Chapter 868: Li Zhi, a disgraced
Chapter 868: The Disgraced Li Zhi
After Linqingzhou received this news, Wang Tong was about to set off north and inform Lu Ruomei of the message, which was also a response to Lu Ruomei's request for Wang Tong to take revenge on that day.
According to the news conveyed by the maid, Lu Ruomei cried silently for an afternoon and fell asleep again in the evening. When the brigade set off the next day, Wang Tong saw her again. The girl had a smile on her face and her complexion improved a lot.
After leaving Qingzhou and passing Dezhou, then heading north on Hejianfu. This journey is very familiar to Wang Tong and his men, and they feel like they are going home.
When he reached the territory of Cangzhou, news came from Nanzhili that Hai Rui, the right censor of Nanjing, reported that Hai Rui, the right assistant censor, reported his illness and asked to retire and return home. The imperial court's order was already on the way. Hai Rui was the left censor of Nanjing, and then allowed him to retire.
It is the same as Hai Rui's resignation on his face. He has been entangled with their wishes for many years, so there is no need to continue to stick to many things.
The Zhili Inspector Li Zhi was originally the most dazzling new star in politics. The disciple of the cabinet chief Zhang Siwei, who stood at the forefront in the battle between Zhang Siwei and Zhang Juzheng's remnants, joined forces and submitted memorials to attack. When Zhang Siwei won a complete victory, he was also appointed as the Zhili Inspector.
The inspector's grade is not high, but it is a good position to jump and get promoted. According to the official rules, the next step is that he may go to the local area to be a governor, then come back to be a minister and then enter the cabinet center step by step.
But Zhang Siwei suddenly returned to his hometown to follow the rules and Shen Shixing became the chief minister. Naturally, Li Zhi had no future. There were rumors in the capital that after he served as a position in the Zhili patrol, he would be sent to the northwest to be a military preparatory road, or to Guangdong and Fujian as a prefect.
The military officials and the prefect are both lacking local officials, with a lot of money, but this position is an insult to a Jinshi, especially Li Zhi, who was born as a Jinshi.
Li Zhi was also reflecting on why he had reached this point. In addition to lamenting the destiny, the reason he could find was Wang Tong. If it weren't for Wang Tong and Zhang Siwei became the chief assistant, Shen Shixing would not retain the position of secondary assistant. If it weren't for Wang Tong, Zhang Siwei would have succeeded as the chief assistant after Zhang Siwei's Dingyou, the one who succeeded Zhang Siwei, not Wang Tong.
Moreover, Zhang Siwei has been in the middle of one year and a half, and will resume in another one and a half years. Except for the two cabinets, the other big bosses in the court are Zhang Siwei's disciples. Zhang Siwei will definitely return to the cabinet, but there is also a problem. If Wang Tong is there, Wang Tong will definitely not let Zhang Siwei, who suppresses himself, return to the center.
Shen Shixing has a single force, but if he works with Wang Tong, Zhang Siwei will be completely suppressed. Zhang Siwei will be suppressed, and Li Zhi's future will naturally be dark.
At present, Yang Wei and Wang Lin each have their own teams, and the position in the middle of the court is not enough. There will be thought of him. Li Zhi wants to surrender, but he is rejected coldly. His only chance is Zhang Siwei.
Wang Tong was a great success, but when the fire was cooking oil, the emperor had the will. Then he asked Wang Tong to leave the capital. Li Zhi realized that this was his great opportunity. After he closed the door for a day, he made various arrangements.
But the means of fanning the flames are limited after all, and there is another pattern in the Nanjing area. After all, it is still the world of tomorrow. The nobles there will not make too much trouble. The real decisive thing is to count on Zhang Siwei.
As Zhang Siwei's disciple and his most confidant, Li Zhi vaguely knew that Zhang Siwei had a dead soldier in his hands and often did shameful things. He also took the risk of writing a letter to try his luck.
When Li Zhi knew that Wang Tong had returned from Jiangnan and had arrived in Linqingzhou, his expectation in his heart was completely shattered. He did not know whether his teacher in Puzhou, Shanxi sent someone to him. Li Zhi didn't know, but Wang Tong's return was safe enough to explain the problem.
Li Zhi felt very depressed. He was originally a young leader of the rumor in the capital, but now he is gradually rejected. When people leave, the tea is cold, and the scholars are also very snobbish.
Li Zhi was rejected by the other side, but he did not dare to leave that group. If he did not follow the crowd in this situation, he would be really over.
When Wang Tong returned, there were rumors in the capital that Wang Tong sent someone to destroy the Xu family in Songjiang. This statement was too incredible and unbelievable. The local governments in Nanjing and Jiangnan said that it was attacked by pirates, and the Xu family's various bad deeds. How could a great Emperor Ming Dynasty, the capital of the Jinyiwei do such a ruthless and shocking thing?
However, the accusation against Wang Tong was the homework of the censors in the capital and also a move to show their position. Li Zhi also wrote a memorial questioning Wang Tong's actions in Jiangnan, which was regarded as a sign of his thoughts.
Although his career was dark, the Zhili Inspector was still an official with real power, and he still had to manage relevant aspects in Zhili. After working for more than a year, Li Zhi had accumulated a considerable wealth.
