Fantastic scenery
Chapter 40
When I went out early in the morning, I saw Phalaenopsis waiting at the door of Zhong Xianju with a guard. She was carrying a small mahogany wooden box with a flying dragon engraved on it. The workmanship was exquisite.
When Qi Naozi saw Phalaenopsis, his face was full of joy, and he hurriedly stepped forward to take the wooden box, asking for warmth, Phalaenopsis was so teased that he blushed.
Fang Shu stepped forward and asked, "Why did Miss Die Lan come to Han Mansion?"
Phalaenopsis just remembered the business, "Miss said that Mr. Fang should also send some gifts when he is moving. She has been busy with the master's [-]th birthday recently. She also knows that Mr. Fang has been very busy recently, so she also invites Mr. Fang to attend our master's fifth birthday tonight." Ten birthdays."
"Okay, thank you miss, I'll come tonight." Fang Shu glanced at the wooden box in Qi Naozi's arms again, frowning casually, "Please tell Miss Die Lan to tell your miss, thank you for her gift."
Qi Naozi was the happiest and hurriedly said, "I'll come to you at night."
This day, Fang Shu brought Wen Xuanqing to a dyeing workshop in the outer city of the capital, dug three feet into the ground, took out several carts of gold, silver and jewels, and handed them over to the treasury. Fang Shu wrote a letter to the emperor, saying that it was interrogated by Huo Tailing , There is no credit for reading between the lines.
Wen Xuanqing took the initiative to act as Fang Shu's personal guard for fear of being assassinated due to the investigation of the Bailianhongfeng case.
Originally, Fang Shu wanted to refuse, but seeing that Wen Xuanqing was very worried about Huo Tailing and understood his desire to contribute, he compromised.
The two-day teaching was also delayed, and Fang Shu didn't have the heart to do it.
Wen Xuanqing followed Fang Shu, and it was getting dark now. On the way back to Zhong Xianju, "The Hongfeng sect has always been very secretive. No one has seen them, or they are all dead. A few years ago, the emperor also I was very angry with them, and vigorously investigated and suppressed them. At that time, I made the senior brother responsible. Then it disappeared quietly, as if disappearing out of thin air, and gradually no one pursued it. Today, it was brought up again."
Fang Shu shook his head, "It's not that they disappeared out of thin air, it's because some forces integrated them into the officialdom. Now they are all ghosts who are criticizing the official uniforms."
Now I feel a little nostalgic for fighting against the Japanese. At that time, I was not so tired. I only wanted to kill the enemy and defend the country, and there were not so many intrigues.
Fang Shu changed into a regular green shirt, which was elegant and steady. He carried the gift prepared by Qi Naozi. He opened it and saw that it was a golden Guanyin statue.
"Where did you get it here?! And your fancy clothes?"
Qi Naozi was dressed in light yellow hanging armor, lined with a navy blue inner gusset, and dark red upper shoes with gold rims on a white bottom. He looked like a mosquito.
For Fang Shu, this is really impossible to give away.
"I'm looking for Boss Bao to...borrow it.", Qi Naozi changed his words, "In your name...".
"Didn't you be asked to go to Guixiang Xiuke to make calligraphy and paintings?"
"Not everyone likes paper, paper and ink. Mr. Zheng is a businessman, and he also believes in Buddhism. If men give Guanyin and women give Buddha, it's not a good time to have a golden Guanyin."
At this time, it was too late to change the gift, so Fang Shu could only let him wrap it up and go out.
"I'll wait for you outside the mansion." After Wen Xuanqing finished speaking, she was about to turn around and go to the opposite teahouse.
Fang Shu grabbed his sleeve, "Let's go together, you are my follower now."
There was an endless stream of guests coming to the gate of Zheng's mansion, Zheng Wanhan went out to welcome Fang Shu in person before Fang Shu stepped into the gate of the mansion.
Today Zheng Wanhan is well-dressed, with black temples that match crow-tailed temples, emerald crescent moon eyebrows, fragrant cherry mouth, straight and long Qiongyao nose, thick pink and red cheeks, well-positioned A pretty lady.
"I was wondering if Fuyan might be too busy, so I forgot." Zheng Wanhan asked someone to accept the gift, and then stretched out his hand across the crowd and led Fang Shu towards the inner courtyard.
"What you promised will never be forgotten."
Qi Naozi didn't find Phalaenopsis on the left or right, so he lowered his head and said to Wen Xuanqing: "This is a dog smelling meat and bones - looking for the smell!"
