Chapter 101: The arrogant Tu Jie was beaten by a group of people, but why did he arrest a censor? (Please subscribe!!)
"Since Mr. Tu also feels that this person is guilty, he should be punished if he is guilty. If it is illegal, how can he be punished according to the law and maintain the dignity of the royal family."
Ouyang Lun said with a smile.
Hearing this, Tu Jie's mouth twitched, his eyes were almost murderous, and he asked in a deep voice: "I wonder how the consort wants to be punished?"
Ouyang Lun shook his head, "Master Tu is wrong. You are the censor Zhongcheng. You are most familiar with the laws and etiquette of the Ming Dynasty. You don't need to ask me how to punish him, right?"
The corners of Tu Jie's mouth twitched again.
"Master" Ah Fu looked at Tu Jie with a pleading look.
"Tu Afu despises the prince-in-law, he should rely on twenty!"
"Are you satisfied, Prince Consort?"
Tu Jie said every word from his mouth.
Ouyang Lun shook his head again, "Lord Tu Jie, you are wrong again this time. I am just the prefect of Yong'an Prefecture, and this Tu Afu is your servant, which is your family matter. You have the final say on how to handle it!"
"No need to ask me. Of course, if Mr. Tu doesn't want to execute the execution himself, I can arrange for two government officials to do it for you."
Tu Afu quickly knelt down and begged Tu Jie, "Master, please don't hand me over to them! With twenty sticks, they will definitely beat me to death for me!"
Tu Jie couldn't bear to let go of this subordinate. He had followed him since he was a child and was his confidant.
"Since the prince-in-law said that this is my own business, then I won't bother the prince-in-law. I will carry out the execution myself!" Tu Jie said solemnly.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Ouyang Lun's eyes. He must know that if his government officials were to take action, Tu Afu would never be able to get off the execution platform. After all, there was a lot of knowledge in the beating board.
This is also a well-known thing.
"Since Lord Tu wants to execute the execution himself, he must need tools!"
"Come here! Prepare all the tools for execution for Master Tu!"
As soon as Ouyang Lun gave the order, the officials immediately brought in the execution wooden platform.
"Master Tu, please!"
"Oh! I forgot to remind Mr. Tu, but don't think about letting it go. So many people in the government office are watching. I am nothing, but my wife, Her Royal Highness Princess Anqing, is a scornful person. If she finds out about the person who cannot tolerate sand, she will definitely write to the Queen and tell her. If the Queen knows about it, His Majesty the Emperor will also know about it."
"This matter will definitely not be clear in the end."
"Master Tu, you understand what I mean."
"." Tu Jie took the killing stick and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Prince Consort, for reminding me! I, Tu Jie, will never cheat!"
Soon, Tu Afu's miserable screams could be heard in the government office.
For a full twenty blows, Tu Jie showed no mercy. Halfway through the beating, Tu Afu was knocked unconscious and was finally carried away.
"Master Tu, please sit down."
Afterwards, Ouyang Lun arranged Tu Jie to a reception hall.
Tu Jie sat down and said in a deep voice: "Ouyang Prince Consort is such a powerful official!"
Ouyang Lun did not change at all in response to Tu Jie's attack. He smiled and said, "Master Tu, where do you start with these words?"
"You know it yourself!" Tu Jie saw that Ouyang Lun was pretending to be confused. He originally wanted to fight back, but he felt that his punch was on the cotton, which was not a threat to Ouyang Lun at all, and he couldn't help but feel even more depressed.
"Master Tu, let's talk about business. Why did you come to Yong'an Mansion this time?"
Ouyang Lun kept an eye on Tu Jie all the time. The most important thing now was to figure out the purpose of Tu Jie's coming to him. Only by figuring this out would he be able to grab the medicine and quickly get rid of the time bomb that was Tu Jie.
Hu Weiyong's party has at most one year left to thrive. At this time, there are too many contacts with people from Hu Weiyong's party. With Zhu Yuanzhang's jealous and suspicious character, Zhu Yuanzhang will inevitably suspect that he and Hu Weiyong are in the same party.
Who is Zhu Yuanzhang?That is a guy who never shows mercy when he kills people. Unless he is his own son, his status as consort will not save his life at all!
When Hu Weiyong falls and Zhu Yuanzhang raises his butcher knife high, I don’t know how many officials’ heads will have to be moved!
Tu Jie picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. Then he calmed down and sorted out his thoughts in his mind. Then he said: "Ouyang Prince Consort, I came to Yong'an Mansion actually on behalf of Prime Minister Hu. The Prime Minister learned about your affairs in Kaiping County and the entire Yong'an Mansion, so he started to cherish your talent."
"If you are willing to follow Prime Minister Hu, you will surely rise to the top of the Ming Dynasty's officialdom in the future! There will be no more obstacles!"
