Chapter 662: A Big Thing Brewing
Without Yang Ke in charge, almost no one came to cover the things he and his subordinates did before, and it was difficult to clean up for a few days, many people who went bankrupt because of the gambling house ran to complain, and many people who were bullied also went to complain, in normal times, they didn't dare to give them a hundred dares, but now they dare.
That's the potential.
Yang Ke was arrested, it is a signal, the people don't know the struggle at the top, they don't know what they are tired of, they only believe what they see in their eyes, that is, Yang Ke, the descendant of the dignified Yang family, was actually arrested, and the city was full of storms, what does this mean?
The Yang family has lost power, and there are people who take the lead, this person is afraid that there will be a leader when doing things, or why is the role of the leader the most important, because it can guide more people to do things.
It's the same with complaints.
It's not that no one doesn't want to sue, it's just that no one dares, but if a trend is formed, ten people, eight people are gone, how can the remaining two people sit still.
Therefore, a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning in the eyes of high-ranking officials, and something that would not even be put in the eyes of the senior officials, was actually slowly brewing and became a major event.
By the time the people above knew, the situation was out of control.
Even in the end, not only Yang Ke, but the Yang family, as a big family, has many wings, over the years, there have been too many things to do with the help of the Yang family, and there have been too many people who have been bullied, but because of fear, they feel that they are alone and helpless, and they dare not sue the official, or they sue the official, and there is no result.
Over time, there are more than a dozen a year, and there are hundreds in ten years.
It can be said that the biggest thing in the past few days is the Jingzhou government order, in this place in Jingzhou, any official is bigger than his government commander, and no one can afford to provoke him, so he has always been a low-headed man and a low-key worker, as you can imagine, he has also suffered a lot of anger over the years.
This time, so many people suddenly appeared to complain, which really frightened the lord of the government at first, because almost all of the people who came to sue came to the Yang family.
There are those who directly sue Yang Ke, and there are also those who target some of the wings and side branches of the Yang family, in short, they are all against the Yang family.
The political sensitivity of being an official is naturally far beyond that of ordinary people, the first reaction of this government order is that there is a big move above, who doesn't know, the current situation of the Holy Dynasty is the critical moment of the replacement of the old and the new, and the Taishi Lu Yan is about to resign from the official to cultivate, and impact a higher realm, and not only the Taishi Lu Yan, now many high-ranking officials above the Holy Dynasty are already old, under the immortals, one hundred and fifty years old is considered an advanced age, if it is a Taoist immortal, more than four hundred years old should go back to live for a long time.
The Holy Dynasty is an official, and it is not that he has not lived for a long time, and generally when he reaches the age of age, he has to retire and wait for the younger generation to fill in, which is also the rule set by the Holy Ancestor of Taizong. Just like the cultivation of the Infinite Golden Immortal of Taizong's Holy Ancestor back then, the longevity can reach three thousand years, and it is not that he will leave after three hundred years of holding the Holy Dynasty, Taizong is like this, and no one dares to disobey the successor officials.
Therefore, this time the replacement of the top level of the Holy Dynasty is not only Lu Yan Taishi, let's say that Da Situ, Da Sima and others have also entered the Shoufu Pavilion for more than 200 years, and some are even longer than Lu Yan Taishi, naturally these high-ranking officials should also come down, so now the competition is extremely fierce, everyone knows that the officialdom of the Holy Dynasty is now surging, and the general petty officials can only tremble under this wind and waves, act carefully, and try not to cause trouble, but if they don't cause trouble, the matter is found, and they can't push it out.
The Jingzhou government decree is not low to say that the official position is not low, and it is also from the fifth grade, and the official rank alone has been compared with the long history of other states and places, and even higher in power.
But if the long history is put in Jingzhou, it is nothing.
In Jingzhou, Wupin is just the standard for being able to participate in the court meeting, and he is not even qualified to participate in the upper-level game.
Now that so many people are coming to complain, there is a feeling that the wall is falling down on everyone, and the keen government commander has sensed that something is wrong, and he feels that this must be the result of the game at the top.
Now the conditions all point to the Yang family, which is too obvious. Now the question is, what do you do?
Because of the special official position, the Jingzhou government order is not a person from the Xiao family and the Yang family, after all, this is an important place in Jingzhou, and it will not be allowed above, if he really takes refuge in one side, he is afraid that he will not be able to do this government order for a long time.
That's why he's embarrassed.
At first, he could still drag, press, and delay time, but there were too many people to come, and he couldn't hold it back.
Not only the government decree, but the officials in the city government have been walking on cold ice these days, and even the sound of talking and walking is much quieter on weekdays.
In the study, the Jingzhou Mansion Ling had a sad face, and next to him was the clerk.
