Chapter 70 A Nice Woman

Yun Zhao was very sure that he gave the people five catties of white rice!

Then, what the people received was strange. According to a survey by Han Lingshan, the people even received firecrackers.

This is excessive.

The reason why the magistrate dared to do this was that the wheat from Lantian County was issued!

“The people will hate us to death.”

With regard to this matter, Yun Zhao simply can’t handle it. If he is seriously investigated, Zhang Guozhu, Yun Zhang and the local officials will all be punished again.

“No one hates us. The people who get the firecrackers are still very happy. Your Majesty, to be honest, as long as they are taken for nothing, the people will be very happy. As for the converted money and food, they are actually used by the people.

First of all, according to the Lantian Law, the Kingdom did not have the obligation to distribute food to the people. Now, it is just a common celebration, showing that the dynasty is financially prosperous.

The life of the officials below is not easy. Seventy percent of the taxes collected from various regions have to be turned in, while only 30 percent of the local taxes are to be paid. With this little money and food, they are also responsible for public security, development, road construction, water conservancy, and aiding the poor Responsibility.

This is how the development of the country proceeds, and there is no need for your majesty to delve too deeply into it. “

“In the past, I remember that you were a person who hated evil.”

“Weichen is still the same now!”

“How do I think you are not?”

Zhang Guozhu smiled and said: “Weichen knows that he used to be a local official, but now he is the in-laws of all the officials. People have already said that it is difficult to be in-laws if they are not deaf or dumb. As long as the hearts of these officials are still used by the local people, You shouldn’t ask about this in the small section. After all, they are the officials governing the localities. We are not. They know the truth in each place better than we do.

Your Majesty must think that he has been deceived. Just stare at them and don’t put money or food into your pocket. “

Hearing what Zhang Guozhu said, Yun Zhao said to Han Lingshan: “Extend your hand and chop your hand, stretch your leg and chop your leg!”

Han Lingshan smiled and said, “I’m staring.”

Yun Zhao sighed and said to Zhang Guozhu: “Our great persistence is just such a little compromise.”

“Before, my gaze was on a hundred years later. Since I became the prime minister of your majesty, my gaze can look at up to five years. I can see things in five years. Over five years, my eyes are completely dark.

And ah, I think that the person who looks at things for decades, hundreds of years, or even longer, should be your majesty, not me. “

Yun Zhao nodded, he had to admit that Zhang Guozhu’s words made sense.

This time, Yun Zhao did not go to sparsely populated Shanxi, but chose to enter Henan, then Shandong, and finally arrived at Yanjing. Compared with Shanxi, Henan, and Shandong where the population was completely wiped out by the gangsters back then. People’s livelihoods are restored much faster in the hardest-hit areas that are also ravaged by gangs.

Yun Zhao’s trip went through almost the entire Henan. After arriving in Xuzhou, Shandong, he had to change to a boat and head north along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

The journey along the way was very quiet, the magistrate’s control was also very effective, and basically there was no complaint.

Yun Zhao himself doesn’t like the matter of suing the imperial court. If you have any grievances, you should go to the Department of Justice or the Ministry of Justice, instead of coming to him, the emperor who will not judge the case and will not investigate.

Only after arriving in Xuzhou, there was a complaint.

This made Huang Chenghai, the prefect of Xuzhou, extremely angry.

It is a pity that people have already knelt down in the middle of the road with the paper held high, blocking the way the guards go forward, and these guards also hate such emergencies, so they **** the accuser and trapped them in the army to move on.

Yun Zhao sat in the palace prepared by Huang Chenghai for him, took a sip of tea, and said to Han Lingshan: “Let’s talk about it, everyone has come to me. If you have something to say earlier, so as not to be embarrassed for a while.”

Han Lingshan Tantan said: “What is so embarrassing about Weichen. Li Yan’s head has been made into a wine bowl by his majesty. Now, his wife is going to ask his majesty to ask for this wine bowl for her husband. A whole body.

The trouble is your Majesty. “

“Shouldn’t Li Yan’s wife be the Red Lady?”

“The Red Lady was never Li Yan’s wife. The real wife was Li Hongji’s original wife, Xing. Now the person who is blocking the way is the Xing. Back then, we all thought that Xing died in the war. The prefect of Xuzhou discovered the Xing clan when he was enthroned. He once played his majesty, hoping to behead Xing clan. It was his majesty who personally approved that the crime was Li Yan alone. As a result, the courage of others became bolder and dare to block the way I asked your majesty for a drink.”

“No!”

After Yun Zhao heard Han Lingshan’s explanation of the cause of the matter, he immediately refused.

The reason why the heads of those gangsters turned into wine cups was placed in the Tushan Memorial Hall for the sole purpose of shocking the world and returning Li Yan’s head to his family for no reason.

If you do, I’m sorry those soldiers who died fighting Li Yan.

“Go back and tell Xing that Li Yan is a giant bandit, killing people like hemp, and the first two places of his body are his home. Let her forget about this. Since the country has pardoned her, she should live well.

Han Lingshan frowned and left the palace. He thought this was a bit weird.

On the second day of repairing in Xuzhou, heavy snow fell, and Xuzhou was covered with heavy snow overnight.

Yun Zhao inspected the Yellow River all the way to Xuzhou, a battleground for military strategists.

