Chapter 619: The People: We Were Lied?

Many people realized that they had been deceived, and their hearts were still sad and indignant, and at the same time, they were concerned about their new seeds, and the silver taels they bought.

There is basically no way to say it, although a deal has been done, but it turns out that a booklet they registered has disappeared early.

And these businessmen also took all the money, and as for the officials, they were only a small head, because they knew that if they took too much, they would arouse the suspicion of others.

Eventually, their heads were cut off, right at the entrance of the market.

And the people, you have spread the word about this, and you are very bitter about what they have done, and at the same time the people have demanded that the criminals must be punished severely.

This matter spread to Shili and Eight Townships, and many people were also upset about it, even some county officials, or people from all over the south of the Yangtze River also received the news.

Of course, this takes time, and it can't be so fast.

With the help of Jinyiwei and the governors and ministers of various places, this matter can be considered resolved.

The new seeds of the imperial court were finally distributed truthfully, although there were a little accidents from the sowers in the process, but it did not affect the overall situation.

As long as they can plant new seeds before spring planting, and they can cultivate new seedlings, they will not do it in vain.

The imperial court did not contribute in vain.

Time passed in a hurry, and finally came to Yangzhou in March.

The triennial Enke exam is finally coming, and in this year, many students have come to the capital with excitement.

They all want to gain fame, they all want to contribute to the imperial court, and the most important thing is that they know that this year's imperial examination is completely different from that of previous years.

This year's emperor attaches great importance to these talents, and at the same time, the imperial court is also very short of people, so most of them can be admitted in this case.

For previous years, it may be average, and those who did not get into the Jinshi may be an opportunity this year.

And the imperial court is naturally aware of such a situation, so it also makes the examiner slightly more difficult to make this exam question a little more difficult, and selects better Jinshi through these.

In previous years, before the start of the imperial examination in Yangzhou in March, the fireworks in the capital were all there, and it was very lively.

This year is the same, many students, after coming to the capital, are impressed by the good style of the capital, and decide that they must stay in the capital.

And after seeing a scene in the capital, the students will also have a different feeling in their hearts.

This, of course, is that there is a big difference.

Zhao Hengyi has been very busy recently, because he has to deal with a lot of things, as well as officials from various ministries of the imperial court, local officials, and those things that have not been put in place by new seeds.

The imperial examination is about to start, so the time can also keep up.

As long as the people in Jiangnan can get new seeds, he will be at ease, and he will wait until the second half of the year to get new seeds for the people in other places.

If you don't get it now, the time has passed, so you can only wait until the next time.

It doesn't matter, Zhao Hengyi knows that the next time a new seed comes out, it will definitely be appreciated by everyone.

As for wheat in the north, as well as Liaoyang and other places, it will take a little time.

Zhao Hengyi also asked the people in the household department to hurry up and deal with this matter, thinking that they should quickly promote watermelons or corn, which is okay.

On this day, he deliberately changed his clothes, took Hua Die'er, and the two of them walked out of the palace in a grand manner.

As for the other ministers, or these old eunuchs in the palace, they didn't dare to stop them at all, they could only watch from afar, and they were quite scared in their hearts.

Although I don't know what the emperor is going to do when he leaves the palace this time, he doesn't dare to ask more, and the other is that what the emperor does is his freedom, and these old eunuchs and their officials have no right to speak.

Since the last incident, the officials did not dare to say some bad things to the emperor.

They only dare to whisper it in private.

Of course, when Zhao Hengyi went out, there must have been a lot of guards around him, and a lot of people were protecting him.

"Recently, the local officials have almost cleaned up."

"Before, we just shook the officials in the court, but we didn't expect the local officials to be so terrible!"

"Even the officials of the imperial court still know that they are a little restrained, after all, they are at the feet of the Son of Heaven."

"But the local officials are different, most of them are greedy and incompetent!"

"After we Jinyiwei found out about these news, we also felt very shocked, it was too unexpected, this was really unexpected."

Hua Die'er walked on the road with him and didn't forget to report this matter, after all, it was the commander of the Jinyi Guard who had a lot of information.

When the two of them are free, they go to talk about this matter, anyway, it doesn't hurt, although it is not a discussion in the court, but it can be regarded as having some effect.

Zhao Hengyi didn't refute anything, but felt that in such an atmosphere, it felt very comfortable to talk about the major affairs of the imperial court, as if the people in the market were discussing it here.

"This has been so normal since ancient times, local officials can be a soil emperor because the sky is high and the emperor is far away, that is no problem at all."

"But what I didn't expect was that the local officials, after all the money they had embezzled over the years was paid into the state treasury, it was very much."

"In addition, even some merchants in various places are also tied up with officials, so the money of these merchants has also been mixed up by our Jinyi Guard, so in such a situation, the status of merchants will be lower and lower."

Zhao Hengyi nodded, the officials put the money of these businessmen together, so that the treasury is really sufficient now, his imperial brother, why didn't he know to punish the officials in these places before?

But come to think of it, it must be because there are certain people in the court who are the objects of their protection.

Once the people in the court are dismounted, the deeds of these officials will also be exposed, and in the end, they will end up with a person who is empty.

"Yes, the status of businessmen is not particularly high, but now after such a deal, businessmen will be looked down upon by more and more people, but this is what they deserve, and we can't help it!"

Zhao Hengyi knew very well that after the status of merchants was improved, it would naturally be beneficial, and trade would become more developed and free.
