Chapter 867 Judgment on Grain Tunnel Case
I heard that the people who were distributed with food were extremely grateful to the heaven and the imperial court, and they knelt down on the spot to thank them when they received the food.

As for the case of Zhao Fucheng and the others hoarding grain, because the imperial envoy sent by Emperor Xuanping personally investigated and dealt with it, the case came to light within a few days and the verdict came to light.

It is a fact that Zhao Fucheng and others hoarded food privately, and a lot of the money they used was unknown. It was Zhao Fucheng who embezzled public funds.

However, Zhao Fucheng and others argued that they were not hoarding food to make money, but to hoard food so that the people would not know that the natural disaster would aggravate the food and waste it at will. The food they hoarded would be returned to the people when the natural disaster aggravated. .

So they are not earning huge profits by hoarding food, but they are thinking about the people.

No one would believe this kind of nonsense, and because Emperor Xuanping had issued an order not to hoard food in private, they couldn't get rid of it even if they said a flower.

Therefore, as the mastermind of this case, Zhao Fucheng presided over the hoarding of food. The most important thing is that he was also found to have committed serious corruption and bribery in Ding'an Mansion as Fucheng for more than ten years. He was sentenced to death .

Then the merchants who hoarded grain with him were also sentenced to exile, imprisonment and fines according to the severity of the plot.

Among these people, what is worth mentioning is the verdict against Liu Baokai and the others.

I don’t know how Liu Baokai and the others did it. In the end, Liu Zhiming confessed all the crimes. Liu Zhiming was sentenced to exile for thousands of miles. No imperial examinations!

Of course, these are only official punishments. In fact, after Liu Baokai and his family were released by the government, countless people who watched them threw all kinds of bad things.

And this is not the end, Liu Baokai and his family, and even the whole old Liu family will be despised by everyone in the days to come, which is the more painful.

As for Wang Xuemei who advised them, for some reason it wasn't revealed that it was her foretelling of the future that they hoarded food, but nothing happened.

Shen Jianwan is generally quite satisfied with this result. Those who want to take advantage of natural disasters to make a fortune have finally received their due punishment in this life. Of course, it would be better if the members of the Liu family and Wang Xuemei did not escape. .

However, Liu Zhiming was sentenced to exile for thousands of miles, and the members of the old Liu family were therefore unable to take part in the imperial examination until Liu Baokai's son could no longer take the imperial examination.

As for Wang Xuemei's lame leg, bad appearance due to burns, poor financial situation and betrayal, Shen Jianwan allowed her to dance for another two years. After all, without her, the fourth prince Ping Wang and others might not Changed the strategy of the world.

In order to prevent too many variables, Shen Jianwan decided to let the other party struggle for two more years, and then she would recover all the debts from her past and present lives with interest.

Speaking of which, in the previous life, Zhao Fucheng and Liu Baokai’s storage of food was not exposed, and next year they really made a fortune in disasters, exacerbating the disaster in Ding’an Mansion, and starving Ding’an Mansion, which was originally not fatally affected by the drought. A lot of people died, and then Zhao Fucheng managed the relationship because he made a lot of money, and finally succeeded Li Zhifu as the next prefect of Ding'an Prefecture after being the Fucheng for 15 years.

And in this life, Shen Jianwan believes that this is in vain. As far as she knows, Dong Yuwen is likely to succeed Li because of his meritorious service in reporting her rice field fish farming and promoting composting in their Pingyang County. The prefect will become the next prefect of Ding'an Prefecture.

However, in his previous life, Dong Yuwen had resigned early because of the tragic death of his beloved wife Zheng Dan, so there is no reason that he will take over as the magistrate of Ding'an Prefecture after his meritorious service.

In addition, as for Wang Xuemei and Lao Liu's family, they also benefited a lot from the food storage this time, and they will no longer exist in this life.

It can be said that everything is very different from the previous life.

At the same time that the case of Zhao Fucheng and others was judged, Emperor Xuanping, who was far away in the capital, also received a memorial from Qingfeng County King to excavate Qianshi Mountain to build a tributary of Liangjiang River.

Seeing Shen Jianwan's detailed and perfect water control plan, Emperor Xuanping was immediately amazed. If Zheng Jimin hadn't secretly gone out to work for him, he couldn't help but immediately discuss the water control plan with the other party.

Emperor Buxuanping was so excited that he didn't sleep all night, he asked his close ministers to copy several copies of the water control plan written by Shen Jianwan, and prepared to bring it to the court hall to discuss with the ministers the next day.

This morning, the ministers found that Emperor Xuanping, who was frowning because of the drought and the invasion of the Huns at the border these days, looked very excited.

Sure enough, before they opened their mouths to start the business, Emperor Xuanping waved his hand and said that today's affairs are put aside for the time being. He has more important matters to discuss with everyone, and then asked Fu Gonggong and others to write the copied Shen Jianwan. The water control plan for the Qianshishan section of the Liangjiang River was circulated to the courtiers.

When the ministers saw that Emperor Xuanping let them see things so excitedly, they couldn't help being extremely curious, and then when they saw the water control plan written by Shen Jianwan, the hall suddenly became as quiet as a chicken!
Emperor Xuan Ping was satisfied to see that the ministers saw Shen Jianwan's plan and became more and more excited as he read it, each and everyone showed excitement, and he couldn't help but stroked his beard proudly.

Just when he saw that everyone was about to ask a question, Song Shu, the minister of Dali Temple who had always been honest and honest in his seventies, suddenly sat down on the ground, and then lost his composure on the spot and wept bitterly.

"Song...Song Aiqing, are you okay?" Emperor Xuan Ping rarely stuttered and asked this old minister who was still working for him and took charge of Dali Temple. He was really afraid that something would happen to the old man who was so excited. .

"My... Your Majesty's forgiveness for your disgrace." Song Shu remembered that he was still in court when he heard the words.

Emperor Xuanping couldn't help but secretly twitched the corners of his mouth when he saw it, but he also hurriedly said: "It's okay, what does Song Aiqing think of Jinxiu Township Lord's water control plan?"

Speaking of Song Shu, who had just calmed down, he became excited again, "Your Majesty, the water control plan proposed by Lord Jinxiu Township is simply a work of magic.

In his sixty-five years of life, I have never seen such a miracle of making water flow to high places and cracking mountains and rocks.

Your Majesty, my hometown is Taohua County in Qiu'an Prefecture, but since I became an official, I have never made half a contribution to this hometown. I am really ashamed.

If Lord Jinxiu Township's actions can change the drought that has always existed in my hometown and irrigate tens of millions of fertile fields in my hometown, I am willing to erect a monument of longevity for Lord Jinxiu Township, and please Your Majesty must carry out this role of Lord Jinxiu Township water control plan. "As he spoke, he knelt down with his head touching the ground.
