Return to the Qing Dynasty (21)

Is this an investigation of corruption? Is there a bribery investigation of corruption by stuffing silver bills?

Li Xu's age is not young, he has been mixed in the officialdom for decades, what kind of face have he never seen? I thought that there would be nothing in my life that would make waves in my heart, but I still had to be shocked.

What does it feel like he's not coming up at the moment. It's easy, don't be afraid that such a character is coming for yourself. But then it became uncomfortable again. Why? The first emperor was wise and martial and profan, how could he have such children and grandchildren? He was really afraid that the gods of the first emperor would be angry and come back to life in the near future.

It's a complicated feeling, and he himself thinks there's something wrong with him, how can he think that. I've been worried all the time, and I'm finally down-to-earth, and I want to do so much? No matter how good the emperor is, it's also ancient. He can't worry about the old man, and he can still manage the master as a minion. Besides, who doesn't have two unsuccessful juniors. That's it.

Looking at the silver ticket on the table, can he take it?

The Ninth Master has always been straight into it, who dares to accept his money. Although he didn't know how such a person raised a loser's son, but thinking that there was a difficult father behind this child, he really didn't dare to accept it.

Besides, do I take it?

Clearly calling himself harmful. Oops, thinking about this stubble is like eating a fly. How was he sure that this little money could make him do this son without asshole?

But what should I do?

Li Xu had a serious face, "Brother, this should not be a slave, but the slave has been serving the first emperor for decades......"

Honghui nodded in his heart, This is a posing qualification. not only put on qualifications, but also rely on the old and sell the old, and use the royal law to oppress people.

He understood the subtext of every sentence, but he still listened like a good baby.

As soon as Li Xu saw that the kid who mentioned the first emperor didn't have the courage to bear here, he continued: "The first emperor's mind is not a slave who dares to guess, but the first emperor has mentioned it to the slave more than once, and he has high hopes for the descendants of the first emperor......."

Honghui showed a little shame, but in his heart, hehe, who doesn't have high hopes for future generations? This is quite nonsense. In fact, this is a little inappropriate for himself, what Huang Mafa is most afraid of is that these descendants are too 'thick', and if they don't want to play a rebellion, it will be a lot of fun. Therefore, the royal family really has the kind of thing that raises his son in ruins.

Li Xu couldn't see the look in the young man's drooping eyelids, and only continued: "This kind of thing, not only the slave can't respond, but also persuade the elder brother not to think like this." If the slave really helped the elder brother like this today, I'm afraid that there will be no face to see the first emperor underground......"

It's really a little emotional here, my voice is choked, and my eyes are red.

Honghui hurriedly accosted and remembered the first emperor with Li Xu. But I just know that he has seen the first emperor once or twice a year, once on the Golden Festival and once during the New Year. Sandwiched between his cousins, he glanced at the emperor from afar. He assured that the first emperor could not see him clearly at all.

Of course, the first emperor must be wise, martial, and benevolent, and he can't be remembered endlessly.

It's a bitter feeling.

Compared to Hongxi's hard work, someone is beautiful now.

Hongxuan was arranged into a courtyard, the main room of the courtyard has two compartments, of course he doesn't live in the main room, Hongxuan is his brother. This rule must be adhered to. So I chose the East Wing. The west wing was given to Hongtun.

When you go out, the elder and the young are not allowed to be chaotic. This is the most basic upbringing,

Entering the East Chamber, the layout is good, and it is not bad from home. Before I finished reading it, a pair of beauties came in outside the door, they looked exactly the same, and at a glance they were twin sisters. Look at the rules between advance and retreat, yes! This has been trained.

The beauty Wu Nong in the south of the Yangtze River spoke softly, listening to it made people itch in their hearts.