This attracted a lot of people's attention, Fang Shuru broke away from Zheng Wanhan's hand with his back on his back, "Miss Zheng, actually I have something important to discuss with you today."
Zheng Wanhan fluttered her long eyelashes, and asked: "What's the matter? Fuyan is so serious."
"There are a lot of people here, let's find a quiet place to talk."
Zheng Wanhan brought them to the gazebo in the backyard, and said with a smile: "Fuyan, let's talk."
Wen Xuanqing and Qi Naozi stood behind Fang Shu, Fang Shu asked: "Where is Miss Die Lan?"
"Phalaenopsis went to help the backyard, I'll call her."
Fang Shu pressed her hand, "It's okay, you can just tell the story on your behalf. I am a stubborn servant, and I have a crush on Miss Die Lan. If both parties are interested, I will find a matchmaker to settle the matter."
Zheng Wanhan laughed softly, "My girl has a very serious heart recently, I will ask when I have time, and I will reply to you within two days, Phalaenopsis and I love sisters, so there will be a lot of gifts!"
Fang Shu: "It's natural, if you have any requirements, try to meet them."
Zheng Wanhan blushed and rubbed his fingers, "Fuyan is too old to talk about marriage...there is no wife or concubine at home, don't you think about yourself?"
"Too busy, haven't thought about this yet."
Zheng Wanhan brushed her broken hair behind her ears, lowered her head, blushed, and was even more crimson in the night.
"Actually, it's not troublesome. It's just a word from Lao Fuyan. The dowry is all about scaring people."
Qi Liang could hear what she meant, how could Fang Shu not understand?Now that the window paper was torn, Fang Shu didn't want to make a detour.
"I really can't feel sorry for Qiao Xian'e in my humble house."
Fang Shu just smiled wryly, "It's a great blessing for someone as smart as Miss Zheng to have a friend."
How could Zheng Wanhan fail to hear the intention of refusal, he just kept his face and said: "Fuyan's attitude is so resolute, could it be that he despises me for being too ugly?"
Fang Shu shook his head, "How can it be? Miss Zheng is very kind and heart-warming, I'm not good enough for a girl."
"So you have a sweetheart?"
Fang Shu was stunned, Zheng Wanhan smiled, "Looks like I hit the spot, what kind of god is that, even Fu Yan couldn't wish for it, I'm really jealous..."
Zheng Wanhan never hides her own thoughts and feelings. She is so sassy and really likes Fang Shu, but it is just a good impression.
Fang Shu: "What kind of fairy is it? It's just that I met him earlier... If I didn't meet him sooner... maybe it wouldn't be him."
"It doesn't sound like mutual affection, what should I do? I'm a little happy in my heart." Zheng Wanhan regained his energy.
"Wan Han! I searched everywhere for you, but I couldn't find you!" A woman in plain gauze ran into the inner courtyard panting.
She ran closer and found these three men, one of whom she was familiar with, "Master Fang? I thought I was wrong! Is it you?"
Fang Shu met her once. She was the daughter of Wu Han in the criminal department—Wu Jinchuan, and her father often heard her mention—what about our Jin Chuaner, we really regard her as a favorite.
"I've met Miss Wu, so I won't interrupt your conversation. I've said enough about what I should say. Let's go to the front yard first." Fang Shu got up and bowed before leaving.
However, Wu Jinchuan was attracted by the tall and handsome Wen Xuanqing, "This is the Commander of Jinyiwei—Master Wen?" After saying that, his face was flushed and charming.
Wen Xuanqing frowned, "You recognize me? You won't offend the girl?"
She shook her head hastily, "No... I just saw Mr. Wen's heroic appearance from afar."
"Oh... as long as you haven't offended the girl."
After leaving the inner courtyard, Qi Naozi laughed happily, "Master Wen, did you see that Miss Wu's face turned a little pale just now. You are really good, she is showing her favor to you!"
Wen Xuanqing frowned, and his expression changed, "How can you show me? Bribing is a big taboo!"
Qi Naozi pursed his lips and said to Fang Shu, "I didn't believe it when I heard that Mr. Wen hadn't opened the buds before, but it seems to be true."
Just finished saying this joke, he was attracted by the commotion in the compound. I saw Zhu Hong lining up with tasseled guns at the gate, and Zheng Guotai shouted. Cute golden eggplant sachet, foundation soap boots.
Strutting forward, many officials in the crowd vassalized him and greeted him one after another. It is false to come to celebrate the birthday of the birthday star, but it is true to come to gain power and gain power.
Zheng Guochang was full of energy, passed through the crowd, and his servants took several valuable gifts brought by Zheng Guotai, including: two divine jade flat peaches, several drunken purple gold cups, a pile of emerald jade and golden green grapes .
