Chapter 1840: The Eccentric Emperor
When Zhu Gaochi passed away, some people said that Zhu Zhanji would restrict Fang Xing, suppress him temporarily, and stabilize the government.
This is a judgment from the perspective of Fang Xing's enemies all over the world.
Only by suppressing Fang Xing, can the emperor and his courtiers work together, instead of having a shit-stirring stick in the middle every day, filling the court with hostility.
But when Fang Xing led the Firearms Guards into the city for a military parade when Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne, Zhu Zhanji personally shattered the speculation of the outside world bit by bit.
Xing Hebo is still... no, it is a step forward!
He and the emperor are like two chess players, one inside and one outside, gradually starting to make arrangements.
This is a shit-stirring stick that has survived three dynasties!
There is no more fortunate subject than him, so those people are staring at him, trying to find loopholes in his body, and then attack like a musket array.
Just when Fang Xing brought Zhu Quan into the city, those who had already received news from the south were gearing up to give Fang Xing a hard blow.
You turned against the feudal lord, this is extremely domineering!
But Zhu Zhanji immediately slapped these people with the confinement of Zhu Quan, and then news came from the court that all the bigwigs agreed with this matter.
Why is this man so lucky? Actually found evidence that Zhu Quan secretly collected iron materials.
Just when everyone put away those thoughts resentfully, a piece of news stunned them like thunder.
——Fang Xing beat Lu Zhen to death!
...
"Teacher, after the news came out, the street where the Lu family is located was blocked by carriages and people, all of them were people going to pay their respects."
When Ma Su got the news, he asked for leave and returned to Fangjiazhuang.
"Panic?"
Wuyou was playing with Muhua in the front yard. Under the big tree, she raised her head and pointed at it, shouting, wanting to climb up.
Ma Su shook his head and said, "Teacher, Lu Zhen is not worth your shot, so this must be a false accusation."
"After His Majesty ascended the throne, Lu Zhen's influence has actually been declining.
Judging from his failure to seek an official position for Lu Xiong, His Majesty will definitely let him retire in less than two years, so you don't need to make a move. "
"You've improved a lot."
Fang Xing said comfortably: "Why should I kill Lu Zhen? It's just a slap. If this can kill people, the soldiers in the army will have to tie their hands and feet in the future, let alone any drills."
"Father! Climb a tree! Climb a tree!"
Wuyou turned around and waved in front of him, his little face was flushed, Ma Su thought of his son Ma Yan when he saw it, and couldn't help smiling.
Fang Xing went over to hug Wuyou, then lifted her to the tree trunk, letting her hold the branches with her hands.
"Father let go! Let go!"
Wuyou happily said: "Father, put it away quickly..."
Jia Quan entered the front yard, and what he saw was a picture of father and daughter playing. He couldn't bear to interrupt, so he stood on the sidelines and watched.
Fang Xing rested his hands on Wuyou's armpits, nervously looking at her little hands.
"Dad, dad..."
Wuyou gradually lost her grip on the branches, she didn't panic, she knew that her father would be able to protect her well, so she loosened her hands.
"Hahahaha! I've caught you troublemaker!"
Fang Xing followed Wuyou, let her sit on his right shoulder, turned around and saw Jia Quan.
"Your elder brother and the others will be back soon. Don't worry, remember to supervise them washing their hands."
Fang Xing put Wuyou down, then leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, and said, "Father is going out for a while, come back and bring something delicious for Wuyou."
Wuyou glanced at Jia Quan, frowned and said, "Father, he is so fierce."
Fang Xing smiled, then walked over and said, "Let's go."
For Jia Quan to come here, it must be that the court and the central government are already discussing Lu Zhen's case. As a party involved, it is inappropriate for Fang Xing to go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice without evidence, so he can only argue in court.
When the two left Fangjiazhuang, Jia Quan couldn't help asking curiously: "Uncle, what kind of stunt is this?"
"Punish your heart!"
...
When Fang woke up, the court was still dealing with political affairs. Seeing him coming in, everyone watched silently.
