Chapter 415: Iron-Faced Judge! (Ask for subscription)
Ten days later.
During this period of time in Shan Father County, the market mouth has not stopped.
Every day, officials are killed, and every day there are powerful and squires who are raided, and the money and food looted from these people's homes are only announced in an approximate amount, which is also shocking.
The grain confiscated by the Wuma clan alone is as high as more than 1,000 stones, which is almost the 'tax field' of more than 200 households in Shanfu County.
Be clear.
Under Qin's law, the average amount of grain paid by each household was only four stones, four buckets and five liters, and this was only the grain that was not copied, as for other money, cloth, farmland, etc., there were even more seven or eight carriages that could not be loaded.
And that's just one.
A big family like the Wuma clan and a big man are at least a dozen in the entire single father county.
There are still many squires in the townships, who are also wealthy and have a solid family.
This time it was not copied, and the grain collected by Qin Ting from Shanfu County was as high as 10,000 stones, and the total field of Shanfu County was only more than 40 hectares, one acre of one hundred acres, and one mu produced grain and one stone and five stones.
When these confiscations were announced, the audience was in an uproar.
The scolding of Wu Mashu, Li Lin and other officials has not stopped from the beginning, even if these people have long since died and the clan has been wiped out, there are still many people who run outside their old mansions to spit and throw stones, as if they don't do this, it is difficult to dispel the hatred in their hearts.
He also strongly supported the purge of the Qin court.
Now the money and grain have been loaded into horse-drawn carts and ox-carts, and are being transported to Aocang.
There is little peace in the city.
And Peng Yue also announced for the government three days ago that it had nothing to do with the theft of the ship by Julu, and he took the initiative to surrender, which could reduce the punishment, and in the past it was oppressed by local officials, so he only punished Peng Yue for half a year, and after the end of his service, he could resume his free life.
Meanwhile.
The popularization of the law in the city has not been broken.
Every day, there are judges, on the earthen platform in the city, preaching the Qin law and popularizing the law for the people of Shanfu County.
With Wu Mashu and others in front of the law, the effect of this popularization of the law is also remarkable, changing the dissatisfaction of the people of Shanfu County with the Qin Court in the past, as well as the complaints against Qin Zheng, and even giving birth to a lot of good feelings, especially after Meng Yi arrived, it invisibly reduced a lot of local 'harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes', which attracted a burst of praise from the people of Shanfu County.
However, none of these things were done by Meng Yi himself.
He just commanded to go down.
After all the officials and soldiers requisitioned in the nearby counties arrived, Meng Yi resolutely carried out a large-scale clean-up of Dangjun, Dangxian 21 counties, nearly half of the government was investigated, thousands of officials were imprisoned, and the court confiscated the official houses, Haoqiang, as many as 1,000 households, and the confiscated fields accounted for nearly 60% of Dangjun, as for the money and grain, it was as high as hundreds of thousands of stones.
Time.
The officials of Dangjun are not happy, and the officials are all panicked.
I am afraid that the court will find out about me and put all my family in prison.
And this has naturally attracted applause from the public.
Applauded again and again.
Meng Yi also got the name of 'Iron Mask Judge'.
However, Meng Yi's order was indeed very neat, and it was also ruthless, and there was no room for any sand.
Violations of the law must be prosecuted, and law enforcement must be strict.
However, under Meng Yi's drastic rectification, a very thorny problem also appeared in Dangjun.
There is a shortage of officials.
Even though the imperial court had already drawn men from the surrounding counties.
But Meng Yi was too ruthless.
Dealing with too many officials at once, causing a power vacuum in Dangjun, many official positions are vacant, no one can take over, and no suitable candidates have been found.
After the high-intensity interrogation in the past, many officials have become dissatisfied and resistant.
Now.
Shan Father County County Ya.
Many officials gathered.
Wu Guang arched his hand and said: "Patrol, this Dangjun can no longer be so stubborn, now there are twenty-one counties in Dangjun, eleven of them have been strictly governed, and the remaining ten counties have also arrested a lot of officials, in my opinion, let's stop here." ”
"There is a shortage of magistrates right now."
"Although we have the heart, we are really powerless."
"In the past ten days, we have all held many hats, dealing with political affairs day and night, we are really tired enough, and now we are really a little unable to support it, please also ask the inspector to understand, and please ask the inspector to ask the court for life, let the court send some more people over, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to deal with so many political affairs by just relying on me."
Wu Guang looked tired.
