Chapter 561: Ming Zheng Punishment
A high platform was erected in the square in front of the yamen of the Daimyo's Mansion, and a young man was tied to a pillar in the middle of the platform.
This young man is not Zhang Ziwen, but his subordinate Ma Zai, it turns out that Zhang Ziwen temporarily changed his route to Taiyuan, not to avoid Ye Xun on purpose.
Ye Xun has ordered Xichang and Jinyiwei to arrest Zhang Ziwen all over the country, and he has also issued a death order, if he resists, he will be killed!
Ma Zai had already recruited the White Lotus Sect, so Ye Xun would not tolerate him.
At the same time, Ye Xun ordered Yuan Yingtai to write to various places again, and it was necessary to abolish the Ma Zheng that worked hard and hurt the people, and if anyone else oppressed the people under this banner, the law would be corrected on the spot, and there was no need to hear it.
Ye Xun just wants to use this attitude to tell everyone that no one wants to do evil, and neither can the queen mother's brother.
Before issuing the order to arrest Zhang Ziwen, Ye Xun had already sent a letter to Baozhu, along with the young man's confession, with Ye Xun's understanding of Baozhu, Baozhu would support him.
And with the issuance of the order, after knowing that Ye Xun personally arrived at the Daimyo's Mansion, Fang Zhenru also sent an inspector of the imperial history, and the people from all over the country came to complain in an endless stream.
I don't know, I was shocked when I asked, in just over a month, dozens of families were forced to die, if they were allowed to develop, I don't know what the consequences would be!
With the increase in the number of complaints, Ye Xun did not try anymore, and directly sentenced the young man named Wang Zhong to Ling Chi, and the daimyo prefect escorted him back to Beijing to wait for participation.
Of course, there is not only one daimyo prefect who aids in the abuse, which requires the imperial historians to check slowly, and they will never let go of one anyway.
After the news of the execution spread, people came from all over to watch the execution, and some even brought all the spiritual seats in their homes, just so that the spirits of their relatives in heaven could see the great revenge.
When the hour came, the executioner stripped the prisoner of his clothes and then tightened the prisoner with a fishing net, so that the flesh of the prisoner would be strangled out of the gap in the net.
The executioner picks up the knife and cuts it first from the eyelids of the prisoner...
The prisoner's mouth has been blocked, and he can only make a painful "whining" sound, and as the flesh on his body is slashed by a sharp knife, the applause from the audience is also higher than a louder, which shows that there is too much hatred in the hearts of the people.
Ye Xun and Xu Tai, the imperial historian from the capital, stood on the other side of the high platform, looked at it for a while, and then returned to the palace.
Li Zhiwen has returned to Zhending, the new prefect has not yet arrived, and the government affairs here will be temporarily taken care of by Xu Tai.
After returning to the hall and sitting down, Ye Xun said to Xu Tai: "The aftermath must be done well, I have informed Zhang Shangshu that there will be special silver allocated to compensate the people."
"In addition, when you inspect various places, the head of the West Factory will accompany you, no matter who is involved, you must investigate to the end, and never tolerate it"
Xu Tai nodded and said: "Father-in-law, don't worry, this matter seems to be ordinary, but the nature is extremely bad, and the lower officials will never let go of any outlaw."
"As you said, the biggest problem is that the local government does not report it, and the reason why this prince let Hu Stalltou follow you is to ask him to support you in intelligence."
"When I go back, my father will also ask Lord Fang to send more people to inspect the imperial history, my father believes that what happened in Shanxi and Henan is by no means an isolated case, while investigating the remnants of the White Lotus, the court should also pay more attention to the lives of the people, the reason why the people will risk losing their heads to believe in the White Lotus Sect, the problem cannot be blamed on the people, we also have to find the problem in ourselves"
In Ye Xun's heart, whether he believes in God or in monsters, there are no more than two kinds of people, one is really idle and has nothing to do, and his heart is empty and needs to find spiritual sustenance.
The other is forced by life, and then used by someone with a heart, and finally becomes a tool in the hands of others.
Therefore, this time the imperial history inspected the place, not only to check the officials, but also to pay more attention to the people's livelihood, and it is a long-term solution to treat the symptoms and cure the root cause.
Hu Jiucheng is the head of the West Factory, but he was sent out by Ye Xun to inspect the place, and it cannot be said that this is a disguised punishment for him by Ye Xun, because no matter what happens, it is wrong to conceal it.
Xu Tai also thought deeply of Ye Xun's words, and after studying other aspects with Ye Xun, he said goodbye and left.
At this time, the noise outside the government office has not subsided, obviously the execution has not been completed, and such a delicate work cannot be done by one person, otherwise the executioner will be exhausted to death if the prisoner does not die.
As soon as Xu Tai left, Hu Jiucheng walked in, and he didn't dare to complain at all about Ye Xun's disposition, because deep in his heart, it was too normal for a person of Ye's father-in-law's status to do something illegal and undisciplined in his family, and there was no need to make such a fuss.
Hu Jiucheng was so careful that he could guess without asking Ye Xun, and he didn't poke him at the moment, he asked about the situation outside, and suddenly the tone of his words changed, and he said, "Do you know what I said to Sun Dong when I went to Liaodong this time?" ”
Hu Jiucheng was subconsciously stunned, and then shook his head.
"Han Ping is one of the earliest people who followed me, dealing with him, I am really sad, I told Sun Dong, life is getting better and better, the power in the hands of the brothers is getting heavier and heavier, some people will inevitably have some careless and paralyzed thoughts, we are all good brothers who were born and died, I really don't want anyone to follow in the footsteps of Han Ping"
Hu Jiucheng is also an extremely smart person, and when he heard Ye Xun say this, he didn't understand the meaning of Ye Xun's words.
Hurriedly leaned over and knelt down, lowered his head and said: "The subordinates know that they are wrong, and the father-in-law can rest assured that this incident will never happen again."
Ye Xun didn't let Hu Jiucheng get up immediately, but just stared at him quietly for a moment before saying, "Go!" I don't want to hear any more about the White Lotus Sect's troubles."
"The subordinates understand, and the subordinates retire"
Unconsciously, Hu Jiucheng was already sweating, if Ye Xun scolded him a few words and kicked him twice, he would not feel this way, it is precisely this kind of silent coercion that is the most uncomfortable.
The extermination of the White Lotus Sect has always been valued by Ye Xun, but it still cannot be cut off, although there is a reason why the White Lotus Sect is hidden, but it must not be ruled out that the reason for the disadvantage of his subordinates is not good.
Although Ye Xun did not get angry directly, as a close subordinate, how could Hu Jiucheng not feel Ye Xun's silent anger.
From the moment he stepped out of the gate of the mansion, Hu Jiucheng had secretly sworn that if he couldn't exterminate the White Lotus Sect this time, he would never come back, and he would not have the face to see Ye Xun again.
Ye Xun was a leader in his previous life, and he knew that he couldn't be too indulgent with his subordinates, otherwise he could only be cocooned.
The incident that happened in Shanxi and Henan can only be said to be an episode of Ye Xun's southward journey, but it also made Ye Xun wake up.
Ye Xun could feel that there must still be a big fish hidden in the court, otherwise this matter would not have been concealed for so long, it was this person who used his energy to suppress this matter violently, the purpose was to completely stink himself and the orb.
But who is this person? ...
