"Hehe, who made the country lord so angry?”Luo Yangxing walked in with a few Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Zhou Kui was shocked. When he saw who it was, he howled,
"Aiyo, aiyo, I can't live like this. If I donate one million taels of silver, my family will be destitute. I will be in debt and bankrupt. I will be poor and have nothing. I will have a name and a house like a hanging chime. I will be like a rope hanging from a window, surrounded by desolation and empty…Wuwuwu ~! I don't want to live anymore, I can't live anymore…"
Zhou Kui was wailing at the end of his sentence, and Luo Yangxing was really at his wit's end. He scratched his head and took a deep breath.
"My condolences, Country Father. This lowly official is following the Emperor's orders.”
Under the emperor's orders?
Zhou Kui immediately stopped wailing. He stood up and waved at Liu Fu, who tactfully retreated.
Then, Zhou Kui, who was suddenly in high spirits, threw down his 'soup lady', got off the brick bed, and sat down. Then, he made an inviting gesture to Luo Yangxing.
Luo Yangxing did not stand on ceremony and sat on the armchair next to Zhou Kui.
"Father, this lowly official really doesn't know how to begin. Someone, someone is impeaching you in court. The Emperor asked me to look for the country's father because he didn't want to make too much noise.”
Zhou Kui was shocked, and his expression was obviously not right."May I know what kind of sage you have?"
Luo Yang was mysterious. He took out a stack of documents from his pocket.
"Please take a look, Country Father. These are all taken from the imperial table of the Palace of Heavenly Purity by the Emperor. He said that he wanted Country Father to take a closer look.”
If Zhou Kui was still a little nervous at this moment, he took the document from Luo Yangxing's hand.
With just a glance, his entire body trembled, and then bean-sized sweat flowed down from his forehead.
The memorial clearly remembered how much money Zhou Kui received from a local official on a certain day.
For example, in the sixth year of Chongzhen, the Guangxi Armament Iron Cannon Manufacturing Factory donated 13,600 taels of silver to the government. Guozhang said: We should work hard, and later the armament casting cannon supervisor was promoted to Guangxi governor.
Another example was the eighth day of June in the eighth year of Chongzhen. It was sunny. Yuan Mo, the governor of Henan Province, was arrested and imprisoned for his ineffective suppression of bandits. Later, he bribed Zhou Kui with 30,000 taels of gold and silver and was released.
Later on, it listed in detail all kinds of despicable acts of Zhou Kui's bribery and bribery.
Some even remembered the time, place, weather, and even the conversation between the two parties clearly.
"Slander, slander, absolutely slander. This old man has been honest all my life and has never dealt with these people. Slander, it's all slander!"
Zhou Kui's throat trembled, and the hand holding the impeachment document trembled slightly.
Luo Yangxing's lips curled into a smile.""Country Lord, we'll know if he's slandering the Embroidered Uniform Guards. All the parties involved in these cases were still alive. There was more than one witness in many cases. If we really investigate, can you bear the responsibility?”
Zhou Kui was very clear about Chongzhen's methods. Moreover, these were all taken from the Chongzhen case table.
It's over. I'm dead this time. I'll be cut into pieces and my family's property will be confiscated.
Zhou Kui knelt down with a thud and immediately went limp on the ground. He kowtowed like pounding garlic."This minister deserves to die, this minister deserves to die…"
Luo Yangxing hurriedly helped him up. If the Emperor really wanted to do you, would I still be so polite to you?”
Zhou Kui was stunned. That's right.
If Chongzhen really wanted to investigate him, the Jinyiwei would be so fierce. Regardless of whether you were a relative of the emperor or not, they would have long ordered the house to be raided.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards captured the relatives of the imperial family.
"Then, then what does Commander Luo mean?”Zhou Kui was a little confused.
Luo Yangxing smiled and helped him back to his chair.""Same old rules. As long as the country's father donates money again, the emperor will let bygones be bygones. The Emperor said that they were family after all. I have to give face to the Empress and the Crown Prince. As long as the country's father is willing to pay, I will let bygones be bygones.”
Taking money again!
Luo Yangxing could clearly see two streams of tears flowing down from the corners of Zhou Kui's eyes.
I just donated one million taels of silver, and now I'm here again.
"Country Father, Country Father?" Luo Yangxing called him softly.
Zhou Kui, who had nothing to live for, slowly turned his head and replied mechanically,"This old man still has four walls and no money. If you want to capture me, then capture me. Just kill me.”
If he asked for more money, Zhou Kui would rather die than be scalded.
The one million taels from last time had already made him lose interest in life. If he wanted to make money again this time, he might as well die.
Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit. He had naturally seen many things like the Brocade Guard. Luo Yangxing sneered and said,
"Since Country Father says so, then this lowly official can only be impolite. However, Country Father, I still advise you. You also know the Emperor's temper. He didn't want to lose his family fortune and end up in prison. What kind of place is the imperial prison?”
Zhou Kui's body trembled and he looked at him in horror.""How, how much?"
Luo Yangxing didn't answer and only extended five fingers.
"50,000 taels?" Zhou Kui asked cautiously.
This time, Luo Yangxing shook his head.”
With a thud, Zhou Kui fell backward.
