Kangpingfang, Wu Mansion.
In the study room, Wu Yong's forehead veins were prominent.
"who!"
Wu Yong swept the teacup on the desk onto the wall: "Who framed me, who exactly is it?"
Butler Wu De hesitated for a moment and said softly: "Sir, is it possible that Han You'er set up to frame you?"
"impossible!"
Wu Yong's face was full of contempt: "If that kid really had such a plan, how could the Han family be unable to move in Beijing, how could he become a low-income waiter in the eyes of the people, and how could his father, the Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture, hate him."
"Master, please don't forget that the Liu family was all imprisoned in Jingzhao Mansion Prison."
"What does this have to do with that kid? It was the idiot Liu Wenguan who provoked Zhou Zhenghuai."
Wu Yong turned around and asked with a sneer: "Have you ever heard that the Zhou and Han families have a relationship?"
"I have inquired about it, and not only have they not moved around, but the two families are also at odds. Years ago, my master, you were sent as an envoy to the border army. Zhou Shangshu and Han Bairen criticized each other in the court. In addition, before His Majesty ascended the throne, Han Bairen and his troops seized the throne. Palace, and even beat Zhou Shangshu in front of many ministers of the previous dynasty."
"That's it."
Wu Yong also heard about this and shook his head and said: "Zhou Zhenghuai will definitely not stand up for the Han family. The fact that idiot Liu Wenguan is in jail has nothing to do with the Han family and his son. The Han family and his son are not that capable."
After a pause, Wu Yong continued his analysis: "That kid is just a flatterer. He has won the favor of His Highness King You. How could he have such a motive? The emperor ordered the tax inspection. Now the accounts have been burned completely. I At most, the official is just under suspicion, but that kid is going to be punished by the emperor and be reduced to a serious crime. He is crazy. He is trying to get involved with the emperor's heavy responsibility just to make people doubt me."
Wu De thought thoughtfully and found that the possibility was indeed low. This was a killing of one thousand enemies and a loss of eighteen thousand, and the gain was not worth the loss.
If the account book is gone, the checking of the accounts will be in vain. Jingzhao Mansion did give a voucher when collecting taxes, but this voucher is just a small wooden sign. It is not difficult to forge, as long as it matches the figures on the account.
Now that all the account books have been burned, it means that the rest of the month has been in vain. The emperor's sentence and reduced crime are euphemisms. Jingzhao Mansion is not doing well, and it is not impossible for Han Bairen to be stripped of his official robe.
"Then I will have to prove my innocence in court tomorrow."
"Prove yourself innocent, ha."
Wu Yong looked helpless: "How can I prove my innocence and go out to tell the emperor that the accounts were not burned by me?"
"Then just wait and see what happens. If you are upright, you won't be afraid of slanting shadows."
"People's opinions are worth their weight in gold, but if ignored, falsehoods will become true. The public is so suspicious, the scholars are so suspicious, the court is so suspicious, even your majesty will be suspicious of me. As time goes by, the superiors, prime ministers, and your majesty will become suspicious. Then they will think that I, Wu Yong and Wu Shaoqing, are a bold person, so how can they reuse me again?"
"What should we do?"
Wu Yong didn't say anything. This was what was bothering him.
"check!"
Wu Yong gritted his teeth and said: "Go to Fan Guan quickly and ask those Fan merchants. Since the person who died is a Fan person, there will definitely be clues left behind."
Wu De hesitated for a moment and said cautiously: "I just sent someone to inquire, and I also met the little Han You."
"Then what?"
"Then...then he said something strange."
"Say it, tell it like it is!"
"The kid's original words are that it has nothing to do with the young minister of Honglu Temple putting on this pretense. He just checked and found out that something happened. The person who is most worried is the murderer besides the victim. He also said that you... said that you wanted to know the case at any time. and progress well in destroying the evidence.”
Wu Yong almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, and his eyes were red with anger.
