Chapter 59 Return the Sun

Xu Jinghong's move was indeed beyond everyone's expectations. In the view of those who already know something about his background, he can't easily let go of the opportunity to hit the Fang family this time. And the Fang family will certainly fight back with all their strength, and then these people will be able to profit from it. However, Xu Jinghong made such a decision and handed over the witnesses and testimonies that could hit the Fang family to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

When the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice took over the subordinates and confessions, they were a little absent-minded. One of the masters blurted out: "Doesn't Xu Dusi want to be in charge anymore?" Surprise in words is obviously more than regrettable.

The old dog who escorted people to the Ministry of Criminal Justice was stunned first, and then said, "My family has said that this matter has an idea, and the authority of Ansi in our country is only to ask for the evidence of crime. As for how to judge their crimes, it is the responsibility of the Ministry of Criminal Justice." He couldn't figure out why Xu Jinghong had such a change, but after seeing the performance of these officials, he began to think that this might be correct.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for the Ministry of Criminal Justice not to take over the three families of Cao Liliang, and after witnessing the departure of the Guoan Division, these officials showed a complex look on their faces.

"Your excellency, how should we deal with them?" A master looked at the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and asked.

Lian Chongru's face was also a little ugly: "I really can't see it. I only knew that Xu Jinghong, who was hard, would come here, but he left trouble to our Ministry of Criminal Justice. But when things get to this point, can we still excuse the Fang family?

Naturally, everyone understands the meaning of their boss's words. Yesterday, their cousin rejected the person Fang Yuanshan sent to ask for help because of his lull attitude. The Fang family must be cruel about this. If they are given the opportunity to stabilize their position again, it is impossible to forgive them.

"Then follow the rules? Anyway, we already have these confessions, and the human testimony is also there. We can justly let Fang Yuanshan come to my government for a hearing. Shao Zhongqiu, the waiter, asked again.

"Now it seems that this is the only way." Lian Chong hummed too happily, and naturally he was quite dissatisfied with Guoan's behavior of only doing half of what he did.

At this time, the Fang family did not know that things had changed so much. They are still making a final effort to unite all those who can unite to deal with the upcoming troubles. For this reason, they let the subordinates spread continuously in Beijing, saying that Xu Jinghong's move was aimed at the family. After Cao Liliang's three families, more families will soon be unlucky.

Although the Gyeonggi government sent some people to drive away and arrest these people who spread rumors, there are too many people, and after all, this statement has filled the whole beam. And the effect is also good. At least after Fang Yuanshan returned home at night, he knew that many people had come to express their position with their family before, and they must deal with Xu Jinghong with the Fang family at the next court meeting.

"How many people are on our side now?" After a little squinting, not long after dawn, Fang Yuanshan got up, and together, he called several sons and brothers to ask.

"If you go home, more than 50 officials in the DPRK have promised to be on the same line with us." Xiao Song, the biggest steward of the Fang family and the most trusted think tank of Fang Yuanshan, hurriedly answered.

"However, the status of these people in the court is too unsatisfactory." Fang Jingshou said with a cold face. In just one short day, this good man, who used to look elegant, seemed a little sloppy, his eyes were red, and his hair was a little messy, which was obviously caused by not having a good night's rest.

"How could this happen? What kind of people are they?" Fang Yuanshan's heart suddenly scratched, but he still resisted his uneasiness and asked.

"Only eleven of them are the identity of a family, and they are also a declining family, such as Li Ben, the head of the Ministry of Public Affairs, Guo Chang, the head of the Ministry of Criminal Justice... The others are little people who have no status in the court..." Xiao Song sighed and told the truth.

This made Fang Yuanshan's face even worse: "This is completely speculative. It seems that even these people don't have much hope that we can win in this matter."

Fang Yuanshan's speculation is well-founded, because these people have no place in the dynasty. Even if the Fang family is unlucky, they will not go anywhere. On the contrary, if the Fang family can escape this disaster, it will find a good backer for them. Naturally, these people who are difficult in officialdom will not let go of such a profitable thing.

"What about the people who were attached to us before? Those people can only gain a foothold in the court by relying on our Fang family. Hasn't any of them stood up to help us this time? Fang Yuanshan continued to ask questions with red eyes.

"...No, these officials are all closed. Obviously, the end of the Cao Liliang family has scared them..." Xiao Song's voice became lower and lower. At the same time, he looked at Fang Yuanshan worriedly for fear that he would be angry.

Fang Yuanshan hasn't had an attack yet, and his sons have already cursed: "How can these shameless villains actually protect themselves when they were the master. If we pass this time, let's see how we can settle accounts with them.

