"Zhi Zhi, go tell Manager Fang and ask him to act in advance immediately. Be sure to protect those four people from any harm."
"Yes!" The maid bowed her head in response, turned around and walked out.
"Wait..." Mrs. Fan stopped the maid as she walked to the door, and said to another maid beside her: "Zhiyuan, you and Zhi Zhi go together."
"yes!"
After the two maids went out, Mrs. Fan called another servant: "You can take some money from the accounting room. I want to go to the government office to see the governor in person."
After giving a series of instructions, Mrs. Fan asked the servant to hold a heavy box and set off in the carriage.
After Zhizhi and Zhiyuan gave orders to Manager Fang, on their way back, Zhizhi suddenly squatted on the ground, looking painful and complaining of stomachache.
Zhiyuan stepped forward to check, but was hit on the hand from behind by a branch and passed out.
Zhizhi looked around and saw that no one was around, then secretly moved the kite behind a lush tree, and then left as if no one was around.
Dodging the guards and maids in the mansion, he quietly arrived at the room where Fan Zong was.
"Master, the madam has indeed taken action. She wants to use the young master to contain you!"
When the young man heard this, he patted his head violently and suddenly realized: "No wonder she didn't let someone investigate thoroughly when something happened to the young master. It turned out that she was waiting to plant this accusation on the young master. Everyone knew that the young master was seriously ill. Let the young master go, this evil woman is really vicious."
Fan Zong looked at the young man and warned him solemnly: "Xiao Fan, remember what I told you, go and deal with this matter, if..."
"Don't worry, young master, I will definitely complete this task successfully."
At this time, the winner has been decided, and the young master's plan is even better. Most of the people on the madam's side have been controlled by the young master. The madam is in danger, and she doesn't know whether she can escape. Only a fool would choose that jealous woman!
She didn't know when it was solved quietly.
…
Soon the carriage stopped in front of a solemn and prosperous government office, and Mrs. Fan walked in with the support of her maid.
But he was blocked by the guards guarding the outside and was not allowed to go in: "Madam, my Lord said that he will not see anyone in these few days."
"Brother, please do me a favor and let me in." Mrs. Fan took out a piece of gold and placed it on the guard. The bright gold made the guard's eyes light up, and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, but He still endured it and said: "Madam, the Lord has already given orders. The young ones must not go against the wishes of the Lord. Madam, please go back!"
Mrs. Fan sneered in her heart, and took out a bigger gold ingot from her sleeve: "Brother, please pass it on. As long as you can let me in, I will give you more benefits."
The guard was finally moved. He took back the two ingots of gold and ran again. When he came out again, his face looked a little bad: "Madam, it's not that I can't communicate, it's that I can't do anything. Please go back, madam!"
"No, I won't go back!" Mrs. Fan rushed to the government office as if she was crazy, and was hugged by a group of guards.
Suddenly, there was a flurry of excitement. The guards brought by Mrs. Fan from the Fan family fought with the guards from the government office. The scene was chaotic.
It was so hot that everyone came to see each other and talked about it.
"That woman looks so familiar!" someone said.
"She seems to be Mr. Fan's second wife. She and Mr. Fan were childhood sweethearts. It is said that she and Mr. Fan were already married at the time. She also had a son before Mr. Fan's first wife. Mr. Fan should accept her as his wife. Concubine, after Master Fan’s first wife passed away, she became Master Fan’s first wife.”
"At the beginning, it was said that she was a vixen who fascinated Mr. Fan. Some people said that Mr. Fan's first wife was killed by her."
"Is it true? How many years have passed since this happened?"
"Of course it's true. One of my uncles in the Fan family told me this. Mrs. Fan is very bad now. I've also heard that she deducts the monthly payments from the people in the house and the shop assistants, and she also takes advantage of them at every turn. Swearing at the servants."
…
The news spread like wildfire and the city was filled with uproar. It was unclear which words were true and which words were false.
After all, the people in the government office were all trained and experienced in actual combat, and they took down Mrs. Fan and some of the servants she brought in a few moves.
The captured Mrs. Fan's hair was messy and her clothes were wrinkled. She no longer looked dignified and generous as before.
When she heard the arrangements made by the people around her, she became even more angry and wanted to tear those people's mouths apart.
His somewhat embarrassed face turned green and red.
Just when everyone was talking about it, the government official came out with people.
When he saw Mrs. Fan being restrained by the guards, she raised her hand and shouted: "Your Majesty has an order to take Mrs. Fan to the Yazhong for trial."
Mrs. Fan, who was originally very angry, gave up her struggle after hearing this, and a sneer appeared on her lips.
This time, Fan Zong, I want you to pay with blood. Even if you die, you will bear a huge stain and your reputation will be ruined. Even after you die, you will not be forgiven by the ancestors of the Fan family.
Above the lobby, four people dressed as servants were kneeling on the ground, shivering.
