I want to ruin the country

Chapter 171 You are the Director of the Arsenal

Yining said again,

"From now on, you will give priority to selecting and employing the talents selected by the Ministry of Industry. If there is anything you don't understand, or if you don't know how to do something, you can discuss it with Du Han. If you still can't solve it, come to me. How do you do that?"

Zhang Ying said tremblingly,

"Your Majesty, how can a child like him handle such a serious matter? Your Majesty, your Majesty..."

Yining understood his feelings and said,

"Lord Zhang, this matter has nothing to do with you. Whether he did good or bad, I won't blame him. Please don't say any more!"

Having said that, what else can Zhang Ying say? If she refuses again, she will be shameless!

Two people give thanks together,

"The minister obeys the order!"

After the father and son came out of the palace, they were still dizzy and their legs were weak. Zhang Zhidong asked,

"Father, why is this?"

Zhang Ying,

"I, your father, don't understand. Of all the ministers in the court, why did they choose you alone?"

The father and son were puzzled!

Yi Hongxing said,

"Master Zhang, don't blame me for being nosy. Our emperor has met the Holy Ancestor, and there are some things that the Holy Ancestor taught him!"

When the two heard that the emperor was a psychic, everything was explained. Zhang Zhidong secretly made up his mind to never let the emperor down.

When Zhang Ying and his father returned to the post station, they saw that all the people had been replaced. They moved so quickly!

Everyone at the post station was taken away by the Dali Temple yesterday, and now everyone knows that it was because Huang Bingyao offended Zhang Ying and his father that he was thrown into prison!

Yi Hongxing said,

"You bastards, be careful and wait! This is the newly appointed Shuntian Prefecture Governor, Lord Zhang, your immediate superior!"

When everyone heard this, they felt it was even more outrageous and quickly kowtowed again to show their respect.

That enthusiasm and fawning attitude is even more affectionate than meeting his biological father!

Zhang Ying said,

"This government has nothing to say, you just need to do your job honestly and according to the rules.

The post station is to facilitate the travel of officials. If you cause unnecessary trouble to others, this government will not forgive you!"

These people nodded in agreement hurriedly, and from then on, there was no more incident of looking down on others at Chengnan Station.

Where there are happy people, there are unlucky people, and the unluckiest one is Sai A Ding.

Today I was talking about handing in a sign to see the emperor, but I didn't expect the imperial edict to come down first, demoting me to a commoner.

He didn't even have the chance to submit a memorial to defend himself and was directly taken to the Dali Temple.

Only now did he remember that it was all his own housekeeper's fault. If you hadn't beaten those two, would I have been able to get away with it?

He quickly tried to find a way to contact his teacher Mu Zhang'a, but unfortunately Wang Jindou didn't give him a chance. He took all of them back without giving them any face and locked them up with iron chains!

Isn’t this a disaster that fell from the sky?

When they arrived at the lobby, his butler was beaten with a hundred boards by Wang Jindou.

These one hundred blows were real beatings, from the buttocks to the thighs, all of them were broken. After a hundred blows, the housekeeper had fainted.

Wang Jindou said,

"Splash cold water on your face to wake you up!"

A basin of cold water was poured on the housekeeper's face, and he slowly woke up.

Wang Jindou said,

"Do you know why I hit you?"

The housekeeper had already lost his temper after being beaten.

"Master, I don't know!"

Wang Jindou sneered,

"You, a mere dog slave, have become a criminal. Don't you know whether you should feel happy or sad?"

The housekeeper thought to himself, he was almost beaten to death, and I was still feeling lucky, so he closed his eyes and said nothing.

Wang Jindou said,

"You've offended the Emperor, and you're doomed. But if you want to live, I can still save you!"

It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. The housekeeper was no exception and said hurriedly,

"Please show me the way!"

Wang Jindou said,

"You've also seen that your Lord Sai A Ding has also been arrested. If you can tell me some of his stories, I will consider you a meritorious servant and ask the Emperor to spare your life!"

Since ancient times, who wouldn't want to do something that would make a friend die rather than the poor one? When the housekeeper heard that there was still a way out, he quickly said,

"Sir, is what you said true?"

Wang Jindou said,

"With so many people guarding me, would I break my promise to a mere slave like you?"

The housekeeper finally found a lifeline.

"My Lord, I will tell you everything!"

Generally speaking, as long as they are corrupt officials, they may be able to hide their deeds from anyone, but it is almost impossible for them to hide them from their butler and servants.

Because there are some things that still need them to do, the master can't just go and deliver the gifts with a box of snacks himself!

As soon as the butler opened his mouth, Sai A Ding's life was over!

After Mu Zhang'a found out, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth. When beating a dog, you have to look at the owner first. Because a fourth-rank prefect actually disregarded his own face, what was the emperor going to do?

The emperor is becoming more and more arrogant now. He doesn't discuss anything with the ministers. He does whatever he wants and promotes whoever he wants. What's the use of us?

He wanted to go to the emperor to ask for an explanation, but after thinking about it, he sat down again.

"I can't go. I'm not clean. Even though Qiying didn't say anything, I still feel uneasy!"

He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, and he got up and sat down, sat down and stood up, tossing and turning for a long time.

After thinking about it, I decided to give up. I don’t know what that guy Senglinqin is thinking. I can’t do anything alone. Let’s see how the situation develops!

Wang Jindou interrogated Huang Bingyao again.

"Huang Bingyao, do you admit your guilt?"

"I don't know what crime I have committed."

Wang Jindou sneered,

"Hehe! That Lord Zhang Ying was specially summoned by the Emperor and has been appointed as the Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture. How can you treat him with disrespect?

The Emperor was furious when he heard about your story. He said, "I can execute you regardless of whether you know your crime or not. Do you think your confession is important?"

When this guy heard that it was the emperor himself who ordered his arrest, he was scared to death.

"Sir, I am wronged!"

"Tell the truth! If you tell the truth, I can plead with the emperor for mercy. Otherwise, I will beat you to death with clubs and confiscate all your property!"

Huang Bingyao knew that he had offended the emperor and that he would be in trouble, so in order to save his life, he quickly said whatever he wanted.

After hearing his explanation, Wang Jindou was filled with anger again.

"Bah! With such a promising future, yet you embezzled so much money? Beat me!"

More than 300,000 silver coins were found in Huang Bingyao's house.

Wang Jindou did the math for him and found out that he had been working for eleven years and on average he had embezzled, misappropriated and misappropriated nearly twenty thousand silver coins a year. He was truly a small official with huge corruption!

Not to mention Sai Ading, how could he be fine after being an official for decades? From keeping silent at the beginning, to making all kinds of excuses and struggling to the death, in the end he still couldn't defeat Wang Jindou.

He ate vacancies, embezzled military funds, accepted bribes, killed innocent people to claim credit, etc., and more than two million silver coins were seized from his home.

During this period, more than 20 million taels of silver were seized from the homes of these corrupt officials, and other land, jewelry, etc. were worth more than 10 million taels at a discounted price.
