Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1688 Gathering Evidence
Just after Fang Jun entertained the Prince and the King of Wu in private, a piece of memorial was sent from Yushitai to Menxia Province, and Chu Suiliang, the servant of Huangmen, directly presented it to the emperor...

"Your Majesty, I just read the memorial in Menxia Province and found a memorial to impeach Fang Jun, the minister of the Ministry of War, for robbing civilian girls."

Chu Suiliang entered the Dragon Hall lightly, with a smile on his face when he found something interesting.

His Majesty Li Er, who was dealing with official documents, put down the brush in his hand in astonishment, took it over and flipped through the memorial, wondering: "Is there such a thing?"

Looking closely, the memorial records that Fang Jun was arrogant and domineering among the people, even relying on his identity to force a married girl into the mansion, and act recklessly...

Chu Suiliang laughed and said: "It is the responsibility of the censor, there are rumors about things, maybe there are rumors, but Fang Shilang is not like this, there must be someone maliciously slandering."

His Majesty Li Er glanced at Chu Suiliang, nodded and said, "It makes sense, are these supervisory censors idle and free to do anything? Hearing a little gossip, he directly wrote a letter of impeachment. Do you really think that I have nothing to do all day long? Don't worry about it." , but this supervisory censor, what is his name..." Flipping through the memorabilia, looking at the inscription, he continued: "The officials under the order ordered him to be diligent and pragmatic, and not to catch wind and shadows like this."

"Here."

Chu Suiliang responded, rolled his eyes, and said again: "It's just that since there is a censor who dares to speak out so bluntly, there must be some rumors among the people, which are quite convincing... Fang Shilang has different identities and official positions. The noble titles are all well-known, such rumors not only damage his own reputation, but also make the court passive, causing misunderstandings among the uninformed officials and the people... Or, we should send another official to conduct a secret investigation to see if it is true?"

His Majesty Li Er threw the memorial on the table, took a sip of the tea beside him.

Mu Ai is a young man with a vigorous blood, and he is abstaining from sex. It is understandable that he likes female pornography.He didn't think that Fang Jun would act recklessly to rob civilian women. Even if Fang Jun had this intention, wouldn't he be afraid that his old man, Fang Xuanling, would break his leg?As long as it's not a robbery, it's fine.

As an old father-in-law, of course he felt a little uncomfortable about this matter, but His Majesty Li Er didn't think it was a big deal. He himself is a person in this way, and he has done more than most men in the world...

Of course, if Princess Gao Yang came back to the palace crying and complained, that would be a different matter.

Now that Princess Gaoyang hasn't made a fuss, how can others control her?

So His Majesty Li Er just passed this matter in his mind, didn't think it was a big deal, and didn't even get distracted, even if Fang Jun really misbehaved, just catch him and give him a good meal, so he said casually: " Okay, let's check it out."

This matter passed in his mind, but he didn't care that his thinking seemed to be guided unintentionally...

Chu Suiliang didn't show any expression on his face, and said: "Here! My minister understands it."

His Majesty Li Er doesn't pay attention to Fang Jun's nonsense. Now he puts all his experience on the Eastern Expedition. The nationwide allocation of food, grass, weapons, and requisition of civilian utensils requires huge coordination and consumes a lot of energy. The yamen manages a share by itself, and in the end it is up to the emperor to decide.

When Chu Suiliang saw His Majesty Li Er buried his head on the desk again, he lightly refilled the teacup on the emperor's desk, and then bowed and exited the hall.

Back at Menxia Province, Chu Suiliang called a confidant, Shu Lingshi, and whispered something in a low voice. Shu Lingshi nodded repeatedly. Shi Tai went.

*****
When Le Yanwei got the message from Chu Suiliang, he couldn't help but be overjoyed immediately. He summoned a few confidants and went to the Wannian County Yamen to meet Li Yifu. He explained his purpose and asked him to follow him with the Yamen servants, and went to Lishan Farm to search for Fang Junzhi. Evidence".

Li Yifu groaned and remained silent, rather embarrassed.

This time, Le Yanwei acted under the orders of Jiangnan and Guanlong. Li Yifu speculated on the King of Jin, but the King of Jin was imprisoned, so he became the lackey of the Guanlong Group as a matter of course, and it was impossible to refute Le Yanwei's request .But he did not forget Fang Jun's "gracious gift of clothes" at the beginning. At this time, he and Le Yanwei conspired against Fang Jun. Wouldn't he become an ungrateful person if it spread?
Le Yanwei was quite upset, and scolded: "As the magistrate of Wannian County, how can you disregard the law because of personal kindness?"

Li Yifu's idea was very righteous, he was resolutely unwilling to go, and only agreed to send people to follow Le Yanwei.

