Before he knew it, Wu Wendao was in a dilemma.

He felt very painful. Should he offend Cao Fengnian or scholars and Shilin circles? This is really a difficult choice.

In any case, it is impossible to pretend to be deaf and dumb now, and he must make a choice.

After hesitating for a long time, Wu Wendaofang gritted his teeth and said, "Come here, prepare a sedan chair, I want to go to the General's Mansion!"

If it were placed twenty years ago, the status of civil servants was far higher than that of military officers. However, now the status of military officers has been greatly improved, and they are vaguely in a row with civil servants.

Therefore, when Cao Fengnian learned that Wu Wendao had arrived at the General's Mansion, he didn't think anything was wrong.

If the soldiers come and the generals block the water and the soil, is he still afraid that a prefect who can only talk to others will not be able to do anything?

Of course, the scene still needs to be done well.

Cao Fengnian met with Wu Wendao in the flower hall.

As the highest official of the Yunyang Prefecture, the meeting between Wu Wendao and Cao Fengnian is of special significance.

But the two of them took a seat with the guest and host. Cao Fengnian picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said lightly: "I wonder why Wu Futai came this time?"

Wu Wendao cleared his throat and said in a harmonious voice: "I heard that Cao Junmen captured more than a hundred and ten members of the mansion. I don't know what crime they committed, which made Cao Junmen angry."

Cao Fengnian sneered in his heart, thinking that it was indeed because of this matter.

If you, Wu Wendao, want face, but I don’t want face?

If I just let these troubled schoolmates go, where can I put my face?

"Oh? It seems that Wu Futai doesn't know much about the story. Since this is the case, I will tell you. These students from the government were instructed by anyone and gathered outside the General's Office to put pressure on me in the name of petition. Their attitude was so arrogant that it was disgusting. I just arrested them and taught me a lesson. Why, Wu Futai thinks this move is inappropriate?"

Cao Fengnian's words were heart-wrenching. He set the character of the matter as soon as he came up, that is, the student members of the mansion gathered to cause trouble. He also suggested that this matter was deliberately instructed by someone. In this case, he pointed the finger at Wu Wendao.

After all, Wu Wendao is the highest-level civil servant in Yunyang Prefecture. Under normal circumstances, those students in the prefecture dare not cause trouble at the General's Office.

Cao Fengnian alluded to the fact that Wu Wendao was behind the scenes, and Wu Wendao felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

"Ahem, I am definitely not going to do this. I just think that these scholars only have a fever in their brains and do such stupid things. Don't bother with them, right?"

Wu Wendao took the initiative to make a step back. He thought that Cao Feng's annual meeting would be a rampant, but who would have thought that Cao Fengnian shook his head and said, "No, no. I don't think so. If no one supports them, how could a few more than a hundred students have the courage to surround the General's Mansion? This matter will be investigated to the end!"

Wu Wendao secretly scolded this guy for being shameless. He was obviously showing weakness, but Cao Fengnian held on to him. Wouldn't it be better for both sides to take a step back?

"The Cao army already had a scheming in their minds?"

"Of course, this will not bother Wu Futai."

Cao Fengnian said very domineeringly.

Wu Wendao suppressed his anger and said, "This is inappropriate for Cao Junmen. The government affairs of Yunyang Prefecture should be handled by our officials. If Cao Junmen intervenes, there is a suspicion of being interfered with."

Cao Fengnian smiled slightly and said, "No, no, no. This matter is no longer simply a provocation. Our military thinks that these students have caused trouble to affect military affairs."

Wu Wendao couldn't help but frown.

The four words influencing military affairs are very essence.

After all, Wu Wendao cannot be involved in military affairs.

Cao Fengnian said that these scholars had caused trouble and affected military affairs, so Wu Wendao had no chance or reason to intervene.

Strictly speaking, what Cao Fengnian said is correct.

After all, the General's Mansion is an important place, and so many student members of the mansion came to surround him, which seriously affected Cao Fengnian's mood.

If the general is in a bad mood, he will naturally deviate from the deployment of the army.

So these students are to blame.

But Wu Wendao was unwilling to admit defeat.

He continued to work hard and said, "Otherwise, Cao Junmen handed over these troubled students to me, and I took them back to the yamen for trial. I will definitely punish Cao Junmen with an explanation."

Cao Fengnian sneered in his heart, thinking that you are lying to a three-year-old child, right?

Who doesn’t know that scholars who are fame and fortune cannot be punished? In addition, Wu Wendao is a parent official in Yunyang Prefecture, so he must have wanted to turn big things into small things.

As long as Wu Wendao takes these students back, this matter will definitely be left alone.

"I said this without worrying about it."

Cao Fengnian was very tough and did not give Wu Wendao any chance to speak.

"There are important military affairs in this military gate, so I won't greet you here with Wu Futai. Here comes someone, I'll see you off!"

Wu Wendao's expression immediately pulled down when he heard this.

Cao Fengnian was too arrogant and even blatantly issued an order to expel guests.

Do you really think that the prefect of Yunyang is a cat or a dog?

"snort!"

Wu Wendao snorted coldly, got up and left calmly.

Cao Fengnian looked at his far away back and spat

When he returned to the back yamen of the prefect, Wu Wendao threw seven or eight pieces of porcelain in a row.

Even so, he still felt that the anger in his heart was hard to come out.

This Cao Fengnian really doesn't give him any face.

If he had just been asked to punish all the students in the palace, he would not have been drowned by Shilin's spitting star?

After all, civil officials in the Ming Dynasty won the victory against military generals, and they almost never had a disadvantage. They not only embarrassed the scholars, but also embarrassed the entire civil servant group.

But Wu Wendao was turned away after being turned away once and knew that Cao Fengnian would not let go easily. He could not lead the yamen runners to steal people, right?

Besides, I can't grab it.

These yamen runners may be okay to bully ordinary people, but if they really face soldiers, they will really have no temper when they meet cats.

Wu Wendao sat on the chair and felt very depressed.

This matter must not be forgotten like this.

He wanted to respond to the governor of Huguang, Du Yingxi, and asked him to make decisions for the people in Yunyang Prefecture.

After he settled down, Wu Wendao asked someone to prepare a pen, ink, paper and inkstone to pick up the pen and write it himself.

He thought about the words and then wrote quickly.

He poured all the anger in his heart on the tip of his pen, and he wrote as if he was a god.

In a cup of tea, Wu Wendao wrote the article of impeachment and read it carefully again. After confirming that he was satisfied, he blew dry the ink marks on the paper and folded it and sealed it into the envelope.

"Come here, send this letter to the Governor's Mansion quickly. Remember to be quick! You must hand it over to the Governor in person!"
