People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 391: The Left Censor-in-Chief couldn’t bear being defeated by a woman and went crazy!
The reason why the Left Censor-in-Chief, the Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture and the civil servants here were angry.

It’s not because they have been caught by the Jinyiwei.

It wasn't even because the emperor knew what they were doing.

What made them angry was that they knew that they had been completely defeated by two women, Guo Feixue and Sophia.

They look down on these two women, Guo Feixue and Sophia.

It was even because of these two women that they agreed to do these things together with the civil servants.

Why did I do it at that time? It wasn’t because I really hated Chen Han that much.

They had even planned to get some advantage from Guo Feixue and Sophia.

Even though I know that Chen Han is not in Beijing now, but on the Korean battlefield.

But they still went there with full enthusiasm and brought gifts.

The purpose is to negotiate with Guo Feixue and Sofia and resolve all the grievances.

But what they didn't expect was that Guo Feixue and Sophia openly insulted them.

Even exposed their purpose.

They say they are fence-sitters, that they are fickle, and so on.

As civil servants and high-ranking officials, how could they tolerate such insults?

That's why he did such an unmanageable thing.

Originally, they thought that these things were caused by Guo Feixue and Sophia.

But what they didn't expect was that it was Guo Feixue and Sophia who defeated them.

She is the woman they look down upon.

They think that these two women were able to accomplish these things only by relying on Chen Han's power.

After seeing the expressions on their faces, Li Rubai knew what they were thinking.

He even taunted, "My lords, you never expected that the Miss Guo and Miss Sophia you look down upon are actually quite capable.

I know that you guys will definitely not accept it and will definitely want to cause trouble, so I arranged for people to wait by the stone bridge early, waiting to catch you in the act. "

When these heart-wrenching words were spoken, it was like a bolt from the blue for these officials.

They feel that their thoughts are meticulous, their plans are thorough, and their action plans are strict.

So it must be able to escape everyone's inspection.

The Left Censor-in-Chief, Chen Han, Guo Feixue and Sophia will definitely be made to pay the price.

Even though they were caught by the Jinyiwei now, they felt that they and others simply did not have the ability to surpass the Jinyiwei.

After all, the Jinyiwei was originally an agency that specifically kept a close eye on officials and caught them making mistakes, so it didn't matter if we lost to them.

But how could I lose to those two annoying women?
They just couldn't figure it out.

They all felt that this was impossible.

The Left Censor-in-Chief was so angry that his white beard was blown up by the air flow.

The whole person was shaking like a sieve as he stood there.

That is excitement, that is anger, that is unwillingness.

At first he saw the civil official falling to the ground after being hit by the servants.

He also looked down on them when he saw how pitiful they looked when they were trying to establish a relationship with Li Rubai in order to save their lives.

He was even a little proud at that time.

I feel like at least an official.

He still looks like a scholar.

Have a little bit of self-esteem.

But now all this self-esteem was shattered by what Li Rubai said.

Lost to two women.

In my life, I have been respected as a child prodigy since I was young, and I have been well-known in the surrounding area since I was a child.

I grew up being praised by others.

Once he entered officialdom, he would have a prosperous career.

All the way to the current position of Zuodu Yushi.

But I didn't expect that I would be defeated by two women in the end.

Thinking of this, the Left Censor-in-Chief sighed to the sky with an extremely crazy look.

We can't blame them for this, because people of this generation really look down on women.

So I always think that women should be weaker than them.

It should be worse than them.

Should be more incompetent than them.

But now we find that this is not the case.

These two women, Guo Feixue and Sophia, are not only more capable and smarter than them.

Even more thorough than them, and able to anticipate the enemy's actions.

People will know about any action they take in advance.

And they have already set up an ambush and are waiting for you to take the bait.

The Left Censor-in-Chief laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes.

Then he suddenly broke down and screamed.

He started running and jumping around wildly around the yard.

He tore his clothes while running.

