Shangguan Wei knew that he was sarcastically sarcastic, and quickly explained: "Magistrate Wu has always been a more upright official than Qingshui. Yesterday you beat his son, and today Magistrate Wu went to the prefect's mansion to complain."
"Is there any misunderstanding here? Maybe the rich man's family did something evil, wrongly blamed Wu County magistrate's family, and beat the wrong person..."
"Oh, he is an upright official. Do you think there are really more upright officials than Qingshui? For example, if you have been the governor of Peicheng for two years, if the matter is not serious, have you ever turned a blind eye or closed one eye? "He joked again.
Shangguan Wei was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I have no shame in my heart and consider myself worthy of the people. The people in Peicheng have never lacked food or clothing."
He added: "Actually, sometimes it's hard to ignore a person's feelings. It's not uncommon to look at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face. This is also the way to be an official."
"I can make a bet with you on whether the son of Magistrate Wu, an upright official, is really disabled or pretending to be disabled. If he is pretending to be disabled, I don't mind letting him become a real disabled person for life. If he is really disabled, I will Let me bet you whether Magistrate Wu is an honest official or a corrupt official?"
"I bet that he is a corrupt official." Nangong Yuanyi said firmly.
Shangguan Wei's head was full of dark things. King Nan had already made a conclusion. What else did he have to say?
Shangguan Wei naturally believed in Nangong Yuanyi, and said: "How to verify this? He said that their Wu family has no descendants, and you have hurt the roots of his descendants?"
"It will never happen again. You will know once you check."
Nangong Yuanyi did take action, but maybe because his martial arts was too powerful, Magistrate Wu had nothing to do with him, so he had to go to the Prefect's Mansion, hoping that Shangguan Wei would send someone to capture the murderer and bring him to justice.
"Could Magistrate Wu still be able to make corrupt officials flawless? How did he do it?"
At this time, An Xiyue brought Fan Yi over, "It's very simple, that is, the rich man colluded with the upright officials. The upright officials secretly gave the rich man many conveniences. Of course, the rich man will repay him well. Their purpose is to make money. As long as no lives are lost, everything will be easy to solve."
"In recent years, the prince has focused mainly on cleaning up officials from all over the Northern Dynasties, so he has relaxed his treatment of unscrupulous traders."
Fan Yi also said: "Husband, Xi Yue is right. Magistrate Wu is so incorruptible. Every year he uses his own money to help the people, which makes him famous. Every time I see him, his family always eats chaff." Swallow the vegetables.”
"Isn't it true that there are three hundred taels of silver in this place?" Fan Chiyi complained.
When Shangguan Wei was in Kyoto, he was working in Jingzhao Mansion. After listening to their analysis, he naturally understood the twists and turns.
However, he really didn't see anything about Magistrate Wu.
…
At the same time, in the Lushan Palace a hundred miles away, Concubine Su was seen sitting steadily on the soft couch wearing luxurious clothes and a head full of exquisite jewelry. Her eyes were gloomy, her lips were smiling, and her sharp nails were like broken pieces. It is as bright red as poison.
There was a man kneeling below, who was also tremblingly spreading the news about the Prince's Palace in Kyoto to Concubine Su's ears.
"The prince has really let me down. Qi Siyun is from Zhou. How could she be pregnant with Rui'er's child." Concubine Su said gloomily.
"Empress, what should we do now? Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't listen to your Majesty at all. General Su asked a villain to send a message, saying that the Su family's army has been dispersed. If your Majesty doesn't think of a way, the Su family's power will be really weak."
The man was a retainer of the Su family who was hiding in Kyoto. Concubine Su had been sent out of the palace to recuperate, but she was secretly monitoring the goings-on in Kyoto at all times.