"It's really low-key! This Zheng Guotai relied on his sister's favor to be promoted to the Zuo Dudu, and also won the Zuo Dudu's mansion. It seems that this man has not lost his fat, and you Jin Yiwei don't check him well!"
Qi Naozi was so sour that he couldn't choose what to say.
Wen Xuanqing was also very angry at what he said, "This is a big fish! Move as soon as you say? And his Zheng family is deeply favored by the emperor. The emperor didn't say anything. How can it be Jin Yiwei's turn to speak?!"
"Keep your voice down..."
Everyone was invited into the hall, the Jinping was lined up, and the seats were laid out. Zheng Guotai and some second and third-rank officials became the chief, and Fang Shu joined the audience. If there are waves, delicacies are like piles of mountains, food and cooking are exotic, and fruits are fresh when presented.
Fang Shu’s attention was only on the chief——to Zheng Guotai, who was serving the woman’s legs and twisting her flesh, saw him being a little dazed by the crowd, and he didn’t know where he was. The land was contracted, where the manor was changed, where the hotel was built, and they blew nonsense to the side regardless of the truth.
Holding the silver cup in his hand, Fang Shu ignored Qi Naozi's eating and drinking, Wen Xuanqing's sitting upright, and walked straight to the chief.
Seeing him coming, Zheng Wanhan hurriedly stepped forward to introduce him, "Father, Uncle, this is the Master Fang Fuyan I often mention!"
Fang Shu acted humbly, "I have met my uncle. Today is my uncle's [-]th birthday. It is a great honor to be invited here! My nephew will serve this glass of wine first as a respect."
After all, drink it up.
Zheng Guochang greeted him with a smile, pointed to the vacant seat beside Zheng Guotai and Zheng Guochang, and said: "Nephew, sit down quickly, I often hear my daughter mention it, she really looks extraordinary when she saw her today!"
Fang Shu took his seat generously, and said to Zheng Guotai, who was looking at him coldly, "I have seen Mr. Zuo Dudu!"
"Just say that...that adult who beat my nephew?!"
Fang Shu was also embarrassed when he said it, "The third prince is a little nervous, and I am also young at heart. I was a little confused for a while, so I got anxious. If I haven't come yet, I am in a hurry to apologize."
Zheng Guochang made a rescue from the sidelines, "Master Fang is very courageous! It is difficult for ordinary people to match, I think this is a good thing!"
He wanted to boast more, but was stared silently by Zheng Guotai.
Fang Shu laughed, "It's the fault of the lower officials who made the governor angry, and the lower officials punished themselves with three cups in order to apologize."
These three glasses of wine were drunk cleanly and boldly. Zheng Guotai's expression was a little loose, "Master, you have a lot of house inspectors, why don't you drink all the spirits in the white pot on the table?"
Fang Shu felt a little apprehensive as the three white pots on the table turned inside out, fearing that he would have missed the opportunity if he went there first.
Zheng Wanhan hurriedly said: "Uncle! Don't deliberately embarrass Fuyan, I will blame you!", half joking, half serious.
Zheng Guotai regarded this niece as his own, and loved her since she was a child. The demonstration of this little padded jacket was really powerful. Zheng Guotai only held his forehead while he was drunk, and did not speak.
Fang Shu smiled, "It's okay, I can make everyone happy today, not to mention these three pots, even ten pots are no problem."
In a short time, Fang Shu had finished drinking a bottle. At this moment, he felt dizzy and his head was swollen. After the second pot, his face was already blushing. In order to keep clear, he touched the dagger at his waist with his left hand. Because it is convenient to carry, it is used for defense.
He lifted up his trouser legs under the table again, piercing them straight into his calf, sweating coldly for a moment.
"Master Fang, you don't need to force yourself. If you just say something, I won't care about anything. I'm not a person who can't tolerate mistakes."
After the two jugs came down, the others were a little terrified and speechless, this is a wine from the West, it doesn't sting the throat but it is powerful.
Even if Fang Shu didn't want to get close to Zheng Guotai, he wouldn't listen to this sentence.
"Whatever it is, what I say counts." Fang Shu poured himself another pot.
Seeing the situation, Zheng Wanhan wanted to step forward to help Fang Shu, but Fang Shu stopped him, "I have nothing to do, it's rare that I can talk to Mr. Zheng, please don't join the fight."
Fang Shu was really dizzy, he held the handle with his left hand, gritted his teeth and twirled it around, his underwear was soaked with sweat.
