Chapter 065: Donglin Earthquake

Fame, fame.

Since ancient times, how many literati have been obsessed with it, if a death can achieve the name of loyalty and martyrdom, and thus go down in history, there are many literati who are willing to die unyieldingly. But it does not mean that these literati were all gentlemen who worried about the country and the people before they died, but they may be villains who are bent on chasing fame and fortune.

In ancient times, the idea of literati was to leave a good reputation, to be remembered by future generations, so that they could profit after death.

Li San is also famous, and he also wants profit. Not only is he greedy, but he often gives some small favors to the people on weekdays, and at the same time uses guò propaganda to win a good reputation.

Once the name of the corrupt official is confirmed, then Li Sancai will give up his achievements and his golden body will be annihilated.

Many people outside talked about it, and they were upset about Li Sancai, but when they saw a cart of gold transported to the door of Li's mansion, and at the same time, all kinds of antiques and jade, and high-end furniture were all moved out, the scene suddenly exploded, and no one could have imagined that Li Sancai had such a huge family property.

The ignorant people who were still upset about Li Sancai before were all so shocked that they couldn't speak.

"Gold, all gold!"

"My dear mother! I've never seen so much gold when I'm so big. ”

"What Li Gong is, it's a huge greed for fame and reputation."

There was a commotion in the scene, looking at the neatly laid out large boxes, the big boxes were full of gold, and the number of these boxes was no less than dozens.

That's 16 tons of gold!

If it weren't for a group of soldiers armed with spears and flintlock pistols guarding the left and right, there might have been a large-scale looting soon.

However, it was just a simple display, and the wind direction of public opinion in Tongzhou immediately changed 180 degrees. The people who were originally upset with Li Sancai all cursed Li Sancai at this time.

No matter how stupid he is, he knows at this time that Li Sancai is a big corrupt official.

In fact, such an idea has been done before, after all, Li Sancai has built a luxurious house, and there are hundreds of domestic slaves. It's just that if some things are not made public, there will always be some people who don't want to think about it. Although some people knew that Li Sancai was corrupt before, they never imagined that Li Sancai was so greedy.

Since ancient times, corrupt officials have been spurned, and Li Sancai's huge greed is even more hateful.

When Li Sancai was escorted out of Li's house, the onlookers threw all kinds of 'biological and chemical weapons' at Li Sancai, including rotten eggs, footcloths, and even dung throwers.

Originally, Li Sancai wanted to try to maintain his demeanor, but within a moment after getting into the prisoner car, he became a wolf bèi, his head was slimy, and various colored things were mixed together, which was definitely the dirtiest thing in the world.

With a bad reputation and a great loss of image, Li Sancai smelled the disgusting stench on his body, and he was in the mood to die. But seeing a group of family members and children being escorted to the prison car, he directly dispelled this idea.

If a corrupt official can be on this job, Li Sancai is not a simple commodity.

Since the good name is no longer guaranteed, but at least the Li family's bloodline will be passed on, and there will still be some incense after death, right? If the three clans are really wiped out, it will be a complete loss.

Tongzhou is very close to the capital, and a few hours later, the Beijing camp escorted the confiscated property, as well as Li Sancai's family into the capital.

Before entering the city, there were already fast horses to report to the emperor. Zhu Youxiao received the news in the palace, and was shocked by the huge harvest of this raid on the spot.

Ecstasy ensued.

350,000 taels of gold! It is equivalent to 4.55 million taels of silver, and there are many assets that are slow to realize, and according to the rough statistics of the factory guard, Li Sancai's mansion, furniture, antique calligraphy and paintings, jade, and the assets of shops and land add up to more than one million taels.

made a profit of more than 5 million taels of silver at one time, which was like a pie falling from the sky, and Zhu Youxiao was so surprised that he danced.

"When someone comes, Li Sancai will be paraded through the streets immediately, and Li Sancai's embezzled income will be publicized when he enters the city." Zhu Youxiao immediately ordered that Li Sancai's subjugation was certain, but if public opinion was not guided, the Donglin Party was likely to spread rumors, tell nonsense with their eyes open, and turn black into white.

