Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 43: Fish that slipped through the net

“Wang Sinong, congratulations, congratulations, congratulations to Wang Sinong for finally letting out such a bad breath!”

Doctor Guan Ji bowed his hands repeatedly to Wang Wenshan.

Wang Wenshan just smiled and didn’t make a sound.

Guan Ji was surprised and said: “What? This anger has not been straightened out yet?”

Wang Wenshan said: “It’s not that the old man has a small belly. If Fan Gong and Ouyang Xianggong teach me a few words, not to mention keeping them in my heart, but I will listen to them with respect. Why? They are elders, and they are highly respected. I am a junior, so I am proud to give respect. In the same way, Zhang San is arrogant, does not pay attention to the old man at all, and even speaks rudely to the old man, how can this little lesson vent my hatred.”

“That’s true.” Guan Ji nodded and said, “That kid really doesn’t know the heights of heaven and earth, and how Wang Sinong plans to teach him next step?”

Wang Wenshan said: “I didn’t think about it, but the old man must let him kowtow to the old man to admit his mistake, otherwise, this matter will not go through.”

Today, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang, two introvert experts, were released only half an hour later than the others. They really have no intention of working!

“After this incident, I’m afraid that the old man will never be ashamed again!”

Sima Guang looked up to the sky and sighed.

He doesn’t have much opinion on restraining the dispute, but he has always hoped to reverse the case of A Yun in court, so that A Yun can get the punishment he deserves.

But if he did this, he felt that he could no longer compete with Zhang Fei in an upright manner.

Wang Anshi said with a chuckle: “It can be regarded as an excuse for you.”

Sima Guang glared at him, “I have nothing to say, I have nothing to say. You can laugh if you like.”

“Actually, I don’t have the right to laugh at you, I feel ashamed too!”

Wang Anshi sighed heavily, “It’s really a great anecdote of my dynasty that the civil and military forces of the Manchu dynasty united to deal with a man of Erbi, and it will be ridiculed by future generations!”

Sima Guang glanced at him suddenly and said: “Jiefu, even though it is so, it may not be a bad thing for you.”

Wang Anshi looked at his old friend and said, “What are you going to say?”

Sima Guang said: “Don’t be too quick to get angry. I have the same opinion as you on this matter. It’s really disgraceful and embarrassing for us. But why don’t you think about it, for a person like Erbi, If they are all like this, if you are not careful in the future, how will they treat you?”

Wang Anshi didn’t know what he meant, and immediately retorted: “During the Qingli period, Fan Gong and the others also thought like you and acted cautiously in everything, but the result was nothing. Now the problem is still the same, even worse than that. How can we repeat the same mistakes. If you don’t make progress, you have to make concessions. It is better not to make concessions. In my opinion, there is no room for maneuver in this matter. If I were Zhang San, I would never Let it go, we must fight them to the end.”

The Qingli New Deal was very short-lived, and the reason was that there was no one who dared to take responsibility. Song Renzong was forced to reform, and Fan Zhongyan and others did not make up their minds. Ended up without illness.

At that time, Wang Anshi was watching how the new law was going to perish. He could not have made the same mistake.

Sima Guang is also one of the witnesses. Of course he knows that what Wang Anshi said is correct, but he thinks it is not feasible to do the opposite, so he has to choose another path. Fan Zhongyan, Fu Bi, Ouyang Xiu and others , Which one is not an outstanding politician, and which one is worse than him, Wang Jiefu, they dare not do this, so it is reasonable, he glanced at Wang Anshi, and pointed out: “Zhang San is not as stupid as you, You must know the difficulties and retreat.”

Wang Anshi said: “That’s not necessarily the case. If he knew how to retreat in spite of difficulties, then why did he come to Bianjing again?”

This is not talking about Zhang San, it is talking about himself!

Sima Guang snorted, “Then let’s wait and see.”

Wang Anshi glanced at Sima Guang, and suddenly said: “I really like your Fang Yan.”

