Chu Qing always felt that Ma Rui was a little abnormal. He was completely different from the first time he met him and the second time he met him yesterday.
This third-grade governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, like a big brother in society, turned around and screamed, and twelve officers and eight soldiers ran out carrying fire and water sticks and ten pairs of shackles.
Chu Qing was dumbfounded: "The shop has been sealed off, and I don't know if the shopkeeper has left. Even if he hasn't left, there are only three or four people there, so we don't need to wear so many shackles."
"There are only three or four people?" Ma Rui looked disappointed.
"Well, three or four people."
"Commander Chu." Ma Rui stroked his beard and smiled, and said softly: "If there were only three or four people, how could he be so bold as to mix flour into the stone?"
Chu Qing blinked, not quite understanding.
"I feel that this is a big case, a big case that shocked the country." Ma Rui's eyes were deep: "If you dare to mix flour into stones and sell them, you will make huge profits. You can make a dozen or twenty guan at least.
The person behind this must be a court official, with more than ten or twenty guans, and with such a huge amount, the person behind this must be from the fourth rank at least."
Chu Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He suspected that Mr. Ma in front of him had never seen money before, and he still had more than ten or twenty guan. When he went to extort money the day before yesterday, an official of the sixth or seventh grade took out two or three thousand guan without blinking.
.
Ma Rui was as stunned as a demon, and said to himself: "Ordinary fourth-rank officials may not have such courage to attack key government offices. Among the six departments, there are not many who still hold real power.
Let me take a look, is it possible that he is the Zuo Shilang? Maybe he is the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Personnel?"
Chu Qing looked strange: "Master Ma, are you talking about Li Wenli?"
"Li Wenli?" Ma Rui slapped his forehead: "Yes, if you wake up the person in the dream with one word, it is very likely that he is looking directly at him. He is inseparable from Li Wenli. Let's go and arrest him!"
Even Fu San thought it was too ridiculous. Just for a dozen or twenty guans, the left minister of the Ministry of official affairs personally ordered others to mix sand into the flour?
"No, no, no, no, Master Ma, please wait a moment." Chu Qing was so frightened: "That's the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Do you want to lead a group of officers to arrest him?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Master Ma, have you just come out of the palace? Did you go drinking? Or you were arrested and will be released in less than an hour."
It’s not that Chu Qing wanted others’ ambitions to destroy his own prestige. Let’s not talk about whether Ma Rui drank too much. Even if he had the guts to be caught by Li Wenli, even if the Li family didn’t resist, even if Ma Rui was thrown into prison by Li Wenli, less than one
At that time, the capital was definitely shocked, and the country was shocked. Then the emperor immediately asked Sun An to come forward and release Li Wenli. As for Ma Rui, he went home to wait for help.
It's not that the emperor fell in love with Li Wenli and tolerated his bad habits, but that Li Wenli was Zuo Shilang and a member of the official department. The emperor hated him so much that he had to get the ironclad evidence that stopped everyone's mouth before he dared to take action. Ma Rui was a Beijing official.
Zhaofu Yin, how dare you do this?
"Of course I know." Ma Rui smiled slightly: "In one hour, I'm afraid I have said too much, but in half an hour, Your Majesty will order someone to pass on the decree."
"Then you still dare to go?"
"My officer..." A ferocious look appeared on Ma Rui's face: "I want to make him embarrassed and make him a laughing stock!"
Chu Qing was shocked: "Just to embarrass him, you don't want to give up your official robe?"
Ma Rui closed his eyes and sighed deeply: "Then what else do you think I can do, is to give up my property, my life, my official robe, and at most, make him a laughing stock.
"
"You two have a grudge?"
"Immortal hatred!"
Chu Qing's face moved slightly, Ma Rui pointed at the flour on the ground, his teeth chattering: "He harmed the people, harmed the people in the capital, harmed the refugees outside the city, and the refugees outside the capital, and I am Jingzhao
Fu Yin, he harmed my people, and I have a sworn hatred with me!"
Chu Qing stared at Ma Rui for a long time, and suddenly realized that he couldn't see through the Jingzhao Mansion Governor in front of him.
Since he is so "hateful of evil", why did he give Li Lin's face and send him to the prison in the first place?
In fact, Chu Qing was right that he couldn't figure it out, because he didn't know what happened in the court today.
Ma Rui really doesn't want to be an official anymore. He has long since stopped wanting to be an official.
So this situation is quite ridiculous. An official who didn't want to be a job and didn't care about anything suddenly has a kind of power, a power to kill first and then report later. He doesn't care about his official status, so you can imagine what he will do.
The emperor gave him the power, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that he didn't want Ma Rui to plead guilty and resign.
But Ma Rui, I just don’t want to do it anymore, and you give me the right, that’s just right, I will carry out my “I don’t want to do it” to the end.
Naturally, Ma Rui would not explain so much to Chu Qing. He just wanted to vent his anger for the unknown number of people who were harmed by the Li family.
The Li family became a laughing stock but it couldn't hurt this group of people at all. The only thing he could do, the only thing he could do, and the only thing he could do with his best efforts, was this one thing.
"It's useless to say more. I've made up my mind. Let's go. Go to the shop now, capture the shopkeeper, beat him... and ask for his testimony. He will definitely correct Li Wenli. I will go and arrest Li Wenli!"
"Master Ma." Chu Qing shook his head and said with a smile: "Li Wenli has an official status. Even if he corrects him, this matter does not comply with the procedures."
"Why do I care so much? In a few days, if His Majesty takes back the order... In short, we will investigate the case quickly and I will personally accompany you."
"Listen to me, Li Wenli has an official status, but there is a person who does not."
"who?"
"Li Lin!" Chu Qing smiled treacherously: "The second son of the Li family, Li Lin has no official status."
Ma Rui was silent for a few seconds, then laughed loudly: "What are you waiting for? Let's go and capture the criminal Li Lin!"
Chu Qing gave a thumbs up. This was not "torture to extract a confession" yet. Li Lin was already a convicted criminal. Did Lao Ma take the gun?
Jiang Yuesheng came up quietly: "Zui Ke Ju, Li Lin will go to Zui Ke Ju at noon."
Chu Qing didn't ask Jiang Yuesheng how he knew, because asking would make him look like an idiot.
Ma Rui has already spoken: "Let's go to the drunken guest house and catch the criminal!"
In this way, Ma Rui, the dignified governor of Jingzhao Mansion, personally took his younger brother and went straight to Zui Ke's residence.
Originally, Chu Qing was happy to see such things, but looking at Ma Rui's slightly bloated back, he suddenly felt a tragic feeling.
Jiang Yuesheng sighed and said softly: "Master Ma, I can't bear it anymore after all."
"Forbearance?"
"Yes, with Mr. Ma's talent, knowledge and political achievements, he could have been admitted to the Sixth Ministry as a minister, and even going to the Nine Temples to be a minister would have been a no-brainer, but he has been serving as the thankless governor of Jingzhao Mansion. Come to think of it,
, it is precisely because only the governor can do something for the people in the capital."
Hearing this, Chu Qing could no longer stand and waved his arms in the same way: "Brothers, let's go and stay in the drunken guest house and help Jingzhao Mansion capture Li Lin's little bk!"
