Chapter 603 Exiles

Zhu Hongsan was a corrupt official in his previous life, and as the director of the most powerful demolition and relocation office in the township, he did everything from eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and many wives and daughters of demolition households were harmed by Zhu Hongsan. However, Zhu Hongsan did not mean to give preferential treatment to the corrupt officials of his predecessors at all in this era, and he was ruthless in cleaning up the criminal officials under him, and his methods were not inferior to the ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Hongsan also invented the idea of letting the convict's colleagues go to the scene to watch the execution, and at the same time letting the convict's colleagues go to prostitute the convict's daughter, in the name of receiving traditional education, this kind of dirty method can only Zhu Hongsan can think of.

However, although Zhu Hongsan's methods were dirty but very effective, the county Cheng, the chief bookkeeper and others thought that they were going to be beheaded, and their wives and daughters were going to be ruined, the county Cheng was so frightened that he trembled, and the master bookkeeper was even more frightened to pee his pants.

Qian Yiai saw the virtue of his subordinate officials, sighed and said: "Zhang Xiancheng, don't worry, your daughter is only twelve years old, and this official will be careful when she goes to prostitution!" Master He heard that you just got a daughter a few years ago, and you are going to enter the teaching department at a young age, which is really pitiful! ”

Zhang Xiancheng heard Qian Yiai say this, he couldn't hold on anymore, sat on the ground with weak knees, and cried: "Lord Zhixian, help me and wait!" Zhang Xiancheng knew that Qian Yiai was born noble, and his father was still an old cabinet minister, and now only he could save himself.

Qian Yiai saw that the opportunity had come, just now the board was beaten, and now the carrot is here.

"It's not impossible to save you, you tell you what happened in detail!"

The more Qian Yiai listened, the more frightened he became, these guys really deserved to be killed, and they dared to sell relief grain to grain merchants in the city at the price of one stone and one silver dollar, and then the three hundred and sixty people in the county divided 12,000 silver dollars privately according to their rank. Zhang Xiancheng received the most, with 2,000 silver dollars, 1,500 silver dollars for the main book, 1,000 silver dollars for the classics, 500 silver dollars for each of the masters of the six rooms, and even the officials of the third class each received 20 to 30 silver dollars.

Qian Yiai looked at these guys for the first time and felt that the emperor was torturing them, just outside the city, there were still 50,000 or 60,000 homeless people who couldn't eat, but these guys sold all the life-saving food, and they really deserved to be killed. However, Qian Yiai will still need this gang of killers to work in the future, so he can only deal with them for them.

"Get up! Solve the things you have committed by yourself, and no matter if you steal or rob them, you must solve the matter before dawn the day after tomorrow, so that the emperor can find out anything about it, so that the official can also ensure your safety, do you know? ”

Everyone listened to Qian Yiai's willingness to speak for himself, and they were overjoyed, Qian Yiai's backstage was very hard, as long as he promised to save himself, his life would be fine.

Zhang Xiancheng hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, we will definitely raise food in these two days, and there will be no emperor to see the details, please rest assured!" ”

Qian Yixin hated these guys very much, waved his hand and told them all to get out, and then returned to the back house to see Liu Fangyuan.

Liu Fangyuan saw that Qian Yiai's expression was not good, so he knew that he was right, and asked, "How is it?" Is it the same as what the old man said? ”

Qian Yiai nodded and said: "The situation is even worse than what Brother Wendu said, these guys actually sold all the 12,000 stone grain, and the money and property were privately divided!" ”

Liu Fangyuan said with a smile: "Hehe, Zigao now knows what these officials are!" ”

Qian Yiai sighed, shook her head and didn't speak.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was March 6, the time set by the emperor, and on this morning, Qian Yiai got up early, put on his official uniform and rushed to the noon gate, and today he will welcome the emperor to Shangyuan and Jiangning counties under the leadership of the political envoy Zhu Guoshou and the prefect Ma Jingyuan.

In ancient times, it was very troublesome for the emperor to travel, and he had to have tens of thousands of people, but it was out of Beijing, and there was no need to prepare like that in the capital, but it was also necessary to mobilize 1,000 Jinyi guards, and 3,000 people from a regiment of the Praetorian Guard Division to protect the emperor, and at the same time, the streets along the way also needed to be closed to avoid someone assassinating the emperor.

Zhu Hongsan finished handling government affairs in the palace, Li Chengen came to report that all preparations had been made, and officials of Jiangsu Province were waiting outside the noon gate.

Zhu Hongsan nodded, and took the crown prince Zhu Hai to board Luan and prepare to leave the palace.

Zhu Hongsan, as a petty bureaucrat in later generations, greeted the higher-level inspection team many times, and every time he saw various officials majestically sitting in various high-end cars to inspect, he was very envious in his heart, and he wanted to do the same when he became the emperor this time.

Out of the noon gate, Jiangsu political envoy Zhu Guoshou, press inspection envoy Song Kejiu and other provincial high-ranking officials greeted at the door.

Zhu Hongsan saw Zhu Guoshou and smiled: "Old Zhu, how is it?" Do you dare to let me go to the field to check it out? ”

Zhu Guoshou knew his own affairs well, but he couldn't agree to this point, so he could only stubbornly say: "The minister has a clear conscience, of course you can ask the emperor to take a look!" ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded, returned to his imperial chariot, and prepared to leave.

Zhu Guoshou saw the emperor go in, called Ma Jingyuan and asked, "How is it?" How well are you prepared? ”

"Don't worry, Lord Zhu, everything is ready to stop, go to that county first?"

