Li Shangshu, who didn't even want to look old, was now embracing a beautiful woman, drinking fine wine, and enjoying double happiness, almost flying to the sky.
As soon as a person relaxes, his mouth will also relax.
Normally, I would be cautious, holding my eggs across the river, for fear of saying the wrong thing or doing the wrong thing, but now I became so unscrupulous.
"You two have to serve me well. I will be promoted to prime minister when I return home, but you are not the one who can serve me... As a person like me, I only like young and beautiful people!"
The two girls who had just turned 20 were so frightened that their expressions changed. They threw themselves on Li Mengeng and said delicately: "Master Xiang... I know you are nostalgic, but you can't leave us!"
"Prime Minister?" Li Menggeng was startled. One of the women in light green clothes smiled and said, "You didn't say that. You are about to become the prime minister. How can you still lie to our little girl?"
When Li Menggeng heard this, he couldn't help but pinch the other person's cheek, and smiled even more wildly.
"Okay, just because of your cleverness, this department...the Prime Minister will not forget you, don't worry!" Li Menggeng said with a smile: "Prime Minister Li has already told me that he wants to recommend me to participate in politics, Li Shanchang is talking to me
It still counts, but when he is in a higher position, he can only be half a family, and he can’t make a final decision yet.”
"Then what should we do? The slave family is still waiting to serve the prime minister!"
Seeing the woman looking at him with admiration on her face, Li Menggeng's heart was filled with joy and he became more and more proud.
"Don't worry, the truth is true. Naturally, there are people more powerful than Li Shanchang to help us! You don't know... I am revising the system of punishment, and there are only a few days until the first draft is completed. I told Prime Minister Zhang that Zhang
The meaning of "Xiang" is that the laws and regulations must be tested in practice... Listen to me, Xiang Zhang is very good at coining words, and a practice will help us a lot!"
The two girls stared at Li Mengeng, expressing confusion.
"You don't know the rules here! What Zhang said about practice is to announce the interim regulations, first let the criminal system operate, and completely replace the Yuan court's laws." Li Menggeng said with a smile: "Don't look at the ascended throne as King Wu.
What Prime Minister Zhang is tinkering with is redefining the outline... This is all lip service. The real key is the punishment system. The one I use is still Yuanting's, but some obviously inappropriate ones have been eliminated. The only choice is to wait for our punishment system.
Once the system is announced, then we can really rebuild the world!"
"Hey, Prime Minister, you are so awesome! Please tell me, what are the awesome features of this new punishment system? It will open our eyes!"
Li Menggeng wanted to say a few words, but when he looked outside, the sky was a little gloomy, and he had to do business! He laughed and said: "What do you want that dead thing for? No matter how the punishment is ordered, it will not hinder us from enjoying the blessings of the people."
!Speaking of which, if you want to open your eyes and see the world, just take a look at Mr. Li!"
As he spoke, Li Menggeng stretched out his arms to hug one of them, and panting, he rushed towards the large ivory-carved and gold-streaked bed, causing the woman to scream in surprise. The other woman wanted to run away, but Li Menggeng, who was young and had good hands and feet, managed to catch her too.
At this time, the woman in green had already sat up and said angrily to Li Mengeng: "Master Prime Minister, people say that the Prime Minister has a high position and is in charge of the country, and his belly can row a boat... But you are still so impatient, let us sisters accompany you
Drinking with the Prime Minister, chatting while drinking... I will dance a song for the Prime Minister, and Nuer sister will play the piano for the Prime Minister, what a good night!"
Li Menggeng was startled and said with a smile: "Yes, that's a good saying!" He shouted outside, "Old Wang, bring some dishes over."
No one answered outside, but there seemed to be footsteps. Li Menggeng didn't pay attention to it, but sat on the Taishi chair. The two beauties also rushed over and surrounded Li Menggen, teasing and chatting.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and it was probably Lao Wang who came in with wine and food.
"Just put it on the table, you can get out!" Li Menggeng said without raising his head.
The other party listened to the order and put a few side dishes and a pot of wine on the table, but did not leave. He just looked down at Li Menggeng.
Being obscured by a huge back, Li Menggeng also felt unhappy. What happened to this old Wang? Didn't he see that I was about to do something serious?
"Why don't you quit yet!"
Li Menggeng subconsciously raised his head and saw Zhu Yuanzhang's livid face, trying his best to squeeze out a terrifying smile.
"Ms. Li, do you think we should obey your orders?"
"Go up... go up!"
Li Menggeng grinned and slipped out of the chair to the ground. With a thud, the two women were so frightened that they rolled and crawled away. They retreated far away and crawled on the ground, trembling.
Li Menggeng's mind was completely blank. Where am I? Who am I? What have I done?
Seeing his appearance, Zhu Yuanzhang was not in a hurry. Instead, he placed the dishes on the table, picked up the wine glass, and poured himself a glass.
The wine was slightly red in color. Zhu Yuanzhang put it under his nose, smelled it carefully, and took another sip.
"With deer blood added? You, Mr. Li, will still enjoy it!"
After finishing speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang poured the remaining wine on Li Menggen's face.
ah!
This suddenly made Li Mengeng wake up.
"Superior, superior, please spare my life!"