Zheng Guotai laughed loudly, "Master Fang is really different from ordinary scholars...it's really very different!" He hooked Fang Shu's shoulder, "As a senior, I would like to advise you, don't stand up for the son of Duren!"
Fang Shu nodded and said yes, "It's too short for an official to be an official! I don't know the depth, so I'd like to ask the governor to give me some pointers."
"It's easy to say, I think you are an elf with intelligence, and you have a great friendship with Wan Han, so I will definitely support you a lot in the future!"
The two exchanged glasses again, Zheng Guotai was completely confused, not only did not listen to his entourage's persuasion, but even slapped his entourage a few times, "What a spoiler!"
"Don't get yourself down because of petty anger, come, Mr. Zheng, have a few more drinks!" Fang Shuyou pulled him into the sea and said some nice words to him. He is also an ordinary man and a common son, and he also loves to climb dragons and phoenixes.
Yuan Zhao also came over to toast, and asked: "Master Fang, isn't he working on the Hongfeng case recently? Come here for a drink if you have time?"
"It's a rare opportunity to come to Uncle Zheng's birthday and have a heart-to-heart chat with Mr. Zheng..." Fang Shu held his head, "Hey...the red seal sect has disappeared from head to toe, it's really embarrassing for me!", Fang Shu Turning to ask Zheng Guotai: "Master Zheng has been an official for many years, so he must know something about it."
Zheng Guotai's eyes were a little erratic, "Didn't the Red Feudal Sect rely on me for food?!" Zheng Guotai's son, Zheng Chengen, hurriedly stepped forward to stop his father.
"Father! You're drunk!!", helplessly, he had been poured a lot by Yuan Zhao just now, and the father and son were blindfolded.
"Go away!" Zheng Guotai pushed, and his son fell to the ground, not knowing what he was going to do, so Yuan Zhao asked someone to help him to the side.
Fang Shu hurriedly said: "That's right, Hong Feng is just a bunch of rabble..."
"No, nephew, this red seal is not that red seal, and now the people behind it... can't be touched!"
"Then... Who are the people behind this?"
Zheng Guotai shook his head, "I can't say..." He made a gesture of wiping his neck, "It's about losing his head!"
"The two of us talked in private, and others couldn't hear it." Fang Shu was kind and deceptive.
Who would have thought that Zheng Guotai would keep his mouth shut, Fang Shu saw him as a dead oyster -- a mouth that couldn't be pried open.
A group of people drank happily, but they didn't notice that Wen Xuanqing and Qi Naozi had already stood behind Fang Shu, and Fang Shu whispered, "Take them away!"
Then he got up and said to Zheng's family: "Master Zheng is drunk, just entrusted the younger generation to send him back to the mansion, so I will leave." The two carried Zheng Guotai and prepared to leave. Zheng Guochang sensed something was wrong and wanted to stop him. Fang Shu endured his leg injury and stood up, his tone turned cold: "Uncle, do you believe in the younger generation? I'm not a bad person, I'm an imperial envoy at least! How come I've come here to stop you from left to right? Isn't this the emperor's land?!"
Zheng Wanhan was also frightened by Fang Shu's harshness and didn't speak, watching him limping and Wen Xuanqing and the others carried Zheng Guotai out from the side door beside the hall.
Yuan Zhao quickly raised his glass and said, "Uncle, don't let the fun get away if Mr. Zheng is gone!!"
After leaving the noisy crowd, Fang Shu couldn't help the pain, he became limp more and more, blood flowed down his legs and feet to the ground, dripping blood all the way.Qi Naozi was not in the mood to help the drunk old man anymore.
"My lord, what's wrong with your leg?!" He supported Fang Shu, "Why did you hurt your leg!?"
Wen Xuanqing said behind him: "He is trying to stay awake!"
Fang Shu shook his head, feeling a little sober with the night breeze blowing, "It's okay, just send Zheng Guotai to Dali Temple directly! I want to interrogate overnight!!"
Duan Ning was pulled out of the bed by him again, and he saw that Fang Shu's face was pale, his hair was almost soaked, and his legs were oozing blood, as if he had just escaped from the massacre on the battlefield, but his eyes were definitely not those of deserters, he It can only be the victorious general.
Fang Shu was afraid that his head would still be dizzy, so he soaked his head in the cold water at Dali Temple at night in March, and didn't wipe his face until the coldness hit him, and found a place for interrogation.
A bucket of cold water was poured down, and Zheng Guotai was also half awake. When he woke up, he found himself sitting on a cold stone bench with his hands tied behind the bench.
