Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Upon hearing such a question, Zhang Wencai said hastily, "My uncle told me to arrest...I arrested him."

"Who is your uncle?"

Zhang Wencai pointed at Zhang Shen tremblingly.

"Your Majesty, he is wronging the minister!"

"Why did he ask you to arrest Mrs. Li?"

"Your Majesty, I have already noticed Wang Xie, so I asked him to find and protect Li Shi."

"Shut up!" Zhao Ning grabbed the teacup impatiently and threw it at Zhang Shen. With a bang, it hit Zhang Shen's head and the teacup shattered.

Veins popped up on Zhao Ning's forehead, and when he turned to look at Zhang Wencai, a smile appeared on his face again.

Zhang Wencai was so frightened that his whole body trembled, he never thought that Officer Zhao would be the present day.

"He didn't say the reason, he just said that it's best to arrest Mrs. Li...it's best to kill him."

Zhang Shen continued to shout: "Your Majesty, I am wronged..."

"My father knew about this..."

Speaking of his father Zhang Bi, as soon as the words fell, he was also taken to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

As soon as Zhang Bi saw Zhao Guan's house, he crawled over on his knees and shouted: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged! Zhang Shen asked us to do it!"

Zhang Shen was as pale as dead.

Zhao Ning said coldly: "An envoy wants to put a peasant woman to death! This is really rare in the world!"

At that time, Fan Zhongyan's position in the Northwest was only the deputy envoy of economics and strategy.

Shaanxi has always been the place where the governors of the Song Dynasty made military achievements. If Shaanxi's economic and strategic envoys do a good job, they can return to Beijing and enter the two prefectures to serve as governors.

It can be said that the envoys of the Six Routes of Shaanxi are all big figures who can influence the court and the local area, and they control the wealth and lives of millions of people.

Zhao Ning said calmly, "How much pension did you get?"

Zhang Shen hesitated for a moment and said, "Hundreds of thousands."

"What about military expenses?"

"Millions."

"How did you get it?"

"The people below sent it up. Every once in a while, in the name of gift-giving, they put the money into gift boxes and sent them box by box. In order to deceive people, sometimes they let the back kitchen of the Economic and Strategy Office handle it. place for food."

"There are also some false accounts."

"False accounts?"

"False accounts were made on the war dead list, one was reported and another was issued."

"You took the money by yourself?"

"And..." Zhang Shen glanced at Zhang Bi.

One is a local official, and the other is an important official of the Privy Council of the imperial court. The declaration of military expenses involves the number of soldiers, the report of death in battle, the verification of the household department, the verification of the local transshipment department, the verification of the economic strategy department, the verification of the general system and the department and so on.

How could it be so simple to want to embezzle!

There must be a problem with the whole process.

Zhang Bi said quickly: "Your Majesty, forgive me!"

"Write! Write down the whole process of how to get money! If you dare to miss a single word, I will kill you!"

Chapter 346 I just want to make this matter the biggest! (Second more)

Qin Hui and Gao Qiu were silent on the side.

Zhang Shen and Zhang Bi's brothers wrote today, I don't know what kind of bloody storm will be caused in Song Dynasty.

I don't know how many officials will be involved in it. I'm afraid it will be a big case with wide spread.

Not to mention the way they embezzled money, they have all been recorded, and they will definitely be sent to the General Department of Jingzhao Prefecture.

Yang Yizhong, who has sharpened his knives, is now checking people everywhere in Shaanxi.

From this point of view, Zhao Guanjia will not let it go if the Shaanxi Sixth Road is not turned upside down.

After writing for a long time, I finally finished writing.

Zhao Ning read it carefully back and forth, the more he read it, the more fucking angry he became.

From the central to the local, even the local officials who passed through the midway transportation took the money.

The Privy Council, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Officials.

The system, money, and people, these three points, all collapsed!

With such a ghostly appearance, it's no wonder that in the late Northern Song Dynasty, when they encountered the Jin army, they were defeated.

Only then did Zhao Ning understand that in the third Song-Jin war, Shaanxi consumed the Jin army by piling up people. The reason why he was able to pile up people was that he, Zhao Guanjia, proposed the concept of "Thirty Pensions" and even paid military expenses in advance .

Without these, I am afraid that Shaanxi has already fallen.

What's ridiculous is that the concept of "thirty pensions" has become a piece of cake that has not been realized!

How many such cakes can you draw?

If it is not fulfilled this time, will someone believe in it next time?

He was busy looking for money everywhere in the capital, and finally it all went into the pockets of the blood-sucking bureaucrats.

Of course, when Zhao Ning distributed the money, he naturally knew that there were corrupt officials.

These things are inevitable, old traditions.

But he never expected that corrupt officials in the Song Dynasty would be so shameless!

Thirty Guan pensions are only given to Yi Guan!

One life lasts forever!

And there is a ninety-year-old sheep on their table, they can eat whatever they want until they are full!

A piece of clothing is worth a hundred!

Zhao Ning stood up, walked out, got into the carriage and returned to the palace.

