Chongzhen three years, May.
Zhou Zheng ordered Cao Bianjiao to spread the net on ten sides, and the 10,000 army was divided into ten groups, and he carried out a vigorous suppression project in Hejian Mansion from the outside to the inside.
Qilian started a stable operation from the inside out.
The Hejian Mansion was immediately bustling with noise, and I don't know how many people were disturbed.
In just three days, Cao Bianjiao eliminated more than a dozen bandits, arrested nearly 300 bandits, and seized countless money and food.
Qi Lian was prepared and very purposeful. He arrested nearly a hundred people in a day in Hejian County!
In Hejian Mansion, people were panicked, rumors spread, and all officials and people were fidgeting.
When Zhou Zheng arrived at the Hejian Mansion, he sat down with Hu Qingzheng on chess and drank tea.
Behind Hu Qingzheng stood He Gong and Wei Zhong, two Fu Cheng, watching the two adults drinking tea, playing chess, bowing their heads, their faces condensed.
Although Hu Qingzheng was fooling, his chess skills were good. He smiled while watching Zhou Zheng's scattered chess game, but he sighed helplessly on his face, saying: "No wonder so many people impeach you when you were in Beijing, you can hold on. It's really lucky up to now."
If the Ming officials want to do something, the current chaotic government will inevitably offend many people, so there will be no few impeached people. The result is often that the impeached person will either voluntarily resign from office or wait to be sent to prison for questioning.
Don't talk about these local officials, they are the six branches of the imperial court, how many of the big figures in the cabinet can escape
In the short period of three years in the Chongzhen dynasty, the first assistants have been replaced by six, and there are more books in the six books. The cabinet ministers and the six books have been imprisoned everywhere.
The cabinet minister Qian Longxi and Qiao Yunsheng, Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, were deported. According to the news not long ago, Qiao Yunsheng had died in the guard.
Zhou Zheng played chess seriously and said, "Is someone impeaching you so soon?"
Hu Qingzheng sighed again, looked at the chessboard like nothing but love, and said, "It's probably on the road. Since yesterday, there have been dozens of officials and gentry who have come to me for petitions. What do you think I should do?"
Zhou Zheng fell silent and said lightly: "Either you stand up to support me, or you remain silent, if you talk nonsense, I will send you to the Department of Prisons."
Hu Qingzheng raised his head and glanced at Zhou Zheng. Seeing that he was not joking, he was silent for a while, and said, "If this goes on, you will have something big sooner or later."
Zhou Zhengdao: "Everyone is like you, my country should be subjugated by Daming."
Hu Qingzheng knew that Zhou Zheng could not be persuaded, and said helplessly: "I will try my best to help you figure out a solution in the court, you...you can do it for yourself."
Zhou Zheng smoothly picked up the tea cup and said, "Don't move, I have my way."
Hu Qingzheng blinked, and then picked up the teacup and smashed his mouth. He was very curious about Zhou Zheng's method.
He Gong and Wei Zhong listened to the conversation between Hu Qingzheng and Zhou Zheng, and the two looked at each other, their expressions of anxiety and palpitations almost exactly the same.
Hejian Mansion is different from Yongping Mansion. It has a large population, densely populated with gentry, and it is close to Gyeonggi. There is a little movement that the capital knows all about, not to mention such big moves.
People arrested by Qilian were all over Hejian County. Not to mention the rogues, there were even a lot of gangsters of the second generation of rich officials. There were even some relatives of the emperor, after being honored, they were arrested indiscriminately. This is going to pierce the sky!
Zhou Zheng put down his teacup, looked up at Wei Zhong and He Gong, and said, "The official is going to change the six rooms and the prison division of the government office, and the experience division, do you have any comments?"
The two hurriedly raised their hands and said, "The officials have no opinion."
The two of them had discussed it a long time ago, and their attitude was'no opinion'. In the future, if Zhou Zheng is questioned by the court, it will have nothing to do with them.
Zhou Zheng didn't care about them, as long as he didn't cause trouble to him.
Zhou Zheng said: "Call all the county magistrates, county princes, six rooms, experience divisions, prison divisions, etc., to come here to see the officer. As long as they don't come, they will be removed for whatever reason.
Liufang and other officials are entirely prefects, appointed by prefects, not officials, but officials. In the Ming Dynasty officialdom, they are the lowest level of existence, closest to officials, but not officials.
He Gong, Wei Zhong hesitated, and said, "Yes, I'll pass the order when I'm down."
While Zhou Zheng and Hu Qingzheng were drinking tea and playing chess, the Hejian County government was full of noise.
A middle-aged woman cried out to the middle-aged man, crying silently: "Master, you are just a son, Yan'er, you can't be taken away..."
The middle-aged person is the magistrate of Hejian County, Ningshan.
Ning Shan raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily: "What do I usually tell you? He did so many idiots and you covered him up, thinking that if you have me, everything will be fine and lawless. Now I know crying, it's too late. !"
"Master, I know it's wrong, I know it's wrong, please help Yan'er, he is only twenty years old, he is still a child, you can't save the dead without saving..." The woman cried heartbreakingly, full His face was limp on the ground with tears, and he hugged Ning Shan's leg tightly.
Ning Shan tightened his eyebrows, wanted to scold but couldn't say a word, full of anger, unable to vent, and became more and more angry.
At this time, an old lady with white hair, supported by the maid, walked in quickly, and she cried anxiously when she looked at Ning Shan: "Second, you must rescue Yan'er. Our Ning family has only one seedling. You can't let the Ning family break after..."
Ning Shan saw that the old lady was coming, and his anger turned into helpless helplessness, and said: "Mother, I will go and think of a way."
The old lady hurriedly said: "Go, go!"
The woman on the ground got up in a hurry and looked at Ning Shan nervously.
Ning Shan looked at the expressions of the family, feeling very uncomfortable, and strode out the door.
Before leaving the yamen, a group of people blocked it.
A middle-aged man with the appearance of a potbellied businessman roared anxiously: "Master Ning, my son has always been a duty. He has always been well-behaved. Master Ning, please let him out. I don’t pay much respect. You can do whatever you want. Say… "
"Master Ning, my grandson is only nineteen years old. He has always been well-behaved. He must have offended someone. I also asked Master Ning to observe the details and let my grandson out. Master Ning, you learned from the county. I have taught you for a few days. …" the gray-haired county school instruction said tremblingly.
"Master Ning, although the servants of our family usually cause some troubles, they have never had a life lawsuit. They are law-abiding, and I have asked Master Ning to open up a favor. The county is not going to repair the river, I donate one thousand taels..." The humanities are very gentle, and at first glance it is after the scholarly family.
More than a dozen people came, rushing towards Ning Shan with babbled words, all of them were figures with faces and faces in the Hejian Mansion.
Ning Shan's face was sullen, and he couldn't even talk.
How do you say that his son was also taken away? Although the arrester was a soldier in Hejian County, he was not in his charge? He can't control it
Ning Shan had nothing to say. He suffocated his stomach and shook his hand and turned to enter the door. The concierge hurriedly closed the door, blocking the crowd coming in.
Listening to the shouts outside, Ning Shan saw the oncoming old lady and his wife, frowned, said nothing, and strode towards the back door.
Ningshan naturally had no other place to go, and went straight to the government office. (End of this chapter)
