I Am a Corrupt Official, But They Say I Am a Loyal Minister!

Chapter 173 I read Chunqiu, I am not a casual person!

The Imperial Palace of the Capital City, the Golden Palace, is in the middle of the early dynasties.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Wei Chen has been ordered to take charge of solving the horse bandit issue! It has been more than half a month, and a total of 4,282 bandits have been suppressed. No horse bandit can be found in northern Hebei and the surrounding areas, and there will be no more horse bandits. Please look into it clearly. !"

The chief of the six gates reported the situation of the bandit suppression.

The queen heard it and was very happy.

Uncle Huang, can you still eat after losing so many soldiers and horses?

I really want to see your face now!

Must be beautiful!

Ha ha!

"Guo Aiqing, this is a good job! You will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver, 1 night pearl, and 10 longan pearls! In addition, everyone who participates in this matter will be rewarded with 1 tael!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!" The chief catcher of the Six Gates was very happy.

This credit and reward is almost free.

Because they didn't pay anything, they didn't risk their lives, they didn't shed blood and sweat, and they were mainly responsible for the inspection and payment, so they got the credit.

Thank you so much, Master Jijiu!

Guo Zhaotou suddenly found out that it was too promising to follow Master Jijiu!

He met two masters before, and he and his brothers were ready to sacrifice themselves. But the other party went out and easily moved the battlefield outside the capital. Not only did he not sacrifice, but he also made a fortune from it.

Afterwards, the other party also informed him about the hijacking of the ship during the military exercise, so that he could get the credit.

Plus this credit for now...

Lord Jijiu is simply his lucky star!

It seems that we will need to move around more in the future!

"There is another person who is more worthy of a reward!"

The empress looked at Lin Beifan with a smile: "If it wasn't for Lin Aiqing's brilliant plan, our court would not have solved the problem of the horse bandits so easily! Lin Aiqing, you have contributed greatly!"

23 "It is within the ministers' duty to share the worries of His Majesty!" Lin Beifan exclaimed.

"I know that you don't lack anything now, so I won't reward you with anything! I will remember this merit for the time being, and I will make a contribution later and award it together!" The Empress said loudly.

Lin Beifan knew that the Empress had accumulated credit for him again, and when he accumulated enough, he would be promoted to one level!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Beifan responded.

"Your Majesty, in the process of suppressing bandits, ten bandit-suppressing heroes emerged, and each of them killed at least two hundred bandits! It is because of them that our bandit-suppressing activities have been so smooth! Ask them to post their good names and spread the word to the world!" Guo Putou continued to report.

"Guo Aiqing, this is a good job!" The Empress nodded.

"One of them killed 514 horse bandits and became a hero of the bandit suppression! However, this person's identity is very special, and the conditions he raised are also very special. I dare not decide, and I have come to report to Your Majesty!"

The Empress was in a good mood: "Who is that hero, what are the conditions, why are you undecided?"

"Your Majesty, this person claims to be the Bull Demon King, but his original identity is a Daniel. He is the culprit who led 30,000 soldiers to defect before, and is currently a wanted criminal on the run of the court!"

The court was in an uproar!

Unexpectedly, the hero of the bandit suppression is actually a wanted criminal on the run!

And it's not an ordinary wanted criminal, but a person who killed a court official and defected with some 30,000 soldiers!

"And the condition put forward by this person is to cancel the wanted on him and forgive him for all his sins! Since this matter is of great importance, Wei Chen dare not make a decision, and report it to the sage!"

The queen's eyes became serious: "Aiqings, what are your thoughts? Just tell me!"

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible!"

The Minister of War, Li Kaiguang, stood up: "This person killed an official of the imperial court and committed treason, which almost brought irreparable losses to the imperial court. The crime is extremely heinous, and the crime cannot be forgiven! If he agrees to his request and forgives his sins, what is the law of the imperial court? What is the majesty of the imperial court? Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

"Please think twice, Your Majesty!" Several other officials stood up and said in unison.

"Li Aiqing, what do you think should be done?" the Empress asked.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen believes that we should take this opportunity to arrest him and bring him to justice!" Li Kaiguang said loudly.

He lowered his head, and his eyes flashed a stern look.

It was this person who made him inexplicably carry a black pot on his back. It was this person who caused him to be raided by Lin Beifan and made him work hard to return to poverty overnight.

The hatred is too great, he must kill that person to relieve the hatred in his heart!

At this time, Lin Beifan stood up: "Your Majesty, this minister thinks that this method is inappropriate for Mr. Li!"

"What's wrong?" the Queen asked.

"Our court promised that to become a great hero of bandit suppression, we can put a not excessive condition to the court! If we disregard our promise and put the other party in jail, wouldn't we be laughed at by the world? At that time, the majesty and credibility of our court will be the same. No! Please think twice, Your Majesty!" Lin Beifan exclaimed.

"Lin Jijiu, he is wanted by the court, and he is also a treason! If we let him go so easily, what should others do? Can you afford the consequences?" Li Kaiguang said angrily.

Lin Beifan smiled: "Lord Li, this is serious! Others have to follow suit? Then you have to have this ability first. Can an ordinary soldier be able to kill a general? If he can kill all of them, it means that the general is a sack of wine. , no matter what!"

"You!" Li Kaiguang glared angrily.

