"The two are exempt from courtesy, and the two Shangshu are coming together, presumably there must be something important to discuss, and if you have something to say, you will listen to it without taboo." I raised my hand at Wei Zheng and sat up straight and said in a deep voice.

Wei Zheng sat up straight, his straight waist like that proud snow pine. At the beginning of the month, some people in the joint investigation team for the impeachment of Helian Chunshan in Longxi County secretly colluded with the gate valve of the Longxi family, and secretly obstructed the work of the joint investigation team to investigate and determine the household registration of the population in the acres of land on the grounds of border restlessness, so far, the joint investigation team has been stationed in Longxi for nearly two months, but the fields cleared are not even half ......."

Listening to Wei Zheng's narration, Ben Gongzi's brows became tighter and tighter, and his expression became gloomy. "Helian Spring Mountain...... At the beginning, this son felt that his governance of the people was quite popular, and he was good at managing the people's livelihood, and when my army arrived in Longxi, he returned from the whole county, so he was specially left to continue to serve. "The surname Helian originally came from the Huns.

Because the Xiongnu took a Han woman as his wife, his descendants followed the surname Liu. During the ancient Han Dynasty, there was a Xiongnu tribe in the north, and the leader was called Liu Qubei, the king of Youxian, and one of his descendants called himself the king of Xia, and changed the surname Liu to the surname Helian, which means that Hehe is connected with the sky. Liu Hu of the Western Jin Dynasty was changed to Tie Fu. In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Liu Hu's great-grandson Bobo was called the king of the Great Summer, and in the summer of the founding of the country, he changed his surname to Helian.

And the reason why this Helian Chunshan ⊥ this son remember clearly is precisely because of the peculiarity of his surname. I don't want this guy to jump out and impeach the joint investigation team at such a time, could it be that this guy is also an opponent of the New Deal, and he can't change his ways to obstruct it?

"And now he actually impeached the Joint Investigation Team? Could it be that his impeachment was just a cover for his covert obstruction of the affairs of the court? My gaze swept over the two of them, slightly dissatisfied. Why didn't you report such a great event to me earlier? ”

Wei Zheng frowned and nodded. "It's not that Weichen didn't report it, but at that time, he Taishou just wrote a letter to the minister, and the content of the letter was too vague and vague. Although the minister did not know whether it was true or not, he also informed Du Shangshu after receiving the letter. Ask Du Shangshu to send someone to investigate. ”

Du Shangshu is naturally Du Ruhui, and Du Ruhui, who is the head of the General Intelligence Bureau, is not very good-looking. "Lord Qi, after receiving the news of Wei Shangshu, the minister has already arranged the number of people to go, but in the land of Longxi, the family is intertwined, and it is not easy to find out some accurate news and evidence, so he dares to report to the lord."

Hearing this, Ben Gongzi couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly thought of a title: Guanlong Group, the general name of the gate valve military group around Guanzhong in Shaanxi and Longshan (or Liupan Mountain) in Gansu.

Even so, under the guidance and suppression of this son, the Guanlong Group has become a little sluggish, but it cannot be denied that it still has a strong influence, including the newly established Guanzhong Industrial and Commercial United Group, which has not been established for a few months, and behind many of the businessmen is the shadow of many Guanlong families.

However, these guys are obviously very aware of the extremely cruel methods of this son when dealing with the enemy, don't those guys want their own lives, and even the lives of their families are disregarded?

"Are they still thinking that Ben Gongzi's knife is not fast enough? Or do you think that Ben Gongzi didn't kill enough people? I asked in a deep voice after taking a long breath.

Hearing this, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui glanced at each other and saw the helpless bitterness in each other's eyes. In the end, Wei Zheng stood up and said: "Although they have many obstructions, they have not taken strong measures, and more have used various reasons, even secretly bribing the members of the joint investigation team......

Hearing this, my originally solemn expression couldn't help but froze, and my face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water. "How are they?"

"My lord, among the seventeen members of the joint investigation team, five of them accepted bribes, and two of them accepted beautiful concubines from the Longxi family." Du Ruhui gritted his teeth and replied directly: "These five people, each of whom accepted bribes ranging from 1,000 to 10,000 yuan, for example, Duguyun, the head of the joint investigation team, not only accepted a beautiful concubine and 7,000 yuan of money, but also accepted a land deed of 20 hectares of fertile land...... It is for this reason that "

Hearing this, I couldn't help laughing, the corners of my mouth were slightly curved, and my eyes were indifferent, but the more this happened, the more it made Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui nervous. They don't know that Ben Gongzi's smile represents the helplessness of his own cranky thoughts, after all, he is too nervous that his new policy will be attacked, and the leader is still a Taishou, so that Ben Gongzi subconsciously thinks that the old-style bureaucrats and those family lords are changing their ways to challenge Ben Gongzi's new policy.

