Chapter Ninety-Six: The Inner Treasury Strikes
The sound is very crisp, not like the muffled sound of the staff of the Kyoto Imperial Palace falling on the imperial historians of the Imperial Palace, but like someone beating a rhythmic music.
The beat only fell ten times before it ended, and the three workshop directors finally did not have air in and out like Brother Baoyu, nor did they faint like Fan Laoer.
Fan Xian looked at the scene with great interest, and couldn't help but be a little surprised by the hardness of these three principals, who were beaten ten boards, but he didn't even snort, he was a person who knew the style of his subordinates, since he shouted and beaten, no one dared to spare his strength.
The three principals were lying on the bench, their clothes were lifted, their pants were also faded, and their buttocks and backs were full of red marks, looking miserable, but they were too humiliated today, and in front of Fan Xian, they didn't make a sound of begging for mercy, but the board always hurts when it falls on the body, especially in addition to the pain, there is also a sense of humiliation of being stripped of their clothes, so that these middle-aged men began to have tears in their eyes, watery, and hateful, like poor puppies.
Fan Xian clapped his hands and said, "Fork out." β
"Yes. The subordinates responded in unison, and then picked up the three principals and walked outside the yamen.
Behind these three principals, who had already been humiliated, Fan Xian did not forget to shout like a businessman: "Three days, three days, don't forget!"
............ The yamen suddenly fell silent, and the officials looked at Fan Xian with a little more fear, everyone in the world knows Fan Xian's reputation, but he is not from Kyoto, for Fan Xian's Qing name and the cold taste contained in it, these officials have not experienced it personally, and the pain of the civil officials sent by the second prince is not as clear.
But now everyone finally watched, in addition to being secretly afraid, they couldn't help but have a little more secret sneer, just beat it, it was the treasurer, not for us officials, it's just that no matter how knowledgeable you are Lord Fan, you are still blind to the affairs of the inner curry, and you have offended the main affairs of these three major squares, and you will see how you end up.
Fan Xian may not know that these officials under him have the idea of watching the excitement after three rì, maybe he doesn't care about this at all, and said a few words casually, instructing everyone to fill in the arrears within three rì, and if there is any illegal matter, he will be the first to check on himself, and then let the officials go out.
He left behind the general from the Ye family, as well as his close assistant Deputy Envoy of the Transit Division. To do that thing after three rì, in many ways, he still needs the help of these two people.
I don't know what he said to these two officials in the back garden, but I saw that the faces of the two became heavier and heavier, and finally nodded slowly, bowed respectfully to Fan Xian, and withdrew.
............ "Your Excellency." Su Wenmao handed over the information summary handed over by the Supervision Institute, Fan Xian took it easily, and nodded slightly while looking at it, it seems that the people around are still of some use, but they have been pressed up and down by the eldest princess and the treasurer over the years, and there is no chance to show their skills.
Su Wenmao watched him immersed in the dossier, thinking of the previous scene, he couldn't help frowning, plucked up his courage and said softly: "The main affairs of the three major squares can be killed." β
Fan Xian glanced up at him and couldn't help laughing: "Of course you can kill, but killing is not cooking, you can eat as much as you eat, and you don't need to kill in a hurry." β
"Your Excellency was too gentle before. "Su Wenmao came from the Supervision Yuan, and he has always been ruthless about the governance of officials, and he really felt too merciful for Fan Xian's previous treatment.
He said angrily: "The adults only beat them ten boards before, which is too light, but I am afraid that these people will be unconvinced." β
Fan Xian waved the intelligence summary of the Supervision Institute in his hand, and said calmly: "According to the evidence in my hand, I cut off those three heads with a knife, and no one dares to say anything." β
Su Wenmao was stunned, thinking that since this was the case, why did he let go of those three guys who had no king's law before, so why did he let go of those three guys who had no king's law?
Fan Xian explained with a smile: "Thunder, rain and dew, all ...... Shangen. If I had dealt with it ruthlessly before, although the officials and the treasurers, large and small, would have been dissatisfied, and even jealous out of fear, they would have only responded, and they would have been honestly due to the sharp edge of the head-killing knife, and the three-day deadline would have been...... I'm afraid that in less than a day, the officials will make up the shortfall, and those treasurers will be crazy to send money to and from the office. β
"It's not ...... What do you want to see?" Su Wenmao became more and more puzzled.
