Chapter 181: The Fallen Tree

The three of them stopped together, and Qingmo wanted to turn around and go back, but was stopped by Li Mao. The three of them went out of the small courtyard, and Zhang Zhongqing, the nephew of Li Gongdu, the staff officer of Jiedu, and Li Zhongqing, the military captain of the inner courtyard, and Li Gon, the nephew of Li Xi, the deputy envoy of Jiedu, were whispering there, and the two of them were ordered by Li Shigu to take Li Fang back to the house. When they saw Liu Xuanming being taken out before, their faces were pale and they didn't say a word, the two expected that things would not go well, and then they heard Li Fang shouting for help inside, and the two were even more frightened, and at this moment they saw Li Mao walking out with a solemn face, and their hearts unconsciously hung in their throats.

Among the staff of the Jiedu Embassy, Deputy Envoy Li Xi and Staff Officer Li Gongdu have always been relatively close to Li Fang, and Li Fang also respects the two of them relatively well, so when they learned that the Li clan decided to let Li Fang go to work and retire, the two immediately expressed their concern. It's just that the two old foxes didn't have much confidence in Li Mao, and they were afraid that he wouldn't be able to talk, so they didn't come in person.

Zhang Zhongqing and Li Gondai came forward to wait here, and they also had the mentality of acting at the opportunity, and they would not participate too much before the results were discussed.

Seeing Li Mao come out, the two hurriedly greeted him, Li Mao's current status is below Shangzuo, higher than the average staff, but because he is also a picket, his status is not comparable to ordinary people.

Before the two of them could speak, Li Mao replied with a smile: "Deputy Envoy Li has already agreed to retire after taking into account the overall situation, and he is about to go to report to the marshal." Please feel free to do so. ”

A boulder that pressed on the hearts of Zhang Zhongqing and Li Gon fell, and the two of them smiled and bowed down to see Li Mao away. Looking at the back of Li Mao getting on the horse and leaving, Zhang Zhongqing said lightly: "Is it a blessing or a curse to be young and ambitious?" Li Gon laughed and replied: "Blessings and misfortunes are lurking, misfortunes and blessings are relied on, ahaha, ahaha." ”

On the way, Qingmo asked Li Mao with palpitations: "Playing that play just now, it's so dangerous, the old boy really refuses to give in, can we really kill him?" If you can't scare him, it's going to be difficult. "Mo Qi God Channel:" The tiger returns to the mountain, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles. Qingmo said: "Look at his unlucky appearance, he still looks like a tiger, and he is clearly a poor sick cat." "Mo Qi Shen Channel: "Although he was forced to retire, but he is still eligible to participate in the family meeting, I heard that he is the oldest and the longest in Qizhou Fangli, and he disdained to be a parent as a deputy envoy in his early years, but now he is idle, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not fight for a parent to do." All major matters in Ziqing were decided by the Li clan's clan people's congress, how could it be said that it was not a scourge. ”

Qingmo said with a smile: "Ziqing is the Li family in Yingzhou, but whose family is it, it is not the handsome, the clan assembly said that it can discuss major matters, but in fact, it is just a gold-trimmed wine trick, looking at the bright hall, it actually doesn't matter." He also said: "Sure enough, the clan assembly can decide all major matters, and that section commander will not become a puppet, but look at it, who speaks the most in Ziqing?" "How do you say this, I heard that the Li family in Yingzhou was originally a Goryeo, and when they were in Liaodong, they gathered to live together, which is somewhat similar to the tribes of the Khitan and Xi people, in our Moqi tribe, although the patriarch holds the authority, but without the authorization of the presbyterian council, some major matters cannot be mastered, do you remember the father and son of Moqipai?" Our patriarch has always been suppressed by him. If it weren't for Brother Mao to help him, he would still not be able to straighten his waist. ”

Qingmo nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Although the Li family is after Goryeo, after all, after many years of internal migration, he has converted to China, what you said is unlikely." The two argued and couldn't come to a result, so they looked at Li Mao together, hoping for a ruling, but Li Mao didn't want to face this problem, and replied ambiguously: "It's a disaster to keep it, it's a trouble to kill it, and you can't persuade him with good words, what do you say we should do?" The two looked at each other, speechless.

