"Wei Shuyu, don't be so arrogant..."
"Do you know who my father-in-law is?"
Magistrate Liu covered his fingers and looked at Wei Shuyu with a gloomy expression.
"who is it?"
Wei Shuyu became interested.
"My father-in-law is Duke Xing!"
Duke?
Wei Shuyu frowned.
No wonder he could embezzle so much money as a mere county magistrate.
It turned out to be a deep background.
but……
"Who is Duke Xing?"
Wei Shuyu's sudden words confused everyone.
"Big pot, Duke Xing is Liu Zhenghui." Cui Shenji explained.
"oh?"
Wei Shuyu showed an expression of sudden realization: "That's it, I understand."
Liu Zhenghui.
Not only the hero of Taiyuan Yuanmou.
He is also one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion.
Needless to say, his contribution goes without saying...
But because the Duke was granted the title by Li Yuan, he belonged to Li Yuan's old tribe.
"Wei Shuyu, give me some face."
Magistrate Liu continued: "For the sake of my father-in-law, how about letting this matter go?"
"I will still give you the amount I promised you."
Wei Shuyu smiled and nodded.
"Not bad."
Wei Shuyu knelt down and held his other hand: "But you have relatives who are princes, and so do I..."
Click.
Along with Magistrate Liu's screams, five other fingers were also twisted off.
"My father is still Zheng Guogong."
hiss.
Liuxuchi's face was distorted with fear.
He's obviously just a little kid, why can he be so cruel?
"Xiao Shandao, tell him who your father is."
boom.
Qin Shandao kicked Magistrate Liu: "My father is Duke Yi."
boom.
Fang Yiai also kicked Magistrate Liu: "My father is Liang Guogong."
boom.
Cui Shenji stared: "My father is not the Duke of the country. Do you have any objection to me kicking you?"
Bang bang bang...
The three goods were beaten so violently that Magistrate Liu lost half of his life.
"Stop...stop fighting."
Magistrate Liu curled up.
"Recruit or not?"
Wei Shuyu stepped forward.
"Hit...Hit!" Magistrate Liu replied fearfully.
"So……"
Wei Shuyu looked at Ma Yu: "Where is the head of the Ma family?"
"Wei Wei Wei Wei...Mr. Wei."
Ma Yu's legs trembled.
Kneeling on the ground with a plop.
Wei Shuyu is terrifying.
Plus the background behind these people.
Who in the entire Tang Dynasty would dare to tease their tiger beards alone?
"Recruit yourself, or should I help?"
Wei Shuyu said with a smile, which looked as terrifying as a demon in Ma Yu's eyes.
"Hit, move, move...I'll move them all!"
"very good!"
Wei Shuyu waved his hand: "Take him to the court!"
County government hall.
Hundreds of laborers gathered around the door, and a steady stream of people came outside after hearing the news.
Wei Shuyu sat in the court hall.
Snapped.
The gavel shot: "Ascending to the hall."
Cui Shenji: "Power..."
Fang Yiai: "Wu..."
Well……
It's quite monotonous.
Shouting for power originated in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and was only performed by farmers on New Year's Day or some important festivals, including shouting for power.
During the Tang Dynasty, it had not yet spread to the court.
The performance... the two guys just think it's fun.
"Everyone, today I am dealing with the Guojiacun mine. If you have any grievances, you can come forward and file a complaint."
Snap.
The Guo boy immediately knelt on the ground.
"Please also ask Dr. Wei to make the decision. The Ma family in Yunyang occupied my Guojia village and killed my eldest uncle, third uncle, and village leader..."
Wei Shuyu tried them one by one.
The Ministry of Commerce leads the merchants, and Wei Shuyu has the right to make judgments on the Ma family.
Ma Yu, a capital crime.
The Ma family pays compensation and fines.
As for County Magistrate Liu, it was not within Wei Shuyu's scope of responsibilities.
He was asked to postpone the signature of the charges and throw them directly to Dali Temple.
The next few days...
Wei Shuyu visited several more mining villages, and the results were similar!
Merchants did not care about the lives of the people in order to mine.
It's like reaching an unspoken rule in the business world.
You earn yours, I earn mine.
There was a tacit understanding.
"Bastard thing!"
Wei Shuyu gritted his teeth.
He still underestimated the degree of profit-seeking of businessmen.
Marx was right...
If there is a 20% profit, capital will be ready to move; if there is a 50% profit, capital will take risks; if there is a 100% profit, capital will dare to risk hanging; if With 300% profit, capital dares to trample all rules and laws in the world!
"Mr. Wei!"
Just then, a soldier came on horseback.
"What's the matter?"
Wei Shuyu looked back.
"According to His Majesty's instructions, I order you to return to Chang'an as soon as possible."
Wei Shuyu's heart sank.
He knew that his secret visits these days had caused too much noise.
But when he saw those corrupt officials, he couldn't help it...
"Go back to Chang'an!"
Wei Shuyu spoke seriously.
To completely resolve this matter, we have to start at the root of the Ministry of Commerce.
royal palace.
Li Shimin was also very anxious.
Wei Shuyu's series of actions really confused him.
A large number of officials were imprisoned.
The censor's platform continued to impeach Wei Shuyu.
The court was also in trouble because of Wei Shuyu's incident.
"Xuancheng!"
Li Shimin's desk clattered: "What on earth does Shuyu want to do?"
"See for yourself..."
"There are several baskets of memorials to impeach him!"
Wei Zheng glanced aside.
There were five baskets of memorials, all of them impeaching Wei Shuyu.
As expected of my son.
the student surpasses the master.
I have never enjoyed this kind of treatment.
"Your Majesty, Shu Yu punishes corrupt officials."
Wei Zheng bowed and said, "I thought I did nothing wrong."
"fart!"
Li Shimin cursed angrily: "More than twenty officials have been sent to prison. If we let them continue to suffer, who will govern the Tang Dynasty?"
Um……
Wei Zheng pondered for a while.
It's just more than twenty, not more than two hundred, so it can be done easily.
"Promoting officials is the responsibility of the Ministry of Personnel."
Wei Zheng answered honestly: "Your Majesty must ask Gao Shilian for this matter."
Fuck you.
Am I talking about promotion?
"I'm telling you about Wei Shuyu!" Li Shimin shouted.
"Actually, I think it's good for Shu Yu to do this." Wei Zheng thought for a while and said.
"What do you mean?" Li Shimin asked.
"There are corrupt officials in every dynasty..."
Wei Zheng bowed and said: "We can handle a batch now just to scare the officials."
When Li Shimin heard this, his brows relaxed slightly.
But what Wei Zheng said next made Li Shimin furious again...
"Furthermore, His Majesty caused Tang Lv to suffer some damage because of Dang Renhong's incident."
"Now that Shu Yu has done this, Tang Lu's majesty has risen again."
Son of a bitch!
I have to thank Xiao Wei for co-authoring it, right?
Day by day, if you don't get angry with me, will you die or something?
"Stop talking nonsense to me."
Li Shimin mocked: "You should think about how to help Shuyu..."
"Tomorrow is the imperial meeting."
"Shu Yu offended so many officials."
"Even if I don't deal with these memorials, the court officials will attack Shuyu in the court hall."
Wei Zheng suddenly frowned.
The power of officials is complex.
Who doesn’t have a few backers?
Shu Yu killed more than twenty corrupt officials at once, which can be said to have stirred up a hornet's nest.
