Early the next morning, the government posted a notice at the city gate and also sold Datang Daily.
But in a remote place like Qinzhou, there were very few people who were literate. Cui Shanwei, the governor, mobilized all officials and local nobles and began to spread propaganda throughout Qinzhou City.
His Royal Highness, King Shu of the Tang Dynasty, came to Qinzhou.
The first one captured the corrupt chief minister Li Zhong, the second one captured the gangsters who oppressed the people in Qinzhou City, wiped out the criminal gangs, and even killed a group of lawless bandits outside the city.
Today, Li Zhong will be interrogated in person in this state government office, and the people will come to watch.
Finally, I added that if you don’t come to watch, you will do so at your own risk.
At first, the people were very panicked and wanted to hide at home. However, they said they would bear the consequences if they didn't come to watch, so they could only send one person from each family to watch.
At noon, the people in Qinzhou City came to the state government office to watch the interrogation scene as if they were mourning their heirs.
Li Ke deliberately walked from a distance, followed by officials from Qinzhou City.
"Good morning, fellow citizens, I am the living king of hell in your mouth."
"This visit to Longxi was personally sent by His Majesty. It is to eliminate the corrupt officials and local tyrants in Longxi, and to give the people a bright and bright future."
The crowd watching from a distance suddenly became commotion, and then started whispering to each other. M.biQuge.biZ
"Is this His Highness the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty? He looks gentle and elegant, and he is still a young man!"
"Yes, why are the rumors describing the King of Shu as a great demon king who does all evil, who is nine feet tall and can kill a cow with one punch? Is he still a human being?"
"There must be someone slandering me. The King of Shu came to Longxi this time under His Majesty's order to kill corrupt officials, eliminate the bullies in Longxi, and bring peace to the people..."
"Why is this brother so unfamiliar?"
"Hey, you must have met each other. My family is in business. I just came from Chang'an and passed through Qinzhou. I will stay for one night and then leave."
"You don't know that the King of Shu is the god in the hearts of the people in Chang'an City, and he can't stand the suffering of the people. At the beginning of this year, many people fled to Chang'an City. Chang'an City officials ignored them and even wanted to expel them..."
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu immediately entered the palace and told His Majesty that the victims should be properly resettled. After His Majesty learned about it, he investigated a large number of officials who did not do anything and ordered the King of Shu to resettle the victims."
"I heard that His Highness has not slept for three days and three nights, and his hair has turned half gray from worry. He just wants to let the victims live a good life."
"Later, I finally figured out a way. His Highness took out his wedding gift and established a post office. Let these victims work in the post office. They can earn hundreds of coins every day..."
"Also, there were ruffians in Chang'an City who oppressed the people. One day, His Highness the King of Shu discovered them. He and his men arrested all these ruffians overnight, and also spit out all the money they had blackmailed the people and returned it to the people. We..."
"Your Highness, it's so painful. You love the people so much, yet you are so blackmailed. Yesterday I entered
Qinzhou City heard the rumors about His Highness Black, and their hearts were cut like a knife..."
"I thought that our people in Qinzhou were simple and honest, and that everyone would repay their kindness, but I didn't expect that... His Highness is here to help us..."
"There must be someone who is specifically trying to blackmail His Highness. We don't want Your Highness to help us. They must be those who usually bully us..."
Just such a voice, whispering in the crowd, made the people stunned for a while. Then they looked at His Highness the King of Shu, who was so kind and approachable that he actually greeted them. They had never seen such a people-friendly prince.
Even the officials of Qinzhou would not look at him when they walked on the road, and they would be protected by a group of henchmen around them.
"We were deceived. Let me just say, how could the prince be cannibalistic and also like other people's wives? I don't like this."
Li Ke walked into the lobby, sat in the hall, patted the gavel, and asked: "Li Zhong, do you know your guilt?"
Li Zhong's face was swollen into a pig's head. He must have been beaten again last night. He was talking excitedly, but his speech was unclear. Two government servants came forward and helped Li Zhong press his fingerprints.
Then, Cui Shanwei, the governor, read out the story of Li Zhong's family's evil deeds in Qinzhou City, and how they found 3,000 taels of gold, 800 pieces of cloth, and 5,000 pieces of copper coins from Li Zhong's mansion.
In addition, Li Zhong has eight villages outside Qinzhou City, employing 851 farmers and 10,000 acres of fertile land.
Li Zhong even spent 3,000 yuan to buy a courtyard in Chang'an City.
All these figures are more than Li Zhong's income from not eating or drinking in these years.
Even Cui Shanwei was shocked when he read this crime!
