Chapter 645: Ask and Kill

"Oh yes?" Li Ting only heard it, and stopped after hearing Wang Ning's words, but quickly reacted again, "No matter what happens to you, Lord Wang, you have to go, anyway, you can't say anything here......"

"The emperor doesn't need to be cautious, the minister is here to tell all these things in front of you, and the emperor doesn't need to go to the criminal division!" Wang Ning waved his arm twice in vain, it was really that place was too terrifying for him, so he would rather expose it all than suffer from the flesh and skin.

Li Ting raised his chin to the two people who were about to pull him down, and those two people very consciously let go of Wang Ning's arms, allowing Wang Ning to kneel in front of Li Ting again, "Since this is the case, then Lord Wang will make all this clear, if it is not clear, then it is better to simply go to the Shen Penal Division." โ€

"Yes......" Wang Ning lowered his head very decadently, and now he can only admit everything he has done, "Your Majesty, the minister didn't want to make things like this at first......"

"The minister knows that in the eyes of the emperor, he definitely doesn't take that little praise as a thing, but for the minister, being praised by the emperor can be regarded as one of the biggest dreams in this life, so after the snow disaster, he didn't react to the matter as soon as possible, and it directly caused this kind of thing, which can be regarded as out of the minister's selfishness, and the minister doesn't want the minister to know that the minister who was praised by you actually did it like this, and even this little thing can't be done!"

With Wang Ning's confession, Li Ting's brows gradually furrowed, "Do you know what is the most important thing for an official?" It's not his face or the emperor's praise he thinks of, this kind of thing for an official, the most important thing is to make the life of all the people in the area under his jurisdiction a little better, this is his ultimate goal, you don't know anything but you only know to use me as your shield, but even so, then why do you have to hide the subsidy from the villagers, why don't you give it to the villagers? โ€

After hearing this question, Wang Ning was obviously silent, it is true that he is doing this for his own selfishness, what is the use of giving some money to those people? They're just going to pester you for more money!

"Your Majesty, you don't understand, for that group of people, as long as you give him money once, he will pester you again and again, and the minister has been in that place for a long time, so he knows much better than the emperor. So, you can't start this, once you start, then he thinks that they will never be willing to work on their own anymore, and they will always pester you to find subsidies from the government! โ€

Uncle Sun and Lao Li Tou listened to Wang Ning say such words next to them, and their hearts were like overturning the seasoning jar, and they didn't know what to say for a while, in the eyes of Wang Ning, are they villagers so unbearable? If it weren't for the fact that this year's snow disaster was too serious, they almost had no harvest, and their families couldn't get by, who would have thought of that subsidy? But as long as they can survive this year, they will never ask the court to ask for money, why would this official actually think of them like this in his heart? Besides, they hadn't done this before, so where did Wang Ning come to his conclusion?

"I don't know where you came to your conclusions, but I want to tell you that even if these villagers keep asking the court for money, I can afford to support them, you know? I put forward this policy in the first place to ensure that the real people can have food and live when they encounter natural and man-made disasters, do you understand the intention of this policy in the first place, you ran here to speculate about the intentions of those villagers, it was originally against the original intention, and besides, you did not give the money to the villagers, nor did you return it to the imperial court, you just swallowed it privately, you are embezzling, corrupt! It's just for the sake of the so-called imperial court! Li Ting made a big fuss, it was really Wang Ning who said these words that made him angry, the lives of these dozens of young villagers are not for fun, this is really too cruel.

And Wei Yan silently watched Li Ting's expression on the side, a little surprised in his heart, he didn't expect Li Ting to show such a tough attitude in this matter, which he had never sat on the throne in the past few years, his principle when dealing with various things has always been to avoid contradictions if they can avoid them, but now they have touched his bottom line, otherwise they would not have caused such a big fire.

"Okay, you don't have to say it, I know what you have done, now the blood on your hands can't be washed, for my people, the people who really want to defend, you actually put such a cruel hand on those people, even if the families of those villagers can forgive you, I will never be able to forgive you! Three days later, I askedโ€”"

After saying this last sentence, Li Ting stopped talking, he waved his hand, and the person next to him took him down, Wang Ning was really shocked, he didn't expect that he hadn't continued to end, then the emperor gave him such a punishment, how, how could it be so fast? didn't even have a chance to explain to him, and in Wang Ning's shock, the two guards next to him had already dragged him down one by one.

"Huh-" Li Ting sighed secretly, for these villagers, the most he can do is this, Wang Ning's death is not a pity, but he still has a lot of things to do, for these villagers, the rest of the family, he needs to do his best to appease, not to mention, it seems that many villages in the jurisdiction under Wang Ning's management must be like this, he has to send a useful person over to investigate well, these villagers should first give them enough food, So that they can get through this year in peace.

"Wei Yanโ€”"

"The minister is here." Wei Yan suddenly heard Li Ting call his name, and he hurriedly responded.

"I decided to send you to these villages to investigate how serious it is, and at the same time take the subsidy of the imperial court to appease those villagers for me, understand?" For many officials in this court, Wei Yan is the only one who has been trusted in his heart, not because of how strong Wei Yan's ability is, but because Wei Yan has always been like that, a fair and just person, it seems that he will not be false and wrongful since he was born.

And Li Ting knew that Wei Yan had completely abandoned such things as corruption, and he would always take what Wei Yan wanted, and he was not limited to stealing the villagers' money through this means.

Li Ting's arrangement also happened to fall into Wei Yan's hands, for him, this matter was enough to shock his three views, and for these most pitiful villagers, he also felt that if he could figure it out directly, he would be much more at ease in his heart.
