Chapter 212 I want to give you a way out
"Irrefutable proof, I'm afraid it won't take much effort from my husband."
Chu Nanzhi squinted her eyes lightly, and said with a half-smile, "It's not difficult to find some evidence for your sudden downfall. , I must have sorted out a lot by now."
"Who dares to betray this official?"
Kang Mingyuan said angrily.
"It's the Master Registrar you have always relied on."
Hearing this, Hu Maoxi finally couldn't help interjecting:
"He accused you of disregarding human life, extortionate taxation, privately increasing fishing tax and salt tax, and cleverly setting up all kinds of bright eyes to amass wealth, making people's livelihood difficult. It is recorded in the book, Master Lin has almost finished sorting it out when I come here, and with Mr. Tan doing the work for you, the officers who investigated private salts can come to a conclusion without any effort today, you just need to wait patiently."
"Tan Miao is a bastard, I treat him well, but this guy treats me like this."
Kang Mingyuan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, his veins exposed in anger: "I want to impeach him."
It was only when the words were out of my mouth that I suddenly realized that I had worked with this person for many years, and seemed to be a familiar stranger. Apart from knowing that he was eloquent and submissive to me, I didn't have the slightest clue about him.
Grandma is a bear.
Chu Nanzhi looked at his gradually depressed face, and couldn't help but sneered coldly: "It seems that Mr. Kang's wish to be impeached is about to fail?"
Kang Mingyuan frowned, and after concentrating on thinking, he suddenly said in a heavy voice: "Since Mrs. Lin has already grasped the evidence, why does Mrs. Chu come to interrogate me?"
"I want to find a way out for you."
Chu Nanzhi said solemnly: "Or ask for some blessings for your family, Mr. Tan is not with you day and night, there are always some things he doesn't know, if you can take the initiative to confess, maybe It can reduce the punishment, and at least your family members will not be implicated."
"You would be so kind?"
Kang Mingyuan sneered: "You came here on purpose, but you just wanted to inquire about Zhu Yue's murder case. I can tell you clearly about this, and I don't know."
He was like a bright mirror in his heart. The things Tan Miao knew were nothing more than the involvement of secular interests. Even if he investigated clearly, he would be dismissed from office. Confessing something else to this woman is another matter.
Now that Qi Luan is dead, as long as he bites his tongue, he will be able to survive.
Seeing that his eyes were firm, Chu Nanzhi deliberately didn't mention Zhu Yue's matter, and then said, "Why don't we talk about the deaths of the previous two county magistrates, or about the daughter of the wealthy family in the west of the city who hanged herself? "
Hearing this, Kang Mingyuan's eyes darkened, and he closed his eyes immediately with a forced composure: "No comment."
"Okay, let Mr. Kang rest for a while."
Chu Nanzhi greeted the servant who was doing waterboarding: "Serve and serve Mr. Kang well."
Before Kang Mingyuan could react, he was pushed down on the bench by several people and **** in a row. Afterwards, a black cloth was directly covered on his face, and his eyes were immediately dark.
Chu Nanzhi looked at the steaming heat, and asked in surprise, "Why is it still hot water?"
The yamen servant has rich experience, and he replied calmly: "Miss Chu, don't worry, the effect of hot water is better. If you adjust the temperature, it won't burn you to death."
"This is good, this is good."
Chu Nanzhi looked happily at Hu Maoxi, who was calm and composed: "Master Kang has been tossing a lot today, and I used hot water to refresh him, just to relieve his fatigue before he has the energy to talk to everyone."
Seeing this situation, Hu Maoxi frowned coldly and said, "Ms. Chu thinks this is useful?"
This might not be as satisfying and satisfying as beating him severely.
Chu Nanzhi just smiled without saying a word, quietly staring at the more and more accumulated water on the face cloth, and it didn't take long before Kang Mingyuan's voice of "babbling" and struggling desperately came out.
"Take off the veil."
Chu Nanzhi gave orders, and seeing Kang Mingyuan's fair face revealed, he asked slowly: "How is it, Master Kang, is there anything you want to say to me?"
"Mr. Chu, you bitch, kill me with one blow if you have the ability, don't play these dirty tricks."
Kang Mingyuan vented angrily.
"The folk women are just eager to learn when they first come here, and they want to help adults feel the tricks you created yourself. If you want to say shameless, I am really ashamed in front of adults."
Seeing that he was still very stubborn, Chu Nanzhi told the servants: "It seems that Mr. Kang is still not clear enough, help him to refresh himself."
The yamen servants put the veil on him again and continued to pour water on it.
This time, Kang Mingyuan gritted his teeth for half an hour, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and begged for mercy. The moment the yamen servants took off the veil, he was sweating profusely and took a few breaths before he was out of breath. He replied angrily: "I will recruit, I will recruit, please don't torture me anymore."
"Row."
Chu Nanzhi first looked at Hu Maoxi: "Master Hu, first confirm whether the facts Tan Miao confessed are consistent with what he said."
Hu Maoxi nodded happily, took the transcribed crimes and asked one by one:
"In the third year of the Ming Dynasty, when you first took office, you levied 10% of the salt tax without permission. Is there such a thing?"
"Have."
"In the fourth year of the Ming Dynasty, you made a clever plan to first increase the fishing tax by 10%, and then forcibly expropriate a 200-acre fish pond ten miles south of the city to contract it to the fisherman Kang Mingtang to earn private money, right?"
"Yes."
"In the seven years of Ming Dynasty, you banned the sea salt field, suppressed private salt on the surface, and secretly instructed the salt officials to collect private salt at a price three times lower than that produced by the sea salt field, mix it with salt warehouses and sell it into the county, resulting in a large number of crudely produced private salt. Salt has been mixed into the market so far, can you admit it?"
"I think."
"In the twelfth year of the Ming Dynasty, you indulged in the 350-acre fish pond in the north of the Forbidden City in the Kangmingtang circle, causing hundreds of households to be displaced and drifting on the sea. How can this happen?"
Kang Mingyuan closed his eyes, unable to answer: "Yes."
And these things are not all airtight. Tan Miao has given clues, and anyone who is interested can find out thoroughly as long as they check casually, and he has to confess.
After reading this, Hu Maoxi secretly clenched his fists, looking at the big and small crimes listed, everything was detailed, even the time, occasion and even the witnesses were clearly written, and there was no room for this guy to refute.
Thinking of the adverse reactions that occurred after eating those shoddy private salts yesterday, he became even more annoyed, gripping the accusation in his hand, gritted his teeth and said: "Kang Mingyuan, I wish I could break your body into thousands of pieces to relieve the hatred in my heart. "
Chu Nanzhi listened to the questions and answers of these two people, but she didn't want to continue listening.
Sure enough, he is a dog official with no conscience, and this way of life is probably impossible.
Looking deeply at Kang Mingyuan, the corners of Chu Nanzhi's mouth twitched slightly, and slowly asked meaningfully: "Master Kang, then let's talk about things Master Tan doesn't know about."