But as a result, Helian Chunshan not only had nothing to do with this matter, but stood on the side of justice, but it was these elite bones who were selected by Ben Gongzi to represent the will of the court had a problem. I rely on his grandmother's support, how can this not make my son cry and laugh?

"Duguyun, I remember that when this person first joined the government as an official, he was quite good at it, full of enthusiasm, and had the ambition to serve the country and the people...... I don't want to, in less than half a year, it has actually deteriorated like this? I narrowed my eyes, sat down behind the desk, and gently tapped my fingers on the desk, making a crisp sound, and asked unhurriedly, "How have Duguyun and the others behaved during this time?" ”

Seeing that Ben Gongzi looked calm and relaxed, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui looked at Ben Gongzi with a little more awe.

"During this time, I often wrote to various ministries to report the progress, and I have been complaining that Longxi Taishou is too strict, and in addition, there are also officials in the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Civil Affairs who are speaking for Duguyun and others." Du Ruhui replied without thinking about it.

"The Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Civil Affairs? I remember that these two ministries also seem to be Fang Xuanling's part-time job, why didn't Fang Xuanling find out? Ben Gongzi asked with a slight brow. At this time, Sister Qingxia served us fragrant tea, smelling the fragrance of tea, and the concern between Sister Qingxia's eyebrows, my mind became more and more calm

Wei Zheng cleared his throat and replied: "Lord, it's no wonder that Fang Shangshu, these days, because of the tax reform, he is very busy, and the personnel of all departments are not full, Fang Shangshu is often the first to rush to the office, and the last one to leave......

Hearing this, I couldn't help but be a little silent, yes, there is a shortage of manpower, although this son has already brought more than two hundred graduates from Hancheng, plus the original officials and the officials recruited during this period of time, I am afraid that there are also three or four hundred.

However, because of the subdivision of work, there are no more than two-thirds of each department, and even some departments only have about a dozen people supporting the scene, often tired like a group of dead dogs. And Fang Xuanling, who has several books, is even harder.

"Well, it's no wonder he is." I nodded and replied. "Again, we are short of manpower, so we have hired a lot of barely qualified officials, but I don't want to, those officials didn't have an accident, but the people who were entrusted with important tasks went on a business trip."

After a long exhale, I asked in a deep voice. "Is it already certain?"

"Don't worry, the lord has used a total of two groups of people, light and dark, and although the situation found is more or less, there is no discrepancy, which shows that Helian Taishou of Longxi County is not lying." Du Ruhui replied directly.

I nodded. "What do you think should be done?"

Wei Zheng raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Naturally, it will be dealt with according to the law, but the lord and the minister think that in addition to the members of the joint investigation team who violated the laws of the court, the actions of those family lords, should we also make some statements, otherwise, the officials will be punished, and the culprits of seducing the officials will get away with it, which will definitely make those officials dissatisfied, and more importantly, it will boost their arrogance." ”

Du Ruhui nodded, bowed deeply to me, and earnestly persuaded: "Yes, the minister thinks that those who accept bribes should be disciplined according to the law, and those who lure people with heavy profits, if they are not disposed of, they will make all the businessmen and men in the world follow suit, in order to make short-term profits, and when the time comes, even if the truth is checked, only those officials will be disposed of, and these people will be able to get away with it." ”

Yes, only clean up the officials who accept bribes, and let those family gatekeepers, gentry and businessmen who are tempting with heavy profits. Then, there must be grievances in the hearts of the officials, and those who benefit will be even more unscrupulous

"The two of you are reasonable, before, my son thought badly, but he couldn't think of this layer, indeed, if these people who lure people with heavy profits are not disposed of, in the future, it will definitely make the court and the hundred officials separate." I nodded and replied.

"I declare that those who accept bribes will still be punished according to the new law, and those who induce others to commit crimes with heavy profits will be punished as accomplices......" With the endless waves of this son, Sister Qingxia quickly recorded my words on paper, and Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and praised them again and again.

Five days later, five of the members of the original joint investigation team who were in Longxi County were taken down and escorted to Chang'an for trial, and similarly, the Longxi family and those wealthy businessmen were also found out and sent to Chang'an for trial.

This made the entire Guanzhong in an uproar, especially those family lords, who could not have imagined that if they gave money to those officials, not only would the officials be severely punished, but they would also be punished in the same way.

Many of the family gate lords were in turmoil, and after receiving the news for the first time, this son immediately ordered the Longxi garrison to start assembling.

After those criminals were escorted to Chang'an, in the former Dali Temple Yamen, the current Supreme Court was put on trial, and an official who should have accepted bribes was removed from his post, and in addition, according to the amount of bribes they received, they were sentenced to five to ten years of labor reform according to the law.