But who is Hongxuan? Don't look at the age, follow the Ama who was called a bastard by Eniang to go out and see the world. For this reason, Eniang chased Ama with a whip and ran twice around the house. In Amma's words, any stupidity can be committed, but when it is committed on a woman's belly, this stupidity is unforgivable. At the beginning, he couldn't walk when he saw a beauty, the women in the family except for Eniang is the mother-in-law, the beautiful girls were sent by Eniang, and there was a sister who didn't meet much. The woman she has the most contact with is Eniang. Eniang is Mongolian, whether it is Chinese or Manchu, the tone is a little strange. Angry and rude, it has nothing to do with gentleness. How can you not be shocked when you see a beautiful woman who is soft and dripping water. But when he turned around all the buildings in the capital and saw too many of these beauties who were so 'friendly' to the guests, he felt cold. When they come, what they see is not a man, but a guest, a food and clothing. They don't pay attention to justice, they only pay for money. This is still good, and there are some ulterior motives, maybe someone sent a spies. Therefore, he deeply understands a truth, although the wildflowers are fragrant, she has d.

Thinking of these, I really miss Ama Eniang. When she came out, E-Niang's body was so comfortable, and I didn't know what was going on. Hearing that the emperor wanted to use herself, E-Niang was happy and didn't sleep well for several nights. Tell yourself that you have to rely on yourself for everything. Amma has played himself out of his life in this life, and if he can't help much, he may be dragged back. E-Niang repeatedly told herself that at that time, don't be polite, and it is important to sell Ama to keep her safe. Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl, but there was a trace of sadness in his eyes. This time, even if it is not for merit, I have to fight for Eniang.

"What do you want?" the beauty with a mole between her eyebrows stepped forward to give Hongxuan a wide coat, "The fragrant soup has been prepared, please come with the slave maid." ”

Hongxuan gave his entourage a vague look, and followed up with a grin, without any shyness. Originally, he was raised by such careful service. "The two sisters look the same, dare to ask what is their name?"

The other has this dimple on his face, and he feels very sweet when he smiles, "It's okay not to mention the cheap name, if the nobles have pity, why not give the name to the slaves, this is also a blessing for the slaves." ”

It's so sweet in the mouth.

Hongxuan didn't know what the two of them wanted to do when they came over, so he simply teased, "I see that this sister's mole between her eyebrows is brighter than rouge...... It's better to be called flattering. And this sister with dimples...... "He took a deep breath, very intoxicated," and called it intoxicating. ”

Listen to the name, charming and intoxicating?

I thought he was an honest good boy who had never seen a woman, but I didn't expect it to be a veteran of the party.

The two glanced at each other, and hurriedly bent their knees to Xie Hongxuan.

Hongxuan's face became more and more proud.

Soaking in the bathtub, two pairs of weak and boneless hands are kneading everywhere on the body, and it is difficult to react. He grinned and teased, talking to the two girls. These two girls are not very old, thirteen or fourteen years old, and their minds are very shallow. First, he asked curiously about the customs of the capital, and then asked about the royal personnel, and his words were respectful and envious. Hongxuan, that is also what to ask and what to answer.

The first emperor once came to Jiangnan to live in the Li family, but unfortunately they didn't catch up with such a grand event.

What's so difficult about Hongxuan? Gai Ming will take you back to Beijing and take you into the palace to have a look.

The royal family must be very majestic, we don't know anyone, and we don't know anything about how it is good to collide with nobles.

The first emperor is the grandfather's grandfather, and the current long-live grandfather is the fourth uncle of the grandfather, that is our family, what is there to worry about. Ye is also a nobleman, are you afraid?

You are so good, is this emperor brother as good as him?

Hongxuan's eyes narrowed, and he understood a little, it turned out that this was what he wanted to inquire about. He sighed twice in his heart, and when he closed his eyes, he replied even more casually, "Brother Huang, it's not much worse." It's all pretty much the same. The emperor is the fourth elder brother, and the sixth elder brother is still breastfeeding, this is not counted, it is raised in front of the queen mother, and outsiders are not easy to see. It's the third elder brother, the fourth elder brother, and the fifth elder brother are very common......"

