The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 113 Fatal negligence! A cruel opponent!

The exchange with Zhang Fuhua was completed.

Tang Hao was completely relieved.

In fact, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is a good knife!

This kind of central supervisory agency is supposed to supervise all officials and resist corruption!

But this sword has now become a echo of the civil servants and gentry, and has even taken the lead in corruption!

What Tang Hao wants is very simple. He takes this opportunity to rectify the Metropolitan Procuratorate and turn it into a truly sharp blade, hanging high above the heads of the gentry!

However, just when Tang Hao had just walked out of the cell, Gu Dayong hurried over.

"To put it bluntly, Your Majesty really wants to kill this Li Dongyang. I can call the Dongguan Tang army over now and chop this old guy into mincemeat on the spot..."

"Find out these offenders who are eating them inside and outside!"

To become a Jinshi, there is still a palace examination, but the palace examination only ranks the candidates and does not change the candidates. Therefore, those who can take the high school examination basically have two steps to enter the official career, and the candidates can only count as half a foot.

"That's right!" Gu Dayong hurriedly explained: "They all have a small amount of stolen money, ranging from a few hundred taels of silver!"

"Eighteen dead!"

"Open the cell door!"

After the skins of corrupt officials were peeled off, the blanks were filled with grass to make "corrupt official specimens" and hung up. They were placed in the "Pi Chang Temple" to "make them shocking", thus warning officials to be honest and self-disciplined.

"That's the Xichang Prison!"

Before he finished speaking, He Tianqu suddenly stood up, then glared at Tang Hao with a look of resentment on his face, and then he really rushed towards the wall and bumped his head against it!

Do you still want to be an official?

After a scholar passes the boy examination, he will have the first title of scholar!

Scholars are no longer ordinary scholars. They begin to have the aura of "fame" and can enjoy privileges that ordinary scholars do not have. For example, they are exempted from corvee, can report to the magistrate when encountering official matters, do not kneel before the magistrate, and cannot use torture casually when litigating. wait.

Gu Dayong roared viciously, his face full of fear!

This was the first time he had seen such a large-scale suicide!

"A man dies like a lamp going out!"

"Look at the situation of the other twenty-eight censors!"

After all, you are in prison, and the food will definitely not be much better.

It’s good to have steamed buns to eat, but there are countless people in the world who can’t even afford steamed buns and are chewing tree bark!

No, are you serious?

"Our family must ensure that he can live and die!"

After being stunned for a short time, Tang Hao finally came to his senses.

If Li Dongyang doesn't save him, these people will be resentful and bite him back!

Therefore, this ruthless old fox directly came to the bottom of the pot and forced these people to commit suicide in prison, completely solving all future troubles!

Now, it's not how Tang Hao and the others designed Li Dongyang, but how Li Dongyang criticized Tang Hao!

In an instant, the blood was dripping, the brain was broken, and he was dead!

Tang Hao wiped the white liquid on his face, and then looked at Gu Dayong subconsciously.

Tang Hao, on the other hand, observed the cell carefully, and finally focused on the steamed bun that He Tianqu had not finished eating.

"But now, due to Xichang's negligence, all the witnesses are dead. The remaining ones will never dare to identify Li Dongyang again... I am not willing to accept it!"

"This time, you have suffered so much infamy. You set up this trap just to uproot Li Dongyang's party!"

"What use do I have for you trash?"

Captain Jinyi immediately took the wotou to check, but unfortunately it was of no use.

Even Tang Hao didn't expect that Li Dongyang could be so ruthless!

As soon as these words came out, Gu Dayong was speechless.

Hearing this, the soldier on duty looked at Gu Dayong subconsciously.

"If Xiaguan cooperates with Zhongshan Marquis to expose Mr. Li Ge, can Zhongshan Marquis keep Xiaguan's... official status?"

"They are all seeking their own death, without exception!"

If Zhu Houzhao hadn't been resolute and blocked Empress Dowager Zhang and Empress Xia back with the sentence "No interference in politics in the harem", we still don't know what the trouble would have been like!

"Clean up!"

Tang Hao finally spoke after seeing this. After all, Gu Dayong, a fool, didn't dare to hide. If this continued, he might be beaten to death by the little emperor.

He Tianqu?

Li Dongyang’s lackey!

"Forget it if it doesn't work this time. Let's come back next time. Savage, don't be so impulsive, I'll still be embarrassed!"

"I, He Tianqu Hanchuang, have studied hard for more than ten years, and I came here just for this official position!"

Finally, he waited!

When Tang Hao saw the Jiuqing officials kneeling on the ground, his heart sank to the bottom.

Hearing this, Gu Dayong also noticed something was wrong and quickly took people to check.