Fan Xian waved his hand: "Wrong, if you suppress it for a while, and only kill the main affairs of the three major fangs, for Neiku, what fundamental changes can there be?" It's like hunting monkeys on the mountain, if you want to kill the monkey king, those monkeys will scatter." You know, I can't and don't want to stay here for a long time, and then we'll be gone, and the monkeys will come out of the mountains to steal our corn to eat. β
Su Wenmao's heart moved, and he understood something, the monkey mentioned in the metaphor of Lord Tisi is naturally the number of treasurers of the three major squares, if the head of the three major squares is cut off today, those treasurers will naturally honestly spit back the silver taels and pay back the wages owed to the workers, but in that case, Lord Tisi will lack the opportunity to make a butcher's knife again, and after the Lord Tisi leaves northern Fujian and returns to Hangzhou, Shannan Road is far away, those treasurers are only afraid that they will be active again, and the workers in the three major squares are only afraid of facing more tragic revengeγ
"It's squeezing pus. Fan Xian smiled and said: "You look at the face seems to be flat, in fact, the pus is still in it, so let's not rush to scrub first, but to open the pores and squeeze out all the pus." β
Su Wenmao was stunned, obviously he hadn't taken a beauty class, but he understood what Fan Xian meant, and said with a smile: "What adults say is complicated, isn't it just to lure the snake out of the hole?"
This is called beating the snake and startling the snake. Fan Xian touched his smooth hair, and found that his description didn't seem to be very appropriate, so he couldn't help but laugh: "Anyway, in the three-day period, the humiliation of the three major squares and ten boards, I think those arrogant treasurers will not bear it no matter what." β
"What if...... Someone has made up the silver back, what should I do?" Su Wenmao asked suspiciously, a little worried that after Lord Tisi's reputation was shaken, those little monkeys would not have the courage to jump out.
"Punish the former and the latter, cure the sick and save the people. Fan Xian said very seriously: "I didn't violate the treasurer of Qingluli, as long as the silver is returned cleanly, I will naturally give him a chance to be a new person, I am here to manage the inner treasury, not to break the inner treasury." β
"Understood. β
"As for the enemy, we must divide it, sort it out, treat it separately, and unite what we can unite...... Look at who jumped out after three rΓ¬, and you can know who is rejecting the kindness of the official. Fan Xian smiled and said: "Not only for the treasurers, presumably the eldest princess's cronies who stayed in the inner treasury will not let go of such a great opportunity, in Xinyang's opinion, if I offend the treasurers, the inner treasury will naturally fall into paralysis, at this time, they will definitely jump out, you let the people around keep an eye on it for the past two days, and finally draw up a list, these unstable factors, I will ask them to leave one by one." β
Su Wenmao finally understood everything, Lord Tisi had to do a very thorough cleaning work, and went to the previous conversation in the garden, and said with a small meaning: "It's just ...... My lord, the deputy envoy is a person from the Ren Qi'an clan, and he can be trusted, but the Ye family?"
Fan Xian knew what he was worried about, according to the news from Kyoto, after the eldest prince married the eldest princess of Northern Qi, Ye Ling'er finally married the second prince, and the second prince also took this opportunity to be released from the house arrest mansion by the queen mother.
"Don't worry about anything, I didn't say much, just let that Ye Shen general pay attention to the route out of the warehouse recently, I won't be arrogant enough to subdue the people of the Ye family in a few words. β
Fan Xian laughed, what he asked Ye Shen to do was actually just to prevent the treasurers from taking advantage of the location and secretly transporting the silver they had swallowed over the years, although most of the stolen silver must have been used to buy land, but the title deed ...... The treasurer's spleen was decided, and it was only possible to keep it in their own home.
"And don't casually associate the Ye family with the second prince and the eldest princess. Fan Xian thought for a while and said: "The two Ye Qin families are known in the world, it is not as simple as ordinary people imagine, how can it be possible to unilaterally fall to a prince, it is too stupid." Even if he is inclined, but before the situation is clear, he will always sell me some face, and turn his face with me for a group of treasurers, unless Ye Chong really thinks that His Majesty did not send him farther. β
Su Wenmao was stunned, didn't say anything more, and took the order.
