Chapter 1,336 Rainy Night (7) (For the leader, dear, okay?
Cheng Wu couldn't understand what they were saying...
But it doesn't matter, he always follows Fang Jun's lead and is obedient!
"I'll organize people to climb over the wall and set a fire. It's just...it rained all day today, and the wood is too moist. I'm afraid it won't be easy to set the fire, and it won't be too big if it is set." Cheng Wuting scratched his head.
, today is really not a good weather to set fire to.
Wang Xuance said: "What's so difficult about this? Just bring a few more people and prepare a few more barrels of kerosene."
Cheng Wu's eyelids twitched wildly. These two guys were really more fearless than the other...
However, the fact of setting fire did not indicate the technical level. I immediately ordered people to quickly get kerosene and organized more than twenty skilled hands to climb over the wall and set fire.
Wang Xuance warned again: "Take off all your official clothes so that you don't bump into anyone and have your identity revealed. Also, after entering, set a fire while shouting, 'Stop the demolition' and 'Give me the East City'... That's what these bastards inside are doing now."
Listen to what is being shouted, memorize a few words, and then go in and set fire to it while shouting."
Cheng Wu raised his head and said, "This is too bad..."
Having said that, he immediately waved his hand and ordered people to go in and set fire to it.
Seeing these patrol officers with quick hands climbing up the wall of the square like monkeys on ropes, and then climbing over the wall into Xuanyang Square, Wang Xuance said: "When the fire breaks out, we will immediately enter Dongshi to arrest people.
The crime is to gather a crowd to cause trouble and commit arson!"
Fang Jun nodded with satisfaction, looked at the top of the square wall where the patrolman disappeared, and asked: "Are there any important ministers or relatives living in Xuanyang Square?"
Wang Xuance was not sure, so after thinking for a while, he said uncertainly: "Probably... it seems... Liu Jie, the censor and censor, lives here, right?"
Fang Jun was slightly startled...
Liu Jie?
Haha, what a coincidence...
*****
It's raining at night, and a lamp is like a bean.
In the study, Liu Ji put down the brush in his hand, rubbed his sore eyes, picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip. After drinking the warm and fragrant tea, his energy suddenly lifted, and then he put down the tea cup and took it.
Read the memorial you have written carefully to see if there are any omissions in the wording and sentence making, and whether the intention and writing are biased.
He checked it word by word and found no omissions. Liu Ji proudly folded the board neatly and put it on his desk, waiting to be presented to His Majesty at the morning meeting tomorrow. General memorials need to be submitted to the Political Affairs Hall first.
, it will be submitted to His Majesty’s desk only after being reviewed by all the prime ministers and assistants. Liu Jie is one of the few bigwigs in the Censor’s office who manages the writings and serves as the Censor, so he naturally has the power to submit the memorial directly to His Majesty.
He ordered the maid to make another pot of hot tea. Liu Jie did not go to wash up and go to bed. Instead, he continued to sit in the study, sipping tea and thinking about how to deal with the morning meeting tomorrow and how to cooperate with Changsun Wuji.
, Xiao Yu and others, how to drive Fang Jun out of Chang'an and the capital, how to seize their own interests...
Censor Zhongcheng!
This is the position that Changsun Wuji and others promised to him. Once Fang Jun is overthrown, he, Liu Ji, will become the highest officer of Yushitai!
Liu Jie had no doubts about the ability of the family members. Even after the death of the Centipede Insect, he was still alive, not to mention that he had just been suppressed by His Majesty. Although he was not as powerful as in the past, he was still powerful enough to make the emperor compromise.
Furthermore, he, Liu Jie, is currently in the limelight and is regarded by the people as a model of upright and famous official. He is more than enough to serve as the chief minister of the imperial censor for one term. Your Majesty will definitely not force himself to exclude himself from the position of the chief official of the censor!
As for Fang Jun...
Liu Jie never forgot the punch that made him lose face and turn him into a laughing stock!
In the past, he was able to support Fang Jun when he was in prison just to gain reputation. This definitely did not mean that Liu Ji had a broad mind and just laughed it off and ignored his grudges! At that time, he helped Fang Jun for profit, but now he backhanded Fang Jun and knocked him down.
Dust is still for profit!
When the direction of interests and the goals of hatred are perfectly unified, what else needs to be considered?
Liu Ji went through the situations he might encounter tomorrow morning in his mind one by one, thinking clearly about how to respond and how to refute.
The overall situation has been decided.
He relaxed his body comfortably and leaned back on the chair, picked up the teacup and took a sip...
