Chapter 1285 The Style of a Gentleman
“The conditions are simple, so please bear with me, sir. I wonder if you, sir, are here to come, what advice do you have?”
After a brief greeting, Zhu Ping’an sent Xu Hai to The others were invited into a shed at the East Lake construction site, he poured tea for them in porcelain bowls, and asked.
"Ahem, in recent days, there have been multiple memorials impeaching Mr. Zhu for colluding with grain merchants, driving up grain prices, and accepting bribes. We are here to verify according to the decree of the Holy One." Xu Hai coughed and said to Zhu Ping'an said.
The magistrate of Taiping on the side was sitting on pins and needles, his expression even worse due to constipation.
What? Impeach me for colluding with grain merchants, driving up grain prices, and accepting bribes?
Hearing this, Zhu Ping'an was slightly startled. He glanced at the expressions of everyone in the field without leaving any trace, and he already knew it in his heart.
Well, looking at the expressions of Mr. Xu, Magistrate Tan, and Zhang Baihu, the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, I guess they have already completed the verification secretly, and have proven my innocence, and they are also impressed by my grades. I was shocked.
Oh, Taiping Magistrate has such a constipated and restless expression. Among those who want to impeach him, there must be this Taiping Magistrate. Now, because the impeachment was wrong, he might be worried about his career
Master Wang, Master Zhang and Censor Peng, their expressions of looking at me unhappy but unable to do anything about it, probably They were ordered to punish me, Zhu Ping'an, for colluding with grain merchants and committing corruption, but they didn't expect that the impeachment was wrong, which resulted in the trip being in vain. It's hard to go back and report.
As for Zuo Zhen, this guy is probably not in the wrong direction, and his eyes seem to be filled with admiration? ! An unexpected new fanboy? ! This also proves from the side that Xu Hai and his party have verified my innocence and seen Jingnan's achievements.
It’s my turn to pretend, no, it’s my turn to show off.
So, Zhu Pingan twitched the corner of his mouth, smiled bitterly and handed over his hands to Xu Hai and others and said: "Haha, I guess it was Pingan's behavior of defining high food prices that broke the conventional conventions and caused misunderstandings. , they would impeach me. I secretly thought that their impeachment was for the sake of me, Jingnan Shiwanbai. Just give me your surname. However, the pure will be pure, and the dirty will be dirty. Just for the sake of Ping An, you have to travel all the way from the capital. No matter how Ping An checks, Ping An will cooperate unconditionally. "
After Zhu Pingan finished speaking, Xu Hai and others looked at Zhu Pingan with even more admiration.
What is the style of a gentleman? ! What can a prime minister do in his belly? ! What is aboveboard? !
That's it!
When you are impeached, you do not defend yourself, but you defend those who impeached you.
It has always been a villain's heart to judge a gentleman's belly, but Zhu Ping'an was able to judge a villain's belly with a gentleman's heart.
Not to mention, Zhu Pingan also expressed his unconditional support for cooperating with the verification, and his attitude was so upright!
As much as Xu Hai and others didn't appreciate it, Zuo Zhen was even more impressed by Zhu Ping'an's generosity and gentlemanly demeanor.
Of course, the expression of constipation on the Taiping Magistrate's face became even worse, and he wanted to find a mouse hole to crawl in
Well, the effect was good. Zhu Ping'an took everyone's expressions into his eyes, and secretly poked himself. Thumbs up.
"Ahem, in fact, we have basically verified that the impeachment was wrong and Mr. Zhu is innocent."
Xu Hai coughed and said softly.
"What? Already found out? You are so resolute and clear-sighted. I admire you for being safe."
Sure enough, Zhu Pingan knew it in his heart, but his face showed a timely expression of shock.
Next, Xu Hai and others further learned about the situation from Zhu Pingan, and Zhu Pingan ordered the officers to go to the county government office
Next, Xu Hai and others briefly talked with Zhu Pingan After investigating the situation and further understanding the relevant situation, Zhu Pingan sent people to the county government office to obtain the "Donation Agreement" signed by shopkeeper Yang and others as well as the "Donation Distribution Form" signed and stamped by the people when the donations were distributed, and displayed them to Xu Hai and others .
These "Donation Agreement" and "Donation Release Form" further confirmed Zhu Pingan's innocence. Xu Hai also took several copies from them as evidence to enrich the case closing materials.
When Wang Meng and others saw the "Donation Agreement" and "Donation Distribution Form", their faces became even darker, and they cursed in their hearts. Zhu Ping'an, this little thief is really treacherous. It turns out that he had been on guard for a long time. As of this day, with these "Donation Agreement" and "Donation Distribution Form", he has long been in an invincible position.
Perhaps, he is still looking forward to being impeached
Wang Meng and others thought bitterly.
I actually impeached such a person. Taiping Magistrate’s face has long been drained of blood.
"Master Zhu, we have traveled most of the south of the Yangtze River on this trip. Everywhere else, the fields are desolate and desolate, and countless people have died of hunger. Only your land has enough food and rice, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. It is full of vitality, just like Utopia. How did you come up with the idea of raising food prices?"
Xu Hai and others asked curiously.
Zhu Ping'an naturally had nothing to hide, and explained again what he had explained to the county officials and the demon Ruonan.
“We are very lucky to have Mr. Zhu in Jingnan by adapting measures to local conditions and implementing policies according to the times.” Xu Hai and others saw the actual situation in Jingnan with their own eyes, especially in sharp contrast with other places. It was easier and deeper to understand, and they couldn’t help but nod.
"Master Zhu, you have such a good method, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Tan Lun said half-praising and half-blaming.
"Master, since ancient times, when disasters such as floods and droughts occur, stabilizing food prices has been the first priority. This has been a rigid practice. The method of raising food prices breaks the conventional management and has It's contrary to common sense. I'm just a person, so I mentioned it to you. Will you believe me?"
Zhu Ping'an replied with a wry smile.
Tan Lun nodded when he heard this. If Zhu Pingan had mentioned it to him at that time, he would never believe it. He might even blame Zhu Pingan for being ridiculous and not taking the life and death of the people seriously.
Also, Before the floods occurred, Zhu Ping'an once submitted a flood reminder to himself. However, because he was in the new barracks at the time, the government officials did not take Zhu Pingan's reminder seriously and shelved it. In short, it was Zhu Pingan who mentioned it, and there was no response from his side. With such a criminal record, It's normal for Zhu Pingan to stop speaking. How can I blame Zhu Pingan?
"Master Zhu, when I return to Taizhou Prefecture, I want to follow your example in defining the price of food in Taizhou Prefecture and launching work-for-relief matters. I would like to ask Master Zhu to enlighten me on the key points and matters that need attention. "
Tan Lun raised his hands and said to Zhu Pingan.
"Your Majesty's words are serious. Even if your Majesty doesn't say anything, Ping An will speak out. I have drafted a draft of the relevant recommendations and am preparing to revise them and submit them to your Majesty in the near future. The matters needing attention, etc. are all in the proposal. ”
Zhu Pingan hurriedly stood up and returned the greeting. He took out a folded official document from his arms and handed it to Tan Lun with both hands.
"A Proposal for Taizhou Prefecture to Define Grain Prices and Relief for Work"
Tan Lun took it and read it. Just by looking at the title of the document, he knew that what Zhu Pingan said was true, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed of himself Just what I thought. (End of this chapter)
