Elegy of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 186 Who Says You Can't Stab Someone Without a Gun
Near the gate on the west side of Yongle Square, Fang Chongyong was wearing a "gentry uniform" and walking in and out of the square. He had been staying in a hotel for the past few days, while inquiring about information and "using himself as bait", hoping that he would be caught by those gangsters. Keep an eye on.

The so-called "gentlemen's clothing" refers to the futou robe and shirt. In addition, a "scarf" is added to the futou as a symbolic decoration.

However, in order to imply his poor status, he wore a robe made of linen, with patches on inconspicuous areas.It’s not a loud statement, but you can let others see it by raising your hands and feet.

In order to look more like him, Fang Chongyong also specially smeared oil on his robe.He could swear, but just looking at his clothes, he is definitely a standard "literati of the Tang Dynasty".

However, for several days in a row, Fang Chongyong saw with his own eyes a science examination candidate being beaten up, but no one came to deliberately make trouble for him.Once, those local gangsters all passed by Fang Chongyong in order to chase a down-and-out candidate, but they still looked down upon his "gentlemen's attire"!
"Could it be because I'm too strong?"

At this moment, Fang Zhongyong was leaning against the courtyard wall of a house in Yongle Square, looking thoughtfully at the various people coming in and out of the square gate.

Even if he is a candidate (and indeed he is), he is still a tall and tall candidate.

During sex, he can lift Wang Yunxiu up with both hands and spin around at will to use it as a weapon.

In fact, these gangsters are just doing errands and beating people with the dog's money.Of course they choose those candidates who look thin, poorly dressed, and are alone, even though this choice is likely to be wrong.

Or in other words, Fang Chongyong was wearing carefully prepared "gentry clothes", and even Yuan Jie and Du Fu could identify Fang Chongyong as "the same kind" through these clothes at a glance.

But in the eyes of these ruffians, Fang Chongyong is also a different kind, and there is no need to consider the target at all.

With the knowledge of these gangsters, can they recognize what authentic "candidate clothing" is?

Maybe not?

Fang Chongyong suddenly realized that he seemed to have entered a misunderstanding, or that he had made things complicated.The reason why this matter is difficult to handle is not that it is too complicated, but that it is too simple. It is so simple that the mastermind behind the scenes does not need to do too much!

Tigers can easily defeat goats, but there may not be any good way to deal with flies and mosquitoes.

The current situation is a bit similar to someone who threw a few large crocodiles into the artificial lake in Fang Chongyong's previous residential area and then ran away.

As for how the crocodile caused trouble in the community and how it hurt people, they didn't care at all.

Without operation, there is no flaw, so the chance of exposure is greatly reduced.

At this moment, the group of hooligans who appeared every day came again and were chasing an imperial examination candidate.However, what was different from previous stories was that when this man ran to the entrance of the narrow alley, he actually took out a two-foot-long iron ruler from his sleeve!
This group of local gangsters were bullies and fearful of the strong. They were beaten by the man with an iron ruler, and they were unable to show their numerical superiority in a narrow area. In the end, they were beaten until they were so scared that they were chased out of the gate and ran north!

"These gangsters will also encounter tough problems."

Fang Chongyong watched the excitement from the sidelines and felt that the fighting power of this group of people was not very strong, just like the young people in the houses in the square.

After all the hooligans ran away, he walked up to the person who was attacked and asked, "Brother, you are also a candidate preparing for the scientific examination. These hooligans have been so annoying recently."

The man looked back at him, then shook his head and said, "This is just a dirty trick used by the right prime minister to take advantage of the opportunity to suppress foreign candidates. Those local ruffians are not just hitting people randomly."

Li Linfu did this?why?

Fang Chongyong was shocked. He never expected that this dirty water would be poured on Li Linfu's head!
Although Li Linfu, the right minister of the Tang Dynasty, is not a good person, you can doubt his character, but you can't doubt his IQ!Even if people oppose the imperial examination, they don't need to resort to such dirty tricks, right?

With Li Linfu's power, he could manipulate people in any way he wanted within the six departments.

