Si Cao Zhang Binglin looked at Dou Zheng with nervous eyes, among these people, he was the closest to Dou Zheng, and there was also in-depth cooperation between the two.

If he confessed himself, wouldn't he be like this?

He really couldn't imagine the consequences.

"That's right, Dou joins the army, do you hurt!"

Fa Cao Lu Chen also came over, his responsibilities and Dou Zheng cooperated a lot, and mutual protection in the middle also happened from time to time.

He was also worried about what the other party said to Li Siwen.

"Dou joined the army, this is too brutal!"

"That's right, even if he is a special envoy, he can't do this!"

"Hey, I'm suffering!"

The rest are all clerks, and they are all in contact with each other, so they also came to join in the fun.

"Except for Lu Chen and Zhang Binglin, let's all go back!"

Dou Zheng waved his hand and motioned for all the little officials to step back.

"Whoa!"

A group of servants also bowed and withdrew.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Binglin also frowned, it was definitely not a good thing for Dou Zheng to leave him and Lu Chen behind.

"I want money!"

“？？？”

“？？？”

Both of them are stupid, you don't talk if you don't speak, you ask for money when you speak.

Isn't this too shameless?

"Li Siwen said that as long as I confessed everything I knew, he would spare my life, but I didn't, so there was such a result.

Now I have lost my official position, and I have been beaten.

I shouldn't be too much to make amends to you! ”

Dou Zheng glanced at the two of them and directly said his thoughts.

Although there are some lies in this, it is true that the official was lost and beaten.

"As long as you don't confess to us, that's all it can say.

Isn't it just a judicial army to join the army, with Dou's ability to join the army, there will be a bigger stage waiting for you. ”

The two glanced at each other, and Zhang Binglin also laughed from Dou Zheng.

"Don't say these vain words, if one person gives me two thousand five hundred taels of gold, our affairs will rot in my stomach.

Otherwise, the next time Li Siwen finds me, it is not certain whether I can control my mouth. ”

Dou Zheng glanced at the two of them again, what did they think.

He really didn't believe the current situation, and the two of them could jump out of the palm of his hand.

"Dou joins the army, are you threatening us?"

Lu Chen frowned and shouted at Dou Zheng.

"That's right, I'm threatening you!

Now that I've lost my official position, I'm all fine.

Two thousand five hundred taels to buy peace, you have enough money.

You can make it again when the money is gone, but if the official loses it, you know better than anyone what the consequences will be. ”

Dou Zheng smiled, but with this face, it was indeed a little infiltrating.

But he liked the word threat, because that's what he's going to do now.

"You, we've been friends for several years, do you have to turn against each other?"

Zhang Binglin also frowned, and said slowly at Dou Zheng.

"Friends can't be eaten, right, after giving money, we will go our separate ways in the future.

And it's not enough to turn against each other, after all, you are not poor, and you can still get this money. ”

Dou Zheng glanced at Zhang Binglin, in fact, he had turned against him, but you didn't know it.

It makes sense to use your money to pay off my debts.

"Two thousand five hundred taels of gold, you are eating a fat man at one time, how much do we have every year, is this a bit excessive."

Lu Chen also knew that this hemorrhage was unavoidable, after all, what the other party said was very right, and Dou Zheng knew that they had too many things.

In the past, these may have been win-win cooperation, but now they have become their killer knife.

If you want money or officials, they know very well.

But the sky-high asking price, sitting on the ground to pay back the money I still know.

"I know very well how much you earn, and I know even better how much you actually earn.

Two thousand five hundred taels of gold is a lot, but it will not ruin your family.

And I am a notice, not a discussion, I hope you two understand. ”

Dou Zheng grinned, only feeling that his cheeks hurt badly.

This damn Li Feng, the communiqué has a personal vendetta, right?

You'd better pray that you don't fall into my hands.

"You know how much I earn, but you don't know how much I spend.

Fifteen hundred taels, I only have so many now.

If you want it, I'll raise money right away, so let's go into the wild together.

Fifteen hundred taels of gold is enough for my family to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives. ”

Zhang Binglin sneered, there must be a degree of hemorrhage, if it costs two thousand five hundred taels of gold, it is better to kill himself.

Anyway, there can only be one money and an official, and it depends on Dou to fight for the official and the money.

If the fish dies and the net is broken, he will not get anything, and if he obeys himself, he can get 1,500 taels of gold.

How to choose, Dou Zheng knows better than himself.

"You're really not afraid?"

"I said, there is only so much money, do you want to love it, don't be a big deal Lao Tzu will accompany you to be an idler!"

Zhang Binglin also replied with a sneer, threatening, who wouldn't.

In the end, the fight is who is more ruthless and who is more patient.

"You, you."

Dou Zheng was also choked by Zhang Binglin's anger, you are really a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, right?

"Okay, Dou joins the army, everything is like this, let's take a step back.

Fifteen hundred taels is not a lot, so take it when you see it.

