Chapter 798: blood rage

Chapter 798 Blood Rage

Jia Wuben went to call the Hu people from Fanfang to come, and planned to contact the old man Yingchao through them.

As the Changping envoy of Guangdong Dao, he is responsible for the money, food, taxes and taxes of a Dao, and the Hu merchants are also under his control.

"Duke Wei wants to see Assassin, please tell me."

"We don't know where Old Eagle's Nest is either."

Several barbarians and big merchants declined there.

"Oh, is that right, there is a saying in Central China, don't toast and eat fine wine."

Lao Jia stopped talking, and directly picked up a teacup to see off the guests.

Hu merchants walked out of the Changping envoy's office, looked at each other, then looked at each other and smiled, and walked away with some pride.

Lao Jia sat in the yamen, his face sinking like water.

If you don’t eat a toast, then you will have a fine bar. This is Guangzhou, the Guangzhou of the Tang Dynasty, not the Guangzhou of the barbarians.

"Come here, immediately check the shops, warehouses, and ships of all Hu merchants in Guangzhou."

The bearded Sanjar had just returned to the mansion in the city and sat down, but the guards followed in, "It's not good, many officers and soldiers came to surround the manor."

Sancar was taken aback, "What are they going to do?"

"The person who came here claimed to be from the Changping envoy Siyamen, and came to check taxes."

"Tax inspection?"

Hu people have to pay taxes when doing business in Guangzhou, but in fact, maritime merchants will also evade some taxes, or conceal them, or give bribes and gifts. Anyway, there are various methods to evade some taxes. This kind of thing has been an old rule for many years, and the filial piety that should be given will not be less, and everyone who should turn a blind eye to it knows it.

Since the reform of the tax system in Zhenguan, merchants have paid more taxes, but the relationship between the merchants and the subordinates is taken care of, and they will still find ways to evade taxes.

Now the transshipment envoy suddenly comes to check the tax. As long as you check carefully, you will definitely find some problems. It is impossible to do nothing without trace.

"Go and send them some money."

The means that have always worked, but this time it didn't work.

Although the leader of the team is an official from the Department of the Transit Envoy, but this time there are also marines transferred from the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, especially the Changping envoy above, who have spoken harshly, and no one dares to openly accept money at this time .

"You are suspected of bribing court officials!"

A navy captain in armor looked coldly at the barbarian's blatant bribery, and then announced in a loud voice that he would be arrested.

Sancar looked at the Tang people who broke into the house with an ugly expression.

"I am willing to pay back taxes."

The captain looked at the mansion a few times, then turned to the officials of the transfer envoy and said, "I heard that the Guangfu has a clear regulation that prohibits Han and Chinese from living together, and all the foreigners living in Guangzhou must move to Fan Fang in the west live and register in China, right?"

"That's true. This is the rule set by the governor of the party when he was in office. Later, governor Zhou didn't change it after he took over."

"It hasn't been changed yet." The captain said.

He waved his hand, "Arrest this bearded man, openly defying government orders, evading taxes, bribing court officials, arrest, and seal up this house!"

Sancar didn't expect the fire to be so fierce.

"This house was specially approved by the governor of the party."

The lieutenant said disdainfully, "Dang Renhong has long been expelled as a citizen, and has long been in Wu'an Prefecture. Do you have the approval of the governor of Zhou, and the approval of the new governor?"

Sancar couldn't get it.

Then the lieutenant waved his hand, and immediately the wolf-like sailors swarmed up, smashing the handles of their knives and swinging their spears, knocking down all the barbarians in the house, and dragging them away like dead dogs.

The lieutenant pulled Sanjar's beard and slapped him on the face.

"Do you know what it means to toast and not eat fine wine?"

"You will regret it!" Sancar was extremely angry. As the largest barbarian sea merchant in Guangzhou, his merchant fleet travels between the East and the West every year. His wealth is as rich as the country, and his family has been operating in Guangzhou for three hundred years. .

The captain slapped him down hard.

"Noisy!"

"A mere barbarian dares to be arrogant in my Tang Dynasty, court death, drag it down, and take good care of it!"

A soldier stabbed Sanjar's waist with a spear in his hand, making him lie on the ground in pain, and then dragged him down like a dead dog by his hair.

The green-robed official of the Transit Envoy, who is usually respected by the Sanjar family, looked so fierce at this time, and couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster, and his legs were shaking.

"Captain, this Sanjar is the largest barbarian sea merchant in Guangzhou, and he is very prestigious among the barbarians in Guangzhou. Isn't it a little too rough for us to do this? If it arouses the dissatisfaction of the barbarian merchants, I'm afraid it will affect Guangzhou's trade."

The lieutenant just looked at the official coldly, "What time is it, don't keep your **** tilted. Now is the time, don't go to the fire anymore, be careful of getting burned!"

The official immediately shut his mouth, not daring to say a word.

Qin Lang was not surprised when he heard that Lao Jia failed to contact the old man Yingchao through Hu Shang. If those people were so easy to talk to, they wouldn't have played this trick as soon as they came.

"What's the name of the religion taught by the old Eagle's Nest dog in Guangzhou? It's also called Manicheism?"

"Mr. Huiwei, the old dog of Eagle's Nest, at the beginning of his preaching in Guangzhou, named his sect Guangming Sect in order to spread it quickly, and established Dayun Guangming Temple in the city. Over the past 30 years, Guangming Temple has been expanded several times, covering a vast area. There are so many people.

