Xiao Chen found Wei Zhongxian and ordered:
"Arrange those secret messages together with the things we collected earlier."
"Go directly to the notice board at the city gate and tell the public about this matter!"
"It's time to let everyone know what kind of face this dog official named Jiang is!"
Wei Zhongxian said "Hey" and hurried down to do something.
The news was spread by the surrounding people.
The people in the city were all excited and hurried to the notice board at the city gate to wait.
Wei Zhongxian arrived late with his troops.
The surrounding people automatically separated into a lane.
Wei Zhongxian posted the red paper full of incriminating evidence on the notice board again.
And read loudly:
"Jiangdong Daotai Jiang Rongfeng was arbitrary, tyrannical and corrupt. During his tenure as an official, he bought and sold official positions..."
The sins were exposed.
Fire also flashed in the eyes of the people.
But to be honest, these things are still relatively far away for them...
After all, they are just ordinary people, and buying and selling officials has nothing to do with them.
But when Wei Zhongxian talked about specific cases:
"In the autumn of the year before last, Chen, the wife of cloth merchant Chen Wenjie, and her maid went to the street to buy goods. They met Jiang Rongfeng by chance. Seeing his beauty, Jiang Rongfeng sent his men to rob Chen at night. Chen was so fierce that he grabbed a pillar with his head and died on the spot..."
When a middle-aged man with unshaven beard heard this, he burst into tears.
He knelt on the ground, sobbing and said: "Lian'er, did you see... that dog official has been punished? You are not unjust, and you have not had an affair with anyone..."
The people around him had pity in their eyes.
Wei Zhongxian's voice continued:
"Last March, the crop fields in Dayang Village under Jiangdong Prefecture were trampled and damaged by wild boar herds, resulting in a poor autumn harvest. The head of Dayang Village led the people to request an extension of grain payment... The county official was kind and informed Jiang Rongfeng of the matter. Jiang Rongfeng was furious. Send your subordinates to Dayang Village, kill the village chief and several clan elders on the spot, and confiscate the home of the leader!"
At this time, several young men and women wearing servant clothes next to them cried.
They are the children of the families whose homes were confiscated in Dayang Village. If it weren't for Jiang Rongfeng, they wouldn't have been sold into slavery...
One pile, one piece.
Some have been experienced by people at the scene, and some have not happened to ordinary people, but they have also heard of them...
"Last year, the dragon in Jiangdong Prefecture's capital turned upside down. The court heard about it and distributed one hundred thousand taels of disaster relief money..."
"Jiang Rongfeng swallowed 80,000 taels, and his men swallowed 20,000 taels, and the relief work was divided among the local aristocratic families!"
"The real money used for disaster relief is only two thousand taels of silver!"
After this matter was spoken out.
The people at the scene were completely excited.
This also really pissed them off!
Last year's earth dragon turned over, nearly half of the victims were affected, and 20% of the people were killed or injured...
They always thought that the court did not give much relief money...
Unexpectedly, there were one hundred thousand taels, and all of them were stolen by that damn dog official and his men!
If the one hundred thousand taels of silver were put into effect, many people would not die!
I don’t know who spoke first:
"Dog officer!"
"Gou Guan, go to hell!"
"My son was only five years old at that time. If someone could save him, he would not die..."
"Death to the dog officer!"
"..."
The scene was full of excitement.
Many people even spontaneously ran to the courtyard where Xiao Chen was staying and communicated with the guards that they wanted to report Jiang Rongfeng.
Now, the witnesses are complete.
Xiao Chen also spent half a day collecting all the evidence and was ready to hit the road.
That night.
Xiao Chen was chatting with Concubine Shu.
Xiang Yichun knocked on the door and came over to report: "Master Governor, Jiang Rongfeng is awake! He is clamoring to see you."
Xiao Chen chuckled: "That's okay, then I'll go and see if he has anything else to say!"
Xiang Yichun brought Xiao Chen to the woodshed. Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment: "Why are you bringing me the woodshed?"
He also took a look and saw that there were several guards at the door of the woodshed, and asked again: "You shouldn't have locked Jiang Rongfeng in the woodshed, right?"
Xiang Yichun laughed: "Jiang Rongfeng, that bitch, spoke rudely to you and tried to discredit you. Not locking him up in the doghouse is enough to give him face!"
Xiao Chen laughed for a moment and walked in again.
Jiang Rongfeng was tied up and lying on the ground with a sluggish face.
After seeing Xiao Chen, his eyes became lively, but because his mouth was blocked, he couldn't scream.
Xiao Chen walked over slowly, looked at Jiang Rongfeng through the moonlight coming from the window, and said with a smile:
"Master Jiang, there is good news and bad news!"
Xiang Yichun quickly went over and pulled the cloth out of Jiang Rongfeng's mouth.
Jiang Rongfeng was calm, gritted his teeth and asked: "What the hell are you doing? How dare you arrest me and let me go!"
Xiao Chen chuckled: "Are you hearing good news or bad news?"
Jiang Rongfeng frowned and angrily said, "Just say what you say, and stop making fun of me!"
Xiao Chen said "Hey" and said:
"Master Jiang is really boring!"
"Then I won't be secretive."
"The good news is, I'm leaving soon!"
"The bad news is that I have also collected evidence of your corruption!"
When Jiang Rongfeng heard this, he almost fainted.
It's really satisfying to see the dog officer being defeated.
Xiao Chen gave him a few more cuts:
"There's more!"
"Those aristocratic families even made it clear how many outhouses you had and how many sons you gave birth to!"
"Tsk, tsk, you, I'm afraid you're going to get cold!"
"you!"
Jiang Rongfeng didn't take a breath and spit out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes were full of anger, and he said tremblingly: "I tell you, Xiao Chen, my mentor will not let you go."
"Don't stop trying to pull the tiger's skin out for me."
Xiao Chen sneered and said to Xiang Yichun: "When we get on the road, entertain him well, but don't let him live a comfortable life."
When collecting evidence today, Xiao Chen knew how inhumane this bitch was and hated him deeply.
And Xiao Chen also understood why the ancients had a saying: "Three years to clear the prefecture, one hundred thousand snowflakes and silver."
Jiang Rongfeng has been a Taoist priest for three years. Isn't he just greedy for a hundred thousand snowflakes of silver?
The next day, Xiao Chen temporarily handed over Jiangdong Road to a more benevolent county magistrate, collected the evidence, and set out on the road with Jiang Rongfeng and the money confiscated from his house.
At the same time, the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"What did you say?"
When Zhou Tianfu heard the news reported by Qian Jilai, his face was distorted: "Jiang Rongfeng was arrested?"
Qian Jilai said with a serious tone: "Yes, it is said that Xiao Chen has collected evidence and rushed to the capital!"
Zhou Tianfu sat down on the chair with a gloomy expression on his face. After a long time, he said in a deep voice:
"Let the killer take action immediately! We must kill Xiao Chen and Jiang Rongfeng before they leave Jiangdong!"
A large part of the money Jiang Rongfeng made went into his pocket...
And Xiao Chen is also a serious concern of his.
These two people cannot be kept!
Killing them in Jiangdong territory can also put the responsibility on the family.
