Chapter 022 Multi-party Game
Five days later, Lin Zimo received an official document and a private letter from Han Yong's confidant. In the official document, his leader must ask about Liu Hu, and in the private letter, his teacher naturally wants to care about his daughter Han Caiyi. Lin Zimo knew very early that there are no impervious walls in the world, so what he did in Xunzhou Prefecture has long been passed on to the provincial capital for him by people with ulterior motives. The interest groups led by Fang Shiren and the interest groups led by Han Yong are not only nit-for-tat, but also quarrel with each other. The interest groups of both sides and the officials of their respective leaders in Beijing went up.
Lin Zimo was the first to kill Liu Tiger. At first, Han Yong said that he did not know about it, so the first reaction of the other party was to protect his child, cut off his wings, and then achieve the purpose of "dominance" Guangxi alone. Fang Shiren, who can't sit back and wait for death, will swallow this breath and definitely force Han Yong to give himself an explanation.
Although Liu Hu is a pawn in his eyes, his doorman was killed for no reason, but he didn't give him face, hit him in the face, and didn't put him in his eyes. If you don't stand up firmly, I'm afraid that no one will want to follow him or even work for him in the future. He firmly believed that Lin Zimo would be so bold without Han Yong's instruction. Therefore, Fang Shiren pointed everything at Han Yong and believed that the other party was the mastermind behind the whole thing.
Lin Zimo, who finished reading two letters, was reprimanded by Han Yong, but he was not angry at all and was particularly proud. After all, his goal had been achieved and he successfully pulled his teacher into the water. I thought to myself that the more you fight, the less pressure you will be. He was very good, not only did not vent his anger on the messenger, but also rewarded him with ten taels of silver.
Although Lin Zimo thought of one aspect, successfully succeeded and achieved the expected goal, he ignored one aspect. Officials at his level have long been surrounded by fans from the East and West factories, staring at them secretly. Their every move will attract their attention. Lin Zimo made such a big movement in Guiping City that it must not be covered up. The fan who sorted out the good news has already been sent to Beijing with 400 miles through his own channels.
Zhu Jianshen, an emperor who can redress the injustice of Yu Qianping and repay his grievances with virtue through the change of seizing the door, sat on his dragon ** while looking at the memorials flying up like snowflakes, and had already read the news reported by the eagles and dogs. His first reaction was that Guangxi was not only not peaceful outside, but also began to fight internally.
Years of experience told Zhu Jianshen that Lin Zimo's removal of Liu Tiger was just a fuse or a reason for their fight. The real purpose of my group of ministers is to take revenge and even get rid of their opponents quickly. He clearly realized that the governor of Xunzhou had done nothing wrong, but just got angry.
Zhu Jianshen deeply understands that in chaotic places, it is necessary to use heavy scriptures, as well as skilled, courageous and courageous talents. He still felt unhappy about Lin Zi's method of silently acquitting the perpetrator. In order to calm down the court as soon as possible, he had to give an explanation to all parties and not forget to give a warning to the governor of Xunzhou, so he made a muddy Zhu criticism. After all, the most important thing in his mind was to calm down the chaos, so that Guangxi would restore peace.
Zhu Jianshen did not intend to let Lin Zimo take the blame and made a decision to punish him for one year's salary and verbal reprimand, while Zhao Wenxuan was fined for half a year. After all, he had the identity of "an accomplice". As the supreme ruler, he still has full authority to deal with matters related to Liu Tiger. After all, he can see that this person is doing practical things for the court.
The reply of the "big boss" will be sent out soon. When the Han and Fang factions learned the news, they began to speculise. Some people will think that this is a warning to Lin Zimo, and the next time they commit it again, I'm afraid it will be punished by pretending to be an official and killing the head. Some people think that the emperor's tolerance for Lin Zimo may be a kind of shelter and acquiesce to his behavior. Whether it belongs to the former or the latter, justice or injustice are given a result.
A few days later, Lin Zimo, who was in Guiping City, learned the final result. Since I have not been demoted, it is the best result. He didn't live on that little salary, so he willingly admitted it. As for Zhu Jianshen sent people to scold him, he was in his left ear and out in his right ear, and he had never heard it.
