Chapter 208 Xianling is late

Facts have proved that human potential is infinite, and the key is whether there are enough conditions to stimulate it.

Whether it was to keep the official position that he had finally obtained, or to be devoted to the country, Xi'an Prefecture Ma Wei-chan rushed to Lantian County that night, not to mention the next day.

In order to ensure speed, Ma Wei-chan, who is usually quite eye-catching, didn't even sit in a sedan chair, and rushed from Xi'an Prefecture to Lantian County.

But after arriving at the county government office of Lantian County, looking at Emperor Chongzhen's expressionless face, Ma Wei-chan felt that his calves were spinning, and he was also complaining secretly in his heart.

He was so fucking wronged about what happened today. When it comes to the food used for disaster relief, Ma Wei-chan dared to swear by his ancestors' eight generations that he really didn't greedy for a grain of food from it.

Although my salary in this position is not too much, my daily expenses are enough.

In addition, I am still in the test list of Renchen Hall in the 20th year of Wanli, and there is still a lot of room for further growth, so I will not be greedy if I take the initiative to greed - especially when the emperor is so murderous, I will have no courage to greed.

As for the filial piety to the superiors on weekdays and the filial piety of the subordinates on weekdays, can that be considered greedy? It’s just a relationship of human nature. As long as the amount of money is not too large, there will be no problem.

But there is an old saying that when people sit at home, disaster comes from heaven.

There was a lot of grain that he should allocate to Lantian County, but what he never expected was that the county magistrate of Lantian County, Shen Xiuting, dared to be so greedy and made such a big mess.

If you say you are greedy, just be greedy. At least don’t starve to death. Even if you starve to death, can you handle the beginning and end well? This is a fucking emperor who visited the current dynasty, and he also implicated me!

Ma Wei-chan, who secretly cursed Shen Xiuting in his heart, first paid a great honor to Emperor Chongzhen, and then stood there respectfully waiting for Emperor Chongzhen's destiny.

Chongzhen glanced at Ma Wei-chan with a expressionless face. This person was the first person to report the severe drought in Shaanxi. He originally thought about whether it would be of great use, but he never thought that he was a fool who couldn't even figure out the corruption of the county officials under his jurisdiction. It seemed that this person could be used, but he could not be considered a big use. It was probably not good to be a censor or something. It would be better to let it go for the matter in charge of the government.

Chongzhen, who was calculating in his heart, said, "Tomorrow, you will take charge of the matter of releasing food. Then you will accompany me to take a look at the Xi'an Prefecture. See what your rule is like."

Ma Weiyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The situation in Lantian County was a very special case in the news he knew, but he didn't know why the emperor chose Lantian County - he was so unlucky that he went to his grandma's house.

After Emperor Chongzhen gave the order, he ordered Ma Wei-chan to retreat and rest. As for the two unlucky guys, Shen Xiuting and Wu Qi, they simply threw them into the prison in Lantian County and were held separately, waiting for Tian Ergeng and Cao Huachun to come before dealing with it.

On the next day, Emperor Chongzhen was still in a state of condolences and brought Ma Wei to the porridge-double site not far from Lantian County.

Looking at the crowd queuing up to receive the porridge from afar, Chongzhen asked, "What did Ma Aiqing see?"

Ma Wei-chan didn't know what Emperor Chongzhen asked about this, so he had to answer honestly: "I heard from Your Majesty, I saw the victims who received the porridge."

Chongzhen nodded, said after a nod, "What I see is not the victims who receive the porridge, but a force that changes the world and changes the world."

Seeing that although Ma Wei-chan bowed, he still disagreed with the magic. Emperor Chongzhen, who was deliberately training Ma Wei-chan towards the direction of the civil servant, continued: "Since Qin and the Ming Dynasty, how many dynasties have been experienced in total? Apart from Jin and Song, how many were caused by the civil unrest?"

When Ma Wei-chan heard this, he took a breath of air. If he didn't think about this, it was just a change in the dynasty.

But when I really thought about it as the emperor said, I realized that no matter which dynasty or which dynasty it was, it was because of these inconspicuous people that they had truly changed their dynasties.

The Han Dynasty was the Five Barbarians, and the Han Dynasty was destroyed by force, which was the Yellow Turban Rebellion that these people first started and the Three Kingdoms that emerged later.

