227. More than ten years ago
The capital, the imperial palace, the residence of the Queen Mother! Bai Liyun stayed alone in the room, in a trance, looking at the garden outside the window in a quiet daze! Recalling the incident that caused a sensation in the capital more than ten years ago. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
More than ten years ago, when Baili Tiancheng and Baili Tianheng were not princes and emperors. The two of them were one writer and one martial arts, assisting the emperor at that time to rectify the government.
In the cold wind of winter, a sensational event occurred in the capital, and the people who were officials in the capital were so frightened that they wanted to return to the field, why? Because in that winter, hundreds of officials, large and small, died in the entire capital.
The dead officials were all killed without knowing it, and all the people in the criminal department could not find any clues.
Everyone thought that the dead officials were killed by people in the martial arts, and the martial arts wanted to overthrow the Sunset Dynasty, but no outsiders knew that this was just a conspiracy between Baili Tiancheng, Baili Tianheng, and the emperor at that time.
The officials who were killed were all corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the biggest tiger, Guo Huan, should hand over 4.5 million stone of grain when he harvested autumn grain in the west.
However, Guo Huan and others only handed over 600,000 stone of grain and 800,000 ingot bills, equivalent to 2 million stone of grain, and 1.9 million stone were not paid.
Guo Huan and others accepted bribes of 500,000 yuan in banknotes from the western prefecture and other prefectures, and connived at local government, prefecture, county, and other officials to privately distribute public grain. In 5 state capitals, hundreds of thousands of stone grains were privately swallowed by official Guo Huan.
In this way, Guo Huan embezzled more than 7 million stones of national grain. According to later generations, more than 24 million stone grains were embezzled by these moths.
It's fun to kill corrupt officials! How painful it is to chase stolen goods!
So the father and son decided to arrest all the corrupt officials in the capital.
The entire yamen of the household department was finished, all the officials below the left and right squires were killed, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment, the Squire of the Military Department, and the Squire of the Ministry of Works were all secretly assassinated.
Later, he pursued the stolen goods in various areas of the capital, and coerced the corrupt officials to say that they had collected 7 million stones, in short, no matter how many people were arrested and assassinated, they had to find out the grain before they could stop.
Since then, there has been a bloody storm all over the capital. Officials of all sizes, such as political envoys, wealthy people, and those who had a little money in their families, and those who had dealings with corrupt officials, were imprisoned and killed, and the number was as high as tens of thousands.
As a result, most of the middle-income and above-middle-income families went bankrupt, especially in the western region, where many people were raided and the wealthy families were almost wiped out.
The common people complained, and the officials should be frightened, but they did not dare to scold the emperor openly, but were angry with Wu Yong, the chief criminal officer who tried the case. Wu Yong became the target of public criticism.
Later, the investigation and punishment of corrupt officials swept the country, and there was an "empty seal case" at that time, which scared everyone out of their hearts, and was considered by outsiders to be a big injustice concocted by the royal family.
Every year, the provincial political envoys and all prefectures, prefectures, and counties send people to the household department to report on the local financial situation, check the money, grain, military supplies, etc., and the household department conducts an audit.
The audit of the household department is very strict, and the money valley figures, one liter and one combination, one cent and one cent, do not match the millimeter, and the entire accounting book has to be re-made and filled.
It is very troublesome to re-register, and the account book must be stamped with the official seal of the local government.
It takes a long time to go back to the capital to re-stamp the local seal, and some remote places cannot be reached for a month or even a few months.
Because of the long distance, the local officials brought a spare blank ledger and stamped the official seal first. Once the account book is called back by the household department and has not been passed, it will be filled in again immediately. This practice is the same as using a blank invoice, which is stamped first and then filled in, although it does not comply with the procedure, but it is also excusable.
This procedure has become a common practice since the founding of the Sunset Country, and everyone is used to it, and no one cares.
The father and son and some Qing officials took advantage of this situation, and on the surface, the father and son were furious, feeling that it was a big deal, and the local officials were all deceiving him, and there must be adultery among them. is known as the most hated corruption, furious, and seems to be an example of a hundred, but it is infinitely on the line.
At that time, the father and son ordered that the number one or accountant in charge of the official seal at the county guard level should be executed, and the two canes should be 100 strokes, and the army frontier should be filled (on the death of the chief officials, and the two lists are one hundred soldiers.
At that time, there was a person named Fang Keqin, who was recognized by everyone as a good official, and he also "died unjustly" in this case, but in fact, he was the biggest corrupt official.
Because Hu Weiyong's case had not yet been concluded at that time, people were holding their tails to protect themselves, and almost no one dared to come out and say nothing. At this time, two people who were not afraid of death jumped out to reason with the emperor.
