Chapter 75: The Ugly Family
Zhu Yuanzhang leaned back on the chair for a while, and sighed: "How is the case investigated?" ”
"The Jingshi has basically completed the inventory." Li Qing took out the list, "There are a total of 52 officials involved in the six ministries, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and other ministries, and 8.97 million stolen money has been seized, and the local officials have not yet started the investigation!" ”
"Alas! So many corrupt officials, such a large amount ......" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little sentimental, "Is it really that our emperor has done a bad job to have so many corrupt officials?" ”
Seeing Lao Zhu's face vicissitudes and loneliness, Li Qing was quite touched and comforted softly: "Your Majesty, there have been corrupt officials in all dynasties. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled bitterly, "Let your subordinates do the local inventory, you will stay in Beijing and take a good look at the honorable ministers for us." ”
"By the way, you go to the palace and summon King Qin and a few of them."
"Obey." Li Qing bowed his hand and withdrew from the main hall.
……
Queen Ma has been buried, and it is naturally time for several vassal kings to go back, and they are not happy to stay in Beijing.
When several people heard that their father had summoned them, they immediately followed Li Qing into the palace with a happy face.
Zhu Yuanzhang lectured his sons one by one, and then recruited more than a dozen monks.
"One picks a few and brings them back."
Four: "......"
"Father, forget about the sons, right?" Zhu Di sneered, "Erchen fights with Beiyuan every once in a while, and he really can't believe in Buddha." ”
"Who made you believe in Buddhism?"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have a good temperament, "It's to let you cultivate your self-cultivation and don't cause trouble for us." ”
"Okay, you choose slowly, Li Qing, go out for a walk with us."
"Yes." Li Qing nodded in agreement, glanced at the group of monks, and reluctantly followed Lao Zhu.
……
In the afternoon, several vassal kings left Beijing, and Li Qing wanted to see the monks selected by Zhu Di, but the vassal kings and officials needed to keep their distance, and he couldn't come forward to see them off, so he had to give up.
The senior officials of the six ministries each suffered losses, among which the household department suffered the largest loss, Shangshu Zeng Tai, Shilang Guo Huan, Langzhong Liu Hua, and Wang Wenlu in the service...... More than ten people were killed, and only one right attendant was left to support him.
However, although there are fewer people, official duties are not left behind.
The officials of various ministries worked overtime and worked frantically with their lives, not daring to complain in the slightest.
The turmoil of Guo Huan's corruption case did not have a big impact, the imperial court is still operating normally, and government affairs have never been slack.
It is in response to the saying: Whoever leaves the earth, it will still turn!
At the same time, Liu Qiang, Li Yu, and Zhang Long, each with 800 subordinates, went to the local area to investigate Guo Huan's corruption of the same party.
Li Qing instead sat down under the pomegranate tree, holding a cup of hot tea and enjoying life.
These days, I am either busy killing people or searching my house all day long, and I am really tired.
Zhang Sloppy has not shown up since that night, and Li Qing knows that the old man has already wandered away.
"Alas... I'm alone again. Li Qing shook his head and sighed.
"The gentleman sighed again." Wan Ling filled the teacup on the table with tea, "The sun will go down soon, sir will go back to the house later." ”
"Well, what's for dinner at night?"
"Sister Lian Xiang said to make braised pork to eat." Wan Ling smiled and asked, "There's still a carp in the pond, do you want to stew a fish soup again?" ”
"Done." Li Qing smiled, "Go get it." ”
"Hmm." Wanling went briskly, ran two steps, turned around and said playfully, "Sir, the New Year will be in two months, do you want to buy some New Year's goods in advance?" ”
"How can you buy New Year's goods two months in advance?" Li Qing didn't have a good breath, "Stew your fish soup." ”
"Oh~"
Wan Ling nodded wistfully, "The maid will go now." ”
Seeing that the little girl was sullen, Li Qing came back to her senses and couldn't help but look funny.
Half an hour later, the braised pork and fish soup were ready, and the three girls moved the table and chairs to Li Qing, and he didn't have to move his buttocks.
Since the funeral of Queen Ma, his imperial meal treatment has been cancelled, but the three daughters have eaten the imperial meal, and their cooking skills have increased day by day, although the taste is not as good as the imperial meal, but the difference is not big.
Li Qing ate with a mouth full of oil, and praised the skills of several female chefs.
In winter, it gets dark very quickly, and after a short time of eating, the sky darkens.
"Sir, go back to the house." Redsleeves said softly.
"The moon is out, I'll enjoy the moon for a while, you go back first!"
Although it is winter now, the temperature in Jinling City is not low, and Li Qing enjoys the feeling of the evening breeze blowing on his body.
