Chapter 858: Hawks and Grass Chickens

Zhang Dacheng was wearing a nightgown, sitting on the kang and drinking a little wine. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The wine is the best Bailu Tequ, the royal wine Tegong, the market is very rare, each bottle is numbered, drink a bottle is less than a bottle, so it is particularly precious.

In Zhang Dacheng's wine cabinet, there was only one bottle of such good wine, and a businessman begged him to do something and gave him two bottles. He passed one bottle to his former boss, and the other bottle was kept forever.

But today he brought the wine and opened the seal.

The aroma is full-bodied and the wine is crystal clear. In order to match this wine, he deliberately took out a high-quality wine glass from Jingdezhen, which was also given by a merchant, and the price was very expensive.

The wine glass was brought to his nose, and he sniffed vigorously, the wine was so fragrant. This fragrance alone can make him drunk half of his body, Zhang Dacheng likes to drink, and usually invites all kinds of food to banquets, and he has never drunk any good wine. But he also has to admit that this wine is still the most authentic wine from Bashang Distillery.

The liquor made by the Li family is really a miraculous thing. I heard that a few years ago, it was originally invented by Li Chao to treat wounded soldiers on the battlefield, called alcohol. Later, the process was adjusted to make this liquor, which is far superior to rice wine.

I don't know how many drunkards have enjoyed it.

Taking a sip, Ren Na slowly poured the wine into his throat, feeling a heat that stretched from his tongue to his abdomen, and his face turned red.

Zhang Dachang exhaled, cool.

Although this small bite continues, at least the money is always gone, but it is worth it.

Picked up the chopsticks, took some beef in sauce, and chewed it to suppress the momentum.

Drinking wine and eating beef, Zhang Dacheng's face was slightly red, his face was slightly smoky, and he couldn't help but slap the kang table with one hand, and began to hum a small tune.

This will, I'm afraid that Li Chao is staring at the yamen of Shangshu Province with big eyes and is at a loss. Hahaha, this Li Chao, his hand is stretched out too long, he wants to take care of everything, and he really thinks he is Zhou Gong alive.

This matter is making a big fuss, and Li Chao will not be able to stay in this Shangshu Province eight or nine times out of ten. Well, when Li Chao leaves with his baggage, with his status among the officials in the province, he is most likely to be the queen of the court.

Well, I don't know if Xiao Yu or Chen Shuda will take over this Shang Shuling's position, or will it be vacant again? You should prepare a generous gift, maybe both of you should give one.

If you can get the favor from above and give yourself a position as the rear official of the five-room public affairs hall, then you will really become the chief official of Shangshu Province.

Thinking of these bright futures, Zhang Dacheng picked up his wine glass and drank a small glass of wine.

With a bang, the door of the flower hall was gasped open.

Zhang Dacheng was startled, his hand shook, and the cup produced in the high-grade Jingdezhen Li family's blue and white porcelain kiln, which was worth at least the same money, fell. It rolled on the kang table a few times, then fell to the ground again, and finally fell to pieces.

"Presumptuous!" Zhang Dacheng scolded angrily at this reckless rush in.

As a result, before he could scold the second sentence, a group of people had already poured in, followed by the housekeeper in the house, shouting in panic on the side, "Langjun, someone from Dali Temple ······"

Dali Temple, these three words scared away most of Zhang Dacheng's drunkenness at once. He hurriedly sat up from the kang and raised his eyes to look, only to see a group of officials in official uniforms coming in with chains and iron rulers.

"Zhang Dacheng, we are the messengers of Dali Temple, and we are ordered by Dali Qing to come and take you back to the ya."

"Officials, is there any misunderstanding, why does Dali Temple want to take me?"

With a snort, the official at the head had already thrown a volume of official documents in front of him. Zhang Dacheng picked it up, opened it and looked at it quickly, the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, his face turned from red to white, and finally he fell to the ground with a bang.

The official document is written very clearly, saying that during his tenure in Shangshu Province, he was greedy for personal gain, and used public conspiration, etc., the evidence of the crime is accurate, and even the amount of money he was greedy and how many gifts he received were clearly written.

Dali Temple will now take him back to the Yamen for trial.

"Zhang Dacheng, it's useless for you to lie on the ground, get up by yourself if you know each other, cooperate honestly, and go to the prison with us."

"The prison? Didn't you go to Dali Temple? ”

Zhang Dacheng's feet were weak and he couldn't get up at all. A lock made him stupid when he got it to Dali Temple, and he went to the prison, so is there still a life?

As the temporary state capital, Xiangyang now has the same official facilities as in Chang'an, which is very complete. There are several prisons alone.

There is a prison in Xiangyang Prefecture, as well as a prison in Dali Temple and a prison in the Criminal Department. Among them, the prison of Dali Temple, because the prisoners are all important prisoners, and even the prisoners inside have to be interrogated by the Son of Heaven, so this cell is also called the Heavenly Prison.

If you can enter the prison, you are not ordinary prisoners, but if you are generally in the prison, you will rarely have a chance to turn over.

If you enter the prison, it will be a dead end.

