Liu Ziguang is still alive. Shi Kefa is not surprised at all. How could the most powerful general in the Ming Dynasty and the founder of the first secret service organization Nanchang be killed so easily? Moreover, the imperial court has issued a document to remind Liu Ziguang that Liu Ziguang may still be alive. Let Shi Kefa
What surprised me was that Liu Ziguang actually came to Jinan in a big way, instead of hiding his whereabouts and sneaking into the Red Shirt Army base areas like Qingdao or Shanxi, because Jinan Mansion was still the territory of the imperial court after all, and there was no Red Shirt Army soldier stationed there. Could it be that he
Don't be afraid...
When the matter came to an end, it was too late to guess. Shi Kefa was a man of his own opinion after all. He pondered for a moment and said: "Shi Jun, please get rid of all the irrelevant servants. Don't let anyone see the guest. Take the guest with you."
Come to my study and guard it yourself, don't let anyone in."
Shi Jun is Shi Kefa's nephew. Seeing that his uncle was so nervous, he asked, "Do you want my nephew to gather a guard and ambush around the study to protect my uncle?"
Shi Kefa waved his hand: "No, let alone my bodyguard, even thousands of troops are useless in front of this man."
Shi Jun roughly guessed who it was. He couldn't help but feel nervous and worried about his uncle. He said in a deep voice: "I'll do it right now."
Shi Jun came to the gate of the governor's office, cupped his hands and said, "The governor invites you."
Zhang Daniu muttered dissatisfiedly: "Governor Shi is so proud that he didn't come to greet the Duke."
Liu Ziguang smiled freely and said to Zhang Daniu: "Tonight I will hold a candlelight chat with the governor. You can go back."
Zhang Daniu was sent away, and Liu Ziguang followed Shi Jun into the Yamen. There was no one there along the way. The huge governor's Yamen was deserted and empty. Liu Ziguang naturally knew that this was Shi Kefa's arrangement, so he didn't tell anyone and followed Shi Jun.
Go to the study room.
Shi Kefa was dressed in casual clothes, wearing a square scarf and a green shirt. He came out of the study and said: "Brother Shi is coming to the humble house. Xian Zhi is too far away to welcome you. I still hope to see Hai Han. Please hurry inside and invite Shi Jun to make a pot of tea."
When Shi Jun disappeared outside the Moon Gate, Shi Kefa said: "My lord, how did you escape from the capital? During this time, the world is in chaos, the morale of the army is unstable, foreign enemies are watching, and the Ming Dynasty is in danger."
Liu Ziguang said: "Don't worry about this. Help me get a table of food to cushion my stomach. I went all the way north from the capital and passed through the states without stopping. I haven't had a hot meal for several days. I didn't feel I was home until I arrived at Jinan Prefecture.
Ah, I need to have a good rest."
Shi Kefa said: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will go to Zhang Luo immediately."
The stove in the kitchen of the governor's office had not been turned off, just to prepare dinner for the governor, so in less than a moment, the food and wine were served like water. Liu Ziguang held the chicken drumstick in one hand and the elbow in the other, and started to eat in large pieces. Shi Kefa
He personally took the jug and poured wine for him. After pouring a few glasses of wine, Shi Kefa asked cautiously: "What are the plans of the Duke?"
Liu Ziguang said: "The two traitors, Wei Zhongxian and Huang Zongxi, were insidious and cunning. They deceived the emperor with their sweet words and plotted against me, causing my family to be ruined and my wife to be separated. This debt must be paid no matter what."
Shi Kefa said: "Does the Duke want to gather his old troops, fly the flag of the Qing Dynasty and rush to Nanjing to kill his enemies and restore his reputation and status?"
Liu Ziguang just gnawed on the pickled elbow in his hand and muttered: "That's the plan."
