Chapter 100: Liu Qi's Prosperous Era 8 Liu Rong committed suicide

Chang'an has recently become very calm.

Zhidu had just taken charge of the Lieutenant's Office, and the bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods of Chang'an City had touched the bottom of Uncle Zhi, and they all put on the face of law-abiding and good people, and they didn't dare to mess with big things.

Because everyone knows that most of the people who go to Uncle Squatting will have an idea, that is, can they die faster?!

This is not an exaggeration, Uncle Zhi is the same in dealing with local tyrants and inferior gentry, and the standards of social garbage are the same, ensuring that one hundred and eighty catties go in and one hundred catties come out.

When Uncle Zhi was in Jinan, there were countless local tyrants and shoddy gentry planted in his hands, and potential criminals ran away when they saw him. Uncle Zhi's prestige made officials of the same level in neighboring counties come to Jinan to worship the mountain, and they are more diligent than serving their superiors.

Maybe you will say that Jinan is not as good as Chang'an, Chang'an is the capital, the relatives of the emperor in the capital, and most of the officials and nobles, no matter how capable Uncle Zhi is, he has to be a little more restrained. If you think so, you're wrong.

Facts have proved that he can't splash firewood, rice, oil, and salt, sugar-coated shells can't attack him, no one can entrap him, and no one can pull him into the water. This officialdom steelman has long been desperate for the lofty ideals of his post.

Uncle Zhi is a consistent person, whether in Jinan or Chang'an, goshawk or goshawk.

The law and order situation in Chang'an City was improved overnight under his rule.

This is true outside the palace, and it is also true inside the palace.

Empress Wang's virtuousness made Liu Qi's harem also quiet and peaceful.

There are capable ministers on the outside and virtuous queens on the inside, but Liu Qi's life has become idle.

However, such days did not last long.

In the second year of Emperor Jing's reign (148 BC), Liu Rong, the former crown prince of Linjiang, was sued by local officials, accusing him of encroaching on the land of Emperor Wen's temple.

Liu Rong has been unlucky for the past two years.

His position as the crown prince was lost inexplicably, and then his biological mother died tragically, and he finally got away from the land of right and wrong in the capital and came to Linjiang. stayed quietly for two years, although full of complaints, but also kept to himself. Now I plan to expand the old house to improve my living conditions, but I was sued.

And when all this happened, he was just an ignorant teenager.

Why did he fall from the crown prince to the king of Linjiang, why did his mother die suddenly, and why did he come to the wild land of Gangneung County?

All the questions were really incomprehensible to him at the age of seventeen.

Therefore, when the lieutenant's office sent someone to arrest him and go to Beijing to investigate, Liu Rong naively thought that the opportunity to complain to his father and ask questions had come.

Liu Rong got into a high-level prisoner car specially prepared for the vassal king with mixed feelings.

The car was not far away, and the axle was almost broken.

It's a bad sign!

The Jiangling fathers and elders who saw each other off along the street were shocked, and remembered Liu Rong's leniency in the past, so they cried quietly: "I'm afraid my king won't be able to come back (my king won't turn back)!" ”

Liu Rong came to Chang'an with mixed feelings, and did not see his father, who thought about it day and night, and did not see his intimate brothers and sisters, but he saw the lieutenant who was feared by everyone.

Although Liu Rong didn't know Zhidu himself, when he saw the red-hot brazier and a variety of torture instruments in the court, his legs were already half weak.

Zhi Du stared viciously at the prisoner in front of him, the eldest son of the emperor, and the crown prince of the year.

Liu Rong, who has a distinguished status, not only did not dare to look directly in the face of such a sharp gaze, but also felt a chill in his heart and a chill down his spine.

Zhi didn't make any effort to try the case clearly.

In fact, the magistrate did not make false accusations, and Liu Rong himself knew that the place of expansion was Emperor Wen's Temple, but he still insisted on covering the land for expansion, committing the crime of great rebellion.

Zhi Du tried the case, and he was not polite, and ordered Liu Rong to be locked up and kept in strict custody.

It stands to reason that a prince and grandson like Liu Rong, if nothing else, will come out soon. No matter how Uncle Zhi pretends to be stupid, he should understand this truth.

However, as a unique officialdom landscape of the imperial court, Zhidu still adhered to the principles, except that he could not inflict corporal punishment and personal insults on the king of Linjiang, and the other standards were no different from other prisoners.

Zhi Du reported the case to Liu Qi, hoping to get Liu Qi's instructions.

Liu Qi's reaction was very cold, neither saying that he would release people, nor that he would not release people.

Zhi Du was stunned for a while, not knowing whether to take the initiative to retreat or wait for instructions.

It's your son, so I've got to give me a word.

Although Liu Qi did not say the reply, he asked about Liu Rong's situation in prison.

Of course, don't expect this ruthless father to care about whether he eats and sleeps well in prison, he asks about Liu Rong's confession.

Zhi Du replied one by one, but still did not get any instructions for conviction and sentencing, only to see Liu Qi press down the file and wave his hand to him to retreat.

Zhidu finally understood what Liu Qi meant, and the emperor probably wanted to teach his son a lesson and let him eat prison food.

Liu Rong stayed in prison for a few days, couldn't stand it anymore, and asked the jailer to give him a knife and pen, planning to write a letter to his father.

The jailer went to ask Zhidu, but Zhidu turned his face and sternly rejected Liu Rong's request.

Liu Rong was in prison in despair.

At this time, Wei Qihou Douying, who was idle at home, heard about Liu Rong's predicament and remembered the relationship between teachers and students.

Dou Ying sent someone to secretly send the knife and pen to Liu Rong's cell, and instructed him to write it overnight, and someone would be sent to pick it up at dawn, and it would be delivered to the Queen Mother to avenge your grievances when the time came.

It was night, and Liu Rongfen wrote a book.

He wrote a bloody letter full of resentment and dissatisfaction.

Before the age of fifteen, he was pampered by many people. After the age of fifteen, his most attached mother died, and he himself was reduced to a wild land, two years without father's love, without mother's love, two years, awakening from nightmares countless times, dreaming of his kind mother countless times. And now, he is in prison, calling the heavens and the earth unacceptable.

How unjust fate is! Queen Mother, I miss you so much!

Liu Rong shouted helplessly in his heart.

Liu Rong finished writing the blood book in one go, and roughly folded the cloth. He stood up and threw his knife and pen on the ground. When he looked up and saw the beams on the cell, Liu Rong burst into tears for a while.

Mother, my son saw you coming.

A silk white silk, Liu Rong left.

He was only seventeen years old when he left, and he was just a child, a poor child.

Cough!
