The strongest Marquis in history

"Will do."

Zhu Shanchang said solemnly: "Although Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, he is reasonable. What's more, the territory of the Daqi Kingdom is already vast enough, and it needs to be slowed down."

Lan Yuzheng nodded emphatically.

"It's back, His Majesty's army is back."

Suddenly, there was a loud cry.

Someone discovered that a mighty army appeared ahead.

Zhu Shanchang looked up, saw the distance, and found flying flags one after another.A mighty army is advancing rapidly, galloping towards Chang'an City, the distance is getting closer and closer.

Wang Qi is back.

Chapter 1123

The army led by Wang Qi galloped towards the gate of the city.

In a short time, they approached Chang'an City.

Zhu Shanchang personally led all the civil and military officials, and quickly moved forward to the front of the army.As the head of civil servants, Zhu Shanchang took the lead in bowing and saluting: "Minister Zhu Shanchang, I pay my respects to Your Majesty. My emperor, long live long live long live long live."

"Meet Your Majesty."

"Meet Your Majesty."

The sound of the mountain shouting like a tsunami resounded through the gate of the city.

More and more officials chanted.

Everyone shouted in unison.

When everyone shouted, they all knelt on the ground to greet them.Even around, there are countless people watching from afar.

For the people of Qi, they are now living in a prosperous age.Because without Wang Qi, there would be no Qi State today.Without Wang Qi, there would be no peace for the people.

When Wang Qi returned triumphantly, the people were very excited.

All the officials are also delighted.

Wang Qi stood up on his horse. He stood on the horse's back and swept over the officials kneeling on the ground, with a look of pride on his face.

He is back.

Qi State is stronger.

Wang Qi took a deep breath, his true essence circulated, he waved his hands and said, "Zhu Qing, be flat."

The sound is thick and loud, echoing in the air, and it lasts for a long time.All officials, without exception, heard Wang Qi's words.When these officials heard the voice, they all stood up and looked at Wang Qi with even more awe in their eyes.

Everyone in the world knows that today's son is both civil and military.

His literary talent is rare in the world.

His martial arts are all over the world.

Under such a premise, Wang Qi's voice clearly reached everyone's ears, which showed Wang Qi's strength.

Wang Qi ordered: "Enter the city!"

All the officials retreated to make way for a path, and Wang Qi rode in the front on horseback.Then came the cabinet headed by Zhu Shanchang, the military staff, and the rest of the civil and military officials.

In the end, it was the army led by the generals who entered the city together.

Wang Qi rode in the front on horseback and entered the city without haste.At this time, Wang Qi also appreciates Chang'an today.The entire Chang'an City has been expanded in recent years, with some additions, making it more prosperous and magnificent.

The streets in the city are as wide as ever.

There are as many people as ever.

Qi State is still prosperous.

Wang Qi saw it in his eyes and approved in his heart.The current state of Qi was created by Wang Qi.

"Your Majesty, I want to file a complaint and ask Your Majesty to seek justice."

Suddenly, in front of the street, someone rushed out.The people who rushed out had muddy faces, dirty clothes, and ragged clothes.Although the weather in April is quite warm now.But the person who came was barefoot, his trouser legs were rotten, his clothes were thin, and his hair was tangled together in strands.

This looks like a beggar.

The beggar rushed out to complain, and the crowd following Wang Qi all looked stern.

Zhu Shanchang's face was tense, and he looked at Lan Yu with sharp eyes.Because the road was closed to greet them, it was arranged by Lan Yu.

Lan Yu frowned, and said in a low voice: "Shoufu, I have arranged people to watch along the way, and even soldiers to block the way. Especially the people from the Supervision Department are all around, so I didn't expect that something went wrong. What's more, it's still a grievance. It was really unexpected, it was so sudden."

Zhu Shanchang gave Lan Yu a hard look.

No wonder Zhu Shanchang was angry. He stayed in Chang'an for several years, and he has been doing things conscientiously and going all out to deal with government affairs.All along, there have been no problems.In the blink of an eye, when Wang Qi led his army back in triumph, such a problem happened.

If someone is wrongfully sued, it means that all his achievements will be erased.

This is what Zhu Shanchang cares about.

Zhu Shanchang sighed in his heart, he could only let the situation develop at this time.Because in front of Wang Qi, this matter is out of control for the time being, and he cannot interfere.

Wang Qi frowned slightly as he looked at the person rushing out.Seeing that the soldiers blocking the way were about to stop him, he waved his hand, and all the soldiers who rushed out retreated.

The beggar who rushed out came straight to Wang Qi.

Wang Qidao: "What's your name, what grievance do you want to appeal for?"

The beggar plopped, knelt down in front of Wang Qi, and reported: "Reporting to Your Majesty, my name is Zhang Yannian, and I am the county magistrate of Puyang County in Yanzhou. I want to sue Yang Xiong, the prefect of Dongjun County, for colluding with local gangsters and evil forces to plunder local money. , Kidnapping people to dig mines, and wantonly killing people, please Your Majesty call the shots."

boom! !

The street was like a thunderstorm exploding on the ground.

Zhu Shanchang, Lan Yu and other cabinet officials were all dumbfounded.The other six ministries, as well as officials from the Dali Temple, the Supervision Department, and other ministries, were all shocked.

The county magistrate complained.

Still so tattered.

This situation is different.

Even when such a thing happened in Dongjun County, the imperial court did not take any action, did not have any reaction, and did not know anything about it.For the imperial court, it is tantamount to incompetence, and it is tantamount to not governing the place well.

Especially, it was at the critical moment when Wang Qi had just returned to Chang'an.All the civil and military officials cheered up, as if they foresaw that there would be a storm in the future.

The situation is serious.

