Chapter 285: The Liu clan, North Gate bachelor

At the gate of the county government office, Li Xuan took the lead, followed by a group of Qianniu guards in two rows.

A group of people rode slowly from the end of the street.

Almost everyone is the same. The Thousand Ox Sword is thrown aside casually, looking very lazy, but if you look closely, you can see that their hands are holding the reins tightly and their bodies are straight.

It seems that whenever there is danger, it will immediately turn into a leaping tiger, grab a knife and fight.

The group of people was not moving very fast, and everyone's face had no expression, but under the flickering lights, they looked inexplicably eye-catching.

Kang Yao stood at the gate of the county government office, looking at the Qianniu Guards headed by Li Xuan approaching, with a serious look on his face.

He came down from the battlefield in the Western Region, and it could be seen at a glance that Li Xuan had led this group of Qianniu Guards to experience a massacre.

Seeing the posture of the Qianniu Guards with almost no one missing, Kang Yao knew that this must be an almost one-sided massacre.

Kang Yao subconsciously glanced to both sides, surrounded by local soldiers wearing rattan armor and wallets.

Only a few people wear iron armor.

Even though he was among a group of soldiers, Kang Yao still felt uncomfortable when he saw Li Xuan approaching from a distance.

So murderous!

Kang Yao walked down the steps quickly, walked over to help Li Xuan hold the horse's rope, and then said respectfully: "Prince Qi, among the officials of the county government who were released home, there were five people from the Fa Cao who went out overnight.

There are three people in Cao Cao, one in Cang Cao, but there is no one in charge of the book."

Li Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, but then he suddenly came over, and while turning over and dismounting, he said: "It is enough for him to be the chief registrar. The other chief registrars, clerks, pawnbrokers, and clerks all obey his orders."

, he has made a decision, and with an order, everyone else must obey...or maybe the entire office of the Registrar is his, and they all know what to do when, so there is no need to mess around at all."

"This is terrible." The corners of Kang Yao's mouth twitched slightly, and his face looked very ugly.

"Let's talk about the evidence. If we find one, we will deal with it. If it is a fanatical believer of the Tianyin Sect, then we can only kill him as a warning to others." Li Xuan paused slightly as she walked in, her expression indifferent.

Kang Yao's face suddenly became very ugly.

If Li Xuan really followed what he said and did, there would be a sea of ​​people dead right now.

"Your Majesty, as well as the people in Dongyang City, there are many people who believe in Tianyin Goddess in recent years. I wonder if we can make some exceptions?" Kang Yao's face was very pleading.

Li Xuan glanced at Kang Yao in surprise, and finally shook his head and said: "Where did the county lieutenant think? I have never planned to kill people in Dongyang City. As for the ordinary people who believe in Tianyin Sect, the county

Don't worry, Lieutenant, it's just a small matter.

Perhaps for other people, it is indeed difficult to deal with a city full of people, but after all, I am a disciple of Taoism, and I have also learned the tricks of destroying mountains and temples, and prohibiting obscene sacrifices."

"Your Majesty is wise." Kang Yao finally reacted.

In this world, who can handle the issue of faith better than Buddhism and Taoism?

While talking, Li Xuan and Kang Yao had already entered the courtroom.

In the courtroom at this moment, many people were busy going back and forth without moving, holding files one after another in their hands and quickly placing them in front of County Magistrate Gu Tan.

Gu Tan reviewed it quickly and quickly signed the file and sent it away.

Li Xuan walked up to Gu Tan. When Gu Tan was about to stand up, Li Xuan waved her hand directly: "Forget it, you are busy with your business. Is it a big problem now?"

Gu Tan nodded and said with a serious face: "No small matter, the entire Hucao file has obviously been modified, involving many wealthy families in the city. The details are still unclear, but most of them involve the Liu family, a powerful local family.

In the past two years or so, the Liu family has occupied a lot of surrounding fields.

Especially in the past six months, the Liu family has been very active. It is said that they have loaned a lot of interest money to ordinary people, saying that they will wait until the summer harvest is over before letting the people pay it back. If they can't pay back, they will use Yongye Field to pay off the debt.

.”

Li Xuan nodded, and suddenly, he asked abruptly: "Liu family, do they have special help in the court?"

"It doesn't count." Gu Tan hesitated for a moment, but still said: "It is said that the Liu family and Liu Yizhi, a member of Zhongshushe, are Lian Zong."

"Lian Zong?" Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, then frowned and asked: "Is this nonsense or is it true? Have you ever said hello to Luoyang?"

Lianzong, people with the same surname but no clan relationship are considered to be members of the same family.

In this dynasty, the most famous person in Lienzong was Li Jingxuan, the Minister of Civil Affairs.

Li Jingxuan was born in Qiao County, Bozhou. He is connected to the Li family in Zhao County and even appears in the family tree of the Li family in Zhao County.

Gu Tan shook his head slowly: "I never said hello, but as soon as the news came out, the Liu family's children immediately started to show off. Maybe it's true."

