"Jinhua Sima's family, forty or fifty years ago, started by reselling goods, and has developed so far, it is already the home of Zhong Ming Dingshi. An official said, "Why did Lord Ning suddenly ask about this?"

Ning Caichen pondered for a moment and told him about his involvement with the Sima family, which made everyone present look at each other and be surprised.

"The family style is loose, the servants are murderous, and they are so protective and indiscriminate when they don't succeed, this Sima family master is so bold and has a big temper. In the silence of everyone, Luo Yinghao slapped the table and said sharply.

"I think there may be some misunderstandings in this, the head of the Sima family may have listened to the villain's slander to do such a foolish thing. "Among the officials, there are also those who have usually received filial piety from the Sima family, and they speak out at this time.

The prefect raised his eyes and looked at Ning Caichen: "It's just a businessman's family, whether there is a misunderstanding in this depends on what Mr. Ning means." ”

The officials were shocked, their eyes swept over the two of them, and their hearts were strange.

What does Mr. Kanning mean? The prefect's words are lighthearted, but the meaning they represent is absolutely extraordinary. This is equivalent to handing over the fate of the entire Sima family to Ning Caichen, and the survival of the entire family is all in his thoughts.

In the complicated expressions of the officials, Ning Caichen's face was calm, and he was not shocked: "I am not the kind of narrow-minded person, and I don't have the idea of letting others destroy their families and destroy their families because of a little grievance." What I have is a scale in my heart, and I have kindness to repay kindness and revenge. The manager of the Sima family, Liu, wanted to set fire to me and burn me to death, but he didn't succeed, so he was burned to death. This Sima family master does not distinguish between right and wrong, black and white, and wants to kill me directly, but he still hasn't succeeded......"

At this point, he paused abruptly, but everyone present understood what he meant, and many people were chilled.

He said that he was a magnanimous person, but between his words, he wanted to rely on his power to force the Sima family master to death, this Ning Caichen was definitely not good!

In the future, I will still have two more eyes, and don't fold on this ruthless junior.

"The head of the Sima family colluded with the White Lotus Sect and intended to murder the imperial court officials, and he should be beheaded according to the law. However, Ben Fu Nian made contributions to Jinhua in the Sima family over the years, and then left his whole body, strangled him to commit suicide, and the five products were supervised by Lord Ning in the matter. The prefect narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

There was silence. Ning Caichen was silent, savoring the changes brought to him by power, imagining in his mind the power of the ancient emperor, with the Heavenly Constitution in his mouth, and the majesty of judging the fate of all living beings in one word.

In the middle of the afternoon, when the banquet was over, Ning Caichen went out with the prefect's edict and came to the sedan chair with Luo Yinghao.

"During the banquet, I have already sent people to surround Sima Mansion, and the virtuous nephew can go with me now. Luo Yinghao turned his head and stretched out his hand to signal the two to share a sedan chair.

Ning Caichen was slightly stunned, and turned to bow: "Uncle has a heart, and the little nephew feels deeply." ”

"It's just a gesture. Luo Yinghao chuckled and took the lead in the sedan chair: "Let's talk while walking." ”

Ning Caichen stepped into the sedan chair and sat beside him slightly unnaturally: "For the uncle, this is a gesture, and for the little nephew, this is the greatest help." ”

Luo Yinghao smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't say these foreign words." I invited you to share a sedan chair because I remembered that there were still some things I hadn't told you, so I had to let you know as soon as possible. ”

"Uncle, please. ”

"What do you know about the group of speech officials?" Luo Yinghao asked rhetorically.

Ning Caichen's face was serious: "I only know that the power of this group is very large, and it can admonish the emperor, speak left and right, impeach hundreds of officials, and inspect the locality, in some ways, it can be called a walking law." ”

If we only know this, we may be in trouble in the future. Luo Yinghao said solemnly: "Yanguan is a group, which is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the rights between each class are even more different. ”

Ning Caichen sat up straight: "Please also ask my uncle to explain in detail." ”

"The Yanguan is a group of independent officials and other than the six hundred officials, serving the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the rank is also different from that of ordinary officials, and it is divided into five grades in total. The lowest rank is the Five Rank Giving Thing, which is your current official position. The terms of reference may be based on the inspection of a county, and the county's officials may be punished in accordance with the law.

