Within two days, Fang Zhengyi quickly arranged some follow-up matters.
And in the past two days, the news that the prefect Liu Xun was about to be interrogated and beheaded was announced to the people in the city.
At this moment, most of the people in the city had gathered outside the city.
Upstairs at the city gate, Liu Xun and Tongzhi were shackled and pressed against the crenel with their hair disheveled.
Fang Zhengyi wanted to let Xie Xian pass the official job, but Xie Xian politely refused.
I am satisfied to be able to wear official uniform once.
After all, living in Taoyuan County is much more relaxed and enjoyable than being an official.
In order to avoid being recognized by others, Fang Zhengyi deliberately made his face a little dirty and changed into a pair of pants full of patches.
At this time, he was holding Shang Fang's sword, one foot on the crenel, and looking down.
In the distance, Nie Zheng was observing the situation here with a sullen face.
He didn't expect that Fang Zheng would make the matter so big and call almost everyone in the city over!
Nowadays, it is very easy for accidents to happen when so many people gather together. He was afraid that something would go wrong, so he once again brought a large number of officers and soldiers to defend him.
Tongzhi next to Fangzheng's kick screamed crazily: "You can't kill me! You can't kill me!!"
"Fang Zhengyi! You can't kill me without a judicial review!"
Fang Zheng took out the sword, then took out a piece of cloth from his arms and wiped the sword's edge.
I haven't killed anyone in many years, so I feel a little nervous.
Not counting the penicillin experiment in the dungeon last time, he had always treated it as a medical accident, so there was no psychological burden at all.
Moreover, those death row prisoners were not simply beheaded to death, but also suffered various tortures before death.
Death in his hands is considered a pleasure and a gain.
The first time he committed murder was in Hengjiang Mansion, where a local official beat to death several of his young beggars for no reason.
He was so angry that he drew his sword and killed the man regardless of the consequences.
From then on, Zhang Biao would do everything for him, and he would never do it himself.
Hearing Tongzhi's cry, Fang Zheng said solemnly: "There is no need to shout anymore. I still have Fang's sword in my hand. Why do I need a trial to kill you?"
"Uh! Uh! Uh-huh!" Liu Xun started to scream when he heard Fang Zheng speak.
My heart roared crazily, the sword is fake! The sword is fake!
Fang Zhengyi ignored the two of them and continued: "The disaster situation is serious now, and I have no time to delay. I will publicly kill you two today to tell the world. One is to deter other officials, and the other is to stabilize the local people."
After that, he looked down at the city.
At this time, the city was crowded with people, and countless faces looked towards the city head with expectation.
Beheading a magistrate in public is a rare thing that would happen in a lifetime. Regardless of whether he is a good or bad person, he has never been heard of.
Who wouldn’t want to join in the fun?
Fang Zheng lifted up the hem of his official uniform and tucked it around his waist, revealing his patched trousers.
Liu Xun looked sideways, and his eyes suddenly widened.
This damn Fang Zhengyi! Wear the same pants as me! Even the locations of the fucking patches are sewn the same!
Then Fang Zhengyi said loudly: "Dear elders and sisters! I, Jianjiang Tongjian Fang Zhengyi! With the emperor's orders, I am here to provide disaster relief!"
"These two are the magistrates of Jianjiang, and they know each other! Do you know what crime they committed?"
"The price of food in Jianjiang remains high! The victims outside the city are drinking porridge that is as clear as water and complaining incessantly! The bones in the fields and the people's resentment are boiling are all the fault of these two thieves!"
"Your Majesty is the emperor of the ages! My emperor has a benevolent heart and is very considerate of the people."
"So! Local granaries are specially ordered to open for disaster relief and stabilize prices! People and officials as far away as the capital are working hard to raise food for the victims!"
"But these two people actually manipulated the grain stored in the granary, bought and resold it, and exchanged moldy rice for new rice. The amount was jaw-dropping!"
"Tens of thousands of stones of food were originally intended to be supplied to the people of Jianjiang, but only two of them were fattened!!"
"Now you are living in dire straits, without enough food and clothing, and you may even starve to death outside the city! But these two are at home with beautiful wives and concubines, well clothed and well-fed!"
"Tell me, should he die?!"
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
"Kill him! Kill him!!"
The people below were in a state of excitement, and the sound was like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.
These people may not understand anything, but the high price of food makes everyone hate it!
I already hate these traitors who want their lives to my core!
Liu Xun and Tongzhi did not dare to speak in the face of the overwhelming momentum, and their heads hung with pale faces.
He stared blankly at the city wall bricks in front of him...
Then Fang Zheng gathered his emotions for a while, looked up at the sky, and when he lowered his head, his eyes were full of sadness.
He said sadly to the people below: "Fathers and sisters, I... am late!!"
Nie Zheng could vaguely hear Fang Zhengyi's voice in the distance, and his face became grimacing.
I muttered in my heart.
Here we go, he’s making lies again to confuse the public!
"I, Fang Zhengyi, am the judge for Jianjiang, and the people have no food in their hands. I cannot absolve myself of the blame!"
"These unscrupulous and corrupt officials actually let the people who have no food to eat drink gruel like water outside the city, and they also imposed new taxes and exorbitant taxes!"
"You are already living in poverty, and they are just adding salt to the wounds of your parents and sisters!!"
"Worse than an animal! Worse than an animal!"
"These sinners of our Founder generation, please forgive me, my fathers and sisters!"
Then he picked up Shang Fang's sword and cut off a lock of his hair.
The people around him were all shocked and moved.
This is a good official who truly makes decisions for the people! Today I finally saw the blue sky again!
"Fang Qingtian!! This is Master Qingtian!!" Someone shouted.
Many people started shouting, and the sound of shouting to the sky was heard everywhere.
Fang Zhengyi looked down doubtfully.
Huh! its not right? I didn’t arrange childcare today?
After listening to this, Liu Xun almost shed tears of blood.
The whole person struggled desperately, and the wooden shackles clanged when they were hit.
Fortunately, there was a government official behind him who was holding him down.
Founder! ! You fucking learn how to speak like me! You must die a good death! !
Seeing that the scene was getting heated, Fang Zheng struck while the iron was hot and said angrily: "These two thieves have no laws! They have no regard for the people! They are shameless! Their crimes are heinous!"
"Since you are so hard-hearted towards the people, don't blame me...this officer! You are also hard-hearted!"
Liu Xun kept making hoarse sounds from his mouth.
"Box! Box! Box!!"
Still learning...still learning! ! I hate it!
As soon as Fang Zheng finished speaking, he raised Shang Fang's sword high, closed his eyes and slashed the sword towards Liu Xun's neck without hesitation!
A "pong" sound was heard, and the whole place fell into silence...