After listening to Zhang Yannian's words, Wang Qi's eyes became serious.What a wrong for a county magistrate to be forced to this point.What kind of threat did this county magistrate bear?

It just doesn't make sense.

Wang Qi never got angry, and ordered: "Come into the palace with me, and I will personally listen to your explanation of the situation in Puyang County."

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Zhang Yannian shouted immediately.

There was a look of excitement in those eyes. He was finally able to see the moon when the clouds opened. Since the end of last year, he left Puyang County, fled and begged all the way, and he paid too much for redressing his grievances.

Now, it's finally time.

Wang Qi stopped talking and rode straight to the imperial city.

Civil and military officials also followed.

So did Zhang Yannian.

On the way, the accompanying army had already left and went to station themselves.The imperial army led by Xia Houhu still followed, Hui Dai returned to the imperial city, Xia Houhu led the army back to the imperial city again, and took over the city defense.

Wang Qi brought everyone back to the main hall.He took everyone directly to the main hall.

Wang Qi looked at Zhang Yannian standing in the hall, and said, "Zhang Yannian, what grievances do you have? Explain them one by one in front of civil and military officials. No matter what kind of grievances you encounter, no matter how difficult and difficult things you encounter , I make the decision for you. Earlier, you just gave a general idea. The specific situation was never explained clearly. Now, I will explain it clearly."

At this moment, Wang Qi's voice came out of the hall, and there was no sound.

All officials are quite depressed.

Zhang Yannian knelt on the ground, knocked his head on the ground, and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the cause of the incident should start from the end of November last year. At that time, in Puyang County, people reported to the officials, saying that someone was lost."

"It wasn't a big deal at the beginning. After all, it's not surprising that people got lost. However, it happened for a long time, and more than [-] people were lost."

"This situation is not a small number. I started to investigate this matter. In the end, I followed the clues and found a coal mine in Puyang County. The people in the coal mine are all slaves, and they are all lost people."

"These people were arrested and engaged in mining work. There were even children in their teens. All of them were imprisoned in darkness. They were all skinny and miserable."

Whoa! !

In the main hall, there are already discussions.

Teenagers.

You must know that under the rule of the Qi State, schools and education are being built everywhere to improve the knowledge of the people.Even, all children are required to study, so children in their teens are still studying.

Now, there are children in their teens who have been kidnapped to mine.

This is a big deal.

Pairs of eyes fell on Zhang Yannian's body, with probing eyes, because this matter will inevitably cause waves.

Wang Qi glanced at the hall, and said: "Shut up, everyone, anyone who talks about it, get out."

In the hall, there was silence.

Wang Qidao: "Zhang Yannian, continue talking."

"Here!"

Zhang Yannian replied again.

Chapter 1124 The Storm

There was a hint of resentment on Zhang Yannian's face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, after careful investigation, I discovered the situation in the mine. At that time, there was no hesitation or consideration of avoiding it, so I mobilized the troops of Puyang County. , ready to go to seal the mine.”

"It's just that my minister, Yulu, didn't know at the time that Yang Xiu, the prefect of Dongjun, secretly supported it. I didn't even know that the gangsters in this place are so powerful, but I went there recklessly."

"I don't know, I just left the county office, and the news has already leaked."

"The team I led hadn't arrived at the mine yet. On the way, they encountered robbers. In Qi State, under the bright sky, where did the robbers come from? They are just the gang behind the mine, and they sent people to rob and kill them."

"The people on the other side are very vicious. The people in my county government were killed and defeated. The reason why I can survive is because there is a swift river near the place where the fight was fought."

"Facing the persecution of these gang members, I had no choice but to jump into the river to escape, was washed away by the current, and survived by luck. But I didn't expect that after I survived by chance, I got the A message."

"Yang Xiong, the prefect of Dongjun, directly issued a notice. I led the troops out of the city and was robbed by bandits, so that I died."

Zhang Yannian looked choked up, biting his teeth, "Your Majesty, this Yang Xiong is extremely greedy. He controls many mines in Puyang County and even in Dongjun."

"Besides, the other party fought against dissidents and dismissed many county magistrates, all of whom were promoted to office."

"Today's Dongjun is a mess."

"Your Majesty, please learn from me."

"At that time, Chen found himself dead. So for the time being, he didn't dare to show up again, so he kept pretending to be a beggar and hid in secret to investigate carefully. This investigation revealed the details of the gang and Yang Xiong's more greedy nature." Condition."

"Everything has been verified. I dare not report it to Yanzhou, because I am worried that Yang Xiong has a spy. So I wandered from Dongjun all the way to Chang'an. It's just that I don't know what's going on in the court, so I dare not complain."

"Just when His Majesty returned, Cao Min dared to come out."

"Your Majesty, please make the decision."

Zhang Yannian slammed his head on the ground with a bang, and said in a deep voice, "I don't expect your Majesty to be the master of the matter. Because this time, I acted recklessly and something went wrong."

"If I investigate secretly first, find out the situation, and then inform the supervisory department of Puyang County or Dong County, it will be more than that. What I mourn is that these innocent people, even children in their teens, have been kidnapped When they got to the mine, they were forced to mine.”

"These people are innocent, please Your Majesty to decide."

In the hall, there was no sound.

Everyone, be silent.

All the officials were terrified.

Especially Zhu Shanchang, the chief assistant of the ruling cabinet, under his governance, such a thing happened.

Zhu Shanchang cannot escape the blame.

In fact, Zhu Shanchang felt a little helpless in his heart.It's no wonder he was involved in Dongjun's affairs. After all, as the chief assistant of the cabinet, he was so busy every day that he had so many things to do.Who would have thought that corruption and even kidnapping of people occurred in Dongjun County.
