Xu Ping frowned and said, "Lord Qincha said this, but there must be empirical evidence. ”

Yang Fan laughed and said: "Lord Xu can say maybe, can't Ben Qincha be? If there is no evidence, then go and investigate, this is at least a suspicious point, Lord Xu and Lord Fang are both imperial histories, are you willing to let Lord Fang die in vain?"

Xu Ping arched his hand and said: "Since there are suspicious points, then it is natural to investigate, but what does this have to do with Lord Qincha asking for bribes?"

The topic was far away from Yang Fan, but the imperial historians basically have one characteristic, that is, stubbornness, Xu Pingke did not forget what happened just now.

Yang Fan patted his sleeves, made a two-sleeved breezy appearance, and said with a smile: "Do you see that I have accepted bribes? Also, even if someone really gives me 18,000 silver, I will also record it in the account of Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei is the eyes and ears of the emperor, Jinyiwei's money, that is naturally the emperor's money, filial piety to the emperor, can that be called a bribe? At most, it is called a donation, and if someone wants to donate, I can't leave it alone." ”

Xu Ping said dissatisfiedly: "You are a strong word, the emperor trusts you and entrusts you as a messenger, you only care about making money, you are ashamed of the emperor." ”

The other officials laughed and said nothing, dealing with Yang Fan's lawlessness, that is, they should let the imperial historian disgust him.

Lu Chaosheng was pondering, this Yang Fan brought hundreds of brocade guards to Qingnan, but he was afraid that it was not as simple as just inspecting river affairs.

As soon as Yang Fan entered Qingnan, he said that the political envoy Du was the person of King Ning, and now he said the suspicion of Fang Yushi's death, it seems that Yang Fan is here and prepared, not as it seems on the surface, like a stunned young man.

Yang Fan snorted and said: "Lord Xu is going to spew blood, if you suspect that I Yang Fan is corrupt and bribery, even if I go to investigate, after talking for so long, I am also a little thirsty, Lord Lu, didn't you want to respect me just now, I will do it first." ”

Yang Fan picked up the teacup, drank it in one gulp, and said, "This tea is good, it's quite thirst-quenching." ”

Everyone was speechless for a while, so they had to raise their wine glasses and salute in return.

Yang Fan sat in the chief position, picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.

"Don't look at it, talk about things, you still have to eat. ”

As soon as Yang Fan came to Qingnan, he ridiculed Lu Chaosheng, then blamed Du Gao, and then Yao Sheng, these people are all bigwigs in Qingnan officialdom.

Lu Chaosheng smiled bitterly, sat next to Yang Fan as a companion, no matter how uncomfortable he was, this Yang Fan was still bad.

After eating, Yang Fan looked at Lu Chaosheng and said with a smile: "Lord Lu, now that you have eaten and drunk, should you take me to your little harem to see and understand?"

Lu Chaosheng smiled, and said embarrassedly: "It's just a rumor, how can Yang Qincha be taken seriously." ”

Xia Xun had already found out that Lu Chaosheng had a house on Fugui Street, which was where the rumored small harem was located, and he had already asked Xia Liu to inform Yang Fan of the matter.

Yang Fan said with a smile: "Lord Lu is in that house on Fugui Street, but there are many beautiful women, why don't you take me to see it?"

Lu Chaosheng's expression was shocked, this Yang Fan even found out the location.

"What is the purpose of Lord Chincha's coming?"

A governor raising a few concubines outside, even if he talks about heaven, he is behaving disorderly at most, but when he says it, it is a bit exaggerated.

Yang Fan waved his hand and said: "You don't care why I'm here, since I'm here, you should always entertain this emperor appointed by the emperor, I just want to go to Lord Lu's house for a long time, why doesn't Lord Lu allow it, could it be that there are some invisible people in it?"

Lu Chaosheng lowered his face and said in a deep voice: "That's a private house." ”

Yang Fan did not flinch: "A private house can block Qincha's driving?"

Lu Chaosheng's face was pale, and he looked at Yang Fan with a murderous expression.

Other officials also smelled the smell of gunpowder in the air, Qin Cha and the governor were not on good terms, maybe Qin Cha couldn't do anything to the governor, but Qin Cha was unhappy, according to Yang Fan's temperament, other officials might be unlucky.

A red-robed official stepped forward to persuade: "Lord Lu, since Lord Qincha wants to go, let him go." ”

The red-robed official whispered to Governor Lu's ear and whispered.

The corners of Governor Lu's mouth sobbed, and he said indignantly: "Since Yang Qincha wants to go, this official is willing to fulfill it." ”

Yang Fan laughed and said, "That's right." ”

Fugui Street, which is the place where Qingnan dignitaries and local gentry gather, is not as lively as the main street, and the street looks depressed, but the houses are beautifully decorated.

Yang Fan asked Ouyang Tao to lead the Jinyi Guard and the Qincha Honor Guard to the post house to rest, and followed Lu Chaosheng to the house on Fugui Street alone, accompanied by the red-robed official.

Lu Chaosheng also admired Yang Fan's courage in his heart, he talked and laughed in the face of Qingnan officials, and he was not afraid, and now he dared to go to the appointment alone.

Of course, as the governor of Qingnan, he will definitely not make a black hand against Qin Cha behind his back, Qin Cha has an accident in Qingnan, and he, the governor, cannot get away with it.

The house of the governor of the road, from the outside decoration, is not outstanding at all in this rich street, but when you walk inside, it is like entering another world, rockery, pavilion, garden, etc. are all available, the so-called birds and flowers, in addition, even if it is a girl who pours tea and water, it is also very beautiful.

Yang Fan sighed: "If I can live here all the time, even if I am asked to do it by a god, I am reluctant to leave." ”

Lu Chaosheng said with a smile: "If Yang Qincha likes it, he will live here." ”

Yang Fan shook his head: "I would like to, but I came to Qingnan this time, but I have official business." ”

Lu Chaosheng said with a smile: "The construction of the canal is on the right track, and Lord Yang can go to see it occasionally." ”

Yang Fan: "Lord Lu, Ming people don't say secret words, I came this time, in addition to inspecting river affairs, I also want to investigate the case of Fang Wenzheng's murder." ”

Lu Chaosheng looked stunned, although he had already guessed, he didn't expect Yang Fan to be so straightforward with him.

"Isn't the case of Fang Yushi's murder already closed?"

Yang Fan said solemnly: "Before Fang Yushi was killed, he once sent a letter to his son who was studying medicine, saying that he was investigating a corruption case, involving important ministers in the court, and Fang Yushi's son went to Kyoto to complain, and happened to be bumped into by the official, so he asked the emperor to come to Qingnan. ”

Lu Chaosheng was a little drumming in his heart, Yang Fan asked the emperor, and the emperor actually agreed, obviously to inspect the river affairs, but in fact, to investigate the murder of Fang Yushi, the emperor has a lot of trust in Yang Fan.

Since the emperor wants to intervene in this matter, he has to put himself in the right position.

"Why did Yang Qincha inform this official?"

Yang Fan said lightly: "Lord Lu's reputation in Qingnan is okay, Lord Lu should have nothing to do with the murder of Fang Yushi, right?"

Lu Chaosheng: "If Fang Yushi really died in the investigation of the case, then the official is the governor of Qingnan, and it is difficult to escape the blame." ”
