The Fan family has been doing evil in Jiangdu for a long time.
In the past, it was because no one could do anything to get rid of them, and the victims had no way to sue, so they kept it in their hearts.
But this kind of thing cannot be started.
Just like Huang Silang and Mr. Huang.
Once the fear in the hearts of the people dissipates, and once someone can really stand up for them, the hatred that has been suppressed for a long time will come out one after another.
You must know that although the Fan family ten years ago was also a big business, in terms of land alone, the Fan family's land ten years ago was only more than thirty hectares, that is, more than three thousand acres of land. But ten years later, Today, the Fan family's farmland has exceeded 10,000 acres. How did the "primitive accumulation" of these 7,000 acres come from?
Maybe part of it is legitimate income, and part of it is given as a gift by others for Fan Shilang's sake, but it's absolutely impossible to get it all clean.
Some of the land here must have been taken by force.
It just so happened that Shen Yi's newspaper department had uncovered some dirty information about the Fan family and had obtained specific evidence. As long as the evidence was obtained first and then the cases were handled, the county government could naturally close the cases quickly.
In fact, the first few victims who came to the county government to complain were manipulated by Shen Yi behind their backs.
In fact, the Fan family also recognized this level.
Therefore, during the lawsuit with the three brothers of the Zhu family, Fan Lian, the fourth master of the family, came to the scene in person and argued with the county magistrate. In the end, he even sent people to the Zhu family in private, preparing to give the Zhu family a taste of the pain. Warn others not to have evil thoughts towards the Fan family.
The Fan family's move was successfully stopped by the county government.
After the three brothers of the Zhu family won the lawsuit, the situation of the Fan family was over.
Whether others have long-standing grievances or are adding insult to injury, it is foreseeable that in the future, there will be a steady stream of people coming to the county government to complain.
It started with the seizure of land.
Later, he was disabled by the Fan family.
And in the end, it will be a murder case.
After the two senior brothers drank a round of wine, Shen Yi took out a few letters from his arms, handed them to Zhang Jian, and said: "Brother, this was the fifth year of Hong De's reign. Fan You personally sent it to Master Lu. Please take a look first."
Zhang Jian took these letters from Shen Yi.
Seeing Zhang Jian opening the letters one by one, Shen Yi let out a breath of alcohol.
"It happened during the Yuanxi period."
Shen Yi poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
The more Zhang Jian looked, the uglier his face became.
Finally, he read several letters, stretched out his hand and slapped the table hard, shaking with anger.
"A family of seven died silently because they were two days late in paying their rent!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "The Fan family deserves to die, and the county magistrate deserves to die even more!"
Shen Yi looked at the letter with a complicated look on his face: "It has been fourteen years since the events of the sixth year of Yuanxi. I checked the county magistrate of Jiangdu in the sixth year of Yuanxi. This person's surname was Shi, and he served in Jiangdu for the full term. After that, he was transferred to the prefecture, and then he rose to prominence all the way, and now he is the governor of a province and a high official in the border areas."
"Ho!"
Zhang Jian raised his head, took a sip of wine, and cursed: "Shit world!"
"This is indeed a bullshit world."
Shen Yi had a drink with him. After drinking a glass of wine, he was two or three points drunk: "The Fan family is running rampant in the countryside. If Fan You doesn't fall, it will be difficult for you, me, and even Uncle Zhao to bypass the Criminal Department and take action." Fan family!"
"The general of the Zhao clan suffered a defeat on the front line for half a year. It can be said that he lost his troops and generals! What's the result? After returning to Jiankang, he should be rewarded and take credit!"
Having said this, Shen Yi raised his head and took a sip of wine: "This world needs to change."
Shen Yi lowered his eyebrows slightly and said, "Otherwise, we will be completely ruined before Qi people come to fight us."
"This revolution starts from the Fan family in Jiangdu, so that they can get the retribution they deserve."
