Chapter 448 God's Turn

Saying that Governor Wei is shameless, he really brought his shameless behavior to the extreme.

As soon as the case in Quanzhou was pronounced, he couldn't wait to order people to issue notices everywhere, in the name of the governor, to guarantee that the medicinal materials sold in other places were genuine and curable.

Later, he also set up a banquet in the governor's mansion to invite the Quanzhou magistrate.At the banquet, he even sighed softly: "These days, the world is going downhill, and people's hearts are not old! Today's young people are becoming more and more impatient, so they know that they are all focused on trying to grab the limelight, but they also don't like it. I don’t want to think about how much real power he has! But yes, he has such a high position and weight at such a young age, and he hasn’t been polished at the grassroots level. Rest assured!"

These words were clearly referring to Cui Pu.

When Cui Pu heard about it, he almost had three liters of rabbit blood.

"My surname is Wei, I have no end with you! No end! If you are not removed from the prefect within a year, I will not be called Cui Liu!" Cui Pu roared, gnashing his teeth.

After delivering this speech, Governor Wei also specifically called attention to Cui Pu's reaction.After learning that Cui Pu was jumping up and down in anger, he proudly trimmed the beautiful beard on his chin in the mirror, and sighed: "Let me just say, some young people are like this, and they know how to be in the limelight. Once they can't be in the limelight, He just started jumping and screaming, what's the point? I hate that people in the world only pay attention to family status and appearance, and they have been tossed around by first-class clowns for so many years. But fortunately, now that the governor is here, these clowns are also There is no room for tossing around, and the governor will not let him toss around anymore!"

"Master, you are amazing!" Mrs. Governor hurriedly praised, "Since you started showing your power, the little pawns can only close the door and jump a few times."

Governor Wei snorted. "Do you still need to say this?"

However, not long after the couple closed the door, there was another news from Shaozhou—someone captured Mr. Wei Wulang alive in Shaozhou and sent him to the official!
When I asked why, it was still because of the counterfeit drug incident.

"Ridiculous! Boring!" After hearing the news, Governor Wei scolded, "Hasn't the Quanzhou prefect already investigated this matter? It's simply that those troublemakers who have nothing to do, who can't be cured by a dose of medicine, just sit on the ground." I want to ask for a high price for compensation. The ingredients of the medicine have also been checked by old doctors for many years, and there is nothing wrong with it!"

"However, it is the Zhang family of Qujiang who filed the complaint this time. They said that a gentleman of their clan came back from other places. He heard the reputation of the medicinal materials sold by Mr. Wulang and the others, so he bought a few packs and took them home. There were varying degrees of poisoning. Fortunately, the apprentice of Mrs. Cui Zhifu was a guest at their house at that time, and when he found something wrong, he immediately rescued them and saved several lives. He inspected the dregs of the medicine on the spot and said The medicine was wrong. Then they still had a pack of undecocted medicine in their hands, and sent it to the court together with the dregs of the medicine as physical evidence. The magistrate of Qujiang did not dare to make a judgment without authorization, so he transferred the case to the prefect of Shaozhou. Along with it was a letter written by Mr. Zhang Dalang, the son of Zhang Zhongshu. After the Shaozhou prefect read it, he immediately ordered someone to issue a signature to arrest him. Now all the people who sell medicine in Shaozhou have been arrested. The pharmacy they cooperated with was also seized!" The boy who hurried back to report the news told the matter in detail.

No wonder the prefect of Shaozhou didn't dare to be careless, it turned out that Zhang Jiuling's son came forward!
Zhang Jiuling is the pride of the entire Lingnan, and that is even more the pride of Shaozhou.Zhang Dalang, as the head of the family, wrote a letter requesting the government to investigate clearly when something happened to a child of the Zhang family. This is also human nature.But the prefect of Shaozhou accepted his letter, so he had to do his best to investigate it!
It is very likely that this matter will end with the Zhang family winning the lawsuit.After all, how could the prefect of Shaozhou tarnish Shaozhou's proud reputation?

