Chapter 233 Comparison

The Clean West Operation has not stopped in Jingxi, but as the starting point and core area of ​​the Clean West Operation, Fengri City's jurisdiction has already begun to end, which is completely opposite to the situation in other places outside the Fengri City's jurisdiction that has intensified.

The reason is also simple, Shen Hao is personally arresting Fengri City, and the intelligence is dispatched in advance, and then arrests people in a unified manner, and there is no time for these "big shots" to react. The subsequent Zhulian also acted quickly and without sloppiness. More than 80% of the Zhulians did not have time to escape.

The criminals were almost taken away, and they were all locked up in the dungeon. Naturally, there were not many arresting scenes of crying father and mother outside. Passers-by on the street are still living their lives as they should, except that when they pass by the high gate and red wall from time to time, they will curl their lips when they see the seal on the door.

For ordinary people, the "big shots" are the ones who suffer, and they are too far away from them. Even gossiping after dinner is not grounded, and it is not as exciting as the affairs of Widow Zhang's house next door.

Compared to Fengri City, which is turbulent but fast and calm, other places in Jingxi are much more complicated.

First of all, apart from Fengri City, many other places in Jingxi were also involved in the large-scale smuggling of strictly controlled materials from the Baijiang River Basin to the barbarians in the south, and the severity was not inferior to what happened in Fengri City. However, these criminals were not arrested immediately. Even the news from Fengri City has spread all over Jingxi, these people are still safe and sound, they have a lot of time to plan, hold together, cast aside, ask for help.

escape? That is the worst policy, if it is not desperate, who would want to run away?

Besides, daring to engage in large-scale smuggling activities that benefit the country and benefit the country is definitely worthy of the "big man" claiming to be a "big man". The network of relationships under his feet is intricate, especially who doesn't get the money with his left hand and out with his right hand. Now if I get hurt, no one will run away!

Even Xuan Qingwei himself could not withstand beatings. Although he didn't have much contact with the local people in the past, Xuan Qingwei's signboard can still attract flies. If he comes and goes, he might become a part of his relationship network one day. Now if he wants to be stern and selfless, he must be tough enough himself. .

Therefore, it is very appropriate to use a chicken feather to describe the places in Jingxi other than Fengri City.

Moreover, this situation has begun to spread to other places in the country as Jingxi has intentionally or unintentionally disclosed more information about the smuggling boats seized in Baijiang Mountain.

Just as Shen Hao estimated at the beginning, with such a large amount of transportation on the Baijiang River, it is impossible to only go to Jingxi, and it is impossible to travel to other places.

It's just that Shen Hao never expected that the situation would change so much in various places.

When did Xuan Qingwei become so powerless? Still messing with the place?

don't know.

But in Shen Hao's hands, there is no space for others to sing. He had directly expressed his opinion to Xie Youlin, the chief officer of Fengri City, that the smuggling case should not be handled by Xuan Qingwei, but it would be different when it involved barbarians. root cause. Wu Changhe knew these expired secrets first, so it's okay for Xie Youlin to know.

Because the nature of the smuggling and control of materials to the barbarians is quite different, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an enemy and treason, and Xuan Qingwei has the power to independently investigate and handle the whole process without going through the local government and laws. program.

From this point of view, Xuan Qingwei's power is indeed overwhelming, and it is precisely because of this that many people criticize it.

The first batch of criminals who were arrested had already uttered what they needed to say in their stomachs. After Shen Hao asked Jiang Cheng for instructions, he went straight to the legal procedure. Collaboration with the enemy country will be punished, beheaded at the waist, and the three clans will be punished. Degraded from crime, beheaded in half, not implicating family members.

All the procedures were quickly simplified in the hands of Xuan Qingwei. As long as the evidence on the file was convincing and the confession was obtained, the prisoner would be charged directly. Procedures such as interrogation and confrontation were not necessary at all. The bundled files that night were stamped "Case Closed".

Closing the case means that the names on the file have completely become personal names, and no longer have the usefulness of representing individual lives.

That night, 4,912 people were secretly executed in Xuanqingwei's prison. According to the "cutting in half" in the order of the governor's office, there is no perfunctory at all. It will take an hour to die. The loud screams made the residents around the guards terrified, and at the same time they thought to themselves: No wonder the houses here are so cheap.

The next day, when the cart convoy pulling the corpses came out of the dungeon before dawn, their vests were cold, as if they had walked around the slaughterhouse, the kind that slaughters people.

This is the request of the governor's yamen. All the criminals in this case are not allowed to be executed in public and can only be executed in secret.

It's also reasonable, after all, if the common people know that those "big shots" who show off their power on weekdays are secretly engaged in shameless deeds that harm the country and enrich selfishness, they might be stimulated. This is not good for the foundation of the country, so it is best to let these black sheep die quietly.

When Shen Hao finished executing the criminals and started confiscating his family property, the situation report from Fengri City was also quickly spread to the Fushi Yamen of Jingxi Town.

And Jiang Cheng seemed to have been waiting for the execution report for a long time, opened it and read it, and nodded in satisfaction. Especially the sentence at the end of the dossier: The prisoner was executed, the turmoil in Fengri City's jurisdiction has subsided, new officials have filled the vacancies one after another, and all of them are doing their duty with trepidation, and the atmosphere of Fengri City has taken on a new look.

Shen Hao was embellishing his report. After all, after the big move, the area under the jurisdiction of Fengri City was considered stable compared to other places, and it had begun to return to normal, so it was natural for him to make a fuss about it. But these words have different meanings in Jiang Cheng's eyes.

Less than a meal's time after receiving the dossier from Fengricheng, Jiang Chengcheng personally delivered it to the Commander's Yamen. The Da Da people had specifically told him before, asking him to report the news about Fengri City as soon as possible.

Pang Ban was still calm and breezy, after reading the file Jiang Cheng sent up, he nodded and didn't express much. Instead, he asked about the roundup in Xiaochuan before.

"How do you plan to deal with those pseudo-evil monks?"

Jiang Cheng bowed and replied, "This subordinate has prepared another file."

Before he finished speaking, Pang Ban waved his hand and interrupted: "The hundred households under your family named Shen are good and thoughtful, and he also picked out these fake monks, right? Continue to hand over this case to him Do it. Give him an order to do things cheaply, and see how far he can check."
