Soil erosion is not a trivial matter, if there is any accident in the future, won't the imperial court still have to send silver two?

These local officials don't care so much at all, they just want to know how much money they can put in their pockets, and if the situation allows, the more they can earn, the better.

Because it was completely dark now, Qi Moxiao and the others couldn't continue to stay in this place, so they decided to go back and rest first, and then come to this place tomorrow to call all the officials over to punish them.

Qi Moxiao and they came back with a belly full of anger, and when the county magistrate saw it, he hurriedly walked up and brought the snacks he had prepared in advance to Qi Moxiao's room.

And want to know what the situation is like on the other side of the canal.

Qi Moxiao was so angry that he didn't want to mention the matter of that place anymore, but Yun Zhuyue explained it to him in a good-natured manner.

After listening to the county order, he also said angrily: "I can't take care of the affairs of that place, plus they are specially sent by the imperial court, I thought there would be nothing to do, and I was polite to them, but I don't hide that they have lived here for a while, but they think that my environment here is too bad, and the food is not as good as the capital, and they are all kinds of picky about me, but fortunately, they didn't live for too long, and left the next day." ”

"Otherwise, I really can't afford to serve, I originally thought that our living environment here is very far from the capital, so after learning your identity, I just want to send the best to you, but I didn't expect you to be so diligent and thrifty, which is enough to see how luxurious the life of those important officials of the court is on weekdays."

These words are actually equivalent to directly offending the emperor's majesty, but this county order is obviously not worried about this, he has been pressing this sentence in his heart for a long time, and he is going to be wrong at this moment at the risk of being beheaded.

Just want Qi Moxiao to understand some things, sometimes some officials of the imperial court have a great advantage because of the superiority of the family.

But the real Qing officials were not treated so well, and they were also suppressed by the people above.

Because the people above are afraid that after they reach the emperor, they will be developed into important by the emperor, so that they will be very important after that, and it will affect their importance in front of the emperor at that time.

What's more, Qi Moxiao didn't have much to do when he first took office, and there happened to be a lack of a few right-hand men around him, and the people below must have all kinds of disputes.

Especially those who are not as strong as them, they even rely on the real power in their hands to suppress the people below in various ways, and do not let them emerge, because they are afraid that one day the emperor will find out their benefits, and then he will never reuse them.

Qi Moxiao also understood that this county order was taking a certain risk to remind him that it was time to rectify the atmosphere in the court, and he was also a little shocked at the moment.

I didn't expect such a small county order to have such a vision, and it seems to be a good seedling that has been buried.

It's just that the official position in this county is too low, and if you bring him to the capital all of a sudden, it seems a little too heavy, and it is very likely that he will die at that time.

So let him climb up slowly.

Although it will take a certain amount of time, at least your life can be saved, so that you will not be afraid of those people in the capital and lose your life.

So he asked the prefectural magistrate how to deal with the matter.

I want him to come to a good conclusion, if his method can be reused, and there can also be a reason to reward him better, so that he can climb faster.

The county magistrate thought for a moment and then said: "Of course, it is to rectify the responsible officials on the spot in front of the people, which can not only play a role in calming people's hearts, but the most important point is that it can also establish authority in this place!" ”

There was basically no difference between his method and Yun Zhuyue, which made Qi Moxiao appreciate him a little more.

With the vision of a county magistrate, it seems that he is indeed a buried talent.

At that moment, Qi Moxiao made up his mind: "Tomorrow, you take the time to go with us!" I'm going to punish the officials in charge in front of the people! ”

The county commander didn't know that Yun Zhuyue had thought of this idea before this, and thought that Qi Moxiao had reused his method, and his heart was extremely moved for a while.

"Yes! Commanded! ”

The next day, Qi Moxiao took Yun Zhuyue and the county order to the other side of the canal, but the envoys of Nanyu and Nanxiang and Nanhai said that they would come over to join in the fun, and Qi Moxiao had no other way and agreed to rush together.

So the group set off in a mighty way.

When they arrived at the canal, the workers here were working hard, and when the workers yesterday saw Qi Moxiao and them coming again, they instantly wanted to drive them away in anger to prevent them from continuing to stop their work.

And Qi Moxiao called the person in charge of this place directly below.

