Chapter 386: King Yan's Ambition
The streets and alleys outside the Li family were crowded with people watching the fun. They did not dare to get close to the cavalry, but could surround them. At the door of the houses near the left and right, there were five or six people gathered at the door of the family, and they all pointed at the Sun family.
"What happened today is really weird. As soon as my husband entered the city, he sent someone to raid the Li family in the blink of an eye. It's so weird..."
"Isn't this Li family secretly connected with the Jin Captain? Otherwise, would she be like this?"
"It's not just the Li family, but also the Wen family in Qianjie, and the Zhao family were also raided..."
When the crowds slowly gathered in the prefecture, a new news triggered countless people who were joining in the fun.
The state official Li Xianggong was also taken down.
This really made the people of Qizhou stunned. This has never happened once in many years. I asked them to catch up with him today. As for Li Hui's corruption and bribery after taking office as Qizhou, isn't this purely normal in the eyes of the people?
An old man in his fifties and sixties opened his mouth when he heard this. From what he remembered, he had never remembered how many provincial officials had changed in Qizhou in the past few decades. But the provincial officials who had been in office had a bad job, let alone Li Hui is the only one who shitted down by scorpion, he had never seen a bad job before.
The official robe was stripped off and the hat was stripped off...
Even the people at the bottom of the country knew that Li Hui had a big deal and that the magistrate and the husband was in trouble.
"Yes, yes, we encountered the most strange thing in the world."
A person next to the old man said.
Zhang Su and Han Shizhong all didn't care about the discussions of these people. After the "personal witnesses" were brought there, Li Hui was slaughtered in public.
There were bushes of silk, satin, boxes of copper, even half of gold and silver, and a large number of jewelry and treasures, including only pearls, and three boxes. The people no longer questioned why Li Hui was unlucky. Such wealth was obviously not something that his salary could buy.
Such wealth that ordinary people in the market never see in their lifetime is like the red tickets that were exposed to the walls that were exhausted by the walls in later generations, which can really shock ordinary people. At the same time, everyone is also awake to the realization that these can only be caused by Li Hui's corruption and bribery. In this way, no one will say a word to Li Hui. Has anyone ever seen the common people plead for a corrupt official?
Suddenly, some people heard a cheer from their mouths: "Well caught, this dog has made a fortune in a few days after being in office. He deserves to be arrested!"
This loud cheer attracted Han Shizhong. He turned around and searched for where the sound was made, but he couldn't tell who said it.
Although he couldn't see who was shouting, he squinted his eyes and nodded.
This is a rough piece, which starts from the army of soldiers.
The fact that one can have today's status is all achieved through fame and fortune on the battlefield. But people are not greedy for money! Since Zhao Gou's command, he has given rewards, and the money is spent, and they are divided into the hands of soldiers, or used to provide pension to the families of fallen soldiers. He has a great reputation in the army, and his reputation in the army is not inferior to Yue Fei, who can share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers.
Such a soldier loves him is particularly hated to Li Hui.
Because after taking office, the bird man did not honestly investigate the uninhibited fields under his control, but instead used the fields belonging to the soldiers for money and should be killed.
In the prefecture court, the Zhang Office did not need to be punished at all. The wealthy families who were escorted to the hall honestly explained the matter.
After seeing Li Hui's miserable appearance, they all became very obedient.
Then sign and seal it.
The crime was quickly posted outside the yamen by Zhang, and the corresponding punishment was also posted.
Li Hui was sentenced to beheading, and each of the other people was severely fined. Not only did they vomit out when they were eaten, they also had to vomit out twice. This is also because these people were very obedient and saw that the situation was not good, they all admitted their fears, and no one thought about violent resistance to the law. So the punishment was only doubled!
The people in Puyin City all knew the causes and consequences. Seeing the number of land in a unit of thousands of tiles, many people shouted from the bottom of their hearts: Good kill!
Seeing the figures counted in his hand, this was just the people in the city, and there were many powerful rural households outside the city. What's more, the activities Li Hui did affect the entire Qizhou, rather than the state-owned Puyin area.
