Chapter 143: How did you confess your sins?
Li Song, the governor of Denglai, is over 50 years old this year, with a tall and thin figure, a pale face, and a little sparse long hair under his chin. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info On this late winter morning, he sat on the official case in a four-grade official uniform, and watched the Denglai generals rush in.
"Yang Guodong, the chief soldier of Denglai, see Lord Junmen." Yang Guodong gave a deep salute after entering.
Li Song's face twitched, and he said in Shanxi official dialect, "Mr. Yang doesn't need to be polite, come here, take a seat." β
A servant hurriedly passed over a chair.
"Thank you, Junmen." Yang Guodong thanked him, and then sat on the chair with a big thorn.
Good for you, Li Song lucked his luck, suppressed the boredom in his heart, and endured it.
You must know that the founding of the Ming Dynasty is to use literature and martial arts, and it has always been civil and martial arts, don't look at Yang Guodong is a second-grade general soldier, and Li Song, who has to kneel when he sees a fourth-grade soldier, but Yang Guodong is just a deep salute, which is simply extremely domineering.
It's just Wei Biao's godson, what a bastard who doesn't want to lose face and forget his ancestors, Wei Zhongxian's loyal minions, Yang Guodong relied on Wei Zhongxian to dare to be so rude.
Of course, Li Song can only slander in his heart, now that he is nine thousand years old and powerful, even he has to spend money and food from the originally empty treasury to Wei Zhongxian to build a shrine, otherwise not only will the official position be lost, but even the lives of the whole clan are worried, and more than ten governors of the Ming Dynasty are almost impossible.
"I've seen the Governor." Tang Qian and others also knelt down to pay respects.
"A few adults, please, no need to be polite." Li Song smiled and saluted back.
Tang Qian, Yang Jingtang, Li Youde, and Zhao Haiming got up one after another.
At this time, another person entered outside, it was Wang Yan, the commander of the Denglai Water Division.
"Wang Yan has seen the governor and the town." The king bowed down and bowed.
After everyone finished greetings, Li Song ordered tea on the seats, and several people sat down one after another.
"Ahem," Li Song cleared his throat, "where is Zhao Haiming?" β
"Xiaguan Zhao Haiming pays a visit to the governor." Zhao Haiming hurriedly got up and saluted.
"Well," Li Song squinted his narrow eyes and looked at Zhao Haiming, "Today, all the generals of the Denglai Army are gathered here, because Denglai Dusi suppressed Wang Ning and sued you for several crimes. β
"My lord, the subordinate has always been loyal to his duties and treated the soldiers well, and he doesn't know the guilt of Wang Ning." Zhao Haiming said proudly.
Yang Jingtang watched coldly, sneered in his heart, just be stubborn, see how long you Zhao Haiming can be arrogant today. The smile on his face deepened.
"Okay, then I'll let you know a thing or two." Li Song sank his face, he also knew that someone had filed a complaint, and someone had taken the lead, this matter was too strange, but a military general filed a complaint, and the general Yang Guodong also seconded it, so he, as the governor of Denglai, had to verify the matter, otherwise it would be dereliction of duty. "Come on, pass Wang Ning in."
Suddenly, a short and thin Sanpin military general entered the room, and it was Wang Ning, the commander of the capital.
Wang Ning is in his thirties, with a white face and no beard, walks erratically, and his eyes are lively.
Zhao Haiming has seen Wang Ning twice, of course, he only knows this character, and he can't talk about friendship.
Zhao Haiming took a good look at the person who sued him.
And Wang Ning didn't squint, kneeling on the ground, "Your Majesty Wang Ning has seen Lord Junmen." β
"Please," Li Song smiled slightly, "Lord Wang will tell Lord Zhao about the charges again." β
"The subordinate obeys." Wang Ning got up and looked at Zhao Haiming with a straight face, "There are three charges against Zhao Haiming, one is that Commander Zhao has always withheld military salaries, filled his own pockets, and disregarded the livelihood of the soldiers under his command, while his own family is widely owned and acreaged, and domestic slaves are raised. The second is a secret ship, which is very contemptible for public and private use, and the third is to secretly communicate overseas and sell seafood. β
"Oh," Li Song knew that if these charges were implemented one by one, Zhao Haiming would be enough to raid his family and exterminate his clan, especially the last two. "Commander Zhao, tell me, do you admit to this crime?"
