After a while, everyone arrived at the temporary burial area.
This was the bottom of a mountain. When the Fourth Master approached, he smelled a decayed body.
Zhang Tingyu and Su Peisheng who followed him couldn't help frowning.
But the Fourth Master didn't cover his nose, and they didn't dare to cover it, but the stomach was churning.
After approaching, I saw that besides some villagers, there were still corpses piled up in the mountains.
Seeing that there are hundreds of people stacked under the mountain.
Although Si Ye has been to many places these days, he has seen many such scenes.
But when he saw this scene, his calm eyes still turned scarlet.
But his heart is not numb, but he wants to manage this place even more.
When any emperor was in office, he would not feel better when he saw this situation.
Every emperor hoped that the world under his control would be peaceful.
Who wants to see people who don’t live and die hungry?
At this time, the villagers met the Fourth Master and gathered in front of the Fourth Master, crying and shouting there.
The guards wanted to pull them away, and the fourth master waved his hand to tell them not to act on the bosses.
Then, he looked at the villagers with scarlet eyes, and said in a majestic voice: "Everyone, don't worry, I am here today to solve problems for you, so that you can live a good life and rebuild your home."
After the people heard it, they just kowtow and mourn.
Upon seeing this, Fourth Master said again: "I personally came to your Zhuangzi to listen to the opinions and suggestions of the people. If you have any difficulties, even if you say it, the court will help you."
The reason why I came here in person was that I wanted the relief supplies to be fully verified by the people.
In addition, he also wanted to listen to the voices of the people and see where the problems were.
Otherwise, those officials would only report nice reports on the memorials every time.
All bad things are concealed.
If it were as good as it was written in the memorial, would it be what it is now?
Hearing what Si Ye said, those people didn't dare to speak at first.
Because they are just ordinary farmers, they are worried that they will be retaliated by those officials after they have said it.
When Si Ye saw them hesitating to speak, he probably guessed why they dare not speak.
A face that has always been cold and cold, it rarely looks a little friendly.
But at the same time, it reveals an extremely majestic and domineering king.
He held his lips and said, "If the sky does not rain, that is something God decides. But sometimes, human greed is more terrible than disaster. If it were not for the inaction of the local government, the court's money would have been used to build water channels. , Where is this scene."
The translation is: I already know that the government is not doing anything. Just tell them, and I will deal with them.
As it is, drought is not terrible.
If the canal is repaired, food can also be planted.
But the government embezzled money, which led to such a catastrophe.
Even Zhang Tingyu on the side said: "Don't have any worries, the emperor will be the master for you."
At this moment, the villagers looked at each other.
Then, an older woman took the lead in speaking.
"The emperor, we don’t have much money to grow crops. In addition to the drought in the land, we can’t grow much food every year. But local officials collect a lot of food taxes from us, and it’s more than a year. Are you forced to die?"
"Yes, a few years ago, I heard that the imperial court helped in other difficult areas. Some villagers in difficulties would not starve to death without talking about getting married. But when we got here, there were no disabled households. With a little help, there was a drought, and I had to wait day by day and night by night until it was buried in the yellow ground."
"By the way, local officials also invaded the land and harvested dozens of acres of land from my family to grow cotton, but I didn't have a place to grow some corn when I wanted to grow some corn."
"Also, this time there is a drought, and the water in the reservoir has also dried up. We are doing aquaculture and we have suffered heavy losses."
So so...
Si Ye stood there, listening to the voices of the people very patiently.
Although he had known the inaction of the officials, he did not know that they were so inaction.
They not only overcharged the people’s food tax, embezzled the supplies provided by the court to the people in need, but also invaded the people’s land...
After a while, after the people had finished speaking, the Fourth Master asked Zhang Tingyu to write them down.
And handed the relief materials this time to the chief and villagers.
At the same time, he personally took the guards with the villagers to bury the villagers who had starved to death on the mountain.
Due to time constraints, he did not stay in this village much and went to the next village to be inspected.
Three days later, Si Ye handled the Baoping Mansion almost, and he could basically return to Beijing.
There are just some things that need to be dealt with.
With a thunderous speed, he ordered the homes of dozens of local officials in Baoping Mansion to be copied.
All the property that was ransacked was used for disaster relief.
In addition, he also ordered the decapitation of the twelve officials on the city gate of Baoping Mansion, the decapitation of the Ling Chi, the decapitation of the waist, the cooking of cooking, the peeling of the skin, the cracking of the car...
Anyway, the ten major tortures in the Qing Dynasty, I can't wait to take turns to be performed on these people.
Even so, his face still looked upright.
Because in his opinion, the lives of tens of thousands of people are nothing compared to this point of torture.
Perhaps no one would have imagined that such a cold-blooded emperor listened to the voices of the people in the disaster area a few days ago, brought them disaster relief materials, and solved one after another.
However, Zhang Tingyu felt that these scenes were too cruel, so they tentatively reminded: "The emperor, although their sins are unforgivable, they can't all use such brutal torture. This... it is really destructive. Your image in the hearts of ordinary people."
Originally, the emperor had done the relief work himself, and his reputation in the local area was quite good.
But if torture was carried out so cruelly, it would scare the ordinary people.
Moreover, when the emperor ascended the throne, the Eighth Master and the Nine Masters murdered their fathers in the rumor, and they crippled each other.
In this way, the image that has finally been accumulated will be destroyed.
The Fourth Master knew what Zhang Tingyu meant, and even knew that they were for his good.
After the deep ink pupil turned slightly, he said, "That's it, let the three most sinful Lingchi beheaded or beheaded for the rest."
In this way, the original ten torture scenes have been slightly changed.
Immediately afterwards, while discussing with several ministers of Zhang Tingyu, Si Ye said:
"Also, when killing corrupt officials, you can't just let the people watch it. You should ask the officials to watch it too. No one is not allowed. I just want them to take a good look. It's frightening to see, and the bones and bones are soft and soft. Seeing fascinated, dreaming! In this way, when their black eyes are staring at the silver, they will be shocked, they have to weigh and weigh, they can’t do things too extreme, they have to give ideas to Save your own way!"
He also said:
These officials all claim to be disciples of Confucius and Mencius. It’s more effective to let them see this scene than to read one hundred "The Analects" and "Mencius" in a house. many!"
