C3568 Good at self-control

"If Eunuch does not accept this silver …" That... "Then I will kneel here and not enter the sect …" After saying that, Li Tuo was about to kneel down.

Li Lianying liked such good officials who hurriedly reached out to support him. "Aiyo …" Lord Li, aren't you cooking me up? You're really ashamed of me, you're really ashamed of me … "Alright, I won't be polite with you …"

"I finally understand. If you, Sir Li, don't raise the official position and make a fortune, then you're the one without justice!"

Speaking of which, Li Tuo bowed deeply, "My good Chief Steward, this official really has something that I need your help with … This official only hopes that I don't get promoted, and that the Chief Steward can say some good words in front of the empress dowager.

"Ah?" "Why is that?" Li Lianying really could not understand, the price of 20,000 silver was actually not being promoted? There must be something wrong with this person's head!

Li Tuo looked around and saw no outsider feigning pain as he said, "Manager Li, speak your mind! This official has never been a courageous person, otherwise, I would not have discovered Salonga's actions of stealing from him long ago! "

"Last night's search for the family has made this official's heart turn cold … That's also the home of the Zhong Ming and Ding food, saying that the wealth is comparable to the Jia Residence in Grand View Garden! "

"What happened in the end? Only forty thousand gold left after being defeated by a prodigal son. In the end, everything will be ruined and everyone will die! "

"This official is truly afraid. You said that although this person wants wealth and honor in this life, he also wants peace?" This official has guarded Zhang Jing's position very well. If I can hold on to my position, this will be my only blessing! "

"Heading up, I really can't take it anymore!"

A smart man, really a smart man! Li Lianying's heart was beating up to his big brother. They were all official figures, how could they not hear the hidden lines in his words?

Li Lianying knew that what Li Tuo had said was only half true and half false. Rather than saying that she was timid, it would be more accurate to say that this person could hide herself.

He had done it! Once the rewards were done, it would be over! It would be better not to reward them, as they would always leave behind that little bit of loss and regret in the hearts of those in a position of power.

If the empress dowager had thought about it carefully, she might have been unable to reward Li Tuo with some of the credit back then. If the empress dowager had such thoughts, then the future benefits Li Tuo would receive would be far greater than what she would receive right now!

Placing a long line to catch a big fish? A smart person, this was a smart person who knew how to do business and eat interest!

"Lord Li is a wise man, so I won't say too much. I can't guarantee that I'll succeed for you …" But I won't let you do it badly either! "

"Ouch …" Thank you Chief Steward, thank you Chief Steward! "

A perfect bribe was done at the corner of the wall, after which a group of people quickly walked into the Heart Nurturing Gate and saw the fighting bird empress dowager Ci Xi.

After Li Tuo kowtowed to him, Ci Xi was in a great mood to give him a seat, "Li Tuo! His errands were quite good. After a night's work, he managed to resolve the case. The gold was also returned, and he was caught … Even the public opinion in the capital has been reversed.

"The empress dowager is too kind …" This official is only careful to obey the Empress Dowager's imperial edict! Without Old Buddha's advice, I don't even have the ability to do so … "

While they were talking, Li Tuo picked up the interesting details of how he searched and captured Salonga's house last night and told it to Ci Xi. There were some interesting points, such as when Salonga hid in the elephant nose pit, and also where Little Huang Ying and Salonga went through all of that shameless stuff in detail.

He said it like he was listening to a evaluation, it made Ci Xi's mood improve!

"Aiyo, poor thing …" This Mu Zhanga is also a Dao Guang old man in front of him, how can his descendant be so unfilial, and cause his huge family property to be ruined like this? "

"Right …" Didn't you guys say that Salonga smoked cigarettes, gambled, and ruined his family? "How can he bid twenty thousand silver taels?"

Li Tuo smiled and said, "The empress dowager is enlightened! The ancient saying is that the worm of a hundred feet is dead but it is not stiff. Master Mu Zhanga is, after all, a member of the Dao Light Dynasty, and his roots are deep enough to be reckoned with. "

"For a large clan like this, not only are their properties made from gold and silver, they also need land, real estate, loans, rent, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings …" "With all the wealth gathered together, this is what it looks like!"

"Oh right, there's still a servant …" "This person is also an important asset, even if there are more servants, it would still be money …"

"No matter how rich Salonga is, he can't just smash the red wood window and exchange it for money! He couldn't leave none of the furnishings in the pavilion … You can't possibly sell all your bedding, right? "

"To put it more clearly, we cannot touch Madam Salonga's dowry, it was given to his by his mother's wife, could it be that Salonga also pawned it?"

With that said, Ci Xi understood and sighed: "Whose daughter is this? Even my parents' dowry was taken away, what a sin! "

When Li Tuo saw that there was a door behind his words, he immediately smiled and said, "Ah, the empress dowager is wise! The entire case is already cleared up, but Salonga did not have any evil intentions … "

"It has nothing to do with those women … I hope that the Old Buddha will be magnanimous and spare the lives of this family's women! "

Salonga's case could be considered big or small, stealing the golden seal of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the Forbidden City, calling it greedy and shameless would be considered interesting … Why don't you steal the rest of it?

Don't you know how deep the blood feud between the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Great Qing is? If this case was to be blown up, it would become a big political case. Then, it was possible for the entire family to execute it, at the very least, the entire family would have to send Ningguta as a slave.

Ci Xi left her beloved eighth brother behind and sat back down on the soft chair. His long fingernails gently tapped on the teacup and Li Lianying quickly changed a cup of hot tea.

Ci Xi was also thinking, carefully considering the balance of the situation, whether it was strict or not, it would affect the outcome of the battle!

"Li Lianying, ah... How's the news outside the palace today? "

"Reporting to the empress dowager … The entire city is discussing about Salonga's case, it seems like Old Buddha is right! "

"Ai …" Today can be considered a peaceful day, but in the future, who knows how many days peace and quiet will come? "

Can you reverse a day's work for a year? This was what Ci Xi was worried about, of course Li Tuo could understand it.

Li Tuo knew clearly that what Ci Xi was hesitating about was not the number of lives he had lost, rather, it was the number of lives Empress Dowager Xi had lost, it was just like an ant, she wanted the stability of the court, wanted the control of public opinion.

Right now, they only needed to deal with a big case and make the case bigger. Only then would they be able to divert the attention of the common people more effectively!

Would it be ineffective if the case was too small?

Li Tuo carefully replied, "Empress Dowager …" Can you screen left or right... "Oh, of course Manager Li will stay. This official still has one more thing to report. I expect the empress dowager will be in a much better mood after hearing this!"
