The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 751 The Murderer Appears
"Tell me, how much did you charge?!"

Liu Wangcheng is already broken at this moment, and struggling is meaningless, "Tang Lian from the Tang Sect will send snowflakes and silver hundred and thirty taels to the humble staff every year."

After speaking, Liu Wangcheng lowered his head.

"Your annual salary is not as much as that!"

This amount, before the "Dazhou Criminal Law Amendment (130)" was promulgated, was [-] taels of silver, which was enough to sentence Liu Wangcheng to death.

Judging from this posture, Liu Wangcheng has held it for at least ten years.

"The lowly position is only a low-level official of the eighth rank. Even with the great grace of the emperor, the imperial court has raised the salary several times, and the annual salary of the lower official is only 98 taels."

This salary is not low for ordinary people, and the annual expenditure of a family of three with adequate food and clothing is generally less than 30 taels.

Liu Wangcheng is not an ordinary person. Although he is not an official of the eighth rank and rank of only a hundred taels, he is a real court official. Compared with later generations, he is the top leader of the Municipal Finance Bureau, Civil Affairs Bureau, and Construction Bureau.

For ordinary ordinary people, such a person is close to the upper limit in interpersonal relationships.

However, for such a person, after the salary has doubled, the annual salary is less than a hundred taels.Since ancient times, the official salary system has been thin, and there has never been anyone like this.

Liu Wangcheng, who was waiting for Yang Qingyuan's fate, did not wait for Yang Qingyuan's disposal. Just when he raised his head to see Yang Qingyuan's expression, Yang Qingyuan spoke.

"I will not deal with the matter of you accepting bribes today. Hu Yunji, the deputy envoy of the Yizhou Metropolitan Police Department, is responsible for this matter. What the Marquis is asking today is only about the private casting of copper coins."

Hearing what Yang Qingyuan said, Liu Wangcheng's body stopped shaking.

It is impossible for the imperial court to kill all corrupt officials in Yuzhou County. In order to maintain the normal operation of Yuzhou County, it must catch the big and let go of the small.

The chief of greed and evil will never be tolerated!
Anyone who collects money, abuses power, and bends the law for personal gain will be taken down!
However, there is a kind of person that the Metropolitan Procuratorate has not dealt with so resolutely, and the severity has not been determined-officials who have accepted bribes, but have not used their powers to commit crimes that violate the law.

In ordinary times, it is to only collect money and do nothing.

The "Da Zhou Criminal Law Amendment (Ten)" stated the crime of accepting bribes. The crime of accepting bribes refers to the fact that court officials take advantage of their powers to extort other people's property, or illegally accept other people's property to seek benefits for others.

So if you only accept money and do nothing, is it not considered bribery? !

There are not a few people who are proficient in the law in the DPRK and China discussing this, including the Dali Temple Criminal Law Academy, which also has quite a lot of discussion about it.

In the end, it was the editor-in-chief of the Criminal Law Amendment, Mr. Yang explained that if the officials of the imperial court know that others have entrusted matters and accept their property, it is regarded as a promise to "seek benefits for others", whether they have actually sought benefits or obtained benefits for others, Does not affect the determination of bribery.

Of course, even though it is so determined, in practice, this category is often given lightly.

Crime is not only a violation of the legal interests of the country.

But judging from the actual and short-term harmful results, officials who only take money and do nothing will only affect their own moral character and conduct, and destroy the officialdom.

The impact on the court and the people is not so serious.

"As a householder, you must be clear about the private casting of copper coins. From today onwards, you will enter the six gates of Yuzhou to investigate the private casting of copper coins alone!" Although Liu Wangcheng was guilty of the crime, Yang Qingyuan Or squeeze his surplus value.

"My lord, what should I do with these privately minted copper coins?!" But Liu Wangcheng, who was being exploited, didn't realize it at all, he just felt that he had a way out!

"Recycle according to the law, three for one!"

Yang Qingyuan came here this time to explore the Yuzhou County Government's attitude towards the private minting of copper coins. It seems that these officials of the Yuzhou County Government are also inseparable from the Tang Sect's private minting of copper coins.

"Pack up your things and follow me to the sixth gate of Yuzhou. I will send someone to pick up your family."

Naturally, Yang Qingyuan had to control this identity card in his hands first. With him, it would be much easier to investigate the people in the Yuzhou county government office!
"Liu has nothing to clean up, you can leave now!"

Liu Hucao knew that he was very dangerous now. If Zhang Taishou and Chen Tongsan knew that he had confessed, they would definitely try their best to kill him. At this time, he still had to hug Yang Qingyuan's thick leg tightly.

Don't talk about getting promoted and getting rich, or even saying that nothing happened, but life must be saved.

