Chapter 1189 Take People
Weizhou is a top-notch fertile place in the world, with extremely prosperous business. Logically speaking, business, windows, and other types of doors must be opened to be breathable.
Nowadays, the shops on the street are all nailed with wooden boards and covered up tightly. How could this mean to do business?
Could it be the closing of the door? Or the measures taken to disturb the people as the emperor?
Thinking of this, Li Jia immediately frowned.
Although he is used to big scenes, he does so randomly without disturbing the public, wouldn’t he ruin his reputation?
"Let Wu Qing come--"
The emperor narrowed his eyes and said to the eunuch who drove the horse outside the car.
Then, during a trot, Commander Wu, who was riding a horse and watching the flowers, had no choice but to get off his horse and ran quickly.
"Your Majesty!" Wu Qing responded panting.
"There is nothing else to ask you to come. I just go and investigate why these doors and windows were sealed with wooden boards. What happened in Weizhou?"
The emperor sat in the car, enjoying Xiao Yanyan's bold service, and said lightly, "Not to mention, people usually like to talk back."
"Yes!" Wu Qing felt that the emperor's words were a little indifferent. He thought that it might be because he had been too much trouble with the Khitan women, so he cursed the vixen in his heart, thinking of finding some useful medicine for the emperor.
After all, the Shooting Department is the emperor's personal guard, and it is necessary to urgently be a necessity for the emperor.
He made up his mind, but Wu Qing did not relax his investigation into Weizhou either.
At night, Li Jia rested in the Duke of Wei's Mansion. He was also Fu Yanqing's son-in-law. It was legitimate for his son-in-law to live in the house of Weng.
However, Fu Yanqing, the old pervert, has about forty or fifty people, and the youngest is only sixteen, which is more comfortable than the emperor's life.
After criticizing silently for a while in his heart, Li Jia settled down safely.
At this time, Wu Qing also came with the news.
Over the years, the Sound of the Sound of the Sound of the Sound of the Sound of the Sound of the Frontier has been focused on all parts of the border, but it still has a layout for the mainland. Some people are stationed in prosperous places like Weizhou.
So, after a little inquiry, he will understand it all.
"Empty Prison?" Li Jia muttered. Looking at these words, he really found it difficult to understand the bureaucrats' thinking.
Do you think the emperor came to Weizhou thousands of miles to inspect the people's conditions and officials?
Damn, there are so many prefectures and counties along the way, if he really does that, he will not have to get off. The carriage is more difficult than the trains and cars of later generations. He feels a little lacking in energy with a woman, so he has no mind to consider these things.
Where can the emperor, who is heavily protected, really contact the people and understand the situation of the local governments? Don’t you have to be told by others and write to a letter to know?
"Absurd!!!" Li Jia couldn't help but smile angrily.
Fan Yanping was indeed a stupid official, or a mediocre official. In order to make the political achievements of the empty prison, he ignored the situation of each county, which led to the people's injustice and bandits prevailing.
Shops have to nail doors and windows to prevent thieves.
"Wait!" Li Jia looked at the news carefully and couldn't help asking: "The matter of nailing doors and windows was done in the past two days, and only today is during the day?"
Rubbing the white paper in his hand, Li Jia couldn't help but walk away, and smiled and said, "This is someone who did this on purpose, just to attract my attention!"
Whether it is the Shooting Department or the Imperial City Department, the main range of activities is still near the capital, Kyoto is stable and the world is stable.
There are more than 400 states in the world and more than 1,55 counties, so they cannot be arranged at all, so they can only choose important places to station.
"Your Majesty means, this is Weizhou. Some people are dissatisfied with Governor Fan?"
Wu Qing squinted his eyes and said softly.
"The strategy of empty prison is that hundreds of bandits are let go, many people who commit minor crimes are killed, thousands of families are full of complaints. Not only the people, but also many people are dissatisfied in the officialdom!"
The emperor shook his head, his eyebrows and eyes gradually became sharp: "No matter what conspiracy or trick, anyway, a foolish official like Fan Yanping must not be a fool."
"If I caught the attention of the emperor, I naturally cannot give up like this. I have to show off my power."
The next day, the emperor held a banquet. With the light of the Duke of Wei's Mansion, he invited celebrities from all over the country, as well as county and state officials to come, saying that he wanted to listen to the people's sentiments and adopt the customs of the people.
This made the entire Duke of Wei's mansion lively like the New Year, with hundreds of carriages and horses parked, and various colors of brocade clothes. No one dared to be careless in such a decent manner.
Even officials who were concerned about fame were dressed in a fresh manner and participated in the banquet happily.
It should be noted that only officials from the fifth rank or above, officials from the capital, and officials from the lower prefectures and counties have only been a few times in their lifetime. Now that they can get such an opportunity, they are overjoyed.
Fan Yanping also looked happy. Although he was not greedy for money, he still had a lot of savings at home. Moreover, with his status as the governor of his state, he did nothing and had no worries about food and drink.
Wearing a new robe and yellow, Fan Yanping was greeted by many powerful officials along the way. He felt quite contented: "When the emperor saw such a scene in Weizhou, I believe that it must be in Junxin. I am afraid it will be inevitable that he will go to work in the mansion."
However, he turned his head and shook his head again: "It's better to go to the capital city. Every now and then, it's easier to promote the Beijing official."
"Prince, you sit in the front row, sit here!" On the seats, Fan Yanping sat in the front row of the neighboring emperor. He was overjoyed and responded quickly.
During the Tang Dynasty, states were often compared to counties, so the state governor was often called prefect.
Other officials cast envious eyes.
You know, in that row, there were high-ranking officials and nobles such as Fu Zhaoshou, the youngest son of Duke of Wei, and the honors in it were self-evident.
During this waiting, Fan Yanqing was particularly satisfied and was in a very happy mood.
Soon, the emperor came.
Because he was having fun with the people, he did not wear a dragon robe and just wore an ordinary white robe, but in the eyes of everyone, he was still dazzling and brilliant.
"Today in Weizhou, it is a happy thing to celebrate the prosperous times with you. The world is unified and congratulate the Tang Dynasty-"
The emperor raised his cup and said loudly.
"Congratulations to the Tang Dynasty, to Your Majesty--" Everyone raised their glasses, their faces full of joy.
"But, unfortunately, in such a prosperous age, there are always a few rat shit that ruins the difficult prosperous age!"
Then, the emperor shook his head softly, with anger on his face: "Come on, take it down for me-"
The emperor waved his hand, and suddenly a team of soldiers came in directly. In front of everyone, he took down all dozens of people led by the governor of Weizhou Fan Yanping, shocking everyone.
Immediately, Li Jia asked someone to promulgate their crimes and then said coldly: "Everyone is imprisoned and the whole family is exiled to Champaign. This is the price of wanton and reckless acts!"