When the official in charge heard that someone was coming from above, he hurried over, and the moment he saw Qi Moxiao, he was so frightened that he knelt directly on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic.

Yun Zhuyue thought that he recognized Qi Moxiao coming, but in fact, the other party was just because of his weak heart, so he made such an aggressive move.

"Are you guilty?" Qi Moxiao's face was not very good, and he asked coldly.

The official in charge also tried to quibble: "The minister doesn't know what he is doing wrong." ”

Yun Zhuyue sneered and told all of what he had done, and the officials in charge couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat after hearing it, but they didn't expect Qi Moxiao and them to know everything!

Qi Moxiao said indifferently: "Do you still want to deny it now?" ”

The official in charge knelt on the ground with a thud on the spot, and said in a panic: "The minister is guilty, the minister is guilty!" It's just that the time given by the emperor is too short, and I don't have any other way! ”

Qi Moxiao was even more angry, he didn't expect that at this juncture, he would dare to throw the pot on the emperor's body!

At the beginning, they promised to build the canal in a short time, so he agreed.

I didn't expect it to be his fault now!

And didn't he deliberately mislead these ordinary workers when he said it in front of so many ordinary people, and the current emperor would only oppress them excessively?

Yun Zhuyue also said a little angrily: "If I remember correctly, it was you who promised the emperor that you could complete this project in a short time, so the emperor made such an order, right?" Immediately, I seriously asked you if you could complete it in such a short time, and it was your repeated promises that the emperor agreed! ”

"Now you are throwing all the fault on the emperor, do you want the emperor to bear this pot? Or do you think that it is entirely the emperor's responsibility that the people of this place cannot complete the project? Is it because the emperor didn't have enough time with you? ”

"Then I have to ask you carefully, how much money did the emperor give you when he asked you to build this project? How much money do you give these workers a day? You are guilty of such a desperate attempt to squeeze people so desperately for the sake of violence! ”

Those workers surrounded Qi Moxiao and them, and after hearing Yun Zhuyue's aggressive questioning, they were a little curious about what her identity was.

The officials in charge were equally curious about who Yun Zhuyue was and why did he know about the affairs of the imperial court?

But after all, Qi Moxiao was personally sent by the emperor to supervise the work, and now that there is a problem with the project on this side of the canal, he is directly responsible, so it is necessary to take responsibility.

On the spot, he begged for mercy and wanted Qi Moxiao to deal with it lightly!

But yesterday, Qi Moxiao and Yun Zhuyue had already discussed how to deal with them, and now in the face of this person's plea, Qi Moxiao not only did not have any sympathy and soft-heartedness, but became even more angry.

"You can intercede with me here, but have you ever been soft on these ordinary workers when they intercede with you? Has your conscience been eaten by dogs? The emperor sent you to the canal to build a project because he trusted you, and you promised the emperor that you would be able to do this, if you couldn't do it, you could ask the emperor to send a certain number of people over. ”

"But instead of doing this, you have excessively oppressed these workers, do you look at the appearance of these workers? Which of them is not skinny? Doing such a difficult job, but you can't even feed them! Do you dare to say that this is what the emperor demanded? ”

"I didn't see you mention this matter when the emperor allocated the money, and now all the responsibility is put on the emperor, so should I tell the emperor about this matter? This is a great sin of the Nine Clans! ”

The more Qi Moxiao thought about it, the more angry he became, and he wanted to kick this person to death, but in the end, he forcibly endured it, and just coldly ordered: "Drag this person down for me!" Behead the public at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon! ”

He just wants to tell everyone in this way that the emperor is fair to everyone, and there is absolutely no excessive oppression of ordinary workers.

When everyone heard that this man was going to be beheaded, they were so happy that he made them not even have enough to eat, and he insisted that they work hard, and the most important point was to tell them that if they did not complete the work on this side of the canal in a short time, they would not be paid!

You must know that all the money they earn is hard-earned money, and if they can't even get paid, their hard work will be in vain.

There are so many people in the family waiting for their wages to eat, but they can't even get their hard-earned money, how unwilling it is to imagine how unwilling.

Now that the emperor has come to call the shots for them, they can finally get out of the sea of suffering!