"Okay, let's wait for this scene. Now this is completely useless..." Fang Yuanshan stared at a few sons, but his heart was also a little chilled. Is the Fang family really going to end up in the hands of such a boy this time?

No, Fang Yuanshan doesn't believe that the foundation of the Fang family for nearly a hundred years will be destroyed in the hands of such a boy. He can definitely come up with a solution. It seems that it is time to use the power that has been hidden outside Beijing, and it is also time to let those in the court know that the Fang family can never be humiliated by one person.

After making up his mind, Fang Yuanshan's face had shown determination: "Xiao Song, send a letter, it's time for us to show our real strength. As long as those people's chapters come to Beijing, those guys at both ends of the head and mice should know their choice.

Xiao Song nodded solemnly: "I know, I'm going to fly the pigeon to pass the book. In fact, some people have noticed that the situation in Beijing has been wrong and have sent letters to inquire.

"It seems that we are really reliable. After this time, I will transfer all the real pillars of the Fang family to Beijing, so that we can be guaranteed, instead of waiting and acting according to the eyes of others when things are about to now. Fang Yuanshan sighed with emotion.

In order to survive in the dynasty, the family will not be completely removed from the sudden forces. In addition to the most important figures in the center of the imperial court, many states and counties in the Song Dynasty will also install different personnel. These children of the family who can be absolutely trusted by them have their support in the local area, so their development is also very smooth, and they will be able to seize the power of a place in a few years.

And these forces have become the most reliable force of the family outside the capital. Once there is a change in Beijing, they can provide the most powerful help to get the family through the difficulties. Now the Fang family has to rely on its own hidden power outside to force those in power in the court to make a choice between themselves and Xu Jinghong. This is also the last killer of the Fang family.

Xiao Song's action was still very fast. Half an hour later, all the orders for help had been sent out. After receiving the reply, Fang Yuanshan breathed a sigh of relief: "This time, I will not only let this matter go, but also remove the thorn in the eyes of Lord Xu Jinghong. He has been arrogant enough to think that he can be lawless on our heads!"

Several sons were very shocked by such a change. They didn't know that the Fang family still had a lot of power outside. In fact, this is also due to their lack of shrewdness. Imagine, how can a family with hundreds of years of inheritance only have one power in the capital? Isn't it possible to be served by others at any time?

As soon as Fang Yuanshan finished his fierceness and wanted to walk around the government, a servant came in and reported: "Sir, someone from the Ministry of Criminal Justice brought you a letter."

"Oh? Ministry of Criminal Justice? Could it be that Lian Chongru finally figured out that he wanted to help me change his mind? Humph, this boy is also a good opportunity, but I won't forget that he looked at my people's face. While muttering, Fang Yuanshan still ordered someone to bring the letter over.

But after opening it, the face that had recovered slightly became grim again: "What? He actually made such a decision. What on earth did he have?

"Dad, what's the matter?" Seeing that the father's face suddenly changed again, the sons were also a little nervous and hurried over to ask.

"It was the news sent by Guo Chang of the Ministry of Criminal Justice that the National Security Department sent people to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and even the confessions of the three families were given to the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Fang Yuanshan gritted his teeth and said.

Huh? Isn't that great? In this way, we can settle the matter through the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Fang Jingding said quickly, and his words were immediately approved by other brothers. In their thoughts, the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice are much easier to deal with than Xu Jinghong and others who act regardless of the rules. But they immediately found that their father's face was even worse.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? This will only be beneficial to us. Why aren't you happy?

"What do you know?" Fang Yuanshan looked at several sons with chagrin and was a little worried. His son couldn't even see such a thing. What can the Fang family do in the future? If before yesterday, falling into the hands of the Ministry of Criminal Justice was only good for us, things would have become smaller and smaller. But today, things are different. People fall into the hands of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and I'm afraid it's more troublesome than in the National Security Division.

"Why is this?" Several sons were stunned, but still couldn't figure out the key.

"Because those people have also conflicted with our family at this time. Yesterday, we went to so many government and officials, and they all refused our help. What was our reaction at that time?

"Of course, I'm not disgrant. These officials are in the court with us, and they don't even want to help each other at all."

Fang Yuanshan looked at the eldest son who gave the answer and sighed, "That's it. They will also think so. Naturally, they can't wait for our Fang family to be depressed. Now that the initiative is in their hands, do you think they will give us a chance to turn over so that we can revenge in the future?

"This..." Fang Jingshou and several people suddenly stopped, and they finally understood what was going on.

