Chapter 183: The Brain Circuits of Corrupt Officials
"How are you doing...?"
Li Zhan sat in the back office, Ying Lao, Ouyang Ye, Gao Hu, Tapir, Changkong... Standing in front of Li Zhan in a row.
"Hui Gongzi... All the tasks have been completed according to your instructions. Shadow Elder bowed slightly.
"Have you found 100,000 quintals of grain?"
After Li Zhan asked, Ouyang Ye took a step forward and said, "It's all found, in Liu Tingshan's granary, but after tonight, Liu Tingshan has already prepared a big ship to transport the grain away." ”
"This is the back road to cut off the prince...!" Li Zhan smiled and shook his head.
"That Cui Rin is even more ruthless than the previous Cui Xu... I don't give the prince a chance at all.... Gao Hu said slightly.
"It's okay...!" Li Zhan laughed: "In this way, I don't feel guilty, so that's it... At night, we are ready to move, we have to kill with one blow and catch the opponent off guard. ”
"Yes...!"
.............................
The time is 20 o'clock in the evening, which is the hour.
At the gate of the government office in Hongtong County, Li Chengqian was heroic, riding a black horse and shouting at his guards and three thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty: "Gu was ordered by his father to take charge of Hongtong County, originally Gu thought that the squires of Hongtong County would work together with Gu after the incident of Zhou Shiren to govern Hongtong County, after all, this is also their hometown, and the people who were affected by the disaster are also their villagers."
It's just a big mistake, some of the squires in Hongtong County are simply chaotic parties, how can these chaotic parties be for the good of Hongtong County, they just want Hongtong County to get worse and worse.
They don't care about the villagers... You say... Should such a squire rebel be killed? ”
"Damn it... Damn it... Damn it...! ”
Looking at the soldiers whose momentum had been raised, Li Chengqian smiled slightly: "Okay... Then today, Lone will take you to talk about the squire in Hongtong County, and the party will be copied. ”
"Yes...!"
Morale was like a rainbow, Li Chengqian waved his sword, and the army was marched out, and the target was the Cui family in Hongtong County.
At this time, the Cui family didn't know that their catastrophe was coming, and the Cui family at this time had already entered the time to rest, and the candlelight was flickering in the corridor.
Several family members carried lanterns and patrolled the courtyard of the Cui family's house.
In the room, Cui Rin is doing what many people are doing with his favorite concubine.
Cui Rin didn't have time to enjoy all this calm, when suddenly, the sound of a huge door being smashed sounded.
"Bang...!" The sound was very loud, the sound of a giant tree slamming the door open.
As soon as the sound sounded, there were patrolling family members who went to check, but when they came to the door, almost all of them knelt down, because they were thousands of soldiers, armed with bows and arrows, spears... stared at the Cui family with neat steps.
Although the Cui family is brave, they are not stupid, and they are a fart compared to well-trained soldiers, so it is wisest to choose to surrender.
After the family knelt down, the Cui family's stewards rushed out in the second wave, compared with the family ding, the stewards were still horizontal enough, and they scolded as soon as they came up, but just before they had time for the second round of scolding.
"Kill...!" Behind Li Chengqian, a fierce voice sounded.
A row of feather arrows shot out without hesitation, this was the shot of Li Chengqian's East Palace guards.
Several stewards of the Cui family fell in a pool of blood.
"Hou Guangliang...!" Li Zhan's voice sounded!
"The last general...!" Hou Guangliang immediately bowed.
"Sodong Courtyard! Blocked, no mercy will be forgiven! ”
"Yes...!" Hou Guangliang waved his hand and immediately led a team of soldiers to the east courtyard.
"Duhe...!"
"Humble in the world...!"
"Soxiyuan...! Blocked, no mercy...! ”
"Yes!" Duhe was also ordered to leave.
Li Zhan gave the order slowly, while Li Chengqian stood beside Li Zhan with his sword in his hand, looking around with a protective posture, and it was probably less than a quarter of an hour.
