Chapter 70
The banquet in the official residence of the general manager's mansion was in full swing, and Cui Che's sudden departure did not disturb everyone's interest, it is hard to forbid people to go to the toilet after having a drink.

It's just that it took a long time for Brother Che to come back.

Between the toasts and cups, there was a burst of drumming outside.

Hearing the sound, Yang Guang was completely overwhelmed with alcohol, and said to his attendant:
"Who is playing drums outside, bring them here quickly?"

All the people with rosacea looked at each other, wondering what kind of medicine Yang Guang was selling in the gourd, and what was the meaning of the big drum outside the general manager's mansion.

But Cui Che was still caring. Seeing everyone's doubts, he smiled and said:
"You don't need to worry too much. His Royal Highness Jin set up drums to listen to the sufferings of the people. Tomorrow, notices will be posted in various parts of Bingzhou to let the people of Bingzhou know that if there is any grievance, just beat the drum to complain, and His Royal Highness Jin will definitely judge the crimes and meet them." call for it."

"I don't know what Cui Changshi said about the public trial"

The owner of the Jinyang house hadn't finished speaking, but Yang Xuangan snorted coldly:

"Naturally, we should set up a platform in a busy city and gather all the people in the city to watch and hear the trial as a warning."

Those with rosacea heard these words, and it was very clear that this was clearly aimed at them, otherwise they didn't know the effect of the big drum, so how could there be a sufferer beating the drum to cry for grievances.

The top clans that have been rooted for hundreds of years are not clean. Perhaps these direct descendants pay attention to reputation, and there will be side branches who bully men and women and do evil.

But Yang Guang and Cui Che wanted to hold a public trial, apparently to warn the people, but in fact they were nothing more than a threat to publicize the ugliness of the Wang family.

After all, when the news got out, people in the world would not care whether it was the direct line or the side branch who did the evil, even if it was the side line, they were borrowing the power of the lineage. Besides, it is true that all the descendants of the Wang family in Taiyuan obeyed the law.

But those with rosacea are also confident, so they don't believe it. There are mud legs in Jinyang city who dare to accuse the old men of the Wang family for their bad behavior, and they will die afterwards.

The sufferer was brought up, and Yang Guang was going to the city for a public trial, but he was dissuaded by the chief, Shi Cuiche, so he had the right to listen to the case in the official residence.

Of course, those with rosacea also knew that this was a scene between Yang Guang and Cui Che, but to everyone's surprise, the lawsuit was brought by the sufferer and had nothing to do with Wang.

The sufferer was originally a small official in Bingzhou Governor's Office. He sued the general manager's office for asking for bribes, and he did not do anything after receiving the money.

Cui Che and Yang Guang only made up their minds yesterday, and they really don't have time to investigate Wang's crimes. Moreover, the people of Bingzhou are afraid of retaliation, so they keep silent, let alone expect them to reveal it voluntarily.

It is also true that some of the staff of the General Manager's Mansion accepted bribes from the officials of the Governor's Mansion. After Cui Che came to Jinyang, he rejected many good intentions. Yang Guang has been keeping an eye on it secretly, and is ready to find an opportunity to deal with it again.

After all, Ah Guang wants to be a virtuous king, but he doesn't want to have the reputation of indulging his subordinates' greed.

So he simply started internally, gouged out the sores, and found a person who gave bribes, but failed to get what he wanted, and harbored resentment.

In front of all the people with rosacea, Yang Guang summoned the defendant at the same time and asked him to confront the sufferer in public. People must have received more than one share of the money.

Seeing that Yang Guang planned to interrogate the clerks of the former governor's mansion recommended by him to be transferred to the general manager's mansion individually, the bribe-extorting official finally pleaded guilty.

In today's north, the laws of the Northern Zhou Dynasty are still used. Yang Jian has ordered Gao Jiong, Zheng Yi, Yang Su and others to revise the new laws on the basis of the laws of the Northern Qi Dynasty, but it will not be promulgated so soon.

