Li Fugui, Marquis of Guangning of the Ming Empire, Li Fugui followed Zhu Hongsan from Wuchang, and set up a merit to save the driver, a total of 23 other major and small merits, and was named a hereditary marquis after the founding of the People's Republic of China, ranking 28th among the 36 marquises. At the same time, Li Fugui is also the director of the Ministry of Justice's Prison Department.

According to Li Fugui's title, he should be regarded as a figure in Beijing officialdom, but he knows that because Li Fugui was born as a nobleman, he is a peripheral person in the circle of nobles in the capital, and he can't enter the top elite circle at all, and people don't look down on him at all.

It is precisely because Li Fugui was excluded that he attaches great importance to marrying the emperor this time. When his son Li Fu and the princess got married, although they were still looked down upon by the top magnates, they had the opportunity to associate with them after all. When Li Fu's son grows up, the Li family will truly become a member of the powerful.

It is precisely because the marriage between Li Fu and the princess is so important that Li Fugui must not let his son's marriage have a little mistake.

Li Fugui looked at the imperial history in front of him, this guy seemed to have premeditated, and he inquired about himself so carefully, and today he was ready to eat himself.

Li Fugui gritted his teeth and smiled: "Hehe, this Lord Yushi is so clever in his means, he will eat Lao Li to death, Lao Li dares to ask your surname, and he will definitely remember it in the future!" ”

Li Fugui still has the last bit of hope in his heart, hoping that this imperial history will let him go if he is afraid of his threat.

But after hearing this, he sneered and said: "Marquis of Guangning, you heard clearly, the official's surname is Jiang, his name is Jiang Huan, and the old Jiang Gong of Zhishi Pavilion is the father of the official, can you remember it clearly?" ”

Li Fugui heard that he was Jiang Yueguang's son, and he was even more heartbroken, he was a serious top wealthy family, although Jiang Yueguang was not knighted, but he had been a cabinet elder for several years, this is really a protégé and old officials all over the world, and he dared to take revenge on other people's sons?

Li Fugui saw that he had no choice but to accept his fate, arched his hand and said, "Okay, please ask Master Jiang to execute!" ”

Jiang Huan saw that Li Fugui was soft, and said to his soldiers: "Come on, the Marquis of Guangning, as a great Ming noble, knows the law and violates the law, and openly violates the ban to walk at night, and is sentenced to twenty flogging according to the law of the imperial court, but the Marquis of Guangning knows the law and violates the law, plus one degree, flogging forty, and execution!" ”

Now that Li Fugui has softened, those soldiers have no psychological burden, and they came up to pick up Li Fugui's pants again and prepare for execution.

Li Fu on the side saw that his father was about to be humiliated, and hurriedly shouted: "Whoever dares to do it, Lao Tzu will kill him!" ”

Li Fugui sighed and said to his son: "Big baby, today is my father looking for death, so don't worry about it!" Li Fu also knew that his father was beaten today completely for himself, and he had no choice but to stand aside and sulk.

Flogging is different from war punishment, flogging is the use of wattle strips to whip the flogging, but the battle punishment is to use a board to beat the fart* stock. Therefore, flogging is much lighter than the battle punishment, and it is only an insulting punishment.

Flogging is nothing to ordinary people at all, it's nothing more than a forty beating with wattles on the farts * stock, and after ten days and eight days, it will be fine. But Li Fugui is different, as a marquis or a court official, he has no face to come out to see people after being flogged, but Li Fugui has no choice but to suffer this insult for the sake of his son.

Forty strokes were quickly drawn, and the little flag headed by him said: "My lord, the punishment is over, please check the punishment!" ”

Jiang Huan looked at Li Fugui's bloody and blurred farts and nodded: "Guangning Hou has been tortured, do you know that it is wrong?" ”

Li Fugui gritted his teeth to endure the pain, and then said, "This official knows that he is wrong!" ”

"Okay, the case of the Marquis of Guangning is closed, please take it back to the Marquis of Guangning's family!"

Li Fu heard Jiang Huan say this, glared at this imperial history, and then stepped forward to carry his father and went home.

Jiang Huan was overjoyed to see Li Fugui's father and son gone, he handled this case today, and it will spread all over the capital tomorrow, and when the time comes, the image of a person who is not afraid of power and enforces the law impartially will be spread in the officialdom, as long as he has fame, then promotion is not a problem at all.

Jiang Huan looked at Li Fugui's back and sneered, does this guy think he can really let them go? Jiang Huan has been in officialdom for more than ten years, and knows that officialdom doesn't talk about being a person and leaving a line, so that we can see each other in the future. Officialdom plays all that is to fall into the well and cut the grass and eradicate the roots. I have already offended Li Fugui, this guy's son wants Princess Shang, what should I do if I say bad things about myself in front of the emperor when the time comes? Therefore, in order to consider it in the future, Li Fugui must be killed.

Jiang Huan picked up a pen and paper in court, brushed and wrote a note, adding fuel and vinegar to tonight's events, and wrote in detail how Li Fu was preparing to beat the city patrol in court. After Jiang Huan finished writing, he looked at the sky outside, it was already dawn after tossing all night, Lord Xu Shimin Xu should be awake after the left capital of the Imperial Palace, Jiang Huan took the finished chapter and Li Fugui's dossier out to meet Lord Xu.

Li Fugui went out of the South Patrol Yard under the burden of his son, and Lao Li didn't dare to sit in a sedan chair after being beaten on the buttocks, so he had to hire a carriage to send Lao Li back to his home in Dongcheng.

When he got home, it was already dark, and Li Fu hurriedly found a doctor to treat his father's wound, but fortunately, it was only a thorn beating, just a flesh wound, and some bone-setting plasters were just applied.

