Wang Can looked at Mo Youqi who was kneeling on the ground, but the expression on his face was extremely cold.
An official like Mo Youqi is in vain to be an official for his parents.
He is not worthy of being a county magistrate.
Wang Can said calmly: "How can a person like you have a chance to change his ways? If I hadn't been here, Zhang Laosan would have been forced to death by you. I'm afraid there were more than one or two people before Zhang Laosan.
The people are being punished by you. Your sin is unforgivable!"
brush!
A look of pain flashed across Mo Youqi's face.
He doesn't want to die!
He lived a happy life, with maids taking care of him at home, no worries about food and clothing, and good food and clothing. He was not willing to give up such a good life, so Mo Youqi raised his head and looked at the person standing in front of him
Wang Can begged again: "National Master, please spare my life!"
He didn't want to die, so he could only plead.
Because Wang Can is too strong.
In front of Wang Can, his little strength is simply not enough.
Wang Can snorted, raised his hand, pointed it into a sword, and pointed with one finger. The extremely sharp Gang Qi directly pierced Mo Youqi's brow and pierced Mo Youqi's head.
"puff!"
Blood splattered and Mo Youqi trembled.
His body immediately fell back to the ground, without any breath left.
Wang Can's eyes turned and fell on Liu Yi. When Liu Yi saw Wang Can, he was so frightened that he shuddered and said quickly: "Master, I don't want to compensate you. I won't pay for the lent food."
No more."
After saying that, he walked out.
Wang Can did not stop Liu Yi from leaving. The reason was very simple. Although Liu Yi was a businessman and even took the opportunity to drive up prices, Liu Yi was not guilty of death. The biggest problem was Mo Youqi. Everything was wrong.
It was Mo Youqi's fault.
After Wang Can let Liu Yi leave, he walked straight to the lobby and sat down. At this time, Zhang Laosan had already stepped back and stood at the door outside the lobby, because there were still many people around here.
These people are still waiting and watching.
I want to see how things will evolve.
Wang Can ordered: "Come, summon the county magistrate, county lieutenant, chief registrar, and county government officials. Let everyone come into the hall. I will give you a lecture."
"yes!"
The county government officials immediately went to deliver the order.
At this time, the news of the arrival of Imperial Master Wang Can had spread quickly. So much so that the entire county government was filled with an atmosphere of panic because Wang Can had killed Mo Youqi.
The county magistrate, the county lieutenant and the chief registrar, as well as the various officials of the county government, all entered.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Can.
There was an uneasy look in their eyes.
Because I was worried about being dealt with by Wang Can.
Wang Can looked around at the crowd and said calmly: "When you entered the hall, you all saw the dead Mo Youqi. Mo Youqi colluded with businessmen and was even more greedy and should be executed. Therefore, I have executed Mo Youqi."
"You have already seen Mo Youqi's fate."
"However, I only kill the chief culprit."
"As long as you are involved and have violated laws and disciplines, now take the initiative to confess your sins and admit the mistakes you have made. Then, I can let go of the past and not pursue the mistakes you have committed."
Wang Can said: "But if you don't stand up now, when I find out, I will kill you without mercy. Now is your chance, your chance to atone for your sins."
boom!!
When everyone heard this, their faces showed shock.
This is to make them confess their guilt.
However, there was hesitation on the faces of these people, because under the current circumstances, if what Wang Can said was true, there would be no problem in standing up and confessing. But if what Wang Can said was false, then standing up and confessing would be tantamount to
It's courting death.
Wang Can looked at the people talking and said calmly: "Why, no one is willing to stand up?"
Everyone immediately fell silent.
Everyone looked at each other, hesitating, waiting for someone to stand up first.
However, no one was the first to stand up.
Because these assistant officials in the county government are all old-fashioned, they have seen too many intrigues. Therefore, under the current situation, all of them are hesitant and unwilling to stand up.
Wang Can said: "Since you are not willing to speak, I will follow Mo Youqi's example and deal with you in a domineering manner. If you are not willing to speak, then you can all die."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Can made a move to prepare for action.
"Master, please wait!"
At this moment, the county captain stepped forward. He knelt down on the ground, knocked his head on the ground, and shouted: "Master, this villain accepted bribes, embezzled money, and also accepted Mo Youqi's
Win over. The villain is guilty and I beg the Imperial Master to punish him."
Wang Can said calmly: "You have to think about it carefully, but there are other crimes that have not been made clear. Now that they are made clear, I don't care. But if it is found out later that there are more, then don't blame me.
We will kill them all."
"Yes Yes!"
The county lieutenant nodded hurriedly and said: "National Master, everything the villain said is true. In addition to accepting bribes, the villain also acted as a collaborator, obeying Mo Youqi's orders, and coerced the grain merchants who were unwilling to obey the orders, and asked them to
Selling food is not allowed. It will drive up prices in Zitong County."
