Chapter 1070 Jedi Counterattack
Dong Yun and Liao Hua really couldn't figure out why the Xinghan Society was so cruel to their own people.
But Huang Tong, the chamberlain who came out of the palace, looked at the corpses and then at the row of big boxes at the door.
His eyes flickered, as if he thought of something, and his eyes towards Zhao Guang became a little subtle.
The way Xinghanhui dealt with these people may be a bit rough in the eyes of some people.
There is even a suspicion that the rules of the society precede the national laws.
The princes of the imperial court may see it this way.
But...the emperor may not see it that way.
This is a matter of free conscience.
Because of the Xinghan Hui, it is possible that he expressed his loyalty to the emperor in this way.
This shows what?
In the eyes of Xinghanhui, the emperor is greater than the court?
Thinking of this, Huang Tong's eyes lit up slightly.
Having been with the empress all the time, he could naturally make some guesses about the psychology of the empress—especially the queen.
Thinking of this, Huang Tong couldn't help but sigh:
Feng Junhou really never betrays the trust of the emperor and empress!
Even if the princes of the imperial court had a mortal feud with Lord Feng, it would not be a big deal at all if they had to cling to national laws and conference rules on this matter.
At this sensitive moment, if you show your loyalty to the emperor, even if you suffer a temporary loss, you will definitely take advantage of it in the future.
And it’s hard to say what will happen to those who prevent Xinghan from showing loyalty to the emperor in the future.
Unless there is another prime minister in the court.
But, is it possible?
Besides, the person who did this is Zhao Erlang again.
If someone really insists on insisting on it, what if Zhao Erlang takes all the responsibility?
As long as Feng Junhou does not fall, what can happen to him?
Lose the General again?
More fines in salary?
Who said this matter was done roughly?
This is simply wonderful!
Huang Tong almost cried out in admiration.
Zhao Guang had no intention of caring about what Huang Tong was thinking.
Because he himself could not understand what his brother was doing when he ordered him to do these things.
After placing the boxes, he took out a piece of paper and said:
“Gentlemen, this is the person in the meeting who gave a list of all the people related to this matter before committing suicide.”
In fact, when Zhang Xiaosi was dealing with this matter in the early stage, he also had a similar list.
But the list that Zhao Guang brought out was obviously much longer than the list that Zhang Xiaosi handed over to Liao Hua, Dong Yun and others.
This time, it was Dong Yun's turn not to notice anything, but Liao Hua couldn't help but let out a slight "hiss".
Seeing this, Dong Yun asked softly:
“Prince Liao, what’s wrong?”
Xing Hanhui, this is obviously going to take things a step further!
“The people on the list involve many... large families in Liangzhou.”
Liao Hua smiled bitterly and explained to Dong Yun.
Dong Yun said "Oh" and looked at Zhao Guang subconsciously.
Is the Xing Hanhui planning to avenge their private revenge?
But then I thought about it, Xinghanhui has always been the thugs of the imperial court to attack aristocratic families.
It is their job to do this.
After realizing this and looking at the corpses all over the ground, Dong Yun was shocked and his expression changed drastically!
Because he suddenly understood why these people must die.
All the people involved in this incident in the Xinghan Society are dead, and the aristocratic families involved in this incident want to escape without dying?
Feng Guiwang...it was all premeditated!
He was planning to sacrifice dozens of lives in the Prosperous Han Society in exchange for the opportunity to attack the wealthy Liangzhou clan!
In other words, he simply took advantage of the situation.
In this way, the imperial court can further strengthen its control over Liangzhou, making up for the lack of suppression of Liangzhou's wealthy families after King Feng Gui left Liangzhou.
Even this approach can make the emperor feel good:
Where can we find such capable ministers and such loyal Xinghanhui?
This matter was originally unfavorable to King Feng Gui and the Xinghan Society, but he didn't expect that the situation could be reversed by Shengsheng and they fought back with all their might.
Is it true that he is the far-sighted King Feng Gui?
(Zhang Xiaosi, who was standing behind Feng Ghost King, smiled slightly, hiding his merit and fame.)
Dong Yun, who had some scruples in his heart, now became deeply afraid of King Feng Gui.
At this time, Dong Yun finally understood why the imperial court and the palace had sent people to Liangzhou together.
Inspection inspection. Since you are visiting Liangzhou on behalf of the court and the royal family, if you find problems, do you want to deal with them?
I see!
I see!
Originally, he was still thinking that if the three of him came together to deal with the matter of the Xinghan Conference, it would be too much of a mobilization of troops.
His mother’s wife!
It turns out that this is a shocking case!
What Dong Yun is thinking about now is whether his small body can handle this matter?
Where are the aristocratic and powerful families who are not all in the same spirit?
When I was involved in this matter, no one may have dared to say anything at the time, but people were concerned about the lack of safety after my death.
Feng Guiwang is far-sighted and has the Xinghanhui and the royal family behind him. Of course he is not afraid.
And what about yourself?
