Chapter 53 Killing Pigs

 "It feels so comfortable!" Qiu Ziqi, the prefect of Nanning, moaned happily.

Mr. Qiu is taking a bath. In the Ming Dynasty, a state of etiquette, scholars listed "bathing", "appreciating antiques", "obscene incense" and "reciting famous quotes" as the four most elegant interests. Every household has a bathhouse, and the larger one

There are also public bathhouses "Huntang" in the city.

Taking a bath is not unusual, but what is strange is that Mr. Qiu’s bathing method is a little extravagant. Ordinary people only use a bathtub to take a bath; wealthy people dig a small pool; Mr. Qiu’s bathtub is a little larger, only a square meter.

It looks like five feet.

His eyes are like red phoenixes, his eyebrows are like lying silkworms, he is nine feet tall, his lips are square and his mouth is straight, his mustache is light, his forehead is broad and full, and he has a good appearance. The only flaw is that his belly is a bit big, and he is lying on the bed.

In the bathtub, the big white belly covered the legs. Six maids wearing only obscene clothes were waiting on them. One woman was holding a medicine tray with lipstick, facial medicine, bath towels and other things on it;

There was a fruit plate with all kinds of seasonal fruits in attractive colors; a woman applied ointment on him; a woman massaged his head, shoulders and neck; a woman held a towel to rub mud to remove dirt; a woman held his big feet and did a pedicure.

Qiu Ziqi squinted his eyes, let out a long breath, and squeezed a maid's body hard. His hands were so strong that the maid was about to burst into tears, but she didn't dare to cry out in pain.

Mr. Qiu has been in a bad mood recently and needs to vent. Chen Bangyan, the censor of Guangxi who was appointed by the Supervisory State, arrived in Nanning. Qiu Ziqi felt that there was a sharp sword that was slowly cutting off his good head.

??

Chen Bangyan, the censor of the Supervisory Office and patrolling Guangxi, was full of passion and ambition along the way.

Before setting off, Zhu Hengjia called himself together with Li Ruyue, who was patrolling Guangdong, and Chen Zizhuang, who was patrolling Annan, and encouraged him: "When you go here, just learn from Tai Su and work boldly; I will never be like Taizu."

Emperor Gao beats his ministers and others like that."

Ru Taisu was the censor of the Taizu Dynasty, and he was an upright person. Taizu was too strict in governing and often killed ministers for trivial matters. Ru Taisu often advised Taizu, and Taizu was very annoyed. He wrote a poem when giving a banquet one day

He frightened Ru Taisu: "I will drink from the golden cup with you, but I will not spare you with the white blade." Ru Taisu continued the rhyme and said: "I am sincere in serving the country, and I will not avoid the anxiety of the holy heart." Taizu was also surprised by this.

Later, Taizu finally found a reason, saying that Ru Taisu was too verbose in writing. The memorial that could have been written in 500 words ended up being more than 10,000 words! He had someone give Ru Taisu a beating.<

/p>

The problem is that Ru Taisu couldn't have written it so long! Taizu was a murderer, often killing people for some inexplicable reasons. For example, he was a monk and was particularly sensitive to the words "light", "bald" and "monk".

, and also participated in the Red Scarf Army, and he was taboo about others mentioning the words "thief" and "robber". The congratulatory note written by Xu Yikui, a scholar in Hangzhou, boasted that "under the broad sky, he was born a saint, and he will set the example in this life." It's over.

!There is "light", "生" is the same as "seng", and "ze" is homophonic to "thief", so he was beheaded. In such a tragic political atmosphere, even if Ru Taisu wanted to remonstrate with Taizu, he did not dare to do so directly.

It took me more than 10,000 words to dare to tell the true meaning.

After Taizu gave Ru Taisu a beating, he also reflected: Why did Ru Taisu have to write more than 10,000 words for a memorial that could only be completed in 500 words? He thought for a long time, finally understood Ru Taisu's painstaking efforts, and said

He lamented: "It is difficult to be a king, but it is also not easy to be a minister!" So Taizu no longer easily killed ministers, but instead beat them.

From beheading to imperial staff, Ru Taisu's punishment was worth it! He created a story that will last forever! All the censors of the Ming Dynasty were proud to be Ru Taisu. The supervisors used Ru Taisu to motivate themselves. How is this?

Trust me! You must do your job well, punish a few more corrupt officials, and bring peace to the world!

??

"Sir, this is my late husband's account book. Please keep it. My late husband died unjustly! Please make the decision." Li Xu, the deceased wife of Li Feng, the former magistrate of Xuanhua County, Nanning Prefecture, gave Chen Bangyan the medicine with red eyes.

A gift.

Li Feng was once a confidant of Qiu Ziqi. He was ordered by Zhu Hengjia to interrogate the three-law division for the case of changing the death row prisoner at the execution site. Qiu Ziqi was afraid that Li Feng would confess him, so he silenced Li Feng. When Chen Bangyan learned about this, he immediately used Li Feng's family as a breakthrough point.
Opening the account books kept by Li Feng during his lifetime, he can clearly remember when and where he gave gifts to Qiu Ziqi and the amount. What’s even better is that some bribes given to Qiu Ziqi by other officials were also recorded.

