East Factory Governor

Chapter 316 All the black materials have been collected
Although Li Fu is a scholar of Donglin, he has always been regarded as an outlier. Some of his colleagues ridiculed him for being greedy for money, and some said he was just trying to catch fame. No one had ever said "good" to him so sincerely.

Indeed, he took a road that was neither black nor white.He is greedy for money, both giving bribes and asking for bribes, but every penny he is greedy for is spent on people's livelihood, so he is destined to neither be able to join forces with other Donglin civil servants, nor to be able to leave behind the same name as the real honest officials.As for whether he is a good official, sometimes even he himself can't tell.

Li Fu never imagined that this first-class hero in Ming Dynasty, the famous person in front of the emperor, would have such a high opinion of him.This was the first time he was recognized by his colleagues in the court, so that Qin Shuhuai's faint words made him burst out of all kinds of grievances and confusions he had suffered over the years, just like a child who has been misunderstood by adults all of a sudden. It's like being recognized in the room, so I burst into tears!

Qin Shuhuai was quite moved when he saw Li Fu crying.Li Fu's "greed" is to some extent a compromise of "honesty".Ningbo Mansion prospered because of his "greed", and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment because of his "greed".It can only be said that in today's special era, an honest and honest official is completely unable to display his ambitions, and it is even more likely that he will become an accomplice of the Donglin Party's misfortune and extortion, which will bring disaster to the country and the people.

Sighing, he said to Li Fu, "Get up, Mr. Li, I have something to say to you."

Li Fu wiped away his old tears, got up tremblingly, and said, "Qin Shaobao, my servant...you listen carefully."

"Master Li, do you know why the emperor asked me to be the governor of the south of the Yangtze River? Let me tell you, the emperor knows that Daming is rotten, rotten to the core! Lord Li has the same ambition to help the world as I do, you must know this, right? "

Li Fu nodded with deep feeling, and said, "Shaobao, it's not just a low-ranking official, this truth is known by the common people! Nowadays, hundreds of officials in the court are forming cliques for private interests, extorting violently for their own selfish desires, which has led to frequent civil uprisings. To put it bluntly I shouldn't have said it, the lower officials think that if things go on like this, our Daming society will be in great trouble!"

At this time, Li Fu had completely opened his heart to Qin Shuhuai.He knew that if Qin Shuhuai wanted to harm himself, there was no need to beat around the bush, and he could be punished with death by directly using the matter of trespassing outside the city without authorization.So, what do I have to be afraid of now?After finally meeting someone who understands me, why don't I spit out what I have wanted to say but dare not say for so many years?

Qin Shuhuai nodded, and asked again, "Which officials does Mr. Li refer to by 'Hundred Officials'?"

"This..." Li Fu was momentarily at a loss for words.

Qin Shuhuai said calmly, "Then let me explain it for you. The 'Hundred Officials' who form cliques for private interests and extort money for their own selfish desires have a resounding and beautiful name, and that is Donglin! It can also be called Donglin Party!"

Li Fu's eyelids twitched violently, and then he had no choice but to nod his head convincingly.

He muttered, "Donglin scholars are all over the world, but all the scholars in the world form cliques and are all corrupt. It is true that they are Donglin Party... Oh no, so, the lower officials are also Donglin Party, right?" The teacher of the lower official is Qian Qianyi, a great Confucian of Donglin Academy."

"Oh? You are Qian Qianyi's student? Then what do you think of your teacher?" Qin Shuhuai asked with interest.

Li Fu smiled wryly, "How dare you insult the name of your family teacher, but don't say anything."

He didn't want to comment on Qian Qianyi, and the implications were self-evident.

Qin Shuhuai didn't force it, and said calmly, "Master Li still wants to have a relationship with his teachers and students after all. But love is love, and righteousness is righteousness. Master Li should know what righteousness is, right?"

Li Fu was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Xiaguan Hanchuang has studied hard for twenty years, and I have heard the words of sages since I was a child. I should know a little about the word 'Dayi'. Qin Shaobao, Xiaguan knows you Protecting the people of Ming Dynasty, putting life and death at risk, running thousands of miles to retreat and build slaves, is for the word "righteousness". Now the governor of the south of the Yangtze River on behalf of the heavens is also for the word "righteousness". It's such a "righteousness" to Shaobao, but if Shaobao has any orders, the subordinate officials will die!"

As he spoke, he knelt down and bowed deeply.He is a smart person, knowing that Qin Shuhuai said these words to him, he must want him to help him deal with the Donglin Party, so he simply expressed his heart first.

Although he was born in Donglin, he has already seen through the corruption of Donglin.It's just that before he met Qin Shuhuai, he didn't even dare to think about dealing with the Donglin Party.But after Qin Shuhuai appeared, he ignited the fire that was buried deep in his heart.

With a great talent like Qin Shaobao taking the lead, why should Donglin worry about being unfair?Since I, Li Fu, have the heart to plead for the people, why don't I fight with Qin Shaobao to my heart's content?I am going to die today, even if the capital Donglin fails in the future, I will still die, so what regrets?

"Master Li, please get up!" Qin Shuhuai supported Li Fu and said, "In this case, please tell me what you know."

Li Fu chatted with Qin Shuhuai all night in the study, telling all the things he knew about Donglin Party's corruption and perversion of the law.Since Li Fu himself also bribed those officials, he was in the middle of the game, so he knew a lot of things in great detail, and many things were supported by evidence.

Of course, there is no lack of things about opening foreign cities along the coast of Zhejiang, such as Wang Huazhen conniving at his nephew to monopolize overseas business, and the ins and outs of the Zhao family's massacre caused by it.

After Li Fu finished speaking, he also wrote a ten-page love letter with his own hands, pressed his fingerprints, and tapped his private seal, saying that if anything happened to him in office, this love letter would be evidence.

Presumably, he was also prepared to be killed by the Donglin Party at any time.

Qin Shuhuai received the letter of love and said, "Master Li, don't worry, as long as you don't tell me about my visit to your house today, your life will not be in danger. After all, you are an important member of the court even if you are an official, and you are Qian Qianyi's disciples, they dare not touch you unless it is absolutely necessary. Of course, you told Chen Qian that Zhao Xinian is dead, but now they know that Zhao Xinian is not dead. After this incident, they will definitely not believe you again and exclude you That's for sure, you just have to bear with it."

Li Fu nodded and said, "What Qin Shaobao said is true, the lower officials know."

At dawn, Qin Shuhuai came out of Li Fu's residence, feeling extremely happy.Now I have not only Li Fu's love letter, but also Mr. Zhao's love letter and account book, plus Zhao Xinian and Li Fu as witnesses, so it can be said that the witnesses and material evidence are complete.

Next, of course, is to find Wang Huazhen!

Fuck this old thief, toss him to death, one can comfort the loyal souls of Chen Lue and others who died unjustly in Shenyang City eight years ago, and two can see how the gang of Donglin Party will react, it's really cool Ya!
