Just as Zhang Mo and Chen Hong laughed while stroking their palms, Lu Bing was also full of doubts, but because he had just entered Beijing and the situation was unclear, he was puzzled.
As soon as I walked out of the palace gate, I saw a sedan chair stopped outside the palace gate, the top of the sedan chair was silver, the sedan chair cover and the sedan chair were soap-colored, and four bearers stood aside. Standing in front of the sedan, Lu Bing looked familiar, and after a careful look, he recognized Fonda.
This Fangda was the survivor who was assassinated by the East Factory killer in Marseille and was rescued by Jin Yiwei. He was the disciple of Fang Xianhu, the official secretary.
Looking at the appearance and specifications of the sedan chair, you can only sit on the sedan chair with the third rank and above. It must be Fang Xianfu who is sitting in the sedan chair.
When Fang Da saw Lu Bing come out, he bowed his waist and whispered a few words to the people in the sedan chair, and greeted him with a smile.
"Master Lu! The villain is polite here!" Fang Da nodded and bowed to meet him, arching his hands.
"Fonda, right? Something?" Lu Bing also smiled.
"My adults have been waiting for Master Lu for a long time." Fang Da said with a smile.
"Then there is Mr. Labor." Lu Bing replied, but he thought in his heart that there are so many waiting for himself today. While thinking, smiled and came to the sedan chair, and said, "Xiaguan Jinyiwei Qianhu Lu Bing, I have seen Master Fang!"
After hearing Lu Bing’s voice, there was a hearty laughter from the sedan chair. Fang Xianfu, wearing a red bullfighting robe, lifted the sedan curtain and walked down with a big laugh. , This official is here to thank Lu Qianhu! He also asked Lu Qianhu to show his face and have a casual meal together?"
Lu Bing thought to himself, if you really think I'm too polite, you won't wait for me to bow before coming down.
In the final analysis, Fang Xianfu is an official secretary, a senior official of the second rank, and a well-deserved literary giant. For Lu Bing, a small military officer of five ranks and thousand households, he naturally has to hold some arrogance.
I am afraid that the virtues of these civil officials in the Ming Dynasty cannot be changed. Not to mention a second-rank senior, just a small talent, and do not put ordinary military officers in the eyes. This civil servant of the Ming Dynasty is really arrogant to a certain level. Up.
Lu Bing smiled bitterly in his heart and shook his head. He didn't want to do what he thought. He just greeted Fang Xianfu and walked to a restaurant not far away.
In this Ming Dynasty, the emperor and the literati ruled the world together with culture. Not to mention that he was a small five-rank thousand household official, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, and he was often choked by the civil officials.
During the reign of Emperor Zhengde, the first assistant Yang Tinghe, who was also the father of Yang Shen, who was so talented, had quarreled face-to-face with Emperor Zhengde many times. The quarrel was blushing. Emperor Zhengde couldn't do anything about him. At most, he couldn't go to the court. . As a result, he did not go to court, Yang Tinghe's decision was carried forward instead, and the country was functioning better than when Emperor Zhengde went to court. It was for this reason that the Zhengde Emperor was discouraged.
Until Jiajing Emperor came to the throne, with the support of Zhang Cong and others, and Yang Tinghe and others due to a dispute over ceremonies, the "Blood Splattered Zuo Shun Men" incident finally broke out.
As the Yili school represented by Zhang Cong and Fang Xianfu gradually gained the upper hand, the officials of the Huli school decided to collectively advise the emperor.
So a huge team of more than two hundred people, including twenty-three people from Jiuqing, twenty from Hanlin, twenty-one people in the case, thirty people from the imperial ambassador, and more than two hundred people, collectively knelt outside Zuoshunmen, crying and shouting. Earth-shaking.
The Jiajing emperor sent people to jail the first few ministers, and the officials became more angry. There was a commotion in front of Zuo Shun’s gate. Emperor Sejong’s murderous heart came to a halt. He dispatched Jin Yiwei from all directions and arrested 134 people. Sixteen people were guilty, and Zuo Shun was stained with blood in front of the door.
After that, the civil servants saw the iron fist of Emperor Jiajing and did not dare to stand out. Afterwards, Emperor Jiajing reused Zhang Cong, Fang Xianfu and other literati who were sent to the emperor, and finally grasped the power, and now the Jiajing Dynasty was born.
However, the literati are still the upper class of Ming Dynasty, and they have not changed. Therefore, Fang Xianfu came to invite Lu Bing, thinking that he had given Lu Bing a lot of face, and Fang Xianfu didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, civil servants like Fang Xianfu look down on personnel like Jin Yiwei and Dongchang.
If it were not for Fang Da, Fang Xianfu would definitely not be such a "corporal courtesy". Even if Lu Bing was Jiajing's nanny and confidant, Fang Xianfu couldn't let Fang Xianfu take a high look.
However, whoever allowed himself to participate in the horse market was originally just wanting to do some business and earn some extra money, but he didn't expect...to get along with Dongchang, there really is no good thing, Fang Xianfu also secretly cried out bad luck.
Lu Bing knows Fang Xianfu's inner entanglement. Lu Bing is also disdainful of such a dignified person, but in order to take over the task, it is necessary to temporarily vacillate.
Lu Bing had already planned to find out when Fang Xianfu had happened recently.
Lu Bing and Fang Xianfu entered the restaurant together. Fang Xianfu asked for a private room by the window. The two of them humbly gave way. Fang Xianfu sat in the main seat, and Lu Bing sat in the guest seat.
Fang Xianfu ordered a pot of Biluochun, then ordered a few seasonal vegetables, ordered a tail of Xihucuyu, and warmed up a pot of wine.
After a while, Xiao Er came up with tea first, and the two of them drank tea and chatted and waited for the dishes to be served.
Fang Xianfu smiled and said, "Lu Qianhu, thank you for saving this official. You must have a drink later."
"Master Fang is polite!" Lu Bing said with a humble smile: "The assassin dared to commit a crime in front of my Jinyiwei, so he didn't put my Jinyiwei in his eyes. Fa-rectification on the spot is also right."
The tone of Lu Bing's words is humble, but the words are not at all polite.
Fang Xianfu stroked Mei's beard, and said: "Jin Yiwei has indeed shown a new look recently, unlike before, it was just embarrassing with Dongchang."
After Fang Xianfu finished speaking, he seemed to remember that the person sitting opposite was a thousand households in Jinyiwei. He hurriedly apologized, "Master Lu, this officer is not talking about you!"
Lu Bing picked up the tea, took a sip, and said, "It doesn't matter, Jin Yiwei has really had a bit of a hard time over the years. The official is also a family of Jin Yiwei, so I can't see it."
"Then, Master Lu can find out who assassinated our people... Who is sacred?" Fang Xianfu tentatively asked.
"It's found out, it's from Dongchang." Lu Bing said bluntly without concealing.
Fang Xianfu was a little embarrassed, thinking for a long time, not knowing how to explain it. The two of them drank tea in silence, making various calculations, waiting for the dishes to be served.
On the East Factory side, Chen Hong and Zhang Mo have already discussed what to do when they stop working.
Zhang Mo was about to retreat and act according to his plan, but Chen Hong suddenly stopped him and said, "From tomorrow, Liu Biao will be Jin Yiwei's person. Since the establishment of the East Factory, there are only people who dig others in the East Factory. Others come to dig the people from my east factory, especially Jin Yiwei!"
"Supervisor... what do you want?" Zhang Mo asked
"If Liu Biao really enters the Jinyiwei, then my face and Dongchang's face will be lost! I don't want to see this moment happen!" Chen Hongyin said harshly.
