Chapter 1131: Hard and Soft
Su Tiancheng was waiting outside the official post, someone had already reported all the news outside the city gate, including Fan Jingwen's attitude, etc., Su Tiancheng was prepared.
After seeing Su Tiancheng, Fan Jingwen's anger finally came up, but there were many people outside the official post, and it was still inappropriate to lose his temper in broad daylight, at least insulting Sven, this is not a performance of a scholar, nor does it conform to the rules, all Fan Jingwen can do is to watch Su Tiancheng not speak, although Su Tiancheng has a smile on his face.
There are a lot of people in Xiaoshan City, the streets are bustling, among these people, a large part of them are from Hangzhou and Jiaxing and other places, and even from Huzhou, although there are a lot of people, but the order in the city is very good, Fan Wencheng and others walking on the street, can feel that if Xiaoshan City is chaotic, Fan Jingwen may really can't help but lose his temper.
After entering the inn, everything inside was arranged, all in accordance with the rules of the imperial court, Fan Jingwen, Wu Weiye and Yan Zizhang stayed in a single room, giving everyone the feeling that it was no different from before.
In the room, there were only four people left: Su Tiancheng, Fan Jingwen, Wu Weiye and Yan Zizhang, of course, Su Tiancheng's personal Wu Rong and other four guards were guarding outside the room, as long as there was the slightest movement in the room, they were all going to rush in, originally Wu Rong insisted on being in the house, but Su Tiancheng disagreed.
At this time, Fan Jingwen was a little calm.
"Su Tiancheng, no, His Royal Highness King De, shouldn't the old man congratulate you?"
"Congratulations, there is no need, I am already a prisoner of the imperial court, Lord Fan, Lord Wu and Lord Yan have come to Zhejiang, and they have an important mission, do you want to scold me, just say what you want. I have been ready for a long time, but if I want to persuade me to continue to join the court and continue to be loyal to the emperor, there is no need for that, don't say that I won't be willing, just the people who follow me. I wouldn't agree to such a stupid move. ”
Fan Jingwen's face turned pale with anger, and he couldn't say a lot of things that he had thought about for a while.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Su Tiancheng laughed again.
"Don't worry, Lord Fan, say slowly, there is an opportunity, I will also gather many officers in the Jiangning Battalion to listen to Lord Fan's reprimand."
Fan Jingwen was so angry that his beard trembled slightly.
"Su Tiancheng, the old man came to Zhejiang. I want to scold you, I hate you as a scholar, I don't know how to be polite, righteous and honest, I actually rebelled and threw it into the face of our scholars, when the old man was in Nanzhili, he was very optimistic about you, and I didn't expect you to live up to the emperor's trust. Failed the trust of the imperial court, what you did. and shall be spurned by all......"
Fan Jingwen's words were very ugly, and ordinary people couldn't bear it at all, but Su Tiancheng always seemed very calm, and he still had a smile on his face, and this humble attitude made Fan Jingwen even more angry. thinks that this is Su Tiancheng's indifferent practice, and it is disrespectful to him.
"Okay, the old man has said so much, it seems that you can't get oil and salt, and the old man didn't think that he could or go back. If you have the ability, you will kill the old man......"
For a full quarter of an hour, Fan Jingwen's roar echoed in the room.
Fan Jingwen finally finished speaking.
Su Tiancheng was still the same, looking at Wu Weiye and Yan Zizhang, thinking to see if the two had anything to add.
Wu Weiye and Yan Zizhang shook their heads, indicating that there was nothing to say.
Su Tiancheng looked at Fan Jingwen and finally spoke.
