Chapter 174 Wearing the flail to work, peeling the real grass
Putting away the folding fan with a swish sound again, Zhao Huan turned to He Ji and ordered: "Show it to him."
After He Ji sent a thick account book to Ji Ziming's desk, Zhao Huan continued: "It's so cheap to sell a nail for fifty guan? You can sell it for thousands of guan by just writing the subtitles yourself."
?”
There is really no reason why Zhao Huan should not be angry——
Think about Zhao Jixiang, who considered himself the Supreme Emperor of the Song Dynasty. He worked hard in Longde Palace to create calligraphy and paintings. How much could he sell for? The most expensive ones only cost tens of thousands!
The Ji Ziming in front of me is just an ordinary Jinshi, and his writing skills are not even worthy of carrying Zhao Jixiang's shoes. How can he sell it for a few thousand guan?
These thousands of coins were obtained by this bitch with the laws of the Song Dynasty! In other words, this bitch was digging up his roots as an emperor!
"Come here, take this beast from me!"
Just when Ji Ziming was looking through the account books, Zhao Huan became more and more angry as he thought about it. He simply snorted and ordered: "Bring all the people from Liu's shop here, I will be in the lobby of Quanzhou Mansion today."
Go get to know this good minister of the Song Dynasty!"
The guards of the Imperial City Department got Zhao Huan's order. When someone rushed behind the desk and grabbed Ji Ziming, they took off the official uniform and hat from Ji Ziming's body with three strokes, dragged him to the hall and beat him fiercely.
Thrown to the ground.
The people watching were stunned.
With the emergence of newspapers and the public's curiosity about the secrets of the royal family, it is no longer a secret that Zhao Huan likes to visit privately incognito.
But no one expected that they would be able to see an official's house in their lifetime, and in the lobby.
"Guan Jia! Guan Jia spare my life!"
While the people were still stunned and stunned, Ji Ziming had already come to his senses.
Ji Ziming, who usually pays great attention to etiquette and image, didn't care that he looked disheveled at this moment. Instead, he stood up and began to beg for mercy crazily: "Guan! Guan, please calm down. What I just said is true, if
It’s half false, I wish the sky would strike with thunder!”
However, as soon as Ji Ziming finished speaking, the soldiers of the Imperial City Division had already locked up the shopkeeper and servants of Liu's Shop not far from the lobby and brought them to the lobby. Even Xi Liangyou, who was sent by Ji Ziming to clean up the mess, was also there.
List.
Zhao Huan immediately looked at the ashen-faced Ji Ziming with a playful expression, and said with a smile: "Come on, explain to me what all this is about."
Ji Ziming failed to answer Zhao Huan's question, and instead collapsed on the ground.
If only Xi Liangyou was brought back, then there would be room for quibbles in everything. Even if he puts the blame on Xi Liangyou first, Xi Liangyou will definitely bear these charges for the sake of his family.
now……
"The salary given to you by the imperial court is too small? Is it treating you poorly? You have not remembered the words benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust at all. You are shameless and greedy, but you are not lagging behind others."
Zhao Huan sighed and said, "Can you give me a reason not to kill you?"
Originally, Zhao Huan just said this casually, but Ji Ziming shouted crazily like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw: "The official has mercy! The guilty minister naturally died unjustly, but the guilty minister was spared his life, but
It’s more effective than killing the guilty minister directly!”
He raised his head and glanced at Zhao Huan. Seeing Zhao Huan's noncommittal look, Ji Ziming plucked up the courage and continued: "As for the officials, nine out of ten officials in the world are greedy, and those who act like ministers are even less ignorant.
How many!
The guilty minister knows his crime, but he also has a heart of repentance. Today he plans to make decisions for the people, so as to rectify these bad gentry and return the people of Quanzhou to a bright and clear sky. If the officials directly kill the minister, wouldn't they tell everyone in the world
Is there no way back for corrupt officials?
If an official kills one official, can he possibly kill all the corrupt officials in the world? If the official is willing to spare the life of a minor official, it can set an example for the corrupt officials in the world and give them a chance to turn around. Isn't this a win-win move?
I hope the officials will think twice!"
Zhao Huan laughed.
Can’t we kill all the corrupt officials in the world?
Of course, there is no way to kill all the corrupt officials in the world.
Is Zhu Chongba cruel enough? The punishments are severe. Those who dare to embezzle more than sixty taels are directly skinned and hung in the lobby as a warning to those who come later. What is the result?
The result is that the latecomers were afraid of being restrained at first, but then they became less afraid after seeing it, and then they were hung up together.
Later, Zhu Chongba’s direct descendants carried the coffin to fight corruption. What happened in the end? A prime minister!
Zhao Huan was not so arrogant as to think that he could completely solve the problem of corruption, nor was he naive enough to think that only upright officials in the court were good, because upright officials had their uses, and corrupt officials had their uses.
Even in some cases, corrupt officials are more useful than honest officials. Because the corruption of corrupt officials is a crime and a handle to the emperor, corruption is not a problem. The problem is that people like Ji Ziming are still so greedy that they cannot be counted.
Ji Ziming collects money to do things. On the surface, it doesn't seem like a big deal, but in reality?
This guy collects money from the squire to bully the people!
Zhao Huan's logic is very simple——
Like Ji Ziming, there is a possibility that the government will force the people to rebel. Once the people rebel, the court will have to spend money to suppress it. This is equivalent to damaging the money of the court and the emperor, and enriching Ji Ziming himself.
If we go further, when the people's rebellion is too strong and cannot be suppressed, the final result is likely to be that the court will need to be replaced by a new court, and the emperor will also need to be replaced by a new emperor.
This is equivalent to digging a hole for the emperor Zhao Huan, and it is the kind of big hole that may break out at any time and bury Zhao Huan in it.
So Zhao Huan decided to bury Ji Ziming first.
Smiling and shaking his head, just when Ji Ziming's heart was in his throat, Zhao Huan smiled and said: "I often heard a gentleman named Lu Xun say that he chose the road by himself, even if he kneels down
Finished. Now I give these words to you and all the corrupt officials in the world."
"Of course I know that there are countless corrupt officials in this world. I also know that corrupt officials will grow again after being cut like leeks. But it doesn't matter. If one person is greedy for me, I will kill one person. If a thousand people are greedy for me, I will kill a thousand people. This world has never
There is no shortage of people who want to be officials. If I kill you, new officials will naturally take over."
"From now on, you will go to work in shackles and let me handle the issues that need to be dealt with in Quanzhou. When the new Quanzhou magistrate appointed by the Ministry of Civil Affairs takes office, I will have a good time handing over to him."
However, before Ji Ziming had time to be happy, Zhao Huan continued: "Then, you can be skinned and made into grass. From now on, you will be hung in the lobby of Quanzhou Mansion for those who come after you.
