After Ye Tiannan was pulled out, Qin Hui also sat back in his seat, he glanced at everyone, smiled lightly, and said: "You have also seen it, this official has always enforced the law in handling cases, and will never engage in favoritism, so if you haven't done anything wrong, you don't need to be afraid of this official at all." β
After a pause, he changed his words and said: "However, for those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, this official will not let go, if someone stands up and turns himself in now, this official may consider dealing with it lightly." β
The people sitting below here are all some old fritters, afraid of being afraid, and there is still concentration, how can they be light, you look at me, I look at you, it's really a grievance more than one by one.
I know that you will be like this. Qin Hui had a sneer in his heart, and said, "It seems that you are all clean officials who serve official duties in your hearts." β
"I don't know what the inspector means by this, we are all officials of the imperial court, although you are ordered to inspect Jiangnan, but this does not mean that you can insult us at will, please be cautious." The first person on the left looked straight at him, and his tone was very tough.
This person who is just thin and has two beards is the prefect of Yangzhou, Ding Jin.
Qin Hui turned his eyes and said with a smile: "Governor Ding's advice is good, and Qin keeps it in mind. In order not to make the same mistake again, Qin decided to use words on paper to talk to you. Come, and present the evidence of the crime. β
Evidence? Everyone tightened their faces and couldn't help but look at each other.
Soon, a scribe walked up with a stack of confessions.
Qin Hui took a sip of tea and said with a slight smile: "You must be thinking, you Qin Hui have been in prison, how can there be evidence of our embezzlement, this must be you deliberately scaring us." I wonder if the official guessed wrong? β
The crowd was silent.
Qin Hui said again: "It's all at this time, you can still be so calm, Qin admires it, it can be seen that you are much stronger than that Ye Zhifu." It's a pity. Your wishful thinking this time is wrong. Yes, this official has indeed been in the Chuzhou prison for a long time, but this official sent people to infiltrate the state capitals to investigate you officials a long time ago, of course, this is far from enough, many of you are smart people, how can you let people seize the handle, but, hehe, I think you will know if you have seen it. β
He said and said to the scribe, "First show him the evidence of the crime that belongs to Ding Zhizhou." β
The scribe immediately sent three pieces of white paper with black letters written on them to Ding Jin.
Until this time. This Ding Jin felt a little frightened, swallowed his saliva, slowly took the three pieces of paper, swept away this glance, his hands suddenly shook sharply, and a bead of sweat the size of a bean flowed down his cheeks, the more he looked down, the more sweat beads on his face, and his hands trembled even more. Wait until he finishes reading the second sheet. Suddenly, he fell to his knees and shouted, "Wronged, thisβthis is clearly a blame, oh." Someone must have deliberately framed the official, and the inspector was asked to be aware of the situation. β
Qin Hui smiled and said, "Governor Ding, since it is a false accusation. Why should you be so afraid? Besides, isn't this confession clear enough? If you feel that there is still a lack of physical evidence, the official only needs to ask people to go to the three Qinglou written on it to find out. You are a state prefect, you didn't even let go of the Qinglou, in just three years, you occupied three Qinglou, not only that, but you also forced more than 20 girls to make money for you, you are really ruthless. β
When Ding Jin heard this, his face was like ashes, his eyes were distracted, and suddenly, he kowtowed vigorously, making a banging sound, and shouted: "The patrol makes spare his life, the patrol makes spare his life." β
Qin Hui snorted lightly, ignored him, let him knock, glanced at the rest of the people, and said, "If you don't admit your guilt at this time, when will you wait?" Don't you want this official to send you the evidence of the crime one by one? If you still have a shred of conscience, this official may let you live. β
The sound is not loud, but it gives people an irresistible feeling, and the effect can be imagined in the face of this group of frightened birds.
"The lower official is guilty."
"The lower official is guilty, and please spare the lower official's life."
Knock knock!
After a while, the three of them knelt on the ground, and as soon as the three of them confessed, a domino effect immediately occurred, because a person can't be greedy, corruption is actually a system, and a few of them confessed, and those who were related to them naturally knew that they couldn't hide it, so seven or eight more kowtowed and confessed.
Qin Hui secretly glanced at Han Shizhong, a smile flashed in his eyes, he coughed lightly, and said, "Very good, very good, this official hopes to see your repentance in your confession." He waved his hand.
Several officials immediately gave them pen and paper.
At this point, those people only wanted to stay alive and confessed to their crimes.
After a stick of incense, those people had finished writing.
Qin Hui picked up their confessions and looked at them, and sighed: "I can't imagine that there are so many, this official is really unimaginable, how did the people in Jiangnan come to life, with these corrupt officials here, it is reasonable for Fang La to revolt." β
Speaking of this, he raised his head, first reported the names of five people, including Ding Jin, and then said loudly: "Immediately announce the crimes of these people to the world, and behead them at the corner of the street at noon tomorrow." β
The voice is extremely flat, without a trace of fluctuation, neither that kind of cheerfulness, nor compassion, as if he was going to the toilet.
"My lord, my lord, didn't you just say that you would give us a way to live?"
A dying roar.
Qin Hui said lightly: "The official just said maybe, not certainly, drag it out." β
"Yes."
"Your Excellency spares your life."
Another burst of crying.
Qin Hui had already looked down on this, and without even the slightest emotion, he said to those who were still kneeling on the ground: "A few of you can be exempted from capital crimes, but living crimes cannot be escaped, so we will be detained for the time being, and then make a decision." β
These officials who escaped death not only did not feel angry and depressed because they were going to prison, but secretly rejoiced, so the mind of corrupt officials is always so elusive, which may be called a kind of pathology.
