In the days when I was dressed as the king of a subjugated country

Gu Li never expected that the case of Prime Minister Mu would involve a dark net that had been lurking in the court for a long time!

What made him even more unbelievable was that Nie Guangyu was actually the murderer who killed Xie Xingcun and Prime Minister Mu!And he is holding the so-called voting certificate, manipulating everything behind the scenes!

It is not the first time that Jiang Yun, the minister of the household department, has helped him with work. When he went out to build water conservancy facilities, he used Jiang Yun to tamper with the account books of the household department, modify the number of people, and embezzled more than 3000 taels of silver.In addition, there are all kinds of things that favor relatives and friends, and harm the public and private interests, which were also involved one by one this time.

Nie Guangyu really disappointed him.

The position of the Prime Minister of the Taipu Temple is too magical. Whether it is Fu Shaoge or Nie Guangyu, as soon as they leave the position of the Chancellor of the Dali Temple, they start acting like demons. The Feng Shui of the Taipu Temple is wrong!

He went to see Nie Guangyu once in the dungeon, but Nie Guangyu was not as calm as Fu Shaoge back then, when he saw him coming, he confessed his mistake and begged him for mercy, and said that he had a lovely wife and young son at home, and he really couldn't let go.

Gu Li asked him: "When you did these things, didn't you think about your wife and children?"

Nie Guangyu said: "I have no choice! If I don't harm others, others will harm me! I was forced!"

Gu Li asked him: "Killing Xie Xingcun and Prime Minister Mu were also forced?"

Nie Guangyu's eyes were fierce: "What can I do? They have to force me. Let my wife and brother go, turn a blind eye, it's good for everyone, but Xie Xingcun just wants to hold on!"

On that rainy night, Nie Guangyu, who had been paying attention to the cattle breeding case, just came out of the Sanfa Division. When he walked into the alley, he met Xie Xingcun who came rushing in the rain, and greeted him in a strange way.

Xie Xingcun exchanged greetings with him, saying that he had come to the Sanju Division to inquire about the cattle breeding case.When Nie Guangyu heard about the cattle breed case, he was shocked.However, what Xie Xingcun wanted to ask was about his wife and brother.

In order to win over his wife and brother, Nie Guangyu lost all face, and the handle was still in the hands of others, so he had to be controlled by others. If he was to fall short, and the bamboo basket was empty, how could he be willing?

It was a rainy night and there was no one around, so Nie Guangyu had the idea of ​​killing.

Xie Xingcun greeted him and continued walking.Nie Guangyu picked up the stone from the corner of the wall and smashed it down on the back of his head.

"It was you who did the wrong thing first. Xie Guijian was just fulfilling his duties. That's the kind of person he is!"

Gu Li recalled Xie Xingcun's eloquent words to Prime Minister Mu: "The salary of the emperor is the worry of the loyalty of the emperor. Since I am in charge of the Ministry of Officials, I must be worthy of the salary that His Majesty gave me!"

Xie Xingcun is such a fool!

Gu Li had already noticed that Nie Guangyu obviously didn't think he was at fault, or that although he had a small fault, the others were forced.He couldn't help being a little disappointed, and asked, "What about Prime Minister Mu? You went out to control the water, but Prime Minister Mu recommended you. He has shown you kindness. Is this how you repay him?"

Nie Guangyu said: "Prime Minister Mu recommended me, isn't it because I have the talent for water control? My achievements are all accumulated by myself bit by bit. I blew up the canal by the Yellow River and was buried in the sand Bottom line, after a narrow escape, shouldn’t it be right to receive these honorary awards?”

Gu Li lost his voice and said: "Nie Guangyu, why...how did you become like this? You received the salary of the imperial court and worked for the imperial court. It is a matter of course. I remember that when Zhang Ci'er besieged the capital, you and Fu Shaoge went to the wall together Yuanjing, you were not what you are now!"

Nie Guangyu sneered and said: "At that time, my mind was full of stupid thoughts of being loyal to the emperor, serving the country, solving problems for the people, devoting myself to death, and dying! Too stupid, too stupid! Ideals can't be eaten, I prepared them in the capital. When I was looked down upon and ridiculed, I realized that clinging to this so-called ideal is nothing but ridiculous self-comfort."

"But Prime Minister Mu has no grievances with you. Even if you don't want to repay his kindness, you shouldn't kill him!"

"What can I do!"

That night, an imperial banquet was held in the palace. After eating the banquet, Nie Guangyu came out of the palace slowly, a little drunk.When passing by the official office, Prime Minister Mu stopped him.

Nie Guangyu saluted him, and seeing him coming out of the official office, he couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.Prime Minister Mu smiled and said, "It's freezing cold, Minister Nie, let's go back together."

