Chapter 62: Annoyance

Back in the hall, Xu Liang hurriedly came in and stepped forward to report.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something important to do!"

Zhao Hong's heart sank, and he took over the fold.

Xu Liang is the head of the anti-corruption department of Liangzhejiang Road, and the official he reported is definitely not trivial.

"This Hu Yu, knowingly, is really bold!"

After Zhao Hong finished reading the recital, his face turned pale, and he slapped it on the table.

His Minister of Political Affairs actually knew the law and broke the law, and he was so greedy that he was shocked.

"Your Majesty, Hu Yu is a member of the Governor's Political Affairs Department, and the Ministry of Industry is still a scholar, and the matter is very high, Your Majesty may have to consider it in detail."

Xu Liang saw that Zhao Hong's face was ugly, and he cautiously persuaded softly.

The Great Song Dynasty has not been executed for corruption. Not to mention the court officials who participate in the governor's affairs, even the officials above the county level are not there.

The emperor first killed a general sentence, and then pacified the envoy and the transfer envoy all the way, and now even the ruling minister does not forgive, I am afraid that people will really panic.

"Weigh it out? What can be considered? ”

Zhao Hong glanced at Xu Liang, pointed at the fold, shook his head and sneered.

"Enriching one's own pockets, committing murder, and killing innocent people is a heinous crime. How to think about it, do you want to open the net and let the officials defend each other, and everyone will be happy? ”

Hu Yu, as a counselor of the political affairs department and a secretary of the Ministry of Industry, repaired the ordnance institute and purchased iron and wood, and even embezzled more than 400,000 yuan of ink at one time.

Since the promulgation of the "Anti-Corruption Law" in the first year of Xingqing, a year and a half of hard work, Hu Yu's number of greedy ink has reached 600,000!

Hu Yu served as the governor of the government and the secretary of the Ministry of Industry for several years, and if it is thoroughly investigated, the number of this gentleman's greed for ink must be an astronomical amount.

As for Hu Yu's son, he is even more heinous. Hu Yanei fell in love with a young woman with outstanding appearance in Jiangxi, and with the intention of getting involved, he actually killed the young woman's husband and abducted the young woman.

The most terrifying thing is that Hu Yu's son opened up the joints, and the local yamen covered up and down, and a shocking murder case was hastily concluded.

Compared with Lin'an Mansion, Jiangnan East Road, and even Sichuan Road, Jiangnan West Road is much poorer, and corrupt officials are much more domineering. If it weren't for Hu Mengyu's management of Jiangnan West Road, I am afraid that such a big case would never see the light of day.

"Your Majesty, think twice about this case. Hu Yu's father and son committed the crime, and the central and local officials involved in the crime reached 29 large and small officials, and 40 or 50 officials. If it is thoroughly investigated, it will be the same as the cases of Sichuan Puhong and An Gongxing, which will shock the world. ”

The case of Pu Hong, the pacification envoy of Kuizhou Road, uncovered by the Sichuan Anti-Corruption Division, involved six members of Pu Hong's family, more than 20 officials of Kuizhou Road, and nearly 100 officials; In the case of An Gongxing, the transfer envoy of Tongchuan Fu Road, there were more than 60 officials.

As a result of the verdict, Pu Hong and An Gongxing, as well as more than a dozen of their close relatives and confidants, were subjected to polarity, and the rest were imprisoned or exiled to hundreds of people.

If Hu Yu's case is really to be judged according to the law, I am afraid that it will shock the government and the public, and the heads will be rolling.

"Xu Liang, do you know how people in the world view this case?"

Zhao Hong's face was gloomy, and his tone was soft, but it was a biting cold.

"I am asking about the people of the world, not about those incorruptible and shameless officials."

Corruption could not be eradicated, but he did not expect that the imperial court clearly stipulated that the newspapers had repeatedly stated that the greedy inkmen were still the successors of the previous servants, and there were local general judgments, transfer envoys, and pacification envoys in the past, and this time it was the governor of the Great Song Dynasty court.

"Your Majesty, the people of the world have been greedy for a long time. The people are eager to eat the flesh and blood of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and they wish that the court would severely punish Hu Yu and others! Hu Mengyu also wrote to the imperial court to severely punish him, otherwise the implementation of the new policy on Jiangnan West Road may not be over. ”

Xu Liangxin was shocked and played according to the facts.

Since the advent of newspapers, all kinds of corrupt and lawless things quickly spread throughout the Great Song Dynasty, and the people were eagerly waiting, and the pressure on the court officials also increased sharply.

