Please think deeply. I don’t care about the few cents. I just hope you respect the value of my labor!) Not long after, large baskets and small baskets, pulled by boxes and trucks, mined a large amount of gold from the inner house of the prefect’s family.
silver
The busiest and most active one was Master Hua Shixiong. He not only directed several men carrying boxes and baskets to come in and out in an orderly manner, but he also revealed several unknown secret places where gold and silver were hidden.
At this time, many people had gathered in front of the magistrate's door to watch the excitement, including dozens of victims who handed in petitions. None of them had ever seen so many gold and silver treasures in their lives. The huge piles of gold and silver were right next to them.
In front of them, this time it really opened their eyes. It turns out that there are really mountains of gold and silver in the world! No wonder people can't afford students no matter how poor they are. What about poor education? Reading can yield so much gold and silver?
There was a table in front of the little eunuch. He sat leisurely on a chair. In front of him were a set of tea bowls, a jar of wine, several dishes of side dishes, and of course a pair of chopsticks. Zhang Facun took care of these things for him, and Zhang Facun stole them.
After becoming famous, he not only found a good job, but also met a benefactor. At night, his wife discussed things with him and repeatedly told him: When you are with your benefactor, it is enough to remember the words benevolence and righteousness! Of course, Zhang Facun’s hobby of stealing is not
After quitting, who eats something thick and then drinks something thin? His salary is enough to support his family, and theft will never happen again.
Zou Zhifu sat on the ground in frustration. His body was fat and his two thick legs could not be crossed. He had to straighten one and curl up the other as a sitting object. He put one hand on his knee, leaning on his face and lowering his head.
, but the peripheral vision of his eyes kept staring at the baskets of white money. At this time, he was not dissatisfied with the lack of money, but was afraid of having more money. If it exceeded that amount, his life would be difficult to save. The little eunuch, he
Although he had met him a few times, he didn't know much about him. His father said that he was a rough guy and difficult to talk to. The old prime minister Wang Shugui treated him as kindly as Cao Gong treated Guan Yunchang, but in the end he refused to accept him.
The most irritating thing in his heart is the boy named Hua. How could he change so easily in just a few hours? The slave with a servile look was very different when he pulled him out of the trash heap.
What does it look like? People’s hearts are not ancient!
Wang Xiaowu was the last one to come out of the courtyard and whispered to the young eunuch: "Brother, it's almost done. There are also the private houses of the magistrate's family members. If we can't kill them all, we have to let them have something to eat. Do you think so?"
The little eunuch waved his hand and said loudly: "Okay, that's all! Brother Xigui, you have to watch carefully. You and I have something to say first, and we can speak on behalf of others."
Zou Xigui's life was at stake. He immediately became energetic and got up from the ground. He opened his eyes wide and stood to the side to see what was going on.
Hua Shixiong reported the number. Wang Xiaowu was worried and wanted to supervise. The young eunuch pulled him and said with a smile:
"Brother, you've been working hard for a long time. You can't go wrong by drinking tea while you're at it."
The final total was three hundred and fifty thousand and one tael. Zou Xigui was dumbfounded. God really knows how to play tricks on people. Why was there only one tael more?
The young eunuch sneered and said: "Your Majesty, the title is correct. Do you want to re-title it?"
Zou Xigui said pitifully: "Master Imperial Envoy, it's only one tael, but you are tolerant and tolerant!"
"Tolerance?" the little eunuch said sternly, "Huayang area is a land of plenty, but what kind of life do the people live? You wantonly exploited, cleverly created names, and exploited the villagers, causing the people to be agitated and grievances everywhere.
Killing you will not satisfy the anger of the people, so I cannot spare you today."
Zou Xigui stood up straight for a while while taking advantage of the weigh-in test. He couldn't help but suddenly fell to the ground with a "pop!", crying and begging bitterly:
"Sir, please spare my life. I know I was wrong!"
The little eunuch said coldly: "You have done so many evil things, and it is hard for God to spare your life. It is like letting a tiger commit a crime. Are you dreaming about it? It's useless to say more. I won't bother you anymore. You are waiting to die!"
"Sir, it's only one tael?" Zou Xigui bargained.
"One tael is not much," the little eunuch said with a smile, "but don't forget the big number 350,000 taels in front. Man, when I came, the imperial treasury only had 200,000 taels. You have a little
The young prefect has 350,000 yuan hidden in his hand? To be honest, I didn’t want to kill you. I thought you would never embezzle such a large amount. Who would have thought that you Tengu eats the sun? If I give you a pocket, you can’t even touch the sky.
You pretended to be at home, I underestimated you."
Zou Xigui had nothing to say, he just trembled all over and kowtowed repeatedly to beg for mercy.
The little eunuch waved his hand and shouted: "Here comes someone!"
There were four swordsmen and axemen in the prefecture. At this time, they all wanted to show off in front of the imperial envoy, so as to make some new achievements and save their current jobs, so they all stepped forward and shouted:
"exist!"
The little eunuch didn't even look at it and ordered: "Okay, take this corrupt official and kill him! Cut off his head and hang it on the flagpole to show his head to the public."
"yes!"
Zou Xigui shouted: "Sir, wait a minute, even if I am a capital offender, I have to wait for the queen to be executed. Do you have an ulterior motive for acting in such a hasty manner?"
"Ball!" the little eunuch scolded, "Quiu Hou said so, but I am an imperial envoy, sent by the emperor's order. I hold the power of life and death. Special issues have been dealt with specially. What else do you have to say?"
Zou Xigui was speechless.
The four axemen couldn't help but drag Lao Zou up, lifting his arms and legs. It usually takes less than half a cup of tea for an eagle to catch a chicken. Zou Xigui's head was already hanging on the top of the flagpole. It was much easier than killing a pig.
Zou Xigui's eyes didn't close. He didn't know whether he was dissatisfied, regretful, or had other thoughts.
There was a sudden uproar in front of the magistrate's door.
The little eunuch jumped up on the table and shouted to the crowd: "Everyone, be quiet. Let's start dividing the stolen silver. Everyone who comes here today will get ten taels each. Those who submitted the petition will get twenty taels each. Take it from the people and return it to the people."
To the people! Now that the corrupt official is dead, his revenge has been avenged, his anger has subsided, and he has received the money and gone home to live his life!"
There was joy again in front of the house
The little eunuch immediately decided: one hundred thousand taels will be distributed to the citizens, one hundred thousand taels will be turned over to the state treasury, one hundred thousand taels will be sent to the border, and 50,000 taels will be left in the government for mobile use.
After everything was done and the young eunuch was about to make arrangements to enter the mansion, Hua Shixiong kowtowed to the young eunuch and said:
"Please, sir, arrange an errand for me."
The little eunuch smiled deliberately and teased: "I've worked hard for you today. I'll give you some extra travel expenses as a reward, so you can go home too!"
Hua Shixiong was dissatisfied and shouted: "Sir, you said before that you would give me a job for a senior official! There is no joke in officialdom, noble people should not forget things too much!"
The little eunuch also saw that no one is perfect, and no one is perfect. Although Hua Shixiong is full of problems, he does have some abilities. It is better to stay, and he may be a good dog, so he said:
"Okay, in that case, just stay with me and work."
Hua Shixiong was overjoyed and kowtowed as if he were pounding garlic: "Thank you for your cultivation, thank you for your cultivation! From now on, I will be your dog, and I will bite whoever you ask me to bite."
The little eunuch smiled and said: "Forget it, get up! A dog that doesn't bite may not necessarily be a good dog, but don't bite easily."
"Yes, my lord!" Hua Shixiong agreed and got up from the ground happily.
