Ming politicians

Chapter 178 It's a pity I'm not afraid

() When they came to the lobby, the two fell to their knees, looking very aggrieved. Su Tiancheng took a closer look and found that there were bloodstains on the corners of their mouths, obviously they had been beaten.

"My lord, my subordinates are incompetent and failed to summon Zhou Shunqing."

"Well, did you not show Zhou Shunqing the county government's subpoena?"

"No, no, my lord, Zhou Shunqing has already returned to the mansion. His subordinates went to Zhou Shunqing's mansion to deliver the summons, but they were beaten up by the guards of the mansion, and the summons were also torn up by them."

Su Tiancheng blinked his eyes, he saw the two kneeling yamen servants, they looked a little timid, obviously they had something to say and it was hard to say it.

"If you have anything to say, just say it, I think, Zhou Shunqing's nursing home will never do it when they see you."

"The subordinates dare not say."

"Tell you to speak quickly, don't be long-winded."

"Zhou Shunqing's nursing home said that they don't know any magistrates. They also said that they don't know the heights of heaven and earth. They probably want to blackmail their master."

Su Tiancheng had a smile on his face.

"You have to be responsible for what you say, and there can't be a single lie. Otherwise, even though you have worked hard, if the official finds out, I won't let you go."

"Every sentence of my subordinates is true, and there is absolutely no nonsense. In front of the adults, the subordinates dare not speak nonsense. The subordinates show the county government's subpoena. The words are good, and Lord Zhou Shunqing is invited to the county government to cooperate with the investigation. The nursing home of the Zhou family immediately took the summons and tore it into pieces. The subordinates reasoned with them, but who knew that both of them were beaten by them. They said while beating the dog to see the owner. If you don’t remind me, you won’t know the rules..."

Su Tiancheng's complexion changed a little, and his smile disappeared. Zhou Shunqing did too much, and he was looking for death.It seems that he still doesn't know his character. When he just arrived in Jiangning County, he directly attacked Kuang Siming, and Ma Jiashou was also cleared out by himself. Zhou Shunqing thought that he was the ambassador of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites and an official of the imperial court. .Guozijian Jiansheng, relying on Zhou Yanru's relationship, is lawless and acts recklessly, but he doesn't care.

Su Tiancheng was not reckless.In the imperial court, Wen Tiren was trying every means to deal with Zhou Yanru.Zhou Yanru was already in a bit of a panic. If he said that he had dealt with Zhou Shunqing, Zhou Yanru would not have the energy to deal with him, and he would not even have time to deal with impeachment.

This is the benefit of being familiar with the history. If you can't grasp these situations, a sixth-rank magistrate of Gyeonggi dares to challenge the chief minister of the cabinet, it is almost the same as courting death.

"What you two said just now has been recorded. Take a look and see if there is any problem. If there is no problem, sign it immediately."

After watching the two yamen servants sign and pledge, Su Tiancheng looked cold and spoke slowly.

"Liu Dianshi, please go to the Inspection Department and ask Sun Inspection to come to the lobby of the county government."

In the lobby, the air was almost frozen. Everyone understood what Su Tiancheng meant when he said this. It seemed that another event that would cause a sensation in Jiangning County was about to happen.

Lu Tianming was in a hurry, and hurriedly gave Su Tiancheng a wink. He thought, it's better to discuss such a matter. It's best to come forward and invite Zhou Shunqing to the lobby. Both sides will look good. Besides, Zhou Shunqing After all, those who work in the Ministry of Rites are officials of the imperial court. Such a big fight might cause big trouble.

Seeing that Liu Zhongji was about to leave the lobby, Lu Tianming couldn't help but speak.

"My lord, there is a reason for the incident. I will go down to the officials and invite Lord Zhou to the hall of the county government."

"Lord Lu, there's no need, there's no need to humiliate yourself. Since Zhou Shunqing is so arrogant, and his guard is so tough, I want to see if there is still kingly law in his eyes."

A quarter of an hour later, Sun Yuankun came to the lobby of the county government office.

"Sun Xunjian, this is a subpoena from the county government. You lead a thousand soldiers to summon Zhou Shunqing and come to the lobby of the county government. Remember, Zhou Shunqing's guards are robbing civilian girls. You must find this girl and bring them together." Bring it to the county government hall, if Zhou Shunqing's guardian dares to resist, it will be regarded as treason and he will be killed without mercy."

Lu Tianming's body began to tremble slightly, and he couldn't help closing his eyes. It seemed that today would not end well. The sergeants of the inspection department were dispatched, and they didn't know what kind of trouble it caused. Zhou Shunqing's nursing home, arrogant and habitual Yes, if you really resist, the sword is ruthless, and death is inevitable.

When Sun Yuankun led a thousand soldiers from the inspection department to Zhou Shunqing's mansion on horseback, Jiangning County was already a sensation.

No one thought that the county magistrate dared to do this, who is Zhou Shunqing, not to mention Jiangning County, even Yingtian Mansion, he would not dare to offend at will, and he is still a supervisor of the Imperial College, an official ordered by the court.

