Chapter 440 Mizhi disaster relief, King Xin is furious (two in one)(2/2)
Li Hongji was in a bad mood and naturally became angry when he found out that he had been cuckolded by his wife. He immediately picked up the kitchen knife and rushed in: "What an adulterer! I won't kill you!"
Seeing this, the adulterer Gaihu immediately climbed over the window and escaped.
At this time, Li Hongji was lifting the curtain and seeing that the adulterer had escaped, his wife was there, and he was furious and had no intention of caring about the adulterer, so he killed his wife first.
After killing the person, Li Hongji became a little scared and couldn't help but drop the knife and flee from Mizhi County.
...
However, not long after Li Hongji escaped, he met Zhu Youjian and his group who returned to Mizhi County.
Li Hongji, who was killed, was naturally scared when he saw Zhu Youjian representing the court, and turned around and ran in another direction.
Zhu Youjian shouted, "Catch him!"
Not long after, Li Hongji was caught and returned.
"What are you running?"
Zhu Youjian asked because of this.
Li Hongji denied, "I am afraid because I see Your Highness Wang Wei."
Zhu Youjian continued to ask: "Why did you come out with a bag? Aren't you an in-postman? How could you leave without authorization?!"
Li Hongji had no choice but to reply honestly: "Go back to Your Highness, the young man has been dismissed. Because he cannot repay Ai Juren's debt, he has to escape!"
"Debt? What debt, but usury?"
Zhu Youjian grasped the key points and started asking questions.
Li Hongji replied: "Yes, due to the disaster, the price of grain is much more expensive than in previous years. It costs a lot of money to eat. In addition, the young man took the job of this postman and gave gifts to the postman, so he could only borrow usury! He originally wanted to pay back the money he earned at the post station, but now the young man was dismissed for no reason. Then Mr. Ai was anxious to collect debts, and the young man really couldn't live!"
After hearing this, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the magistrate and gentry of Mizhi County were lying to him and did not stop collecting debts.
"So, he was dismissed because of his dismissal. Your Highness, it would be better to let him follow him first and become an official. After entering the city, some things may be necessary for him."
Ma Maocai suggested at this time.
"allow!"
Zhu Youjian replied.
Li Hongji, who had nowhere to go, was so amnesty that he immediately kowtowed and thanked him.
Then, Zhu Youjian brought Li Hongji and others to Mizhi County.
As a result, as soon as Zhu Youjian arrived at Mizhi County, he saw a large number of victims congested outside the city, and even many of them were driven out by officials. The porridge shed that had been left yesterday was also withdrawn.
