Chapter 2574: Seizing people’s land?

silence.

Kou Zhun did not immediately agree to this matter, even though Lu Yijian and Zhang Dexiang were both his juniors whom he was very optimistic about.

Although one of them is a rising star from the north in his faction, the other is a rising star from the south.

But Kou Zhun is still weighing it.

He knew about Liu Maoqin's trip to Hangzhou to investigate the case.

Moreover, he felt that it was not a big deal to send a chamberlain, after all, the main force in the investigation this time was Ding Wei.

Liu Maoqin went to Hangzhou just to supervise.

Isn’t it true that there are no similar cases in Guochao?

It has long been customary to dispatch important courtiers and chamberlains to jointly investigate any major and important cases.

Is it necessary to make a fuss out of a molehill?

While Kou Zhun was pondering, Lu Yijian and Zhang Dexiang looked at each other in a tacit understanding and quickly exchanged looks.

"Master Prime Minister, you must be on guard against subtle changes!"

Immediately afterwards, Lu Yijian took over the conversation naturally.

a long time.

Kou Zhun nodded slightly: "I know, and if the time is right, I will report this to Your Majesty."

After thinking about it again and again, Kou Zhun felt that he should take up the matter.

After all, we can't chill people's hearts.

If according to his wishes, this matter is not worth mentioning at all, or in other words, if it were Kou Zhun in the past, he would probably reject the proposal on the spot.

But now Kou Zhun is a bit more tactful than before.

…

…

…

Funing Hall.

"Guan family, just now, Lu Shenzheng and Zhang Gongshi went to the residence of Prime Minister Kou together."

After learning what happened in the Kou Mansion, Lei Yungong immediately chose to report it.

"Um."

"I understand."

Li Jie raised his head and glanced at Lei Yungong, then quickly lowered his head and continued to read the papers submitted from various places.

Especially the zhazi presented by the new scholar.

Today, Li Jie has been in power for more than two years, but what he has seen is only a corner of the Song Dynasty.

Although he consulted a large amount of information, the records in historical books can only be used as a reference and cannot be relied upon.

If you want to truly understand the Song Dynasty, you have to explore slowly.

In fact, if the time is right, Li Jie is also prepared to follow the example of the First Emperor and have a grand parade.

But in this position, he knew very well that even if he toured places in person, it would be difficult to see those dark corners.

What he saw and heard were all carefully disguised things.

It's not cold at high places, it's just like this.

certainly.

If you conduct a private visit via incognito, you may be able to get a glimpse of the truth.

However, a private visit via incognito is not that simple. Given the current situation, it is definitely inappropriate.

Perhaps, after ten or twenty years, when everything is on the right track and his own prestige reaches its peak, and all the people in the world bow to him, he will have time to play private interviews on incognito servers.

"Huh?"

After flipping through the pages, Li Jie saw Zheng Jian's performance again.

What Zheng Jian reported this time was not the matter of Shibosi Yamen, but the matter of Fuyang Xie family's usurpation of people's land.

Fuyang Xie family naturally refers to the family of Yushi Xie Tao.

Seeing this, Li Jie couldn't help but think of an incident recorded in Taizong's Records.

During the Chunhua period, Xie Taoquan knew Huayang County. At that time, after experiencing the baptism of war, most of the people in Huayang County were displaced and their fields and houses were destroyed.

The local powerful took the opportunity to annex a large amount of land. Seeing this, Xie Tao spoke up.

'It is not the intention of the imperial court to seize the people's worldly property and use it to enrich the rich, and then summon the general to complain about it!'

When he saw this record, Li Jie had a good impression of Xie Tao. However, later Xie Tao first used the Taiping Huimin Bureau to draw questions about tea.

Later, Xie Tao took the opportunity to shoot Liu Jun again.

Looking at this person's behavior, when Ding Wei was in power, he welcomed Ding Wei. When Wang Qinruo returned to the capital, he repeatedly jumped between Ding Wei and Wang Qinruo.

I have to say that Li Jie was very disappointed.

After all, Xie Tao in the history books was a straight minister who was not afraid of power.

But now, we have to put double quotation marks around the word ‘power’.

Schrödinger's power!

There are many examples of young men who slay dragons and eventually become evil dragons.

However, Li Jie did not completely believe Zheng Jian's report. Who knows whether what Zheng Jian reported was the truth? Did it have a deeper meaning?

As far as he knew, after the tribute ceremony in the second year of Tiansheng, the relationship between Zheng Jian and Ye Qingchen was very good.

Who is Ye Qingchen?

Ding Wei’s son-in-law!

As for Xie Tao, he first attached himself to Ding Wei, and later became ambiguous with Wang Qinruo.

Can Ding Wei bear it when he sees such useless people?

Maybe there were various off-site factors involved in Jinzou Xie's invasion of people's fields.

Therefore, this matter must be investigated!

Check carefully, check carefully!

We must not only give justice to Zheng Jian, but also explore Xie Tao's true background.

Thinking of this, Li Jie immediately took out Zheng Jian's papers, put them aside, and then lightly tapped the table with his fingers.

Hey!

Hey!

"Take it and have a look."

"My lord, you are trespassing!"

Lei Yungong bowed slightly, then moved step by step to the desk, and carefully picked up the zhazi.

From the beginning to the end, Lei Yungong kept his head half lowered.

After reading the contents of the note at a glance, Lei Yungong already knew it well. He closed the note and quietly waited for the official's instructions.

"I allow you one month to thoroughly investigate yourself."

"And this matter must not be made public!"

Hearing this, Lei Yungong felt a pain in his heart. If there were no restrictions, he even dared to tell the officials that half a month would be enough.

But with the additional premise of keeping it quiet, one month is indeed a bit tight.

However, no matter how difficult it is, we still have to do it.

"I obey the decree!"

"Go and do it."

Then, Li Jie waved his hand, indicating that Lei Yungong could leave.

"My lord, please leave!"

The night is getting darker.

"The official family, it's the end of Haishi."
