Chapter Eighty-Five: Each Schemes
(ps: The results of the monthly pass are dismal, friends, please give a few monthly passes to the pure wolf.) )
Unfortunately, when I met a subordinate like Lu Fatzi who was uneducated, rampant, and had a tough backer, the most rational way to be a boss was not to go head-to-head with such a naturally rebellious subordinate. In doing so, there is a great danger of losing both, and you may even play with fire[***] and bring it to your own mischief. Especially when Fat Lu's official reputation is good, the distress of playing with fire [***] may be even greater.
The most sensible, safest and safest way to deal with subordinates like Lu Fatzi is to wait, be false and wronged, think long-term, maintain a tolerant attitude for the time being, slowly collect handles, and wait for such subordinates to show flaws, and then grab the handle, and kill with one blow! In history, countless Qing officials and ministers fell under this trick.
This trick is also the trick that Lu Fatzi is most afraid of, with Lu Fatzi's ideals and ambitions, before the current strength is not enough to protect himself, being in the same city with an informant and hardcore Han Zhan like Li Shuzu is no different from staying in a room with a poisonous snake.
Although Li Shuzu understands and is very good at this trick, and also used this trick to deal with several political enemies, but after Qujing has been invincible for many years, Li Shuzu has lost the endurance to be humiliated by his crotch before, and has also grown countless arrogant and domineering atmosphere, unfortunately and inevitably fell into Lu Fatzi's provocation plan, lost his mind under Lu Fatzi's vicious provocation and deliberate anger, and issued an endless declaration of war to Lu Fatzi, determined to get rid of this scourge and disaster of Lu Fatzi as soon as possible!
can't completely blame Li Shuzu for not having a city government, and being poked by Lu Fatzi with such a shameful scar, as long as he is a normal man with a little bit of shame, there is no way to stay calm. But facts have proved that Li Shuzu's decision is tantamount to ringing his death knell with his own hands.
Before seeing this ending, Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu, who were also tough behind them, of course refused to believe that there would be such an ending, and after suffering a great humiliation from Lu Fatzi, Li Shuzu and his wife returned to the prefect's yamen, and immediately called the dog-headed military advisor Bi Huibin, and got together to discuss how to make Lu Fatzi die without a place to be buried.
"Boss, let's use the old way." Bi Huibin loyally suggested: "Spend some money to send the Long family Tusi, let them send the baby (slave) to the junction of Zhanyi Prefecture and Qujing County to deliberately make trouble, provoke the Han and Yi people to fight, and then kill a baby, carry the corpse to Qujing County to make trouble, and then no matter how Lu Fatzi is sentenced, there will be Han and Yi people who are dissatisfied, and then take the opportunity to incite them to make trouble, and the owner can join him for a charge of ineffective handling of the case and take him down." ”
"No, it's not powerful!" Li Shuzu slapped the table and shouted: "Even if he succeeds, he will only be dismissed from office at most!" I want him to be cut down all over the house! I want him to destroy the Nine Clans! Otherwise, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart! ”
"That's right, this method is too soft and too slow!" Ren Zeyu also gritted his teeth and said: "The old lady wants him to cut a thousand knives, Ling Chi ten thousand paragraphs!" Master Bi, you quickly find a way to see how you can chop that fat man Lu! ”
"Destroy the Nine Clans? Ling Chi was executed? Bi Xiaobin cried and said: "Dong Weng, madam, this difficulty is a bit high, according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, if you want Lu Fatzi to be executed by Ling Chi, unless he is charged with rebellion or murder of his own father, no matter how serious the crime he commits, at most it will be a beheading or beheading." ”
"Then accuse him of rebellion! Accuse him of murdering his father! Li Shuzu was also angry, and slapped the table again and again and yelled, "I want him to die!" I want his whole family to die with him! ”
"Dong Weng, this is too difficult." Bi Huibin's sad face became more and more sad, and said: "Lu Fatzi's father has passed away for many years, and even the Ding Worry Period has passed, and I can't find a partner if I want to frame him for murdering my own father." As for framing him for rebellion, this is more difficult and very dangerous, and if he is not careful, he may get into trouble and in turn harm his own ....... ”
"Master Bi, don't you often compare yourself to Zhang Liang Kongming?" Ren Zeyu said very unhappily: "Could it be that you can't do such a trivial matter?" Then why are we supporting you with a curtain salary of one hundred taels of silver a year? Also, don't think we don't know, you still have a foreign house outside, and you use the silver of the prefect's yamen! ”
"This ......." Bi Huibin was even more embarrassed, but after the eyeballs in the triangular eyes rolled, Bi Huibin suddenly thought about it and said happily: "There is a way!" ”
"What's the method?" Li Shuzu and Ren Zeyu asked in unison.