"Brother, talking about important members of the imperial court is a grave sin!"

Fang Chongyong quickly pulled the man aside and spoke in a low voice, pretending to be anxious.

"Hey, it's not like a certain person said that. The candidates who are staying in Chang'an and preparing to take the imperial examination are all spreading the rumor. It is said that the right minister was extremely opposed to this imperial examination, but it was the left minister who strongly recommended it and promoted it.

The right prime minister is not behind this incident, so why is it? "

The man said plausibly.

At first glance, it seemed that this was really the case, but Fang Chongyong understood very well that Li Linfu had no control over the military department, let alone the change of defense of the Jinwu Guards.

Therefore, Zhang Shougui's biggest flaw in this incident was actually his strong intervention in Jinwu Guard's defense change, interrupting Fang Chongyong's careful deployment!
If the defense had not been changed, then with Fang Chongyong's previous deployment, these ruffians would have been arrested long ago!
He is planning to treat those gangsters like an army!

It was precisely because of this abnormal defense change that Fang Chongyong was certain that the military department controlled by Zhang Shougui must be behind it!

At this moment, a group of Jinwu Guards came belatedly after trotting all the way. Seeing Fang Chongyong talking with the "alternative" candidate who had defeated the gangster just now, they quickly stepped forward and asked: "Who were those gangsters just now?" Where did it go?"

"He's heading north. If I'm not mistaken, he should have rushed along the street into the North Inner Garden."

Fang Chongyong pointed to the north and said calmly.

Ok?
The leader, Jinwu Wei Sige, was slightly startled. He was not an ordinary person who could say such a thing.

"Have you entered the North Inner Garden? I don't want to talk nonsense."

The Right King Wu Wei Si Ge lowered his voice and warned.

"I have been staring at them for two or three days, can I still get it wrong? The reason why these gangsters cannot be caught is because the place where they hide every time is the Longwu Army station, Bei Neiyuan!"

Fang Zhongyong said categorically, looking around at the group of Youjinwu guardsmen, his aura was calm and intimidating!
Long Wujun!
Why did you say these three words on horseback?
Si Ge, the Youjinwu Weiwei in front of Fang Chongyong, smiled bitterly and said: "Oh, don't mention it. By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet..."

"Zhonglang General Fang Chongyong of Zuojinwu Guard."

Fang Zhongyong took out his waistband from his cuffs and waved it in front of everyone.

The group of people looked at each other in shock. They also did not expect that Zuo Jinwu, the lieutenant general, would not stay in the yamen of the imperial city and go to the inner square of the outer city to pretend to be an imperial examination candidate.

Is this a little too laid back?
"Meet General Fang!"

All the Jinwu guards bowed their hands in salute, looking frightened.I heard that the general of the Zuo Jinwu Guard was unconventional and often made shocking moves. As a subordinate of the same Jinwu Guard, don't let him get caught.

"Go and get busy. I have something to discuss with this brother."

Fang Zhongyong waved his hand, signaling the people on the right Jinwu Guard to get out.

In fact, he didn't need to say it. These soldiers of Youjinwu Guard had already wanted to run away.They greeted each other politely, and after bidding farewell to each other, they strode away from Yonglefang and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"How about we go sit over there?"

Fang Chongyong pointed to a small wine shop not far from here and said.

"General Fang, please, please come this way."

The "Iron Rule Candidate" said flattered.

……

"My name is Zhang She, a native of Hanzhou. He once served as a county captain in Luo County. He felt that his official career was hopeless, so he came to Chang'an to take part in the imperial examination. I didn't expect that this year's imperial examination would be so weird."

This candidate named Zhang She took the initiative to pour wine for Fang Chongyong. Only people like them who have served as minor local officials can deeply understand the dangers and snobbishness of officialdom.Regardless of whether you are a cat or a dog, as long as you are a senior official, you have the power to be superior to others.

Of course, it is one thing to have power. It is another thing to be able to "reasonably use" and convert these powers into one's own status.

Zhang She, like Fang Chongyong, both served as officials and then came back to take the imperial examination.

