Chapter 555: Clever Black Powerful
readx;? Seeing that Zhang Zi was going to be ruthless, Li Podi thought to himself: "It doesn't matter if the manager dies, hire another one." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info subordinates and those family members are dead, it's nothing, recruit again. If you are killed, you can't be resurrected. Besides, it's too unjust to die like this. Hurry up and stop, as soon as he speaks, the knife behind him will be shot. ”
Li Podi hurriedly interrupted Zhang Zi's words: "Son-in-law Zhang Zi, I have something to say." ”
Zhang Zi didn't really want to kill Li Podi, so the next words were very slow, and when he heard Li Podi stop, he didn't say the next words, but said: "Say it, I'll give you a chance." ”
Li Podi hurriedly softened and begged for mercy: "Gongzi Zhang, for the sake of your father and my eldest brother being officials in the same dynasty, forgive me once." ”
Zhang Zi asked coldly: "Forgive you? How can I forgive you? Is the law of the land a child's play?"
Li Podi begged with Zhang Zi in a low voice: "Zhang Gongzi, this kind of thing can be big or small. You raise your hand, please. ”
Hearing that Zhang Zi didn't respond, although Li Podi felt sorry for the money, he knew that he couldn't pass this hurdle without bleeding: "I know that my family has committed a serious crime, and I will atone for it with practical actions." ”
Zhang Zi squatted down with interest: "Vice General Li, I would like to hear what practical actions you take to atone for your crimes." ”
Li Podi still has a fluke mentality: "All the medicinal materials for disaster relief in my family were donated. ”
Zhang Zi said coldly: "You are very generous in donating what we confiscated." Let me tell you, not only will your family's disaster relief materials be confiscated, but also fined. At least five times the fine. ”
When Li Podi heard Zhang Zi's words, his heart hurt, but he had to say: "Yes, the punishment is good, I agree." That, how much money does Uncle Huang donate?"
Uncle Huang also came over: "My relatives and I have collected a total of one million taels of silver. ”
Li Podi gritted his teeth and said, "I can't compare to Uncle Huang, I donate 300,000 yuan." Then he begged: "Zhang Gongzi, I am a rough man, spare me." ”
Zhang Zi pondered for a while, then stepped forward and pulled Li Podi up: "Brother, don't blame me." The emperor's order is here, and I can't help it. ”
Li Podi hurriedly greeted: "Brother understands, brother understands." ”
Zhang Zi continued: "Your pharmacy was fined 100,000 yuan in silver, and all the disaster relief materials were confiscated. You accompany the emperor to have tea, and let your family go home to collect fines and donations. ”
"Good. I'll do it right away. Li Podi honestly went to the lobby to drink tea, and asked his subordinates to get money and medicine.
At this time, a voice came from outside the street gate: "I said Teng Snake County Guard, you have to keep your eyes open when you take people." You dare to take my people. Have you asked me? Have you asked the Empress? Have you asked the Emperor?"
With the sound of speaking, a man shaking a feather fan came in, everyone present knew him, this is the national father-in-law, commonly known as the emperor's father-in-law, and the civilized word is father-in-law.
Li Podi just took a sip of tea, and when he saw Guozhang coming, he was happy: "I see how you Zhang Zi deals with Guozhang, if it's unfair, hehe." ”
Zhang Zi smiled at Uncle Huang and said, "It's your turn." ”
Uncle Huang was tied to this chariot, and he really had no choice but to come over with a hard head: "Guozhang, it's okay." ”
"Uncle Huang, why are you here?" Guozhang didn't expect that Uncle Huang was also in the county guard's mansion.
There are five people in the court today who are the most influential figures. The first place is, of course, the emperor, followed by Zhang Zi, who can also be called the emperor's shadow.
There are three more characters who are also worthy of a book. One is Prime Minister Zhang, the other is Li Potian, and the third person is the national ruler who readers will say. Let me tell you, it's Uncle Huang who guessed wrong.
The previous document said that the imperial uncle had no power, which meant that he had no power in administration and military affairs, but he still had the right to manage the emperor's relatives and relatives.
The most difficult thing to govern in a dynasty is not the ministers and eunuchs. As long as the emperor does a little bit, these people are easy to manage.
The most difficult thing to manage in the dynasty is the royal relatives and relatives, although they all shout "the prince has broken the law and the common people are guilty", which refers to the time when the dragon chair is endangered. If the princes, nobles, royal relatives, and relatives do not make big mistakes, and small mistakes continue, no yamen can control it.
In order to stabilize the imperial court, the emperor appointed the imperial uncle to manage the emperor's relatives. Without this authority, why did he raise 500,000 taels of silver with one mouth?
Although the status of the emperor is very noble, he still belongs to the ranks of relatives, and he also accepts the management of the imperial uncle, and he also has a headache when he sees the imperial uncle.
Uncle Huang smiled and didn't answer Guozhang's question, but reminded: "Guozhang, you have a holy decree in front of you, let's talk after worshipping." ”
I have to say that Zhang Zi's move is quite bad, put the holy decree in this place, and recruit one by one. First of all, I lost the opportunity in terms of etiquette, and I condemned you to a great crime of disrespect, and you have no temper at all.
The prince got the reminder of the imperial uncle before he saw the holy decree under his feet, so quickly kowtow, and then the procedure is to read the holy decree.
Uncle Huang said solemnly: "Gongzi Zhang Zi was ordered to provide disaster relief and purchase medicinal materials in the capital. Your pharmacy didn't know where to get the information, and at that time, the price of disaster relief medicinal materials was increased fifteen times. Do you know what kind of sin this is?"
