(Third update today! Please subscribe!)

Although Ouyang Xiu understood this, he would not refute Su Jin face to face with his experience and maturity, and his attention was suddenly attracted by Su Jin's words; The words are unusual.update the fastest

"Special Envoy Su, I understand your feelings very well and express my deep sympathy; but the special envoy does not need to be so excited, the clear will be clear and the turbid will be turbid. The best way to respond to false accusations is to clarify the facts To bring the rumor-mongers and slanders to justice is the only way to deal with it positively, instead of giving up on yourself and playing childish temper; judging from the things that Master Specialist has done, Master Specialist must not be such a stingy person; How can the winner and loser break into the bandit's lair alone and capture all the gangsters in Bagong Mountain?"

Ouyang Xiu took Su Jin up the steps unhurriedly, and put on his top hat by the way: "The deeds of Mr. Special Envoy are now well-known in the capital. When you return to Beijing for business next time, you can go to the tea house and song shop to listen to it." Listen, the special envoy to exterminate bandits has become a joke in the mouth of the talkers, and a libretto in the mouth of the singers. This kind of glory, even Northwest Fan Gong and Han Xianggong have not enjoyed it; but if you really Go to inquire, I advise you to disguise yourself, you need to know the rumors in the capital that Mr. Envoy is not only courageous, but also looks like Pan An. , if you don't put on a disguise, the streets and alleys in the east and west sides will be crowded."

Su Jin couldn't help laughing, this old man Ouyang really can speak vernacular, and he actually spoke so exaggeratedly, it's only been a few days since the news spread?How can there be such a situation?

However, Su Jin also understood that this was Ouyang Xiu's words of affection. When he lost his temper, the imperial envoy not only did not lose his temper, but also gave him a high hat. After he knew the purpose of Ouyang Xiu's visit, he gave Ouyang Xiu an attitude, that is, I, Su Jin, are not easy to mess with, don't think that I am a soft persimmon, just squeeze it casually, and be more polite to me, otherwise I will give up the pick.

It would be fine if the emperor's oral decree was completely unfair to him, but the false imperial decree is true, and since someone has played it, it means that there must be something in their hands, so Su Jin didn't dare to make a fuss Yingtian, after all, he has a tail, and this person may catch a bigger tail in the future, so he just accepts this high hat with a smile.

"My lord Ouyang's praise, how could it be so exaggerated, this... This official's words are inappropriate, please forgive me for offending; the official just couldn't hold back his disgust, so he uttered nonsense."

Song Xiang blinked as he watched, this kid was like a chameleon, stretching and contracting hesitating, just now his veins were bulging, he yelled excitedly, and immediately admitted his mistake in a low voice, he felt more and more elusive, his face was worthless, In the future, we must cherish life and stay away from this person.

Song Xiang is a fool. The face in the officialdom is not what he wants, it is given by others. The bridal sedan chair is used to carry people. Su Jin's move is just seeing through these tricks. Ouyang Xiu understands, Su Jin understands, and even most of them are officials. Everyone understands it, but Song Xiang doesn't; that's why other people's officials become bigger and bigger, while his officials become smaller and smaller. If it's not good, he will be demoted to a small county to be the county magistrate.

"It's easy to say... Hahaha." Ouyang Xiu is very satisfied with Su Jin's performance. He is so young, why is he like an old fritter in the officialdom, but he quickly figured out this point. It seems that the third division is not missing Given the opportunity face to face, under the advice of the old fox, Mr. Sansi, it is strange that this person is not a little fox.

Seated in the hall of three, Song Xiang ordered tea to be served, and food and drink to be prepared. After a commotion for a while, he sat down. Ouyang Xiu drank a few sips of tea, then took out Yan Shu's letter from his sleeve and handed it to Su Jin, asking at the same time : "Su Special Envoy Shicai said that officials in Yangzhou were dug out for corruption. What's going on?"

Su Jin secretly raised his thumb. Ouyang Xiu's self-cultivation and sense of smell are not covered up. He deliberately leaked out the matter, just waiting for Ouyang Xiu to ask questions. Just now, Ouyang Xiu didn't ask, which made Su Jin a little disappointed. At this time Ouyang Xiu was asking, the choice of timing was naturally excellent; the attitudes of the two sides gradually calmed down, from being full of gunpowder to treating each other with courtesy. At this time, he handed Yan Shu's letter to himself, and then asked seemingly casually. And this matter, of course I have to answer.