"Then isn't this third elder brother the eldest son, just like the master. The charming man whispered softly, and asked seemingly casually.

Hongxuan said 'um', it seems that he knows a lot about himself, "The third elder brother is old, and he doesn't play around like his master." ”

"Older?" said the drunken man with a pout, "this slave knows." If a man has a wife at home, he will not dare to come out and play around. ”

"Hmm!" Hongxuan replied again, wondering how to lead it to Brother's backyard. Then there was a flash of inspiration, this Li Xu seemed to have several granddaughters.

He laughed a little in his heart, "The girl knows a lot." But the royal family, which Fujin dares to care? It's not just as decent to give birth to a son. If the son born is ...... with the fourth one", he paused as if he was speechless, and changed his words, "If the son born is born, this should be the birth of the mother." ”

The two girls glanced at each other again, and said no more, only some of the customs and customs of Jiangnan, and nothing else.

When the two of them were gone, he knew that the two of them had gotten what they wanted from him.

Lying on the couch, Hongxuan stretched out his hand and beckoned his entourage, "Find the third master to ......", his voice lowered, and he instructed carefully.

Mrs. Li over there looked at the two girls in front of her, "Really?"

Intoxicating nodded, and went through the previous events as they were, she had an excellent memory, who knew what, and what tone she remembered.

Mrs. Li nodded, "Good job." In the future, follow the new master, don't forget who gave you a good future. ”

The two of them were blessed together, and they answered yes.

After the two of them went down, Mrs. Li showed contemplation, in this way, this prince should be the fourth elder brother. This is similar to the news that my master heard before.

But in the end, he was not steady, got up and went to the old lady's yard, and the old lady was also talking to Hong.

Outside, Uncle Xuan called someone to pass the word to the third master, and the old lady knew the rules, so as long as she changed her clothes, she took the initiative to avoid it.

Hongxuan saw Hongxuan's entourage, signaled to him, and then raised his voice: "What's the matter?"

The entourage followed the master out of the house, which one didn't have a belly of eyes, otherwise they wouldn't have been sent out to follow the master. He stood five feet away from Hong Jun, his voice was neither high nor low, and his tone was not slow, "Our family is called Ask the third master, which craft is the fourth elder brother's wine cup, do you still remember it?" It's the New Year soon, and we can't go back, but we have to go back first. ”

What wine cups?

Hong Jun didn't know what kind of dumb riddle this was playing, but he still said: "Is it so urgent? Wait a minute, I'll talk to him when I go back at night." ”

The attendant hurriedly answered: "It's the one who ate in the palace last time, and the fourth elder brother casually...... Our family seems to be in a hurry, and the third master must go back early. ”

When did the fourth elder brother go? casually, he remembered what he was doing so accurately?

He knew about it and sent people down, but he muttered in his heart, when did he eat wine with the fourth elder brother in the palace? When did the fourth elder brother drink again?

I paid so much attention to unwarranted things, and I came to tell myself......

Thinking of this, his heart jumped, what is Hongxuan implying here?

He sat back and drank the tea on the table as if nothing had happened. And behind the screen, an inconspicuous girl quietly turned to the back, waiting for the old lady and the lady to finish talking.

“…… To be honest, I also estimated that it was the fourth elder brother before...... The daughter-in-law asked someone to inquire and revealed such a tone...... However, this elder brother is from the Tenth Master's Mansion in the end, long live the Lord and the Tenth Master...... The daughter-in-law who is not accurate in the news is not good...... It's the third elder brother of the thirteenth master's family, isn't my mother ......?"

The old lady frowned: "You asked someone to ask?"

Mrs. Li's face froze, "Mother, after the national filial piety, the three girls just caught up with the draft...... The old man can also talk to Niu Colu's family, and ask their family to send a message to Concubine Xi Niangniang, thinking that this thing can be done......"

The old lady was a little annoyed, "Do you really think that these elder brothers in the palace are so easy to fool?" "How about Aobai? Isn't that kind of character planted in the hands of the eight-year-old emperor." Where did the four auxiliary ministers go at that time? Not all of them were cleaned up by the old emperor. None of the royal children who survive is stupid.

