Extraordinary means?
Ru Yu shook her head slightly and said worriedly: "Good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. I'm afraid that the news about the forced relocation of people by the Xinzhou prefecture has been spread. In less than ten days, the entire Shanxi people will hear about it. How many pictures do you think the government will post? Can you regain the trust of the people with just a few explanations?"
On his way to Shanxi, Yang Pu read some classics and documents and understood that the people of Shanxi's trust in the court was fragile. When it comes to immigration policy, the term "trust is fragile" can no longer be used, but should be "not at all". No trust”.
The Hongdong immigration method of bullying the people has completely hurt the hearts of the Shanxi people.
That tragic migration also left everyone with lingering fears.
They were afraid of another "Hongdong immigration" from the imperial court.
At the beginning of this year's immigration policy, although government offices across Shanxi posted notices not to move guard stations or government officials, they emphasized that relocation was not forced, which calmed the uneasy public sentiment.
But this kind of comfort is only superficial comfort for restlessness, fear, and panic.
And in the depths of these uneasiness, there are restless dry firewood. As long as there is a spark, they may burst into flames.
Now that it's all right, the magistrate of Xinzhou held a torch and lit the pile of dry firewood.
People in Xinzhou are already panicked, but what about other places?
If there is a wave of refugees before immigration has begun, not only will the target of 500,000 immigrants fail to be achieved, but even Shanxi may become a mess. If we want to calm down, life will be ruined and people will suffer.
However, is there really no way to solve this problem?
Yang Pu was silent for a long time, then stood up and said, "Master Ru, if you do one thing, maybe you can save everything."
Ru Rui looked at Yang Pu curiously and said, "If you can really solve the current problem and appease the people of Shanxi, then I, Ru Rui, will recognize your talent as Yang Pu."
Yang Pu knew the weight of Ru Yu's words.
Ru Rui was trying to win over herself and put herself on the same front as him.
No, it’s not to win over, but to cultivate!
He is cultivating his own political power.
Yang Pu knew that the opportunity was rare. Ru Yu had been the Minister of the Ministry of War for a long time and was now a cabinet minister. He could be said to be a close minister of the emperor and a pillar of the imperial court. If he stood with him, he would have someone to protect him when encountering wind and rain in the future.
You can't live alone in the imperial court for long. Everyone needs communication, "friends" and "comrades".
A single palm cannot sing, a single tree cannot support itself!
Yang Pu looked at Ru Yu's meaningful eyes, walked out and bowed, "That kid is showing off his ugliness."
Make a bow and return the courtesy.
Show your shame and I can be your friend.
Ru Yu nodded happily. Nowadays, it is becoming more and more difficult to get involved in government affairs. Undercurrents are surging. Xie Jin, Yang Shiqi, Yao Guangxiao and others have become very close. Especially after this year's imperial examination, the relationship between the three has obviously improved.
Yu Xin and Huang Zicheng are also recruiting new forces. Fortunately, they have Yang Rong in their hands, and now they can accept Yang Pu. As long as these two survive for a few years, they will definitely be able to establish themselves in the court.
Even if I am not an official in the court that day, I will not be tricked into settling old scores.
"Say it."
Rujun is full of expectations.
Yang Pu whispered his plan. Ru Rui was startled at first, then thoughtful, then hesitant. In the end, Fang nodded heavily.
Two days later in the early morning, the Huang family carried the coffin northward and out of Xinzhou City, intending to lay the old man in Huangdian's grave.
Because Mr. Huangdian was quite kind-hearted during his lifetime, he spent a lot of money to help the poor people and build bridges and roads. He was considered a kind person. Therefore, there were many people attending the funeral, and some people who had nothing to do to join in the fun actually pulled the procession to the end. Three or four miles long.
The place of graves is surrounded by water and mountains.
The so-called owner of the mountain, Ding Shui, controls wealth. There are mountains and water, plus a bright hall.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It is open and windy and sunny. It can be seen that this is a place with good feng shui.