"Lord Fan said so much, it is indeed very hard, what should be said has been said, the temper of the law has also been released, there should be nothing to do next, the requirements of the holy decree have also been done, I will not accompany it, what Lord Fan said, I have nothing to justify, and I don't want to spend useless energy in this regard, do not hide it from you, tomorrow we will enter Jiaxing Mansion, to eradicate the army led by Liu Zeqing, these days, there are many people who have defected to Shaoxing, there are many people, the encounter is very tragic, The army led by Liu Zeqing, its behavior is no different from that of beasts, such a scum, if I don't completely clean it up, my heart will be uncomfortable. ”
"Lord Fan's hard bones, I admire it very much, the current behavior of the adults, to say that the lighter is to seek fish, or to go in the opposite direction, to say the heavier, is inflexible, pedantic, and it is precisely because of such measures of the adults that the Ming Dynasty is declining, many scholars, always take the revitalization of the world as their own responsibility, but can not distinguish between right and wrong, can not seek a real way of development, after mastering the power, but repeatedly maintain those rotten things, and even keen on party struggle, Attaches too much importance to their own power, cares too much about their own image, and attaches too much importance to their own family, once the dynasty is facing collapse, they stand up and say that it is all caused by corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and they are all miserly villains who control the government and so on, it seems that they have no responsibility, they always stand on the height of morality, these years, such a situation, there are still fewer in the court, those people of insight don't understand. ”
"I don't want to say the truth, I don't want to say, Lord Wu is the temple test flower, I am the temple test list, there are too many of those avenues of science, not to mention Lord Fan, what I value is the actual situation, how to let the people live a good life, I used to be an official in Jiangning County, Henan Province, Shaanxi Province and Liaodong, no matter where I go, my first concern is the people's livelihood, is whether the people can eat and clothe, I know very well that many adults in the court always say that the people's livelihood comes first, and they must seek well-being for the people. But I always didn't see actual action, what I saw was the people struggling at the bottom, lacking food and clothing, desperate, some waiting for death, and some rebelling in anger. ”
"The Jiangning battalion exterminated the Liukou, but I have always adhered to a point of view, to investigate the leader of the Liukou, the rest of the past is not to blame, but think about it on the other hand, for what kind of Liukou can develop to such a large scale, I once saw with my own eyes the matter of killing the good and risking the merits, the heads of the ordinary people, became the spoils of the government to invite merit and reward, when facing the Liukou, they did not dare to do anything, in the face of the Houjin Tartar, they only hated their father and mother for giving birth to two legs, desperately fleeing, but in the face of the kind and innocent people, How many times will they be able to raise butcher knives and so on. ”
"Maybe Lord Fan is going to say, what does this have to do with the emperor, the emperor is also diligent, and he is also thrifty, and he can't wait for all the people to live a good life, and the emperor also punishes corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and he also does not allow the Ming soldiers to mess around, I don't deny this understanding, but Lord Fan should not forget, the emperor is in danger of the world, if he can't even find out these things, he will lock himself in the palace, thinking that the world is peaceful, wouldn't he be the king of the country."
"I never thought about rebellion before, but unfortunately now I have to do it, if I don't do this, the next one to be liquidated is me, say some big things that Lord Fan doesn't like to hear, I care very much about my own life, first, I know that I am not a person, if I fall, I am afraid that too many people will fall, and secondly, I understand more that in the court, no one really cares about the interests of the people, cares about the life and death of the people, in their opinion, their own interests are put first, and no one asks about the cold window for ten years, Becoming famous in one fell swoop and being able to grasp the authority will not add glory to the family, and as for the interests of the people, it is not impossible to fend for themselves. ”
"I am very sad that the good situation that was once created in Jiangning County has been lost, and the people of Henan Province used to be so rich, what is it like now, as for Shaanxi, Lord Zhu Youxiang has adhered to my previous practice, and the situation is still good, but now it has also changed, Zhang Fengyi went to Shaanxi to serve as governor, and the opportunity for some people has come, and what was abolished before will be restored again, because the policies implemented in Shaanxi are all said by someone in my Su and said by the thief, how can I believe it."
"If you want to talk about the relationship with the emperor, Lord Fan, it's not me who speaks big, I know the emperor very well, and I also know that the emperor is not a faint monarch, but after I came into contact with the emperor for the first time, I realized that the emperor is not a holy monarch, to put it bluntly, to maintain the chaos of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor does not have such ability."
"As the emperor of my Ming Dynasty, there is no great talent to govern the country, but it doesn't matter, after all, there are so many heroes in the world, make good use of these talents, my Ming Dynasty can also thrive, but unfortunately the emperor can't do it, or this is the emperor's biggest flaw, the family is poor and thinks of a good wife, the country is chaotic and thinks of good generals, the emperor's growth environment is different, he almost suspects everyone, suspects that all the meritorious people threaten his status, this is the most fatal thing, but unfortunately the emperor's flaw is not good."
"Lord Fan, what I said today is by no means a matter of words, it will not take long, all this can be fulfilled, and I will clearly inform the emperor that my rebellion will not take his life, let alone kill the descendants of the royal family."
"As for your lords, don't leave in a hurry for the time being, just follow the army, and let your lordships see with your own eyes, what is the truth, what is cruel, look at what the officials and armies in various parts of my Ming Dynasty think, what they do, and whether the people can live a good life."
"I respect Lord Fan very much, Lord Wu and Lord Yan are my best friends, so I just said so much today, I hope that these words I said, you can think about it seriously, you have seen a lot along the way, it is a pity that you don't know the Dao, because you are under the emperor's order, and the local officials don't know how much the Dao has concealed, they just don't want you to see it, those are the situations that you can't see, it's the real situation, and in two days, you can see it."