However, county captains from remote counties or impoverished counties with very few household registrations are often former scholars in the local state. They don't want to go through the trouble anymore and "apply" to the county government themselves.The threshold for this kind of official position is actually not high.

County lieutenant itself is the lowest limit for the imperial examination to confer official positions. Many times, Jinshi who are waiting for official selection would rather stay at home and wait for selection, or avoid the cheating county lieutenant position, hoping to get a job as a "college scholar" in the coming year.

It's enough to show how pitiful this official position is.

A simple summary is:
There are so many trivial matters in the officialdom, but so many troubles!
The less you gain, the more you get angry. If something goes wrong, you have to take the blame!

Especially when serving as the county captain of a lower county, there is no oil or water at all. If possible, he will be betrayed, and it will not be easy to achieve political achievements.

Luoxian County is not around Luoyang, let alone Qiluo City in Henan during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, but near Guanghan City, Sichuan Province where Fang Chongyong later lived.

Moreover, Luoxian County is still the administrative seat of Hanzhou, so of course it will not be a remote place.However, for a county captain who was recruited locally and had not passed the scientific examination, this official position was basically the pinnacle of his life.

There is no possibility of going any further, and it is even greater than the obstacles Niu Xianke faced when he was a small official.

Obviously, Zhang She left Luoxian County and came to Chang'an to participate in the imperial examination, which shows that he was not willing to live a mediocre life.

"Brother, everyone is now spreading rumors that the right prime minister suppresses candidates from other places. Is the imperial examination unfair?"

Fang Chongyong asked half-jokingly.

Zhang She thought for a while, looked around, and found that no one was paying attention here. Then he nodded slightly and said: "The candidates are all saying this by word of mouth, but I don't know what the actual situation is. A certain family's words cannot be counted."

People who have been officials naturally know the principle of "trouble comes from the mouth".

"The right minister asked someone to investigate this matter privately."

Fang Chongyong said calmly.

"Is there such a thing?"

Zhang She exclaimed in a low voice, his face turning pale with fright.Having been in the officialdom, he naturally knew that if what Fang Chongyong said was true, then the matter was so shady that he could no longer inquire about it.

"Just tell someone what you know. For the rest, there is no need to say more or make any guesses.

There is no harm in taking part in the imperial examination. "

Fang Chongyong said with a slight smile, throwing out a "bait".

Of course there is no harm, but are there any benefits?Zhang She can just guess this slowly. Fang Chongyong feels that he is an "honest person".

Zhang She swallowed, and finally nodded and said, "That's fine, then I won't hide it privately."

So the two of them chatted in this small restaurant. Most of the time, Zhang She was talking and Fang Chongyong was listening. Occasionally, he would ask a question or two, but they were all difficult to answer or things that Zhang She didn't pay much attention to on weekdays.

After chatting for almost two hours, Zhang She fell drunk in the wine shop.After Fang Chongyong settled the account, he almost didn't drink at all. He returned to the deposit room of Zuojinwuwei Yamen. He took a charcoal pen and marked a lot of things on the big map on the wall. He also wrote down a lot of Zhang Sheng in an account book. Something new mentioned.

After writing for a long time, he finally sorted out all the clues.

Fang Chongyong stood up and stretched out. In the past few days, Pei Min's Youjinwu Guards had made a lot of fools of themselves. The closest they came to success was just watching the thieves run into the Longwu Army Station in Bei Neiyuan. He was extremely frustrated.

Jinwuwei is the forbidden army of South Yamen, and Longwu Army is the forbidden army of North Yamen.

If the people of the Jinwu Guard searched the Beiya Forbidden Army garrison, which would be tantamount to conspiracy, they would be offending Brother Ji, and no one can bear this responsibility.

But are these hooligans pretending to be members of the Longwu Army, or do they... have any special relationship with the Longwu Army?Logically speaking, Zhang Shougui cannot command the men of Longwu Army!
This is where Fang Chongyong is unsure, but it doesn't matter. He has already thought of a way to handle this matter that absolutely no one can question or argue with.

