Ye Chengxue nodded: "The student is exactly." ”

Zhang Gui couldn't help but smile secretly behind his back.

Let Ye Chengxue contact Wu Xing, be Wu Xing's staff master, and keep an eye on Wu Xing's every move, these are what Zhang Gui secretly arranged.

It is impossible for Zhang Gui not to take the initiative to spy on a civilian official who actually took the initiative to carry out a pilot reform of the law and still has contradictions with himself.

"Ye Chengxue! You dare to betray the old man! ”

Wu Xing was furious because of this.

Ye Chengxue didn't pay attention to Wu Xing, and only said: "Wu Xing colluded with the gentry in Yongcheng to take advantage of the people, and the students repeatedly dissuaded him, but he just didn't listen, and the students had to temporarily forbear, keep their evidence, and when the court knew about it in the future, so that the court would know his true face, and now fortunately, His Majesty is here, so that the students can directly expose their treacherous face in front of His Majesty!" ”

After hearing this, Sun Chengzong sighed: "Skynet is magnificent but not leaky. ”

Tianqi also asked Wu Xing: "Wu Xing, what else do you have to say now?" ”

Wu Xing panicked: "Minister, minister, minister." ”

Seeing that he was incoherent, Tianqi ordered Ye Chengxue to get the evidence.

It didn't take long for Ye Chengxue to take the evidence and hand it over to the apocalypse.

"Your Majesty, this profit distribution document is in duplicate, one copy for each gentry participating in the distribution of profits, one copy for Wu Xing, and Wu Xing, the county governor, is naturally kept by the students."

"The one that the student brought is Wu Xing's."

"The reason why Wu Xing wrote it himself is naturally because the gentry are afraid that Wu Xing will regret it, and they need to do it as a handle, so that they are willing to donate silver with confidence, which is also the way that local officials and the gentry have colluded over the years."

Ye Chengxue said in detail.

Tianqi listened and looked at the contents of the document, and after seeing with his own eyes how Wuxing, the magistrate of the county and the gentry, set up a name, how to return the donations of the gentry and how to divide the people's money, the evil fire had already ignited in his stomach.

Boom!

Tianqi kicked Wu Xing over and scolded: "Damn! ”

"Spread my will, according to the list on this document, go and bring all the gentry and family masters who participated in the exploitation of the people! Those who disobey the order and do not come will be punished! ”

Apocalypse then commanded in a cold voice.

"Yes!"

Here, Tianqi handed the document to Sun Chengzong again: "Sir, take a look, see how Wu Zhixian, whom you value a lot, is a parent." ”

"Yes!"

Sun Chengzong took the document and read it carefully.

When he saw it, Sun Chengzong was shocked and said: "It's incredible, it's incredible!" How can they be so mad! ”

After saying that, Sun Chengzong couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Wu Xing and others really taught Sun Chengzong a lesson.

Sun Chengzong, who had never been a state or county parent official and was a child of a family, never thought that the officials and gentry below would use the virtue and politics he advocated so flexibly.

Not long after, Gui Guangzu and other Yongcheng gentry were escorted and ordered to kneel in front of Tianqi and others.

Gui Guangzu and other gentry naturally did not dare to resist.

After all, they are also afraid of death.

What's more, there are quite a few officers and soldiers who have come.

Looking at these gentry, Tianqi didn't have a good face, and only said coldly: "I have already obtained evidence that you conspired with Wu Xing, the magistrate of the county, to exploit the people in the name of building a academy and repairing water canals, and the evidence shows that you still took a large share of the exploitation of the people!" It can be seen that now a large number of people have been displaced and even starved to death in the wilderness, and even provoked a civil uprising, you should be responsible! ”

"Wronged! We were also forced, and it was Wu Xing, the magistrate, who forced us to do this! ”

Gui Guangzu shouted like this.

"If they can force you, why do they let you take a large portion?"

Apocalypse then asked.

Gui Guangzu said: "We don't understand, the county magistrate wants us to take a large portion, and we don't dare to refuse!" ”

Tianqi laughed angrily: "He wants you to rebel, do you also rebel?" In any case, in black and white, you did participate in the exploitation of the people, damn it! ”

As he spoke, Tianqi ordered: "Take these gentry and Wu Xing, as well as the traitor Jia Shiguo, who also exploited the people in the name of recruiting troops and buying horses after the rebellion, and send them to parade in the streets!" and summoned the people of the county, in front of them, beheaded all the bad gentry and family owners, although the traitor Jia Shiguo was an official to force the people to rebel, but after the rebellion, he also brutalized the people, and colluded with corrupt officials, and was also beheaded; And the traitor Wu Xing should be severely punished because he is the bane of all these sins, so he was sentenced to Ling Chi capital punishment! In addition, they all have no home! ”

Wu Xing was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, please calm your anger, and please think twice!" Although the minister is guilty, the dignity of the court is more important! Your Majesty, you really don't want the people of the world to think that even the imperial court is so unbearable, right?! Your Majesty think twice! ”

Tianqi snorted and ignored Wu Xing.

And Wu Xing shouted at Sun Chengzong: "Pavilion Elder, plead for the lower officials!" Elder Ge, you can't hope that my Ming Dynasty has an example of Ling Chi Hanlin Qingliu. ”

Wu Xing said and asked Qian Longxi for help: "Qian Gong, everyone is from Hanlin Qingliu, you can't see death without help!" ”

Qian Longxi looked at Sun Chengzong, and he didn't dare to say anything now.

