Chapter 162: The Great Song Dynasty is immortal
Punish him Shen Zhaoqing's full door, which already gives him a lot of face.
After all, it's not the Zhujiu clan.
After all, it is the family member of Shen Zhaoqing's current lineage.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty spares your life! Your Majesty......"
Shen Zhaoqing was dragged out of the hall by Wu Desi's martial arts.
Zhao Shuo has already left, and he is still desperately begging for mercy.
Liu Ji, Ma Huaibang and others were directly taken back to prison by Gao Yu.
Their fate was lucky.
Because Zhao Shuo now very much advocates the policy of reporting meritorious service.
In other words, as long as someone like Liu Ji is like him, he takes the initiative to provide the culprit and strive for confession.
That would allow for a relatively lenient treatment.
Even if you don't play well, it won't harm the lives of the nine clans.
This is not Zhao Shuo's laxity, but there is no way to do it.
After all, the Great Song Dynasty, especially at this stage, those officials who were rampant and tyrannical were caught in a basket.
If you don't rebel against some people who want to make meritorious contributions, when will it be a good time to catch corrupt officials?
Like Liu Ji, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes are difficult to forgive.
Then Wu Desi would send him to the frontier.
This was already considered lucky for him.
Like Liu Ji, Zhao Lindong did not involve the clansmen.
There are also Wang Chuanqing and Xue Jiande who confessed last time.
It was also treated leniently.
Only Shen Zhaoqing is the culprit, and Zhao Shuo can no longer tolerate him living in the world for even a minute.
So less than half an hour after retreating, Shen Zhaoqing was directly sent outside the noon gate by Gao Yu.
With a click, the head of the third-grade officer fell to the ground.
Subsequently, Shen Zhaoqing's mansion ushered in a wave of baptism from Wu Desi.
Raid the house!
Naturally, it is Zhao Shuo's favorite relief.
At the same time, it is also necessary to arrest Shen Zhaoqing's family members.
Subsequently, Ma Huaibang's mansion in Bianliang City was also included in the key raid targets by Gao Yu.
Then, the private giants who provided convenience for many officials confessed by Liu Ji and Ma Huaibang also had to be baptized by the imperial court.
So much so that for a whole night, Gao Yu seemed to have turned into a legal coffee.
kept taking the lead in kicking open the door, and constantly popularizing the law and explaining the law to those frightened criminals.
Finally, let them try the law!
The day Zhao Shuo returned to the palace!
The military, civilians and officials of the entire Bianliang City stayed awake all night.
Kill!
Zhao Shuo's methods are naturally simple and rude.
Why?
Because the gang of people that Shen Zhaoqing colluded with were completely aware of the law and broke the law.
After all, Chu Nangong's case had been less than ten days in the past.
It was only ten days before the eighty-one officials were beheaded outside the noon gate.
Even the grandsons of Emperor Taizong of the Great Song Dynasty were given to death by the emperor.
And those famous merchants around Bianliang City were killed by one hundred and seventy.
Such a bloody and ruthless means of blowing.
But there are still people who fight for the tiger under high pressure.
Those businessmen who were chasing profits turned their heads and colluded with Shen Zhaoqing again.
If it's true, it should be killed!
Zhao Shuo returned to the Wende Palace, and before he knew it, it was noon.
Zhao Shuo was not in the mood to eat today.
He was really angry with the demons and monsters hidden in the court.
But what worries Zhao Shuo the most now is other places.
After all, the place where he inspected was less than a hundred miles away from Bianliang City.
It's so close to Beijing, and people will encounter that kind of thing.
And what about the south farther away from Bianliang City?
Wouldn't the situation be even worse?
After all, Zhao Shuo had dealt with Chu Nangong in his hands.
That guy from Chu Nangong just stocked up grain in Cheng'an County, Hebei, which turned the entire Hebei business model upside down.
Even generals with troops could not afford to buy food.
How corrupt should the huge south be at this time?
Great Song!
Oh my great song!
Zhao Shuo was at a loss at this time.
He wanted to revive the northern military towns of the Great Song Dynasty, and he wanted to stop the Jin.
First of all, it is necessary to recapture the three major military towns in the north occupied by the Jin army.
The next step is to take back the sixteen states of Youyun that the Great Song Dynasty lost for hundreds of years.
Only with the sixteen states of Youyun in their hands, the Great Song Dynasty can be revived.
For these reasons, Zhao Shuo had to collect taxes in the south.
Otherwise there is no money in the treasury.
However, the need to collect taxes has caused so many officials in the middle to intervene.
Originally, one place could pay one million taels to the imperial court.
However, after the officials exploited it layer by layer, there were only a hundred thousand taels left in the treasury.
It is estimated that it is a good situation to have so many left.
During the reign of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, Hua Shigang collected as much as 780,000 taels of tax silver.
But when it came to the imperial court, it was actually a deficit.
What do you mean?
It is the imperial court that collects taxes, and in the end, the imperial court has to pay for it!
Because many officials spent a lot of money in the process of collecting taxes.
So, how do you get this done?
Zhao Shuo knew very well that in order to govern a Great Song Dynasty, it would not work to simply kill all the corrupt officials.
He understands the truth that when the water is clear, there are no fish.
What's more, it is still a critical moment when it is necessary to spend a lot of money on infrastructure.
If the construction of the North collapses in half a year.
Then Da Song will be completely finished!
I don't know how long it took, Li Huai walked in.
He said with a sad face: "Your Majesty." ”
"What?"
Li Huai said again: "Your Majesty, the generals of the northern military town are waiting outside the palace, and they want to meet them." ”
"But the servant felt that His Majesty had not eaten yet, so he delayed for a while." "Go and call me."
Zhao Shuo looked at the cold rice on the table and said, "Serve it, I don't want to eat it." ”
"Your Majesty is in charge of state affairs, and you should pay more attention to the dragon body."
"Ugh." Zhao Shuo sighed in a complicated manner: "Give me a message to meet them." ”
"Yes." Li Huai retreated quietly.
Soon, Li Yanhui, the cabinet assistant, walked in with Zhang Shuye, Li Gang and Hebei Commander Zong Ze.
Except for Li Yanhui, the other three were all wearing heavy armor.
Obviously, after meeting the emperor, they were going to return to their respective stations as soon as possible.
"Your Majesty."
"The princes have worked hard, Li Huai, give the princes a seat."
Moments later, the four of them took their seats.
Zong Ze saw that His Majesty Zhao looked haggard, and there were still a few red bloodshots in his eyes.
He was full of concern and said, "Your Majesty is in charge of state affairs, so you should take care of your dragon's body." ”
Zhao Shuo said with a smile: "General Zong, it is you who should take care, you are old, and now you are burdened with the heavy task of revitalizing Hebei, I can't bear it, yesterday I gave an order to the Tai Hospital, to match you with a Tai doctor." ”
"This time, you happened to be back, so I went back with the imperial doctor."
"Your Majesty is loved, and the old minister is afraid."
Looking at Zong Ze's dedication and demeanor, Zhao Shuo also beat a drum in his heart.
Historically, Zong Ze had died of exhaustion at this time.
That's right, he was exhausted and collapsed, and he died.
Zong Ze can live until now because Zhao Shuo has changed the trajectory of history.
If it is now Song Qinzong Zhao Huan as emperor.
Zong Ze will still be angry to death.
