Chapter 152

A flimsy Weiji rice shop experience voucher became the last straw to bend the scribes.He collapsed to the ground in the midst of the din of people watching in surprise or booing from the three floors inside and outside.

"A misunderstanding."

Even if the scribe wanted to make Yan Heng unlucky, he knew that it would never be possible to bring him down.Now his mind is full of regrets and unbelievable, how can anyone give a catty of rice as a gift.Not to mention officials, even ordinary people, they can't afford such a shabby thing.

"Misunderstanding?" Wei Wei sneered, "If you took out other things from your purse, such as bank notes, would you let us go today?"

Even though he knew the answer in his heart, the scribe still put on a flattering smile cheekily: "Among colleagues, I'm not joking. It's just such a small matter, whoever doesn't have a brain will make a big fuss."

Look at his thick face and dark heart, Beijing officials are different.Feeling sick, Wei Wei bowed his head slightly and covered his mouth.Seeing her like this, Yan Heng handed her the handkerchief without saying a word, and patted her on the back carefully.There is neither light nor heavy strength and skillful movements, as if he has done it many times.

Usually, it will be fine if you pat lightly, but this will not work.Yan Heng patted it for a while, but she still couldn't spit it out or swallow it, her whole stomach was churning, and the breath she exhaled had a sour taste, which made her even more uncomfortable.

"No, Ah Heng, I have to stay away from here."

After she finished speaking, she waved to the side, and Dongxue came over to support her with insight.Under the gaze of the crowd, she withdrew from the path made by the yamen servant.It's strange to say that as soon as she walked out through the yamen servants, she spit it out smoothly.

Wei's mother patted her on the back distressedly: "If you are double-bodied, don't pay attention, and if you know it's a dirty thing, don't stay away."

Her voice attracted the approval of the nearby people, and the nearby tea spa owner brought her a bowl of warm water.

"Ma'am, go ahead, come in and sit down for a rest."

She nodded to thank him, rinsed her mouth with a bowl of water, and then drank another bowl to wash away the disgusting taste, Wei Wei finally felt better.Sitting on the simple bamboo stool of the tea therapy, she listened to the movement inside.

Yan Heng wasn't a bodhisattva in the first place, and Wei Wei's frail appearance this time aroused his anger even more.Facing the scribes who forcefully explained, he listened patiently even if he was allowed to give various reasons.

"I also ask Lord Yan to raise your hand high."

Seeing his patience, the scribe's eyes lit up with hope.Before the purse was opened, he was full of thoughts on how to bring down the disliked Yan Heng, and then claim credit from the people above; but now that the Dongchuang incident happened, he thought of the big family behind him.

Approaching him, Yan Heng said in a low voice: "As you said, you have seniors and juniors, and you deserve pity. This is not impossible, as long as you tell the person behind the scenes."

"This... my lord, don't embarrass me."

This side has not been coaxed well, and let him offend the other side, 1 clerks are unwilling.

Yan Heng showed a dangerous look: "Then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Although the officials in the capital are slippery, because they stay in the beautiful and beautiful capital all the year round, they live a comfortable life, and they generally prefer to be comfortable.Take the scribe in front of him as an example. Although he is nearly forty years old, he has never seen such a strong murderous spirit, and he was immediately shocked.

"This... Master Yan promises to let me go?"

"You want to negotiate terms with me?" His face showed arrogance, and now Yan Heng didn't even bother to lie: "You tell me first."

People are knives, I am fish, the scribe showed a look of defeat, and said like beans in a bamboo tube: "Actually, I don't know who ordered this. The person who ordered me was the steward of a casino in the west of the city."

Yan Heng obviously didn't believe it: "Can you listen to what the little manager has to say?"

The clerk said in a low voice: "Your Excellency may not know, whoever can afford to open a gambling shop in the capital does not have a big backer behind him. Even if he is a manager, his words are more important than us seven-rank sesame officials. What's more, My unfilial son owed a gambling debt in the casino, and I have to listen. My lord, you have seen my situation now. Not only do I have old parents in the family, but my son is so incompetent. How do people live their lives?"

The clerk almost howled out the last sentence. Seeing his runny nose and tears, the mother-in-law who was serving in the tea treatment couldn't bear it.

"Every family has its cupboard."

Do you want to hurt others when you are in trouble?Wei Wei looked around, saw many people showed sympathy, and swallowed the words.

Standing up, she walked into the crowd and stopped in front of the scribe.

"Ah Heng, he is really pitiful."

Seeing Wei Wei like this, Yan Heng felt something was wrong.But the tacit understanding between the husband and wife over the years of marriage made him unconsciously restrain the murderous aura around him, and he became more relaxed with her.

"Then according to Ah Mao's meaning?"

Raising his head and looking around, Wei Wei's eyes finally fixed on the tea room as he faced the sympathetic faces.

"I was disgusted by him just now. When I was not feeling well, I was taken care of by tea therapy. Since the owner of tea therapy said he was pitiful, today's matter is not a big deal. I was born in the capital and grew up in the capital. I also follow the people at the foot of the emperor. I also have a tolerant heart, or I would not be sent to the official today."