"Your case has sufficient evidence, there is no need to examine it in detail, just wait for the final court, so go to heaven first, and when the case files are ready, you will go to court to close the case."

When the case is closed, the verdict is announced. With the evidence above, he can't escape a dead word. Maybe it's a decision, maybe you're lucky enough to be cut after the fall, but it's definitely not alive.

"It's Li Chao, Li Chao's hand. Because the provincial officials are on strike today, right? Okay, you Li Chao, you are so ruthless, you actually want to kill more than 1,000 officials in Shangshu Province. ”

The official of Dali Temple snorted coldly.

"Li Xiangye said, if you don't die, you won't die, these are all your own faults, and you can't blame others. In addition, by the way, Li Xiang is not the kind of person who likes to kill, and there are only dozens of people who want to be locked up and taken to the prison like you. ”

"Only a few dozen people were arrested, but what about the other officials? What is Li Chao going to do? Zhang Dacheng asked.

"Li Xiang said that as long as they return to work in the yamen within half an hour, today's affairs will not be blamed in the past."

"Li Chao thought they would give in, would they go? Hahaha, then he thought wrong, no one will go. Zhang Dabao roared hysterically.

The official just responded with a sneer.

He glanced at Zhang Dacheng a few times, "Idiot, you also know in your heart that it is impossible, when the news of your arrest spreads, these people must be running faster than the other, this will, maybe they are already on the way." Let's go, idiot, it's a good day, but you have to sing against Li Xiang, and you don't worry about how many pounds and taels you are, stupid! ”

The official really despised Zhang Dacheng, he was on an errand in Dali Temple, and he had also heard the name of Zhang Dacheng and Zhang Dacheng in Shangshu Province, and knew that this person had some means and was very dignified.

But no matter how you have a row, at most it is for those businessmen and small officials. He is just an official, and he actually dares to confront Shang Shuling Li Chao, isn't this looking for death?

It's okay to find death by yourself, but now it's affecting the whole family. His crime is certain, Zhang Dacheng will not only be imprisoned, but his family property must also be sufficient, and even his family members will be implicated.

On the road to Yuliang Prefecture, many people rushed in a panic, riding horses and riding cars, as if they were on fire in their buttocks.

There is no way, only half an hour, and if you can't return to the yamen post for half an hour, you will never be able to go back. Some people can not care about that official position, but with the situation of dozens of officials like Zhang Dacheng in front of them, who dares not to go at this time?

If you don't go, you will be questioned and your home will be raided.

Li Chao sat in front of the yamen of Shangshu Province, and a group of servants such as Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, Changsun Wuji, Ma Zhou, Yang Gongren and other servants shot Shangshu Shilang and other high-ranking officials in the province also sat on the side.

Hundreds of other provincial officials are also sitting at the gate today.

In front of the yamen, there was a stick of incense, which was quite long, but it was just enough to burn for about half an hour.

Before the incense was lit, the first officer arrived.

He came on horseback, he ran too fast, and his clothes were not just right, and when he arrived at the yamen, he saw this big formation, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly rolled the saddle and fell off the horse.

Li Chao just sat there with a big horse golden knife.

No one spoke, and the scene was very quiet.

The official was very young, less than thirty, and his background was not bad, and he was a branch of the big family, and he had a position as an official in Shangshu Province. Although they are officials, the officials in Shangshu Province are still good, with good treatment and high benefits, and even a lot of authority.

is usually a very pompous person, and ordinary people can't even get into his eyes.

But at this time, he only felt that his mouth was dry, his face was pale, and his heart was beating extremely violently.

The door of the yamen was open, but his feet could not move.

With a thud, the officer knelt down.

Li Chao just glanced down at him and then withdrew his gaze.

There's an official over there, and it's the officer's boss in his department. He came over and whispered, "It's a quarter of an hour, and your illness seems to be cured." Since it's okay, what are you doing kneeling here, and you still have to ask Shang Shuling to invite you in, get out, get in and do things immediately. ”

The young official didn't dare to raise his head, so he quickly got up, bowed his head and trotted all the way into the yamen. When I stepped through the gate of the yamen, I was too panicked, and I was hooked by the high threshold, and I stumbled and almost fell into a.

More people arrived behind.

They had just seen the officer kneeling, so when they dismounted, their first action was to kneel down with a thud.

Then, the officer's boss will come out, either in charge or in charge, and wait for him, and take the subordinate away.

More than a quarter of an hour.

A large number of people knelt in front of the yamen of Shangshu Province, one was led away, and another knelt.

Then they were led away, and every officer secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he got up.

After the last person was also taken away by the officials, the front of the yamen returned to its previous appearance.

A group of officials stood next to Li Chao and other prime ministers.

Li Chao looked up at the incense, and only burned more than half of it.

"Are they all back?" He asked.

"Hui Linggong, except for the dozens of criminals who were taken away by Dali Temple, the remaining more than 1,000 people have all returned." An official took the register and reported to Li Chao.

Li Chao nodded, "Very good, then we will all go back to the yamen, go back to their respective posts, and do things seriously." ”

After speaking, Li Chao was the first to get up and enter the yamen of Shangshu Province.
