Qin Yu smiled calmly, "So, Governor Lin has figured it out?"
Lin Ruozhou shook his head helplessly, "On the left is the crime of treason against the nine clans, and on the right is the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. Does the guilty minister have any choice?"
As he said that, he looked at Qin Yu and asked: "I just don't know, does the prince-in-law's words count? If the guilty minister really cooperates, can the prince-in-law forgive the guilty minister for killing the nine tribes?"
"certainly."
Qin Yu nodded slightly, and Feng Qingyun said calmly: "I am the most reasonable person. I will be lenient if I confess, and strict if I resist. Life or death, big or small, are all in your own hands."
Lin Ruozhou listened without any hesitation, knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "The guilty Lin Ruozhou is willing to plead guilty, and I hope that the consort and the prince can give the guilty a chance to make meritorious service."
Qin Yu said calmly: "Commander Lin, please stand up. As long as you cooperate honestly, I will protect your life."
Lin Ruozhou stood up, respectfully took out the military talisman from his arms, and handed it to Qin Yu with both hands, "The Hebei military talisman is here. Please return it to the court."
Nowadays, the imperial court has no backer, its right-hand man was beheaded by Qin Yu, and the front hall is filled with witnesses and evidence.
Lin Ruozhou knew that there was really no point in resisting any longer.
Since Qin Yu promised to give him a chance to make meritorious service, he naturally wanted to take out the military talisman and use it as a testimonial.
Qin Yu took the military talisman and nodded with satisfaction, "Captain Lin, those who understand current affairs are heroes. I hope you can cherish this opportunity."
Lin Ruozhou bowed deeply and said, "The guilty minister accepts your order."
Qin Yu said nothing and waved his hand, "Let's go."
Afterwards, Qin Yu led Xiao Nan, Shen Binglan and a group of royal guards out of the front hall and out of the mansion.
Walk outside the hall.
Xiao Nan looked at Qin Yu with a puzzled look on his face, "Brother-in-law, I...are we just leaving like this? Why don't we tell that guy Lin Ruozhou anymore? He won't run away, will he?"
Qin Yu smiled calmly, "The huge Lin family is here, where is he going? Now that he has no use value, who is willing to take him in? And only if we don't arrange things for him, will he know what to do
What's up."
"Although Lin Ruozhou is a corrupt official, he is still the governor of Hebei, and he still has abilities."
Xiao Nan asked again: "Brother-in-law, what about other corrupt officials, should we arrest them or not?"
Qin Yu pondered: "If all the officials in Pingcheng are arrested, how will the land reform in various counties be promoted? How will the county magistrates conduct a thorough investigation? We can arrest all these people directly."
"However, what do you think we should choose between arresting them all or allowing them to help us complete the purge of officialdom as quickly as possible, land reform and the promotion of the new tax law "Dividing a small person into an acre"?"
Xiao Nan suddenly realized, "I understand, this...is this what my brother-in-law has always said, the world is not about fighting and killing, the world is about human relations..."
Listen to Qin Yu's words.
Even Shen Binglan on the side called him an expert.
Qin Yu first fought against these corrupt officials and reduced their crimes to the serious crime of treason and killing the nine tribes, and then gave them the opportunity to make meritorious deeds and let them help him complete political reforms.
After the political reform is completed, these corrupt officials will be thrown into prison.
This hand is really fancy!
These corrupt officials' methods are not considered a loss in front of Qin Yu.
Shen Binglan originally thought that this trip to Hebei would be very difficult and would inevitably involve a lot of overt and covert fighting.
Unexpectedly, Qin Yu directly took advantage of Lin Ruozhou.
Today, Lin Ruozhou took out all the military talismans, which showed that he had accepted his fate.
Inside the hall.
Lin Ruozhou turned around and looked at Qin Yu's leaving figure, and couldn't help but tremble in her heart.
He felt that he had already looked up to Qin Yu very highly, but unexpectedly he still underestimated Qin Yu's ability and character.
Lin Ruozhou really didn't expect that Qin Yu saw that he had confessed and actively cooperated. After handing over the military talisman, Qin Yu turned around and left without saying a word.
But the more this happened, the more difficult it felt for Lin Ruozhou.
Because he was committing meritorious deeds, he had to satisfy Qin Yu, but Qin Yu did not assign specific tasks to him, making it clear that it was up to him to perform on his own.
"well......"
Lin Ruozhou sighed and walked around the hall, looking up at the roof with a sad look on his face.
He could never understand how things had reached this point in just half a month.
at the same time.
The housekeeper came from outside the hall, and was very confused that Qin Yu and the others came so menacingly but suddenly left.
He thought Lin Ruozhou would be captured by Qin Yu.
"Master, are you...are you okay..."
The housekeeper looked at Lin Ruozhou and asked hesitantly.
Lin Ruozhou waved her hand and said calmly: "It's okay."
After saying that, he added: "Go and send someone to call all the officials in the city. I have something important to tell them."
"Yes, Grand Governor." The butler saluted and then left the front hall.
Now Lin Ruozhou has no choice but to accept his fate and help Qin Yu complete the political reform in Hebei to protect the Lin family and protect himself from death.
...
The next day.
Noon.
Pingcheng, mansion.
Qin Yu and Xiao Nanzheng led a group of royal guards to roast a whole lamb in the courtyard.
Zhao Long, the commander of Jinyiwei, took the military talisman to take over the military power of the Hebei army.
Wang Juncai, the commander of Jinyiwei, sent the news back to Jinling City, asking the court to send officials to Hebei as soon as possible, and the political reform was about to begin in an all-round way.
Qin Yu was lying on a rocking chair drinking tea, with a maid squeezing his legs beside the rocking chair.
Shen Binglan was sitting on the roof blowing the wind.
Xiao Nan was roasting a whole lamb on the side, and said to several Jinyi guards: "Roasting a whole lamb is a technical job. The most important thing is to master the heat."
"Hey! You must add more cumin powder, my brother-in-law loves cumin the most..."
Xiao Nan was so busy that he was sweating profusely and was very happy.
The Jin Yiwei on the side looked very speechless.
They looked at Qin Yu, who was swaying in a rocking chair, enjoying a massage, and then at Xiao Nan, who was smoky and sweating profusely from work, and was very ashamed.
For a moment, they couldn't tell who was the prince consort and who was the prince.
When it comes to being a prince-in-law, Qin Yu can be regarded as the first person throughout the ages.
But this is understandable, after all, the Prince Consort not only has meritorious service, he saved Da Wei, and saved Da Wei more than once.
Xiao Nan was originally a sentimental person, and Qin Yu treated him well and was as close to him as a brother.
The better Qin Yu treats him, Xiao Nan wants to treat Qin Yu better, so the two of them are really as close as brothers now.
at the same time.
Li Su hurried from outside the mansion, walked to Qin Yu's side, and said in a low voice: "Prince-in-law, please leave Pingcheng. Sima, Liucao and other officials are here to see you."
