Chapter 469: Xu Gongwen Chang

Burn the prison! This is a major event that has not happened in the capital for many years! The degree of shock is comparable to digging a hole in the palace wall!

Zhang Juzheng was woken up by the housekeeper when he was sleeping soundly with his mother in his arms, and after listening to it, he fell out of bed in fright, and almost rushed out in his mother's shirt.

After he changed back into his clothes, he heard the following: the prison was set on fire by the cell boss and two guards.

And after igniting the fire, he absconded in fear of crime, ran to the princess's courtyard to hide, and was taken down by Lord Xiao and Lord Lu on the spot.

Zhang Juzheng's trembling body magically stopped shaking, and even smiled, and began to change into official clothes in a good time, preparing to go to the scene to investigate.

The housekeeper was puzzled: "Master, you were so anxious just now, why are you so calm all of a sudden?" Zhang Juzheng smiled: "If an outsider goes to the prison of the Criminal Department to set fire, it is the mismanagement of the official, and he should be jointly and severally responsible." But these three guards set fires, but they were different. The three guards are all people set by Liutai, and the official has only been in office for a short time, so this board can't hit me anyway. Zhang Juzheng's expectation was good, while Jiajing was shocked, the first thing was naturally to ask Lu Bing about the cause and effect, and Lu Bing naturally answered truthfully.

After hearing this, Jiajing was furious, and immediately ordered someone to call Zhang Juzheng and Liutai to scold, but the main firepower output was aimed at Liutai.

Yan Song was in a hurry beside him, and he couldn't say anything for Liutai, so he could only keep persuading Jiajing to dissipate his anger and take care of the dragon's body.

What can he say? A few days after Zhang Juzheng became the boss, the cell head and guards of the prison were all arranged by Liutai!

It's just that Yan Song and Liu Tai just wanted to break their heads, and they couldn't understand why these guys suddenly went crazy and ran away with a fire to the prison.

Lu Bing didn't hide it, saying that the cell boss killed the two guards, and after being captured, he opened his mouth and said that it was the prison where Xiao Feng instructed them to burn, and said that Xiao Feng would arrange for them to escape.

Jiajing smiled angrily: "It seems that I haven't cared much about these little things in the past two years, so they really treat me as a dumb king who can be bullied?" is to frame Xiao Feng, shouldn't you also make up a better reason? Why did Xiao Feng do this? Why did they listen to Xiao Feng so much? Could it be that Xiao Feng is his long-lost son? Or does Xiao Feng look young, but in fact, he is a lot older, but he is actually his own father? My memory is not so bad, after the bloody battle in the Heavenly Prison before, the cell boss has been helping Yan Shifan to speak. Aside from being his own father, what reason can make him turn so fast? "In fact, there is a better reason, that is, to tell the truth, and the causes and consequences are clearly explained.

But the most important thing is that no matter whether Jiajing believes it or not, the cell boss can't tell the truth. Because to tell the truth, it was Xiao Feng who found someone to pretend to be Yan Shifan's people, instructed them to set fire to the prison, and then told them to hide in the princess's mansion and send them out of the city at dawn.

In this way, the focus of the problem has changed: since they were deceived by Yan Shifan's people who were pretending to be Yan Shifan, it means that they believed that Yan Shifan would let them do this, so they would do it.

They believed that Yan Shifan would let them do this, indicating that Yan Shifan might indeed do this. So why did Yan Shifan do this?

The matter of sending them to run away is still reasonable, after all, they were beneficial to Yan Shifan when they testified, and in order to prevent Xiao Feng from retaliating, it was also affectionate and righteous to help the three of them get out.

But why did they let them burn down the prison? And they thought it was a good idea and implemented it seriously?

The prisoners in the prison are all speaking for Yan Shifan, why did Yan Shifan burn them? If you think about this question further, it is not a small problem!

The cell boss was loyal to Yan Shifan, so he killed the two guards to prevent them from being lax. At this time, it is natural that he will not say such a thing again, which will cause a catastrophe to Yan Shifan.

So he didn't care if it was logical or not, and he insisted that Xiao Feng let him do it. The more he said this, the more annoyed Jiajing became, and if he had to ask Lu Bing to ask one, two, three, Lu Bing was helpless, knowing that he couldn't ask, he could only go back and put pressure on Lao Chang.

Lao Chang was very excited, the first time he met a treasure like the Black Rakshasa was not only hard bones, but the key was that this person knew the goods, could understand himself, and his skills were no worse than his own.