As for the friendship between Mr. Zhang Dalang and Cui Pu, Governor Wei knew about it.Didn't he rush over to take office last time when Cui Pu was going to pay homage to Zhang Jiuling?
So now, as soon as the incident happened, he keenly concluded that everything must have been arranged by Cui Pu!

"Zhuzi is rampant! In this matter, he has been given all the explanations that should be given to him. What is he going to do? The governor has given him enough face, and he has not pursued him for false accusations. It is good for him, but he still has a relationship with a mad dog. Does he really think that the governor is easy to bully?" Wei Governor was angry and cursed, and finally felt better, and waved, "Come on, prepare a pen and paper. Write a letter to the prefect of Shaozhou!"

Mr. Zhang Dalang will put pressure on others, won't he?Could it be that his assassination was for nothing?As long as he asks him to handle it impartially, he doesn't believe that the governor of Shaozhou dares to bias the surname Zhang arbitrarily!
A letter was written in a flash, and when the ink was dry, he packed the letter and ordered someone to send it out.

Mrs. Wei Shishi's complexion is not very good now.

"Master, is this feasible? I heard that the prefect of Shaozhou is a student of Zhang Zhongshu. He was funded by Zhang Zhongshu when he went to Chang'an to catch the exam. He has also benefited the Zhang family over the years. Now that the Zhang family has come forward, he is indispensable." It is to stand on the side of the Zhang family."

"He dares!" Wei Shishi snorted coldly, "So what if the Zhang family is kind to him? With a little kindness of funding, can he judge the case at will regardless of the facts? I wrote to him just to ask him to deal with it fairly. , but didn’t say anything else. If he ignores my warning, then don’t blame me for being rude to him! This Shaozhou is also under my rule!”

Mrs. Welsh wanted to say something more.But Governor Wei waved his hand directly: "Since there is nothing wrong with Quanzhou, Shaozhou will definitely be fine. Let them dance wildly first, anyway, the more fun they dance now, the more embarrassing they will be when they turn around. Now, I I need to write another letter to the crown prince, telling him to take a good look at how messy Lingnan is!"

A few days after his letter was sent, the prefect of Shaozhou replied.Seeing that the Shaozhou magistrate in the letter swore to God that he would handle the case impartially and never take sides, he put the letter aside in peace of mind and hummed a little song proudly.

However, before he had time to be complacent, the case in Shaozhou was judged - Mr. Wei Wulang was guilty!The medicine is really fake!Even the officials found piles and piles of fake medicines in the pharmacies they cooperated with, and these were all going to be packed and sold to other common people!
In this case, the Zhang family won.

Moreover, the trial of the case was the same as that in Quanzhou, it was a public trial.All the medicinal materials are identified by famous local doctors in Shaozhou.The pharmacy was even sealed up on the spot and inspected on the spot, without giving any party time to cheat.

Look at this result, and compare it with the results of the trial in Quanzhou a few days ago... This matter is intriguing.

As soon as the news came out, Governor Wei was stunned.Immediately, he was furious: "They are lawless! A mere prefect of Shaozhou dares to do things for personal gain? The governor wants to inform the prince about this and ask him to stand up and uphold justice! By the way, we must Inform the members of the Li clan in Chang'an and let them go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to sue. I don't believe that when things get to Chang'an, they can wantonly smear others and mess up the trial results!"

Mrs. Wei Cishi came from the Li family in Guannei.

Seeing that Governor Wei was about to write a letter again, she hurriedly rushed over to hold his hand: "Master, let's say goodbye now! Wait...wait."

"What are you waiting for? Now that things have come to this point, it is clear that Cui Liu and Zhang Da, together with the prefect of Shaozhou, are ruining my reputation! This matter must be clarified as soon as possible and the wind direction reversed. The longer it takes, the more unfavorable the rumors will spread to me, and the more people in Chang'an will take the opportunity to slander me and hinder my return to Chang'an!"

