After binding the mistress system, raise cubs and train husbands in the mansion
Chapter 220 Heavy Rain Falls from the Sky
Xie Boyuan did not hesitate for a moment and ordered, "Come here, let Pan Dahu sign and seal."
"Yes!"
The guard wrote down the charges one by one and placed them in front of him, "Sign it."
Pan Dahu sighed and placed his fingerprint on the charge.
"Thank you, sir. I have admitted my crime. Can you let my family go?"
Xie Boyuan and the princess looked at each other and said, "Of course! I won't break my promise."
"Pan Dahu abused his power to bully others, raped women, bribed court officials, and committed murder and arson. His crimes are extremely serious. Considering that you have confessed voluntarily, I, in compliance with the emperor's order, will exempt the Pan family from beheading."
"You can escape the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment of life. Confiscate all the Pan family's property, exile all the Pan family members to Lingnan, and sell their servants as slaves!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Pan Dahu asked, "Sir, you didn't say you wanted to confiscate all your belongings, did you?"
"Humph! What a joke! Do I need to consult with a scumbag like you before I can make a judgment?"
"No, no, that's not what I meant." Pan Dahu seemed to have just burst into tears. If his father knew that the family's decline was due to him, he would probably be so angry that he would die immediately.
"Come here! Send someone to the Pan family to search their property immediately."
"Yes!"
A group of people came to the Pan family in a mighty manner.
When Pan's father learned that his son was beaten by the people, he wanted to take people to settle the score, but he didn't expect that a high-ranking official came to the capital and had just dismissed the county magistrate.
He panicked instantly and didn't care about his son's life or death. He immediately asked people to pack up things in the house and prepare to escape.
But just when they were halfway through cleaning up, the government officials kicked the door open.
"Arrest all members of the Pan family. From now on, no one can enter the Pan family and leave!"
"Yes!"
"Sir, what are you doing? My Pan family is upright and aboveboard. I'm sure there must be some misunderstanding here."
Xie Boyuan glanced at him and said, "You are Pan Dahu's father, Pan Zhang, right?"
"It is me, may I ask who you are, sir?"
Guard Jiang answered quickly, "This is the Minister of Personnel of the imperial court, Mr. Xie Boyuan."
"It turns out to be Mr. Xie. I have heard of your great name for a long time. What are you doing..."
Pan Zhang had heard of the Xie family a long time ago. Qingyang County and Fengshui County were not far from each other, so he had heard of the name of County Master Yun Zhihan and naturally knew her children.
Xie Baiyuan didn't waste any words and directly handed him Pan Dahu's confession.
"Your son has confessed all his crimes. Now I am confiscating all the property of the Pan family."
When Pan Zhang heard this, he quit immediately. He said his son could die, but his property must not be confiscated. This was his life savings.
"Sir, is there any misunderstanding here?"
"Detain Pan Zhang."
"Yes!"
Following the instructions given by his mother, Xie Boyuan turned the Pan family upside down. The total amount of properties, big and small, was innumerable, which made everyone sigh: This money-making ability is enviable.
"Sir, we found two million taels of silver, 100,000 taels of gold, and countless gold and silver jewelry and silks in the Pan family."
"Very good! Half of the Pan family's wealth will be used to help the people of Fengshui County and alleviate their suffering. The rest of the money will be deposited in the capital and will be sent to the emperor for his decision."
"Yes!"
Bai Yuan was so happy. He had never seen so much money in his life. This time, Xie's army would no longer have to worry about military pay and food.
Moreover, he has obtained His Majesty's permission that he can deal with the confiscated silver on his own and does not need to hand it over to the imperial treasury.
The next day, after Bai Yuan and the princess had dealt with the affairs of Fengshui County, they asked the governor who had just recovered from a serious illness to temporarily take over the job of county magistrate. The handover would be carried out after the new county magistrate arrived.
In order to supervise him, Bai Yuan temporarily kept Jiang Feng in Fengshui County to ensure that the people could get the compensation they deserved.
When they were leaving the city gate, a group of people came spontaneously to see them off, kneeling on the ground and shouting their names.
"Farewell, Minister Xie, and Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
"Thank you, sir. You are our great judge. The people of Fengshui County will never forget the kindness you and Her Royal Highness the Princess have shown us."
"Everyone, please stand up!" Bai Yuan shouted, "This is the emperor's order. I am just doing my job. If you want to thank someone, thank the emperor."
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Long live the emperor!"
At once, everyone started shouting as well.
Just as they were about to leave, the sky suddenly became overcast, and all of a sudden, heavy rain fell from the sky. The rain that the people had been waiting for for two years finally came.
Upon seeing this, Bai Yuan quickly winked at the Imperial Observatory.
He immediately understood, pretending to see through the secret, and shouted, "The emperor's grace is so great that it has moved the heavens. The people of Fengshui will be free from disasters and worries from now on!"
When the people heard this, they were so excited that they couldn't express it in words and shouted even louder.
Xie Boyuan thought it was almost done and they had to hurry back to report.
Less than a day after the incident happened, the news spread throughout the entire Shangjing City and the surrounding counties.
Those people who were still living in dire straits prayed every day that Minister Xie would come to their county and help them drive away all the bullies in the county.
royal palace.
"Your Majesty, thank you Minister and Princess for your audience!"
"Hurry up!"
Murong Yan knew something about what happened in Fengshui County, but he didn't know the details. He only heard that the people knelt on the ground and shouted, "The emperor is wise."
The people all said that it was his grace that made the heavy rain fall from the sky after two years. For the emperor, what could be happier than an auspicious sign?
After a while, they arrived at the Qianqing Palace.
"I am here to pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
"I have seen your Majesty."
"Prince Consort, elder sister, please don't be polite. I heard that you have made great achievements in Fengshui County. Is that true?"
"Thanks to the emperor's approval, I was able to handle the case so smoothly." Xie Baiyuan had someone place 20% of the property at the gate of the palace.
"Your Majesty, there is a box of gold, silver and jewelry at the gate of the Qianqing Palace, which is probably more than 20% of the total property. I have sent the rest to the Ministry of War and Commander Xie. These are left for Your Majesty to replenish the treasury."
"Thank you, Minister, for your kindness. Come here! Reward!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Murong Yan was so happy that he could not express it in words. It was indeed a wise move for him to let Bai Yuan go. Not only did it win him fame, but he also brought back so much money. It was really killing two birds with one stone.
"Your Highness's trip this time has won the support of the people. I order you to be the imperial envoy to go to other counties and solve the people's suffering. Are you willing?"
"I am willing!"
"it is good!"
They were happy, but some ministers in the court were angry. Xie Boyuan's actions undoubtedly touched a big piece of their cheese.
The most angry among them was the Minister of War Xue Huan. It was bad enough that his brother-in-law was exiled, but the key point was that all his family property was confiscated and sent directly to Xie Bochen.
How could he swallow this anger when the two brothers sang the same tune and he didn't even get a cup of soup?
Humph! He is the Minister of War, and he is still the one who escorts the baggage. Since the Xie family is ruthless, don't blame him for being disloyal.
