The emperor is embarrassed

In fact, Fang Shenxing didn't have any big ambitions. Originally, he just wanted to curry favor with the king and find a way to settle down.

Unexpectedly, after struggling for many days in the court, he was accidentally sent to such a poor place to become a local parent officer and magistrate of Taiping County.

Although this place is called Taiping County, it is not peaceful at all.

In the land of Huaiyang, there are Wu Nong's soft words, the land of three thousand prosperous Suyang gold powder, and there are also places with poor mountains and bad waters. Taiping County is an example.As soon as Fang Shenxing set foot on the land of Taiping County, he sighed secretly, thinking to himself, it seems that he has indeed aroused the emperor's disgust, otherwise the emperor would not be able to throw him to this shitty land.

Fang Shenxing took a walk around Taiping County, and was already thinking about whether to send his family back to the imperial capital for a visit so that he could go back to the imperial capital as soon as possible.But after thinking about it, he was discouraged again. The Fang family had long been defeated in the imperial capital, and his own family was not very rich. Besides, there were many enemies in the imperial capital.This time when he came to Taiping County, Fang Shenxing brought his wife and children with him, and even his mother and brothers came with him.

Originally his younger brother wanted to study in the imperial capital, but after Fang Shenxing went through the lawsuit, in order to be on the safe side, he really didn't dare to leave his family in the imperial capital.Otherwise, he was far away in Huaiyang, and Fang Shenxing couldn't imagine what would happen to his family.

When Fang Shenxing took office as a new official, the prestige of the magistrate of the county had not had time to shake, but unexpectedly, people came back and forth to lower his authority, which was extremely embarrassing.

Of course, he was not the only one who was ashamed, but also his brother Song Zhuyu who was sent to Taiping County next door to be the magistrate of the county.

The cause of the incident was not complicated. Although the two counties were disaster-stricken counties, there were actually a few wealthy households.The well-known big family in Taiping County is the Guo family who sell medicinal materials for a living. Regardless of being from a small county, the Guo family's business is doing well. There is a medicine store in Yangzhou City, which is a well-known businessman.

In Shanyang County, there is also a merchant of medicinal materials, also surnamed Guo.

Both families are surnamed Guo, so there is naturally some connection.After all, Guo Yaozong, the patriarch of the Guo family in Shanyang, is the younger brother of Guo Yaozu, the patriarch of the Guo family in Taiping County.

At the beginning, there was only one branch of the Guo family in Taiping County. Father Guo opened a medicine shop, and his business was quite ordinary, just emerging in a small county.Father Guo gave birth to two sons, the legitimate son Guo Yaozu and the concubine Guo Yaozong. These two sons are very capable.As a result, as soon as Father Guo died, the Guo family fell into a dispute over production.

In the end, Guo Yaozong was found by Guo Yaozu because he was young and inexperienced.Unexpectedly, ten years later, Guo Yaozong came back again, and he settled down in Shanyang County next door to Taiping County, where he also made a living selling medicinal materials.

Guo Yaozong has now established a relationship with Shanrentang in Huaiyang and has become one of the medicinal material suppliers of Shanrentang in Huaiyang. It has to be said that this is Guo Yaozong's ability.

If it's just a business competition, it won't go to court.The point is, all of a sudden, the incest case of Guo Yaozu's son and concubine broke out in Guo Yaozu's family, and Guo Yaozu's reputation plummeted.All kinds of means are not enough for outsiders.Both of them are local snakes, so it is natural for them to be rich and powerful.

This kind of battle between merchants is completely different from that of ordinary hooligans fighting in gangs. For example, Guo Yaozu and Guo Yaozong had different degrees of medical disputes in front of the two medicinal material shops, and even the two shops in Yangzhou City were frequently patronized by hooligans.

As for the reasons behind it, who knows?

The Guo brothers fought for the top, and finally Mrs. Guo handed over a complaint to the court, accusing the concubine Guo Yaozong of being unfilial and going to court.Then, Guo Yaozong filed a lawsuit, accusing his elder brother of lax family management, unfavorable parenting, and embarrassment of his family.

Regardless of who is right or wrong among the Guo family brothers, only the incest case of Guo Yaozu's aunt and concubine's mother and the case of Guo Yaozong's aunt's mother suing the concubine's son are all extremely serious cases of indecency. You must know that you, the county magistrate, not only govern the local area, but also educate the people responsibility.During your tenure, when such a case broke out, what did your magistrate do for food?

