Father can be an enemy to the country

Chapter 696: Sitting at home invites blessings and disasters to oneself

Xu Duo, Yin of Yingtian Prefecture, has finally seen what it means to sit at home while the pot comes from the sky.

It was originally a good day, and it was rare for him to be safe. He was happily planning to have lunch early so that he and Gao Fucheng could take some time to catch fish.

As a result, there was a click, and a big black pot fell from the sky, and he was directly trapped in it...

"What, Hu Tianci escaped from prison? Is it true?"

"What, he was captured by the Treasure Ship Lifting Division again? Is it true?"

"What the heck, the Office of Prosecution issued a letter, asking Ying Tianfu to mention someone? Damn it, it's none of my business?!" Xu Fuyin, who was still enjoying himself, found that he had become the biggest one.

"Guawazidi, whose idea was this?" Xu Fuyin threw his beloved fishing rod and cursed: "Why do you need me to pick someone up?"

"Because according to Ying Tianfu's strong request, starting from the eighth year of Hongwu, the treasure ship lifting department no longer has judicial power, and all suspects captured should be sent to Ying Tianfu for trial." Gao Fucheng explained with a wry smile:

"This is what I got from my predecessor."

"Why are you fighting for this thing? Isn't this a scam?!" Xu Fuyin was so angry that he scolded anyone he caught, even his own fishing friends. "You're a fool. You know how to fish all day long. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"It made its own sense at that time." Gaofu Cheng said without getting angry: "And it's useless for you to yell at me. This person has to be picked up when he should be picked up. Be careful of long nights and lots of dreams."

"Well..." Xu Fuyin understood what Gao Fucheng meant. It was better to bring the person back as soon as possible, verify his identity, and report it to the emperor! Hurry up and get rid of this pot before dark.

If we put it off until tomorrow, anything could happen overnight. By then, the yellow mud will really fall into your crotch——

It's not a problem, it's a problem.

"Oh, okay, I'd like to ask you to take a trip." Xu Fuyin handed over the errand to his deputy. "Bring more troops and ask Yang Qianhu to accompany you, so that nothing goes wrong."

"It's not a big problem. It's broad daylight and I'm not traveling far away." Gao Fucheng nodded, took Fu Yin's order and military talisman, and went out to order the troops.

Only then did Xu Fuyin feel at ease, and he quickly started to think about the second thing. Should we inform Xiang Xiang immediately?

He was promoted by Hu Weiyong single-handedly.

But this is nonsense. The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is famous for its rapid metabolism, and the rate of renewal one crop after another is faster than cutting leeks in the field. Those people who had been with Li Shanchang before had been eliminated for an unknown amount of time.

Except for the few people promoted by the prince in the past two years, which civil servant in the Ming Dynasty was not promoted by Hu Xiang?

But no matter what, he had to call Hu Weiyong a favor. Ordinarily, he should be notified immediately.

But if Hu Weiyong fell because of this incident, wouldn't he suffer the same fate?

But if Hu Xiang hadn’t fallen and he hadn’t reported it, he would have been doomed.

‘So can Hu Xiang fail this time? ’ Xu Duo weighed it secretly, and the answer was actually 50-50.

It is said that he committed such a crime of releasing an imperial prisoner privately. Once it was verified, Prime Minister Hu appointed the final son.

But Hu Xiang is the emperor's favorite, and he is the best at deflecting blame. As long as the emperor doesn't want to mess with him, he will definitely get through...

‘Will the emperor engage in nonsense? ’ Xu Duo couldn’t guess the answer. 'To want to or not to want to, that is the question...'

While he was thinking hard, Chang Sui came in and reported that Hood was here.

"Invite me quickly. Let's have tea in the front hall." Xu Duo didn't dare to trust Hu Xiang's nephew. While hurriedly welcoming him out, he muttered secretly.

‘What is he here for? Could it be that he was trying to persuade me to let Mr. Hu go free? ’

"That won't work!" Xu Duo was startled by his guess, but he couldn't help but start to find reasons, thinking about how to reject Hood without offending him.

"What's wrong with Mr. Xu?" Hu De walked into the front hall dressed in casual clothes and with a majestic appearance.

"Ah, I've seen Commander Hu. My subordinate said that I can't do anything without notifying En Xiang!" Xu Duo naturally has two skills if he can become Ying Tian Fu Yin. At least it responded very quickly.

"Is it because of my god-given brother?" Hood said seriously.

"Commander Hu already knows?" Xu Duo looked surprised.

"Yes, what's so surprising about this? A high-ranking prime minister can't just wait for reports from his subordinates." Hu De said calmly: "My uncle got the news as soon as he went to court, and he was also very shocked. Hurry up and ask Zhao Butang to send someone to the prison to check. guess what?"

"Is it possible that the person is still in prison?" Xu Fuyin followed his intention and asked.

"You guessed it right." Hu De nodded and said, "Zhao Butang replied that he is still in prison. My uncle was worried and asked me to go and see him again. I saw with my own eyes that my God-given brother is indeed still there. . Go and have a look if you don’t believe me.”

"That's it..." Xu Duo breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "I thought something big had happened, but it turned out that there was just a thief pretending to be Mr. Hu. It's really ridiculous and hateful."

"Yes, it is really hateful to destroy my uncle's name!" Hu De said with an indignation: "That's why my uncle specially ordered me to come here and explain the situation to Xu Fuyin."

"Xiang Hu is so thoughtful." Xu Duo praised, clasped his fists in the direction of Hu's house and said, "Commander Hu, please tell Xiang Hu that I will find out the case as soon as possible and clear Xiang Hu's innocence!"

"Hey..." Hood waved his hand and said: "How do you try this kind of case? Whether that person will be admitted by mistake or impersonated, he must look a lot like my god-sent brother. When the court opened, he insisted that he was Tianci, what should you do?"

"Torture, under three trees, to keep him obedient..." Xu Duo blurted out, but halfway through his words, he was choked back by Hood's terrifying eyes. "There's really no good solution."

"Right, do you want my uncle and aunt to go to court and have a blood test to tell the difference?" Hu De then said with a slightly brighter expression: "Isn't that a big joke? How can my uncle's appearance be preserved? It will not be recorded in the history books in the future. If you write it down as a joke, it will embarrass Ming Dynasty!"

"Commander Hu's words make sense," Xu Duo agreed and asked tentatively, "What do you think Commander Hu thinks?"

"I don't have any high opinions, just a little humble opinion - this kind of liar who involves the prime minister's reputation should not be allowed to appear in court!" Hood said loudly.

"That's right, that's right." Xu Duo nodded hurriedly and said, "But if you are a criminal, you have to go to court."

"Then let him not get to Yingtianfu Yamen!" Hu De said, taking out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and placing it in front of him.

"This, this..." Xu Duo's pupils shrank sharply, he did not expect such a method. This is so fucking outrageous that it opens the door to outrageousness - so outrageous.

He took a breath of air and said: "Hiss, if the court investigates, this relationship is really serious..."

"The poison was hidden by the prisoner. He committed suicide out of fear of crime. How much do you have to do with it?" Hood said, pouring out a wax-sealed pill from the porcelain bottle.

"As for where the prisoner is hidden, I don't need to say more, right? I can only blame the lax search by the people from the Prosecution Department and Longjiang Office for not finding the poison. Shuntian Mansion took over the prisoner from them , out of trust for colleagues, it is reasonable not to search carefully, right?" Hood taught him unceremoniously:

"If you can't teach it like this, Xu Fuyin should just take one for yourself and have fun."
