When Li Xiao was having breakfast, he learned about Cui Chengxiu's suicide. Li Xiao was just stunned for a moment and continued to deal with the buns in his hand.

It's all a matter of time. You were so cruel to Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, and Gu Dazhang back then. Now it's normal for people to come after you. There is a relatively bullshit movie, but there is a sentence that is not so bullshit.

lines.

Come out and fool around! Sooner or later you will have to pay back!

When you are high-spirited and high-spirited, those who have been trampled under your feet and endured endless humiliation will never retaliate once they turn over.

After breakfast, Li Xiao entered the capital. The emperor is not a cat or a dog. If you want to see the emperor, you have to make an appointment in advance. Officials at Li Xiao's level must first get a report from the Ministry of Personnel. Then see which bachelor is available and meet him.

Wait for a while. Then you can make a schedule and wait for the Emperor's summons.

This is why Zhu Youjian is so diligent. His brother, who wants to be a civil engineer, often asks Wei Zhongxian to take care of things for him.

When they arrived at the Ministry of Personnel, Han Xu, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, did not come out to meet him. He only sent a minister named Zhou Yanru to meet Li Xiao, a junior.

Governors and governors also have levels. Governor Denglai is also called a governor, but Governor Denglai is a subordinate of Li Xiao. Li Xiao, the governor of Shandong, is different from other governors. According to the Ministry of Revenue, the Ming Dynasty actually has a population of 100 million.

More than 20 million. Shandong alone has a population of 25 million. For the Ming Dynasty, Shandong is indeed a province with a large population.

Governor Li Xiao can also be called the best governor in the world. What Han Xu did was very rude!

But this guy is a veteran of the Donglin Party, and he was the one who threatened Wei Zhongxian in the first place. Being able to survive Wei Zhongxian's glorious years with such a high profile is enough to prove that the old guy is not simple.

It is precisely because of Han Xu's Donglin Party status that he dislikes Li Xiao so much. Li Xiao has always been branded as a member of the Eunuch Party. This guy has a lot of money for cooperating with the Eunuch Party to do business.

Making money. Moreover, he is also a thug of the eunuch party, holding military power to harm one party.

According to the ideas of Han Xu and others, people like Li Xiao should be caught in the capital, chopped into pieces, and fed to the dogs. The imperial court had never stopped issuing memorials to impeach Li Xiao, but unfortunately they were all ignored by the emperor.

Zhu Youjian is a sensible man and killed Li Xiao. Who will guard Liaodong? Do you rely on the Donglin Party who only know how to talk? Stop being ridiculous!

"I just heard that the governor is young, but I didn't expect him to be so young. Compared with you, I am really an old man." As a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Zhou Yanru has no airs. He smiles when he speaks, which makes people feel confident.

The feeling of the uncle next door.

The old guy is not actually old, he is about forty years old. This guy looks very distinctive. His eyes are not big but he has big bags under his eyes. His nose is not big, but his ears are big. He is similar to most officials of this era.

He has three strands of long beard. His beard is so meticulously combed that it can be used as a brush by sticking it on chopsticks.

"Mr. Zhou, you are a highly respected senior. Please give me some pointers if Li does not do well." Being young has its advantages, and you can get praise wherever you go. With Li Xiao's status, who would not say that he is young and promising?

.

"Hahaha! I'm afraid you are not telling the truth when you say you are highly respected. You must know that you were punished for killing innocent old men indiscriminately in Jinan." Zhou Yanru laughed and made a light gesture. The two of them looked at each other.

In Zhou Yanru’s palace, guests and hosts were seated separately!

"The boy is young, and sometimes he does things too well. But many times, there is nothing he can do. Just like this time in Jinan, the former Shandong Admiral Chen Hailong started a rebellion without permission. He killed an angel in a busy city and cut his heart out and took out his liver in a heinous way.

On the first night of the liberation of Jinan, the public security in Jinan City was in chaos. The defeated soldiers and lawless gangs burned, killed and looted along the streets, burning down more than a thousand houses and shops. They killed nearly 5,000 innocent citizens. The fierce and stubborn bandits even dared to attack our officers and soldiers.

Nearly three hundred people from the Gui tribe died in the battle, and eight to nine hundred people were injured. These are all meritorious officials who have repeatedly made military exploits on the battlefield in Liaodong!

They did not fall under the sword of the foreigners, but they lost their souls in Jinan City. In that situation, it was impossible not to use heavy hands. Even so, the boy endured it again and again. He only caught those extremely evil people and beheaded a thousand and seven people in total.

Only a hundred people. I dare to say now that there are still fish that have slipped through the net in Jinan City and have not been caught."

"Oh! I haven't heard that the chaos has reached this level." Zhou Yanru stroked his beard. If the chaos really reached this level, he should indeed strike hard.

"It's good that you can suppress the rebellion. However, you must always have a compassionate heart in everything. You are still young and have a long way to go. Don't kill too much. You will lose your lifelong reputation for temporary pleasure.

Do you understand?" Zhou Yanru was like an elder, teaching Li Xiao earnestly.

"Li Xiao will take your words to heart." Li Xiao quickly stood up and saluted.