Just a small servant.
Dong Yun licked his chapped lips. He felt that his inner lining was already wet.
Feng Gui Wang... really doesn't do anything humanly possible if he is his mother's wife!
He gritted his teeth secretly again and glanced sideways at Huang Tong.
This **** knows everything but says nothing!
Huang Tong glanced at Dong Yun inexplicably.
Our family has done nothing, so why do we offend you?
“If this matter is not handled well, I’m afraid it will cause turmoil in Liangzhou.”
Dong Yun said in a somewhat astringent voice, looking at Liao Hua.
Feng Junhou took away the Liangzhou army. I don’t know if the army left behind in Liangzhou can suppress it enough?
If Feng Jishi was still in office, Dong Yun would definitely not have any scruples.
Just by his reputation, Feng Jishi is enough to control most people in Liangzhou - whether they are Hu people or Han people.
But Governor Feng is not here...
Liao Hua frowned.
Seeing his expression, Dong Yun's heart skipped a beat.
Liao Hua turned his attention to Zhao Guang.
Zhao Guang grinned:
“Three thousand armored cavalry have now passed Longyou and will arrive at Liangzhou in the near future.”
How could my brother come to Liangzhou alone without any preparation for a whole month?
Liao Hua and others looked at each other.
Sure enough!
No wonder!
Feng Guiwang sent Zhao Sanqian back for a profound reason.
Dong Yun was determined.
Then he glared at Huang Tong again. The emperor must have given instructions to King Feng Gui. Otherwise, how could he dare to mobilize the strongest cavalry army back to Liangzhou?
You didn’t even say a word to me!
If Huang Tong knew what Dong Yun was thinking at this time, he would probably shout that he was wronged:
What did the emperor and the empress have to say to Feng Junhou? How could they tell me about a domestic slave?
Besides, you are a servant and have no other authority. You still want to know the specific mobilization situation of a certain department and battalion of the army ahead?
Do you think you are the prime minister?
As for Liao Hua, he was a little emotional.
Feng Governor, you want to give yourself a clean Liangzhou before leaving office!
Liao Hua moved his lips, and finally just glanced at Zhao Guang gratefully.
For things like this, it’s better to say thank you in person to show your sincerity.
"If there are armored cavalry here, you don't have to worry too much about this matter."
Liao Hua pondered for a moment and finally settled the matter.
If you don't even dare to accept this matter, then you probably won't be able to get rid of your temporary title.
Even having a long history is considered a benevolence of the emperor.
“It’s just that there are so many things involved in this matter. If we really want to arrest all these people, how to deal with them is a difficult problem.”
Liangzhou is already a border state.
Even if they are exiled to the border counties, it is hard to say whether these people will suffer or enjoy the blessings in the current border counties.
Furthermore, there are really a lot of people...
"Don't worry about this. The Xinghan Society has a mine in Liangzhou that is specially used to refine sulfur."
"Speaking of which, this mine has something to do with the Liangzhou Army. If there is no place to detain them in the governor's office, Uncle Liao can put them there to serve as atonement."
Zhao Guang’s handsome face was filled with a bright smile:
"We will follow the market of Nanxiang, and each criminal will pay labor fees to the governor's office on an annual basis. We will give them a few years of their sentence. It is better than locking them up all the time."
Nanxiang and Yuexi were originally experimental areas specially set aside by the Prime Minister.
The current governance of many places in the Han Dynasty has drawn on the experience of Nanxiang and Yuexun, and at most it can be improved based on the actual local conditions.
Hence, it is not uncommon for prisoners to do hard labor to atone for their sins.
At least on the surface, it appears to be more tolerant than exile to the border areas or corporal punishment.
As for where to go to do labor service, that is not a matter of a word from the government?
But is the reputation of Nanxiang's ghosts dancing around in vain?
I heard that the mines in Nanxiang are haunted by evil spirits.
There is no strong and strong man who will not be sucked dry when he enters. After three years, when he comes out, he will be skinny and bones and can be blown down by a gust of wind.
The ranger who killed people without blinking an eye, after coming out from there, became the most law-abiding and good citizen, and did not dare to speak loudly.
Dong Yun looked at Zhao Guang's smile and felt a little chill in his body.
Feng Guiwang, you are planning to put people to death!
He is ruthless and ruthless. As expected, he only has the wrong name, not the wrong name.
Dong Yun silently told himself in his heart that he must not offend King Feng Gui in the future unless he had no choice.
Liao Hua himself has never been to Nanxiang.
Although he has heard relevant rumors, he already has a filter mentality towards Feng Junhou at this time.
Coupled with the rumors about Feng Junhou in Shu, which one is not an exaggeration?
Is it possible that the Ghost King can really control three thousand people at night?
So he just said that others were slandering him and didn't think much about it at all.
So according to his opinion, it is okay to deal with the people on the list in this way.
At the same time, it can also give Xinghanhui and Feng Junhou some face.
As for what happens to those people in the mine, does it matter?
