Are you that easy to fool?
[It’s all done by my subordinates and has nothing to do with me] You dare to say this. Moreover, the villain complained first, saying that the county magistrate Cui Yue was aggressive.
How shameless.
Lawless guy.
Wu Nian was extremely angry and didn't speak for a long time. Liu Yichun, who was kneeling below, gradually felt chilled, and then his whole body became cold, as if he was in an extremely cold place, shivering.
At the same time, he was sweating profusely.
Wangfa.
The law of kings.
If the king helps him, everything will be easy to talk about.
But what if the sin is increased?
"Zhang Zhen." Wu Nian raised his head and said loudly to the palace door.
"General." Zhang Zhen immediately walked in from outside with a group of uniformed soldiers, bowed and saluted.
Wu Nian said: "Take him away immediately and send him to Cui Yue, the magistrate of Pyongyang. In addition, Lu Sheng, the governor of Youyan, is reported."
"Yes." Zhang Zhen glanced at Liu Yichun in surprise, what did this guy do? Then he responded without hesitation and stepped forward to capture Liu Yichun alive.
Liu Yichun was like a thunderbolt, and his whole body collapsed to the ground. But when Zhang Zhen caught others, he seemed to have returned to his former glory.
"General. General. This is a matter of the previous dynasty, General. In this dynasty, the common people abide by the law. General. General, please spare me."
Liu Yichun struggled and shouted. He fights back before death, and his strength is frightening. Although Zhang Zhen suppressed him, he still found him annoying, so he slashed Liu Yichun's neck with his knife.
Liu Yichun immediately rolled his eyes upward and then passed out.
Zhang Zhen was very satisfied and dragged Liu Yichun away like a dead dog.
After thinking for a moment, Wu Nian sent someone to summon Li Jinzhu.
Li Jinzhu was very puzzled. When he arrived, he asked cautiously: "Is it because of Liu Yichun's affairs that the general specially summoned my concubine?"
"Yes and no." Wu Nian shook his head, told the story again, and then asked Li Jinzhu: "Are there many such things in Goguryeo?"
"Many. Since ancient times, the bones of rich families have been frozen to death in the smell of wine and meat. No powerful family is particularly clean." Li Jinzhu was still cautious.
Wu Nian raised his head and looked at her. He wanted to say, "Then you just let it go?" But he soon realized that Li Jinzhu was the Queen Mother.
All forces must be taken into consideration, and it is unlikely to suppress the powerful and clan members.
Moreover, in the middle of the dynasty, it was also a common phenomenon for the powerful to run amok. It's just a matter of whether the crime is serious or not.
Killing people to seize land is considered a serious matter.
Wu Nian shook his head and waved Li Jinzhu down. After she walked slowly and twisted her plump buttocks, she went down.
Lu Sheng walked in from outside.
"General, what are your orders?" Lu Sheng stood still and immediately bowed and saluted.
"Do you know about Marquis Dingfang's affairs?" Wu Nian asked.
"Informed." Lu Sheng was very calm.
"Yeah." Wu Nian hummed, and then asked: "I just asked Mrs. Li. She said that in Goguryeo, it is very common for powerful families to bully others."
"The clan, the descendants of the founding heroes of the Jin Dynasty. They sit on countless fertile fields, and have accumulated so much wealth over the generations. They are surrounded by slaves and maids, and they are very powerful."
"Before this, I wanted to unite everyone. But now they are too powerful."
"And there's this kind of thing. They don't care about human life, I do."
"Execute Liu Yichun to a canonical sentence, and then behead him. Confiscate the Liu family's property, set an example, and then expand the scope. Investigate similar things. But don't throw dirty water and seek truth from facts."
"Don't frame people who have clean feathers or relatively clean feathers."
"First deal with the black sheep. Then you and Cui Wushuang will come forward. Call in those clean or relatively clean clans and dignitaries. Let them donate money, sell land, and liberate some slaves."
"If anyone refuses to obey the forces that suppress them, then their homes will be ransacked. Don't tolerate them."
Wu Nian's tone was cold, his eyes sharp and murderous.
Lu Sheng frowned when he heard this, but he did not dare to dissuade him. He just said cautiously: "Wouldn't this offend all the clan members and dignitaries?"
"The army is still in Goguryeo now. If our army leaves Goguryeo, they may cause rebellion."
"It doesn't matter. I have a backup plan." Wu Nian said calmly.
"Backhand?" Lu Sheng looked at Wu Nian in surprise.
"After suppressing the clans and dignitaries nationwide, we will summon village chiefs or famous people in the villages from all over Goguryeo, as well as influential local squires and powerful men to come to Pyongyang City. Before leaving Pyongyang City, I will There is a military parade outside the city."
"I want the Goguryeo people, no matter how remote, to know the military power of our Han Dynasty. Naturally, they will not dare to resist anymore."
"In this case, even if these dignitaries and clans have evil intentions, they can only keep it secret."
Wu Nian sneered and said.
"Military parade?!!!" Lu Sheng was surprised.
The chill on Wu Nian's face dissipated, he showed a hearty smile, nodded and said, "This is the idea I just thought of."
"If I make Pyongyang the capital, I can naturally deter Goguryeo. But now that I have made Jiang County the capital, the deterrence is not enough. So I might as well hold a military parade in Pyongyang City and go back to Jiang County to ascend the throne."
"How's it going? My idea is good, right?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Sheng immediately complimented: "General Shengming."
He's not all flattering either.
The soldiers of Liaodong are among the best in the world. The soldiers who are still gathering outside Pyongyang are so terrifying.
It will definitely shock everyone.
Village chief, a famous person in the village.
Country squire, powerful.
Everyone will tremble.
"In addition," Wu Nian added, "Although handling similar cases has offended the powerful and the clan, it has won the hearts and minds of the people. Moreover, Mr. Lu, don't forget it."
"I plan to dispatch 50,000 soldiers and their families. I don't know how to arrange them. The foundation of the Han people is land, and they can take root if they have land."
"For people like Liu Yichun, there was an abundance of fertile land. The homes of these criminal dignitaries and clans were confiscated, and the clean or relatively clean people were suppressed. The fertile land obtained, plus the land originally belonging to the King of Goguryeo, was more than enough to house 100,000 people. I can put the rest aside and continue to immigrate in the future.”
When Lu Sheng heard this, he immediately became happy and said, "General Shengming."
As the governor of Youyan, it is his unshirkable responsibility to settle the immigrants. I was worrying about this matter, but I didn't expect to have a sleepy pillow.
That's great.
With Liu Yichun in jail, the Liu family fell. Cui Yue's investigation was no longer hindered and progressed extremely smoothly.
And this is not the only thing Liu Yichun has done.
No. It's because there are so many crimes committed in Dingfanghou's family.
While suppressing the Goguryeo dignitaries and clans, the news that Wu Nian was going to hold a military parade in Pyongyang City spread immediately with Lu Sheng's actions.
Like a storm, it swept through the entire Goguryeo.