Chen Bangyan was overjoyed after reading the account books, and invited officials such as the chief bookkeeper and historian of Xuanhua County, the chief bookkeeper of Yongfu County, and the magistrate of Longhua County to have tea.

The rope around Qiu Ziqi's neck is getting tighter and tighter.

??

"Mr. Tang, Chen Bangyan doesn't give you any face. He is going to kill me! How can you teach me, sir?" Qiu Ziqi asked his secret friend Tang Miaocai for advice.

"Sir, the rabbit is anxious and knows how to bite people. There is nothing to say now. It is time for those heroes and righteous men raised in your house to use force." Tang Miaocai said unhurriedly.

Qiu Ziqi's family was extremely wealthy, and he had dozens of dead men guarding his home and nursing home. There were many thieves and bandits among these people.

"Well, I'll let someone kill that kid right now and set a fire again, pretending to be a fire." Qiu Ziqi said viciously.

There is God's will in the dark! Qiu Ziqi has been in Nanning for many years, and the public is too angry. Several desperadoes in his house went to a restaurant to have a drink and accidentally leaked the matter. The owner of the restaurant knew that Chen Bangyan was a good official, so he secretly gave Chen Bangyan

Sent the letter.

Chen Bangyan was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat after learning about it, and immediately fled Nanning with his men and evidence.

After leaving Nanning, Chen Bangyan immediately went to Zhu Hengjia and impeached Qiu Ziqi on more than 30 counts of corruption, perversion of the law, and disregard of human life. Zhu Hengjia was furious after the review, and ordered the generals Qiu Ziqi, Tang Miaocai, and others to interrogate him for questioning.

After hearing the charges, he beheaded Zi Qi in public and ransacked his house. He actually got more than 800,000 taels of silver! Zhu Hengjia exclaimed: "In three years of purging the magistrate's office, I have received 100,000 snowflakes of silver. The ancients were sincere and I will not deceive them." He smiled at Zheng Feng again.

Said: "You are right, what a big fat pig!"

??

After Qiu Ziqi was punished, the official circles of Guangdong and Guangxi were shaken, and the atmosphere became solemn.

Yuan Mingzhang, the prefect of Pingle, was restless, and his food and drink were not good. For no other reason, "Bao Bao Gong" Chen Bangyan came to Pingle Mansion.

He knew what he was doing. Mr. Yuan didn't do anything else. He just took advantage of Zhu Hengjia's support from officials and gentry to make two fish scale books. One was for the court to collect taxes, and the other was for himself.

The private taxes collected. Mr. Yuan concealed one million acres of fertile land and did not report it, and successfully put himself and dozens of his wives and concubines on the road to wealth.

The problem is that the land is there and can't be escaped. Chen Bangyan, that bitch official, actually led his people to measure the land one acre. But in the Weeping Temple case, he acted too harshly and chopped off the heads of thirteen gentry in one go, offending the generals.

The gentry in Yuefu cooperated very well with Chen Bangyan in inventorying the fields.

Yuan Mingzhang knew that he was doomed this time, so he drank all day long to drown his sorrows. Under tremendous mental pressure, Yuan Mingzhang decided to sacrifice himself to save his family. He wrote a "Repentance Essay" to Zhu Hengjia, which was sincere and filled with tears.

, he explained clearly how much he had embezzled and how he had embezzled. Finally, he asked Zhu Hengjia to only pursue him alone and be lenient to his family.

When a person is about to die, his words are also kind. When a bird is about to die, its song is also sad. After reading Yuan Mingzhang's "Repentance", Zhu Hengjia suddenly became suspicious. Leniency should be given to those who confess, but strict if they resist. This Yuan Mingzhang and

Qiu Ziqi was different, he had always been submissive; and in the Weeping Temple case, the thirteen heads chopped off were a great help to him, at least the government and gentry were able to carry out the unified payment of grain smoothly.

Zhu Hengjia ordered Yuan Mingzhang to be dismissed from his post and sent to Qiongzhou, and his family would not pursue him. He knew that Yuan Mingzhang had many wives and concubines, so he left 300 acres of land and 3,000 taels of silver to the Yuan family. The rest of his property was confiscated, and he actually got another 500,000 taels of silver.<

/p>

Yuan Mingzhang was so moved that he shouted during the march: "The sage who oversees the country!"

??

Pig killing operations are also in full swing in Guangdong and Annan provinces.

Li Ruyue punished one fellow magistrate, sentenced two people, and seven county magistrates in Guangdong??

Chen Zizhuang punished two generals and five county magistrates in Annan??

The anti-corruption campaign against various health stations has also achieved great results. Yu Chaoxiang, the left minister of the Ministry of War, personally led a team and Fan Zhongtao, the censor of the Superintendent's Office on the right, to investigate the farming affairs of various health stations in the past thirty years. Seven people with the history of military command were punished.

, recover 1.5 million acres of embezzled military land.

Reviewing past virtuous countries and families,

Success comes from diligence and frugality, failure comes from luxury.

Why need amber as a pillow?

How can it be that a pearl is just a car?

You will never see a Qinghai horse when you are far away,

It’s hard to pull out the Shushan snake.

Several people have previewed Nan Xun's song,

Cangwu cries luxury forever.
