Chapter 691: Severely punish corrupt officials
No diamonds, no porcelain work.
In later generations, Ying Feiyu grew up by the sea.
His grandparents were fishermen, and he had already learned to swim when he couldn't walk on a difficult road!
So this little bit of water is a piece of cake for him!
didn't expect Ying Zheng to react so much!
Looking at that posture, it seems that if he doesn't come up again, this guy will jump off himself!
"What are you doing in the water? Come on up! ”
Ying Zheng stood with his eyes and shouted angrily.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, come ......!"
Wang Ben stretched out his hand and pulled Xiao Zhengtai to the shore.
Ying Feiyu is like a duck that has just come out of the water, shaking the water droplets on his body!
"Fortunately, the weather is not too cold at this time, and I will have a bowl of hot ginger soup when I go back, otherwise I will really get typhoid fever!"
Ying Zheng glanced at him and kept muttering.
"Erchen knows!"
Ying Feiyu twisted the gown on her body impatiently to minimize the moisture on it.
Should I say it or not, the wind after autumn is indeed cold, and after the clothes are wet, it feels cold!
"What did you kid suddenly jump into the water for?"
"Looking for clues, of course"
"Looking for clues in the water?"
"That's right! Erchen thought that since the woodcutter heard the sound of the chisel hitting the stone, but the gap here was very natural, and there was no trace of artificial excavation, then this gap must be under the water! That's why Erchen jumped into the water and went to look for it! ”
"Oh! I see! ”
Everyone suddenly realized.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right, why didn't we think of it?"
Chun Yuyue's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What clues can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince find?" ”
"Hmmm! At the bottom of the embankment, there are traces of artificial excavation, which loosens the structure of the embankment, coupled with the frequent rain this year, the water level rises, and the pressure is too high, which led to this major flood! ”
Ying Feiyu nodded firmly and told the underwater situation.
"Really?"
Ying Zheng frowned, his face displeased.
"Then can there be a fake? If the father doesn't believe it, he can send someone to check again! ”
Ying Feiyu snorted towards the lake.
"No need!"
It's not that Ying Zheng doesn't believe it, it's just that he doesn't want to accept it.
He would rather believe that it was a natural disaster than that the flood was man-made!
"Who do you think would be so scheming to dive to the bottom of a lake and dig a dam? Is it the remnants of the Six Kingdoms? Or the old Huns? Or are they Qiang and Western Regions? ”
Ying Zheng led everyone to the shore while studying.
"I don't know this son! Erchen didn't stay here all day? ”
Ying Feiyu pursed her lips, fiddling with the chisel she had dug out of the mud.
"Tongwu Hou, after you go back, immediately send someone to visit the city to see who has been haunting this place for a while!"
Ying Zheng gave the order.
"Yes!"
Wang Ben, who followed behind, gave up his hand to receive the order.
……
When they returned to the city government, Kang Anping was already drinking tea and waiting, and when he saw them coming back, he quickly got up.
was about to report the results of the interrogation, but found that everyone was heavy and seemed to be in a bad mood!
"What's going on?"
Kang Anping didn't dare to speak rashly, but leaned over to Chun Yuyue's side and asked in a low voice.
"See the chisel that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has placed on the table? It was found in the silt inside the lake! ”
Chun Yuyue pointed to the heavy chisel and said.
"How can there be a chisel in the lake?"
"That's what I'm talking about! So His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went into the water to check it out, and sure enough, there were traces of artificial excavation! ”
"Sizzle......"
Kang Anping suddenly frowned.
"In this case, the real reason for the breach of this levee may not be the heavy rainfall this year?"
"That's right!"
Chun Yuyue nodded slightly.
"Kang Aiqing, how are you over there?"
Ying Zheng leaned back in his chair, took a short rest, and asked in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, if I Lao Kang comes out, there will be nothing that can't be tried......!"
Kang Anping stood up with a slight expression of interest and continued: "Those guys, just separated them, and they all spit out a lot of information at the slightest provocation! Only that Jiang Dalei was unconvinced by his neck, and after being beaten by a fat beating, he was also honest! ”
"Oh? What did they say? ”
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Your Majesty, look ......!"
Kang Anping took out a stack of testimonies from his arms and handed them to Ying Zheng, "Here are all confessions from them, including accepting bribes, forcing good people to become prostitutes, oppressing the people, etc., one by one, there are too many!" ”
Ying Zheng nodded and looked carefully one by one.
Each one is a confession from a different person, and at the bottom of the confession, there is a handprint that they personally pressed!
"Good! All right! This is my official! Parents of the people! Ha ha! That's great! ”
The more Ying Zheng looked, the more gloomy his face became, and the last punch smashed directly on the table, "Bang!" ”
"Your Majesty is angry!"
"Anger? How can I calm my anger? If it weren't for this flood, I might not have been able to find out so many things in person! The people here may not be deceived by these officials who are inferior to pigs and dogs for a long time! ”
Ying Zheng angrily passed the testimony to Chun Yuyue and others.
Everyone was also indignant after seeing it.
"When Yuan Pengxing was an official in Xianyang in the past, he looked like a human and a dog, but I really didn't expect that after leaving His Majesty's eyelids, he immediately changed his face!"
"Yes! These guys, officials protect each other, and specialize in oppressing the people! ”
"Yuan Pengxing ordered to control the victims, don't let them scatter, as a result, Jiang Dalei will control everyone in one go, if we don't come, I don't know how many of these people can survive......!"
Testimonies kept circulating, and officials gritted their teeth.
"Father, have you noticed? There is nothing to do with the Nanzhou county order here! ”
Ying Feiyu briefly flipped through the testimony and opened her mouth in surprise.
"Huh? It seems to be true! ”
After saying this, everyone suddenly remembered.
This records Jiang Hua, Yuan Pengxing, Jiang Dalei and other officials protecting each other and oppressing the people.
The only thing is that there is nothing to do with the county order!
So everyone all set their eyes on Kang Anping!
"Your Majesty, that county commander Dou Huai just has an empty name, and in fact has no power! Everything up and down the city of Nanzhou is decided by Jiang Dalei, the nephew of Juncheng! So, he didn't get involved in any of these things! It's just a free salary every year! ”
Kang Anping reported the news he received truthfully.
"Humph! If you can't do things for the people and don't have the ability to restrain your subordinates, what's the point of such an official doing ......? ”
Although the county order Dou Huai did not do anything hurtful to the heavens and reason, his connivance was to help the abuse, and Yingzheng was also angry, "From now on, the Nanzhou city and county order will be dismissed immediately, sent back to his hometown, and will never be hired!" ”
"Yuan Pengxing, the county guard of Huiji County, did not report knowingly, lied, concealed reports, connived at subordinates, failed to supervise, accepted bribes, and was punished for several crimes, and was immediately decided! The county lieutenant and the county captain are all distributed! ”
"Nanzhou City and County Cheng, who has done a lot of evil, will be decided, and his family and children will all be distributed!"
Ying Zheng pondered for a moment and officially gave the order.
