"Shouldn't such a note be passed down to his own son, which would be more in line with the world situation of this era?"
"Although I had cooperated with him before, he was wary, suspicious, and jealous of me, and his behavior was completely different. Shouldn't he be more dissatisfied with me?"
"Are you expecting more?"
With complicated emotions, Su Ziji lowered his eyes and looked at it without moving for a while.
After a while, someone passed by outside the temporary residence. The sound of voices woke up Su Ziji. Su Ziji put the stack of manuscripts to one side, stood up, took out a book, and turned out a folder. Inside, there was a list that had been prepared long ago.
There are dense records on it, all of the outrageous things Qi Hongxin did after meeting Qi Hongxin.
The older ones kill people, the younger ones insult and scold subordinates, act arrogantly and have no heart.
As for the misappropriation of provincial funds, these are also crimes that can be investigated. One investigation will be accurate.
In Su Ziji's eyes, these sentences represent knives that can be stabbed at Qi Hongxin, causing Qi Hongxin to see blood immediately, or even destroy the whole family.
"What should I do with him?" Looking at the list, Su Ziji hesitated.
In fact, it is not difficult to collect these charges. With Qi Hongxin's behavior, after arriving at Shun'an Mansion, he went out of his way a lot in handling things. It is really easy to find a few clues.
"I used to think that killing fifty-three people without asking for orders was a serious crime and could lead to dismissal or even imprisonment."
"Now that I have experienced officialdom, I feel ridiculous."
"Killing is never a problem, especially when it involves rebellion. If I submit this matter, even with the bonus of my secret identity, it won't be very smooth."
"There must be someone who will speak up for it. This speaking is not for Qi Hongxin himself, but for the sake of future local officials to quell the rebellion."
"If someone is convicted of this, who would dare to decisively suppress the civil unrest?"
"If we can't be decisive, who will maintain the overall situation of the court?"
"On the contrary, when it comes to misappropriating provincial funds, the incident is simple and clear, and it violates procedures, so it is easier to get it right."
It can be said that the locust plague has passed, water conservancy is about to be completed, and Qi Hongxin's use value is gone. Su Ziji has experienced officialdom and knows how to completely step Qi Hongxin into the quagmire, and he does have the qualifications. , knocking Qi Hongxin off his post as prefect with a hammer.
There is no need to hammer it to death all at once, you just need to hammer it out and let the seemingly stubborn and indestructible person crack the gap, and naturally people will swarm it, split it into pieces, and tear it into pieces.
But Su Ziji hesitated.
The picture of Qi Hongxin turning away that day appeared in front of his eyes, as well as the skinny body that couldn't even hold up his clothes in his sleep just now.
"However, revenge for the prince is the most important thing now."
"Maybe the emperor is watching. If we give up, will our success be in vain?"
"That's all."
"The enemy's hero is my enemy, my hero is the enemy's enemy. If it were an enemy, I wouldn't be so pretentious as to hold back, but it's not my enemy. If I were to attack such a person, I still wouldn't be able to do it."
"Even if I fall short, there is always a way to make up for it, but it must not erase my heart."
Finally, Su Ziji sighed softly, lit the prepared list with a fire, and watched it burn to ashes bit by bit.
In fact, he had already remembered what was recorded on the list, but this act of burning cleanly was just for his own sake. This was a decision he made.
Su Ziji walked to the table, and when he calmed down, he poured some water on the inkstone, then took the ink ingot and started grinding it slowly.
As the ink thickened, he finished the manuscript. He spread the paper on several cases, picked up a soft brush and licked the ink.
"[Calligraphy] Level 11 (3335/11000)"
Su Ziji was talented in literature at this time. A few lines of beautiful, elegant and harmonious words flowed out smoothly, and he wrote the memorial in a leisurely manner.
I wrote truthfully what I saw Qi Hongxin doing when I arrived at Shun'an Mansion, but writing the same thing with a different mentality will naturally give people a slightly different feeling.
He described locust control and water conservancy without emotion, and finally said: "I believe that judging people is not just about the time, but also about the future."
"Qi Hongxin's heart can be said to be loyal. Now that this person is dead, he may not have long lived, or he may be commended. This matter is beyond my control, so please order to handle it."
After finishing writing, Su Ziji put down the pen and read it again, lost in thought.
Su Ziji is the only person who can write a memorial and send it to the capital, and knows the secret behind it and the reason why he has to do so.
Others are either non-Shun'an government officials and have no right to intervene.
Either he has an opinion against Qi Hongxin, and it would be nice if he didn't go out and add insult to injury. It's impossible to go out of his way to intercede.
Furthermore, even if someone intercedes, how many of them can be more convincing and more authentic than themselves?
Once the memorial was finished, there was no room for return. Su Ziji did not immediately ask anyone to fold it. He took a deep breath, returned to the table, picked up his pen and practiced a few more words before calming down.
"Although Mrs. Qi Zhou gave me the manuscript, I really don't care about this little experience in the manuscript now."
This is true. When it comes to recruiting talents, writing experience is very important, but now that we are in this position, it is not difficult to obtain it.
"It's people like Qi Hongxin. Although I understand rationally that it is natural to die a good death, but I really can't add insult to injury to such a person."
"Although it is impossible to avenge the prince, but for the sake of revenge, I can kill such an official. Even I will look down on myself. What is the difference between that and the likes of King Qi?"
"Even Zeng Nianzhen can stick to his heart, let alone me - but these are actually sophistry. It seems that I am still pretentious and naive."
Su Ziji gave a wry smile, but no longer hesitated. He put the memorial into the small box, locked it himself, and called a soldier to summon the inspection department who was patrolling the construction site.
After a while, Na Xi came over for inspection.
Su Ziji handed the box to the other party and said, "This is a secret letter I wrote to Your Majesty. Please send someone to send it to the capital immediately."
At critical moments, the Inspection Department also needs to play the role of delivering discounts.
Inspection Xi immediately agreed. The acting prime minister in front of him still had the status of an observer of the imperial court. Although this status was unworthy, it was technically an imperial envoy. The secret documents of the imperial envoy had to be sent back through the hands of the inspection department. In Beijing, this is a normal thing.
After the others left, Su Ziji took the manuscript written by Qi Hongxin just now. With just one click, he saw the half piece of red sandalwood popping up: "Did you learn from the experience of discovering the manuscript of Qi Mansion?"
"yes."
"Qi Manuscript has been learned, [The Way of Government] +3000, Level 5 (4095/5000)"
Su Ziji didn't look happy, and looked at the commotion on the construction site with a distant look: "Qi Hongxin, now we are clear."