Hou Guangliang came back, holding a person, none other than Cui Rin, followed by the thing in his hand, which made Li Chengqian shocked, it was actually a dragon robe.
"You really want to rebel...?" Li Chengqian looked at Cui Rin and shouted in shock.
"No... No, I never thought of rebelling, Your Highness, I was wronged, someone wanted to wronged me. At this time, Cui Rin also showed a terrifying expression, and shouted loudly, because the rebellion would punish the nine clans.
But just after Cui Rin shouted that he was wronged, he heard Du He rush back happily, and shouted happily while rushing: "Found it, found it, all the 500,000 guan allocated by the imperial court to Hongtong County have been found." ”
This sentence was like a thunderbolt from the blue, splitting Cui Rin, who had just finished shouting injustice, to the point that he was completely incomplete.
"Okay...!" Li Chengqian shouted angrily: "You still dare to shout injustice... You have embezzled all the funds for the relief of the imperial court into your own home, I think it is just for your military expenses, wronged, where have you been wronged.
Someone's coming... Drag me down...! ”
It's just that Li Chengqian hadn't said anything yet, and Li Zhan said loudly at this time: "Lock it up and wait for Your Majesty to deal with it." ”
"Big brother...!" Li Chengqian looked back at Li Zhan.
Li Zhan said to Li Chengqian: "Your Majesty should be the master of the rebellion, and the prince should not overstep his bounds, oh... By the way, although you can't cut this Cui Rin, you can torture where the Cui family's other military expenses for rebellion are, as well as the whereabouts of the 100,000 quintals of grain allocated by His Majesty, I believe that the grain allocated by His Majesty must still be in Hongtong County. ”
"I see... Hum... I'm going to let this Choi Rin spit out everything he knows. Li Chengqian stared at Cui Rin and snorted.
After that, Li Chengqian only used a while of torture to pry Cui Rin's mouth open, and the grain allocated by the imperial court was indeed still there, and it was all in Liu Tingshan's granary.
Li Chengqian immediately returned to Hongtong County with great momentum and copied all the grain in Liu Tingshan's granary.
A full 100,000 quintals, to be honest, Li Zhan actually knew about this result for a long time, but he still felt very shocked, these families were really too greedy.
In fact, you can be greedy, but you must at least keep some of it and let the people live well, Li Zhan can't understand why corrupt officials from ancient times to the present have to do their best to fish.
Some people will definitely say, this corrupt official you wrote is so stupid, why don't you let go of the money in your hand, it's not very good to give the prince a favor for the prince with this 100,000 loads of grain.
yes... What you say is not wrong at all, but corrupt officials think differently from you.
Tang Dynasty Yuanzai... He is a big corrupt official, this guy has a habit, he is keen on building a lot of buildings, building houses, and this is also an indispensable part of the trilogy of all corrupt officials. The house he built actually occupied three squares of Daning, Anren and Changshou, and there were 109 squares in the capital of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, and Yuan Zai accounted for three of them, which shows the large scale and many buildings.
He also built a garden-style private house in Luoyang, the eastern capital, which was converted into a royal garden after confiscation. But the most amazing thing is that there are 800 stone pepper in the items that were raided. According to some calculations, one stone weighed 79,320 grams in the Tang Dynasty, so 800 stones is 64 tons now.
Are you greedy like this, aren't you just looking for death, and you have no scruples at all?
Chen Ziqiang, the right prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty... This guy is even more powerful, he sells officials "above board", he relies on his qualifications as a teacher of Han Guan, a powerful person, to bend the law and do everything. Anyone who asked for an official position, he sent someone to negotiate the price, and after everything was done, he would confer the official position "above board". When the magistrate sends an official document to the capital, the letter must be marked with the words "how much something is offered together". Anything that is not written, it is not opened at all.
Are these people stupid?
Therefore, the idea of a corrupt official is different from you, and you can't think from his point of view.
