Chapter Ninety-Two: The Prophet of the Spring River Plumbing Duck
At the end of April, the official document of the Criminal Department reached Lantian County through the Yamen of the Governor of Xi'an.
It was only at this time that Yun Zhao remembered that he, the magistrate, still had the power to decide the case.
Although the name of the sentence is naturally presided over, the document reported to the prefect's yamen is to be printed by Yun Zhao.
Therefore, the famous young magistrate of Lantian County came to the county government of Lantian County, which was renovated by Yunfu, for the first time, to inquire about the prison.
I thought that there would be a lot of unjust prisons here, but as a result, Yun Zhao checked for a whole day and didn't find any loopholes, at least, judging from the documents, the verdicts are all even, and the evidence is conclusive, and most of the people in prison deserve it.
Except for the fact that the mortality rate of prisoners was higher during custody, there did not seem to be a major problem.
Regarding the death of the prisoner, Yun Zhao felt inhumane from the beginning, but now he can handle it calmly.
Not because of anything else, when the people outside were dying in droves, the lives of prisoners were extremely cheap at this time.
When he entered the prison to inspect it in person, the people inside still had the strength to shout 'wronged', which made Yun Zhao very relieved, at least, these people still had the strength, and there was nothing wrong with Zhongqi.
Yun Zhao, who had read the file, took the file and asked the criminals one by one, and the criminals no longer had the confidence to shout 'wronged'.
Except for those who owed money and couldn't afford to pay taxes and were released on the spot by Yun Zhao, Yun Zhao mostly took a blind attitude towards the prisoners in criminal cases.
The people who came in because of such a trivial matter as a brawl had already gone out, and the prisoners who had committed such a thing as murder had also been escorted to Xi'an Mansion early.
In the entire county jail, the most are stealing!
These people Yun Zhao are ready to play fifty boards first and then release them without asking about indiscriminately.
He didn't have the energy to deal with such a small matter, no matter what the reason for the thief was stealing, in short, if he caught the thief, it was not a mistake to beat the board.
As for the women's prison, there is no one in it at all, in Lantian County, women commit crimes, and they can't go to the county government at all, and the relatives are worried that the woman will be embarrassed by taking off her pants and hitting the board, so she has already dealt with it in the township, and the only way to deal with it is - Shentang!
However, since Yun Zhao no longer allowed people to be thrown into the pond to pollute the water source, it is said that another punishment has been invented in the township - called the roll sweep tube!
Yun Zhao didn't know if it was more cruel to be hurt by the sinking pond or swept away, but he was powerless to change this, this is also a goddamn convention in the township rules and regulations, and the foundation is so deep that it even surpasses the "Da Ming Law"!
It is the habit of the people of the Ming Dynasty to watch the excitement, when the thirty-seven thieves who committed the theft case were beaten with fifty boards, the cheers in the crowd did not stop.
Flesh and blood are certain, but Yun Zhao is not allowed to break people!
Then, after this group of thieves was beaten on the board, they were dragged to the streets by the people of Lantian County, who misunderstood, and they were not allowed to wear pants!
In the middle of the night, Yun Zhao was still looking at the land book, which was what Yun Zhao valued the most, most of the people in the Ming world were tenant farmers, that is to say, they basically did not have any means of production except for themselves.
Such a group of people are born to be enslaved, and they have no power to fight back.
Only when people like Li Hongji and Zhang Bingzhong become famous, can they change their identities.
In the same way, they will pay the price of their own lives for a change of life.
Someone coughed at the door......
Yun Zhao raised his head and found that the county Cheng Zhang Tianxiong, the chief bookkeeper Liu Xueli, and the warden He Chengdao were standing at the door with a plate of dim sum in their hands.
Yun Zhao smiled and invited the three of them in, and after Qian Shaoshao brought the tea, he stood behind Yun Zhao and waited to pour tea and water for the four giants of Lantian County.
"The county is really diligent......"
Zhang Tianxiong, who was the leader, sighed first, and seemed to be very emotional.
Yun Zhao smiled and glanced at the three of them with his eyes and said, "If there is anything, it is all native to the hometown, so you don't need to hide it." ”
As he spoke, he grabbed a piece of King Kong crisp from the plate brought by Zhang Tianxiong, and took a bite of the sweetness of eating.
Zhang Tianxiong saw that Yun Zhao had eaten the food he brought, so he said with a smile: "The mother-in-law at home is clumsy, and she can still handle the vajra crisp she learned when she was a child." ”
Yun Zhao took a sip of tea and swallowed the dim sum foam in his mouth, grabbed another piece of pastry and said, "Auntie is not from Guanzhong?" ”
Zhang Tianxiong said with a smile: "People from Xiangyang Mansion! ”
Hearing this, Yun Zhao got up and looked at the map spread on the table, searched all the way down the Han River, and after a while, he found Xiangyang Mansion, and nodded at this place with his finger: "Good place." ”
Zhang Tianxiong sighed and said: "The reputation of the land of fish and rice has been lost for a long time. ”
Yun Zhao said: "Because of what? ”
Zhang Tianxiong said helplessly: "Flood! ”
Yun Zhao frowned and said, "Han Shui? ”
Zhang Tianxiong smiled bitterly: "Just across the Qinling Mountains, there is a drought on our side, and there is a flood on the Hanshui side, which is the worst this year."
