Authority can make people crazy.
Benefits can also make people crazy.
When two are added together, they are not added together, but multiplied together.
In the Wang mansion in Andefang, Jinyang, there is a bleak cloud of sorrow.
Wang sat in his arms with his head in his arms, looking dazed, with bloodshot eyes.
There was some food on the table, but it was already cold now.
The footsteps came from the corridor, and a servant rushed to the hall and reported: "Report to the husband, the husband of the Chen family... the husband of the Chen family said he was sick..."
"I'm sick again..." Wang Huai sneered, and then couldn't help but get angry, "Get out! Get out!"
Wang Huai's emotions were out of control, which undoubtedly aggravated the fear in the servant's heart, but he couldn't do anything, so he could only retreat silently.
The air is filled with the confusion of uncertainty in life and death.
Authority and interests can also make people psychedelic.
Once you hold authority in your hands and bite your interests, you think you can really do everything.
The smuggling of Wang Huai and others is not very comprehensive and confidential, and even many people from other families know a little about it. After all, smuggling is not a one-time act. There are always traces when coming and going. No one said it before, which does not mean that no one knew it. It just doesn’t want to say it or dare not say it.
Originally, Wang Huai felt that Wang Ying didn't know anything, and she was young and was mostly full of energy and eager to achieve success and authority. Whenever there was a clue, she would bite it like crazy. In this way, the water in Taiyuan was completely disturbed, and physical witnesses and witnesses would conflict with each other. Which one is pointed to and which one is pointed to, and the other is pointed to, which one is the end, which is the end of Wang Ying, which is like dealing with a mess. If you want to use brute force to solve it quickly, it will often get worse and worse.
Even if Wang Ying really ignored everything and came to Wang Huai, Wang Huai and others were not worried at first. Because in addition to Wang Huai, he also prepared two methods of soft and hard, pleading and threatening. On the one hand, he dispatched some old, young, women and children to persuade Wang Ying to disturb his thoughts, and on the other hand, he could take the opportunity to put some things in, stuff them, and throw them into Wang Ying's hands...
But now, Wang Ying has been in the inn after the first meeting, which has made Wang Huai and others unable to use many of the means!
You can't rush into the inn and expose yourself?!
As time goes by, things not only have not improved, but gradually become a direction that Wang Huai cannot understand.
The pressure from the outside, coupled with Cui Jun's notice to let officials declare property, made the situation begin to tense, and Wang Huai's arrogant use of force not only failed to achieve the effect he had imagined, but instead further worsened the situation.
Then Cui Jun completely turned to Wang Ying, saying that he would not play anymore. Handing over the list also meant that both sides had completely cooperated. It was like draining the water in the turbid pool, making the fish in the pool gradually unable to hide it.
"Why? Why did it become like this?" Wang hugged his head and gritted his teeth. "How long has it been gone? How could this silly woman become so calm? She is so capable?"
Wang Huai couldn't figure it out, but no matter whether he could figure it out or not, his path was almost blocked, and it was at the end...
In fact, at the beginning, Wang Huai had some chance.
Because smuggling has been held in all dynasties and is also a serious crime. At least it is stipulated in the law, but there are some subtle differences in the actual implementation process.
For example, the same act of smuggling goods may be a sin in Feiqian, but in turn it is a merit in other areas. Or it is a crime in other places, and you will be rewarded when you arrive at Feiqian.
The plant seeds from the Western Regions can be said to be collected, purchased, or smuggled...
So, the main criterion for smuggling is not based on crime, but on the butt.
Wang Huai's smuggling behavior was undoubtedly stealing money from Fei Qian's money bag, but the way of stealing money was slightly different. For example, if you directly use high-quality armored horses to trade with Cao Cao, it would be a way to die, which is considered to be an open robbery level and a huge amount. For example, Wang Huai, who took some inferior iron weapons to find Hu people to exchange for horse furs, and then went to Shandong to resell it, it would be like stealing Fei Qian's corner, with a relatively small amount.
Commodity buying and selling is a price that both parties can accept at a transaction.
Political behavior is a "price" compromise that can be accepted by many parties.
Wang's smuggling behavior is almost transparent in front of Zhen Mi. She doesn't even need to investigate any evidence or find any physical evidence, because no matter what it is in the end, it will fall into one word, "money".
Cui Jun’s cooperation behavior means that from another perspective, “How did the money come from?”
No matter who it is, as long as you don’t explain it clearly in this regard, there will naturally be problems.
If there is a problem, it doesn’t matter whether there is really direct evidence of smuggling or whether it is really involved. If you can’t explain the ins and outs of money, no one can continue to hold the authority in your hand!
This made the officials who might have provided convenience, cover up, and confusing to Wang Huai and others begin to withdraw and dare not continue to get involved. These officials and Wang Huai and others are not brothers who have been missing for many years, but for money. When the money is hot, these officials immediately abandoned Wang Huai without saying a word.
In the Han Dynasty, it was undoubtedly very difficult to transfer money on a large scale.
