Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 98
"Why did the country say this? The country has worked day and night and lost a lot of weight. Every time the slaves think of it, they feel very sorry for the country." Song Dian said, wiping his tears. The little fat man lowered his head suspiciously, touched his round belly, and nodded. He turned his head and said: "I have lost a lot of weight. This Wang Fu has talent, but his eyesight is not good. How can I be fat?"

"exactly."

"Okay, hurry up and prepare some food for me, prepare more."

The next day, the little fat man was about to summon Wang Fu to discuss again, but Yang Qiu rushed over in a hurry. Xiao Huangmen informed him that Yang Qiu had something important to report, and the little fat man immediately let him in. He had sent Yang Qiu to the East China Sea to investigate the wealthy Mi family, and it seemed that there were some results.

"Your Majesty!" Yang Qiu walked in and saluted the Son of Heaven heavily.

The little fat man was taken aback, Yang Qiu looked extremely tired, he could understand this, after all it was such a long journey, but he still had some injuries on his body, which made the little fat man a little surprised and even furious. Anyone else dare to hurt their own minister? ?Yang Qiu didn't complain, he just told the little fat man what he saw and heard in the East China Sea.

Sure enough, the Mi family's fertile land is countless, and it is impossible to count. Most of the land in Qu County is owned by his Mi family. In addition, the county officials, big and small, are all funded by the Mi family. Thinking about it, it is an extremely terrifying number. Hearing this, the little fat man is also surprised. Under the policy of emphasizing capital over end, how can there be such a rich man who is not found out by the superiors?

He frowned, looked at Yang Qiu, and asked: "Then what's the matter with your injury?"

Yang Qiu's left hand was bandaged thickly. When he heard the emperor's question, he frowned and said, "Your minister and Qu County learned about this and were chased and killed. You should show your identity to the local officials to survive." , the little fat man squinted his eyes, and Yang Qiu continued: "The Mi family actually distorted the holy will without authorization, bought land without permission, and made the people go to farm!"

"what?"

"Relying on the help of many old heroes in Qu County, the Mi family even distorted the holy will, saying that His Majesty asked the people to abandon the land, go to the farmland, contribute to the country, and then buy the people's land at a low price. The people are afraid and do not want to abandon it. Farming land, and afraid of being punished by His Majesty, they sold the farmland one after another."

"Damn it! Damn it!!!" The little fat man jumped up and roared angrily. He could already imagine how helpless those people in Qu County sold the farmland left by their ancestors and how much they hated themselves. His eyes widened, his eyes were full of murderous intent, Yang Qiu was terrified, he lowered his head, not daring to speak again, the little fat man asked: "Where are my pavilion chiefs Li Zheng? Where are my party members and county magistrates? What do they do?" went!!"

"Your Majesty, most of the county magistrates and eunuchs don't know about this matter, but the county lieutenant Cao Ting, the elder, and the head of the Mi family, the minister asked to see the eunuch and wanted to report this matter, but the eunuch thought he was despicable and didn't want to see it."

"Hahaha, okay, okay, my big Han officials, and merchants are the leaders? Yang Qiu, call me a group of ministers!! Within an hour, I will rush to the palace!!"

The little fat man's chest heaved and heaved, apparently reaching the verge of eruption, Yang Qiu hurriedly took the order and went to summon the officials. When the little Huangmen frightened and informed the officials, the officials were shocked by the terrified expression of the little Huangmen. After discovering the clue, they rushed to the main hall in a hurry. All the ministers came to the palace to meet each other and sat in the main hall separately, waiting for the emperor.

The little fat man came in angrily, and several guards rushed into the hall and guarded the surrounding areas, which made all the officials terrified. The emperor is going to start killing again?The little fat man sat on the upper seat, looked at the officials, and sneered. Suddenly, he turned his head and looked at Qiao Xuan. Mr. Qiao, is there anything missing about the matter of garrisoning the fields?"

