The magistrate and those with positions in the yamen were all investigated.

There are only three people here who are innocent, and the rest of them have all followed the magistrate to oppress the people or they have done things to oppress the people in private.

Luo Zining asked the people under his command to classify these people. Those who committed serious crimes were sentenced to death, and those who were not worthy of the death penalty were sent to the mines for labor reform. But before labor reform, they had to be whipped.Before the magistrate was beheaded, he pulled them over to whip the whip for the people to see, and to show everyone to relieve their anger.

The last category is minor, so they will be locked up for as many years as written in the law, and they will be fined.

All the property of the magistrate was confiscated. Several sons and some relatives of his family participated in the crime and were beheaded together. If his wife and daughter did not participate, the two of them would not be implicated. They were released and left to fend for themselves.

As for the prefect’s family members who were snatched to be maids and concubines, those whose family members were still alive would send her home, but most of them had no family members anymore, so Luo Zining arranged for them to work in factories and live in the house temporarily.dormitory.

If you don't want to work in a factory, you don't have to force yourself. If you want to make a living, you can find it yourself.

Some time before the execution, Huo Lingzhi notified the officials of Lincheng to come and watch together. On the day of the execution, not only the officials came to Lincheng, but also many people came to watch the fun.

I heard that a magistrate, three county magistrates, and a bunch of officials in the yamen were beheaded, and those who were whipped were whipped. This kind of new thing happened once in a century, and they must have come to watch the excitement.

Huo Lingzhi didn't let Luo Zining watch it, fearing that his little princess would be frightened, and Luo Zining was not interested in such bloody scenes, so he slept in at home, woke up and went to the space to hold a big boxIce cream went to the movies.

Huo Lingzhi led the patrol team to guard the scene, and when the prisoners were all brought to the place, the crowd of onlookers was already three floors in and out.

Those onlookers actually wanted to see not only the excitement of beheading, but also what the prince looked like. Hearing that the prince had a green face and fangs, he had to chop off a few people's heads every day to relieve boredom. Although they were scared, they were more curious.Wang Sheng wanted to see how terrifying the blue-faced fangs were.

After they saw the lord, they realized that not only did the lord not have the long teeth sticking out like a ghost, but he was also very handsome, but usually they would have to look at such a handsome person a few times, but they didn't dare to look at the lord, lordThere was a strong sense of coercion on Huo Lingzhi's body. If they stared at him, they would be overwhelmed. After a quick glance, they dared not look at Huo Lingzhi again.

Huo Lingzhi didn't care about the eyes of the people on him, and arranged the work on the spot.

He first asked people to bring up a group of people with the lightest crimes, and asked them to read their crimes and how many years they had been imprisoned, and then let them kneel on the side to show the public.

When they were pressed to kneel on the side, each of them lowered their heads and dared not look up at the surrounding people, but the aborigines in the fief remembered their ugly faces at the beginning, and threw rotten vegetables, leaves and rotten eggs on themThrow.

Except for the aborigines who threw it, those who watched the excitement also threw it together. Although those who watched the excitement in Lincheng had not been bullied by these people, they felt that it was exciting to throw it, so they also threw it together. Soon they were almost buried by the rotten leaves.Woke up.

Immediately afterwards, Huo Lingzhi ordered people to bring up the group of people who were to be whipped, read their criminal evidence according to the procedure, and then ordered someone to execute them with a whip.

Among them were those with twenty lashes, fifty lashes, and eighty lashes.

After twenty lashes, the person is already bloody, the one with fifty lashes is half dead, and the one with eighty lashes dies on the spot.

After smoking these people, they were taken down. Those who died were directly buried in mass graves, and those who were still alive were locked up first. They could not be allowed to die, but they had to go to mine.

The final highlight was the beheading. Except for the prefect, all the prisoners on death row were lined up and beheaded by the executioner one by one.

The heads fell one by one, and even the most courageous people dare not look directly at it for a long time. This scene is too bloody.

Finally, there was the magistrate, and Huo Lingzhi called all the aborigines in the fief, "You all go up and cut off a piece of his body, do you dare?"

When the prefect heard this, his head was paralyzed with fright, and he cried and said, "My lord, please give me a good time! Don't torture me."

"It's not just about daring, one knife is not enough! We can't wait to cut him into pieces!"

"Happy to you? My parents and grandparents underground won't agree!"

"Yes, when you robbed my family heirloom, killed my parents, and tortured my sister, why didn't you see your soft heart and give our family a happy time?"

"You should ask the doctor to cook some ginseng soup, hang his life, don't cut him two or three times and die!"

The prefect fainted when he heard the shouts of those people, but was soon woken up by a ladle of cold water, and then those people who were eager for revenge came to the stage with knives to vent their anger.

...

Luo Zining didn't go to the scene to see it, but he heard that blood flowed into rivers at the execution site, and it took several days to wash away the blood on the ground.

Luo Zining went out to work recently, and Huo Lingzhi deliberately asked him to avoid that section of the road, as there was still some bloody smell there.

