Mr. Yan paused for a moment, observed Zhang Shi's reaction, and continued: "In Banshanfang, just because people don't like Buddhism, they used Banshan Daily to mobilize the people, and within a few days, Fuyun Temple in Banshanfang became a It’s a ruin! It’s said that the abbot’s temperament changed so much that he sneaked into the mountains and became a savage!”
"This incident clearly shows that he is narrow-minded and will retaliate! He can do this to a monk who has no influence on him..."
"Although you two don't have any big hatred, according to his character, if he takes over the power in the future, will he let you go?"
Zhang Shi picked up the teacup to hide his nervousness.
Yes, Fang Zheng is usually a quiet person when he goes to court, and when he opens his mouth, he announces good news.
But if you have a conflict with someone, you must be unforgiving.
Besides, his son had already been severely punished by him, and yet he even wanted to retaliate in the examination room!
Don't care about your own reaction at all!
This is enough to prove that this person is determined to retaliate!
If he really gains power in the future... he will not suffer a big disaster?
After thinking about it, Zhang Shi calmly put down the tea cup: "What do you think, Mr. Yan? I think Mr. Yan means that if Fang Zheng continues to let it go, I'm afraid it will grow into a cancer for the imperial court."
Mr. Yan sighed: "That's right... Your Majesty has left it alone, and the Crown Prince has no independent opinion. This traitor will definitely be a thorn in my side in the future!"
Zhang Shi sighed: "Well, in this case, how should Yan Gong think about eradicating this cancer? You won't let me be the vanguard, right?"
Mr. Yan gently shook his sleeves: "Yes, it should be so. Only when you and I cooperate can we have a chance."
"But I can't come forward now, I need you to be in front..."
It's a showdown, right?
Zhang Shi chuckled lightly, stood up and saluted: "Mr. Yan, I've been harassing you a lot today, please take my leave!"
"Hey! Wait a minute! Don't leave, I haven't finished speaking yet!" Seeing Zhang Shi really leaving, Mr. Yan kept urging him to stay.
Zhang Shi slowly turned around and said, "Mr. Yan, please stay. I'm just here to inform you of this matter, and I have no other intention!"
"It's getting late, I should go."
Yan Lao stood up and grabbed Zhang Shi's sleeve, looking at him angrily.
Young people don’t respect martial ethics! Just leave!
Then he said angrily in a low voice: "Are you willing to be teased by a child many times as your dignified minister of household affairs?"
"It's all a joke, so be it. Isn't Mr. Yan willing to give up his personal grudges for the sake of the family? This junior should learn more from you."
"you!....."
Old Yan sighed: "Sit down and talk, and listen to what I have to say."
Zhang Shi nodded, and the two turned back to their seats.
Mr. Yan looked at Zhang Shi and continued: "I might as well just say it clearly."
"If Fang Zheng doesn't die, I won't die with my eyes open! I will definitely avenge Guoan."
"But I can't let go of this family, so if we want to properly solve this problem, only you and I can cooperate."
"Now you just need to tell me whether you want Fang Zhengyi to leave the court."
Zhang Shi nodded slowly.
He also wanted to kill Fang Zhengyi, but the prince obviously wanted to live.
But he didn't mind trampling Fang Zhengyi into the mud first. If he didn't have an official status, he would be just a dog next to the prince.
"Then your goals and mine don't conflict."
"But the evidence that Fang Zhengyi is connected with Beirong is not enough to influence him, so what should we do?" Zhang Shi asked.
"Although these things currently have some effect, the evidence is not strong enough."
"The Beirong envoy must have brought cash to the capital, so since they want to pay bribes, they must act covertly. The money will definitely be taken to the bank and exchanged for banknotes."
"If you want to exchange such a huge amount of money at a bank, Honglu Temple will definitely send translators and escorts."
"If we send someone to the Fang Mansion to offer bribes, the people in the mission are not familiar with the roads in the capital, and they have no map, so when we go to the Fang Mansion, it is very likely that the translator from Honglu Temple will lead the way in the name of a visit."