Fan Xian sat on the chair and fell into silence, and only sighed after a while, Ye Ling'er is married after all, what will happen to the second prince in the future? He is not a benevolent person, but in the tea shop outside the Baoyue Building, he once said that the reason why he wanted to knock the second prince into the dust was to leave him with a life, on the one hand, because of Ye Ling'er's relationship, on the other hand, he just subconsciously wanted to compete with the emperor who paid attention to iron-blooded child-rearing, see if you can play, or I will play!
In the past few months, the Ye family has been played by the emperor, and in no way, they have to get closer and closer to the second prince, thinking of this, Fan Xian is belly is fire, the emperor's foresight may be true, but as the emperor's suspicious bastard, it is even more true- It seems that people sitting in different positions have their own limitations, and the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, his limitations are that he is too suspicious, and he is tempted to give marriage first, and his unreasonable precautions gradually rise, and he is very shameless in the back, and he forces the Ye family to the opposite side of the prince!
Prince: Why did the third child follow him out of Beijing?
Emperor...... It's really not porridge, try to make some means that people can't see the purpose of the eyebrows. Fan Xian was a little distressed, and immediately comforted himself, his little bastard couldn't figure it out, maybe the old bastard was also messing up the battle, and he didn't necessarily understand.
As for why Fan Xian is extremely resolute in refusing to reconcile with his mother-in-law, it is not that he has suffered from many young sons-in-law in the process of falling in love, nor is it just the reason that Haitang said that he is "optimistic about the family business", the most practical reason is: If Fan Xian and the eldest princess really join forces, the strength of the two sides will be so strong that it will be very terrifying, and it will be enough to shake the foundation of Qingguo.
And this is definitely something that Emperor Qingguo cannot allow.
And for Fan Xian, who does not have the power of the world, the current policy of dealing with the world is only one that is extremely wise and foolish: if the emperor Lao Tzu does not allow it, he will never do it, unless someone wants to kill him.
In the two years after the βββββββββββββββββββββββββ, Fan Xian, the Qincha master who first arrived in the inner library, took his own close seven rings, and looked around the workshop, gradually became familiar with the process of the inner library, and added a sense of understanding to the momentum of the Ye family back then, and it was inevitable that he would sigh at the waterwheel next to the river, not full of vicissitudes, and occasionally sat down with the workers in the workshop to discuss, the way of blowing glass, but he was pitiful that his craftsmanship was too poor, his face was too beautiful, and the blowing was unsuccessful, but the glass texture was undoubtedly revealedγ
So it shook two rì, most of the workshops closer to the official office knew what the new adults looked like, for the legendary little Fan Lord, although they didn't dare to force their eyes, but the bitter haha people also peeked at a lot of carelessly, and they all said that this noble son was born really good-looking, that is, his hands and feet were clumsy, and he was also kind to people, and the seven Yahuan around him were all born like flowers and jade, but there was a girl who was really not good, and he walked with a lot of rural customs, where he looked like a girl from a big family.
On the other hand, the four lines of defense formed by the military and the Supervision Yuan suddenly stepped up the inspection work, and the inspection of the inner library was the most rigorous in the world.
It's a light piece of paper, but it's a heavy title deed.
As Fan Xian expected, the first reaction of the treasurers and relevant officials, including the heads of the three major squares, after the issuance of the three rì orders, was to find a way to transport the most valuable things around them and hand them over to relatives and friends outside the inner treasury.
But after a scrutiny of the search, the officials and treasurers finally despaired, knowing that the new Chincha would not allow his people to transfer their property, and the paper property remained with them...... Oh my God, if you don't make up the deficit after three years, won't you be robbed? And where will these people's bodies be clean, if Lord Qincha wants to find out his mistakes, it will be a dead word left and right!
The work of Shan Da and General Lin was obviously effective, and from the next day, no one tried to transfer the family property anymore, and a yΔ«n wind began to blow between the various mansions and the three major squares in the inner library, and as for who was the source of the blow, there were naturally spilled nails quietly inquiring.
It was a night when heavy rain fell in Fujian, and the river swelled, although there was no problem due to the fact that the embankment was real, but the atmosphere of yΔ«n wind roaring and turbidity waves emptying had begun to make many people feel strange.