Sima Guang was stunned, pointed at Wang Anshi and said, “It turns out that you have been thinking about my Fang Yan for a long time. Letters, have been occupied by you.”

Wang Anshi snorted and said, “How many times have I said this, and it was written on the title that it was me, Wang Jiefu, so of course it belongs to me.”

“That’s just because my name is longer, but my name is more than yours in the letter, why should it belong to you.”

“Stop talking nonsense and make a deal.”

“I’m afraid you won’t succeed.”

At the same time, on the east wall, stood a young man and an old man.

It is Song Shenzong and Xu Zun.

“I called you here today to ask for something.” Song Shenzong suddenly turned around and said to Xu Zunyan who was behind him.

Xu Zun hurriedly said: “Your Majesty, please order.”

Song Shenzong said bluntly: “I appreciate Zhang San’s talent very much. Now he is afraid that he will not be able to do it. Therefore, I hope that you can recommend him to be an official in the court. Then I will make up for you again.” A shadow of grace.”

Of course he knew in his heart what was going on, but he didn’t care, anyway, he didn’t want Zhang Fei to be a stickler all the time.

You must know that the status of the Erbi people is actually very humble, and they belong to the same rank as the Ya people.

Xu Zun pondered and did not answer.

Song Shenzong said again: “I know that Qing never likes to recommend, but this time I owe you.”

Xu Zun hurriedly said: “Your Majesty misunderstood, this is not what I meant.”

Song Shenzong asked: “I don’t know why you hesitate?”

Xu Zun replied: “To tell the truth, Your Majesty, I also admire Zhang San very much and hope that he can serve the country in the future, but I don’t want to see him enter the court at this time.”

“Why?”

“Now when he encounters difficulties, His Majesty will help him. This will make him get used to hiding under His Majesty’s wings. But when he becomes an official in the court, he will definitely encounter more and more difficult problems. He may choose to avoid it instead of facing it, which is not conducive to his growth.”

“Yeah.”

Song Shenzong nodded slightly, and said again: “But how can he, a citizen of Erbi, face these problems?”

Xu Zundao: “I have talked with him, he is very confident, so His Majesty should give him a chance, if not, make another plan.”

Song Shenzong thought for a moment, nodded and said: “Okay! Just follow Qing’s words, let’s wait and see.”

As the saying goes, if a tree is more beautiful than a forest, the wind will destroy it.

But in reality, this kind of situation generally rarely occurs, and often the crisis is directly killed in the cradle, and it will not wait until the wood is beautiful.

Especially when it comes to power.

Any power struggle is a zero-sum game. If you gain more points, I will definitely lose one point.

Therefore, when Wang Wenshan and others lit a fire, the rest of them rushed forward.

As if Mount Tai was pressing on an egg, he directly strangled Zhang Fei.

This was not organized in advance, and Wang Wenshan did not have that much energy.

This is a kind of political tacit understanding.

Of course, they also made some embellishments and did not include Zhang Fei’s name in the decree.

The policy given by the imperial court is aimed at litigation, not at a certain person who is in charge of writing.

So logically speaking, for the relevant people, such as the tea eaters and Erbi people, it can be said that the city gate caught fire, which brought disaster to the fish in the pond.

But this is not the case.

That night, the eight major tea eaters in Bianjing gathered in Jufenglou.

“Thank you for your support this time, and I would like to offer you a toast.”

Chen Yu raised his glass and said.

“How dare! How dare!”

The eight major tea eaters stood up one after another and raised their glasses in return.

After drinking a cup, Li Zhongguo, the head of the party, said: “To tell you the truth, Yuanwailang, we have long been unhappy with that kid, but it’s just because of Xu Shisi, so we have been tolerant of him.”

“What Li Xingshou said was that that kid didn’t know the heights of the sky and the earth, and broke the rules of our industry, so that in recent days, many officials are dissatisfied with us, and we are also wronged!”

