"For one term of office, for the benefit of one party."

Wang Song pointed to Zhao Ying and Cao Ju in front of him, shook his head and said, "Zhao Ying, Cao Ju, from now on, you two are no longer the Zhizhou of Cizhou and the Zhixian of Fuyang." As for how to deal with the two of you, the Xuanfu Division has its own laws to punish you. ”

Zhao Ying and Cao Ju were both stunned and stunned in the hall.

Zhao Ying looked at each other angrily and said loudly: "Wang Song, I don't know what crime the old man has committed, you actually want to remove the old man from his official position?"

Ma was shocked and said loudly: "Zhao Ying, bold, you dare to call Xianggong's name!"

The people next to him were also dumbfounded. The guards were furious and strode forward, about to arrest Zhao Yingtang.

"Wait!"

Wang Song stopped the guards below, stared at Zhao Ying with his eyes, and said word by word: "Zhao Ying, do you want me to tell me your faults?"

"Xianggong, the lower official is guilty!"

Cao Ju was frightened, quickly grabbed Zhao Ying's sleeve, and persuaded in a low voice: "Zhao Zhizhou, don't be stubborn, hurry up and ask Wang Xianggong for guilt!"

Zhao Ying's face turned pale, and he shook off Cao Ju at once, and said loudly: "Wang Song, you should tell me what the old man has done, and let the people below be convinced!"

Wang Song's eyes became fierce, he suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Ying, Xuanfu Si sent you to Cizhou to serve as the governor, but to investigate the people's concealment, revitalize the needy, care for loneliness, and raise widows, widows, old and weak, what have you done?"

"This official has a clear conscience!"

Zhao Ying is still vigorous and confident.

"Wang Song, this official thinks that the official is honest and honest, and he benefits one party, and he can't tolerate others to put his beak!"

"I don't think you're even worthy of being a man!"

Wang Song was furious, pointed at Zhao Ying, and scolded loudly.

"You are mediocre and greedy, for the sake of the interests of a small number of wealthy rightists, regardless of the boiling of public grievances, causing the hardships of the people and provoking civil uprisings. On the contrary, he is not ashamed to speak out here. Whose ruler are you going to be, and whose parents are you?"

Zhao Ying's face was flushed, and he stood in the hall, speechless for a while.

Zhu Meng said and came in, holding a stack of papers and placing them on the desk in front of Wang Song.

Wang Song picked up the paper, glanced at it a few times, threw it away, and all of it fell to the ground. He said loudly:

"Zhao Ying, take a look, these are all the people of Cizhou participating in you, take a closer look, don't you feel blushing?"

He grabbed a booklet on the table, opened it, and said: "This is an investigation by the Department of Integrity and Integrity, since you took office last year, you have accepted more than 20,000 bribes, two houses, and three prostitutes, can you admit it?"

Zhao Ying was annoyed and ashamed, and retorted loudly: "Officials accept donations from villagers, and it has been the same since ancient times, and my Great Song Dynasty rarely punished officials for this. I want to ask you, whose Xuanfu Division is you, and what does it have to do with the Great Song Dynasty, and has Your Majesty personally issued an order?"

Everyone in the hall was once again scorched by thunder. Everyone looked at Wang Song in unison.

Cao Ju saw that the muscles on Wang Song's face were distorted, his body trembled slightly, and he knelt on the ground with a "plop", and kowtowed again and again and begged loudly: "Xianggong, Zhao Ying is already crazy, don't be like him!"

Zhang Biao and Zhang Jun's faces were as if they were dead, and they kowtowed on the ground together, and said loudly: "Xianggong spares his life!" Spare your life!"

Ma Kuo stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Xianggong, the world is not quiet, the Jin people and Xia people are eyeing each other, waiting for an opportunity to fight back." Don't miss the world's major events for the sake of these sour words!"

Guo Yong was frightened, this Zhao Ying is also a famous Qingliu in Hebei, and he is also in a bad relationship with himself. Today, he made such a fuss, where did he put Wang Song, where did he put himself?

Zhu Meng said righteously, and said angrily: "The Son of Heaven protects the country and the people, resists foreign insults, and the people are all courtiers." The people's bones are like mountains, the Tao dies on the way, and the fan kills wantonly, where is the Son of Heaven, where is the court?"

"Providence dictates, not manpower!"

Zhao Ying's face was upright and high-spirited

, long sleeves waved.