Duan Ning was as shocked as Zheng Guotai, he never expected that Fang Shu would directly bring this overbearing 'relative of the emperor' directly.
After a night of interrogation, Zheng Guotai gritted his teeth and didn't say a word. Fang Shu invited him to sit on the tiger stool, and he didn't say a word. Zheng Guotai was also tired from howling, and fell into a coma several times, Fang Shu gradually became top-heavy, and his pale face turned sickly flushed.
Duan Ning sighed, "Master Fang, you should go to rest first, I don't think you can ask anything for a while, Zheng Guotai can't hold it anymore, you should rest or rest, don't rush!"
Before Fang Shu finished listening, the whites of his eyes rolled, and he slid off the chair. Qi Naozi and Wen Xuanqing had quick eyes and quick hands, and hurried to catch him.
Duan Ning was afraid of losing his life, so he hurriedly said to Yang Tongyi: "Hurry up and ask for a doctor at the Imperial Hospital!! What kind of trouble is this all about!?"
Qi Naozi didn't care about Sanqi 21, and pinched the crowd, Fang Shu just let out a "□□", as thin as a mosquito, which at least made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Yang Tong traveled extremely quickly, and brought two veteran medical officers from the typhoid department and surgery department within less than a stick of incense.
Duan Ning was spinning around in the courtyard annoyed, and Yang Tong was upset by him, "What is your lord upset about?"
"This Mr. Huo said that he can't bring trouble, this Fang Shu is a troublemaker, I feel that he can stir up a big event! Almost killed!"
"Master Huo has his own decision, don't be annoyed, just talk to him directly."
"I'm just going to say, things are getting out of hand!"
In Chen Ju's written letter, it can be said that he has almost wiped out the remnants of the White Lotus Society. He also pulled out some local officials who had colluded with it, deposed many officials below the fifth rank, and many of them were directly ransacked.
Another thing is that Li Zheng's resignation has been approved and he has become a civilian.
Fang Shu, who had just woken up, couldn't help but sneered when he heard Qi Naozi's thoughts, "This is the so-called punishment... This is obviously a reward." When he got up, he found that his legs were tightly bandaged, The pain has subsided a lot, but I still feel a little overwhelmed.
"This is the wooden staff I cut for my lord this morning. You will use it for two days." Qi Naozi handed over the wooden staff that had just been set up by the door.
Fang Shu took it, and praised his hand very well, "You have two skills. What about Mr. Wen?"
"Master Zeng has something to do, so I called him back for the time being."
"What about Zheng Guotai? I have to interrogate something even if I let him lose his arms and legs today!" Fang Shu just finished speaking and the door opened.
Duan Ning came in and said to Qi Naozi: "I have a word with you adults, you go out first."
Waiting for Qi Naozi to go out, Yang Tong jumped in from the window, covered Fang Shu's mouth and nose with a sweat towel, Fang Shu's consciousness gradually lost again, and there was only one sentence in his ear: "I've offended you!"
When Qi Naozi saw Phalaenopsis, his face was full of joy, and he hurriedly stepped forward to take the wooden box, asking for warmth, Phalaenopsis was so teased that he blushed.
Fang Shu stepped forward and asked, "Why did Miss Die Lan come to Han Mansion?"
Phalaenopsis just remembered the business, "Miss said that Mr. Fang should also send some gifts when he is moving. She has been busy with the master's [-]th birthday recently. She also knows that Mr. Fang has been very busy recently, so she also invites Mr. Fang to attend our master's fifth birthday tonight." Ten birthdays."
"Okay, thank you miss, I'll come tonight." Fang Shu glanced at the wooden box in Qi Naozi's arms again, frowning casually, "Please tell Miss Die Lan to tell your miss, thank you for her gift."
Qi Naozi was the happiest and hurriedly said, "I'll come to you at night."
This day, Fang Shu brought Wen Xuanqing to a dyeing workshop in the outer city of the capital, dug three feet into the ground, took out several carts of gold, silver and jewels, and handed them over to the treasury. Fang Shu wrote a letter to the emperor, saying that it was interrogated by Huo Tailing , There is no credit for reading between the lines.
Wen Xuanqing took the initiative to act as Fang Shu's personal guard for fear of being assassinated due to the investigation of the Bailianhongfeng case.
Originally, Fang Shu wanted to refuse, but seeing that Wen Xuanqing was very worried about Huo Tailing and understood his desire to contribute, he compromised.
The two-day teaching was also delayed, and Fang Shu didn't have the heart to do it.