People born here are unlucky most of the time. As long as the dynasty changes, Xuzhou City will definitely be destroyed once, as long as the Yellow River overflows in Shandong once, Xuzhou City must also be destroyed once.

This city has no idea how many times it has been rebuilt and how many times it has been destroyed.

The place where Yun Zhao stands now is called Chongzhen City.

Tomorrow, the Yellow River burst its **** in the fourth year of the Qi, and the water was one foot three feet deep. The city was completely flooded, so it moved to the south of the city for reconstruction. This is the second time Xuzhou moved to the city. In the first year of Chongzhen, the water receded, the silt in the city was one to five meters thick, and the houses and streets were buried in the sand. Shi Bingbei Dao Tang Huan was rebuilt on the original site, which is called Chongzhen City.

In the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, Li Yan and Li Hongji fought here. They fought fiercely for a whole month and a half, and this city, which had been repaired for a few years, once again became riddled with holes.

Huang Chenghai and his predecessor, Xuzhou prefect, spent countless thoughts before rebuilding the city. Borrowing the old city as the center, Xuzhou City was expanded by a hundred meters and turned into a defenseless city that looks like Lantian County.

Things here are weird. Most of the people live around Xuzhou City. There is almost no population in the vast area under Xuzhou’s rule.

“Li Yan, in the battle with Li Hongji, Xuzhou natives killed 160,000 people. At that time, the corpses under the city of Xuzhou were piled up like a mountain, almost level with the city. To this day, the wells in the city can still get the heads and corpses.

Weichen had to order all wells to be closed, live water introduced, and to choose a place to re-drill the wells. It can be said that Xuzhou itself is a city built on corpses. So far, when people build houses, the first thing they must do is to invite monks. , Taoist recite scriptures to expel those wronged souls. “

“and then?”

Yun Zhao asked.

“Then? Then naturally the foundation is excavated, then lime is filled, and finally houses are built on the lime foundation.”

“Han Lingshan told me last night that Li Hongji’s treasure is hidden in a well. What do you think of this matter?”

Huang Chenghai was taken aback for a moment and said, “Really?”

Yun Zhao nodded and said: “Xing Clan lives in loneliness now. She keeps this secret and dare not stay away from Xuzhou City, and dare not tell others about this secret. She feels that only by telling me can she get a little reward and improve her life. , Can continue to live.”

Huang Chenghai smiled and said: “This woman is very smart. Even if he tells the Weichen, the Weichen will send her to the Western Regions or Nanyang for the reputation of the government after he picks up the treasure.

Only tell your Majesty that this is the safest way. “

“That’s the truth. You immediately start digging according to the Fang Wei given by Xing’s family. Instead, I want to see what Li Hongji has robbed in Fengyang.”

Huang Chenghai took the order to go to work, and Duoduo, wearing a cloak, came over and said, “I want to go and see it.”

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, “You have also heard clearly. Regardless of the value of these treasures, they must be left in Xuzhou Prefecture to build a place. You don’t have your share.”

“Isn’t this Xing dedicated to you?”

“Wrong, it was dedicated to the emperor, not to Yun Zhao.”

“The concubine didn’t want to take it, just just look at it…”

Yun Zhao shook his head and walked down the Xuzhou city wall. What he saw just now was very clear. The Yellow River, which appeared shining in the snow, was winding by the edge of Xuzhou city, firmly bound by two dams.

Seeing this, Yun Zhao felt relieved.

The weather in early November was not too cold. The Yellow River was not frozen. The snow that fell last night melted quickly after the sun came out. Yun Zhao had to arrive in Yanjing before the Grand Canal was frozen.

In the evening, Huang Chenghai came to report the excavation of Li Hongji’s treasure.

After listening to Huang Chenghai’s return, Yun Zhao felt somewhat regretful. Most of the treasures in this batch were ritual objects that Li Hongji snatched from Fengyang, including various giant tripods, bells, and jade objects. As for the gold and silver objects, Li had long been robbed by Li Hongji. Rock, Li Hongji was squandering.

These things were of little use to Huang Chenghai. As a result, Qian Duoduo bought them all as a queen for one million silver dollars.

This is impossible. Except for the royal family, it is not appropriate for anyone to use these ritual instruments. Although the Lantian Dynasty has long abolished countless taboos, there are still very few people in the world to take in such things.

Qian Duoduo also rewarded Xing’s one thousand silver dollars~www.wuxiax.com~ Xing’s did not have any hidden secrets. This woman was very cunning. When Li Yan was killed, she escaped from death by fraud. After hearing that His Majesty had pardoned Zhu Yuxu, He jumped out and gambled again, but they got the right bet and survived, and now they are still carrying two Li Yan’s wicked seeds.

Hearing that his Majesty arrived in Xuzhou, he jumped out again and told his Majesty the secret of Li Hongji’s treasure in the form of an imperial lawsuit, in exchange for the chance to live a real life and live in peace.

Your Majesty, the Weichen thought that this woman could not stay, including Li Yan’s two evil species! “

Every word in Han Lingshan is full of murderous intent.

Yun Zhao smiled, patted Han Lingshan on the shoulder and said: “The matter is over, and now it is our world. I am tolerant to these people who have survived by chance, and there is no explanation in the law to kill them.”

“Secret execution is.”

“That’s wrong. When we want others to obey the laws, we must first obey them. I don’t expect Da Ming people to suddenly wake up and become people like us. I just hope that they can at least obey the laws we made.”
