Chapter 35: Crosstalk Inside and Outside the Court
The eldest brother of the official cha interrupted the cross talk performance of the two, and said with a wry smile: "You can't say this first, then the Guo family's paper is clearly written, and Fan Gongzi is precisely because of the Chun matter that he holds a grudge, so he will block the street in the middle of the night and commit murder." β
Liu asked Fan Xian: "What is the final result in the restaurant?"
"I broke the bridge of the nose of one of his guards. Fan Xian said reproachfully.
"You're all right, are you?"
"How can I be okay? At that time, everyone in the restaurant saw that I was a person who refused to suffer. β
Liu sighed, turned his head and said to the officer: "Listen, those who hold a grudge are naturally the ones who suffer losses, and the young master of our family has taken a big advantage, will he still hold a grudge?"
The errand officer has always only listened to the lawyer in the public court, and he has never seen the posture of taking the lead in defending himself before he goes to court, and he has long been dumbfounded, and he doesn't know what to say. As soon as Liu stretched out his finger without any fireworks, there was an extra silver ticket in the officer's hand, and his eyes lit up at a glance.
The Liu family had already replied to the self-esteem and nobility that a lady should have, and said lightly: "This yamen, we will go, we are going to see what the Guo family is playing." But you can't go at this time, you go back and tell Master SΓΉ Mei, when that Guo Gongzi goes to court, our family will go to the court to confront him. β
An errand officer thought that this was not in accordance with the rules, where was the reason to come to take someone but took a hand of silver tickets back, and was about to speak, but was stopped by the little man, and answered yes, and quickly withdrew from Fan's mansion.
The Fan Mansion finally returned to tranquility, and there was no one else in the flower hall except for the Liu family and Fan Xian. Fan Xian looked at the Liu family with a smile, thinking in his heart, how good it would be if this was not his enemy, he saw the other party's methods today, and gave birth to a little appreciation for no reason, although the Fan family has a big business, but it was suddenly attacked by the Guo family, and the father in the house is not there, the Liu family can handle it clearly, it is a trivial matter not to fall behind on the scene, the key is to buy a lot of time in order to deal with it.
Sure enough, Liu Shi took a sip of tea and asked lightly, "What are you doing this for?"
Fan Xian smiled and said: "My father has always hoped that I can quickly become famous in Kyoto, I thought about it, this writing poetry and writing is really not very interesting, if I can fight a lawsuit with the scholar of the dynasty, I will definitely become famous much faster." "It's a joke, of course.
"You can fight, you have to show your identity to fight, it seems that you are afraid that it will not be too troublesome. There was a hint of anger in Liu's words.
Fan Xian replied respectfully: "I just want to vent my anger, if I don't let the beaten person know that I hit the beater, how can this breath come out?"
Liu Shi glanced at him, and felt that the handsome boy in front of him was many times better than his son, although he seemed to be doing something rampant and domineering on the surface, but looking at this body and stability, he knew that he naturally knew in his heart, and couldn't help sighing, feeling a little lost in his heart.
Fan Xian didn't know what she was thinking, smiled slightly and asked curiously, "Auntie, why did you help me before?"
Liu raised her head slowly, there were already some thin lines on the edge of her eyebrows and eyes, she seemed a little surprised that the young man could speak so directly, and after thinking for a while, she replied quietly: "Although my surname is Liu, I am a member of the Fan family." β
Fan Xian stared at her eyes, knowing that this woman must not believe what she says, but she does not know how to respond.
The silence in the flower hall could be heard even when a pin fell on the ground.
......
......
"Master Mei is my father's protΓ©gΓ©, and I have sent someone to fetch the letter. Your father should have gotten the news at this time, and I believe that nothing will happen, at most he will pay them a few taels of silver. Liu closed his eyes, as if he was a little tired, "Let the housekeeper accompany you to Kyoto Mansion in the afternoon, Fujiko Jing followed you last night, don't follow you to the Mansion today, so as not to be too ostentatious." β
Fan Xian looked at Liu's still beautiful cheeks with some curiosity, and really couldn't understand why such a woman with both background and such a capable woman in the family would be willing to marry her father as a concubine.
After noon, the Fan Mansion had already prepared all the things, the places that should be dotted were all ordered, and the way to go had been informed in advance, and they sent someone to inquire clearly, Guo Baokun had been carried to the court on a stretcher, so the Liu family arranged the carriage in an orderly manner, sent some people, surrounded Fan Xian, and drove to the mansion like a victorious general.
Fan Xian, who was sitting in the carriage, didn't care much about this trip to the court. He beat Guo Baokun really to get angry, and when he first found out that the other party's eyes were wrong, he wanted to fight, and he was verbally insulted by the other party at the Jingwangfu Poetry Conference, which increased his determination to do it. It's just that when I first entered Kyoto, I made such a big move, and although I also left some means, I was still afraid that it would be difficult to end it for a while.
