Time Travel to 1859: The Iron-Blooded Soldier King

Fortunately, Liu Ye did not go completely crazy. Although Luo Tinghe's official position was not high, he was only a sixth-rank county magistrate, but he was still a county magistrate appointed by the court himself. Even if his crime was unforgivable, it would be the Ministry of Justice to try and convict him. It was not the turn of a small official like him to make comments.

After teaching Luo Tinghe a lesson, Liu Ye took Zhu Hai and his family back to the Firearm Battalion’s base.

After returning, the sky was already beginning to lighten. The cold wind cleared Liu Ye's mind a little. Last night's events had indeed gone too far. He was afraid that the censors would not allow him to act so recklessly and indifferently. Even if the censors did not take care of a few things, the high-ranking officials in the court who had been embarrassed by him would definitely not stand idly by. Now was the time to take advantage of the situation. He had been a little reckless in this matter.

Liu Ye returned to his room, lit a candle, picked up a pen, and quickly wrote two letters. He blew on them and put them in envelopes. He turned and walked out of the room, shouting, "Gao Qi! Ling Zan!"

Gao Qi and Ling Zan hurried over and replied, "Sir! What are your instructions?"

Liu Ye said in a deep voice, "Gao Qi, take my visiting card and letter and rush to Prince Gong's Mansion immediately. This letter must be delivered to Prince Gong personally! Ling Zan, take the other letter and rush to Tianjin immediately to ask to see the Monk King and hand the letter to him!"

Seeing Liu Ye's serious expression, the two men knew that the matter was urgent. They took the letter, jumped on their horses, and ran away.

Well, as long as he was fully prepared and had the two princes to support him, there shouldn't be any big problems. At most, the emperor would just give him a scolding. Liu Ye felt a little more at ease and returned to his room to catch up on some sleep.

As for Luo Tinghe now, he was in tears looking at the county government office that had become a ruin. All the detectives and runners were injured. This time he was really embarrassed. This was not the worst. The worst was his father-in-law's family. His brother-in-law He Baogui was kidnapped by a group of soldiers. No one knew whether he was alive or dead. The whole He family was burned down. His father-in-law was so frightened that he couldn't get out of bed.

When his wife got the news, she had a complete falling out with him. If he doesn't help me vent my anger, don't even think about touching my bedside again!

Luo Tinghe was shocked, angry, resentful, and afraid. It was so close, I almost lost my life! It was all the fault of that bastard He Baogui! Why pick on the most popular Liu Ye when there were so many other people to pick on?

However, Luo Tinghe was now extremely angry. This was too much bullying. Even if you have many merits and even if you are favored by the emperor, you can't tear down the county government office like this and beat me, an official appointed by the court. I will fight you to the death! The worst that can happen is that both sides will be destroyed. You are not easy to mess with, and I am not easy to mess with either!

I also have a backer in the court!

Luo Tinghe's background is not simple. Although his official position is not prominent, his father is very powerful. He has a large group of students and old friends in the whole capital, which is definitely not comparable to a nouveau riche like Liu Ye.

Luo Tinghe shouted, "Come here, prepare a sedan chair for me immediately. We will go to the capital tonight. I will bring the case to the emperor. Humph, at worst I can go home and farm. I will bring Liu Ye down no matter what!"

Luo Tinghe got on the carriage and rushed to the capital overnight. By the time the carriage arrived in the capital, it was already afternoon. Luo Tinghe did not delay at all and parked the carriage directly at the residence of Kuang Yuan, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites!

"What? You're saying that General Liu Ye of Baoding Town led his troops to besiege the Tong County government office and assaulted the official?"

Luo Tinghe knelt on the ground and cried, "Uncle, you have to make a decision for me. Not only did they demolish the county government office, but they also burned down the wealthy families in Hejiabao. My father-in-law's house was also burned to the ground. My brother-in-law He Baogui was even captured by them and taken to the Firearms Battalion. I don't know whether he is alive or dead. Uncle, you have to make a decision for me..."

Kuang Yuan's face turned pale. He was so arrogant, so arrogant, so presumptuous! This is the capital, this is the emperor's feet. How can he be so arrogant?

Luo Tinghe on the ground continued, "Uncle, the Tong County government office is still in ruins, and the He Family Fort is also in ruins!"

"What do you want?"

Kuang Yuan asked.

Luo Tinghe's face twisted as he replied, "Uncle, this is a great shame for me. I beg you to help me. I want this Liu Ye to be dismissed from his post and thrown into jail!"

Kuang Yuan frowned. It was not an easy task to bring down Liu Ye. There were two princes standing behind him. Even the most popular Lord Sushun was polite to him and looked upon him with favor. However, no matter what, Luo Tinghe was his own nephew. When his father took office, he handed him over to him. He had suffered such a great injustice. If he turned a blind eye to it, it would be unreasonable.

Kuang Yuan said in a deep voice: "Tinghe, listen to me, Liu Ye is at the peak of his career right now and is deeply favored by the emperor. It will not be easy to bring him down..."

Luo Tinghe was stunned and said anxiously: "Uncle!"

Kuang Yuan waved his hand and replied, "Don't worry. We will never give up on this matter. However, relying solely on your strength and mine is a bit insufficient. Your father is not in the capital, so we can't rely on him. If we want to bring him down, we must drag more people into it. You don't need to rest for too long. Tonight, go visit your father's old friends in the capital. He has a wide circle of friends, and there are many people who are close friends with him. Tomorrow I will report him, but if we want to succeed, we must have several important people speak out at the same time..."

Luo Tinghe nodded and replied, "Okay, I'll go find Master Woren right away. He's my master, and he definitely won't sit idly by on this matter!"

Kuang Yuan's eyes lit up. Oh, he almost forgot about this old man. The former was in the court, and Woren was bullied by Liu Ye. It was said that Woren had closed the door for more than ten days and refused to see anyone. He had lost all his face!

Kuang Yuan said, "Well, change your clothes now and rush to the Bachelor's Mansion. I'll draft a memorial right away. Liu Ye is so arrogant. It's time to severely reduce his prestige!"

Luo Tinghe said bitterly, "No, I will go to the Bachelor's Mansion wearing this outfit. This time, I want to let my mentor see how badly I've been bullied!"

Prince Gong's Mansion.

Prince Gong is now reading the letter written to him by Liu Ye.

As soon as he opened the letter, Prince Gong frowned. This Liu Ye, with such great talent and profound insights, has a terrible handwriting. It's so ugly that you can barely tell what he wrote without knowing the family or style! This bastard, with so much ink in his belly, has he wasted it all on a dog?