"Seeing that you and I have hit it off, let me tell you a few words from my heart. The situation in the court has changed drastically. The new emperor has ascended the throne and Wei Zhongxian is in power. You have to think carefully about how you want to go from now on. Under the great future, you must be loyal to the court and long live your loyalty.

The biggest truth. Do you understand?"

Tell the truth? Zhou Yanru can actually tell the truth to himself. Not to mention Li Xiao, even ghosts don’t believe this. This man is a fierce man who was turned into a traitor in the "History of the Ming Dynasty". There is nothing he can do to the Tatars. But he is extremely stubborn about party struggles.

He was zealous and spared no effort to eliminate the eunuchs. Many more people died unjustly in his hands than Wei Zhongxian.

Be loyal to the court first, and then be loyal to the emperor.

It's a shame that he dared to say it so blatantly. Doesn't it mean that you, the boy, have clearly seen the current situation. Wei Zhongxian is finished, and the eunuch party has fallen. Now the Donglin party is back. Please come over early and spare your life.

"My family is poor and I haven't read much. But I still understand the principle of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. In Shandong, one is to appease the people of Shandong. The more important thing is to support the Liaodong battlefield, expel the Tartars as soon as possible, and restore our Ming Dynasty." Li

Xiao also responded hardcore.

Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism means first loyalty to the emperor and then patriotism for the country. If I don’t follow your way, let’s see what you can do to me.

Taizu said that political power comes from the barrel of a gun. I have a gun in my hand, but why am I afraid of you old coffin bastards? When it comes to talking, eight Li Xiao are no match for Zhou Yanru. When it comes to taking action, Dong Lin

Even if the party is united, they are no match for Li Xiao.

Especially since Li Xiao is now the governor of Shandong and controls the most populous province in the Ming Dynasty. Financial resources, soldiers and various materials will be guaranteed. It only takes a few years for me to become a tycoon. You guys are nothing.

"Master Li knows that he is loyal and patriotic, which is good. Mr. Han is busy with official duties, so he won't see you. Wanzai is very anxious to see you. I heard the news of your arrival in Beijing yesterday and sent the prince to urge you. I will see you at Qianqing Palace tomorrow morning.

"Jia. Originally, the Chief Assistant wanted to see you, but since that's the case, it's up to Your Majesty to say what the Chief Assistant has to say." There was nothing more to say, so Zhou Yanru immediately issued an order to expel the guest.

Moreover, Zhou Yanru also warned Li Xiao, don't be arrogant. You are already an enemy of the Donglin Party. Although the emperor is the emperor, now everyone in the imperial court from the chief assistant to the cabinet ministers are Donglin Party members. Wait for Teng

Take action and deal with your kid.

"Your Excellency is busy with business, Li Xiao takes his leave!" Li Xiao stood up and walked towards the door.

"You're getting older, so don't give it away." When he reached the door, Li Xiao suddenly turned around and said to Zhou Yanru, who was sitting on the chair and grinding his teeth.

"...!" Zhou Yanru choked and blushed. He is less than forty this year, so he is not an old man in any case.

He denounced Zhou Yanru in the official department and let Li Xiao know how serious the Donglin Party is about revenge. Cui Chengxiu died in this morning's scene. Needless to say, the fate of other eunuchs was not good.

Honestly speaking, although Li Xiao is usually close to the eunuchs, he really can't stand these people, which is why Li Xiao keeps a distance from these people.

The fifth master was waiting at the door with his secret service company. The secret service company was dressed in new military uniforms and stood out among the many waiting attachés. Especially since these people were all like Li Xiao, they stood out from the crowd with their short hair shaved.

Everyone kept their distance from the secret service company, as if these people were a plague.

This is easy to understand. In these days, what is important is that the body's hair and skin are protected from damage easily. Now when you meet a group of soldiers with shaved heads, you feel like you are meeting barbarians. Only barbarians shave their heads at will!

"Let's go!" Li Xiao got on his horse. Since he won't see the emperor until tomorrow, he will go back to Tongzhou today. He really doesn't want to stay in the capital. Being so hostile to the Donglin Party means that the emperor trusts them. Maybe those radical guys

, will also mobilize the three major battalions to deal with it. It is safer to hide in Tongzhou, at least you can run away if you are besieged. The tall walls of this capital are ten feet high, where can you run?

We walked all the way back to Tongzhou and couldn't walk until we reached Dongbianmen. There was a sea of ​​people outside Dongbianmen, and at a glance they were all black heads. Even the tree branches on the roofs were crowded with people, even more than at a temple fair.

lively.

"What's going on?" Li Xiao looked at it from a distance, a little strange.

"Today's public trial of Xu Xianchun's case, the people are here to watch. Yesterday, Wei Guanghui was tried here, and unexpectedly the old guy was killed on the spot. Everyone wants to see how Xu Xianchun will be tried today." The Fifth Master is in the capital.

I've been around there for a few years, and I'm pretty well informed.

"Trial Xu Xianchun? Come and have a look!" Li Xiao did not expect that this year would also be a public trial. Looking at this situation, there must be tens of thousands of people watching. The Donglin Party really knows how to mobilize the masses, and it will castrate the people in this way.

Is there any way for those people in the party to survive? If nothing else is done, if they are thrown under the stage, they will definitely be torn into pieces on the spot.