He knelt on the ground, kowtowed, cried profusely, with snot and tears streaming down his face. Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't stand it, so he raised his foot and tapped Li Mengeng's old face with the sole of his shoe.
"You are an old man who followed us across the river, and you have seen a lot of life and death. What we don't want to see is crying and useless virtues. Just say it more simply and don't make us trouble. Maybe you can save the lives of your family, otherwise
Your fate and your family’s fate will not be any better than that of the Wang family!”
Li Menggeng was stunned again. After a moment, he kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, I, I have betrayed my kindness and righteousness. I deserve to die!"
…
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly visited the residence of the Minister of Punishment and immediately caught Li Menggeng in the act. The old man before crossing the river, the civil servant in charge of the Transfer Department and the Punishment Department, just fell down.
Not to mention the courtiers, even the two prime ministers were stunned... Zhang Ximeng was stunned for a while, and then he said to Song Lian: "I also said that I would let the Ministry of Punishment take the lead and explain the Wang family's case to all officials to alert the world.
.Unexpectedly, Li Menggeng himself became a negative example first."
When Song Lian heard this, he couldn't help but sigh, "Prime Minister Zhang, government administration is never a trivial matter, especially when you have just started a business. Li Menggeng must punish him severely. But will he anger Prime Minister Zhang if he is in power?"
Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, "That's not true. Speaking of which, I have to thank Jiang Tiju. She has long found out the evidence that Li Menggeng was corrupt and perverted the law. This time I will just hand it over to the lord. It's just that Mr. Li really admires Li Menggen."
Yes, they are colleagues from the same hometown, if he is angered, I will not care about him."
Song Lian also laughed, "Li Xiang brought it upon himself, and no one else is to blame."
Zhang Ximeng thought for a while, then called Jiang Nan over, "You haven't attended the imperial meeting yet, have you?"
"No." Jiang Nan said honestly.
Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "Okay, this time you are responsible for bringing your ears and eyes to feel it! Temples are much more interesting than Buddhist halls."
Jiang Nan obediently agreed and followed Zhang Ximeng. Song Lian could only sigh incompetently, who made him such an old and yellow man unpopular!
Zhang Ximeng followed Jiang Nan to see Zhu Yuanzhang and explain Li Mengeng's case.
On the other side, Li Shanchang took the lead and came to Zhu Yuanzhang and cried to Lao Zhu.
"Your Excellency, I, I have found out recently that it was Li Menggeng, a beast, who bribed my entourage and took advantage of the opportunity of sending things to me from Yingtian to send the bag of Longjing tea to Hangzhou and put it in my possession.
The desk was later taken away by Prime Minister Zhang, which led to the Wang family's case. From beginning to end, I didn't know anything about it, and I was harmed by this beast!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised, "Is there such a thing?"
"Indeed, I have both human and material evidence here, and I can call Li Menggeng. I am willing to confront him... It seems that I was negligent. I thought I was an old friend. I have followed you for many years and worked sincerely, so I neglected to take precautions. I
, I made an oversight."
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly: "Indeed, don't you still want to recommend Li Menggeng to serve as a political advisor? How about your ability to know people?"
Li Shanchang was suddenly stunned, and then quickly said: "After the superior said this, I want to understand. Does Li Menggeng think that I don't know his methods, so he has a way to use the people around me to frame me! Then he can replace me!"
"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he pondered for a while. That guy Li Menggeng swore solemnly and regarded himself as Prime Minister Li. In his words, he looked down on Zhang Ximeng and Li Shanchang. Maybe this guy really thought so!
It really deserves to be killed!
"I really didn't expect that Li Menggeng would be so treacherous and evil. You should be more careful in the future, especially when it comes to knowing people. Don't be careless... Even Mr. Zhang was deceived by Li Menggeng and said that he would
After the punishment is completed, I will also recommend him!"
"What?"
Li Shanchang was ecstatic, oh my God!
It turns out that Zhang Ximeng also fell into this pit!
God bless, may the gods and Buddhas open their eyes!
For many years, it was Zhang Ximeng who had always bullied him. He was obviously the left prime minister and was in charge of Zhongshu Province, but he was always lower than Zhang Ximeng.
But it was his turn to be unlucky, and Lao Li was simply happier than if he had won the gold medal.
But it cannot be exposed on the surface.
"Your superiors, Li Menggeng is still very diligent in cultivating the system of punishment. After all, Prime Minister Zhang is a bit younger. He doesn't know that people's hearts are unpredictable and the world is dangerous!"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly without saying anything, which was regarded as acquiescing to Li Shanchang's statement. Who could not make some mistakes!
At this time, Zhang Ximeng and Jiang Nan arrived.
After the salute, Zhang Ximeng stood there, followed closely by Jiang Nan, standing with his hands lowered.
"Prime Minister Zhang, that beast Li Menggeng has been exposed by us and is in jail pending investigation."
Zhang Ximeng said quickly: "Congratulations, my lord, for catching a silverfish... I also have something to report here. Li Menggeng acted corruptly in the Wang family's case. Preliminary investigation revealed that the amount was over hundreds of thousands taels, and it involved acres of land...
...I think we should conduct a thorough investigation again and never let this beast go!"
After finishing speaking, Zhang Ximeng handed a list to Zhu Yuanzhang... At this time, Li Shanchang flashed a strange expression, and he was ten thousand times more depressed than his dead father!
