Chapter 67 The wall is really powerful, sticks and carrots

Li Chengcheng today wore pink three-collar narrow sleeves, two or three-inch exposed skirt, and white fur in front of the outer sleeves. His face was slightly red, and he was blown by the cold wind like he was painted with rouge, his red lips slightly opened, and his white teeth were slightly exposed.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the gentle and beautiful woman, who was a little anxious, blinked her eyes, and suddenly stepped forward, stared at Li Chengcheng, and hummed, "Well, you said you didn't find it?"

Li Chengcheng was a little panicked and hurriedly took a step back and wanted to sue the crime, but found that the emperor had made another step, only half a foot away from her face.

"Prince forgive me." Li Chengcheng had no choice but to retreat again, with a panic on his face, "I will definitely find it if I go and look for it again."

"Is that?" Zhu Youxiaoqiang leaned against each other step until the girl leaned against the wall and had no choice but to retreat.

Li Chengcheng felt the chill on his back and his head was pressed against the wall, like a little white rabbit trapped with nowhere to escape.

Well, in Zhu Youxiao's opinion, it was a helpless little hamster forced into the corner by a cat.

Just as Li Chengcheng was about to hide from the side, Zhu Youxiao's arm was raised and pressed against the wall, blocking her way.

Just as the girl was facing the face of the emperor who was close to him, she was at a loss and opened her lips to seek guilt and begged for mercy, the emperor's face suddenly became bigger.

Well, it's close, and there is no gap.

The warm cabinet became quiet, and Li Chengcheng slowly closed his eyes, his mind flew away in the passionate kiss, and his mind was blank.

After a while, Zhu Youxiao slowly moved away reluctantly, and it smelled so good!

Li Chengcheng opened his eyes and his expression was a little confused.

"Well, the cat is back, and I have punished you too." Zhu Youxiao showed a bad smile and said, "Wear more clothes and accompany me to shoot."

Li Chengcheng's eyes were round and he was regaining his mind.

Then the girl blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look at the emperor's smiling face, and only a mosquito-like voice responded softly: "See me."

Hehe, the wall dong is so powerful, I finally have a chance to use this trick!

…………………………………

The Chinese New Year is about to be celebrated in more than a month, but the killings in Jiashan County have cast a heavy shadow on the heads of the gentry students in Jiangnan, making them frightened. How could they have the intention to celebrate?

This is normal. Killing a group of evil gentry students, scouting their homes and exiling thousands of people does not mean that the dust has settled and everything is over.

The new Jiangsu Governor Wei Guangwei took office quickly and publicly claimed that "the use of the law is severe, and the intention is to eliminate the strong and the violence. The evil local tyrants will be eliminated."

At the same time, the court issued a decree that anyone who has eliminated fame and gentry for illegal acts will not be admitted to the imperial examination for life.

Starting from Jiashan County, local officials in various prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River have also become tough and began to vigorously investigate the hidden money and grain, and severely punish the illegal slaves and servants. The directly damaged groups are naturally gentry and students.

Under the intimidation of killing the chicken to warn the monkey, most of the gentry students who committed illegal acts such as committing false mail, tax evasion, etc., took the initiative to refund and repay, and finally had the desire to fear the law.

But there are also some greedy people who are lucky enough to pay back their money without complete payment, thinking that they can get away with it.

But the guys who were blinded by money forgot that this was no longer the local government’s solemn investigation, and the East Factory was involved.

Therefore, just after the one-month lenient period, local governments who received information from the Dongchang began to punish illegal acts severely and severely.

According to the latest order of the court, those who conceal the report after the deadline and fail to report the report and do not clear and repaid the payment will be eliminated, those who have good fortune will be cancelled, and those who have good fortune will be fined and half of their property will be confiscated, and 50 sticks will be shackled and shackled for three days.

Is the punishment severe? Judging from history, it is really not the strictest and most ruthless.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, any person who verified tax evasion was not only confiscated all his money, but also sentenced to guard the border for one year;

In the late Tang Dynasty, in order to prevent private sales and tax evasion, severe penalties were formulated: "All three offenders of private sales (selling) were 300 kilograms, and they were considered dead; if they traveled for a long time, even if they were little tea, they would die...";

According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, those who sell private salt and evade taxes will sell more than one taels of sticks and "fifth five"; they dare to violently resist taxes, "poach and sell private salt with a stick, and more than three people will be executed with a stick and a head." The sale of private tea "one pound will be a hundred sticks, and sell more than twenty pounds of sticks and abandon the market, and sell private wine with five pounds and execute it."

In the Yuan Dynasty, private sales of salt, tea, wine and other goods were the same as tax evaders, and they were all "seventy rods, two years of prisoners, and half of their property was left without an official position."

Even if the neighbors do not report tax evasion, they will be given a hundred tricks. "The tax evasioners will have half of the goods and half of the goods and the goods will be paid for rewards.

The penalty for punishing important taxes such as salt evasion and tea was reduced in the Ming Dynasty, but the economic penalty was still very strict. Even if the tax evasion is evaded, the penalty was not vague. Once tax evasion, a thousand guan would be fined.

Whether it is private goods evasion or hidden tax evasion of land, the nature is the same and there is no essential difference.

The local officials and students who are usually hypocritical and elegant in nature soon paid a heavy price for their greed.

In addition to fame, confiscation of half of his property, spanking and showing public shackles, this series of severe punishments, ranging from politics, economy, and personal dignity, unceremoniously pulled down the fig leaf of illegal town officials and students.

"......... Those who have always had the reputation of Qing Dynasty have all the beautiful houses and gardens and beautiful acres in the south of the city, and they all have famous places and fields; they have established themselves and acted without knowing how to be virtuous and have good spirits..."

"...The camp is profitable. Although Tao Zhu Yidun is rich, he works every day, and he is like a hungry dog ​​begging for mercy..."

In conjunction with the ruthless severe punishment, the Ming Forum also stepped up its efforts, criticized and exposed all kinds of illegal acts of bad gentry students.

Although ordinary people are five or six, also known as the family of poetry and books, or as the family of good deeds, they can look at what they do. They are greedy and shameless, and are no different from hungry dogs.

This scolding is really cruel and does not give you any decent attitude when punishing. What kind of scholars and gentry on both sides is to make you lose your politeness and lose your face.

With the severe crackdown, the officers and soldiers mobilized by the Northern Zhili and Nanjing Jingying were also stationed in the eight prefectures in Jiangnan, and used knives and guns to suppress the noise that the general was not prosperous.

At this time, those evil local tyrants and illegal gentry truly saw the iron fist of the court and the emperor's determination.

The severely punished felt resentment but could only keep silent; the fear and worries of luck were fearful and rushed to surrender to the government for lenient mercy, for fear that one step at night would be hit and destroyed.

But at this time, the new Jiangsu Governor Wei Guangwei was in Jiashan County, accompanied by the county magistrate Liu Lishun, congratulating Zheng Yuanjin and his son who were so flattered that he was in a dream.

Amid the sound of firecrackers and drums, the plaque "Finish the national courses and follow the public and the law" written by the emperor pen was hung high on the lintel, and the red cloth covered was lifted, demonstrating the honor won by the Zheng family.

"Long live, long live, long live!" Zheng Yuanjin and Zheng Shaokang knelt on the ground and bowed three times.
