Chapter 104 Teacher

  Chapter 104:

   Tang Yin\'s face was full of sincerity, he stood up immediately, bowed down again and said: "If Master has a way, can you try to rescue Xu Jing?"

  He really has no way out.

  Originally he was a foreigner, even if he was selected as a Gongsheng student, he didn’t have any foundation in the capital here, so he thought about it, isn’t his teacher the son of Nan Hebo? And now he is working in Zhan Shifu, maybe...the teacher has a way?

   As he spoke, his eyes were reddish, and his eyes were pleading.

  Fang Jifan couldn\'t help but think in his heart, Xiao Tang is still a very loyal person, just like the three of Ouyang Zhi.

  So, Fang Jifan couldn\'t help but feel a little bit flustered. Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black. Why do my disciples talk about loyalty like this? This is because Fang Jifan\'s righteousness is so thin.

but…

  Rescue Xu Jing, are you kidding me?

However, any fraud case in the imperial examination, such a big matter, before it is investigated, it is almost unreasonable to say who touches who dies. Xiao Tang must have been beaten stupid by himself. He really thought he could scare the pee A capital head of Shuntian Mansion can go to Jinyiwei and influence the imperial examination fraud case.

Fang Jifan has not yet reached this level. In fact, as the son of Nanhe, the banner official of the Habayashi Guard, the winner of the golden belt, and the holder of Shangfang\'s sword, Fang Jifan\'s heart is like a mirror. Untouchable.

   "Okay, let\'s try to rescue the teacher, but... this matter must be kept secret."

  Fang Jifan readily agreed.

   Tang Yin was stunned, looking at Fang Jifan in shock, his mentor...agreed!

With a grateful expression on his face, he quickly nodded like he was pecking rice, and couldn\'t help sobbing: "Thank you teacher, the teacher\'s kindness is as heavy as a mountain, and the student is smashed to pieces, so it\'s hard to report what happened. If Brother Xu can survive, he must be allowed to come when the time comes." Thank you Master for saving your life."

  Fang Jifan groaned, but he was thinking in his heart, at this time, everyone must think that Xu Jing must die.

   After all, Xu Jing has already pleaded guilty, and although Cheng Minzheng refused to admit it to death, Jin Yiwei already has evidence of the money exchange between the two.

In everyone\'s impression, this is a case of imperial approval, and Jin Yiwei has made another move. Given the convincing evidence, the only end for Cheng Minzheng and Xu Jing is to be dragged to Caishikou and cut off. If the luck is even worse, I\'m afraid It is also possible to copy the house.

   But Fang Jifan knew that Emperor Hongzhi did not indiscriminately, but carefully compared the confession and evidence, and finally asked Li Dongyang to investigate the matter thoroughly.

   In the end, the case became a muddled case, because there was no solid evidence, Emperor Hongzhi only disqualified Xu Jing as a tribute student, and he was not allowed to continue to participate in the imperial examination, and he was released from prison.

  So...Fang Jifan naturally agreed, and when Xu Jing comes out in the future, who knows if Fang Jifan has any credit for his rescue? Anyway, this kind of mediation and rescue has been kept secret. Only God knows whether he has secretly rescued or not.

   One day, Xu Jing was released from prison with several broken ribs. In Tang Yin\'s heart, this was naturally the result of his teacher\'s efforts to rescue him.

  It seems a bit unkind to be so greedy. However, in order to establish the image of being omnipotent as a teacher, it seems that this is the only way to do it.

  Fang Jifan patted his chest and said: "Xiao Tang, don\'t worry, this matter is left to the teacher."

  Tang Yin\'s eyes filled with tears in an instant. He suddenly felt that he must have had many misunderstandings about his mentor before. The mentor is such a bold person. Those rumors in the market are really unbelievable.

  So he wept gratefully and bowed again: "Teacher, student... students are very grateful."

  Ouyang Zhi and the three of them were all sullen, and they still looked dumb. They thought in their hearts that their mentor was a little reckless. How to rescue such a big matter?

   It\'s just that no matter how unreliable things their mentors do, they have long been accustomed to it, and they don\'t find it strange.

  At this time, only Fang Jifan said: "Deng Jian...Deng Jian..."

  Deng Jian rushed in and said, "The villain is here."

"Go." Fang Jifan got up and said, "Go to the inn with Xiao Tang, bring him here together, and ask Steward Yang to tidy up a room. Also, Xiao Tang is a talented person, so prepare some pens, ink and paper for him. Yan."

  Guard Yang had been waiting outside the whole time, and he couldn\'t help but be speechless when he heard Tang Bohu shouting affectionately at each teacher. Afterwards, he heard that the young master was going to try to rescue Xu Jing, and he couldn\'t help but feel a little bit in his heart.

  At this time, Fang Jifan said: "It\'s getting late, I should go to Zhan Shifu to be on duty."

  Seeing the young master coming out of the hall, Steward Yang hastily followed suit.

