Chapter 272

When Li Xiao was having breakfast, he learned the news of Cui Chengxiu's suicide. Li Xiao was only slightly stunned for a moment, and then continued to deal with the bun in his hand.

It's all a matter of time, when you were so ruthless to Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, and Gu Dazhang. Now people come to find the account, which is also a normal thing. There is a more movie, but there is a less line.

Come out and mix! Sooner or later, it will have to be returned!

You're high-spirited, when you're on top. The one who is trampled under your feet and endures endless humiliation. Once you turn over, how can you not retaliate.

After breakfast, Li Xiao entered the capital, the emperor is not a cat or a dog, if you want to see the emperor, you have to make an appointment in advance. An official of Li Xiao's level was first reported by the Ministry of Officials. Then see which scholar is available and meet with you. Then they can be scheduled and wait for the emperor's summons.

This is also Zhu Youzhen's diligence, his brother who wants to be a civil engineer, often asks Wei Zhongxian to meet on his behalf.

When he arrived at the Ministry of Officials, Han Yi, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, did not come out to meet him. just sent a squire named Zhou Yanru out to meet Li Xiao, a junior character.

Governors and governors also have ranks, and Governor Denglai is also called Governor, but Governor Denglai is a subordinate of Li Xiao. Li Xiao, the governor of Shandong, is different from other governors, according to the Ministry of Households, Daming has a population of more than 120 million. Shandong alone has a population of 25 million. For Daming, Shandong is indeed a province with a large population.

Li Xiao, the governor, can also be called the first governor in the world. It is very rude for Han Yi to do this!

However, this guy is an old Donglin Party, and he was the one who threatened Wei Zhongxian at the beginning. Being able to survive Wei Zhongxian's several years of glory in such a high-profile manner is enough to prove that the old guy is not simple.

It is precisely because of Han Yi's Donglin Party identity that he does not want to see Li Xiao like this. All along, Li Xiao has been branded as a eunuch. This guy drinks eunuchs to cooperate in business, which is a lot of money. Moreover, he is also a thug of the eunuch party, holding military power to harm the party.

According to the ideas of the Han people, people like Li Xiao should be caught in the capital and chopped up and fed to the dogs. The impeachment of Li Xiao in the imperial court has never stopped, but unfortunately it has been left by the emperor.

Zhu Youzhen is an understanding person and killed Li Xiao. Who will guard Liaodong? Rely on you Donglin Party who can only talk about it? Don't be funny!

"I used to just hear that the governor was young, but I didn't expect him to be so young. Compared to you, the old man is really an old man. "As a servant of the ministry, Zhou Yanru has no shelf. When he speaks, he smiles, which makes people feel like an uncle next door.

The old guy is actually not old, about forty years old. This guy is very characteristic, with big eyes but big bags under his eyes. The nose is not big, but the ears are big. Like most officials of this era, he had three long strands of hair under his chin. The beard is meticulously combed, and it can be used as a brush when glued to the chopsticks.

"Lord Zhou, you are a respected senior. Where Li did not do well, you should give me more pointers. "Being young is a good thing, and you can get praise wherever you go. Li Xiao's status, who doesn't boast of being young and promising.

"Hahaha! What you said is highly respected, I'm afraid it's not true. You must know that you indiscriminately killed innocent old men in Jinan and you were also on the bullet stamp. Zhou Yanru laughed and made a light gesture. The two of them sat down in Zhou Yanru's public house!

"The kid is young, and sometimes he goes too far. But many times, there is no way. It's like this time in Jinan, the former governor of Shandong, Chen Hailong, started a rebellion. Killing angels in the downtown area, the method of dissecting the heart and digging out the liver is outrageous. On the first night of the recovery of Jinan, the city of Jinan was in chaos. The routs and lawbreakers burned and looted along the streets, and burned down more than 1,000 houses and shops. Nearly 5,000 innocent citizens were brutally killed, and the fierce and stubborn bandits even dared to attack our officers and men. Nearly 300 people were killed in the battle, and 8 or 900 people were wounded. These are all meritorious men who have repeatedly made meritorious contributions on the battlefield in Liaodong!

They did not fall under the sword of the alien race, but they lost their souls in the city of Jinan. In that situation, it is impossible not to use heavy hands. That's it, the kid endured it again and again. Only those who were extremely vicious were arrested, and a total of 1,700 people were beheaded. The kid now dares to say that there are still fish that have not been caught in the city of Jinan. ”

"Oh! It's so chaotic that the old man hasn't heard of it. Zhou Yanru stroked his beard, if it really came to this point, he should indeed attack hard.

"It's good that you can suppress the rebellion. But always have a compassionate heart in mind, you are still young, and there is still a long way to go. Don't kill too much, and you will lose your reputation for a lifetime. Got it? Zhou Yanru is like an elder, teaching Li Xiao earnestly.