It turned out that he was too excited and too unwilling to give up, so he went crazy.

In fact, such people are thin-skinned.

He didn't want to admit that he had lost to the two women.

And it was the women who had insulted them.

But in fact, he was really defeated by others.

The governor of Shuntian Prefecture felt really sympathetic when he saw the crazy Zuodu Yushi.

At the same time, I also feel a little envious and jealous.

Because if the Left Censor-in-Chief went crazy, perhaps his family would be spared from being implicated.

He wants to go crazy too.

But his emotions were not as strong as those of the Left Censor-in-Chief.

At that moment, all of Zuodu Yushi's self-esteem and arrogance were shattered.

Because the Left Censor-in-Chief grew up in a smooth environment.

Even now that I am old, I have never suffered a major setback except for today.

But today's blow was too heavy for him.

It doesn't matter to others.

But for someone like him who has always felt that he is superior to others since childhood, it is too heavy a burden.

Li Rubai and his men looked at the crazy Zuodu Yushi and ordered, "Catch him, catch him immediately, and don't let him get away.

Arrest people immediately and capture the family members of Zuodu Yushi.

Seal off his residence and immediately arrest the families of other officials from house to house."

After Li Rubai gave the order, the Jinyiwei quickly rushed in and arrested all the family members of Zuodu Yushi, including his two sons and three grandsons.

After Zuodu Yushi's family came out, they saw that the old man had become so crazy and thought that he might have been forced by the Jinyiwei.

His two grandsons were so excited that they even broke free from the Jinyiwei.

He ran to the Left Censor-in-Chief, grabbed him and shook him hard, trying to wake him up.

But it was not so easy for the Left Censor-in-Chief to sober up at this time.

He had gone mad and his spirit had collapsed, and there was no way to stop it.

This is especially true for someone as proud as the Left Censor-in-Chief.

The moment his self-esteem was shattered, he never had a chance to recover.

The two sons and three grandsons of Zuodu Yushi shouted, "Li Rubai, even if you are the commander of the Jinyiwei, so what? Do you think you are the emperor?

Do you think you are Chen Han? You actually drove our old man crazy. I'm telling you, I will definitely impeach His Majesty for this matter. Just wait.

You can expect that everyone in your Li family will be implicated in this matter.

Don't think that just because you are a Jinyiwei, don't think that you are Chen Han's lackey, you can be so unscrupulous.

Our family is not someone you can easily mess with, you can go and ask around.

Since you like being a dog so much, you must consider it.

If one day the emperor no longer likes you dogs, your former victims will not let you off easily.

Don’t you think about your own future and your family?”

It’s still a strategy to attack people’s hearts.

They believed that although Li Rubai was only the deputy commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he should at least understand.

They are now just dogs released by the emperor to chase prey.

But sooner or later, the hunter will abandon the hound because he doesn't like it.

By then, all the prey that the hound has bitten will turn around and bite the hound to pieces.

After hearing this, other officials immediately said, "That's right, Li Rubai, you are so young, you don't think you can stay in this position until you die.

Have you ever thought that one day you will lose your current position because of the emperor's suspicion?

He might even be silenced by the emperor for knowing too much.

Although the emperor has ordered our arrest, you are just an executor.

You can fully carry out the emperor's will, or you can show some mercy.

If you just show some mercy, you can report to the emperor.

But for people like us, many of us may be given a new life.

Don’t you consider this at all?
Do you really want to see bloody fights among your colleagues?"

To be honest, this statement is really touching.

You have to know that Li Rubai is still young and has a long way to go.

At this time, each of these Jinyiwei was a little hesitant.

To put it bluntly, all of them have families.

Each of them has a bunch of people behind them.

If it wasn't for the emperor's order, they would never do it. To directly confiscate the property and exterminate the clan is a bit against the harmony of nature.

But so what?
Did the emperor give the order to arrest all the people, but he himself was not arrested?

