seeing his drunkenness.

He hurriedly said, "When I wash my face and sober up, I'll go with you." ”

"You've drunk, such a heavy smell of alcohol, go wash your face."

Xiao Fu glared at Fan Ning dissatisfied, helped him into the yard, and fetched water from the well, the cold well water made Fan Ning's alcohol quickly subside, fortunately it was sake, not soju, so that Fan Ning quickly sobered up, he changed his clothes again, and then followed Xiao Fu to Fan Zhongyan's mansion.

Fan Zhongyan also has a house in the capital, located in the outer city Gongqiaozi Street, the house is not big, covering an area of only five acres, after he was deposed from the capital, the house was empty, Fan Zhongyan accidentally entered Beijing and did not live, so as not to be caught.

Last year, the eldest son Fan Chunyou fell ill in Dengzhou, so he went to Beijing to see a doctor and recuperate, and the house is currently lived by the eldest son's family, and the second and third sons also live here.

Since Fan Zhongyan returned to Beijing, the house was a little crowded.

"That's it!" Xiaofu pointed to a black-tiled high-walled road not far away.

Fan Ning saw the lanterns at the gate of the mansion, so he asked curiously, "Is there any happy event in the grandfather's mansion?" ”

Xiaofu glanced at him and said triumphantly: "You don't know! Ah Gong's second son was admitted to the Jinshi. ”

"What?"

Fan Ning was taken aback, Fan Zhongyan's second son Fan Chunren was also admitted to the Jinshi? How do you not know.

He asked anxiously, "How many did you get in the exam?" ”

"Ranked 46th in the top three in the exam."

Fan Ning slapped his head, it was ridiculous, his uncle of the same clan was actually admitted to the Jinshi, he didn't know, no wonder Fan Ning didn't know, after all, there were nearly 600 people on the list, enough to stand in a playground, and he never went to see the list, and when he finally read the list, he won the list first, entered the hall and thanked him, and when he called Fan Chunren's name later, he didn't hear it.

Although Su Liang heard it, he didn't know that Fan Chunren was Fan Zhongyan's second son.

However, Fan Ning was also a little dissatisfied in his heart, he was a child, and he didn't know that Fan Chunren was understandable in the same department, why didn't Fan Chunren take the initiative to find him?

Fan Ning suppressed a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart, and silently followed Xiaofu into Fan Zhongyan's mansion.

Walking into the mansion, I saw a young man in his twenties walking forward with a smile, "A Ning, I'm Fan Chunren, and I also came out of Yanying Academy." ”

Fan Ning saw that he had a straight nose and a square mouth, his eyes were blazing, he was wearing a fine linen deep coat, his appearance was dignified and simple, he suddenly had a good impression of Fan Chunren in his heart, in history, this little uncle was the prime minister of the Song Huizong era.

Fan Ning hurriedly bowed and saluted, "My nephew doesn't know that my uncle is also a fellow scholar, I'm really ashamed!" ”

Fan Chunren shook his shoulder and said apologetically: "The responsibility lies with me, I deliberately avoided you, I apologize to you!" ”

After speaking, Fan Chunren bowed deeply to Fan Ning.

Fanning was a little stunned, why did he salute so solemnly?

At this time, Fan Zhongyan came over and explained to Fan Ning: "Chunren participated in the imperial examination three years ago because he was implicated by me and did not succeed, so this time he is very low-key, if you didn't attract Zhang Yaozuo's attention this time, Zhang Xuan's target will definitely be Chunren." ”

Fan Ning suddenly remembered that Zhang Xuan had suppressed himself twice in the provincial test and the palace test, and he was relieved in his heart, because he was Fan Zhongyan's cousin, he had escaped the excuse of another test, and if it was Fan Chunren, he really couldn't escape.

Fan Ning smiled: "I am invulnerable, Zhang Xuan did not hurt me, but was shot by his own dark arrow, which is also what he deserves." ”

Fan Zhongyan nodded, in fact, he was also very sorry for Fan Ning in his heart, although he did not take advantage of Fan Ning's ideas, but Fan Ning actually became the shield of the second son, if it wasn't for the Son of Heaven who had a good impression of Fan Ning, if it wasn't for Wen Yanbo to preside over justice, Fan Ning would really be suppressed this time.

He had to explain this matter to Fanning well, and he couldn't let this kid leave a shadow in his heart.