Qin Lang sneered twice.

The small assassin organization is at best a larger green forest cottage, but it is a little more secretive, and it dares to go against the imperial court beyond its limits.

"Zhou Shaofan's sudden death in Guangzhou was probably assassinated by the Eagle's Nest faction." Qin Lang knocked on the table with his hand, "Since we want to start a war, we should spare no effort and go all out. Immediately draft an official document, and in accordance with the laws of the court, Guangming sect Without the permission of the imperial court, it is an evil cult spread illegally, and all the monks of the Guangming Sect who have not obtained the imperial court monk's certificate are all illegally ordained!"

"They are suspected of illegally spreading cults and illegally collecting property..."

Qin Lang listed dozens of crimes in one breath, and then ordered the banning of Guangming Sect, and confiscated the temples of Guangming Sect, as well as the money and property under his name, burned his books and pictures, and arrested his monks. All money and property belonging to the mansion under the monk's name will be confiscated.

In addition, for believers who believe in Guangming religion, they should also be ordered to hand in the books and pictures of Guangming religion, monk clothes and decorations, etc.

"Block the port, block the whole city!"

Qin Lang ordered in a cold voice.

"Human religions such as Aojiao and Nestorianism are illegally disseminated without the permission of the imperial court, and they are all banned."

······

The whole city is under martial law.

The navy entered the city and started a city-wide search.

There are countless Hu merchants in Guangzhou, and they also brought many foreign religions. In the past, the Guangzhou government turned a blind eye to these. I don't care.

But now, with Qin Lang's order, the soldiers of the navy are like wolves and tigers, showing no mercy.

Beat the dogs behind closed doors, search and arrest street by street.

All the temples of the Fan people were seized, and all the residences of the Hu people in the Sanchong City of Guangzhou outside Fanfang were also seized, and all the shops and warehouses were sealed up.

The Fanfang where the Fan people lived was also surrounded like an iron barrel. Soldiers filed in and began to search house by house.

Check taxation.

For some important commodities such as spices in the warehouses of Fanren shops, buy them directly. It's just that the price given by the Changping envoy is not high. The Tibetans will not lose money, but they will not make a profit.

Waves of Guangzhou officials ran to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, trying to stop the storm.

Their reasons are various, the most important one is that doing so will drive away the Hu merchants, and the Hu people will not come in the future. In the Southern Dynasties, there was a governor of Guangzhou who was very greedy and extorted too much bribes from Hu merchants. In the end, only three or five boats came to Guangzhou every year, which once made the port of Guangzhou withered. Later, it took several governors more than ten years to slowly Trade at the port of Canton resumed.

Qin Lang just smiled.

Then he took out a notebook and began to read it in public.

It records the illegal and criminal facts of Guangzhou local officials one after another, many of them accepted bribes from Tibetan businessmen.

"The real prime minister is the prime minister of the imperial court, and he is ordered to tour the southeast. He is the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and he passes through the south of the Lingnan River. He has the privilege of inheriting and worshiping, so he can do things cheaply."

"Double Jingle and Double Festival, please!"

Qin Lang said with a cold face, "Guangzhou household Cao Shenjun Zhao Yijie, you have embezzled and accepted bribes, filled your own pockets, betrayed the interests of the court, deceived the emperor and ignored you, please show the truth and behead you for public display!"

"Come here, drag this crime out and cut it off!"

Zhao Yijie, who is a member of the Cao family in Guangzhou, never expected that Qin Lang would be so vicious, "I don't accept it!"

"Hmph!" Qin Lang dismissed it.

"I want to appeal to the court, I want to appeal to the saint!"

Qin Lang said coldly, "You go to the underworld to file a complaint with the King of Hades, and see if the King of Hades thinks that your death is wronged. If the King of Hades really thinks that you have been wronged, then the King of Hades will bring you back to life, or you will die without guilt!"

"Saints have a three-repeat system for death sentences, and death sentences have to be reviewed by Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment. You are not qualified to kill me!"

"I am on an imperial mission, so I can kill first and play later!"

Several soldiers came up and dragged Zhao Yijie out like a dead dog. After a while, the shouting stopped, and the soldiers came up with his head.

A group of officials who interceded were all shocked and dumbfounded.

Qin Lang really wanted to kill him. Although this Zhao Yijie was not a high-ranking official, he was still a serious sixth-rank court official.

Qin Lang glanced at the group of people, those officials who had just been read out by Qin Lang, all fought in unison.

"Hmph, nothing."

Qin Lang picked up the notebook and began to pronounce the sentence.

or resignation, can be sent to prison.

Seventy-two people who committed serious crimes were executed directly.

In the city of Guangzhou, there were several yamen, the Governor's Mansion, the Observation Envoy, the Changping Envoy, the Governor's Office, Nanhai County, and even the Shibo Envoy's yamen. Qin Lang killed seventy-two officials in one go, saving more than a hundred One, and most of the others were demoted to pay for their crimes.

Then he appointed Cheng Chumo and other generals of the navy to take up temporary positions as officials in the yamen to handle public affairs.

"Hang up these dog heads for public display!" Qin Lang waved disdainfully at the severed heads of criminal officials.

The officials who were not executed escaped, all kneeling on the ground with their legs shaking.

"Guangzhou is too filthy and needs to be completely replaced. Otherwise, you may have forgotten that Guangzhou is the Guangzhou of the Tang Dynasty, and this day is the day of the saints."
