Gao Yanei? Punishment? These eight poles cannot be beaten together. Everyone was confused and curious, and all their eyes were focused on the door.
After a while, a soldier came up leading a pig.
"pig?"
When everyone saw it, they were all stunned.
Qin Hui smiled kindly and said: "This sow is just one of the torture instruments. There is another torture instrument called Bald Chicken San."
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed greatly. Qin Hui glanced at it and said to himself, the reputation of the fourth young master in the capital is indeed well-deserved! Hehe said: "It seems that everyone already knows what this bald chicken is, so I won't introduce it more.
The punishment is very simple. It is to let those criminals who are unwilling to confess eat chicken powder first, and then be locked up with this sow to see what happens next. It is very simple."
When everyone heard this, their faces turned blue with fright, their hairs stood on end, and some of them trembled all over. This was so sinister, and it was ten thousand times more terrifying than the pain of flesh and blood!
Next to them, Chen Dong and Ouyang Che looked at each other with incredulous expressions on their faces. At the same time, they shook their heads helplessly. This kind of punishment was too inhumane, but they all knew that Qin Hui was just deliberately scaring the bandit. How could the court allow this?
There is such a kind of immoral punishment.
After Gao Yanei and Hong Tianjiu returned from Tangyin, their "glorious" deeds quickly spread, especially the disgusting thing that came out of Hong Tianjiu's mouth. Qin Hui was also there
I heard it at that time. After all, he is also a scholar, so he is naturally opposed to this kind of thing. However, now he is really racing against time. He has no time to stay even for a second, and must make a quick decision. Therefore,
In order to complete the task, he didn't care about so much. Whatever was useful, he would use it. He knew very well that the people would only remember how he calculated and eliminated corrupt officials, and no one would care about such details.
After Wan Sandao heard this, his face turned pale. He was not as calm as before. He was not a good person. How could he not know what this Bald Chicken Powder was and eat it alone? Then he was locked up with a sow.
Together, what will happen? Thinking of this, he was already trembling with fear, and his eyes were full of endless fear. How could he dare to continue thinking about it? If so, he would really rather die! Not to mention one death, hundreds of deaths.
OK, as long as you are not punished by the Gao family. He shouted anxiously: "As a Beijing official, how can you do this? You are abusing lynching. I don't accept it. I don't accept it."
"Nonsense!"
Ye Tiannan suddenly stood up and said: "Why have I never heard of this kind of punishment before, and this kind of punishment is too - too -." He didn't even know what adjectives to use to describe this punishment. It can be seen from this that,
This punishment is so horrific.
At first, Ximen Clan and Magistrate Tangyin were both ruthless characters. But after trying it once, they were immediately fooled by the game. One can imagine its power.
"About this. I have made it very clear just now. If Ye Zhizhou doesn't believe it, he can report it to the emperor. Now please sit down." Qin Hui waved his hand and said calmly: "Come here, drag the criminal into the pig pen.
Go and start the execution."
Wan Sandao was completely panicked now. His eyes were fixed on Sun Zhixian of Huaiyin County. When he saw him, he was so frightened that he almost shrank his head into his stomach. His face became extremely ferocious and he shouted loudly: "Wait a minute!"
He struggled hard and glared at Magistrate Sun and said: "Okay, since you refuse to save me, don't blame me for being ruthless. Sir, I will attack you, I will attack you, please spare this little guy's life!"
Qin Hui waved his hand again, and the soldier immediately took the sow down and said, "If you confess truthfully, I will deal with you as appropriate."
Wan Sandao first confessed to his crime of robbery, and then said: "Your Majesty, I know that this villain was originally a regiment trainer in Huaiyin County. It was Sun Zhixian who ordered me to become a bandit and help him rob the businessmen who passed by.
He is the mastermind behind making money for him."
After Chen Dong and Ouyang Che heard this, they were shocked. Is this still an official? This is worse than a robber. No matter what kind of punishment is used on this kind of people, I believe it will not be exaggerated.
"You are talking nonsense. How dare you slander me? Come here and torture me." The Sun Magistrate jumped up and shouted.
boom!