Yang Qingyuan also knew what Liu Wangcheng was thinking at this time, so he got up and said, "Then let's go!"

Liu Wangcheng hesitated when he heard the words, "Aren't you going to judge with Zhang Taishou and Chen Tong?!"

"What are their identities?! There are so many things?"

As a superior officer, Yang Qingyuan notified them, but he was friendly in reality, even if he didn't know anything about them, it was still part of etiquette.

After speaking, Yang Qingyuan took Liu Wangcheng and left the county office.

……

"Liu Wangcheng was taken away by Yang Qingyuan!?"

Hearing that the yamen servant came to report the news, Zhang Taishou was shocked and angry.

Liu Wangcheng is a householder in the county yamen, Cao Canjun, and he knows the tax accounts like the palm of his hand.Originally, according to Zhang Taishou and Chen Tongpan's ideas, if the deposed envoy really came to investigate, then the householder Cao Shenjun suddenly fell ill and died suddenly.

But now Yang Qingyuan took Liu Wangcheng away without saying a word.If he wanted to take back Liu Wang from Yang Qingyuan, the only way left was to use force.

But Zhang Taishou and Chen Tong did not dare!
Everyone is not a person with no information. There are also some people in Shudu Mansion who want to fight Yang Qingyuan, and they are all families that have been rooted in Yizhou for more than a hundred years.

The results of it? !Now they are all having reunion dinner in prison!
How to deal with it is still waiting for Hu Yunji's disposal!

Use force, come hard, this is definitely not acceptable.

"Master Taishou, we must hurry! Now rush to Liu Wangcheng's house, as long as he controls his family, we still have a chance to come back!"

Zhang Taishou also turned his eyes cold when he heard the words, "Okay! I will immediately transfer my confidants and take Liu Hucao's family members to live in the mansion. These days, Yuzhou County is not peaceful. I, the parent officer of Yuzhou, also need to take care of my subordinates." family."

"My lord, you must be quick! If we can think of it, the surname Yang must also be able to think of it. If this also makes him take the lead, then we will really be passive!"

……
-
Zhang Taishou and Chen Tongpan could have imagined it, and Yang Qingyuan could also have expected it, after so many years of working in politics and law, is there still a way to do this? !

As soon as Yang Qingyuan came out of the county office, he asked a master of Dali Temple in Yuanhua Realm to bring Liu Wangcheng's token with him, and brought his family to the branch of Liufanmen in Yuzhou City, so that Liu Wangcheng would have no worries.

After finishing these, Yang Qingyuan's eyes returned to Tangmen.

His purpose of coming to Yizhou was to track down people from the Tang Sect, but after arriving in Yuzhou City, the Tang Sect seemed to be shrouded in one mystery after another, which kept interfering with Yang Qingyuan's investigation of what he wanted to investigate.

Whether it was the bizarre death of three members of the Tang Sect, or the sudden discovery that the Tang Sect had opened a copper mine and minted copper coins privately, it was impossible for Yang Qingyuan to sit idly by.

As a result, the forces that should have gone all out to track down the Blood River Sect were constantly being dispersed, making it difficult to fully concentrate.

Yang Qingyuan didn't know whether all this was a coincidence or someone deliberately arranged it.

If it was a coincidence, then all this would be too coincidental, unbelievably coincidental.

But if it was arranged by someone, so far Yang Qingyuan has not found any obvious traces, only his intuition is telling him that what happened is not simple.

Li Changyuan, who had finished investigating the Tang Sect, came back with a look of despair on his face.

The current Lao Li can be sure that this person surnamed Yang thinks he is a disaster star, a big disaster star.

Ever since Yang Qingyuan arrived in Yuzhou, he hasn't had a day of leisure.

"Captain Li, how is the Tang Sect's investigation going?!"

Li Changyuan seemed a little weak, "Back to Lord Marquis, there is nothing to investigate. It is exactly the same as Tang Lian and Tang Chi's death before! There is blood all over the ground, and there are no obvious internal and external injuries on the body."

"Is it the same person?!"

Faced with Yang Qingyuan's question, Li Changyuan shook his head, "This subordinate can't tell, but on the surface, the cause of death is the same as that of Tang Chi and Tang Lian before, and it is very likely that he did it alone."

"What's superficial?!" Yang Qingyuan caught the key words in Li Changyuan's words, "Tell me more about it!"

Li Changyuan originally wanted to come back to rest for a while, to catch some fish, and Yang Qingyuan would support him when the sky fell, but he didn't expect that Yang Qingyuan had no intention of letting him go, and kept squeezing his surplus value, and he would definitely not pay overtime wages!
But there is no way, who said that this guy is the immediate boss of the immediate boss... the immediate boss!
Li Changyuan immediately poured himself a glass, moistened his throat, and said, "Then this subordinate will talk about his own humble opinion, throw bricks to attract jade, and ask your lord to correct him!"