The reason for being so resolute is that one is afraid of being scolded as "ungrateful" if it is spread out, and the other is because with his understanding of Fang Jun, how could he easily fall into the trap of others?Don't try to plot against Fang Jun, but instead suffer revenge...

Le Yanwei had no choice but to take people to Lishan Farm by himself.

The supervisory censor has the right to hear about things, pick up all officials to monitor illegal activities, but if you want to convict an official, you still need solid evidence. Le Yanwei's trip is to search for Fang Jun's "robbery of a civilian girl" evidence of...

He changed into casual clothes with his people, walked cautiously all the way to the farm, and went straight to the steamed stuffed bun shop.

"This officer is the supervisor of the Yushitai. Now I am ordered by the emperor to investigate the case of Fang Junqiang's robbery of a civilian girl. All questions must be answered truthfully. If there are lies, they will be severely punished!"

Le Yanwei put on his official authority and looked upright.

"Yes, yes, you can ask me, the grassroots dare not speak nonsense."

The fat proprietress and her husband ignored it, and quickly lowered their heads, looking terrified.

"I want to ask you, did your daughter get robbed?" Le Yanwei cut to the point and went straight to the point. For such lowly people, don't use any tactics at all. With the emperor's order, you can't scare you to death!
The fat proprietress hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "This...isn't considered a forced robbery, after all, it was given as a bride price..."

Le Yanwei said: "Is there a betrothal gift? Bring it to me to have a look."

"Here."

The boss hurried back to the back room, followed by two yamen servants, and not long after, he brought out a rattan box and put it in the middle of the room. Le Yanwei stepped forward to open it, and saw two bolts of silk, ten coins wrapped in red cloth, and zero coins inside. There are seven or eight kinds of congratulatory gifts.

For ordinary people, these betrothal gifts are quite generous, but who is Fang Jun?The concubine of the richest man in the Tang Dynasty only offered such a small gift, which could make the world laugh out loud.

Le Yanwei was cautious, and confirmed: "These betrothal gifts are really given by Fang Jun?"

The fat proprietress nodded vigorously: "Fang Erlang personally brought it."

Le Yanwei felt at ease, and asked, "Don't you think it's too little? That Fang Jun has billions of dollars in wealth, so such a small gift is simply ridiculous."

The fat proprietress said: "How dare you feel less? What kind of nobleman is Fang Erlang, who condescends to give the gift in person, and if you think it is less, then it is shameless? The whole family of Caomin has benefited from Fang Erlang. Today, even if it is our life, we have to give it, let alone a girl?"

Le Yanwei was very satisfied, and thought to himself, Fang Jun, you are really arrogant and domineering, you are stingy with a little gift when you rob someone's daughter?Giving more can also show that you are married, just give this little, it is no different from snatching a marriage!
He stared at the two couples, and asked in a deep voice: "If Dali Temple interrogates this case tomorrow, you two have to tell the truth, just repeat what you just said."

The fat proprietress and his wife were taken aback: "Dali Temple? For God's sake, let's not go."

Le Yanwei said: "If you don't go, you have to go, Fang Jun robbed your daughter, don't you want to ask His Majesty to uphold justice and rescue your daughter from the dragon's pond and tiger's lair?"

The two couples shook their heads like rattles, and said in unison: "No, we don't want anything! You don't know what kind of person Fang Erlang is, so why don't we know? It's absolutely impossible for us to do this. If you just said it, you will be ashamed." We didn't say anything, and we dare not sue Fang Erlang."

It seemed that the couple were completely intimidated by Fang Jun's despotic power, probably because they were afraid of Fang Jun's retaliation afterwards, so they resolutely refused to go to Dali Temple to file a complaint.

Le Yanwei threatened: "It's up to you, Fang Jun knows that he broke the law and committed a crime, and if you don't report it, you will be guilty of the same crime as Fang Jun. Fang Jun is a marquis, and the crime is just exile. As a commoner, you are going to have your entire family slaughtered!"

"Copy, copy... copy and chop all over the house?!"

The couple were so frightened that their legs were shaking...

Seeing this, Le Yanwei couldn't help but feel very proud, as long as this matter is done properly, his official position will definitely be promoted, from a sixth-rank servant Yushi dare not think, from a seventh-rank master book should be fine, right?Even if it's not good, you can also send it to the local government as an official. Although the royal censor is not necessary, it is rich in oil and water...

Immediately, Le Yanwei took the fat proprietress and his wife back to Yushitai in secret, and then sued Fang Jun in the name of Yushitai for robbing women and running rampant in the village, waiting for Dali Temple to accept the trial.