As long as there is even a little thing that will damage his reputation, Governor Wei will be extremely nervous.What's more, even Mr. Wei Wulang was captured alive in Shaozhou?
As soon as the matter came out, he was worried that some political opponents would seize the matter and attack him.Now that the case in Shaozhou was finalized, he became even more anxious, and couldn't wait any longer.

He must write!
However, Mrs. Wei Governor just held his hand firmly.

"What are you doing? Hurry up and let go!" Governor Wei was about to attack her.

Mrs. Wei Shishi finally couldn't bear it anymore, she quickly knelt on the ground, crying and said: "Master, please save my brother! They are all deceived by others. They are actually doing things for the people sincerely. Really !"

Snapped!
Wei Jieshi dropped the brush in his hand on the ground, and the ink on the tip of the pen splashed everywhere, staining his newly changed robe without him noticing.

"You... what did you say?"

As for the government office, although they already knew what the verdict of the Shaozhou magistrate would be.However, when the matter was completely settled, Cui Pu was still greatly relieved.

"It's cool! It can be regarded as a turnaround for us!" He stretched his waist and said with a smile on his face.

Now he is happy. Who was it that put on a sour face all day long, wishing he could sneak into a dark and damp corner for the villain Wei Shiza?

Mu Jiaojiao was speechless.

"This is just the beginning. Governor Wei will definitely fight back," she said.

"Come on, come on, who is afraid of him? It's as if I have no backup." Cui Pu said disdainfully, "I'm not afraid of him fighting back, but I'm afraid he won't fight back! There will be more left behind. At that time, it will be convenient for me to collect all the evidence and knock him down in one fell swoop!"

That's true.

Governor Wei was silent for a few days, and then became arrogant again.He won the lawsuit in Quanzhou, and he didn't understand the principle of accepting it as soon as he saw it. Instead, he kept finding fault with Cui Pu, showing his superiority as the governor everywhere, pretending that no one knew that the case was due to his intervention Just like the result I got.

When he arrived in Shaozhou, he still wanted to do the same, but he didn't expect that although Zhang Jiuling was gone, the Zhang family's influence in Shaozhou had never been weakened.Hearing that something happened to Zhang's family, the prefect of Shaozhou almost peed his pants, so when the case came to him, he would naturally take it seriously.

Under the leadership of Zhang Jiuling, the Zhang family has always been self-denying and respectful, and has never done anything that favors personal gains.Although there was chaos for a while under the leadership of Mr. Zhang Er, in the past few months, he was rectified by Mr. Zhang Dalang.

On the contrary, the letter sent by Governor Wei is full of papers emphasizing that the law must be enforced impartially and that no villain should be allowed to take advantage of it.But it seems that there is always a sense of coercion, as if you do not follow his wishes, it is not fair to enforce the law!
Just for this letter, once it is released, it will be enough for him to drink a pot.

However, he firmly believed that Governor Wei would not stop there.People never feel that they are wrong, and if they are wrong, it is the fault of others.Just like this incident, he must think that he and Mr. Zhang Dalang joined forces to bully them.

That's right, he just joined forces with Mr. Zhang Dalang, so what?

At the critical moment, he could find an ally, but he couldn't find a single partner, so he could only keep writing letters to the prince in Chang'an asking for help, and was ignored by the prince all the time. This is enough to show the character of the two people.

However, for the next few days, Governor Wei did not take any action.The governor's mansion even closed its doors tightly, announcing to the outside world that Governor Wei was ill and it was inconvenient to see visitors.

What could he be sick of?When he came out to speak ill of Cui Pu last time, didn't he still blushed and cheered up?Sick so soon?Cui Pu beat him to death and didn't believe it.

He really didn't have to believe it.Because... Immediately afterwards, a post was sent from the governor's residence, and it turned out that Governor Wei invited him out for tea!
Holding this post, Cui Pu was stunned for a while.

"What trick is this old fellow playing?"
