Chapter Forty-Six: The Servants Take People
As soon as Lu Huarong left, Li Zhi rushed to the Tianjin Governor's Yamen. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Stuffed five coins of silver to the official guarding the door, Li Zhi and the official said, "I'm looking for Deacon Sun Youmin." ”
The official got Li Zhi's silver, walked into the yamen happily, and found Sun Youmin.
As soon as he saw Li Zhi, Sun Youmin asked, "What happened to Li Gongzi?" ”
Li Zhi stuffed five taels of silver to Sun Youmin, and said with a smile: "If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, Li Zhi has something urgent to find the governor and ask Deacon Sun to lead the way." ”
Sun Youmin took the silver, with a smile on his face, as if he had seen his own brother, and said: "Lord Fuchen is taking a nap in Santang, but it's okay, you go with me to wait outside Santang first, and when the adult wakes up, I will take you up to see you." ”
Li Zhizuoyi said: "It's all thanks to the deacon's arrangement!" ”
Sun Youmin took Li Zhi into the yamen and walked through the two halls to the third hall. He asked Li Zhi to stand outside the Santang Gate with him, and waited quietly for He Shishou to wake up.
That Sun Youmin does things in the yamen and knows the rules very well. Li Zhi didn't say anything about looking for the governor, so he didn't ask, and stood there silently.
After waiting for half an hour, the two of them heard a noise in the hall, obviously He Shishou woke up. Sun Youmin carefully pushed open the door and looked inside, and saw that the governor was indeed awake, so he opened the door and walked in.
"My lord, Li Zhi, who makes soap, is here, saying that he has something urgent to see you!"
"Oh?" He Shishou just woke up and was still a little confused. He thought about it for a while, rubbed his face with his hands, and then thought of who Li Zhi was, remembered that Li Zhi had honored him with two thousand taels of silver, waved his hand and said, "Let him come in." ”
Sun Youmin turned back and let Li Zhi, who was waiting outside the door, into the house. Li Zhi walked into the hall, knelt down, and then got up and arched his hand and said: "My lord, Lu Huarong, the younger brother of the Qing Military Department, wants to take me to the prison of the Qing Military Department, and asks Lord Fuchen to save me!" ”
He Shishou stroked his beard and asked, "How does he want your property?" ”
Li Zhi replied: "Lu Huarong asked me to hand over the soap formula and textile machinery to him, but if I didn't give it, he took sixty scoundrels to my weaving mill and yarn factory to make trouble. Xiaomin's family repelled his men, and he framed me for provoking and hurting people, saying that he would let the officials of the Qing Army Department come to take me! ”
He Shishou sighed and said slowly: "This Tongzhi Lu Hualin really doesn't stop!" ”
Li Zhi took out the silver ticket of one thousand taels from his arms, bowed down and handed it to He Shishou. He Shishou looked at the numbers on the silver ticket, and then nodded.
"It's okay, I'll talk to Lu Hualin, you go back and wait for news!"
Since the governor is willing to deal with it, the Qing Military Department will definitely not be able to help Li Zhi. Hearing this, the big stone in Li Zhi's heart fell to the ground, and he replied with a smile: "Thank you Lord Fuchen for saving me, and the little people will retire!" ”
Coming out of the governor's yamen, Li Zhi returned home and waited for an hour, first waiting for the Qing Army Hall to catch the fast.
The five catchers rushed into the well, pushed away the guards at the door of Li's house, and swaggered into Li Zhi's house with waist knives. Seeing Li Zhi's family of three in the hall, he quickly glanced at Li Zhi and Li Xing for the first arrest, and shouted: "The messenger takes people!" Who is Lee Sik? ”
Li Zhi secretly said that Lu Huarong's revenge came first, shook his sleeves and stood up, and replied, "I am!" ”
Those errand soldiers didn't talk nonsense, they came up and grabbed Li Zhi, and tied Li Zhi backhanded.
Seeing this scene, Zheng immediately began to cry, and knelt on the ground with a puff and cried: "The poor master spares his life, the poor master spares his life!" We are all law-abiding people, why did they come to us? ”
The officer who was the leader smiled, and suddenly changed his face and scolded: "Offended the second master, and still obey the law?" Recruit your life! ”
The second master in the mouth of this errand officer is probably Lu Huarong, the younger brother of Tongzhi.
Li Xing hurriedly took out a tael of silver from his arms, sent it to the leading catcher, and said, "Don't tie up my brother, just take him to the yamen!" ”
The messenger led by him glanced at Li Xing's silver, slapped the silver to the ground with a snap, and scolded: "Still take the silver?!" Your family has offended the second master, and the gods can't save you. If you don't tie him up, I'll have to eat the board tomorrow! ”
was slapped with silver by the messenger, and Li Xing was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
After saying this, the officer pushed Li Zhi from behind, almost pushing Li Zhi to the ground, and scolded loudly: "You don't know how to do it!" Don't go yet! ”
Li Zhi didn't expect Lu Huarong's people to be so vicious, and he didn't know how Governor He Shishou helped him operate. He glanced at the officers, sighed, and walked out of the courtyard.
Seeing the errand officer rushing into the courtyard of the Li family, the onlookers outside were already standing on the third floor inside and the third floor outside. At this time, seeing Li Zhi walking out tied up, everyone immediately exploded.
"Why did the poor master tie up Brother Zhi'er?"
"Brother Zhi'er's big industry was tied up by the Qing Military Department!"
"Brother Zhi'er has been kidnapped, my son is working in his house, what will I do in the future?"
"It's not a good thing to have money! No power, rich is a curse! Brother Zhi'er, this is the victim of it! ”
Li Zhi glanced at the onlookers, took a breath, and slowly walked out of the house.
Seeing that Li Zhi was walking slowly, the arresting officer pushed him from behind again, pushing Li Zhi so much that he stumbled out of the Li family's courtyard.
Seeing Li Zhi's embarrassed appearance, everyone sighed again, quite uneven. There are people in the family who work in Li Zhi's house, and they have received Li Zhi's benefits on weekdays, and they are even more indignant at this time. However, in front of the people in the government, these people did not dare to speak out to resist.
There were more and more onlookers, and the outside of the Li family's courtyard was surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, blocking the road. The leader followed Li Zhi out of the courtyard of Li's house, glared at the onlookers fiercely, and those people panicked, and quickly separated the two sides to make way for them.
The errand officer pulled Li Zhi hard and told Li Zhi to go outside the well.
After clearing the road, the messenger took a big stride and was about to lead Li Zhi forward, but he saw five officials running in a panic in front of the road.
It may be that he ran too quickly on the way here, and one of the officials in front of him ran so that his belt was loose and he didn't have time to re-tie it, so he only grabbed his pants with his hands and rushed over here.
Seeing the person coming, the messenger who was the leader was stunned, put on a smile and greeted him and said, "Daddy Chen, why are you here?" I'm doing Wei Ji, dad, aren't you still at ease? ”
The official who was called Father Chen heard the words of the messenger and scolded loudly: "Wei Ji, loosen the tie!" Hurry up and untie Li Gongzi! ”
Hearing Father Chen's words, the five errand servants were immediately stupid.
What to loosen? What Li Gongzi? Isn't it a criminal Xing?
Didn't the old man speak, and the second master gave an order, let's get people?
Even the crowd of onlookers didn't expect the plot to suddenly reverse, and suddenly, hundreds of onlookers on the entire road fell silent.
