Chapter 622: Preserve Media and Execute
"Gu Qingquan, the son of a prisoner, came to see the Imperial Envoy. Please forgive me for asking for permission!"
Liu Mingzhi sat down calmly and looked at the somewhat reserved Gu Qingquan and shook his head helplessly: "Young Master Gu, there is no need to be polite. This is your home. Why have I become the master instead? Please sit down!"
"Thank you, Sir, this is no longer Qingquan's home!"
Liu Mingzhi was stunned for a moment and then realized that Gu Zhiheng had to change his name after he was executed by the governor: "Young Master Gu, I am sorry for the change. No one can stop such a thing from happening. He is gone, but the living should cherish it!"
"Thank you for your comfort, sir. Qingquan and my mother's little sister have settled down in Yunlai Inn. Yunlai Inn was run by the previous little sister. I didn't expect that Yunlai Inn, which my father had always looked down upon before his death, would become my last resort. Shelter from the wind and rain!”
"Well, there are tens of millions of mansions, seven feet of sleep at night, be content with what you have. Although Governor Gu did not make a big mistake, he died in exchange for the truth of Qingzhou Prefecture coming to light. I will seek a posthumous title for him. !”
"Thank you, Sir, Qingquan has come to ask for something else!"
"Mr. Gu, it's okay to say so!"
Gu Qingquan's face turned rosy: "Qingquan wants to ask you to be a matchmaker!"
"Protect the media?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Gu Qingquan blankly. What the hell is this? Please ask me to be a matchmaker. I have to know how to do it! However, he did not refuse directly: "Which young lady does Mr. Gu have his eyes on? If it's mutual consent, of course I don't mind being a conscientious person. If it's Mr. Gu, I can't help you if you only have wishful thinking!"
Gu Qingquan lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Sir, you have seen this before!"
"Have you seen me before?" Liu Mingzhi thought for a moment and looked at Gu Qingquan suddenly: "But Miss Ning Shuang?"
"Exactly, to be honest with you, Qingquan and Ning Shuang are childhood sweethearts. My father and Mr. Ning are both officials in the same government after many twists and turns, so they are destined to be together. However, although my father has some friendship with Mr. Ning, he still looks down on Miss Ning Shuang. Therefore, That’s..."
"Is it because of Miss Ning's eye disease?"
"Exactly! But Qingquan doesn't mind. I hope you can find a matchmaker. Qingquan is willing to marry Ning Shuang in three years after my father's death!"
"If your Majesty and Lord Ning, Miss Ning Shuang, have no objections, I will naturally have no objections either!"
"Thank you sir, please wait a moment!"
Liu Mingzhi was stunned when he saw Gu Qingquan walking in with Ning Shuang supported, followed by Gongzhou Governor Ning Zihan!
"Prisoner Ning Zihan pays homage to your lord!"
"Gu Qingquan, the prisoner's son, pays homage to your lord!"
"Ning Shuang, the prisoner's daughter, pays homage to your lord!"
"Please get up. No need to be so polite. Everyone, please sit down!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Liu Mingzhi didn't know what was going on when he saw the three people coming together. Since it was a consensual relationship, it was just a matter of effort for the two fateful couples to come together, so why not do it.
Under the surprised looks of the three people, Liu Mingzhi stood up and studied the ink, and a couplet appeared on the paper with a wave of the brush.
"We have made a lifelong marriage alliance and wish the couple a long life."
"A match made in heaven!"
He took out his imperial seal, stamped it, and handed a pair of couplets to the two of them: "Ten years of cultivation have allowed us to cross the same boat, and a hundred years of cultivation have enabled us to sleep together on the same bed. You must get married!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Liu Mingzhi did not bother the newlyweds to talk to each other and signaled Ning Zihan to come with him, leaving plenty of space for the lovers.
"Prisoner Ning Zihan would like to thank the imperial envoy for protecting the matchmaker. Even if the court documents execute the prisoner, he can still rest in peace!"