Because the tooth was pulled out by Lao Chang as soon as possible to prevent him from biting his tongue and committing suicide, Black Rakshasa could only scold Lao Chang with his toothless mouth open.

"You sent it, and you played it like that? Ahh You sent it, and there was something else to mourn the fourth child, ahhh "So Lao Chang used eighteen kinds of martial arts on the Black Rakshasa and tossed the Black Rakshasa every day to death, but it was to ensure that he couldn't die.

The Black Rakshasa also regretted it, he thought that he was enough to despise the world's torture methods, as long as he persisted for a few days, after Yan Shifan learned about it, he might still have a way to live.

But I didn't expect that Lao Chang was really skilled, and new tricks were emerging one after another, and the Black Rakshasa couldn't die even if he wanted to die now, and could only enjoy endless pain every day that surpassed the limits of human beings.

On the fourth day, the Black Rakshasa couldn't take it anymore and was forced to tell the truth about the modified part.

"Yan Sixa promised me that I would help him testify with this medicine, and he would keep me safe, so I believed in that fake. He shrunk Xiao Feng, Zhang Wuxin, and An Qingyue came back to kill me and asked me to hide in the empty yard. He let him light it, and the two guards secretly lit it, I suspect that the four of them were bought by Xiao Feng, so I scattered them! This logically makes sense.

But Xiao Feng quit, and ran to Jiajing every day to shout grievances, saying that he had been tarnished out of thin air, and he was really wronged.

"Lord Lu and his subordinates can testify, during this time, I invited guests to dinner every day, and I also invited Lord Lu and several of his subordinates to drink that day. How dare I think about it! Lord Lu can naturally testify that during the whole process, the three people he said had never left the Xiao Mansion! Besides, there are a few people around me, everyone knows them, you let him tell me, who deceived him? Besides, is he that easily deceived? Jiajing felt that his junior brother had indeed been wronged, so he pressured Lu Bing again, Lu Bing pressured Lao Chang again, and Chang Chang had to challenge the limits of medicine again.

When Lao Chang almost turned the Black Rakshasa into a skeleton, the miracle of medicine finally came to an abrupt end, and the Black Rakshasa was still dead, after all, he was also flesh and blood.

In fact, with such poor sanitary conditions in the Imperial Prison, it is already the limit that he can be tossed like this for seven days, and he has not dug up an updated explanation until he dies.

With the death of the Black Rakshasa , the three main culprits in the Heavenly Prison case all atonement for their lives were meted out for. As for what he said, there is no evidence, so it is naturally considered nonsense.

What else can I do? Yan Shifan was far away in Jiangxi, and the Black Rakshasa also kept saying that it had nothing to do with him.

The Black Rakshasa said that Xiao Feng did it, and you don't believe it. So such a big case was closed in such a mess, except for the death of three guards, that is, Liutai was demoted by one level, and Cheng Lang was hit.

Then Lu Pingshan received another big job - to build a prison for the Criminal Department. Jiajing was ruthless and put forward very high standards and requirements.

It is required that this prison not only cannot be broken in by a few cats and dogs to kill people, but also requires fire prevention!

Zhang Juzheng told Lu Pingshan: "Long live has already spoken, don't think about the cost, what materials are easy to use, the household department will naturally allocate the silver to the household department." Lu Pingshan nodded: "Don't worry, don't you worry, isn't it a solid fireproof, as long as you don't limit the spending of silver, are you afraid that you won't be able to do it?" The blue stone wall, the white soup triple soil plastering joints, the three layers of green tiles, the fish scales are built one by one, and whoever wants to remove one piece has to take off two pieces! When the time comes, don't talk about fire prevention and thief prevention, even if you push the cannon, you can resist a few shots! The three floors of the princess's mansion are according to this standard! On the day the princess moved into the princess's mansion, Xiao Feng went to the WTO Accession Temple to see a batch of newly cast cannonballs, and Hu Zongxian's transport team had been waiting in the temple for several days.

The cannonballs were loaded onto the cart and had to be pulled all the way to Tongzhou before they could be boarded, and Xiao Feng sent them all the way out of the mountain gate of the World View and gave a deep salute to one person in the cart of the transport team.