The Mongol Yuan, which beat the whole world, was also driven back to the grassland by Emperor Taizu Gao, who was born in a short period of time.

How similar are the victims in front of you to the Yellow Turban Rebellion and those who were unable to eat during the Yuan Dynasty? Who knows whether anyone here will rebel and rise up when they cannot survive?

As for the two doughs of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Crossing of the Old Song Dynasty, they are simply exceptions and have no reference significance at all.

Seeing that Ma Wei-chan's expression changed when he looked at the people, Emperor Chongzhen, who was satisfied, continued: "In my opinion, the people of my Ming Dynasty are the best people in the world. If they have a bite of rice to eat, they will not choose to rebel, but will instead farm for a living.

But why can't the officials in the court and the officials from all over the Ming Dynasty see through? If the officials forced the people to rebel, they would finally be satisfied by the furious victims to pieces? Well?!"

Ma Wei-chung was speechless for a moment, but he heard Emperor Chongzhen continue, "Let's go and see what kind of porridge is like in Lantian County."

In fact, just as Emperor Chongzhen and Ma Wei-chan were talking, someone found Emperor Chongzhen and Ma Wei-chan in official uniform under the greenhouse where the porridge was being served. They just saw the two chatting there, so no one came to disturb him.

Now the two came over from afar, and Chongzhen was the first among them. Ma Wei-chan, dressed in a prefect, followed him step by step. He knew that this young man with a niche face was the most noble person, so those yamen runners who avoided the move because they were playing porridge yesterday were waiting for the two to come and ask questions. There was no such thing as the most common pretentious slap in the novel.

But when Chongzhen approached and saw the rice soup in the big pot under the porridge shed, his anger that had already been suppressed in his heart came up with a blink of an eye.

Looking at the yamen runners who were bent in front of him waiting for his orders, and were hiding farther away, but were still staring at the big pot of disaster victims. Chongzhen, who was as heavy as water, asked, "Is this how it is to put porridge every day?"

Because the yamen runners who were not in the county yamen escaped yesterday's disaster, they also knew that the county yamen were surrounded by some Qiuba people. It is said that there were many screams coming from behind. The yamen runners, who were already nervous, were now scared to speak when they heard the noble man in front of them.

After a long time, a yamen runner who looked like a squad stood up, first bowed, then bowed and said, "If you say goodbye to the young master, this porridge is sometimes thinner and sometimes thicker. If you catch up with the county master, this porridge will be thicker. As for the weekdays, it is probably just like this now."

Chongzhen held back his anger, but finally couldn't bear it. He raised his foot and kicked the table next to him, shouting angrily: "It's not good for the dog official to bully me!"

With a clang, the table with some broken bowls on it finally failed to stabilize and fell to the ground. Even some broken bowls on the table were smashed to pieces.

The close-kicks and the victims could hear clearly. Since the First Emperor, who dared to use the word "I" on weekdays? Look at the prefect who was like a young wife who was following the noble prince in front of him, who didn't know that the emperor had arrived in person? For a moment, the yamen running under the porridge shed and the victims near him fell to his knees.

However, the victims who were far away could only see the noble man kicking the table where the porridge was placed, and his voice suddenly became bulging. Although the porridge was a little thin, it had a sip. If there was no such thing, what should I do if I was all waiting to starve to death?

Thinking of this, these victims looked at Chongzhen with more or less bad eyes.

Fang Zhenghua and Zhu Gang, who were guarding Chongzhen, were observing the situation around him. Seeing this, they hurriedly greeted him: "Protect the car!" First, they sent a signal to summon the Beijing camp, and then they called the accompanying Neichang Fanzi and Jinyiwei to surround Emperor Chongzhen.

In just a moment, the soldiers of the Beijing camp who were already very close and were on guard had already surrounded this small square-like place. A group of soldiers from the Hundred Houses quickly ran to Chongzhen and surrounded the periphery of the Jinyiwei, completely isolated Emperor Chongzhen and the victims.

As soldiers from Beijing camp rushed over, they kept shouting to protect their vehicles. Even some victims from far away knew that the young man who kicked the table was the current emperor who had come here in vain.