Red Sleeves didn't persuade him again, and stood behind him and massaged gently.
The evening breeze raised her hair, beating Li Qing's cheeks from time to time, tickling.
During these days, he killed people and raided his house all day long, and there was a heavy bloody aura on his body, which he could feel himself, for fear of scaring the three daughters, and he never let them wait.
I have been depressed for so long, and now I only feel that the hair with red sleeves has become sexy.
I don't know if I noticed the change in him, the red sleeves were closer, and the hair touched his cheeks more and more frequently.
Li Qing suddenly turned his head, and his moist red lips came up.
Soft, sweet, sweet and sweet.
Red people, too good.
The incense shoulders hooked into the room, and the leaves and branches paid and lang;
Sweat is like rain, dyed red makeup, and there is less madness on the mandarin duck pillow......
——————
Early morning.
Li Qing got up early, practiced boxing in the courtyard for a while, and went to the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division.
Liu Qiang and the others went to the local area to handle the case, and took away a large part of it, leaving only five or six hundred people for him to drive.
That's enough, though.
After all, the current officials dare to be 'beaten', and they are as well-behaved as rabbits, and they don't need to spend too much energy.
Li Qing arranged his daily affairs and went to the palace.
The Imperial Study.
Zhu Yuanzhang crossed Erlang's legs very easily, and Zhu Biao was a busy mess, forming a stark contrast.
"Weichen see the emperor, His Royal Highness the Prince."
"No courtesy." Zhu Yuanzhang put down the teacup and picked up a letter from the imperial case, "Take a look at this." ”
Li Qing stepped forward to take it, and after reading it, he couldn't help but be stunned there, "Your Majesty, this King of Qin ......"
"What a ugly family!"
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, "You go and arrest him back for us, it's not a glorious thing, don't stir up the people, you go alone." ”
Li Qing asked, "What if King Qin won't come?" ”
"How dare he?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened, "You pass on our message, if he dares not to come back, we will skin him." ”
Li Qing nodded, "The minister obeys the order." ”
"Go ahead!" Zhu Yuanzhang advised, "If he dares to spill, he will be beaten first." ”
Li Qing: "......"
Don't look at what Lao Zhu said, but he knows that this guy is the most protective of his shortcomings, and if he can do it, it is better not to do it.
However, this King Qin is indeed bold.
looted gold and silver in the domain, robbed the people's daughters, built a large number of buildings, and killed people in the streets...... This has to be replaced by a different person, and it is estimated that he will be guillotined when he returns.
Li Qing didn't have a good impression of this vassal king who often looked at people with nostrils, but he never thought that he would be so vicious.
went to Zhenfu Si Yamen to lead a horse, and Li Qing turned over and got on the horse to chase Zhu Zhang.
The vassal king came to Beijing with a complete guard of honor, so the speed of travel was not fast, and Li Qing caught up in the afternoon.
Zhu Fan saw him chasing after him, and said strangely, "What's the matter?" ”
"King Qin, the emperor asked you to go back to the palace?"
"Back to the palace?" Zhu Fan frowned, "What's wrong in the palace?" Will the third and fourth also go back? ”
Li Qing ignored his question, and just said, "The emperor ordered the officials to take King Qin back to the palace." ”
Zhu Fan waved back left and right, looked at him and said, "You have to tell me what's going on, right?" ”
"The emperor only said to let King Qin return to the palace." Li Qing said lightly, "Please also ask King Qin to cooperate." ”
Now, no matter how dull Zhu Fan is, he also understands what the problem is, and scolds:
"That little report on that dog day hit me?!"
"......," Li Qing said, "and ask the King of Qin to enter the palace with his subordinates." ”
"I ......" Zhu Rongse shrank for a moment and said with a dry smile, "You tell my father on my behalf, it's all a misunderstanding, I'll change it when I go back, and I'll never do it again in the future." ”
He really didn't dare to face Lao Zhu directly.
Li Qing was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, "The emperor told His Royal Highness the King of Qin to return to the palace immediately, does the King of Qin dare to resist the decree?" ”
"Oracle?" Zhu Fan smiled and said, "Take the holy decree, otherwise I won't admit the oracle, who knows if you faked it?" ”
Li Qing smiled, "I'll say this one last time, go back to the palace with me, or ......"
"How else?" Zhu Fan sneered, "You and I are scared, Li Qing, what are you, you ......"
"Bang ——!"
Zhu Fan's body was rickety, his mouth was big, and his saliva was spurting out.
Before he could fall, he was picked up by Li Qingti, "Otherwise, I'll have to do it." ”
