Chapter 61: The Yamen Fire Case (1)

Political envoys, governors, and subordinate officials, in charge of the financial and personnel of a province, and the judicial department who specializes in criminal names are called two divisions, from the second rank of official, also known as "feudal platform", "feudal division", second only to the governor among provincial officials, and also belongs to the feudal officials. Huang Tingyi is the political envoy and is responsible for financial matters, in other words, this petty official is an accountant and is in charge of financial matters. The pamphlet he presented to Yinzuo was very thin, only four or five pages, but the content in it made Yinzuo break out in a cold sweat:

The entire Zhili Provincial Treasury has actually lost more than one million taels of silver, and this is only the deficit of the provincial-level institutions, and the following states and counties do not know how many deficits can occur. The booklet records the amount of treasury silver embezzled by dozens of officials, the first of which was Wu He, the governor of Zhili, who alone took nearly 400,000 taels from the treasury silver, and the daimyo of the feudal platform and the Zhentai were also among them. Not only that, but this booklet also records several unjust cases, the most detailed of which is a case of snatching a wife and injuring someone to death, the case is not complicated, but there are many people involved, but the high official position surprised Yinzuo.

The case is very old-fashioned: Xiucai Zhou Baozhong, Nanpi County, Cangzhou Prefecture, has a wife Liu, beautiful as a flower, and was met by the local wealthy He Kun when sweeping the tomb during the Qingming Festival in the 33rd year of Kangxi, He Kun sent a servant to injure Zhou Baozhong and snatched Liu, Zhou Baozhong died of his injuries after returning home, and his widowed mother Zhou Huang handed the pleadings to the county government with the help of neighbors, but was sent out by the county order on the grounds that there was no certificate, Zhou Huang was not satisfied, and sued all the way, from the state to the Yamen, and finally blocked the street to complain, and handed the pleadings to Wu He's hands, But the end result is still not a problem.

Yinzuo paced back and forth in the room, carefully thinking about various possibilities, for Zhili Province, Yinzuo is bound to win - according to the plan, the end point of the future shipping grain is located in Tianjin Wei, no matter what, Yinzuo has to hold the Zhili Province in his hands, at least it must be controlled by a clean and self-disciplined official, otherwise it will inevitably affect the success or failure of shipping. Like Wu He's old goods, Yinzuo can't command at all, plus this goods are greedy, the matter of shipping falls into the hands of Wu He, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious, once things are not harmonious, but the unlucky one is Yinzuo himself, the old man Kangxi's board is not so easy to suffer, it is a matter of human life.

Hey, such a simple case has been tried for so long without a result, could it be that the officials are all idiots? Bu Xiao said, the greasy thing here is definitely the silver of the He family. Zhou Huang, Huang Tingyi? Well, this week, the Huang family wants to have something to do with Huang Tingyi, otherwise how could Huang Tingyi take such a big risk to tell himself about the case, those deficits are supposed to be revealed by Huang Tingyi for fear that he will not take over the case.

Silver is a good thing, and we like it too, but it's disgusting to use human homicides to make black-hearted silver, which is a matter of having a son without an asshole. Wu He, the old man, is the old man's favorite general, he has been with the old man for decades, and the saint is very strong, it is really not a simple matter to bring him down, and it is not enough to rely on the case of snatching his wife and hurting people to death. The deficit of the treasury has to be investigated, but in the previous life, there were many people who played fake accounts, and only a few were found, and it was still a relatively sound era of the financial system. Well, you have to send someone to protect Huang Tingyi first, otherwise if the news leaks out, I am afraid that Wu Lao will have a black hand, and everything will be in vain.

At this moment, the sky was already bright, Yinzuo was sure to think about it, strode out of the door, and said loudly: "Little demon, get out of here!" ”

"Here, sir, you have something to command." Liu Yao was neatly dressed and ran in from outside the courtyard gate with a smile on his eyebrows.

"Little demon, take some brothers to the political envoy's yamen, and invite a man named Huang Tingyi to the master, if anyone stops him, kill him, go!"

"Wow!" Seeing Yinzuo's serious face, Liu Yao didn't dare to smile anymore, made a promise, and quickly rushed out of the courtyard gate, led more than a dozen soldiers from the camp to take out the horses from the post station, rode up, and rushed towards the yamen of the political envoy.

Liu Yao and the others went fast and came back faster, Yinzuo had just finished freshening up, and before he had time to have breakfast, He Tie led a sergeant of the Shanpu Battalion into the courtyard gate in a hurry, and said: "Lord Wang, things are not good, last night the political envoy made the Yamen on fire, at this moment, the people of the Yamen of the Zhensi and the Tianjin Garrison Camp have blocked the entire Yamen, and our people can't get in, and there is a commotion at this time." ”

Damn, I'm really afraid of anything. Yinzuo's heart thumped, and he said angrily: "He Tie, gather all the soldiers and go with this king to see what is going on." ”

Liu Yao led more than a dozen soldiers of the good battalion to confront more than 100 men and horses led by a general dressed as a general, and the two sides were tense, but neither side dared to make the first move, but their mouths were not idle, and the scolding sounded.

When Yinzuo arrived with a large group of people, seeing that the two sides were noisy and unified, his heart was on fire, and he shouted: "Presumptuous!" Zong Ma came to the front and looked at the general coldly, and the murderous aura on his face flashed.

Yinzuo himself is a master, and he is also a soldier who has fought and killed people, plus he is the identity of the prince of Qincha, and the killing machine is together, the general immediately couldn't bear it, fell to his knees, trembled and said: "The king, the prince is angry, and the small, the small is also acting on orders." ”

"Hmph." Yin Zuo snorted coldly and said: "Evacuate all the people to this king, otherwise there will be no forgiveness!" ”

The general didn't dare to slack off, promised loudly, kowtowed, turned around and ordered his sergeants to disperse, and then said to Yinzuo with a smiling face: "Lord Wang, please!" ”

Yinzuo was too lazy to entangle with a small general, got off the horse, and led his soldiers of the Shanpu Battalion to walk quickly into the yamen of the political envoy. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Zhang Yukuan and Yang Lin of the domain to greet them, but I didn't see Wu He, the governor of Zhili, and I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart: The political envoy made the yamen on fire, this matter is not small, how can the old Wu goods disappear, it is really a bit evil.

As soon as Zhang and Yang saw Yinzuo, they immediately stepped forward to salute, Yinzuo = smiled back, and then asked: "Zhang Fantai, what's going on today?" Let's talk to the king. ”

Zhang Yukuan arched his hand and said: "Lord Wang, yesterday a contemptible priest ran out of water, burned a few rooms, and killed an official. ”

Dead individual? Yinzuo suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart......