Zhu Zhanji went through the procedure helplessly, "Xing Hebo, someone testified that you beat Lu Zhen yesterday, is this true?"
Fang Xing smiled wryly, "The fake ones can no longer be fake."
Jin Chun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, came out of the class and asked, "Uncle Xinghe, why did you meet Lu Zhen yesterday? Did you make a move?"
This is the procedure, Fang Xing didn't feel humiliated, he said: "After leaving the palace yesterday, I was waiting to be a noodle maker at the noodle booth, Lu Zhen touched me from behind and patted me, and then said it was a change. Ri invited me to drink... very kind, I was a little overwhelmed and thought he was crazy."
As a noodle buyer, everyone knows that Fang Xing has three children in his family, and when he goes out and sees things the children like, most parents will buy them back home if they are able.
As for Lu Zhen's kindness...everyone knows about it.
Xia Yuanji came out of the shift and said: "Lv Zhen has been kind to everyone these days. Although he doesn't say anything about the dead, but this matter involves Xing Hebo's innocence, I will say it. This is to give Lu Xiong As for his official position, he was afraid of being blocked by others, so he changed his course... Even the official was a little dazed."
All the ministers nodded, they were a little uncomfortable with Lu Zhen's kindness recently.
Fang Xing nodded, thanked Xia Yuanji, and then said: "I agreed. Although I had some grievances with him, I didn't reach out to hit the smiling face. At that time, I smelled alcohol on his body, so I patted him on the shoulder , As a result, he drank too much and fell limp to the ground, and I was the one who helped him up in the end."
"Just a slap?"
Jin Chun looked at Fang Xing's hands and felt that they were not hands that could slap someone to death.
"Of course, I saw a lot of people at that time."
Jin Chun was confused and said: "Xinghe Bo, what about the end?"
"Finally?" Fang Xing thought for a while and said, "In the end he patted his butt and left. Before he left, he said again that he would buy me a drink another day."
Jin Chun stared into Fang Xing's eyes and asked, "That's all?"
Fang Xing glared at him and said: "I don't get along with him, and I feel that I can barely agree to drink with him. I feel like I can't swim with him."
Jin Chun glanced at Fang Xing, and said calmly: "Uncle Xinghe, the Ministry of Justice has already searched for the person who was present yesterday, and has already found the man who made dough, but he said that he was working as a dough maker at that time, so he didn't pay attention. .”
Fang Xing said calmly: "After Lu Zhen left, I immediately took the lead and asked him to be my face first. He should remember this, right?"
Jin Chun nodded and said: "But it's not enough, you are Xing Hebo, they are ordinary people..."
"Are you saying I'm going to kill someone?"
Fang Xing said dumbfoundedly: "If I want to kill Lu Zhen, do I have to do it in the street?"
Jin Chun nodded and said: "Yes, but it is also possible to make mistakes."
Well, this guy looked at the problem from the perspective of handling the case. Fang Xing didn't know what to do, so he said: "At the time, I saw at least 20 people at the scene, and it will be clear when I find a few."
Jin Chun carefully looked into Fang Xing's eyes, but found no guilt or avoidance. He nodded and said, "At present, this is the only way to go."
Turning around, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I request Jubaoshan Guard not to leave camp for a few days."
This was because he was worried that Fang Xing would mobilize the scouts from Jubao Mountain Guard to kill the witnesses.
Fang Xing didn't want to embarrass Zhu Zhanji, so he said, "Your Majesty, the weather is hot, and there should be no holidays in the camp recently."
Zhu Zhanji nodded, and said: "Go and find out, the black ones can't be white, and the white ones... can't be black. If they are framed, then let them pay the price."
The emperor only said that those who framed him will pay the price, but he was trying to make Fang Xing clear.
This is still trustworthy!
The ministers were complicated, and Jin Chun had already resigned. He wanted to settle the case before Jin Yiwei and Dongchang people came to get involved, otherwise the Criminal Department would lose face.
