Chapter 1403 Rectify officialdom

has shocked the prominent families in Jiangnan, and the next step is to clean up the officialdom in Jiangnan.

The deep-rooted local forces are inevitably inseparable from officialdom.

Li Qinzai has a list in his hand, which is the relationship between Jiangnan officials and major noble families.

This list was found out by the Baiqi Division, and there is no need to doubt the authenticity, Li Qinzai has studied this list, and he can only say that it is intricate, you have me, I have you.

If another courtier comes to Jiangnan, he will feel deeply powerless in the face of such a situation where the forces are so close to the officialdom.

Whether it is the Wangwang clan or the officialdom, there is no way to start, but as long as one person is moved, it will trigger a series of chain reactions.

Unfortunately, this time it was Li Qinzai who went down to the south of the Yangtze River.

What others can't do, he can do.

He who others dare not move, he dares to move.

To clean up the officialdom in Jiangnan, it is necessary to use thunderous means, and those who should be killed and those who should be spared will not be merciful.

So the first sentence Li Qinzai said made more than ten officials kneel on the ground in fright.

Of course, these more than ten officials are weak-minded, because they are not clean.

Measure the land within the jurisdiction of the state and county, and register it in the government, which is very famous.

As long as the bribe is large enough, the pen in the hands of these officials can fill in the numbers as much as they want.

10,000 acres of land, they dare to write it as 10 acres, so more than 9,000 acres of land were concealed in this way, anyway, it is the land of the imperial court, the support of the imperial court, they are not distressed.

And what these officials get is nothing more than hundreds of bribes, and since then this land has been hidden forever, and even the successors dare not lift the lid.

It can be said that this group of officials in charge of land registration is directly responsible for causing huge losses to the imperial court.

If Li Qinzai wants to clean up the Jiangnan officialdom, he must first stab this group of people.

Sitting cross-legged on the futon, Li Qinzai looked at the group of kneeling officials with a smile.

"I didn't even name names, you guys got down on your knees, it's good, it looks like you all know what you've done......"

More than a dozen officials knelt on the ground, their faces colorless and their bodies trembling.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "Land registration and bookkeeping, every number you write down is responsible for yourself, and you have received the benefits of the wang clan, so you act as a tiger and hide the land from the court. ”

"I don't know, I still think that your allegiance is not to the Son of Heaven, but to the head of the local noble family, do you think that this matter has been done seamlessly, and no one will pursue it for the rest of your life?"

Officials hung their heads in silence.

Before Li Qinzai went to Jiangnan, they really thought so.

Being in Jiangnan officialdom, they have a very clear understanding of the situation in Jiangnan, if the Qincha who went down to Jiangnan was not Li Qinzai, they really felt that no one would find out about this matter, and even if they did, they would not dare to squeak, because no one dared to touch the Jiangnan Wang clan, and even the Son of Heaven was jealous of the Wang clan.

However, the Qincha who came to Jiangnan was Li Qinzai, a ruthless and uninhibited young county prince.

One of the eight wang clans has been wiped out by him, and the remaining seven families are trembling and dare not move.

So, how could he not dare to lift the lid when he concealed the land and falsified the register?

How happy it was to accept bribes at the beginning, how desperate it is to kneel in front of Li Qinzai now.

They knew that their end was coming, and Li Qinzai shocked the Jiangnan Wang clan, and it was their turn next.

Li Qinzai's face became cold, and he said lightly: "The state and county records are on the record, and you have tampered with the land and acres of land, and now I will give you a chance to quibble." ”

"Is there anyone who wants to explain? You can make up any reason, as long as you dare to make it up, I dare to believe it, such as the wang clan holding a knife on your neck to force you to tamper with something. ”

No one squeaked.

No one is stupid, things have come to this point, who dares to quibble?

Li Qinzai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that no one had spoken in the hall for a long time.

"Someone!" Li Qinzai suddenly shouted.

Under the corridor of the hall, dozens of subordinates appeared and hugged their fists.

Li Qinzai took out a list from his arms, threw it down the hall, and said lightly: "Take all the people on the list, send someone to escort Chang'an, and hand it over to the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department for questioning." ”

The tribesmen rushed into the hall and took the people in order according to the list.

The officials who were taken down did not struggle or defend themselves, but burst into tears, allowing the subordinates to strip off their official robes and silently tie their arms, and the subordinates pressed their heads and were escorted out of the hall in a half-bowed posture.

In the blink of an eye, the dozens of officials in the hall were suddenly half empty.

The rest of the officials sitting in the hall were all pale and silent.

Li Qinzai looked around at the officials and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, I won't wronged anyone, it was just a small episode just now, in general, I am still very simple and kind, after you have more contact with me, you will know that I am a person full of advantages......"

A group of officials tried to laugh together, ah, yes, yes, yes, you are a very simple and kind person, and you only occasionally kill a few people intermittently to have fun......

Everyone stared at Li Qinzai, and when they saw him slowly take out a list from his arms, everyone couldn't help but be frightened, and several people began to swing.

It's not over yet?

How can you get another list?

Looking at the long list in Li Qinzai's hand, the pupils in everyone's eyes dilated and narrowed, and the frightened expressions could no longer be concealed.

I feel like a chicken in a cage, picked and slaughtered.

The frightened expressions of everyone fell on Li Qinzai's eyes, and they couldn't help but chuckle twice.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not going to kill people for a while......"

Flicking the list with his fingers, Li Qinzai said leisurely: "Those people were questioned just now, all of you who stay in the hall at the moment, you are actually not so innocent, but I said that I am a simple and kind person, and I should not make too many killings in one day, so I will write it down for you for the time being." ”

"Now I want to talk about the second thing......" Li Qinzai said slowly: "The number of acres of land registered in the major prefectures and counties is all invalid, and you immediately arrange for officials and scribes to go to the countryside to re-measure the land and register it under their respective jurisdictions." ”

Staring at everyone's faces, Li Qinzai said word by word: "This time, I want real data, who dares to falsify it again, show it to the public on the spot, I'm not joking, you must have heard of my methods." ”

"Not only the acres of land, but also the data of landless farmers in various states and counties, the data of tenants under the names of the major wang clans, the data of the distribution of land and property between the children of the direct and collateral clans of the wang clan, and so on."

"I know that most of you here have something to do with the wang clan, some are members of the wang clan, some are former officials or guests, if you feel embarrassed to stand between the court and the wang clan, you can resign immediately, and i will approve it now."

"If you don't resign, and secretly poke and poke the court to help the Wangzu pit, it won't be so easy for me to find out, and I'll tell you one more thing, the number of acres of fields in the counties and counties in the south of the Yangtze River has already been clearly investigated, I will take out your data for comparison, if the data does not match, hehe......"
