Chapter 109 Fang Jifan

  Beating into tricks...

  This... is a big joke in the world.

  Mu Bin, the commander of the capital, is already honest, and has never violated any rules, but even so, no matter how docile Jin Yiwei was in the Hongzhi Dynasty, he still couldn\'t get rid of his inertia.

At this time, I saw Li Dongyang said again: "As for the matter of asking for books with three hundred taels of silver, Your Majesty, this matter has actually become common practice since Emperor Wen. Collusion is too far-fetched. I have also checked Xu Jing\'s articles, and there are many omissions in his articles. However, he is also a talented person in the south of the Yangtze River with a profound background. The essays of the township examination and the college examination are definitely not as simple as being able to take the twenty-seventh place in the examination. Veteran ministers can guarantee that with Xu Jing\'s talent and learning, if he knows the examination questions in advance, he will definitely be ranked first."

  Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath, and said: "You mean, Huke made a false accusation against Shi Huachang, and Jin Yiwei was beaten into a trick, and Cheng Minzheng and Xu Jing\'s crime of cheating on the title was confirmed?"

  Li Dongyang, however, said: "The minister also found out...the Ministry of Household Affairs Minister Zhonghua Chang and the Ministry of Rites\' right servant Cheng Minzheng have long had a rift..."

  False accusation... unjust case!

  Emperor Hongzhi\'s expression changed suddenly.

This case has attracted the attention of the whole world. After all, it is a fraud in the examination. But in the end, it was an oolong.

  Emperor Hongzhi couldn\'t help pacing anxiously in the warm pavilion, his eyebrows looked extremely solemn, on the one hand, he was relieved, after all, knowing that Cheng Minzheng had no problem made him feel a little better.

   On the other hand, how should I explain it to the world? Could it be that the whole world is told that all this is due to the emperor\'s ignorance and lack of understanding of people, and the minions in the palace, Jin Yiwei, beat him into a trick?

  If this is the case, how will people in the world view the imperial court, and how will they view themselves?

After a long time, Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath, closed his eyes, showed a little pain on his face, and said in his mouth: "Decree, to Jinyiwei, order the prison to release him immediately, Cheng Minzheng, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, dismissed from office Family. Gongsheng Xu Jing, his official status was removed, and he was sent to serve as a small official in the county government, and he was not allowed to take the imperial examination for life."

  Li Dongyang\'s face was expressionless, and his eyes were still calm, as if His Majesty\'s will had been expected.

   Li Dongyang knew that if he admitted that it was an unjust case, then the prestige of the emperor and the court would be dealt a severe blow.

  If it was another emperor, nine out of ten, he would simply close his eyes, make the mistake, and execute Cheng Minzheng and Xu Jing directly in the name of fraud.

  However, Emperor Hongzhi, who has always been generous, obviously couldn\'t bear to do this.

  Since you can\'t admit your mistakes, you can\'t simply make mistakes.

  Hongzhi\'s compromise method is to neither admit his mistake, but at the same time, treat the two of them lightly.

   Naturally, this fraud case will never be overturned, but at the same time, it also showed the court\'s tolerance and spared their lives.

   This is the best result...

  Of course, Cheng Minzheng and Xu Jing, who are the parties involved, are not so wonderful. One is the right servant of the household department with a promising future, and the other is a scholar who has been in the middle of ten years and finally won the gold list. Now, their futures are ruined.

  Li Dongyang nodded and said: "This is indeed the best result." After finishing speaking, he sighed.

  Emperor Hongzhi could not bear it, but he still shook his head and said, "Go..."

  In his heart, it is inevitable that there will be some self-blame, but right now, it seems that this is the only way to go.

  …

  On this day, the Fang family ushered in an unusual guest.

  Menzi was startled when he saw the ragged man, and immediately went to report. Then, Tang Yin rushed out: "Brother Xu...Brother Xu..."

  Tang Yin grabbed the person by his arms, looked carefully, and saw that the person was unkempt and unrecognizable. Although he was wearing a fairly clean clothes, he could still see the skin exposed by the bruises.

  Xu Jing was released from prison. In this capital, he had no relatives. He could only come to Tang Yin. When he arrived at Tang Yin\'s inn, he found out that Tang Yin had moved to Nanhebo Mansion.

He came here with a limp, and met Tang Yin\'s eyes. Tang Yin\'s eyes were full of tears. The once handsome Jiangnan talent who spent a lot of money had disappeared, and the person who replaced him was like a beggar. They all stink of rotting flesh.

   "Brother Xu... sit inside."

  Xu Jing\'s eyes were blank, he just choked and shook his head: "No, I can\'t, I\'m here, I just want to borrow some money to go back to Tianfu."

   Tang Yin frowned, and then said: "How did you come out? Yes, I understand, I understand, it\'s your mentor, it must be your mentor who rescued you."

  Yes, such a major fraud case was involved, and now the court has not rehabilitated him, how could he release him so easily?

  Tang Yin said pleasantly: "That\'s right, it really is a mentor, a mentor..." As he spoke, his clothes were wet with tears.

This kind of excitement is conceivable, although the mentor personally agreed to rescue Xu Jing, but he has always subconsciously felt that the mentor is a hard-hearted person, but how could he have thought that the mentor really went to rescue Xu Jing, and it took a lot of effort And risk, I am afraid there are many.

Tang Yin excitedly told Xu Jing the whole story, Xu Jing burst into tears after hearing this: "If it wasn\'t for Mr. Fang\'s family, the student would definitely die. No wonder, that\'s why Jin Yiwei suddenly released him. Where is the teacher? I Let’s go and thank you, this is a life-saving grace, and it’s hard to repay it just in case.”