"In this way, the evidence can kill Fang Zhengyi for accepting bribes!"
Zhang Shi frowned: "How to bite him to death? If the Beirong people just visit Fang Zhengyi, who can see with their own eyes to prove that he took bribes?"
Mr. Yan shook his head with a smile: "You don't need to be seen. If the Beirong people really go to the bank to exchange banknotes, it will make people suspicious of their motives."
"On weekdays, Honglu Temple helps them with their purchases. All they need is cash. Do they have to use banknotes?"
"Secondly, there must be someone from Beirong who paid a private visit to Fang Zhengyi, plus Chen Hong's witness!"
"Everything is in line with common sense. What people think is the answer! When the time comes, let Fang Zhengyi prove his innocence! No matter how full his mouth is, he can't explain clearly."
"We can also ask the court to send people to search Fang Zheng's family to prove his innocence. If he refuses, there is something wrong in his heart! Even if he does not accept bribes, can a person with a huge wealth like Fang Zhengyi withstand the investigation?"
This piece of old ginger is really poisonous.
Zhang Shi raised his hands and smiled: "Yes, but what you said is not enough to defeat him."
Mr. Yan sighed: "Indeed, so we can't touch him yet."
"We have to wait! Wait for Fang Zhengyi's next mistake and punish him for both crimes before he can kill with one strike!"
"Otherwise, the influence of the Prince will sooner or later make him rise again."
Zhang Shi asked: "Then... why did Duke Yan say that I should go first? Does it make any difference between you and me who attacks first? Also, can we just wait?"
"Can Your Majesty not see clearly the grudge between Fang Zhengyi and my Yan family? Your Majesty is already partial, and it will be even more difficult to deal with it."
"So you need to be there before me, but you can't wait until the opportunity arises."
"As the saying goes, a person's words can be feared, and three people can become a tiger. First, let the people below you report to His Majesty from time to time."
"Don't use too strong words. If you attack Fang Zhengyi from the side, like this time, you can show that His Majesty Zhengyi has too close personal relationship with the Beirong people."
"After such a long time, maybe I can change His Majesty's mind and let His Majesty see the true face of Thief Fang. You are more suitable than me for this matter."
"As soon as Fang Zheng shows his weakness, I will take the initiative to come forward!"
Zhang Shi had a look of understanding on his face: "Then...I understand. It's getting late, Mr. Yan, and I really have to say goodbye this time."
"Slow down, I won't send you off..."
........
The next day, Yangxin Hall.
Emperor Jing held two memorials and kept comparing them.
A memorial from the Hu Ke to Shizhong, and another from the Hanlin Academy
At this time, Guo Tianyang came hurriedly from outside the door, holding a newspaper in his hand, walked up to Emperor Jing and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, today's Banshan Daily has been delivered, and the front page news is for the Beirong Mission."
"Read it." Emperor Jing said without raising his head.
"The friendship between Dajing and Beirong lasts forever. Lihan, a young man from Beirong, entered the capital of Dajing for the first time in his life and experienced a different life..."
"As we all know, Beirong is full of wolves and life is extremely dangerous. For the first time in his life, Lihan felt the security of eating barbecue at midnight..."
"In addition to barbecue, he also fell in love with hot pot and stir-fry. Before returning to Beirong, Lihan shouted emotionally, our Dajing is really amazing! I will also be a Dajing person in my next life..."
Emperor Jing's face turned as red as a freshly steamed crab.
An indescribable feeling of shame rushed from the toes to the top of the head, and it took a sip of tea to calm down.
Then he hesitated and said: "This... Beirong people don't know this thing..."
Guo Tianyang's face was also flushed: "I don't think I knew that the news was released after the envoys left."
"On the day the delegation left...it seems that His Highness and Mr. Fang personally took the reporters there..."
"Tell those two evildoers not to do such messy things in the future! Is there anything serious!!"
After saying that, he threw away the two memorials in his hands in disgust.
Is this called having too close a relationship with a suspected Beirong person?
Don’t talk about Beirong people! I even want to slap him!
