When King Jiang and King Yue heard this, they immediately trembled with fear.
Zong Zhengqing is the King of Han Li Yuanjia. He usually looks gentle and gentle, but in fact he is always strict in his actions and never looks good on the children of the clan. If it is just an interrogation in the Jingzhao Mansion, they can afford it no matter how severe the punishment is.
, but once you pass through Zongzheng Temple, you might be able to deprive yourself of all your titles.
It's okay to be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts, but you can never lose your title!
It's no problem if you die, but if you can't even pass on your title, your children and grandchildren will have to scold you for being a useless ancestor every year when they worship their ancestors during the Qingming Festival? Looking at the kings of Wei, Wu, and Qi
The king's descendants have been prosperous and prosperous for generations, but they are afraid that their sons will secretly break off a piece of incense when they burn incense for them, and the food they offer will be cold...
Jiang Wang Li Yun looked like a dandy, but in fact he was as timid as a mouse. He immediately shook his head like a rattle and said repeatedly: "No, absolutely no! It's just an ordinary fight, and no one was killed. Where is Zongzheng worth visiting?"
Temple? Even if my brother was beaten in vain, we won’t hold him accountable, okay?"
King Li Zhen of Yue nodded his head like a chicken eating rice, and agreed: "That's right, it's just a fight, why should we hand it over to Zongzheng Temple? Ma Fuyin, you can punish according to the law, no matter what the outcome, I
Brothers can afford it and will never complain."
Ma Zhou sneered, who in the whole city of Chang'an doesn't know that you, the King of Yue, are the most messy and unruly? Now you are afraid that the punishment from Zongzheng Temple will be too severe, so you are pretending to be cowardly?
But this His Highness obviously did not realize that once the punishment is determined, it is not a question of whether you are willing to bear it, but a matter of the face of the entire royal family.
It's not enough to punish the Guanlong disciples harshly, it's not enough to sentence the clan disciples severely, it's not enough for He Xini, it's not even a good idea to hand over the matter to Zongzheng Temple as Fang Jun said...
Ma Zhou pondered undecided and looked at Fang Jun.
Fang Jun glanced at him, nodded slightly, and said: "Let's hand it over to Zongzheng Temple. This matter involves too much, and Jingzhao Mansion may not have the right to handle it... Speaking of which, either a clan member or a descendant of the clan is involved in this matter.
They are the descendants of honorable relatives, and they are all respectable people, and they must be given some dignity after all. It is better for Ma Fuyin to organize the files properly and let the injured people go back for treatment first, so as to avoid accidents and no one can bear the responsibility.
"
Everyone was stunned.
Where are the people who participated in the fights allowed to go home? All of these people are members of famous families and clans. Once one of them is released and disappears without a trace, where can he catch it again... Huh?
Ma Zhou's heart skipped a beat, and he nodded repeatedly: "What Fang Shaobao said makes sense."
After saying this, he looked at King Jiang, King Yue and Changsun Huan, and said solemnly: "I will follow Fang Shaobao's words and let you go home to deal with your injuries. But we are making scandals ahead, so I will give you dignity."
, but after all your meritorious deeds, if you try to escape in fear of crime after returning home, then don’t blame me for being unkind!"
King Jiang and King Yue were fine. When Changsun Huan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
This is a good idea!
Fleeing in fear of crime? Absconding in fear of crime!
He is not an idiot. At this time, he has realized that things today may not be good. If not, the Guanlong nobles will clash with the royal family, and the consequences will be disastrous. No matter what the outcome is by then, his eldest grandson Huan is afraid
It is impossible to escape guilt.
But if everyone is released back to their homes, and then takes the opportunity to escape without a trace, then this conflict can be eliminated before it intensifies - they are all from noble families, how could they be over a mere fight?
, thus issuing sea-catching documents and searching the world?
Moreover, people like Fang Jun and Ma Zhou, since they were able to come up with such a "bad idea", obviously also had a headache over how to deal with this matter, and their intention to let go was too obvious...
Thinking of this, Changsun Huan hurriedly said: "Don't worry Ma Fuyin, we are all law-abiding people. Since we have caused trouble, we will bear it no matter what. How can we flee in fear of crime and let Ma Fuyin's sincerity be betrayed? Wait until
Tomorrow morning, I guarantee that many of you will appear at Zongzheng Temple!"
Ma Zhou sneered in his heart, but said gently on his face: "This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a small matter. I also hope that Master Changsun will strictly restrain these Guanlong disciples. If you don't see anyone by then, don't blame me for taking advantage of it."
