Good morning Daming

Chapter 1081 Xu Jie is crazy, Dou Jialan wants to die

In the Ministry of Revenue, Lu Song was cursing Jiang Qingzhi.

"He only talked half-heartedly, saying that conquering Japan would bring great benefits, which would surely make me agree with him wholeheartedly. But he refused to explain the reason after I asked him, which made him even more proud. He will withhold money and food later."

The trusted clerk laughed and said, "Shangshu, Chang Wei Bo has no subordinates for us to deduct money and grain from."

Lu Song was startled. "Yes, that's not right. Zhilu that guy..."

"You mean the one with the surname Zhang? I think his name is Zhang Juzheng."

Lu Song was about to get angry, but he remembered Jiang Qingzhi's confident words: "The benefits of conquering Japan will make you, Lu, laugh out loud in your dreams."

"That guy is hateful, but he keeps his word. Is there anything in Japan that can make me laugh in my sleep?"

Lu Song scratched his hair. His already sparse hairline gradually receded.

Jiang Qingzhi left the Ministry of Revenue and said to Xu Wei, "Lü Song will not be an obstacle."

This is the main road of the imperial city, with officials coming and going constantly.

Xu Wei said: "The Six Ministries, namely the Ministry of Rites, are not easy to deal with."

"Xu Jie is in trouble this time. He is good at forbearance, but he can't bear this matter anyway." Sun Bu Tong couldn't help but say, "I heard yesterday that Xu Jie wants to be irreconcilable with you, my Lord."

Jiang Qingzhi took out a cigarette and said, "I acted impartially. It was Your Majesty who leaked the matter. He didn't dare to confront Your Majesty, but yelled at me... Hey! Isn't that Xu Jie?"

This person is hard to describe, but once you describe him he will appear.

Xu Jie looked the same as usual, with a gentle expression, but his official robe seemed empty, as if there was only a skeleton underneath.

Taoist priest, you have committed a sin!

Jiang Qingzhi told the Taoist priest about Xu Jie's voluntary declaration of land and population. His original intention was to let the Taoist priest take advantage of the situation to control Xu Jie, but he did not expect that the Taoist priest would slap Xu Jie to death with a single slap.

For Xu Jie, there was no difference between disgrace and death.

"How dare this man stay in the capital?" Xu Wei sighed, "His face is thicker than the city wall."

Xu Jie also saw Jiang Qingzhi, and Jiang Qingzhi nodded slightly.

If I don't kill Boren, Boren will die because of me.

This was Jiang Qingzhi's mentality after seeing Xu Jie.

He thought Xu Jie would ignore him, but unexpectedly Xu Jie turned around and walked towards him.

Instantly, everyone stopped moving.

They all looked at the two of them.

Will there be a fight?

At least Xu Jie should spit in Jiang Qingzhi's face, right?

Lu Bing just appeared with a few of his men, and stopped when he saw this, his eyes dark.

The marriage with Xu Jie was something he had been planning for a long time, and it was also a golden road paved for the future of the Lu family.

The task was finally accomplished, but Xu Jie became a stinking dog shit and a rat crossing the street overnight.

Does Lu Bing regret it?
regret!
He was hesitating whether to go through with the marriage proposal.

In his opinion, Xu Jie would never have a chance to turn things around in his life.

In this case, the marriage becomes a waste of time, no, a burden.

Lu Bing was waiting for an opportunity to break off the engagement. What he most wanted to see was a fight between Xu Jie and Jiang Qingzhi.

Xu Jie, a rat crossing the street.

Jiang Qingzhi is at the peak of his career.

If the two of them started fighting, Jiang Qingzhi could slap Xu Jie to death. In this way, Lu Bing didn't need to say anything, and the marriage would naturally be cancelled.

Xu Jie walked over slowly and made a "Puh" sound. He lowered his head and looked at the spit on his official robe. He looked up but couldn't find the person who spat.

"Traitor!" someone shouted.

"Xu thief!"

Xu Jie took out a handkerchief, slowly wiped the sputum, and walked in front of Jiang Qingzhi.

What is Old Xu going to do?
Jiang Qingzhi was very curious.

Hands-on?

Jiang Qingzhi swore that he could teach Xu Jie a lesson on how to behave himself single-handedly.

Spitting?
Don't worry, if he dares, Jiang Qingzhi doesn't mind taking action.

So, what is he here for?
Xu Jie looked at him and slowly smiled.

"A trip south, Long Wilbur...well done!"

What the hell!

Old Xu!

Did he take the wrong medicine?
Jiang Qingzhi was dumbfounded.

If the officials around were wearing tortoise shells, they would have fallen to the ground by now.

How did Xu Jie fall from grace?
The Taoist priest told everyone about his voluntary declaration.

But who started this?

