Chapter 406: Greedy for Ink
Over the years, the filial piety of the New Year's festival has been able to be sent directly to Chengengong.
For this, he was secretly proud.
Don't underestimate this little advantage, there are so many officials in Beijing and expatriates in the world, how many can't send them if they want to, and how many can't be sent to the main lord even if they are sent in?
However, this magistrate can.
In the past ten years, You Da, a cheap brother-in-law, has often traveled back and forth between the capital and Handan, but he has only come four times to flatter the orders of Engong.
The first two times were to ask for money, one was to repair the river channel of the Fu River and the dredging of the Niushou River, the Ministry of Industry allocated silver, the project was not big, the silver was more than enough, the county made up a whole number, converted it into gold, packed it in a sand and gravel basket, and sent it to a remote small village designated by Cheng'en Gong.
One is a drought, the rain has not fallen, the household department allocated silver, but the silver has just arrived, the sky is beautiful, the rain is pouring, the county secretly called two businessmen to produce rice, in the name of the yamen to open a porridge shed, the name of the disaster relief.
The people who had been in drought and rain for a long time were immersed in the excitement of great joy and sorrow, and no one cared that the only thing that was distributed to them was a bowl of gruel that could illuminate the human figure.
】
Of course, the silver saved, the magistrate put together a whole number, converted it into gold, and together with a batch of seedlings, it was still transported to the remote small village designated by Cheng'en Gong.
There is a small episode in this, the county magistrate misjudged a piece of eucalyptus, and the bitter master's family of five committed suicide by taking poison in front of the county yamen!
This eucalyptus has also become a major stain on the governor's tenure.
Then, at the end of that term, the evaluation of the county was good, without merit, and the tragedy was magically erased, and the county was re-elected in the rich Handan County.
Although it is not as rich as the rich Jiangnan, it is the north of the country, belonging to the capital, as long as it is mixed again, even if there is no political performance, as long as there is no mistake, the next one will either be Baoding, or really determined, or, also fall to Tongzhou, Changping these places, and then after that, of course, it is into Beijing!
The magistrate knew that this was Cheng Engong sheltering himself from the wind and rain, and he was grateful, and from then on he regarded Cheng Engong as a reborn parent.
And the third time was the one when You Wu followed Daoist Liang and Zhang Dongjia to Yanjin.
You Wu said that he wanted to do some business over there, and asked him to open a few papers.
Yanjin belongs to Weihui Mansion and has no relationship with Guangping Mansion on the surface, but the documents issued by the magistrate are also useful along the way.
After this incident, You Wu never appeared again, and a few months later, the Sun family had an accident, and the magistrate was restless.
It was at this time that Deng Dalang, the master of money and grain, told the magistrate that he had left all the evidence for the first two embezzlements of silver, and hoped that the magistrate would not think that the Sun family had fallen temporarily, so he didn't know how thick the sky was.
What else can the county do, Deng Dalang is his master of money and grain, and he is the person given to him by Cheng'en Gong, the first two times, Deng Dalang, who is the master of money and grain, is the executor, if he wants to leave evidence, it is easy.
After that, the magistrate could only obey Deng Dalang's words, and recently another sum of silver was transferred, all of which was converted into gold by Deng Dalang and transported away.
And this time, the magistrate didn't even know where the gold had gone.
These were all the testimonies of the magistrate, and there was only so much he knew.
In the past few days, Flying Fish Guard has verified them one by one, and all of them are true.
Peanut was stunned and directly took away all the disaster relief money, how bold is this?
"How will it be judged from above?" If the sentence is light, Peanut will be angry.
Huo Yu said with a smile: "The family property is confiscated, the man is exiled, the woman is a slave, and his death penalty is inevitable, as for whether it is Ling Chi or beheaded, it depends on the meaning of the above, but it will definitely be difficult to escape death." ”
Peanut breathed a sigh of relief, the punishment of corrupt officials in the Great Jin Dynasty is still very strict, but if they are convicted, in the Great Jin Dynasty, their descendants will not be allowed to take the imperial examination, and they will not be allowed to marry their descendants.
Even so, the matter has never been interrupted, or for power, or for money, or for sex, one after another, and moths to the fire.
"What about Deng Dalang? The Sun family is in prison, who is he fighting for now? ”
"Sun Mingzhe."
"Who?" It was the first time Peanut had heard the name, and he couldn't help but raise his voice.
"Sun Mingzhe is the younger brother of the Empress Dowager and Cheng Engong, he is only two years younger than the Empress Dowager, and the reason why Sun Mingzhe was not implicated before this is because he passed to a childless widow in the Sun clan at the age of five to inherit the incense of that house. The queen mother's family is a side branch of the Sun family, which was only a businessman in the past, and an official who donated money after having money, and later sent her daughter to the palace, and it took more than ten years to make a fortune. And Sun Mingzhe inherited the incense of the room, but it is the Sun family's grandson, scholarly family, Sun Mingzhe fifteen-year-old Xiucai, three or nine years old to be admitted to the people, the following year to Jinshi into the office, five years later, twenty-five-year-old Sun Mingzhe in Qiufengguan monks, after disappearing for twenty years.
When Sun Mingzhe entered the office, the Queen Mother was still an unknown low-level beauty in the palace, when Sun Mingzhe became a monk, the Queen Mother was still unknown, therefore, at that time, no one knew the relationship between Sun Mingzhe and Sun Meiren, and later Sun Meiren became the Queen Mother, and the Sun family made a career, and at that time Sun Mingzhe had already disappeared for many years, and this matter was even less known. ”
Peanut stunned, Taoist? Sun Mingzhe later became a Taoist priest?
Could it be that she really has a relationship with Taoism, over the years, what she has heard, seen, and the people around her, not the people around her, there are already I don't know how many Taoist priests.
Now Huo Yu has checked and found another Taoist priest.
"Where is Sun Mingzhe now? Ah, the little Zhuangzi who sent the gold to the county back then, where has he always lived? ”
Huo Yu is a little proud, my daughter-in-law is smart.
"Indeed, Sun Mingzhe lived in a very secret small village, but not always lived there, according to Deng Dalang's confession, he also only met Sun Mingzhe once, Sun Mingzhe is a Taoist priest, often travels around, but every year he will go to live in that village for a while, only the county magistrate, has transported silver there twice in the past ten years, and whether anyone else has transported silver there, he does not know. But according to the information we have so far, even if there are still people, there are not many people who want to come, because most of the people related to the Sun family are either imprisoned or suspended for review, if gold and silver have been transported there, no one should mention it, besides, the reason why this magistrate has not been found before is because he is involved with the Sun family, he is a maid who has been out of the house for many years, not a female scroll who is related to the Sun family, which has allowed him to stay until today. ”
"Where is Zhuangzi, have you checked it?"