The vast majority of these tea eaters are from the government. They are one with the government. For them, it was simply a disaster.

However, Zhang Fei’s recent complaints really made them very worried. Firstly, this may interrupt their monopoly position. Secondly, they also realized that the officials were wary of them. Heart.

This is bad.

This time, they were very willing to help Chen Yu and deal with Zhang Fei. Those pleadings were secretly arranged by their Erbi people to hand them over.

Without their support, this matter would not have fermented so quickly.

Chen Yu said with a smile: “Everyone, please rest assured that this order from the court will not affect your livelihood, and everyone will continue to do so in the future.”

“Thank you, Yuanwailang, for taking care of me. I’ll treat you to Yuanwailang.”

“Where! Where!”

Original to win Li Si’s lawsuit, Zhang Fei was very energetic and ready to show his strength, but he never thought that the cold water would be poured directly from his head to the soles of his feet.

It’s cool!

The point is that he was really unprepared for this. He never thought that the other party would do this, which really gave him a great sense of oppression. He just felt that he couldn’t move. Like a person on the verge of execution, waiting to be punished.

Now the knife is down.

Although the lips and tongue are still there, the Xu family seems to be shrouded in haze.

Zhang Fei was half lying on the low railing of the corridor, suddenly glanced at Xu Zhiqian who was leaning on the beam, and couldn’t help but sigh with emotion: “Well, maybe this is a blessing in disguise, but I don’t know if it’s a blessing!”

Xu Zhiqian glanced at him lightly, “Where is the blessing?”

From her point of view, this is simply too bad.

Zhang Fei glanced at her and said with a smile: “Now I can’t do anything, then we won’t have any disputes about this, and finally we can talk calmly, isn’t it a good thing.”

Xu Zhiqian immediately said: “You don’t make insinuations here, I don’t gloat, I just don’t want you to collude with those rich and unkind rich gentry. It is not my wish that you suffer this disaster.”

“Look, you misunderstood me again.”

Zhang Fei said with a smile: “I think this matter has united us who were originally divided. This is definitely a good thing.”

Xu Zhiqian asked: “Then have you thought of a way?”

“Not yet, but this is the basis of our cooperation.” After speaking, Zhang Fei asked Xu Zhiqian, “Do you have a solution?”

Now that the result has come out, we have to find a way to deal with it.

Xu Zhiqian pondered for a while, and said: “From this point of view, they are determined not to tolerate you, and you, a man of Erbi, can’t beat them. The only way is to find a way to become an official in the court. In this way , you will be able to have the strength to compete with them.”

After all, she comes from a family of eunuchs, so she sees it more thoroughly than Zhang Fei. She also knows that this is because Zhang Fei is not an official, but an outsider. Same.

“Join if you can’t beat it. Being a law-abiding Durant, well, it’s a good idea.”

Zhang Fei nodded, suddenly raised his head to look at Xu Zhiqian, and asked curiously: “But why is it so easy for you to be an official?”

Xu Zhiqian said: “It may be difficult for others, but for you.”

“What am I?” Zhang Fei asked anxiously.

Xu Zhiqian rolled her eyes and said, “But you have to work hard, and you have to accumulate reputation and do more righteous things, so that you may become an official in the court.”

“It’s true, I don’t really believe it.” Zhang Fei expressed doubts.

Xu Zhiqian nodded and said, “Really! Why did I lie to you?”

This woman is drugging me again, I believe you a ghost. Zhang Fei frowned and said: “Not to mention that this is not easy to do, besides, I still can’t swallow this breath, I must find a way to get this thing back, otherwise, even if I really become an official, I will only can still be bullied by them.”

He is right, finding another way is not a kind of submission. Xu Zhiqian frowned slightly, and after serious thinking, she suddenly said, “Do you know Li Guozhong?”

Zhang Fei said: “It sounds familiar.”

Xu Zhiqian said: “This person is the leader of your line.”