When I was in the capital, I had to go to brothels to recite poems and write articles to show my talent, but I might not be able to bring my beauty back. Now, there is no need to be so troublesome, and someone will send it to me.
If you really don’t want the dirty things in politics, you can still be extremely happy. On the second day of October, fire was already in the house, and people had to wear fur and cotton robe. Li Zhi wandered around the yamen and returned to his home. The day before yesterday, a great man from Baoding Mansion sent money and asked him to take care of a property transaction. What’s even better was that he also sent a girl he bought from Datong.
After struggling for a few nights, Li Zhi felt a little sore in his back and back pain, so he had to go to the yamen to take a walk. However, after staying in the yamen for a while, he thought about the women at home, and couldn't bear it, so he came back in a hurry.
Most young officials rode horses for transportation, even civil servants. However, after Li Zhi got to office, he got a sedan chair. His colleagues were quite envious and many imitated him.
I was sleeping in the sedan chair to rest in peace, and when I arrived at my door, the sedan chair seemed to fall to the ground. Li Zhi almost fell out of the sedan chair. He lifted the curtain and cursed the sedan chair, but stopped talking as if he was choking on something. There were more than a dozen Jinyiwei with cold faces standing in front of the door.
Since doing those things, Li Zhi has often had nightmares, dreaming that he was taken away by the Jinyiwei and was questioned for punishment. Every time he woke up, he was covered in cold sweat.
But unexpectedly, the nightmare suddenly came true. Looking at his official robe, the Jinyiwei standing in front of the door could already tell that this was the real master we were looking for today. One of them stepped forward and said:
"Li Zhi, Gao Shuanghui, Baoding Mansion, sued you for extorting money and forcing him to *** girl, do you agree?"
When asked about this, no one would answer "recognize". Li Zhi shivered all over and immediately spoke:
"It's a false accusation"
Li Zhi, the name of Gao Shuanghui, naturally knew that it was the hero who gave money to women in Baoding Mansion. He was framed by someone, and Li Zhi immediately reacted.
As soon as he said this, he heard a quarrel in the mansion. A woman ran out crying and shouting. When she went out, she knelt down in front of the Jinyiwei and cried and said:
"Master, Li Zhi forced his father and said that if he didn't let the slave send him to serve him, his life would be difficult. Please, please make the decision for the little girl."
After saying that, he burst into tears. Li Zhi's family was in the capital and came here to be an official. He only lived in a vacant house of a wealthy family. This was the core area of the city, and people were very lively. Such a beautiful woman was crying loudly in front of the patrol gate, saying that the patrol was forcing her to force her to watch. There were really many people stopping and watching.
Seeing the woman who was still politely enjoying her family this morning suddenly become like this, and then listening to the faint whispers around her, Li Zhi felt a chill in his hands and feet.
"Li Zhi, what else do you have to say?"
The Jinyiwei Qianhu who came over said coldly, turned his head and ordered:
"Take Li Zhi and send him to the imperial prison in the capital to question the crime"
Hearing this, two soldiers of the Jinyi Guard strode over and were about to lock people. Li Zhi was standing there. As soon as the person came, he suddenly struggled and shouted:
"This is all accusation. Wang Tong is a treacherous villain who ignores the moral integrity and frames loyalty and kindness. This official just wrote a memorial to impeach righteousness and speak out for the righteous, but he used the public and private use and sent someone to suppress it."
Half of his words were shouted, but he was interrupted by the Jinyiwei Qianhu slapped the front and back, and the corners of the slap of the mouth bleed. The Jinyiwei Qianhu sneered in a deep voice:
"These slaps are a lesson. When you arrive at the imperial prison, you will be well prepared. My family has something to ask you, why do you think you can do whatever you want?"
After saying this, the Qianhu said loudly again:
"Li Zhi, you have been in office for one year or two months, and you have been in power and abused the law. You have received 110,000 taels of bribes. There are also some other treasures. The victims from all over the world have sued the capital and go to the capital for trial."
When the onlookers said this, the eyes of the onlookers were naturally wrong. They pointed at Li Zhi and accepted bribes. Everyone knew it well, but it was revealed, especially if it was made public. For a civil servant, it was a great loss of reputation and would be directly rejected by this group.
Not to mention forcing him to be forced to be a woman. If this crime is heard, he will be scolded by thousands of people and cannot be raised in the village. Li Zhi only felt stuffy in his chest and his hands and feet were cold. He knew that at this moment, he was ruined because the 110,000 taels were indeed the approximate number of him who wanted to cry, but he was hit in the lower abdomen by a Jinyiwei, and he was retching and couldn't say anything. He dragged it away and threw it onto the carriage.
The Qianhu looked at Li Zhicheng thrown into the carriage and said to the woman behind him who was crying:
"You have to go through the church again. When the confession is written, you can take the money and go home to be a good person."
The woman cried and shouted, but kowtowed there to thank him.
On October 11, 2012, Wang Tong traveled south for a few months and returned to Tianjin Wei, Northern Zhili.
The typhoon story in Oriental News is very mysterious. In order to avoid a power outage tomorrow, I struggled until late at night, and finally I first spread two chapters and set an automatic release.
Chapter completed!
