Chapter 908: The Punishment of the Nobles and the Major Discovery of the Archaeological Team
On April 30, 128, the first year of the universe, the archaeological team of the Ouya Cross Kingdom was conducting a series of traces of the underground location of the Noah's spaceship obtained by the Dion Imperial Kingdom.
And on the same day, the big domestic media of the Tianyi Empire were broadcasting live in front of the gate of a marquis's mansion at this moment.
The Marquis is a man named Tadeush, who was the hero of the extermination of Weng back then, and was once a major general of the Skywing Mercenary Regiment.
At this moment, the Marquis of Tadeus, whose hands were handcuffed and backhandcuffed, was dragged out of the gate of the Marquis Palace under the escort of the teams of the two major departments of the Criminal Department and the Anti-Corruption Bureau.
The Marquis of Tadeush struggled and shouted as he was being dragged by someone: "Long Fei, you bastard! A bunch of our brothers fought the world for you, helped you take down the entire Martian circle, and made you the emperor of this planet! I didn't expect you to kill us heroes! The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooking! You're a fucking ungrateful emperor! ”
The Marquis of Tadeusz shouted hysterically, and those who did not know thought that the Marquis of Tadeush had been cooked by a rabbit and a dead dog flying by the dragon.
The Marquis of Tadeush continued to scold, and then was pressed by the relevant law enforcement officers to enter the escort car, and the reporters filmed the escort car driving away.
Local reporters at the scene reported that the state authorities have struck hard in the past few days and arrested many nobles involved in fraud.
It turned out that 8 days ago, a piece of news shocked the Tianyi Empire, that is, the 3 electromagnetic rail elevator stations currently under construction in the Tianyi Empire were revealed to be involved in major fraud and internal tofu slag projects.
Long Fei and the ministers immediately set up relevant investigation organizations to investigate, and even Long Fei gave great power to the investigation organization.
In addition to the discovery of 3 electromagnetic rail elevator stations, 2 of which have tofu slag projects and the incident of cutting corners, it was also found that the collusion between officials and businessmen was also detected.
Long Fei immediately ordered that all nobles were not allowed to go abroad, and the investigation organization would conduct an investigation, and all nobles must cooperate.
】
Many nobles were involved, and some nobles were in their own fiefdoms, selling the resources or raw materials needed for the electromagnetic rail elevator station, and the inferior goods were sold at good prices.
In addition to being sentenced to prison and emptying their property by the court, their aristocratic status was also directly confiscated by Long Fei, and after being released from prison, they were like ordinary civilians, but these nobles need to work hard several times more than others to improve their chances in the future.
There are also some aristocrats who are very deeply involved, in addition to colluding with related merchants, they even cut corners or make a pile of finished products of tofu residue in the contracting project.
Among these nobles was the Marquis of Tadeus.
Nobles such as the Marquis of Tadeush were petitioned by the court to be stripped of their nobility, confiscated of all their property, and sentenced to slavery if the evidence was conclusive.
Officials, businessmen and persons involved in these cases of fraud can range from imprisonment and a hefty fine to confiscation of their property and imprisonment.
In the past few days, countless children of nobles, merchants, etc., who have been involved in fraud, have all knelt in front of the gate of the palace, begging Emperor Longfei to be lenient.
Many children of nobles put out banners, asking the emperor to read the merits of their parents and open up the net.
Even some nobles came to beg the emperor to forgive those meritorious heroes.
When he was in the last dynasty, many ministers and meritorious heroes pleaded with Long Fei.
"Ladies and gentlemen, do you think I haven't thought about the merits of these noble heroes? Imagine if the electromagnetic rail elevator station collapsed because of their cutting corners and tofu slag project, and countless precious lives died in this accident, then these debts would be counted on whose heads, and on my head. Long Fei pointed to his head.
"Those people who have lost their loved ones, it is not these nobles who will resent them at that time, but me, the electromagnetic orbital station was built by my order, and these people were killed because I ordered it to be built, and then these sins will be borne by me."
"It's not that I don't want to spare them, but I must be responsible for the thousands of people in the Tianyi Empire, severely punish these noble heroes, and also tell all the heroes that they can't do whatever they want because they made great contributions to me back then, and use their achievements back then as a gold medal to avoid death."
Long Fei's words left everyone speechless, but some ministers were worried because there were more than 10,000 officials involved in these frauds.
These imprisoned officials will create a situation where some departments are understaffed, affecting the functioning of the government, because it takes time to train officials.
In just a few days, more than 10,000 officials have been imprisoned, which has already affected the operation of some departments to a greater or lesser extent.
Some ministers told Long Fei about these problems, hoping that the emperor would spare some of the officials involved in minor fraud and let them return to their posts.
But Long Fei refused, "No matter who commits a crime, whether it is big or small, it must be punished, and this is also an explanation to the people of the empire, whether it is an official, a nobleman or a rich person, it is all judged according to the laws of the empire." ”
Everyone knew that the emperor's attitude was to make an example of these people.
One of the electromagnetic rail elevator stations without problems continues to be constructed, and the other two electromagnetic rail elevator stations are temporarily suspended for a series of investigations.
There are also many officials, nobles and merchants whose properties have been confiscated, and the cash confiscated alone currently exceeds 2 trillion Earth Circle coins, not counting those real estates.
Those nobles who had fiefs and could get part of the taxes, after being sentenced, the original fiefs were also taken back by the state, and the state did not have to share a part of the taxes received by the land to these nobles.
Shalamanda was working on and signing documents in her legal department building, watching as her former colleagues and subordinates were either sentenced to prison or convicted of crimes.
Shalamanda looked at the fate of these people, and could only say: "The hearts of the people are not enough to swallow the elephant, but the nobles with fiefs can still be so greedy to receive taxes, and in the end they ended up like this, which can only be said to be self-inflicted." After saying that, he couldn't help but shake his head.
On May 10, 128 years of the universe, the archaeological team of the European and Ya Crusades, after unremitting efforts to search, found some relevant evidence, which can confirm that the Noahs are the gods recorded in their national canon.
The team sent by the Ministry of Culture of the Celestial Wing Empire followed the archaeological team, and there were also mixed agents in the team, watching every move of the archaeological team.
The underground level searched around the location of the spaceship and found some carvings, writings, and some artifacts left behind by the Noahs.
The archaeological team even had some doubts that the Imperial Kingdom of Dion had not carried out a series of carpet searches at all, otherwise why would there be these artifacts carved in the entire surrounding area.
Some of the artifacts are still technological products, which have been confirmed by archaeological teams to be in place for more than 500 years.
It's just that after a long period of exploration, the archaeological team found some things, which only recorded some living customs of the Noah people and some historical records, and most of the scientific and technological products were machines for daily use.
Just when the archaeological team thought they could only make such progress, one of the team members accidentally touched the mechanism.
Suddenly, the basement further down opens up, and the basement allows the archaeological team to make a major discovery.