On the 2nd, Li Fang submitted his resignation to Li Shigu on the grounds of physical discomfort, and Li Shigu could not persuade him to stay, so he had to be sent back to his house to recuperate, and the goods he gave were very rich, but careful people found that Li Fang did not go out after returning home, and did not receive visitors, and there were always some sharp-eyed plainclothes roaming outside his home, and people who were familiar with the inside story of Ziqing officialdom understood that Li Fang was ordered to retire for a crime, and there was no chance of a comeback.

The backbone of the camp system was shattered, the huge body collapsed in an instant, and yesterday they were still plotting to make an offensive and defensive covenant, but when they woke up, they became enemies of each other, exposing each other, framing each other, and shooting ruthlessly and mercilessly. Li Fang worked hard in the Yingtian Shogunate for ten years, and was the master of the house for three years, and his disciples and grandchildren were all over the corner. He is right, killing is endless, and if you kill the camp system, it will completely collapse, and no one wants to see a broken camp and field system.

Li Mao suggested to Li Shigu that the scope of the crackdown should be narrowed: the first evil must be investigated, the coercion should be lenient, and the minions should not be punished, as long as the problem is explained within the specified time and the stolen money is returned, the past can be blamed. Li Shigu completely agreed, and added: Time is limited, and there is no waiting for the expiration date. Under the guidance of this policy, Li Fang's "Four King Kongs" and "Eight Great Children" fell one after another and were sentenced to heavy sentences.

In order to eliminate the adverse impact of this incident on the political situation in Ziqing, Li Shigu used equal efforts to reorganize the Yingtian shogunate, and focused on balancing the forces of various factions in Ziqing, so that all factions had the opportunity to share the benefits. Li Mao investigated and handled the case, Li Shigu asked him to recommend a trustworthy person to be the judge, Li Mao recommended the clerk, but Li Shigu disagreed.

"The show has just begun, this land has been cultivated by people with ill intentions, it is not easy to recover, the new shogunate is completely demolished and rebuilt, and it still needs to be run-in, during which new ills will arise, the clerk is a capable person, let him stay under your account, specifically supervise the Ziqing camp, I will use three years to achieve Ziqing's self-sufficiency in military rations."

Li Shigu was proud and full of confidence.

Staying in the shogunate, it is naturally in line with Li Mao's mind, the cake of the camp is too big and tempting, I don't know how many rights and wrongs to be invited, with his current small body, it is better not to join in this excitement. The reason why he recommended Wen Cheng as a judge was just a false move, so as not to make Li Shigu suspicious of him and Wen Cheng.

In order to reward the meritorious service made by the clerk in the liquidation of the camp field, Li Shigu hired him as the inspector of the festival.

The nest case of the Yingtian Department has not yet been cleared up, and the case of the branch judge Chen Yue has surfaced again, this case is actually very simple, Chen Yue's youngest son Chen Ying fought with people when he was drinking in a wine shop, and injured someone by mistake, and was captured by Dongping County, because Chen Yue was involved, Dongping County wanted to make a big deal small, and did not want the news to leak, Zhu Yong, who presided over the government affairs of Yunzhou, personally took people to Dongping County to take people away.

Chen Yue received a report from Dongping County, and lost his temper in public, claiming that he was to blame for the rebellion, and he would never interfere, and his original intention was just to make a show, but who knew that this delay was taken away by Zhu Yong. Those who are familiar with Yunzhou officialdom know that Yun Governor Shi Zhuyong is Li Shigu's confidant and favorite general, Li Mao can take Li Fang, and Zhu Yong has helped a lot.
