Since the last time he stood in the wrong line for the matter of folding the mu method, the current Jinyi Guard commanded Liu Jing as if he was on pins and needles.

In fact, it is not that he is on the wrong team, but that he accepted bribes from Henan landlords in the matter of folding the mu law last time, and deliberately did nothing.

After all, the landlords gave too much, not to mention Liu Jing, a small brocade guard who was used to being bullied in the past, and a cabinet scholar who was sent to Henan by the imperial court, and his career almost ended early.

By saying a few words or simply doing a few things, you can easily get the wealth that others can't accumulate in a few lifetimes, and if you want to refuse this kind of thing, you need extraordinary willpower.

What's more, what Liu Jing needs to do is simpler than these examples, he doesn't even need to do anything after receiving the money, just stay at home and call himself sick.

If you are sick for half a month, you can get 2 million taels of silver, which is the real test left for cadres.

It's a pity that Liu Jing didn't pass this test.

Although this money is easy to get, it is not so easy to spend.

Although Liu Jing's family's living conditions have been greatly improved after becoming the commander of the Jinyi Guard, it is the first time he has seen so much money, and it is impossible not to waver in his heart.

Even if I'm greedy now, I'm at a loss for a while, and I don't know how to spend it at all.

On this day, Liu Jing squatted in the house, looking at the big wooden box full of silver taels in amazement.

Suddenly, the demon messenger asked, "Say, where did these people get so much silver?" Before I became the commander of the brocade guard, I never dared to dream of so much silver. ”

"You've been staring at this silver for ten days, don't you get tired of it?" Xu stepped forward, picked up one of the ingots, and said, "The silver can give birth to cubs, take it out and spend some money!" ”

"Let me tell you, I have a pair of bracelets, they are bright, but they are beautiful, I couldn't afford them before, and I have to buy them now."

"Put it down!" Liu Jing's face was angry, and he said, "Do you think this money is so easy to spend?" If someone asks me, what do you call me back? ”

"Picked up? Or will my money give birth? ”

Xu snorted coldly, opened the door, and said as he walked: "I don't care, I've been looking at this silver for ten days, I'll spend a little bit, you look at Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Zheng." ”

"People's husbands are only 100 or 1,000 households, but I'm a commanding envoy's wife, but I'm not as good as them!"

Xu Shi only cared about talking, and didn't pay any attention to a black shadow outside the door, and directly pounced on the visitor.

Immediately, he was startled, exclaimed, took a few steps back, and even the silver ingot in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.

"Who?"

After seeing it clearly, Xu covered his mouth and hid behind Liu Jing.

Liu Jing saw that the person who came was serving as a eunuch in the inner palace, but he lost the new love just now, and said coldly: "It's time to come or come, why are you here?" ”

The person who came was none other than Wang Zhi, the little eunuch who was set up by the department.

Wang Zhi's position is not high, but he has often accompanied the emperor in the past year, and when he came this time, Liu Jing knew that the emperor already knew about the matter as soon as he saw it.

His own time of death is approaching.

Wang straightened down, picked up the silver ingot on the ground, and played with it in his hand.

"The master is not high, but he has saved a lot of private money, such a big ingot, I'm afraid it's more than ten years of your money, right?"

"Our family has forgotten a little, you have only been in this position for a few years?"

"Oh yes, it's been almost two years!"

Looking at Wang Zhi who was uninvited, Liu Jing didn't have much heart to joke, stood up, looked at a large box of silver under his feet, and sighed:

"Ever since I received this money, I have regretted it every day, and I haven't touched a penny."

"Let's see, this is not possible, right?"

Wang Zhixiao walked into the house with a smile, looking Xu up and down greedily, but in front of Liu Jing, he pocketed the ingot.

Both Android and Apple are available. 】

"Don't we have another ingot here?"

Liu Jing was stunned and asked, "Father-in-law, are you...?" ”

He originally thought that he was dead, but Wang Zhi's performance made hope rise in his heart again.

After all, these eunuchs were unprofitable, and if the emperor's decree was to execute him, Wang Zhi would not accept this silver ingot.

Since Wang Zhi accepted it himself, it means that the emperor is probably not going to kill them all!

Wang Zhi smiled, and he didn't plan to play tricks on people anymore, and said coldly: "Your Majesty already knows that you have accepted the bribes of the Wu family and the Yan family in Henan, and now Tiqi has left Beijing and went to Henan to raid the Wu and Yan families. ”

Hearing this, Liu Jing seemed to have lost all his strength and sat on the ground, and Xu finally realized the seriousness of the matter, and sat on the ground and cried.

"Your Majesty... What else to say..."

Wang Zhi smiled and said: "Your Majesty still misses the old very much, you have made meritorious contributions to the court and done things for Your Majesty, this merit, he has always remembered it." ”

"This time, our family is here to pass on His Majesty's message, telling you to resign tomorrow morning."

Liu Jing was stunned for a moment, and then was surprised and delighted: "Your Majesty really said that?!" ”

Wang Zhi nodded, sat on the chair, looked at the big box of silver taels, and sighed: "So much silver, no wonder you, in this world, few people can carry it." ”

When Liu Jing heard this, his face was embarrassed.

Wang Zhi didn't care about his thoughts, and snorted coldly:

"Write a resignation tonight and hand it over to our family, you husband and wife pack up the softness, go out of Beijing overnight, don't tell any domestic servants, take the two million taels, go to Jiangnan to find a place to be incognito, this silver is enough for you to spend a few lifetimes."

"Early tomorrow morning, this recital will be personally presented to the Qianqing Palace by our family for Your Majesty's imperial review."

Liu Jing and Xu were both happy, helped each other to get up, and kowtowed again and again to apologize.

Liu Jing was very ashamed, kowtowed three times in the direction of the Forbidden City, and said sadly: "Your Majesty! The minister is ashamed of his trust in you, and the minister is gone! ”

"The minister is not worthy of being the commander of this brocade guard!"

After a while, looking at the written recital on the table, Wang Zhi took it in his hand, looked around at the surrounding stops, sighed, turned his head and left.

The next day, Zhu Di saw the music that was placed on the eucalyptus, and he didn't look at it, but just asked, "What did Liu Jing say last night?" ”

After narrating Liu Jing's words as they were, Wang Zhi smiled and said: "Master, slave maid, this Commander Liu is really simple compared to others, and it seems that he doesn't dare to be greedy." ”

"This time, two million taels is also difficult for him."

Zhu Di nodded and snorted coldly: "I don't look at this, I see whether he did anything wrong after accepting bribes and harmed the people." ”

"He's still honest, but he's only been sick for half a month, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten around him!"

Wang Zhi knew that he was thinking wrongly, and hurriedly smiled flatteringly: "The emperor is benevolent!" ”
