Although Shen Yi is about the same age as Pang Tong, if he stands with Pang Tong, Pang Tong can at least equal Shen Yi. So when Shen Yi waved his thin arms and accused Pang Tong of being a corrupt official, many people looked at him with their eyes. Look, after some mental calculation, I basically believe Shen Yi's words.
These days, there are still people who don’t have enough to eat or wear warm clothes, and then they see Pang Tong with his bloated belly...
Well~o(*￣▽￣*)oHe must be a corrupt official and he didn’t run away!
Amidst the noise around her, Shen Yi shouted loudly, and then looking at Pang Tong's gloomy face, she felt a burst of joy in her heart.
Shen Yi is from Kuaiji. She lost her father when she was nine years old. She has always been dependent on others. After she grew up a little, she began to travel around the world. Later, she went to Yingchuan, then to Xiangyang, and then to Chang'an, originally thought that Pang Tong would pay some attention to the famous assassin he delivered, but unexpectedly, it was as silent as the stone sinking into the sea...
In fact, I can't blame Pang Tong. It's not that Pang Tong is arrogant or rude to the corporal. It's because some time ago, the Cavalry General Fei Qian found that his territory was now larger, and all kinds of birds flew in, in order to prevent the destruction of some hostile forces. , or due to the leakage of intelligence, the login of officials with unknown origins was temporarily stopped, and officials were appointed after being investigated first.
Although Shen Yi had been to Xiangyang and Yingchuan, how could Pang Tong easily grant any official position to such a person without a thorough investigation? In addition, he was indeed very busy during this period, so he did not pay attention to Shen Yi's reputation. That's what makes sense.
But Shen Yi didn't think so. He thought he had been insulted! He patiently handed over his assassination to Pang Tong, who looked like a corrupt official, but this guy actually dared to ignore him!
What an unbearable uncle...
Ever since, at this moment, Shen Yi's gaze towards Pang Tong was somewhat mixed with a look of pleasure, telling you to ignore Yu at first! Now, it's too late!
Confronting Pang Tong, Shen Yi didn't think it was a big deal at all. These days, criticizing officials is a kind of political correctness. The emperor is the emperor, and the emperor cannot do anything wrong, so if something happens, of course it is Regarding the problems of these officials above the court and at the grassroots level, I represent the vast number of people and spraying officials is a thing that can increase my reputation, build up my prestige, and show that I am not afraid of the powerful!
Even if you can't be an official now, it will still be beneficial in the future...
Didn't you look at the previous great sages who had great reputations in the country? Didn't they repeatedly refuse to be recruited by public officials, and then the prefectures and counties politely invited them, and the three governments handed them over to each other, and each one was given a bigger and better official position?
As a result, Shen Yi became more and more proud, jumping around like a male monkey who had been robbed of the peach in his hand. His face and buttocks turned red. He didn't know whether it was because of excitement or because his clothes were too thin. Some trembled slightly.
On top of a roadside restaurant.
"That's enough!" Du Ji said in a deep voice as he watched the situation in the street getting worse and worse, "So far, there is still room for maneuver! Brother Wei, don't make any mistakes!"
Wei Duan held the wine glass, glanced sideways, sat back down again, and after a moment of silence, he said: "This matter is not one person's business... What's more, if you hit the target, you have to do it..."
This fine tradition of coercing public opinion to oppress and then achieve one's own goals is also the same. It has been the same at all times and in all countries, just like the so-called extortionists in the name of loving dogs in later generations...
Even if Wei Duan is not doing it for others, he must do it for himself. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that now that Hussar General Fei Qian's territory has expanded, he urgently needs all kinds of talents to fill the place. Whether it is Guanzhong or Sichuan and Shu, there are more than ten prefects from various places.
How could such a big and fat pit not have a few Guanzhong people?
If we don't start a scene and then appease the common people, how can we show the energy of the Guanzhong gentry?
Therefore, this matter is no longer Wei Duan's alone, but a way to show his muscles and strength to the Cavalry General through this matter.
"Don't worry, Bohou..." In this situation, Wei Duan no longer concealed himself, lowered his voice and said in a very low voice, "This matter is also appropriate, it is limited to Pang Shiyuan alone... No way
Provoke the hussars..."
Wei Duan thought that Du Ji was afraid that the situation would escalate and provoke General Fei Qian, so he made a special explanation to reassure Du Ji. However, Du Ji shook his head and sighed: "Pang Shiyuan and General Hussar have classmates."
Friendship...How could this matter be so simple? I'm afraid I've fallen into a trap..."
