Chapter 756: Corrupt Officials
This one doesn't matter, and Feng Yunshan was taken aback by a look!
If it weren't for the foreshadowing of Wang and Chen in front of him, Feng Yunshan would have been mentally prepared, and he really didn't know what he was going to become. But even so, it made him suddenly change color, and he was a little frightened.
Huang Yukun's list is densely packed with several pages, and there are more than 80 people in total.
This really scared Feng Yunshan a lot, he never expected that in a short period of time, he had accumulated such a large number of corrupt officials and corrupt officials. Moreover, this is only the officials who have been seized, and how many have not been seized? Moreover, these corrupt officials are all officials above the level of deputy county magistrate.
"Shaft dares!" Feng Yunshan scolded angrily and threw the list in his hand heavily on the table in front of him.
On the list, the names of corrupt officials, their current official positions, and the general content of corruption are clearly written, and you can see that the evidence is conclusive at a glance. It was precisely because of this that Feng Yunshan regretted in his heart, and he was even more annoyed!
He couldn't figure out why these officials were so short-sighted? Could it be that they are officials for thousands of miles just for money, haven't they thought that this is the new dynasty of the Chinese Empire, and the promotion opportunities are unprecedented, and they are not thin to treat them, and the officials are not low.
Feng Yunshan couldn't help but glance at the list on the desk again, and closed his eyes painfully.
The top three are all people he knows, Jiang Youfu, Feng Zhenlin, and Zhang Suimou.
Jiang Youfu, the younger brother of Xiao Chaogui, the former king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, was originally surnamed Jiang, and was renamed Xiao Chaogui after being passed on to the family surnamed Xiao. After Xiao Chaogui was killed in Changsha, Jiang Youfu was taken care of by the high-level of the Heavenly Kingdom, and not only became the emperor of the country, but also became a commander with real power.
After the Tianjing City of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was occupied by the captive army, the generals of the Heavenly Kingdom surrendered one after another, and Jiang Youfu also took the initiative to lead the 2,000 Taiping Army soldiers who guarded the city gate to submit to the Chinese Empire. Unexpectedly, it has only been more than a year, and it has become corrupt.
And the second name of Feng Zhenlin, is his Feng Yunshan's tribesmen who did not come out of the five suits, soon after he left the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he came to join him, and he was his only relative in the army, although he did not explicitly point out that he should take care of him, but his subordinates attached great importance to it, and a year ago, he was promoted to the high position of the political envoy of Fujian.
And the third is Zhang Suimou, who is the staff of the righteous king Shi Dakai, since the beginning of the Jintian Uprising, he has been following Shi Dakai's side as a strategist, and has made great contributions to Shi Dakai's southern and northern wars. After Shi Dakai became Minister of National Defense, Zhang Suimou was assigned to the Ministry of National Defense as the director of the Logistics Department.
"Let's talk about the corruption of Jiang Youfu, Feng Zhenlin, and Zhang Suimou. I'd like to see how much appetite they have, ranking in the top three! Feng Yunshan laughed angrily.
"Yes! Your Majesty, after joint investigation by the Ministry of Justice and the Department of Special Services, Jiang Youfu has amassed a total of 650,000 saintly yuan through various corruption methods in just 14 months since he took office as the prefect of Taiping Prefecture. Huang Yukun played.
"Ahh A good Jiang Youfu, only a year, a small Taiping Mansion, can gather 650,000 yuan, it seems that let him be a prefect or wronged him, should let him be the Minister of Finance and Taxation or the Prime Minister of the Cabinet! Feng Yunshan was really angry, he was really surprised that this Jiang Youfu had the ability to be corrupt.
"Your Majesty, by co-opting the lord of the Taiping Mansion, he detained the officials together, and he had tens of thousands of Shengyuan just by swallowing up the Yulu of several counties under his control. Moreover, he also illegally collected more than 300,000 Shengyuan in the checkpoint tax on some traffic arteries in Taiping Mansion, all of which he took for himself. He also secretly sold all the military rations and cloths that were originally stored in the Taiping Mansion by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and obtained more than 200,000 holy yuan. It is even more common for others to sell official positions and accept bribes without permission. The 650,000 saint yuan was still recovered, and what he spent could no longer be recovered. ”
"It's good, it's amazing. If it weren't for Huang Aiqing, I really wouldn't have known that there were so many tricks to making money! Big moth, no wonder you can be the first greedy! In this case, I will give him a title, the first greedy in the empire! Jiang Youfu, hum, give me Ling Chi to death, otherwise it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart! If they don't kill the arrogance of these moths, they still think in their hearts that I am an ornament, and the law and discipline of the court have become a fictitious, and if this continues, the empire will be over! Feng Yunshan said viciously.