Jiang Qingzhi!
Xu Jie didn't dare to be cruel to the Taoist priest, so he could only vent all his hatred towards Jiang Qingzhi.

So, after Jiang Qingzhi returned to Beijing, many people were waiting to see the show.

Some people said that Xu Jie might choose to endure, which caused a round of ridicule.

Xu Jie's previous forbearance was waiting for the right opportunity. At that time, he was the spokesperson of Confucianism, and behind him was a huge and terrifying group of scholar-officials.

This is the real case of keeping a low profile.

After the incident, the literati abandoned Xu Jie without hesitation. Even though he tried several times later, no one paid any attention to him.

A traitor is always a traitor.

In other words, Xu Jie is completely useless.

In the Council of State, he faced suppression from Yan Song and his son, and had no power or opportunity to fight back.

In the Ministry of Rites, many people now pretend to obey his orders but actually disobey them.

Everyone knows that Xu Jie's good days are numbered. Just wait for the Taoist to send a signal, and countless people, including scholars and officials, will swarm in and bring him down.

Xu Jie was finished, and the Xu family of Huating was also finished.

In Huating, the Xu family went from being the number one wealthy family to the number one impoverished family. Now, people from the Xu family will be ridiculed when they go out to shop.

When the wall falls, everyone pushes it down. These scenes are really heartbreaking.

To be honest, with such a deep hatred, no one would be surprised even if Xu Jie took out a knife and stabbed Jiang Qingzhi today.

But Xu Jie actually gave him a warm greeting as if he were an old friend.

here you go!
After saying this, Xu Jie nodded with a smile, then left calmly.

Jiang Qingzhi's neck turned along with everyone else's...

The road ahead is long, and Xu Jie walks steadily.

It doesn't look like a mental illness!
Jiang Qingzhi covered his forehead and said, I don’t have a fever!
This is not an illusion!
Lu Song came out and asked, "What's going on?"

The doorman said, "Minister, Lord Xu is trying to show his good will to Chang Wei Bo!"

What?
Lu Song was also stunned, "Did he drink too much?"

Even if you are disgraced and have no future, you, Xu Jie, cannot drink during working hours.

And they were all drunk.

Jiang Qingzhi came back to his senses and asked Xu Wei: "Did you see it too?"

Xu Wei was numb, "Yes."

"Not crazy?"

"I'm watching from the sidelines, and it seems... not crazy."

"Then I am crazy!"

Jiang Qingzhi turned around and saw Lu Song, "Old Lu, pinch me."

Lu Song was overjoyed and stretched out his hand to pinch...

What the hell!

Jiang Qingzhi was pinched so hard that his soul almost left his body, "You pinched so hard?"

"I have been wanting to take action against you for a long time." Lu Song laughed, then looked sternly at the officials from the Ministry of Revenue who came out to watch the fun.

"Nothing to do?"

A group of officials went back reluctantly.

The news reached the Taoist priest of Yongshou Palace. He was still in a daze after waking up. After a long while, he said:
"This guy is quite interesting."

Huang Jin glanced at Taoist Master and found that his smile was very meaningful.

You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and people watching the scenery are watching you upstairs.

Jiang Qingzhi was still confused. Lu Bing, who was watching the show in the dark, stared at him with gloomy eyes.

A small flag of the Jinyiwei came quickly and whispered, "Commander, something has happened."

"What's the matter?" Lu Bing was still thinking about this matter.

"Does the commander still remember Dou Jialan?"

Lu Bing's eyebrows jumped. "Tell me about the matter." "She killed Sun Ying, Marquis of Dechang."

"what?"

"She killed Sun Ying, the Marquis of Dechang."

Lu Bing whispered, "Sun Ying... the one who runs the gambling house?"

"Yes."

There was a hint of reminiscence in Lu Bing's eyes. He took a deep breath and asked, "Where is she now?"

"Dou Jialan went to the Ministry of Justice to surrender himself."

"Go to the Ministry of Justice instead of Daxing and Wanping to surrender..." The figure of the cold female centurion emerged in Lu Bing's mind, and he slowly walked towards Jiang Qingzhi.

Jiang Qingzhi had just turned around, and the officials did the same, when they saw Lu Bing coming.

What's going on today?
Jiang Qingzhi felt that he had become a popular figure.

"Old Lu, is there something wrong?" Jiang Qingzhi asked calmly.

In terms of status and power, Jiang Qingzhi now far surpasses Lu Bing.

Lu Bing approached and whispered, "Dou Jialan just killed Sun Ying, Marquis of Dechang."

Sun Ying, Marquis of Dechang, isn’t that Dou Jialan’s creditor?
Jiang Qingzhi did not seem to care about Dou Jialan's affairs, but he had already figured out the matter thoroughly in private.

Sun Ying, Marquis of Dechang, owned the largest gambling house in the capital. At a time when gambling was banned, his gambling house was run openly, which showed that Sun Ying had great connections.