Qin Hui knocked on the wooden door and said, "Come here, let Sun Zhixian be quiet."
"As commanded."
A soldier behind him put a big knife on Sun Zhixian's neck, which almost scared Sun Zhixian so much that he wet his pants, and he didn't dare to say anything.
Wansandao stabbed out Shanyang County Magistrate, Huaiyin County Lord Bo and other officials, large and small, one after another, a total of about 20 people.
Qin Hui looked calm and nodded slightly, but did not rush to pronounce the verdict and remained silent.
The more silent he is, the more panicked the people below him become.
At this time, several more soldiers suddenly walked in and said, "Sir, this is the time for the confessions of the other leaders."
It turns out that Qin Hui had already ordered these leaders to be tried separately. The purpose was to ensure that no good official would be killed indiscriminately and no corrupt official would be spared. This was the fastest and most effective way.
"Submit."
"yes."
Qin Hui took the confessions and looked at them carefully. When he saw that they were the same as what Wansandao said, he felt relieved, nodded, and glanced left and right: "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Sir, this is unfair!"
Those people cried out in a hurry.
"Unjustly? The evidence is overwhelming, but you still want to make excuses. As officials of our Song Dynasty, you actually know the law and break the law, and your crime is increased. And even at such a time, you still don't repent. It is an unpardonable crime. Come on.
Ah, bring all the evidence."
"yes."
I saw several soldiers walking in carrying several large boxes.
Qin Hui sneered: "Zhixian Sun, you must be familiar with this box. Open it."
Bang bang bang bang.
But I saw that the box was full of gold and silver treasures.
Qin Hui smiled and said, "Don't tell me that the salary of a small county magistrate like me is higher than that of an inspector like me. What else do you have to say?"
Magistrate Sun swayed and fainted.
Qin Hui ignored him and said to the others: "Should you recruit me now, or wait until I order people to raid your house?"
"Sir, please spare my life...!"
Those who were named by Wansandao were so frightened that they peeed and quickly lay on the ground begging for mercy.
Qin Hui sneered, handed the paper to the guard at the side, and said: "Catch all the people who haven't arrived."
"As commanded."
Just when Qin Hui was about to pronounce the sentence, a soldier ran over and shouted: "Master Qin, Master Qin, hurry up for eight hundred miles."
Qin Hui stood up suddenly and said, "Who sent it?"
"It's Bu Shuai."
Could it be that something happened again? Qin Hui's heart trembled, he stretched out his hand and said, "Bring it quickly."
"yes."
Qin Hui took the letter and opened it. The more he read, the more solemn his expression became. However, until he finished reading, he remained silent. He closed the letter and said coldly: "Come here, take these people to the police station."
At the intersection of the street, behead him immediately."
Bang bang bang!
Several people fainted and fell to the ground on the spot.
In this regard, Qin Hui is very similar to Li Qi. They act decisively and never act sloppily. When it comes to human life, Li Qi still has some concerns. Qin Hui has no such concerns. Since he has made a plan long ago, he will implement it
There will be no hesitation at all. Because the officialdom in Jiangnan has formed a system. It is connected with each other. You can know with your buttocks that there must be someone in Sunzhi County. So if you don’t eradicate the roots, Sunzhi County will be very good in the future.
It may come back.
Wansandao said anxiously: "My lord, my lord, you promised to spare my life!"
Qin Hui groaned and said: "When did I agree to you? I just said that I would handle it according to the circumstances. Letting your family live is already my greatest gift to you. Please hold on."
"Wait a minute!"
Ye Tiannan suddenly stood up, his face looked a little ugly, and said: "Inspector Qin, even though their crimes are unpardonable, if they want to be punished with death penalty, I'm afraid you have to be the one to decide?"
"Really?" Qin Hui glanced coldly and said calmly: "Ye Zhizhou, do you know that you are also guilty now and you cannot protect yourself."
Ye Tiannan was shocked and said: "You have just found out that this matter has nothing to do with me, can you still kill Zhongliang in vain?"