"Dong Weng, have you heard the story of the rebellion of the people in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty?" Bi Huibin sold a pass, and said gloomily: "Back then, in order to rebel, Han Shantong and Liu Futong secretly created a one-eyed stone man, and carved such a passage behind the stone man - the stone man has one eye, instigating the Yellow River to rebel in the world. Then Han Shantong and Liu Futong took the opportunity to cause an incident and led the migrant workers who dug the river to rebel and rebel - Dong Weng, why don't we concoct it? ”
"How do you do it?" Li Shuzu couldn't wait to ask.
"Simple, let's carve a one-eyed stone man." Bi Huibin said with a smile: "Engrave eight words on the back of the stone man - Dali Longxing, Lu Yifeng Huang!" Then where to bury this stone man, what to do next, I believe the owner also knows in his heart. ”
"Brilliant plan!" Li Shuzu and his wife clapped their hands together, and Li Shuzu said with great joy: "Yes, just do it, you hurry up and make arrangements, the sooner the better, it is best to do it before Lin Tianqing's old thing arrives in Qujing, and when the time comes, let that old thing see this stone man with his own eyes, and if you don't want to take down Lu Fatzi immediately, it won't be done!" ”
"That's right." Ren Zeyu also said happily: "That's it, when the time comes, I will take out the family tree again to prove that Lu Fatzi is a descendant of the Dali royal family, and he will be even more guilty of rebellion and rebellion." ”
"The students obeyed." Bi Huibin agreed, and said uneasily: "But Dong Weng, the matter is big, and it's not a joke to leak the news, so the fewer people who know about this matter must be as few as possible, and those stone carvers have to be fed with silver, and they can't be allowed to talk casually." ”
"Of course I do." Li Shuzu said impatiently: "You go to the account room to pay fifty taels of silver, the stone man is quietly carved, and directly find a remote place to bury it, as far as possible from insiders." ”
"Fifty taels of silver?" Bi Huibin, who was looking forward to making a big profit, stretched his face, and his plan to make a little difference to buy a set of jewelry for his concubine Xiaoli was completely disappointed. But Bi Huibin didn't dare to say anything, so he had to secretly scold the iron rooster and the iron hen, and honestly promised, "The student obeys, please don't worry about Dong Weng and his wife." ”
………………
Dejected, he walked out of the room of Li Shuzu and his wife, the time was already the second watch in the night, and Bi Huibin, who gave Li Shuzu and his wife a good idea but did not get any reward, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the surname Suo went directly out of the prefect's yamen, all the way to the outer house on West Street, ready to vent his grievances on the big breasts of Xiaoli.
After Lu Fatzi took over Qujing County, he had already expanded the ranks of officials and strengthened the control of the curfew -- Lu Fatzi was not full of food to support, the key was that Qujing County, which Cheng Feng left to Lu Fatzi, was purely a mess, and the people were extremely poor, needless to say, there were many petty thefts, and Lu Fatzi, who wanted to buy the hearts of the people, had to do so. So along the way, Bi Huibin successively met two teams of Qujing County officials who were patrolling the night, and they all came up to stop Bi Huibin for interrogation and investigation, but fortunately, raising a foreign house was not a royal law, so Bi Huibin did not encounter any trouble, and returned to his small courtyard of the outer house very smoothly.