Huang Yukun's heart froze, he knew that the emperor was really furious! He had never seen the emperor so angry, Feng Yunshan had always given them the impression that he was amiable, but he didn't expect that this time these corrupt elements would provoke the emperor to be so angry, and they were unlucky and crashed into the crater.
"What about Feng Zhenlin and Zhang Suimou?" Feng Yunshan then asked, "Let's listen to their corrupt practices carefully, and I want to see how many means these bastards have." ”
Huang Yukun wanted to speak and stopped, Feng Yunshan was a little impatient, and shouted directly at Fan Ruzeng: "Ruzeng, you come to tell me about these two thieves!" ”
Fan Ruzeng looked at Huang Yukun helplessly, and saw that the latter did not say anything, so he had to step forward to relieve the siege, and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!" ”
"Let's talk about this Zhang Suimou first. He was very scheming, strategic, helped the righteous king to give advice, and repeatedly performed miraculous feats, which won the respect of the righteous king. According to the secret agents of our secret service department and the investigation of the Ministry of Justice, as early as when King Yi was still in Wuchang City, he repeatedly persuaded King Yi to break away from the kingdom of heaven and become independent, but at that time, King Yi had already submitted to His Majesty and was not moved by it. After King Yi became Minister of National Defense, Zhang Suimou tried to get King Yi to recommend him as the director of the Logistics Department, and searched all over the country to ask for funds for national defense logistics, and through withholding and distributing logistics materials such as the reserve army, he secretly sold the cloth in the reserve army to make military uniforms, and used inferior grain to pretend to be good grain to get the difference, and obtained a total of 230,000 holy yuan in dirty money. ”
"Smack!" Feng Yunshan slapped the table, he couldn't listen to the act of extending his black hand to the army. Originally, it was considered that this Zhang Suimou was a henchman of King Yi after all, and if he could open the net, he was very likely to show favoritism, but now this Zhang Suimou embezzled the logistics materials in the army, which is really unforgivable, which he resolutely cannot tolerate.
"This Zhang Suimou is really hateful! It's a shame for the righteous king. For the sake of following the righteous king for many years, if you start lightly, you will directly behead it to show the public! As for the righteous king, I will explain it to him. Feng Yunshan decided Zhang Suimou's life and death with a word.
Fu Shanxiang on the side also felt a thrill in his heart. She knew that the emperor was telling the truth, otherwise, according to the punishment of Jiang Youfu, Ling Chi's execution, and Zhang Suimou's beheading was already considered a mercy. However, Rao is like this, and he still beats a drum in his heart. After all, it's the emperor, who can object to life and death?
"As for Feng Zhenlin, Your Majesty, in fact, he has not done much evil, on the contrary, since he was promoted to the political envoy of Fujian, the people of Fujian have lived and worked in peace and contentment, and they have been peaceful, Fujian's grain and tea production has increased greatly, and the people's lives have been better than before. He was just greedy for a huge amount of money, but this money was originally what he wanted from the foreigners, and it could be regarded as a transaction. Fan Ruzeng introduced.
Feng Yunshan was a little puzzled by what he said, and said impatiently: "What is the reason?" Don't be foolish! ”
Fan Ruzeng's back was cold, and he was shocked, how could he forget what the emperor was angry about. I wanted to cover up a little bit for Feng Zhenlin, but it seems that it won't work. He could only say what he had learned: "Your Majesty, in fact, this is the case. More than half a year ago, there was a man named Robert. Through the consulate in Fuzhou, the British merchants of Fuqiong found the Yamen of the Fujian Political Secretary, and Feng Zhenlin, as the political envoy, could only come forward to meet the British businessmen. The British businessman not only bought a lot of tea, but also offered a high price for some small tea seedlings and tea seeds. Feng Zhenlin felt that the British businessman was polite and had received a lot of benefits, so he agreed. So, it was originally said that the British would purchase 10,000 tea seedlings for 80,000 Shengyuan, and later the British wanted to buy 40,000 tea seedlings, and Feng Zhenlin asked for 400,000 yuan. Feng Zhenlin swallowed 300,000 of them, and only took out 100,000 saints and handed them over to the treasury. ”
"Bastard! This Feng Zhenlin is really confused, stupid, and a thief who harms the country, what is it! Kill, kill, kill! ”