Qin Hui sneered and shouted: "Presumptuous. Although you were not involved, you are by no means loyal. At best, you are just a faint official. As the prefect of a state, your subordinates committed such a crime under your nose."
You didn't know anything about this heinous crime. If you weren't derelict in your duties, what was it? Also, I observed carefully in the past few days and found that Magistrate Sun and the others didn't treat you as a magistrate at all, and they didn't even show the most basic respect to you.
You are so weak and incompetent, how can you take on this important responsibility? I advise you to take the blame and leave. Otherwise, when the imperial decree comes, you will at least be sent to the frontier. Now get out of here immediately."
After this reprimand, Ye Tiannan opened his mouth slightly and looked at Qin Hui with anger and fear. However, how could he compare with Qin Hui? In an instant, he seemed to be dozens of years older and walked out in despair.
Qin Hui looked at Ye Nantian's virtue, shook his head, and thought to himself, how could such a person be an official? He glanced at him and said, "What are you doing standing still? Pull them all down."
"As commanded."
"My lord, please spare my life. I have found out my guilt. Please spare my life, my lord!"
...
The soldiers on the left and right immediately dragged out all the corrupt officials.
Qin Hui then smiled at the few people still sitting here and said, "Qin Hui was acting under orders. I apologize for any offense I have offended. You can go back now."
Now Qin Hui is a devil in their eyes. How dare he say anything wrong? He thanked him several times and walked out quickly.
After those people left, Han Shizhong laughed and said: "Okay, okay, these corrupt officials will never be tolerated. Mr. Qin is really sharp and discerning." He also hated evil as much as he hated it.
This is just the beginning. Qin Hui shook his head with a wry smile, and suddenly said seriously: "General Han, it's still the same old rules. You should immediately order people to confiscate the homes of those criminals, divide their property into two parts, and keep one part.
Give one portion to the local government and transport it to Hangzhou. In addition, some of the food stored in their homes will be used for military purposes. Each soldier will receive ten days of rations, and the rest will be distributed to the local people."
From Qin Hui's words, we can see how fast he marched. In fact, he marched all the way south. It can be said that the autumn wind swept away fallen leaves. The speed of the soldiers was vividly reflected in them. Even he felt that the military supplies were very obstructive.
, there are only two thousand cavalry, and there are no food guards. They are all obtained from the families of those corrupt officials and bullies. In this way, they can maximize their speed.
He planned to transport the money to Hangzhou first and hand it over to Zheng Yi for safekeeping. Then he would follow Li Qi's orders and use the money to transform the economy, impact the weak currency market in Jiangnan, and alleviate the currency crisis.
Han Shizhong said blankly: "Ten days of rations? Sir, at our marching speed, we can reach Yangzhou in less than three days, so why do we need ten days of rations?"
Qin Hui sighed: "The situation has changed. We have to rush to the Huainan Granary in Shouzhou immediately."
"ah?"
Ouyang Che said: "Is it related to the economic envoy?"
Qin Hui nodded and said: "There is something going on over there, sir, and it must be resolved as soon as possible."
Chen Dong suddenly said: "But sir, we have made a plan a long time ago. We should rush to Yangzhou before the news reaches Yangzhou. If not, the corrupt officials in Yangzhou will definitely run away after hearing the news. It will be difficult to arrest them then.
It’s difficult.”
Qin Hui frowned slightly and said: "Chen Dong, you must first understand that you are here only because of your grace. As long as you are here, we will have no worries. Once something happens to you, you and I will not be spared. Didn't you tell me
If you want to ask for orders for the people, you must first have this qualification, so your Lord's business is my top priority."
As he spoke, he ignored Chen Dong and immediately ordered: "General Han, the matter is urgent. You should take a thousand men and horses to Shouzhou immediately and control all the people who transported relief food to Fengxiang Mansion last year.
Come on, don't miss even a boatman. Anyone who blocks his path will be killed without mercy. I will rush there tonight after I have dealt with the matter here. Chen Dong, Ouyang, you two should stay here to deal with the aftermath as before.
