Chapter 13 Pig teammate Zhou Tong
The guard period was just a knock on the hundred officials, and he didn't really move, and soon took over the matter to let the hundred officials settle down.
Then he raised his hand to the red-clothed inner prison who was serving beside him.
The internal supervisor took out the yellow silk holy decree that had been prepared a long time ago, walked a few steps quickly to the front of the hundred officials, and read it aloud:
"King Gong and King Qi obey the order!"
Wang Duobao and Wei Bang, who were on the side of the court, stepped forward and bowed.
"Sons obey orders!"
"Qingzhou disaster relief line, parade to make Wei Bang, inspector to Wei Jue, poor supervision, resulting in the case of embezzlement of ink, the government and the opposition uproar Qingzhou people resentment boiling. The inspector is now ordered to suspend the supply of Wei Jue Mansion for one year, and the parade to stop the supply of Wei Bang for three months as a punishment! ”
"Son's order is grateful!"
The two of them kowtowed again, then got up and continued to stand on the side of the court.
The so-called suspension of supply is just that the Internal Affairs Office does not issue money, and it is said to be a small punishment and a big commandment, but in fact it is just a show for the officials and the people.
Don't say that the supply will be suspended for one year, with the savings of the two of them, even if the supply is stopped for ten or eight years, there will be no problem.
Besides, even if there were no savings, it was impossible for the two princes to starve to death or go out on the streets to do some work that degraded the royal dignity.
The suspension of the supply does not mean that he can't give them a private reward during the guard period, even if he doesn't reward them, those palace maids and eunuchs in the palace are eager to go up to the pole to give silver to the two princes, hoping to remember their own good.
The ministers had no objection to this will, and even if they were, they did not dare to say it under the beating of the Guard.
I only heard the red-clothed inner prison continue to read:
"Qingzhou's chief envoy Yang Baocheng and others were shocked by the fact that they were greedy for money for disaster relief, and they need to be dealt with seriously."
"All his family property is now confiscated."
"Officials at the government, provincial, and city levels who are greedy for ink are beheaded, and the three clans are flowing."
"Yang Baocheng, the leader, the three clans of the nine clans, and the rest are all streamed."
"Zhou Tong, the governor of Qingzhou, Song Xu, the chief secretary of Fengyang City, and others have reported and exposed meritorious services, and now the household department plans to reward them."
"Those who have meritorious service at the government, province, and city levels have been promoted to half a level, and Zhou Tong, the governor of Qingzhou, exposed Yang Baocheng, the chief envoy of Qingzhou, who was the first meritorious and promoted to one level, and was transferred to the court as an official by the Ministry of Officials."
After the holy decree was read, the hundred officials in the court knocked on the leader's decree, and the red-clothed inner eunuch retreated to the original position on the left side of the dragon throne.
After a period of rewards and punishments, the Wei period spoke loudly again to solve the current problems in Qingzhou.
"At present, the resentment of the people in Qingzhou is boiling, the imperial court needs to send people again to rush to the disaster relief, the household department will allocate the same silver as last time, and the officials will draw up a recommended list of the roving envoys and inspectors for this trip, and tomorrow I will send people to the disaster relief again, and we must appease the people!"
"Your Majesty!"
The officials of the household department and the official department replied respectfully.
Wei Qi snorted disdainfully, reached out and patted the armrest of the faucet beside him, stood up, and said loudly:
"This time the disaster relief will not work twice, twice if it doesn't work, three times, three times if it doesn't work, and four, five, six, seven, eight times! In the end, if it doesn't work, I'll go myself! ”
"I, David, have money, and the treasury is very full! I want to see how bold and hungry the corrupt officials and corrupt officials in those places really are, and see if my David's treasury can hold them to death! ”
Wei Shi made up his mind this time, and the officials below did not dare to slack off, and they rushed to prepare after the meeting.
At this court meeting, the case of Qingzhou's disaster relief and embezzlement of ink came to an end.
Everything was expected by Wang Duobao.
As for the punishment of a one-year suspension of supply, it was not painful for him.
But when he returned to his palace from the court, he found a large chest in the courtyard.
Seeing Wang Duobao coming back from the court meeting, the palace maid who was guarding the courtyard stepped forward and bowed her head and saluted, and said:
"Your Highness the Nineteenth, this is sent by His Majesty not long ago, saying that it is a reward for His Highness."
Wang Duobao sneered when he heard this, and in the end, he still felt sorry for his precious son, and on the surface, he was cut off for a year, but in fact, there were many rewards in secret.
He stepped forward to open the box and saw that a box full of silver ingots was enough for him to spend half a year in this house.
There is also a note on top of these ingots.
Wang Duobao picked up the note and looked at it, and it was written on one side.
"This is the way of the emperor."
The other side reads.
"Not enough to come to me again."
This is teaching him to do things!
Wang Duobao sneered again, looked back in the direction of the Wei Period Dormitory, and said in his heart: You and I are old monsters who have lived for tens of thousands of years, what is the way of the emperor and still use you to teach?
Thinking so in his heart, Wang Duobao still picked up the note on the surface, waved his hand to beckon someone to carry the box down, and said to the palace maid on the side:
"We still have to thank Your Majesty for your great kindness!"
……
In Qingzhou, since the secret officials sent by the Wei period checked a person and seized the stolen goods, the whole family of the Qing officials on Wang Duobao's list were put in prison and detained.
The decree of the Guardian to deal with the matter was also quickly transmitted.
At this time, Yang Baocheng's family of hundreds of people were crammed into a large cell.
There are young and old, and there are even pregnant women with big bellies and babies under the age of one month.
These people are Yang Baocheng's three clans, and they will be beheaded tomorrow.
The rest of the nine clans were taken away and exiled when the Guardian Decree came.
At this time, Yang Baocheng in the cell was wearing a dirty prison uniform, his hair was scattered and dusty, and he was gray-headed, and he no longer had the atmosphere of the fourth rank of the chief envoy of the state.
A little boy who looked to be only five or six years old was burrowing into his arms, sobbing quietly.
"Grandpa, don't you always say: act upright, not afraid of the ghost knocking on the door? What the hell is going on this time! ”
Yang Baocheng shook his head slightly with a bitter face, reached out and gently stroked his favorite grandson, and sighed:
"The one who knocked on the door this time is probably not a little ghost, I'm afraid it's a demon god who can wrestle with Lord Hades!"
Yang Baocheng put his arm around the boy's head and held him in his arms, looked back at the only iron window on the wall, and muttered:
"David, it's going to be difficult......
He worried about David until he died, but he was infamous through the ages......
After this incident, Zhou Tong, who was the first to make the most contributions, was soon transferred to the Beijing Division as an official and was arranged to be a chief in the Ministry of Officials.
This is not an idle position, but a real power, basically looking forward to climbing up in the future, which can be described as a promising future.
Zhou Tong was overjoyed, just as Wang Duobao said, after this incident, not only did his mother have the medicinal materials to continue his life for the next ten years, but he could also be promoted to make a fortune!
On the first day he came to Jingshi, he couldn't wait to prepare gifts to enter the palace and come to Wang Duobao's palace to thank him.
When Wang Duobao heard the news, his face became difficult to look at.
While he hurriedly walked out to meet Zhou Tong, he kept secretly scolding this person in his heart for being a pig brain.
You were reprimanded by me on the Qingzhou Road, and now you have just been promoted to Beijing and you will prepare a gift to thank you, what kind of truth is this?
When such a thing reached Wei Shi's ears, wouldn't it almost confirm that he and Zhou Tong were secretly colluding, and it would arouse suspicion!
It seems that he has to put on another big show......
