The so-called Bi Qi Niang Zhi means to go to his mother. This is a curse word that can kill people. In ancient times, this was equivalent to greeting one's mother.

This is very serious.

Everyone hangs out in the same circle, wearing official uniforms and official hats, so how can they utter dirty words and ask questions about their parents?

Even if you are swearing at someone, you have to be a little reserved. Learn from those censors who scolded people for eighteen generations and quoted scriptures without using a single curse word. For example, "Well frogs cannot speak of the sea, summer insects cannot speak of the ice", "One hundred and forty thousand people were all disarmed, and not one of them was a man", "Shuo Shuo Shuo Shu" and so on.

Who can bear to directly call someone a motherfucker?

But the problem is that although Lin Fang came from the official circles, he was not from the imperial examination, and his education level is limited... After all, this man has not passed a few exams. The reason why he is an official is completely It relies on the democratic approach of "promoting filial piety and integrity".

Growing food at home and becoming a rich man is just a little filial, not letting dogs bite anyone, and not robbing anyone's women. In addition, "valuing righteousness but not profit, being suave and generous", the result is that he becomes a good person and has a good reputation. So he was recommended and became an official in the court...

Although in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, it was almost impossible to become an official without passing the imperial examination, but in the early Ming Dynasty, this was not the case. After all, although Lao Zhu opened the imperial examination, he also abolished the imperial examination for many years. In these years, officials were selected. That is to rely on "promoting filial piety and integrity", which does not require you to study hard and study hard...

Lin Fang comes from a lower-class background, is righteous and generous, and is knowledgeable about the past and the present. She has read many books and knows the difficulties of the people. Now she is conceited and does not know how to pretend to understand. She bullies others by opening her mouth and shutting up to "rectify the law on the spot." Who do you think you are? Right to kill?

I, Lin Fang, participated in drafting the contract between the Ministry of Works and the foremen. How they work is their own business. If they cannot complete it by the time, someone will naturally bring the contract to them to settle the matter. If you supervise, go and supervise those who put food in, What does it mean to bully the people if you go to the officials who pay their wages?

What's wrong with you?

Even if you are Yan Shenggong, I will not obey you.

Being a duplicitous person, doing evil things secretly, nodding your head in agreement on the surface, but then turning around and shaking your head in opposition, what credibility is there?

Along the way, you are either giving random directions or yelling, so I won’t serve you anymore.

Why am I scolding you? You are the one scolding me.

Zheng Gang knew that Lin Fang was not very patient and liked to go straight when doing things. He couldn't stand the treacherous and shameless people. He also knew that he had suffered a lot along the way and had accumulated a lot of anger. But the problem was that if you wanted to scold Kong Ne, you should find someone to blame. It’s a corner with no one around. I don’t mind scolding Confucius from his generation, but you can’t scold him in front of me or in front of him...

Didn't you notice that Kong Ne was already numb, trembling with anger, and speechless?

Zheng Gang knew that something bad was going to happen, and before Kong Ne could get angry, he yelled at Lin Fang: "What nonsense are you talking about, and you still haven't knelt down to apologize to Duke Yan!"

Kong Ne also came to his senses now, gritted his teeth, and shouted: "Shuzi is rude!"

Lin Fang also lost her temper and shouted, "It's better to be rude than shameless! You must be self-aware! Mr. Yansheng, please remember that your duty is to supervise, not to cause trouble!"

Kong Ne shouted: "Zheng Fu, just look at it. He has humiliated me and hasn't arrested me yet. How long will it take?"

Zheng Gang shook his head helplessly.

Lin Fang even snorted coldly, rolled up her sleeves and turned around to leave, shouting to Zhang Wang and Qian Sanjin: "Do your business with peace of mind. If anyone violates the contract and interferes with you wantonly, then send someone to find Mr. Song. He I will give you justice."

Kong Ne was furious and urged Zheng Gang to arrest Lin Fang, but Zheng Gang couldn't arrest Lin Fang. Lin Fang was an official or a capital official, so it was impossible to arrest him just because of a curse word.

Besides, what if it’s deducted today? Can he still be convicted? He is now Song Li's confidant and an important member of the Ministry of Industry. To deal with his power, it requires the nod of Zheng Ci, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the Department of Three Laws to deal with it. It is not easy for the Chief Envoy's Yamen to deal with him.

Isn't it your fault that you don't know how to pretend to understand, it's just embarrassing, and you still give random orders under the guise of cherishing people's power. Even if you want to go to Yichun Court, you won't go there with an embroidered pillow.

Zheng Gang also couldn't understand the logic of Dong Na's actions. Logically speaking, he should be honest and cooperate with Xiu He, but now he seems to be a restless and unpredictable person.

Along the way, Kong Na pointed everywhere and scolded him from time to time. Most people were not so stubborn and accepted Yan Shenggong's words.

But who would have known that he would encounter a tough situation at Ma Ta Lake, and people would not show off Yan Shenggong’s face.

Kong Ne was furious and felt that he had lost face. Since Zheng Gang didn't order the arrest, he would do it himself, step forward and grab Lin Fang's clothes and take him inside. But Lin Fang was a young man after all, and he had been here for the past few months. Walking back and forth by the river, he was much stronger than Kong Ne, a helpless scholar, so he pushed Kong Ne away abruptly.

Kong Ne stood unsteadily and took a few steps back.

"careful!"

Lin Fang shouted loudly.

Zheng Gang's expression changed and he quickly stepped forward.

