Chapter 102: Heads are rolling, and a guard is needed (4k)(1/2)
Chapter 102: Heads are rolling, need a guard? (4k)
"Very good!"
Zhe Xinyi is very satisfied with this.
If what County Magistrate Su Mu said is true, and with such evidence, then... the next operation will be much simpler, and it can save a lot of things.
Immediately, Zhe Xinyi asked several soldiers to take the county magistrate Su Mu to get the so-called evidence.
Facts have proved that what County Magistrate Su Mu said was not lying and was indeed true.
Not only that, it even surprised Zhe Xinyi, Li Miao and others because the evidence was so detailed that it was obvious that he had been preparing for a long time.
However, there is no doubt that with these pieces of evidence, the county magistrate Wang Jinfu, the county captain Liang Hua and others were speechless, and their expressions were as if they were dead.
They all know in their hearts that based on what they have done over the years, if no miracle occurs, they will inevitably be killed or exiled. There is no other way to go, and their families will also be implicated.
There were some petty officials who fainted decisively, and there were also those who were crying and crawling on their knees, trying to kowtow in front of Zhe Xinyi, praying for the greatest forgiveness, but they had not yet reached Zhe Xinyi's.
He was pulled out by soldiers right in front of him.
......
In the next two days, under the control of Zhe Xinyi, a thorough cleaning of the entire county government in Anxi County was carried out.
During this period, a detailed investigation was also conducted on County Magistrate Su Mu.
Su Mu was a Jinshi in the eighth year of Yongxing. In the ninth year of Yongxing, he came to Anxi County and took up the post of county magistrate.
Because he was a relatively upright person and was unwilling to do any evil things, he was always ostracized by the county magistrate Wang Jinfu, the county captain Liang Hua and others, and was regarded as a thorn in the side. In the county government, except for the fictitious position of a county magistrate, he had no other
A shred of power at all.
This has to be said to be a very sad thing. Officials who are honest and want to do something for the people have no power. On the contrary, those corrupt officials and dog officials have great power.
However, this allows Zhe Xinyi to feel free to use Su Mu as the county magistrate temporarily.
In her reply to the local magistrate, Zhe Xinyi also mentioned such a thing. I believe that it won't be long before the court will issue a formal order: let Su Mu become the next magistrate of Anxi County.
At this point, the court will still believe Zhe Xinyi's judgment and give her such a face.
On the other side, Zhao Bugui led two hundred fully armed soldiers to Hutou Mountain to look for trouble in Hutou Village. It only took less than half a day to uproot Hutou Village.
At this point, Hutou Village, which had been rampant in the area near Hutou Mountain for more than ten years, disappeared!
……
"Kill these dog officials!"
"Kill these evil thieves!"
"..."
Except for the county magistrate Wang Jinfu and the county captain Liang Hua who have to wait for the final order from the court, the rest of the minor officials, the village owner of Hutou Village, and others, Su Mu, who is now the acting county magistrate, has full authority to deal with them.
The ending that awaits these people is naturally their heads falling to the ground.
When these people were taken to the vegetable market, they were much more miserable than when they were first taken out of the prison. Along the way, people kept throwing rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, sour water, etc. at their bodies.
From this, we learned how unloved the county government in Anxi County is by the local people.
I looked up at the sky and saw that it was already three quarters to noon.
"The auspicious time has come for execution!"
Su Mu threw out the beheading token in his hand.
Poof!
The villains had a mouthful of strong alcohol in their mouths and sprayed it on the shining silver machetes in their hands.
"Drink!"
Then, he raised the machete in his hand high, shouted, and chopped down hard.
Suddenly, each head rolled on the floor of the vegetable market like a watermelon, and blood spurted out.
Although they are all evil people, they are still human beings, not chickens, cats or ducks.
Seeing such a scene, the bold people can't help but twitch the corners of their eyes and turn pale, while the timid people have already turned their eyes to the other side when the executioner raised the machete in his hand.
The second floor of a building.
"Is there nothing wrong?"