  …

  The \'Champion Marquis\' in Zhan Shi\'s Mansion are growing well, which makes Fang Jifan feel cheerful. Speaking of which, he is really afraid that Zhu Houzhao won\'t let it go, this guy is just a stubborn person.

After being on duty, Fang Jifan finally drove back to the mansion in a good mood. At this time, the sky was very dark, and Deng Jian was holding a lantern in front of him to illuminate the road. When he reached the gate of the mansion, two figures suddenly rushed Fang Jifan was so scared that he almost fell off his horse.

  What\'s the situation, we dare to fight against Fang Jifan\'s robbery? After eating the bear\'s heart and leopard\'s guts, my young master roared, and hundreds of strong men came out.

   "Grandfather..." Someone uttered a mournful cry, which seemed extraordinarily pervasive in this night.

   "Men, Xu Jing is out of prison, and I\'m here to thank my teacher." Hearing Xiao Tang\'s voice at this time, Fang Jifan was relieved. Your uncle, I scared the young master to death.

  Fang Jifan got off his horse, while Deng Jian moved the lantern to look forward, and saw Xu Jing who was still completely unrecognizable even though he had washed up a lot.

  Xu Jing knelt directly at Fang Jifan\'s feet, choked with sobs and said: "The kindness of a drop of water can still be repaid by the spring, but today, the kindness of saving my son\'s life, even if the student dies, it is difficult to repay it in case." When he talked about the hardship, he burst into tears.

Originally in Fang Jifan\'s plan, maybe others didn\'t know the inside story, but he knew that Xu Jing would definitely be released. The reason why he fooled Tang Yin and said that he would rescue him was just to take this opportunity to make Xiao Tang die Draw a good picture for yourself, but who would have thought that not only did Tang Yin believe it, even when Xu Jing was released without knowing it, he thought it was Fang Jifan\'s secret operation that saved his life.

  This...is a bit embarrassing.

  Although in the eyes of others, I am a brain-dead, vicious villain, and I am simply the object of verbal criticism by the decent people.

But…

   Seeing Xu Jing thanking him again and again in tears, Fang Jifan\'s face turned red.

  It\'s really... a little embarrassing, but I didn\'t do anything.

   "That\'s enough, thank you for nothing, let\'s go, go back to your Yingtian Mansion, and never come to the capital again."

Xu Jing thought of losing his reputation and being an official all his life, and his thoughts were all torn up. He cried and said: "Student... I will go now, I will go to Yingtian Mansion, and I will never be able to set foot in the capital. I am afraid that I will never have the chance to meet my benefactor again." See, benefactor, in the next life, students will be oxen and horses, so let’s repay your kindness.”

   As he spoke, he solemnly kowtowed three times to Fang Jifan, and started to leave.

  The ancients... really valued friendship.

  Fang Jifan sighed in his heart, or in other words, although some of these nerds are arrogant and some are proud of their talents, they still know how to repay their kindness.

   But in fact, Fang Jifan did not play any role in this matter.

  At this time, Xu Jing stood up, bowed to Fang Jifan, and then bowed to Tang Yin with tears in his eyes: "Bohu, there will be a meeting later."

Thinking of Xu Jing\'s departure, Tang Yin couldn\'t help but feel sad immediately. Passionate talents like them are always sad and parting. In this era, once parting, with the current traffic conditions, it is possible that this parting will last forever. There are thousands of mountains and rivers apart, and it is extremely difficult to meet again. I am afraid that in this life, we can only meet in dreams.

  Tang Yin also bowed back to Xu Jing, looking at each other speechlessly, couldn\'t help the tears, and cried bitterly again.

  Fang Jifan is the most unaccustomed to such touching scenes.

  Your uncle...

  Fang Jifan felt that the wind seemed to blow into his eyes, and rubbed it. The desertification in ancient Beijing was very serious, and there was sand in the wind.

   "Later... there will be a period later... Brother Xu, goodbye."

  Xu Jing nodded, turned around resolutely, and wanted to leave.

  Suddenly, Fang Jifan sternly said: "Xu Jing!"

  Xu Jing was stunned, and looked back at Fang Jifan.

   At this moment, Fang Jifan kicked his PIGU viciously with a flying kick.

  Things happened too suddenly, although Fang Jifan had little strength, Xu Jing also staggered, almost fell and gnawed on the mud.

  Fang Jifan said sharply: "Your uncle, let me ask you, have you cheated?"

  The export is dirty. In the past, Xu Jing would have cut off his robes long ago, but facing Fang Jifan, ignoring his rudeness, Xu Jing hurriedly said: "No, the student is innocent, how dare he act so boldly."

  Fang Jifan said conveniently: "Since you have not cheated, it is very unreasonable for the imperial court to revoke your student status. It is even more absurd to let you go to Yingtian Mansion as an official. I am a relatively straightforward person, and the emperor..."

  When he heard that the young master was about to start talking nonsense again, Deng Jian was so frightened that he immediately slammed the lantern to the ground, then rushed forward and covered Fang Jifan\'s mouth: "Young master, young master, be careful, be careful."

After finally breaking Deng Jian away, Fang Jifan said: "Be careful what you say, what I said is that the emperor must have been deceived by others, and our Fang Jifan has received the grace of the country, so we must speak out righteously, my lord, tonight, Xu Jing then stayed in the mansion, tomorrow I will go to face the saint!"

  Tang Yin\'s face turned pale with fright.

  Xu Jing also had a look of astonishment, Xu Jing hurriedly said: "No, absolutely not, the student is already satisfied with the life that can be lucky enough to survive, this case involves a lot, benefactor must not be involved in danger... absolutely not."

  Fang Jifan folded his hands behind his back and raised his head. At this moment, he found himself sublimated again.

   Already out of the bad taste?

   Well, give it a try, anyway, give it a try.