Su Jin then told Ouyang Xiu the truth about Feng Huhu's case. Ouyang Xiu's face fluctuated from anger to joy, and his eyes kept looking at Song Xiang, as if he was wondering why Song Xiang had been in office for nearly three years after such a big incident happened. I don't know anything, let this cancer grow bigger and bigger.

At the same time, Ouyang Xiu also looked at Su Jin differently from a little contempt. This kind of thing seems to be a coincidence, it seems that Su Jin accidentally set off this big case, but why no one can notice why the Beijing officials traveling to and from Yangzhou are so busy. this matter?What's even more ridiculous is that the annual audits of the Ministry of Officials are actually excellent, and the chaos in Yangzhou City has reached the point where the people are in dire straits, but they didn't notice it?

If it is said that these people are all mediocre people, it is naturally wrong. The real reason is that these people hide deeply and do things very secretly, but Su Jin can detect the problem in just a few days. In addition to being lucky, this sense of smell is also extraordinary; this person has great potential to become an official at Yushitai, Ouyang Xiu suddenly found himself feeling a little sympathetic towards Su Jin, in terms of keen sense of smell, Su Jin is quite different from himself very similar.

It's a pity that the good material and beautiful jade were woven into the door first by the old fox Yan Shu, and he admired her as someone else's wife again. Two lines of poems suddenly appeared in Ouyang Xiu's heart, "I wish I could meet again when I was unmarried, and I will return to you with tears. "

"Lord Ouyang, Lord Ouyang?" Seeing that Ouyang Xiu was distracted, Su Jin called twice softly.

"Well... Listen, Special Envoy Su, you have done a great job this time. If you can dig out these cancerous tumors in one fell swoop, Yangzhou Mansion will be safe in the future. The emperor has often mentioned the matter of government officials to me recently. The emperor Huijue Mingcha has said long ago: Although peace in the world is good, it also whitewashes many disadvantages. I am afraid that there may be undercurrents hidden under this calmness. It has proved the wiseness of the Holy One, and it is not unreasonable to worry."

Su Jin smiled and said: "I didn't think about it. I have read Song Zijing's theory of 'Three Redundancies and Three Expenses' a long time ago. In addition, my family is also a businessman, and I know some activities between officials and businessmen. But to be honest, If it wasn't for Feng Laohu who obstructed my food affairs, the subordinate officials would not touch his tiger's ass; although so many moths were dug out this time, the price was not small. The criminal's minions were stubbornly resisting, and I had no choice but to kill, but I was a little panicked."

Ouyang Xiu said: "That's nothing to be alarmed about. The purge of officials is comparable to fighting on the battlefield. If you want to be safe and sound, you can purge them. That's a dream. It's just that you said that the food has not been found yet, which is worrying."

Su Jin said: "There are clues, but I just can't spare the energy to investigate. Now that your lord has come, I can also hand over the case to your lord for trial. I will complete the grain business wholeheartedly, and I will recover the grain soon."

Ouyang Xiu laughed loudly, and thought: This kid has too many tricks, you don't know your purpose when you are an official?Don't you just want to put this big case on me so that I won't have time to investigate your affairs?However, although I understand your intentions, I am willing to accept it. This case is much bigger than yours. I will follow the vines and blow the wind of purges throughout the Song Dynasty. Maybe the opportunity brought by this matter will be in seconds It's unspeakable.

Seeing that Ouyang Xiu agreed to accept, Su Jin put down a big stone in his heart. Since the court review is unavoidable, it is better to let Ouyang Xiu try the case in Yangzhou, so that he can have more room for maneuver. The main reason is that these officials will definitely tell the matter about the general rations. It is obvious that the latter is easier to control the situation; now the Yangzhou government basically has the final say, and when the two sides confront each other, and then find some people to give false testimony to prevaricate, maybe It can be fooled.

Thinking that this matter would inevitably be exposed, the big rock in Su Jin's heart suddenly rose again; Zensheng figured out Ouyang Xiu's trump card, knew what kind of person he was, and it would be best if he could also design a trap to invite you into the urn and get him With the handle, things will be easy to handle.

Everyone was chatting and laughing happily, Ouyang Xiu never dreamed that Su Jin, opposite him, had his own dirty ideas in his heart.