Wen Xuanqing followed Fang Shu, and it was getting dark now. On the way back to Zhong Xianju, "The Hongfeng sect has always been very secretive. No one has seen them, or they are all dead.

Fang Shu changed into a regular green shirt, which was elegant and steady. He carried the gift prepared by Qi Naozi. He opened it and saw that it was a golden Guanyin statue.
"Where did you get it here?! And your fancy clothes?"
Qi Naozi was dressed in light yellow hanging armor, lined with a navy blue inner gusset, and dark red upper shoes with gold rims on a white bottom. He looked like a mosquito.
For Fang Shu, this is really impossible to give away.
"I'm looking for Boss Bao to...borrow it.", Qi Naozi changed his words, "In your name...".
"Didn't you be asked to go to Guixiang Xiuke to make calligraphy and paintings?"

Zheng Wanhan brought them to the gazebo in the backyard, and said with a smile: "Fuyan, let's talk."
Wen Xuanqing and Qi Naozi stood behind Fang Shu, Fang Shu asked: "Where is Miss Die Lan?"
"Phalaenopsis went to help the backyard, I'll call her."
Fang Shu pressed her hand, "It's okay, you can just tell the story on your behalf. I am a stubborn servant, and I have a crush on Miss Die Lan. If both parties are interested, I will find a matchmaker to settle the matter."

"So you have a sweetheart?"
Fang Shu was stunned, Zheng Wanhan smiled, "Looks like I hit the spot, what kind of god is that, even Fu Yan couldn't wish for it, I'm really jealous..."
Zheng Wanhan never hides her own thoughts and feelings. She is so sassy and really likes Fang Shu, but it is just a good impression.
Fang Shu: "What kind of fairy is it? It's just that I met him earlier... If I didn't meet him sooner... maybe it wouldn't be him."

"It's really low-key! This Zheng Guotai relied on his sister's favor to be promoted to the Zuo Dudu, and also won the Zuo Dudu's mansion. It seems that this man has not lost his fat, and you Jin Yiwei don't check him well!"
Qi Naozi was so sour that he couldn't choose what to say.
Wen Xuanqing was also very angry at what he said, "This is a big fish! Move as soon as you say? And his Zheng family is deeply favored by the emperor. The emperor didn't say anything. How can it be Jin Yiwei's turn to speak?!"

Everyone was invited into the hall, the Jinping was lined up, and the seats were laid out. Zheng Guotai and some second and third-rank officials became the chief, and Fang Shu joined the audience. If there are waves, delicacies are like piles of mountains, food and cooking are exotic, and fruits are fresh when presented.
Fang Shu’s attention was only on the chief——to Zheng Guotai, who was serving the woman’s legs and twisting her flesh, saw him being a little dazed by the crowd, and he didn’t know where he was. The land was contracted, where the manor was changed, where the hotel was built, and they blew nonsense to the side regardless of the truth.
Holding the silver cup in his hand, Fang Shu ignored Qi Naozi's eating and drinking, Wen Xuanqing's sitting upright, and walked straight to the chief.
Seeing him coming, Zheng Wanhan hurriedly stepped forward to introduce him, "Father, Uncle, this is the Master Fang Fuyan I often mention!"
Fang Shu acted humbly, "I have met my uncle. Today is my uncle's [-]th birthday. It is a great honor to be invited here! My nephew will serve this glass of wine first as a respect."
After all, drink it up.
Zheng Guochang greeted him with a smile, pointed to the vacant seat beside Zheng Guotai and Zheng Guochang, and said: "Nephew, sit down quickly, I often hear my daughter mention it, she really looks extraordinary when she saw her today!"
Fang Shu took his seat generously, and said to Zheng Guotai, who was looking at him coldly, "I have seen Mr. Zuo Dudu!"
"Just say that...that adult who beat my nephew?!"
Fang Shu was also embarrassed when he said it, "The third prince is a little nervous, and I am also young at heart. I was a little confused for a while, so I got anxious. If I haven't come yet, I am in a hurry to apologize."
Zheng Guochang made a rescue from the sidelines, "Master Fang is very courageous! It is difficult for ordinary people to match, I think this is a good thing!"
He wanted to boast more, but was stared silently by Zheng Guotai.
Fang Shu laughed, "It's the fault of the lower officials who made the governor angry, and the lower officials punished themselves with three cups in order to apologize."
These three glasses of wine were drunk cleanly and boldly. Zheng Guotai's expression was a little loose, "Master, you have a lot of house inspectors, why don't you drink all the spirits in the white pot on the table?"
Fang Shu felt a little apprehensive as the three white pots on the table turned inside out, fearing that he would have missed the opportunity if he went there first.