Wei Duan's heart skipped a beat and he frowned and said, "But it was General Hussar who asked Pang Shiyuan to serve!"
There were also some minor officials from Guanzhong in the yamen of General Hussar. The news from these officials at that time was that General Fei Qian of Hussar ordered Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan to submit a letter to appoint him as an official. Isn't this attitude obvious enough?
Du Ji just shook his head, then sat down, also picked up a glass of wine, and said: "This is the end of my words, if Brother Wei is still obsessed with it... You and I have been friends for many years, and this is the end..."
After saying that, he raised the wine cup to salute Wei Duan, drank it all, placed it heavily on the table, then pulled away and went downstairs...
"Bohou! Bohou..."
Wei Duan raised his hand to greet him, but when he saw that Du Ji didn't even look back, he couldn't help but feel a little angry. He threw the wine cup on the table, but he accidentally knocked over a bean plate with a clang, and the dishes rolled down on the table.
There was quite a bit of mess on top of the floor and floor.
The guard outside the door heard the sound, and as soon as he stretched out half of his head, Wei Duan scolded him back. Anyway, being disturbed by Du Ji, Wei Duan had no intention of drinking. He stood up with a frown and moved to the window.
But this time, the high spirits just now are gone...
Is it really a cover-up thrown by the Cavalry General?
But the question is, if you don’t try it, how can you know whether it is true or false?
"Here comes..." Wei Duan pondered for a moment and finally ordered, "Let Kang'er come back immediately!"
No matter what, let’s get my family out of this matter first. Anyway, the probing action has been arranged, and the move has almost been changed...
"You are so guilty! You dare not reveal it to the public!" Shen Yi raised her arms and shouted, "You will definitely hide the people's wealth! You should expose it to the sun!"
Suddenly someone echoed loudly, and then clamored the people to move forward together, trying to tear off the felt, hemp ropes, etc. covering Pang Tong's vehicle. Naturally, Pang Tong's accompanying guards stepped forward to stop him. In the street, among the chaotic crowd, someone suddenly Shouting, "Pang's guards are committing murder! Help! Pon's guards are committing murder!"
The crowd was in an uproar, and then they couldn't help but give in, and a man with torn clothes, a bruised nose and a swollen face was revealed. There was blood dripping from his mouth and nose. He was pointing at Pang Tong's guards with grief and anger and yelling, "I am Pang Tong." He was beaten by the guards!"
Pang Tong choked and almost laughed. He quickly covered it with his hands, holding it back until his fat face turned red. Damn, you are looking for someone who is not professional. He looks miserable, but he is obviously a member of the noble family. Pretend, if they were ordinary people, they would be jumping around and scolding their mothers now. How could they say that they were beaten by Ponzi...
Pang Tong tried hard not to laugh, his fat face was dark and red, but he didn't expect it to be more effective. It made others feel that Pang Tong was guilty, suppressing his anger and not daring to show up. Suddenly he became more courageous, and someone rushed forward. , cried to heaven and earth, saying that the Ponzi guards were acting arrogantly, and asked someone to come forward to uphold justice.
"What's so noisy!"
Immediately there was a sound outside the crowd. After they separated like water, Jing Zhaoyin walked into the crowd with a group of people from Cao Xuelan. He glanced at Pang Tong, whose face was dark and red, and then deliberately As if he couldn't see it, he said with a stern face: "With so many people gathered here, are you causing trouble?"
The man with a bruised nose and face dripping with blood quickly stepped forward and said: "Out of public outrage, I inspected Pang's car dealership at the request of the people to check for corruption and property, but unexpectedly I was injured by Pang's evil slave..."
"Hey! It turned out to be Pang Zhijun's chariot dealer!"
Several nobles who were supporting the injured people immediately cried out for injustice. On the one hand, they said that now that Pang Tong had become an official, he was no longer an "envoy", so naturally it was not a collision. On the other hand, they also said that this was the public opinion, and he was just acting on behalf of the public opinion. That's all, how can this be considered audacious? Could it be that Xue Lan wanted to protect corrupt officials regardless of public opinion?
"What? Pang Shijun has already become an official?" As if he had just learned about this, Xue Lan seemed to be persuaded after some words, and said, "The public opinion is so clear, Pang Shijun might as well just accept it." Come on... I wonder what Commander Pang has in mind?"
Pang Tong glared at Xue Lan and said, "You are so rude! Your position was appointed by someone! What happened today is that you are going to humiliate someone based on public opinion?"
