Chapter 68: The terrifying genius
No one said anything more.
The soldiers were very afraid of the fierce Yongying next to them, and the official was also worried about his life, but Master Wang had his own thoughts in his heart.
Li Wensheng is here.
As the head of the palace, even if he was in such a state of irritation, he would still be carried here in a sedan chair by the guards.
Of course, they were also accompanied by a group of sergeants he borrowed from General Cao Minglei. The leaders happened to be Liu Zhi and Liu Dezhi whom he met in front of the treasury.
Liu Zhi also recognized Li Yi, but did not say anything. This matter is too complicated, and it would not be a good thing to get involved rashly.
The officers and soldiers stopped a mile away, and only a group of sergeants escorted the Fu Zun's sedan over.
Master Wang and the official quickly went to pick up the prince from the sedan chair.
Li Yi waved his hand, signaling Zhang Mingde to retreat with Yongying.
No one wants chaos at this time.
This time Fu Zun changed into casual clothes. Seeing that his clothes were a little messy, I'm afraid he didn't have time to tidy them up.
When he came over, he saw Li Yi with a gloomy face and ignored him.
When Li Wensheng saw this mud-legged man facing him so angrily, it was almost an insult to him.
His family was poor since he was a child. Now he has been promoted and made a fortune, but he still has a low self-esteem and hates people who look down on him.
At that moment, I cursed in my heart, thinking that this mud-legged guy doesn't know how to lift, but he is acting like a big shot, showing off his authority in front of him!"
He said to Master Wang: "How is the matter?"
Master Wang was also in a mess. He glanced at Li Yi and said, "We discussed it in detail. He just didn't read enough, was too rude, and offended the officials in the treasury. To say he is guilty, it is true, but he robbed the government.
It’s hard to say that Ku’s serious crimes are serious.”
He walked up to Li Yi and was about to scold others, but after thinking about it, he pretended to be guilty and said, "I haven't explained it to the Lord yet."
When it reaches this point, there is a result.
Li Yi said coldly: "What's there to say? The corrupt official was justified in depriving us of our rewards. We, Anxin, were already poor. We still drink porridge and eat wild vegetables, but the official just opened his mouth and
He asked me to give him all the reward as an apology. If I give him the reward, we people in Anxin will starve to death."
Master Wang and Li Wensheng were both stunned. They seemed a little reluctant when they heard what they were saying.
Li Wensheng was half a foot ashamed and asked: "So someone has falsely accused you?"
"It's just a false accusation. If Mr. Wang hadn't stopped that corrupt official, I would have taught him a lesson." Li Yi shouted loudly, with an angry look, but he was completely different from the deep one just now.
Is this obviously a common man?
Li Wensheng despised this kind of person the most. He glanced at Mr. Wang and blamed him for not being able to deal with a little country boy for so long.
Master Wang looked aggrieved, which was clearly not what Li Yi looked like just now.
Everyone present, except Mr. Wang, thought that Li Yi was just a brave man who could not get on the stage. They thought that what happened in the treasury was that Li Yi was being exploited by the officials. In a moment of anger, they took action, took away the rewards and left.
But the officials were furious and went to the governor to file a complaint.
This official also had a dark heart. He was going to be beheaded for being guilty of robbing the treasury. He was obviously trying to kill Li Yi.
Master Wang looked at everyone's expressions and didn't understand what they were thinking. Looking at Li Yi's honest and honest look, he felt a cold current that was about to freeze his internal organs.
Just because it's high, Li Yi's move is too high.
Li Yi's actions meant that the governor would take the blame. If he was smart and had the government, the governor would definitely hold a grudge and wait for an opportunity to retaliate.
But now Li Yi pretended to be a bold and rough warrior, showing that he did not intend to plot against the prince.
In this way, the governor's resentment towards Li Yi is not that deep, and he will not be wary of him. This is just a performance, but it can have such a great effect, but Li Yi's wit is too
More than a monster.
Li Wensheng has been immersed in reading for decades, but he doesn't seek deep understanding and is dull, so how can he be aware of the depth inside.
He thought he knew what was going on and knew all about the bad habits of the government. When he saw Li Yi's honest and honest look, he looked like an idiot and didn't understand the human affairs involved, so he felt relieved.
For now, as long as Li Yi is appeased, and then used to make the refugees return to Anxin, stop making trouble, provoke a civil unrest, and make himself lose his official position, then everything will not be so serious.
"Okay, this matter is already known to me. You are also at fault in this matter. Go back to the government office and summon all the officials involved. You can identify them one by one. I will investigate clearly and I will interrogate and judge.
Give you a clean slate."
Go back to the government office? When you get to the city, it is the world of officials. Once things change, even nine lives are not enough to die. This matter has not been settled, how can Li Yi go to the government office.
At this moment, bursts of noise came from nowhere, and became louder and louder. For a moment, it was like a flood, which made the three of them stop talking.
Soon, a soldier came on horseback, dismounted, and said, "I'll tell you, sir. The people of Anxin are flocking here one after another for some unknown reason."
The palace master was immediately shocked and asked quickly: "How many people are there?"
The soldier replied: "Ju Xiaoren estimates that there should be about three thousand. Moreover, they are all wearing weapons and losing control of their emotions. It seems that they are coming with bad intentions. Moreover, there are strange movements among the Yong camp troops."
Li Wensheng was shocked. Three thousand refugees gathered together, which was a precursor to a civil uprising. If Li Yi climbed up and raised his voice again, he might become a bandit in an instant, and his career would be ruined by then.
Thinking of this, he didn't care about anything else and quickly said to the soldiers: "Why don't you quickly lead the troops to suppress them and let the sergeants drive the people back home."
The soldier looked troubled and bent down and said: "I'm reporting to you, sir. We have less than five hundred men capable of fighting. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to deal with it. For the sake of the safety of the governor, it's better to retreat quickly and go to Anzhou County."
Hearing that the soldiers he had brought were not enough to suppress the civil uprising, Li Wensheng felt his world spin and his vision went dark.
It's over, don't think about taking refuge in the new king, even this little prefect has done it.
Just when Li Wensheng was despairing, Li Yi suddenly said: "Master, I can dissuade the villagers and let them return home."
As soon as Li Yi spoke, Li Wensheng remembered that the instigator of all this was beside him. The only one who could control the Anxin Civil War was him.
Immediately he said: "Okay, okay, Master Li is indeed a loyal and righteous man. Please let the people of Anxin return quickly, and don't provoke a civil uprising and cause a big disaster."
Seeing Li Wensheng's panic, Li Yi shook his head secretly, wondering how such a person could get the position of Palace Master.
Nodding in agreement, he mounted his horse and waved to summon Zhang Mingde's cavalry company.
When Li Wensheng saw the cavalry company coming towards here, he quietly pushed into the entourage array, fearing that something might happen.
After explaining, Zhang Mingde rode on horseback to find the old patriarch and others to convey Li Yi's words.
After just a cup of tea, soldiers reported that the mob had stopped advancing, but they did not go back, but waited where they were.
Only then did Li Wensheng know what Li Yi's prestige was in Anxin, and he couldn't help but feel shocked.
"Master, the folks in Anxin are in unstable mood. If I go with you to the government office, there is no guarantee that they won't cause trouble. Why not, I'd better stay here temporarily to appease the people." Li Yi said quickly.