Tang Hao chuckled and said: "I can save your life, but as for the rest, don't think too much about it!"

"If I can't be an official, without my official status, what else can I do as a powerless scholar?"

After a while, Gu Dayong ran back with a face full of panic.

Speaking of which, in terms of personal force, no one in the world seems to be able to hurt the Marquis of Zhongshan!

He Tianqu, a mere scholar, was beaten half to death again, so that he could not even hurt Tang Hao with one hand!

"I think you have been an official for a long time and your brain is confused, right?

"Why don't you, He Tianqu, try to cooperate? Let's see if you will be executed by everyone in your family, and your entire family will be confiscated and your clan will be exterminated!"

Especially for someone like He Tianqu who had been an official, his fame evolved into an "official body". Even if he returned to the local area, the local gentry would be polite to him and would not dare to offend him.

What He Tianqu is most worried about now is whether his evolved version of his fame will be abolished!

If he only saves his life, but ends up losing his fame and not being able to become a local gentry, how will he survive in the future?

After understanding this, Tang Hao's face suddenly darkened.

Gu Dayong also had a confused look on his face, and Tang Hao and Tang Hao were stunned and froze on the spot.

Qianqing Palace.

After passing the imperial examination, one is a Jinshi, known as the "Emperor's disciple", and has a bright future. The worst is to be released with the Jinshi, and start as a county magistrate!

These are the four titles of scholars in the Ming Dynasty, which brought them benefits and privileges far beyond ordinary people!

To put it bluntly, scholars have fame and fame. Even if they are dismissed from office and cannot become gentry in the court, they can still go back to their local areas and become gentry and country squires. By virtue of their fame and privileges, they can annex fields and accumulate some wealth for future generations. They can still be rich. No worries about food and clothing!

Tang Hao strolled up to He Tianqu and looked down at the lackey.

"Your Majesty, we haven't lost yet!"

Official status?

Because these eighteen people who committed suicide were not just cats and dogs, but serious court officials and seventh-level supervisory censors!

You said they committed suicide?

The "official status" he talks about, or to be more specific, it should be the reputation of a scholar!

These scholars' achievements were obtained through the imperial examinations, and they each had different privileges.

Zhu Houzhao was furious and kicked Gu Dayong crazily.

He Tianqu was startled when he heard this, and still roared unwillingly: "A scholar has no fame, what's the difference between that and death?"

"It's almost impossible to burn this fire on Li Dongyang and Liu Daxia again!"

Tang Hao suppressed the anger in his heart and continued to ask: "Are there ten more? Are their charges not serious?"

Especially Li Dongyang, he looked up at Tang Hao meaningfully, which made Tang Ri even more miserable!

As soon as he saw the little emperor, Gu Dayong immediately knelt down on the ground to plead guilty.

"How long can Li Dongyang live? How long can His Majesty live? There is no need to take him too seriously!"

Gu Dayong looked at the steamed bun in his hand, his face turned green and white, and then he slapped himself hard.

"Tanghou!"

Gu Dayong was also a little hesitant, but he bit the bullet and tried to dissuade him: "Tang Hou, is that not necessary?"

The previously arrogant supervisory censor was now like a dead dog, lying limply on the haystack covered in blood.

"Let's go to see the Holy Spirit together!"

What did he do with himself at this time?

Tang Hao couldn't help but frown, but he still walked over.

Who would believe it?

"Check it immediately!"

"Someone used this food to deliver news to them. It was nothing more than threatening them to commit suicide immediately to apologize, so as not to implicate the mastermind behind the scenes, so as to save their families!"

"Someone, go check it out!"

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

"If that's the case, then go die!"

In order to facilitate the operation, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the establishment of a land temple on the left side of the local government square. The execution ground where corrupt officials were skinned was placed here. Therefore, the people called this temple the "Pichang Temple".

"I am a man who doesn't accept either soft or hard advice. If you still want to threaten me with this, then you are really..."

"Tanghou, that He Tianqu wants to see you!"

The little emperor is waiting, waiting for Tang Hao, whom he respects and trusts the most, to come back to life!

"At least Zhang Fuhua's side has already done it!"

"Hahaha..." He Tianqu raised his head with difficulty and let out a cruel sneer.

The little emperor is waiting for a result.

"What?" Tang Hao chuckled and said, "Are you afraid that he will hurt me? Or are you afraid that I will kill him?"

According to the rules of Emperor Taizu Gao, those who corrupt sixty taels or more will have their heads exposed to the public and their skins will be peeled off!

The founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who hated corrupt officials extremely, showed no mercy in cracking down on corrupt officials!

"Ahem!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand hurriedly, "That's not necessary!"

Tang Hao picked up the wotou and looked at it carefully. There was indeed a medium-sized space inside, enough to put down a small note.

