Killing a few officials and using the wealth of these officials to make up for the military salaries of the mutinous soldiers, of course, the political envoy knew that this kind of agreed solution was ripe. After all, Qiu Ba has no foresight, as long as they are promised money and food, and let them continue to struggle to live on the line of life and death, they will accept the gift of the court and be used by the court obediently.

glanced at the prefect who had fallen to the ground and had really suffered a stroke, as well as the trembling commander. Shirk the responsibility and calm the anger of the soldiers, these two guys already have it, all that remains is to find a bold person to negotiate with the leader of the rebellious army and announce the just decision of the imperial court.

Who is this man? The envoy glanced at the full room of officials, and all of them took a step back nervously. Because everyone knows that the angry soldier has already killed the red eye, and whoever goes at this time is a dead end.

Just when no one stood up, Feng Ru, the Hangzhou County sitter of Dongchang, stood up proudly, first glanced at those ministers with contempt, and then said to the eunuchs and political envoys who guarded the town: "It's all small and ineffective, and they have failed the emperor and the nine thousand years old. ”

Gonggong Li, the eunuch guarding the town, glanced at his subordinate Feng Ru and commented with satisfaction: "This country belongs to our emperor's family, and we still need to do it. ”

was slapped and humiliated in the face like this, and those civil servants who have always claimed to be loyal to the monarch and patriotic did not come out to oppose fiercely, but expressed a burst of relief.

The hundred households of Jinyiwei also knew that they were in a catastrophe this time, if they fought in the back, although they could not reduce their guilt, but at least they could let their own family get rid of their crimes, so they also stood up proudly: "I am the emperor's pro-army, and I have been grateful to the emperor for a long time, this is the time to repay the emperor's grace, and I will go with my family." ”

The eunuch who guarded the town suddenly got up and clapped his hands: "The truth is seen in adversity, and only then can the people of the world see who is the most loyal to the emperor and who is most responsible for this Ming Dynasty." Cut off the two of you, and no matter what the outcome is, I will pay for the two of you. Once the two of you don't happen, your family will be my family. Then he picked up the tea that was already cold next to him, and compared it with the two: "Replace wine with tea, think it is strong." ”

The two men bowed to the end, then took three steps back, turned and strode away.

Seeing the two of them go away, the eunuch couldn't help but sigh: "Lord Bu Political Envoy, let's stop staying here, let's go to other yamen to have a look, stabilizing the officialdom and people's hearts is fundamental." ”

The political envoy has long since run out of ideas, and he will do whatever the eunuch says, without the slightest opinion. Of course, I don't dare to be the slightest assertive. The envoy who followed him did not have the slightest sympathy for the colleagues kneeling on the ground, and snorted coldly: "You just wait and listen." Then he chased after the eunuch guarding the town, and then proposed with a flattering face: "It's not safe in front, let's go from the back."

The eunuch of the town guard thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, and then a hundred fierce brocade-clothed guards roared through the hall, protecting a group of people from afar.

The people who should have left are gone, and the prefect of Hangzhou, who has been foaming at the mouth of the stroke, suddenly jumped up from the ground, and went up viciously to give this county order a kick, with a hideous and tyrannical expression: "You ungrateful bastard, ignoring my cultivation and teaching for many years, at this critical time, you are ungrateful and fall into the ground, your character is so lowly and humble, you are not even as good as a beast, how can you still be a gentleman?" ”

To his violent scolding, Li Xianling just sneered, flicked the kicked footprints on his body, took three steps back, and then squinted his eyes and said indifferently: "When the humble post was reported to the prefect, you were listening to the play. Then his face changed and he became resentful, "I have been waiting for you for three years, but I can't be invited by you to listen to a play." But just because a salt merchant gave you 10 boxes of gold and silver for one of his brothers-in-law, you are ready to give up this position to that bastard who can only eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. ”

Then he shouted at the colleagues in the hall with a righteous face: "Just for those bullshit gold and silver, forget the hard work and dedication of colleagues, is this the so-called gentleman's behavior?" ”

When this is heard outside, it is really confusing, and it really makes people feel ridiculous.

But to say it here, it is so high-sounding, so righteous.

Li Xianling did not look at the group of colleagues who sympathized with him: "A gentleman has the deeds of a gentleman, and officialdom has the rules of officialdom." If you've broken the rules, how can you blame me for not following them? And this incident was not my fault in the first place. Although I deprived the soldiers of their money and food, you forced me to do it. For the sake of your political achievements, you don't care about the lives and deaths of the people below you. And I reported the matter, but you ignored it and listened to the book and talked about the drama peacefully. I did my part, and this time there was such a big mess, what did it have to do with me? Then he gloated at him and arched his hand: "From now on, don't play official in front of me like this, don't be a boss on my head, today next year is your death day, for the sake of the next game, today next year, I will burn a set of yellow paper for you, which is also my mentality as a gentleman." ”

In the face of such an ugly officialdom, not only did no one feel disgusted, but they stepped forward one after another and began to settle the Li County Order of Qiantang and the future prefect of Hangzhou.

The reason why this is the case is not where fame and fortune lie?

This catastrophe can't escape the eyes of the law above, officials above the provincial level, naturally there are intertwined forces, and they will eliminate the guilt of this raid on the family and the door invisible, everyone should eat their own food or eat, should be their own officials or do it, but they need the following scapegoat.

Originally, the county government was united, and the prefect should not have any major sins, as long as this big sin was pushed to the head of the county order, everything would be fine.

But today's things are different from the past, the county order suddenly broke out, and the matter was done without leakage, so this scapegoat suddenly became a tiger who fought back, so the unlucky one was the prefect.

As soon as this prefect goes, the Qiantang County Commander has foreseen it, although he is also responsible, but at least he will not lose his official position and be dismissed.

It's like this in officialdom, when you're prosperous, you're flattering, and when you're unlucky, your brother who beheaded a chicken and burned yellow paper will also turn his face. In officialdom, there is never real true feelings, some are just related interests, and when disaster comes, it is really not uncommon to report each other in order to atone for their crimes.