Even in later generations, it is difficult to transfer a lot of physical money, whether it is cash, paper money, or antiques in real estate in a short period of time. Therefore, for some officials, they are unwilling to see a national unified big data network in finance in any case...
Zhen Mi and Wang Ying's strategy is like watching the water outlets inside and outside of the fish pond in Taiyuan at the same time. Even a fool knows who jumps out of the water first, which will attract everyone's attention and can only lurk under the water obediently. But when the water surface gradually drops, even if the bottom of the water is stirred up and lurks well, what's the effect?
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The truth is revealed, no, the fish are revealed.
In the camp outside the city, Cui Jun also had a separate tent on the periphery.
"Envoy, if this son of Wang does some fake accounts..." the civil servant beside Cui Jun bowed and said, "Then won't find out?"
"Fake accusation?" Cui Jun laughed twice, "Don't forget that there is a Zhen family in the inn! What's more...hehe..."
This time Wang Ying went to Taiyuan to investigate the smuggling incident, which can be said to be contrary to Cui Jun's imagination from the beginning.
If Wang Ying had just arrived in Taiyuan, he would just arrest relevant personnel without saying a word, retrieve various supplies, torture, and break into the house. Although these are ordinary methods, Cui Jun would feel relaxed.
Cui Jun knew that all the clues that seemed very obvious were often fake...
When Wang Ying loses his spirit on a fake clue, he can either make the fake ones real, which will leave flaws and handles, or he can only stop and go back in shame, or he will rely on Cui Jun and eventually lose the dominance of the entire incident.
So Cui Jun was also watching at the beginning.
But unexpectedly, in the end, I retreated under the circumstances and became a bystander...
"That's good," Cui Jun slowly stroked his beard, "It's the turn of others to be anxious..."
As Cui Jun expected, the anxious person appeared soon.
Among these Taiyuan surnames, the first one that cannot withstand is the Wen family.
From the beginning, Wen planned to be a yellow bird, and even planned to "assassinate" Wang Ying, trying to blame him.
Unfortunately, it was not successful.
But as the incident progressed, Wen did not dare to have any fantasies anymore...
Whether in Shandong or Guanzhong, the gentry family itself is a very large group, among which the longest-born family can even be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Over the past few hundred years, the ups and downs, the first ones are in the forefront, and the later ones are among the top. This is common. Just like the Wen family in Taiyuan, although the family is based on the closest Taiyuan as the foundation of the family business, it is not harmonious and intimate with other families. There may be family friendships between them, but there are also many enemies within a family. There are even people who are different from each other due to their relationships, and even those who do not interact with each other due to their longevity.
It is not uncommon for a big family to fight for family property and brothers to fight for each other.
Moreover, in a sense, Fei Qian is the current leader of Shanxi and the leader of all Shanxi families. For these Taiyuan gentry, Fei Qian controls the Three Auxiliary of Chang'an and makes Guanzhong the center of the world again, which is indeed a certain benefit, but these benefits are not all fulfilled in full, and may not satisfy their personal desires. Therefore, it is not incredible to make some small moves without hiding the family boss, but if they are discovered, they must accept the beating and punishment, or even hand over the head of the clan to apologize.
Wen felt that his family affairs might have been discovered...
Especially after the news spread, Wen realized that the situation was not good and became a little anxious.
Judging from now on, Wen’s previous actions are indeed a bit short-sighted and unwise.
But in the mentality of luck, who can be sober at all times?
The reason why Wen's idea of ​​escaping from Jinyang is naturally the first priority, but the problem is that there is no movement in Jinyang City for a long time, and then there are rumors that Wen's son escaped for fear of crime, and some dead bodies were found. The most important thing is that the workshop said it had found clues to the weapons...
That is, naturally, it’s quite a bit bad. How many people can sit steadily?
Wen Cheng has the smallest strength. If you want to avoid being sold, then you can only let other big guys fight each other and be a fisherman. But the problem is that everyone is safe and stable, and the wind direction is getting worse and worse, so Wen Wen finally surrendered and was eliminated first.
But if you surrender and lose half of it, uh, cough, surrender can be reduced, so the specific punishment will be relatively lighter...
Wen Cheng once gave up and apologized for his crime, and suddenly amazes the city of Jinyang.
There were officials of all sizes and big or small who were involved or benefited from smuggling, especially those who had had contact with Wen before, they had no idea whether they were exposed to the water. So, after finding out that Wen's son was not punished on the spot, but was just temporarily detained, these officials understood what they should do.
Taiyuan was not directly defeated by Fei Qian, but it can only be considered a vote.
Therefore, in Taiyuan, there are many old systems.
In the northern counties, Pingyang Zuochin was the first place to implement the reform of the new official system, followed by the Sanfu of Guanzhong, then the Han and other places in Hedong, and then after the incident of the Qiang people in Longyou, Fei Qian once again promoted the reform of the county and county official system.