This is your responsibility.

Of course, anyone who understands this matter has to say that the two of Song and Fang are unlucky. Who can blame them for such an unlucky lawsuit when they just arrived in office?I can only blame heaven and earth and blame fate.

The censor doesn't care about you, they only care about picking the wrong ones, and the most worrying thing is that there is no new topic. When encountering such a case, they dare not report it immediately.As for Lin Yongshang, although he valued the two of them more, he didn't stop him.

First of all, Lin Yongshang was a censor, and it was the censor's responsibility to play rumors.Furthermore, the local censor has the right to play independently, without the consent of your governor's office at all.Third, in Lin Yongshang's view, it is not necessarily a bad thing to suffer a loss, and he is not the father of the two, so it depends on the abilities of the two of them.

Ming Zhan received the censor's memorial, but in fact, there is no need to dismiss him. The place where Song Zhuyu went cautiously was poor, and no one wanted to be that poor official.However, if they encountered such a case as soon as they took office, at least in this year's assessment, the two of them would not be able to take the first place.

This is only the initial impact, and it may even be detrimental to promotion three years later.

Ming Zhan didn't say much, just let the cabinet deal with it.

All the people in the cabinet secretly praised His Majesty's justice. After all, Ming Zhan's protection of his shortcomings when he first ascended the throne was very contemptuous.Now, His Majesty the Emperor has returned to normalization, and the cabinet is gradually relieved.

The emperor is also a human being and has his own preferences. However, if an emperor puts his own preferences above the laws and regulations, it will be very worrying.

Now that Ming Zhan is back to normal, Li Pingzhou is especially relieved.

But then, the Prime Minister Li Pingzhou discovered that the emperor was back to normal, but the clan began to stir up anger.

Ming Zhan got the news about the Zhongyihou's family from the Empress Dowager Self-Defense.

On that day, the Wei clan showed off his masculinity and stripped off the face of Zhongyihou's mother and son. In front of so many women and maids, the dignity of Zhongyihou's mother and son was completely gone.

Hou Zhongyi is a man after all, and his relationship with Wei Shi is not very good, there is no relationship between husband and wife, but Wei Shi staggered because of his unpreparedness for a while, and when he came back to his senses, how could he not have an attack.The Marquis of Zhongyi was about to show Wei Shi how powerful he was, but he was blocked in front of him.

Don't forget, Wei Shi has a son.

Feng Mingli stood in front of his mother, facing Zhongyi Hou Tieqing's face and said, "Father, please speak up if you have something to say. Mother is for me, everyone as a family, sit down and talk about things."

Marquis Zhongyi had scruples about the Wei family, but he was not so polite to Feng Mingli. He slapped Feng Mingli on the head, almost knocked Feng Mingli over, pointed at Feng Mingli's nose and cursed, "You know that too. You started it, you bastard!"

Hou Zhongyi was in his prime, and he was very powerful when he slapped someone, Feng Mingli's mouth and nose were bleeding from a slap.Feng Mingli took out a white handkerchief from his sleeve, gently wiped off the blood, and said calmly, "Father, I didn't bring up the job change. You said I started it, I don't Dare to admit it."

When Mrs. Fang heard this, she quit immediately, and asked angrily, "I mentioned it, and I'm all to blame, right?"

"Grandmother wants to change, but she has already changed. Mother is not happy, but she agrees." Feng Mingli said calmly, "I was born by my mother, and my father was born by my grandmother. I heard that the family was separated when my grandfather was alive. Grandmother is not willing to give more land to the third uncle from the concubine. She can be regarded as a kind mother who has protected my father so far. Grandmother compares her heart to heart, and now it is not just a matter of one hectare, it is entirely my job to the third brother. Originally I don't need to do the job of the third brother, but let it go to the second brother. I am the elder brother, and it is right to let the younger brothers. Back then, I think my father also wanted to let the third uncle. Now the mother's heart is the same. In terms of grandma's heart back then, it doesn't matter whether she blames anyone or not, I just ask grandma's father to understand the next mother's love for her son."

"I'm in good health, and I've never been good at Buddhism. Grandma said I'm not in good health, but she was wrong." Feng Mingli said flatly, "I'm the elder brother who let the younger brothers go , It has nothing to do with not being able to work because of poor health. I am not a saint. If I let go, I hope my younger brothers will know my good son, but my grandmother said that I am not in good health so I can’t be employed. Do I have to be grateful the other way around? Is the younger brother doing a job for the elder brother who is not in good health? Grandma, you can't say that."