After Zou Pingzhang heard the news from the yamen servant, his words changed again. He didn't like Su Tiancheng, so of course he couldn't say good things.

"This is Mr. Su too. It's too reckless to do so. Who is Zhou Shunqing? He made such a big move and wanted to save his own face. I'm afraid the result will be even worse."

Huang Tingping and Yi Ligao nodded in agreement, thinking that what Zou Pingzhang said was reasonable, that Su Tiancheng was still young, and thought that he would be taken aback when he arrived in Jiangning County and did a few big things. .

Liu Yunqing finally couldn't bear it anymore. At this time, he felt why he became the head of the four sons of Donglin, why he got mixed up with Huang Tingping, Yi Ligao, and Zou Pingzhang. Over the years, apart from empty talk, No wonder Su Tiancheng ridiculed them for what useful things they did.

"That's enough, don't talk about it, I feel ashamed. Earlier you said that Mr. Su dare not pluck the hair on the tiger's mouth, but now you are sneering and sarcastic, thinking that Mr. Su can't act as an agent for government affairs, and he doesn't know the ways of the world, but you don't know that Mr. Su has outstanding literary talents. , The second place in the palace examination, knowledge is not something you and I can compare with. After arriving in Jiangning County, you have done so many big things, and it is not something that you and I can compare. What qualifications do you have to comment? You will know what you have done. I don't want to hear your discussions anymore, and from now on, I solemnly announce that I dare not take the reputation of the fourth son of Donglin, and you will be the third son of Donglin from now on."

After saying this, Liu Yunqing walked away, leaving the three of them standing there dumbfounded.

Some people around heard it and discussed it softly. What Liu Yunqing said was indeed reasonable. In these years, there are too many scholars who talk empty words, and their words are all pointing, as if any big thing is in their hands. As soon as it is mentioned, it can be solved by talking and laughing, but it is a pity that there is no chance to do things, and the empty talk will continue forever.

Zhou Shunqing was caught off guard.

He hadn't moved the girl he had snatched. After all, it was broad daylight. Things like this would have to wait until night to have some interest. He heard that the girl's parents had gone to the Jiangning county government office. He didn't care at all. Jiang Ning What is the county.

Although it is said that Su Tiancheng came to Jiangning County and did some great things, such as cleaning up the officials of the county government, confiscating Kuang Siming's mansion, and frightening the salt merchants in Jiangning County, but most of these people are ordinary people, grassroots, His identity was different, and his background was so tough, how could Su Tiancheng dare to act rashly, unless he didn't want to do it in Jiangning County.

The relationship between Zhou Shunqing and Tang Haitai is still good. The two have similar interests. They often eat and drink together, and even directly talk about the quality of women, when they are the most gentle and when they are the most sexual.

Tang Haitai often slandered Su Tiancheng with bad words, which made Zhou Shunqing feel the same way.

Let’s just say that today Su Tiancheng sent a subpoena and wanted to go to the county government to confront him. Zhou Shunqing was very upset. At this time, he was with Tang Haitai. After the nursing home came in to report, he was very angry. His cynicism made him even more uncomfortable, and he secretly instructed the nursing home to clean up the government servants in Jiangning County.

It must be inappropriate to not give Su Tiancheng face by doing this, but Zhou Shunqing doesn't care, what can you, Su Tiancheng, do to me, if you really dare to touch me, your black hat will be dropped.

When the sergeants of the Jiangning County Inspection Department surrounded the mansion, Zhou Shunqing felt that something was wrong. Unfortunately, at this time, Tang Haitai had already gone home.

When the nurse came in to report, his face turned pale, and he said that the sergeant of the inspection department, fully armed, summoned the master to the county government, and if he dared to resist, he would be punished for treason.

Zhou Shunqing didn't have much talent, and the Imperial College students donated it, so the buns with dog meat couldn't sit at the formal table, and when they encountered such a big event, they were at a loss, and didn't know what to do.

When Sun Yuankun broke in, the nursing home of the mansion hadn't received instructions from his master, thinking that the master was the same as before, unwilling to be disturbed, and there was a nursing home who would come in without knowing it, so he went up and reprimanded Sun Yuankun, saying that Sun Yuankun was bold and arrogant. Unexpectedly, Sun Yuankun didn't care about this at all when he ran into the mansion.

The rest of the guards, seeing the sergeant behind Sun Yuankun, stretched their bows and set their arrows, and dared not move. If Sun Xunjian gave an order, they would all be shot into hedgehogs.

The housekeeper looked unremarkable, with a steel knife on his neck, and tremblingly led the sergeant of the inspection department to the backyard where the girl was detained. As for Sun Yuankun, he went directly to the wing room and found Zhou Shunqing, but he hadn't waited for it yet. When Zhou Shunqing opened his mouth, the sergeant behind rushed forward and tied him up.

The guards who robbed the girls in the temple, including the servants around Zhou Shunqing, were all found out and tied up.

When he was escorted away, Zhou Shunqing did not forget that he gave the housekeeper a wink, which meant that he should quickly find a way to clear up the relationship. If it was too late, something serious would happen. (To be continued. Welcome to the starting point to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets,
