Last year alone, the number of unsolved cases caused by traffic accidents in the Ming Dynasty reached more than 200,000. Now that Emperor Haojing is back, he can catch all the relevant fish that have slipped through the net.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t catch them all with one net. You can use a few more nets and most of the fish will be caught. It doesn’t matter who the backer is. If there is a backer, catch them all together!
As long as he committed a crime of treason, a certain emperor would not even let his wife and children go. Those who had no blood relationship with him were even less likely to be easily forgiven.
"Your Majesty, Cao Min knows something and is willing to tell the truth. I hope your Majesty will show mercy!"
He Wei is the eldest son and grandson of the He family. Their old man also hopes that he will inherit the family's steel factory business, which is located in Benxi.
In addition to the government-run ironworks, there are also many fairly small ironworks there, which are responsible for forging some plates and components. Due to the large number, the benefits are also considerable.
The He family has been operating in Liaodong for more than fifty years. It is estimated that the total value of its property can reach tens of millions of silver coins. It can be regarded as one of the few rich people in the local area.
In order to pave the way for He Wei, the old man of the He family allowed He Wei to come to Beidu to make friends with the descendants of high officials, so that he could take care of his business in the future.
However, it is easy to learn bad things but hard to learn well. He Wei soon made friends with a group of second, third and even fourth generations. In addition, the entertainment industry in Beidu was extremely developed. He soon became addicted to it and could not extricate himself.
Traffic accidents are inevitable, especially since this is under the emperor's feet, not in Liaodong. Once an accident is committed, as long as the authorities strictly investigate, the parties involved will definitely leave a record.
He Wei just hit the muzzle of the gun. He didn't kill anyone while driving drunk, but he threw the singer who was sitting in the passenger seat out, and the other person was destroyed on the spot...
In fact, this matter had little to do with him. It was mainly caused by the woman not wearing a seat belt. But after all, it was a dead person, and judging from the surveillance video at the time of the incident, He Shi was definitely speeding while driving.
He Wei was very scared when he met the Holy Spirit today, because Emperor Haojing was a deity descended to earth, and if he said the wrong word, his head would move.
The reason is very simple. It is not up to him to decide whether to deceive the emperor or not. In the Ming Dynasty, "the crime of deceiving the emperor" was a serious crime second only to rebellion.
He lied in front of the emperor and was found out by the emperor. Even if he had a hundred heads, they would all be chopped off!
Why don't you want to stay in Dongchang Prison for even one more day, let alone lose your head?
If he was sentenced to three to five years, he would be in trouble.
He definitely wasn't beaten, you know the reason...
"Say it, I'm listening. Don't be pretentious. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense!"
"Cao Min dare not die! Cao Min heard before that some dandy boys played with a woman, and then the woman couldn't bear it anymore and died, so they buried her privately!"
"Write down when, where, and who told me, the names of all the dandy boys, the names of women or stage names, and where they worked during their lifetime."
"yes!"
"Can you understand the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
"Cao Min understands very well!"
"That's good! If the verification is correct, all the crimes you have committed before will be listed, no record will be kept, and there will be rewards. Otherwise..."
"Cao Min understands!"
He Wei had already figured it out. Even if it was just a matter of speculation, he had heard about it from the mouth of Fatty Liu, a local snake in Beidu.
If it were true, Fatty Liu would have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and he would also have to pay compensation for the reputational damage of those dandy boys.
He Wei might not be able to remember ordinary business dealings clearly, but he would not easily forget such romantic and thrilling things in his lifetime.
"Liu Jun!"
"Cao Min is here!"
"Let's first look at what a 'thank you letter' to you is!"
"……yes!"
Liu Jun was confused after hearing this. Why did he write a letter of thanks to himself, and why did it fall into the hands of the emperor?
When I took it over and looked at it, I was almost frightened to death. Where is this thank you letter? This is obviously a reminder of death!
"How about it? Should we think it over before we talk about it? Or make it up before we talk about it?"
"...Cao Min would never dare to deceive His Majesty!"
"Is this true?"
"..."
"Are you involved?"
"Your Majesty! Cao Min has absolutely no involvement in this matter!"
"So, does this really happen?"
"..."
"Not answering means acquiescence! If you are unwilling to report, you can turn into a tainted witness. On the contrary, you will cover up the people involved in the case, and the crime will be increased. After the suspect is arrested, he will be severely punished according to the relevant circumstances! Of course, you are not afraid of pain. Good, because you will be exposed! With your fat body, you might be able to be shaved five hundred times more than an ordinary suspect!"
