The most arrogant in history

Chapter 447: Redress grievances when there are grievances, and seek revenge when there are griev

Sure enough, the situation was exactly as Ye Kun had guessed!

This is a conspiracy!

Collapse style!

"Who is that Mohist disciple?"

"What's your name, Yang Zhao?"

"Remember his name and arrest him tomorrow. And don't let any of those corrupt officials go."

Ye Kun felt very tired and waved his hand, saying, "You arrange for the guards at the city gate and go to bed early. Tomorrow morning, Hou Qi and others will arrive..."

Tan Bamao was loyal and said with a smile, "Godfather, I'd better not sleep. I'll be on duty here to prevent those corrupt officials from getting desperate and assassinating you in the middle of the night."

There were not many people brought this time, and Tan Bamao was a little worried.

Ye Kun laughed and said, "Looking at Ji Congliang's appearance, even if he had ten courages, he wouldn't dare to assassinate me."

"It's better to be careful."

"That's fine, come drink with me."

Ye Kun nodded, drank with Tan Bamao, and asked, "Bamao, if you were in my position, how would you handle today's incident?"

"Godfather, I told you not to be angry."

Tan Bamao laughed and said, "If I were the King of Han, what happened today would just be a few words of scolding to Ji Congliang and then forget it."

"never mind?"

"Yes, the entrance fee for each carriage is ten cents, which is not much."

Tan Bamao smiled again: "There is no official in this world who is not greedy for money. We used to be in Pingye County, and you know that, godfather. I think the current Ji Congliang is much better than the old Lord Liu. But godfather, please don't tell this to my godmother Yuejuan, otherwise I will be dead."

"Don't worry, I won't tell." Ye Kun thought of Yue Juan's parents and smiled bitterly:

"Ji Congliang may be better now than Magistrate Liu was back then. But in two years, he may be as bold and reckless as Magistrate Liu. So, I must punish him severely."

Tan Bamao shrugged, "But in this world, there is no official who is not corrupt. Godfather, you can't do everything. I used to be in Pingye County, working for Lord Hou Qihou, and I often got some benefits. Those sneaky activities, even gods can't find out."

Upon hearing this, Ye Kun became even more pessimistic.

It is difficult to eradicate corruption and lawlessness at the county level, let alone at the grassroots level of townships and villages?

In the court and in the outside world, people all said that Ma Zhao was an efficient and cruel official.

But even though Ma Zhao was capable and ruthless, he could not put an end to corruption and abuse of power. Wouldn't things get even more chaotic after Ma Zhao died?

Ye Kun rolled his eyes: "Give me a way, how can we control the situation of corruption and abuse of power to the greatest extent?"

"Godfather, you think about this problem for a day, but I have to think about it for a lifetime. If you ask me, isn't that like looking for fish in a tree?"

Tan Bamao chuckled and said, "This matter still needs to be resolved by godfather, Ma Zhao, and Miss Gongsun."

"So do you think Ma Zhao is greedy?"

"I think there are only a few people in the court who are not greedy."

Tan Bamao was also drunk. He counted with his fingers: "Godfather is not greedy, because you have everything. All the gold, silver and beauties in the country are yours. You can ask for money and beauties openly. There is no need to be greedy..."

"Bullshit!" Ye Kun glared.

In fact, what Tan Bamao said was correct.

The emperor of the feudal dynasty was the biggest corrupt official. Whatever he wanted was legitimate. All the beauties in the world belonged to him, and he could have whoever he wanted!

For those court ministers, it was a great honor to be able to give their fifteen-year-old daughter to the eighty-year-old emperor as the eight hundredth concubine!

The lives of all officials and civilians also belong to the emperor.

Whoever the emperor wanted to die had to die. Before dying, they had to kowtow and thank the emperor for his grace!

So everyone wants to be an emperor because it’s so cool.

Tan Bamao clasped his fists and begged for mercy, then said:

"Then I won't talk about godfather, but others... Ma Zhao and Miss Gongsun Erniang are definitely not greedy. Zhuge Feng and Guan Yafu eat their own salaries, and they are not greedy either.