That's right, although the Northern Qi Dynasty died, due to the advanced nature of its laws, Yang Jian abandoned the laws of the Northern Zhou Dynasty when compiling the new laws, and turned to the laws of the Northern Qi Dynasty as the blueprint.

But no matter how unbearable the laws of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were, they had to be followed before the new laws were promulgated.

Compared with the provisions of the Northern Wei and Northern Qi Dynasties that embezzled the value of a piece of cloth and silk, they would be executed. In the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yu Wentai relaxed it to death for those who embezzled more than [-] bolts of cloth and silk.

After all, the death of a person who has stolen money can be strictly implemented. Not to mention others, Cui Che's grandfather Cui Jishu may owe tens of thousands of lives.

But no matter if it is one horse or thirty horses, the amount of bribes accepted by this moth in the manager's mansion is far beyond the red line.

In fact, since the Northern Wei Dynasty did not distribute salaries to officials, the atmosphere in the officialdom has been completely bad. It depends on whether the superiors are caught or not. The routine of fishing and law enforcement was used to intimidate officials.

After the bribe-taking official pleaded guilty, Yang Guang sent someone to escort him to Chang'an, and he was spared the crime of bribery by the suffering master. He was arranged by Cui Che to come to sue, so he can't be punished too.

Those with rosacea watched a scene and were even more puzzled until Cui Che got up and said seriously:

"Now that the crime has been punished, the stolen money has been recovered, and the sufferer has been vindicated, everyone is happy. But Che is worried that the sufferer will be resented by others afterwards, so it is better to send him to another place as an official."

Yang Guang seemed very satisfied with Cui Che's suggestion, and further extended:

"He's not alone. From tomorrow onwards, everyone who complains of grievances needs to be taken care of carefully and properly settled, so that they don't have any worries about the future."

As soon as these words came out, the rosacea people really panicked. They were unscrupulous because the people of Bingzhou were afraid of retaliation after the incident, so they dared not speak out.

And Yang Guang really wants to be their backer wholeheartedly, and cut off their worries for the future, so he is really a defense against the people rather than against Sichuan.

As long as there is one person beating the drums to appeal for grievances, and Yang Guang only needs to protect him, whether it is to send him to Chang'an for resettlement, or find a place for him to live in other places, more people will follow suit.

And it couldn't be easier to find a person who complains, just like today's suffering lords are encouraged to sue.

For the noble family, the interests of the occupied fields are of course important, but the clan's prestige is even more precious, and those who can be temporarily elected as the master can also recognize this.

Now the matter is very clear. Yang Guang also said before that he wanted to do it well for the first time when he was on duty.

The rosacea also came to his senses, why Cui Che tried to dissuade Yang Guang from being interrogated in the official residence, it was simply because he was willing to cooperate, and the people of Bingzhou would not know the so-called "beating the drums to cry for grievances" and public trials in the city.

If you don't want to cooperate, if you really post the notice in the counties and counties of Bingzhou, it will attract people to flock, and no one can predict the consequences.

What's more, it was Yang Jian's will to track down the land and hidden households, and what Yang Guang did would surely win his father's support.

Serving the people and avenging grievances cannot be wrongly placed in any era.

After a long silence, the person in charge of the house owner in Jinyang and the person in charge of the house owner in Qi County looked at each other, and they could see the helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Your Majesty King Jin, Jinyangfang is willing to fully cooperate with the investigation."

Qixian Fang also followed suit.

A bright smile finally appeared on Yang Guang's face, and a deal was concluded in this way.

But not asking about Wang's past crimes at this time does not mean that he will not be investigated in the future.

Matters are prioritized, and for Yang Guang and Cui Che, it is imperative to work together to complete the investigation and give Yang Jian a satisfactory answer.

 The next chapter should be before twelve o'clock, and I didn't get up until dinner, and went for an infusion, so the update was late, and the old book should be updated in the early morning.