"As for others, will they follow the example of treason?"

Lin Beifan smiled softly: "If they eat well, live well, receive military pay every month, and the generals treat them well, who would be willing to treason? risk?"

"So, what Mr. Li said actually doesn't make much sense!"

The Minister of War, Li Kaiguang, was speechless when he was refuted, so he could only change his angle.

"But where is the court's law? After all, he committed the crime of treason, and he is a wanted criminal of the court. How can he be so easily forgiven? Yes, he has indeed made meritorious deeds, but his merits are not worth it!"

"It's true that the merit is not worth it, but it can be granted extrajudicially!"

Lin Beifan bowed: "Your Majesty, whether to arrest, release, or do other things, we must consider it comprehensively, analyze the pros and cons, and then make the decision that is most beneficial to the court!"

"The first is to arrest! In this way, our court has indeed solved a potential harm, but the prestige of our court will also be gone! It seems that the harm outweighs the benefit!"

"Then let's go! Although we have preserved our reputation, it does damage our law! Moreover, since this person is outside and is not restricted, I am afraid that everyone is not at ease. It is still more harmful than beneficial!"

"So Wei Chen has a third method, recruit security!"

"Zhao'an?" The Empress thought thoughtfully, "Aiqing, go on!"

"Recruiting security, there are many benefits!"

Lin Beifan said with a smile: "In the first place, the reputation and prestige of the imperial court can be preserved, and the emperor's grace can be displayed, so that more people choose to serve the imperial court and serve the imperial court!"

"Secondly, after recruiting that person in, it is equivalent to doing things under our noses. We can keep an eye on him and avoid doing things that endanger the court. In this way, everyone can feel more at ease!"

"Three times, that person's ability to overwhelm the crowd and become a great hero of bandit suppression must have something to do with others. This kind of talent need not be a pity! We can let him continue to serve the court and continue to bring crimes and merits! When the credit is enough, , and then completely forgive his sins, so as not to damage the law of the court!"

"Your Majesty, do you think so?"

"Aiqing's actions are very heart-warming!" Empress Longyan Dayue said, "Just do it! But, who will take care of this person?"

"Your Majesty, leave it to Wei Chen!" Liu Sengmen Guo Zhaotou stood up and said with a smile: "This person is not only good at kung fu, but also good at tracking in the mountains and discovering enemy traces in time. I Liu Sengmen just need this kind of thing. Talent!"

"Okay, leave it to Guo Aiqing!"

So, this matter is settled.

As a wanted criminal by the court, this hero of bandit suppression has committed an unforgivable crime that cannot be easily forgiven.

However, the court was extraordinarily generous and did what it said, and no longer wanted to be wanted. But you must enter the six doors, accept the supervision of the imperial court, continue to serve the imperial court, and make meritorious deeds.

It can be said that this treatment method is very appropriate, and it takes up all the face, so people can't pick out any faults!

Da Niu, the great hero of bandit suppression, was very happy when he found out.

Although his sins were not completely forgiven, he was considered a free body. He no longer had to cover his face when he walked on the road, he no longer had to be afraid of being caught by others, and he could go to see his brother in an open and honest manner.

Although you need to enter six doors, accept the supervision of the court, and serve the court.

But looking at it from another direction, this is also considered a public meal. Many people who want to enter the six doors do not have this way.

As long as you don't make any mistakes, you can go on peacefully in this life.

So, he followed the master of Six Gates, came to the Six Gates of the capital, and met Guo Zhaotou.

"Caomin... subordinate Daniel, meet Mr. Guo!"

Guo Zhai looked up and down the Daniel, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, you are a talent! I heard that you are very good at tracking, and many horse bandits hiding in the wilderness have been found by you. Our six doors are just right. We need people like you!"

"Do it well! As for your sin, don't take it to heart! When your credit is enough, this official will ask the Holy Master to completely forgive your sins!"

"Yes, my lord!" Da Niu said with great joy.

"However, you are so courageous! The imperial court wanted you everywhere, but you dared to come to kill the bandits, and you dared to put forward such conditions to the imperial court. It's too impulsive! You know, your life is almost lost!" The catcher is not angry.

Daniel was shocked: "Then why..."

"Isn't it because of the Jijiu-sama?" Guo Zhaotou smiled and said, "If it wasn't for the Jijiu-jiu to help you fight for your reasons in the courtroom and help you speak good words, you would be dead already! After all, what you committed was treason. Ah, it almost caused the imperial court to suffer heavy losses, the country was in turmoil, and it would be good if you didn't take your head off!"

"Master Jijiu..." Daniel's eyes were complicated, and his mood was also very complicated.

He remembered the boy he saw two months ago!

It was him who took action, quickly resolved the rebels, and let him live, which left a deep impression on him!

Unexpectedly, it was him again who saved his life in the courtroom!

The two met by chance, without any kindness or resentment, why are they so kind to him?

Daniel handed over his hands and said, "Master Guo, my subordinates want to ask you for a leave of absence to thank Master Jijiu, please grant your permission!"

"This matter should be, you go! Say hello to Master Jijiu for me!"

So, Daniel bought some valuable gifts and went to the Lin Mansion to thank Lin Beifan.

And solemnly stated that if there is a need to inform him, he will go all out to repay the life-saving grace.
