Chapter 227 Jia Amnesty Exiled for the Third World
On the first new year when Jia She entered the WTO, he gave the emperor a New Year gift, three sets of military boxing and a set of relatively systematic military training methods suitable for military situations in various places. At the same time, he also presented a visual feast. The military performance made the emperor, who has always been diligent, break the tradition since his succession, and even gave himself an extra day off.
Since he succeeded to the throne, he has only given himself two days off each year, one day is his birthday, and the other day is New Year's Eve. Even hundreds of years ago, he is the most diligent and self-restraining emperor, not one of them.It is rare to break the tradition this time. One can imagine how satisfied the emperor was with this gift from Jia She, especially after watching the military performance with his own eyes, he was even more delighted. Each of the 100 performers was rewarded with [-] taels of silver, and a banquet was held to drink with the [-] people.
If Jia Amnesty only offered military boxing and training methods alone, the emperor would see the value of these things, but he would not have an intuitive feeling, and would not be able to appreciate the shocking effect. However, the short half-hour performance of these 100 people made people The emperor had a clearer understanding, and couldn't help but get excited.If all the soldiers of Daqi can be trained to this level, it will not only improve the combat power and expand the territory, but more importantly, it can reduce the corvee to a certain extent, and more manpower will be invested in farming. It's a virtuous cycle.The emperor looked at the wonderful and shocking performance in the audience, and he was very proud for a while. This is Haoerlang from Daqi. Come to a better life and lead Daqi to start a new era.
The leader of this military performance is Fang Shaozhong. Although he is the youngest one, but because he is the most hardworking, talented, and Jia Amnesty is beside him, he keeps making troubles. After all, this adoptive father is not called for nothing. He quickly stood out from the crowd, and was well-deservedly recommended by everyone as the commander of the performance.
Fang Shaozhong still had doubts at first, but his current identity is still a sinner, and he went back to Beijing privately to worry that Jia Amnesty would be hurt if he was exposed.But Jia Amnesty wanted to take this opportunity to wash away the grievances between Fang Shaozhong and his son, so that Fang Shaozhong could make contributions in the Northwest in the future, instead of continuing to follow him in such an embarrassing status.
Jia Amnesty's painstaking efforts were not in vain, the emperor really paid attention to this outstanding but young young man at a glance, he must be a good talent who can play the role of commander, and he is also the most handsome one , It is easy to attract the emperor's attention.
"The one at the front, what is your name and where do you live?" The emperor liked it more and more, and couldn't help asking.
"Return to Your Majesty, the sinner Fang Shaozhong, whose ancestral home is Qizhou." Fang Shaozhong, who was named, knelt down with his head slightly lowered.
"Sinner?" He called himself a sinner at a young age, and he was probably implicated in a family crime. The emperor didn't immediately feel that he was being misunderstood when he heard about the sinner. The big day plays such an important role.As a sinner, to be able to make it this far must be something extraordinary. The emperor is a man who cherishes talents, so he naturally has to ask clearly before making a decision.
"My father, Fang Wenguang, used to be the magistrate of Qizhou."
In Qizhou, the memory of the emperor came back instantly. He recalled that at the end of the year before last year, he investigated and dealt with a wide-ranging corruption case in Qizhou. In order to deter the court, the emperor cut the mess quickly and used extremely severe methods. The people involved that time could have Those who were sentenced to exile were sentenced to death, those who could be sentenced to imprisonment were sentenced to exile, and those who were sentenced to confiscation of their homes and dismissed from office were also sentenced to additional imprisonment. In short, it was more severe than any corruption case in the past.After the Qizhou case, the atmosphere of the entire court has been cleared up. In the next six months, high salaries were launched in a timely manner to support honesty. The court officials were all afraid and kept silent.
In fact, the emperor would also think afterwards that the Qizhou incident was pursued quickly and ruthlessly, and it was too late to investigate carefully one by one, and there might be a small number of grievances and misjudgments.If the circumstances at that time were investigated one by one, wouldn’t it be time for the real corrupt crocodiles to erase the evidence and transfer the property? In order to avoid delaying the best time, the emperor had to sacrifice a small number of people.In fact, the emperor didn't kill all of them blindly at that time, he was convicted only after seeing some more tangible evidence. Fang Wenguang suffered from being framed, and was dragged into the ranks of corruption without knowing it.
