Return to the Qing Dynasty(33)

There is a saying that when a tree falls, the macaques scatter, and there is another saying that when a wall falls, everyone pushes against it.

Longkodo's situation at this time was almost like this. All the people he had been friends with in the past were gone. Those who relied on him to flatter him immediately found another supporter. When talking about Longkodo, they all showed bitter faces and wished they could all

They have all become victims of oppression and exploitation but dare not speak out.

But this is also human nature, people have to think about themselves first.

This can't be blamed on others, Longkodo thought as he leaned against the wall of the cell with great understanding.

But no matter how generous I was, I still felt resentful in my heart. I thought, don’t let me take this breath, otherwise we will settle the debt slowly. At that time, it will be useless to kneel down to beg for mercy and call the ancestors.

I thought about it, hated it, and started to worry again.

worry about what?

I'm worried about my son Yuzhu, and I'm worried about Yuzhu's mother's fourth son.

How can the mother and son cope without themselves? Let alone the fourth son, even if he comes out, he will have to suffer some physical pain. But after all, this physical pain is only temporary. The real worry is what to do in the future? What if I can

Going out, it’s easy to say anything, even if you are demoted to common people, you can still protect these two women with your own ability. But I’m afraid... What if something happens, what will these two women do? Si'er...

...There are so many people who hate her. Not to mention the outside world, the Tong family itself cannot spare her. This child Yuzhu... is the Tong family after all, and the family cannot ignore it. He is a little lucky at this moment.

The child is not like himself or Si'er. He has always been kind to others and has never made enemies with anyone. I hope these people who have deceived him can protect him for the sake of his sincerity.

Points... thinking about it, my eye circles are red and my nose is sore. I didn't expect that Mr. Tong would be like this.

"Third Master!" Just as he was thinking, the cell door was knocked, and the prison began to distribute meals.

The conditions in the prison were not bad. There was a bed, a table, and a chair. The bedding on the bed was neat, and there was a bucket under the bed. Someone came to clean it that day. Before entering, the shoes and socks you were wearing had to be changed into the clothes prepared in the prison.

This piece of clothing is nothing else. It only needs to be worn on the upper body. It does not require a long belt to wear on the lower body. The trousers are not long. It is said to prevent prisoners from hanging. In short, even if you don’t want to die, you don’t want to die.

The kind that cannot die.

In the past, the people in this prison were not treated as human beings, and they were bullied no matter what. Now these prison bosses don't dare to do it, for fear that someone who can't stand it will be hit to death. If they die, they will be implicated.

.

The prison bosses complained before that they could still get some money and water from this, but now that the emperor has issued an order, no one dares to commit crimes. But it is also good, because the emperor followed up with another order. In a yamen like theirs

The lowest-level errands used to be described as "low-level people", but the emperor said that they recognized their status. Now they look at those officials and receive monthly salaries from the country. But in the same way, after receiving the salary, they must keep it.

Rules. They can understand this! If you give me more money, you will be guaranteed. The key is to go out and gain respect from others.

Therefore, in order to keep their jobs, everyone works harder than the other when working.

"Third Master!" The cell leader showed great respect to Longkodo, "It's time to eat."

Longkodo stood up and really wanted to thank the emperor for this imperial edict that was not understood by many people at that time. Otherwise, he would not have been treated like he is now.

The prison head handed in a dish, rice and soup, "You can use it slowly. I'll collect the bowls later."

Longkodo took the relatively clean meal and laughed: "I know you are locking up all nameless people here, but don't worry, I won't seek death. Don't be so careful!"

The prison chief smiled apologetically and did not dare to speak, and slowly retreated.

There is a saying that Mr. Tong is really right. This place does not care for unknown people. For example, Mr. Ma Qi now, he must be prominent. He was once detained here. But what happened next? The senior official left.

Return a high-ranking official, and pay back a generous salary when you deserve it. You said that if you had made all kinds of difficulties for this person and that person, and waited for him to leave, you would really have no idea how he died.

With this lesson in mind, all the people working here are on alert. Those who are showing signs of going out don’t dare to offend them, and they serve them as if they were serving an uncle. They don’t dare to be vague at all. Those who don’t show signs of going out will have their own time.

You can't see their heads at all, they are beheading them and ransacking their homes right in front of you, they are just waiting for the verdict. If you fish these people out as hard as you can, this shop will be gone after you pass this village. Of course, this was in the past, first of all, this is true.

Don't dare! It's the one who can't get out. In the past, he was a high-ranking official, and people were very particular about whether a person should be killed or not humiliated. What if a person who doesn't like what he wants wants to die? He's going to ruin his job.

This Mr. Tong Sanye is locked up here. He can’t get out. Some say he will definitely not be able to get out. He came in on the first day of the Lunar New Year. He must be really angry because of the action from above! Some say that’s okay.

Not necessarily, after all, the relationship between the Tong family and the royal family is very close. The emperor's grandmother is the daughter of the Tong family, and the emperor's adoptive mother is also the daughter of the Tong family. With such a strong relationship, how could it cost someone's life? Since it can't be done.

Life, even if they are demoted to common people, they are still descendants of the Tong family. Killing these little minions is just like playing. Each one has his own opinion and has his own reasons.

Anyway, no matter what happens in the end, the prison boss should still do his job well. As for the future, it is true that if you can't take advantage, don't lose your job.

The colleague secretly took a sip of wine and asked when the cell leader came out, "Are you really serving me like a master?"

Dare you not?

Seeing his colleague carefully stuffing the flask over, he quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm really not good at this." As mentioned above, don't drink when you're on the job, and don't drink when you're on the job. People say what you do, don't ask for credit, at least you won't make mistakes.

.

