MTL - Peach Blossom-Chapter 60

Ji Wen and the county governor are in jail together.

Han Wang slept peacefully, and the next morning, he personally brought people to the county government to search.

The princess said that Ji Wen has collected a huge amount of people's wealth for several months, several times the tax in one year, which must have been recorded in a book. In order to keep the officials of all sizes from speaking out, they must share the spoils with them and seal the mouths of the people. In this way, there will be one record and one account book at Jiwen. As long as you find the directory and account book, the case will be clear at a glance, and the officials of the case can also be caught in one go.

The county governor's office is in the middle of the city, and there are countless pedestrians.

Outside the county governor's mansion, I saw many people looking around. Some of these people are well-dressed, some in ragged clothes, some merchants and hawkers, some officials and county officials, and even servants who do not know which family, either panicked or excited to visit.

The bustling and peaceful night I saw when I entered the city the day before yesterday, like a mirror, nothing left.

The King of Han only glanced at him, but he didn't let anyone disperse the idlers.

The servants and maids in the house were all detained in a courtyard. When the King of Han arrived, Li Sheren was interrogating him.

, I don't know about the exploitation. It's a matter of the yamen, the servant serves the lady in the backyard, I don't know how many."

Ji Wen used the name of King of Han wherever he went, and thanks to his ability, everyone believed him.

Han Wang's face sank. Seeing this, Li Sheren hurriedly ordered another person to answer.

I asked a few people in a row, and all they said were bits and pieces, not very useful.

Hanwang is directly searchable, and there is always a place to store a lot of stolen money. They also sent people to the county governor's and Ji Wen's residences to search the books of accounts. Lu Shangshu frowned upon hearing this. He had not been convicted, nor even had any evidence. It would be radical to take people first and then raid their homes.

The King of Han is not afraid at all, it doesn't matter if she is domineering, anyway, there is a princess, if something goes wrong, the princess will save her. Also thought that not everyone has a princess, Lu Shangshu has no princess, and no one can save him if something goes wrong. The King of Han looked at Lu Shangshu, who had no princess, very sympathetically, and said very considerately: "If someone goes back to Beijing to participate in the impeachment, Lu Qing can just push it on me. I'm not afraid to participate."

Lu Shangshu's sympathetic eyes were blurred by the name of King Han, and he didn't know where to make His Highness sympathize. It's just that His Highness's words have come to this point, so he should be taught that it is not good to persuade him.

After a morning search, the directory and account books were nowhere to be found, but the stolen money was found in the treasury.

Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver were grandly placed in the treasury. The king of Han took down the little official who was guarding Canglin and asked him to explain the source of the money. The clerk couldn't say why.

The King of Han simply took down all the officials of the county, imprisoned them together, and ordered people to interrogate them separately.

In one day, Dongcheng County officials, large and small, were all imprisoned.

In addition to the stolen goods, no one was found, and the King of Han was not discouraged, and returned to the prefecture happily in the evening.

The princess came out of the inner room, saw the king of Han coming back, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness is very majestic today."

Han Wang said happily: "Now everyone knows that what Ji Wen did was not my order."

She doesn't care about her reputation. She used to call her incompetent both inside and outside. How does the yellow-faced, skinny child think of her.

I noticed that the princess had changed into a new dress, not the one she wore in the morning, so she couldn't help but wonder, "Yao, have you gone out?"

The princess nodded and took off the long crown for the king of Han. The King of Han bowed his head, waited for the long crown, and asked, "Where did you go?"

"In prison." The princess replied.

Han Wang's eyes lit up, he rubbed up to the princess's side, and reached out to hug her arm: "Did you interrogate Ji Wen?"

The princess looked at her and smiled without saying a word.

The king of Han was attached to the princess, Ji Wen knew that his guilt was unforgivable, and he refused to confess his guilt. Where did the two silvers come from? Lu Shangshu was the chief officer of the Criminal Department, and he had the ability to interrogate prisoners, but he really asked him to ask two of them, but they were all minor officials.

The King of Han originally planned to retrial tomorrow, but the princess has been there, and there must be a result.

She was not in a hurry to know the result, but was curious about how the princess was interrogated, and pestered the princess to know.

The princess told her to entangle her, so she had to say: "Destroy the soul."

Han Wang was stunned for a while, he didn't quite understand what it meant, he only guessed that it was a spell, and asked, "How to capture the soul?"

The princess described to her what is soul capture and how to capture soul.

Han Wang was stunned for a while, then Fang exclaimed: "It's amazing."

The princess paid attention to her expression. Seeing that she only admired and admired her, she was not afraid, so she couldn't help rubbing her head as a reward. His Royal Highness used to be so afraid of monsters, just listening to people talking about ghosts and strange things at night would be too frightened to say a word, lest the monsters get out of the story and catch her. But now, listening to her describe in detail the so-called magic method, she is no longer afraid.

The king of Han was scratched on the head, not knowing that the princess rewarded her, she was still very satisfied. She rubbed against the princess and refused to go away, complaining to the princess, "Ji Wen told people everywhere that he was under my orders."

The princess comforted: "It's really bad, His Highness will definitely bring him to justice."

