"I will see you, Your Majesty!"
Seeing Liu Deng striding in, all the officials stood on both sides, each one cautiously, for fear that Liu Deng would notice them.
Seeing them all trembling like quails, a smile appeared on Liu Deng's lips.
"I know that what happened some time ago has made all of you feel unsure. I am here specifically to deal with this matter today!"
Anyway, at this time, even if he talks about breaking the news, these people have no intention of listening to Liu Deng and simply get to the point.
"Your Majesty, we are just following orders, please be aware of everything!"
Huang Wenjie gritted his teeth and took the lead in speaking towards Liu Deng.
"Who are you?"
Regardless of other things, this guy dared to stand up and make this matter clear at this time.
Liu Deng felt that this guy was still somewhat useful.
"My junior minister, Huang Wenjie, is the chief historian of the Prime Minister's Office!"
Huang Wenjie hurriedly reported his family name.
"In the past few months, you have done really well! I have no intention of pursuing you!"
According to what Ye Yijian sent, this guy did a pretty good job indeed.
Although it is said that Tao Qing single-handedly promoted him, as a long history, his work is still worthy of recognition.
Of course, judging from the things attached to the information, he and Tao Qing were indeed a bit close, but no matter what Tao Qing said, he was kind to him.
It is indeed just human nature for him to get closer to Tao Qing.
"Big, big king..."
Now it was Huang Wenjie's turn to be dumbfounded. He prepared a thousand excuses.
But I never expected that Liu Deng would suddenly say such a sentence.
Not only did he not intend to punish him, but he seemed to appreciate his work achievements.
"What? Do you think this king wants to blame you? You underestimate me!"
What Liu Deng lacked was a man of action, so naturally he would not get angry with them over such a trivial matter.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Huang Wenjie was really surprised. He never expected that this matter would just pass like this.
Judging from what Liu Deng said, it means that he can continue to stay in his current position.
This is really an unexpected surprise!
Not only Huang Wenjie, but also Feng Jiancheng was completely dumbfounded.
He had already made up his mind to abandon his fame and fortune, and then left his hometown to remain anonymous for the rest of his life.
But he didn't expect that happiness would come so quickly, and with such a small amount of effort, the things that he had always been worried about would be over.
"Not just him, most of you have good work performance, but occasionally there are still a few people who are ignorant of current affairs!"
When Liu Deng said this, he floated through the crowd with a half-smile, and everyone's ecstatic hearts suddenly became clenched again.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became cold again, and the surroundings were suddenly so quiet that one could hear a needle drop.
"I have something here, which records in detail what all of you here have done in recent times! Some of them are indeed following orders, but some are taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos!"
When Liu Deng said this, several people in the crowd could not help but feel weak in their legs.
Huang Wenjie couldn't help but look secretly in the direction of several colleagues.
Everyone is stirring the pot in the same pot, and no one knows who about certain things!
It's just that many times, it doesn't matter to you, just ignore it, turn a blind eye and pretend you didn't see it!
Unexpectedly, Liu Deng was so aware of everything they had done recently.
"What's going on? Are you going to stand up and admit it yourself, or am I going to find out your names one by one? You are all natives of Jinyang City and your fellow villagers. You are really capable of killing me!"
Liu Deng held the zhazi in his hand and patted it gently on the other hand.
The expression on his face has become serious. Although he also knows that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, but the evil done by these guys is really too serious!
Some people were involved in the grain trade. In order to accumulate more capital, they actually took risks and used their identities and rights to crazily exploit the merchants in the city.
Some people also took the opportunity to collude with their companions to embezzle public funds and use the embezzled money to lend money at usury.
Even in order to let others borrow money, he did not hesitate to use his power. In less than two months, he unexpectedly obtained 70,000 to 80,000 yuan!
How could Liu Deng let such evil people go?
But people are all lucky. Even now, I am already scared to death.
However, no one chose to come forward. Many people quietly looked at the notebook in Liu Deng's hand with the corner of their eyes, secretly calculating their own little plans...
"It seems that no one wants to stand up, so I will name you! However, I have spoken first. For those who stand up now, for the sake of your own explanation, I will deal with it lightly as appropriate. But if it is me who names you, , then we will all be dealt with strictly!"
With an enigmatic smile on his face, Liu Deng looked at the crowd again.
"..."
There was still silence among the crowd. It seemed that they were determined to fight to the end!
"In that case, you're welcome, then! The person I called on will step forward. Shunzi, it's almost time. You go outside to greet Mr. Zhidu. Let's do a spot check too." Do it now!"
At the mention of Zhidu, there were seven or eight people in the crowd. They couldn't stand anymore and sat down on the ground with a plop.
Zhidu was a famous cruel official in the Han Dynasty. If this fell into the hands of Zhidu, it would really be worse than death.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty, I am guilty! I was confused for a moment, I am confused for a moment, please forgive me, please forgive me!"
A middle-aged man in his forties knelt on the ground tremblingly and said tremblingly.
"Very good. Anyway, someone finally came forward. What's your name?"
Liu Deng's voice was not loud, but it was enough to shock people.
"Your Majesty, my name is Li Junjie..."
Li Junjie said with a trembling voice.
"Hu Cao of the Prime Minister's Office? Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a great skill. In less than two months, he made 45,362 kuan without even noticing by just relying on extortion. ! What a good skill, indeed a good skill!"
He just gave a name, and Liu Deng made it clear what he had committed, even the amount of money he had obtained.
At this time, the crowd was completely shocked. No one dared to question the accuracy of the notes in Liu Deng's hand.
"Your Majesty, have mercy on me, Your Majesty, please have mercy on me!"
Li Junjie was sweating all over his body. In just a short time, his clothes were completely soaked with cold sweat.
