Chapter 527 Turning enemies into friends
"Cen Mao."
Zou Yinglong lowered his voice, leaned into Fang Yi'ai's ear and murmured, and immediately revealed the "secret".
"Cen Mao? The Censor of the Procuratorate?"
"Elder Sun Dan once said before that the person who will set fire to Wufeng Tower tomorrow is the one who started the nursery rhyme."
Fang Yiai frowned slightly, and sat with Zou Yinglong on the Danji steps, whispering: "I have never had any contact with Cen Mao, why did he frame me?"
"My son-in-law." Zou Yinglong lightly rubbed his knees, and said, "Cen Mao is similar to Cai Shaobing, I wish I could find an opportunity to climb up."
"Cai Shaobing"
Fang Yiai's thoughts were aroused, and she looked at the blue sky, and said with a wry smile: "Although Cai Shaobing is a wolf, his talent is beyond the reach of Cen Mao."
"What the son-in-law said is very true." Zou Yinglong glanced sideways at Fang Yiai, feeling guilty for this opponent.
"Although Cen Mao does not have the talent of Cai Shaobing, his heart is three points better than the former."
Zou Yinglong has been around the Yushitai all year round, and he has already investigated the officials of various yamen clearly. Although the Procuratorate is ordered to supervise all officials, but for this group of Yushi Yanguan, it is nothing.
Although the censors are not good at investigation work, they can enter and leave the procuratorate with a big swagger. Although there is no order from the court, they can't stand the pen in their hands, which looks like a sword but is better than a sword. If you stop them from entering You will be impeached tomorrow. After all, not everyone is a "brick and cotton". Nine out of ten people in the government and the opposition are afraid of "impeachment".
Fang Yiai took a deep breath and said softly, "How can Yushi know Cen Mao so well?"
"Yu Shitai was originally ordered to monitor the conduct of all officials, but I have also put in a lot of painstaking efforts in dealing with the various ministries in Chang'an."
As he said that, Zou Yinglong got up slowly, seeing this, Fang Yiai stretched out his hand to help, and there were some signs of kindred spirits in his words.
"It's not suitable to stay in the East Palace for a long time, son-in-law, you and I should leave." Zou Yinglong walked down the steps slowly and murmured.
Fang Yi'ai supported Zou Yinglong with one hand, and lifted up the hem of the skirt with the other, and the two walked down Danchi slowly, towards the gate of the East Palace.
"My son-in-law, the lower officials listened to the slander and contradicted my son-in-law earlier, I hope my son-in-law will not take offense." When speaking, Zou Yinglong's cheeks were slightly red, obviously a little ashamed.
Seeing Zou Yinglong's change of attitude, Fang Yi'ai secretly laughed inwardly, shook her head and said, "This matter is also due to Fang Jun's disorderly behavior, and the treacherous people are obstructing it, so it's no wonder Yushi."
"Earlier, I listed the six major crimes committed by the son-in-law. I don't know what the son-in-law thinks about it?" Zou Yinglong glanced at Fang Yi'ai and said a tentative sentence.
Fang Yiai smiled wryly, and said with emotion: "The six major crimes are true and false, for example, Princess Xiangcheng, she does live in the Zhuangyuan's mansion."
As she said that, Fang Yiai changed the subject and said, "Yushi, is Fang Jun's behavior a bit dirty?"
Zou Yinglong paused, looked at Fang Yiai, inspected her eyes for a long time, and then said: "A son-in-law should not be like this."
"Princess Xiangcheng is suffering from a strange illness. Fang Jun is ordered by the crown prince to take care of her day and night. Up to now, she has never crossed the threshold."
After finishing speaking, Fang Yi murmured lovingly: "It's true that I didn't go overboard, Yu'er took the initiative to eat lychees back then."
"Since it is the crown prince's order, Zou has nothing to say." After speaking, Zou Yinglong stepped forward and said, "My son-in-law, is your work too aggressive?"
Fang Yiai didn't want to make any comments at first, but when Zou Yinglong asked, he had to say: "Zou Yushi is the censor of Zuodu, so it is understandable for him to be a bit sharp in his work."
"But the censor lacks a lot in observing words and demeanor." Fang Yi'ai looked at Zou Yinglong, seeing that his face was expressionless, and her heart sank.
"Look at words and looks?" Hearing these four words, Zou Yinglong immediately thought of the past when he was punished to kneel in the Chongjiao Hall. Tell me in detail?"
Seeing Zou Yinglong's eager eyes, Fang Yiai saw through his thoughts in an instant, cupped her hands and said with a smile, "Censor, are you the most virtuous officials like Bigan and Wu Jianzhang in your life?"
"That's right!" Zou Yinglong nodded heavily, and said solemnly, "As an official, I will definitely be a generation of admonishing ministers."
Seeing Zou Yinglong's straightforward answer, Fang Yiai shook his head and smiled wryly, "Censor, have you ever thought about the identities of these two people?"
"Prime Minister Bigan is a veteran of Shang Tang, and his loyalty and courage can be learned from the world."
"Wu Jianzhang of Shangzhu State in the previous dynasty, Yun Wen Yun Wu was the head of the nine elders of the Xing Sui Dynasty, and his son Wu Yunzhao was even more famous all over the world!"
Hearing Zou Yinglong's narration, Fang Yiai nodded slightly, "That's right, Wu Yunzhao is known as the Marquis of Nanyang. Isn't his son Wu Deng sent to guard Nanyang by Long Live to guard his land forever?"
"That's right, Mr. Wu inherited his father's behest and used Zhennanyang, but it's a good story." Zou Yinglong nodded while stroked his beard.