Hugging the big-breasted little wife Hu Tianhu, who can only barely be regarded as a little posture, at the time of the third watch, Bi Huibin finally fell asleep on Xiaoli's chest, but he didn't sleep for long, Bi Huibin was suddenly woken up again, Bi Huibin was still a concubine who lacked desire, and wanted to pull himself to do Zhou Gong's ceremony, so he hummed: "Xiaoli, what are you doing?" If you still want to, wait until tomorrow morning, I don't have the strength right now. ”
"Master Bi, I'm not Xiaoli." The person who shook Bi Xiaobin smiled and said, "I have a deal I want to do with Master Bi, Master Bi, you will definitely be interested." ”
As he spoke, the man lit an oil lamp, Bi Huibin and Xiaoli, who also woke up, opened their eyes in a daze, and found that there were four more strong men in the room, and they were so frightened that they opened their mouths and were about to scream. Fortunately, the man at the head had quick eyes and quick hands, his hands reached out, covered Bi Zhenbin and Xiaoli's mouths respectively, and said with a smile: "Master Bi, Mrs. Bi, don't be afraid, we have no malice, only good intentions." ”
"Li Zhutou?" Bi Huibin finally recognized that the person who held his mouth was Li Tianzhi, the big thug under Lu Fatzi -- Li Tianzhi, who beat the Qujing Mansion officials to lie down all over the street, and Bi Huibin was of course deeply impressed. Behind Bi Pengbin are Lu Fatzi's other three loyal lackeys Liu Zhen, Liu Xu and Shen Xin.
"You ......, what do you want to do?" Bi Huibin said tremblingly: "Li Zhutou, there is a wrong, there is a debtor, it is the prefect who offended you, I didn't offend you." ”
"Li Zhutou, the slave family and Master Bi are just annihilated, and they haven't committed any royal laws." Xiaoli also wrapped her body in the quilt, and said cryingly: "The men of the slave family have been dead for three years, sleeping with Master Bi is not a crime, right?" ”
"Don't be afraid, we don't mean anything." Li Tianzhi smiled and pouted to Liu Zhenyi, Liu Zhen immediately unwrapped the package on his back and opened it, poured the contents of the package on the bed, and the white silver suddenly rolled all over Bi Zhenbin and Xiaoli. Li Tianzhi said with a smile: "Master Bi, these two hundred taels of silver are our greeting gifts to you, you don't need to be polite, please accept it." ”
"Silver?!" Xiaoli's eyes lit up, and she quickly grabbed a silver ingot and brought it to the front, and after taking a closer look, Xiaoli exclaimed in surprise: "Master Bi, silver!" It's real silver! Fine filament silver! Mother, I've grown so big, and I've never seen so much silver! ”
Bi Huibin manages the money and grain for Li Shuzu, of course, you can see at a glance whether these silver are real, or the best filament silver, Taizhou ingots! But it was precisely because of this that Bi Huibin became more and more frightened, and said tremblingly: "Li Zhutou, there is no merit, why do you give me so much silver?" ”
"Master Bi, I heard Wang Meng, the head catcher of your prefect's yamen, say that you are very unhappy under Governor Li, right?" Li Tianzhi didn't answer the question, and said with a smile: "I heard that Li Shuzu is a well-known iron rooster, and he is reluctant to even give gifts with his own silver, and use his wife's dowry to make up the amount - you do so much work for him, do so many things, and only have a hundred taels of silver a year, even if you can make some money in the money and grain lawsuit, but unfortunately Qujing is a poor place, and there is not much money if you want to make it, and in a year, the total amount is not more than one hundred and fifty taels of silver, right?" ”
"Wasn't Wang Meng arrested by you? How can I say such a thing to you? Bi Huibin asked in surprise.