Standing here today with Fang Shaozhong, the emperor more or less understood in his heart that his father Fang Wenguang presumably belonged to this small number of unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, otherwise Yuan Chenghe would not allow him to perform in front of the imperial court.I searched my memory further, and vaguely recalled that Fang Wenguang was diligent and respectful when he was in power, and his handwriting looked quite upright and strong, not like someone who would be dazzled by gold and silver.It's just that because Qizhou is far away from the capital, Fang Wenguang is only a magistrate, and the emperor doesn't have a deep impression, and he didn't distinguish it from the people in Qizhou in time.
"I remember that your father's handwriting is good, and you also have the style of being a father." The young man knelt there without being humble, and his demeanor was really good. This was an initiative to give Fang Shaozhong a chance to appeal for grievances.
"Father will be moved to tears when he hears His Majesty's words."
"Have you ever resented me when I was sent to the northwest?" When I asked this question, the air froze for a moment, and the scene suddenly stopped.If the answer to this question is not good, let alone Fang Shaozhong wants to move his head on the spot, Fang Wenguang's face will not escape death.
"Father always teaches sinners that thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king. This catastrophe is due to his ignorance of people. Although he was implicated by others, he deserves to bear the consequences. His Majesty's grace to spare the lives of the sinner father and son is already extraordinarily merciful. How can you feel resentment in your heart." Fang Shaozhong was very calm, and he didn't express his grievances very eagerly. The emperor is not ignorant, and will definitely send someone to investigate the matter again, and the father's grievances will be completely washed away by then.
"Your father is a man of integrity." The emperor's words were a little unclear, whether he was really praising or ironic.
"When my father was at home, he often taught the sinner and my sister to be an upright person."
"Oh? You still have a sister?" The emperor asked casually, judging from the meaning of the young man, at least the situation is not too bad.Generally, it’s okay for the female relatives involved to be married. If they are not married, they will either be sold into slavery or used as official prostitutes.No matter what, this woman must be implicated. Now that he knew that there was a grievance, the emperor really couldn't bear to let an innocent woman continue to suffer innocently, and felt that Fang Wenguang should be investigated again as soon as possible.To say that today, when cold-blooded and ruthless, no one can match, but sometimes unexpectedly pity the poor and the weak, it is really a combination of contradictions.
"Thanks to Your Majesty's grace, my sister has not been implicated. Your Majesty, the sinner has something to ask, and please allow it." Fang Shaozhong bowed.As soon as these words came out, everyone present was sweating for him. He dared to ask for it as the son of a sinner. I don't know if he was born without courage, or if he was too courageous.
Finally couldn't bear it anymore, the emperor originally thought that Fang Shaozhong was going to appeal at the beginning, but he didn't expect the young man to ramble for a long time and didn't get to the point. The emperor was in a good mood today, so he followed him around to see if he could survive. when.
"tell me the story."
"The sinner wants to meet with his sister and tell him that both father and son are safe, so that she can rest assured. The sinner will make meritorious deeds in the northwest, make contributions, and guard the great rivers and mountains of Daqi."
The emperor was a little surprised by what he said. He didn't want him to re-investigate Fang Wenguang's old case. It was such a simple request?Is it true that you don't resent him, and you are even willing to continue throwing your head and blood in the northwest to contribute to defending your family and country?
"Where is your sister?"
"Thanks to the emperor's favor, my sister was drafted into the palace the year before last."
The emperor was a little embarrassed when he heard it. After thinking about it, he couldn't remember that there was a beauty surnamed Fang in the harem. This is really a flood. Those who regard the mother's family of any harem beauty as their family members, even the queen is no exception.
"allow!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Fang Shaozhong really thanked him sincerely this time.The young man is smart, my sister has let me see, can the emperor re-investigate the old case?He appealed his grievances and got a chance to meet his sister. Sure enough, Jiang was still old and hot. Before he left, Fang Shaozhong was pointed out by Jia She.