Feeling the strong danger, the treasurers began to connect together, upper, middle and lower, a total of more than 200 treasurers, in the face of the "three rì orders" have their own plans, some people with a surviving conscience, ready to return the stolen money, new people, some people who are afraid of Fan Xian's power, began to secretly prepare to report the illegal affairs of their colleagues, to seek a clean slate for themselves, and more people began to gather in the main mansion of the three major squares, whispering how to deal with this matter.
After the three principals of the three major records were beaten to the board, they could only lie on the bed, although they were in three places, but the hatred of Fan Xian in their hearts and the resentment in their eyes were quite emotional, in short, they were unwilling to bow to Fan Xian, because they had done too many bad things, even if they bowed their heads, they were afraid that they would not be able to escape death in the future.
In the connection of these treasurers, Xinyang's henchmen who remained in the treasurer also played a very bad role, and in the name of Her Royal Highness the princess who was far away in Kyoto, he assured the treasurers that the first concern of the imperial court was still the production and profit of the inner treasury, not these small pieces of silver that you were greedy for.
What about one chopstick? What about ten chopsticks? In short, most of the treasurers finally hugged tightly and began to smash Fan Qincha, who seemed to know nothing but the United States, like a bowling ball.
............ On the last day of the three rì orders, Fan Xian followed the rules of the previous two days, and stayed in the official office in the morning to discuss matters, although the treasurers have not taken the initiative to confess their guilt in the past two days, but many of the officials have returned some silver.
There are also some treasurers who secretly confess their guilt and take the initiative to climb to the Supervision Yuan to be tainted witnesses, Fan Xian naturally laughed and accepted it, it seems that the other party is really not a whole iron plate, and the casting process of the inner library is indeed not up to par.
He drank tea, looked at the drizzle outside the hall, and thought in his heart that the heavy rain last night, Qingguo will not be flooded again this year, right? It seems that we have to hurry up for some time, otherwise I am afraid that the silver that my father wants will not have time to be transported to the banks of the river, and the embankment will collapse again.
"Your Excellency!"
A panicked voice exploded like a muffled thunderbolt, waking Fan Xian up from the thoughts of a saint.
Fan Xian was puzzled, and saw a bunch of officials in wet official uniforms running in, these officials were all people who went to various squares to publicize the deadline of the three rì orders today, why did they all run back?
The leader was the No. 2 person in the inner library, Ma Kai, the deputy envoy of the transfer department, who was shocked, pulled his placket, and broke in in a panic despite the wet shoes of the sewage on the ground.
"Master Ma, why are you so flustered?" Fan Xian looked at the other party, frowned slightly, and put Cao CΔo's score full.
"My lord, it's not good!" Although Ma Kai knew that the treasurers would definitely rebound against the three orders, but when he heard about this incident today, he couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly came to report to Fan Xian.
"Three squares...... Strike!"
............ Fan Xian was slightly stunned and stood on the stone steps in a daze.
Ma Kai thought that Lord Qincha was also shocked by the sudden bad news, wiped the rain on his face, and said with a wry smile: "This is good, this is good." β
In fact, Fan Xian did not kill anyone, and the means he used were not as bloody as the eldest princess back then, but the problem was that Fan Xian issued three orders, and he had the secret spy power that the eldest princess did not have, and then blocked the treasurer's plot to transfer the family property, and if he was really ready to swallow the silver money that the treasurer had withheld over the years.
What is silver money? Silver money is the life of the vast majority of the world, so the treasurers dare to use such an earth-shattering act as a strike to fight Fan Xian!
Fan Xian was just slightly stunned, and immediately woke up, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, in fact, he was surprised not that the treasurers reacted violently, he just thought, it turns out that there are also workers in this world...... "My lord, what should I do? Or take back the three orders first?" Ma Kai said with a look of anticipation, he very much disagreed with Fan Xian's three orders, and now the treasurers are really on strike, and as soon as the three major squares of the inner treasury are stopped, how much silver will the court lose? Even if your Fan Xian's family background is different from ordinary people, you are not afraid of the world's opinions, but ...... His Majesty won't spare you lightly!
To the surprise of Ma Kai and the officials, Fan Xian stroked the smooth hair on his head, moved his neck, and showed a faint excitement on his face: "Sure enough, I didn't disappoint this official, and I made a big move...... That's fine, wait for the official to catch up and kill them...... Clean, clean!"
"Huh?"