It's long gone with the same spirit.
It's so tiring.
He's still young, so he can support it.
Like Liu Ji, who is old, during this time, he can't open his eyes when he is even more tired.
I didn't come to this meeting directly, just to refresh my spirits.
Meng Yi's eyes were still on Qin Lu.
It doesn't seem to care about Wu Guang and the others' requests at all.
Looked at.
Lu Ze was also a little anxious.
He said hurriedly: "Inspection, the subordinates know that the inspectors are dedicated to the law, and they also want to investigate the illegal people in Dangjun to the end, but only relying on the hundred or so people transferred from various counties and counties, it is really impossible to support it, such a huge political matter, the subordinates wear many positions, it is very reluctant, if you continue to clean up the remaining counties of Dangjun, I am afraid that the subordinates will not be able to hold it at all." ”
"Please think twice about patrolling."
"Please think twice about patrolling."
“.”
The officials in the hall shouted in unison.
They are really tired.
Even if it's a cow or a horse, you can't use it like that.
He never rested.
Meng Yi raised his head indifferently, calmly swept over the faces of everyone present, and indeed saw a deep tiredness and exhaustion, he said in a deep voice: "The matter of Dangjun will not stop, but I already know your needs, and I will report them to the imperial court." ”
"Meng Yi also knows the tiredness of you."
"However, the laws of Great Qin are strict and cannot be easily changed."
"So please work hard for a while."
"However, there are still ten counties in Dangjun, I will slow down as appropriate, and wait for the officials sent by the imperial court to arrive, and then conduct a strict investigation, as for the merits of you, I have ordered someone to register, and when the affairs of Dangjun subside in the future, I will report to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I will personally ask for credit for you."
Meng Yi's voice was cold.
But with a touch of unmistakable indifference.
Hear the words.
Lu Ze, Wu Guang and the others glanced at each other, and could only nod helplessly.
During this time, they have deeply realized Meng Yi's uprightness, everything is based on the law, and everything beyond the law, Meng Yi is not allowed, and he will never tolerate mercy, and the iron face is so selfless that it makes people feel a little frightened.
In particular, someone privately suggested that it would be possible to strictly enforce the 'no-su rule' in Dangjun.
turned out to be reprimanded by Meng Yi.
It also directly lists the content of the "Book of Shang Jun".
The king of the rulers of the sun; Those who rule by night are strong; Cut by the ruler.
If there is no rule, the evil officials will not be able to benefit the people for personal gain. And the feelings of the officials are not compatible.
It is precisely because Meng Yi is too ruthless and even a little inhumane that many officials in private complain.
Even so.
Meng Yi still goes his own way.
Unmoved.
It's just that Meng Yi's answer is too official.
When the imperial court sent people, I don't know when it will be, and I don't know how long it will be.
If they continue to deal with political affairs with such intensity, they dare not imagine how tired they will become.
Then.
Meng Yi continued: "Wu Guang, I will go to the market in the city and post a notice to tell the local people that the fields confiscated by the imperial court will not be distributed, but will be collected by the state, and in the future, they can obtain the right to cultivate the fields from the county government, and collect the land rent from the imperial court every year according to the law." ”
"The fields rented for the local people are no longer included in the 'public fields', and they no longer enjoy the special case of not paying rent."
"Everything is taxed according to the land of self-cultivation."
Hear the words.
Everyone's eyes moved slightly.
During this time, in fact, many people are asking how to dispose of these fields.
If all of them are harvested, they will be used as fields.
That is, Guantian.
Let the government directly operate, and the grain harvested in the autumn will be directly collected into the treasury, but I am afraid that many people in Shanfu County will not survive, after all, although there is no land in the past, at least there is a way to become a helper.
Now that Meng Yi spoke, he also gave an explanation.
It's just that the method given by Meng Yi seems to be contrary to the field decree promulgated before, and it also returns to the old field system of Daqin.
The land is owned by the state, and the people only have the right to cultivate, but not the right to belong.
But can you really do that?
They were skeptical.
This is a blatant violation of the Tian Order.
Wu Guang said tentatively: "Inspection, Daqin has an existing field order, it doesn't seem to be like this, the inspection is so announced, the court blames it, I'm afraid I can't afford it." ”
Meng Yi brushed his sleeves and said, "It's okay, I'll figure out the situation." ”
"And when I came to Dangjun, I had already asked His Majesty for my life, allowing me to act cheaply in Dangjun."
"Let it be promulgated."