Huang Liang cried and howled, and a dozen strong middle-aged men carried the coffin and carefully placed it in the tomb. Just as the coffin was being sealed, several people wearing official uniforms and hats suddenly ran out from one side.
"Prefect Wei Yonghui and general magistrate Li Cunjin, why are they here?"
"Is it possible that they are so angry with Mr. Huangdian that they still dare to cause trouble during the funeral?"
"Isn't this bullying?"
"hateful!"
The people attending the funeral were talking and pointing, and some people were already cursing.
Anyway, the law does not blame the public, and if you are hiding in the crowd, no one knows who is scolding you. If you don't vent your anger at this time, then when will you wait?
Huang Liang, Huang Xiang, Huang Ju and others were also shocked by this sudden change. They couldn't believe that the Huang family had been bullied to a desperate situation and yet they still refused to let go!
It is tolerable, but what is unbearable!
Huang Ju grabbed a wooden stick and gritted his teeth. If they wanted to disturb his grandfather's burial, then they would risk their lives to let them know that the Huang family was bloody!
However, what happened next left countless people stunned.
Wei Yonghui, the magistrate of Xinzhou, and Li Cunjin, the general magistrate, actually ran to the tomb and knelt down. Then they burst into tears and shouted loudly: "Mr. Huang, it was us who were wrong. We were obsessed with wealth and interests. It was us. Wrong..."
Huang Ju was stunned and dropped the stick in his hand.
Huang Liang, Huang Xiang and others are also confused. Cats cry for mice, and weasels pay New Year greetings to chickens. That is to eat the mice and chickens, but now the Huang family has been eaten. Why are these people crying?
Seeing how heartbroken they were, with tears and runny noses running down their faces, it didn’t look like they were pretending to cry. Is it your father who died, or us?
Crying in more pain than a son, isn't this stealing the show?
What made Huang Liang and others feel most uneasy was that such a big official actually cried, admitted his mistake, and apologized in front of countless people!
Oh my God!
The government would actually admit its mistake and apologize?
How can this be!
Never heard of it before!
The mountain breeze is blowing, and the heaven and earth are silent.
Wei Yonghui and Li Cunjin stood up, knelt down towards the Huang family with sad faces, and kowtowed violently.
Huang Liang, Huang Xiang and others quickly got out of the way.
Who can bear the head of this official!
"W-what on earth is going on?"
Huang Ju was shocked and confused.
At this moment, a group of government officials came in force. The leader, wearing a black gauze hat and a golden pheasant collared shirt, walked over with a majestic look.
"Sir Governor Ru Yuru of Shanxi is here!"
Team leader Xu Gui shouted loudly, and his voice spread far away.
"Yes, it's you!"
Huang Xiang and Huang Ju recognized Ru Jun as the person who inquired about the coal mine and checked the land deed that night. They couldn't help being surprised and quickly knelt down.
Ru Yu walked up to Huang Xiang and others, pulled up the leader Huang Liang, then motioned for the others to stand up, turned around and walked to a high place, shouting to everyone in a loud voice: "I am the governor of Shanxi, you may not I know what a governor is, but please listen to me clearly. I am an official personally appointed by the emperor, and I am the largest official in Shanxi! All county magistrates, magistrates, and envoys obey me!"
"The emperor asked me to come to Shanxi just to visit the people and see if any officials were engaging in malpractice for personal gain, violating the will of the imperial court, and forcibly relocating the people. When I arrived in Xinzhou, I encountered the prefect's Yamen's forced purchase of the Huangjia Coal Mine, which made the elderly people in Huangdian depressed. And in the end, it was a great injustice!”
"Now let me tell you that the prefect Wei Yonghui was wrong, and the general magistrate Li Cunjin was also wrong! The land deed sale between the prefect's Yamen and the Huang family is invalid. Now, the land deed and the silver will be returned to the Huang family in full! Pay the money!"