Liu Tiger's case has basically been understood. Although it is inevitable that there will be excessive punishment during the trial, it is completely inevitable. After all, this matter is not a top priority, and Lin Zimo wants to use his main energy on the military. He asked Wang Pengfei to bring a lot of people back to Pingnan City. Seeing that they are so dedicated, I can't help but give them some "bonus". After getting the white flowers and silver, they all shouted happily to leave, while Lin Pingzhi took his family and appointment documents and went with them.
Zhao Wenxuan, who was fined for half a year's salary, didn't pay attention to it at all, so he came to the government to find his brother-in-law and asked how to thoroughly understand the case of Liu Tiger. He was no longer worried. He sat in Lin Zimo's office drinking tea while waiting for instructions. After all, there were still three or 400 people in his barracks that needed to be finally dealt with.
Lin Zimo, sitting in a circle chair, said a lot of unnutritious words after thinking about it: "Those who should be imprisoned will go to prison, those who should be exiled, and those who should be killed will be killed. As for the personal belongings committed by the relevant people, they should all be raided, inventoryed, and then reported. We will take the people and horses to carefully investigate Liu Hu's property.
Zhao Wenxuan, who sat on the chair and didn't get up, slowly put down the tea cup and asked, "Brother, don't you need to be so anxious?"
Lin Zimo, who had already got up from the circle chair, smiled and said, " Hurry up, I'm still in a hurry to get rich."
Zhao Wenxuan, who had no more nonsense, hurriedly got up and left the government office with Lin Zimo and went straight to the barracks. They ordered 200 people and rushed to Liu Hu's entire industry in Guiping City again. Although it has been shut down, sealed up, and the confidant of the two brothers led people to guard it, it did not reduce the idea of Lin Zi's eagerness to investigate.
At the first stop, he has chosen Liu Hu's mansion, and the main purpose is to find out the books and letters from relevant officials. As for silver money, antiques, calligraphy and painting, etc., I really put myself in second place. Lin Zimo believes that with that something, he can clearly know which people in the government office have accepted the benefits of Liu Tiger, and which people are his eyes and insider.
They tore open the seal on the door and broke in directly. Except for some people guarding the periphery, the rest of them carried out a carpet raid on Liu Hu's house step by step. Lin Zimo, sitting on a chair in the outer courtyard, repeatedly urged his subordinates to search for what he needed, and Zhao Wenxuan personally took military documents to count and register the inspected objects.
In fact, the accounts, letters and other important things between Liu Hu and some officials, big accounts, 367 and other figures have long fallen into the hands of Fanzi. As for how they get it, it is an unknown secret. After all, people who eat this bowl of rice are very professional in finding important things. Fans at all levels who dare not check directly were directly reported to their emperor's master Zhu Jianshen, otherwise Lin Zimo would not be so easy to get out, light hair and trust.
Lin Zimo, who felt that his buttocks were sitting with a little pain, walked to Zhao Wenxuan and saw that they were all their brothers' confidants and said bluntly, "Wenxuan, do you have anything you like? If there is, just take it. It doesn't have to be so troublesome to register.
After supervising and inspecting Zhao Wenxuan for a while, he really didn't see a thing that entered his own eyes, so he wondered, "It's strange. According to common sense, Liu Tiger's family should always have something strange as a treasure of the town, but I really didn't see a slightly better one. The large and small objects detected here are not only ordinary things, but also the total amount converted into silver is not large.
Lin Zimo knew that Liu Hu was old and rough. He didn't like calligraphy, painting, porcelain and so on. He must be his favorite things or yellow and white things, land deeds, house deeds and other most direct external objects. Without being in a hurry, he boldly guessed: "Don't worry, take your time. There will definitely not be much elegant things, and there should be a lot of silver and other things.
Zhao Wenxuan shook his head and told what he thought in his heart: "Not necessarily, Liu Tiger is just a pawn arranged by someone in Guiping City. His main role is to collect money and bribe people's hearts for the people behind the scenes, and then hand over the extra money that has not been spent. In fact, I'm afraid there won't be too many things in his hand.
What he said really reminded Lin Zimo. He immediately remembered that Liu Tiger not only sent him 5,000 taels of gold, which was equivalent to 50,000 taels of silver, but also sent him the head of others. Lin Zimo realized that Liu Hu was likely to collect a lot of money, and the money spent would not be few, so that the accumulated money would not be much. Liu Hu's life is indispensable*, otherwise he would not have been allowed to do anything wrong in Guiping City.