The King of Han was greatly comforted, and the princess wanted to hug him.

The princess gave her permission one by one, the king of Han was happy, the princess is very good, every day is good, but today is especially good. She crooked her body and put her pillow on the princess' lap, listening to what she had asked from Ji Wen's place.

Lu Shangshu was very relieved when he found the stolen goods. In the end, there is a harvest, and when I return to the DPRK in the future, if a minister impeaches His Highness for his merits and faults, His Majesty can also pardon the King of Han without concealing his faults.

Who knew that the next day, the King of Han sent people to the guest house to arrest people.

Lu Shangshu felt that his heart was broken. He thought he came to the second county because of this. It is with him. Who knows that His Highness is very assertive and acts very domineering.

It is justifiable to arrest the chief, but it is a sin to disturb the people.

Lu Shangshu hurried to the guest house, only to see people outside the guest house full of people, pointing and pointing. Two teams of imperial forests stood in front of the guest house, and the King of Han walked out of them, and behind him two soldiers escorted a man out.

"Your Highness is this?" Lu Shangshu asked.

Han Wang replied: "Ji Wen's confidant."

Lu Shangshu was horrified: "How does Your Highness know?"

A Yao told her. The King of Han was proud and proud, but unfortunately he could not speak to others. Just imitating His Majesty's inscrutable appearance, smiled with Lu Shangshu, and brought the confidant to interrogate.

Lu Shangshu was greatly amazed, he was very surprised, he followed him all the way, and watched with his own eyes the Han Wang searched for the directory and account book from his confidant.

This is irrefutable evidence, Ji Wen can't deny it, and with this list, even an accomplice can't escape. Not only Dongcheng County, but also Dong'an County, and the King of Han sent people to Dong'an County to capture both the officials and the case officials.

The officials, big and small, caught one after another, and the people believed that His Royal Highness the King of Han really came to investigate and deal with Ji Wen, and everyone praised the King of Han for being wise.

The evidence is there, and the perpetrators have been caught. The next step is the interrogation and the recording of the confession. Lu Shangshu was a shrewd old man and a capable person here. King Han followed him for two days and realized that he couldn't help, so he stopped going.

She had that small mountain village in her heart. On that day, the old man said that he had been out of food for two days, and she left a little money, which should be able to relieve her urgent needs, but what about the other people in the village? Not only this village, but also the rest of the people in the county, who are afraid they are still hungry.

The money that Ji Wen exploited from the people must be returned to the people, otherwise how can the people live?

She discussed with Lu Shangshu and decided to split up. Lu Shangshu continued to interrogate the criminals, and she went to comfort the people.

He invited the local elders to come, and according to Ji Wen's account book, the money was returned to them, and they were then distributed to their respective people. That way it won't be messed up.

She looked at her curiously, even if she couldn't move her eyes, she spoke in a good voice and never put on airs.

If you don't understand something, ask Li Sheren. Although Li Sheren is a small staff in the palace, he is very proficient in government affairs, and is even more skilled in the world. Everything, big and small, is handled properly.

Han Wang felt that he was so talented that he was really buried in her house.

Fumin was raised from a more remote county. He can run two or three places a day without a stop. When he stayed at the last place, the King of Han ordered people to divide the money and asked about the local details. How is the life of the people, the corvée and servitude are heavy, and are there any exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes?

She is young, good-looking, beautiful, and her skin is better than snow. Seeing her not putting on airs, the elders gradually let go and dare to say a few words to her.

There was a man who kept his head down, wishing to drown himself in the crowd, the King of Han looked at him curiously, the man blushed with shame, knelt on the ground, and said he was guilty.

It was the man who stayed in the house that day.

The king of Han will not care about him. It is Ji Wen who ruined her reputation. What can the people know? Just clarify.

The man is still ashamed, saying that he wants to be the Han King Lisheng Temple.

The rest are agreeing.

Han King's heart moved, she had long heard that the official was upright, and when he left office, the people would build a lifetime shrine or a monument of virtue and government for him, and she knew that there was a minister in the previous dynasty. In his lifetime, the incense in the ancestral hall was prosperous, and there are still temples dedicated to his image after his death.

This is a great virtue and will last forever.

The King of Han thought that only sages, gods, and Buddhas could receive incense. Everyone in the people said that she was good, and that God knows it, and she will definitely add help to the princess's immortality.

She hurriedly said seriously: "I'm still young, and I don't know the suffering of the people. Thanks to the princess's report, I was able to rush the people's urgency. Before leaving the capital, the princess asked me to live a good life. The people please order. You want to thank me, don't thank me, just thank the princess."

Li Sheren heard it strangely, since ancient times, most of the merits for the king are given to his subordinates, so as to win the hearts of the people, but he has never heard of giving credit to his wife.

Li Zheng also had some insight, and since he thought the same as Li Sheren, it could be seen that the king of Han was serious and serious, and he couldn't help but believe it, and there was no reason for the king of Han to deceive them. They have experienced the pain of being in a pot without food, and they are very grateful to whoever helped them out of their predicament. Listening to the words of the King of Han, I deeply feel that the Princess of Han is a rare woman in this world, who is smart and kind, and benefits all people.
