Chapter 642: Shameless
There is a brazen person like Wang Ning in this world, who is obviously all his own fault, but he just did these bad things for his own interests, but he put all the fault on those innocent villagers, and kept saying that the purpose of all this was for the sake of this court, which is ridiculous!
"Well, since you said that all this was for the sake of the imperial court, then I ask you why you don't give the villagers the corresponding subsidies as the government once decreed? Why hide this from the past? Don't you know that this is a great harm to the villagers? Li Ting knew that this person was just shifting his gaze to a more partial angle, I'm afraid that all this was to hide that subsidy.
It may not be a small amount of subsidy for each of these villagers, but it is enough to support them to wait until the next spring to sow new seeds, and with the number of disasters affected by these villagers, the total amount of each person is not a small amount.
"Is that so......" When it came to the subsidized money, Wang Ning was really a little speechless, if he couldn't explain where the money went, then he couldn't escape the blame for all this, and he didn't want to bury it all at will.
"Back to the emperor, what did you listen to these people? You must not listen to their slander, these people were born in that kind of poor village, once they can catch the benefits, they will desperately try to get the benefits, the emperor, if you are caught by them, then you will definitely suck a lot of money from the court, you must be careful of them! Wang Ning's eyes rolled, and he pointed the finger at the villagers.
"Heh-" Li Ting snorted coldly, not fooling him for this trick, "but now I'm asking you about this subsidy, why on earth are you leading the matter to the villagers?" If the villagers have a fault here, then solve it, and now it's your matter that you are asking, you just need to answer clearly, have you done anything to the subsidy over there! ”
"If you want to doubt the emperor, then you are a big wronged minister, the minister has been innocent all his life, all the money can be said to be obtained from the sweat of the minister, it is absolutely impossible to do anything with that subsidy, and if every villager has a subsidy, he will not get much, why should he take this risk to steal the money of the court? Your Majesty, do you think that's the truth? ”
"Really? Then I ask you if there is such a thing as a subsidy for the villagers? Li Ting seized a loophole in his words, if he said that there was a subsidy for the villagers, then the villagers did not receive it, then the problem must be on him, but if the villagers did not have a subsidy, then this problem would appear even more in him, such a big snow disaster, the villagers had no harvest, he actually did not solve this matter well, how could he, the court official, continue to be a magistrate?
Sure enough, Wang Ning obviously hesitated, he lowered his head, his fingers stirred together uneasily, and he didn't know how to answer Li Ting's question for a while.
At this time, Wei Yan said loudly, "Your Majesty, if this is the case, Lord Wang seems to be a little unable to remember, it is better to let someone else help Lord Wang to recall whether there is this subsidy or not!" ”
A hint of gloom flashed in Wang Ning's eyes, and he glared at Wei Yan viciously, I don't know why this unbeaten person wanted to intervene in him at this time? For many officials in the imperial court, it has always been one less thing to be less, and this Lord Wei is obviously not involved, so why do you want to say this more? Is it because he is afraid that the emperor will not find out that there is a problem in his account?
This is Wang Ning is just a petty official, he is in the county seat on weekdays, but he doesn't know that Wei Yan is a famous official in this court, and there is no one in this court who he doesn't dare to say, so for Wang Ning's own affairs, this is really not a thing, and it is just a mouthful.
"Why did Lord Wei say this, if the minister really can't think of it, can't he give the minister some more time? Why involve other innocent people? At that time, the reputation of the ministers and the emperor will be ruined, what is the intention of Lord Wei!? Wang Ning asked viciously, and sure enough, he misinterpreted Wei Yan's purpose as a suspicion of the emperor.
It's just that Wei Yan is different from other officials, and arguing with him for him is like playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong. He said with some disdain, "Lord Wang and the bitter desire to misinterpret the minister's meaning, the minister is just worried about Lord Wang Ning or lying in this matter, the minister did not question the emperor, for the emperor's order, it was promulgated when the emperor took the throne, you didn't implement it well, that is also your business, Lord Wang, and what is the matter with the emperor?" ”
Wang Ning was taken aback, he didn't expect Wei Yan to speak so ruthlessly, and directly said that he was doubting him for speaking, he didn't expect that there were such brainless people in this capital, it would be much better for the world to have one more friend than one more enemy in the future above this officialdom, how could Wei Yan be so unconventional?
"Your Majesty, don't believe the villain's slander! The minister is indeed not ashamed of the affairs of the court, but this matter is a long story, and some details have to be carefully thought about before you can explain to the emperor, if the details of the minister are missing, then it will be picked out by someone with a heart to say, then the minister may be misunderstood by the emperor, at that time, wouldn't it be a matter of letting those villains take advantage? Even at this time, Wang Ning still pretended to be loyal and very honest.
Li Ting seemed to agree with his words very much, nodded and said, "Since Lord Wang, if you think about the court like this, then it seems that it is absolutely impossible to rely on you to recall alone, Lord Wang, so let's call two people to come up and help you remember well." ”
"Someone's coming-call Sun Sheng, Li Xing-"
This Sun Sheng, Li Xing is the village's Uncle Sun and Lao Litou, after Li Ting summoned them in the imperial study, he asked Wang Ning to come in, before this he asked someone to take the two of them down, just in case, after all, if you don't need them to testify, then it is best for the two parties not to meet Beijing, for Sun Sheng and Li Xin, Wang Ning caused them enough harm to make so many young people in the village disappear in front of their eyes alive, such pain...... It's really unbearable, and every time he meets Wang Ning, it's equivalent to re-enacting such a pain, which is simply too cruel, and Li Ting will definitely not summon the two of them until the last resort.
Wang Ning was a little uneasy, he didn't know who else could be a witness to this accident, obviously the group of young people he had handed over to the people below to solve the problem, there was an accident, he also went to the scene to confirm, why did a witness suddenly appear?