But he still wants to fight, beating people is the means, and the key is to see what kind of effect can be achieved by beating people. And the reason why Fan Xian wants to beat Guo Baokun is based on three reasons: first, he wants to take this opportunity to see what kind of strength his father hides in the officialdom of Kyoto, so as to make arrangements for the queen, his father is always secretive to him in these aspects, if he asks directly, it is definitely impossible to get a clear answer, and at the same time, it can confirm a question hidden in the deepest part of Fan Xian's heart. The second is to pour some dirty water on his body, no matter what, when he goes to court, it seems that he is going to sit on the domineering and unreasonable image of Fan Xian's son, and this is exactly what Fan Xian wants, because he is carefully controlling a certain degree, and the "palace" has a favorable impression of himself - although he is at the request of his father to establish his own talented side, he is always notorious and makes the "palace" take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage - a qiΔ for the sake of the chicken leg sister.
The third reason is very simple: Guo Baokun is indeed very underbeaten.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββ
When he came to the yamen, Fan Xian was taken aback, looking at the excited people outside the red sΓ¨ wooden gate outside the door, he was extremely puzzled, and with the help of several family members, he squeezed in with great difficulty. Standing on the stone slab of the public hall, looking at the wall behind the public case with red rΓ¬ out of the East China Sea, and the torture sticks standing around him, he secretly screamed in his heart, thinking that he had come to the High People's Court of BΔijΔ«ng City, and it was finally worth the trip.
When I turned around, I found that those people in Kyoto were more excited than themselves, desperately squeezing forward, trying to occupy a better position, and a few bachelors who were professional and lively were about to sit on the red fence.
Fan Xian asked curiously about Zheng Tuo, a Qing guest sent by the Liu family to follow him, this Mr. Zheng was a famous criminal master in the Jiangnan area many years ago, and it seems that he also had a host-guest friendship with the current Kyoto Mansion Yin, so it is most suitable for the Liu family to send him.
Zheng Tuo explained with a smile: "The people in Kyoto are bold, don't look at a broken man, maybe it's some poor relative of the national prince, so no one will be afraid of anyone, like today...... It is indeed rare for Shangshu to have a lawsuit with the Shilang's family, and no one wants to miss this kind of excitement. β
Fan Xian thought to himself, are you guys here to watch a blockbuster, and shook his head with a little headache. Zheng Tuo asked softly on the side: "Young Master, although I have already dealt with it in the mansion before, I have to ask one last time, is this matter your hand or not?" Naturally, I can't admit it in front of the mansion master, but if you tell me the truth, I can talk about it later." β
Fan Xian said with sincerity on his face: "Mr. Zheng, I don't dare to hide it from you, I really didn't beat that Guo Gongzi." Zheng Tuo looked at the handsome young man's kind and honest face, smiled, and patted him lightly on the shoulder to express his appreciation.
After a while, Fan Xian's curious shout for a long time finally sounded, and Lord Mei of Fu Yin came around from the back hall with a frame, and sat down with a big sword. A moment later, a mummy, also in a wheelchair, was pushed out of the back hall, followed by the positioner, gently shaking a paper fan. Fan Xian looked at the mummy, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking to himself how could he be so heavy, and the dignified Shangshu Mansion actually played this kind of small trick to fight for sympathy.
The mummy is naturally Guo Baokun's son who was beaten in a daze, he was in pain all over his body at this time, especially the bridge of his nose, it was still extremely painful, the doctor's treatment did not play much at all, he didn't know, Fan Xian finally punched that punch and sent some dark energy in, the true qi in Fan Xian's body is different from the common true qi in the world, domineering and ferocious, and where can it be good for a while.
Guo Baokun saw Fan Xian standing in the public court like a nobody, and his eyes exposed outside the gauze showed a fierce look, as if he was choosing someone to eat. Fan Xian pretended not to see this, looked at the master who was shaking the fan, and asked Zheng Tuo in a low voice, only to know that the other party was Song Shiren, a famous big man in Beijing, who had always had a bad character and only worked for high-ranking officials, so he had a name, called "Fuzui".
Yin Mei, who was sitting tall, slapped the startling wood in his hand, and the sound was very clear, and the noisy sounds inside and outside the public hall suddenly quieted down, and those spectators lying on the red fence became silent, after all, no one wants to miss the show.
"Who is in the hall?" Mei asked slowly, he had already been informed by both sides, and he knew it in his heart, but these superficial skills naturally had to be done slowly according to the rules, and the official glanced at these characters in the court with full authority.
No matter who you are, you have to listen to me in this Kyoto government.