"I'll take care of everything."
"No." Wu Guang and others hurriedly agreed.
They also understand now that Meng Yi may have come with a purpose when he came this time, and judging from the stolen money and goods collected by Shanfu County, it was indeed very inappropriate for Daqin to change the land order at that time, not only did it not alleviate the embarrassing situation of the people without land, but it aggravated the land annexation.
It's like you're messing around.
It's just that Kanto and Kanchu are different after all.
The private ownership of the fields here has been deep-rooted for hundreds of years, and it is not easy to shake the old land system. It is also easy to cause dissatisfaction and panic in other places, and if something happens at that time, I am afraid that Meng Yi will not be able to bear it.
However, since Meng Yi had spoken, they did not dare to refuse.
What's more, most of them were victims of the old land system in the past, and now that the imperial court has noticed, it is a good thing.
Subsequently, Meng Yi announced some more things.
let Wu Guang and the others retreat.
As the acting county commander, he deals with more political affairs every day, and he is also an inspector, and he has more matters to be responsible for all day, if he is really tired, he is actually the most tired, but Meng Yi does not dare to slack off in the slightest.
He knows it well.
The task on my shoulders is heavy.
There's a lot to deal with next.
Now that the January limit is approaching, the imperial court will begin to attack the entire Kanto, and the officials in charge of the 'economy' will be inventoried, and then he is afraid that the world will be more turbulent, although he does not understand why Fusu is so eager, and even a little impatient, but as a courtier, he can only act according to orders.
The only thing he is looking forward to now is that Fusu can handle the follow-up.
Otherwise, it will be the Tian Ling again, and it will be meddling in the economic power, but I am afraid that the Kanto region will really make trouble.
Or even mess up.
though he took with him four thousand soldiers.
But if it spreads to Kanto, it's nothing.
I can't suppress it at all.
A trace of sorrow appeared on Meng Yi's brows.
He shook his head.
He didn't think much about it, and now his top priority was to handle political affairs well.
He took a sip of strong tea, lifted his spirits, and once again devoted himself to daily political affairs.
Meng Yi's disposition of Dangjun, a single father county.
Soon spread to the world.
caused an uproar in the world.
The local people knew that they were applauding, and even many people hoped that Meng Yi would come to their county, and the local officials couldn't help but change their color when they heard it, and as for the local heroes and nobles, they couldn't help but gasp when they heard Meng Yi's ruthlessness and decisiveness.
It's too cold-blooded.
almost uprooted the entire Dangjun government.
Tens of thousands of people were imprisoned, nearly 1,000 were killed, and an unknown amount of land, money and grain were confiscated.
Everyone was afraid of Meng Yi.
The Iron Mask Judge lives up to his name.
Koto.
Zhang Liang sat on a small boat, down the river, he held a letter in his hand, and after reading the content on it, he couldn't help sighing: "Iron-faced judge? This Meng Yi is really a good chess piece, he was born as a lawyer, and he is shrouded in his brother's aura, he is destined to be iron-blooded and ruthless, but now this drastic move has scared the world a lot, and what Wei Ji and I did in Dangjun was almost resolved. ”
"The impact is minimal."
"Just."
"After killing so many people and arresting so many officials, how should Qin Ting replenish it?"
"Even if Meng Yi can make people not care, but with the lack of such a large number of officials, where should Qin Ting make up for it?"
Zhang Liang frowned.
He didn't think much of it, though.
He knew that since Qin Ting dared to do this, dared to be so crazy, there must be a follow-up, everything he did in Wei Di was actually fulfilled by Qin Ting, and now he will not interfere in the slightest, nor will he pay too much attention, he just needs to do what he wants to do according to his own ideas.
When the time comes, I will be able to sort everything out.
Time passed.
During the month period issued by Meng Yi.
All counties and counties have sent relevant officials to nearby counties to supervise the storage of salt and iron.
After all
Meng Yi really has no worries.
Endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky.
They don't want to sacrifice themselves to fulfill other counties, especially this sacrifice, I am afraid that it will sacrifice a large number of people, how can they be willing.
Under the purge of Dangjun, Daqin's decree was finally implemented efficiently.
With nothing to do in Kanto, the world has entered a rare period of calm.
It's just that when the Kanto region was calm, a letter of order was being sent from Xianyang to the Northern Plains day and night, and to the Great Wall Army.
After Su Jiao and others handled it, it also spread to the major military camps.
Since then.
Transferred to the army! (End of chapter)