After waiting for the next shift, Fang Chongyong pretended that he wanted to hang out with Hu Ji, and wandered around various brothels in Pingkangfang, and finally carefully entered through the back door of Li Linfu's house and sent a greeting card.

Sure enough, the concierge's servant went to report, and before half a stick of incense had been finished, Li Linfu personally welcomed Fang Zhongyong out of the courtyard and politely invited Fang Zhongyong into the study to discuss important matters!

He was still in the study room surrounded by screens, but this time Fang Chongyong didn't feel the "sense of being watched" like last time.

"A certain person came to pay a visit to the right minister, but in fact it was because of the recent beatings of imperial examination candidates."

Fang Chongyong crossed his hands and saluted Li Linfu and said.

"Oh, don't mention it."

Li Linfu waved his hand gently, smiled helplessly and said: "I have gone to Zhongnan Mountain in person to explain the matter to the saint. However, the saint did not comment on this and did not say how to deal with it."

Ok?
Fang Chongyong was stunned when he heard this, and then he figured out the key link.

In this case of the beating of the imperial examination candidates, it seems that Li Linfu did nothing and it was the left prime minister who was taking action.

He also bribed gangsters who had a close relationship with Long Wujun to work as black gloves, and sent people to spread rumors among the candidates' circles that Li Linfu interfered with the imperial examination and was jealous of talents.

In order to prevent Fang Chongyong's "off-field factors" from causing bad things, the Jinwu Guards were also deliberately switched to defense in advance, leaving Fang Yanei to just stare in the imperial city.

These plans cannot be said to be ingenious. It seems that the agency is too clever!

But how did Li Linfu cope?

He didn't respond, he just ran to Zhongnan Mountain to report to Brother Ji!

This move may seem weak, but it actually turns retreat into advance.Li Linfu knew very well where his power came from.Brother Ji was his god, Li Linfu didn't think about anything, he just wanted to hug Brother Ji's thigh tightly.

Whatever Brother Ji asked him to do, he would spare no effort to do it, even if those things were very unreasonable.

In the middle and late Kaiyuan period, Datang's finances needed to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.Among the three prime ministers, Pei Yaoqing was responsible for "increasing revenue" and Li Linfu was responsible for "reducing expenditure".

The government affairs he is responsible for are to continuously reduce administrative expenses, cut the government establishment, and reduce the number of sex workers. God knows how many people he has offended because of these!

If the election of the prime minister in the Tang Dynasty relied on the voting system, allowing all officials in the Tang Dynasty government to choose the prime minister with one vote, then there is absolutely no way Li Linfu would be able to become the prime minister!Even if the number of prime ministers is expanded ten times, it will be the same.

But now Li Linfu is still acting openly as prime minister, and his position is very stable.

This is the fundamental difference between Li Linfu and Zhang Shougui, Zhang Jiuling and others.

Zhang Shougui and others believed that they became prime minister because of "good work", but Li Linfu had a very deep understanding. He knew that everything he had was given by Brother Ji.

But what embarrassed Li Linfu this time was that Li Longji didn't express anything, which probably meant "got it".The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not seem to intend to interfere in the showdown and strife between the left and right ministers.

So on the one hand, this means that he will not intervene again to create bias. On the other hand, it also implies: Since the left prime minister can play tricks, then why can't you, Li Linfu, as the right prime minister with a slightly higher status, not play tricks?

It's a bit "happy to see what happens".

"Don't worry, right minister. I already have a way to deal with those people. I just need a little help from your right minister."

Fang Zhongyong saluted and said.

"Oh? What are you busy with?"

Li Linfu asked calmly.

Zhang Shougui hit his weak spot in this matter. He could not influence the Longwu Army, and the powerful six central departments were not used, or the cannon could not kill the mosquitoes.

"It's very simple, it's like this, and it's fine."

Fang Chongyong lowered his voice and made some gestures to Li Linfu, telling the whole story...half of his plan.

"Well, it seems interesting."

Li Linfu smiled and nodded in agreement.As for what he was thinking, Fang Chongyong couldn't tell, so it was probably okay.

"Then do as you say."

