Zhang Dian took Yan Jidao and came to Xingyuan, along the way, Yan Jidao was trembling, "Brother Zihou, what is this for?" Are you going to let me go? ”

"Released you?" Zhang Dan smiled, "I said Brother Xiaoshan, more than a dozen lives, so many big unjust cases, who dares to let you go?" To let you come over is to cut off your head! ”

"Ahh Yan sat down directly, and Zhang Dan's hand was quick and grabbed his neck.

"Pretend to be cowardly, come with me!"

Yan Jidao collapsed directly, "Brother Zihou, if you want to kill someone, you can kill it, you can't be humiliated!" ”

Zhang Dian didn't know what to say, "Stupid, the prince is asking you to look at the faces of those people, and you have to be a ghost when you die!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Dian grabbed Yan a few times, entered the line through the side door, came to the lobby, and arranged for him to sit behind the screen next to him.

When he sat down, Wang Ning'an's side also began to ascend.

The first to be summoned in was the prefect of Xuzhou, this person's name is Song Minqiu, he was born in Hanlin, started with literature, once repaired the Tang book, and also repaired the "Tang Dynasty Imperial Decree Collection", "Chang'an Zhi", tired of moving to Longtu Pavilion straight bachelor, repair the living note, and govern the system.

Just looking at his qualifications, if nothing else, he can be promoted to the rank of chief executive, and by staying up for years, he can even climb to the high position of prime minister.

It's just that with the beginning of the change, the court of the Great Song Dynasty changed the rules, and those who didn't have any real skills couldn't sit still at all, Song Minqiu was kicked out of the capital five years ago, and as a bachelor of Longtu Pavilion, he knew the affairs of Xuzhou.

Although he lost the opportunity to dominate the world, Song Minqiu is still very arrogant, even in the face of Wang Ningan, there is not too much groveling, in his eyes, your kid is just suddenly expensive, compared to the old man, it is still worse than the world!

He just bowed his hand, said a few words of greeting, and sat directly next to Wang Ningan, not polite at all.

"Lord Song, this is not your seat, your place is there!"

Wang Ningan pointed to the bar in the middle of the hall, and suddenly Song Minqiu was not happy, you Wang Ning'an, don't go too far, even if the old man goes to Jinluan Palace, there will be a seat!

You let the old man sit in the prisoner's position, it's too much of a deception!

Song Minqiu stood up, his face gloomy, not convinced at all.

"Lord Song, there is such a big case under your rule, as the prefect, isn't there a little fault?"

Song Minqiu squeezed out a smile, "Okay, since the prince said so, then the lower official is willing to admit his guilt, please deal with it!" After saying that, he turned around to leave.

"Stop!" Wang Ningan slapped the table suddenly, "Lord Song, this king is here with a holy decree, officials below the third grade, you can cut it first and then play!" ”

Song Minqiu trembled in his heart, unfortunately, he happened to be a third product!

This Song Da was so angry that he calmed down for a long time, he went straight to the chair and sat down.

"Since the prince has determined that the lower official is guilty, then the lower official has nothing to say, the prince just asks!"

Yan Jidao behind the screen was still a little frowned, he actually admired Song Minqiu, the old man was well educated, and he liked to carry the latter, especially he liked to collect books.

Yan Jidao exchanged many rare books from him, and it was really unfair for such a respected minister to be treated like this.

Yan Jidao thought in his heart, but he didn't dare to speak out, so he listened to Wang Ning'an continue to ask...... "Lord Song, the imperial court ordered the land requisition, and it should have been the local officials who were responsible, why didn't you personally participate, but handed it over to the magistrate Yan Jidao, why is this?" ”

Song Minqiu was stunned for a moment, and said in a sullen voice: "The old man is not in good health, he is also old, he can't do it, Yan Jidao is in the prime of life, let him do it, it's just right." ”

"Then after the accident, the bloody case in several villages, so many people died, when did you know about it?"

"The old man knew about it half a month ago, and after the old man knew, he immediately wrote to the court, and imprisoned Yan a few times, waiting for the court to fall, and the prince came."

Wang Ningan smiled faintly, "So, you Lord Song don't know from beginning to end, it's all Yan Jidao's doing?" ”

Song Minqiu raised his eyebrows, "If the prince thinks that the old man is suspected of dereliction of duty, the old man is willing to accept the guilt!" ”

"Is it just a dereliction of duty?" Wang Ning'an raised his voice an octave.

Song Minqiu gritted his teeth, "There is no excuse for the crime that you want to add, if the prince wants to open up a few ways for Yan and put the blame on the old man's head, the old man has nothing to say!" ”

"Okay, what a hob meat!"

Wang Ningan chuckled twice, "Song Minqiu, the rules of the imperial court, for this land acquisition, the method of replacement should be preferred, supplemented by economic compensation, why is there no land in Xuzhou that is ready to be replaced, could it be said that Yan is also responsible for this matter?" ”

Song Minqiu frowned, "Lord Wang, it seems that this matter has nothing to do with the whole case, right?" ”

"Huh." Wang Ningan smiled faintly, "Lord Song, you have also been rolling in officialdom for decades, pushing such a big thing to a young man to do, and pretending to be not guilty at all afterwards, where did you read your sage book?" Wang Ning'an's roar was like thunder, and even Yan Jidao behind the screen was startled and almost fell down.

