Chapter 276: Attack on the Qian family
As a result, the person who gave the gift was frightened, wiped his cold sweat and said good things to Nan Wuyang repeatedly, so he almost knelt down and begged Nan Wuyang to accept the gift.
After the group left, Nan Wuyang said: "Qianwen, I know that you will be entangled in these things, this ceremony will be the first time, but if there is a second time, the king will not refuse, otherwise it will be bad if this group of officials becomes suspicious." ”
Liu Qianwen nodded, there should be a degree of arrangement, she can't stop Nan Wuyang, but she won't destroy Nan Wuyang's affairs, "Wuyang, just look at it." ”
"Let's go, let's go and see the governor's house, Rui Li will show this to the nurse and let Du Zhen guard it." There is no seedling road in the south, there are Du marks, and both of them can rest assured.
"No, didn't we just refuse Qian Feng's kindness to receive the wind banquet? Why the present and the past? Liu Qianyu looked at Nan Wuyang in confusion.
Nan Wuyang smiled and said, "Let's sneak in and see the situation." ”
When the two sneaked in, it was already past dinner time, but the other officials in the border area were still in the governor's mansion and never left.
Naturally, this group of people definitely didn't come here to eat Nan Wuyang didn't come to eat the wind reception, Nan Wuyang not only refused to come to the wind reception, but also refused even gifts.
Liu Qianwen and Nan Wuyang sat on the roof, listening to the officials inside.
"Do you think His Royal Highness King An has any dissatisfaction with the border lands? I didn't even accept gifts. ”
"How's that good? Did His Royal Highness King An find out something, or did we provoke His Royal Highness King An without knowing it? ”
"Where are we not doing well? Is it too light for gifting? ”
"Yes, Lord Qian, you have something to say! King An is like this, is it the emperor's intention or King An's own will. ”
So the official looked at Qian Feng in fear, and almost didn't kneel and cry directly in front of Qian Feng.
"My lord, why don't we inquire again, what did we offend His Royal Highness King An, and why did we show favor so much, His Royal Highness King An didn't accept it."
"By the way, is it because we didn't prepare Princess An's gift, which made King An dissatisfied."
Liu Qianwen, who was sitting on the roof and eavesdropping, almost wanted to slap the official who said that he didn't give her a gift, why did she still pull her? This is Nan Wuyang's refusal to accept gifts, what does it matter to her?
The face of the border governor is very bad, his face is gloomy and scary, listening to this group of people, he also has a lot of pain in his head.
"Quiet, quiet!" He pressed one hand to his temple and the other to signal everyone to be quiet.
At this time, the officials stopped discussing, and the officials turned their heads one after another, looked at Qian Feng expectantly, and silently waited for his next step.
Qian Feng sighed faintly, and put down the hand that was rubbing his temples, "That's it, the old man sent someone to inquire, you all go back and prepare, prepare one more gift from Princess An, and the gift from King An's side You will also add another thirty percent." ”
When the officials below heard this, they didn't dare to speak, but it was Lord Lu who spoke, and he asked Qian Feng, "Lord Qian, will it work if we do this?" ”
Qian Feng sighed again, "The old man doesn't know, if this still doesn't work, then the old man can only wait for King An to come and take off the old man's black gauze hat." In his opinion, if Nan Wuyang refuses to accept the gift, he has an opinion about the border areas, and none of them, the border officials, will be spared.
I don't know how long it has been, the more Liu Qianwen listens, the more sleepy she feels, Nan Wuyang sees this and takes her away, Liu Qianyu wants to walk around the street to see what the difference is with the Imperial City Night Market.
Walking on the street, Liu Qianwen asked: "Lord Wang, are these conversations in Lord Qian's mansion all expected by you?" Sooner or later, you're going to receive these people's gifts, aren't you? ”
Nan Wuyang nodded, in addition to being corrupt officials, he came here to do things for those who were not greedy, but he couldn't do anything if he blindly put on a clean and lofty appearance.
"Then what are you going to do, lord?" Liu Qianwen asked.
Nan Wuyang sighed, "Don't do it, if they give gifts tomorrow, this king selectively accepts them, but this governor's gift, this king doesn't plan to accept it." ”
"Why?" Don't take it? Liu Qianwen was surprised, didn't she say that she would receive the second delivery? Or differential treatment?
"Well, don't accept it, this king plans to go back and let the imperial brother investigate the problem of this governor." Nan Wuyang said, "As long as you are an official, you won't be clean." ”
"Wouldn't it? Isn't that too much? Liu Qianwen asked.
"Is this excessive?" Nan Wuyang didn't care, "Since you refuse, you have to refuse to the end, this king has no choice to catch them all, just catch the big ones." "Temple Street
If they are wiped out, many officials in other places will be in danger, and killing this group of corrupt officials does not mean that the next group will not.
If the last batch kills a batch, then there will soon be civil strife here, and Liu Qianwen also knows very well that this is ancient after all, and the mechanism is completely different from modern times.