My colleagues were not surprised, and knew that he was an honest man. He put away the wine bottle, and immediately leaned over and whispered: "I'm telling you, we brothers can still make a profit by taking advantage of this opportunity."

The prison boss quickly waved his hand, "Brother, I still have parents, brothers and children to support at home. I really don't dare to make any mistakes." This job can save a family of more than ten people from starving to death. How dare you be careless?

His colleagues stared at him with a look of hatred, "If you do this, you will be miserable! A horse will not grow fat without night grass, and a person will not be rich without windfall. You should understand this truth." The more he talked about it, the more he said.

The voice got lower and lower, "Don't just stare at this three-acre land all day long, you should also listen more to what's going on outside. It's very lively outside now. You don't know, right? The third master Tong you are serving now

..." He laughed and said, "That's really a betrayal!"

The cell leader was surprised. He really didn't know about this. "What's wrong?" That's not how things are done!

"His son accused him of allowing his concubines to abuse his wife, causing her to be tortured to death."

"My brothers accused him of being disobedient, and his parents were angry to death because he over-indulged in his concubine's discipline and refused to listen..."

"My concubine accused him of failing to fulfill his duty of support and allowing his concubines to oppress them..."

"My sister-in-law accused him of allowing his concubines to disrespect family rules and etiquette, and using his concubines to suppress his direct descendants..."

Lin Yutong read the zhezi one by one and told the general content to the fourth master who closed his eyes and meditated, "It's really overwhelming and everyone is pushing against it..." He picked up a large pile of zhezi in his hand, which were all sent by the Tong family.

She frowned, "But it's not all nonsense. Longkodo has nothing to say about how kind he is to this Li Si'er..." Just like what Longkodo's brothers, wives and others wrote in the petition, in Longkodo

At my father's funeral, "the funeral was as usual", the person who greeted the internal affairs officials sent by the emperor to handle the funeral was not Longcordo's wife, but her concubine Si'er. They are not stupid, how can they not understand?

What did Longkodo mean by this move? Obviously, he did it deliberately! For what purpose? It was to show and highlight the status of the fourth son. At that time, the fourth son regarded himself as his wife and fulfilled the obligation of "son-in-law"

.

Thinking of this, she frowned and took out a folding book. "This is a bit interesting..." After saying that, she handed it directly to the fourth master.

Fourth Master took it and took a look at it. It turned out that it was related to the previous corruption case in Jiangnan.

Wu Cunli's case is still under investigation, but from what Li Xu proactively revealed and combined with the verified evidence, it can basically be confirmed that Wu Cunli continued to pay attention to the dignitaries in the court from the Kangxi period to the first year of Yongzheng for the sake of his own career.

VIPs and others bribed a total of 226 people, up to more than 443,000 taels. Among them were Orundai, Aling'a, Sunu and his son, etc. In addition, Wei Zhu, the eunuch beside the emperor,

As well as the eunuch He Yuzhu and others around Master Jiu are also among them. It can be said that from the ministers and officials of various ministries, to the third master, eighth master, ninth master, tenth master, twelfth master, sixteenth master and other princes of the late emperor.

Wu Cunli took care of all the eunuch's family members. Long Keduo accepted Wu Cunli's gift of twelve thousand taels of silver to work for him. This man said it in great detail in the brochure, saying that it was all Si'er's idea. Si'er was

What happened next, what Longkodo said, how Longkodo reacted, etc., are just like listening under the window of two people. According to this person's statement, Longkodo can be regarded as "listening"

His command does not violate the color.

Fourth Master pulled out the last signature of the booklet, "...Kuadai! It turns out it's him..."

This man must be very dissatisfied with Longko to have people stare at him like this day and night.

However, it can be seen from this that it is not unreasonable for Long Keduo to secretly plot against Li Si'er. In terms of boldness and cunning, Long Keduo is a bit better than Long Keduo.

What Lin Yutong was holding in his hand were some reports on Li Si'er's dealings with Ba Fujin. In addition, there were also some reports on the eunuchs around Master Jiu... If the Fourth Master couldn't tolerate the Eighth Master and the Nine Masters, just these two reports

Reporting is enough to cost Longkodo his life. What are you trying to do by flirting with Fourth Master's political enemy?

"How to deal with it?" She put down the fold and asked the fourth master. Speaking of it, there is no way to deal with someone like Longkodo. Li Si'er deserves to be cut to pieces. But if you really follow your heart, you will not care about the country.

Where is the law?

The fourth master glanced at Lin Yutong, but there was no sign of her unwillingness. He smiled and pointed at the discounts, "This is simple to say the least. Calculate how much money Long Ke Duoluo embezzled on these discounts. Follow this.

This amount is enough for the Tong family to get money from!"

Where can the Tong family get such a huge sum?! Who owns the money? Longkodo is afraid that he doesn’t know everything, but Li Si’er, who holds 80% to 90% of it. The Tong family

Without money, it is unrealistic to go to Longkodo. The only one they can find is Li Si'er who is still in prison. For the Tong family, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. If they want to go in and out of the prison privately to meet a prisoner, it is simply impossible.

Make trouble.

As for how the Tong family will treat Li Si'er, this is indeed worth looking forward to.

So this person is bad.

"Not everything has to be done by yourself." Fourth Master said to Lin Yutong.

But it’s more fun to do it yourself!

After Kuadai received the notice from the Yamen, he almost went crazy. They said nicely that the Tong family's family name should not be tarnished, so he stopped coming.

What's the meaning?

Doesn't that mean we won't come and search your house, you will make up the money yourself, and you will be kicked down if you do this.

Is this a good thing?

The young and old men of the whole clan gathered together and said that this was a good thing. The Tong family had committed the crime of killing the nine clans, and the whole clan was not implicated. As long as all the illegal gains were turned over, what would be considered lenient?

Fold it in, that's a good thing.
To be continued...