Although the victims who were waiting to put the porridge were extremely confused why the emperor kicked the table down, the soldiers around him were not making fun of it. Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied, they had to suppress them and kneel down on the back of the ground and shout long live.

These victims were not sure about it, but Zhang Zhiji, who had been guarding with his soldiers, just looked at the big pot of porridge, and his heart felt like a mirror.

This is a damn thing, not just a porridge, but a few grains of rice are added. This bowl of porridge is just a urinary effort, and people will have to continue to be hungry! What a magistrate of Lantian County! It would be strange if the emperor was not angry in this case!

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen, who had a gloomy face, first picked up a relatively intact bowl from the ground, then picked up a spoon and sucked it in the pot for a long time before he could catch a bowl of rice.

Then, Emperor Chongzhen picked up a chopstick and inserted it into the bowl. Then he stared at the chopsticks with red eyes and said, "Transfer my will and ordered the Jinyiwei Tiqi to spread out to supervise the release of grain. The porridge that is released must be inserted into chopsticks, and the chopsticks will fall down! No matter which prefecture or county, a chopstick will fall down and a commoner will starve to death. I will want their heads! The heads of the nine clans!"

Since this passage was almost roaring, which one of the nearby people and the yamen runners could not hear clearly? For a moment, the people started to talk about it first.

"How about it, I'll just say that these officials are all indifferent. How could the emperor ignore us?"

"A wise king! A wise king!"

"It's all right now, I finally don't have to be hungry anymore!"

"I said why did a golden light flash just now? It turned out that the emperor has arrived. No wonder, no wonder."

Listening to the discussions of the people nearby, Chongzhen yelled silently and then shouted loudly: "I, I will give you an explanation today!"

After saying that, he ignored the curious people's whispers. Chongzhen then ordered Zhu Gang, "Go and bring Chen Xiuting. Also, prepare for the punishment platform. I will cut him alive here today!"

Zhu Gang bowed and said, "I obey the order!" Then he ordered people to prepare the execution ground torture instruments, and ordered people to go to the prison to pick up Chen Xiuting to this small square.

Chen Xiuting, who had already been waiting for death, saw that it was not a single knife to finish the matter, but instead tied himself to the wooden rack. He was shocked, but he didn't know where he came from and shouted: "Your Majesty will be kind! Your Majesty will be kind! The sinner knew that he was wrong! Please give your Majesty a kind!"

Emperor Chongzhen, who had a gloomy face, ignored him and did not even give him a command to remove his chin - you yelled at me, if you bite your tongue and commit suicide, you can't die anyway!

If you can't say that there are many talents in the Jinyiwei and they are very studious.

Since the last time when Jiannu besieged the capital, Emperor Chongzhen ordered the people of the Jinyiwei to cut Haoge alive. Since then, many people in the Jinyiwei have gone to Dali Temple and the masters of the Ministry of Justice to ask the craftsmanship of Lingchi.

Seeing that his subordinates had tied up Chen Xiuting, Zhu Gang bowed to Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, the criminal is ready."

Chongzhen said with a gloomy face: "Go and find a few more dogs."

This time, it took nearly half an hour to delay - can the hungry victims still make the dog survive? Many of them were beaten to death and ate meat!

After Zhu Gang's Jinyiwei searched the entire Lantian County, he found four or five hungry dogs with green eyes, Emperor Chongzhen stared at Chen Xiuting and said, "I will cut this bastard alive, and I will even break my bones in a while and feed them to the dog!"

Hearing Chongzhen's orders, Zhu Gang bowed and said, "Please execute me personally."

After Chongzhen nodded in agreement, Zhu Gang said to Chen Xiuting with a grim smile: "Grandson, grandpa, I'll serve you personally today!"

After saying that, he quickly stepped onto the execution platform. He didn't know where to pull out a single-edged knife from his body, so he grabbed Chen Xiuting's eyelid and cut it down with one knife.

After cutting his eyelids, Zhu Gang punched Chen Xiuting in the stomach that was screaming. When Chen Xiuting was groaning, he said with a grin: "Grandson, you have to open your eyes and look at it. How did you make you a roast duck in the capital!"

Although the people watching in the distance could not hear what Zhu Gang was saying, they could see clearly that it was an eyelid cutting and a stomachache, and they were cheering loudly for a while.
