Then the boxes of belongings were loaded onto the carriage. According to Zhao Yun's instructions in advance, Gao Shi and Xia Gui took the carriage and fought around Lin'an City several times, so that the people could see how Shi Miyuan ignored the law and was greedy.
Adult.
Sure enough, when the people saw it, they were all shocked. They did not expect that just Shi Miyuan's family would be confiscated with as much property as a mountain, but they did not even have Mao at home. Who would not be angry at this comparison.
The people yelled and cursed at the corrupt officials like Shi Miyuan.
As for Zhao Yun, the people expressed their support and hoped that Zhao Yun would arrest all corrupt officials.
"The officials hate evil as much as they hate their enemies. My son is still working as an official in the Ministry of Civil Affairs. I have to go back and tell him to abide by the law. Don't let him be found out one day."
"My son-in-law is also on duty at the Yamen, and I have to go there, so I don't want to delay my daughter."
The people were indignant, and the shock was considerable. Many people whose families had servants in the ministry were afraid that they would be raided one day, so they went back to warn them.
Then Gao Shi and Xia Gui continued to search the residences of Liang Chengda, Li Zhixiao, Hu Jie and others one by one.
But they had so much property that until dark, there were still three households that had not been searched, so they had to wait until tomorrow.
Funing Hall.
Gao Shi and Xia Gui are reporting today's inspection results to Zhao Yun.
Gao Shi said excitedly: "Your Majesty, today we have confiscated 273 boxes of calligraphy, painting and antiques, 28 boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, 1.53 million copper coins, and other valuable furniture piled as high as a mountain."
The most valuable of these things are undoubtedly the calligraphy, painting, antiques, and gold and silver jewelry. If converted, it is estimated to be at least 10 million yuan or more.
After hearing this, Zhao Yun was not happy, but rather sad.
With so much money confiscated in just one day, one can only imagine how corrupt the officialdom of the Song Dynasty was.
Zhao Yun said: "It was done well, but this copper coin is not enough. If you work harder, I will copy it from other houses tonight and make up the amount so that it can be sent to Sichuan as soon as possible."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Xia Gui, Gao Shi and others raised their hands to accept the order, and then went to make arrangements again without taking a rest.
Nie Zishu's mansion was brightly lit at this time, and hundreds of people were coming and going in his house, counting and packing valuable items.
Faced with such a large amount of money, it would be a lie if you said that no one is interested, but everyone knows that Zhao Yun attaches great importance to this property raid. In addition, Xia Gui and Gao Shi are strict with their duties, so no one dares to reach out.
Finally, with all kinds of efforts, after dawn, Xia You, together with two thousand elites, thousands of civilians, and people from the transportation department, successfully escorted two million yuan of money out of Lin'an and headed for Sichuan.
However, although the Sichuan-Sichuan army salary was solved, the problems it caused were only the beginning.
There is no trace of two million dollars. If this kind of thing is not investigated clearly, this loophole is not plugged, and the mastermind behind it is not found out, God knows what will happen in the future.
On December 5, the 17th year of Jiading, hundreds of officials gathered in Chui Gong Hall to pay homage to the king.
Zhao Yun's face was as dark as water. Zhu Zhu, the Minister of Punishment, stood up first and said: "Your Majesty, Shi Miyuan's party has conspired to commit rebellion. This case has been irrefutable. The file is here. I would like to close the case and ask Your Majesty to make a decision."
A small yellow doorman came forward to take the file and gave it to Gao Shi above, who then respectfully handed it over to Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun took a look at the file and the corresponding criminal laws involved.
According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, the biggest crime of Shi Miyuan's party was not corruption and bribery, but the most serious and serious conspiracy. This is not a crime of the same level at all. All the people involved in the case should be executed, and the whole family will be punished without leaving a single person alive.
Zhao Yun fell into silence. The lives of thousands of people, old and young, depended on Zhao Yun's thoughts!
All the officials in the court were also in dead silence, no one dared to speak, and the air seemed to have stopped flowing at this moment.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Yun said: "Shi Miyuan's party conspired to commit rebellion. The chief culprit will be punished. Everyone involved in the case will be killed. However, family members will not be killed. If any of the close relatives who rebel against the party are officials, they will be removed. Those with academic qualifications will be deprived of their status. Three generations of
You are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination. This case is over and the ministers' families are not allowed to discuss it any further."
Zheng Qingzhi raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty's kindness is the blessing of the common people."
"Your Majesty's kindness is the blessing of all people."
All the officials raised their hands and praised Zhao Yun, speaking from the bottom of their hearts.
This matter should be discussed in detail, and the officials reported some more matters, and Zhao Yun took over them one by one.
When no one came to report, Zhao Yun said, "Aren't you going to tell me about the disappearance of two million soldiers' pay from Sichuan and Sichuan?"
When all the officials heard this, their faces became tense again, for fear that they would be involved.
As the Prime Minister of the Left, Zheng Qingzhi was the Independent Prime Minister before Cui Yu, the Prime Minister of the Right, arrived in Beijing. His status was comparable to that of Shi Miyuan before. Others could keep quiet about such matters, but he could not avoid it.
Zheng Qingzhi stood up, raised his hand, and replied carefully: "Your Majesty, the amount of this matter is too large, there must be many people involved, and senior officials of the ministry must be involved. Otherwise, no one can do it. I think this happened when Shi Miyuan was in power.
When in power, without their consent, others will never be able to do anything."
"I agree that this matter must be done by Shi Miyuan's party."
"I second the proposal.",,,
Zhao Yun's expression dropped, and he turned to look at Zhu Zhu and said, "Zhu Qing's family, you are interrogating Shi Miyuan's party. Why is there no record of this matter in the file?"
Zhu Zhu raised his hand and replied: "Your Majesty, I also interrogated Shi Miyuan and his accomplices about this matter, but found nothing, so the case was not recorded in the file."
Zheng Qingzhi really wanted to kick Zhu Zhu to death at this time. Do you think you will die if you add a few words to the file?
Anyway, Shi Miyuan and his party are bound to die. One more crime is not a big deal, and one less crime is not a lot. By putting the blame on them, everyone will be saved one less trouble.
Zheng Qingzhi had cold sweat on his forehead and had to say: "Your Majesty, I will personally investigate this matter and get to the bottom of the case."
"Well, that's good. I can rest assured that Zheng Qing's family is doing things."
After saying that, Zhao Yun announced his resignation from the court and left Chui Gong Hall.
The courtiers left the hall in twos and threes. Zheng Qingzhi looked worried, obviously troubled by the missing military pay.
In desperation, Zheng Qingzhi came to the Penal Department Prison again and went directly to see Shi Miyuan.
The cell where Shi Miyuan was imprisoned was a single room, very clean, with a bed, a desk, a toilet, and a quilt. It looked better than an average person's home, but at this time, Shi Miyuan looked muddled, as if he was old.
Silly.
A frustrated person has no fighting spirit, no hope, and his heart is filled with despair. This is what Shi Miyuan was like at this time.
Zheng Qingzhi walked in, raised his hand and said politely: "Ms. Shi, are you okay?" This chapter has been completed!