To be honest, this is actually quite difficult.

Li Rubai was also hesitating at this time.

Always hesitating.

He hesitated whether to let the families of these officials go.

But if he let these people's families go, his Li family might be implicated. What should he do?
But if he didn't let go, he would look over there.

Among the family members of Zuodu Yushi, there were about ten young men and girls.

They looked at him with pleading eyes.

Each one of them is so young.

If they were exiled to the border, these young people might die on the way.

How sad that is.

But if I let these people go, what should I do if the emperor can't do anything?
Just a moment of hesitation.

The governor of Shuntian Prefecture came over first and knelt down in front of Li Rubai.

He kowtowed three times and then said, "Mr. Li, this matter is indeed very difficult to handle.

But we still have to ask you something.

Everyone is responsible for their own actions, and these things are all done by us.

You said before that we haven’t considered our family.

We thought about our family, but there was nothing we could do.

Officialdom is full of struggles and intrigues.

This has been the truth since ancient times.

As a member of an official family, don't you understand this at all?
You definitely understand, so you understand even more that we have no choice but to consider everything for our family.

We didn't even think about failing.

So this is where we didn't think carefully enough.

You are still young, and you are an executor of the orders issued by the emperor.

You can kill us with one blow, or you can chop off our hands with one blow, without harming our lives.

This is all part of the execution process. There is no need to make a fuss about it.

Because even if all of us obey the law, you are just doing your job as far as the emperor is concerned.

But how many people in the officialdom will hate you because of this incident?

Do you want to move up in the future?
After all, the Emperor is still young. He may change his mind one day and may no longer trust you. What will you do?"

The Shuntian prefect said this to exonerate his family.

But what he said still makes some sense, because we are all still young.

His Majesty the Emperor is young, and he may be acting on impulse now. He wants to arrest the families of these officials and exile them thousands of miles away.

When the emperor regrets his decision later, he will issue an edict to ask them to return.

But in the process, he completely offended these officials.

The emperor would not be hated by officials because of this thing.

Or in other words, what can officials do even if they hate the emperor?
Nor can the emperor be brought down.

But the executor himself is caught in the middle and will definitely be implicated.

When they thought of this, several brothers nearby began to hesitate; they were all still young.

Moreover, they do not have the family background like Li Rubai, so they have to consider their own future even more.

Just like what Shuntian Prefecture Governor said, you are just executors.

You can cut the head or the arm.

It doesn't have to kill everyone.

There is absolutely room for return.

Don’t you think about the future?

To be honest, everyone was moved at this time.

Especially seeing that there are so many young girls and boys in the family of Zuodu Yushi.

If these people were really exiled thousands of miles away, or sent to be slaves of those armored men, it would be truly against the harmony of nature.

After hesitating for a long time, Li Rubai finally made up his mind: "All family members must stay in the mansion and are not allowed to go out.

I will make arrangements for you after I report to His Majesty.

But if you run away at will, you will lose the last chance to be forgiven, and then you can't blame me for enforcing the law impartially at that time."

After Li Rubai said this, several civil servants knelt down at his feet.

They knew that they would definitely die without a burial place.

But if my family can be saved, then this life will be worth it.

After they kowtowed to Li Rubai, they said loudly, "Thank you, Mr. Li, for helping us. Thank you very much!"

The family members of Zuodu Yushi all knelt on the ground to thank Li Rubai for saving their lives.

But several Jinyiwei immediately stepped forward and said, "Boss, if His Majesty doesn't agree to this, then we will..."

Before he could finish his words, Li Rubai immediately took all the responsibility on himself: "It is me who wants to release them today, so whether it is your Majesty or the court officials who blame me, it is all my fault. It has nothing to do with you."

The other Jinyiwei brothers all showed guilt on their faces.

They can't be as free and easy as Li Rubai.

Because even if Li Rubai didn't resign and returned to Liaodong, he would still be a rich second-generation official...