"Wang Songgui is the Xuanfu envoy of Lianghe and Shaanxi, he does not listen to the orders of the imperial court, does not respect the laws of the imperial court, and supports the army with self-respect, which is no different from the pseudo-Qi. I don't accept it!"

"Zhao Ying, since you are so loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, why didn't you follow the Song Dynasty south? Since you have accepted the official position of the Xuanfu Division, why can't you fulfill your duties? As a member of the party, you ignore the suffering of the people, accept bribes, and provoke civil unrest, and you do not repent, and you are here to make a lot of nonsense. Do you think this is your Great Song Dynasty? ”

Wang Song was furious, but his voice was calm.

"Since the beginning of the army, this official has fought dozens of battles, annihilated hundreds of thousands of Jin soldiers, and Fuzhou was almost killed. I, Wang Song, as the prime minister of Xuanfu, have no money to spare, and only have two sleeves of fresh air. The upper is worthy of heaven and earth, and the lower is worthy of Li Min, worthy of heaven and earth. ”

Guo Yong's face turned red, and he stepped forward and bowed: "Xianggong, the lower officials are ashamed, and the lower officials have the trust of the Xianggong!"

Wang Song's face was ugly, and he said loudly: "The king is a minister, the king is not like a king, and the minister is not like a minister." The Jin people are raging, and the people's bones are like mountains, in addition to the king being responsible, it is more that you Zhao Ying only cares about selfish interests and does not care about the people, only the family, not the heroic and strong of the nation, and the sin done by the scholars!"

"It's better, usually tie up your hands and talk about your heart, and report to the king when you die. Most of them will collapse at the touch of a button, or flee from the battle, or open the door to steal, anyway, as long as they save their own lives, what does it matter to me whether these grass people live or die!"

Everyone in the lobby unconsciously lowered their heads, and the first-class celebrities were guilty in their hearts, and they didn't feel respectful.

Zhao Ying's face turned from red to white, cloudy and uncertain. He never expected that Wang Song was so clever that he couldn't speak.

"Originally, I still wanted to save some face for you, but I didn't expect you to be so stubborn and unrepentant. Now it's ready to fly, and I have to send it!"

Wang Song turned to Guo Yong next to him and asked in a deep voice: "Governor Guo, you have raised the Hebei Prison, according to the charges provided by the Department of Integrity, how should Zhao Ying, Cao Ju and others deal with it?"

"Xianggong, Zhao should be beheaded according to the law, and Cao Ju will be imprisoned for three to five years. But ......"

Guo Yong hesitated: "Since Emperor Taizong in our dynasty, few ministers above the state level have been sentenced to death. Moreover, Zhao Yingtang collided with Xianggong, if the punishment was too severe, I was afraid that others would think that Xianggong was suspected of retaliation. ”

Zhao Ying's face turned pale and stammered, "Wang...... Pine, you ...... Dare to kill...... Me?"

"I won't kill you, I have my own law!"

Wang Song Zhengse said: "Everything has its own law. If you die, the law will kill you!"

"Wang Song, I'm not done with you! Xianggong, spare your life!"

Wang Song walked out of the lobby, and Zhao Yingsheng's hoarse shouts and cries came from behind.

Guo Yong followed behind and said in a low voice: "Xianggong, do you really want to deal with Zhao Ying and Cao Ju according to the law?"

Wang Song nodded, and said in a low and cold voice: "This is the first case of an official embezzlement of ink in the Xuanfu Division, and everything is based on the law. No one can intercede, but they can't cause harm to their families!"

Guo Yong breathed a sigh of relief and bowed: "Thank you Xianggong for your success!"

He knew in his heart that Wang Song was doing this in exchange for Zhao Ying's life in exchange for the safety of Zhao Ying's family. Zhao Ying almost caused a popular uprising, corrupted the law, and was already a crime that could not be forgiven, and no one could save him.

Seeing Wang Song and a few people coming out, the people in the courtyard fell to their knees. Most of them were dark-faced, unkempt, and ragged, apparently poor.

"Xianggong is the master of our poor people, the old man is grateful to Xianggong!"

An old man with gray hair in front of him respectfully kowtowed to Wang Song, and said loudly in his mouth.

"Folks, get up!" Wang Song shouted loudly.

