Logically speaking, Cao Yangyun was not qualified to go directly to Nei Shi Yamen to ask for money without Ran Fang's order.
But even so, Naishi couldn't possibly say that he wouldn't give them the money, but that he could only withdraw the money after getting Ran Fang's warrant.
The current attitude is obviously looking down on Ran Fang and the pro-military Duwei Mansion.
In other words, he got an order from a certain minister to make things difficult for them.
Gu Siyuan originally thought that based on Ran Fang's ability, he should be highly respected in the court, but he did not expect that someone would give him a blow as soon as he took office.
He glanced at Cao Yangyun, who looked embarrassed, took out a purse from his arms, and said, "Take these, and put all those things away first. Don't make others laugh."
"Thank you, sir."
After saying that, Cao Yangyun saluted the two of them gratefully, and then happily ran away with the money.
After Cao Yangyun left, Ran Fang said helplessly, "What do you mean?"
Gu Siyuan didn't seem to hear. He sat across from Ran Fang angrily and said angrily: "What does Nei Shi Yamen mean by this?!"
"His Majesty has already decreed that you are the one with the silver seal and green ribbon, so naturally the pro-military captain's mansion should also allocate funds. They are deliberately making things difficult for you!"
"Go to the palace immediately and report to His Majesty, and His Majesty will definitely make the decision for you!"
Seeing his bulging cheeks due to anger, Ran Fang couldn't help but laugh.
He had never thought about being deducted money, and even if he had thought about it, he wouldn't have cared about it.
After all, he was a commander who suddenly appeared. He had no power in the court, so he would make people jealous. Moreover, he was deeply trusted by His Majesty. These people would definitely not let him go.
But because of His Majesty's face, they could only use some unspeakable methods.
"Since they dare to do this, they won't worry about His Majesty knowing about it."
"After all, even if it reaches His Majesty's ears, they can say that there is no precedent. Your Majesty will naturally not punish them, and may even think that I am incompetent."
Gu Siyuan was speechless. Although he didn't understand the twists and turns in the court, his business family had seen those dirty tricks since he was a child. He immediately understood the meaning of Ran Fang's words.
"That……"
"Then how should this matter be resolved?"
"Are you really just going to swallow your anger like that?"
"If you back down now, then anyone can step on you in the future. How will you deal with it then?"
"Don't worry, my Gu family can help you during this time. If you are short of money, just ask!"
Ran Fang couldn't help but smile when he heard what he said.
"It's rare to find a person as straightforward as you."
"Don't worry, this matter doesn't have to do with the Gu family. I have my own solution."
Gu Siyuan wanted to say something else, but when he caught Ran Fang's eyes, he swallowed the words silently.
"Okay, if anything happens, just send someone to look for me."
"I'm going back today."
Before leaving the house, he was still thinking about going back and telling his father about the matter. He could not allow anyone to bully Ran Fang.
Ran Fang didn't know what he was thinking, but he was also thinking about it.
If he went to Neishi now, those people would not dare to deliberately embarrass him, but they would not give him too much money.
And those who deliberately made things difficult for him must be watching the joke secretly now, waiting for him to ask for help.
Especially now that the pro-military captain's mansion is in dire straits and needs money for many things, it is impossible to rely on others, so it is better to rely on yourself.
In this case, let's think of a way to make money, and he will let those people take a good look!
…
Internal history yamen.
Zhisu Neishi is in charge of the treasury of the Qin Dynasty. Those who can serve here are the descendants of the nobles in Xianyang City, and they are usually fawned over.
At this moment, the officials in the yamen were all sitting together, with mockery on their faces.
A small official sitting at the bottom had a smile all over his face, but the words in his mouth were so uncomfortable.
"Hahaha, a little jailer dares to come to our place and ask for money, and he also says he is someone from the pro-military captain's mansion. It is simply ridiculous!"
His words made many people cater to him and gave him a thumbs up.
Many people also echoed, saying: "Who doesn't know that he is the little jailer of Xianyang Prison, and he dares to set foot in my internal history's yamen."
"When they heard that His Majesty made Ran Fang a commander and gave him a silver seal and a green ribbon, they thought they had turned into a phoenix by flying on a chicken's head."
"What is the position of the commander? We have never heard of it. His Majesty must have given him an official position at will."
"Hahaha, that's right."
The people below were already laughing. They all seemed to look down on Ran Fang and his position as commander.
When they had finished talking, someone turned their attention to the person in the first place.
"Sir, do you think Ran Fang will come here and ask us for an explanation?"
The person sitting in the first place is none other than Taicang Prime Minister Miao Yuan. His position is lower than that of Taicang Magistrate Xu Yuwen, and he should not have too much involvement in the affairs of Su Neishi.
But Xu Yuwen is now in Sishui County, and he has taken charge of the yamen that governs Su Neishi. He also has the intention to replace Xu Yuwen and get rid of all the people before Xu Yuwen.
Now, the Internal Affairs Office has become his sole authority.
Now when he heard them mention Ran Fang, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
"Won't."
"Ran Fang is smart. He knows that even if he comes, he won't get any benefits."
"Even if he comes, he can use the excuse that Xu Yuwen is not here. There is no one to handle the internal affairs. We have to wait until Xu Yuwen comes back to discuss anything."
"When the time comes, even if it reaches His Majesty, I won't be able to find fault with myself."
The people below praised him repeatedly, and they were happy if they could trouble Ran Fang.
"The adults are still awesome."
"In that case, I can rest assured. As long as they dare to come, we will never let them go!"
Miao Yuan said nothing, which was equivalent to acquiescing to this matter.
He had long disliked Xu Yuwen, and knew that Xu Yuwen went to Xianyang Prison to meet Ran Fang before leaving Xianyang, and then left with Hu Hai with confidence.
Although he didn't know what Ran Fang said to him, he also knew that Ran Fang must have given him some advice, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to walk so freely.
Moreover, he recently intercepted Xu Yuwen's letter, which told the housekeeper to find Ran Fang, which meant that Ran Fang was with Xu Yuwen.
In this case, how could he make Ran Fang feel better?
He wanted to see what Xu Yuwen could accomplish in Surabaya County without Ran Fang's help.
"Don't go too far."
"After all, Ran Fang is also a minister in the DPRK, and he will be a colleague in the future. He always has to give some face, otherwise he will leave something to say, and it will be difficult for the officials in the DPRK to come forward to help."
"As for those jailers, they dare to come here to ask for money without a handwriting. This is an excessive act and no one will criticize them."
With this said, they knew what was going on. Even if they wanted to embarrass Ran Fang, they couldn't do it too obviously, otherwise it would be difficult to tell if His Majesty or others asked about it in the future.
"Here!"
"Don't worry, sir, I know what I'm talking about."
But they didn't expect that Ran Fang never came here again, but they ended up demanding it on Ran Fang's head.