Song Minqiu's face was solemn and he lowered his head, "Does the prince mean that the old man has failed the teachings of the saint?" Well, this old man has long been unwilling to be an official, and you have dismissed the old man! ”

"It's not that cheap!"

Wang Ningan grabbed the file on the table and smashed it at Song Minqiu.

"You open your eyes and take a good look! In the past few years, the imperial court has implemented the Qingmiao Law and the Fangtian Average Tax Law, and there is no movement here...... Reform education, implement Juntian, and do nothing, move to Haoqiang, requisition land and build roads, you still push it to others...... Song Minqiu, has been in the imperial court for decades, is it just a rice worm that eats white rice? You are not ashamed, this king is ashamed of you! ”

These few words poked at Song Minqiu's weakness.

He also stood up suddenly.

"King Xiliang, the old man has been an official since he entered the court, he has been studying books and writing history, he is conscientious, hard-working, and the Shilin is obvious to all, and it is not a corpse vegetarian meal, these decrees you said are all chaotic lives, of course the old man will not implement them."

Wang Ningan smiled, "Song Minqiu, do you dare to say that you just don't execute?" Among them, there is no misconduct, corruption and perversion of the law? ”

Song Minqiu put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and sneered: "The old man has a clear conscience all his life, how can he care about the villain's harm!" ”

Not to mention, it's quite bone-based.

Wang Ningan snorted, "Okay, put Lord Song aside first." ”

Song Minqiu was also stunned, he didn't expect Wang Ningan to stop, he thought that this kid would chase after him and take him down in the name of not cooperating with the change!

If that's the case, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, he is old, and it is not a capital crime to oppose the change, and after returning to his hometown, he may still be treated as a hero! It's just that Wang Ningan's routine makes him unable to understand it, and he inevitably panics.

The guards on both sides couldn't help but say something, and escorted him to the side room.

Wang Ning'an paused slightly, and asked people to continue to escort the two team leaders up, these two people were the two guys who were ordered by Yan Jidao to requisition the land, and as a result, they killed people.

"Get on your knees!"

The two of them obediently lay on their stomachs in the lobby, acting like two big toads.

"Who gave you the order to go to the land?"

"Yes, it's Lord Yan!"

Wang Ningan said again: "You have been there a few times, but you have communicated with the people, why did you die in the end?" ”

One of the thinner guys said, "Gone to the third ...... Three times, the first time they told the people that they would think for a few days, and the second time they went to negotiate conditions, and they all agreed to take twice the compensation...... The third time I went, these people saw that they were interested in making money, not only did they not hand over the land, but also started to loot and rob our money...... Big man! But it is not only the people who have died, but also many of our people! The court can't be unreasonable! ”

"That's it!"

Another also said: "The lives of the small people are worth money, the lives of our servants are not worth anything, don't forget who works for the court, if the court is so ruthless and unjust, regardless of its own people, the brothers are cold!" ”

Wang Ningan smiled, "What you said is quite reasonable, then I'll let you see what this thing is." ”

As he spoke, someone brought up a box and placed it in front of the two goods, and when he opened it, he saw that it was full of iron money, many of which were rusty and rotten, and could not be used.

"Yan Jidao asked you to use such money to compensate the people?"

The Great Song Dynasty did pass through iron money, but with the entry of Yunnan copper into Beijing, iron money was abolished, and later gold and silver became popular, and the use of copper money decreased.

Now on the market, the best iron coin is only worth half the price of copper coins.

In other words, paying with iron money, the so-called double preferential treatment, does not exist at all, and with rotten iron money, it is even more cheating!

Can the people agree?

Yan Jidao behind the screen opened his mouth wide and almost screamed, he hurriedly stuffed his fist in his mouth, so he didn't make a sound, he was full of horror, staring at Zhang Dian beside him...... Besides, why are you so powerful, and you can find out at once?

Zhang Dian secretly sneered, this kind of technique is rotten, if you kid is willing to go to the folk and listen to it, instead of chanting the wind and the moon all day long, you will not be toyed with and applauded by your subordinates!

Yan Jidao was thoughtful, and finally moved.

At this time, Wang Ningan continued to ask, "The imperial court allocated the money for land acquisition, which is a special fund, who gave you the courage to dare to fool the people with iron money?" Say! ”

You look at me, I look at you, and said in unison: "It's Lord Yan, it's Lord Yan who asked the villain to do it!" ”

"Really? ＂

"Yes, he asked us to do it, otherwise how would the little ones have the guts?"

Yan almost spurted blood, when did I let you do it!

He was about to rush out to argue, when he heard Wang Ningan continue to ask: "Yan Jidao is just in charge of the criminal name, and the transfer of funds is not within his purview, this king can immediately check the records of the treasury and see what is going on with this money!" ”

The two goods are finally sweating, and the paper can't keep the fire!

Wang Ningan continued: "Are you saying it now, or is this king going to investigate?" You are also the old men of the Yamen, harboring felons and interfering with the handling of cases, what are the charges, you don't need to say more, right? ”