"Xu Jinghong's hand was really fierce, and he suddenly pulled himself out of this matter, but it did not hinder the attack on us. And compared with the ability of his Guoan Division, the Ministry of Criminal Justice is much more powerful. Fang Yuanshan clenched his fist and said, "And when things have come to this point, even if we and they all know what he thinks, I'm afraid we have to fight."

"Yangmou, this is also a Yangmou that lets people know how things will develop, but they are at a loss." Fang Jingshou couldn't help but say hatefully, "He calculated against him before fighting back against us."

"Yes, last time we wanted to use this method to deal with his Guoan Division, but the result was very shortened by him. This time he used the same strategy to put us in a dilemma.

"Father, what should we do?" Several sons suddenly lost their proportion and put their hopes on their father.

"Now there is no other way, only one way is to work. Because those people can't let us go easily. What's hateful is that we used to be able to speak as Xu Jinghong, but now it has become an infighting between officials in the court and families. Although that's the case, Fang Yuanshan is not sure at this time.

The integrity of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is not very powerful in the court, but he is involved with the Wu family. In addition, other families who have had a holiday with the Fang family have taken action. This time, Fang Yuanshan can be regarded as an invincible opponent.

At this time, Xu Jinghong is still making follow-up efforts in the National Security Department. He is acceptable to Sun Zaiyuan's proposal to borrow a knife to kill people and put himself out of the matter, but he also wants to give this fire another wind, so as to make the attack of the other party in the court more fierce.

What Xu Jinghong looked at was the attitude and reaction of the helpers of those families all day yesterday. These spies secretly sent by the emperor to each family have now been used by Xu Jinghong.

"Except for Lv and Ye, there are not many people who are really threatening." After putting these secret reports aside, Xu Jinghong nodded: "It seems that this time we want to use the Ministry of Criminal Justice and other family forces to deal with the Fang family. However, Mr. Sun, the Ye and Lu families are still in doubt. These two forces are really too big. If they get in the way, I'm afraid they may not be able to finish their success in a battle.

"This point is indeed a little troublesome. However, according to the past news, the Lu family is not the one who can help the Fang family. In fact, Lv Zhonghe also has the intention to suppress the family that has great suppression of imperial power. Now that there is a good reason to deal with the Fang family, he will only contribute and will never destroy it.

"I also thought of this. What about the Ye family? Although the Lu family is now known as the first family, in terms of strength, the Ye family is by no means inferior to it, and Ye Mingyang is also a wise man..."

"This is indeed an uncertain factor. No one can guess Ye Mingyang's mind. Ye Hao mentioned this to me several times at the beginning, saying that the Ye family came out of Ye Mingyang, which was the opportunity for the rise of the Ye family. And the strength of the Ye family is far above what we can see, which is really difficult to deal with. Sun Zaiyuan frowned and said uneasily.

"So, even if he saw Fang Yuanshan yesterday, he may not really be willing to help him?"

"Yes, this person's style of behavior is difficult to think about, and he can't know his intention from the surface."

"Actually, judging from the previous situation, the Ye family should also be the one who hoped that the Fang family would fall. How could they see Fang Yuanshan? Could it be... He is just doing something? In fact, does he still have deeper ideas in his mind?

After some discussion, the two still failed to come to a conclusion and had to put things aside for the time being. Now people have been handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, even if they want to repent.

At this time, Xiong Geng suddenly came to the door and reported: "The three assassins are still unwilling to confess their identity. The brothers really have nothing to do with them."

"Hmm?" Xu Jinghong was stunned when he heard this: "Which three assassins?"

"It's the three assassins we caught last night. Early this morning, the brothers used means to them, but they refused to reveal a word. I came to see you and see if there was anything you could do.

"Who let you torture them? Didn't I say something to hang them up for a few days? Xu Jinghong stared at Xiong Geng angrily: "Their identity is not clear. It's hard to say whether they are enemies or friends in the future."

"This..." Xiong Geng was also a little dumbfounded. He did hear Xu Jinghong say this yesterday, but later he was urged by his brothers to leave this behind, and now he knows that he has done something wrong.

However, Xu Jinghong did not criticize him too much. Since the three dared to offend themselves, they should be prepared to suffer. So after sighing, he asked, "What did you do to them? What's the means?"

"It's the kind of punishment you used to greet the three owners last time, covering their faces with cloth and watering them... In addition, it's the most common whip and soldering iron." Xiong Geng answered honestly.

Xu Jinghong smiled bitterly: "Can this punishment work on anyone? And it's just a piece of cake for them to deal with ordinary people's tolerance.

"This... I really didn't expect it. But how about this?"

"Let's go and have a look with you. Now that they have taken action, we can't let them hide it like this, otherwise what is the prestige of our country's Ansi? Xu Jinghong stood up and took the two to the backyard.