"Wait," a voice interrupted Li Song.
Everyone was stunned, and it turned out that it was Yang Guodong who spoke.
"Lord Junmen," Yang Guodong smiled and arched his hand, "Your Majesty has something to ask Lord Wang Ning, I don't know if it's okay." β
"Of course, the stakes are high, and they really need to be carefully examined." Li Song replied in a humble manner, you are just Wei Gelding's doglegs, but you are so domineering, in front of this official, you dare to interject at any time, you are really a vicious dog, Li Song hated Yang Guodong. However, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, and he has nothing to do with his nominal subordinate now.
"Wang Ning, this town asks you," Yang Guodong said solemnly, "Do you know Lord Zhao in the past?" β
"Lord Bing, my subordinates didn't know Lord Zhao in the past, but they only knew a thing or two." Wang Ning arched his hand.
"Then how did Lord Wang know that Commander Zhao was so detailed?" Yang Guodong smashed his mouth and looked at Wang Ning.
Wang Ning's eyes squinted at Yang Jingtang, and he saw that Lord Tongzhi was sitting in danger, and he was listening very carefully.
Damn, Lao Yang, didn't you say that you have dredged General Yang, this tastes wrong.
Yang Jingtang's face was calm, but in fact, he also drew his soul in his heart, and Yang Guodong, who was special, also accepted three thousand taels of silver, and seconded the proposal to inspect the matter, how wrong were these few words, but years of experience made him silent.
Wang Ning swallowed and spitted at the mouth, and continued, "The cousin of my brother-in-law's nephew and son-in-law's cousin is the first soup festival this timeγγγγγ β
With a snort, the tea in Li Youde's mouth squirted out, Nima, in order to get rid of Lao Zhao, you really took great pains, how many turns have you made, it's really hard for you to wait.
Li Youde didn't want to meddle in things, but he still couldn't hold back when he saw Yang Jingtang and others' bad methods. However, when he thought that Li Song's attitude was unclear, Yang Guodong had already seconded the proposal, Li Youde sighed in his heart, Lao Zhao, you ask for more blessings.
Wang Ning looked at Li Youde, and then said, "Tang Jie, Hu Sheng and others are not ashamed of Zhao Haiming's deduction of food and salary, and they fill their own pockets, so they file a lawsuit, and I hope that the adults will be aware of it." β
Yang Guodong nodded, without words.
Yang Jingtang and Wang Ning both breathed a sigh of relief, well, the three thousand taels of silver were not spent in vain, and it was worth it to buy the support of the general soldiers.
"Zhao Haiming, what do you have to say?" Li Song looked at Zhao Haiming, when he heard about such a bent relative, he knew a little in his heart that there was something going on, but he didn't want to care about it, in his opinion, this gang of Ziqiu Ba was not clean, and he bit it.
"My lord, the first and third charges mentioned by Wang Ning are purely false accusations, and they are false, and your lord can send someone to investigate thoroughly." Zhao Haiming said solemnly.
Yang Jingtang picked up the tea bowl and said with a sneer, you Zhao Hai knows that the first three items are not easy to verify, but they are pushed cleanly, hum, your subordinates are all out of the lead in the second item, see how you shirk it.
Li Song keenly found that Zhao Haiming did not say the second item, "How do you prove yourself on the second charge." β
"There are still some secret ships in this place, and the lower officials dare to do it." Zhao Haiming said.
Snorted, this time it was Yang Jingtang who squirted out a mouthful of tea, what, how could he admit this crime, this, he shouldn't have come this way, if he Zhao Haiming confessed to this crime, he wouldn't be able to turn over, this time it was not suspended pending investigation, but dismissed and convicted, did Zhao Haiming lose his mind.
The other generals also looked at the two of them, in fact, they were against each other in this matter, and everyone knew it, so seeing a person confessing to the crime and a person spraying tea in public, his eyes wandered between them, and this thing was too weird today.
Li Song was also shocked by Zhao Haiming's words, the first time he encountered the officials who admitted his crimes, he had always refused to admit to death, he dusted off the sleeves of his robe in disgust, and glanced at Yang Jingtang, it was Li Youde who sprayed tea, and now it is Yang Jingtang, all of them are really from Qiu Ba, and they are very vulgar in public.