You are criminals. You don’t want to atone for your sins, but you still want to have good food and drink?
He thought for a moment and nodded immediately:
“It’s a good idea. Do you two have any other ideas?”
Dong Yunzheng was full of thoughts and said nothing.
Huang waited for a while and saw that he didn't speak, so he could only say it himself:
“Before I left, Your Majesty only asked me to see and listen more, but did not allow me to speak more.”
Meaning that anything can be done.
Both of them expressed their intention to agree, and Dong Yun would definitely not be able to stand up to protect those people.
Between offending certain wealthy families in Liangzhou and offending King Feng Gui and Xinghanhui, is he crazy enough to offend King Feng Gui?
So the matter was settled.
A few days later, three thousand cavalry crossed the Hongchi Ridge and entered Liangzhou.
At the same time, the Liangzhou Governor's Office issued dozens of documents to arrest more people related to the case of illicit affairs outside the Great Wall.
There was a hero who rebelled on the right, and Zhao Guang personally led the cavalry to annihilate him, and his clan was defeated.
“Mr. Zhang, Gong Zhang, please save our lives!”
The Zhang family in Dunhuang suddenly had a lot of people.
Even the elders of the Zhang family’s side sects came to the clan’s house and spoke condescendingly to Zhang Zuo, who had returned from the Western Regions:
"Bo Zheng, we were too old and confused to understand your painstaking efforts. Now we realize that you are doing this for the good of our Zhang family."
In addition to the private traffic, the border county is robbed, and the people of the people are confused. How many big classes are there in Liangzhou?
At that time, when Secretary Zhang was dealing with people from the Zhang family, Zhang returned from the Western Regions and expressed support for Secretary Zhang on the spot.
Many people in the Zhang family were complaining because Zhang actually asked the government for help in order to secure his position as the head of the family.
It is really against everyone's taboo to use official power to interfere in family affairs.
Especially those whose family members had sons and nephews who were involved and were arrested, there were even those who relied on their seniority to criticize and criticize Huai.
Unexpectedly, this matter is not over yet?
Two big families in two places were wiped out in succession, which made many people panic and at the same time cursed endlessly:
It’s not moral!
Why is this Liu Han so unethical?
When you first took over Liangzhou, no one had any objections, right?
Now that you have just established a firm foothold, are you doing this?
Some people want to connect with each other, but suddenly find that the people who used to share the same hatred seem to be somewhat divided.
Those who are not involved are just unwilling to answer directly.
This, that, the state has national laws. Since everyone can make a lot of money by abiding by the law, why bother to engage in those evil ways?
Since you have a workshop as your mother, of course you would say so!
Swearing is enough, but scolding cannot solve the problem.
After looking around, I found that I still had to find the surname with the largest name in Liangzhou.
After several months of recuperation, Zhang finally regained his appearance as a member of a noble family.
His hair and beard are neatly trimmed, and he is dressed in a brocade robe. As soon as he sits there, his magnanimity comes out.
He took a leisurely sip of tea from his tea cup, turned a deaf ear to the noise outside the door, and then said to his uncles:
“I can’t write two characters in one stroke. As a descendant of the Zhang family and the head of the family, how could I harm the Zhang family?”
enter…
Bah!
It was you old guys who were clamoring about who you wanted to join in the first place?
Come, say one more thing and let me hear it.
“Yes, yes, Bo Zheng is taking a long-term view. Who would have thought that the rumors were true? That King Feng Gui is so cruel..."
“Uncle, be careful what you say!”
Zhang shouted loudly.
“Oh, I’m confused, I’m so old and confused!”
The old man apologized repeatedly, and then looked at Zhang Jiu hopefully:
"Bo Zheng, look, what should we do with our fourth son? He is the most promising person in our house..."
Without even raising an eyelid:
“Whatever the government says, let’s do it. Of course, if my uncle thinks he can compete with the armored cavalry, then just hide him.”
Most promising?
The current disaster was caused by him. How can he still make a difference?
The most short-sighted thing!
In the Zhang family, there were first some great men who carried out great righteousness, and then some of them made their own way to the Western Regions.
As long as the Zhang family obediently abides by their agreement with Feng Junhou, the descendants of the Zhang family will be able to be rich for three or five generations even if they have no future prospects.
Need to use other means?
do you need? !
It would be best if all of these most promising people died.
So as not to bring any more disaster to the Zhang family.
Zhang simply didn’t look at the pleading expressions of his uncles, and sneered to himself:
“Now the Han Dynasty has not only regained Guanzhong, but also Bingzhou and Hedong.”
“Liangzhou can raise horses, can Jiuyuan and Yanmen do so? Liangzhou can open workshops to weave wool, can Jiuyuan and Yanmen open?”
“You don’t want to consolidate Liangzhou’s current status, but instead secretly do some things that make the court disgusted. Is it because you think your life has been too good in the past few years?”
At this point, Zhang stood up suddenly and said word by word:
“The world has changed, uncles!”
