Chapter 87 Conquer
With a swish, Li Jinglong's back was covered in cold sweat.
Xuyi is his hometown of Li family, and the land was sealed with the Duke of Cao State, and the farmers were all there. He knew about the invasion of farmland, mountains and forests, but it was not considered invasion. It was secretly operated from the local officials.
Li Jinglong was not stupid. He knew best what the old emperor hated, and he didn't dare to rob it from the farmers. He could only spend a few small amount of money from the local governments to change the farmland ponds into his family. It turned out that the good land on the official land book turned into wasteland.
He replaced the pillars and took advantage of the court. Besides, it was the local officials who curled up to him, and it was not what he took the initiative to ask for.
But the ones who came forward with this matter were all his butlers. How could the censor find out that he was exposed to the old emperor?
Li Jinglong said in his heart, it's over, it's over, I have to think of a solution quickly, let the old man raise it high and let it go gently.
Just as I was thinking, suddenly, my head buzzed like a thunderous thunder.
In addition, you also indulge your slaves in buying and selling private salt. The 10,000 kilograms of private salt transported from Yunnan are sold in Huaixi, right? Zhu Yunqi suddenly shouted loudly.
No, I am wronged! Li Jinglong shouted loudly, but then lowered his head again, as if he was a little uncertain.
In fact, this is someone else's sin, and Zhu Yunyu took it and placed it directly on his head. But how many of the founding heroes in this year and this year had clean under their butts?
If someone else did this, you, Li Jinglong, must have done it too.
Zhu Yunxiu was right. At this time, Li Jinglong was checking in his mind whether his family had sold so much private salt in recent years.
It seems that there have been several times, but the butler also came forward, and he was in a panic and couldn't remember it at all.
With just two bangs, Zhu Yunyu slapped the memorial in his hand loudly on the table.
You said you were wronged? This is the memorial written by the Censor of the Inspectorate. It is clear when and where every item is! Zhu Yunxiu said loudly, is it the Censor of the Inspectorate wronged you, or is it the Emperor's Grandpa wronged you?
Minister...Li Jinglong was shocked and speechless.
Forget this, look at this!
Zhu Yunyu opened the memorial, and the dense handwriting on it was swaying in front of Li Jinglong's eyes a few steps away. The latter glanced at it a few times and was immediately frightened again.
The handwriting on the first line above actually contains the name of the general, and then the Marquis of Wuding Guo Ying.
When he wanted to watch it again, Zhu Yunxiu slapped the memorial again and threw the memorial on the table, as loud as a whip.
It doesn’t count if you occupy land, you still have to kill people! Zhu Yunxiu said sternly, your slave privately kills farmers who refuse to surrender to your family, and five men and women are buried in your farm!
No...maybe! Li Jinglong was panicked and felt unsure.
Everyone knows the virtues of the high-ranking slaves who are noble and noble. They can't help but have the one who likes other people's fields and robs them under their own name. They can't help but have the one who kills thousands of swords to do these things privately.
The memorials have been submitted and the old emperor has read them. How can there be fakes?
Grandpa Emperor often said that my Zhu family was born into a poor family, and the one who was most despised as an official, the one who had power and the rich bullied the people. As a royal relative, you not only bullied them, but also caused human lives. The place where human lives was also the place where Grandpa Emperor raised an army back then.
Didn’t you let the people of Huaixi poke the backbone of my Zhu family? In order to locate the land, to locate the mountains and forests, and to make money, you actually did such unfaithful and unfilial things?
Grandpa Emperor made you so angry that he couldn't even eat dinner. If I hadn't stopped you, you would have been to the imperial prison long ago. If I hadn't stopped you, the Jinyiwei would have searched your house at your house!
In terms of public or private affairs, no matter the laws of nature or national laws, how can you tolerate it?
You keep telling the will of your duty to the minister, this is your duty? Your duty is to deceive the king, to steal the countryside, to harm human life? Well?
Your Highness! During Zhu Yunxi's stern shout, Li Jinglong could no longer hold on and knelt down and burst into tears. At this time, he could not remember these things. Is it his family doing, but I was so panicked that I was confused. I deserve to die. Please give me a hand in my heart. For the sake of the prince and me, I will give me a hand!
If Gu didn't want to pull you, would he still call you? Zhu Yunxiu sat down again and refused to see him. Grandpa Huang was furious and Gu persuaded him to stop. Although he did not hand over to the Jinyiwei, he also had to hand over to the Three Divisions and one!
Sansi? That's not much better? The censors and civil servants of Dali Temple and the Inspectorate were disliked by ten thousand of these military officials.
Your Highness...
Zhu Yunxiu stretched out his hand to stop Li Jinglong's voice. The Three Divisions will try you, which is also a crime of raiding your home and seizing your posts and exiling you. As he said that, he paused, but...
Your Highness saves me, but I know I am wrong! Li Jinglong kowtowed.
You are so scared! I guess you have done a lot of these things behind your back!
Zhu Yunxiu felt so angry that he was so angry that he was not in charge of the family, so he could only follow the old man's wishes.