Nie Guangyu asked: "Prime Minister Mu's servant hasn't come yet? Why don't you go back in my sedan chair?"

Prime Minister Mu shook his head: "I just had a drink, and I'm a little drunk. Let's take a walk and blow the cold wind to sober up."

Looking at him like this, it seemed that he had something to say to himself, so Nie Guangyu supported Prime Minister Mu and walked out slowly with him.

Prime Minister Mu asked him: "Your brother-in-law Hong Guang was transferred from Nanzhili to Huguang last year. Didn't he celebrate the New Year in the locality this year?"

Nie Guangyu replied subconsciously: "Yes, my wife misses him a lot, just such a younger brother."

As soon as the words were spoken, Nie Guangyu broke out in a cold sweat belatedly.Prime Minister Mu knew that He Hongguang was his brother-in-law?Why did he suddenly mention Hong Guang?

Prime Minister Mu's next words scared him even more.

Prime Minister Mu asked: "In the case of Niu Chuan, it was you who cleared up the matter for his wife and younger brother, so that he could escape unscathed."

Nie Guangyu's hands and feet were cold and he couldn't speak.

Prime Minister Mu turned around and looked at him: "Servant Nie, I advise you to surrender as soon as possible. Your Majesty is a person who cherishes talents and is magnanimous. If you take the initiative to confess your crimes, I will advise him to give you a lighter punishment."

Nie Guangyu's heart was beating like a drum, the blood rushed straight to the top of his head, his eardrums were so loud that he couldn't hear anything.

He just kept thinking that he had finally come to this point, he absolutely had to turn himself in, and he couldn't let someone uncover this case and ruin his painstaking efforts over the past few years!

"Prime Minister Mu has already found the evidence, but he didn't tell Yu Zhen first, but went to you instead. This is a chance he gave you!"

Prime Minister Mu is so stupid. If he directly handed over the evidence to Gu Li, nothing would happen.But he wanted to give Nie Guangyu a chance, but Nie Guangyu wanted to kill him.

Nie Guangyu's mentality has been distorted. Even if Prime Minister Mu wanted to give him a chance, he would not be grateful.

Sure enough, I heard Nie Guangyu say: "Prime Minister Mu wants to give me a chance, why don't you just pretend that there is no such thing? I begged him. That night, I knelt in front of him and begged him to pretend that he didn't know about it. But he...he is like that Xie Xingcun, insisting on holding me tight! I have no choice! Killing him is the only choice I can make!"

Gu Li shook his head: "You can still choose to turn around. Nie Guangyu, you were wrong from the beginning."

However, Nie Guangyu will not admit that he was wrong, and can only leave him to the law to judge.Gu Li left exhausted and disappointed.

The petition that Nie Guangyu got was involved in the large and small cases of the past ten years. The three judicial departments have not stopped since New Year's Eve. They are either investigating the case or are on the way to investigate the case.

In addition, Prime Minister Mu fell, and his work stopped.He originally served as Minister of the Ministry of Officials concurrently, so Gu Li had to transfer Qu Junqing, Qing Qing of Dali Temple, to the Ministry of Officials, temporarily serving as Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

After the case was cleared up, Prime Minister Mu was finally able to rest in peace.Prime Minister Mu's two sons quickly rushed to the capital to attend to his funeral.On the day of Prime Minister Mu's funeral, Gu Li personally visited the door and burned three sticks of incense for him.

For the sake of Da Chu, for him, Prime Minister Mu deserves to devote himself to death.Gu Li posthumously named him Prince Taifu and gave him the honor he deserved.

It took two months for the San Judiciary to finally investigate the facts of the case involved in the nomination letter, and there was still a little bit of finishing work left.The number of people involved in the nomination case was not lost to Wang Zheng's case.Nie Guangyu asked to be executed later, and other criminals were sentenced according to the seriousness of the case.

The nomination case was finally dug out, and the entangled forces in the imperial court were finally almost uprooted.Gu Li did not dare to take it lightly, and still asked people to print the nominations on the mansion newspaper, and sent them to various places for study and strengthening ideological education. However, he also knew that once he had power, he wanted officials to rely on ideology and morality to eradicate them. Corruption is impossible, and this matter still depends on the supervision of the masses and the supervision of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

This case is about to be concluded. Gu Li decreed that Jiang Yanshu be promoted to prime minister, and started to promote the work of becoming an official at an age. Last winter, Prime Minister Mu released some rumors. Therefore, it is not too surprising that everyone heard that he will retire at the age of 65 this year. up.Although there were some people who objected to it, and there was a censor who impeached him, but Gu Li treated him equally and did not make any special arrangements. First, he took the knife from the people around him and made Li Tang retire when he was old.