"Mr. Xu, this incident is due to Mr. Duo. Hu Zongxian can have a friend like you, and I am completely relieved about the affairs of Jiangnan. The people in the cart laughed: "Lord Xiao, Xu Weiben is a scholar who has fallen into the top of the list, and he has the blue eyes of Brother Ruzhen, and he is regarded as a teacher and friend, which is ashamed." This time to escort the shells, I came with the team, one is to see the scenery of the north, and the other is to see the adult, I have heard about the adult for a long time, how can I not see it? At first sight, I knew at first sight why Brother Ruzhen respected the adults. Xu Wei has a fate with adults, and he has lived this life in vain. As for the credit, Xu Wei didn't dare to take credit, the adults were strategizing, and the strategy was brilliant, but he was just relying on his face to help say a few words. Xiao Feng said solemnly: "Mr. Xu doesn't have to be too humble. I had already thought of this plan on Chinese New Year's Eve, but I have not been able to implement it, that is, no one else. The people around me all know it, so naturally they can't. But there are a large number of fresh faces in Wudang and Tianci Commercial Bank, but I dare not use them. It's not that I can't trust them, it's that it's too difficult. Even if I have the fan and the pill of bliss that I forged as tokens, the Black Rakshasa is from the rivers and lakes, so he is naturally not a gullible person. It is too difficult to find a person who can go straight to the prison alone, face such wicked people, be confident, talk eloquently, confuse the real with the false, and sway freely. It wasn't until Mr. showed up that I knew it could be done! Mr. is a great talent in the world, today I have a small test, and when I return to Jiangnan, I still need Mr. to help me do big things! Xu Wei arched his hand: "But if you have a life, it is incumbent!" The big convoy walked away, Xiao Feng stood at the mountain gate, looked at the direction where the convoy disappeared, and watched for a long, long time.

When Yan Shifan heard the news in the capital, he was taken aback, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the Black Rakshasa and the two guards were dead, and the case was closed.

He did leave an eyeliner in Beijing, but now Yanfu's goal is too big, and now the eyeliner is for the convenience of raising pigeons, so he doesn't dare to live in the city, and the reaction speed to the news in the city is naturally a little slow.

After reading the news, Yan Shifan almost didn't hesitate to see that this was a pit dug by Xiao Feng. Fortunately, he didn't misunderstand Black Rakshasa and didn't betray himself.

It's just that he is also short of manpower now, and he originally wanted to sneak the Black Rakshasa to his side to enrich his strength after passing the limelight, but now he is completely out of action.

When he was not angry, the servant reported that Zhao Wenhua asked to see him. Yan Shifan frowned, but still asked someone to bring him in.

When Zhao Wenhua came in, Yan Shifan was startled, if it wasn't too familiar, he would almost think that someone had come in to ask for food.

"You, you won't! How did you become an official all these years? Is it a shame to be on this part? Zhao Wenhua's face was pale and dusty, although he was not in rags, but he was indeed wrinkled, and when he saw the top mansion of his godbrother, he couldn't help but feel sad and cried loudly.

"Donglou, don't you know, I have worked hard all my life, and I have actually saved more than 100,000 taels of silver. After Jin Yiwei finished raiding the house, I was left with a few thousand taels of silver tickets. Yan Shifan frowned: "Even if it's only a few thousand taels, you won't be like this, I thought you had no official position, and you wanted to join the beggar gang and find another future." Zhao Wenhua wiped his tears: "Do you think I came all the way and there were no beggars to talk to me?" They also said, "Seeing that I'm a scholar, you can give me four straight ups!" Zhao Wenhua's tone actually brought out a little pride, Yan Shifan couldn't help but want to scold him, you are a proud fart, not to mention the four bags of straight up, you have nothing to be proud of even if you become a gang leader!

"You don't have to sell miserably with me, I was also raided, but I didn't keep all the money at home, so naturally I still have some left, and it looks more generous than you." Zhao Wenhua is in a hurry, what do you mean?

Don't want to admit it? You've been eye-to-eye with me in the main hall! Didn't you say you were going to pay my debt for me?

"Donglou, you can't say that, you're a skinny camel bigger than a horse. If I hadn't owed a lot of debt to the court, I wouldn't have lived so badly! You don't know, those magistrates don't talk about face at all! Staring at my house every day, even if you go to the street to buy catties of meat, you will come to the house to collect debts that night! My family doesn't even dare to eat tofu now, and the thousands of taels of silver on my body were also exposed a few days ago, and they were taken away to pay off the debt, and now I really have nothing! Yan Shifan thought about it and felt that he still couldn't force his godbrother to be in a hurry, so he took out a silver ticket from his arms.

