3700. Chapter 3700 You die and I live 6
On this day, an uninvited guest came to Cining Palace. It was when night fell. It was one of the former confidant eunuchs of Emperor Hongwen, named Zhao Hei.
His real name is Zhao Hai. He was a small official in Liangzhou during the Northern Liang era. In the past, Luo Jia destroyed Northern Liang. He became an eunuch and was able to become an official in the Northern Wei Dynasty. He did a good job and worked well. He was always at Shizhong and Duke of Henei.
There was an unexpected situation. Five years ago, Zhao Hei offended Li Xin because of a trivial matter. It is said that he was at a banquet at that time. He was arrogant and made Li Xin lose face. Li Xin held a grudge since then, and he tried every means to find him to mess with him.
Zhao Hei's handle is not difficult to find. He is greedy for small gains and is too greedy. It is common for corruption and bribery. Moreover, because he is a confidant eunuch, there will naturally be many people bribing him. Over time, he became a big fat man, and soon he became rich.
Eunuchs were the most greedy group in all dynasties. Because of their physical incompleteness, they were even more fanatical about gold and silver. It was completely easy for people like Zhao Hei to find him with Li Xin's cunningness. Li Xin didn't know where to find an informant, and listed the list of stolen goods at his house clearly and handed it to Emperor Hongwen.
Emperor Hongwen once ordered rectifications many times, and what he hated the most was the corruption of officials. Now, seeing his eunuchs being listed so many property. He was shocked and immediately sent someone to Zhao Hei's house to search. Sure enough, everything was placed openly at home.
There are even many things that are not listed on the list.
Emperor Hongwen, after all, thought that he had been with him for so many years and had made contributions to the administration, and he was considered to be a kindness from outside the law. He just removed Zhao Hei's servant, confiscated all his embezzled property, and asked him to be a sect in the palace, which is the role of the gatekeeper today.