"Where is she?" Jiang Qingzhi asked.

"He went to the Ministry of Justice to turn himself in." Lu Bing's eyes were deep. "He just arrived at the Ministry of Justice."

"Isn't it Wanping and Daxing?" Jiang Qingzhi asked in surprise.

The capital was divided into two parts, one called Daxing and the other called Wanping. According to the central axis, whichever side had the problem would be under the jurisdiction of that side. Of course, there were many times when the powers overlapped, but then it would attract the other side's saliva.

You've really overstepped the line!
"Ok!"

Lu Bing looked at Jiang Qingzhi and sighed, "She doesn't want to live anymore."

If Dou Jialan went to Daxing and Wanping to surrender, Jiang Qingzhi would have much more room to maneuver.

But when the matter went to the Ministry of Justice, it became a big deal.

In full view of the public, how could Jiang Qingzhi act in favoritism... no, how could he interfere in this matter?

"Master!" Xu Wei said, "We should go to the Marquis of Dechang's mansion to investigate this matter first. The sooner the better!"

There was a hint of anxiety between Xu Wei's brows.

Sun Chonglou gnashed his teeth and said, "It must be that Sun Ying who irritated me. I'm going to kill this bastard!"

Sun Bu Tong saw that Jiang Qingzhi's face was livid, so he whispered to Sun Chonglou, "Shi Tou, stop making trouble."

Boll also advised: "Sun Ying is dead."

Only then did Sun Chonglou calm down.

"This matter..." Jiang Qingzhi's eyes turned, "Sun Bu Tong should go to the Marquis' Mansion to investigate."

"My people have already gone." Lu Bing said.

"I don't believe you!" Jiang Qingzhi said coldly.

Lu Bing shook his head and turned away.

Sun Bu Tong rushed out at a trot.

Boll said, "My Lord, I would like to go to the Ministry of Justice to inquire."

Jiang Qingzhi said: "The Ministry of Justice... well, you go there and tell the people in the Ministry of Justice if Dou Jialan has lost something or gained something..."

……

Ministry of Punishment.

Dou Jialan, with the front half of his body covered in blood, was brought into the lobby.

"Why are you surrendering yourself?" asked the official in the hall.

Here is the procedure.

"I killed someone."

"Who?"

"Dechang Hou Sunying."

Bah!
The guardrail fell down, and the official blinked his eyes, "You... a female centurion of the Imperial Guard?"

There was only one female centurion in the entire Ming Dynasty.

But not many people know about it.

The official looked confused.

"Yes."

"Name."

"Dou Jialan."

"Someone is coming."

"exist!"

"Detain him. Imprison him for the time being."

"Take orders."

Dou Jialan turned around woodenly.

When the clerks saw her beauty, they all laughed.

When I entered the cell where the Ministry of Justice was temporarily detaining people, I saw the jailer laughing.

The officials knew everything about what was going on, but most of the women who were allowed in had committed serious crimes and would either be put to death or become slaves, so who cared?
The jailers exchanged glances.

“This is good stuff.”

"Let's draw lots!"

"Alright."

"It's me who won, I deserve to be the first one to win!"

"Don't be so cruel, at least leave us brothers with something to think about."

"rest assured……"

The jailer who was chosen walked to the cell with a smile, "Hey! Raise your head."

Dou Jialan looked up.

"She is indeed a beauty."

The jailer opened the door of the cell with a key and walked in. "Take it off!"

There were hurried footsteps behind him and the jailer turned around.

Seeing that it was the prison boss, he smiled and said, "Boss Wang, how about you come first?"

Snapped!
The jailer slapped him so hard that his eyes were full of stars, and then beat him severely. Then he turned around and smiled apologetically, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on this matter."

A voice came from the darkness, "Master said, if she has anything wrong with her in prison... she will die!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

The jailer bowed and sent the man away, then came back, followed by several jailers. "Boss Wang, who is this woman?"

"Who is he? The man before was just a guard, brought here by Doctor Liu. Do you know what Doctor Liu's expression is? Respectful!"

Everyone was stunned. A jailer covered his forehead with his hand. "I... I remember that the only female centurion of the Jinyiwei in the capital... isn't that in Xin'an Lane?"

The jailers gasped and felt a little sympathy when they saw the jailer still lying dead on the side.

"It's Long Wilbur's people!"

"Ok!"

The prison boss said, "Keep an eye on her. If anything happens to her, I will die. Before I die, I will kill you first."

"Don't worry, Wangtou."

"Whoever dares to mess with her will be killed first!"

"That's Long Wilbur, who dares?"

"By the way, Boss Wang, this woman is covered in blood. What has she done wrong?"

The jailer sighed, "They said he killed someone."

"Killed?"

"Well! He's still a marquis."

What the hell!
