Another World Da Ming: I use a hundred lives to become holy

……

"Sir, Li Dong has already explained everything. He is very sure that the batch of stones was given to him by Manager Liu of the Imperial Manor."

"And the reason why he took the risk of taking only a little oil and water to wade into this muddy water is because at that time, Manager Liu showed a dragon-shaped jade token that was priceless at first glance."

"He also said that he cannot mess with the people behind him and must be obedient. Otherwise, he will compile a list of the things he has committed over the years and put him in prison."

The Jinyiwei under Erhu were efficient. Before Zhao Zheng's carriage arrived at Huangzhuang, he had already interrogated Li Dong thoroughly, and he quickly chased after him and delivered a confession.

"In the seven years since I was appointed to the Anyang Mansion, I have embezzled more than [-] taels of ink in total..."

Zhao Zheng only read the first item in the confession about the crimes Li Dong had committed over the years, and lost all interest in Li Dong.

A total of more than [-] taels were embezzled in seven years, which on average is not enough to complete a four-digit figure in a year.

Should I praise him for actually being a good official, or should I praise him for having a thief's heart but not having the courage to do so?

But it doesn't matter to Li Dong now. He has exceeded the red line of ten times his salary stipulated in the newly compiled "Law of the Sun and Moon", and he can no longer escape the death penalty.

Tu Jie felt sad after receiving Li Dong's confession.

If you want to keep oil and water in your hands without catching fire, you must first not let the pits covered by the oil and water emerge on the table.

In the past seven years, Li Dong had not even thought about filling the previous hole, and he was actually caught by a small steward of the Imperial Manor.

It's not like Tu Jie, who has already understood the highest state of getting rid of fat and putting oil and water in his pocket without leaving any trace.

Is there less oil and water scraped off by him?Quite a few!

Even today, Tu Jie himself cannot count how many there are.

But has one thing happened?No.

Even if Jin Yiwei were asked to go to his home and search any place where he might hide treasures or any treasures, he would never be able to find anything illegal.

The point is not to leave any traces.

The highest state of searching for oil and water is like freedom.

True freedom is not about doing whatever you want, but not doing anything when you don't want to do anything.

The same goes for real oil and water.

You can have it when you want to use it, but when you don't want to use it, you will only be left with lean meat.

Otherwise, if he is covered in oil and water and has a big belly, if something happens to him, he will be like this Li Dong, unable to run even if he wants to.

"Master Tu, it seems that you are somewhat emotional about Li Dong's confession."

In the carriage, there was nothing to do. Zhao Zheng saw him looking at a page of confession without turning the page for a long time, so he made fun of him.

"The lower official is just angry that Li Dong, who is obviously the governor of our Sun-Moon Dynasty and comes from a poor family, has done so many sinful things against Dao Tian!"

"Please also punish Mr. Zhao. I have worked with this guy for so long before I went to the official position, but I didn't find anything wrong with him!"

"Hahaha, Lord Tu is indeed a minister of the imperial court!"

If he hadn't known what kind of person Tu Jie was, Zhao Zheng would have almost believed him.

It would be more interesting to deal with such old acquaintances.

……

"My lord, the whip has been found!"

"Mr. Zhao, Huangzhuang has finally arrived. Let's... Hey! Mr. Zhao!"

Just when the carriage of Zhao Zheng and his party arrived at the Imperial Mansion in Anyang Mansion, the imperial guards who had gone out to look for a whip finally gave Zhao Zheng a whip.

Tu Jie got out of the car after following him and was about to knock on the door.

But I never thought that Zhao Zheng would hold the whip and push the village door open in a daze, without any appearance of saving any face for the imperial village.

You must know that there is a street outside the imperial village, and there are many pedestrians.

What's even worse is that there is an outgoing shop at the side entrance of Huangzhuang. The business is very prosperous, with many people coming in and out.

Tu Jie was afraid that Zhao Zheng had gone too far, so he could only quickly follow Zhao Zheng's footsteps.

And 'begged' several Jin Yiwei to evacuate the crowd.

"Generals, I beg you to evacuate the crowd first so as not to have a bad influence on Mr. Zhao."

The few Jinyi guards under Erhu who were responsible for staying behind to guard the gate looked at each other in shock when they heard this.

Why is this civil servant I met today so polite to them?

In the past, when civil servants saw eagle dogs like them, if they didn't snort or glance sideways, they could be regarded as thinking highly of them.

What did they hear today?They heard a word begging!

These Jin Yiwei under Erhu didn't know that all this was because of the tears Tu Jie shed in the Northwest.

……

"Who are you!"

Snapped!

"Censor of the Inspectorate! Zhao Mansion Zhao [-]!"

In the Imperial Mansion, someone tried to stop Zhao Zheng, but Zhao Zheng whipped him away.

Of course, Zhao Zheng also left his name openly and without any concealment.

This person originally wanted to curse when he heard the word "Inspectorate".

What happened to the Inspectorate?The Inspectorate oversees the world, not including the royal family.

But when he heard that the Inspectorate was followed by the Zhao family, he knew that the matter was serious, so he hurriedly endured the pain and ran inside to find the steward.

"Manager Liu! Manager Liu! Someone from the Zhao Mansion is here!"

Zhao Zheng just followed him without having to look around.

Along the way, the ignorant Huangzhuang guards saw Zhao Zheng with an unfamiliar face and holding a whip, trying to stop him.

Then he was directly held down by Jin Yiwei, and he obediently went to squat in the courtyard in front of the mansion with his hands tied.

At this time, Manager Liu of Anyang Imperial Village was still drinking tea in his small courtyard, calculating the accounts silently in his mind.

"It's not good! It's not good! Master Steward!"

"Why are you so panicked! Didn't you see that I am enjoying tea!"

Manager Liu was about to calculate the last number silently, but the person who came was so flustered that he forgot all about it.

It made him furious instantly.

But when the person came closer and he noticed the blood stains on the person's face, he became serious.

The people in Huangzhuang have blood on their faces!

It’s not good to shout!

There is only one possibility!

Someone rebelled and came to rob the Imperial Manor!

But who dares to rebel now? This is a prosperous time when we have food to eat and clothes to wear!

"You must be Manager Liu."

"Tell me, whose jade charm you threatened Li Dong before belongs to."

The men were still panting, but a third person's voice appeared in the small courtyard.

Manager Liu quickly turned his head to look.

Ordinary official uniforms, ordinary people.

How did he break in with just a whip in his hand?

"Who are you? Do you know that this is the Imperial Manor? Even if you have some skills, I advise you to surrender as soon as possible, otherwise your nine clans will not be protected!"

Manager Liu started to show his authority, but not long after he got up, he was interrupted by his subordinate who had taken a breath.

"Sir...sir, this is the inspector of the Holy Mansion!"