Old lady Fang was so angry that she turned her head to her son and said, "Look, look, once you invite the eldest son, you haven't become a noble yet, so you want to piss us off so that the prince can control the Marquis's mansion." Well. I'd better go there earlier, so I don't have to watch a room full of disobedient and unfilial people lose their lives..." Another burst of crying.

Feng Mingli said calmly, "It's my grandson's unfilial piety to make grandma so sad. Since grandma is so unhappy, I have my own way to make grandma happy." After finishing speaking, Feng Mingli took Wei Shi out of the Hou's mansion .

Then, Feng Ming set up Zhezi, and asked His Majesty the Emperor to abolish his position as the eldest son, and transfer the title of Feng Mingzhi, the third younger brother of his concubine, to be the eldest son, so that he can become a noble in the future and be filial to his grandmother.

It was a stroke of genius.

The willows are dark and the flowers are bright, put them to death and then live again.

Ming Zhan received Feng Mingli's note, and immediately summoned Zhongyi Hou and his son to ask the truth, and said angrily, "What do you consider my title? The Chinese cabbage in the market is worthless, right? You can give it to whoever you want ? You turned to be my master! It's the opposite! Do you still have me in your eyes? Do you still have the rules of your ancestors?"

Hou Zhongyi has always felt that his son has the same temper as dough, he can be rounded and flattened according to the king's will, but who knows that this honest man is even more ruthless when he makes a move, and the first move is a ruthless move.

When Ming Zhan got angry, he was quite shocking!At this time, Hou Zhongyi didn't care to scold his son, and hastily kowtowed his head to admit his mistake, "The dog was obsessed with ghosts for a while, and talked nonsense, please don't care about him like him." He slapped Feng Mingli on the back of the head severely, and reprimanded, "Hurry up and talk to your majesty. Admit your mistake, what kind of confusion are you doing?" Damn, is the title of title just your business?It is related to the honor and disgrace of the whole family.

Feng Mingli was really stubborn, he didn't change his original intention after being slapped, insisted, "Your Majesty, to be honest, although I am the eldest son of the family, I don't like my grandmother. Because I was made the eldest son, Grandmother has been displeased several times. If you offend the old man because of the minister's affairs, it will be considered unfilial, please Your Majesty to choose another virtuous person, I really cannot take the position of the eldest son."

Ming Zhan glanced at Hou Zhongyi, and Hou Zhongyi's expression was not to mention embarrassing.Feng Mingli continued, "My mother is already in her fifties, so she is often blamed by her grandmother. My father respects my grandmother, so I have to wrong my mother. But my mother is also my mother. I can't bear to see my mother suffer, and I am willing to give up my eldest son. Even in the future, it will be rare to have peace and happiness."

"Furthermore, although my parents have been married for many years, their relationship is indifferent, and they have long since ceased to be husband and wife. I beg Your Majesty to allow my parents to reconcile. In this way, we will live happily ever after." Feng Mingli's words made Zhongyi completely Hou lost the ability to react, this, this, his own son wants them to reconcile their husband and wife?What kind of world is this!

Ming Zhan admired Feng Mingli's courage, but he couldn't draw such a simple conclusion at this time.

In fact, Ming Zhan thinks that Feng Mingli is not as honest as he appears on the surface, although Feng Mingli is nothing to worry about.However, Ming Zhan had a good impression of Feng Mingli.There are too many people in the clan, it would be good for Feng Mingli to cut in.Talented and learned, he recommended himself to Wanjuan Palace. Zhong Jingshu admired Feng Mingli's spirit of compiling books.

Furthermore, based on Feng Mingli's background, his biological mother Wei, and his maternal grandfather, the old Marquis of Yongning, are not easy to mess with.Even if Feng Mingli really wants the title, can Wei agree?Can the Marquis of Yongning agree?

In itself, this matter is not up to Feng Mingli to decide.However, Feng Mingli just wrote the letter directly, and there are many meanings in it.

Ming Zhan scolded with a straight face, "What kind of bastard talk is this? As a son of man, you want your parents to reconcile. Fortunately, your surname is Feng. If this word gets out, the face of the Feng family will be completely humiliated by you." !" Actually, in Ming Zhan's opinion, Empress Dowager Wei should also make peace with Feng Jingnan, but he didn't have the guts of Feng Mingli to say such a thing.Otherwise, the Empress Dowager Wei would have to beat Feng Jingnan to death first.Of course it doesn't mean that the Empress Dowager Wei likes Feng Jingnan, the throne is really not easy to come by, so it's not such a toss.