Zheng Wanhan hurriedly said: "Uncle! Don't deliberately embarrass Fuyan, I will blame you!", half joking, half serious.
Zheng Guotai regarded this niece as his own, and loved her since she was a child. The demonstration of this little padded jacket was really powerful. Zheng Guotai only held his forehead while he was drunk, and did not speak.
Fang Shu smiled, "It's okay, I can make everyone happy today, not to mention these three pots, even ten pots are no problem."
In a short time, Fang Shu had finished drinking a bottle. At this moment, he felt dizzy and his head was swollen. After the second pot, his face was already blushing. In order to keep clear, he touched the dagger at his waist with his left hand. Because it is convenient to carry, it is used for defense.
He lifted up his trouser legs under the table again, piercing them straight into his calf, sweating coldly for a moment.
"Master Fang, you don't need to force yourself. If you just say something, I won't care about anything. I'm not a person who can't tolerate mistakes."
After the two jugs came down, the others were a little terrified and speechless, this is a wine from the West, it doesn't sting the throat but it is powerful.
Even if Fang Shu didn't want to get close to Zheng Guotai, he wouldn't listen to this sentence.
"Whatever it is, what I say counts." Fang Shu poured himself another pot.
Seeing the situation, Zheng Wanhan wanted to step forward to help Fang Shu, but Fang Shu stopped him, "I have nothing to do, it's rare that I can talk to Mr. Zheng, please don't join the fight."
Fang Shu was really dizzy, he held the handle with his left hand, gritted his teeth and twirled it around, his underwear was soaked with sweat.
Zheng Guotai laughed loudly, "Master Fang is really different from ordinary scholars...it's really very different!" He hooked Fang Shu's shoulder, "As a senior, I would like to advise you, don't stand up for the son of Duren!"
Fang Shu nodded and said yes, "It's too short for an official to be an official! I don't know the depth, so I'd like to ask the governor to give me some pointers."
"It's easy to say, I think you are an elf with intelligence, and you have a great friendship with Wan Han, so I will definitely support you a lot in the future!"
The two exchanged glasses again, Zheng Guotai was completely confused, not only did not listen to his entourage's persuasion, but even slapped his entourage a few times, "What a spoiler!"
"Don't get yourself down because of petty anger, come, Mr. Zheng, have a few more drinks!" Fang Shuyou pulled him into the sea and said some nice words to him. He is also an ordinary man and a common son, and he also loves to climb dragons and phoenixes.
Yuan Zhao also came over to toast, and asked: "Master Fang, isn't he working on the Hongfeng case recently? Come here for a drink if you have time?"
"It's a rare opportunity to come to Uncle Zheng's birthday and have a heart-to-heart chat with Mr. Zheng..." Fang Shu held his head, "Hey...the red seal sect has disappeared from head to toe, it's really embarrassing for me!", Fang Shu Turning to ask Zheng Guotai: "Master Zheng has been an official for many years, so he must know something about it."
Zheng Guotai's eyes were a little erratic, "Didn't the Red Feudal Sect rely on me for food?!" Zheng Guotai's son, Zheng Chengen, hurriedly stepped forward to stop his father.
"Father! You're drunk!!", helplessly, he had been poured a lot by Yuan Zhao just now, and the father and son were blindfolded.
"Go away!" Zheng Guotai pushed, and his son fell to the ground, not knowing what he was going to do, so Yuan Zhao asked someone to help him to the side.
Fang Shu hurriedly said: "That's right, Hong Feng is just a bunch of rabble..."
"No, nephew, this red seal is not that red seal, and now the people behind it... can't be touched!"
"Then... Who are the people behind this?"
Zheng Guotai shook his head, "I can't say..." He made a gesture of wiping his neck, "It's about losing his head!"
"The two of us talked in private, and others couldn't hear it." Fang Shu was kind and deceptive.
Who would have thought that Zheng Guotai would keep his mouth shut, Fang Shu saw him as a dead oyster -- a mouth that couldn't be pried open.
A group of people drank happily, but they didn't notice that Wen Xuanqing and Qi Naozi had already stood behind Fang Shu, and Fang Shu whispered, "Take them away!"
Then he got up and said to Zheng's family: "Master Zheng is drunk, just entrusted the younger generation to send him back to the mansion, so I will leave." The two carried Zheng Guotai and prepared to leave. Zheng Guochang sensed something was wrong and wanted to stop him. Fang Shu endured his leg injury and stood up, his tone turned cold: "Uncle, do you believe in the younger generation? I'm not a bad person, I'm an imperial envoy at least! How come I've come here to stop you from left to right? Isn't this the emperor's land?!"