If only the governor is arrested, then the other officials will be very cautious in the officialdom, and in this way, if they still want to be greedy in the future, they will remember the fate of the governor, which also has a deterrent effect, and the effect is much better than killing them all in one go.
Following
The gifts of these officials were still sent to the post station, but Nan Wuyang refused the governor's only gift in addition to the gifts of his other officials, and on the third day, the governor was imprisoned for the crimes of disregarding people's lives and conniving at his subordinates to kill and injure innocent people.
When the governor was sentenced to be beheaded, Nan Wuyang stood on the execution ground and said loudly, "Bullying the people, the crime deserves death!" ”
For a while, Nan Wuyang won the favor of many local people, but all this was just the beginning, and it was the beginning of his attack on the borderlands.
Through this incident, other officials also have an understanding of him, they think that although Nan Wuyang is ruthless, as long as he does not touch his bottom line, he will not worry about these small officials, as long as he does not suppress the innocent people, Nan Wuyang will not pay much attention to them.
Then, the other officials, in addition to recovering the people they forcibly drove away, gave them a lot of fertile land and silver money, at least enough for them to eat for the rest of their lives.
As for the other civilians whose property was usurped, in addition to appeasing them, the officials also returned the silver money one by one without a trace, for fear of becoming the second governor of money.
The people all praised Nan Wuyang as an iron-faced clean official and a good prince for the sake of the people.
Of course, all the people know that His Royal Highness King An was sent by the emperor, and all this is equivalent to the emperor urging King An to do it, so the emperor's reputation has increased unprecedentedly.
Naturally, in this era, there were governors and governors, and when the governor had an accident and the emperor had not had time to appoint a new governor, the governor in charge of the border areas came, and he came with a group of wealthy merchants.
As soon as he came, he invited Nan Wuyang to a banquet, and naturally gave Nan Wuyang and Liu Qianyu a big gift at the banquet, naturally, this time, Nan Wuyang accepted all the gifts, and none of them refused, and the governor of the border area saw this, and his smile became deeper and deeper.
Nan Wuyang accepted the gift, at least he didn't have to worry about his black yarn hat being lost.
But all this made Liu Qianwen very depressed, obviously looking at the situation that was not conducive to them, this Nan Wuyang could still find a way to open the situation here, it didn't take more than three days before and after, it was really amazing, Liu Qianyu was amazed in her heart.
"How's it going, you're doing a good job for your husband, aren't you?" Nan Wuyang raised his eyebrows, "Seeing that you admire your husband so much, how about rewarding you for your husband tonight?" ”
"Shameless!" Liu Qianwen said with a red face, she didn't have to think about it to know what the reward Nan Wuyang said, thinking of this, Liu Qianwen felt a chill.
"By the way, you dealt with Qian Feng, do you have anything to say on the Qian family's side?" Liu Qianwen asked, in fact, in these days in the post station, there are a lot of Qian family members to give gifts.
Although she didn't know what the status of the Qian family who was talking to her was in the Qian family, people had been asking her about her attitude towards the Qian family.
"Hush." Nan Wuyang shrugged his shoulders indifferently, looking unconcerned.
Seeing this, Liu Qianwen couldn't help but say a few words to him, "If you want to deal with the Qian family, why do you want to accept their gifts?" "I don't care if I behave like this, so why bother.
"Qianwen, have you heard a sentence, the people don't fight with the officials, the Qian family has no Qian Feng, they are the people, this king is an official, and whatever this king says is what it is." Nan Wuyang's face was not red and his heart was not beating.
"You can do it, you are the only person I have ever seen who can bully people so reasonably, you are really amazing!" Liu Qianwen gave Nan Wuyang a thumbs up.
Before Nan Wuyang also said that the officialdom in the border area is closely related to the economy, but he turned his head and dealt with Qian Feng, she has also paid special attention these days, if Nan Wuyang really wants to make a move against the Qian family, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with.
The Qian family is really a hard bone to gnaw, thinking of this, Liu Qianwen can't help but have a headache, this Nan Wuyang is really, just buy this pass, she is blue and thin!
Nan Wuyang didn't say much to Liu Qianwen, but suddenly raised other questions, and he glanced at Nan Ruili, who was asleep in bed.
"Ruili's 100 days, it seems to be just recently." Nan Wuyang said.
"Huh?" Liu Qianwen couldn't react for a while, what does this Rui Li's 100-day banquet have to do with what they are talking about? "No, aren't we talking about the frontier?"
"Let's try it, during Ruili's 100-day banquet, we will invite other rich businessmen and officials, but not the Qian family." Nan Wuyang said.
"Huh?" Liu Qianwen was confused when she heard this, what kind of operation is this, "You will scare the snake like this!" ”
"What this king wants is to startle the snake, so that they will perceive the king's attitude towards them, and when the time comes, they will definitely make a move, and the result of the attack will be the king's blow."