Mrs. Li was a little disapproving, "Mother, my daughter-in-law knows that she can't treat others as fools, but what if the nobles take the initiative to show it? Now that she lives in our house, she thinks she should have something to ask for." Since you ask for people, you have the attitude of asking for people. You too, the royal people can't see it, if you really know what we want to do and reveal the news, whether this is another matter. ”

The old lady did not speak, but stopped talking and looked at the person standing by the door, and beckoned someone to come.

This person didn't look at Mrs. Li when he came over, but only learned the situation just now.

Mrs. Li's face was overjoyed, "Look, if it wasn't intentionally revealed, how could it be like that." This is to tell us the identity of the fourth elder brother, so that these people attach great importance to them. "Isn't that what the prince meant?

The old lady waved her hand and told her to stop, "Don't do anything superfluous, stay honestly." ”

After half a cup of tea, Hongjun saw the old lady come out again.

The two continued to be homely.

The old lady sighed with emotion: "When the thirteenth master came, that is, at your current age, you followed behind the first emperor, like a fairy." Now that so many years have passed, Brother is so old. I heard that the thirteenth master has not been in good health in recent years, but now he is better. ”

What is there in Hongjun, the emperor's favor to his own Ama can be seen in the whole Qing Kingdom," ...... The three imperial doctors watched, Long Live Lord took care of everything, and sent someone to keep an eye on Amma's work and rest. I don't worry about this, and occasionally I send someone to check in the middle of the night to see if I sneaked up again in the middle of the night. Now I will raise it, and I look much healthier than before. ”

Despite the rumors, it was surprising to hear about this Fa with my own ears.

The old lady remained silent, "The eldest brother is like a father, long live the lord is really not easy, like a brother is like a father......"

"It's not ......," Hong Jun sighed, "Several imperial brothers are all tasted, it is Long Live Lord who is closer to Ama than to his own son." ”

The old lady laughed, "Strict father and loving father, but the heart is the same." ”

That's exactly what it is. Hong Jun's face showed a little naughty, "It's just that the fifth elder brother is used to being blind, and the long live master is also up to him." The third elder brother has already been Amma, it should be understandable, the fifth elder brother has been a few times, the fifth elder brother has not listened, or the fourth elder brother has a cold face before he knows that he is afraid......"

Long live the fifth elder brother, the third elder brother can't control the fifth elder brother, but the fifth elder brother is only afraid of the fourth elder brother......

There are not many words, but there is a lot of information in it.

The old lady looked at Hongjun seriously, and the child in front of her was still the shy and shy boy.

When Hongjun showed a little sleepiness and yawned, the old lady hurriedly sent someone to send people back.

At this time, Hongxuan and Hongxuan were sitting in the main room, and when they saw Hongxuan, the three of them looked at each other, and they all saw a smile in each other's eyes.

But Li Xu sent Honghui away, and was called to the back by Mrs. Li.

“…… Listening to that, these four elder brothers are already a sure prince......" Mrs. Li was a little anxious, "The matter of these three girls should be prepared......"

"What's the matter with the mother?" Li Xu didn't distrust his wife, but the old lady of the family came out of the palace after all, and her eyes were more keen.

Mrs. Li lowered her head slightly, and only said, "Mother has nothing." ”

What do you mean by nothing?

Li Xu understood in an instant that this was neither in favor nor against.

The old man has never had such an attitude.

Li Xu hesitated.