"How can it be true?" Li Xuan sneered and said, "Liu Yizhi, the central minister, is from Jinling, Changzhou. Changzhou is only a short distance from Wuzhou. If there is really any news, I'm afraid there will be people in Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Do you know why it is so silent?"

At this point, Li Xuan snorted coldly: "This matter must be false. Someone dares to pretend to be a relative of a high-ranking member of the court... So, it just so happens that I am going to the Capital of Faith to report this matter to Your Majesty and the Queen.

.The county magistrate may not know something, but what your Majesty and the Queen hate the most is the local wealthy families that invade the people's fields."

"I understand, I understand, but Liu Gong, who lives in the middle school, is a bachelor of Beimen!" Gu Tan's face had become full of bitterness.

"It doesn't matter, this matter must be fake. I know it well." Li Xuan waved his hand nonchalantly.

But his heart felt really cold.

It would be fine if this was false, but if it were true, it would be exciting.

Bachelor Beimen is Empress Wu's most capable assistant. With Empress Wu's way of governing the country, she doesn't care how much or how little your private property is, but it must be acquired honestly.

She can give you a thousand hectares of land, but you cannot plunder half an acre from the people without authorization. The closer you are to the person, the stricter her requirements will be.

If we could find letters related to Liu Yizhi, it would not be possible to immediately dismiss him from office, but losing the trust of Empress Wu would be inevitable.

Without the trust of Empress Wu, the Beimen bachelor would be nothing more than a minor official of the fifth rank.

"This matter will be dealt with later. The most important thing at the moment is those county clerks. Where did they go after they left home?" Li Xuan's face became serious.

Although it was said that he had killed nearly thirty people in the ruined tower before, it was only thirty people.

Li Xuan didn't believe that there were only thirty of them on such a critical ground in Dongyang.

"The brothel, Li Chun Yuan in Yongxingfang." Gu Tan breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as you don't mention Zhongshu Sheren and Beimen Bachelor, everything is nothing.

After a slight pause, Gu Tan continued: "Several people left shortly after entering it, and they never went to other places after that."

"Yes!" Li Xuan nodded and said, "There is one thing. Last month, the central government issued an order to block and destroy possible underground passages. Have you done this?"

"It has been completed a long time ago." Kang Yao on the side immediately handed over his hand and said: "This matter was done by Bei Zhi and Xi Canjun together, and all possible entrances to the underground secret passages were completely destroyed.

Dongyang was formerly known as Hanning County and Wuning County. The city was built here during the reign of Emperor Xian of the late Han Dynasty. It has been nearly five hundred years ago. However, despite many years of war, it had little impact on Dongyang. Although there are some underground tunnels, there are not many.

In addition, due to the impact of rain, even less can be used..."

"That's not what I mean. What I mean is whether it is possible for the secret passage that you have sealed to be reopened, especially if there is such an entrance and exit near Lichun Courtyard." Li Xuan looked straight at it.

Seeing Kang Yao, there was also Xi Ying standing not far away.

When he was in Yangzhou, Li Xuan once encountered people from the Tianyin Sect who secretly opened a secret passage that was once closed. Now in Dongyang, he had to be on guard.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, there are no secret passages near Lichun Court, or even in the entire Yongxingfang." Kang Yao immediately handed over his hand in affirmation, and Xi Ying behind him also nodded subconsciously.

"Now, immediately send people to guard all the exits of the secret passages. If anyone finds anyone coming out, follow them immediately. Don't disturb them. If you find anything, report it immediately."

"Here!" Xi Ying immediately handed over his hand, then turned around to make arrangements.

"Your Majesty!" Kang Yao said with some worry: "Even though we move quickly tonight, it is inevitable that some fish will escape through the dark secret passage. Isn't it a little late? Do you want to leave the city immediately?"

…”

"No need, the soldiers under my command have sealed all the gates and bridge entrances in Dongyang County. Except for those who were deliberately let go, no one else can escape." Li Xuan's words made him

Kang Yao and Xi Ying could not help but tighten their eyes.

They have now somewhat understood the style of the King of Nanchang. They have planned in advance to block all internal and external traffic, and then massacre all the opponent's main forces they can find. Finally, they will release one or two hooks to see what big fish they can catch.

From Huang Ziming, to Li Dingyi, to the ancient pagoda by the lake, it is still the same now, and even in the future.

No matter what, a complete killing is inevitable in the end.

It's just that after this time, no one knows how many people will die in Dongyang City.

"Three things!" Li Xuan said, and Gu Tan and Kang Yao agreed at the same time. Li Xuan said with a serious face: "Tonight, try your best to eliminate all the Tianyin rebels in Dongyang City overnight, and then, tomorrow, summon all the families in Dongyang

The wealthy families, various aristocratic families, and local village elders have arranged for this year's summer harvest. No matter what, the summer harvest cannot be affected in the slightest. What's more, there is the recruitment of troops..."

Gu Tan and Kang Yao looked at each other with solemn expressions, and at the same time they cupped their hands and said, "Here!"