Shi Kefa's eyes became sharp: "Have you ever thought, Lord, that if this happens, the world will be in chaos? The Ming Dynasty and Zhongxing have finally started, and overnight they will be back to the past, even worse than before! Yes, now
The garrison in Gansu and Shanxi has raised the flag to avenge you. They are just waiting for someone to climb up and send troops southward with a cry. The military morale in Hebei, Shaanxi, and Henan is also extremely unstable. There are signs of mutiny among the students in the military armament schools in each province.
Not to mention Shandong, as long as the Duke gives the order, countless people will definitely follow you."
Liu Ziguang's mouth was full of wine and his cheeks were full of meat. As he ate, he said: "Well, that's the truth. Let's continue."
"The Duke of the country has the support of the people, an army, and famous divisions. Once he sends troops to clear the emperor's side, he will definitely wipe out Nanjing in less than two years. He will kill the traitors with his own hands and take revenge with pleasure. However, these two years will be enough to turn the prosperous and prosperous land of Jiangnan into a
Scorched earth, if the Duke of Guo has soldiers and money, the court may not have soldiers and men. The Duke of Guo is used to leading soldiers, and he also knows that the armament of the Ming army is far from just using spears and bows as it was a few years ago.
Artillery, muskets, armored chariots, both sides had such sharp weapons. Those who fought and killed were all the people of the Ming Dynasty. They consumed the people's money and food, not only killed each other, but also made it easier for the Manchu and Xixia countries, which were eager for thieves to die.
Barbarians, the Ming Dynasty will inevitably fall apart and the people will be displaced. Have you ever thought about this, Lord?"
Liu Ziguang stopped chewing and looked at Shi Kefa thoughtfully with his eyes. Shi Kefa said earnestly: "Yes, the Duke of the country has been wronged and wronged, but for the sake of his own grudges, he will kill millions of people."
Is it too selfish for the people to tie themselves to chariots?"
Liu Ziguang asked in reply: "In the opinion of Master Shi, how should Liu handle this situation?"
"Follow me back to the capital, meet with the emperor and explain the matter clearly! With Mr. Qian Ge, with Hou Shangshu, and with us Donglin Party members, we will definitely restore the innocence of the Duke! If the emperor is stubborn and unrepentant, Xian Zhi is willing
Crash and die in front of Lord Dan!"
Shi Kefa's resounding words made Liu Ziguang couldn't help but laugh. Qian Qianyi has always regarded me as a thorn in his side. Liu Rushi's matter cannot be covered by paper, and the secret will be revealed sooner or later. Lao Qian also helped me restore my innocence.
, he is good if he doesn’t add insult to injury, and there is that old boy Hou Xun, who talks about benevolence, justice and morality, but is full of male thieves and female prostitutes. Because of his son’s castration, he wants to peel off my skin and eat my flesh. There is no one in the Donglin Party.
Good thing, counting on them is just a dream.
However, Liu Ziguang did not say it directly because he knew that it would be difficult for an idealist like Shi Kefa to persuade education with words. Only facts could make him change his mind.
When Shi Kefa saw that Liu Ziguang was silent, he thought he was tempted, and continued to persuade him with sincerity: "The Duke of the country has a kind heart and loves the people like a son. All these are seen by the constitution. There is a student movement in the capital, and all the people are filial. Jinan Prefecture also
So, your tablet is hidden in every house of the common people. Today, the Holy Ming will not take the voices of all the people at heart. As long as the Duke of the country goes to Beijing to plead guilty and investigate the unfounded charges, I think the best thing can be done.
You are accused of manslaughter of an imperial relative, and you will be fine after being imprisoned in the sky prison for a few years. You can exchange the sacrifice of one person for the peace of the world and the prosperity of the country. This is the true hero who will be remembered throughout the ages."
Liu Ziguang put down the elbow in his hand, wiped the grease nozzle with his sleeve, stood up and walked to the window, then walked back two steps with his hands behind his back, suddenly sighed and said to Shi Kefa: "Xianzhi, you are too yang, too
Simple, politics is not that simple."