While talking, the county captain said other things.
After Wang Can heard this, he said: "You are guilty, but the crime will not lead to death, especially if you are an accessory. Therefore, if you pay the money for forgiveness, I will allow you to withdraw from the officialdom safely and become an ordinary citizen."
"Thank you, Imperial Master!"
The county captain's face showed a look of relief.
He was really worried about being killed.
Now he has truthfully confessed his crime and was able to escape safely. Although he has lost his position as county captain, at least he has survived. This is the greatest relief.
As soon as the county lieutenant opened his mouth, he was forgiven by Wang Can. For a while, the county magistrate, the chief registrar and others all opened their mouths and explained their crimes one after another. These people had committed many crimes, especially those who had not accepted the punishment.
The benefit of less.
Wang Can followed the previous treatment plan and asked these people to pay atonement money, which was also the same as removing them from official positions.
The promise was still fulfilled.
But when Wang Can looked around, the expression on his face became more and more serious. Because almost all the officials in Zitong County had problems.
However, the head of the Zitong County Facao was left.
The Facao of Zitong County was named Yang Dali.
Wang Can's eyes fell on Yang Dali and said, "What about you? What do you have to say?"
Yang Dali stood up and said: "Master, I, Yang Dali, am the head of the Fa Cao in Zitong County. During my tenure as the Fa Cao, I have never accepted bribes, never been complicit, and have never participated in any price hikes."
Wang Can raised his eyebrows and said: "This is just a little green among thousands of flowers. The officialdom of Zitong County is completely rotten. You can still support it. Speaking of which, I am very curious about how you can not blend in.
, but it can protect itself. You know, it is not easy to protect yourself from blending in. It is impossible for clear water to be clear in a ball of pitch-black ink."
Yang Dali said sternly: "Reporting to the Imperial Master, my family is a century-old family in Zitong County. Even though the family's strength is not as strong as the Mo family where the county magistrate is located, it is not much weaker."
Wang Can said: "You are from a noble family and can stick to your heart. You are good."
Yang Dali was neither humble nor arrogant and said: "The Imperial Master is ridiculous. What's more, who is from a noble family? He just has a few books at home and can pass down poems to his family."
Wang Can leaned forward slightly and said in a deep voice: "Now that the county magistrate of Zitong County has been lost, in addition, the county captain, county magistrate, etc., and even the heads of various Cao Cao are vacant. If I let you serve as the county magistrate,
Are you sure of stabilizing the situation?"
"have!"
Yang Dali said sternly: "National Master, it is actually not difficult to govern Zitong County. Because although Zitong County is dominated by Mo Youqi and others, in fact, there are many talents among the various Cao Cao. These people
, I have never joined the trend, I just stick to myself and do my job well."
Wang Can said: "Tell me and listen!"
Yang Dali said: "For example, Yuan Zhenghong, a small official in Hucao, is extremely capable. However, he does not join in the evil deeds, so he understands things about Hucao very well. Because of many things, he is the one who
He was in charge, so he was not dealt with. In addition to Yuan Zhenghong of Hucao, there were also Jiang Yong, Liu Li and others of Bingcao, all of whom were quite talented."
Wang Can's face showed an expression of approval, but he said: "You must think carefully. These people really have no problems and are even talented."
"yes!"
Yang Dali held his head high and said loudly: "I can use my head as a guarantee. If what I say is not true, if there is a problem with these people, I am willing to take responsibility."
"Okay, be responsible!"
Wang Can nodded and ordered: "Yang Dali obeys the order!"
"exist!"
Yang Dali cupped his fists and answered.
Wang Can said: "I have ordered you to temporarily assume the post of magistrate of Zitong County. After I return to Luoyang, I will pass an order from the Ministry of Personnel and formally issue an imperial edict for you to serve as magistrate of Zitong County."
"Thank you, Imperial Master!"
Yang Dali knocked his head on the ground and said, "I will definitely live up to the high expectations of the Imperial Master."
Wang Can said: "Today's Zitong County is completely rotten. So I hope that after you take office, you can bring order to the chaos and reorganize the official style. I will pay attention to Zitong County."
Yang Dali said: "Please rest assured, Imperial Master, I will definitely complete the task."
Wang Can looked at the original county magistrate, county lieutenant and others, and said in a deep voice: "Yang Dali, these people who have been dismissed from official positions, you have to urge them to pay their money. In addition, do you have confidence that you can stabilize your position?"
Situation. Do you know the situation I mentioned?"
The so-called situation is actually the county captain and others.
Because these people are prone to counterattack.
Yang Dali said sternly: "National Master, this group of people is not worth mentioning. Such a group of people have a way of squeezing the people, but in fact, they only rely on the majesty of the imperial court. Without this, they are not worth mentioning at all. So please
Rest assured, Imperial Master, I will definitely complete my mission."