After recalling Feng Mingli's words for a moment, Ming Zhan turned his head and scolded Hou Zhongyi again, "What's the matter with you? The dignified Marquis, you messed up even the family affairs! The important matter of the succession of the title, is it up to you or your old lady? I see that you are all burnt for glory and wealth, and you don’t know who your surname is! If you think the title is hot, tell me in advance, and I will help you!"

"Okay, back off, I have never seen such a strange thing as your father and son!"

Hou Zhongyi did not expect Feng Mingli to be so bold.

The father and son left the Xuande Hall, and the Marquis of Zhongyi scolded in a low voice, "What are you going to do? You want to sue me and your grandmother?" He nodded his head, and the Marquis of Zhongyi sneered, "You have a good wife now. Master, are you really promising? I didn't know before that you have such a skill?"

Feng Mingli said, "If my father and mother reconcile, I will no longer be a legitimate son, and naturally lose the qualification to inherit the title. No matter how good my parents are, my surname is not Wei. My uncle is younger than me, and he and my mother are not of the same mother." out."

Marquis Zhongyi was dumb for a moment, he was not a fool, if there was a reconciliation, no matter how domineering the Marquis of Yongning, Feng Mingli would not be able to attack him again.Thinking of the matter of reconciliation, Hou Zhongyi's palms started to itch, and he wished he could give Feng Mingli two slaps to clear his head.

Feng Mingli looked at Zhongyi Houdao with a sad look, "As far as I can remember, I have never seen my father enter my mother's house, not even once. I sincerely hope that you will reconcile. My mother is still young and has a dowry nearby." I have reached my thirties, so I can support my family no matter what. Father, what I say is true. Just like my father defends my grandmother in everything, I don’t want to see my mother being wronged."

Hou Zhongyi said annoyedly, "The matter between me and your mother is beyond your scope. As for your grandmother, at this age, just coax her, and treat her as a duty of filial piety to your children and grandchildren. You are going to make a fuss Go to the imperial court and say these nonsensical things, you won't be ashamed." Although Marquis Zhongyi didn't like Feng Mingli very much, he really didn't intend to replace him.

Liking and reality are two different things, and Hou Zhongyi can still tell the difference.The mansion of the Marquis of Yongning is so powerful, let alone the old Marquis of Yongning is still there.Although, as Feng Mingli said, Marquis of Yongning, Wei Yingjia, and the Wei family are half-brothers, but the old Marquis of Yongning is his grandfather.

How could the Marquis of Yongning stay out of such a major event?

In-laws are for communication, not for enmity.

With Feng Mingli's magical writing, Hou Zhongyi had a terrible headache. As he walked away, he whispered to Feng Mingli, "Now the third child's job is resigned, you can do it if you want to study. I will take you tomorrow." Mother, let's go back home, if something happens, it will make a big fuss."

"Father, don't you want to see more?" Feng Mingli asked.

Marquis Zhongyi didn't understand Feng Mingli's meaning for a moment, "What are you looking at? What's so interesting? I haven't lost enough embarrassment."

There was still a light bruise at the corner of Feng Mingli's mouth, but it did not damage his demeanor, "Father always thought that my mother and I could not bear even a little grievance because of the power of our natal family. I will understand that my younger brothers have grown up too.”

Hou Zhongyi is still worrying about family affairs.

Zhennan Wang Fengjingnan, who is also a father, jumped his feet angrily because of a letter from Mingzhan, and scolded Mingzhan for several days, making Fengjing laugh half to death.

Ming Zhan didn't know what to think in his head, anyway, he was very touched by the matter of Zhongyi Hou and his son, so he wrote a divorce letter to Feng Jingnan to talk about his feelings.

At first, Feng Jingnan was quite happy when he received Ming Zhan's letter.From Feng Jingnan's point of view, these years, Ming Zhan has gradually become more sensible and sensible, and every time he reads Ming Zhan's letter, Feng Jingnan feels overwhelmed.

However, Feng Jingnan's face turned green as soon as he read this letter.

The letter is as follows:

Dear Father: (About Ming Zhan always using such nasty beginnings, Feng Jingnan has already gotten used to it, and slowly began to find it useful.)

Don't be too surprised to write to you out of the blue.It is really because I have encountered a very incredible thing, and then hurt myself because of it, and sighed endlessly.And because of this, I found out that father, you are really not the worst dad in the world.Today, I got to know a strange person, he is simply worse than you in being a father.