"Lord Fu Ling, I'm afraid that this matter is not a way, just today, there are more than a dozen people who have come to complain, plus the previous one, there are already hundreds of people, and now the whole Jingzhou is full of rumors, and if it drags on, I am afraid that something big will happen." The clerk looked worried.
If something happens to the city government, he won't be able to benefit.
"Do you think this official wants to delay?" The government commander was full of helplessness: "Tell you, if these things are not handled properly, my official will be considered to have done it, hey, the game above, the struggle for power and profit, why bother us below." ”
The clerk thought for a moment, and then said, "My lord, the lower official has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not. ”
The government ordered: "But it doesn't hurt to say it. ”
The clerk said: "I think this matter is complicated, but it is not particularly troublesome, my lord, you think, since we know that it is a game at the top level, then we can't sit still, do nothing, if we really don't do anything, then it's called trouble, since the matter is found, I don't need to be afraid, as long as we are officials of the Holy Dynasty, as long as we act according to the law, we are worthy of our hearts, this is the most important thing, who can say that we are not?"
The clerk's words were a word to wake up the person in his dream, and the government order pondered carefully, and nodded again and again.
"Yes, yes, you're right, this matter does involve upper-level games and fights, but so what, as the commander of the Jingzhou Prefecture, as long as I act impartially, if I don't do anything, it will be true, and even cause trouble. Let's go, let's go to the court and deal with the case. ”
The Jingzhou government order here has figured it out, since the trouble is coming, and there is no way to hide, then what should be done, strictly follow the law of the Holy Dynasty, what can the Yang family do, no matter how big they are, can they be bigger than the laws of the Holy Dynasty?
So this government order dealt with day and night, and actually tried many keys clearly in a short period of time, and wrote them into the file one by one, for the perpetrators, the arrest of the arrest, the sentence of the sentence, of course, he will report the file in time, that is, I am dealing with official business, and he is not qualified to participate in other entanglements.
Doing these things, Jingzhou Mansion Ling was also sweating in his heart, he was afraid that the people of the Yang family would interfere, even against him, but what he was worried about did not happen.
Later, when I thought about it, I knew what was going on, where did the current Yang family dare to mess around again, if it really suppressed people with power, then the matter would be even bigger.
......
The Jingzhou government order understands the truth, how can the upper echelons of the Holy Dynasty not understand, and how can Yang Zhenqing not know?
In fact, when the matter was in trouble, he had already gotten the news, and after Yang Zhenqing knew, he knew that it was bad, if the previous Yang Ke incident was an introduction, and he could still think of suppressing it, then now it has aroused public anger, and there are hundreds of cases against the Yang family, and this matter is a bit big.
Indeed, the magnates in Jingzhou, who have not done anything to oppress people with power, have offended everyone, use power to make money, many people have done it, as long as it is not too much, everyone will turn a blind eye, this is an unspoken rule of officialdom, no one will break it, and no one will make a fuss about this kind of thing, otherwise, it is really an enemy of the entire officialdom, whether he or a high-ranking official of Xiao Yu's level, he will not do this.
But this time, it was not that someone made a fuss about it, but because Yang Ke was arrested, and the associated effects were produced.
This is unexpected, even Yang Zhenqing didn't expect things to develop to this point, and now this matter has affected him, and Taishi Lu Yan is already dissatisfied with him.
Although Master Lu Yan didn't say it explicitly, Yang Zhenqing could see that if he didn't ask, it was the biggest dissatisfaction, if he asked, it would be easy to say, because if he asked, it means that he wanted to listen to his own explanation, and if he didn't ask, he didn't even want to listen to the explanation.
That's a big deal.
The most troublesome thing is that this matter is not a secret stumbling by the opponent, which means that he has suffered such a big loss in vain, and the depression in Yang Zhenqing's heart can be imagined.
At present, the change of officials of the Holy Dynasty has reached the most critical time, and if such a serious mistake occurs at this time, it will already affect the situation on his side.
However, Yang Zhenqing is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he can become one of the best immortal officials in the Holy Dynasty, and it is obviously impossible without two brushes.
Although the current situation is chaotic, it is not that there is no way to solve it, it depends on whether you are willing to pay a certain price for it.
In Yang Zhenqing's status, he can afford some of the costs.
Thinking of this, Yang Zhenqing immediately gathered his subordinates, made arrangements and instructions, first made a gesture, sincerely apologized, and even rectified the Yang family and restrained the clansmen's wings, and this is obviously only the first step, and this step is not clever, what is really smart is Yang Zhenqing's next step.
He actually initiated the rectification of Jingzhou, and all the children of officials are not allowed to do business, and this article alone can set off a bloody storm in Jingzhou.
The news spread quickly, Yang Zhenqing was not joking this time, his posture was very sufficient, and he actually took advantage of the momentum of the people's hatred for the children of officials to take advantage of the situation to make profits, adding a lot of color to his own official career.