The officials stood stupidly in the drizzle, and a pair of swallows flew gently on the wooden beam of the yamen.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ the rain, Fan Xian wore a black sΓ¨ lotus coat of the Supervision Yuan, led the officials of the transfer department, a total of more than 20 people, and hurried to the outside of a large square in Jiafang, which was the first to shout a strike. The officials stood outside the workshop, and found that they couldn't hear the sound of the stove sizzling, and there was no black smoke coming out of the workshop, and there was a deathly silence.
No one knew that the Qi Nian group and the six swordsmen who followed Fan Xian to Jiangnan were already wearing raincoats and silently came to a place not far from Dafang to wait for orders.
In the distance, General Ye Shen had a calm face, clenched his fists, and spoke with Su Wenmao beside him with anxiety in his heart, but his mind was all in the big fang of today's strike, and behind the two of them, a battalion of officers and soldiers with swords and guns in hand were waiting.
The striking people of the first workshop are gathered in this large workshop, which still has the residual heat from last night, and this is the place where the glass is refined.
Fan Xian walked into the workshop with steady steps, looked up at the high top of the workshop, and said in admiration: "The rain prevention is good." β
The workers shrank in twos and threes, their faces full of horror, these lower-level workers naturally didn't know why they suddenly stopped work today, and looked at the newly arrived Lord Qincha, and their hearts were terrified.
In front of the workshop, more than a dozen treasurers dressed in green clothes forced themselves to bow to Fan Xian.
"Why hasn't work started?"
"It's good to teach adults to know. Director Xiao of Jiafang, who was still injured behind him, glanced at Fan Xian with resentment, "Last night, the rain was too heavy, and the furnace was extinguished and the mold was washed out, so there is no way to start work." β
The chief and the treasurer are not stupid, of course they know that they can't say the strike openly, otherwise if Fan Xian really goes crazy and kills all of his people with a knife, he also said it in the past, so he can only find some reasons, but in fact, he still threatens the other party with a strike.
This may be the so-called art of negotiation.
In terms of poetry, Fan Xian can be said to be an artist, but his own work is often destroying art without aesthetics, he said with a calm face: "The mold is ruined, the furnace is wet, what about Yifang? Is it possible that the molten steel that scalds people to death also condenses?
Without waiting for that Master Xiao to reply, he narrowed his eyes and said, "I think you treasurers are really rusty in your brains!"
There is no so-called negotiation at all, Fan Xian just needs someone to make trouble, and the replacement of the technical director of the inner library is imperative, how can he be willing to miss this opportunity.
"Come on, cut off the head of this Master Xiao for me, and use his blood to warm the stove. Fan Xian clapped his palms and said in harmony.
That Master Xiao was stunned for a moment, and didn't seem to understand what Lord Qincha meant.
As soon as Fan Xian's words fell, the officials of the Supervision Yuan wearing raincoats had already walked into the workshop, a subordinate lifted a chair for Fan Xian to sit down, and several others had cleanly kicked Director Xiao to the ground and pulled him to the stove about five zhang away from Fan Xian.
Fan Xian waved his hand.
The officials of the operation department behind him were in an uproar, and Deputy Envoy Ma Kai was in a hurry, and shouted in a panic: "My lord, I can't do it!"
And Master Xiao, who was pushed to the mouth of the furnace, finally woke up at this time, knowing that Lord Qincha really wanted to kill himself...... He began to struggle desperately, his feet rustling on the floating earth on the ground, and shouting with a crying voice: "Spare your life, your lord!"
There are many fools in the world, who can't see through the state of the world, and when they want to die, they beg for mercy, and it is inevitably too late.
The treasurers, who had been friends with Master Xiao, had their eyes split, and they rushed forward one after another, wanting to save Master Xiao.
With a bang, a snow-white knife light flashed!
A swarthy skull rolled into the furnace with bones, blood spurting out and striking against the furnace wall.
Countless screams erupted in the big square, and everyone was shocked by the bloody scene in front of them, and the little treasurers howled in pain and frightened, and at the same time restrained their steps in the lightning, and the instinct to survive finally defeated the frenzy in their hearts at this moment.
Fan Xian glanced at the corpse at the mouth of the furnace, and then looked at the hundreds of workers gathered together behind the workshop with frightened faces, and said calmly: "This official killed someone, so naturally there is a reason for killing people. β