Mrs. Li was anxious, and hurriedly said: "The old lady is old, and now she has little energy, and she has little to take care of. Let's deliberate ...... again Don't disturb the old lady's retirement. How much does she know about the affairs of the house? You, you are so old that you can still be in office for a few years. The first emperor favored the ministers, this was a good thing in the past, but what about now? When we get out of the filial piety period, if we are still in this office, I am afraid that we will not be able to fall into the ...... It's better to take advantage of the good situation and take the initiative to take a step back. But what will happen after this retirement? What will these evil obstacles do in the family except drink flowers and wine to support their wives? No amount of silver is enough for them to lose. Who do you want them to rely on without relying on them? It is better to take this step, which is for the sake of their future. I don't want to get much cheap, I just want no one to deceive me. As soon as the circles under his eyes turned red, tears fell, "You don't know that if you don't take a good step, the whole family will be harmed." But if you don't take this step, you can rely on these evil obstacles in our family...... Can you hold it up?"

The old wife has been pampered all her life, and she has obviously grown old in the past two years. Half of my hair was gray.

He sometimes thinks about it, and he really regrets it. I really can't wait to stuff these evil obstacles back into my mother's belly and regenerate.

The two sat all night, and when it was bright, Li Xu got up directly to wash, changed his clothes and came out to look at the old wife who was still sitting there motionless: "...... Don't worry, go to sleep. I'm here. Fourth Elder Brother is this matter...... Now the affairs of these three are the affairs of the fourth elder brother, as long as the master assists these three to handle things well, and can handle the errands, the rest will be much easier......"

Mrs. Li's eyes lit up, and she quickly got up to help Li Xu tidy up her clothes and sent her out in person.

The Li family served well, and the three of them got up and laid out breakfast, all of which were the tastes of the palace.

Just after eating, someone came to invite him and asked Hongyang to go to the study to talk.

The three of them glanced at each other and said in their hearts: It's done!

Honghui was not in a hurry, chewed and ate slowly, and then slowly walked towards the study.

Li Xu welcomed people in, and the two sat opposite each other as they did yesterday. But at this time, Li Xu always felt that something was different. He glanced at the young man in front of him seriously, the person was still the same person, but at this moment, he was two more points calm.

No one said anything, just looked at each other.

Li Xu's heart jumped, this is not the look that a young man who doesn't know anything should have, he is so old and spicy, and smiled bitterly: "Brother, why is this difficult?"

Honghui leisurely grabbed the wolf howl on the pen holder and pinched his hand in a circle, "I'm going to come in directly to trade with Master Li, can you trust me?"

Li Xu paused, no! Naturally not! He sighed, "Why did Brother Ah come?"

Honghui smiled, "It's insincere for Lord Li to ask like this." Lord's Ama is a businessman, and he prefers to use the rules of the business field to talk about things. ”

"Deal?" Li Xu's eyes were a little more than that, but it was fleeting.

"Yes! Honghui laughed, without yesterday's incident, he wouldn't have known where the breakthrough on the other party was, wouldn't he?" "You know, my errand is the errand of the Long Live Lord, but it is also the errand of the fourth elder brother." It was the fourth elder brother's first errand. This matter can only be done well, but not badly. After this matter is done, the girl from the Lord's Mansion will go to the courtyard of the fourth elder brother decently. This is your chance, and it's not another chance for you, Lord Li. You are the old minister of the first emperor, long live the filial piety, what do you have to worry about?"

Of course, I'm worried that you'll turn the finger at me. But if the other party is really stunned, he really has to guard against it. Obviously, although this master is not very old, he is not without success. Besides, he didn't have no dealings with the Ninth Master in private......

Li Xu reached out and pulled out the drawer, took out a stacked piece of paper and handed it over, "Brother is so self-conscious." ”

Hongxuan didn't open it immediately, and went back to the courtyard with the note to open it in front of Hongxuan and Hongxuan.

I saw that there was only one line of words on it: Li Yutang of Jiangnan Grain Road.

Jiangnan Grain Road?

That's a fat gap.

Hongxuan's face was overjoyed, "I didn't expect Li Xu to be so sincere." ”

Jiangnan Grain Road is a second-class product, and it is really a fat fish.