So that everyone can still be friends, right? ”

Looking at the tense atmosphere, Lu Chen also smiled and spoke to Dou Zheng.

"Friends, forget it, you are officials and I am a citizen, one thousand five hundred taels is one thousand five hundred taels.

Lao Tzu's face hurts, don't come in the future after giving money. ”

"Sending off!"

Dou Zheng got up directly and walked inside.

"Zhang Sicao, Lu Facao, please!"

His own servants came in and saluted the two men, and asked them to leave.

"Humph!"

"Bastard!"

The two also glanced at Dou Zheng's back, and left directly.

Out of Dou Mansion, the two also glanced at each other.

"Do you really want to give him the money like that?"

A trace of reluctance flashed in Lu Chen's eyes, although it was only 1,500 taels of gold, it was 15,000 yuan when converted into copper coins.

Even if I can earn it again, I feel distressed.

"Don't you give it? This guy has always been a ruthless person, if you really mess him up, he will do anything.

It's time to spend money to save your life, and it's time to pay for it. ”

After Zhang Binglin finished speaking, he directly boarded the carriage and ran towards his house.

"Hey! Let's go, go home! ”

Lu Chen also got into the carriage and left the Dou Mansion.

After getting the accurate news, Luoyang's officialdom has also recovered a little, except for those who are timid, and the rest of the officials continue to maintain the status quo.

In their opinion, this officialdom is a whole, and it does not mean that whoever wants to move can move.

A Li Siwen is just a hairy boy, and he really wants to finish the whole Luoyang in one pot.

"Your Highness, there's news!"

"What news!"

Glancing at Di Renjie, Li Yanran also raised her eyebrows.

"The news sent by Dou Zheng said that today Si Cao Zhang Binglin, Fa Cao Lu Chen and some small officials all went to his mansion."

"They want to ask if the other party has leaked their information!"

Hearing this, Li Yanran immediately understood what those people wanted to do when they went to Dou Zheng's mansion.

"That's right, what Dou Zheng told them was that he didn't reveal their situation at all, so they should be relieved now.

The next thing we have to do is to collect evidence and close the net. ”

Di Renjie nodded, and hurriedly told the news from Dou Zheng's side.

"Then don't do it quickly! One of these moths counts as one, and I'm going to serve them all to him this time.

And you have to pay attention to the lower-level officials who are suitable for training, if there is really a big change of blood here, someone must go up to the top! ”

Li Yanran glanced at Di Renjie again, signaling that the other party should also pay attention to the situation of the successor.

"Your Highness, there is a saying that should not only be said!"

Hearing Li Yanran say this, Di Renjie's brows were twisted.

"If you have something to say, we don't have to scruple about it!"

"Your Highness, the dismissal of Dou Zheng is a matter of suddenness, and you are right to deal with it so suddenly.

But if you really want to do something extraordinary to the whole of Luoyang, I suggest that you report this matter to Your Majesty and hand it over to the Ministry of Households, and it is better for the Criminal Department to deal with it. ”

Di Renjie gritted his teeth and slowly said his thoughts.

"You mean I'm just going to collect the evidence and let go of the follow-up disposition?

In this way, I will not be jealous of my father and the emperor because my hand is stretched too long? ”

Li Yanran was stunned, he seemed to understand what Di Renjie meant.

After all, she is just a princess, although her status is noble, but she is not an official after all.

If you are too deeply involved in the affairs of Luoyang, it is okay for Baiguan to say, the key is that he is afraid that his father will be afraid of cultivating his own power.

"That's right, in fact, your visit to Luoyang this time has been done very beautifully, as long as Lin Cheng can send people to Chang'an safely, we will count our merits as complete.

There is no need to upset Your Majesty because these officials are upset, you say? ”

Di Renjie nodded, the current situation is already the best ending for Li Yanran.

If she really has a bullish temper, she has to take care of it to the end.

That's the end of the picture.

After all, the heart of heaven is unpredictable, even if you are the emperor's own daughter, you will inevitably be suspicious.

Imperial power is the most sensitive at all times, and there are too many people who have died on these suspicions.

He didn't want Li Yanran, a child, to think about it without thinking about it comprehensively, and folded on it.

"Don't worry, I've never been in my position or in my own right, and I still know what's at stake.

And I let you have the idea of cultivating those grassroots officials, not to cultivate my own power.

You just have to look at it! ”

Li Yanran knew that Di Renjie was doing it for her own good, and she didn't mean to blame him.

"Whoa!"

Di Renjie hurriedly retreated after saluting.

"Cultivating power, do I need it? I have mountains of gold and silver, and I don't want to be an empress or empress.

Li Feng, do you say that Di Renjie is too sensitive. ”

Glancing at Li Feng beside him, Li Yanran also lifted Erlang's legs.

"Miss, Commander Di is for your good!"

Li Feng looked at Di Renjie's back, and hurriedly took out a jujube.

"I know, otherwise I'd close the door and let the dog go when he said that!"