After this matter is over, the entire Qizhou will be swept through, and the gains will never be small.
However, the news spread later that the focus of the matter was no longer Qizhou itself. Those rural tyrants were very lawless, but were the cavalry he brought to make a living?
Why did King Yan throw his beloved general Han Shizhong over? Isn’t this the only thing he is guarding against?
In fact, compared with the rural tyrants in Qizhou, the real enemy of the King of Yan was Bian Jing in the south. Even because of what the King of Yan had to do and even the hard work he had already made, his enemy was still regarded as countless scholars and officials from all over the country.
The scholars of the Song Dynasty had long been 'as hell as he pleased' in such a relaxed environment. How could they agree with the King of Yan's set of heavy sanctions in troubled times?
Li Hui is dead, but there are countless Wang Hui, Zhao Hui, Zhang Hui, Sun Hui... There are countless corrupt officials in the Song Dynasty, and no one wants to lose their lives. Even many officials who are better than Li Hui are unwilling to put a layer of shackles on themselves.
If the King of Yan's moves pushed all the officials, scholars and officials who could have been fought for to Bianjing.
The Zhang Suo did not know if Zong Ze, Zhao Bushi had already persuaded King Yan, but he had persuaded him more than once. According to the Zhang Suo's original plan, he was to take Li Hui down, dismiss him from office, or be sent to Bianjing City in prison.
Although Li Hui's behavior was really shocking.
You should know that Zhao Song had very strict regulations on corruption in the first dynasty. Don’t think that corruption in Zhao Song became a trend, and it was a world of literati, so the law was very generous to corruption. In fact, it was not the case at all.
The laws of the Song Dynasty had clear provisions: embezzlement of more than 20 taels of silver, and were distributed to Lingnan or Zhuyazhou. The embezzlement of more than 40 taels of silver, and beheaded. The Zhao family seemed very different from now on at the beginning. While promoting high salaries to maintain integrity, they would never forgive those who violated the tacit understanding of the ruler and his subjects and were blindly open to their eyes.
This may be because before Zhao Song, he was a lawless and chaotic era in the late Tang and Five Dynasties.
In the past fifty years, the world has changed and changed, and the emperor has changed and changed. When an official is not in his hands, he will gain benefits in a big way, so he may not be allowed to look like another person on his own.
Moreover, the power at that time was all in the hands of warriors, and literati were no better than chickens and ducks in front of swords and guns. They even developed the bad habit of social corruption.
Whoever brings luxury becomes popular because they don’t know how long their wealth can last. Naturally, they are drunk today.
After Chai Rong took office, he focused on rectifying the administration and rectifying the atmosphere. After Zhao took office, he continued to work harder and set a very strict rule!
20 taels of silver can now be exchanged for eighty stakes of copper coins, but in the early Song Dynasty, one tael of silver could only be exchanged for one tael of copper coins. This standard is quite harsh. Even the crimes such as corruption and "unforgivable" rebellion were included in the ranks of unforgivable. Therefore, the administration at that time had greatly improved compared to the greed that had become popular in the Five Dynasties.
Even the laws set by the Zhao family cannot be taken seriously.
Especially after the Lao Zhao family's country was firmly settled, everything became even more relaxed. By the time of Zhezong, the officials who committed death sentences all over the world, regardless of civil and military affairs, lived a life of nine points.
It is obviously all death sentences, but nine of them can survive with ten reasons. Half of those nine can continue to be officials.
Zhao Gou is now going to re-exert the way Boss Zhao was at that time, and even more so, he fought with flies and tigers. After the news spread, I really don’t know how much help it would add to the Zhao official family in Bianjing City.
But the same is, when so much support was continued to be defeated by the King of Yan, the power of the whole world was completely reshuffled, and it was no longer a change of the emperor without changing the medicine.
Now that Zhang Suo knew the ambition of King Yan, he had to go out and accompany King Yan for a while.