They are idiots. We have been working together for a year, but they didn't realize that this guy is so greedy. It's no wonder that he has to be taken into consideration. It turns out that this guy has money in his hands and there is someone behind him.
As a governor, the money he has accumulated over the years is not as good as a house he bought casually.
The salary of officials in the Tang Dynasty generally consisted of copper coins, rice, manpower, job fields, monthly miscellaneous payments, and conventional physical items.
In fact, the monthly payment, even for the governor, is only about six thousand dollars, but he gets four hundred shilumi every year, and there is also a job field, especially when the court gives him dozens of handymen for him to drive. No need to spend money.
In addition, food, clothing, and toiletries on weekdays are all covered by the imperial court.
In his opinion, there is no use for the money after greed, and he is afraid to keep it at home.
Then there was Li Zhong's son, who bullied others, robbed other people's property, and killed people. He had five lives in his hands, all of which were other people's daughters. He was directly sentenced to death by Li Ke and chopped in half!
This execution caused the people to start cheering.
Finally, the King of Shu will behead those local gangsters, gangsters and underground forces who specialize in harming the people last night. Those who have lives in their hands will be beheaded directly, and those who have no lives in their hands will be sent to the army.
This caused the people to shout, "Thousands of years live the king of Shu."
As for the seized materials and money, Li Ke decided to take them from the people and use them for the people. These money were the people's fat and the people's anointing plundered by these people. Naturally, they should be given back to the people and benefit the people.
"Master Cui, during this house raid, we got a total of 5,000 taels of gold, 40,000 guan of copper coins, and 120 hectares of farmland. This land will be used as official land and can be distributed to the refugees who have no land to farm. As for the money, it will be given to is you."
"In my own name, I will donate another 50,000 yuan from you to build water conservancy projects, reclaim wasteland, build bridges and pave roads, and benefit the people of Qinzhou City."
Cui Shanwei didn't expect that the King of Shu would do this. He was immediately impressed and bowed and said: "I thank His Highness the King of Shu on behalf of the people of Qinzhou."
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will never let a penny go to waste and use all of it to benefit the people."
Li Ke took the people, prepared dry food and water, left through the back door, walked out of the west gate, and walked away.
When the people learned of King Shu's decision, they all bowed and saluted in the direction where King Shu left.
This is the Living King of Hell. He is just the living King of Hell for those who corrupt officials and oppress the people. However, he is the living savior of the people and a great good man.
From then on, King Shu had another nickname: Great Good Man.
Cui Qimu was dumbfounded when he learned what the King of Shu had done today and where the businessmen from the capital had gotten the news.
She followed her maid to the city gate and apologized to the King of Shu. This was what his mother said. She was too rude last night. Although the King of Shu was generous, apologizing was a human thing.
"Daughter, you missed a good marriage."
Cui Qimu: "..."
She recalled the gentle prince riding a sweaty horse at the gate of the city, and she couldn't help but regret in her heart. The best husband in history came to her door, but she ruined it with her own hands.
Cui Shanwei smiled bitterly. He grew up in an aristocratic family, and his elders instilled in him the idea that the royal family and the aristocratic family were in opposition. When he grew up and became an official, his first priority was to consider his family, followed by the court and the people.
Before he was an official in Shandong, the King of Shu had no influence at all. He didn't pay much attention to it at all. Everyone's attention was on the prince Li Chengqian.
When everyone paid attention to the King of Shu, all that was spread was the negative influence of the King of Shu. After all, this person was very unfriendly to the family.
In addition, the King of Shu's trip to Xingyang directly destroyed the Zheng family in Xingyang, making everyone frightened by the power of the King of Shu.
But I met the prince today. Putting aside family interests, this prince is a good prince who serves the country and the people.
After Cui Shanwei pondered for a long time, he finally learned about the painstaking effort in writing the letter from home.
Although he is a distant branch, he still has an identity. When he was a child, he was adopted as a son by Cui Zhen, the eldest son of the master.
It's just that Cui Xun became a Taoist priest and traveled around the world. I don't know if he is alive now.
Cui Zhen is the brother of Cui Ming, the current head of the family. Perhaps Cui Ming was reluctant to let go of his granddaughter, and other people's daughters had no status, so it was his daughter's turn.
In name, he is also the descendant of the eldest son of the Cui family in Qinghe.
At dusk, I took my daughter back to the official residence, but the official residence was in a mess. The servants of the family were beaten, and the ones who beat them were a group of Taoist priests.
"You evildoer, do you still have the nerve to live?"
"Why is your daughter so talented that she can't marry our little Taoist master?"
A crazy old Taoist priest rushed towards Cui Shanwei and slapped him all over the face.
Cui Shanwei was stunned. Even if he wanted to resist, he was no match for this madman.
