Chapter 631: Decree issued
Chen Letian said with one hand that you should stop praising me, I want you to criticize me, and I want to improve. Explain clearly the reasons, purposes, and implications of bringing all the officials of the more than 1,000 defendants to the Prime Minister's Imperial History Yamen for interrogation.
So the persuaded Yushi adults finally nodded, and Zhang Yushi said: "My lord, you give the order, and we will go down to arrange it after the meeting." ”
Chen Letian nodded: "The wording of the official documents issued to various places should not be too harsh, try to be as gentle as possible, do not use words such as interrogation, and use words such as cooperating with the investigation and asking about the situation." The goal is to get them to let their guard down, and if they say it too harshly, they may run away immediately. ”
"The cost of their escape is very high, and it is unrealistic to drag their families with them, and they are easy to be chased and intercepted by the people. And as long as there is a glimmer of hope, even if it is just a loss of office, as long as it is not a killing, they can accept it. Compared with abandoning their wives and children, they would rather not have the position of an official. Chen Letian said.
On the morning of the same day, the Prime Minister's Imperial History Yamen was issued by the Prime Minister Imperial Historian and issued a decree facing the thirty cities of Shudi.
The content of the decree was that the deadline was 10 days, and all officials whose names were named should arrive in Chengdu within the specified time.
One document for one city, and thirty documents for thirty cities.
The names of the officials are listed on the paperwork.
From the county order to the jailer, as long as you are on the list, you will come.

On this day, the county order of Bazhong City, that is, the new Wei County Order, received an edict from the Prime Minister Yushi Yamen.
Wei Xianling read the decree from beginning to end, and couldn't help nodding again and again. I thought to myself, Chen Letian is really powerful, such a vigorous and resolute method, it is simply an example for officials such as me to learn. It's really strange, he grew up in the capital merchant family, and there was no one in the family to be an official, and later when he was a little older, he went to the military camp of the Northern Army, and he never had any experience of being an official and an official, but why was it that after being appointed by His Majesty as the prime minister, these policies were very practical and very useful? It was really strange? Could it be that the ten imperial historians instructed him? I don't believe it, Chen Letian is by no means the kind of person who has to rely on others to make decisions......
Of course, Wei Xianling would not have thought that Chen Letian, who had already seen a lot of officialdom in unknown letters since he was a child, had already reached the point of perfection in his true understanding of officialdom. Even Chen Letian himself didn't know that he was actually very powerful.
After all, he has always pursued the principle of getting shallow on paper, and he never thought that he could understand a thing just by reading a book. So he only sees himself as a learning learner. Just as he received His Majesty's decree and named him the Prime Minister's Imperial History, his first reaction was to question himself, can he be the first responsible governor like the governor at his level?
It wasn't until he knew that there were ten Imperial Historians to assist him at the same time that he felt a little more at ease. V3 Academy
Even Chen Letian himself didn't know these decrees, and in the eyes of all officials with intentions, they had to admire him, a young man, for his deep observation of the direction of officialdom.
Therefore, it is too normal for Wei Xianling to not understand and figure it out.
Bazhong City was the starting place of this Shu storm, and Wei County Ling saw the names of twenty-six officials on the official documents under the Prime Minister's Imperial History Yamen. He didn't know about the other cities, at least for the time being. In the absence of comparison, he could only subconsciously feel that twenty-six people was already a lot.
Wei Xianling pondered the twenty-six people carefully for a moment. After he sat in the position of prefectural magistrate, he made a very big change in personnel.
After all, the county magistrate has been operating in Bazhong City for so many years, except for the people who command the envoy and there is no one for him, almost any other yamen has people from the county lord.
You must know that the reason why Cao Lin and Cao County Ling have been able to control Bazhong City for so many years is how many people are helping him to do things, so that he can be so controlling.
However, since the fall of Cao Xianling, those who had a good relationship with him in the past have come to Wei Xianling to surrender nine times out of ten.
Tell Wei County Ling how helpless they have been in the past few years. Under Cao Lin's obscenity, they didn't dare to refuse, as long as they were disobedient, their lives would be at risk, let alone losing their officials.
These people fully expressed to Wei Xianling that they definitely did not intend to be Cao Lin's doglegs, but a helpless move. It was only in order to ensure the lives of his family that he had to be obedient temporarily.
As for Wei Xianling, in the face of the surrender of these people, he adopted different countermeasures against different people.
For those who have a deep relationship with Cao County, the entire county government knows that he has a good relationship with Cao County, and many people in Bazhong City know that he has a good relationship with Cao Lin. These people he chose to directly refuse the surrender of these people, no matter how they cried in front of him, how they knelt outside the door of the county Cheng's house, Wei County Ling was indifferent, and made it clear that you people should quickly resign and apologize to the villagers, or take the initiative to surrender to the official, maybe I can forgive you, if not, if you want to give me a gift, you want to get my forgiveness, then what is the difference between me and the former Cao County Order!
In this way, these people basically cut off the possibility of jumping from the previous Cao County Order to Wei County Order. Of course, it is impossible to admit guilt, and no matter how many bad things these people have done in the past few decades, it is absolutely impossible for them to voluntarily turn themselves in. Could they still come over and take the initiative to tell Wei Xian Ling, I have done something that people and gods are angry about, and Wei Xian ordered you to arrest me and kill me, right? This is absolutely impossible. Even if they are caught, they still have to deny it, and of course they will not suddenly find out and surrender voluntarily.
Under this attitude of Wei County's order, most of these people have chosen to resign, and on the documents of the resignation, these people are vague, saying that they are too old to be competent, and now that something has happened in Bazhong City, they have become disheartened...
After resigning, they are still frightened and cautious to live their lives, sometimes they are worried that the county lord will settle with them, and sometimes they regret that they should not resign, there are officials on their bodies, they are not resigned, what can they do to Wei County, the big deal is that Wei County's order will do whatever he says, will Wei County's order really sue them all to the court? But sometimes I think the other way around, it's better to resign, I'm already a civilian, and you can't pursue me anymore...
