204, Chapter 204

I don't know why, when he heard Qin Fang say this, the emperor suddenly wanted to laugh. He remembered that Qin Fang was a verbose person. Only he and Du Ke had seen this kind of verbosity. If all the ministers could also see it, then it should be Very interesting. Suddenly, the emperor had an idea. Everyone should bear some suffering together.

When the minister saw Qin Fang saying this, he thought Qin Fang was afraid. He said in a cold voice: "General Qin, I heard the news today that General Qin connived at his servant's son-in-law to bully others. I wonder if this is so true?"

When Qin Fang heard this, he was very confused: "I wonder if this gentleman is asking about the son-in-law of the servant in my family? Some of the servants in my family have daughters, some do not, and the daughters who have daughters are not married yet. So I really don’t know which servant in my family has a son-in-law, and I would like to ask this gentleman to give me some advice.”

"You..." How could he say this? "Regardless of which servant it is, shouldn't General Qin explain this matter?"

Qin Fang became even more innocent: "I don't even know the love. Please tell me, sir, how should I explain it? But the general seems to understand what you mean, so why don't you explain it to me?" "

"you……"

"General Qin, I also heard about this incident. I also heard that it happened in Laiwang County. For this reason, I came to the magistrate of Laiwang County to ask for advice, but General Qin avoided seeing him. Could it be that General Qin had a guilty conscience? "

Qin Fang was even more puzzled: "My lord, do you know when this happened?"

The adult said: "Six days ago."

When Qin Fang heard this, he smiled and said: "It turns out that it was six days ago. That was not because the general was avoiding seeing him. Six days ago, the general was not in Yunxiang County, but in the palace. Speaking of which, it was not I know who your lord has listened to the rumor. That person is really disgusting. The general is not in Yunxiang County, but he still spreads the rumor and avoids it. Please make it clear, sir, what is the crime for this official who spreads the rumor? "

The adult: "..." Who knows that Qin Fang is not in Yunxiang County? So it doesn’t make sense to put on airs and avoid showing up?

However, suddenly, someone spoke: "General Qin, as a garrison in Yunxiang County, is not allowed to leave the capital easily. It is a serious crime to leave the county in a garrison."

"This..." Qin let go and faced the emperor.

But the emperor did not explain anything to him, and still looked at him.

The minister continued: "I don't know if General Qin left Yunxiang County, but did he have an order from the emperor?"

Qin Fang said honestly: "No."

When Qin Fang said no, the ministers who had been silent before began to speak.

"Your Majesty, Qin Fang, as a city guard, left the county without permission. Please ask your Majesty to punish him."

"Your Majesty, as a city guard, Qin Fang actually left the county without permission. He was ignoring the people in the city."

"emperor……"

Qin Fang looked at their formation and knew that these people wanted to accuse them, or in other words, wanted to kill himself? When Qin Fang first entered the court, he saw this situation for the first time, and finally understood the truth. These people wanted to kill people without asking for any reason. They just wanted to bully people when they were caught.

Qin Fang said: "Although I left the county privately, I have something to do with the emperor."

"Oh? I wonder what General Qin wants? Is it not the great love that deserves General Qin to leave the county privately?"

"That is, if the guards say they want to leave the county, then where is the national law?"

"So, what else do we need to do with the national law?"

"good……"

Every official agreed.

Qin Fang said: "But I can't tell you my love for the emperor. The emperor gave me a secret order. If I tell you, I will be guilty of deceiving the emperor. Ministers, do you really want to know? ?”

The Jinluan Palace, which was originally quite lively, suddenly fell silent. They were accusing Qin Fang one by one, but Qin Fang had a secret order on him. How dare they know what the secret order was?

Wei Hong has remained silent. From the moment Qin Fang appeared, he knew there was no hope. Qin Fang would appear in the capital, and it was the emperor who sent him to see him, which only meant that the emperor had already seen him. Putting aside these, as long as Qin Fang is not in Yunxiang County, then their hope of stopping Qin Fang's official position is gone.

Originally, Qin Fang himself was not around, and other people's defenses were pale. The imperial court sent someone to investigate the matter, and it would drag on for a while. However, Yunxiang County had ores and could not be left without defense, so they found someone to replace Qin Fang. put. Then when Qin Fang's situation becomes clear and he is transferred, the matter will be over.

But now, Qin Fang appears in the Jinluan Palace, so there is no hope for this matter. Therefore, Wei Hong did not speak out.

Of course, at first, he had no intention of saying anything. If he opens his mouth, it will definitely arouse the emperor's suspicion.

Then, the emperor knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, I have a grievance against you. Please redress my grievances."

The emperor watched the show for a while and wrote down all the people who targeted Qin Fang. He asked, "What are the grievances?"

Qin Fang said: "The ministers just heard about it and spread rumors about Wei Chen in front of the emperor. They didn't ask Wei Chen the reason at all. Is it because Wei Chen's official position is too small, so they can let you spread rumors? Moreover, they don't even ask. Are they willing to reveal the source of the information? Are they helping to spread rumors about Wei Chen and frame the imperial officials? So, please ask the Emperor to make the decision for Wei Chen."

"Your Majesty, I just heard about it and forgot who said it."

"Your Majesty, I have heard people talk about it occasionally."