There are elements of temptation and intimidation in the words of a certain emperor, but this guy is indeed full of flesh. From the perspective of scientific slicing, this is in line with the general situation of the target. The specific results will not be known until the knife is taken.
"...Cao Min is willing to report! He is willing to report! Cao Min will tell you everything he knows, and he will tell you everything!"
He was first beaten to death, and then his head was beheaded by the executioner. His death was extremely miserable.
Liu Jun didn't want to die miserably so soon, or he didn't want to die like this at all.
Emperor Haojing is a complete tyrant in the eyes of many people.
They wantonly slaughtered loyal and good people, deprived the common people of their lives, imposed exorbitant taxes, and committed crimes that are too numerous to describe...
However, there are probably only a few people whose knees are not weak when they are in front of a tyrant.
"Put pen to paper!"
Obviously Liu Jun knew more than He Wei in "Listening to Storytelling", especially since he remembered the place where the body was buried. As long as he could dig it out, it would be half the battle.
It doesn't matter if the remaining half fails, just find a few stubborn things to top the tank.
The prerequisite for unjustly accusing good people is that they must be good people. How many of those in prison are good people?
Liu Jun wrote down the names of four people. It was not that there were only four people involved in the case, but that he only knew these four people.
But it doesn't matter, just follow the list and be interrogated. Even if you are not in jail, you can still have factory guards visit you.
There are always people who are confronting Emperor Haojing overtly or covertly, thinking that when a certain emperor gets older, they will be able to wait for an opportunity to counterattack.
Violating the rules is just their test. The real purpose is to find an opportunity to kill a certain emperor.
It's either a physical hiccup or a weakening of power. It must be one of the two.
Then there's no need to be polite, Zhu Cixi. Before moving on a large scale, it's better to wipe out Beidu first!
Not only Dongchang and Jinyiwei, but also Beichang and Nanchang, a quasi-field force composed of women, also took action.
Temporary checkpoints have been set up on all roads in and out of Beidu to check passing people and vehicles.
"Report~! Your Majesty, the female body has been exhumed. According to the photos and fingerprints provided by the Forensic Medical Association, it is indeed the woman Liu Jun mentioned. Due to the long time, the owner of the club can no longer remember what happened on the night of the incident. However, None of the four people involved in the case could provide direct proof of their alibi. The suspect's fingerprints cannot be extracted from the victim for the time being, and the official is trying other methods."
"Does the victim have any relatives?"
"Your Majesty, this girl's family is in decline. Her parents are dead and she has only one younger brother. He is twenty years old. He has already joined the army and is currently serving under the command of the Western Region."
"Send a telegram and order his brother to return by train. After he arrives in Beidu, I will handle the case again!"
"I obey the decree!"
Zuo Du Yushi Zhong Qian is now working very hard on the case, because a certain emperor told him that after his death, he would go to see his ancestor Zhong Kui.
Senior industry insiders know exactly what Zhong Kui does.
If your surname is Zhong, if you still dare to do immoral things, you will be punished by your ancestors after your death!
Zhu Cixiang did not let the victim's brother fly back because he was worried that the plane would crash and the last blade of grass in their family would die, which would mean they were wiped out.
After repeated investigations and evidence collection, it was finally determined that the persons involved in the case were the four people Liu Jun confessed to, and the four companies behind them also gained something after intensive work.
Two are officials, suspected of corruption, and two are businessmen, suspected of tax evasion. They are also involved in the occupation of female servants, smuggling of goods, collusion between officials and businessmen, etc. In short, no one is a good person.
Wu Xiaolang, the younger brother of the victim Wu Xiaoyue, had served in the army for three years. He understood the relevant rules, but he did not react too strongly. He only hoped that Emperor Haojing could clear the wrong for his sister and bring the perpetrators to justice.
The direct evidence in this case, such as witness, has not been found, the footprints around the burial site have long been washed away by rain, and the physical evidence is also indirect, such as shovels and gloves.
But even if they refuse to give in and are beaten, the factory guards can still find ways to make the suspects confess. For example, in the middle of the night, half of the victim's body is dropped from the sky. In the middle of the night, he feels a hand on his shoulder, and when he turns around, he sees a rotten human face...
When it comes to being imprisoned and there are evil spirits appearing, few dandies can resist this level of stimulation.
Factory guards have already calculated that suspects with heart disease may be frightened to death by this trick, with a probability of more than 10%.
Prison is a "good place" for physical torture and mental breakdown. Everyone who has been here knows that it works every time!
