Chapter 552: Feng Shun rebels
Han Xiong looked like a prisoner who was about to be arrested and escorted, or rather, he was a prisoner, and walked from the direction of Pingmen along the outer city road to the west to look at Jianglou. However, his front and back are not fast catches, but the officers and soldiers under the Qin cha standard.
Although Master Han was arrested, he was not too worried about what happened to him, in his opinion, Lord Qincha's mobilization of a large number of officers and soldiers to arrest him was a manifestation of anger and anger before leaving.
If this is a normal number of paths, if Lord Qincha has no scruples, then it can be done a long time ago, why wait until today?
He Han Xiong is not a flat-headed commoner, he is a wealthy gentleman who owns thousands of acres of land and hundreds of tenants, and his family has just been the governor of Liangguang; It also has a lot of friends in Suzhou and has great influence.
To put it bluntly, if a person like him could be casually arrested and dealt with by the government, the world would have been in chaos a long time ago.
Even when Wang Jing, the eunuch of the Naqin Mission, was rampant in Suzhou, he mainly extorted money and treasures, and rarely directly arrested the gentry himself. Fang Yingwu, a person who still has to mix in the circle of Wenchen, cannot be more murderous than a eunuch.
Therefore, Han Xiong didn't have much worry about his situation, and regarded it as Lord Qincha who was just going to get angry, but he didn't know how to vent his anger. Maybe a beating? Maybe a few words of verbal humiliation?
was taken into the Wangjiang Tower and went up to the third floor, and a circle of people came into view, and Han Xiong was very stunned. He didn't understand for a moment, why were so many local celebrities here? Later, it suddenly dawned that Fang Qincha was leaving today, this should be a send-off, right?
During the banquet, everyone suddenly saw someone being pushed in by the five flowers, and they were also surprised, and subconsciously stopped chatting.
When everyone identified this person as Han Xiong, Master Han. The hall was silent for a moment, and their eyes looked at Fang Qincha again. I can't help but think of the "thank you for your support" that I said repeatedly. Could it be that this is the point?
Fang Yingwu and Han Xiong met for the first time, but both of them quickly recognized each other. Han Xiong knew that the young man who sat in the chief must be Fang Qincha. And Fang Yingwu also knew that the person who was tied up at this time must be Han Xiong.
Fang Yingwu drank slowly, laughing and laughing with the left and right easily, as if he didn't take Han Xiong to heart at all, and let him stand there at the door.
After a while, Han Xiong felt very embarrassed to stand here. However, seeing that there were more than a dozen local celebrities in the hall, the key was that they would naturally speak for themselves, so they became bold.
He took the initiative to speak: "I don't know why Lord Fang sent officials and soldiers to arrest him and bring him here?" ”
Fang Yingwu put down the wine cup. chuckled a few times and said: "Previously, the official was unwilling to be entangled with rumors and wanted to avoid other places, but the gentlemen here strongly advised the official not to lose a big one because of a small loss or abolish the public for personal reasons, and the official was taught a lot.
Therefore, with the strong support of all the kings, the official decided not to look ahead and backward, not to take care of himself for the sake of official affairs, and to face the problem when it is time to face the problem!
You spread rumors and made trouble, trying to get the official to throw a rat trap, and you did almost succeed. Under the command of the kings. But this official woke up quite early, and he didn't want and couldn't let a shameless rat like you succeed with his false name! ”
Han Xiong sneered a few times, and then asked, "Dare to ask, what rumors do you think the adults have created below?" ”
Fang Yingwu did not answer. The content of the rumors is not good, Han Xiong is just a trick before his death struggle, and there is no need to be fooled. Does he still want to say in front of the public that he is "obsessed with women and revenge on the squire"?
"Why do you dare to say that you are spreading rumors without evidence or evidence?" Han Xiong seemed to have given in verbally when he saw Fang Yingwu. hurriedly shouted.
After that, he arched his hand to the people in the banquet again, and asked for help: "Please also ask the gentlemen to comment." Lord Fang's move today is too wanton and arrogant, and I ask you to still be innocent! ”
As soon as he came in, he saw that there were locals. I had this set of rhetoric in mind.
Fang Yingwu laughed, "Han Xiong, don't play this kind of childish trick. All the gentlemen here, who dares to stand up and guarantee that the rumors were not spread by Han Xiong? ”
Everyone looked at each other a few times, and after thinking about it carefully, no one came forward to distinguish and guarantee Han Xiong, who knows what traps and risks are contained in Lu Dao? Everyone knows that the rumors of Lu Dao were made by Han Xiong, and he will distinguish them for him, what if he is cheated after the most lung?
And standing up at this time is tantamount to openly slapping the face of the chincha, from the current point of view, this chincha means is old and spicy, don't provoke if you can.
What's more, Lord Qincha's luggage is still on the dock boat, and if he is unhappy and says that he will leave, and then recruit the eunuchs, then there will be no place to cry.
Han Xiong waited and waited, but no one stood up to speak for him, which made Master Han feel cold and cold, how could this be the case? For the first time, he felt that things might not be within his control at all.
After Fang Yingwu looked around, he stared at Han Xiong again, "Look, there are a total of fifteen people here, but none of them dare to say that the rumors have nothing to do with you!"
The eyes of the masses are bright, all the gentlemen are local people, and even they believe that you are spreading rumors, what else is there to justify?
Therefore, it is not the official who has determined that you are a rumor-monger, but the monarchs here have determined your crime, so don't try to muddy the waters! ”
What is this unconventional path? Han Xiong was stunned, and everyone was silent, or they didn't know how to react.
Fang Yingwu said to himself: "Since all the monarchs think that Han Xiong is guilty, then the official should also follow the poll to collect evidence."
He summoned Wang Ying over, "Han Xiong can't do everything himself, there are always people who run errands for him." Send a message to the Yamen of the prefecture and county, go to the Han family to arrest a group of people for interrogation, and always interrogate the evidence from the mouths of insiders, so that it is good to give an explanation to the gentlemen here! ”
Although he has followed Fang Yingwu for many years, Wang Ying still feels that he has to admire, some time ago Fang Yingwu said that he wanted to "be obedient and rebel", and he was still confused. But today's situation, isn't it just obedience and rebellion?
Han Xiong immediately panicked, he didn't have much confidence in his subordinates. And he suddenly understood a truth, Fang Qin wanted to clean him up, what he lacked was not ability and determination, but name! Now it has a name for some reason!
If officials arrest the gentry at will, it is tyrannical and will cause discontent and resistance among the locals; If the officials openly clean up the gentry because of women, the impact will be even worse, and the big trouble will definitely affect the future.
But what if this gentleman spread rumors first, and was jointly "accused" by local celebrities later? Officials only need to push the boat down the river, anyway, everything is backed by "public opinion", even if the Han family is ruined, the king law cannot be blamed.
Thinking of this, Han Xiong broke out in a cold sweat, and his entire back was wet. Suddenly remembered another incident, could it be that Fang Yingwu deliberately lured himself to spread rumors at the beginning? From the moment he seemed to have the upper hand in public opinion, he fell into Fang Yingwu's calculations? (To be continued......)