Luo Zining asked someone to build another storehouse in the palace, this time it was going to be bigger, several times bigger than the storehouse where the mansion's gold and silver treasures were stored before.

Fortunately, the palace has a large area, so it can be built casually. After the construction is completed, all the gold and silver treasures obtained from the raid will be stored in the warehouse.

The magistrate embezzled so much money that it filled a whole warehouse.

After Luo Zining called Chen Bo to settle the accounts, he allocated another part of the military expenses to Huo Lingzhi, asking him to expand the number of troops, to have better equipment and clothing, and to increase the bonuses for those who made meritorious deeds.

In addition to allocating part of the money for military expenses, he also opened several factories, this time the factories went to Lincheng.

In addition, he is preparing to hold the second exam, but Lincheng still has a newly acquired territory.take an exam.

He also needs to rectify the officialdom, and replace those who do not fit his policies.

He asked Lincheng and the other side of the eastern territory to send 1,000 people for training, and the requirements were mixed for men and women.

As long as you can read and write, you can send it over, no need for high knowledge.

Fifty of the 500 people in the last exam were retained, and he thought he would be thankful if he could keep 200 out of the 2,000 people.

In fact, Luo Zining also considered one point, if he had read too many old ideas and was full of feudal thoughts, he probably wouldn't listen to him, and maybe he would stop him from doing it.

But he can't knock down a group of scholars without trying. Those scholars have been studying hard for several years, and the policy is suddenly changed, and they will study for nothing. That would be too bad.

He was going to wait for people to send them over and then screen them one by one. First, let the people he selected in the previous exams train the newcomers, then take the exams, and then let them practice in the fief. After that, it depends on their performance.

After the officials and people in Lincheng watched the criminal law, they couldn't calm down for a long time when they went back. They knew what the prince was thinking.Same.

So when they heard the princess said that they would send 1,000 people to train, and that half of the men and women would be divided into two, they immediately went to do it, and they didn't dare to be ambiguous at all.

But the people in the territory of the feudal king in the east were not so obedient. Although they were attacked by Huo Lingzhi and the feudal king was killed, the officials there were not convinced by Huo Lingzhi in their hearts.

Luo Zining said that he would send a thousand people there, and he also said that there should be a mix of men and women. They were very dissatisfied, especially when they heard that women in the fief could also be officials.

But they didn't dare to confront the concubine openly, for fear that Huo Lingzhi would kill them all. The men above the selection would look for them in the academy. It would be too easy to gather 500 people, but the women would find them at will.

The feudal land of the feudal king in the east is much larger than that of Huo Lingzhi. There are several cities and more than a dozen small counties. The officials found many girls in the brothels in these cities and small counties.It was very large, with hundreds of girls in each family, and thousands of girls in the largest family. They gathered 500 people from these brothels.

In their eyes, these girls are not decent people, but they meet Luo Zining's requirements of being able to read and write. They think that their actions not only disgust Luo Zining, but also make Luo Zining unable to embarrass them, because they all did as required.

But they didn't expect that Luo Zining didn't care about the origins of these girls at all. He built a school specially, and these two thousand people lived in the dormitory of the school and went to class every day.

After entering the school, everyone, regardless of gender, puts on uniforms, and is randomly assigned to classes. After a period of class, they will take an exam. They will be assigned to classes according to their grades, and then they will be eliminated after the exam. They will not be assigned jobs until the training is over and then they will take the imperial examination.to practice.

Luo Zining even held a meeting for these two thousand people at the beginning of the school year, telling them that no matter what background they were in the past, they would have the opportunity to be officials in the future. In his school, no one should look down on them because of their background.Others, don't make trouble because of this. Anyone who violates his rules will be expelled. If the circumstances are serious, such as causing physical injury to a classmate, they will be thrown into prison.

But on the day of the meeting, there were a few self-proclaimed high-minded scholars who were not convinced by Luo Zining's regulations, and even raised opinions on Luo Zining, saying many things that belittled women, thinking that they should not be allowed to be officials, they are irrational and weak,The benevolence of a woman, how can I be an official?If the princess insists on going her own way, the country will end sooner or later.

And they also said that it was a shame to study with these women, especially when there were many brothel women among these women.

Luo Zining directly asked them to drive them out. He didn't reason with those people, because it's not that saying some big principles can change these people's thinking, but it will also make him angry. It's better not to explain, butAfter driving those people out, he explained to the rest.

Luo Zining: "I set these regulations. Anyone among you who doesn't want to abide by them can leave now, but I said before that, the prince will return to Beijing in less than two years, and the prince will become the emperor at that time.The imperial examination system will be run according to my rules, and those of you who don’t want to be an official can leave, but if you want to become an official, even if you don’t agree with it in your heart, you have to hold your nose and bear it.”

After he finished talking like this, there was a complete silence. Everyone sat upright and listened carefully to Luo Zining's meeting for them.
