Chapter 53 Where is the Law of Nations? under
"Lawlessness, lawlessness, the government does not know how to help the people and uphold justice, but instead helps the abuse. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Li Shuo said through gritted teeth.
"Hey, there's no way, who makes this the world now? The lower officials hide from the upper officials, the upper officials hide from the emperor, and the most suffering is us little people who have no ability, that is, we are bullied, who can avenge us? ”
"Don't worry, old man, I will help you solve this matter, and the rich man and the government will definitely not trouble you." Listening to the old man's words, he was frightened, and hurriedly said.
Li Shuo sneered and said, "Brother Song is really a warm-hearted person, we are all foreigners, what can we do." ”
Of course, Song Mingyi knew that Li Shuo was mocking him, but he couldn't refute this situation, so he could only sigh silently in his heart.
"Sir, don't worry about this matter, take advantage of the fact that those officials don't react, and leave quickly."
"So what are you going to do? Could it be that they really want to change land? Li Shuo hurriedly asked.
The old man sighed, looked at the field in front of him and said softly: "I can only change the land, otherwise I will beat people today, and I will kill people tomorrow." ”
After listening to the old man's words, Li Shuo had nothing to say, he felt that he had a long way to go, the government of Shaanxi had become a pot of porridge, all the officials were for personal gain, and no one cared about the people.
Li Shuo sat in the carriage back to the city, his face was full of indignation, if he was just a cloth cloth, even if he encountered this matter, he could only sigh and walk away, but at this time he was the governor of Shaanxi, he had the right to intervene in all the affairs of Shaanxi, large and small, he decided to investigate thoroughly, and carry out the three problems of defrauding the people, selling the land of military households, and controlling corruption together, and set off a new side of the Ming Dynasty in Chang'an, the ancient capital of thousands of years.
Li Shuo, who returned to Chang'an Mansion, didn't say a word to Song Mingyi, so he turned around and went back to the governor's yamen, at this time it was dark, and Li Shuo, who returned to the governor's yamen, immediately summoned people to call Cao Dezhang, the political envoy Huang Ketao, the punishment envoy Zhu Cheng, the commander of the guard Xu Mengchao, the commander of the Tongzhi Dai Shihui, and the governor of Chang'an Mansion Kong Shengyi and several people entered the palace to discuss matters.
After more than half an hour, the five people felt the governor's yamen.
Cao Dezhang, Huang Ketao, Zhu Cheng and Xu Mengchao, Dai Shihui didn't know what was going on, only the prefect Kong Shengyi's face was a little uneasy, and the county officials below had already reported to him what happened today, at that time, he was a little frightened, could it be that it was a subordinate of Lord Futai, but he thought it was impossible, and his heart was a little at ease, but when he felt that there was nothing to do, the governor Yamen came to say that the governor had summoned him, and the uneasiness deepened a lot.
The five people entered the hall and sat down according to the level of their positions, Kong Shengyi paid attention to Li Shuo's face, and when he saluted just now, he didn't notice any change in Li Shuo, and he still had a smile on his face.
Li Shuo chuckled and said, "Looking for a few adults today, I hope to be considerate of those who are presumptuous." ”
"Where my job is, Lord Futai speaks like this, but it makes me feel a little embarrassed." Cao Dezhang said with a smile.
"Even so, I won't be polite to you, I want to ask you, why did Meng Yuan die?" Li Shuo put away the smile on his face and said seriously.
"The Yuan Dynasty was built by barbarians, and the death of the country is clear to heaven." Huang Ketao also said.
Li Shuo nodded, looked at Zhu Cheng, and said slowly, "What does Master Zhu think?" ”
Zhu Cheng didn't want to speak, but when Li Shuo asked a question, he had to say, so he could only sort out his thoughts and said softly: "It should be a natural and man-made disaster, and the people of Li are suffering." In the end, the stone man stirred the Yellow River with one eye, and the world rebelled. ”
Li Shuo nodded and shook his head and said, "Yes, natural and man-made disasters are also one thing, but the most important thing, Lord Zhu didn't say it. ”
"What's the matter?"
"That is the rule of officials, the corruption of officials at the end of the Yuan Dynasty was extremely serious, and the distributed disaster relief food began to be deducted from the capital, and it came down from one level to the next, and there was nothing left in the hands of the people, they couldn't survive, and the only way was to rebel."
"Lord Futai is right, the things of the previous dynasty should be taken as a warning." Cao Dezhang spoke again.