After treating the wound, Li Fugui was already sweating profusely, but he did not rest, but found his second son Li Gui, who was studying.

"Erwazi, you are literate, you ghostwrite for Lao Tzu, write a letter to the emperor, Lao Tzu wants to impeach that bullshit Jiang Yushi!"

The second son, Li Gui, took out a pen and paper and quickly finished writing under the guidance of his father Li Fugui. The twist is very simple, it is nothing more than Li Fugui spitting out bitterness, saying that Jiang Huan took himself to the Southern Inspection Yuan to be executed without investigation, and beat the nobles of the court to the second, Jiang Huan did not put the emperor's authority in his eyes at all.

Lao Li said at the end of the recital: The old minister cried and bowed, thinking that the old minister had followed His Majesty for decades, and there were countless great achievements and countless small achievements, and today he was so humiliated by a low-level imperial history, the old minister is really shameless to live in the world, if His Majesty does not make the decision for the old minister, the old minister will die a clear will!

After Li Gui finished writing, he read it to his father, and after Li Fugui listened to it, he asked Li Gui to go to the General Administration Department and hand over this recital.

Originally, Li Fugui's abacus was very good, he relied on the old and sold the old, and the emperor would definitely be able to call the shots for himself. But thinking that he hadn't gone out yet, the housekeeper came to report, someone came to the palace, and a eunuch came to the Marquis of Guangning Mansion to read the holy decree and let the Marquis of Guangning go out and kneel to greet him!

The emperor has a holy decree, don't say that you Li Fugui's farts * are beaten, even if your legs are cut, you have to get up and kneel to greet you. Li Fugui endured the pain, and with the support of his sons, he went to the gate of the mansion and knelt on the ground to meet the holy decree.

It was a little eunuch from the palace who came, and he saw Li Fugui coming out in a cold sweat to greet the holy decree, and recited with an expressionless face: "Fengtian carrier, emperor restricted: Li Fugui, Marquis of Guangning, you have made a small contribution, but I have already rewarded you." The title I have given you is a recognition of your merits, not for your wrongdoing! Jiang Huan's treatment of you is reasonable and legal, if you don't repent and violate the law of the country in the future, I will take back your title and let you honestly go back to Wuchang as a cell boss! Chin this! ”

Although Zhu Hongsan didn't say anything in this holy decree, Li Fugui was too familiar with the emperor's temper, if the emperor scolded himself in the holy decree, it would really be nothing, I was afraid that this cold tone would prove that the emperor was really angry.

Li Fugui struggled to get up, grabbed the sleeve of the little eunuch and asked in a low voice, "This father-in-law, what happened in the palace?" Why did Your Majesty reprimand this official? After Li Fugui finished speaking, he took out a handful of silver coins from his arms, more than twenty of them, and stuffed them into the sleeve of the little eunuch.

Touching the heavy silver, the little eunuch looked left and right and whispered: "Hou Ye Li, you should thank Feng Ge Lao, if it weren't for Feng Ge Lao, you would be unlucky today!" The little eunuch didn't dare to say too much, so he hurried back to the palace after receiving the money.

Li Fugui knew that something must have happened this morning, Li Fugui thought about it and hurriedly asked his second son Li Gui to take his own greeting post and go to those friends in the capital to inquire about the news.

After a long time, Li Gui came back, and things were similar to what Li Fugui thought, that imperial historian Jiang Huan did not keep his word and made trouble with his own affairs to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

It turned out that Jiang Huan went to see Xu Shimin, the imperial history of Zuodu, and told Li Fugui about it. Xu Shimin is also a protégé of the Donglin Party, and he is also a protégé of Qian Qianyi back then, and he is of course easy to talk to in the Donglin Party. At the same time, everyone wants to participate in this kind of beating of Xungui Reservoir Dog, after all, this reputation is not white.

Xu Shimin immediately took Jiang Huan to meet the cabinet elder Qu Shiyun who was in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and it was even easier to get here, Qu Shiyun was Jiang Huan's benefactor, so he naturally wanted to speak for Jiang Huan, so it was originally a small matter and ended up in front of the emperor.

There is no early dynasty today, Zhu Hongsan originally wanted to sleep back, but he didn't expect to be disturbed by these stinky old nines.

Zhu Hongsan originally thought it was an important national event, but when he heard that it was this kind of bullshit, he was very dissatisfied, so he let Lao Tzu get up early because of such a small thing?

"Master Qu, you are the elder of the pavilion, do you have to ask about such a thing? In addition, isn't Jiang Huan's handling very reasonable? What are you looking for me for? Zhu Hongsan planned to send them away as soon as possible, and he had to go back to hug the beauty and sleep again.

Qu Shiyun bowed down when he heard the emperor say this: "Your Majesty, although this matter is small, if it is not dealt with seriously, the consequences will be very serious!" Now there are hundreds of nobles in the capital, what if you see that the emperor will violate the law and discipline in the future? ”

After Qu Shiyun finished speaking, Xu Shimin said the same thing on the side, Zhu Hongsan was so troubled by them that he asked, "Okay, then what do you say should be done?" ”

"Your Majesty, the honorable man who knows the law and violates the law should be punished by one degree, and the Marquis of Guangning should be demoted to the earl! Li Fu, the son of the Marquis of Guangning, as an officer of the Praetorian Guard, actually made a noise with the Imperial History Yamen, and also beat the Imperial History on duty, which has violated the laws and regulations of the country, please Your Majesty deal with it seriously, and Li Fu is so unbearable, please Your Majesty dissolve his marriage with the Princess of Changsha! ”
