    "Excuse me, the two ministers came hand in hand. They must have something important to discuss. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. Wuji is all ears." I raised my hand to Wei Zheng and then sat upright and said in a deep voice.  Wei Zheng sat up straight, his back as straight as a proud snowy green pine.  "Sir, I have something important to report. At the beginning of the month, someone from the joint investigation team for the impeachment of Helian Chunshan, the governor of Longxi County, secretly colluded with the Longxi aristocratic family members, and secretly obstructed the work of the joint investigation team that was investigating and determining the household registration of the farm population on the grounds of unrest on the border.  , So far, the joint investigation team has been stationed in Longxi for nearly two months, but the fields that have been inspected are not even half" Listening to Wei Zheng's story, my brows became more and more frowned, and his expression became gloomy.  "Helian Chunshan I thought that he was very popular in governing the people and taking good care of people's livelihood. In addition, when our army arrived in Longxi, he brought the whole county back, so I specially kept him in his post." Helian  This surname originally comes from the Xiongnu.  Because the Xiongnu Chanyu took a Han woman as his wife, his descendants followed the surname Liu.  During the ancient Han Dynasty, there was a Xiongnu tribe in the north. The leader was called Youxian King Liu Qubei. One of his descendants called themselves King of Xia and changed the surname Liu to Helian, which means Hehe is connected with the sky.  In the Western Jin Dynasty, Liu Hu changed his name to Tiefu.  In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Liu Hu's great-grandson Bobo was called the King of Great Xia, founded the Xia Dynasty, and changed his surname to Helian.  ¡°The reason why I remember this Helian Chunshan clearly is precisely because of the peculiarity of his surname.  I didn¡¯t expect this guy to actually jump out to the impeachment joint investigation team at such a time. Could it be that this guy is also an opponent of the New Deal and is trying to obstruct it in different ways?  "Now he actually impeached the joint investigation team? Could it be said that his impeachment was just to cover up his secret obstruction of court affairs?" I glanced at the two of them, feeling slightly dissatisfied.  "Why didn't you report this important matter to me early?" Wei Zheng frowned and nodded.  "It's not that I didn't report it, but that I and the prefect just wrote a letter to me. The content of the letter was too vague and unclear. Although I didn't know whether it was true or not, I informed Du Shangshu after receiving the letter.  "Please Du Shangshu send someone to investigate." Du Shangshu is naturally Du Ruhui, and Du Ruhui, who is the head of the General Intelligence Bureau, does not look good.  "I would like to report to my lord, after receiving the news from Wei Shangshu, I have already arranged the manpower to go there. However, in the land of Longxi, the aristocratic families are so intertwined that it took a lot of effort to find out some definite information and evidence before I dared to report it.  "Lord." After hearing this, I couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration in my mind, and suddenly thought of a title: Guanlong Group, the general name of the powerful military groups around Guanzhong in Shaanxi and Longshan (or Liupanshan) in Gansu.  Even so, the Guanlong Group has become somewhat sluggish under the guidance and suppression of this young master, but it cannot be denied that it still has a strong influence, including the newly established Guanzhong Industrial and Commercial United Group just a few months ago, among which  Behind many merchants are the shadows of many Guanlong families.  "However, these guys are obviously very aware of the extremely cruel methods that I use to deal with my enemies. Don't those guys not want their own lives and even ignore the lives of their families?"  "Are they still complaining that my sword is not fast enough? Or that I have killed not enough people?" I took a long breath and asked in a deep voice.  Hearing this, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui looked at each other and saw the helpless bitterness in each other's eyes.  In the end, Wei Zheng stood up and spoke: "Although they have obstructed many times, they have never taken strong measures. Instead, they have used various reasons, and even secretly bribed the members of the joint investigation team" After hearing this  When I said that, my original solemn expression couldn't help but froze, and my face was so gloomy that it almost dripped water.  "How are they?" "My lord, among the seventeen members of the joint investigation team, five have accepted bribes, and two of them have accepted concubines as gifts from the Longxi family." Du Ruhui gritted his teeth and replied directly:  "The amount of bribes each of these five people received ranged from a thousand guan to tens of thousands of guan. For example, Dugu Yun, the head of the joint investigation team, not only accepted a concubine and 7,000 guan of money and silk, but also received two  The title deed of ten hectares of fertile landit is precisely because of this reason." Hearing this, I couldn't help but laugh, with the corners of my mouth slightly curved and my eyes indifferent. But the more this happened, the more nervous Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui became.  They don't know that my young master's smile represents his helplessness over his random thoughts. After all, he is too nervous that his new policy will be attacked by others. Moreover, the person in charge is still a prefect, so this young master subconsciously thinks that it is an old-style bureaucracy and  Those aristocratic families are changing their ways to challenge this young master's new policy.  