After being kept in a silence, I continued to say, but Grandpa Huang said that after all, you are a hero, and the blood of the Zhu family is also flowing from the body.
Yes, yes, my father is the old emperor's nephew, I also want to call the crown prince to call me cousin, and I also have royal blood on my body... Li Jinglong kowtowed repeatedly and said.
If you don’t look at the monk’s face, you will see the Buddha’s face! Zhu Yunxiu continued to say, just take the post and don’t need to be exiled.
Li Jinglong was about to thank him, but when he heard Zhu Yunyu speak, he suddenly burst into tears.
But? You always have to give the world an explanation for these things. You can't attack Duke Cao's title anymore. I think Grandpa Huang means to choose someone from your brother and inherit the title.
After all, this title was won by your father and grandfather, and you will be sorry for your father if you take it back. As for you, just be an ordinary citizen!
Your Highness, Your Highness! Li Jinglong cried and shouted, "Let me talk to you again, please help me!"
Once a person has tasted the taste of power, it is even more uncomfortable to be a commoner than to kill him. He is not his father's only son, and he can inherit this position just because he is the legitimate son.
If the title falls on the heads of other concubines, maybe they will have to roll their eyes and suffer a lot of grievances in the future.
Without the title, he would move out of the Duke Cao's Mansion. Without the title, the Li family's property does not belong to him, and even the servants in the family will not look at him directly.
Without the title, how can he live in the second half of his life?
Li Jinglong climbed to Zhu Yunyu's table, grabbed the table and cried, "Your Highness, for your cousin's sake, I will help you with me."
Gu wanted to help, but why did Gu talk to Grandpa Huang? After gaining the right to speak, Zhu Yunqi subtly turned his name into Gu.
You must have a way. The old emperor loves you the most. It is said that you want to be the grandson!
Shut up! Zhu Yunxiu slapped the table, can you say this?
Damn me! Li Jinglong gave himself two mouths. I am a warrior, and I speak out loud and say whatever I have. Your highness will definitely not be calculating with me, but I am talking about my heart. Who is worthy of this position except you?
As he said that, he kowtowed again, Your Highness, you help me, as long as I help me pass this hurdle, I am willing to go through fire and water for you!
If it weren't for your fool, I really didn't want to see your ugly appearance!
Zhu Yunxiu sneered in his heart, but pretended to be entangled on his face. In fact, there is no way out!
Your Highness, what can I do? Li Jinglong looked up in surprise.
Come here! Zhu Yunxiu seemed to have made a great decision.
Li Jinglong walked on his knees and climbed to Zhu Yunxiu's side. The latter leaned slightly on the chair and whispered, "The law does not punish the public, you know!"
I understand! Li Jinglong nodded, and the chicken was like eating rice.
The memorial not only contains you, but also Marquis Guo, Marquis Jingchuan, Duke Song... These are all the meritorious officials of our Ming Dynasty.
Yes Yes Yes! Li Jinglong ate rice with chicken again.
I am also giving you a chance to be a good person. The three officials will review this place. I will find a way to delay it for a few days. You can go and have a revelation with them, and then give the emperor a confession, and then spit out the occupied fields, tenants, etc.
All my friends retreated! Li Jinglong said with his eyes shining.
The more you retreat, the better. It is said that the court is in a difficult situation now, and it is useless to keep so many fields in your family. So, I might as well take them out and hand them over to the court. In this way, Grandpa Huang is relieved. Once you have a good reputation, the censor will not be so obedient!
I will go back and discuss with several marquis! Li Jinglong said quickly, I will ask someone to write a memorial immediately!
Pa, Zhu Yunxiu hit him on the head, just like the old man, knocking him on chestnuts for no reason.
Are you stupid? Is there anyone help with this kind of thing? I wrote it myself. If it were you, I would like to write it in blood. I want Grandpa and officials to see your sincerity, do you know?
I am stupid! Li Jinglong is like a puppet now. He said everything Zhu Yunxiu said.
Remember, let’s talk to those old ministers and convey the meaning, and then you will submit the memorials and hand over the land and population. Do you understand? Zhu Yunhuang said again.
I understand, I will set off now!
Well! Zhu Yunxiu sat upright and went straight. He did it beautifully. It was a good thing. Gu would also talk to you in front of Grandpa Emperor!
As he said that, his eyes fell on the gift box that Li Jinglong was holding in front of entering the door. What was that thing!
I heard that Your Highness summoned him and brought some medicinal materials to Your Highness from home. Although it is not expensive, it is dug out from the old forest in the countryside. I heard that Your Highness reads books until late at night, and it is dark and the lights are dark, so I am worried about Your Highness's eyes.
Li Jinglong said that he was sincere and thoughtful, and his folk remedies were the most eye-protection.
This person is really good at engaging in battle!
Zhu Yunxiu sneered speechlessly, saying, knowing how to coax, pretend, and playing with such heartwarming methods. It is difficult to fall underdeveloped when encountering a little white rat emperor.
Now use you first and let those old ministers take me back.
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxiu thought of Lan Yu, who had not yet returned to the court and ranked first in the memorials.
Uncle, even if I use you, I will kill you, the arrogant and domineering person first!