Zheng Wanhan was also frightened by Fang Shu's harshness and didn't speak, watching him limping and Wen Xuanqing and the others carried Zheng Guotai out from the side door beside the hall.
Yuan Zhao quickly raised his glass and said, "Uncle, don't let the fun get away if Mr. Zheng is gone!!"
After leaving the noisy crowd, Fang Shu couldn't help the pain, he became limp more and more, blood flowed down his legs and feet to the ground, dripping blood all the way.Qi Naozi was not in the mood to help the drunk old man anymore.
"My lord, what's wrong with your leg?!" He supported Fang Shu, "Why did you hurt your leg!?"
Wen Xuanqing said behind him: "He is trying to stay awake!"
Fang Shu shook his head, feeling a little sober with the night breeze blowing, "It's okay, just send Zheng Guotai to Dali Temple directly! I want to interrogate overnight!!"
Duan Ning was pulled out of the bed by him again, and he saw that Fang Shu's face was pale, his hair was almost soaked, and his legs were oozing blood, as if he had just escaped from the massacre on the battlefield, but his eyes were definitely not those of deserters, he It can only be the victorious general.
Fang Shu was afraid that his head would still be dizzy, so he soaked his head in the cold water at Dali Temple at night in March, and didn't wipe his face until the coldness hit him, and found a place for interrogation.
A bucket of cold water was poured down, and Zheng Guotai was also half awake. When he woke up, he found himself sitting on a cold stone bench with his hands tied behind the bench.
Duan Ning was as shocked as Zheng Guotai, he never expected that Fang Shu would directly bring this overbearing 'relative of the emperor' directly.
After a night of interrogation, Zheng Guotai gritted his teeth and didn't say a word. Fang Shu invited him to sit on the tiger stool, and he didn't say a word. Zheng Guotai was also tired from howling, and fell into a coma several times, Fang Shu gradually became top-heavy, and his pale face turned sickly flushed.
Duan Ning sighed, "Master Fang, you should go to rest first, I don't think you can ask anything for a while, Zheng Guotai can't hold it anymore, you should rest or rest, don't rush!"
Before Fang Shu finished listening, the whites of his eyes rolled, and he slid off the chair. Qi Naozi and Wen Xuanqing had quick eyes and quick hands, and hurried to catch him.
Duan Ning was afraid of losing his life, so he hurriedly said to Yang Tongyi: "Hurry up and ask for a doctor at the Imperial Hospital!! What kind of trouble is this all about!?"
Qi Naozi didn't care about Sanqi 21, and pinched the crowd, Fang Shu just let out a "□□", as thin as a mosquito, which at least made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Yang Tong traveled extremely quickly, and brought two veteran medical officers from the typhoid department and surgery department within less than a stick of incense.
Duan Ning was spinning around in the courtyard annoyed, and Yang Tong was upset by him, "What is your lord upset about?"
"This Mr. Huo said that he can't bring trouble, this Fang Shu is a troublemaker, I feel that he can stir up a big event! Almost killed!"
"Master Huo has his own decision, don't be annoyed, just talk to him directly."
"I'm just going to say, things are getting out of hand!"
In Chen Ju's written letter, it can be said that he has almost wiped out the remnants of the White Lotus Society. He also pulled out some local officials who had colluded with it, deposed many officials below the fifth rank, and many of them were directly ransacked.
Another thing is that Li Zheng's resignation has been approved and he has become a civilian.
Fang Shu, who had just woken up, couldn't help but sneered when he heard Qi Naozi's thoughts, "This is the so-called punishment... This is obviously a reward." When he got up, he found that his legs were tightly bandaged, The pain has subsided a lot, but I still feel a little overwhelmed.
"This is the wooden staff I cut for my lord this morning. You will use it for two days." Qi Naozi handed over the wooden staff that had just been set up by the door.
Fang Shu took it, and praised his hand very well, "You have two skills. What about Mr. Wen?"
"Master Zeng has something to do, so I called him back for the time being."
"What about Zheng Guotai? I have to interrogate something even if I let him lose his arms and legs today!" Fang Shu just finished speaking and the door opened.
Duan Ning came in and said to Qi Naozi: "I have a word with you adults, you go out first."
Waiting for Qi Naozi to go out, Yang Tong jumped in from the window, covered Fang Shu's mouth and nose with a sweat towel, Fang Shu's consciousness gradually lost again, and there was only one sentence in his ear: "I've offended you!"