When there is a flood, there are displaced people, and if there are displaced people, there are robbers, and the people in the government there are full of wine bags and rice bags, and the small bandits cannot be quelled. ”
Yun Zhao looked at Zhang Tianxiong and said, "What do you mean?" ”
"Some families want to move to Lantian County!"
Yun Zhao frowned and said, "We don't have any extra land. ”
Liu Xueli, the chief bookkeeper, pushed the pastries he brought to Yun Zhao, and said with a smile: "There is actually land. ”
Yun Zhao grabbed a piece of pastry from the plate brought by Liu Xueli and said, "I just looked at the land book, why didn't I find it?" ”
Liu Xueli smiled, pointed his finger heavily on the location of Shangnan County, and said: "The people here are about to be killed, just to settle these people, and my county government can also collect a lot of money!" ”
Yun Zhao looked at Liu Xueli with a smile and said, "Do you know why my Ming Dynasty has fallen into such a situation?" ”
Liu Xueli pointed at Yun Zhao, and then pointed at Zhang Tianxiong, himself and He Chengdao and said with a smile: "There are too many lands for people like us. ”
Yun Zhao was taken aback, stood up and said, "You actually know? ”
He Chengdao said on the side: "County Zun, how can we not know? When my grandfather was a tenant in Nanxiang, 30% of the total population of Nanxiang was in my father's generation, and in my hands, it was 70%.
The people in the countryside are getting poorer and poorer, and we have seen it with our own eyes, so how can we not know it?
It is precisely because we know that there are fewer and fewer people with fields at home, and there are more and more tenants, that we are like sitting on pins and needles.
In the past, there was a rich family in the land of five miles, and now there is a rich family of my He family left in Nanxiang, and in the huge Lantian County, there are only four of us left who can be called rich.
This time, Lantian County is full of displaced people, if it weren't for the county's good response, it is still unknown whether our four families can survive.
So, no matter how harsh the county demands, the three of us responded in unison, and did not dare to disobey, fortunately, we worked together to tide over the difficulties, although we lost some money and food, the family business was saved, because there are more paddy fields, this year's income may be more.
There is a county respect, and the three of us decided to take the county as the leader.
It's just that the strength of our four families is a little thin after all, if we can introduce the rich families of Xiangyang Mansion to migrate to Shangnan, wouldn't the strength of my Lantian County grow a lot?
The county is only eight years old and has made an extraordinary move, and we are old, under the wings of the county honor, we will be able to end up with a prosperous family business and prosperous descendants. ”
After listening to He Chengdao's heart-to-heart words, Yun Zhao ate two big spoons of cake He Chengdao brought in a row to show his appreciation.
After eating the cake, Yun Zhao wiped his mouth and said, "Shangnan County is not under the jurisdiction of my Lantian County!" ”
Zhang Tianxiong laughed and said: "The county respects whether Zhang can become the county magistrate of Shangnan County?" ”
Yun Zhao was stunned for a moment, and immediately pointed at Zhang Tianxiong and said, "Do you think you can succeed?" ”
Liu Xueli said with a smile: "He naturally can't do it alone, if Shangnan County is also included in the protection scope of my Lantian County regimental training envoy, Liu feels that Brother Zhang is more than enough to be the county commander of Shangnan County." ”
He Chengdao saw that Yun Zhao was silent, and said: "County Zun, Brother Zhang is the county order of Shangnan County, and he must follow all the rules of my Lantian County, and he will not dare to disobey him." ”
Yun Zhao opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Tianxiong and said, "Has the prefect Zhang Daodao already gone there?" ”
Zhang Tianxiong said: "The relationship between Hong Chengchou and Hong Dudu! ”
Yun Zhao said with a smile: "Since this is the case, you immediately go to Xi'an Mansion to handle this matter, this matter should not be delayed sooner rather than later!" ”
Zhang Tianxiong was overjoyed when he heard this, and hugged his fists and said: "A certain family also knows the meaning of Hongdudu, but he is far away as an official in the sky, and this Lantian County is still respected by the county!" ”
Yun Zhao smiled: "Great goodness! ”
After sending away the rich family who had achieved the three goals, Yun Zhao stood in the yard for a long time with his hands behind his back, and saw Qian Xiaoxiao picking his nostrils very quietly on the side, so he asked, "Do you think I should agree?" ”
Qian Shaoshao shook his head and said, "I don't know, I only know that if you want to kill the three of them, it's too late to give the order now." ”