Zhe Xinyi looked at Li Miao, whose face was a little pale.
"It's okay."
Li Miao showed an ugly smile. Although he had killed someone before, he never thought that beheading would have such impact.
Seeing this, Zhe Xinyi said: "I have already said that there is nothing good about beheading, but you still have to drag me here."
Li Miao: "..."
Then, he explained weakly: "Have I never seen this before? I'm a little bit curious."
Zhe Xinyi glanced at him: "Have you seen it now?"
"Yeah."
Li Miao nodded: "I've seen it."
"Then let's go back."
In the past few days, the two of them have been living in the back house of the county government. There are enough empty rooms there, and they only need to be tidied up to accommodate people.
When the two returned to the gate of the county government, they saw a woman about twenty years old, wearing coarse cloth, pleading with two soldiers.
The two soldiers were not moved at all.
Because the county government was completely purged, most of the police officers were dismissed and went home. In addition, the county government was really busy during this period, and the county government was extremely short of people. Therefore, some soldiers were temporarily employed.
Catching the fast.
"What's going on?"
Zhe Xinyi and Li Miao came over and asked about the situation.
One of the soldiers respectfully said to Zhe Xinyi: "General Zhe, this woman said she wanted to go into the prison to see a prisoner named Wu Yong, but Mr. Su had previously ordered that others not be allowed to enter the prison to visit the prisoner at will, so I waited.
So I didn’t let this woman enter the county government office.”
Although the two people in front of me look very young, judging from the behavior of the soldiers, their identities must not be simple.
After realizing this, the woman quickly turned to Zhe Xinyi and Li Miao and said, "Two noblemen, apart from having a straight personality, Brother Wu is a relatively good person. He has never done anything bad at all.
I beg you two noble men to let Brother Wu go!"
Having said that, kneel down.
Zhe Xinyi quickly helped him up and said: "Of course the government will find out what's right and wrong. If he really hasn't done anything wrong, nothing will happen."
Without waiting for the woman to say anything else, Zhe Xinyi turned her head and said to the soldier: "Take her into the cell to meet the prisoner named Wu Yong."
"Yes! General Zhe!"
Soldiers are under orders.
He knows that the biggest one in front of him here, his own generals all have to listen to her, then his own generals, and finally the acting magistrate.
Hmm... No, there is also the pretty boy next to me. In most cases, this pretty girl will listen to her.
......
After entering the county government office, Zhe Xinyi found a supervisor and asked him to find Wu Yong's information. This supervisor was one of the few officials not included in the purge list.
Wu Yong, a person from Liangshan area in Lingzhou, came to Anxi County five months ago because of the drought.
By chance, the county magistrate Wang Jinfu saw his extraordinary skills and recruited him under his command.
As a result, Wu Yong became the bodyguard of the county magistrate Wang Jinfu.
Wu Yong is so strong that even ten people could not defeat him in a tug of war.
At the same time, the appetite is surprisingly large.
Since he was recruited by the magistrate Wang Jinfu, except for once protecting the magistrate Wang Jinfu, he basically just followed the magistrate Wang Jinfu every day. It is true that he has not done anything evil, or because the time is still short.
Why, there is no time to do evil in the future?
This is the information Zhe Xinyi has about Wu Yong. Based on this, Wu Yong is not guilty of any big crime.
"How about we go to the cell to take a look at this person?" Li Miao suggested.
To be honest, he was more or less interested in Wu Yong. When he saw him for the first time, he was convinced that Wu Yong looked too burly.
This is probably the burliest one among all the people he has ever seen. There is no one else. The first impression gives people that if this guy is placed on the battlefield, he will definitely be the kind of fierce general who sweeps through thousands of armies!
Another reason is that it's a bit boring, otherwise he wouldn't have dragged Zhe Xinyi to watch the beheading.
So, under the guidance of two soldiers, the two came to the cell where Wu Yong was being held.
At this time, the woman from before was talking to Wu Yong, looking worried.
To be continued...