"That's why he said such things to us because he was arrested by us." Li Tianzhi said with a smile: "Especially after hearing that Governor Li jumped up and down just to save his brother-in-law, and ignored him Wang Meng at all, Wang Meng even asked what to say, even Master Bi, you have a foreign house here and occasionally go to the casino to play a few tricks, we didn't ask, Wang Zhutou also took the initiative to say." ”
After speaking, Li Tianzhi looked left and right, shook his head, and said with a smile: "It's just that what we didn't expect is that Master Bi, your outer house is so dilapidated, short and small, dirty and black, it is like a pig's nest, it seems that Master Bi, the situation at hand should be worse than we estimated." ”
"So, you found this place after hearing the reports of those officials patrolling the streets?" Bi Huibin was not stupid at all, and immediately guessed the reason why Li Tianzhi and the others would appear here. Seeing Li Tianzhi and the others nodding, Bi Huibin asked again, "Then what do you want to do?" ”
"It's very simple, I hope you can do our young master a little favor." Li Tianzhi said unhurriedly: "Master Bi, you know, our young master and your owner have completely turned their faces, and they don't share the sky, as the so-called open guns are easy to dodge, and hidden arrows are difficult to prevent, your owners have been operating in Qujing for many years, and they are also half of the head snakes, and our young master is a little unguardable." Therefore, our young master hopes that Master Bi can do you a little favor and tell us about Li Futai's plan for our young master, so that our young master can be a little prepared, it's as simple as that. ”
"These two hundred taels are a meeting gift, whether you agree or not, it is yours, and we will not come back." Liu Zhen added: "Of course, if you agree, there are still three hundred taels!" If Li Shuzu falls within a year, he will give you another 1,500 taels, which is enough for you to live the rest of your life freely. ”
"You Lord Lu are really generous." Bi Huibin swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Of course, otherwise we would have been so dead set on him." Li Tianzhi smiled and said: "Also, after the matter is completed, if you don't want to go home to support the elderly, our young master can also write you a letter of recommendation to help you find a generous owner." ”
Although Li Shuzu was indeed stingy, but back then, there was a reputation for being a traitor seeking glory, so Bi Huibin was still a little hesitant. Over there, Li Tianzhi observed his words and looks, and bowed to Shen Xin again, Shen Xin immediately took out a stack of documents from his arms, Li Tianzhi took the stack of documents and threw them in front of Bi Huibin, and said: "Master Bi, take a look for yourself, it is all the pleadings that the people of Qujing have sued you, how many immoral things you have done for Li Shuzu over the years, you must know it yourself - think about it yourself, with Wang Meng's example in front, if our young master acts according to the law, with Li Shuzu's meanness and unkindness, will he spend his efforts to save you?" ”
Bi Huibin stopped talking, his expression was even more hesitant, Xiaoli couldn't wait to shake Bi Huibin's hand and begged: "Master, you promise, so much silver, you can't earn it in your life, if you agree, take me away, slave family, slave family will serve you for a lifetime." ”
"Mrs. Bi really understands current affairs." Li Tianzhi smiled, took a jewelry box from Liu Xu's hand, threw it in front of Xiaoli, and said, "Mrs. Bi, this is the gold jewelry we gave you." I heard your next-door neighbor say that you have begged Master Bi countless times, just to want a set of gold jewelry with a rich gold number in the city, but Master Bi is shy in his pocket, so he hasn't got his wish yet. This set, even if we send it to you for Master Bi. ”
"Thank you, thank you." Xiaoli was overjoyed, hurriedly thanked him repeatedly, and then took Bi Binbin's hand and begged: "Master, you just agree, you see how generous Master Lu is, how stingy your Lord Li is, what else do you sell him for?" ”
"What do you know?" Bi Huibin suddenly scolded Xiaoli, picked up his clothes and put them on his body and got out of bed, and said in a low voice: "Li Zhutou, please talk in the outhouse." ”
After finishing speaking, Bi Huibin turned around again and shouted to Xiaoli in a low voice: "Put away the silver and jewelry and hide them." Also, if you want to follow me to enjoy happiness in the future, eat fragrant and drink spicy food, don't bother with the idea of eavesdropping, it's not good for you! ”