"You don't even know that your lair has been infiltrated?"

"Why can't you be an official anymore?"

Just kidding?

How could you, a corrupt and corrupt person like you, be allowed to continue to be an official?

Do you really think that the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty are all just for show?

"You should know very well that according to the Ming Dynasty Code, officials who are corrupt and violate the law will be severely punished. If they are supervising the corruption of the censor, the punishment will be aggravated."

Tang Hao glanced at him coldly, and then threw the bun over.

"For officials who are corrupt and pervert the law, they will never be punished; for censors who are corrupt and pervert the law, they will be sentenced to the third level, and those who are involved in corruption will be dealt with harshly!"

But now that the note has disappeared, it is very likely that He Tianqu swallowed it.

Tang Hao looked at He Tianqu's body in front of him and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

This is because people who are promoted can be directly recruited to become officials. The step from being a scholar to being promoted is actually a class change from civilians to officials!

Otherwise, why do people often refer to scholars as "poor scholars" and "failing scholars" with disdain; but when referring to candidates, they always respectfully address them as "Master"?

Otherwise, why would Fan Jin be so happy that he went crazy after winning the exam?

After being promoted, one becomes a Gongshi. The imperial court holds a general examination in the capital every three years, which is the Spring Examination. After the examination, one becomes a Gongshi, which is a predetermined Jinshi.

After Tang Hao was silent for a short time, he was too lazy to talk nonsense to this mentally ill person.

When he thought of this, Tang Hao's face became more and more gloomy.

"Your Majesty, the situation is about to open up!"

Therefore, Gu Dayong didn't bother to persuade him anymore and waved his hand directly, and the soldier immediately opened the cell door.

"Now we have lost the initiative!"

After being a scholar, there is the job of raising people. As long as the scholar passes the provincial examination held every three years in the provincial capital, also known as the Qiuwei Examination, he can obtain the second honor, the job of raising people!

On the surface, there is only one exam between them. In fact, they are worlds apart. Scholars may have some political, economic, and status privileges, but they are never officials; only by passing the Juren exam can they truly have the status of officials and become a member of the ruling class.

"Savage, this is not enough!"

Upon hearing this, the little emperor stopped and sat back in silence.

"Damn it, why are they doing this? Are they even willing to take their own lives?"

He Tianqu looked up at Tang Hao and roared with a ferocious expression.

It's a pity that after Mr. Hongwu died of illness, his severe punishments against corrupt officials were instantly abolished by his good emperor Zhu Yunwen. Even after Emperor Yongle usurped the throne and ascended the throne, these severe punishments were not restored, which made people Sorry!

Therefore, it is difficult for Tang Hao to understand at this moment, what is He Tianqu thinking?

The evidence of his corruption and perversion of the law is conclusive, and the amount is as high as 20,000 silver. Even if it is not beheaded, he still wants to keep his official status, and he still wants to continue to be an official!

"Then you are the home base of Xichang!"

Zhu Houzhao, who was still full of hope, immediately became extremely angry after hearing Gu Dayong's report, and kicked the West Factory Admiral to the ground with his feet!

"You loser!"

If Ke Dao Yan Guan Chao Tianque fails, these people will naturally not be saved.

This time was undoubtedly the most intense battle between the emperor and civil servants!

At this moment, the six ministers, the censor of the capital, the general envoy, and the minister of Dali Temple all knelt down outside the Qianqing Palace, forcing Zhu Houzhao to release Zhang Fuhua and other officials!

I have to admit that the little emperor is under a lot of pressure now!

Even Renshou Palace and Kunning Palace have learned the news and have sent people to inquire several times.

"Gu Dayong, you, the Admiral of Xichang, have really opened my eyes once again. Even your Xichang Prison has been infiltrated into a sieve!"

"Marquis Zhongshan, I want a promise from you!"

When they arrived at He Tianqu's cell, the air was filled with the smell of blood.

It’s obvious that I can’t bear the torture of you cruel officials like hawks and dogs!

Next comes the real trouble!

Tang Hao sighed and immediately ordered.

This rebuttal was so powerful that I was speechless!

"And you, Censor He, have stolen tens of thousands of taels of corrupted silver. It is a blessing to be able to save your life and avoid being executed by everyone!"

Tang Hao smiled indifferently upon hearing this.

Damn it, in the face of life and death, you still want fame!

Did I really give you face and make you feel that you are okay again?

When Tang Hao heard this, he immediately narrowed his eyes.

Tang Hao curled his lips disdainfully.

The arrogant little emperor!

Today's first update, Li Dongyang responded quickly and killed people, but Tang Hao has not lost yet. Readers and friends, please vote for it, thank you very much!