Qiao Xuan hurriedly thought about what was wrong. He thought for a long time, but he couldn't think of anything. He leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know if there is anything missing."

"I don't know? Hahaha, I don't know. Mr. Yang?" The little fat man turned his head suddenly.

Yang Ci sighed helplessly in his heart, knowing that this matter could not be avoided, he slowly came to the emperor, leaned over to listen, the little fat man asked: "Who is the prefect of Donghai County?"

"It's Zhao Qian, Zhao Yanxin, the youngest son of the Marquis of Chuting."

"It's still a famous official!" The little fat man got up, holding a bamboo slip, walked slowly to Yang Ci, handed him the bamboo slip in his hand, and said with a sneer: "Come on, take a look, Mr. Yang, look at this official." How will things be done after that!", this bamboo slip is Yang Qiu's report, which recorded the events of the East China Sea in detail, Yang Ci looked at it with some doubts, and his face changed drastically! !

He leaned over and said: "I have neglected my duty, I don't know what happened, so I ordered Zhao Qian to investigate strictly!"

"No need, who is the governor of Xuzhou?"

"Ba Zhi, Ba Jingzu."

"Give him an order to copy that thief for me! Divide the land he has privately swallowed up and distribute it to the people, inform the people of his evil deeds of distorting the imperial decree and oppressing the people, and tell him that within 20 days, Qu County will be pacified for me." Go against the grain! Send me the head of the head of the Mi Family Patriarch! In addition, Zhao Qian and the county magistrate of Qu County don’t have to continue doing this, let the Ting Wei arrest him and put him in jail!!”

Yang Ci leaned over and said, "I obey the order!"

"Also, if I want to worship Wang Fu as the official order, the position of Situ cannot be vacant. Mr. He is my teacher, and I want to worship him as Situ. For the rest of the vacancies, I hope that the three gentlemen can discuss on their own, and then they will be suitable. Let me tell you, and I will make a decision again!" Yang Ci and others said yes, the emperor left angrily, Yang Ci sighed helplessly, and showed the memorial in his hand to the officials.

After the officials saw it, they were even more angry. It's just a mere merchant, so it's like this?

It almost killed the lives of all our talented people!

After discussing for a while, everyone immediately notified the governor of Xuzhou through the mansion, asking him to deal with the affairs of the East China Sea as soon as possible. Convict and arrest the entire Mi family. In addition, the pavilion chief Li Zheng who participated in this matter, and even the officials of the county and county will be arrested and severely punished!

Xuzhou,

Ba Zhi, governor of Xuzhou, was talking with his friends in the mansion, but the house was pitch dark and the lights were not lit. The two sat by the window and had a good conversation by the moonlight. Ba Zhi's friends were not surprised at all. The governor, the whole Xuzhou people know him as a man, Ba Zhi is a very good official, he is frugal and simple, which has reached an extreme.

He only has one official uniform, and he has been mending the seams for four years!

He never lights up at night, even if it is like now, when friends come, he never lights up, for fear of wasting money, and his friends understand his behavior and don't say much.

His integrity has reached an unbelievable level. When he was in office, he did not bring his wife and children to live with him, for fear that his expenses would exceed the scope of his salary. When the black turban was damaged, he did not replace it, but mixed it with water. Glue mending continued to be used, and his salary was used to subsidize the old, weak, orphans and widows during his tenure. As soon as the salary came, he would happily donate it to others quietly.

He continued to live a life of poverty and frugality. For the Governor of Yizhou, his poverty has long been a joke for many people.

And this poor governor was chatting with his friends, when suddenly there was a rapid and intensive sound of horseshoes outside the door.

　The past of this governor is recorded in the history books, not fabricated by the old wolf. Every time the old wolf reads the history books, he admires this person a little bit, but he also feels sorry for his family. It is fine for one person to love the people, but poverty has reached such a level Instead, the old wolf made a bad comment.
