A knife in love

Chapter 1570

Li Zhisheng regards Master Pan as his confidant, not only because this person can collect money for him, but also because Master Pan can put things ahead, so Li Zhisheng can drink and have fun in the yamen with peace of mind.But just now Li Zhisheng turned his head to look at Master Pan, not to ask him if someone insulted him behind his back, but just to avoid embarrassment, he turned his head casually, unexpectedly Master Pan would be wrong and say such a sentence Come.

If in normal times, Master Pan told Li Zhisheng that he had caught the unruly people who insulted the county magistrate behind his back, Li Zhisheng would not only not be annoyed, but would even praise Master Pan a few words.But just now I heard shopkeeper Hu say that Li Qiufeng is from a hundred households of Jinyiwei, and was ordered to work in Dongliao County, which scared Li Zhi out of his wits.He knew that Jin Yiwei was the emperor's pro-army, and was ordered by the emperor to spy on every move of officials and people in the world.I was corrupt and perverted the law in Dongliao County, and I did a lot of evil deeds. If this Jinyiwei reported the situation in Dongliao County to the superior, I would have my family ransacked and exterminated.Therefore, Li Zhisheng's thoughts changed suddenly, and he was thinking about how to bribe Li Qiufeng to let him let him live.If this person doesn't know good from bad and cannot be bribed, then he has to find a way to get rid of him secretly.Li Zhisheng thought to himself that although Jin Yiwei had been in Dongliao County for some time, he was busy dealing with Japanese pirates, so he couldn't find anything against him.As long as he bites him to death and doesn't say anything, and give him a few hundred taels of silver, it will probably make him shut up.However, Master Pan didn't know what to do, so he even told about the capture of the people, which is like handing a knife to Li Qiufeng, letting him catch himself.

Thinking of this, Li Zhisheng was startled and angry, he saw his right hand waved, and with a "slap", he slapped Master Pan heavily.Master Pan's face hurt, and he didn't know why Li Zhisheng beat him, so he jumped up from the chair, covered his cheeks, staggered back three or four steps, and said in a trembling voice: "Master Li, why are you, why are you Villain hitting?!"

Li Zhisheng pointed at Mr. Pan and cursed: "You bastard son of a tortoise! ​​This official has always been fair and honest, and loves the people like a son. It's you, a bastard who acts like a tiger and pulls a banner like a tiger's skin. The people in the county think that this official is a big corrupt official."

When Li Zhisheng said this, he took a look at He Butou, and said: "He Butou, you are the most clear about my character. Let me be fair, is it because this bastard tricked me, deceived me, and made me angry? The people are dissatisfied, and this official's reputation is damaged?!"

Seeing that Li Zhisheng, in order to protect himself, put the blame on Mr. Pan, who has always been obedient to him, He Butou couldn't help but feel the chill of the death of the rabbit and the fox.But he knew that Li Zhisheng was deliberately acting for Li Qiufeng, so he had to scold Master Pan a few words.As long as he deceived Li Qiufeng, after Li Qiufeng left, Li and Pan would still be the local emperors of Dongliao County, and he absolutely could not offend them.Therefore, Catcher He cupped his hands and said: "Master Li is just and honest, and he loves the people like his own son. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Although Master Pan was wrong, he also did bad things with good intentions. Slandering the adults will damage the reputation of the adults, and it is very easy to be used by others to incite the people to be dissatisfied with the court. If it is not suppressed, the foolish people will be instigated by the bad guys and gather to make trouble, and things will be difficult to deal with. Master Pan sent someone It is not a big mistake to catch a few unscrupulous people, although it is a little reckless. What is wrong is those treacherous villains who sow discord and have other plans."

At this point, Catcher He secretly took a look at Li Qiufeng, and then continued: "From the point of view of a villain, this matter was deliberately provoked by the bastard, Master Ma. This person has evil intentions and deceived Master Pan. Please also ask the county magistrate to investigate clearly."

Master Pan was terrified at first, knowing that Li Zhisheng was going to push himself out in order to deceive Li Qiufeng, but he was finally relieved to hear that what He Butou said was justifying himself, both inside and outside.After Catcher He finished speaking, Master Pan hurriedly said: "Old He... No no, Catcher He is right. The villain did something wrong with good intentions. He only wanted to share the worries of the adults and the court. The bastard Lao Si deliberately provoked, but he fell into his trap. The villain wants to expose Ma Lao Si's evil deeds! The year before last, he and Fu Juren competed for a good piece of land in the east of the city. Human life. When your lord tried the case, he was very discerning and found out that Ma Laosi's Zhuang Ding had done it first, so he awarded the land to the Fu family and ordered Ma Laosi to pay the Fu family 300 taels of silver. Partly because of this matter, he hated the adults, and created rumors in private, and let a few unscrupulous people spread them everywhere. He had a good plan. If the adults were not afraid of these rumors and let these unscrupulous people go, it is just as the saying goes, If the bones are destroyed, some dirty villains will definitely slander the Lord to the Liaoyang Governor's Yamen and even Yushitai. If the Lord sends someone to investigate this matter, Ma Laosi will incite the ignorant people, and only say that the Lord has ghosts in his heart. Suppressing the common people, thus stirring up civil uprisings and causing catastrophe. In the end, it is difficult for the adults to get rid of the responsibility. Ma Laosi is ambitious, and his heart can be punished."

While Master Pan was talking, his thoughts changed sharply, thinking hard about how to get out.He is an extremely treacherous person, although the incident happened in a hurry, he told lies as if they were the truth.I only heard him go on to say: "Just now what Catcher He said is right, the villain heard that someone was slandering the adults behind his back, so he was naturally filled with righteous indignation, and immediately led people to arrest some troublemakers. It's a big scam, and they are too reckless, but it's not for nothing. Although those unreasonable people are arrogant, but after they were arrested and whipped a few times in the prison, they were all scared out of their wits and had to tell the truth. From the confessions of these unscrupulous people, it can be seen that Ma Laosi is indeed behind the scenes, deliberately embarrassing the adults. The villain also said just now, this matter should be reported to the adults earlier, and the adults should make a decision. It's just that the adults are busy with business and have no time to care about it. These little things. Fortunately, Ma Laosi was condemned by God and killed by this Mr. Liu Sheng. He really deserved to die. Good kill, good kill. Please rest assured, my lord, when we return to the yamen, the villain will immediately kill those few The troublemakers were brought out of the prison, and they were sent to take them everywhere to preach the benefits of the adults and expose Ma Laosi's conspiracy."

After Master Pan finished speaking, he bowed to Li Zhisheng to the ground, and ended his impassioned speech.Li Zhisheng nodded, snorted, and said in his mouth: "If you have not been careful in handling things these years and have done a lot for the yamen, this officer will definitely tie you up and take you back to the yamen for torture. Since it is the bad guy Ma Laosi who is behind the scenes, and you have done something wrong with good intentions, I will not pursue you. Although Ma Laosi is dead, he must still have accomplices, and this case falls on you and He Butou. After we left here, you two immediately took people to Majiazhuang, ransacked Ma Laosi's old lair, and arrested all suspicious people back to the Yamen for interrogation. As for his property, the two of you They must be registered and made, and all will be confiscated!"
