My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 1177
[Chapter 1141 What kind of blood book?]
Afterwards, Jing Zhe followed Prefect Xu back to his room.
After closing the door, Prefect Xu asked: “President Jing, what is the good thing you mentioned?”
As he spoke, Prefect Xu poured a cup of tea for Jing Zhe.
In fact, Prefect Xu was in a good mood. Although he was caught by Jing Zhe, the result was good for him.
Because the affair between him and Mrs. Feng was not revealed, he could still get a lot of money from Jing Zhe. As for whether the Feng family restaurant belonged to the Feng family or the Jing family, he didn’t care.
There was also Baldhead. Just because he had insulted him so much, Prefect Xu had already had murderous intentions. Jing Zhe couldn’t help but take action. In fact, he was helping him, so Prefect Xu was naturally happy.
Jing Zhe took a sip of tea and said with a smile: “Prefect Xu, you have collected a lot of incense money from Taohua Temple in these years, right?”
“…”
Prefect Xu was stunned and immediately realized that Master Kongjing had confessed, but then Then he thought again, was Jing Zhe trying to trick him by asking this?
So he smiled and said, “President Jing, it’s not easy to say this nonsense.”
“Rubber words?”
Jing Zhe took out the “blood letter” from his arms.
“Xu Taishou, please open your eyes and read this blood letter. This is written by Master Kongjing himself. If you don’t agree, we can confront you in person. However, if we confront you in person, everyone will know. In that case, Not only is Taishou Xu unable to save his official position, but his life may not be saved either!”
“…”
Taishou Xu was silent for a while, obviously analyzing.
At this time, Jing Zhe said again: “Prefect Xu has committed such a big thing. Even if he can avoid the death penalty, he can’t escape the crime of living! However, I did not choose to make it public. Instead, I told Prefect Xu privately that I didn’t think it was right. Is this a good thing? “
“…”
Governor Xu looked up and glanced at Jing Zhe. From his analysis, it seemed that he was helping him, which was indeed a good thing, but would Jing Zhe be so kind?
Prefect Xu didn’t quite believe it, but with the handle falling into Jing Zhe’s hands, he had no choice.
Then he took a closer look at the blood book. When he saw the amount of twenty thousand taels, he jumped up instantly.
“He’s talking nonsense, nonsense! How can it be twenty thousand taels?”
“How much does Prefect Xu think is appropriate?”
Hearing Jing Zhe’s words, Prefect Xu shuddered.
At this time, Jing Zhe continued: “There are red letters on the paper, and there are people testifying. Do you still want to quibble?” Xu Taishou
took a breath and prepared for the final struggle, so he said: “President Jing, you and I are both members of the imperial court.” Officials, when handling cases, officials pay attention to witnesses and physical evidence
.
Can you convict me with only witnesses? Does that mean that if I just find a few people to say bad things about President Jing, I can convict you?
If you accuse me, it won’t work. If I accuse you, there will be no problem.”
“…”
Governor Xu was angry and was about to say that Jing Zhe was bullying the younger – of course, this does not refer to age. But it refers to official positions.
But before he could say anything, Jing Zhe took out the Emperor’s Sword from his arms and slapped it on the table. Then he slapped the gold medal given to him by Emperor An on the table. After thinking about it for a while, he felt it was not enough, so he slapped it on the table. The Jinghong Cavalry token that Liu Jinghong gave him was also slapped on the table, and he said coldly: “Open your eyes and take a good look. I want to arrest you with these tokens in my hand, but I still need evidence? Now I have found someone to testify, just to give you face. Don’t be shameless!”
“…”
Xu Taishou broke into a cold sweat at that time. He looked at the Emperor’s Sword and the token on the table. I also remembered the rumors I heard before that Jing Zhe dared to kill people directly in Jingzhou. In addition, he had just killed a bald man in prison, which showed that his character was very violent and not as gentle as he seemed on the surface.
After thinking about it, I decided to admit that I was unlucky. It would be better not to offend him unless I had to. If he accidentally killed me, who would I talk to to reason with him?
He won’t be able to bounce around for a few days anyway!
Governor Xu comforted himself very much, and said, “President Jing, these two thousand taels… I admit it!”
“How can I be so smart earlier?”
Jing Zhe clapped his hands and said, “Besides, Kong Jing The master is a monk. If a monk doesn’t lie, how can he lie to others? He said twenty thousand taels is twenty thousand taels, so it’s not okay for Governor Xu to deny it!”
“…”
Governor Xu greeted the eighteenth generation of Master Kongjing’s ancestors in his heart.
“Besides, since I would choose to tell Prefect Xu privately, I just don’t want to bring this matter to the public. After all, as an official, who doesn’t know who you are? After three years of clearing the prefecture, one hundred thousand snowflakes and silver, Prefect Xu has only two Wanliang, where did he go? And in the final analysis, the only thing to blame is the old monk Kongjing. If he hadn’t collected the incense money, how could Prefect Xu have made such a mistake? “
“President Jing…he taught me a lesson. “
Prefect Xu nodded and continued to greet the eighteenth generation of Master Kongjing’s ancestors. At the same time, he was still thinking, what did Jing Zhe mean by saying this? He said that all officials in the world are so greedy. Does that mean he is also greedy? Is this a hint to myself?
“Prefect Xu, I don’t want much, just give me five thousand taels!”
Jing Zhe said when Prefect Xu was struggling.
“…”
Good guy, I really made myself guess!
At this time, Prefect Xu was ecstatic.
“Why, Governor Xu doesn’t agree?”
“Yes, yes!”
A problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.
“President Jing, wait a moment!”
Prefect Xu acted quickly. He went out for a while and came back with a few banknotes and handed them to Jing Zhe, totaling five thousand taels.
Seeing Jing Zhe put away the bank note with satisfaction, Prefect Xu said cautiously: “President Jing, since you accepted the bank note, do you want to give this blood letter to the lower official?”
Prefect Xu’s meaning was very clear, Jing Zhe took the money and gave him the blood letter, and the transaction between the two was completed.
Unexpectedly, Jing Zhe suddenly changed his face: “A blood letter? What blood letter? Why should I give you a blood letter?”
“???”
Xu Taishou was stunned for a moment, and then became furious.
“President Jing, you are so rude. I gave you five thousand taels of silver, and you still don’t give me a blood letter?”
Jing Zhe also smiled: “Prefect Xu, are you out of your mind? Are you embezzling? Even if you pay 20,000 taels for incense, you don’t have to report it to Your Majesty. I can sentence you to death now. I’ve already given you enough face by not killing you. You still want to use a mere 5,000 taels to buy a blood book of 20,000 taels? If you really want to get rid of the evidence in my hands, you have to give me at least 20,000 taels, right? Five thousand taels will buy a blood book, dream!”
“…”
At this time, Prefect Xu was trembling with anger. His hands and feet were cold, and he finally understood that Jing Zhe really had no good intentions!
In addition to greeting the eighteenth generation of Master Kongjing’s ancestors, Governor Xu now also greeted the eighteenth generation of Jingzhe’s ancestors.