Kong Ne retreated to the edge of Ma Ting Lake and stopped in his tracks. Seeing Lin Fang and Zheng Gang acting like this, he couldn't help but be a little confused. He looked down and saw a crack in the ground under his feet. Immediately, his feet went soft and he leaned back. .

Plop!

"No, Duke Yansheng fell into the lake."

Zheng Gang was extremely panicked and quickly called the soap officials to rescue people. By coincidence, these soap officials did not understand the nature of water and could not save Yan Shenggong, and the water and fire sticks in their hands were not long enough.

Lin Fang also became uneasy. If Yan Shenggong was found hanging in the Horse Trampling Lake, he would probably end up being trampled by horses hundreds of times...

Just when a group of people were shouting but doing nothing, Kong Ne had already disappeared.

Zhang Wang and Qian Sanjin took off their shoes and jumped into the lake before they had time to take off their clothes.

Lin Fang looked at the lake. There were only ripples and occasional bubbles emerging, and no trace of anyone could be seen.

Time is so unbearable, every breath is like a knife cutting flesh and removing bones.

If Yan Shenggong died here, even if it was an accident, Lin Fang would not be able to escape responsibility. When the time came for him to be held accountable, he might have to be buried with Yan Shenggong. If things got serious, it might even harm his family.

Abnormal!

Extremely abnormal!

As a scholar, he used to have a graceful demeanor. Naturally, a gentleman talks but does not take action. No matter how angry he is, he will not start a fight, right?

He is Yan Shenggong, not a second-rate street gangster.

Lin Fang couldn't think more at this time and could only pray that this guy wouldn't die, otherwise there would be no room for change.

The water surface suddenly became chaotic. Zhang Wang and Qian Sanjin raised Kong Ne to the surface. Zao Li quickly stretched out a fire stick and pulled him up. Kong Ne choked on a belly of water, but fortunately he did not drown. After Zhang Wang After waiting for help, Kong Ne vomited several times before Youyou opened her eyes.

However, Kong Ne's mental state was already very bad. He didn't know whether he was frightened or exhausted. He pointed at Lin Fang and muttered speechless.

Lin Fang knew that she had done it, so she stood aside and apologized: "Mr. Yansheng, I am too reckless as a subordinate..."

Zheng Gang interrupted Lin Fang and shouted angrily: "You'd better think of how to save your family! What are you still doing? Take Yan Shenggong to the Jining government office and ask the doctor for treatment. .”

The officials got a door panel from somewhere and carried Kong Ne away.

Lin Fang was stunned on the spot, not knowing what his fate would be.

"Is he Yan Shenggong?"

A middle-aged man in his fifties stood by the lake, looking at the soap officials leaving in the distance, and couldn't help but ask.

Lin Fang nodded heavily and sighed: "Hey, blame me, I shouldn't have pushed him."

"Second Master Ran."

Zhang Wang and Qian Sanjin looked at the middle-aged man in front of them politely.

Lin Fang lost his mind to speak. Now that trouble has occurred, dismissal from office is something that can be expected. As for whether he will be imprisoned or beheaded, it depends on the court.

Sitting paralyzed by the lake, Lin Fang had the urge to jump down.

"What's this?"

Ran Er Ye lowered his head and looked at the dirty stuff Kong Ne vomited out. He took a branch from the side and pulled out a piece of gray-brown stuff in the vomit. He couldn't help but frown and asked: "This sir, Mr. Yan Shenggong's Is it common for you to be so angry, or is it just a recent incident?"

Lin Fang looked at Second Master Ran in confusion, braced herself, and said, "It happened recently. In the past, his temperament was quite peaceful, and he didn't have any irritable words or deeds. But these days, he may be too busy and has many affairs. Only then did the anger attack the heart and the temper became irritable..."

"Is anger attacking your heart?"

Ran Erye knocked the gray-brown thing on the ground with a branch and said to Lin Fang: "For the sake of helping us, let me give you a heads up. This thing is called Gentian three flowers. Although it can be cured Liver fire attacks the heart, but once the dosage is exceeded, the liver can't bear it. And here, there seems to be a lot of gentian."

When the anger is strong, it is necessary to slowly reduce the heat and cool down. If the person's head and face are covered with ice water, then the person will become seriously ill or even damage his original essence.

Too much is never enough, that's the truth.

The liver governs temperament. Once something goes wrong here, the person's temper and behavior will become irritable, surly, and even hurtful.

Lin Fang looked at Mr. Ran in surprise. She didn't know much about Chinese medicine, but looking at the confidence of the person in front of her, it didn't look like he was lying.

"If this is Gentian triflora, it shouldn't be boiled into traditional Chinese medicine. Why is it the finished product? And it doesn't smell like traditional Chinese medicine."

Lin Fang asked puzzledly.

Ran Er Ye shook his head and said: "This is what I am confused about, but there are still remaining tea leaves here, maybe they were mixed together and entered the body. This is not something that I can explain clearly."

“Tea?—tea shack?!”

Lin Fang remembered it instantly.

Along the way, people will inevitably get thirsty and take a rest, and there are many teahouses along the way, not only to entertain craftsmen, but also to entertain businessmen or officials.

During these two days, Song Ne stopped in the tea shed several times to drink tea, and he also had a habit of eating tea leaves. From this point of view, this three-flowered gentian was probably placed in tea leaves at that time.

"Someone wants to harm me?"

As soon as Lin Fang had this idea, she slapped herself and said uneasily: "Someone wants to harm Duke Yan!"