"The harm of corruption can kill the world of the Great Song Dynasty, and it must be severely punished to comfort the people of the world. Many people are waiting to see the jokes of the court, to see the jokes of me. This case must be severely punished, deterring the corrupt officials in the world, letting them know that the law is ruthless, and let them know who is watching whose jokes! ”

Zhao Hong's face was pale, as if he was about to ooze water.

Jurisprudence is nothing more than human affection. But don't forget, if the country can't be controlled, everyone is reckless and fearless, how can the country be safe and secure.

Long-term governance can lead to long-term stability, and to govern the country, can it only be constrained by morality? Only by governing the country according to law can the world be greatly governed.

"Is this case clear? No innocent people are involved, are they? ”

Zhao Hong quickly calmed down and asked, pointing at the song.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's completely correct. Jiangxi's An's Pacification Division asked Song Ci and Song to investigate the case in the past, and the Jiangxi Tidian Criminal Prison Division intervened throughout the process. ”

Xu Liang observed his words and looked at his face, and was cautious.

"Your Majesty, Hu Yu is the ruling minister, and his case is being watched by both the government and the opposition. Your Majesty should be cautious and not act hastily. ”

Hu Yu's case is too sensitive, he is not afraid of anything, just for the sake of Zhao Hong, and he doesn't want the emperor to be difficult.

"What Hu Yu committed and his son's case, is the evidence conclusive?"

Zhao Hong looked at Xu Liang and had something to say.

Hu Yu is Hu Yu, and Hu Yu's son is a son, and it cannot be mixed up.

"Back to Your Majesty, Hu Yu's case was personally investigated by Xu Xuan, the secretary of Dali Temple, and the wood alone was more than double the market price, with a price difference of more than 30 tens of thousands, and Hu Yu took 200,000 yuan. Since the first year of Xingqing, Hu Yu has been greedy for more than 60 million yuan, the accounts are clear, and all the relevant people have confessed, and there will be no mistakes. ”

Xu Liangzai is careful and strict.

"As for his son, the evidence is conclusive, and it is investigated by Song Ci and Song and Jiangxi Criminal Division, and the two handle the case independently and have nothing to do with each other."

Zhao Hong nodded, and slammed the fold on the table in annoyance.

Participating in political affairs, there are more than thousands of dollars, a large and small brocade clothes and jade food, as if he is so corrupt and crazy.

The appearance of eating is too ugly, no wonder those people who work hard all year round and are still struggling on the food and clothing line hate corrupt officials so much.

This food appearance is too ugly!

"The imperial court has repeatedly issued orders, and the newspapers have been overwhelming, and I have repeatedly warned officials not to be greedy for ink, and violators will be severely punished. Hu Yu's move was a crime against the wind, and the number is so huge, he really doesn't know whether he lives or dies, and the national law is intolerable! ”

Zhao Hong thought for a moment, and suddenly raised his head.

"Hu Yu's matter is so big, why are those officials in the Yushitai quiet?"

Rumors, how could the dawn here be quiet and silent?

"Your Majesty has just returned, and some of the imperial historians have played the impeachment of Hu Yu, but they have all been suppressed by the governors. Xue Xiang thought that the matter was big, and he was afraid of causing a commotion, so he waited for His Majesty to come back. Hu Yu's father and son have been imprisoned, and Dali Temple said that Hu Yu asked to see His Majesty. ”

Xu Liang looked at Zhao Hong, for fear that Zhao Hong would be soft-hearted, so he let Hu Yu and his son go.

If this is the case, his anti-corruption will exist in name only.

"Nope! What do you see, see him crying bitterly, I can't bear it in my heart, let him be safe and sound? ”

Zhao Hong snorted coldly and said categorically.

All corrupt officials are the same, there is always a fluke mentality, thinking that they can get away with it. After the incident at the east window, they cried bitterly one by one, full of ugliness, and also hoped that they would be safe and sound.

It's a pity that the organs have exhausted, but they have miscalculated the current situation.

"Xu Liang, do you want me to open up and have fun? Or do you have other concerns? ”

Zhao Hong's words made Xu Liangxin tremble, and he unconsciously gave up his hand.

"Your Majesty, the minister is for Your Majesty's sake. His Majesty's execution of corrupt officials and corrupt officials was praised by the people of the world, but the sergeants and doctors were also uneasy. The minister is afraid that the government will be disordered, which will be detrimental to His Majesty. ”

Xu Liang said slowly, and Zhao Hong's heart sank slightly.

It seems that the implementation of the new policy and the anti-corruption campaign of the imperial court have touched the interests and nerves of scholars and officials.

This also shows that since the implementation of the new policy on Liangzhejiang Road, it has gradually achieved results.

was able to implement the new policy in an orderly manner in Zhejiang at the feet of the Son of Heaven, Gao Dingzi was worthy of being a cadre and did not disappoint him.