Ru Yu waved his hand, and the back row of Yamen officers separated.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Eight people carried four boxes, and then opened them, revealing the white money, and this scene fell in the eyes of the people.
Yang Pu found pen, ink, paper and inkstone, handed the newly drafted land deed to Huang Ju, and said: "This land deed has been stamped with the official seal, and is guaranteed by Mr. Ru's private seal. You only need to write your name. This land deed It still belongs to the Huang family."
Huang Ju's hands were trembling a little. Although he still didn't know Ru Yu's identity, officials like Wei Yonghui and Li Cunjin were kneeling and did not dare to move. He must be a high official.
Such a high official is here to bring justice to the Huang family!
Huang Ju looked at Huang Liang and Huang Xiang. They shook their heads slightly, signaling Huang Ju not to want this "ominous thing" again.
Ru Yun said from the side: "This is what the Huang family should have. Taking back the coal mine can also comfort Mr. Huang's spirit in heaven."
Huang Ju gritted his teeth and said: "What if we take back the coal mine? Our whole family has to move to Beizhili! The government wants to force the move, so what can we do!"
There was an uproar among the people, and there was so much noise that it was difficult to hear what was being said.
But Ru Rui could feel that this was the anger and uneasiness of the people.
"Shut up, everyone!"
Ru Yu shouted loudly, shocking the whole audience, and the dark crowd fell into silence.
"The death of Mr. Huangdian is the fault of the Xinzhou government, the imperial court, and my fault! Now, I announce the dismissal of Wei Yonghui, the prefect of Xinzhou, criticize Li Cunjin from his official position, imprison him, and send him to the capital for trial!"
"good!"
When the people heard this, many people applauded.
It will be very satisfying if corrupt officials can be punished.
Ru Yu looked up at the morning sunshine, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "On behalf of the court, I apologize to the Huang family."
"What?"
Yang Pu's expression changed.
According to his plan, he only needs to let Wei Yonghui and Li Cunjin apologize. Since they lost their official positions anyway, they will be embarrassed if they are embarrassed. But Rujun is still an official, and she still needs to continue to be an official and admit that she has made mistakes. Isn't this just recording her own fault in the file?
The most important thing is that the emperor is behind Ru Yu. If he apologizes, doesn't it mean that the scholars and powerful people bow their heads to the lower class people, which may be used by others to attack...
Huang Ju and others were also shocked by Ru Yu's actions, and they were so moved that they hurriedly thanked him.
Ru Yu ascended and shouted: "You all heard clearly, the emperor said that Shanxi immigrants will never be forced to immigrate. Go, tell everyone, tell all Shanxi neighbors that there is no forced immigration! Any government dares to force immigrants to If you immigrate, come to Taiyuan Prefecture and find me, Rujun, and I will support you!"
This cry spread throughout the valley.
Ru Yu knew that if she wanted more people to know the news, she needed to create a bigger topic. Removing Wei Yonghui and others from their official positions was a topic, the government's apology was a topic, returning the money was a topic, and his own apology was also a topic. And the final cry is the most critical topic!
Compared with face and official career, the stability of Shanxi is more important, and the mission of the court is more important.
Ru Yu looked up at the sky with determination and fearlessness on her face.
Bet everything on yourself and deliver an accurate message with a cry. Now Shanxi is determined!
ps:
Brothers, it’s May, and the busy schedule of spring is finally behind us. Judging from work in previous years, we will probably still be busy for about half a month. But there is a high probability that I won’t work overtime too frequently, and I will finally be able to free up more time to code.
Many people have been asking Jingxue when the second or third update can be resumed, haha, thank you.
Jingxue strives to do two updates this month. Although I may occasionally work overtime and be unstable, I strive to write more.
What about monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, reminders, etc. Brothers, please support Xia Jingxue, thank you.
In May, "Da Ming" sets off!