Zhang Fei sighed: “I remembered, the first of the eight tea eaters.”

Xu Zhiqian nodded.

Zhang Fei asked: “Why did you suddenly mention him?”

Xu Zhiqian said: “He used to be a man of Erbi. His original name was Xu Guozhong. After he entered the Li family, he changed his name to Li Guozhong. With the death of his father-in-law, he inherited the bookstore. After some hard work, he became the Beginning of the line.”

Zhang Fei said: “What does this have to do with me?”

Xu Zhiqian said: “Do you still remember that I once told you that the official documents of the bookstore are different from those of Er Bi? The official documents in your hand are for you personally, but the official documents of the bookstore are for the bookstore. The current situation is that the right of litigation is given to bookstores, so if you can get one of the bookstores, you can regain the right of litigation.”

Zhang Fei suddenly sat up, and hurriedly asked: “I don’t know if there is any girl among the eight tea eaters who is not married, is she beautiful? I can do it.”

Xu Zhiqian glared: “You are really hopeless.”

Zhang Fei said depressedly: “Isn’t this your idea?”

Xu Zhiqian said: “Who told you to marry me? I’ll let you find a way to buy a bookstore.”

Zhang Fei asked in surprise, “Can I buy it too?”

“I really don’t know if you’re smart, it’s better to be confused!” Xu Zhiqian said angrily, “The imperial court has not given clear regulations on the official documents of this bookstore. He inherited the official document.”

“That’s right!” Zhang Fei said thoughtfully, “They’re pulling out the bottom line, so let’s go back and rebirth.”

Speaking of this, he paused for a while and asked, “But is this book shop easy to buy? You know how much money I have.”

Xu Zhiqian shook her head lightly and said: “That’s definitely not enough, and the money is only second. The key is whether they are willing to sell it to you. If you can persuade one of the bookstores, then my father and I can lend some money to you.” You.”

Zhang Fei sighed and said, “If you!”

Xu Zhiqian asked, “What am I?”

Zhang Fei shook his head and said, “It’s nothing.”

He originally wanted to say, if you don’t sabotage, then maybe I won’t be short of money, but in fact, if Xu Zhiqian doesn’t sabotage, those wealthy gentry can’t cooperate with her now.

This is really a waste of arguing and a waste of expression.

Suddenly someone shouted from behind: “Third Brother!”

Zhang Fei looked back and saw Li Si standing on the stone path behind the potted plants.

Zhang Fei stood up and said to Xu Zhiqian: “Let’s discuss this matter later, I have something to do, excuse me first!”

Speaking, he went out of the corridor, came to Li Si, and said, “What’s the matter?”

Li Sidao: “It’s about the Ma family.”

“The Ma family? Which Ma family?” Zhang Fei asked in astonishment.

Li Si was also stunned, and suddenly slapped his head: “Oh! I forgot to tell you about this, third brother. Last time, didn’t you let me stand at the street corner to receive those rich gentry?”

Zhang Fei suddenly glanced at Xu Zhiqian in the corridor, and coughed: “Go to the room and talk.”

Back in the house, Li Si said: “Two days ago when I went to buy pens and ink for Qingmei, I met that brother Ma, he said that his father wanted to see you, I remembered to tell you about it, but that day When I came back, third brother, you went to find Mrs. Xu without saying a few words, and I forgot about it.”

Zhang Fei’s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, “There is another fish that slipped through the net!”

“What slipped through the net?” Li Si asked.

Zhang Fei didn’t seem to hear, suddenly frowned, and said to himself: “But in the current situation, it is estimated that the Ma family will not come to me.”

Li Si hurriedly said: “No, Brother Ma just came again.”

Zhang Fei sighed: “Does it mean that his father will not come?”

Li Si shook his head and said: “That’s not true, it’s just that his father wants to meet you in another place.”

Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment and asked, “Where should I change it?”

“The night after tomorrow, Ma’s Tavern next to Caiqiao.”