"The cause and process of the incident have been investigated. The 382 households that had no land and were exempt from paying taxes were exempt from taxes. 103 households with land but no tax paid taxes. Zhang Biao, Zhang Jun, Liu He and other 13 large households made up for the arrears of 110,000 yuan and were fined

The poor people involved in the case provided food supplies. ”

Wang Song nodded, Guo Yong stepped forward and said to the people below:

"According to the investigation of the Xuanfu Department and the Department of Integrity and Integrity, Zhao Ying, the governor of Cizhou, and Cao Ju, the governor of Fuyang, ignored the suffering of the people, accepted bribes, forcibly collected taxes, and provoked civil unrest. Zhao Ying, the governor of Cizhou, should be sentenced to death and confiscate all the gains from embezzlement. Cao Ju, the magistrate of Fuyang, was imprisoned for three years and confiscated all the gains from embezzlement. ”

"Long live Xianggong!"

The people cried out in the tsunami, and some people shed tears.

"It's just that killing people pays for their lives, and debts are repaid, which is justified. You stormed the Zhizhou Yamen and killed two dukes, who will take care of their wives and children? Therefore, the leaders involved in the case must also be punished by the law!"

The people kneeling below looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, and there was no speech for a long time.

In the middle of the night, a black-faced dealer man in his 30s with shabby clothes stood up from the crowd, hugged his fists and said: "Xianggong, officials, what you said is good." Killing pays for life, the villagers are all made by me, and I, Han Qi, am willing to bear it alone!"

A few peasant men also stood up next to him, and they said together: "Xianggong, what you did was fair, we are convinced." There are a few of us in this matter, please punish the public together. ”

A few old men kneeling in front of them kowtowed together, and your white-haired old man begged: "Han Qi, Zhang Hu, and Shan Bao are all bitter people who are old and young. Xianggong, we old guys are useless anyway, so you can kill us and spare them!"

Zhu Mengshuo said categorically: "If you break the law, how can you be taught by generations." You have to wait for Hugh to make a noise and see what the Xianggong does?"

Wang Song nodded, and the guards stepped forward and helped the people in front of them up.

"Folks, you were justified in this matter, but because of impulsiveness and recklessness, you became an unreasonable party."

Wang Song said loudly: "Reason travels all over the world, and it is difficult to move an inch without reason." If you have a grievance, as long as you hand over a letter to the Xuanfu Division, someone from the government will definitely deal with it. You have taken the most extreme approach and it has been self-defeating. ”

Guo Yong handed over a note, Wang Song looked at it, and said in a deep voice: "Fellow villagers, you stormed the yamen and killed two people. Han Qi, Zhang Hu, and Shan Bao are available in ?"

The three peasant men who stood up stepped forward together, knelt down and said, "Han Qi, Zhang Hu, and Shan Bao are here, please send them down!"

Wang Song said: "Xuanfu Si's investigation is very clear, the three of you gathered to fight against the government, although the way is violent, but it is excusable. Today, the three of you took the initiative to come here, and I will treat you as the three of you who voluntarily surrendered. According to the law, all three of you will be sentenced to five years in prison. Are you all convinced?"

Han Qi, Zhang Hu, and Shan Bao knelt down together, and Han Qi wept and said: "Xianggong, we are so excited by righteous indignation that we just want to get justice." The fairness is impartial, and we are convinced. ”

The big people on one side were all killed, and they were not satisfied.

Guo Yong waved his hand, and the guard stepped forward, took down the three of them, and stood aside.

"All the villagers who are present, the prison that Han Qisan and the three people are subjected to, you also have a share!"

Wang Song pointed to the people in the courtyard and solemnly took the matter.

"Han Qisan was imprisoned, and the food and clothing of their family in the past few years were taken care of by you and others, and the government supervised and implemented."

The people shouted long live, and they fell to their knees again.

In the third year of the Great Song Dynasty, all the local governments under the control of Lianghe and the Loyal and Righteous Army began a huge move to investigate Tian Fu.

In addition to those who have no land to rent and those who have no land to rent, they have collected more than 200 million yuan in taxes that have been evaded, and people from all over the world have returned to their hometowns.

The people cheered, the powerful and powerful households mourned all over the wilderness, and the people of the time exclaimed, although there was no uniform field, and there was no interest rate reduction, but the "Fangtian Uniform Tax Law" that had been hidden for many years was resurrected after Wang Anshi's death.