He also didn't expect Li Tang to be 65 years old, and it was Li Tang who said it himself that he would push to become an official at that age.

Li Tang accepted this matter well, and said cheerfully: "The monarchs of the seventeen dynasties of Chu appointed 81 eunuchs and eunuchs, and they are the only ministers who can leave safely at the age of 65."

Although Gu Li said he hated him, but if he started the policy at the very moment of implementing the policy, how could the policy be implemented?He could only reward Li Tang with some extra things, let the guards escort him back to his hometown, and promoted Yu Guangle to be the eunuch in charge of ceremonies.

With Gu Li taking the lead, the officials of the DPRK and China naturally had nothing to say, and this policy was promoted from the central government to the local government.

Another thing is to start preparing for this year's tax collection.

The three-year tax holiday has passed, and the collection of agricultural tax will begin this year.In the past, people used grain to pay taxes, but later changed it to silver. Now that banknotes have been issued, there is no need to use silver, and the banknotes are handed over uniformly. "Consumption" refers to all kinds of deduction and exploitation.

Nie Guangyu was defeated, and the water conservancy construction had to continue. He had already brought out a group of people. Gu Li also appointed a doctor from the Ministry of Water, Xiao Gui Cao Sui, to continue to follow Nie Guangyu's water conservancy work ideas.

Naturally, the governance of the Yellow River will continue in the same way.Xia Xingcheng was extremely sad when he heard that Prime Minister Mu was murdered. It was even more unacceptable to hear that it was Nie Guangyu who did it. He never expected that Nie Guangyu was so mad.

He murmured to Gu Li: "I thought I would go first, but Prime Minister Mu actually took one step ahead of me!"

Seeing his skinny and withered appearance, Gu Li was really embarrassed to let him manage the Yellow River again.Just like Nie Guangyu, Xia Xingcheng also brought a few available people, and Gu Li handed over the matter to them and asked Xia Xingcheng to go to the temple to spend his old age peacefully.

However, maybe it was because he had been busy for too long, once he was free, his body would collapse quickly. Just after the summer solstice, he heard about Xia Xingcheng's passing away in the temple.

Gu Li sent away the two elderly people in a year, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit sad. He wrote a memorial service for Xia Xingcheng, and erected a monument beside the Yellow River to clearly write down Xia Xingcheng's achievements in governing the Yellow River.

This year's drought was severe in the past year. Fortunately, the common people had the experience of last year. This year they planted a lot of sweet potatoes. Gu Li also asked Huangzhuang to collect the grain and hand it over to the household department for disaster relief.As for the tax collection, due to the severe drought, [-]% was reduced or exempted, and the remaining [-]% was because he wanted to calculate whether there was any discrepancy between the area of ​​private cultivated land and that registered in the fish scale book.

The summer and autumn of this year finally passed without any danger. Seeing that it was time for Nie Guangyu to be executed, something happened in the capital.

Nie Guangyu handed over a blood book in the prison, expressing his grievances.What was said was not for himself, but for another person.

His wife - He Shuanglan.

After reading the blood book, Gu Li found out that after Nie Guangyu fell from the horse, his wife and son had no whereabouts, and the family property was taken by the elders of the clan. room.

He Shuanglan originally had a younger brother, Ren Zhixian, but after Nie Guangyu fell from the horse, how could his brother-in-law He Hongguang be preserved? .

However, the man she remarried to was addicted to alcohol, and would beat and scold her when he was drunk.He Shuanglan couldn't bear this kind of torture. After being beaten once, she stabbed the man to death with scissors while the man was tired and asleep.

He Shuanglan was arrested and imprisoned. When Nie Guangyu heard about it in prison, he was distraught and burned with grief. He bit his finger and wrote a blood book, hoping to save He Shuanglan's life.

Looking at the dirty blood book, Gu Li was shocked.He himself was raised by a single mother, and he knows the hardships of women. Even in modern times, a woman has many difficulties in the workplace and society, let alone women in ancient times, especially women in Dachu.

In Da Chu and Da Ming, women have to bind their feet.In addition, the defense between men and women has reached an almost abnormal level, and the domination and oppression of women by the patriarchal society has also reached the extreme.

Can't go on like this.

He wanted to change this situation, starting with He Shuanglan's case.

The author has something to say: Alas, since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the status of women has plummeted, and they have to bind their feet. Damn, it is simply a heinous torture!I have seen a photo from the period of the Republic of China. During the war, a woman with her feet bound was deformed and could not run, but could only crawl on the ground.It was really shocking.

In addition, there are very few good deaths about the eunuchs who are the supervisors of ceremonies. This information comes from Cai Shishan's "Eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty".The descendants of the old Zhu's family are very ungrateful.
