Xiangye

Chapter 155 Everyone Has Backers
"Teacher, the student has a question that I don't know if I should say it or not?" Gao Wen asked cautiously during Xu Yu's visit to the imperial envoy.

Xu Yu: "Say it."

Gao Wen said cautiously: "Students think that the case of my teacher's investigation of Shaanxi Ma's political abuses is so serious. This case is not limited to Huang Wei and Yuan Xinyun, and how many officials may be involved. Teacher, you will take down Yuan Xinyun as soon as you come. , wouldn’t it be to startle the snake and put others on guard?”

Xu Yu chuckled: "Erzhi, if I don't come to rescue you today, you will be beaten to death in the courtroom."

Gao Wen answered cautiously: "Compared with Shaanxi Mazheng, what is the mere surname of a student?"

Xu Yu nodded: "Well, it's not bad if you think so. However, don't worry, my teacher has already sent people to the chief minister's office and sealed all the books related to Yu Mazheng. Hehe, this I don’t know how many people will show their true colors.”

Gao Wen was overjoyed: "That's good, the Shaanxi horse administration has such a big loophole, we must not let these **** escape. If the teacher needs the students to do something, just order it."

Today, Huang Wei swaggered away from under his nose. Gao Wen was thinking about how to take him down and get rid of this great hatred.Seeing that Mr. Xu meant to make this case a big one, if it really got to that point, it would be a confrontation between big shots.In comparison, both himself and Huang Wei are nothing but insignificant pawns.If the backer behind Huang Wei falls, it will be very easy to overthrow him.On the contrary, Gao Wen's fate will be miserable.

Xu Xuan shook his head: "This case is useless for you, and there is still a while to go to the township examination. What you need to do now is to prepare for the exam, and come out with a reputation to show everyone."

Gao Wen: "Yes, the student is resigning."

Xu Yu thought for a while, then called Gao Wen: "Er Zhi, I heard about you when I went to Hancheng to arrest related criminals last time. You are skilled in martial arts, wise and brave, and you are filial to your mother. Huang Wei Bullying your old mother, think about it, you will get rid of it quickly. But don't forget, the imperial examination is the most important thing for you at the moment, put other things aside, and you must not lose the big because of small things."

What he meant by this passage was to warn Gao Wen not to think about seeking revenge on Huang Wei, which would cause extra problems.Once he commits a murder, he ruins his own future.

Xu Zhen had known Gao Wen's personality and read his papers, and he was moved by the love of this man with both civil and military skills, and wanted to get it in his pocket.Yes, his reputation is bad now, and everyone under his sect sees that his prospects are bleak, so they all switch to his sect one after another.Up to now, Master Xu's disciples are full of crooked melons like Diao Hualong, who are basically useful when encountering troubles, and it's time to let go of the old and bring in the new.

Gao Wen: "Teacher, don't worry, even if the student wants to take revenge, he will be upright and upright, and he will never dare to destroy his future, and he will act like a knight-errant." He already knew Huang Wei's address when he went to apply for the yamen. There is indeed an urge to kill this great evil.After being reminded by Mr. Xu, he immediately calmed down: Yes, I don't want a good future, so why take risks?It's better to study your homework, and it's important to win the honor of juren.

Xu Yu: "That's good, let's go down!"

As soon as Gao Wen walked out the door, he saw one of Lord Xu's disciples rushing into the room: "My lord, Gao Ling Han Gao Buzheng invites you to come over and talk about the case of Yuan Xinyun embezzling Mo Mazheng's money."

Xu Yu's happy laughter came from inside: "The old man on the front foot arrested Yuan Xinyun and sealed the tent of the Buzheng Secretary, and then Mr. Tall jumped out on the back foot. He was really impatient. There is no silver 300 taels here! Well, well, prepare the car Ma, this imperial envoy is going to meet this big official in the frontier."

Gao Wen's heart trembled when he heard this: Could it be that the Chief Envoy of Shaanxi Province is also involved in this case? It's so lively!

************************************************** *******
"Bang!" Huang Wei slammed the tea cup in his hand on the ground: "Gao Wen, Gao Wen, Gao Wen!"

The sound of his gnashing of teeth filled the room, and a confidant came over tremblingly and bent down to pick up the debris on the ground.

"Get out!" Huang Wei, who wanted to be gentle and generous in front of his subordinates, kicked him out.

His seemingly harmless face has become distorted and hideous.

"Ah!" The subordinate screamed, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fled out scrambling.