Even if Qin Chou and Ye Qingyang were not greedy, the benefits they received were frighteningly huge.

As for Han Chun, Yu Guinong, Yan Ju and others, let’s not talk about them. These people love money, how can they be clean? "

Ye Kun nodded and asked, "Where is Sang Buyi?"

"I'm not sure about Sang Buyi, but I haven't heard that he has done anything out of line. He doesn't have many servants at home. The number of servants in a family can show whether a person is corrupt or not."

Ye Kun asked again: "Are you greedy?"

"Godfather, I don't have it." Tan Bamao shouted, and then laughed:

"I follow my godfather, so I don't have to be greedy. The rewards my godfather gives me and my own salary are more than enough to eat up. Sometimes, the civil and military officials will give me some gifts..."

The third-rank official in front of the prime minister's door.

Tan Bamao follows Ye Kun all day long, which is equivalent to the deputy king of Han.

All the civil and military officials, as well as the ministers of the nine ministries, dared not offend Tan Bamao. Even the emperor, Gongsun Zhang, would occasionally send people to give Tan Bamao some new things to build relationships...

Ye Kun rolled his eyes: "Then did you accept all the things others gave you?"

"We are all officials in the same court. It would be embarrassing if we didn't accept it." Tan Bamao laughed maliciously:

"The adults, when they couldn't finish their venison and bear paws, sent me some. When they saw that I was losing weight, they sent me some ginseng, deer antlers, and other things..."

Ye Kun was furious: "You son of a bitch, it turns out you are the biggest corrupt official. Tomorrow I will let Ma Zhao deal with you! Eating venison and bear paws every day is better than what I eat!"

Tan Bamao smiled awkwardly: "Godfather, this is all normal, don't be angry. If you want to punish me, I have no objection, even if you want to kill me. Anyway, I am your son and my life belongs to you."

"Get lost, I want to sleep!"

"I know godfather."

Tan Bamao stood up and said goodbye, then smiled and said, "Do you want to find two beauties for your godfather..."

"Fuck you!" Ye Kun was angry and picked up the wine glass and smashed it.

Tan Bamao ran away in a flash.

Eight o'clock the next morning.

Hou Qi arrived with his soldiers and a group of officials.

Ye Kun then got up and waved his hand:

"Thoroughly investigate the finances of Chi County and the lawsuits in the last two years. Tell me when you have found out everything. Seize all the officials, big and small, and count and seal up their property to see if it has any legal origin.

Notices were posted outside the four gates of the county town. Anyone who had been blackmailed, oppressed, or suffered injustice could come to the county government to file a complaint, and a special person would receive them and verify their case immediately.

Hou Qi took the order and did it immediately.

Ye Kun washed up and went to see Xiao Ruliu and Jiao Nu.

Jiao Nu whispered: "I originally wanted to come out to have some fun and relax, but who knew I would run into this..."

"Your uncle and aunt's business has nothing to do with you." Ye Kun comforted Jiao Nu and said with a smile: "If you are not tired, I will continue to accompany you for a walk."

Jiaonu shook her head and didn't want to go out.

Xiao Ruliu smiled and said, "I'm pregnant, so it's not convenient for me to move. I'll just stay with Sister Jiaonu in the inn."

"That's fine, I'll go take a look."

Ye Kun changed into a set of casual clothes and took Tan Bamao and several plainclothes soldiers to watch the excitement outside the city gate.

A notice has been posted outside the city gate.

Two soldiers beat the gong and shouted:

"Ji Congliang, the magistrate of Zhi County, is corrupt and abuses his power to plunder the people. Ye Kun, the King of Han, has come personally to investigate and prosecute the corrupt official Ji Congliang. Everyone should seek justice for their grievances and seek revenge for their grievances. Anyone who can provide clues about Ji Congliang's corruption and abuse of power will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver!"
