One thousand three hundred thirty-three iron fist of justice

The first thing they did was to immediately launch a land reform action in Hangzhou City and its surrounding areas.

The Revival Association in the Liangzhe region organized all members to participate, and under the arrangement of Su Changsheng, Zhang Shi and others, launched a comprehensive liquidation and attack on the landlords and gentry in the Hangzhou Prefecture area.

This is a traditional skill of the Revival Society, and it is not difficult to operate.

Without much effort, they hung up the local landlords and gentry who were unaware of the entire process of action, and successfully turned them into one southeastern branch pendant after another.

As the main leader of the Jiangnan Regional Revival Association, Su Changsheng is mainly responsible for this part of the matter.

Zhang Shi has other tasks to be responsible for.

That's the second thing.

Zhang Shi decided to take this opportunity to conduct a comprehensive review of the officials and officials in the Hangzhou imperial court and the pursuit of stolen goods.

As the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty forty years, Hangzhou was also a famous place to hide its filth and dirt while flourishing. When many officials did illegal things, they would find a safe place inside and outside the city of Hangzhou to hide their own evidence of their crimes.

Most of these evidences are money, and some people also have physical evidence.

Most of the people who were preparing to escape this time were high-ranking officials and nobles. A large number of middle- and low-level officials did not escape, so they did not prepare in advance. A large amount of stolen goods were still in their hands, or they were hidden in a corner of Hangzhou City.

As the original high-ranking official of the court, Zhang Feng knew a lot about such incidents and knew that in addition to high-ranking officials and nobles, the small officials and officials below were also in chaos.

He wanted to completely clean Hangzhou City, so that all shameful activities would be revealed to the world, and to complete this liquidation task.

Revolution emphasizes one liquidation, and one clean and thorough, so the liquidation must be liquidated to the end, and there must be no omissions.

Don’t think that besides high-ranking officials and nobles, these small fish and shrimps are innocent. Small fish and shrimp are the main body, and the main body that directly brings pain to the people.

So how can I let them go?

Zhang Shi began a comprehensive action, conducting military management of Hangzhou City, liquidating officials and officials in Hangzhou City, and restricting entry and exit of Hangzhou City. No official documents are allowed to enter or leave.

Because there is better control over this aspect, there is no problem in Hangzhou City during the entire operation.

Senior officials and nobles were locked in prison and were under supervision, waiting for Su Yonglin to come before conducting a public trial.

The little fish and shrimps started the interrogation first, searching for the stolen goods, and letting them experience what the iron fist of justice is.

During the liquidation period, Zhang Bai also presided over a major overturn of the common people in Hangzhou. In order to mobilize the people in the city to launch a comprehensive struggle against the officials and officials, he allowed them to come to the Ming Dynasty government to speak out the names of the officials they wanted to sue, and then explain the matter clearly.

As long as they are bullied, they can tell anything, and they can tell what anyone has done.

As long as it is verified and proved that they are really victims, the Ming government will definitely give them justice.

When the news spread, the people in the entire Hangzhou city were mobilized.

They had too much bitterness in their hearts and wanted to spit it out, and they did not doubt the Ming Dynasty's complete liquidation of Jiangnan Kingdom.

It’s not the same country anymore, so it’s natural to bring up old accounts. Isn’t it beautiful to take this opportunity to take revenge and revenge?

So they went to the government to sue.

After a period of sorting, Zhang Xiao found that the most direct harm caused by ordinary people mainly comes from the group of officials.

Including those tax collectors, constables, city gate guards, etc., they will do everything they want to eat and take care of, and whoever gives more money will be directed to anyone. If they have a little power, they will have to play with flowers and make the people of Hangzhou live and die.

Any small friction and argument among the people is that when these guys make money, they tell the parties involved openly and secretly that as long as they give more money, they can be directed toward who they can.

This is quite conscientious.

Some of the two unscrupulous families took the lead, and finally they directly sent both parties to prison together and won twice by themselves.

Some minor officials are very unethical or simply have no moral character.

They especially like to bully widows and like to eat insignificant families.

These days, it is difficult for widows to survive alone. Once their husband dies, they will not have a son to support them. No matter how far apart the relatives of the husband's family are, they all come out to take away their husband's family's property, or deceive or directly take it away, which makes these widows very miserable.

Widows also have their own survival needs and will try every means to protect themselves. It would be fine if their parents' family is a little stronger or willing to help, but if their parents' family can't contribute, they can only rely on themselves.

Their main method is to find someone to get married, and then rely on the power of a newly married man to drive away those relatives who want to eat the worst.

Relatives who are more timid dare not compete with locals and often choose to retreat.

If you really want to meet some people who want money, then as locals, you will have certain advantages in the government. At worst, you can spend some money to bribe officials and let them know what home court advantage is.

Because this kind of thing is common to eat a family, some minor officials who have not yet married will look at their targets and talk to these widows about marriage.

They often use their local clerks as bargaining chips to select wealthier widows at home, so that these widows can believe them, marry them, and use their husband's property as dowry.

Then they will take action to beat and drive away the relatives who want to seize the property and enjoy the fruits.

Some widows are beautiful and these little officials can accept them, so they can live a peaceful life.

Some of the older or not very good-looking officials will find an excuse to divorce the widow soon, and thus directly acquire a lot of wealth.

There are really some minor officials who accumulate wealth by relying on this high-end way of surviving families and then become rich in Hangzhou, and suddenly become popular products in the local marriage and love market. Many good-looking daughters point to marry him, and matchmakers come to the door to talk about marriage one by one.

It's hard to say how many blood and tears of a miserable widow are mixed with it.

Of course, there was no way to liquidate the past, but now the times have changed and the era of the Great Reckoning has begun. After these things have been exposed, some guys who are as handsome as they are also judged by justice.

Since its establishment, the Hangzhou Special Trial Office has been constantly accused by the public. According to the content of the complaint, Zhang Xiao would ask someone to find relevant small officials and officials, pull them out to inquire about the whole story of the incident, and then make a trial and final execution after the investigation is made.

The people of Hangzhou were very fresh and excited about this.

It is very risky to sue officials with the people, and it has been like this throughout the years. However, an interesting hole has been opened in the Ming Dynasty. Although I don’t know how long it will last, at least now, they are very happy.

If you have revenge and revenge, you will come sooner or later.

Through this series of trials, these scumbags were executed in large numbers, and their property was also identified. If the victim is still alive, he will be returned to the victim. If the victim dies, he will be taken back to the treasury.

It has to be said that there are really many criminal incidents of this type, and from a general perspective, 98% of the minor officials in Hangzhou have done unethical things and need to be punished.

So much so that the remaining two percent of the minor officials can be called a miracle on earth.

Everything else is as expected by Zhang Feng and others in advance. Even if the news of Hangzhou City being occupied by the Ming army can be spread to other places, can these places organize the army of kings to launch a counterattack to retake Hangzhou?

Is there any other card that the Hangzhou imperial court can play?