Such reforms are of course beneficial to the entire Han bureaucracy. They divide the authority of local officials, make the responsibilities clearer and the division of labor clearer. At the same time, they strengthen the centralized power of the central government, strengthen the central personnel's right to speak over the local areas, and the separation of military and political affairs also makes local rebellion more difficult.
Just like at the moment, even if Cui Jun had some ideas, he could only use some tricks and dare not jump too high. Even when he saw that the momentum was wrong, he immediately changed his mind. Because Cui Jun had no military power at all, he had basically no military power since he left Xihe and took office in Taiyuan. At first, there was a commander, who could probably be considered a subordinate of Cui Jun, but later, after three or two adjustments, the commander became a patrol inspector, which was only targeted at local bandits and bandits, and was subject to many obstacles and did not carry out much.
As for why the inspection was not carried out in Taiyuan, and how much help it was not helpful to this smuggling case, is it clear that most of the management officials, including Cui Jun, know it.
Who is willing to divide the authority in his hands?
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cui Jun rides on the fence, shorts and longs. Although such behavior is disgusting, it has to be said that in many cases, these fence players make a lot of profits. Even if they fail occasionally, they will not be hurt. Otherwise, there would not be so many people in history who would choose to ride on the fence.
Of course, there are subordinates who are like that. Cui Jun changed direction and the lower-level officials were hesitant and confused. After hearing the news of Wen's surrender, they couldn't sit still. They also explained some unpainful things to show sincerity. At the same time, in order to pick themselves out, they betrayed some other people, but did not know their testimony. In the end, they formed a closed loop.
The fence-bearer fell when he saw the wind, and the dead-straight man Wang Huai was of course the last group to get the news.
Although Zhen Mi, who doesn't know what torture is, she knows how to sell her own products at a high price. For example, secret bidding is actually somewhat similar to the prisoner's psychology, and no one knows who will pay what price...
In order to find out where the situation had reached, Wang Huai had to go to the military camp in person. Although his face tried his best to maintain normality, his eyes were filled with fear and suspicion.
The military camp is not far from Jinyang City, and Wang Huai has been vaguely looking at it shortly after he has walked.
On the way, Wang Huai occasionally saw some familiar officials, but before Wang Huai could say hello, he saw those officials as if they were avoiding snakes and scorpions. Wang Huai felt that things might have deteriorated to the extreme, his heart was full of crisis, his face could not be maintained, and his eyes were constantly beating.
"Have you seen the eldest sister!" After finally entering the camp, Wang Ying was seen. Wang Huai quickly put on a habitual smile and went up to pay homage.
"Bold!" Zhen Mi, who was sitting on the side of Wang Ying, scolded without hesitation, "This place is a military camp! The leader is Yuyang Marquis! How can you be called privately? Do you want to despise the king and the prince?"
Zhen Mi had a beautiful face, but when her eyebrows raised, her face pulled down, and she felt a little murderous. Earlier, when she was in the Three Guards of Chang'an, Zhen Mi often dealed with guys similar to Wang Huai, and knew very well how to deal with these guys who were so harsh and weak.
Wang Huai was stunned when he heard Zhen Mi's scolding, and a little angry, but it collapsed quickly. He waved his hand and said: "How dare you, how dare you... It's just a momentary mistake. How can you despise Yuyang Hou..."
Zhen Mi said in a deep voice, "You don't have the courage to do this! Now the Marquis of Yuyang personally supervises the Taiyuan smuggling case, and has the right to arrest and inquire and kill illegally! I will forgive you for your disrespectful crime this time, but if there is another time, even if the Marquis of Yuyang doesn't ask, I will never give up easily!"
Wang Huai naturally apologized and apologized again, saying that he did not dare.
Zhen Mi bowed to Wang Ying, "Your Majesty is in the Taiyuan inspection. You are the same clan, but don't deceive old friends! If you have any conspiracy in your heart, you think that the Yuyang Majesty knows the hometown, and then commits fraud and deception, you are seeking death! Less gossip, since you have entered the camp to pay a visit, what statements can you say, and report it quickly!"
Wang Ying sat in the upper head, silent because her surname was also Wang.
The great man also has a moral concept of not breaking the law, so now she is not suitable to be a villain, so she can only be Zhen Mi.
The Taiyuan gentry group did not belong to the core group of Shanxi gentry from the beginning. Even when Wang Yun was in the time of the time, it seemed like a brief glory. After all, before Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, the leader of the gentry in Shanxi was the Yang family, and the Yang family was concentrated in the Heluo area, and areas like Taiyuan were relatively remote.
These gentry gentry in Taiyuan have basically disappeared. Most of them are retained by some of the ancestors' legacy. Most of them are not qualified to participate in the competition for the general trend of the DPRK, but they have more time and energy to operate in the countryside.
Ordinary ordinary people will not be their opponents, so they used to call the wind and rain and were self-conscious. It is precisely because of this that these people are relatively not as sensitive as the children of the Sanfu of Guanzhong, who are relatively keen on politics, relatively lagging, stupid, and self-righteous, and many of them are all focused on living their own lives in Taiyuan.
Now, it is time to correct these crooked branches.