Zhu Guoshou thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Shangyuan County first!" ”

The city wall of Nanjing is divided into outer Guo and inner Guo, and the outer Guo is not a complete city wall, but a stone wall built according to the mountain, which has lost its defensive significance after hundreds of years of wind and rain. Therefore, between the outer and inner Guo, it has completely become a large wasteland. The camp camps of Shangyuan County were built outside the Jinchuan Gate and the Zhongfu Gate, and they were lined up along the moat in turn, which was five or six miles long.

Now the camp of the homeless people has already been prepared, the front door is lined with yellow sand, and the road is full of soldiers with loaded guns. At the gate of the camp of the homeless people, thousands of homeless people knelt on the ground to welcome the arrival of the emperor.

When Zhu Hongsan arrived at the place and Zhu Hai went out of the imperial chariot, everyone except the soldiers standing guard saw the emperor in bright yellow clothes appear, and quickly knelt on the ground to salute and shouted long live!

Zhu Hongsan looked around, the first few rows of kneeling homeless people were obviously much stronger, probably singled out, Zhu Hongsan had met many leaders in later generations, and he was not sure how to fool the inspection door, and now he saw that the means of the magistrate were not broken, but he just asked: "What about Shangyuan Zhi County?" ”

Qian Yiai heard the emperor tell him to come out and stand in front of the emperor, bowed down and said: "Shangyuan Zhixian Qian Yiai has seen Your Majesty!" ”

Zhu Hongsan forgot that Qian Yiai was selected by himself as Shangyuan Zhi County, and only remembered when he saw Qian Yiai, and said: "It turned out to be a prodigy of Qian!" Good! Tell me about the situation of the homeless camp! ”

Qian Yiai originally thought that the emperor would come over to go through the motions and return to the palace after condolences to the representatives of the displaced people, but he didn't expect the emperor to ask about the situation. Qian Yiai is a county magistrate, and he doesn't know what the situation of the displaced people is, so he can't help but stand in place and don't know what to say.

Seeing that Qian Yiai didn't speak, the prefect Ma Jingyuan hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Qian County Commander has just arrived and doesn't know the situation yet, so it's better to find the ambassador who manages the Liumin camp to introduce him!" ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded, and a fat guy with a foot of three hundred pounds on the side ran over, knelt down and shouted: "Long live the villain Shangyuanliu private ambassador Zou Shikai!" ”

Zhu Hongsan looked at the fat man and said, "Looking at your appearance, you know that the homeless people eat very well, let's talk about the situation!" ”

Zou Shikai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!" There are more than 68,000 displaced people in the camp, most of whom are young and strong, with more than 44,000 people, who go to work in the factory by Xuanwu Lake every day, ensuring that they have one meal of porridge every day, and the rest of the old and weak eat two porridges in the camp! ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "Take me to see how the food is?" ”

Zou Shikai hurriedly got up and led the emperor and various ministers to the shack set up outside the camp camp, where there were more than a dozen cauldrons, and porridge and water were boiling inside. Zhu Hongsan walked in and looked at it with a wooden spoon, in addition to rice porridge, there were sweet potato pieces, after all, it was really unaffordable to feed these people with rice, and half of the food supplied to these displaced people was rice transported from Annan and half was sweet potatoes produced in Guangdong, that is, potatoes.

"What do you eat?" Zhu Hongsan put down the wooden spoon and turned around and asked.

"Now I don't have a lot of green and yellow, I mainly eat some wild vegetables, and I can supply salted cabbage once every half month!"

Zhu Hongsan nodded, it's not bad, after all, these people are old and weak, and it would be good to feed them.

Zhu Hongsan came to the representative of the displaced people, picked an old man and asked, "Old man, where are you from?" ”

The old man hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Long live Hui, little old man from Shandong, it's been two years since I came to Nanjing!" ”

"Who else is in your family?"

"There is only one son left in the little old man's family, and everyone else drowned while crossing the Yangtze River! Xiao Lao'er's son works in the factory every day, eats better, and can eat meat every ten days! ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded, turned his head and said to Zhu Guoshou and other civil officials: "Very good, I am very satisfied, you Jiangsu Province is doing very well!" ”

After receiving the emperor's praise, Zhu Guoshou and other civil officials breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and it seemed that this time they were fooling the past.

When Zhu Guoshou was relaxing, he thought that the emperor separated the soldiers on the side of the road and took the prince and the two deep into the camp camp.

Ma Jingyuan was scared half to death, the camp was full of sewage, and he was not prepared at all, and the emperor saw the flaw and asked for his own life!

Ma Jingyuan caught up with the emperor behind and said, "Your Majesty, the air here is dirty, it's better to go to Jiangning County to have a look!" ”

Zhu Hongsan knew what these guys had in mind, Zhu Hongsan used to fool the leaders, so he didn't know the methods of these officials. The old man spoke forcefully just now, and at first glance he was looking for a to, maybe he was still dressed as a county official.

Zhu Hongsan pushed Ma Jingyuan away, took Zhu Hai into the camp of the homeless camp, and came to a shack that was not tall, Zhu Hongsan stretched out his hand and lifted the grass curtain at the door, and a smell came to his nose.

Zhu Hai Jinzhi Yuye had seen this there, and he was squatted on the side by the smell and vomited, Zhu Hongsan had seen the miserable situation of the homeless people before, so he didn't react. Zhu Hongsan stood at the door and saw in the sunlight that there were more than a dozen people inside, lying in the grass pile on the ground.
