"Your Excellency, Liang Qi, a common man, pays homage to your Excellency." The owner of Liangjia Rice Shop was brought to the court. Yu Le took a closer look at this man. He looked gentle and gentle, but it was a pity that he was a beast wearing human skin.
"Let me ask you, Liang Qi, how much did you pay for the grain that Zhou Jin bought you?"
"I, I do business normally."
"I asked you how much you paid. If you don't answer, do you want to be tortured?"
"Haha, sir, I am a scholar, and the country has laws." Liang Qi did not give Yu Le face.
"Oh, you still know the laws. Let me ask you, can a scholar do business?"
"This, that, no, it's not explicitly allowed." Liang Qi knew he was in trouble.
"Let me ask you, do you want to be a businessman or a scholar?"
"I, I,..." Liang Qi did not dare to answer, because being a scholar would not punish him, but he would have to give up his business career. Businessmen are the lowest class of people, and those who engage in business do not receive good treatment. Officials, Agriculture, industry, and commerce, in this era, wealthy businessmen have no status.
"Let me ask you again, how much did you pay for the grain?"
"The small one, the small one is fifty cents per stone." Liang Qi started to sweat at this time.
"When you collect the grain, you know that it is the country's grain reserve. Have you never thought about why the price is so low?"
"No, I don't know. Zhou Jin didn't tell me. I really don't know! It's all his fault. Sir, please investigate!" Liang Qi began to blame.
"Liang Qi, as a scholar, you are enjoying the country's welfare and coveting the country's wealth. You don't want to be a scholar anymore. Come on! Put Liang Qi in jail and be angry after hearing this."
"Ah, no, sir, this villain is wronged!"
Ruan Che kicked Liang Qi in the stomach, "It's unfair NMB! If you f*cking accuse me, no one will be innocent."
Liang Qi was kicked so hard that he screamed, "You, you dare to hit a scholar, ah!" It's okay if you don't say it. After saying that, Ruan Che rewarded him with two big mouths, which made his nose and mouth bleed. Liang Qi had never experienced such a blow. He was beaten severely and screamed in pain.
Yu Le came to the back of the courtroom, looked at the tied up Zhou Jincai and said, "How about it! Your accomplice refuses to admit the crime, so you have to bear it alone!"
"Ah! Sir, he, he lied! He, I, I told you everything, I told you everything!" Zhou Jincai didn't want to die, and he was also beating Xiao Jiujiu. His cousin was the governor, and this newly appointed minister was It should give him face, just leave everything to Liang Qi. Zhou Jin just started to tell the truth, and of course there was some moisture.
After Yu Le read Zhou Jincai's confession, he showed it to Liang Qi. Liang Qi yelled that Zhou Jincai was not a human being and framed himself, so out of revenge, Liang Qi also confessed. However, things are not that simple.
Yu Le took the confessions of the two people and started the house raiding mode. The family members of Zhou Jincai and Liang Qi were also imprisoned to wait for retribution. Yu Le got an account book, which contained the bribery accounts of some Shuzhou officials and some officials in the court. This was It was a hot potato. Yu Le felt deeply that he must have made a big mistake. Forget it, let’s calm the people down first!
"Sir, these two thieves' families are too rich, and the food is rotten and moldy. They are so damn evil, sir! Just kill them." Ruan Che was very excited.
"We don't need to kill them. Someone will come to kill them. Register their money. You know what to do!"
"Ah! How to do it? Didn't you say that everything you search is registered?"
Yu Le looked at Ruan Che angrily. This man is really straight! How did Zhang Zhen fall in love with such a "fool"!
Yu Le taught Ruan Che how to register the money gained from confiscating the house. Ruan Che looked at Yu Le doing the accounting with great admiration. You are so awesome. It is impossible not to make a fortune! Hehe, I and Zhang Zhen have had a good time this time, and the house can be changed to a third-party hospital! Haha...are all corrupt officials doing this? Isn't that adult also a corrupt official...
"Um, sir, did we take too much?" Ruan Che was still embarrassed. Yu Le looked at Ruan Che coldly and said, "You can return some."
"Ah! I, I'm thinking of changing Zhang Zhen's house, I, I won't quit, hehe!"
Ruan Che found a bodyguard agency and sent the two people's "dirty money" back to Lushan County.
"Sir Yu is really the great master of Qingtian! It's great to arrest officials and confiscate their homes!"
"Yes! He not only arrested the corrupt official Zhou Jincai, but also ransacked the Liang family. What a good official!"
"We can survive the disaster this time, hehe!"
...
The reason why Yu Le's reputation is getting higher and higher is that Yu Le distributed all the stolen food to the poor people and victims of the disaster, and there was also money. Yu Le did not intend to hand over these stolen properties to the state.
After Yu Le arranged for the victims, he proposed a work-for-relief plan, asking everyone to build ditches and canals, dredge rivers, and irrigate farmland. Because the victims have to work and earn money to support themselves. If they all lie down, no government can afford to support so many people.
Two days passed at a very fast pace. Yu Le had to rush to Jinling after explaining the matter, so he was very busy these two days.
"Sir, Shuzhou Governor Zhou Zuo has sent you an invitation." Ruan Che came to report.
"Logically, we should pay him a visit. After all, he is senior to me, but if you delay the emperor's order, you will be beheaded. The matter here is almost settled, and it is time for us to set off."
"Sir, what should we do with those two people?"
"Come with us, let Feng Qi bring two government servants with you."
"Yes, sir."
Feng Qi felt like she was extremely unlucky recently. She could be found in anything. Why was she so mean to approach this person in the first place? Going to the capital is not an easy job. You might get yourself killed. What a bad luck!
Yu Le and his party of seven took a boat to Jinling, stopping at several major "stations", including Kanghuajun (Chizhou), Xuanzhou Yi'an County (Tongling), and Wuhu County, and finally arrived at Jinling.
"Sir, Yu Le did not accept our invitation and left directly with Zhou Jincai and Liang Qi."
"Send someone to rob and kill us on the way. We must not let him take people to Aurous Hill, otherwise our heads will be at risk."
"Yes, sir. Will Yule stay?"
Zhou Zuo pondered for a while, "Oh! Don't make a big deal out of it. Let's kill those two people. Yu Le should also understand our intention. If he is not stupid, he will consider it. Also, send the letter to Jinling as soon as possible. Master Feng, tell him the truth."
"Yes, sir."
Yu Le was waiting for Zhou Zuo's next move on the boat. The plots in many TV and movies are like this. It is necessary to leave no one alive, but what he should do depends on whether Zhou Zuo kills him or not! Yu Le remembered the first name in the account book, named Feng Yansi.
"Sir, you are very considerate. Thank you for buying some food. Otherwise we would have been really hungry. The food on the ship would be really hard to swallow!"
"That's because you're not hungry. During the Battle of Guizhou, the pancake was as hard as a rock. Didn't you eat it too?"
"Hehe, that's right! People, when you have good things, you forget about bad things. Sir, will anyone really dare to assassinate you?"
"It's possible, or it's possible that they just came to kill those two people, but we'd better be careful. If we are taken along, we both have to protect ourselves. Our lives are much more valuable than these two people!"
"Hey, that's not true. We are heroes and have shed blood for our country." In Ruan Che's heart, the Tang Kingdom is still great and sacred in his heart.