Who is Wei Wei?That's the official wife.Sometimes the same words are spoken by different people, and the effect is completely different.Nowadays, there are so many ordinary people queuing up to enter the city. Perhaps it is nothing to say "forgiveness" from the neighbors in the neighborhood, but now they are praised by the officials' wives, and the ordinary people who are praised are completely different.The inner three floors and the outer three floors are all honored, that's right, we are the common people at the foot of the emperor, and occasionally get a little bit of dragon spirit, so of course we have to be bolder.

"If you want me to say, this lady is really grand."

After being praised, the common people spoke to Wei Wei when they were happy.

"Arrogance, it is definitely the aura of our girls in the capital. What happened just now is not light. If he is really framed by him, this adult will definitely go to jail."

"My wife is still pregnant, what if there is a long and short life for the two of you, how will you live?"

"Hey, isn't this the girl from Mother Wei's family?" Acquaintance A recognized Wei Wei, and began to reassure her: "When she was pregnant with her, the man from the Wei family died in the northwest. It's not easy. I'm a neighbor of Wei's mother. When the child was born more than ten years ago, people always went to her house to find fault. Until last year, those people came to search for money. Fortunately, the big family that Wei's mother served took care of her. , come forward to mediate this matter. Otherwise, she will live a life as a woman, and she will not be bullied to death."

And this?Apart from emotion, the audience admired Wei Wei's mind.

"This madam is really incredible. I grew up like this, and I can be so tolerant in the face of the person who almost caused the two of them to go the same way again. I really have a big heart."

After knowing Wei's mother's experience, some people began to disagree with Wei Wei's tolerance.

Of course, there are also people who object: "Isn't this not framed? Anyway, it's not a big deal, just bypass it peacefully, and make more friends in the future."

"That's right, it's indeed a good thing to have many friends in the officialdom."

The person who recognized Wei's mother just quit. He had eaten at the Guangyuan Building when Wei Wei got married.And after being a neighbor for so many years, the generous and generous mother Wei has become half of their family.It's okay if he didn't see it, but if he saw it, then we should speak from Mother Wei's point of view.

"Making friends depends on character, doesn't it? If such a villain wants to become friends, he might stab you in the back. Besides, Mr. Yan is a fifth-rank official. If you don't see this villain just now, you have to kneel down." My greetings? There have always been lower officials who flatter Shangfeng, and there is no Shangfeng who eagerly pleases lower officials."

After some impassioned speeches left everyone speechless, Neighbor A said to Wei Wei: "Ma'am, the girls in our capital are not only tolerant but also generous. When things happen, blindly speaking kindly will only make people slap their noses." .”

This is the reason, neighbor A's words convinced everyone.They all began to feel that the villain was almost on the face just now, and if they would forgive him, it would be a bit too cowardly.

"Why should you spare him?"

"That's right, this villain will become an official again, and he may frame up some good people in the future."

The furious emotions prevailed, and Wei Wei, who was surrounded in the circle for a while, looked distressed, but his heart was already blooming with joy.

From the very beginning, she had no intention to spare the scribe. Regardless of whether the matter of slandering was done in the end, the most important crime always came from the motives caused by the evil thoughts in her heart.So what if this person failed to frame her?Could it be that he has been framed, and his conscience will find it impossible to let them go.

The reason why he planned to let him go was because of public opinion.This time the Oirats invaded, Yan Heng's reputation as Iron and Blood resounded throughout the Northwest.In Liangzhou and Youzhou, this is a good reputation that makes the local people applaud.Because the local residents have been harassed by the Oirats all the year round, almost every household has a blood feud with them.But the same thing happened in the capital. After the victory, chasing and killing thousands of prisoners of war, and burning people alive in tunnels, no matter the means of doing things or the thousands of names, these people who have always enjoyed peace and prosperity are enough to stand In terms of humanitarianism, it is condemned in the name of hurting peace.

As the saying goes: Standing and talking does not hurt your back.

This is not because she is worrying unfoundedly. From the post-war period to the present, Yan Heng has been inquiring about the news of the capital from many sources.The matter of leaking the military aircraft was temporarily put on hold due to the Chinese New Year, but it was almost a public opinion in the court to say that the methods were violent and hurtful.Before entering Beijing this time, they had at least been charged with this crime.

This will face the people of the capital, Yan Heng must not be too ruthless.Wei Wei originally planned to hold back this tone, and the future will be long, but he didn't expect the public opinion to change so quickly.

She frowned and looked at Yan Heng: "Ah Heng, what do you think should be done now?"

Yan Heng also let out a long sigh, showing his unbearable expression: "The people of Da Viet are no better than the Oirats. I can deal with the cruel and heartless Oirats, but for the people of Da Viet..."

Sighing again and again, he finally looked at the common people in embarrassment: "Why don't we do this, instead of reporting to the officials, we follow the ancient method and let him take the blame?"