"This is a thousand taels, you take it first, and go home. You have traveled thousands of miles back to Cixi this way, and I am afraid that you will be robbed of your wealth with you. You go back to Cixi first, I also have some industries in Hangzhou, and then I will let someone send you money. "Of course Zhao Wenhua doesn't do it, what about you who is asking for food?

Back then, Tan Xinren asked me for more than that!

"Donglou, you can't solve the fundamental problem like this. I owe 150,000 taels of silver to the imperial court, and if this debt is not paid off, my children and grandchildren will have to pay it back in the future! I can't let my children and grandchildren be born in debt and live their lives just to pay off their debts. Donglou, you give me 150,000 taels, and I will settle it once. In the future, even if it is coarse tea and light rice, male ploughing and female weaving, I will admit it. It's better to live a poor life than to pay back money for the court for several lifetimes! A hint of coldness flashed across Yan Shifan's face, but then he laughed.

"It turns out that brother, you have this in mind. 150,000 taels is not a decimal number, and I can't make it up for a while. "Where is Zhao Wenhua willing to believe?

He knows very well how thick Yan Shifan's family background is, Lu Bing's copying of the house is to copy the fur, and the fat on his godbrother's body is still fat.

"Donglou, just this once, I don't expect to make a comeback, but I have to fight for future generations! In my life, even if I can't glorify my ancestors, if even my descendants are pitted, how can I still have the face to see my ancestors after I die? Yan Shifan's heart sank, Zhao Wenhua's words sounded pitiful, but there was actually a hidden murderous intention.

I don't expect to make a comeback, that is, don't use my godfather as the prime minister to appease me.

I don't expect you Yan family to be officials. Fight hard for future generations, that is to say, I dare to work hard, if you don't help me pay off my debts, I will fight hard!

How can I still have the face to see my ancestors after death, that is to say, I am not afraid of death now, I am not thinking about what happened when I was alive, but what happened after death!

Yan Shifan's face instantly became amiable, and he drove the car over and patted Zhao Wenhua's shoulder affectionately.

"Brother, what you said is out of sight! With my father here, it is only a matter of time before you and I make a comeback and fight again hand in hand. As for the debt, you don't have to worry, I will let people raise silver taels, and within half a month, it will be sent to your home, so that you can pay off your debts and be rich! Zhao Wenhua was overjoyed, thanked him again and again, and said that he would go back to his hometown and wait.

Yan Shifan grabbed him and rebuked him cordially.

"What are you doing here, the journey is so far away, I asked someone to prepare a pack for my brother. Rest for the night tonight, it's not too late to leave tomorrow, come on, prepare a feast! For a while, a large table was set up for the delicacies, and Zhao Wenhua had not been stained with meat for a long time, his eyes were straight, and his saliva came down.

Look at others, they have committed so many sins and done so many evils, but they are still glorious and rich, and they are beautiful women.

Look at yourself again, but you are greedy for some money, and you don't dare to do anything that hurts nature and morality, and you end up like a beggar!

So when you are an official, you have to be a big official, and you have to be the first assistant. No, it's not enough to be the first assistant, Xia Yan is still the first assistant, and he has to be the emperor's confidant and friend.

Just look at Yan Song and Xiao Feng, long live how tolerant it is, how moisturizing the days are, it is really an endless delicacy, an endless year!

Zhao Wenhua sighed with emotion, and on the other hand, he was not afraid that Yan Shifan would poison him. First, he felt that Yan Shifan would not poison himself for silver, and secondly, after he became a big debtor, Jin Yiwei was quite concerned about himself.

If he really dies in Yan Shifan's mansion, the Yan family will also be burned! Yan Shifan really didn't mean to poison him, and accompanied him to eat with a smile, so that he gradually poured wine for the two of them and raised his glass frequently.

"Brother, do you remember this wine? Miao Jiang's Baihua Fairy Wine! When you gave it to my father, I had two altars buried in Jiangxi at that time. Today, I will use this wine to wash the dust for my brother, and my brother can rest assured, with my father here, we will definitely be able to make a comeback! Zhao Wenhua was so excited that he burst into tears, drank a few drinks with Yan Shifan, and went to sleep drunk.

Early the next morning, Zhao Wenhua left Yanfu full of hope, got on the hired ship, and sailed in the direction of his hometown.