After cursing for a long time, the bird man said with lingering anger: "That's all, that's all. When I go to court tomorrow, I will go out to explain to His Majesty that I heard that there are speculations in the public that this matter was secretly orchestrated by me. No matter what, , explain one or two, although the effect is very small, it can be regarded as showing one's feelings."
Wu De sighed. Although it was useless, it was the only thing he could do until he found the real person behind the scenes.
…………
Disasters are imminent, and responsibilities are increasing day by day. An Debao rebukes and expels more than 300 people in the house, but the monarch chooses them among them.
It is said that astronomical phenomena occurred during the reign of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty. Confucianism has always been in power. According to them, God has issued a warning to the court and those in power, and someone has to take the blame.
A group of officials from the Prime Minister's Office said that they should ask Prime Minister Zhai Fang to come in and take the blame, and let him go directly to the SPA.
Everyone in the world thinks that the prime minister is incompetent and must take the blame.
But is this really the case? No, it's not. Zhai Fangjin was wronged, very wronged.
But there are very few people who know that he was wronged. These people are the people who wronged him.
Only the person who framed you and wronged you knows how wronged you are.
In Beijing, there are indeed people who know that Wu Yong was wronged, that is, the instigator, Han You, the eldest young master of the Han family.
But Han You didn't feel that Wu Yong was wronged, and Young Master Han didn't feel relieved either. Instead, he was filled with regret and unwillingness.
If you want to protect the Han Mansion and seek justice for many wronged souls and innocent people, you can only "unjustly accuse" Wu Yong in this way.
The emperor said that court officials cannot be touched.
The rules in the "circle" are also mocking, mocking a white body, how dare anyone dare to touch a fourth-grade young minister?
That's why Han You framed Wu Yong.
As he often says, the process is not important, the result is important.
Compared with procedural justice and consequential justice, he believes that consequential justice is more important.
If procedural justice cannot ensure justice in results, then procedural justice is a joke.
Not to mention the procedures and results, if the Zhou Dynasty, if Beijing, if there was justice at the feet of the emperor, Wu Yong, Liu Wenguan and others would not be alive now!
It was late at night, and Han You was sitting in front of the desk in his bedroom, holding a pen and not writing a single word for a long time.
"Master, do you want me to write for you?"
Zhongsun Wushuang gently squeezed Han You's shoulder: "You tell me, I'll write it in my body."
"Hold it, I'll have to dictate it when I enter the palace tomorrow. I'm not good at writing this."
Zhongsun Wushuang sighed faintly: "Tomorrow, I will be waiting for you outside the palace. If you don't come out, I... I will definitely give birth to a son and a half for the Han family."
After finishing speaking, Zhongsun Wushuang raised his arms and untied his dress.
Han You was stunned for a moment: "Why do you say it's like I'm going to die?"
The half-dressed Zhongsun Wushuang hugged Han You's neck and held back his tears: "I know this, and I know that you will enter the palace tomorrow to plead guilty and escape death."
"Ah?" Han You didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I went to ask for credit, how could I still ask for sin?"
"Don't comfort me. What I know is that the accounts have been burned. Your Majesty will definitely punish you. Don't pity me tonight. I want to leave you an heir. She is a member of the Han family." , if you die, you will be a ghost of the Han family, and you will never marry."
Han You was silent for a long while, then turned his head to look at Zhongsun Wushuang. Looking at Zhongsun Wushuang's brows trying to hide his sadness, his heart felt warm and painful.
The only two brothers who knew that Han You framed Wu Yong were his father and Wang Shan and Wang Hai. Not to mention Zhongsun Wushuang, not even the young prince Zhou Yan knew about it.
"No frost."
Han You let out a long sigh and saw Zhongsun Wushuang looking like he was marrying a chicken, a chicken, a dog, and a dog. He couldn't bear the other party to worry about him anymore, so he had to speak softly and gently.
"Well, you are right. I may not be able to come back alive tomorrow. In that case, come on. Don't let me leave any regrets before I die. Hurry, hurry, hurry."
