Chapter 683 I am Master Qingtian(2/2)
These people's excuses are extremely righteous.
They didn't know if there was anyone else behind the person who sent the money, but since the person who sent the money could send so much money, there must be something wrong with him.
The Taxation Department of the Taxation Department is responsible for the world's taxes, and naturally has the power to investigate the assets of local lawbreakers.
A home search is a means of checking assets.
The transfer between the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River made my heart suddenly feel heavy.
Obviously, when Prince Qin entered Yangzhou this time, he must have notified the Yangzhou Taxation Department in advance, and asked these people to target the officials in the yamen in advance, and just wait for him to enter the city today and take him here.
.
Zhu Xi just smiled and said: "I heard that there were many absentees in the official assessment of the 18th Prefecture of Zhili. This time I came to Yangzhou for this matter. I didn't know it beforehand.
After receiving the errand, I realized that Yangzhou Prefecture is really good. There are 562 officials in each department, and 479 of them were absent from the exam. I also saw the reasons for the absence from the Governor's Yamen.
, it seems that many people are unwell or busy with official duties."
When Zhu Xi presented the data, all the Yangzhou officials present turned pale.
It would make sense if one or two people used physical discomfort or official duties to cope with the official evaluation.
When nearly 500 of the nearly 600 officials in Yangzhou Prefecture use these reasons to miss the exam, it is really unjustifiable.
It can even be said that this is intentional.
Although all the 17 prefectures of Zhili Province used similar reasons this time, Yangzhou Prefecture was the most exaggerated, with the largest number of absentees and the largest proportion.
Yangzhou officials were speechless.
But Zhu Ping had a lot to say.
He snorted and said calmly: "Before I came here this time, I told the junior officials that I was here to preside over fairness. This time, there were so many absences from the official assessment of Yangzhou Prefecture, either because of health reasons or because of official duties.
I have been thinking about it for a long time. I have been thinking about it all night long. I thought about it for a long time before I came up with a reason. I don’t know if you think this is the case."
As Zhu Ping spoke, his eyes swept over everyone present deeply.
No one dared to speak.
Who knows what His Highness, King Qin, will say next moment.
Zhu Ping tilted his head and glanced at Guan Huaigong with a smile.
Guan Huaigong was a little confused and didn't know what this man's look meant.
And Zhu Xi had already spoken: "I feel that you, the chief officials, must have treated the yamen officials too harshly. You are using them like donkeys. Otherwise, how could so many people miss the exam?"
What the hell is the reason for this?
Guan Huaigong couldn't help but cursed secretly in his heart. He knew that this man could not speak serious words.
It would be better for me to tell the governor at that time and just do what the governor's office did in other prefectures and counties and directly investigate and convict these officials who were absent from the examination one by one.
The Lianghuai Transfer Envoy, Yangzhou Magistrate and others present also looked confused.
Prince Qin, what kind of logic is this?
Why did this matter get involved with them?
When did the officials in the yamen become donkeys, they became tired donkeys.
"Junior official, do you think the king's decision on the case is fair enough? Can you say Qingtian?"
At this time, Zhu Xi looked at Guan Huaigong, who was full of slander, with a proud look on his face that he was the Qingtian Master.
Guan Huaigong had no choice but to curse in his heart again, but he forced a smile on his face and said respectfully: "What the prince said is absolutely true."
Zhu Feng snorted: "In that case, things will be easier to handle."
Snap.
Zhu Xi clapped his hands in front of everyone.
Immediately, countless uniformed guards rushed up from downstairs, all of them looking fiercely and staring at the Yangzhou officials present with sinister eyes.
A few floors downstairs, there were also chaotic movements.
"How brave of you! Why do you want to take me down?"
"Who gave you the courage? If I have committed something, if you want to arrest me, you have to issue an order from the court to let me go!"
"..."
There were bursts of shouting downstairs.
Then.
There were muffled sounds coming upstairs, followed by pitiful moans and pleas for mercy.
On the top floor of Jiangnan Tower, everyone looked tense and panicked.
You can imagine what the scene is downstairs with your feet.
Zhu Ming also stood up and smiled: "The officials in Yangzhou Prefecture were seriously absent from the examination. I took the order. It has been found out that it was the chief officials of the Yangzhou Prefecture who treated the officials harshly and made them sick from overwork."
, caused by tight errands and oppression. The evaluation of the officials of the 18th Prefecture of Nanzhili is a major matter of the country. The governor's Yamen petitioned the cabinet for approval. As officials of the court, you should have shared the worries of the court, but you did the opposite.
By doing so, the important affairs of the imperial court cannot be carried out. The king is entrusted by the imperial court with the power of life, death and decision-making. Now it is decreed that the officials of the Yamen of Yangzhou Prefecture, the Salt Transfer Envoy Department of Huaidu and Huaidu, the Governor's Yamen of Water Transport and other departments have delayed state affairs and hindered state affairs.
In Sheji, sins cannot be pardoned, all of them will be punished and beheaded immediately!"
Following Zhu Xi's order.
The Imperial Guards, who had been waiting for a long time, drew their swords and took down the Yangzhou officials who had not reacted one by one.
They couldn't tolerate these people crying out for mercy, so they were escorted downstairs in Jiangnan by the powerful and powerful guards.
Not long after.
Screams rang out one after another, and the smell of blood surged from the bottom of the building to the top.
Guan Huaigong was so shocked by this scene that his scalp went numb.
Before even eating, this man was beheaded by all the officials in Yangzhou city!
"Those officials who are absent from the examination..."
Guan Huaigong muttered in a low voice with some fear.
At this time, Zhu Xi stood by the window with his hands in his sleeves, looking at the bloody scene downstairs.
Outside the Jiangnan Tower, there were already heads rolling in and rivers of blood flowing. The officials who were escorted here were so frightened that their buttocks were wet.
"A bunch of useless things."