After the case was closed, the four principal criminals were revealed, and all four families were assigned to mine, and their property was used to compensate many victims.
Wu Xiaolang received 80,000 silver coins in compensation, and also received one young woman from each of the four families as his permanent female slave.
He Wei and Liu Jun were cleared of criminal records due to meritorious service in the report, while the latter was fined a symbolic fine of one hundred silver coins.
Even so, the two of them were extremely grateful to Emperor Haojing, and finally came back with their lives at the door of death.
After the operation, as many as a thousand criminals were executed in Beidu alone.
Nearly 300 households with about 20,000 people were distributed, and more than 1,000 households were punished.
If the scope is expanded to the Kifu area, this number will be multiplied by three.
Outsiders don’t know that Emperor Haojing has action targets for factory guards in every place!
There are regulations on how many people should be arrested and how many people should be killed.
If the quantity is less than the prescribed amount, or if you kill good people and take merit, then wait to be dealt with!
It is estimated that more than 20,000 prisoners were executed in the Ming Dynasty, more than one million people were distributed, the related fines exceeded 100 million silver coins, and about one billion silver coins were confiscated.
According to relevant regulations, slave miners can be released after serving five to twenty years in the mines, depending on the sentencing results.
I feel like I have no hope for twenty years and I can commit suicide right where I am...
The remaining sentence will fall directly on his descendants. This move is called "The Foolish Old Man Moves Mountains"!
It would be better if the whole family committed suicide. It would be a pity to die without one family being a scourge in the world!
The management of the mine is not very strict. When the slave miners have completed all their quotas, they will be released.
It is not impossible to make a living in the mine all the time, but the mine only provides the minimum living security, and the salary is very different from that of free miners.
Regarding Emperor Haojing's killing spree, maybe some people dared to talk about it in private before, but later they didn't even dare to whisper it, for fear of being reported by a villain and causing disaster to the whole family.
What's more, most of the suspects that Emperor Haojing ordered the factory guards to arrest had a bad reputation, and everyone knew what they were doing in private.
Ordinary people were applauding, hoping that it would be best to catch them all at once. It has been a long time since I saw such a heart-warming action. These scum should be cleared away as soon as possible.
As for the descendants of those heroes, some want to use the head of the family as a shield.
When the family heads returned to their homeland from overseas and saw their virtue, they gave up completely.
Emperor Haojing told them long ago that neither I nor the court would treat them badly if they shed blood and sweat for the Ming Dynasty today.
But they cannot take credit and be arrogant, let alone use their past achievements as a reason or excuse to deceive the emperor and rebel in the future!
Kill the enemy for me today, rebel and kill the king tomorrow!
Who dares to use this kind of person? Who dares to stay?
The number of military generals returning to Beidu from other places shall not exceed fifty.
In the houses of Beidu, servants such as servants and retainers are not allowed to be kept without permission. The number of servants is clearly defined according to their grade.
The most important thing is that there are no more troops stationed in Beidu City, and they completely rely on factory guards to maintain local security.
Beichang itself is a field force and is equipped with tanks and other heavy weapons, which can play a role in suppressing rebellion.
Judging from the current situation, this deployment is still effective, and the rebels lurking in Beidu have never succeeded.
In addition, the factory guards also developed a large number of informants in Beidu, that is, semi-professional spies in the surrounding areas.
They all have serious careers, such as businessmen, teachers, journalists, doctors, lawyers, waiters, etc., but they will also report the news when they have it.
First, you can get a bonus to subsidize your family. Secondly, as the factory guard's spy, you can find a backer, which is a great thing for ordinary people.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to cleanse the northern capital and even the mainland, a certain emperor wanted to see who else dared to be dissatisfied with him.
Anyone who jumps out to seek death will be counted as one, and we will arrest them all.
Let's live a good life and play opposite to a certain emperor.
There’s nothing to say, either die or go mining!
If neither of them are willing to accept it, a certain emperor can ask the air force to airdrop him to the North Pole to see who is more powerful, him or the polar bear!
The polar bear must have been extremely happy to see this, as the takeaway was delivered to his mouth...
Cruel?
No!
This is a great way to protect polar bears!
A certain emperor never considers the feeling of "free takeaway" because they don't deserve to be human!
Since you want to commit suicide, you must be prepared to be a "free takeaway", otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life.
How long you can live depends entirely on luck. If the polar bear wasn't hungry at the time, wouldn't it be possible to come back alive?
The good news is that polar bears can smell "takeaway" from ten kilometers away...