Hong Xuan showed a trace of doubt, "This Jiangnan grain road ...... It should be the former Jiangnan Grain Road. This person is not on the list of Jiangnan officials. ”

In this way, Hongyang was stunned for a moment, and then sneered, "This old fox." ”

Then he beckoned: "Go and inquire about this former Jiangnan grain road." ”

As a result, half of the people came back, "This old lady of Li Yutang's family died last year, and she has already reported her worries." ”

That is, the person has returned to his hometown.

Hongxuan couldn't help but burst into foul language, knowing that this guy was not so easy to fool around.

What's the matter?

Call people, people too, whether to check or not is your business, how to check is also your business, if you can't find out, it can only be because you have no ability.

Damn!

Honghui sneered, "Dare to play this hand, the master told him to know how many ......eyes the prince Ma has" beckoned the two to come over, and the three of them muttered again.

As a result, Li Xu found that these three elder brothers didn't make any moves, and they were all in the palace of the first emperor. After paying homage, he knelt under the plaque of the first emperor's inscription, and everyone was holding a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone in front of him.

Are they with you or not?

Do you dare to try it along?

So he couldn't get out of the air. was trapped in the house by these three elder brothers.

I was finally able to rest at night, and I asked someone to come in and massage my feet to pull out the cold air on my legs, and it was really unbearable to kneel down. The butler waited on the side and reported, "Let's all watch it, all the entourage has never gone out in the house." ”

That's it!

But I didn't know that in two years, Hongyang received a flying pigeon message. After reading the content of the letter, he didn't dare to be careless, on the one hand, he sent a pigeon to Hongwang, and on the other hand, he personally sent someone to send it. Only then did he slowly take the letter and find Hongli.

Hongli's brows were furrowed and he could kill mosquitoes, "Nonsense!" He hated not being able to shoot these three unlucky people to death, "The first emperor and the old minister! That's the first emperor and the old minister!"

Hongyang said in his heart: What happened to the old ministers of the first emperor? The old ministers of the first emperor can't move? What is the reason?

He sometimes thinks that Hongli is very unusual, how can such a clever person not understand the truth of what kind of song to sing on what mountain? Why doesn't he understand the truth of a courtier who begs for food outside? He sometimes guesses that the energy that was raised by the former emperor at a young age accounted for too much weight in Hongli's life.

When he was in the house, there was Hiroshi above, and he had himself below, so he didn't have to have anyone more. His E-Niang is not favored, and Hongshi's E-Niang and Huang Ama are naturally deeper. Later, there was Nian's, although Nian's was born and died, but as soon as her stomach bulged, it made people inexplicably nervous.

What changed this situation of Hongli was the first emperor. It was the importance of the first emperor that made him stand out instantly. His self-confidence or conceit all comes from the affirmation of the first emperor.

Thinking so in his heart, his face showed confusion, "What should I do if Hongxuan did a bad job?"

Yes, there is Hongjun in the errand, and it seems that he really did the right thing when he arranged these three people together. At the beginning, this arrangement was made in order to tie the ninth and tenth uncles to the thirteenth uncle, and tethering the thirteenth uncle is equivalent to tying to the emperor Ama, which is decomposing the eighth master's party. The second is to prevent accidents, and no one will take care of them. What if people don't give face to the ninth uncle and the tenth uncle, but the signboard of the thirteenth uncle is a golden signboard, and he can save a lot of trouble.

Now it is used.

If you do a wrong errand, you can do it wrong, what can you do? It's not yourself who is in trouble, "send a message to Hongwang...... "That's right! There is an eighth uncle behind."

The arrangement was similar to what Hongtian thought, he listened carefully, and then ran with his feet raised, "I'll ask someone to pass the message, fourth brother don't worry." ”

Can you rest assured? If the clever gets the news, he should pass it over. He shook his head helplessly, when he met this younger brother, he was a suffering and tired life.

Hongwang was stunned when he received the message, and the result of checking Jiangnan fell to him. 、

This Li Yutang's hometown is in Shandong.

Without saying a word, he immediately mobilized troops with a talisman in his hand, rushed to Li Yutang's hometown overnight, and surrounded the house.

