The bell of Chen hour rang.
With the tolling of the bells, the time of judgment arrives.
A group of criminals and wealthy businessmen were rushed to the Square of the Heroes. In front of the Monument of the Heroes, these criminals who dared to tarnish the official atmosphere of Yunzhou County were pulled one by one to the simple execution platform that had been built in advance.
Zhao Jun didn't mean to torture them, he just wanted to behead them.
The prisoner came to the stage, and Jiang He, who was presiding over the trial, announced the prisoner's crime and illegality based on the information he received.
Immediately, amidst the angry shouts of the people in the city, he dropped the token of execution!
"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!"
Everyone was very excited, and they could only be described as hating corrupt officials deeply.
No one wants to live the same life as in the past, so when they knew that there was such a sign in Yunzhou County, they simply couldn't accept it.
Such behavior cannot be tolerated in Yunzhou County.
For these businessmen who give bribes and officials who take bribes, everyone has only one thought in their minds, and that is to kill! Kill them all!
This is the consensus of everyone!
This is the will of the people!
In this way, a group of wealthy businessmen who committed crimes and bribed officials were dragged to the execution platform.
After Jiang He read out their evidence of guilt, amidst the shouts of killing in the crowd, the executioner chopped off their heads with one knife, ending this sinful life.
Due to the large number of people, even if they came in batches, the process continued until the evening.
But not one of the people left the scene. They didn't even go to eat from morning until now. Instead, they waited angrily for these people to be executed one by one.
Finally, as the sun was about to set, the execution platform ushered in the last batch of prisoners.
Among them was Li Yi, the former top administrative official of Yunzhou County.
Accompanying him were the top wealthy businessmen in Yunzhou who directly bribed him.
Each of them runs a business firm with assets of no less than one million taels.
At the same time, they are also the only top wealthy businessmen who are qualified to be officials at Li Yi's level.
After standing in the audience all day, I was tired and thirsty.
Coupled with watching a batch of officials who had committed the same thing as him being beheaded one by one, God knows what kind of pressure Li Yi was under today.
It was finally his turn to take the stage. Under the threat of death, in addition to regrets about the past, Li Yi felt a sense of relief.
Everything is finally coming to an end!
Due to Li Yi's special status, the former governor of Yunzhou County, his betrayal was the most unacceptable to the people.
Before Jiang He had time to announce the evidence of guilt, a group of people below had already angrily thrown everything they could throw at them.
"Smash him to death! This bastard! How dare he!"
"Smash him to death. I hate such corrupt officials the most. My father was forcibly robbed of my land by those dog officials who colluded with businessmen. My father was not convinced and went to the Yamen to judge the situation, and he was beaten to death!"
"kill him!"
"kill him!"
"kill him!"
…
Li Yi enjoyed all the enthusiasm that the previous prisoners did not enjoy.
All kinds of rotten vegetables, leaves, rotten eggs, and even a few pairs of straw sandals that had not been washed for an unknown period of time were all thrown up.
Various unpleasant smells and unpredictable throwing objects caused innocent harm to the executioner standing on the stage, and he almost ran away on the spot.
It wasn't until the soldiers of the Yunhui Army who were maintaining order stopped the people that they stopped throwing.
However, the shouts of killing never stopped for a moment.
Seeing the angry eyes of the people in the audience and the various filthy things hanging on his body, Li Yi's inner defense finally collapsed.
I cried softly, feeling that my life had been an extraordinary failure.
On the ruling side, when people leave their posts, all the people send them off along the ten-mile-long street.
But as for me, it’s rotten eggs, rotten vegetables and leaves that keep coming!
What followed was rebuke and abuse from the people.
This obviously defined his life, and he lived in failure all his life!
But now it's too late even if I regret it. After all, I still sent myself to the guillotine.
Following Jiang He's order, the Zhan Li Jue token was thrown to his knees. Li Yi turned back and looked at Jiang He, who was sitting on the high platform, and smiled miserably.
When it comes to feelings, you are the only one who is going to die.
Your Majesty, it’s unfair!
The executioner spat a large amount of strong liquor onto the beheading knife, and pulled off the crime card stuck on the back of Li Yi's neck. The executioner spit into the palm of his hand, rubbed it, and said with a smile:
"This is the first time in my life that I, Old Wang, cut off a county governor's head. I don't know what's the difference between your head and other people's?"
After saying this, the executioner Lao Wang immediately stopped talking, raised the beheading sword in his hand high, aimed at Li Yi's neck and swung it hard!
Poof!
Blood spurted out and covered the execution platform, dyeing the execution platform that was already dyed dark brown even darker.
The head rolled to the side with a grunt, and his eyes were wide open.
The headless corpse stood stiff for a moment, and then slowly fell to the stage.
Soon, the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time came to the stage and quickly took away Li Yi's head and body for disposal.
The executioner Lao Wang recalled the feeling just now. After a while, he curled his lips and said: "It's no different from ordinary people. You will die just like being chopped. I don't think your neck is harder than others!"
…
Today's execution was for the principal criminal in this corruption case, and all the people came.
The family members and people involved in the crime will be executed at the Heroes' Square starting tomorrow.
You can't blame Zhao Jun for being ruthless, as his family members will not let him go.
Zhao Jun has always believed that since your family has enjoyed the benefits of your corruption, they will naturally bear the same responsibility.
In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent, that's why.
The people of Yunzhou County did not care much about the subsequent executions.
In the following days, all the family members of the officials and businessmen involved were executed in front of the Heroes' Square.
The major corruption case that shocked the entire Yunzhou County officialdom has finally come to an end.
The end of this corruption case also brought great changes to Yunzhou County's officialdom and shopping malls.
In addition to the large vacancies in the officialdom, large tracts of profit shares have also been vacated in the business environment of Yunzhou County.
Market conditions will automatically fill this gap.
However, the vacancies of Yunzhou County officials still need to be filled.
Today, the post of Yunzhou County Sheriff is taken over by Jiang He, but the chief officials of other departments are still vacant. Zhao Jun has no intention of appointing someone so soon. The corruption case seems to be over, but there is no real It's over, he still has one thing to do. Only when this matter is over, will this corruption case finally come to an end in the hearts of all officials in Yunzhou County.
That night, the meeting hall of the palace.
Almost all officials in the entire Yunzhou County were ordered by Zhao Jun to gather together.
No one knows why.
However, the seriousness of the corruption case that just passed made everyone unable to help but feel fear.
Could it be that this master hasn’t killed enough yet?
…
There's about one chapter left before it's over, and the next plot begins.
(End of chapter)