He kept complaining in his heart, but he was well-mannered on his face.

Li Changyuan is too real!

"The subordinates think that there must be a reason for murder. The murderer is extremely careful and meticulous every time he makes a move. Obviously he is not a reckless murderer, but has his own plan. Then what is his purpose for killing?!"

"Tang Chi and Tang Lian are both radicals in the Tang Sect. At the same time, these two people are the greatest threat to Tang Wei. Once they die, it will be a certainty for Tang Wei to succeed the new Tang Sect head. Tang Chi, Tang Lian's camp and interests are the same, and the method of death is generally the same, so it can be concluded that it was the same person.

However, although the new deceased, Tang Ju, was also an elder of the Tang Sect, he was a staunch supporter of Tang Wei. If the murderer killed Tang Lian and Tang Wei for the sake of being the head of the sect, then the cause of Tang Ju's death would be the same as that of Tang Chi and Tang Wei. I can't match it. "

Li Changyuan analyzed very carefully, starting with the motive of the murder to analyze the differences between the previous two cases and the new case.

"In your opinion, there are two groups of people who killed Tang Ju, Tang Lian, and Tang Lian?!"

Yang Qingyuan's question stopped Li Changyuan immediately.

Since ancient times, it is easy to solve and difficult to propose. It is enough to enumerate the possibilities, which are sufficiently detailed and perfect, but it will be extremely difficult to choose one from many options.

This is the lack of "breaking", so there will be many difficulties in choosing.

For example, Yuan Benchu, the biggest prince in the late Han Dynasty, the fourth generation and third prince, was always scheming.

"Master Hou, there are not enough clues in the hands of the humble official, so I really dare not make a judgment."

Yang Qingyuan did not continue to embarrass Li Changyuan. This case is really unclear now. Li Changyuan can analyze this, which is already considered a qualified professional ability.

When the matter in Yuzhou is over, it's time to add more burdens to Li Changyuan. A man in his 30s, he looks lazy all day long.

"Acridine!" Li Changyuan sneezed suddenly, feeling a chill down his back.

He didn't know that someone had already started planning his leisurely life.

"Master Hou, what should we do now?!"

Li Changyuan felt that he had entered a dead end and didn't know how to go on.

Yang Qingyuan spread his hands, "I don't have any coups, but I have a stupid one."

"Ah!?" Yang Qingyuan's words made Li Changyuan's face full of question marks.

……
-
night after five days.

After nightfall in Tangjiabao, it fell into silence again.

The Tang Sect has strict rules and regulations. Ordinary disciples are not allowed to walk around in Tangjiabao at will after Haichu. They can only move within the area specified by themselves and can't make too much noise.

Except for the disciples who watch the night, only a few elders and hall masters with high status can walk freely in the gate.

And the bizarre deaths of Tang Chi, Tang Lian, and Tang Ju made the already quiet Tangjiabao even more peaceful.

The disciples who watched the night kept going around the important places in Tangjiabao.

Now Tangmen's defensive strength is more than twice as strong as before.

Not only ordinary disciples, but also those elders and masters are panicked. Everyone is afraid of death, but no one wants to die.

In the darkness, a figure quietly walked out of a courtyard, walked towards the courtyard of Tang Sect Master Tang Zhang, and then entered the room.

……

In the night, a thin bamboo sticks in through the open window, and then a mist of water seeps into the room along the thin bamboo, and spreads rapidly, colorless and odorless, turning the mist into gas, making people feel uncomfortable. Hard to notice.

Then a man in black with a thin bamboo tube stood outside the door, quietly listening to the movement of the people inside.

About a moment later, there was a sudden plop in the room, as if a sack had fallen on the ground.

The man in black immediately showed a satisfied smile, turned around and was about to leave, and the matter was done again!

"Hey! This poison is good! Is this the water of the Styx River?"

A voice sounded behind the man in black without warning, making the man in black's hair stand on end in fright.

How can it be? !Someone could sneak within ten feet of him silently, but he didn't notice anything unusual.

The man in black immediately shot a large number of hidden weapons behind him, and then shot quickly.

No matter who this person is!It must be out of his control!
The man in black obviously had a clear position on his own martial arts. Since the visitor could appear within ten feet behind him silently, then this kind of martial arts is not something he can match, and walking is the best policy.

Given that he knows all the information about the institutions in the Tangjiabao, even if the person who comes here is extremely skilled in martial arts, it will definitely be difficult for him to move an inch in the Tangjiabao.

Ideal is plump, reality is skinny.

As soon as the man in black rushed forward a foot away, a young man in blue had already appeared in front of him.

"Yang Qingyuan!!"