After returning to the palace, no one knew what Zhao Guan's family was thinking.

But people only heard the sound of broken porcelain coming from Wende Hall.

The maids and servants were too frightened to move.

After a while, Wang Huaiji asked people to go to the Wende Hall to clean up all the things on the ground.

In fact, whether it is a commoner, an official, a prime minister, or an emperor, they are all human beings.

After society was born, class attributes were born.

But in essence, we are all just human.

Humans have emotions, and even those with high energy tend to be more irritable.

For example, Boss Liu Che, the most energetic emperor in ancient China, had a violent temper that made people tremble.

If you have a temper, you must vent it, not keep it in your heart.

If you are bored in your heart, it is easy to become depressed and sick.

However, a real political master actually has his political purpose even when he loses his temper.

There is an old saying: Emotions and anger are invisible.

This is generally used to describe an emperor or a hero.

Under normal circumstances, people will mistakenly think that this sentence means, don't show your emotions on your face, otherwise it will be easy to be guessed and prescribe the right medicine.

In fact, this is a superficial understanding.

The true meaning of this sentence is that you can express your emotions as much as you want, but don't let people guess your true thoughts and be led by the nose.

Zhao Guan's family got angry and smashed things in the Wende Palace, of course it was a big deal.

The emperor is angry, I am afraid that the whole capital will tremble three times.

That night, the Zai Zhis don't celebrate the Lantern Festival.

They all went to the Zhengshitang honestly, and the statements about Zhang Shen and Zhang Bi were also put in the Zhengshitang.

There were still many people clamoring to stop the Shaanxi investigation before, but now the confession is here.

From the military administration of the Privy Council, to the personnel arrangement and assessment of the Ministry of Officials, and the financial distribution of the Ministry of Households, there are problems.

The most important thing is that local officials have problems in large numbers.

This is much more serious than last year's Huaixi.

This case involved eight roads from Gyeonggi to Beijing Northwest Road to Shaanxi Sixth Road.

Moreover, the amount is huge, the level of officials is high, wide, and their influence is unprecedented, which is unique.

At such a critical moment when foreign aggression loomed, such a appalling corruption case was uncovered, which undoubtedly gave Jingkang a resounding slap in the face at the beginning of five years.

What exactly is going on?

This kind of corruption is a complete industrial chain!

Even Xi Gong, the former economic envoy of Jingyuan Road, also took money in this industrial chain!

This is the total collapse of the administrative and military system!

The ministers discussed all night, and the next day was still dark, and it was almost morning, so they didn't go home, and went directly to the outside of the Chuigong Hall.

During the morning court, everyone was very quiet.

Because everyone knows that the emperor smashed things in Wende Palace yesterday.

Most people don't know why Zhao Guan's family is so angry, but everyone knows that Zhao Guan's family is probably still on fire at this moment.

So no one dared to touch bad luck, and there was a dead silence in the Chui Gong hall.

Until Qin Hui was the first to stand up and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I participated in the interrogation of Zhang Shen, the envoy of the Jingyan Road, and Zhang Bi, the member of the Privy Council's Hexi room, Zhang Bi. The results of the interrogation are as follows."

Qin Hui began to read with his head held high.

After the recitation, the hall was so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling on the ground could be heard.

Now everyone doesn't say anything about stopping the investigation in Shaanxi, who dares to say that?

Qin Hui continued: "Your Majesty, the collapse of the country's rules and regulations is related to the survival of the country. I request your Majesty to quickly investigate and deal with those involved!"

As soon as Qin Hui opened his mouth, Qin Hui's buddies also came out one after another, such as Wang Ciweng, he ran out and said loudly: "If such a big matter is not strictly investigated, how can your majesty establish trust in the world? I will die!"

What the hell is he talking about!

Both Qin Hui and Wang Ciweng are not good people.

Zhao Ning really wanted to use this matter to carry out a large-scale investigation, but it was definitely not for Qin Hui to investigate.

The role of people like Qin Hui and Wang Ciweng this time is at most to raise the matter in the court and be a vanguard.

If we really want a big investigation, in addition to the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice, we also need to have the Yushitai, the Military Governor's Mansion, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and even expand the Audit Court.

This matter is definitely a major case involving multiple departments.

"Civilian officials are greedy for money, military commanders are afraid of death!" Zhao Guanjia spoke.

Under the calm tone, there was anger.

"The common people were deceived by me to die on the battlefield, and they managed to stop the Jin army's attack in Shaanxi with a single bang. It's really amazing that I deceived my people to fight and seek money for my ministers."

"What about the back?" Officer Zhao glanced around, his tone as cold as snow in the twelfth lunar month, "My reputation has been exhausted, how can the imperial court convince the people to trust the imperial court?"

"How can I explain to the world!"

"Tens of millions of military expenditures! How much fell into the hands of the soldiers, and how much fell into the hands of the families of the war dead?"

The emperor's volume gradually increased.

"Guochao's high-paid nurturing servants turned out to be a group of evil spirits who suck human blood and eat human flesh!"