……

Li Linfu acted quickly. One day later, a decree from the Yizhengtang was sent to the Ministry of War. With the attitude of "if it is not implemented, there will be accountability", he asked the Ministry of War to handle it quickly.

This decree is very simple. In view of the fact that Chang'an City is becoming larger and larger, and merchants and pedestrians are coming and going more and more frequently, a series of facilities for pedestrians and merchants to rest and to facilitate their travels should be built on both sides of the Ba Bridge on the Ba River outside Chang'an City.

For example, the expansion of the existing ferry, the reinforcement of the Ba Bridge, the construction of pavilions and shops to rent to merchants to operate various shops, etc. are a series of comprehensive measures that benefit the country and the people and are also conducive to the government's rent collection.

Of course, these matters are the responsibility of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs and have little to do with the Ministry of War.

But what Li Linfu, the right minister, means is that the saint is hunting in Zhongnan Mountain right now, and many princes and grandsons are there.What if there are thieves mixed in with the team building facilities and want to find an opportunity to assassinate Zhongnan Mountain?
He is not afraid of ten thousand, but afraid of the worst, so he requested that a team of Jinwu Guards be stationed in Baqiao, and some capable personnel be transferred from the left Jinwu Guards and the right Jinwu Guards, so that Chang'an's duty would not be affected.

However, the Ministry of War under the control of Zhang Shougui revised this decree on the grounds that "the imperial city is a key point and cannot be left without authorization."Then he requested that only people from Pei Min's department in charge of the outer city be transferred, and they were stamped and signed and sent to the Jinwu Guard station.

In order to prevent Fang Chongyong from secretly transferring his troops to Chang'an City to catch the gangsters on the pretext of "passing back to the city", the Ministry of War took great pains and did not allow him to transfer any soldiers, not giving Fang Yanei any chance to make a comeback.

The appearance of eating was so ugly that even Pei Min, the general of Youjinwu Guards, who didn't want to care about these shabby things, couldn't stand it anymore.

He personally went to the Ministry of War to complain, requesting that only some members of the Left Jinwu Guard be mobilized outside the city, while the Right Jinwu Guard should patrol the outer city with all their strength to maintain the security of Chang'an City.

Pei Min has been slapped in the face by these gangsters in recent days and his face hurts. He is eager to regain his place!
But it is obvious that Pei Min's appeal has no effect at all.

The reasons given by the Ministry of War were very good. Even if the lawsuit was brought before Brother Ji, the same statement was made: the entire city of Chang'an itself existed for the imperial city.Just know which one is more serious, don't be shameless!

Could it be that the outer city of Chang'an was more important than the imperial city?

As a last resort, Pei Min had to withdraw all the Jinwu guards from the mobile posts, and leave one person on duty for each Jinwu guard in Wuhoupu on the street. The number of guards at the city gate was reduced by half, and all the others were transferred to Baqiao to maintain order. !
At the same time, the Ministry of Industry also arranged for craftsmen to guide the construction of facilities, and the Ministry of Household Affairs also launched corvee labor and mobilized people from the surrounding prefectures and counties of Chang'an to build bridges and roads here.

Everything seemed to be in order, without any disturbance.

However, under the calm water, there is an undercurrent.

Yuan Jie, a foreign candidate who was preparing to take the imperial examination this time, contacted and encouraged many foreign candidates who had been beaten and persecuted by gangsters to petition in front of Jingzhao Mansion, and asked Jingzhao Mansion Yin Zheng Shuqing to come out to talk to the candidates and give a concrete conclusion to the case. Time, tell them when they can bring those rogues to justice!

Du Fu, who had a broken leg and was still sitting in a wheelchair, came to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion and made an impassioned speech, denounced Jingzhao Mansion for its inaction, and strongly demanded that the court dismiss Zheng Shuqing from office!
Zheng Shuqing, on the other hand, once again showed his true nature as a dog official and asked for leave on the grounds of illness. He also closed the door of the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen, leaving only a small window to receive complaints.

In short, he was too shameless to come out.