"Gao Wen, Gao Wen, you little bastard, are you the disaster star in my life? Is it possible that I, Huang Wei, are really going to be ruined by you this time. Mei Liang and his son are dead, and Han Guizi is dead. I beg you Thanks...Could it be my turn this time...I regret it, if I knew this, I shouldn't have agreed to Li Jinbao's promotion of you into the Yamen. If I had known this, I should have found a few desperadoes to kill you directly At that time, you were nothing more than an ant in my eyes...but now, but now, the ant has become a scholar, and even climbed the high branch of the Imperial Commissioner... What should I do, what should I do manage?"

Huang Wei trembled violently when he thought of the situation when Mei Liang and his son and Han Kui's body were sent back to Hancheng.

In fact, ever since these three people were killed by Gao Wen, Huang Wei has been in constant panic.As soon as I close my eyes at night, I see their pale and lifeless faces floating in front of me.Several times in his dreams, he dreamed of three people standing at the end of the dark tunnel and waving to him.

After this happened several times, he was going crazy.

Walking, walking, sitting and lying down on weekdays, he was always suspicious, for fear that Gao Wen would suddenly jump out from the dark with a knife.

It's a pity that in the past six months, Gao Wen seemed to have evaporated from the world. Even if he wanted to preemptively strike, he couldn't do it.

Today I finally saw Gao Wen, but he found a big backer.

Originally, with the promise of Yuan Xinyun and the forces behind him, he was sure to get the honor of this year's Shaanxi Provincial Examination, and they would find him an official position for Huang Wei in the future.Seeing that a big fortune is just around the corner, but when Mr. Xu and the bastard surnamed Gao arrive, everything becomes a mirror image.Not only that, but I'm afraid that his own head will also be lost.

"No, I'm not waiting to die, I can't... I have to do something... Otherwise, maybe that little bastard surnamed Gao will kill him at night..." Huang Wei walked back and forth in the room in a panic, walking It took a long time to remember that there was a waist knife hidden under his pillow.

He hurriedly fumbled it out, wanting to hang it on his belt.However, his hands trembled violently, and after hanging on for a long time, another subordinate came in from outside: "Third Master."

Huang Wei shouted: "Didn't you say it, don't bother me if you have nothing to do!"

The subordinate shrank back: "Third Master, there are guests coming to visit your old man."

"What, someone came to look for me, but Gao Wen... yes, yes, he must have come to seek revenge on me... How many people have come, but are there any officials?" Huang Wei's voice changed.

"Not Gawain."

"It's not Gao Wen, what the hell are you here to report?" Huang Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Subordinate: "Third Master, the younger one has to come and report. The guest looks very dignified and says he is your old friend, so please see him no matter what."

"Old friend, I have a lot of old friends. Hey, in this world, I can understand straight mothers and thieves. Every one of them is full of fire in front of them, with a knife behind their backs. No one can be trusted. I'm going to have a look. Where exactly is it sacred?"

When Huang Wei entered the main room with a knife, there was already a middle-aged scholar waiting there, drinking a cup of tea leisurely.

Seeing Huang Wei holding a steel knife with a murderous look on his face, the scribe's face darkened, he put the cup heavily on the table, and shouted: "Boss Huang, at any time, the old man will come to see you for something important. But you After dawdling, he came out with weapons again. Seeing that you are afraid of being like this, what do you say?"

The Huang Wei who came here was acquainted, and it was the person who scolded him when Li Zhen, the chief examiner of this session of the township examination, was on Ma Kua Street in the morning.

This person is one of the staff of Gao Linghan, the governor of Shaanxi, and his surname is Ma.He didn't have much contact with Huang Wei before, and when he was parading around the street, seeing Huang Zhubo was very unpleasant.Huang Wei felt very strange when he took the liberty to visit this time.

However, he is also the master of the big official in the frontier at any rate, so it is not easy to offend.

Huang Wei hurriedly threw away the knife in his hand, cupped his hands and smiled apologetically: "It turned out to be Mr. Ma. Huang Wei reviewed his homework for a few days and felt weak all over. He was planning to exercise his muscles and bones in the courtyard. I didn't want your old man to come. I'm sorry! But I don't know what orders the master has come to my humble house?"

"Orders, of course there are orders." Master Ma crossed Erlang's legs, and said this sentence very bluntly: "I will say something later, you have to get it done."

Seeing him being so rude, Huang Wei felt an inexplicable evil fire in his heart.I sneered in my heart: Although your surname is Ma is the master of the chief envoy, but I didn't put my mouth on your stove to eat.

But on the surface, he still respectfully said: "Mr. Ma, let's just say it. If Huang can do it, he will never shirk it."