(Just looking at these three lines, Feng Jingnan blew his beard and stared angrily, and this bastard started to fart again! What kind of bullshit is this! Is he bad? Obviously that little bastard himself is strange. Like this Taking out the letter is enough to charge that bastard as unfilial! Of course, with Ming Zhan's current status, Feng Jingnan doesn't have the ability to convict Ming Zhan. However, Feng Jingnan is very upset. Yes. The following content made Feng Jingnan even more unhappy.)

Ming Zhan first briefly talked about the Zhongyi Hou's family, and then continued to write:

The affairs of Zhongyihou's family are really similar to ours, but at the initial stage, I think you are less authentic than Zhongyihou.I think back then, when I was young in the second and fifth grades of junior high school, you sent me to the imperial capital as a hostage, how heartless you were.However, I think the emperor's grandmother is more benevolent and righteous than Zhongyihou's mother.Although the imperial grandmother was partial, she never asked me to give up good things to Mingli and the others.Of course, if the imperial grandmother really requested this, I would not comply. (A rebellious kid by nature.)

I say this, father, you must be unhappy.But what is the solution?In the past, I read in books that the trauma left by people in childhood often stays with them for a lifetime. (Feng Jingnan couldn't help curling his lips, Dou Da's characters don't know Yisheng, you come to get nervous with me after reading a fart book. He has been raped since he was a child, and he pretended to be a fool and pretended to be a fool. No wonder who was looking for it.)

Father, your indifference to me when I was young made me full of longing and fear for fatherly love, and then, when I grew up, you always had prejudices against my various actions. Perhaps such complicated feelings may affect me life.Before I knew it, I confessed my fragile heart in front of my father.I don't know how you feel, father? (I have fart thoughts. My impressions are why I didn’t give you loose skins when you were not enthroned. Now I have the guts to send me such a letter! You are a bastard born to be beaten!)

However, father, you don't have to feel guilty.Who told me that I was born with benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness, possessing all five virtues, and a born filial son.I have written my father's badness to me on the beach, and there is no trace when the tide ebbs and flows; and I have engraved my father's kindness to me on a stone, which will be remembered forever. (Feng Jingnan doesn't think he has anything to be ashamed of, and he also thinks he has nothing wrong with Ming Zhan. Without his wise teaching, the boy would not be where he is today. Ming Zhan, on the other hand, will become more and more disgusting people!)

In fact, Feng Jingnan really admired Ming Zhan's narcissistic ability. Every time he wrote a letter, he could brag about himself, but he didn't know who he looked like.Lao Feng's family doesn't have such a shameful family tradition, even Ming Zhan's own mother is a special person who wants to save face, so why did they raise a freak like Ming Zhan.Feng Jingnan endured vomiting and continued to read, Ming Zhan had already written:

There is one more thing I want to discuss with my father, Xue Shaoliang has already gone to hunt down the fugitives, and asked my father to send out false news on his behalf, saying that the emperor's uncle is going back to the imperial capital suddenly, and arrange a car to drive, and Zheng Kaijun will return to the imperial capital with a guard of honor.

This matter is confidential, so I can't discuss it with my father in detail.Of course, if my father is willing to communicate with me about the affairs of Yunnan, Guizhou and the imperial capital, I am also willing to discuss with my father.

At the end of the letter, Ming Zhan drew a grimace with a round face and tongue sticking out, and signed: Ming Zhan who still loves you.

Feng Jingnan was speechless about Ming Zhan's bad taste.Still love every day or not, disgusting to death, okay?Freak, freak, how could he give birth to such a freak!

Heck, he's still playing tricks with him, what kind of bullshit secrets, it's just that this kid is going to make trouble!

Feng Jingnan snorted, put the letter back in the envelope, and kept it secret, so that his elder brother must not see it, otherwise he would definitely make a joke of it.For a face-conscious person like Feng Jingnan, no matter how upset he is, he can't let others know.

However, on the second day, Feng Jingnan found out that he not only gave birth to a son who was cunning, but also a brother who was cunning. He didn't know where Feng Jingqian knew about Ming Zhan's letter. The letter was given to him by Ming Zhan, and it was Feng Jingnan who kept the letter privately.Feng Jingnan couldn't get entangled, so he had to show Feng Jingnan.

After Feng Jingqian read it, Feng Jingnan had been laughing at this matter for half a month.