He will take the case, but it is impossible to open a court to try the case, and it is even more impossible to catch those elusive gangsters!As long as Brother Ji doesn't investigate him, he can live forever!
Zheng Shuqing's rogue attitude completely angered those foreign candidates who came to Chang'an to take the imperial examination.

Under the joint organization of Yuan Jie, Du Fu, Zhang She, Xue Ju and others, these people agreed that on August [-]th, they would collectively go to the Jingzhaofu Yamen in Guangdefang for a sit-in demonstration and submit an appeal. , sued Jingzhao Prefect Zheng Shuqing's corpse, and united with those gangsters to persecute foreign candidates.

The size of the gathering will be far greater than before!
As for a series of things that happened in front of the Jingzhao Mansion, the people of Youjinwu Guard sent a Jinwu Guard with a halberd to verbally warn the imperial examination candidates who were causing trouble, and then left without looking back.

Pei Min is not Fang Chongyong, so naturally he will not give special preferential treatment to Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.Pei Min didn't even bother to implement the fine rules for "sexy operations" formulated by Zuo Jinwuwei.

The days are passing by, and August [-]th is getting closer and closer.

Fang Chongyong led Zuo Jinwu Guards' men around the imperial city without ever stepping out of the imperial city. He seemed to have resigned himself to his fate.

Rumors about the Right Prime Minister using local ruffians to persecute out-of-town candidates have intensified and have spread outside the circle of imperial examination candidates.

Not only did this news come out in the official circles of Chang'an, but even among the people, Li Linfu was jealous of talents and wanted to use despicable means to punish "real talents."

In other words, any candidate who does not go to the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen to cause trouble is a "Li Linfu comrade".

Not only that, the terror effect caused by local hooligans is still continuing. Nowadays, candidates from other places basically dare not travel alone. Each time, there are at least three people who dare to leave the hotel.Every time they go out, they never forget to spit in front of the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen and curse the dog official a few times.

On the night of August [-]th, Jingzhao Mansion held an unprecedented "flowing banquet" in the Yamen, inviting the officials from Chang'an [-]th Street to come here to attend the banquet to thank them for their support to Jingzhao Mansion Yamen this year. support.

Zheng Shuqing had no skills in handling cases, but he was very good at eating and drinking with public funds. Not only did he allocate a lot of money and food from the office funds of the Yamen and the warehouse of Gongshetian to prepare the banquet, but he also invited a skilled chef to make a banquet.

However, there was a lively banquet in the front yard of the yamen, and the atmosphere in the study in the back yard of the yamen was solemn.

In addition to the city gate supervisor who is responsible for opening the door in the West City and the Fangzheng of Guangdefang, the Fangzhengs of Yanshoufang, Yankangfang, Taipingfang, Tongyifang, Xinghuafang, Huaiyuanfang and other places around Guangdefang also They were all gathered here, and everyone looked solemn.

Zheng Shuqing stood in front of the topographic map of Fangshi in the Chang'an area hanging on the wall, coughed slightly and said: "Now, let General Fang, the general of Zuo Jinwu Guards, tell you about tomorrow's actions!"

Then he stepped aside and let Fang Chongyong, who was tall and majestic and wearing Jinwu Guard armor, stand in front of them.

"We all sign a life and death certificate. If the news is leaked, no matter who it is, we will all die together."

Fang Chongyong looked around at everyone with a gloomy expression and said, then he picked up the pen and wrote his name on the paper.

"Sign it!"

Zheng Shuqing also said in a deep voice, and then wrote his own name behind Fang Chongyong's name.

Seeing this situation, those who were present and the supervisor of the city gate supervisor were embarrassed not to sign, otherwise it would be easy for someone to frame the crime!
After everyone signed the "life and death certificate", Fang Chongyong put away the life and death certificate, picked up the thin wooden stick, pointed to Guangde Square on the map and said:
"Tomorrow at noon, the candidates who came to Chang'an for the imperial examination will hold a petition rally in front of the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, and read out a complaint in public, accusing Zheng Fuyin and asking the imperial court to dismiss him from office.