"This?" Guozhang is not stupid, he knows how powerful Zhang Zi is, and dares to kill him. After killing him, the emperor will be angry with the queen, and in the end, the whole family will be finished.
When Guozhang saw Zhang Zi coming over, he hurriedly said, "Zhang Gongzi, you are here." I've been looking for you for a long time. ”
Zhang Zi said coldly: "Guozhang, your family was arrested by my order. Tell me something. ”
Guozhang said fiercely: "Catch it well." These minions are doing this behind my back. ”
When Zhang Zi heard Guozhang say this, his face softened and asked, "I don't know what Guozhang is looking for me?"
Guozhang sighed and said: "Today I went to see today's mother, and she actually asked me to be jewelry. said that there was no money for disaster relief, so he made some money to solve the emperor's urgency. How can I let my mother take the jewelry, I said to my mother, I donate to disaster relief. When I leave the palace, I will look for you everywhere. ”
"Thank you, then. Zhang Zi smiled and asked, "I don't know how much the national abbot wants to donate." ”
Guozhang replied very dryly: "Fifty thousand gold." I'll order someone to fetch it at once. ”
Zhang Zi thanked him and said: "For the sake of the emperor for the sake of the imperial court, your people will not be held criminally responsible, but the fine will have to be paid." ”
The national abbot hated in his heart, but he said: "It should be, it must be." ”
Zhang Zi politely said to Guozhang: "Please come over for tea and let the family get donations and fines." ”
Guozhang didn't have the heart to drink any tea, but he understood what Zhang Zi meant, if he didn't see the money, people couldn't leave, including himself, so quickly order his subordinates to go home and get the money.
Li Podi saw Guozhang coming, quickly stood up and said goodbye, and then smiled awkwardly.
Immediately afterwards, there were a few gangs who came to make trouble, and their forces were much worse than Li Podi and Guozhang, and they all obediently paid fines and had to donate.
Zhang Zi looked at the several carts of medicinal materials and the silver ticket in his hand in the county guard's mansion, and was happy. This time, there is no need to worry about the funds, not only is the disaster relief enough, but also the treasury can be replenished with some silver.
This time, a total of 4.5 million taels of silver was raised. Zhang Zi calculated, there is no need to spend money on medicinal materials, and the rest is the cost of labor and carriages and horses, and one million taels of silver is enough. He was very trustworthy and returned the emperor's 500,000 silver back, and handed over the extra 3 million taels of silver to the imperial uncle and asked him to send it to the treasury.
After the imperial uncle sent the silver to the treasury, he came to the palace to see the emperor.
The emperor was taking a walk in the garden, and when he saw his uncle coming, he was not polite, so he asked the emperor to accompany him for a walk.
After walking for a while, the emperor suddenly asked, "Uncle Huang, I heard that your house was cleaned today." All the filth in the house has been disposed of?"
When the imperial uncle heard the emperor's words, he was shocked into a cold sweat. This shows that the emperor knows that his family is destroying evidence, and it also shows that there is the emperor's eyeliner in the house.
Uncle Huang said tremblingly: "Go back to the emperor." It's all cleaned. ”
The emperor didn't seem to feel the change in Uncle Huang's expression, and he was still gossiping: "That's good." If the filthy things are left at home for a long time, they will give rise to demons, and when they are cleaned, their hearts will be purified. ”
Uncle Huang basically didn't dare to say more, so he could only echo and say, "Yes, yes." ”
The emperor said again: "I heard that the fox fairy went to your house in the morning. They see that your house is not clean. ”
Uncle Huang felt a little thirsty, licked his tongue and said, "Yes, thanks to the fox fairy's guidance." ”
The emperor plucked a residual leaf, held it with his hand, and looked at this residual leaf for a long time: "It seems that the fox fairy is still a good teaching." ”
Uncle Huang didn't know what the emperor was thinking now, so he could only echo and say, "Yes, yes, yes." They teach the people to be good, and they are good immortals. ”
The emperor had seen enough of the remnant leaves, suddenly tore them apart, and then threw them on the ground, then turned his head and said, "Uncle Huang, you must be careful about investigating the mastermind of the anti-fox fairy." This is a matter related to the design of the country. You are my imperial uncle, and my country also has your share. Do you understand?"
Uncle Huang felt that the emperor's water was really deep, and he was glad that he listened to Linghu Xue's words, otherwise the consequences would be like the residual leaves on the emperor's hands. Hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, in the future, I will protect your dragon chair like protecting my eyes." Whoever wants to think about it, I will be the first to disagree. ”
The emperor pulled up the imperial uncle and said, "You are my own uncle, I don't believe who else can you trust?" ”
The imperial uncle left the palace in a cold sweat, and hurriedly went to the county guard mansion again to investigate the anti-fox fairy incident.
Now the happiest is Zhang Zi. Although this operation offended a few powerful people, enough funds were raised for disaster relief, and some silver was also accumulated for the national treasury, and disaster relief drugs were also purchased. Depart tomorrow morning, and if you hurry up, you will be at your destination in five days.
Zhang Zi pulled the medicine and disaster relief money into his own house, and informed the four sisters of Linghufeng to gather at the north gate of the capital tomorrow, and ordered Zhan San Dao and Four, Five, and Six Dao to guard the supplies, etc., and he went out to mobilize soldiers with one knife and two knives to go through the relevant procedures.
Although he was very busy, Zhang Zi still took the time to go to the palace.
The emperor was very happy to see Zhang Zi coming in, and hurriedly pulled up Zhang Zi, who was about to pay homage, and said, "It's just the two of us here, no big rules." ”
Zhang Zi saw that the emperor's face was full of spring, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty is in a good mood today, if there are any happy events, let the ministers share them." ”