But in the end, not only was Helian Chunshan not involved in this matter, but he was on the side of justice. On the contrary, there was something wrong with these elites who were selected by me to represent the will of the court.  I rely on his grandma, how can I not make this young master dumbfounded?  "Dugu Yun, I remember that when he first became an official, he was quite talented, full of passion, and had the ambition to serve the country and the people Who would have thought that in less than half a year, he would turn into this?  "I squinted my eyes, sat behind the table, tapped the table gently with my fingers, and made a clear sound."How have Dugu Yun and others behaved during this period?" he asked in a leisurely voice, "How have Dugu Yun and others behaved during this period?" Seeing my young master's calm and calm appearance, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui looked at me.  His eyes were a little more awe-inspiring.  "During this period, I often wrote to various ministries to report on the progress, and I have been complaining that the Governor of Longxi was too harsh. In addition, there are officials in the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Civil Affairs speaking for Dugu Yun and others." Du Ruhui replied without thinking.  .  "The Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Civil Affairs? I remember that Fang Xuanling also worked part-time in these two ministries. Why didn't Fang Xuanling find out?" I asked, stroking my brow.  At this time, Sister Qingxia served us fragrant tea. Smelling the fragrance of the tea and the concern between Sister Qingxia's eyebrows, my mind became calmer and calmer. Wei Zheng cleared his throat and replied: "  Lord, it¡¯s no wonder that Fang Shangshu is very busy these days because of the tax reform, and the staff in each department is not fully staffed. Fang Shangshu is often the first to arrive at the office and the last to leave" Listen  After saying this, I couldn't help but feel a little silent. Yes, there is a shortage of manpower. Although I have attracted more than two hundred graduates from Hancheng, plus the original officials and the officials recruited during this period, I am afraid there are also  Three to four hundred people.  " However, due to the subdivision of work, each department does not exceed two-thirds. In some departments, there are only a dozen or so people supporting the scene, and they are often as tired as a bunch of dead dogs.  Fang Xuanling, who serves as several ministers, is even harder.  "Well, I really can't blame him." I nodded and replied.  "As I said before, we are short of manpower, so we hired a lot of barely qualified officials. Unexpectedly, nothing happened to those officials, but something happened to the people who were entrusted with important tasks." He vomited for a long time.  After taking a deep breath, I asked in a deep voice.  "Have you been able to confirm it?" "Don't worry, my lord, I have used two groups of people, light and dark, to find out more or less, but there is no discrepancy, which shows that Governor Helian of Longxi County is not lying.  " Du Ruhui replied directly.  I nodded.  "What do you two think should be done?" Wei Zheng raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Of course it will be dealt with according to the law, but my lord, I think that in addition to the members of the joint investigation team who violated the court's orders, those who  Should we also make some representations about the actions of the family members? Otherwise, the officials will be punished, but they, the culprits who seduced the officials, can get away with it. This will definitely make those officials dissatisfied, and more importantly, will  To boost their arrogance." Du Ruhui nodded, gave me a deep bow, and earnestly advised: "Yes, I believe that those who accept bribes should follow the law, but those who tempt with large profits, if they do not  The punishment will make all the merchants in the world follow suit in the future, for the sake of short-term profits. Even if the truth is found out, only those officials will be punished, and these people can get away with it. " "Yes, just accept it.  They bribed officials, and allowed those wealthy gentry and merchants who were tempting with huge profits.  Then, there must be injustice in the hearts of the officials, and those who have benefited may become more and more unscrupulous.  If you don't deal with those who are tempting, the court and the officials will definitely be alienated from each other in the future." I nodded and replied.  "I declare that those who accept bribes will still be punished according to the new law, and those who induce others to commit crimes with heavy profits will be punished as accomplices" As my master continued to talk, Sister Qingxia quickly added my words  It was recorded on paper, and both Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and repeatedly praised the good deeds.  Five days later, all five members of the original joint investigation team who were in Longxi County were arrested and escorted to Chang'an for trial. Similarly, the Longxi family members and the wealthy businessmen were also found out.  The guys were taken to Chang'an for trial.  This caused the entire Guanzhong to be in an uproar, especially those from aristocratic families. They never imagined that if they gave money to those officials, not only would the officials be severely punished, but they would also be punished in the same way.  Many aristocratic families were furious. After receiving the report as soon as possible, I immediately ordered the troops stationed in Longxi to start gathering.  Those Longxi aristocratic families who originally wanted to make a fuss finally bowed their heads in front of the powerful armed force, the state machine. After those criminals were taken to Chang'an, in the former Dali Temple Yamen, the current Supreme Court was subjected to  After a public trial, the officials who had accepted bribes were removed from their posts. In addition, depending on the amount of bribes they accepted, they were sentenced to five to ten years of hard labor according to law.