"Serving as an official brings blessings to one party. You are eating the emperor's salary, but you don't think about sharing the emperor's worries. Fortunately, Gongzhou did not cause a big mistake this time. I will intercede for you and explain the reason to your majesty. As for how It’s up to Your Majesty to deal with it!”
"Thank you, Sir, for letting the prison officer see that my little girl finally belongs to someone. Even if I die, I will be satisfied!"
"During this period of time, you have to work more on the people's livelihood in Gongzhou. You must fulfill your responsibilities until you leave your post. Qingzhou Mansion is now full of waste, and I don't want to kill people like Ren Yuan, but not killing is not enough. The common people are angry, how can they explain to the 30,000 dead fathers and fellow villagers if we don’t kill them!”
"What your Excellency said is true, and the prison officer also understands it. The locust plague is more terrible than the human heart!"
"If you can understand this, it means you are not a mediocre person. Officials can have selfish motives but they must not do nothing. It is the most hateful thing to do nothing in their position and treat the people under their rule as nothing. Therefore, people are not saints. , It’s perfect. Being an official without virtue is not scary, but being an official without doing anything is scary!”
"Prisoner Ning Zihan, thank you for your teaching!"
Liu Mingzhi let out a long sigh and looked at the setting sun on the horizon: "Go back to Gongzhou. It's not too late to make up for it. Supervise the people's farming!"
"Prisoner Ning Zihan retires!"
Looking at Ning Zihan's back, Liu Mingzhi gently rubbed his forehead: "Really, others have to keep me busy. Are there any more failed time travelers than me? This is more and more contrary to what I want to live. !”
"Husband, what is a time traveler!"
"Ah?" Liu Mingzhi looked around in a hurry and found that he didn't know what was going on. Qinglian came in with a tea tray: "It's nothing. Just now, Governor Ning said something about time travellers. My husband was also curious about it, so he murmured a few words. .”
"Oh! Husband, can we go home? I want to catch the wind with Yiyi and Feifei. I don't know if they are doing well after being away for so long!"
"Come on, come on, we can go back after the people of Qingzhou Prefecture have planted food. It will take as little as three to five days, and as many as eight or nine days!"
"real!"
"Really, I'm sorry for you, you followed me on a long journey to get busy!"
"It's not bitter. It's not bitter at all to be able to follow my husband. I don't know how much happier I am than Lian'er wandering alone in the rivers and lakes!"
"It's good to be content, it's good to be content!"
On the school grounds of the Governor's Mansion, Liu Mingzhi looked solemnly at the crowds of people arriving one after another.
He slapped the gavel in his hand: "Take the prisoner!"
The prison car drove slowly with hundreds of officials from Qingzhou Prefecture, large and small, and all kinds of rotten leaves and rotten eggs were greeted along the way. Liu Mingzhi saw the excited people and did not stop him.
This was the punishment they should bear. It would have been good if the lives of 30,000 people were not punished on the spot.
"Corrupt officials, you deserve what you deserve!"
"You deserve it. If it weren't for your old woman's miserable child, he wouldn't have starved to death!"
"Kill them, kill them!"
"It is not a pity to die, corrupt officials, all corrupt officials!"
Liu Mingzhi watched as Long Wuwei escorted everyone to the execution platform and waved: "Serve the wine!"
Dozens of yamen servants held wine jars and coarse porcelain bowls and poured a bowl of guillotine wine for these people one by one. This was considered the last act of benevolence.
Liu Mingzhi held up the command arrow and sighed: "Drink the guillotine and become a good person in the next life!"
These officials also accepted their fate, quietly picked up the drinks in front of them and drank them all in one gulp. If they had to die, they should die bravely. Crying and crying is not a man's style!
Liu Mingzhi closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He threw the arrow in his hand and rolled it to the ground: "Execution!"
Blood splattered and dyed the execution platform above the school ground red, and the people stared wide-eyed and did not dare to make the slightest sound.
A total of ninety-three officials were involved in the Qingzhou treasury deficit case.
Kill them all!
My wife is the best in the world
