Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 250 Knocking the Mountain and Shocking the Tiger (2)

"Master, this is the charcoal gift from Liaoqian, Xuanfu Town, Datong Town and other places some time ago." Li Zhong held an account book, handed it to Li Ruzhen respectfully, and said, "It's just different from previous years. Compared with ours, nearly [-]% less..."

"Damn! What kind of dog things are there, dare to fool my Li family!"

Li Ruzhen, who was playing with bracelets and humming operas, looked cold and stern, grabbed the account book in front of him, and cursed: "Everyone feels that their wings are hard, so they dare to fly solo, right?

If it wasn't for the promotion of my Li family back then, which of them would have been able to get up, the carbon respect of Zu Dashou?He felt that if he became the right lieutenant general of Shenshu Camp, he would be able to run rampant! ? "

Flipping through the account books in his hand, Li Ruzhen became more and more irritable. The item of carbon respect has decreased by nearly 10,000% compared with previous years, which is a decrease of nearly [-]+ taels of silver.

Especially when he saw that there was no carbon tribute written about filial piety to the ancestors on the account book, a nameless anger gushed out from the bottom of Li Ruzhen's heart.

Back then, their Li family was definitely a tyrant in Liaodong, even if it was the ancestral family of a famous family in Ningyuan, they would have to cling to them.

Now the prestige of the Li family is not as good as it was before, one by one started to play tricks, trying to get rid of their Li family, it seems that they all want to jump around.

"My lord, I gave the charcoal from the ancestor's family, but it was given along with the charcoal from the Zhang family." Seeing this, Li Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "There are also Wu's family, etc., who took the charcoal from other families. Respect, Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang and the others all sent people over to explain, saying that they were transferred by the Son of Heaven to serve in the Shenshu Camp..."

"What kind of bullshit is that?"

Li Ruzhen closed the account book, frowned and said: "Don't think that I don't know what they are thinking. Go, write a letter to those guys who didn't enter the carbon respect..."

"Master, something is wrong!!!"

Just when Li Ruzhen wanted to arrange for Li Zhong to write a letter to warn those short-sighted guys, to let them understand that although the Li family is in decline now, it is not a joke that they have something in their hands. Yes, but at this moment, a panicked voice sounded from outside the study.

"Which dog dares to bother me!"

Li Ruzhen, who was originally sitting on the official hat chair, became more irritable after being interrupted by this. Holding the bracelet in his hand, he walked out of the study.

"Master, something serious happened!" Li Bin, the steward of the outer court, knelt down on the ground and shouted to Li Ruzhen, "A large number of Jinyi guards have come outside the mansion, and they have surrounded everything."

Li Ruzhen, who was in an irritable mood, was stunned when he heard this. Why did Jin Yiwei surround their Li family? Could something have happened?

Intuition told Li Ruzhen that something must have happened.

"Who brought the team here?" Li Ruzhen frowned and shouted, "Apart from Jin Yiwei, is there anyone else? Is there a loyal army?"

Regardless of Li Ruzhen's guilt in the government, but he has a very clear understanding of the outside situation and the structure of the court. Otherwise, how can the industries under the Li family's name maintain a good momentum?

"It's Luo Yangxing!"

Li Bin was a little emotional and said: "According to the report from the family members of the family, people like Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang also led the soldiers from the Shenshu camp and came together with Jin Yiwei."

Li Ruzhen's complexion changed slightly, and he secretly thought that Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang led the Shenshu camp to follow Jin Yiwei, so it must have nothing to do with Yuan Chonghuan's case.

And they didn't send anyone to pass on the news. It must be that when they knew about it, Jin Yiwei had completed the corresponding deployment.

"Li Zhong! Hurry up! Burn all the account books of Bing Jing and Tan Jing that have been in the study over the years for me!" Li Ruzhen shouted, pointing at Li Zhong with slightly opened eyes.

"Here!"

Although Li Ruzhen didn't know, this time Luo Yangxing led Jin Yiwei, recruited Zu Dashou and the others, and surrounded the entire Li residence, what exactly was he trying to do.

However, the intuition deep in his heart told him that the matter might not be simple, and it seemed that to solve this trouble, he would need to use some anecdote hidden in a secret place.

"Jin Yiwei is on a mission by order, open the door of the mansion immediately, otherwise he will be punished as treason!"

Although it was said to be from the inner court, the roars from many sides made Li Ruzhen flustered, and he was ordered to do errands and deal with treason. Just such words made Li Ruzhen feel that the matter had become a big deal.

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang and the others also felt troublesome.

"Commander Luo, what did the Li family do to make Jin Yiwei go to such trouble?" Zu Dashou rode on the horse, looked at the calm Luo Yangxing, and said, "Could it be someone from the Li family? Did it offend Tianwei? Or did Li Ruzhen do it again..."

Jin Yiwei's various performances caused Zu Dashou to feel uncertain. If the Li family was arrested and they were involved, it would not be a good thing.

"Shuai Zu, let me tell you the truth." Luo Yangxing raised his head slightly, and said calmly, "This Li family is involved in Chongwenmen's tax resistance.

Moreover, according to Jin Yiwei's investigation, Li Ruzhen did not abide by the laws and regulations of our Ming Dynasty during his time in the mansion, but instead did many things that despise the emperor's kindness.

His Majesty was extremely furious when he learned of this.

This time Zu Shuai led his troops here, he must perform well, if there are any scruples, it is best to solve them in advance, so as to save time..."

Hearing Luo Yangxing's words, Zu Dashou's eyes slightly opened, and there was a little doubt in his brows, but he quickly regained his composure.

The Li family is going to collapse this time.

No, you have to take this opportunity to clean it up, otherwise if Jin Yiwei finds something and it is presented to the emperor, then the matter will explode.

"Commander Luo, the Li family occupies a large area, why don't we ask this commander to lead a team to clean up these side courtyards!" Zu Dashou, who wanted to understand this, immediately said to Luo Yangxing.

"After this matter is over, I will report to His Majesty, and this commander will set up a banquet. This time, I hit it off with Commander Luo. I wonder if I can show my face?"

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Luo Yangxing said with a smile on his face: "Since that's the case, I'll bother Zushuai. Luo was a little worried before that he didn't have enough manpower to complete the errands assigned by His Majesty."

Luo Yangxing's first impression of Zu Dashou's performance was that he realized that Liaodong generals such as Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang had unusual relationships with the Li family.

But it's right to think about it. After all, when Li Chengliang was the head of the Li family, the background and prestige in Liaodong were definitely the strongest, and it was inevitable that many relationships would be cultivated.

But Luo Yangxing felt that Emperor Chongzhen attached great importance to Zu Dashou, and would definitely entrust him with important tasks in the future. If this is the case, it would be better to form a good relationship in advance, so as to benefit the Luo family in the future.
