Chapter 222: Be Careful When Involved (4000)



Wang Xuezheng didn't respond, but lowered his head to sip tea.

Cao Fucheng was unwilling to give up, and continued to talk to himself, "I am stupid. One of them is surnamed He and the other is surnamed Chen, so they are obviously not from the same clan. Is she a cousin? A distant relative? Or the daughter who manages the family?"

Wang Xuezheng turned his head to look at the forsythia next to him. It was really beautiful, bright yellow, and looked like a piece of indigestible cow dung.

Cao Fucheng coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and said with a smile, but his tone was obviously more serious, "Sir Wang, why don't you respond when I talk to you?"

Wang Xuezheng then reluctantly turned his head and said "Ah" in confusion, and then he spoke as if waking up from a dream, "Oh, you are asking about Manager He? She is not the biological daughter of the Chen family. It seems that she is the daughter of the third master's concubine and his ex-husband. Her status is not high, but she is smart. When they were in Jing County, Qiao Fangzhi also liked her very much. It seems that he took her as his last disciple and personally taught her articles?"

Wang Xuezheng smiled and shook his head. "I can't remember clearly. Otherwise, when Qiao Fangzhi comes back, Lord Cao will personally ask about it?"

Cao Fucheng's face changed.

The previous prefect was a follower of Li Ge Lao, who advocated Neo-Confucianism. Li Ge Lao wanted to reform it, and the first to suffer was the School of Mind. As a representative of the School of Mind, Qiao Fangzhi of Qingcheng Mountain Academy was of course killed as a warning to others.

Fortunately, the previous prefect was not too crazy.

He just found an excuse from the Marquis of Southeast to arrest Qiao Fangzhi, put him in custody, and after putting him in a water dungeon for a few days, he was thrown on a straw mat to fend for himself. He was given food to eat and water to drink. Although he was like a stray dog, at least he was still alive.

Just at the end of last year, two lines of officials who were obviously from the Imperial Guard suddenly came, holding jade talismans, and took Qiao Fangzhi away from the prison. Immediately afterwards, the prefect was purged, dismissed from his post, investigated, and his entire family was exiled.

This is a signal.

It means that Li Ge Lao's reform failed, and someone else succeeded in restoring order.

Just at the end of last month, they finally heard the news that Qiao Fangzhi appeared in the Hanlin Academy. After further inquiries, they found out that Qiao Fangzhi would have to return to Xuancheng Prefecture in two or three months at the fastest, or half a year at the slowest.

Cao Fucheng patted his broad chest with lingering fear: Fortunately, when the Qiao family fell, he was only concerned with immersing himself in the land of gentleness and did not have the chance to follow suit. Now, even if the Qiao family returns home to settle accounts and take revenge, it has nothing to do with him.

etc.

Minister Cao seemed to understand the intention of Wang Xuezheng's sudden mention of this matter. When he raised his eyes, he saw Wang Xuezheng smiling at him with his goatee raised.

Doesn't this mean that the person who really protects He Xianjin is Qiao Fangzhi - warning him to be careful if he gets involved? !

Minister Cao couldn't help but feel suffocated.

This girl really can’t be touched!

Cao Fucheng stood up by holding the table leg, walked out with his hands behind his back, walked in front of Wang Xuezheng, and snorted.

Like an unsatisfied pig.
