Seeing that it was getting dark, Qi Xiangdi couldn't help but ask, "Why are you, your brother and sister, and your children? Why are you not at home?"

Hearing his question, Mantong smiled bitterly and said, "A while his business had a problem, he asked me to find a way for him, but I didn't agree. Later, he asked me to sell the house to pay off his debts, but I didn't agree. He sold the shop back to his hometown in anger and ignored us."

Qi Xiangdi frowned and said, "Why don't you teach him a lesson?"

"What lessons are you taught? The child doesn't listen to me, and the more he teaches, the more he becomes rebellious." Man Tong said helplessly: "This child is so arrogant. He obviously doesn't have the ability to do business and wants to make a lot of money. In fact, it's okay to go back to his hometown, and he will not cause trouble even if he returns to his hometown to live a down-to-earth life."

Qi Xiangdi said, "My Yiqi has also returned to his hometown to keep mourning, but his filial piety is almost over and he will be able to become an official next year."

"Your Yiqi and Yihui have been well-behaved and obedient since childhood, unlike my son who always has been against me. My wife often says that we must have been enemies in our previous life, otherwise why would we quarrel when we meet?"

In fact, Man Tong also regretted it very much. He went to the capital not long after his son was born. At that time, he did not bring the mother and son to Beijing because he was not rich enough. Then he wasted thirteen years in the capital, and his son did not get married to him even if he failed the Jinshi exam.

Qi Xiangdi smiled and said, "He is all a father. Since he returns to his hometown, let go and ignore him. Could it be that he dares not care about you when you are old?"

Mantong took a sip of wine and said, "I think so, but the child always cried and wanted to go back to his hometown. Cough, it's really hard to describe."

It is difficult for honest officials to judge who is right or wrong in such matters.

At this moment, the door was snapped again. Qi Xiangdi smiled and said, "It should be Jingen coming, I'll go open the door for him."

Mantong hurriedly stopped him and said, "No one asked you, a guest, to open the door. You sit down, I'll invite him in."

That night, the moon was darker outside, and Mantong's eyes were not very good. He didn't see Jingen's appearance clearly at the door. When he entered the house, he was stunned: "It's you?"

Qi Xiangdi originally wanted to introduce him, but he smiled and said, "Have you seen him?"

Fu Jingen nodded and said, "I was sitting on a table when I was in the restaurant the day before yesterday. I chatted with the husband for a while."

"What's the name of Mr. Shibo."

Man Tong thought about the words he said at that time and looked a little embarrassed: "At that time, I and a friend were drinking tea in a restaurant and listened to storytelling, and I just chatted a few casually. I didn't expect you to be the imperial envoy who was discussed by everyone."

In order to cover up the embarrassment, Mantong said: "Do you want to have two drinks?"

Without waiting for Fu Jingen to speak, Qi Xiangdi said, "He can't drink now. When the matter is resolved, he will accompany you no matter what you want."

After saying that, he looked at Jingne and said, "Don't drink alcohol during the case handling, otherwise it will be easy to mislead things."

"It's my uncle."

Seeing that he didn't drink, Mantong went to make a pot of tea.

Qi Xiangdi didn't drink alcohol, so he changed to tea: "Jingen, tell us the news you found in the past half month, let's discuss it together."

Fu Jingen did not hide it, and told all the news he had heard during this period. After saying that, he said with a serious expression: "The news I found out shows that he was the mastermind behind the assassination of the Censor Guan. This man committed a lot of evil crimes. This time I must arrest him and return it to the people of Anhui to a clear world."

Man Tong said: "Actually, I guess He Meng did this. Over the years, he has tried every means to force those officials to compromise and join him. Those who are disobedient will use methods to get rid of it."

Qi Xiangdi didn't expect that this man was so bold: "Jingen, this man is very dangerous. When you investigate, you must be careful when he is anxious to jump over the wall."

Afraid that he was young and angry and fucked He Mengming against his sword and spear, Qi Xiangdi said again: "If necessary, you have to make a false promise and wait until you collect all the evidence before bringing him to justice."

Mantong couldn't help but look at him when he heard this.

Fu Jingen smiled and said, "Uncle, I know."

Man Tong was silent and said, "Since He Meng took power, he was overbearing and arrogant. He threatened the governors and the Censors to obey him. He even started a sage in the army. If he didn't accept it, he would lose his life if he was beaten and scolded. Not to mention the governors for the time being, many people in the army had a lot of resentment, but they dared not resist due to his tyranny."

Fu Jingen asked, "Is there anyone who chooses Shibo? If so, I'll find an opportunity to get in touch."

As the saying goes, wherever there is oppression, there will be resistance. He Meng is a man of justice in the army and is nepotism, so the people below will definitely be dissatisfied.

Man Tong really knew one and said, "He Meng has two confidants, one is Mao Dongfang and the other is Di Haiming. A few years ago, Di Haiming fell in love with the sister of Yuan Yu and Yuan Baihu in the army and wanted to marry him as a second wife. Yuan Yu's sister was unwilling. Who would have thought Di Haiming begged He Meng, and then He Meng came forward to propose marriage to Yuan Yu and said to him to marry him."

Fu Jingen really felt that he had gained some knowledge. He Meng didn't even know such a simple truth.

You should know that girls with a little bit of backbone don’t want to be concubines. He Meng said that he would marry him, which is obviously a foe. However, from this incident, he shows that He Meng is a very arrogant person. He only acts according to his own thoughts and ideas and doesn’t care what others think at all.

Qi Xiangdi asked, "What's next?"

Man Tong nodded and said, "That girl doesn't want to be a concubine, so she ran to the temple to shave her hair and be a sister-in-law. It's okay for ordinary people to come here, but Di Haiming threatened the teacher of the temple and said that if she dared to slaughter her, she would burn the temple. The girl was also strong and immediately hit her head and died on the pillar."

"That Yuan Yu didn't resist?"

Man Tong shook his head and said, "Not only did Yuan Yu not resist, he also gave him a distant cousin to Di Haiming as his concubine. The year before yesterday he was promoted to deputy Qianhu."

"Many people secretly scold Yuan Yu for being bored and selling her sister for honor. She is a cold-blooded and ruthless person. But as far as I know, Yuan Yu has a good relationship with her sister. He also refused when Di Haiming asked for a marriage."

Fu Jingen understood: "Shi Bo means that Yuan Yu flattered Di Haiming on his face, but in fact he hated him to the core. If he was given a chance, he would definitely avenge his sister."
