The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 428 It's all here
These officials already sensed that something was very wrong in the atmosphere.

The person who can make the magistrate kneel on the ground must have a high official position.

It can be seen that Lin Hai and Yuhua Shi are so young.

It left them scratching their heads again.

If you dare to make the prefect kneel down, you must be doing something bad.

These people secretly communicated with their eyes and became more cautious.

"I have met the magistrate!"

"You don't need to salute him. Just stand aside and wait!" Lin Hai ordered without even bothering to look at them.

"Who are you to speak like this to me?" an indifferent magistrate asked loudly.

"These two are the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Lord Lin, the Imperial Envoy, and Lord Yu, Marshal of the Northern Army!"

Stone said loudly.

All these county magistrates were shocked and stood aside obediently.

He lowered his head and conveyed the message quietly.

The imperial court actually sent an imperial envoy and he quietly came to Haidong.

This is not a good thing for them.

And when they saw even the prefect kneeling on the ground and writing something, they all felt even more uneasy.

Could it be that this was a reason to seize the prefect and ask him to hand over the evidence?

If that were the case, then none of them, the officials, would be able to escape.

After all, there are almost no officials in Haidong who are not corrupt from top to bottom.

They have long since driven out all the good and upright officials, or suffered suppression, leaving no good officials behind.

Lin Hai ignored them and sipped tea with Yuhua Shi.

I also found a Go chess player, and the two of them chatted while playing chess.

Finally, a county magistrate couldn't bear it anymore and asked cautiously: "You two sirs came to Haidong, and for some reason you made the prefect kneel on the ground?
Let me wait for the officials to come over. If you need anything, just ask. "

"Don't worry, when the prefect writes out everything he confessed, it will be your turn!"

Lin Hai replied without looking back.

Now all the county magistrates were shocked.

The prefect had already confessed, so how could they have a chance to escape?
Although the weather was very cold, everyone was so frightened that they were sweating profusely.

Now some people are so frightened that they are shaking all over.

Kneel directly on the ground.

"Did you see that he collapsed on the ground before even being interrogated?

In normal times, he is very powerful in bullying the people, but at critical moments, he is so timid. "Yu Huashi said with a sneer.

"Yes, if I had known this, why would I do it in the first place?"

The words spoken by the two men were engraved in the hearts of these officials like knives.

They looked outside quietly, and even had the idea of ​​running away immediately.

But the government officials were already blocking the door.

Even if you run away, where can you go?
"It seems that what you two are doing is against the rules. The prefect must be a fourth-grade official appointed by the imperial court.

Even if he made a mistake, he should be tried according to the law.

But he was so humiliated by the two adults.

I want to report to the imperial court and ask for justice! "

There was a man named Leng Touqing who couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere anymore and shouted loudly.

Lin Hai glanced at him, with a smile on his face.

"Oh, I didn't expect that there are still officials with integrity in Haidong's official circles."

"Humph, I stand upright, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

Lin Hai praised him and actually let him pull him up.

"Act upright and stand upright! OK, if you are really an upright official, I will promote you to the position of prefect.

If you are a corrupt official who is plundering people's wealth and support, you will be dragged out and beheaded immediately. "

The county magistrate's expression changed after hearing this.

"You are judging the case indiscriminately and falsely accusing officials!"

"Hmph, I have plenty of evidence. Just wait slowly. The evidence produced will definitely satisfy you!"

After Lin Hai finished speaking, he stopped talking to him and continued playing chess.

The county magistrate was very angry at first, but after a while his face became increasingly gloomy and uncertain.

Not long after, he showed a look of fear.

Other officials were so frightened that their legs became weak.

From time to time someone collapsed on the ground.

Although they are usually on the same side, they are under the leadership of the prefect.

Now even the leader is writing evidence of guilt.

How could they, the low-level officials below, escape?

The more he didn't interrogate them, the more uneasy he felt.

Because they don't know what evidence the imperial envoy has.

The more I thought about it, the weaker I felt.

"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy, everything that I know is already in this article!" The prefect held up what he had written, but he no longer had the strength to stand up.

Stone took the offering.

Lin Hai simply glanced at it and showed it to the officials in his hand.

"The evidence is here, which one of you dares to say that you are an upright official, and which one is innocent.

Stand up for me! "

With a roar, all the officials knelt on the ground.

"Sir, please forgive me! I was just confused for a moment, please give me another chance!"

"Hmph, you bastards who have been stabbed a thousand times. When you are an official, you don't make decisions for the people, and you bully them.

Do you still have the nerve to beg for mercy in front of me? "

“Someone, put them all on death row and hold them separately.

Everything you do must be clearly explained.

Anyone who dares to hide anything will be punished with severe punishment! "

After Lin Hai gave the order, he ignored the officials' whining and begging for mercy.

Shitou led the government officials and his men to put all these officials in prison.

Checked it carefully again.

Release those innocent people from prison.

Then put up notices and try their best to arrest the Salt Gang members.

Let the people come to complain and provide evidence of being oppressed.

Not only were all the government officials dispatched, but the Northern Expeditionary Army also dispatched five hundred elite soldiers to arrest the Salt Gang members.

As if in an instant, the people felt that Haidong had suddenly changed.

After seeing the notice, I felt incredible.

Some people even doubt that this is true.

"When did we have an imperial envoy here?"

"Let's wait and see. The Imperial Envoy has been here before, but it was just a process and nothing serious could be done."

"That's right. The thunder is louder and the raindrops are lighter. Those who complained last time were in bad luck!"

"Let's see if this imperial envoy can do it. If he can really bring down these corrupt officials, it will be a blessing to our people!"

Lin Hai and Yuhuashi finally finished playing chess.

Yuhuashi couldn't help but ask: "Are you sure you won't interrogate these officials anymore?"

"What else is there to try? All these officials should be killed anyway, and the evidence is almost collected.

Just let the people come to give evidence in these two days, and then take them out and behead them. "

"This seems to be somewhat inconsistent with the rules of the law, and I am afraid that the imperial censors and officials will object.

Although it is certain that all these corrupt officials deserve to die, they must follow the court's procedures.

If there are stupid officials in the future who act according to your approach, wouldn't it be a harm to good officials? "Yu Huashi reminded with a worried look.