Above you, it is the four products that are all given to the matter, and you can check one state. On top of it, there is a three-grade imperial envoy, who can inspect a house. The imperial envoy is the imperial envoy of the second grade, and he can check a province. The highest rank is the first-class imperial envoy Zhongcheng, and only this official position can admonish the emperor, speak left and right, and impeach hundreds of officials. ”

Ning Caichen touched his chin: "I didn't expect that my current authority can only be used to inspect one county, and I thought that I could punish the officials of Jinhua Mansion according to law." ”

"Now you understand why I said that before, right?" Luo Yinghao said: "With your current rank, going to the trouble of the government officials is purely to make trouble for yourself, so you need to take advantage of the situation now to complete what you want to accomplish, and by the way, accumulate merit for yourself to prepare for promotion." ”

Ning Caichen pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Although I didn't know these before, for the sake of convenience, I also kept taking advantage of the situation. For example, this communiqué's personal vendetta is to borrow the power of the prefect and your uncle. ”

"If you know these things, you just know them. Luo Yinghao said slowly: "Remember, don't join any faction, otherwise you will be mired in the quagmire of official fighting." ”

"I understand. Ning Caichen said: "Actually, I know very well in my heart that my avenue is not in the officialdom and court, but in the rivers and lakes. Jinhua Mansion is just my starting point, not a place for me to explain my time. ”

"You might go further. Luo Yinghao sighed slightly: "If Luo Fu can have half of your ambitions, I don't have to worry about his future." ”

Thinking of the fat man's image of being lazy and lustful to the bone marrow, Ning Caichen had no choice but to comfort him against his will: "Yuanqiu's nature is not bad, as long as he has an epiphany, he will definitely be able to be reborn." ”

Luo Yinghao smiled reluctantly: "I hope that the masters of Duobao Mountain can teach him well." ”

During the conversation, the sedan chair gradually stopped, and Ning Caichen followed Luo Yinghao to get off the sedan chair and came to the mansion surrounded by government soldiers.

"Lord Luo, what do you mean by this?" Seeing Ning Caichen's figure, standing behind the gate of the mansion, in front of all the family servants, there was a haze in the heart of the Sima family master who was in a stalemate with the palace soldiers.

"Today I'm just a spectator, he's the main character. Luo Yinghao turned sideways and asked Ning Caichen to step forward.

"Master Sima, haven't you forgotten what I said to you when I left here?" Ning Caichen said softly.

The head of the Sima family clenched his fists, and his gaze swept over the soldiers holding guns and sticks: "Who are you and what do you want to do now?"

"I'm here to read the prefect's edict. Ning Caichen took out the edict written to him by the prefect from his bosom, and his face was serious: "The head of the Sima family colluded with the White Lotus Sect and intended to murder the imperial court official...... He was ordered to commit suicide in order to preserve his body. ”

"This is a frame-up, a frame-up!" the head of the Sima family's face turned red, and he roared: "How can I ever do anything to collude with the White Lotus Sect, and the murder of the imperial court officials is even more nonsense. ”

"Nonsense?" Ning Caichen said in a deep voice: "You dare to say that you didn't make a move against this official?"

As far as I know, there is no such thing as you in Jinhua officialdom. The head of the Sima family shouted loudly.

Ning Caichen smiled, and his voice was cold: "When did I say that I am an official of Jinhua?" This official is a five-grade official, and the court officials and saints cannot be killed, but you want to kill me, isn't it murdering the court officials?"

The head of the Sima family was full of horror: "How is this possible, you look like you are just a scholar from a poor family......

"Just because you judge people by their appearance and think that I am just a poor scholar, will you want to kill me because of a slave, right?" Ning Caichen said coldly: "I won't say much to you, the prefect's edict is here, I hope the master of the Sima family will go on the road as soon as possible." ”

A flash of fear flashed in the eyes of the Sima family master, and he staggered back with a pale face, retreated into the crowd, and shouted hoarsely to the slaves: "Close the door for me and stop the officers and soldiers." ”

"I don't know whether to live or die!" Luo Yinghao waved his hand: "Arrest the master of the Sima family, life and death do not matter." ”

Forced by the past obscenity, the servants of the Sima family desperately closed the door, blocking the footsteps of the soldiers with sticks, knives and guns in their hands, and won the opportunity for the Sima family master to escape.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the head of the Sima family quickly disappeared in front of the door and entered the inner courtyard. When the soldiers took down all the slaves and searched for Sima's family, they couldn't find any trace of him.

"There is a great fear between life and death. In the face of death, this Sima family master was decisively abandoning his family and fleeing in a hurry......" In the main hall of the Sima family, Luo Yinghao shook his head and said.

Ning Caichen stood in the hall: "It's a normal thing, it's a pity that we don't have a master here." ”

"The goal has not been completed, what are you going to do?" Luo Yinghao looked out of the room, and everyone in the Sima family was escorted out at this time, surrounded by the tip of the bright silver spear.

"Brother Ning, the disaster will not hurt the family, I hope you can see my face and let go of the Sima family. A rush of footsteps came, and Yun Fusheng's figure appeared in the courtyard and was stopped by the government soldiers.

Ning Caichen walked out of the main hall and arched his hand at him: "Senior Yun, please rest assured, the junior is not the kind of bloody and brutal person, and it will not hurt the rest of the Sima family. However, the Sima family mainly killed me first, and now I am waiting for the crime to escape, I can only report to the prefect and want him all over the country, hoping that my predecessors can understand. ”

"Even if what you say is true, but my father didn't kill you, why do you want him?" said a skinny young man resentfully.

Ning Caichen glanced at him coldly, which immediately made him shiver: "You mean to say that only after he kills me can he be convicted and wanted?"