Seeing the smile on Zou Yinglong's face, Fang Yiai followed suit with a chuckle, and suddenly changed the subject: "Prime Minister Bigan and Wu Jianzhang are well-known ministers through the ages. But the monarchs they are facing are Emperor Xin, Shang, Zhou, Yang Emperor Yang of the Guang Sui Dynasty. The censor vowed to be Bigan and Wu Jianzhang, wouldn't he compare Long Live today to two foolish kings?"
Fang Yiai's words broke the confusion, and Zou Yinglong broke out in a cold sweat in shock. He stopped and looked at Fang Yiai, with trembling lips, he said, "My son-in-law, save me! My son-in-law, save me this time!"
Seeing Zou Yinglong's reaction was so great, Fang Yiai was a little speechless, cupped his hands and said: "You don't have to be like this, the effort of raising one's hand is insignificant."
The two stayed in place for a while, and then walked forward slowly after Zou Yinglong recovered.
"Zou Yushi went up to impeach me. I think I am not Fei Zhong, You Hun and others. Nor are Yang Su, Yu Wenhua and others. Although the behavior is a bit disorderly, the six crimes committed by Yushi in a row are true. It really scared Fang Jun."
Fang Yi'ai first saluted and then fought, Zou Yinglong felt ashamed when he said that, he cupped his hands repeatedly and said: "There are a lot of lords, don't be as knowledgeable as the lower officials."
"Just a joke, don't take Zou Yushi seriously." Fang Yi Ai Lang laughed, and continued: "Duomeng Yushi gave advice, Fang Jun must be careful of villains."
Zou Yinglong raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and murmured: "The son-in-law should not be too courteous about what should be done. It's just that Cen Mao is attached to the Guanlong clan, if the son-in-law touches him."
"Fang Jun has his own plan for this matter." Fang Yiai nodded in response, suddenly thinking about tomorrow's "fishing", couldn't help thinking of Zou Yinglong.
"Zou Yushi, is tomorrow the seventh day?"
"That's right, tomorrow is the seventh day of August, and it's only eight days before the consort's wedding."
"Every three or six nine days of the Eastern Palace Court Meeting, if the imperial censor is free tomorrow, can you go to the Wufeng Tower to have a talk?"
"Tomorrow?" Zou Yinglong looked embarrassed, but since he had just received Fang Yi's advice, he couldn't refuse straight away, so he cupped his hands and said, "I don't know when?"
"Tomorrow morning, what's the time?"
"Okay, tomorrow I will be waiting for you at the Wufeng Building."
"You have to change into casual clothes."
"Okay, it's a deal."
The two spoke a word, and unconsciously walked to the gate of the East Palace. Looking at the room in the distance, Fang Yiai took a look at the official clothes on her body, cupped her hands and said, "Censor, I'm going to the Ministry of Punishment to take up my post right now. Excuse me." Fang Jun is one step ahead."
"Let's go slowly, son-in-law." Zou Yinglong bowed his hands and said goodbye with respectful words.
After parting with Zou Yinglong, Fang Yiai paced towards the hall of the Ministry of Justice. After walking for about a stick of incense, just as he was about to enter the hall of the Ministry of Justice, he found a familiar figure.
"Fourth brother!"
Xue Rengui was dressed in casual clothes, and was standing under the pagoda tree in front of the criminal department in a daze, listening to Fang Yiai's call, he couldn't help chuckling, walked up to Fang Yiai, clasped his fists and said, "Brother."
"Fourth brother, didn't you go in to get a job?" Fang Yiai asked, pointing to the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment.
Xue Rengui scratched his head and chuckled, and said shyly, "The eldest brother has never come, how can the younger brother go first?"
"You and my brother don't have so many rules." Fang Yi Ai Lang laughed, put his hand on Xue Rengui's shoulder, and said with a smile: "A Confucian general asked you to follow Brother Yu to the Ministry of Punishment, but it was a bit embarrassing for you."
Xue Rengui shook his head and said, "It's a blessing to follow your elder brother, how can you say it's an embarrassment?"
"At the moment, Long Live's personal conquest, the fourth brother must be reused. Let's follow Brother Yu to endure in this yamen of the Ministry of Punishment for a while."
After finishing speaking, the two brothers Fang Yi'ai walked into the lobby together, and after asking the clerk of the study where Dianmao was, they walked into the value room together.
In the room on duty, more than a dozen officials from the Ministry of Criminal Justice were reviewing official documents in separate seats. Seeing Fang Yiai and Xue Rengui arriving, they couldn't help getting up together and saying:
"For a humble position, see the consort of the house, the governor of the house, and the servant of the house."
"For humble ranks, see Master Xue."
Fang Yiai and Xue Rengui were slightly taken aback seeing that all the officials treated them with such respect, and hurriedly returned their salutes one by one, their words were quite respectful.
"My lord, this is the official document just handed over by the procuratorate, please have a look at it, son-in-law."
A clerk sent an official document to be reviewed, Fang Yiai held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and asked casually, "Where are the officials from the Procuratorate?"
"Here."
Following the scribe's direction, I saw a man in a blue official uniform sitting in another room waiting for tea, even though it was separated by a corridor, Fang Yiai still recognized him at a glance. the person's identity.
"Cen Mao?!"
"It's really a narrow road to enemies!"
"It's the first time I take office today, and I just use him to establish my prestige!"

"Cen Mao."
Zou Yinglong lowered his voice, leaned into Fang Yi'ai's ear and murmured, and immediately revealed the "secret".
"Cen Mao? The Censor of the Procuratorate?"
"Elder Sun Dan once said before that the person who will set fire to Wufeng Tower tomorrow is the one who started the nursery rhyme."

"Cai Shaobing"