One is Zheng Shili, a big businessman in Shidong County, who desperately wrote a letter to state the grievances of the empty seal case:
"The empty printing of the book is entirely a measure of rights, and it is not a sin to keep it for a long time. Talents are rare, and it takes decades for the imperial court to train a cadre. People can't be resurrected after death, and the court kills talents so endlessly, it's really sad that the court destroys talents! ”
When the father and son saw this letter, they couldn't help but laugh and cry, and only then did they know that there are really people in this world who are not afraid of death.
Zheng Shili said: "I make suggestions for the country, even if I die, I will say it!" There is no mastermind! ”
Because Zheng Shili's theory with the emperor and the prince was very sensational, many people knew about it, and the father and son decided to add another fire and called Zheng Shili to the palace, which was ostensibly a theory, but in fact it was a discussion.
When Zheng Shili heard the truth, he agreed without hesitation.
In the following days, the news of "being executed" spread, and the people considered it to be a "big injustice".
Another person who dares to tell the truth is Ye Boju, a local official, but the truth is generally not good.
Ye Boju cited the example of the empty seal case to persuade the father and son to kill less innocents, criticized the emperor for relying too much on strict punishment and strict laws, and said that the emperor "is too extravagant in dividing the feuds, too many punishments, and too eager to seek treatment", predicting that he will definitely be usurped in the future.
Although every sentence was on the point, but after all, they didn't know the truth, the father and son couldn't cry and laugh again, jumped up on the spot and wanted to shoot him to death with their own hands, and later put him in the prison of the Criminal Department, and "starved to death".
There was no news of this since, and I don't know if it was really dead or something.
After the Guo Huan case and the empty seal case, many innocent officials "died unexpectedly" in the eyes of outsiders, but in fact they were corrupt officials and corrupt officials.
This is the old emperor's preparation for abdicating and letting Xian, although he knows that corrupt officials will never be killed, the more they kill, the more they kill, the twilight criminals, one after another, killing and killing, no matter how they can't be killed, corrupt officials are like eating and drinking, they still commit crimes, and they are not afraid at all.
However, this is to have a deterrent effect, so that corrupt officials can restrain themselves and do things well.
In which cold winter, tens of thousands of corrupt officials died in the entire Sunset Country, all the small and big greedy were openly arrested and assassinated, and those suspected of being greedy were all thrown into the criminal department for interrogation, and only after confirming their innocence were they allowed to do so.
Such a fuss brought out the cultivation power of many officials, stabilized the dynasty, and also dealt with the rice-boring insects on a large scale, completely cleaned the dynasty of the sunset country, and abdicated to make way for Xian.
Come to your senses!
Bai Liyun looked at the evergreen trees in the garden, sighed, and said to herself: "It seems that the whole country is going to come again and clean up the dynasty." ”
"Sister Qianyun, what are you cleaning up the Chaogang?" As soon as the words fell, a six or seven-year-old girl sneaked into the room and said strangely,
When Bai Liyun saw this little girl, she smiled, got up and picked up the little girl, and said, "What do you know when you are a little kid, you will know when you are older." ”
"Humph! Sister Qianyun, don't look at me as young, my father found me a master and said that I am very smart. The little girl raised her head and said arrogantly.
"Really? I don't know, you must be really lying to me, learn to lie at a young age, see if I don't spank your ass. Bailiyun pretended to be ignorant when she heard this, and suddenly said with a straight face.
"I didn't lie, the queen mother said that my father didn't like a lying princess, so I won't lie, otherwise I will take you to my concubine to see if what I said is true." The little girl was not afraid when she saw Bai Liyun's "angry" appearance, but defended herself.
Seeing the little girl's expression of being honest, Bai Liyun smiled happily and asked, "Why did you little girl come here?" And also a person. ”
This little girl is Baili Tianheng's most beloved daughter, the second daughter of Queen Xiaohui of the Sunset Country today, Baili Qiuxia.
"Who said that I came alone, I came to greet the imperial grandmother with my mother, but the imperial grandmother sent someone to call you, and you couldn't hear it, so I came here." Baili Qiuxia glanced at Baili Yun and explained.
Bai Liyun was stunned when she heard this, and smiled embarrassedly, thinking back to the cleanup of the dynasty more than ten years ago, she may have been too engrossed, so she didn't hear it, and said nonsense: "I knew it, so I deliberately pretended not to hear it just now, so I let you come over." ”
"Really? Sister Qianyun, I'm not a three-year-old child, don't lie to me..."
"Why am I lying to you, you were only three years old when my sister left the capital, and now it's been four years in a blink of an eye, and my sister wants to kill you." Bai Li Yun kissed Bai Li Qiuxia on the cheek and said with a smile.
"Oops! If you don't kiss me, will you miss me in the future? You're going to get married, and after you get married, you'll have your own children, and you won't think about me anymore. After the joy of Baili Qiuxia, he complained.