At this time, Tianqi and Zhang Gui also looked at Sun Chengzong, and they were very curious about what Sun Chengzong would say.

Sun Chengzong stood up at this time and said, "Your Majesty Shengming! Now that the bones of the scholars have to be rebuilt, it is necessary to use this strict law to revitalize the bones! ”

Apocalypse nodded: "What Mr. said is true!" ”

Wu Xing was very disappointed after hearing this, and he was also very desperate, and in despair, he also scolded presumptuously: "Tyrant, tyrant, tyrant...... If you treat the doctor so harshly, you won't end well. ”

"Your Majesty! Please add Wu Xing to 500 knives!

”

Sun Chengzong suddenly shouted at this time.

He was really angry.

He didn't expect this Wu Xing to be so obsessed, and he didn't even have the slightest idea of loyalty.

In order to correct the concept of loyalty to the monarch that he believed in his heart, Sun Chengzong made this kind of cruel request to Tianqi for the first time.

Wu Xing suddenly fell silent.

Apocalypse said without hesitation: "Quasi! ”

"Elder Ge! Pavilion Old! Don't! The lower official is wrong, the lower official will not scold, and the lower official will not slander the monarch's father! Xia Guan doesn't dare anymore! ”

Wu Xing shouted in despair.

Gui Guangzu is also begging for mercy here.

But begging for mercy is useless.

Not long after, Wu Xing and Gui Guangzu were escorted to the streets to show the public.

Seeing this, the people smiled one after another, even if they were hungry and had no strength, they still grinned very widely.

"Ahh

Wu Xing was then picked up and screamed.

Swish!

Swish!

Swish!

And with a flash of spatula light, Gui Guangzu and other gentry who exploited the people were also beheaded.

Next, the property of these gentry was naturally confiscated, and the fields annexed from the people were also distributed to the local people by Lu Xiangsheng, who temporarily held the post of prefect.

In addition, all the adjutant officials and subordinates of the county government were dismissed for their involvement in this matter.

The whole Yongcheng County is a new one.

But Apocalypse is still in a heavy mood because of this.

His trust in the civil service as a whole has now deteriorated, so to speak, severely.

After all, before this, almost everyone in the entire civil government system was praising Wu Xing.

Tianqi couldn't help but say to Zhang Guiyan: "Fortunately, you let me come to see it in person, otherwise, I would really be kept in the dark by the ministers." ”

"Your Majesty, please sin!"

Sun Chengzong also said with a heavy heart at this time, and said: "As a cabinet minister, he is also a close minister, but he is not cautious enough and almost misled His Majesty. What's more, now that Wu Xing has scourged Yongcheng like this, it is indeed related to the minister, if it were not for the minister to intercede for him, he would not have had the opportunity to come to Yongcheng. ”

"Alright! Mr. doesn't have to blame himself, sending Wu Xing to Yongcheng was my own decision, because he told me that he also wanted to try to change the law like Xia Yunyi, so as to prove that Hanlin Qingliu is not an empty talker, I believe him, if you want to say guilty, the first one is me! ”

Apocalypse said again, "This matter will end here!" ”

"Yes!"

Then, Tianqi said: "It turns out that Wu Xing is not reliable, but I don't know what Xia Yunyi is doing in Suizhou?" ”

"When it comes to Xia Yunyi, the minister has always had a doubt, why did the officials of the Guide Mansion ask the homeless people to lie that they are from Suizhou?"

Sun Chengzong said at this time.

Apocalypse nodded: "This I am also confused. ”

Zhang Gui gave Ye Chengxue a look at this time.

Ye Chengxue walked over and said, "Your Majesty, the student knows the reason for this!" ”

"Speak!"

Ye Chengxue replied: "Because the governor of Guide Mansion Yin and the traitor Wu Xing are dissatisfied with Xia Yunyi, and Wu Xing saw that a large number of displaced people were born because of his excessive exploitation of the people, so he took this opportunity to buy off the Guide prefect and forced the internal refugees to lie that they were from Suizhou, otherwise they would be escorted back to their hometowns to be killed on the grounds of being thieves!" ”

"It's despicable!"

Tianqi scolded and asked, "Why are they dissatisfied with Xia Yunyi?" ”

"Because Xia Yunyi is a person from Xilin Academy, and even more from Xichang, they despise people related to Uncle Guo, and even want to make His Majesty dissatisfied with Uncle Guo in the future in this way."

Ye Chengxue replied.

Tianqi lowered his face after hearing this, and then ordered: "Pass the decree, the prefect of Guide will be sent to prison, and the Dongchang will be strictly interrogated!" ”

Sun Chengzong couldn't help but sigh here: "The minister didn't expect that it was us civil ministers who really had prejudices, and the minister was ashamed!" ”

"Elder Ge doesn't have to blame himself anymore."

Zhang Gui said a word, and said to Tianqi: "Your Majesty, it's time to go to Suizhou to have a look." ”

Tianqi nodded: "Well, go to Suizhou to have a look." ”

When Tianqi and his party entered Suizhou, it was noon.

The autumn sun is shining, the smoke of the cooking is rising, the sound of chickens and dogs is heard, and the children are playing in the village, all with ruddy faces and thick clothes.

"There were no starving homeless people."

When Sun Chengzong saw it, he couldn't help but sigh first.