Qin Hui suddenly said again: "Oh, I almost forgot, Jiangdu County is left behind." β
I saw a middle-aged man who loved to be chubby raised his head and looked at Qin Hui blankly, his face was blank.
Qin Hui smiled: "You are very lucky, someone above named you to escort you back to the capital." As he spoke, he asked Han Shizhong again: "General Han, can Huang Sanyuan be captured?" β
Han Shizhong nodded and said, "That person does have some skills and has raised a lot of people. But it's just a rabble, and they're now locked up in prison. β
"Very good, immediately order someone to escort the two of them back to the capital, and send more people."
Han Shizhong responded, and immediately ordered someone to take the still confused Zhixian County down. Qin Hui gently said a few words to the officials who were still sitting here, and then asked them to retreat first.
"This piece of land in the south of the Yangtze River is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger."
Qin Hui took those confessions, glanced at the shocking confessions on them, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Han Shizhong said with a smile: "The inspector is really resourceful, and he can lead to so many crimes with just one charge. β
It turned out that only Ding Jin was true of those crimes. The rest were all forged, and the three confessions were provided by Zhu Mian and his party.
Qin Hui smiled slightly: "General Han has won the award, they are just thieves, corrupt officials are actually very afraid of death, which is also their fatal weakness." If there is a person like General Han sitting here, even if I try my best, I am afraid I will not be able to succeed. β
Han Shizhong laughed and said: "The patrol envoy has won the award, if there is such a powerful figure as the patrol envoy, even if someone is hired to send money to Han." Han didn't dare to accept it. β
If Li Qi sees Han Shizhong and Qin Hui complimenting each other, then he will probably stare out his eyes, you must know that this is also a pair of old enemies.
Chen Dong suddenly said: "Inspector, that-Ye Tiannanββ? β
Qin Hui said lightly: "You are right. He will surely die. β
All three were stunned. In fact, they had already expected it, but they didn't expect Qin Hui to say it so bluntly.
Qin Hui glanced at them and said with a smile: "Chen Dong, you also said that Zhang Xiaoxiu disappeared three years ago. There is no way to find out, but it must have a lot to do with Ye Tiannan. β
Chen Dongdao: "Having said that, we really have no evidence. If we do this, maybe just like Ye Tiannan said, we are killing people with a knife, which is knowing the law and breaking the law. β
Qin Hui smiled: "Chen Dong, the gentleman is in righteousness, what is the next sentence?" β
Chen Dong was stunned for a moment and replied: "The villain is Yu Li. β
Qin Hui nodded and said: "The gentleman is righteous, this righteousness is righteousness, the villain is profitable, and this profit is small profit." What is a small profit, it is his own interests, the villain will always put his own interests first, and he is extremely narrow-minded, just like Ye Tiannan's villain, he will not remember how good you are to him, he will only remember how you hurt him. And like you, you will only take the lead in righteousness, distinguish between public and private, and judge things by facts, which is a true gentleman, but when a gentleman meets a villain, he will eventually suffer a villain. β
Han Shizhong frowned and said, "Isn't the patrol envoy afraid that this Ye Tiannan will retaliate against us in the future." "He is jealous and hateful, and there are countless souls under the knife, and he doesn't have much resistance to killing a person like Ye Tiannan.
Qin Hui nodded and said: "A talentless person like Ye Tiannan can sit in this position, obviously, he must have someone on it, if he spares his life today, who can guarantee that he will not turn over, if one day we fall into his hands, I am sure that he will not let us go, no one can predict what the situation will be in the future, in this case, only by cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, we can avoid future troubles, why should we exchange a trace of forgiveness for a potential danger in the future." The same is true for everyone else, and when I come here, I will do everything in my power to eliminate a potential threat. β
As he spoke, he let out another long sigh and said, "That's how officialdom is! In fact, from the moment we took this errand, there was only one feasible path in front of us, either you die or I die. Chen Dong and Ouyang, I know that the two of you have quite a lot of opinions about my style of doing things, but it doesn't matter, everyone has their own ambitions, I will not force you to accept my opinions, and vice versa, and I will not waver because of you. But I still want to remind you that if you really want to embark on the road of official career, first of all, you must understand what officialdom is and how to survive in officialdom. However, the only way to survive is to destroy the enemy, including potential enemies. In officialdom, there is no distinction between a gentleman and a villain, only victory and defeat, like Wang Anshi, Sima Guang and others. β
Ouyang Che argued: "If this is the case, then what is the difference between us and them? β
Qin Hui frowned and said, "Don't you still understand? The difference is that we win and they lose. β
Ouyang Che opened his mouth slightly, hesitated, and said, "If he is changed to an economic envoy, will he be the same?" βγ
Qin Hui was stunned, pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Maybe it will, maybe it won't, I don't know." But we can't look at things from the perspective of adults, because we are not qualified enough. Whether Ye Tiannan exists or not, for adults, there is no threat at all, but for us, the Chuzhou prison has already explained a very good thing, if this Ye Tiannan is not as timid as a mouse, or if there is no general Han's thousands of soldiers to deter us, do you think we will be spared? βγ
Han Shizhong saw that the three of them often quarreled along the way, and he was also extremely distressed, and he didn't understand why the economic envoy arranged for Chen Dong, Ouyang Che and Qin Hui to do things together, but as everyone knows, Li Qi actually didn't want to, but there was no way, because this was a test that Cai Jing gave to Chen Dong and Ouyang Che. A round and said: "We can't argue for a shameless villain like Ye Tiannan, or what should we do next?" β
Qin Hui smiled and said what everyone in the world loves to do, "Spend money." (To be continued......)