You’re asking!”
Changsun Huan slapped his chest loudly and said decisively: "Don't worry Ma Fuyin, if there is anything wrong, I am the only one who will ask!"
But I thought in my heart: Even if everyone runs away by then, what can you do to me? It’s just a pretext...
All parties agreed to deal with it this way. Ma Zhou immediately ordered the officials of Jingzhao Mansion to have all the personnel sign and sign, and then compiled the files and released everyone. He only gave a stern warning that he must rush to Zongzheng Temple to surrender tomorrow. Those who failed to show up within the time limit would be released.
Severe punishment without mercy!
Then just for a moment, the originally noisy Jingzhao Mansion became quiet...
In the duty room, Ma Zhou frowned and looked at Fang Jun, and sighed: "Erlang's method is considered a last resort. There is no way to deal with this matter, otherwise it will easily cause conflicts and intensify conflicts. I can only do it myself."
Come and bear the blame."
It is certain that almost no one will rush to Jingzhao Mansion to surrender early tomorrow morning. If they go from house to house to arrest people, all those involved in the case will inevitably disappear without a trace overnight.
Then when people were held accountable, it turned out that he, Jing Zhaoyin, was the one who "acted nonsense" and allowed the people involved in the case to return home for treatment, only to disappear without a trace...
Everyone can understand and understand the real reason afterwards, but responsibility is responsibility, and Ma Zhou must bear it.
Fang Jun shook his head and said: "How can it be so easy? Even if someone absconds in fear of crime, the case can only be temporarily shelved instead of being written off. Those Guanlong disciples will also become officials in the future. With this
The fact that the case record is on file is a problem, so the Guanlong nobles will definitely raise the matter again in the future, and the hidden dangers are still there."
Ma Zhou was slightly stunned and asked curiously: "What do you mean, Erlang..."
Fang Jun smiled bitterly and said: "The safest way is naturally to transfer the conflict."
Ma Zhou: "..."
The reason why this case cannot be resolved is because it directly caused a conflict between the Guanlong nobles and the clan children who represented the imperial power. In the current environment, it is easy to intensify the conflicts between the two parties, thus destabilizing the court.
, laying the foundation for disaster.
The conflict is between Guanlong and the imperial power. If this conflict is transferred out, the crisis will naturally be resolved.
But how can we say that this contradiction has been transferred?
Ma Zhou was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed, and he looked at Fang Jun in surprise.
"Erlang, are you thinking..."
Halfway through his words, Fang Jun waved his hand and interrupted, saying slowly: "If such an unexpected thing happens at such a sensitive time... we must not treat it as an accident."
"What Erlang means, I'm afraid there are still unknown things involved. It may even be a deliberate design by some people?"
After Ma Zhou realized it, he took a deep breath.
If it is true that there is a secret behind this matter and it is definitely not an accident, then there must be a back-up plan. Even if the Jingzhao Mansion lets the person go, it may not be able to eliminate the impact of this matter.
Fang Jun rubbed his brows and sighed: "Who knows? But the impact of this matter is too great. Once the conflict intensifies, the consequences are extremely unpredictable. It may be a fierce turmoil."
Ma Zhou already understood what Fang Jun wanted to do, but he still advised: "Brother already knows Erlang's intention, but in my opinion, it is better to go to the palace and ask His Majesty for instructions face to face. After all,
The criticism and criticism that Erlang had to endure afterwards would be as fierce as a storm, but for Erlang, it was completely an unreasonable disaster."
The so-called "transferring the conflict" is naturally to find a new carrier for the conflict between the imperial power and Guan Long. The easiest way is to turn the matter into a conflict between Guan Long and another party, thereby extracting the imperial power.
As Guan Long's "old enemy", Fang Jun is naturally the best person to pass the blame on to.
But it is conceivable that once Fang Jun was criticized by the Guanlong nobles alone, the imperial power, which had finally escaped from the matter, could only stand by and watch...
That kind of difficult situation and the pressure he endured, even if it couldn't tear Fang Jun into pieces, was enough to drown him.
Fang Jun smiled bitterly and said: "But if I meet His Majesty and get His Majesty's permission, then His Majesty will inevitably be involved again, and everything will go back to the far point. What's the point of doing all this? As a minister, I should be loyal to the Emperor and serve the country with all my life.
, Fortunately, even in the most difficult situation, we won’t end up dying.”
In the end, it was a joke, but it was enough to make Ma Zhou awe.