The governor, who was dressed as an official, sat majestically above. When he saw Mrs. Fan being escorted in, a cold light burst out from his eyes.
Well, Mrs. Fan, if your son dares to hurt my son, then I don’t need to be too polite to you.
Mrs. Fan shook off the guard who was holding her, knelt down and kowtowed, and said excitedly: "Sir, I, the third young master of the Fan family, Fan Zong, murdered the eldest young master for the sake of the Fan family's property, causing him to kill him on the way back to Yangzhou. These four sedan chairs My husband can testify, and I ask you to seek justice for the eldest young master."
The Governor looked at Mrs. Fan coldly, then looked at the four people who were kneeling and shivering, and said loudly: "Is that so? But I heard from the four bearers that you ordered people to kill Fan. The eldest young master of the family also tried to get Manager Fang to force them to blame the third young master."
The Governor's words made Mrs. Fan feel like a spray of cold water had been poured all over her body.
Mrs. Fan looked up, and sure enough, Manager Fang was missing. Manager Fang had always been the manager she trusted very much.
She had already discussed with Manager Fang to keep the four bearers who had returned, so that she could correct Fan Zong for killing the eldest son of the Fan family at the appropriate time. She had taken advantage of the four bearers, and they were also detained. Consent to perjury.
How... but it turned out that she ordered someone to kill the eldest son of the Fan family
"Where's Manager Fang?"
"Mrs. Fan, are you still unclear about the situation? Manager Fang tried to frame a good person and asked the four bearers to give perjury. In order to coerce them, he beat them many times and used their family members to blackmail them. This crime is But, I have already arrested him and put him in prison."
Mrs. Fan was paralyzed on the ground as if struck by lightning, shaking her head in horror: "It's not that, it's not that, I'm not the murderer, it's Fan Zong, it's Fan Zong, it's Fan Zong who found someone to do it..."
Mrs. Fan pointed at the four sedan bearers kneeling on the ground and scolded sharply: "Say, it was obviously Fan Zong who did it, why did you frame me!"
"Madam, I'm sorry, we didn't follow your instructions and blame the third young master for this matter, but we can't wrongly accuse a good person!"
"Madam, please spare us, we don't want to do bad things..."
The four men seemed to be trembling with fear. They knelt down and kowtowed, crying and begging for mercy.
"You... you... you are so mean!" Mrs. Fan burst out with blood, vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted.
The Censor sitting above looked at all this coldly. When Mrs. Fan fainted, he raised his hand and said: "Mrs. Fan ordered people to kill the eldest son of the Fan family, and also tried to wrongly accuse a good person to escape his guilt. The crime is unforgivable and he must be imprisoned." Imprisoned, beheaded in the end!"
"My lord, you are wise!"
"My lord, you are wise!"
"Your Excellency is wise!"
"Your Excellency is wise!"
…
Following the words of the Censor, both the people in the government office and the common people who were watching the excitement raised their hands and shouted, with a loud voice, like a thunderous explosion, which quickly spread throughout Yangzhou City.
There was a burst of laughter in the study.
"Master, you fought really well this time! You didn't know that the old woman's face turned green and she vomited blood several times. She must have been so angry that she was going to die." The boy couldn't help covering his mouth and burst out laughing.
Deng Lin couldn't help laughing: "It's all the young master's credit. If it weren't for the young master's good strategy, we wouldn't have been able to fight this battle so easily. The old woman has been living happily in the Fan family for so many years. It's really satisfying to be uprooted this time. !”
Fan Zong couldn't hide the smile on his face: "This time, it's thanks to the only son of the Censor. If it weren't for him, it would take more time for the old woman to defeat her. Our next task will be very difficult." It’s onerous. After the old lady dies, the people in the mansion will have to adjust, and the branches in each city will also have to reorganize the number of people... "
"Ahem..."
A violent coughing sound sounded, and Fan Zong's eyes darkened and he was about to faint.
"Master..."
"Master..." Deng Lin, who was sitting next to him, supported his body in time: "Master, you'd better lie down on the bed for a while..."
Wiping the blood on the corner of his mouth, Fan Zong smiled miserably and said in an extremely weak voice: "These days, I know that my body can't support it for much longer, so I have been holding on in front of others. It was not until yesterday that I had the opportunity to kill the old man. The witch mother and her son were defeated in one fell swoop, and a big stone in their hearts was relieved."
Fan Zong looked at the young man and stretched out his hand: "Xiao Fan..."
"Master..." The young man held his hand, with tears streaming down his face: "Master, you'd better talk less. If you rest, you'll be fine."
"Xiao Fan, you have helped me a lot, and I can't repay you. The position of the general manager of the Fan family is reserved for you, but you must listen to Deng Lin on important matters. If I go there in the future, , Deng Lin represents me, and his orders are my orders."