The old and old, both men and women, were first detained, and all the family property was confiscated and sealed.

Li Yutang was stunned, he didn't expect to find out about his family, "I don't know the name of Qin Chazun, what did the lower officials do?"

"Honorable surname? When the word respect, is Aixin Jueluo considered respectful? Daimyo? Hongwang! I don't know if Master Li has heard of it. Hongwang was riding on a horse, and his white armor was shining.

Li Yutang immediately sat on the ground, Aixinjue Luo Hongwang, the only seedling of the eighth master's family.

According to the Lord of Long Live and his favorite, seeing that he is so flamboyant, he will mobilize troops and horses at every turn, and he can't fake it.

But I'm worried, how did I find myself?

Before he could figure it out, Hongwang dutifully answered his question just now, and his voice was very high: "Suzhou weaving Li Xu Li Lord report, as for what crime, you have time to think slowly in prison." Then he waved his hand, "Take it away!"

Li Xu?

No way!

Thinking so in his heart, the whole person couldn't help but struggle, and kept shouting that he was wronged.

"What are you wronged?" Hongwang looked disdainful, "Don't bully your age." There is no one who is locked up in prison who does not cry out for wrongdoing! Do you want to distinguish between right and wrong, or do you want the old ministers of the former emperor to wronged you? I don't know what to do. ”

The first emperor and old minister?

Li Yutang's heart was cold, yes! Li Xu is using his head to please the new monarch. The master has changed, if he still wants to sit firmly under the buttocks, how can he not do what he likes?

Why should you take the knife yourself?

This son of a bitch!

Did I kidnap your wife or did I push your son into a well?

This is to dye his crown red with his own head.

Think beautifully!

That night, Li Yutang listened to the cries of his wife and concubines and children in the cell next door all night, where could he stand this? The wife was the cousin of the childhood sweetheart, the concubine was Xie Yuhua, the daughter was well-behaved and the son was cute, they were all people who held them in the palm of their hands, where did they suffer this crime? Those who called cousins, called masters, and called fathers. The sound is in the ears and the intestines are broken!

The second morning, Hongwang asked someone to send cotton clothes and quilts to Li Yutang's family, and sent hot soup and rice, and then talked to him in the prison where he could see it.

Everyone has a weakness, Li Yutang is willing to confess, and the only thing he asks for is not to involve his wife.

Hongwang remembered what Long Live Ye had said to him: "Those who should be investigated should be investigated, those who should be punished should be punished, and those who should be killed should not be soft." However, for family members who have nothing to do with the case itself, if they are not related to the case after verification, do not implicate them. Do not abuse while in custody. Especially for women and children......"

Therefore, he arranged for the women's cell to be the head of the cell, and the children were with their respective mothers, and they were not disadvantaged by three meals a day. The reason why he cried last night was that he had passed, and only with their cooperation could they save themselves, and if they were lucky, they could save their master's life.

Thinking of these advices, Hongwang conveyed the other party's original words, "...... Huang Ama is compassionate, he has been, you would rather die than leave money for your children and grandchildren, if you really want to do so, you can try. Every account is subject to rigorous verification. If the amount does not match, then your wife, sons, and daughters will be strictly monitored during their lifetime, and in addition, the government has the right to collect personal income except for the basic necessities of life. until you make up what you owe......"

Li Yutang almost gasped, this was kindness, but it was more uncomfortable than killing them. I can endure it for two days a day, and I can endure it for a year or two, but after a long time, who can stand it?

Seeing that his face was pale, Hongwang said again: "Huang Ama has made another move, confiscating the illegal gains...... Hear clearly, it's illegal gains......"

Ill-gotten gains?

Li Yutang came back to his senses, the family property he purchased with corruption would be confiscated, but the ancestral property, the property before he became an official, would not.

He asked Hongwang uncertainly, and then eagerly waited for the other party's answer. The women and children of the family always have to think about what to live on in the future.
