Chapter 933 Extremely Bad

Although Nanxiong is poor, it is not enough to have enough to eat.

The land has been divided, and the seeds of hybrid rice are also distributed. As long as the family is not lazy, they will not be hungry.

The villagers in front of them are yellow and thin, and their feet are sloppy, which is obviously the result of long-term starvation.

"Old man, do you usually have enough to eat?"

Wu Changqing asked.

Lai Youlin immediately translated the words, but Wu Changqing was surprised to find that what Lai Youlin translated was "Old man, are you as full as you used to be?"

Although the local dialect of Tongxian Town at this time is slightly different from that of later generations, they are basically the same, and Wu Changqing can understand it.

Interesting, why did this guy change his words?

Wu Changqing sneered in his heart. He didn't think Lai Youlin made a mistake. After all, he usually eats enough, and whether he is fuller than before, the meanings of the two sentences are quite different.

No matter how many mistakes, it is impossible to become like this.

The old man nodded.

"Why are you so skinny when you're full?"

Wu Changqing continued to ask.

Lai Youlin then translated to the old man, and when the old man finished speaking, he then translated to Wu Changqing.

However, what he translated was not the original words at all.

Lai Youlin said: "The old man said that he is not in good health, and has always been like this..."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Changqing slapped him on the face, threw Lai Youlin's fan on the ground, and knocked it on the stone, so he was in a mess.

Wu Changqing had also fought on horseback before, and no civil servant could compare to him in terms of strength.

The sudden change surprised everyone.

However, the emperor, slapping someone for no reason is a trivial matter.

"Dog, you think I can't understand the Shaozhou dialect, and you dare to lie to me in front of me, saying that you have something shameful that you need to hide from me."

After a slap, Wu Changqing kicked him twice again.

If Lai Youlin was mediocre and incompetent and failed to manage Nanxiong well, Wu Changqing would be disappointed with him at most, but he would not be angry.

But cheating him in front of him is intolerable.

Moreover, there must be a reason for taking such a big risk to deceive the king.

What?

Hearing that Lai Youlin dared to bully Jun Wangshang, still in front of the emperor, all the officials who followed were enraged.

When he was angry, he ignored why Wu Changqing could understand Shaozhou dialect.

However, even if they noticed, they wouldn't think too much about it.

After all, it is not a big deal for a wise and unparalleled emperor who knows astronomy and geography to be able to understand a little dialect. Compared with the miracles created by Wu Changqing before, it is simply a child's science, not worth mentioning.

At this time, Lai Youlin felt dumbfounded, how wronged he was.

Even if he was beaten to death, he couldn't figure out why Wu Changqing, a native of Zhejiang, could understand the Shaozhou dialect, which was outrageous.

Not to mention the people from Zhejiang, even the city people in Nanxiong County can't understand the dialect of this village.

The cause is no longer important, the consequence is important.

For the crime of deceiving the emperor, Lai Youlin wanted to cry but had no tears.

Of course he understands the fate of such a crime, not to mention it is still in front of the emperor.

"I deserve death for my crimes, my minister..."

Lai Youlin really wanted to find a reason and excuse, but he couldn't find a suitable one.

If you had to make up a random reason, wouldn't that be insulting the emperor's IQ again, and that would be adding to the crime.

In desperation, Lai Youlin could only beg for mercy.

Although most of the ground was covered with yellow mud, there were still some broken stones on the yellow mud, and Lai Youlin couldn't care less about it, and kowtowed for mercy.

After just a few knocks, his forehead was already bleeding, and even those with a soft heart couldn't bear to look at it, it was very miserable.

However, none of the accompanying officials and soldiers sympathized with him.

The crime of deceiving the emperor deserves it even if he dies, what is this misery. After going to the prison of the Intelligence Bureau, there are even worse things waiting for him.

"Let's talk about the problem first."

Wu Changqing said coldly.

Now that the matter is up to now, Lai Youlin dare not hide it anymore, and he can't hide it anymore.

Just ask those villagers, and all that stuff about him will come to light.

Speaking of it, what Lai Youlin committed was not particularly serious, it was just corruption.

It's just that his corruption methods are worse.

Corruption can also be divided into several types, such as bribery by businessmen to obtain a quota. Although this is illegal, the impact will not be too great. Anyway, the quota must be given to people, but it is just a question of who to give it to.

Another kind is bribery by businessmen, illegal profit-making, cutting corners and so on. These will cause some harm, and the situation is more serious.

There is also a kind like Lai Youlin, who makes profits by taking away the common people, and the influence is extremely bad.

There are several places where Lai Youlin has been corrupted, one of which is the embezzlement of subsidies.

The imperial court has a policy of encouraging childbirth. The imperial court will subsidize food for children born two years after Yongxing until they are ten years old. The intensity is quite strong.

There is no way, Wu Changqing is so greedy for the population.

And Lai Youlin was greedy for the money, and forced the people in the jurisdiction to live hard.

The result is that many children are born, and the subsidies they receive are very little, so the family is relatively poor.

It's hard to get full.

Even worse, some families even starved their children to death because of this, and some people gave their children to rich people. Those who couldn't find a way to give it away were directly abandoned.

Those who were not abandoned were also malnourished and had a miserable life anyway.

Therefore, Lai Youlin's matter is very serious and he has committed a lot of crimes.

Furious, Wu Changqing stayed in Nanxiong for several days, waiting for the statistics.

At least one hundred babies died because of Lai Youlin's embezzlement of subsidy funds, and this is only the data of his two years in office.

There are thousands of other children who were sent away and sold because of him.

Therefore, there are more malnourished.

After the statistics were collected, everyone knew that Lai Youlin was dead.

Not only Lai Youlin, but also several officials involved in this incident, none of them could escape.

After all, this is more than a hundred lives, and it is still a baby, which is too serious morally.

Without severe punishment, it is difficult for the people to be angry.

"I just made a surprise inspection of one place and discovered such a serious matter. Who can tell me how many places like this there are in the world? How many shady things I don't know?"

Wu Changqing went into a rage, and the ministers who followed him dared not make a sound.

There is really no way to answer this question.

Are there any other places?

there must be.

There is no need to investigate this, these officials are sure.

Of course, there are not many places like this, and there are only a few people like Lai Youlin who are insane.

However, at this time Wu Changqing was in a fit of anger, these people didn't dare to explain, they could only wait for Wu Changqing's anger to subside.