As if to be more convincing, Tu Jie continued: "Lu Xian, the son of Lu Zhongheng, the Marquis of Ji'an, and Li Qi, the eldest son of Grand Master Han Gong Li Shan, were both promoted and reused by the Prime Minister."
Hearing this, Ouyang Lun sneered inwardly. Lu Zhongheng and Li Shanchang were both Hu Weiyong's die-hard political allies, and their sons were naturally close to Hu Weiyong.
After being repeatedly made things difficult for him, Tu Jie could still suppress his temper to recruit him. It seemed that Hu Weiyong was also anxious! But I'm not that easy to fool. I would never do anything like joining the National Army in 49.
If you join Hu Weiyong's camp at this time, you will undoubtedly be on the death list. Even if you are the consort, Zhu Yuanzhang will probably not let him go.
"Master Tu seems to be confused. Hu Xianggui is the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty, so he is naturally the head of the officials. Small prefects like us must also obey the Prime Minister's instructions."
"As for other words, I can't understand them."
After hearing Ouyang Lun's answer, Tu Jie's expression changed and he looked at Ouyang Lun with a serious face.
Just pretend to be stupid, right?
Since you don't listen to my good words, then don't blame me for using tricks.
"Ouyang Lun, don't think that Hu Xiang and I don't know what you did in Yong'an Mansion. How much money you embezzled behind the court's back and how many wrong things you did!"
Tu Jie scolded.
"We secretly opened a stock exchange, collected money, and bribed officials from Beizhili and Shandong provinces. We know all about it!"
Snapped! The more Tu Jie said, the more powerful he became. Finally, he slapped the table and stood up. His momentum was like an overwhelming force, pressing towards Ouyang Lun, as if he wanted to overwhelm the latter! "Hu Xiang cherishes talents, so let me persuade you to join us. We are all our own people. Of course, some things don't need to be taken seriously. You are good, I am good, everyone is good, but if you don't know what is good or bad, we only need to write these things into a memorial If you send it to His Majesty's Dragon Case, what do you think will happen to you?"
"Be quartered by five horses, executed at Lingchi, or skinned and stuffed with grass?"
After saying that, Tu Jie waved his sleeves domineeringly.
In his opinion, no one can stop his attack. As long as Ouyang Lun is not stupid, he will choose to cooperate and surrender honestly.
But the next second, Ouyang Lun laughed loudly and said: "Please Master Tu, please tell your Majesty all these things quickly!"
"Finally, let's see if His Majesty is on your side or mine!"
"I, Ouyang Lun, don't cause trouble, but I'm never afraid of it. If I talk nicely, it's not impossible for us to cooperate. After all, no one has trouble with money. But you insist on holding my head. Sorry, I will definitely cooperate with you." Hard steel to the end!”
Tu Jie was a little shocked to see Ouyang Lun not panicking at all, but showing confidence.
He Tu Jie has also seen many corrupt officials who immediately surrendered after being exposed, or they were hysterical and attacked randomly, but this was the first time he had seen Ouyang Lun with such a calm face and full of confidence.
How dare Ouyang Lun dare to be so greedy! and many more.
Ouyang Lun was so unscrupulous. Perhaps His Majesty the Emperor already knew this and acquiesced.
hiss--
Thinking of this possibility, Tu Jie took a breath of cold air.
This possibility is very high. His Majesty the Emperor came to Yong'an Mansion for at least two private visits in private, and he was able to find out. So, would His Majesty the Emperor, who has a royal guard, still not be able to find out?Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor also left Mao Xiang, the commander of Jinyi Guards, in Yong'an Mansion.
Moreover, the relationship between Mao Xiang and Ouyang Lun seems very unusual.
At this moment, Tu Jie became more and more convinced that Ouyang Lun had the support of His Majesty the Emperor! At this moment, several officials walked in.
"Wu De, the magistrate of Yong'an Prefecture, has met Mr. Cheng Tu, the imperial censor!"
"Zhao Tianming, who has experienced the Yong'an Prefecture in Xiaguan, has met the Censor Zhongcheng Tu!" "The magistrate of Funing County in the Yong'an Prefecture in Xiaguan has met the Censor Zhongcheng Tu!"
At once almost all the officials of Yong'an Mansion arrived.
Tu Jie's face darkened and he looked at Ouyang Lun. He understood that with so many Yong'an officials here, it was hard for him to get angry casually.
How much better than humans?But they are all minor officials and do not pose any threat to this censor.
"Haha! Brother Tu! You came all the way from the capital to Yong'an Mansion, and you didn't come to see me. Isn't this very interesting!"
Hearing this voice, everyone looked in the direction of the voice and looked out the hall door, and found that the person who came was none other than Li Fuyuan, the inspector of Northern Zhili.
"Brother Li!"
Li Fuyuan's qualifications are not much worse than Tu Jie's, and he is also a high-ranking official in the border areas. Tu Jie may not be given face by others, but Li Fuyuan's face must still be given.