"Lord Shilang's words, Li Xiao took it to heart." Li Xiao hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Look at you and me, I will say a few words to you. Now the situation in the court has changed greatly, and the new emperor has ascended the throne of Wei Zhongxian and subdued the law. You'll have to think carefully about what you're going to do in the future. Under the great tomorrow, loyalty to the imperial court, long live loyalty is the greatest truth. Do you understand? ”

Truth or say? Zhou Yanru can actually tell himself the truth, don't talk about Li Xiao, he doesn't even believe in ghosts. This is a fierce man who has been turned a traitor in the "History of the Ming Dynasty", and he has no way to deal with the Tartars. He is extremely enthusiastic about party struggle, and he spares no effort to eliminate the eunuchs. There are many more people who died unjustly in his hands than Wei Zhongxian.

Loyalty to the imperial court first, and then to the emperor.

It's a shame that he dares to say it so blatantly, doesn't it mean that you kid can see the current situation clearly. Wei Zhongxian is finished, and the eunuchs have fallen. Now that the Donglin Party is back, take refuge early, and spare your kid from dying.

"The boy's family is poor and he hasn't read much. However, the truth of loyalty and patriotism is still understood, and in Shandong, the first is to appease the people of Shandong. What is more important is to support the battlefield in Liaodong, drive out the Tartars as soon as possible, and restore our Daming country. Li Xiao is also a hardcore reply.

Loyal to the monarch and patriotic, first loyal to the monarch and then patriotic to the country. Lao Tzu is not on your way, see what you can do with Lao Tzu.

Taizu said that power comes out of the barrel of a gun. Lao Tzu has a gun in his hand, are you still afraid of your old coffins? Speaking of moving his mouth, the eight Li Xiao are not Zhou Yanru's opponents. Speaking of hands-on, the Donglin Party is not Li Xiao's opponent when tied together.

In particular, Li Xiao is now the governor of Shandong, holding the most populous province in the Ming Dynasty. Money, soldiers, and all kinds of supplies will be guaranteed. It only takes a few years for Lao Tzu to become a hero, you guys are a fart.

"It's good that Master Li knows that he is loyal and patriotic. Lord Han is busy with official business, so I won't see you. Banzai saw that your heart was very urgent, and yesterday I learned the news of your arrival in Beijing, so I sent the prince to urge. Tomorrow morning, the Qianqing Palace will see you. Originally, Lord Shousuke wanted to see you, but since that's the case, Lord Shousuke's words will be said by His Majesty. There was nothing to say, Zhou Yanru immediately issued an eviction order.

And Zhou Yanru also warned Li Xiao a little, don't be arrogant, you kid. You are already an enemy of the Donglin Party, although the emperor is the emperor, but now the court from the first assistant to the cabinet members are all Donglin Party members. When you have your hands free, I'll clean you up.

"Your Excellency is busy with official business, Li Xiao will take his leave!" Li Xiao stood up and walked towards the door.

"When you're old, don't give it away." Walking to the door, Li Xiao suddenly turned around and said to Zhou Yanru, who was sitting on a chair grinding his teeth.

“……!” Zhou Yanru was choked with a big red face. He's not yet forty years old, so he's not an old man anyway.

scolded Zhou Yanru in the Ministry of Officials, and let Li Xiao know how heavy the Donglin Party's revenge is. Cui Chengxiu died this morning, needless to say, the fate of the other eunuchs was not very good.

In good conscience, although he usually calls the eunuchs brothers. But Li Xiao really can't get used to these people, which is why Li Xiao respects these people and stays away.

The fifth master at the door was waiting with the spy company, and the spy company was wearing a new military uniform and was very conspicuous among the many waiting attachés. Especially these people are like Li Xiao, and they stand out from the crowd with short shaved hair.

Everyone kept their distance from the spy company, as if these people were plagues.

It is also easy to understand that these years pay attention to the parents of the body's hair and skin, and it is easy not to be damaged. Now when I meet a group of shaved soldiers, I have the feeling of meeting barbarians. Only barbarians shave their heads at will!

"Let's go!" Li Xiao turned over and got on his horse, since he will only see the emperor tomorrow. Go back to Tongzhou today, he really doesn't want to stay in the capital. is so hostile to the Donglin Party, even if it is trusted by the emperor. Maybe those radical guys will also mobilize the three battalions to run themselves. It's better to hide in Tongzhou to be safe, at least you can run if you are besieged. The tall walls of this capital are ten zhang high, where to run.

All the way back to Tongzhou, I walked and walked to Dongbianmen, but I couldn't walk. Outside the Dongbian Gate was a sea of people, and at a glance there were all black heads. Even the branches on the roofs were crowded with people, and it was more lively than the temple fair.

"What's going on?" Li Xiao looked at it from a distance, a little strange.

"Today's public trial of Xu Xianchun's case, the people are here to watch. Yesterday, Wei Guanghui was tried here, but he didn't expect to put this old guy to death on the spot. Everyone wants to see how Xu Xianchun will be judged today. "The fifth master has been in the capital for a few years, and the news is also well-informed.

"Judge Xu Xianchun? Let's take a look! Li Xiao didn't expect that this year was also a public trial conference. Looking at this posture, there must be tens of thousands of onlookers, to say the least. The Donglin Party will really mobilize the masses, so that those people in the eunuch party still have a way to live? If you don't need anything else, you will definitely be torn to pieces on the spot if you throw it off the stage.

People saw that these people wearing new military uniforms were dodging one after another, relying on this convenience, Li Xiao quickly went out of the Dongbian Gate, and saw a high platform in the distance in front of him.