"emperor……"

"Report..." Suddenly, a voice sounded outside.

Manager Chi walked down the steps and walked to the door: "What's the matter? Didn't you see the emperor attending the morning court?"

Guard: "Manager Chi, someone outside the palace is carrying a nine-foot-tall statue to see the emperor. That statue is a portrait of the emperor."

Manager Chi: "What? How do you reply? Who is so bold?"

Guard: "This is Master Du‌. Master Du‌ said that this is a portrait carved by the people of Yunxiang County for the emperor, so?"

Mr. Du‌? Isn’t he Yunxiang County? Back? And it was a portrait carved for the emperor by the people of Yunxiang County? What's going on? Manager Chi had a gut feeling that this matter was related to the General's Mansion, so he came to the emperor: "Your Majesty..." Manager Chi said the matter softly.

The emperor raised his eyebrows, very surprised. The portrait carved for him by the people of Yunxiang County? interesting. "Xuandu Xingran comes to see you."

Manager Chi: "Xuandu Xingran comes to see you."

All the ministers looked at each other.

"Who is this Du Xingran?"

"Why did you suddenly see a person named Du Xingran appear again?"

Mr. Du‌ is a small person, so it is normal for the ministers present not to recognize him. However, Wei Hong knew him. He and Du Ke were old acquaintances. Wei Wu and Du Xingran also often played together, so how could he not know Du Xingran? Wei Hong came out: "Your Majesty, I don't know why the Emperor suddenly announced that Young Master Du has paid an audience? But what big thing happened?"

Those who didn't know Du Xingran, when they heard Wei Hong mentioning the reputation of Young Master Du ‌, some thought in hindsight that the one who could be called Young Master Du ‌ in the capital was naturally the son of Du Shilang's family, but... …What does this young master from Shilang Du’s family do?

Everyone is still confused.

The Emperor: "I don't know either. Wei Aiqing will just watch."

After a while, Du Xingran came, covered in dust. However, Du Xingran did not come by himself, but led someone to carry the statue to the entrance of the Jinluan Palace, so all the ministers in the Jinluan Palace saw the statue. The nine-foot-tall statue caught everyone's attention. Some even looked up. Although they didn't look exactly alike, the statue still had a three-thirds resemblance to the same emperor. Moreover, the statue was wearing tattered clothes, which were all patched. What's going on?

Wei Hong said: "Du ‌, what are you doing? How did you get rid of this emperor's statue and these tattered and patched clothes?"

Du Xingran said: "Master Wei, don't be impatient." After saying that, he first gave the emperor a gift and said, "The humble minister Du Xingran is joining the emperor."

The emperor raised his hand to signal him to get up, pointed to the statue and asked, "What's going on?" You know, if you carve the emperor's statue at will, you will be beheaded if you are not careful.

Du Xingran said: "Your Majesty, this is the portrait of the Emperor carved by more than a dozen carvers in Yunxiang County. It represents the wishes of tens of thousands of people in Yunxiang County. The clothes on this portrait are not patches, but thousands of pieces of clothing. Every day A piece of cloth came from an old family, and Mr. Bingyun personally sewed the cloth into thousands of clothes for the portraits to wear. "

The emperor stood up, then got off the dragon chair, and walked step by step to the statue. Although he didn't know what happened, when he heard Du Xingran say that these fully patched clothes were worth ten thousand yuan, he still felt in his heart. I was very touched. What does it mean that the people gave him thousands of clothes? It's what his heart desires. He stretched out his hand and touched the robe on the portrait, and looked at the tall portrait. At this moment, the more he looked at it, the more similar it seemed to him. The emperor turned around and said, "How did you respond specifically? Please tell me in detail."

Wei Hong sighed, he knew that this time, there was nothing he could do against Qin Fang. When Du Xingran said that these were the portraits and clothes carved by the people of Yunxiang County for the emperor, he knew that all the drama was gone. But what does this ten thousand clothes mean?

Du Xingran said: "Back to the emperor, that day, Wei Chen sent a family letter to Yunxiang County for Qin Fang, and saw that the road out of Yunxiang County was very lively, with many people working on the road. Wei Chen was curious, so he went After asking, I found out that the people in Yunxiang County were building roads.”

The emperor was shocked: "Building roads?" Building roads requires a lot of money. "Where do they get the money?"

Du Xingran said: "It's the emperor's money. The emperor waived the franchise fee for the Qin family's Huangliang franchisee, so the Qin family used the county agent's agency fee and the first month's profit of the Huangliang factory to build roads. Bingyun Xiangjun said that the emperor's kindness was so great that he waived the franchise fee for the Qin family's Huangliang franchisee. The Qin family could not help but be grateful. Therefore, in addition to the agency fees of the county agent, the first year's profit of the Huangliang factory was also used to build roads. .

Moreover, that road was named Huangliang Road, and a monument was erected on Huangliang Road. The monument was named Huangliang Monument. On the monument was engraved a eulogy praising the emperor's wisdom and wisdom. The eulogy on the monument was thought by the common people and was written by the magistrate of Yunxiang County. Yes, the carver was a carver from Yunxiang County. The common people said that they are grateful to the Emperor for the Imperial Grain franchise plan, which has given the potatoes and sweet potatoes grown by the common people a place to go and increased their income..."