"Tu Jie, I still recognize you!"
Another voice sounded.
An old man wearing a crimson official uniform walked in.
"Wu Jingzhi!"
Tu Jie exclaimed.
Tu Jie was instrumental in demoting Wu Jingzhi from the capital to the local government.
"Since you know me, you should know that you are not welcome to come to Beizhili. If I had known you were coming, I would have made sure that you couldn't even come to Beizhili!" Wu Jingzhi said solemnly.
Forehead. If the colleagues, experiencers, and county magistrates who just came in were all minor officials, these two were high-ranking officials wearing crimson official uniforms, and they were also high-ranking officials with real power in their hands.
Unexpectedly, he was just looking for trouble for Ouyang Lun, but so many people came forward.
Is Yong'an Mansion so united?
"Brother Tu, if nothing happens, I advise you to leave!"
Li Fuyuan advised.
"Tu Jie, get out of here, you are not welcome here!"
"If you still want to trick your censor, be careful when you leave Yong'an Mansion!"
Wu Jingzhi threatened directly.
"Yeah!"
Tu Jie pointed to the hall and Ouyang Lun and others acknowledged, "I am the Censor Zhongcheng! I have the responsibility of supervising all officials. I will definitely report to Your Majesty what you say and do today!"
"The whole Yong'an Mansion is really brave, forming a clique for personal gain, just to embezzle tens of millions of silver taels!"
"When I report to Your Majesty, not one of you here can escape!"
As soon as this word comes out.
The atmosphere of the entire hall suddenly changed.
Obviously what Tu Jie said made them very angry.
Forming a party for personal gain? ! Corruption and bribery? ! This is pouring dirty water on them! The one who couldn't bear it the most was Wu Jingzhi. When he was demoted to Beizhili, Tu Jie was among them, and he was still framed like this today. Naturally, he had to understand the old and new grudges together.
"Tu Jie, you bastard, you piece of shit censor!"
"I'm going to tear your bad mouth apart today so that you can never frame others again!"
After the words fell, Wu Jingzhi stepped forward and put his hands directly towards Tu Jie's face.
Tu Jie was startled when he saw this and backed away.
However, the entire hall was surrounded by Yong'an Mansion officials. Tu Jie took a few steps back and bumped into other officials.
"Master Yushi Zhongcheng, are you okay?"
"Get out of the way!" Seeing Wu Jingzhi rushing forward, Tu Jie quickly asked the officials to get out of the way, but the Yong'an Mansion officials remained motionless and could not get out no matter how hard Tu Jie tried.
"Tu Jie!"
Wu Jingzhi yelled, threw Tu Jie to the ground, and the two started fighting.
Seeing this, Ouyang Lun said loudly: "Why are you still looking at me? Hurry up and pull the two adults away!"
Immediately, the surrounding officials swarmed in!
Boom!
dong dong!
"Master Yushi Zhongcheng, please stop fighting!"
"Master Yushi Zhongcheng, calm down your anger and don't do anything!"
"Don't even move your feet!"
After a while, everyone pulled Tu Jie and Wu Jingzhi away.
Except for Wu Jingzhi's official uniform being a little messy, there was nothing major.
But Tu Jie was beaten into a pig's head, with dozens of footprints all over his body.
Tu Jie stood in the middle and roared: "Who kicked me just now, and poked me in the back, who! If you have the ability, stand up!"
Of course no one will admit it.
Ouyang Lun stood up and said slowly: "Master Tu, we are all officials of the Ming Dynasty, so I will save some face for you."
"I'm very happy that you came to inspect Yong'an Mansion, but first you allowed your subordinates to be disrespectful to the royal family, and then you accused me, the officials of Yong'an Mansion, of colluding and forming cliques for personal gain!"
"In my opinion, you are the ones who are really forming cliques for selfish purposes and colluding with each other!"
"I still say the same thing. You have discovered something illegal in Yong'an Mansion and you have evidence. You can report it to His Majesty and let His Majesty make a decision!"
"But if it is empty talk, I will just think that you are making a false accusation. Clay figures also have tempers. I want you to know this."
"Of course, if you, Mr. Hu and Mr. Tu, want our Yong'an Mansion to donate some money to you, just tell us the amount and we will work hard to get it together!"
After saying this, everyone turned their attention to Tu Jie.
Tu Jie gradually calmed down at this moment. He knew that this was Ouyang Lun's background. He really made these people anxious, and he might not be able to return to Beijing.
But it is naturally impossible for him to admit defeat to Ouyang Lun.
"In that case, I have nothing to say!"
"Your Majesty will naturally get to the bottom of this matter when it comes to it!"
"Besides, you imprisoned the imperial censor as a spy. You must release him now!"
Ah! Doctor Censor?
Still got arrested?
Everyone was dumbfounded. (End of this chapter)