Humph, who are you scaring? Xue Lan sneered.
He originally asked Pang Tong just to be on the safe side. After all, if Pang Tong had any other support, he should probably bring it out under such circumstances. However, when he heard that Pang Tong could only rebuke him in words, he could not bring it out.
After something substantial came, he naturally calmed down and said, "Pang Shijun is clear! As an official, I should work for the benefit of the people of the world, not just for Pang Shijun's personal gain! If Pang Shijun
If you are selfless to the world, why should you be afraid of exposing your car to the world!? Besides, this person has not looted Pang Shijun's property, so why should he be beaten and seriously injured?! The world is clear and the public opinion is overwhelming. Pang Shijun must not go against the public opinion of heaven and earth.
And do it!"
Pang Tong's hands trembled, and he pointed at Xue Lan and said: "You...you, you...all these people are white, how can they have the right to inspect them! Go quickly, go quickly! Come on, get up! Get up!"
OK!"
"Wait a minute!" Seeing Pang Tong's panic, Xue Lan became more determined. She immediately took a step forward and shouted in a deep voice, "It's true that this person has no power in his white body! However, a certain person is a Jingzhao Yin Congcao, who investigates internal organs and corrects evil.
It is our duty to eradicate traitors and punish slippers! Come here! Let Pang Shiyuan's car dealership be inspected to rectify public opinion!"
"Wait a minute! The carriages are all heavy objects of the county, how can we inspect them at will?" Pang Tong shouted, "Xue Congcao, you and I had no enmity in the past, why do you want to do this today?"
Xue Lan originally heard about the importance of the county, and her heart skipped a beat, but after hearing the second half of Pang Tong's words, her heart returned to her stomach again, and she replied proudly: "I am not making things difficult for you."
, it makes it difficult for the king to satisfy the public opinion! If the king is made magnanimous, then there is nothing to fear! You need to know that the way of heaven is clear and retribution will not be satisfactory! Corrupt officials will be punished by everyone!"
Damn it, you're scaring me again. How could I be deceived by your little tricks?
Xue Lan's righteous words attracted a round of applause from the onlookers. Naturally, the melon-eaters like to beat up a drowned dog the most, so under the guidance of a thoughtful person, they still shouted for inspection, and the sound was louder than before.
For a while...
Xue Lan looked at the deep ruts on the road again, and knew clearly in her heart that there must be something heavy in this vehicle. It was probably filled with an unknown amount of gold and silver. Pang Tong just said it again and again.
Refusing to accept inspection, because everyone knows that if these gold and silver are really exposed, even if the reward Pang Tongzheng'er received is not corruption, it will be unclear. By that time...
What's more, the more Pang Tong blocks it, the more evil he is in his heart!
Moreover, according to the previous discussions, it was decided to make a bigger fuss, and it must be done in full view of the public. Otherwise, President Pang will always have reasons to evade. Only when the matter is confirmed, will it be truly indefensible.
The argument left Pang Tong speechless.
However, Xue Lan also felt a little strange. According to the original plan, at this time, some so-called Qingliu bachelors and disciples of the academy should stand up to support them, just like those who "accidentally encountered" the lawless people in the Imperial Academy, and then
Citing scriptures for Xue Lan's behavior, firstly, it can prove the rationality of his behavior, and secondly, he can also become famous and increase his reputation. But now these people have not appeared, and I don't know what is the reason?
However, I can’t care about that much at the moment. Originally, the support from these students was just the icing on the cake. Without these students sharing the profits, it’s not bad that this reputation can be enjoyed exclusively by myself!
So Xue Lan did not wait any longer, and ordered his followers to come forward, preparing to push aside Pang Tong's guards, pull off the felt covering the vehicle, and understand the matter thoroughly.
"Xue Zhan!" Pang Tong stopped him again, "It is a serious crime to seize the property of the county without permission from superiors! Don't make a mistake!"
Xue Lan said proudly: "I am asking for life for the people! Even if I am guilty, I am willing to accept it! Come here! Don't say more! Collect the vehicle for inspection!"
Pang Tong looked around and seemed to think that no one would jump out, so he sipped his teeth, sighed, and said: "That's fine, you... all stand down! Let them be inspected!"
Pang Tong's sudden attitude changed, causing the original smile on Xue Lan's face to freeze...
Isn't this trying to scare me again?
But now that we've reached this point, we can't say sorry and just turn around and leave, right?
So Xue Lan could only bite the bullet and let his men untie the hemp ropes tied to the vehicle, and then pulled off the tightly covered felt cloth...