"It's not a big deal." Master Ma said indifferently: "I just heard that Mr. Xu Xun today brought down the case of Yuan Yu who was brought to the Criminal Division, saying that it involved the issue of horse administration in Shaanxi. As a witness, It was also passed on to the church, is there such a thing?"

Hearing him ask this crucial question, Huang Wei shook his body, looked carefully at Master Ma, and answered cautiously: "Yes, I have been sent to ask by Mr. Xu. The main reason is that Mei Liang was involved in bribing Yuan Yuan. My lord, and next to me is Han City Lord Bo."

"Oh, so what did you say?"

Huang Wei: "Of course I know what to say, and if I don't know, I dare not talk nonsense."

Master Ma asked with a half-smile, "Then, what does Master Huang know, and what doesn't he know?"

Huang Wei: "Although Mei Liang is from Hancheng, when Huang met him, he was on official business, but he had no personal relationship. I don't know anything about him and the prison office." Speaking of this, he After a pause: "Master Ma, this case has greatly alarmed the imperial envoy. I don't know why you came to ask Huang today?"

Master Ma: "When I went to Ma Kua Street with the great master earlier, I met Huang Zhubo and it was like old friends at first sight. I already regarded you as an old friend in my heart. Just now, Master Xu Zhenxu took his hand to the Chief Envoy Si Yamen to seal it with you. All the accounts related to Ma Zhenglian, this matter has probably spread throughout the city of Xi'an. As an old friend, seeing Huang Zhubo being implicated in you, it is inevitable that I feel worried. I will come here to remind you that if someone asks about Mei Lianghe in the future You should tell the truth about Yuan Xinyun. Say what you know, and don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know. Also, are you familiar with Yuan Xinyun?”

"I'm not familiar with it. When Huang was in charge, if there were criminal cases in the local area, they would be sent to the Criminal Division. Especially last year, refugees from Shanxi went to Shaanxi to explain to Yuan Qian."

"Well said." Master Ma put down Erlang's raised legs and stood up: "If that's the case, then it's all right, let's leave."

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly added: "I believe Mr. Huang Bo, you are innocent. I heard that you are going to enter this year's provincial examination room. Take the exam well, and you might be able to get a job! At that time, you and I will have to Get so close."

"Send off Mr. Ma!" Huang Wei bowed to the ground.

When Master Ma left, Huang Wei suddenly laughed wildly, tears came out of his laughter.

A confidant looked at him suspiciously: "Third Master, what's wrong with you, Third Master?"

Huang Wei couldn't stop panting while laughing: "Gao Wen, Gao Wen, don't think that you can do anything to Lao Tzu just by standing next to a big tree like Xu Zhen. You want Hanlin editors to be the backstage, and Lao Tzu has the chief minister as the backer The mountains and rivers meet each other, and you and I have plenty of time to meet."

"Third Master, what chief envoy?"

Only then did Huang Wei realize that he had made a slip of the tongue, and scolded with a straight face: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, get out... Wait, you guys have been carrying weapons for the past few days, and you take turns on duty for me at night. Come here at night." Yes, both he and Gao Wen had great backers.Just now, what Mr. Ma said at the door was vague, but the meaning was very clear: Yuan Xinyun's big boss behind the scenes is Gao Linghan, the chief envoy of Shaanxi. Just had to go up to the front desk.

The reason is very simple. As far as Huang Wei knows, he and Mei Liang are not the only ones reaching out to Shaanxi Mazheng Yinzi. It can be said that the entire Shaanxi officialdom has its feet wet.As the highest official of a province, Gao Linghan cannot escape the responsibility.

Now, Xu Xuan clearly wants to use Han Cheng and Yuan Xinyun as a breakthrough in handling the case.Governor Gao was in a hurry, so he sent Mr. Ma to greet him and seal his mouth.He also promised that the previous promise would remain unchanged, and that he would be granted the title of Juren and an official position above the county magistrate.

"No, one county magistrate is not enough, but he must be a seventh-rank official seal official, and he must be from the affluent areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. After serving two terms, there will be gold, mountains and silver seas." Thinking through this point, Huang Wei's heart couldn't be more joyful Containment, can't help dancing.

The next thing is the fighting of big men, which has nothing to do with these little men.

Instead of worrying about what the Shaanxi Ma Zheng case will turn out to be, it is better to be wary of Gao Wenting's risky approach and kill him.

Yes, that bird man is a murderer, so beware.

After instructing his subordinates to strengthen their guard, Huang Wei said again: "Prepare the chariots and horses, my master is going to the banquet." The grand master's banquet must go, maybe we can hear some rumors and explore some problems.