Baili Yun was embarrassed, and her smile was petrified.

.....
At this time, in Four Seasons County, West City, Ye Guangyuan's room in the building sales center, Ren Xiaoyao finally waited for Ye Guangyuan.
"Ye Guangyuan, what have you done? Why are you hiding in the palace and don't dare to see me? Ren Xiaoyao looked at Ye Guangyuan with a smile and asked.
Ye Guangyuan saw Ren Xiaoyao's smiling expression, his body trembled, he explained with a sad face, and stopped talking: "Xiaoyao boy, didn't you sell a lot of houses yesterday?" You're also very high-minded, and of course I'm also very high-minded, and then I have a little problem, and I like to drink when I'm happy, so last night..."
"So last night, you got drunk, and then you somehow wrote that announcement?" Ren Xiaoyao answered.
"Yes, yes, that announcement was written in this situation, Xiaoyao, you are so smart..."
"Smart you dead man, do you think what you say can be pushed away? I don't care about this matter anyway, you can do it yourself! Ren Xiaoyao said angrily when he heard this.
He waited for Ye Guangyuan from this morning to now, and while waiting, there were no fewer poor people outside the sales center, but more and more, all of them came to ask if there was a free house.
In the morning, he thought that some poor people who didn't know how to read had heard about it, after all, one thing was passed on to ten, ten to hundred, and the matter was passed on and on, and it might not be the original truth.
But when he saw that there was no shortage of people outside the sales center, and there was a well-dressed gentleman among them, he realized that it might not be something he had heard of, but that there was something wrong with the announcement.
So he immediately found someone to tear down the announcement and let the security guard tell the crowd that this matter will only be concluded tomorrow. Then he took the announcement to Bailijie and asked her what was written on the announcement.
Knowing the truth, he was stunned at the time, and it was written in black and white that he had the opportunity to get a house for free.
His original intention was just to free the down payment and help the poor to own their own houses, anyway, even if all the houses were sold, it would not be much money, but it was not a free house.
The human heart is greedy, it doesn't have, it wants to have, and if it has, it wants more. If you are not your own, you want to be your own, this is the truest thought of the human heart.
Some people believe that greed is the result of the material society, which is the result of the nature that people should not have.
He also said that if he talked about the decline of society, he would even be put on the sign of "angry youth" to complain or criticize the bad society.
In fact, this is a very normal thing, complaining about the "population" that shirks responsibility, but they don't sort out the relationship between chickens and eggs, who doesn't hope to get more rewards and recognition from the society?
People's hearts are greedy, but they should learn how to be satisfied, how to choose, and they should never be too greedy and do not know the truth of knowing enough happiness. Only in this way will we live in reality and live happily ever after.
As far as this matter is concerned, Ren Xiaoyao doesn't even need to think about what those poor people think now, what he wants to do is to give them a chance to prove themselves, nothing is impossible, as long as they are willing to work hard.
However, all this was ruined by Ye Guangyuan.
"Don't! Xiaoyao, that's 32,000 taels of silver, you can't ask me to carry it alone! There are still seventy or eighty high halls in my family, and children of a few ages need me..."Ye Guangyuan said with a sad face.
Ren Xiaoyao was speechless, looking at Ye Guangyuan, who didn't have a single tear coming out, there were only three words in his mind: thick-skinned, even if he made a show for himself, he had to squeeze two tears out.
"Okay, okay, it's annoying to see you, let me think about it." Ren Xiaoyao frowned and said impatiently.
In fact, these tens of thousands of taels are nothing to the two of them now, and they can be taken out casually, but Ye Guangyuan wants to see if Ren Xiaoyao has a way, and Ren Xiaoyao wants to teach Ye Guangyuan a lesson.
Drinking and making mistakes, Ren Xiaoyao has already known this truth on the earth, so he wants to take this matter and let Ye Guangyuan remember it for a long time, otherwise when he cooperates with him in the future, I don't know if he will be pitted too, not afraid of god-like opponents, just afraid of pig-like teammates, this is the truth.
"How's it going, do you think of it?" Ye Guangyuan saw Ren Xiaoyao's frowning expression, and said anxiously.
In the week of selling the house, although he earned tens of thousands of taels every day, he was not so arrogant and gave away tens of thousands of taels for nothing.
Ren Xiaoyao glanced at Ye Guangyuan, and said impatiently: "What are you arguing about, now you know that you are distressed?" You don't have a brain to do things, you don't have fun at work, you don't have to work with entertainment, you can't stick to such a simple principle, what do you do to buy and sell. ”
"Well, I don't want to! How, is there a way? Ye Guangyuan directly ignored Ren Yao's scolding words and said anxiously.