"boom!"
The door was suddenly knocked open, and the loud noise scared Liu Ji. He suddenly swallowed the hot tea that had just entered his mouth. It made his mouth hurt, his tongue hurt, and even his esophagus was on fire. He said angrily.
: "How outrageous! Are there any more rules?"
The person who knocked through the door and walked in was an old steward of the mansion. He looked frightened. He was startled by Liu Jie's loud shout and said quickly: "Master, something serious has happened..."
Liu Jie angrily scolded: "Don't worry about anything, just be calm when it comes to things! Although a certain family is not a first-class family with bells and pans, it is also a family of etiquette and heirlooms of poems and books! How is it appropriate to be in such a panic?
Is the sky falling?"
How infuriating!
I see now that it is Yushi Zhongcheng, who is one of the most powerful men in the court, a first-class minister who has the power to inspect the officials and hear the news, but the servants in the house are so uneducated that they panic when something happens and spread the word.
Isn’t that just making other people laugh off their big teeth?
The old steward looked at Liu Ji's eyes, trembled with fright, and said with a sad face: "The sky has not fallen... but the house is on fire!"
Liu Jie said angrily: "What could be more important than the sky falling? Since the sky is not falling, you must behave yourself and pay attention to etiquette, and don't become a laughing stock... Wait, what did you just say?"
After a few words of instruction, Liu Ji finally realized what the old steward said... Is it on fire?
The old steward was almost dying of anxiety, and he stamped his feet and said: "Master, please go out and take a look. You have a lot of time to teach this slave, but there is a fire in the backyard, and the fire is very big!"
Liu Ji suddenly changed his color and became furious: "Fire and water are ruthless. A fire in your home is such a big deal, but you still have the time to talk to me like this? What a bastard!"
In a panic, he picked up a coat hanging on the chair and put it on. He didn't have time to put on his raincoat and hold an umbrella, so he ran out of the study in a hurry.
As soon as he came out, he noticed that the backyard was red. Liu Jie was so frightened that his liver trembled. He quickly ran around the yard and ran to the backyard. He saw that several houses were already on fire. It was raining but could not put out the fire. The fire only spread from the house.
It ignited internally, and when it reached the outside, it was rained on, and black smoke billowed up. The situation was horrific.
While the black smoke was billowing, words such as "Give me back Dongshi", "Evict Fang Jun", "Resist demolition" and so on were heard one after another. The servants and maids in the mansion were panicking and running back and forth with buckets to put out the fire. It was a mess.
…
Liu Ji was so angry that he almost lost his temper!
The dignified house of the Censor, the Censor...oh, it turns out to be the Censor Zhongcheng, and someone actually sneaked into it and set it on fire?
It’s so deceiving!
The old steward ran from behind, opened the umbrella in his hand and put it over Liu Jie's head, and asked in a trembling voice: "It seems that there are people gathering and making trouble in Dongshi. Could it be that those troublemakers took advantage of the chaos and set fires everywhere?"
Liu Ji's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Fart! They are all small businessmen and hawkers. They have kidnapped a few people at most. After eating leopards, they dare to go to the homes of important officials and set fire to them? You are so impatient that you don't do this! You
After hearing the news, there was a lot of kerosene everywhere and asked, this is obviously a well-prepared and long-planned conspiracy!"
The old steward was a little confused: "Then these people..."
Liu Ji gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "It must be those aristocratic families who caused these thugs to come to a certain house and set fire to it!"
The old steward didn't know that Liu Jie was colluding with the family members to frame Fang Jun, and he didn't understand why those family members came to his house to set fire to him. He just wondered: "If this is true, why are you still shouting those slogans?
Doesn't this mean that there are no three hundred taels of silver here, exposing their identities?"
Liu Ji's eyes widened, and he felt a sigh of relief in his chest, but this time there was no explanation.
You must never tell anyone about your connection with a noble family, even to the most trusted servant around you...
As for the fact that there is no three hundred taels of silver here...do you think I, Liu Jie, am a fool?
With the insidiousness and cunningness of Changsun Wuji and those people, they have a lot of thoughts!
If any evidence is directly left to show that these murderers are soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion, Fang Jun's men will definitely become suspicious, because Fang Jun is not stupid either! Who would expose themselves after doing bad things and setting a fire?
When is the time to hold people accountable?
But now that these thugs are shouting slogans to boycott Fang Jun, there are more tricks in it...
Liu Ji squinted his eyes and began to figure out the "truth" of the whole process...