After all, there is no network in these years, and the Donglin Party can spread rumors among the people that the emperor wants to add the crime, and impose the crime on Li Sancai's head.

Therefore, it is still necessary to guide public opinion to a certain extent.

After Zhu Youxiao gave the order, he began to think about how to spend this huge amount of money.

Soon the whole capital was suddenly a sensation, and Li Sancai, the former head of the household department, the minister of Caoyun, and the governor of Jianghuai, was investigated and questioned by the emperor for embezzling five million taels of silver.

This news is simply explosive, for the people who enter the city, five hundred taels may not have been seen, let alone five million taels, this number is even more appalling to them.

In order to see the true face and fate of the huge greed, soon thousands of people empty the streets, and the convoys in the streets were even blocked by the people who came to see the excitement for a time.

All the way down the street, Li Sancai and his family were attacked again by various 'biological and chemical weapons', and the whole person had already become stinky, and a large number of flies were 'dancing wildly' around Li Sancai, lying on Li Sancai's face from time to time, but Li Sancai couldn't reach out to drive them away.

Corrupt officials are hated everywhere they go, especially such huge greed, which has become a trash can for ordinary people to vent their dissatisfaction, and rotten eggs and rotten cabbage with anger are smashed into the prisoner car like raindrops. After walking around the streets of the capital, the prisoner car had been filled with all kinds of garbage, submerging Li Sancai's body, and only his head could be exposed.

Later, outside the Chengtian Gate, Jingying showed the people the stolen money embezzled by Li Sancai, as well as all kinds of valuable items confiscated. Even if the Donglin Party wants to protect Li Sancai, it has to think about the consequences.

Emperor Li Sancai raided his house to ask for the crime, and this news was like suffering a major earthquake for the Donglin Party. Ye Xianggao, Liu Yixian, Han Yi, and Zhou Jiamo, the group of Donglin Party bigwigs, couldn't sit still. Ye Xianggao and Han Yi, who were dealing with the recital in the cabinet, directly retired early on the grounds of physical discomfort.

Several bigwigs hurriedly gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

These Donglin Party bigwigs, none of their family assets are less than one million taels, Li San was arrested, and the most dangerous thing is naturally them.

"Li Sancai was confiscated by the emperor A large amount of family property, Bao must not be able to protect him, and it is impossible to protect him. The question at the moment is how to make Li Sancai shut his mouth and not implicate us. Ye Xianggao said with an ugly face, compared to Li Sancai's bold corruption methods, Ye Xianggao and they are still very hidden, so they all look incorruptible. It's just that no matter how hidden it is, Li Sancai, as one of the bigwigs of the Donglin Party, knows an amazing amount of the inside story.

If Li Sancai is really open-mouthed, then they will be in danger.

Ye Xianggao's words won the approval of several bigwigs present. Giving up Li Sancai has become their consensus. After all, such a large amount of family property was confiscated, how dare they protect it?

"Although we can't protect Li Sancai, we must stabilize Li Sancai first. immediately found a way to communicate with Li Sancai, and said that Donglin would protect him to the end. ”

Liu Yixiao planned together, "As long as we can shut up Li Sancai, we will immediately mobilize Donglin and let the emperor hand over Li Sancai to the Criminal Department and Dali Temple for trial." As long as it is handed over to the Criminal Department or the prison of Dali Temple, you can invite Li Sancai to have a drink. ”

"That's all we have to do now." Zhou Jiamo and Han Yi nodded in agreement, there is no better way than this. It's just that there is a lot of difficulty in achieving the goal.

After Li Sancai was paraded through the streets, he was imprisoned in the 'Labor Reform Bureau' on the edge of the Royal Military Factory outside the city, referred to as the Labor Reform Bureau.

It is difficult to communicate with Li Sancai in the Labor Reform Bureau. The Royal Arsenal and the Labour Reform Bureau were heavily guarded, and idlers could not approach them at all.

And it is also difficult to hand over Li Sancai to the Criminal Department and Dali Temple for trial from the hands of the factory guards, and it is also difficult if the emperor does not hear it and turns a blind eye to it.

However, as long as it succeeds, you can invite Li Sancai to drink a cup of poisonous wine.