Hearing Shen Yi's words, Zhang Jian County Lord Zhang showed a smile on his face. He gave Shen Yi a toast and laughed and said: "Zi Heng has great ambitions. Other brothers can't help you much, but I serve as Jiangdu County Magistrate." I took on as many cases as there were people who came to sue the Fan family the previous day."
Shen Yi raised his glass and gave a toast to Zhang Jian: "In Jiangdu, if you really want to take action against the Fan family, you also know that the government office has tacit approval. Senior brother is busy at the county office. Tomorrow, I will go see Zheng. The Lord of the Palace."
Zhang Jian smiled and clinked glasses with Shen Yi.
"Just do as you say, Ziheng."
That night, the two of them drank for half the night, but because they had things to do the next day, they only drank forty-five minutes before they were drunk. Zhang Jian went back to the back office to rest, while Shen Yi went home to rest. .
Early the next morning, Zhang Jian climbed out of bed and went to the county government office to handle today's case, especially the case of the Fan family's disability.
Shen Yi, on the other hand, put on a new suit of clothes, had breakfast on the street, and then went to Mo Yanzhai to buy a high-priced inkstone that was said to have come from Jiankang Huangshizhai. He came to the gate of the prefect's Yamen and handed over his own. Name sticker.
What I have to say is that Mr. Hanlin's name is very useful. Not long after Shen Hanlin's name sticker was handed in, he was invited by the government officials to wait in the living room. After waiting for about a cup of tea, one person kept it. The little fat man with a mustache walked in with a smile, raised his hands to Shen Yi and said: "The Duke of Hanlin is here, the government office is in full glory."
Shen Yi stood up and returned the salute, lowered his head slightly and said, "The master of the palace was born late."
In terms of rank, the prefect of Jiangdu is the fourth rank and Shen Yi is the eighth rank, which is half as high as him.
But this half can be said to be completely different in the officialdom.
However, because Shen Yi was a commoner and reported to the chief minister in Jiankang, Zheng Fuzun still gave Shen Yi some face.
"Master Hanlin, there is no need to be formal."
Magistrate Zheng pulled Shen Yi to sit down and said with a smile: "Mr. Zheng ranked over ninety in the palace examination back then. If it weren't for his good luck, he almost fell to the top three. The common people in the same subject couldn't even look at it. Look at me, it's rare that I sit with a scholar from the Hanlin Academy today."
"To be honest, Mr. Fu, I am also a top grader."
Shen Yi took out the inkstone from his pocket and said with a smile: "It's just good luck and being promoted to the Hanlin Academy by His Majesty's grace. It's not really his ability."
This sentence carries a very heavy weight.
In the officialdom, the scientific examination is of course a real skill, but if you want to be successful in the court, it does not mean that you have good grades in the examination.
Even a nerd can't be an official.
Among the top picks over the years, there are not many who can really worship the prime minister.
Everyone knows that if you want to rise quickly and steadily in the officialdom, you must let the big boss notice you, which is the so-called "Jane in the Emperor's Heart".
And Shen Yi's words not only showed that the emperor noticed him, but also meant that he had "holy favor".
When he finished saying this, Shen Yi had already pushed the inkstone in his hand in front of Magistrate Zheng, and said with a smile: "I was in a hurry during my last visit, so I forgot to bring a gift to the magistrate. Wan Sheng bought this on Yantai Street yesterday. It is said that it is the Huangshi inkstone from Huangshizhai in Jiankang Bitong Lane. A small gift is not a sign of respect, so it should be regarded as a gift to the royal family."
Among literati, giving money is tacky, but giving the four treasures of the study is an elegant thing.
Zheng Fuzun looked at the inkstone in front of him, then at Shen Yi, and sighed: "To be honest, Zheng likes this inkstone very much, but Shen Hanlin should talk about it first, otherwise this inkstone is too big, and Zheng It cannot be stuffed into my arms."
Shen Yi smiled and shook his head: "How can Wansheng dare to trouble the Lord with anything?"
"My Lord is raising Jiangdu for Your Majesty. As one of the common people of Jiangdu, I just hope that my Lord can do justice in Jiangdu..."
