I can see the book of life and death
Chapter 68: The Wind Rises
"Is there an underground channel in the river?"
Zhang Mingtu was very moved when he saw it.
Unexpectedly, it was just an ordinary chivalrous act, but it turned out that there was such a big secret hidden in the river.
Even a little negligence along the way may lead to big problems.
If you are not careful, you may die directly.
It can cause so many people to share the same hatred and take action together. It is thought that the interests involved are very scary.
Zhang Mingtu secretly calmed down the violent emotional fluctuations in his heart and continued to read.
…
The fog is a fog after all. I only found some sporadic feces in the river. After analysis by my colleagues, I determined that it should be the feces of monsters.
Well, what is left after the monster eats people and digests them.
Combining some of the information I knew before, the monsters in the river should be fed by someone.
Some people have reached an agreement with them, and regularly, people who are seriously ill or who fall into the water will be fed nearby after they die.
This is just my guess. Without evidence, there is no way to convict anyone.
But when I went deep into the underground rivers, I only left behind a incomplete map of the underground rivers. I left no memory of the deeper places.
Most things in the world may not have an outcome.
No one cared about this matter, and Jianyi was still singing and dancing.
Among the official channels, another incident caused a sensation in the entire Jiangnan West Road, or in other words, caused a huge shock in the Longxing Prefecture area.
The first Tiewa I knew in Daxia handed over the memorial.
The memorial made a clear picture of the situation of the wealthy gentry and wealthy businessmen in Xingguo County.
In a certain month of a certain year, a certain person turned five families of good people into long-term workers.
In a certain month of a certain year, the local grain merchants, together with the people in charge of the grain depots in the county government, took out the grains from the grain depots when the price of grains rose and sold them at high prices.
When grain prices dropped, grains were purchased at low prices and some inferior grains were refilled into grain depots.
Well, when will food prices rise?
When a flood occurs!
Officials should open warehouses to release grain, but local authorities report major disasters as minor disasters, and minor disasters are usually not reported.
As a result, the situation above was completely unclear. When food prices soared, many good local people were forced to sell their ancestral property, and poor families sold their sons and daughters.
The local gentry and wealthy households were not affected at all and instead made a huge fortune.
And when are food prices low?
Well, it’s the time of harvest.
Many wealthy gentry teamed up to lower prices, making food cheap.
This kind of situation is common in all parts of Jiangnan, but Ruihai actually dared to write all these situations into a memorial and report it to the emperor.
But what Ruihai did before that was amazing.
After enough evidence has been collected.
Rui Hai didn't know where he got the army transfer order, and transferred a group of elite government troops directly from Longxing.
After various crimes were publicly announced in the local area, the principals in these incidents were arrested one by one.
The trial will be conducted in full accordance with the laws of the day.
There were many people cheering, and Xingguo County was wiped out.
The entire Jiangnan West Road was shaken, and impeachment memorials flew to Kyoto like raindrops.
There are rumors everywhere that Ruihai is inhumane, does not know how to adapt, does not change the past, and kills good people indiscriminately.
All the local wealthy people were caught in one sweep, their homes confiscated and their families exterminated.
I know the specific situation is not like this, but in Jianyi, in areas other than Xingguo County.
There was a discussion in the restaurant. They all said that the county magistrate was too scary and had a thirst for blood. Only by eating the blood of one person a day could he satisfy his blood lust.
In this era, there were no tabloids or public propaganda. There were official ones, but they were not widely used in Jiangnan, and the official reports were too official and not down to earth.
Rumors that can spread widely come from the mouths of proud gentry and wealthy businessmen.
To them, Rui Hai, the magistrate of Xingguo County, was not a good person.
Therefore, there are not many good things in rumors everywhere.
Are the people stupid?
No, they don’t read much and don’t have vision for many things, but it’s not that they don’t want to have vision.
For example, the old man selling charcoal wants to be far-sighted, but if his income is less, he may die of cold and hunger that day. He has already consumed all his energy in seeking food and clothing every day. How can he have time to pursue further and more rewards?
.
Not long after, Jin Yiwei's private channel came down with an investigation document, asking Jin Yiwei from all over the country to investigate the specific situation in Jianyi.
There is such a task every year, no one pays much attention to it, only I feel moved in my heart.
The tasks are a hammer here and there, but there seems to be no point in them.
However, the identities and identities of the many good citizens who became tenants and long-term workers mentioned in my report require investigation and verification, and their current identities are required to be known.
There are also some people who died that year and some murder cases.
The tasks in each place were divided into details and complexities. I made some insinuations and asked some colleagues to piece together the whole picture.
I did a decent job in this matter and provided the report according to the corresponding requirements.
I know that there is a big shot secretly paying attention to the situation in Jianyi Land.
One month after Thunder Strike, the action pattern was similar to that in Xingguo County. A team of troops was mobilized to directly suppress the Wang and Li families and the local garrison.
Various account book cases were announced one by one.
The family that had been entrenched in Jianyi for hundreds of years fell apart overnight, and various fields were planned and redistributed.
The whole Jianyi city cheered, and the man who took the lead publicly declared that all this came from Ruihai's memorial in Xingguo County and was his investigation report.
Usually, ordinary poor people get huge credit, and when something is about to succeed, someone will often come to pick peaches and replace him.
When the event is completed and this huge credit is achieved, it will easily fall on him.
As for the two extremely important achievements of clearing Xingguo County and Jianyi County, no one wanted to take the initiative.
They all blamed Rui Hai, and everyone knew that this matter was of great importance.
Anyone with a little bit of brains knows that it is best not to have anything to do with this matter.
Well, I was quietly promoted to the third level of marrow washing and blood transfusion among the crowd, and no one knew about it.
Moreover, he also followed Xue Cheng, the bannerman of Jinyiwei, to see the person responsible for supervising this matter from a distance, Rui Hai.
Ruihai's condition was not very good, his face was as sinking as water, and there was a lingering sadness in his eyes.
When General Jin Yiwei gave me instructions, he said lightly.
"My lord, your newborn son has just died. Please be careful in your words and actions so as not to offend anyone."
The General Banner did not say much in this regard, but people working in private would occasionally mention it.
I heard that all of this woman's sons died in infancy, and none of them are alive. This pregnancy was watched by doctors from beginning to end, but the child still died.
There are many rumors leaking out that this gentleman is too harsh on others, too harsh and cruel to others.
The ordinary people in Jianyi didn't care about this. They only knew that the evil gentry was dead and the petty officials who used to collect taxes randomly in the stores were gone.
The original slaves found out the relevant situation, divided their fields and lands, and suddenly became good people. Some even built a shrine to Rui Hai.
All the bad words about Rui Hai disappeared in an instant.
The people are not stupid. Whoever treats them well and whoever treats them badly is like a clear mirror in their hearts.
