Chapter 868: Li Zhi, who is ruined

After waiting for the news in Linqingzhou, Wang Tong was going to continue to set off north and inform Lu Ruomei, which was also a response to Lu Ruomei's request for revenge from the king that day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

According to the news passed by the maid, Lu Ruomei cried silently there for an afternoon, and fell asleep in the evening, and when the team set off the next day, Wang Tong saw her again, and the girl had a smile on her face, and her complexion was much better.

Leaving Qingzhou and passing through Texas, and then going north by Hejian Mansion, this journey is very familiar to Wang Tong and his cadres, and it feels like going home.

When I walked to the boundary of Cangzhou, there was news from Nanzhili, saying that Hai Rui, the right capital of Nanjing, was sick and asked Zhishi to return to his hometown, and the will of the imperial court was already on the way.

With a smile on Lu Ruomei's face and Hai Rui's resignation, it is a reason that they have been entangled for many years, and there is no need to continue to insist on many things.

Li Zhi was originally the most dazzling new star in the political arena, a disciple of Zhang Siwei, the first assistant of the cabinet, and stood at the forefront of the struggle between Zhang Siwei and Zhang Juzhengyu.

According to the rules of officialdom, he will go to the local governor in the next step, and then come back to be a squire and then enter the cabinet center step by step.

But Zhang Siwei suddenly returned to his hometown to worry about the system, and Shen Shixing became the first assistant, and he Li Zhi naturally had no future at all, and there were already rumors in Beijing that after he Li Zhi served a term in the position of Zhili Patrol, he would be sent to the northwest to be a military garrison, or to Guangdong and Fujian to be a prefect.

Bingbei Dao and the prefect are both local officials who are really lacking, and they have a lot of oil and water, but this position is an insult to a jinshi, especially for Li Zhi, a jinshi from this background.

Li Zhi is also reflecting on why he has reached this point, in addition to sighing at the mandate of heaven, the reason that can be found is Wang Tong, if it is not for Wang Tong, Zhang Siwei will be the first assistant, Shen Shixing will not retain the position of the second assistant, if it is not for Wang Tong, after Zhang Siwei Ding worry, the successor of the first assistant should also be Zhang Siwei's kind person, not Wang Tong.

And Zhang Siwei has been worried for a year and a half, and he will be reinstated in another year and a half, except for the two cabinet members in the DPRK and China, the rest of the bigwigs are Zhang Siwei's disciples, Zhang Siwei will definitely return to the cabinet, but there is also a problem, if Wang Tong is here, Wang Tong will definitely not let Zhang Siwei, who suppressed him, return to the center.

Shen Shi is alone, but if he joins forces with Wang Tong, Zhang Siwei will be completely suppressed, Zhang Siwei will be suppressed, and Li Zhi's future will naturally be bleak.

In the current situation of the court, Yang Wei and Wang Xun each have their own teams, and the positions in the DPRK and the central government are not enough to be allocated at all, where they will think of him, Li Zhi wants to take refuge, but they are all rejected very coldly, and his only chance is Zhang Siwei.

When Wang Tong made meritorious deeds and cooked oil with fire, the Son of Heaven had that will, and then let Wang Tong go out of Beijing, Li Zhi realized that this was his great opportunity, and he made all kinds of arrangements after he closed the door for a day.

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 a big tomorrow, and the nobles over there will not make too much trouble, and the real decisive thing is to count on Zhang Siwei's side.

As Zhang Siwei's disciple and most confidant, Li Zhi vaguely knew that Zhang Siwei had a dead man in his hands, and he often went to do something shady, and he also took the risk of writing a letter to try his luck.

When he knew that Wang Tong had returned from Jiangnan and had arrived in Linqingzhou, Li Zhi's expectations were completely shattered, and Li Zhi didn't know whether his teacher in Puzhou, Shanxi Province had sent someone over, but Wang Tong's safe return was enough to explain the problem.

Li Zhi felt very depressed, originally he was also the young leader of the Jingshi Qing gossip officials, but now he was gradually ostracized, people went to tea and cool, and the scholars were also very snobbish.

There was rejection, but Li Zhi didn't dare to leave that group, if he didn't follow the crowd in this situation now, it would really be over.

Wang Tong returned, but there were rumors among the Beijing divisions, saying that the Songjiang Xu family was sent by Wang Tong to destroy it, this statement is too unbelievable, people can't believe it, Nanjing and Jiangnan local governments all say that it is a pirate invasion, as well as all kinds of bad deeds of the Xu family, how can it be possible for a Ming noble, Jinyiwei Dutang to do such a cruel and shocking thing.

But the accusation of Wang Tong is the homework of the Jingshi Yanguan, and it is also a move to make a statement, and Li Zhi also wrote a letter questioning Wang Tong's actions in Jiangnan, which can be regarded as a statement of his heart.

Although the career is gloomy, but the Zhili patrol is still an official with real power, and the relevant aspects of the local Zhili still need to be touched, Li Zhi has been doing it for more than a year, and has accumulated a lot of wealth.