  Fang Jifan looked back and said, "Guard Yang, what\'s the matter?"

"Yes." Steward Yang\'s face was solemn, and he lowered his voice as much as possible: "Young master, what Xu Jing committed is unusual, and in all dynasties, anyone involved in the imperial examination fraud case will undoubtedly die, and there is no room for negotiation. The young master must not be confused. How can the young master agree to rescue such a thing at will? Please think again, according to the students. Now that Xu Jing has confessed and Jin Yiwei has the ironclad evidence, this alone is enough to make Xu Jing Doomsday is over. Take 10,000 steps back, if there is really something wronged, but cheating in the imperial examination has always been better than killing by mistake, and never let it go..."

   "Oh..." Fang Jifan just nodded indifferently: "Got it."

   After finishing speaking, Fang Jifan hurried away.

   Steward Yang didn\'t have time to persuade him any more, so he could only watch the young master leave in despair.

  ...

  In the early morning, snow flakes were flying, and it seemed that the whole land had turned into a vast expanse of whiteness, and it was chilly everywhere.

  Kemao time has not yet arrived, the genius is bright, and the holy car of Emperor Hongzhi arrives at Zhan Shifu.

  Last night, he thought about the fraud case of the imperial examination for a whole night. Cheng Minzheng was considered a highly trusted minister, but he never expected that he would be involved in the fraud case of the imperial examination.

   Just half an hour ago, Mu Bin, the commander of Jinyiwei, had sent the statement, and there were many related evidences.

  Looking at these evidences, Emperor Hongzhi was furious, took a copy of the copy on the spot, and cursed out a word: "Shameless!"

This is solid evidence. Several people from the Cheng family have confessed that they did accept money. In addition, Xu Jing has visited Cheng Cheng\'s house seven times in just two or three months since he entered Beijing. Even Xu Jing has admitted that he has indeed been hinted by Cheng Minzheng.

  Cheng Minzheng was the son of Cheng Xin, Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing. At the age of ten, he was recommended to the imperial court as a "prodigy" and studied in the Imperial Academy. In the second year of Chenghua, he was the first and second Jinshi, and he was the youngest among the more than 350 people on the same list. The most important thing is that he entered the Hanlin right away, and then he spoke directly to the East Palace. His knowledge was profound and he was the crown of the moment. At that time, the prince of the East Palace was Emperor Hongzhi.

   That is to say, in terms of Emperor Hongzhi, Cheng Minzheng was considered half of Emperor Hongzhi\'s master.

  At the beginning, Cheng Minzheng assisted Wang Ao and read scriptures for Emperor Hongzhi, and he was always respected by Emperor Hongzhi.

When Emperor Hongzhi came to the throne, he appointed Cheng Minzheng as the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, but he never expected that a person who was so virtuous and respected in the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi, who was educated and instructed by him when he was only the prince, would commit a crime. Such an unbearable felony.

  Emperor Hongzhi was a very emotional person, and the matter that Master Cheng was involved in made him both melancholy and uneasy. So I stayed up all night, looking at the memorials piled up on the copybook, but found that I couldn\'t read a single word.

  So he simply issued an order to drive Zhan Shifu, perhaps, only in Zhan Shifu, seeing the prince, the only son, can make him feel relieved.

  It is said that... the prince has improved recently.

  There was no surprise attack this time, so Zhu Houzhao brought the staff of Zhan Shifu to greet him.

  At this time, it was still early in the morning. Yang Tinghe and the imperial officials from Zuochunfang hadn’t come on duty yet, and even Fang Jifan hadn’t arrived yet, so behind Zhu Houzhao, only a group of eunuchs followed.

but…

  Emperor Hongzhi looked Zhu Houzhao and a group of eunuchs up and down, but saw that Zhu Houzhao was dirty and smelled of dirt, and Liu Jin and others seemed to be rolling in the mud.

  Early in the morning, what kind of trick is this?

  Emperor Hongzhi frowned, but he held his breath and said with a smile, "Your son got up so early?"

   "Yes." Zhu Houzhao smiled apologetically and said, "My son...is...uh...planting."

Ever since he was cut off by his father last time, and then saw Fang Jifan and the palace make a lot of money with his own eyes, Zhu Houzhao is now full of desire to make a fortune. Fang Jifan said that planting melons can make a fortune, and opened up a test field in Zhan Shifu Zhu Houzhao suddenly regained his energy. A few days ago, Fang Jifan had cultivated melon seedlings, and the greenhouse had been set up. Dozens of melon seedlings were planted, and then he asked the people in Zhan Shifu to take good care of them.

Zhu Houzhao now wakes up early every morning to see the growth of the melon seedlings, wondering if there are worms, and why the leaves are withered and yellow. This morning, he couldn\'t avoid it. Knowing that his father was coming, he rushed over in such a hurry that he didn\'t have time to take a shower and change clothes.
