Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible

Chapter 689: I was so angry that I died

Zhao Mingqiao settled down in Tianlao with peace of mind.

Chen Guanlou opened a small backdoor for him, and important members of the Youth Society came to him every few days for meetings.

Even if someone had some small opinions, they would swallow them all after being glared at by Chen Guanlou. Tianlao’s chief prisoner Chen was the most powerful, and Chen’s words were the law and the rules.

When he had time, he went to the C-shaped prison and looked at the servants of Zheng’s mansion.

Zhao Mingqiao was already in Tianlao, but these people had not been released yet, and the lawsuit in the court had not been finished. They all looked miserable, and the torture room was obviously very careful. Old Zhang was awarded a great merit, and his bonus was doubled.

He ordered Xu Fugui, "Take some time to ask the Zheng family if these servants can get anything for free? They are wasting food in the cell every day. If they don’t, don’t blame us for following the rules."

Xu Fugui didn’t understand the spirit, and asked curiously, "Excuse me, sir, what are the rules?"

Chen Guanlou kicked him, saying it was useless.

"The rule is that all prisoners who waste food will be killed, do you understand?"

Xu Fugui:...

I don't quite understand!

There was no such rule before.

"The Ministry of Justice has not sent down any official documents. If too many people die at once, I'm afraid I can't complete the task."

"Does this official need you to remind me? Go and ask them quickly. If you rescue someone, hint that they will pay money and be well fed in Tianlao. If you don't rescue someone, all will die."

Xu Fugui blinked and finally realized the core element, "Does the lord have a grudge against Zheng Daochong?"

Chen Guanlou laughed and left, leaving Xu Fugui with a chic back.

Xu Fugui:...

It's so tiring to serve a moody superior!

The Zheng family didn't pay to rescue anyone after all.

Chen Guanlou was not polite either, and all the monthly death quotas were given to the servants of the Zheng family. This is the fate of following the wrong master. Spread the word that Zheng Daochong is stingy and intolerant.

Zheng Daochong was already slightly inferior to Xiao Changsheng in the fight, and now his reputation was ruined by the Tianlao, and his health had not been well. When winter came, he fell ill again!

Chen Guanlou sneaked into Zheng's house and took a look, and concluded that the surname Zheng would not live long!

Unless the other party is willing to give up his own kung fu and become an ordinary person.

The cultivation accumulated by elixirs is indeed unreliable, and there are indeed great sequelae.

He passed the news to Xiao Changsheng.

Xiao Changsheng learned that Zheng Daochong's illness could not be stimulated, otherwise it would be very easy to go crazy, and he immediately got excited. He specifically found trouble with Zheng Daochong, bribed the censor to impeach the surname Zheng, robbed the Zheng family's business in business, robbed the Zheng family's water source in agriculture, and sniped from all directions.

Any favorite minister would not allow another favorite minister to share the emperor's favor.

Xiao Changsheng's hostility towards Zheng Daochong was greater than anyone else.

He often blew wind in front of Emperor Jianshi, and made up a few words from time to time. Even if Emperor Jianshi didn't believe it at first, he couldn't help but take it seriously after seeing it so many times.

Privately, Emperor Jianshi asked the eunuchs around him, "Is Zheng Aiqing really so unpopular? He is a second-class Jinshi and a disciple of Qingyun Sect."

Wang Defa, a trusted eunuch around Emperor Jianshi.

Bowing slightly, Wang Defa said softly, "Perhaps it's because Lord Zheng is a little radical in his work and doesn't get along well with other court officials in the court."

Emperor Jianshi hummed, "I thought that with his background and my trust, many officials would definitely lean towards him. Unexpectedly, I miscalculated."

Emperor Jianshi thought that Zheng Daochong would be the second Jiang Tu, with a bunch of minions under his command, and middle and lower-level officials working for him, forming a new party, known as the Flatterer Party. He never expected that he would be able to fight with the traditional court officials headed by Li Liangcheng, but he miscalculated.

Middle and lower-level officials would rather join Jiang Tu, a scum, than Zheng Daochong.

"Zheng Aiqing is not a good person!"

Emperor Jianshi also understood the truth and pointed to the core.

The essence does not lie in whether one is a scholar or a Jinshi.

The essence lies in one's character.

Everyone scolds Jiang Tu for being unlearned, but no one has ever scolded Jiang Tu for being stingy and intolerant. Jiang Tu is recognized as generous. His lackeys, no matter whether they are high-ranking or low-ranking officials, can enjoy a good life by following him, and they can get rich and get promoted in just a few years.

So, many middle and lower-level officials have to join Jiang Tu shamelessly.

Zheng Daochong is exactly the opposite. He is stingy and intolerant. He shouts for fighting and killing when he disagrees with others. He is cruel to the enemy and to his own people.

No one is willing to follow such a person no matter how capable he is.

In addition to beating and scolding, he charges forward, and he can't get any benefits. Who would do it if he only ordered cattle and horses to work without giving them food and grass!

Only a fool would do it!

And Zheng Daochong is not just like this now.

He was like this when he was a mine supervisor in the mine. That's why, the mine he was in charge of had the highest output and the highest mortality rate, and the relationship with the surrounding people and gentry was the most tense, and conflicts would occur from time to time.

This kind of person, whoever works with him will be unlucky. Therefore, no one is willing to follow him. Even with the emperor's endorsement, he can't attract people.

His character is not good!

Emperor Jianshi was very disappointed with this.

If there was no comparison, Emperor Jianshi would have tolerated it because Zheng Daochong was good at making money.

Now with Xiao Changsheng as a comparison, this unlearned guy has won over a lot of people around him, and even bribed a group of censors to help impeach Zheng Daochong.

Apart from other things, Xiao Changsheng is ten streets ahead of Zheng in terms of winning people's hearts.

So, Emperor Jianshi had an idea in his mind.

Soon, the idea turned into a decision.

While Zheng Daochong was on leave to recuperate, Wang Defa went to Zheng's house to read the imperial edict in person. Zheng Daochong was allowed to recover from his illness with peace of mind, and the position of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue was temporarily replaced by someone else. Being free from official duties was conducive to physical recovery. In order to show that the emperor valued him and did not intend to remove him from office, he was given generous rewards and various gold and silver treasures.

Zheng Daochong was stunned, and only came to his senses after being reminded and accepted the imperial edict.

After supporting his body to send Wang Defa away, he vomited blood and fainted.

Xiao Changsheng was so happy that he held a flower-style banquet at home to celebrate the fall of the surname Zheng.

Zheng Daochong was so angry that he became obsessed and his life was hanging by a thread.

Xiao Changsheng took the opportunity to bribe the servants of the Zheng Mansion and told the surname Zheng a news: the other party's favorite courtesan had been bought by him, Xiao Changsheng. Not only did he buy the courtesan, but he also took in his concubine who was kept outside.

Puff!

Blood sprayed on the spot!

How could Zheng Daochong, who was narrow-minded and vindictive, bear such a great humiliation? Back then, Wu Qiye and his friends only commented on his articles, but he still holds a grudge against them. Now, his woman was robbed and he was cuckolded. His already weak body was further damaged, and the imperial physician said he was helpless.

Everyone in the Zheng Mansion was shocked!

Why is it so!

He was fine some time ago, how come he is gone in the blink of an eye!

"It's not that I don't want to, but I'm powerless. Mr. Zheng took too many pills in his early years and was eager for success, which left him with a root of illness. In addition, he refused to rest and relax, and didn't get too sad or happy. He didn't do anything I asked him to do. Now, I can't do anything."