In the past, when I was in Beijing, I had to go to the Qinglou to write poems and write essays, showing my talent, and I might not be able to hold the beauty, but now, I don't have to be so troublesome, I have someone to send it.

If you really don't want to do those dirty things in the political arena, you can still live happily and abnormally, on the second day of October, there is a fire in the house, and people have to wear robes and cotton robes, Li Zhi shook around the yamen and returned to his home, the day before yesterday, a big man in Baoding Mansion sent money, begging him to take care of a field sale, and even better, he also sent a girl bought from Datong.

After tossing for a few nights, Li Zhi felt that his back pain was a little unbearable, so he had to go to the yamen, but after staying in the yamen for a while, he couldn't bear it anymore and came back in a hurry.

Most of the young officials rode horses to travel, even civil officials, but after Li Zhi took office, he made a sedan chair to do it, and his colleagues and clerks were quite envious, and there were many imitators.

In the sedan chair pretending to sleep and recuperate, calculated to the front of his house, the sedan chair seemed to have fallen to the ground, Li Zhi almost fell out of the sedan chair, opened the sedan curtain and was about to scold the sedan chair man, only to open the curtain and stop talking, as if choked by something, there were more than a dozen brocade guards with cold faces standing in front of the door.

Ever since he did those things, Li Zhi has often had nightmares, dreaming that he was taken away by Jinyiwei and imprisoned for questioning, and every time he woke up, he was covered in cold sweat.

But he didn't expect that suddenly the nightmare came true, looking at his official robe, the brocade guard standing in front of the door could already judge that this was the main person he was looking for today, and a person stepped forward and said:

"Li Zhi, Baoding Mansion Gao Shuanghui sued you for extorting money and forcing him to ** daughter, can you recognize it?"

When asked this, no one would answer "admit it", Li Zhi trembled, and immediately said:

"Bloody mouth, bloody mouth, this is a frame-up"

Li Zhi, the name of Gao Shuanghui, naturally knew that it was the big man in Baoding Mansion who sent money and women, and he was framed, but Li Zhi reacted immediately.

As soon as he said this, he heard a sound of fighting in the house, and a woman ran out crying, and when she went out, she knelt down in front of the Jinyi Guard, and cried and said:

"Poor master, this Li Zhi persecuted his father, saying that if he didn't let the slave family send him to serve, then his life would be difficult to protect, please send the master to the little girl."

After speaking, he cried there, Li Zhi's family was in Beijing, and he came here to be an official, but he lived in a house vacated by a large family, this is the core area of the city, and people come and go very lively, such a beautiful woman howls and cries in front of the door of the patrol adult, and says that the patrol press is forced by the adult, and there are really a lot of people who stop to watch.

Seeing that the woman who was still under her home this morning suddenly became like this, and then listening to the whispers around her, Li Zhi felt a chill in his hands and feet.

"Li Zhi, what else do you have to say?"

The brocade-clothed guard Qianhu who came over said coldly, and after finishing speaking, he turned his head and ordered:

"Take Li Zhi and send him to Jingshi Prison for questioning"

Hearing this, the two brocade-clothed guards strode over, and they were about to lock people up, Li Zhi was standing there, and as soon as the people came, he struggled violently and shouted there:

"This is all framed, Wang Tong is a treacherous villain, regardless of the system, framing Zhongliang, this official is just a Shangshu impeachment and outspokenness, but he uses public weapons for private purposes and sends people to suppress them"

Halfway through the shouting, there were a few crackling sounds, but they were interrupted by a few slaps from the front and back of the brocade guard Qianhu, the corner of the fan's mouth was bleeding, and the brocade guard Qianhu said in a deep voice:

"These slaps are a lesson, wait until you get to the edict and then concoct it, my family has something to ask you, why do you think you can do whatever you want?"

After saying this, the thousand households raised their voices again and said:

"Li Zhi, you have been in office for one year and two months, bending the law for personal gain, accepting bribes of 110,000 taels, and a number of treasures, the bitter masters everywhere have already sued Jingshi, go to Jingshi to be tried"

said it so loudly, the eyes of the onlookers were naturally wrong, they were all pointing at Li Zhi and accepting bribes, everyone knew it, but being exposed, especially when it was announced to the public, for a civil official, it was a big loss of reputation, and he would be directly rejected by this group.

Not to mention forcing * him ** woman, this crime is heard, it will be scolded by 10,000 people, and he can't raise his head in the township, Li Zhi only feels depressed in his chest, his hands and feet are cold, and he knows that from this moment on, he is ruined, because the number of 110,000 taels is indeed the approximate number of his greed for ink, and he wanted to cry, but he was punched in the lower abdomen by a brocade guard, retching and unable to say anything, he dragged it away and threw it into the carriage.

The thousand households watched Li Zhi throw him into the carriage, and did not turn his head to say to the woman who was crying there behind him:

"You have to go through the hall again, and when the confession is drawn, then take the money and go home to Liang."

The woman kept crying, but there she kowtowed in thanks.

On October 11 of the twelfth year of Wanli, Wang Tong traveled south for a few months and returned to Tianjin Wei, Beizhili.