"Of course, I think that all my colleagues are people who can clean themselves, but this official is not a saint, and it is inevitable that he will look away, and I want to ask Kong Shengyi, the prefect of Chang'an, Lord Kong, are you a loyal minister who is not afraid of shadows?" Li Shuo immediately drew the attention of the entire room to Kong Shengyi, in fact, he didn't know whether Kong Shengyi knew about today's events at all, but he was the prefect of Chang'an Mansion, whether he knew about this matter or not, he couldn't escape responsibility.
These words made Kong Shengyi break out in a cold sweat, and he hurriedly stood up and said, "Xiaguan doesn't know what Lord Futai means by this?" But did you do something that Lord Futai didn't like? ”
Li Shuo sneered: "I went out of the city today and saw a shocking thing. ”
After listening to Li Shuo's words, Kong Shengyi's face turned pale, Li Shuo saw the change in his face, and he understood in his heart that he was not far from ten, Kong Shengyi knew about this matter today, and it was even his order.
"What, what?" Kong Shengyi was already a little incoherent.
Li Shuo stood up and walked around the lobby twice.
"Today, the official and Lord Song went out of the city together, and they had no other intentions, but they saw that the people from the government were coercing the people. Even use a knife to cut people, if it weren't for the timely arrival of the official, our Shaanxi and the official would be famous, I can say the chapter of the imperial history, Shaanxi officials, oppressed the people, led to a mutiny among the people, Shaanxi Governor Li Shuo, supervision is unfavorable, and he should be punished and questioned. ”
Cao Dezhang's face was also a little unsightly, and he said in a low voice: "Lord Futai, why is the government coercing the people today. ”
Li Shuo glanced back at Cao Dezhang and said: "Speaking of which, it is another ugly matter, the military household sold the military land and the unknown rich man of Chang'an Mansion, because the field of Gejiazhuang separated the rich man's original field from the military field, so he wanted to exchange land with the people of Gejiazhuang, but the military field is full of wild grass, so how can the people make a living, the people do not agree, hum, this unknown rich man, but he is really powerful, the government officials went to more than 100 people, and a young man said one more sentence, and he was almost beaten to death, hahaha, On the second day after the official came to Shaanxi, he could encounter such a thing, so when the official did not come, did this kind of thing happen often? ”
Cao Dezhang stood up and said respectfully: "Lord Futai, don't be angry, since the matter has happened, we will investigate, now the most important thing is to know the identity of the rich man and which yamen the official belongs to, just this matter that Lord Futai said, the lower officials found three big cases from it, the first case, the case of the private sale of military fields, the second case, the case of coercing the people, the third case, and the case of unfavorable supervision. We should immediately go to the court, clarify the facts, investigate first, and never spare the perpetrators. ”
"It's still Lord Cao's reasoning, Lord Cao is handling this matter with me, and the official wants to take a look, how many people are there?" After Li Shuo finished speaking, he glanced at Kong Shengyi again.
Kong Shengyi lowered his head, still thinking about how he could get out of this matter.
"Master Kong, you are the prefect of Chang'an Mansion, and you know a little about the officials of Chang'an, and this official asks you, where does the western suburbs outside Chang'an belong to, and whose jurisdiction is it?"
"Lord Futai, the western suburbs of Chang'an Mansion are Hu County, and the county is a native of Wei."
"Someone."
Shen Tieniu, who had been waiting outside the door, heard the shout, hurriedly entered the house and bowed his head and said, "My subordinates are here." ”
"You take 500 soldiers to that county, call the county Cheng Wei Renjie, and let him call all the heads of their county when he comes. By the way, when Wei Renjie sends someone to shout, you must let people follow, if there is one less head catcher in Huxian County, I will ask you. ”
"Yes." Shen Tieniu shouted angrily, he was still thinking in his heart that he would have to make him suffer some hardships when he saw that head catcher.
After giving this order, Li Shuo looked at Cao Dezhang and said softly: "Ladies and gentlemen, everyone will return late today, I will let the kitchen prepare the meal, and today's dinner will be eaten at this official's place, let us wait for our Lord Wei Renjie together." ”
This time, no one answered, and everyone was bowing their heads and thinking deeply, considering what role they would play in this turmoil in order to maximize their own interests.
After Shen Tieniu went down, he picked up five hundred soldiers, and then left the city and went straight to Huxian.