Although Shi Kefa couldn't understand Liu Ziguang's English dialect, he could see a trace of contempt and a trace of ridicule in his eyes. Guessing that his persuasion just now was misleading, he gently put down the wine bottle and said leisurely: "So
Say, the Duke of the country still insists on going his own way and wants to start a rebellion?"
Liu Ziguang snorted and was noncommittal.
Shi Kefa said: "In that case, don't blame Xianzhi for not remembering the old love. For the sake of the people of the world, even if I risk my life, I will kidnap you to the capital."
Liu Ziguang said: "It's just you? Can you keep me?" After saying that, he walked toward the door. Suddenly his feet gave way and he sat on the ground. He raised his head and looked at Shi Kefa in disbelief and asked: "You actually poisoned me?"
Shi Kefa said: "I'm sorry, I have to do this. Someone is here! Lock up the prisoner!"
As soon as he finished speaking, four big men jumped out of the door and tied up Liu Ziguang with iron chains. Unfortunately, Liu Ziguang didn't have any strength in his body, so he had no choice but to capture him.
After Liu Ziguang was taken away, Shi Kefa was still frightened and said to Shi Jun: "I was already prepared to die, but I didn't expect this medicine to be effective. I'm really lucky."
Shi Jundao: "Even steel and iron bones can't stop the most ruthless Ten Muscles and Cartilage San in the world. What's more, we drank so much in the wine that even a cow was knocked down."
Shi Kefa said: "How is Zhang Daniu doing?"
Shi Jundao: "Back to my lord, the younger one ambushed his house and captured him while he was about to return home. Now the city defense camp is under your control."
Shi Kefa nodded with satisfaction: "That's very good. You and your brothers must work harder tonight. Firstly, you must keep a close eye on Liu Ziguang, and secondly, you must strictly prevent anyone from causing trouble. As long as you hold on until the imperial envoy comes, it will be a great achievement for you."
Shi Jun said: "Uncle, don't worry. My nephew will do his best to keep the prisoner in jail. But after this incident, my nephew wants to resign and go home."
"Why is this? Do you think what your uncle did is wrong?" Shi Kefa asked in surprise. Only then did he notice a hint of melancholy in the brows of his pacesetter, his nephew Shi Jun.
"My nephew has never read and doesn't understand the truth. Storytellers and singers all say that Duke Zhen Guo is a great loyal minister and a great hero.
But the uncle wants to take him. The nephew was brought out by the uncle, so naturally he has to obey his orders, but I can't figure it out..."
Shi Kefa didn't expect that even his nephew would be attracted to Liu Ziguang, but now what he could say was that he could only show his loyalty as a courtier.
Early the next morning, the imperial envoy from the capital arrived at Jinan Prefecture. Shi Kefa led the civil and military officials to greet him, and brought the imperial envoy Sun Qichao into the governor's yamen. The incense table had already been set up, and Shi Kefa knelt down behind his round collar, and waited for the imperial envoy to read out the imperial edict.
.
Sun Qichao unfolded the imperial edict and read aloud: "By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict... Check the history of the governor of Shandong for corruption and perversion of the law. He was the leader of the Ming Dynasty who rebelled against Liu Ziguang's party. He buried it deeply and did not reveal it. His intentions can be punished. Fortunately, the deeds were exposed.
There is a mountain of evidence of the crime. I am now dismissed from the post of governor of Shandong. I will immediately take him to the capital with the Imperial Secret Service, and hand him over to Dali Temple for torture and conviction. I hereby..."
After hearing the imperial edict, Shi Kefa trembled all over, but he still said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I accept the edict and thank you for your kindness." After saying that, he took off the black gauze on his head and gave it to his hand.
The fan behind Sun Qichao unceremoniously took Shi Kefa's black gauze hat, and then flicked the chain to put it on his head. At this time, Shi Jun shouted: "Stop! Mr. Shi is unjust. The traitor Liu Ziguang has been arrested."