The main force of Jinwu Guards in the city has been deployed in Baqiao and the Imperial City outside the city. They will definitely not appear in Guangdefang in the short term!
Therefore, according to the inside information from the right minister, all the thieves in Chang'an City will gather here tomorrow to carry out an unprecedented beating and persecution of the imperial examination candidates who participated in the rally!

It is very possible to beat someone to death!

Therefore, I request that everyone present now, after seeing the smoke rising, close all the gates and market gates, and then send people to block all the arteries around Guangdefang!

If you see a thief coming, there is no need to arrest him, just kill him with a stick! "

Fang Chongyong's eyes were like lightning, he swept over everyone present, and asked sternly: "Do you understand?"

Everyone in the study looked at each other, and finally they all raised their hands and saluted: "We all obey General Fang's orders!"

"Very good, now I will arrange what you have to do. You are not allowed to publicize what happened the moment before it happens. As for finding a reason to gather together, you can make it up yourself. Each workshop must organize at least two people. A hundred young and strong!

At that time, a liaison officer from Jinwu Guard will contact you! "

"General Fang, Zuo Jinwu Guards still have to be on duty in the imperial city. Will they come out..."

The supervisor of the West City Gate Supervisor asked in confusion.

There was a slight flaw in the procedures for what Fang Chongyong wanted to do.Those officials didn't know it, but he, a court official, still knew it.

"Did I say someone from Zuojinwu Guard was the liaison officer?"

Fang Chongyong winked at the supervisor and hinted.

Wonderful!

Everyone was at peace, and as soon as they saw Fang Chongyong's posture, they knew that this matter was absolutely settled.

Afterwards, Fang Chongyong carefully arranged every detail. Apart from the reasons for gathering the young men and letting these gentlemen think for themselves, he also explained every other detail and how to deal with any situation in detail. .

Fang Chongyong has repeatedly simulated these details in his mind, which can almost guarantee that his actions will be foolproof.

After he finished speaking, the expressions on the faces of these gentlemen became relaxed.

"I am very confident about this operation and believe that you can handle it successfully.

But I only have one request, and that is: leave no one alive and kill him with a stick.

If I hear later that those thieves are still alive, I'm sorry, I will definitely hold your client accountable! "

Fang Chongyong looked serious and said to Fang Zheng and the supervisor who were present.

After discussing the matter, it was already late at night.The group of people arrived at the courtyard of Jingzhao Mansion Yamen and found that the banquet had ended long ago and the place was in a mess, leaving only the leftovers on the table.

"These scraps are not worth mentioning. After tomorrow, many thieves will die. If you have a feast then, you can eat until you are full."

Fang Chongyong smiled and told everyone present a cold joke.

It's just that no one among the officials and officials, including Zheng Shuqing, thought he was joking.

……

The next day, just after the opening time, candidates taking the imperial examination continued to go to the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen in Guangdefang. They did nothing and just found an empty place to sit at the door.Waiting quietly.

Soon after, Yuan Jie pushed Du Fu in a wheelchair to the Yamen.He was holding a roll of paper in his hand, which seemed to be a complaint against Zheng Shuqing, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture.

"At noon, I will read out the petition here. If the governor of Jingzhao is not dismissed from office for one day, I will stay here for one day!"

Yuan Jie yelled at everyone.

"Okay! We are all with you!"

All the candidates present echoed in unison.

In the courtyard of the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, Zheng Shuqing heard someone scolding him outside. He was confused and asked Fang Chongyong, the wise man beside him, "Can this move work?"

"Don't worry, we're all here to support you. I've practiced this move to the point where I can stab someone to death without a gun tip.

If Zheng Fuyin is still worried, he can send someone to notify the funeral shop in Fengyifang near Yanpingmen and tell them that they can prepare to collect the corpse near Guangdefang. They will have a lot of business today and will probably be busy from morning to night. "

Fang Chongyong said nonchalantly.

"Hey, what do you mean, if someone can't trust others, why can't he trust you?"

Zheng Shuqing laughed loudly.

I have been depressed for more than half a month. Whether I can turn over depends on today!
　There are only a few left to order and it will be a high-quality product. Please support it.
